[0039] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0040] Hereinafter, an air conditioner 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0041] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the air conditioner 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes an air conditioner body 10 and a disinfection device 20 .
[0042] The air conditioner body 10 has an air outlet channel 11, and the length direction of the cross-section of the air outlet channel 11 is a first direction. The air conditioner body 10 includes an air guide assembly 12, and the air guide assembly 12 is arranged in the air outlet channel 11. The air guide assembly 12 includes a plurality of swingable air guide blades 121, and the plurality of air guide blades 121 are arranged at intervals along the first direction. By adjusting the swinging direction of the plurality of air guide blades 121, the flow direction of the air in the air outlet channel 11 can be adjusted, so that the air in the air outlet channel 11 can flow to a designated area along the air guide blades 121.
[0043] The disinfection device 20 is arranged on the air conditioner body 10, and the disinfection device 20 includes a plurality of discharge parts 21. The plurality of discharge parts 21 are arranged in the air outlet channel 11, and the plurality of discharge parts 21 are arranged at intervals along the first direction. The discharge parts 21 can form ions for disinfection in the air outlet channel 11. On the one hand, the air in the air outlet channel 11 can be disinfected to provide clean air for the designated area. On the other hand, the ions used for disinfection can flow to the designated area together with the air to sterilize the designated area, so as to ensure the cleanliness of the environment in the designated area.
[0044] Among them, multiple discharge parts 21 are set, and the multiple discharge parts 21 are arranged at intervals along the first direction, so as to be able to evenly generate enough ions for disinfection in the air outlet channel 11, thereby expanding the disinfection range of the disinfection device 20 and improving the disinfection efficiency of the disinfection device 20.
[0045] Each discharge portion 21 is staggered with the air guide vane 121 to reserve sufficient space for the discharge portion 21. Specifically, under the action of the discharge portion 21, ions for sterilization will be formed near it, so that the discharge portion 21 and the air guide vane 121 are staggered to avoid the ions near the discharge portion 21 from accumulating on the air guide vane 121, so that the ions can smoothly sterilize the air in the air outlet channel 11, and the ions can sterilize the designated area, so as to improve the disinfection efficiency of the disinfection device 20.
[0046] In addition, when too many ions accumulate near the discharge section 21, the discharge voltage at the discharge section 21 will become lower, affecting the efficiency of ion formation at the discharge section 21. Therefore, the discharge section 21 and the guide vanes 121 are staggered to ensure the voltage balance at the discharge section 21, so that the discharge section 21 can smoothly form ions near it, thereby ensuring the disinfection efficiency of the disinfection device 20.
[0047] Therefore, the air conditioner 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention utilizes the disinfection device 20 to sterilize the air in the air outlet channel 11 and the designated area to ensure the cleanliness of the air, while preventing the ions generated by the disinfection device 20 from accumulating on the air guide blades 121, thereby ensuring the sterilization efficiency of the disinfection device 20.
[0048] The air conditioner 1 according to a specific embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
[0049] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the air conditioner 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes an air conditioner body 10 and a disinfection device 20 .
[0050] In some embodiments of the present invention, the disinfection device 20 includes a plasma generator. After the plasma generator is powered on, a strong electric field is generated at the discharge part 21. The generated strong electric field ionizes the surrounding air, thereby generating positive ions and negative ions. The generated positive ions and negative ions generate huge energy release at the moment of neutralization of positive and negative charges in the air, causing the surrounding bacterial structure to change and the surrounding bacteria to die, thereby achieving a sterilization effect to sterilize the air in the air outlet channel 11.
[0051] At the same time, the positive ions and negative ions in the air outlet channel 11 can flow to the designated area together with the air to sterilize the air in the designated area. In addition, the number of negative ions generated by the ionization of the air around the discharge part 21 is greater than the number of positive ions. The negative ions left after the positive ions and negative ions are neutralized can float in the air. The negative ions floating in the air will combine with the smoke and dust particles in the air to charge the smoke, dust and other particles. Due to the electrostatic effect, the charged smoke, dust and other particles are attracted to the ground and settle to the ground, thereby facilitating the improvement of the quality of the air in the designated area.
