Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and more specifically, to a cabinet air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, their functional requirements for air conditioner cabinet units are increasing. Sliding doors, as a common functional structure of air conditioner cabinet units, are used to cover the air outlet when the air conditioner cabinet unit is off. When the sliding door is open, there will be a gap at the top of the air outlet, which can easily lead to air leakage, resulting in a reduction in the air volume of the air conditioner, affecting the performance of the air conditioner, and also affecting the overall aesthetics of the air conditioner. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of this, the present invention aims to propose an air conditioner cabinet unit to solve the problem in the prior art that when the sliding door is opened, there is a gap at the top of the air outlet, which easily leads to air leakage, resulting in a decrease in the air volume of the air conditioner, affecting the performance of the air conditioner, and also affecting the overall aesthetics of the air conditioner.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is implemented as follows:

[0005] An air conditioner cabinet unit includes:

[0006] The unit body is provided with an air outlet, and a sliding door is provided at the air outlet. The sliding door can move to the left and right to block the air outlet when the air conditioner is turned off.

[0007] The upper part of the body is provided with a drive gear, and the rear end of the sliding door is provided with a first rack. The drive gear and the first rack mesh to drive the sliding door to move in the left and right directions.

[0008] An installation groove is provided on the upper side of the air outlet, and a baffle is provided in the installation groove. A second rack is provided at the rear end of the baffle. The drive gear and the second rack mesh to drive the baffle to move in the front-back direction of the installation groove, thereby blocking the gap on the upper side of the air outlet.

[0009] The air conditioner cabinet unit described in this application allows the baffle to move in the front-to-back direction as the sliding door opens or closes. This facilitates the covering of the gap at the top of the air outlet, preventing air leakage, reducing the attenuation of the air conditioning air volume, improving the performance and overall aesthetics of the air conditioner, and also facilitates the movement of the sliding door.

[0010] Furthermore, the upper end of the first rack is provided with a gradient boss, the height of which gradually increases from left to right. The second rack is located on the upper side of the gradient boss and intersects with the gradient boss. When the left end of the gradient boss abuts with the second rack, the second rack meshes with the drive gear. When the right end of the gradient boss abuts with the second rack, the second rack is located on the upper side of the drive gear and disengages from the drive gear.

[0011] This setup creates a linkage between the baffle and the sliding door. When the sliding door is closed, the baffle retracts; when the sliding door is opened, the baffle extends to block the gap at the top of the air outlet.

[0012] Furthermore, the upper end of the machine body is provided with a first slide rail, and the lower end of the first rack is provided with a first slide groove. The first slide rail is installed in the first slide groove, so that the first rack can move in the left and right directions relative to the first slide rail.

[0013] This configuration enhances the stability of the first rack during movement.

[0014] Furthermore, the upper end of the sliding door is provided with a second sliding groove, and the upper end of the baffle is provided with a second sliding rail. The second sliding rail is installed in the second sliding groove, so that the sliding door can move relative to the baffle in the left and right directions.

[0015] This design enhances the stability of the sliding door when it moves.

[0016] Furthermore, the width of the second slide groove is X1, the width of the second slide rail is X2, and the maximum moving distance of the baffle in the front-back direction is X3, where X1-X2=X3.

[0017] This design facilitates the movement of the baffle in the forward and backward directions and also enhances the compactness of the structure between the baffle and the sliding door.

[0018] Furthermore, the rear sidewall of the second slide is provided with a clearance groove, through which the second rack passes.

[0019] This configuration facilitates the movement of the second slide relative to the second rack in the left and right directions.

[0020] Furthermore, a limiting block is provided on the upper part of the machine body to limit the second rack in the left and right directions. The limiting block includes a first limiting block and a second limiting block, and the second rack is located between the first limiting block and the second limiting block.

[0021] This setup ensures that the second rack is always in the set position and maintains good meshing with the drive gear, allowing the baffle to move stably in the forward and backward directions.

[0022] Furthermore, the drive gear is located behind the first slide rail and to the right of the second rack.

[0023] This configuration allows the drive gear to mesh with both the first and second racks simultaneously, enabling the first and second racks to move in tandem. It also improves the compactness of the transmission structure and reduces the space required.

[0024] Furthermore, the limiting block is located on the rear side of the first slide rail, the first limiting block is located on the left side of the second rack, the second limiting block is located on the right side of the second rack, the length of the second limiting block is less than the length of the first limiting block, and the second limiting block is located on the rear side of the drive gear.

[0025] This configuration not only enhances the limiting effect on the second rack but also avoids the drive gear, allowing the drive gear to mesh with both the first and second racks simultaneously, further improving the compactness of the transmission structure.

