[0046] The invention provides a wall-mounted air-conditioning indoor unit.

[0047] Reference Figures 1 to 8 In an embodiment of the present invention, the wall-mounted air-conditioning indoor unit includes a partition 10, a front panel 20 and a circuit board 31; the partition 10 has a first light-transmitting cavity 111 and a second light-transmitting cavity 112, the first light-transmitting cavity 111 is arranged around the periphery of the second light-transmitting cavity 112, and the first light-transmitting cavity 111 and the second light-transmitting cavity 112 both have a light inlet and a light outlet arranged oppositely; the front panel 20 is located on the light outlet side, and the front panel 20 has a plurality of display areas 22 corresponding to each of the light outlets; the circuit board 31 is located on the light inlet side, and a light-emitting component is provided on the surface of the circuit board 31 facing the front panel 20, and the light-emitting component includes a plurality of light sources corresponding to each of the light inlets. With such a configuration, by concentrating each display area 22, the area of ​​the circuit board 31 is reduced, which is conducive to reducing the manufacturing cost of the circuit board 31, and at the same time, facilitating the assembly of the circuit board 31 and improving the assembly efficiency.

[0048] The front panel 20, the partition 10 and the circuit board 31 are connected in sequence, wherein the light emitted by the light source on the circuit board 31 can pass through the first light-transmitting cavity 111 and the second light-transmitting cavity 112, and illuminate the corresponding display area 22 on the front panel 20. Since the first light-transmitting cavity 111 is arranged around the periphery of the second light-transmitting cavity 112, it can be understood that the display area 22 corresponding to the first light-transmitting cavity 111 is arranged around the periphery of the display area 22 corresponding to the second light-transmitting cavity 112. In this way, each display area 22 is concentrated in a preset area on the front panel 20, which is beneficial to reduce the user's visual The adjustment times of the field can also facilitate the simultaneous acquisition of the start-up conditions of the functional modules corresponding to each display area 22; the light source ring corresponding to the first light-transmitting cavity 111 is arranged on the periphery of the light source corresponding to the second light-transmitting cavity 112. In this way, compared with the need to use multiple circuit boards 31 for splicing and combination, or to set them at intervals due to the large lateral span of each light source and the need for avoidance, each light source is distributed in a ring shape and concentrated on a circuit board 31, which is conducive to reducing the area of ​​the circuit board 31, such as the lateral area in the longitudinal extension direction of the front panel 20, simplifying the overall assembly process, and reducing manufacturing costs. In addition, a first light-transmitting cavity 111 can be provided with multiple light sources to ensure the brightness and uniformity of the light in the corresponding display area 22. Similarly, a second light-transmitting cavity 112 can also be provided with multiple light sources.

[0049] The partition 10 and the front panel 20 can be connected by means of snapping, buckling, embedding, etc., to ensure that the transmitted light can be accurately projected to each display area 22, so as to highlight the working condition of the corresponding functional module, so as to facilitate the user to reliably obtain information, and control the opening and closing of each functional module and the adjustment of the gear position; the partition 10 and the circuit board 31 can be relatively fixed by connecting parts such as fasteners and bolts, so as to ensure that the light emitted by the light source on the circuit board 31 can accurately pass through the first light-transmitting cavity 111 and the second light-transmitting cavity 112. In this way, the working condition of each functional module can be accurately highlighted through the relative fixation of the front panel 20, the partition 10 and the circuit board 31.

[0050] In the technical solution of the present invention, the light emitted by the light source is used so that the light passing through the first light-transmitting cavity 111 and the second light-transmitting cavity 112 can be irradiated to each display area 22, wherein, since the first light-transmitting cavity 111 is arranged in a ring around the periphery of the second light-transmitting cavity 112, each display area 22 highlighted on the front panel 20 is concentrated in a preset area on the front panel 20. On the one hand, it is beneficial to reduce the number of times the user adjusts the field of view, and it is also convenient to simultaneously obtain the activation conditions of the functional modules corresponding to each display area 22; on the other hand, the light sources are distributed in a ring shape and concentrated on a circuit board 31, which is beneficial to reducing the area of ​​the circuit board 31, thereby simplifying the overall assembly process and reducing manufacturing costs.