[0052] In other embodiments of the present invention, the disinfection device 20 includes a negative ion generator. After the negative ion generator is powered on, the discharge portion 21 can generate a high corona and release a large number of electrons. The electrons will be captured by oxygen molecules in the air to form negative air ions. After the negative air ions meet and combine with bacteria, they can change the structure of the bacteria or transfer the energy of the bacteria, thereby eliminating the bacteria to sterilize the air in the air outlet channel 11.
[0053] At the same time, the negative air ions in the air outlet channel 11 can flow to the designated area together with the air, so as to sterilize the air in the designated area by using the negative air ions. In addition, the negatively charged negative air ions can be electrode-neutralized with the positively charged smoke, dust and other particles floating in the air, so that the smoke, dust and other particles are naturally deposited, thereby facilitating the improvement of the air quality in the designated area.
[0054] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the distance H between the discharge portion 21 and the adjacent air guide vane 121 in the first direction is greater than 25 mm to control the distance between the discharge portion 21 and the air guide vane 121 along the first direction. If the distance between the discharge portion 21 and the air guide vane 121 is too close, the ions generated near the discharge portion 21 will adhere to the air guide vane 121, which will affect the discharge voltage at the discharge portion 21 on the one hand, and affect the sterilization effect of the ions on the other hand.
[0055] Optionally, the distance H between the discharge portion 21 and the adjacent guide vane 121 in the first direction is 26mm, 27mm, 28mm, 29mm, 30mm, 31mm, 32mm, 33mm, 34mm or 35mm, so as to control the flow direction of air in the air outlet channel 11 by using the guide vane 121 while avoiding the accumulation of ions near the discharge portion 21 on the guide vane 121, so that the discharge portion 21 and the guide vane 121 maintain a distance to ensure the stability of the voltage at the discharge portion 21, thereby allowing ions for disinfection to be smoothly formed near the discharge portion 21.
[0056] In addition, keeping the discharge part 21 at a distance from the guide vane 121 makes it easier to use the guide vane 121 to guide the flow of air near the discharge part 21, so that the ions generated by the discharge part 21 can flow with the air to the designated area, so that the ions can be used to disinfect the designated area, and the negative ions can be electrode-neutralized with the positively charged smoke, dust and other particles floating in the air, so that the smoke, dust and other particles are naturally deposited, so as to improve the quality of the air in the designated area.
[0057] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the first direction extends along the left-right direction, a plurality of guide blades 121 are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction, a plurality of discharge portions 21 are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction, a single discharge portion 21 is located between two guide blades 121, and a distance H between the discharge portion 21 and the adjacent guide blade 121 is greater than 25 mm, so that when the guide blades 121 guide the flow direction of the air in the air outlet channel 11, ions can be prevented from accumulating on the guide blades 121, and at the same time, when the guide blades 121 guide the flow direction of the air, it is convenient to ensure that the air can smoothly flow through the discharge portion 21 to the designated area, so that the ions generated at the discharge portion 21 can be used to sterilize the air, so that the ions generated at the discharge portion 21 can flow to the designated area together with the air, so as to sterilize the designated area.
[0058] In some embodiments of the present invention, the disinfection device 20 is arranged relative to the air guide component 12 in a second direction, and the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, that is, the disinfection device 20 is arranged on one side of the second direction of the air guide component 12.
[0059] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the first direction extends along the left-right direction, and the second direction extends along the height direction of the disinfection device 20, that is, extends along the up-down direction. The disinfection device 20 includes a plurality of discharge parts 21, and the plurality of discharge parts 21 are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction. The discharge parts 21 extend along the up-down direction. The air guide assembly 12 includes a plurality of air guide blades 121, and the plurality of air guide blades 121 are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction, so that the air guide assembly 12 is located on one side of the disinfection device 20 in the height direction.