[0026] Furthermore, the projections of the sliding door and the baffle on the horizontal plane are both arc-shaped.

[0027] This design allows for a better fit to the shape of the air conditioner unit, facilitating its production and assembly, while also enhancing its overall aesthetics.

[0028] Compared with existing technologies, the air conditioner cabinet unit described in this invention has the following advantages:

[0029] The baffle moves back and forth as the sliding door opens or closes, which not only helps to cover the gap at the top of the air outlet to prevent air leakage, reduce the attenuation of air conditioning air volume, improve the performance and overall appearance of the air conditioner, but also facilitates the movement of the sliding door.

[0045] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0046] Example 1

[0047] like Figure 1-13 As shown, an air conditioner cabinet unit includes:

[0048] The unit 1 is provided with an air outlet 2 and a sliding door 3 is provided at the air outlet 2. The sliding door 3 can move to the left and right to block the air outlet 2 when the air conditioner is turned off.

[0049] The upper part of the body 1 is provided with a drive gear 4, and the rear end of the sliding door 3 is provided with a first rack 51. The drive gear 4 and the first rack 51 mesh to drive the sliding door 3 to move in the left and right directions.

[0050] An installation groove 6 is provided on the upper side of the air outlet 2. A baffle 7 is provided in the installation groove 6. A second rack 52 is provided at the rear end of the baffle 7. The drive gear 4 and the second rack 52 mesh to drive the baffle 7 to move in the front-back direction of the installation groove 6, thereby blocking the gap on the upper side of the air outlet 2.

[0051] Specifically, when the air conditioner unit is turned on, the drive gear 4 reverses direction. The drive gear 4 drives the sliding door 3 to move to the right via the first rack 51, opening the sliding door 3. At the same time, the drive gear 4 drives the baffle 7 to move forward via the second rack 52. When the sliding door 3 is fully open, the baffle 7 moves forward to the set position, blocking the gap on the upper side of the air outlet 2. When the air conditioner unit is turned off, the drive gear 4 rotates forward. The drive gear 4 drives the sliding door 3 to move to the left via the first rack 51, closing the sliding door 3. Meanwhile, the drive gear 4 drives the baffle 7 to move backward through the second rack 52, so as to avoid the sliding door 3 from colliding with the baffle 7 when it moves to the left. When the sliding door 3 is fully closed, the baffle 7 moves backward to the set position and retracts completely. This setting allows the baffle 7 to move in the front and back directions as the sliding door 3 opens or closes, which not only makes it easy to cover the gap at the top of the air outlet 2 to prevent air leakage, reduce the attenuation of the air conditioning air volume, improve the performance of the air conditioner and the overall aesthetics of the air conditioner, but also facilitates the movement of the sliding door 3.

[0052] As a preferred example of the present invention, the upper end of the first rack 51 is provided with a gradient boss 8, the height of the gradient boss 8 gradually increases from left to right, the second rack 52 is located on the upper side of the gradient boss 8, the second rack 52 intersects with the gradient boss 8, when the left end of the gradient boss 8 abuts with the second rack 52, the second rack 52 meshes with the drive gear 4, when the right end of the gradient boss 8 abuts with the second rack 52, the second rack 52 is located on the upper side of the drive gear 4, and the second rack 52 and the drive gear 4 disengage.

[0053] Specifically, when the air conditioner unit is turned off, the drive gear 4 reverses direction. The drive gear 4 drives the sliding door 3 to move to the left via the first rack 51. The first rack 51 moves to the left synchronously with the sliding door 3. The drive gear 4 drives the baffle 7 to move backward and gradually retract via the second rack 52. As the first rack 51 gradually moves to the left, the height of the contact point between the gradient boss 8 and the second rack 52 also gradually increases. When the height of the lower end face of the second rack 52 exceeds the height of the upper end face of the drive gear 4, the second rack 52 disengages from the drive gear 4. At this time, the sliding door 3 is completely closed, and the baffle 7 also moves backward and is completely retracted. When the air conditioner unit is turned on, the drive gear 4 rotates forward. The drive gear 4 drives the sliding door 3 to move to the left via the first rack 51. 51 drives the sliding door 3 to move to the right, and the first rack 51 moves to the right synchronously with the sliding door 3. As the first rack 51 gradually moves to the right, the height of the contact point between the gradient boss 8 and the second rack 52 also gradually decreases. When the height of the lower end face of the second rack 52 is lower than the height of the upper end face of the drive gear 4, the second rack 52 and the drive gear 4 begin to mesh. At this time, the drive gear 4 drives the baffle 7 to move forward and gradually push it out through the second rack 52. When the sliding door 3 is fully opened, the baffle 7 also moves forward and is fully pushed out. This setting creates a linkage between the baffle 7 and the sliding door 3. When the sliding door 3 is closed, the baffle 7 retracts. When the sliding door 3 is opened, the baffle 7 pushes out to block the gap at the upper end of the air outlet 2.

