Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and more particularly to an air outlet structure, an air conditioner, and an air conditioning method. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, with rising ambient temperatures, more and more families rely on air conditioners to regulate indoor temperature. Air conditioner indoor units have air inlets and outlets, with a deflector at the outlet. To maintain aesthetics, designers have sometimes made the deflector on some air conditioners longer than the outlet, resulting in a false air outlet.

[0003] Because of the presence of false air vents, when the air conditioner is turned on, the air blowing out of the vents is at a lower temperature, while the indoor temperature has not yet dropped, easily causing condensation to form at the vents. If there is too much condensation, it will gather into water droplets, which can easily drip off or be blown out with the cold air, resulting in a poor user experience. Due to limitations in the structure and appearance of air conditioners, many air conditioners have false air vents. These false air vents cannot blow air, preventing the air conditioner from maximizing its airflow range and resulting in wasted space.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need for an air outlet structure that can solve the condensation problem caused by the false air outlet of the air conditioner and increase the air outlet area of ​​the air conditioner. Summary of the Invention

[0012] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the fragrance box has a purification groove on the side near the lid, and ventilation structures are provided at both ends of the purification groove. The purification groove is used to place materials that absorb fragrance and odor.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the air outlet structure further includes a duct, wherein a first end of the duct is connected to the first through hole and a second end of the duct is connected to the second through hole.

[0016] A third objective of this invention is to provide an air conditioning method, based on the aforementioned air conditioner, the method comprising:

[0017] Turn on the air conditioner and check if the air conditioner is in scene mode. If so, check if the user has modified the parameters of the scene mode.

[0018] If the user has modified the parameters of the scenario mode, then read the modified parameters;

[0019] Open the slot corresponding to the modified parameters to release the fragrance into the air;

[0020] Detect whether the fragrance concentration in the air is greater than the fragrance concentration threshold. If so, close the slot corresponding to the modified parameter.

[0038] Preferred embodiments of the invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While preferred embodiments of the invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the invention will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art.

[0039] Example 1

[0040] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides an air outlet structure 1, including an opening groove 11, a first through hole 111 is provided in the opening groove 11, and a first water outlet 112 is provided near the first through hole 111; a cover plate 12 is provided on the side of the opening groove 11 away from the first through hole 111, and an air outlet 121 is provided on the cover plate 12; a second through hole 131 is provided on the bottom shell sidewall 13 near the first through hole 111, the second through hole 131 communicates with the first through hole 111, and a baffle 14 is provided near the second through hole 131, the baffle 14 forming an angle with the bottom shell sidewall 13.

[0041] In this embodiment, the air outlet structure 1 is located at the dummy air outlet of an existing air conditioner. An opening groove 11 is formed at the dummy air outlet, and a first through hole 111 is formed in the opening groove 11. A second through hole 131 is formed in the side wall 13 of the bottom shell, connecting the first through hole 111 and the second through hole 131. The shaft of the baffle 14 cooperates with the side wall 13 of the bottom shell, and the baffle 14 and the side wall 13 of the bottom shell form a certain angle, which gathers the airflow near the baffle 14, so that the airflow flows from the second through hole 131 to the first through hole 111, thereby turning the dummy air outlet into a real air outlet.

[0042] When an air conditioner has a false air vent, condensation easily forms at the vent because the cold air blowing out is colder than the indoor air temperature when the air conditioner is turned on. Converting the false air vent into a true air vent solves the problem of condensation and also widens the air supply range, increasing the air outlet area of ​​the air conditioner.

[0043] Preferably, multiple air outlets 121 are provided, and the multiple air outlets 121 are evenly distributed on the cover plate 12. The size of the first through hole 111 can be the same as or different from the second through hole 131, which is not limited here. The multiple air outlets 121 evenly distributed on the cover plate 12 allow airflow to be blown out evenly from the multiple air outlets 121, avoiding concentrated cold air blowing out, which would reduce the user's experience.

[0044] The first through hole 111 and the second through hole 131 are connected by the conduit 16. The angle formed by the baffle 14 and the side wall 13 of the bottom shell can gather the airflow. The airflow flows into the conduit 16 from the second through hole 131, then into the first through hole 111 through the conduit 16, and finally into the opening slot 11 from the first through hole 111, and is blown out into the room from the air outlet 121 of the cover plate 12.