[0060] The discharge portion 21 forms a tip portion 211 at one end facing the air outlet channel 11. After the disinfection device 20 is energized, a high corona can be generated at the tip portion 211 and a large number of electrons can be released. The electrons will be captured by oxygen molecules in the air to form negative air ions. After the negative air ions meet and combine with bacteria, they can change the structure of the bacteria or transfer the energy of the bacteria, thereby eliminating the bacteria to achieve sterilization of the air in the air outlet channel 11.
[0061] Among them, the disinfection device 20 is arranged on one side of the second direction of the air guide component 12, so as to facilitate the setting of the tip portion 211 in the air outlet channel 11, so that the tip portion 211 of the discharge portion 21 can extend between the air guide blades 121, and then under the action of the discharge portion 21, ions can be formed in the air outlet channel 11, so as to utilize the ions to sterilize the air.
[0062] It should be noted here that the above up and down directions correspond to Figure 5 The up and down directions in the figure do not represent the up and down directions of the air conditioner 1 in actual use.
[0063] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig. 9 As shown, the wall of the air outlet channel 11 includes a mounting wall 111, and a preset area in the inner surface of the mounting wall 111 is a smooth surface. The discharge portion 21 is arranged in the preset area, so that when ions for disinfection are formed at the discharge portion 21, it is possible to avoid ions from accumulating on the mounting wall 111, and to avoid affecting the voltage at the discharge portion 21. On the one hand, it is convenient to ensure the stability of the voltage at the discharge portion 21, and on the other hand, it is convenient to ensure the disinfection efficiency of the disinfection device 20, so that the ions generated at the discharge portion 21 can smoothly disinfect the air in the air outlet channel 11, and the ions generated at the discharge portion 21 can smoothly flow with the air to the designated area to sterilize the air in the designated area.
[0064] In some embodiments, the surface within the preset area on the inner surface of the mounting wall 111 is a plane or a curved surface. In other embodiments, the preset area on the inner surface of the mounting wall 111 has multiple planes, and the multiple planes are connected by curved surface transitions to avoid having an angle within the preset area on the inner surface of the mounting wall 111, thereby preventing the ions generated at the discharge portion 21 from accumulating on the inner surface of the mounting wall 111.
[0065] In addition, there are no obvious protrusions or depressions in the preset area on the inner surface of the mounting wall 111, so as to prevent the ions formed at the discharge section 21 from gathering at the protrusions or depressions in the preset area on the inner surface of the mounting wall 111, and to prevent the gathered ions from affecting the voltage at the discharge section 21, so as to ensure the stability of the voltage at the discharge section 21 and ensure the disinfection efficiency of the disinfection device 20.
[0066] In some optional embodiments of the present invention, on the inner surface of the mounting wall 111, an area at least 25 mm away from the discharge portion 21 is a preset area, so as to reserve sufficient space for the discharge portion 21 to prevent the ions generated at the discharge portion 21 from accumulating in the preset area. On the one hand, this is convenient for ensuring the stability of the voltage at the discharge portion 21, and on the other hand, it is convenient for the ions to sterilize the air in the preset area smoothly, so that the ions can flow smoothly to the designated area with the air.
[0067] In some embodiments, a spherical area with a radius of 25 mm and the tip 211 of the discharge part 21 as the center is the preset area. At this time, sufficient space can be reserved for the discharge part 21 to prevent the ions generated at the discharge part 21 from adhering to a certain position, thereby avoiding affecting the disinfection efficiency of the disinfection device 20.
[0068] In other embodiments, the disinfection device 20 includes a negative ion generator, with the tip portion 211 of the discharge portion 21 as the center of the circle, a line segment 25 mm away from the discharge portion 21 along the direction in which electrons are released from the discharge portion 21 as a first radius, and a line segment 25 mm away from the discharge portion 21 along the direction of air flow as a second radius, and the fan-shaped area formed by the first radius, the second radius and the center of the circle is a preset area.