[0054] As a preferred example of the present invention, the upper end of the body 1 is provided with a first slide rail 11, the lower end of the first rack 51 is provided with a first slide groove, and the first slide rail 11 is installed in the first slide groove so that the first rack 51 can move relative to the first slide rail 11 in the left and right directions.

[0055] Specifically, when the sliding door 3 moves in the left and right directions, the first rack 51 moves synchronously with the sliding door 3 along the first slide rail 11. This arrangement enhances the stability of the first rack 51 during movement.

[0056] As a preferred example of the present invention, the upper end of the sliding door 3 is provided with a second slide groove 32, and the upper end of the baffle 7 is provided with a second slide rail 72. The second slide rail 72 is installed in the second slide groove 32, so that the sliding door 3 can move relative to the baffle 7 in the left and right directions.

[0057] Specifically, the sliding door 3 moves along the second slide rail 72 on the baffle 7, which enhances the stability of the sliding door 3 during movement.

[0058] As a preferred example of the present invention, the width of the second slide groove 32 is X1, the width of the second slide rail 72 is X2, the maximum moving distance of the baffle 7 in the front-back direction is X3, and X1-X2=X3.

[0059] Specifically, when the air conditioner unit is turned on, the sliding door 3 opens and the baffle 7 moves forward. At this time, the front end face of the second slide rail 72 abuts against the front side wall of the second slide groove 32, and the distance between the rear end face of the second slide rail 72 and the rear side wall of the second slide groove 32 is X3. When the air conditioner unit is turned off, the sliding door 3 closes and the baffle 7 moves backward. At this time, the rear end face of the second slide rail 72 abuts against the rear side wall of the second slide groove 32, and the distance between the front end face of the second slide rail 72 and the front side wall of the second slide groove 32 is X3. This arrangement facilitates the movement of the baffle 7 in the front and rear directions and also enhances the compactness of the structure between the baffle 7 and the sliding door 3.

[0060] As a preferred example of the present invention, the rear sidewall of the second slide groove 32 is provided with a clearance groove, and the second rack 52 passes through the clearance groove.

[0061] Specifically, when the sliding door 3 moves in the left and right direction relative to the baffle 7, this arrangement facilitates the movement of the second slide rail 32 in the left and right direction relative to the second rack 52.

[0062] As a preferred example of the present invention, a limiting block 12 is provided on the upper part of the body 1 for limiting the second rack 52 in the left and right directions. The limiting block 12 includes a first limiting block 121 and a second limiting block 122, and the second rack 52 is located between the first limiting block 121 and the second limiting block 122.

[0063] Specifically, this configuration ensures that the second rack 52 is always in the set position and maintains good meshing with the drive gear 4, so that the baffle 7 can move stably in the front and back directions.

[0064] As a preferred example of the present invention, the drive gear 4 is located on the rear side of the first slide rail 11 and on the right side of the second rack 52.

[0065] Specifically, this configuration enables the drive gear 4 to mesh with the first rack 51 and the second rack 52 simultaneously, achieving linkage between the first rack 51 and the second rack 52. It also improves the compactness of the transmission structure and reduces the space occupied.

[0066] As a preferred example of the present invention, the limiting block 12 is located on the rear side of the first slide rail 11, the first limiting block 121 is located on the left side of the second rack 52, the second limiting block 122 is located on the right side of the second rack 52, the length of the second limiting block 122 is less than the length of the first limiting block 121, and the second limiting block 122 is located on the rear side of the drive gear 4.

[0067] Specifically, this arrangement not only enhances the limiting effect on the second rack 52, but also avoids the drive gear 4, allowing the drive gear 4 to mesh with both the first rack 51 and the second rack 52 simultaneously, further improving the compactness of the transmission structure.

[0068] As a preferred example of the present invention, the projections of the sliding door 3 and the baffle 7 on the horizontal plane are both arc-shaped.

[0069] Specifically, this design better fits the shape of the air conditioner unit, facilitating its production and assembly, while also improving the overall aesthetics of the air conditioner.

[0070] In summary, the air conditioner cabinet unit described in this application has the following advantages compared with the prior art: the baffle 7 moves in the front and back direction as the sliding door 3 opens or closes, which not only makes it easier to cover the gap at the top of the air outlet 2, avoid air leakage, reduce the attenuation of air conditioning air volume, improve the performance of the air conditioner and the overall aesthetics of the air conditioner, but also facilitates the movement of the sliding door 3.

[0071] While the present invention has been disclosed above, it is not limited thereto.