[0051] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 7In one embodiment, the separator 10 includes a substrate 12, a plurality of partitions 13 and an outer ring plate 14, wherein the outer ring plate 14 is arranged at the periphery of the substrate 12 and is fixedly connected to the circuit board 31, and the plurality of partitions 13 are connected between the substrate 12 and the outer ring plate 14, and enclose a plurality of the first light-transmitting cavities 111, so that each first light-transmitting cavity 111 can be reliably separated, and then when the light emitted by the light source passes through the corresponding first light-transmitting cavity 111, the cooperation of the partition 13 and the outer ring plate 14 can block the light from entering other adjacent first light-transmitting cavities 111 and the outer area of ​​the outer ring plate 14, which is conducive to concentrating the light source and improving the display brightness, and facilitating the user's information acquisition. Among them, each partition 13 can be evenly spaced around the center of the substrate 12, and at the same time, it plays the role of a bridge connecting the substrate 12 and the outer ring plate 14, which is convenient for the assembly of the separator 10 as a whole, and is conducive to improving the assembly efficiency. The cross-sectional shape of the outer ring plate 14 can be circular, polygonal or irregular, preferably circular, so as to adapt to the change in the number of the first light-transmitting cavities 111 , improve versatility, and also facilitate the processing of the partition 10 .

[0052] The separator 10 is fixedly connected to the circuit board 31 through the outer ring plate 14. Figures 7 to 8 As shown, a plurality of connecting fasteners may be provided on the periphery of the outer ring plate 14, and connecting slots matching the connecting fasteners may be provided on the circuit board 31, so as to facilitate quick assembly of the partition 10 and the circuit board 31. However, the present application is not limited thereto. In one embodiment, the outer ring plate 14 and the circuit board 31 may be fixed to each other by means of, for example, bolting; in another embodiment, the partition 10 is fixed relative to the circuit board 31 through the base plate 12.

[0053] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the cavity wall of each of the first light-transmitting cavities 111 is a curved surface structure. Specifically, Figure 7 As shown, the outer peripheral surface of the substrate 12, the side wall of the partition 13 and the inner ring surface of the outer ring plate 14 that enclose the first light-transmitting cavity 111 are all light-facing surfaces. By setting the light-facing surface as a curved surface, a smaller number of light sources can evenly illuminate a larger display area 22, thereby ensuring the uniformity and brightness of the light in the display area 22.

[0054] The cavity walls of each second light-transmitting cavity 112 are arranged at an inclination. It can be understood that the cavity walls are arranged at an inclination toward the direction close to the front panel 20 and toward the direction close to the outer ring plate 14, which can play a magnifying role, so that the coverage area of ​​the light irradiated to the front panel 20 through the second light-transmitting cavity 112 is increased, thereby amplifying the window information and facilitating the user's acquisition.

[0055] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 7In one embodiment, the substrate 12 is provided with the second light-transmitting cavity 112, and the second light-transmitting cavity 112 includes at least one sub-light-transmitting cavity, wherein when a plurality of sub-light-transmitting cavities are provided, each sub-light-transmitting cavity can be arranged at intervals and construct a corresponding pattern, and the pattern can represent a number, a decimal point, etc., to meet the requirements of obtaining corresponding information. Specifically, the structure, size, and shape of each sub-light-transmitting cavity can be set according to requirements.

[0056] Optionally, in one embodiment, a first limiting structure 21 is provided on the surface of the front panel 20 facing the partition 10, and either the substrate 12 or the outer ring plate 14 is provided with a second limiting structure 121 that cooperates with the first limiting structure 21. Such a configuration is conducive to reliable alignment of the first light-transmitting cavity 111 with the corresponding display area 22, and reliable alignment of the second light-transmitting cavity 112 with the corresponding display area 22, thereby reducing the occurrence of display misalignment, incomplete display, etc. caused by assembly tolerances.

[0057] Reference Figure 4 In one embodiment, the second limiting structure 121 is arranged on the substrate 12, and at least one is arranged along the circumference of the substrate 12, wherein the first limiting structure 21 is arranged in plurality corresponding to the second limiting structure 121, and the coordination of the plurality of second limiting structures 121 and the plurality of first limiting structures 21 is helpful to improve the accuracy of alignment, as well as the efficiency of alignment, and can also improve the connection reliability and stability of the partition 10 and the front panel 20 by increasing the effective contact area between the substrate 12 and the front panel 20.