[0069] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, the disinfection device 20 also includes a conductive plate 22, and a plurality of discharge portions 21 are spaced apart on the conductive plate 22. The conductive plate 22 is used to transmit voltage to the plurality of discharge portions 21 so that the plurality of discharge portions 21 can evenly form ions in the air outlet channel 11, thereby facilitating expansion of the range in which the disinfection device 20 generates ions, and further facilitating improvement of the disinfection efficiency of the disinfection device 20.
[0070] The plurality of discharge parts 21 are spaced apart on the conductive plate 22 , and the conductive plate 22 is used to transmit voltage to the plurality of discharge parts 21 , so as to centrally supply power to the plurality of discharge parts 21 , thereby facilitating reducing the complexity of the structure of the disinfection device 20 .
[0071] In some optional embodiments of the present invention, Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the conductive plate 22 and the plurality of discharge parts 21 are integrally formed. This arrangement is convenient for reducing the connection structure between the discharge part 21 and the conductive plate 22 , and is convenient for reducing the complexity of the structure between the conductive plate 22 and the discharge part 21 .
[0072] In some other optional embodiments of the present invention, the conductive plate 22 and the multiple discharge parts 21 are separately formed and mechanically connected together. Such a configuration facilitates flexible arrangement of the positions of the discharge parts 21, and further facilitates flexible adjustment of the positions of the multiple discharge parts 21 on the conductive plate 22 according to needs.
[0073] In some other optional embodiments of the present invention, Figure 7 As shown, the conductive plate 22 is provided with at least one through hole 221. The through hole 221 is provided to reduce the mass of the conductive plate 22, thereby saving costs. One end of at least one discharge portion 21 is connected to the edge of the through hole 221, so that the voltage can be smoothly transmitted to the discharge portion 21 by using the conductive plate 22, so that the discharge portion 21 can smoothly form ions near it, so as to sterilize the air by using the ions.
[0074] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, Figure 7 As shown, the length direction of the conductive plate 22 extends along the first direction, and the plurality of through holes 221 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the conductive plate 22. One end of the plurality of discharge portions 21 is connected to the hole edges of the plurality of through holes 221 in a one-to-one correspondence. This arrangement reduces the mass of the conductive plate 22 and facilitates reducing production costs.
[0075] In some optional embodiments of the present invention, the base material of the conductive plate 22 is punched and bent to form the discharge portion 21 .
[0076] like Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, in the present embodiment, when manufacturing the conductive plate 22 and the plurality of discharge portions 21, a plurality of through holes 221 can be formed on the conductive plate 22 by stamping, and the discharge portion 21 is reserved when forming the through holes 221, and then the discharge portion 21 is bent so that the end of the discharge portion 21 faces the air outlet channel 11, and the end of the discharge portion 21 facing the air outlet channel 11 is formed as a tip portion 211. After the conductive plate 22 transmits a negative voltage to the discharge portion 21, a high corona can be generated at the tip portion 211 and a large number of electrons can be released. The electrons will be captured by oxygen molecules in the air to form negative air ions. After the negative air ions meet and combine with bacteria, the structure of the bacteria can be changed or the energy of the bacteria can be transferred, thereby eliminating the bacteria to sterilize the air in the air outlet channel 11.
[0077] In some examples, such as Figure 8 As shown, the length of the through hole 221 along the left-right direction is smaller than the length of the discharge portion 21 along the left-right direction, so as to facilitate bending of the discharge portion 21 and avoid the discharge portion 21 from rubbing against the edge of the through hole 221 when bending the discharge portion 21.