[0045] This embodiment provides an air outlet structure including an open slot 11, with a first through hole 111 inside the slot 11 and a first water outlet 112 near the first through hole 111. Due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the open slot 11, condensation will occur at the slot 11. The condensation flows out from the first water outlet 112, preventing excessive condensation from accumulating into water droplets, which are then blown out into the room by the cold air. A cover plate 12 is provided on the side of the open slot 11 away from the first through hole 111, and the cover plate 12 has an air outlet 121. A second through hole 131 is provided on the bottom shell sidewall 13 near the first through hole 111, communicating with the first through hole 111. A baffle 14 is provided near the second through hole 131, forming an angle with the bottom shell sidewall 13. Because there is an angle between the baffle 14 and the bottom shell side wall 13, the airflow near the baffle 14 is gathered, and then the gathered airflow is introduced into the second through hole 131 through the baffle 14, so that the airflow flows from the second through hole 131 to the first through hole 111. After the airflow flows out from the first through hole 111, it is blown into the room from the air outlet 121 of the cover plate 12, thereby converting the false air outlet into a true air outlet, solving the problem of condensation easily generated by the false air outlet, and expanding the air outlet area of ​​the air conditioner.

[0046] Example 2

[0047] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides an air outlet structure 1, including an opening groove 11, a first through hole 111 is provided in the opening groove 11, and a first water outlet 112 is provided near the first through hole 111; a cover plate 12 is provided on the side of the opening groove 11 away from the first through hole 111, and an air outlet 121 is provided on the cover plate 12; a second through hole 131 is provided on the bottom shell sidewall 13 near the first through hole 111, the second through hole 131 communicates with the first through hole 111, and a baffle 14 is provided near the second through hole 131, the baffle 14 forming an angle with the bottom shell sidewall 13.

[0048] A water collection trough 113 is provided inside the opening groove 11, and the water collection trough 113 is located between the cover plate 12 and the first through hole 111. The water collection trough 113 is inclined towards the first water outlet 112.

[0049] The first outlet 112 is located on the side of the water collection tank 113. The water collection tank 113 can be divided into two sections, both of which are inclined towards the middle, so that the condensation in the water collection tank 113 is collected to the first outlet 112 and discharged through the first outlet 112.

[0050] A water collection tank 113 is disposed within the open slot 11, located between the cover plate 12 and the first through hole 111. The water collection tank 113 is close to the first through hole 111 and the first outlet 112. Due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the open slot 11, condensation will occur at the open slot 11. The condensation generated in the open slot 11 drips or flows into the water collection tank 113, which collects the condensation, and the collected condensation is discharged from the first outlet 112.

[0051] The air outlet structure 1 also includes a duct 16, the first end of which is connected to the first through hole 111, and the second end of which is connected to the second through hole 131. The duct 16 is a hollow structure, and the airflow flowing into the second through hole 131 flows into the first through hole 111 through the duct 16.

[0052] A water-guiding rib 17 is provided near the baffle 14, and a second water outlet 132 is provided on the side wall 13 of the bottom shell. Due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the second through hole 131, condensation will appear on the side wall 13 of the bottom shell, and the condensation will flow downward along the side wall. Therefore, a water-guiding rib 17 is provided on the bottom shell air duct near the second through hole 131 to collect the condensation generated by the second through hole 131. The second water outlet 132 is provided on the side wall 13 of the bottom shell to discharge the condensation collected by the water-guiding rib 17, so as to avoid excessive condensation accumulating into water droplets and then being blown into the room by cold air, which would bring a poor experience to the user.

[0053] In this embodiment, the air outlet structure 1 has a water collection tank 113 located within the opening slot 11, between the cover plate 12 and the first through hole 111. The water collection tank 113 is inclined towards the first water outlet 112. The water collection tank 113 is divided into two ends, with the first through hole 111 located near the middle of the water collection tank 113. Both ends of the water collection tank 113 are inclined towards the first water outlet 112. Condensation generated in the opening slot 11 drips or flows into the water collection tank 113, which collects the condensation, which is then discharged from the first water outlet 112.

[0054] Example 3

[0055] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides an air outlet structure 1, including an opening groove 11, a first through hole 111 is provided in the opening groove 11, and a first water outlet 112 is provided near the first through hole 111; a cover plate 12 is provided on the side of the opening groove 11 away from the first through hole 111, and an air outlet 121 is provided on the cover plate 12; a second through hole 131 is provided on the bottom shell sidewall 13 near the first through hole 111, the second through hole 131 communicates with the first through hole 111, and a baffle 14 is provided near the second through hole 131, the baffle 14 forming an angle with the bottom shell sidewall 13.