[0058] Combined with reference Figures 5 to 6 In one embodiment, the second limiting structure 121 is configured as either a limiting through hole or a limiting blind hole. When the second limiting structure 121 is configured as a limiting through hole, the first limiting structure 21 can be correspondingly configured as a limiting column, so that the limiting column can extend into or even pass through the limiting through hole to achieve the alignment of the substrate 12 and the front panel 20. At this time, fasteners such as bolts can be provided to connect with the threads in the limiting column to enhance the connection strength between the front panel 20 and the partition 10. Parts such as nuts can also be provided to connect with the threads on the outer surface of the limiting column to enhance the connection strength between the front panel 20 and the partition 10. Of course, other matching structures that can enhance the connection strength between the front panel 20 and the partition 10 are also applicable to the present application and are not limited here. When the second limiting structure 121 is configured as a limiting blind hole, the first limiting structure 21 can be correspondingly configured as a limiting column, so that the limiting column can extend into the limiting blind hole to achieve the alignment of the substrate 12 and the front panel 20. However, in other embodiments, the second limiting structure 121 may be configured as a limiting column, and the first limiting structure 21 may be configured as a limiting groove.

[0059] Furthermore, in one embodiment, three second limiting structures 121 are provided, and the three second limiting structures 121 are triangularly distributed. Through the triangular distribution of the three second limiting structures 121, the first light-transmitting cavity 111 and the second light-transmitting cavity 112 can be reliably aligned with the corresponding display area 22 to a certain extent, thereby reducing the occurrence of display misalignment, incomplete display, etc. caused by assembly tolerances. In addition, the triangular distribution, with the cooperation of the first limiting structure 21 and the second limiting structure 121, greatly improves the connection stability between the partition 10 and the front panel 20.

[0060] Among them, the three second limiting structures 121 can all be configured as limiting vias, or the three second limiting structures 121 can all be configured as limiting blind holes, or at least one of the three second limiting structures 121 can be configured as a limiting via, and the remaining second limiting structures 121 can be configured as limiting blind holes.

[0061] Reference Figures 4 to 7 In one embodiment, the wall-mounted air-conditioning indoor unit further includes a display box 32, which is used to fix the circuit board 31 and is provided with a third limiting structure 321 corresponding to the first limiting structure 21. With such a configuration, on the one hand, reliable alignment of the circuit board 31 and the front panel 20 is achieved, so that the light source on the circuit board 31 can be aligned with the set display area 22, thereby ensuring that the light emitted by the light source can irradiate the display area 22; on the other hand, protection of the circuit board 31 is achieved, damage to the circuit board 31 caused by external force is reduced, and the service life of the circuit board 31 is extended.

[0062] Among them, the circuit board 31 and the display can be relatively fixed by means of, for example, bolting, snapping, and buckling. The setting of the third limiting structure 321 on the display box 32 satisfies the alignment requirements of the display box 32 and the front panel 20. In other words, it satisfies the alignment requirements of the circuit board 31 and the front panel 20. In this way, the occurrence of display misalignment, incomplete display, etc. caused by assembly tolerance can be reduced.

[0063] Reference Figure 6 In one embodiment, the second limiting structure 121 is configured as a limiting via, the first limiting structure 21 is configured as a limiting column, and the third limiting structure 321 is configured as an installation via. The limiting column passes through the limiting via and the installation via in sequence. At this time, the installation via passes through the circuit board 31 to facilitate the passage of the limiting column.

[0064] Specifically, when the first limiting structure 21 is configured as a limiting column, the second limiting structure 121 is configured as a limiting through hole, and the third limiting structure 321 is configured as an installation through hole. At this time, the axis of the limiting through hole coincides with the axis of the installation through hole, which facilitates the insertion of the limiting column. By setting a threaded blind hole at the end of the limiting column and equipping it with fasteners such as bolts, which are threadedly connected to the threads in the limiting column, the connection strength between the front panel 20, the partition 10, the circuit board 31 and the display box 32 is enhanced. It is also possible to set a threaded groove on the outer surface of the limiting column and equip it with parts such as nuts, which are threadedly connected to the threads on the outer surface of the limiting column. The connection strength between the front panel 20, the partition 10, the circuit board 31 and the display box 32 can also be enhanced. Of course, other matching structures that can enhance the connection strength between the front panel 20, the partition 10, the circuit board 31 and the display box 32 are also applicable to the present application and are not limited here. However, in other embodiments, the second limiting structure 121 includes but is not limited to being configured as a limiting via, and the third limiting structure 321 includes but is not limited to being configured as a mounting via.