[0078] In some optional embodiments of the present invention, Figure 8 As shown, the hole edge of the through hole 221 transitions in an arc shape, which, on the one hand, facilitates the processing and forming of the through hole 221, and on the other hand, can prevent the ions generated near the discharge portion 21 from accumulating at the hole edge of the through hole 221 and affecting the voltage of the discharge portion 21, so that ions can be generated smoothly and stably at the discharge portion 21, so that the ions can be used to fully sterilize the air.
[0079] In some optional embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4As shown, the disinfection device 20 also includes a mounting seat 23, and the mounting seat 23 is arranged on the air-conditioning body 10. The conductive plate 22 is arranged on the mounting seat 23 so that the mounting seat 23 is arranged on the air-conditioning body 10, so as to utilize the mounting seat 23 to protect the conductive plate 22, thereby facilitating reducing the leakage area of the conductive plate 22, and further facilitating preventing objects in the external environment from scratching the conductive plate 22, thereby preventing the conductive plate 22 from being damaged or causing a short circuit in the conductive plate 22.
[0080] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, the mounting seat 23 defines a receiving groove 231, and the conductive plate 22 is arranged in the receiving groove 231, so that the mounting seat 23 can fully protect the conductive plate 22, and multiple discharge parts 21 extend out of the receiving groove 231 from the notch of the receiving groove 231, so that the discharge part 21 can be connected to the conductive plate 22 in the receiving groove 231 while the discharge part 21 can extend out of the receiving groove 231 and be located in the air outlet channel 11. Under the action of the discharge part 21, ions are generated near the discharge part 21, so that the air in the air outlet channel 11 is sterilized by the ions, and the ions can flow to the designated area with the air to sterilize the air in the designated area.
[0081] In some specific embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the mounting seat 23 is made of insulating material, and fixing holes 236 are provided on both sides of the mounting seat 23. Bolt columns are provided on the air conditioner body 10, and the positions of the bolt columns and the fixing holes 236 correspond. Bolts or screws and other fixing parts can pass through the fixing holes 236 and the bolt columns to fix the mounting seat 23 on the air conditioner body 10. The conductive plate 22 is arranged in the accommodating groove 231 defined by the mounting seat 23, so that the conductive plate 22 and the air conditioner body 10 are separated by the mounting seat 23, and the conductive plate 22 is protected by the mounting seat 23. On the one hand, it can prevent the conductive plate 22 from contacting with the air conditioner body 10 to avoid short circuit. On the other hand, it can protect the conductive plate 22 so that the conductive plate 22 can smoothly supply power to the discharge part 21.
[0082] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, a support portion 232 and a limit portion 233 are provided in the receiving groove 231, and the support portion 232 and the limit portion 233 are arranged along the groove depth direction of the receiving groove 231, and the conductive plate 22 is located between the support portion 232 and the limit portion 233, so that the position of the conductive plate 22 can be limited by the support portion 232 and the limit portion 233, so that the conductive plate 22 can be stably fixed in the receiving groove 231, and the conductive plate 22 can be prevented from falling out of the receiving groove 231 when the air conditioner body 10 or the mounting base 23 is moved.
[0083] Among them, the limiting portion 233 is arranged close to the slot and has a guide surface 234, and the guide surface 234 extends from the outside to the inside of the accommodating groove 231 toward the center of the accommodating groove 231, so that when the conductive plate 22 is arranged between the supporting portion 232 and the limiting portion 233, the guide surface 234 can guide the moving direction of the conductive plate 22, so that the conductive plate 22 can be smoothly installed between the supporting portion 232 and the limiting portion 233.
[0084] For example 5. Figure 6 As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the length direction of the accommodating groove 231 extends in the left-right direction, the width direction of the accommodating groove 231 extends in the front-to-back direction, and the groove depth direction of the accommodating groove 231 extends in the up-down direction. A plurality of limiting portions 233 are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction on the front groove wall and the rear groove wall of the accommodating groove 231. In the front-to-back direction, the limiting portions 233 on the front groove wall of the accommodating groove 231 and the limiting portions 233 on the rear groove wall correspond one to one, and the guide surface 234 extends downward along the front-to-back direction toward the center of the accommodating groove 231.