[0056] like Figures 5-6 As shown, the air outlet structure 1 also includes an air conditioning device 15, which includes a fragrance box 151. The fragrance box 151 is disposed in the opening slot 11. The fragrance box 151 includes multiple slots 152, which are used to place different fragrances.

[0057] When air conditioners are used for extended periods, indoor air can become stuffy, and problems such as odors and poor air quality may occur. Therefore, air conditioners with fresh air functions have become popular in recent years. While these air conditioners can alleviate the problem of stuffy indoor air, they are unlikely to remove odors from the indoor air.

[0058] In this embodiment, the fragrance box 151 is equipped with four slots 152, namely slot 1, slot 2, slot 3, and slot 4. Slot 1 contains the first type of fragrance, slot 2 contains the second type of fragrance, slot 3 contains the third type of fragrance, and slot 4 contains the fourth type of fragrance. The four different fragrances can emit different scents into the room.

[0059] The cover plate 12 is provided with a box cover 122, which is used to open or close the fragrance box 151. The fragrance box 151 has a purification groove 158 on the side near the box cover 122. The purification groove 158 is provided with ventilation structures 159 at both ends. The purification groove 158 is used to place materials that absorb fragrance and odor.

[0060] When the cover 122 is closed, it blocks the purification tank 158; when the cover 122 is open, the purification tank 158 is connected to the indoor environment. During air conditioner use, the purification tank 158 absorbs some fragrance factors from the indoor air, thus maintaining the fragrance of the indoor air. When the air conditioner is not in use, if there is an odor in the indoor air, the odor factors enter the opening slot 11 through the air outlet 121 on the cover 12, and then enter the purification tank 158 through the ventilation structures 159 at both ends of the purification tank 158. The material placed in the purification tank 158 absorbs the odor factors, thereby removing odors from the indoor air.

[0061] Preferably, after the material in the purification tank 158 has been used for a period of time, the material in the purification tank 158 is replaced with clean material, thereby ensuring that the material in the purification tank 158 has good adsorption capacity. The purification tank 158 can maintain the fragrance of indoor air and remove odors from indoor air.

[0062] In this embodiment, the ventilation structures 159 at both ends of the purification tank 158 are used as ventilation holes as an example. Multiple ventilation holes are provided at both ends of the purification tank 158, and the number of ventilation holes is not limited here. By providing ventilation holes at both ends of the purification tank 158, airflow can be ensured between the opening slot 11 and the purification tank 158, thereby increasing the adsorption capacity of the purification tank 158 for fragrance and odor factors.

[0063] The fragrance box 151 has multiple baffles 153 on its outer side, each baffle 153 corresponding to a slot 152; each baffle 153 includes a blocking part 1531 and an extension part 1532, the blocking part 1531 is disposed close to the slot 152, the extension part 1532 is provided with a magnetic component 154, and an electromagnet 155 is disposed on the side wall of the fragrance box 151 near each magnetic component 154; the extension part 1532 is provided with a fixing member 156, and a fixing shaft 157 is disposed in the shaft hole of the fixing member 156.

[0064] The baffle 153 has an L-shaped bent structure, including a blocking part 1531 and an extension part 1532. The blocking part 1531 blocks the corresponding slot, and the extension part 1532 is provided with a magnetic component 154. Under the attraction of the electromagnet 155, the magnetic component 154 can drive the blocking part 1531 to open the corresponding slot, allowing the fragrance inside the slot to be released. In this embodiment, four baffles 153 are used as an example. The first baffle 153 corresponds to the first slot, the second baffle 153 corresponds to the second slot, the third baffle 153 corresponds to the third slot, and the fourth baffle 153 corresponds to the fourth slot.

[0065] The extension 1532 extends relative to the purification tank 158, and a magnetic component 154 is provided at the end of the extension 1532. In this embodiment, the magnetic component 154 is a magnet. A total of 4 magnets and 4 electromagnets 155 are provided. Each electromagnet 155 is located close to a magnet and is fixed to the side wall of the fragrance box 151.

[0066] The extension 1532 is provided with a fixing member 156, which has a shaft hole. The fixing shaft 157 passes through the shaft hole and can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise around the axis of the fixing member 156.

[0067] The fragrance box 151 also includes a return spring, which is L-shaped. The first end of the return spring is connected to the side wall of the fragrance box 151, and the second end is connected to the extension 1532 of the baffle 153. When the electromagnet 155 is not energized, the return spring is in its natural state, and the blocking portion 1531 of the baffle 153 blocks the fragrance opening of the corresponding compartment under the force of the spring. When the electromagnet 155 is energized, i.e., when the electromagnet 155 is at a high level, the magnet is attracted by the electromagnet 155, causing the extension 1532 of the baffle 153 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby compressing the return spring. The counterclockwise rotation of the extension 1532 of the baffle 153 causes the blocking portion 1531 of the baffle 153 to rotate counterclockwise, opening the fragrance opening of the corresponding compartment and allowing the fragrance inside the compartment to diffuse.