[0065] Combined with reference Figure 7 In one embodiment, the partition 10 further has a third light-transmitting cavity 113, and the third light-transmitting cavity 113 is arranged around the periphery of the plurality of first light-transmitting cavities 111, and has a light inlet and a light outlet arranged relatively. It can be understood that the display area 22 corresponding to the third light-transmitting cavity 113 is arranged around the periphery of the display area 22 corresponding to the first light-transmitting cavity 111, thereby limiting the area of ​​the total display area 22 on the front panel 20, that is, the area of ​​the preset area, thereby determining the user's field of view adjustment range and reducing the number of field of view adjustments.

[0066] Specifically, in one embodiment, the outer ring plate 14 is provided with the third light-transmitting cavity 113 along its circumference. It can be understood that the outer ring plate 14 includes two nested and spaced-apart annular plates, the two annular plates are connected, and the inner annular plate is connected to each partition plate 13, and the third light-transmitting cavity 113 is formed between the two annular plates. In this way, the light emitted by the light source corresponding to the third light-transmitting cavity 113 will be gathered under the action of the two annular plates and irradiated to the front panel 20.

[0067] Optionally, in one embodiment, the light source is configured as a first light source corresponding to the first light-transmitting cavity 111, and the first light source is located between the two adjacent partitions 13, and is arranged away from the two partitions 13, wherein the first light source can be composed of a plurality of lamp beads, and the first light source is arranged away from the partition 13, so that the light emitted by the first light source can be concentrated in the first light-transmitting cavity 111, that is, the light emitted by each first light source is concentrated in the corresponding first light-transmitting cavity 111. On the one hand, it can effectively reduce the possibility of mutual cross-reflection of light in each first light-transmitting cavity 111, and on the other hand, it is conducive to improving the brightness and uniformity of the display.

[0068] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the first light source is a monochrome LED lamp and is connected to a control module, wherein the control module is used to obtain the on / off status of the working mode of the wall-mounted air-conditioning indoor unit, and turn on or off the first light source according to the on / off status; the display area 22 corresponding to the first light source is configured as a first display area 221, and the first display area 221 is used to display the on / off status of each working mode of the wall-mounted air-conditioning indoor unit; each of the working modes is any five or more of humidity, wind speed, temperature, sterilization, purification or fresh air.

[0069] Specifically, the monochrome LED light can be an LED light of any color, such as a white LED light and a blue LED light. When the control module obtains that any working mode of humidity, wind speed, temperature, sterilization, purification or fresh air is in the on state, the corresponding first light source is controlled to be turned on. The light emitted by the first light source passes through the corresponding first light-transmitting cavity 111 and illuminates the corresponding first display area 221 on the front panel 20. At this time, the user can clearly observe and know the operation status of the corresponding function of the indoor unit and the current working status, which is conducive to improving the user experience and can also enhance the technological sense and viewing value of the indoor unit.

[0070] Optionally, in one embodiment, the light source is configured as a second light source corresponding to the second light-transmitting cavity 112, and the second light source may be composed of a plurality of lamp beads. Further, the second light source is a monochrome LED lamp and is connected to a control module, and the control module is used to obtain the on / off status of the conventional functions of the wall-mounted air-conditioning indoor unit, and turn on or off the second light source according to the on / off status; the display area 22 corresponding to the second light source is configured as a second display area 222, and the second display area 222 is used to display the on / off status of multiple conventional functions of the wall-mounted air-conditioning indoor unit; the multiple conventional functions are any three or more of temperature display, WIFI display, ECO display, and electric auxiliary heating display.

[0071] Specifically, the monochrome LED lamp can be an LED lamp of any color, such as a white LED lamp and a blue LED lamp. Then, when the control module obtains the temperature condition, the WIFI connection condition, the ECO on-off status, and the electric auxiliary heating on-off status, the corresponding second light source is controlled to turn on. The light emitted by the second light source passes through the corresponding second light-transmitting cavity 112 and illuminates the corresponding second display area 222 on the front panel 20. At this time, the user can clearly observe and know the operation status of the corresponding function of the indoor unit and the current working status, which is conducive to improving the user experience and can also enhance the sense of technology and viewing experience of the indoor unit.