[0085] When the conductive plate 22 is installed in the receiving groove 231, the conductive plate 22 contacts and cooperates with the guide surface 234. At this time, the conductive plate 22 has an extrusion force on the limiting portion 233, and the limiting portion 233 is squeezed and deformed. At the same time, the guide surface 234 can guide the conductive plate 22 to move downward, so that the conductive plate 22 can move smoothly between the supporting portion 232 and the limiting portion 233, and then the conductive plate 22 is fixed in the receiving groove 231 by using the supporting portion 232 and the limiting portion 233.
[0086] Among them, multiple limiting portions 233 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the accommodating groove 231, which is convenient for reducing the contact area between the conductive plate 22 and the limiting portion 233. Further, when the conductive plate 22 is installed between the limiting portion 233 and the supporting portion 232, the resistance of the limiting portion 233 to the conductive plate 22 can be reduced, so that the conductive plate 22 can be smoothly installed between the limiting portion 233 and the supporting portion 232.
[0087] The lower surface of the conductive plate 22 cooperates with the supporting portion 232, and the upper end surface of the conductive plate 22 cooperates with the limiting portion 233 to limit the position of the conductive plate 22 in the receiving groove 231 along the up and down directions, thereby fixing the conductive plate 22 in the receiving groove 231. When the conductive seat is fixed on the air-conditioning body 10, the conductive plate 22 can be fixed on the air-conditioning body 10, so that the tip portion 211 of the discharge portion 21 can extend into the air outlet channel 11, so that ions can be formed in the air outlet channel 11, and the air can be sterilized by the ions.
[0088] In some optional embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 , Figure 5As shown, the air conditioner body 10 also includes an electric control box assembly 30, which is connected to the conductive plate 22 through a wire. The electric control box assembly 30 supplies power to the conductive plate 22 through the wire. The conductive plate 22 can supply power to the discharge part 21, so that the discharge part 21 can form ions in the air outlet channel 11, and the ions are used to sterilize the air.
[0089] Among them, a wiring groove 235 is provided at a position of the mounting seat 23 near the electric control box assembly 30, and the wiring groove 235 is for the wire to pass through. That is to say, the wiring groove 235 is arranged on a side of the mounting seat 23 close to the electric control box assembly 30, which is convenient for shortening the length of the wire. At the same time, the wiring groove 235 can be used to limit the position of the wire. In this way, when the mounting seat 23 or the electric control box assembly 30 is moved, the wire can be prevented from shaking drastically and objects in the external environment can be prevented from hooking the wire, thereby facilitating the stability of the connection between the wire and the electric control box assembly 30 and the conductive plate 22.
[0090] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the wiring groove 235 includes a vertical groove section and a transverse groove section, one end of the vertical groove section is closed and the other end has an opening to connect the groove, one end of the transverse groove section is connected to the vertical groove section and the other end extends in a direction close to the electric control box assembly 30, and the wire can enter the vertical groove section from the opening. After the wire enters the transverse groove section along the vertical groove section, the wire stops at the end of the transverse groove section, so that the position of the wire is limited by the transverse groove section.
[0091] In some embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the length direction of the mounting seat 23 extends in the left-right direction, the width direction of the mounting seat 23 extends in the front-back direction, and the height direction of the mounting seat 23 extends in the up-down direction. The electric control box assembly 30 is arranged on the right side of the mounting seat 23, and the wiring groove 235 is arranged at the right end of the rear side wall of the mounting seat 23, so as to shorten the length of the wire and facilitate the wiring inside the air conditioner 1.
[0092] The vertical groove section extends in the up and down direction, the transverse groove extends in the left and right direction, the upper end of the vertical groove forms an opening, the left end of the transverse groove is connected to the lower end of the vertical groove, and the right end of the transverse groove extends to the right. It should be understood here that the above-mentioned direction limitation is only for the convenience of describing the accompanying drawings and will not limit the actual setting position and direction of the air conditioner 1.