[0068] As an example, there are a total of 4 control lines: line 1 controls the first electromagnet, line 2 controls the second electromagnet, line 3 controls the third electromagnet, and line 4 controls the fourth electromagnet. When line 1 is at a high level, lines 2, 3, and 4 are all at a low level. At this time, the magnet of the extension 1532 of the first baffle 153 is attracted by the first electromagnet, causing the extension 1532 of the first baffle to rotate counterclockwise. This, in turn, causes the blocking part 1531 of the first baffle to rotate counterclockwise, thereby opening the fragrance vent of the first slot and releasing the first fragrance into the indoor air.

[0069] In this embodiment, the air outlet structure 1 has multiple baffles 153 on its outer side of the fragrance box 151, each baffle 153 corresponding to a slot 152. Each baffle 153 includes a blocking portion 1531 and an extension portion 1532. The blocking portion 1531 is disposed close to the slot 152, and the extension portion 1532 is provided with a magnetic component 154. An electromagnet 155 is disposed on the side wall of the fragrance box 151 near each magnetic component 154. A fixing member 156 is provided on the extension portion 1532, and a fixing shaft 157 is disposed in the shaft hole of the fixing member 156. When the selected electromagnet 155 is energized, it is at a high level, attracting the extension portion 1532 of the corresponding baffle 153. This causes the extension portion 1532 and the blocking portion 1531 of the corresponding baffle 153 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby opening the fragrance outlet of the corresponding slot 152. After the fragrance vent is opened, the fragrance in slot 152 is released into the indoor air, thereby regulating the indoor air quality.

[0070] Example 4

[0071] like Figure 7 As shown, this embodiment provides an air conditioner, including a panel body 4. The panel body 4 has an air outlet structure 1 in any one of the embodiments 1-3. The panel body 4 also has an air supply port 2, and an air guide plate 3 is provided near the air supply port 2.

[0072] Air outlet structure 1 is positioned near air outlet 2, and is derived from a structural adjustment of a dummy air outlet. The air conditioner has an air inlet and an air outlet, with a guide vane 3 at the air outlet. Air ducts are installed within both the air inlet and outlet. Rotating fan blades blow the cooled air from the air conditioner into the room, and the guide vane 3 adjusts the angle of the cooled air. The guide vane 3 fits into the bottom casing. To maintain the air conditioner's aesthetics, the length of the guide vane 3 on some air conditioners is longer than the length of the air outlet, creating a dummy air outlet on the bottom casing. The dummy air outlet does not emit air, while air outlet structure 1 does.

[0073] In this embodiment, the air conditioner uses an air outlet structure 1 to replace the dummy air outlet, which can solve the problem of condensation caused by the dummy air outlet and also expand the air outlet area of ​​the air conditioner.

[0074] Example 5

[0075] This embodiment provides an air conditioning method based on the air conditioner in Embodiment 4. The method includes:

[0076] S1: Turn on the air conditioner and check if the air conditioner is in scene mode. If so, check if the user has modified the parameters of the scene mode.

[0077] Air conditioners offer two modes for regulating indoor air quality: scenario mode and custom mode. Scenario mode has four different configurations: Romantic, Natural, Learning, and Sleep. Each mode uses a different fragrance, allowing users to change the scent according to their needs. For example, Romantic mode uses a rose fragrance, Natural mode uses a woody fragrance, Learning mode uses an orange fragrance, and Sleep mode uses a lavender fragrance.

[0078] After the air conditioner is turned on, if it detects that the user has selected a scene mode, it will determine whether the user has modified the parameters of the scene mode.

[0079] The parameters for the scene mode include the number of the open slot and the fragrance concentration threshold.

[0080] S2: If the user has modified the parameters of the scenario mode, then read the modified parameters.

[0081] As an example, the user changes the parameter of the third scenario mode from opening the first slot to opening the second slot, and changes the fragrance concentration threshold from Q... t Change to Q' t Store the modified slot 152 and the modified fragrance concentration threshold, and read the modified slot 152 and the modified fragrance concentration threshold.

[0082] S3: Open the slot corresponding to the modified parameters to release the fragrance into the air.