[0093] When using a wire to connect the electric control box assembly 30 and the conductive plate 22, the wire can enter the vertical groove from the opening of the vertical groove, enter the transverse groove from the lower end of the vertical groove along the vertical groove, and then slide to the right to stop at the right end of the transverse groove, so as to use the transverse groove to limit the position of the wire, prevent the wire from falling off the mounting seat 23, and ensure the stability of the connection between the wire and the conductive plate 22.
[0094] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig. 9 As shown, the air conditioner body 10 also has a accommodating cavity 13, which is located on one side of the air outlet channel 11. The disinfection device 20 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 13 and connected to the wall of the air outlet channel 11, so that when the disinfection device 20 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 13, the discharge part 21 can extend into the air outlet channel 11, wherein the wall of the air outlet channel 11 is provided with a plurality of through holes 131, and the through holes 131 connect the accommodating cavity 13 and the air outlet channel 11, and the plurality of discharge parts 21 extend from the plurality of through holes 131 to the air outlet channel 11 one by one, and then under the action of the discharge part 21, ions can be generated in the air outlet channel 11 to sterilize the air.
[0095] like Fig. 9 As shown, in the present embodiment, the accommodating chamber 13 is located at the rear side of the air outlet channel 11, the rear side wall of the air outlet channel 11, the rear side wall of the accommodating chamber 13, and the front side wall of the accommodating chamber 13 are the same side wall, and a plurality of through holes 131 are provided on the side wall. When the disinfection device 20 is disposed in the accommodating chamber 13, the disinfection device 20 is fixed to the front side wall of the accommodating chamber 13, and a plurality of discharge portions 21 correspondingly pass through the through holes 131 on the side wall to enter the air outlet channel 11. Under the action of the discharge portions 21, ions can be generated in the air outlet channel 11, so as to utilize the ions to sterilize the air.
[0096] In some optional embodiments of the present invention, Fig. 9 As shown, the distance L between the side of the disinfection device 20 facing away from the air outlet channel 11 and the wall of the air outlet channel 11 is less than or equal to 10 mm, so as to control the space occupied by the disinfection device 20 in the accommodating chamber 13, thereby reserving sufficient space for other components in the accommodating chamber 13.
[0097] Among them, if the distance L between the side of the disinfection device 20 facing away from the air outlet channel 11 and the wall of the air outlet channel 11 is too large, the disinfection device 20 will occupy too much space in the accommodating chamber 13. When other components need to be placed in the accommodating chamber 13, the wall of the disinfection device 20 facing away from the air outlet channel 11 may rub against other components in the accommodating chamber 13. Therefore, the distance L between the side of the disinfection device 20 facing away from the air outlet channel 11 and the wall of the air outlet channel 11 is less than or equal to 10 mm, so as to reserve sufficient space for other components in the accommodating chamber 13.
[0098] The following is based on the attached Figure 1-Figure 9 A specific embodiment according to the present invention is described.
[0099] like Figure 2 , Figure 5As shown, the air conditioner 1 includes an air conditioner body 10 and a disinfection device 20. The air conditioner body 10 defines an air outlet channel 11 and a accommodating chamber 13. The accommodating chamber 13 is located on one side of the air outlet channel 11. The disinfection device 20 includes a conductive plate 22 and a discharge portion 21. The conductive plate 22 and the discharge portion 21 are an integral part. The discharge portion 21 can be formed by stamping the conductive plate 22. The discharge portion 21 is bent so that the discharge portion 21 extends in the up and down directions. The lower end of the discharge portion 21 is connected to the conductive plate 22. The upper end of the discharge portion 21 forms a tip portion 211. A plurality of discharge portions 21 are arranged on the conductive plate 22 at intervals in the left and right directions.
[0100] The disinfection device 20 also includes a mounting seat 23, which defines a receiving groove 231. The conductive plate 22 is arranged in the receiving groove 231. The mounting seat 23 is fixed on the side wall of the receiving cavity 13 near the air outlet channel 11. The side wall of the receiving cavity 13 near the air outlet channel 11 has a through hole 131, and the tip portion 211 of the discharge portion 21 passes through the through hole 131 and is located in the air outlet channel 11.
[0101] The air conditioner body 10 further includes a plurality of guide blades 121, which are spaced apart in the air outlet passage 11 along the left-right direction. The discharge portion 21 is located between two guide blades 121, and a distance H between the discharge portion 21 and its adjacent guide blade 121 is greater than 25 mm.
[0102] Among them, the groove depth of the accommodating groove 231 is along the up-down direction, and a supporting portion 232 and a limiting portion 233 are provided in the accommodating groove 231. The supporting portion 232 and the limiting portion 233 are arranged at intervals along the up-down direction. The limiting portion 233 is arranged above the supporting portion 232, and a guide surface 234 is formed on the upper surface of the limiting portion 233. The guide surface 234 extends downward from the outside to the inside of the accommodating groove 231 toward the center of the accommodating groove 231.
[0103] When the conductive plate 22 is installed in the receiving groove 231, the conductive plate 22 contacts and cooperates with the guide surface 234. At this time, the conductive plate 22 has an extrusion force on the limiting portion 233, and the limiting portion 233 is squeezed and deformed. At the same time, the guide surface 234 can guide the conductive plate 22 to move downward, so that the conductive plate 22 can move smoothly between the supporting portion 232 and the limiting portion 233, and then the conductive plate 22 is fixed in the receiving groove 231 by using the supporting portion 232 and the limiting portion 233.
[0104] The air conditioner 1 also includes an electric control box assembly 30, and a wire connects the electric control box assembly 30 and the conductive plate 22. The electric control box assembly 30 is located at the right end of the disinfection device 20. A wiring groove 235 is provided at the right end of the mounting seat 23. The wiring groove 234 is used to limit the position of the wire. The wiring groove 235 is set at the right end of the mounting seat 23 to shorten the length of the wire and facilitate wiring inside the air conditioner 1.
[0105] Among them, the wiring groove 235 includes a vertical groove section and a horizontal groove section. The vertical groove section extends in the up and down direction, and the horizontal groove extends in the left and right direction. The upper end of the vertical groove forms an opening, the left end of the horizontal groove is connected to the lower end of the vertical groove, and the right end of the horizontal groove extends to the right. When the electric control box assembly 30 and the conductive plate 22 are connected by a wire, the conductor can enter the vertical groove from the opening of the vertical groove, enter the horizontal groove from the lower end of the vertical groove along the vertical groove, and then slide to the right and stop at the right end of the horizontal groove, so as to use the horizontal groove to limit the position of the wire to prevent the wire from falling off the mounting seat 23, so as to ensure the stability of the connection between the wire and the conductive plate 22.
[0106] The disinfection device 20 is a negative ion generator. The electrical control box assembly 30 can provide a negative voltage to the discharge part 21 through the wire and the conductive plate 22. The tip 211 of the discharge part 21 can generate a high corona and release a large number of electrons. The electrons will be captured by oxygen molecules in the air to form negative air ions. After the negative air ions meet and combine with bacteria, they can change the structure of the bacteria or transfer the energy of the bacteria, and then eliminate the bacteria to sterilize the air in the air outlet channel 11.
[0107] At the same time, the negative air ions in the air outlet channel 11 can flow to the designated area together with the air, so as to sterilize the air in the designated area by using the negative air ions. In addition, the negatively charged negative air ions can be electrode-neutralized with the positively charged smoke, dust and other particles floating in the air, so that the smoke, dust and other particles are naturally deposited, thereby facilitating the improvement of the air quality in the designated area.