[0083] Power is supplied to the corresponding electromagnet 155 according to the modified parameters of slot 152, so that the corresponding electromagnet 155 is at a high level, attracting the extension 1532 of the corresponding baffle 153. The extension 1532 of the corresponding baffle 153 drives the blocking part 1531 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby opening the fragrance port of slot 152 with modified parameters and releasing the fragrance into the indoor air.

[0084] S4: Detect whether the fragrance concentration in the air is greater than the fragrance concentration threshold. If so, close the slot corresponding to the modified parameter.

[0085] A fragrance concentration detector is installed at the air inlet of the air conditioner. When the fragrance concentration detector detects that the fragrance concentration Q in the indoor air is greater than the fragrance concentration threshold, it provides a low level to the corresponding electromagnet 155, causing the electromagnet 155 to lose its magnetism. The corresponding magnetic component 154 then disengages from the electromagnet 155. During the disengagement process, the extension 1532 of the corresponding baffle 153 causes the blocking part 1531 to rotate clockwise, blocking the fragrance outlet of the corresponding slot 152, thereby closing the corresponding slot 152 and stopping the fragrance from diffusing outward.

[0086] After detecting whether the air conditioner is in scene mode, the method further includes:

[0087] S21': If the user has not modified the parameters of the scenario mode, then read the preset parameters.

[0088] S22': Open the slot corresponding to the preset parameter to release the fragrance into the air.

[0089] S23': Detect whether the fragrance concentration in the air is greater than the fragrance concentration threshold. If not, keep the slot corresponding to the preset parameter open.

[0090] If the user has not modified the scene mode parameters, a high level is provided to the corresponding electromagnet 155 according to the read preset parameters, making the electromagnet 155 magnetic. Under the action of the electromagnet 155, the corresponding magnetic component 154 is attracted, causing the extension 1532 and the blocking part 1531 of the corresponding baffle 153 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby opening the fragrance vent of the corresponding slot 152 and dispersing the fragrance into the indoor air. As the fragrance concentration in the indoor air continuously increases, if the fragrance concentration in the indoor air exceeds the fragrance concentration threshold, a low level is provided to the corresponding electromagnet 155 to close the fragrance vent of the corresponding slot 152. If the fragrance concentration in the indoor air is less than or equal to the fragrance concentration threshold, a high level is continuously provided to the corresponding electromagnet 155 to keep the fragrance vent of the slot 152 corresponding to the preset parameters open, continuously dispersing fragrance into the indoor air until the fragrance concentration in the indoor air exceeds the fragrance concentration threshold, at which point the fragrance vent of the corresponding slot 152 is closed.

[0091] After detecting whether the air conditioner is in scene mode, the method further includes:

[0092] S21”: If the air conditioner is in custom mode, then obtain the slot selected by the user and the fragrance concentration threshold.

[0093] S22”: Control the fragrance concentration in the air according to the slot selected by the user and the fragrance concentration threshold.

[0094] If the air conditioner is in custom mode, the user selects slot 152 and fragrance concentration threshold in the settings interface. Based on the user-selected slot 152 and fragrance concentration threshold, a high-level signal is supplied to the corresponding electromagnet 155, opening the fragrance vent of the corresponding slot 152 and allowing the fragrance to diffuse into the indoor air.

[0095] Turn on the fragrance concentration detector to detect the fragrance concentration in the indoor air. If the fragrance concentration in the indoor air is greater than the fragrance concentration threshold, close the fragrance vent of the corresponding slot 152. If the fragrance concentration in the indoor air is less than or equal to the fragrance concentration threshold, keep the fragrance vent of the corresponding slot 152 open and continue to diffuse fragrance into the indoor air until the fragrance concentration in the indoor air is greater than the fragrance concentration threshold, then close the fragrance vent of the corresponding slot 152.

[0096] This embodiment provides an air conditioning method. When the air conditioner is in scene mode, it detects whether the user has modified the scene mode parameters. If modified, the modified parameters are read; if not modified, preset parameters are read. Based on the modified or preset parameters, the corresponding slot 152 is opened to release fragrance into the indoor air. The fragrance concentration in the indoor air is detected. If the fragrance concentration is greater than a fragrance concentration threshold, the corresponding slot 152 is closed; if the fragrance concentration is less than or equal to the fragrance concentration threshold, the corresponding slot 152 remains open. By controlling the opening or closing of the corresponding slot 152 according to the fragrance concentration in the indoor air, the fragrance concentration in the indoor air can be controlled, thereby improving the indoor air quality.
