[0037] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary. The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below.

[0038] The following is for reference. Figures 1-11 A window air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0039] exist Figures 1-11 In the diagram, the height direction is the vertical direction, the width direction is the horizontal direction, and the front-back direction is the front-back direction.

[0040] Combination Figures 1-3 As shown, the window air conditioner 100 includes: a refrigerant circuit, an outdoor unit, an indoor unit, and a connecting bridge. It also includes a casing, a compressor 23, an outdoor heat exchanger 21, an outdoor fan 22, an indoor heat exchanger 31, and an indoor fan 32.

[0041] In the refrigerant circuit, the refrigerant circulates sequentially through the compressor 23, condenser, pressure reducer, and evaporator. One of the condenser and evaporator is an outdoor heat exchanger 21, and the other is an indoor heat exchanger 31. The outdoor unit is located on the outdoor side and includes a first casing 11 and an outdoor fan 22, compressor 23, and outdoor heat exchanger 21 housed within the first casing 11. The pressure reducer can be an expansion valve or a capillary tube.

[0042] Specifically, an outdoor air passage is formed inside the first outer casing 11, and the first outer casing 11 has an outdoor air inlet and an outdoor air outlet, that is, the outdoor air inlet and the outdoor air outlet are disposed on the surface of the first outer casing 11. The outdoor air outlet is located on the side of the first outer casing 11 facing the outside, so that outdoor air enters the first outer casing 11 from the outdoor air inlet and then enters the outside from the outdoor air outlet.

[0043] The indoor unit is located on the indoor side and includes a second housing 12, an indoor fan 32, and an indoor heat exchanger 31 disposed within the second housing 12. An indoor air passage is formed within the second housing 12, and the second housing 12 has an indoor air inlet and an indoor air outlet; that is, the surface of the second housing 12 is provided with the indoor air inlet and the indoor air outlet. The indoor air outlet is located on the side of the second housing 12 facing the indoor environment, so that indoor air enters the second housing 12 from the indoor air inlet and then enters the room from the indoor air outlet.

[0044] It can be understood that the first shell 11 is arranged outdoors, that is, the first shell 11 is provided with an outdoor air inlet and an outdoor air outlet, outdoor air enters the first shell 11 from the outdoor air inlet and then is discharged to the outside from the outdoor air outlet. The outdoor air channel is arranged in the first shell 11, the compressor 23, the outdoor heat exchanger 21 and the outdoor fan 22 are arranged in the first shell 11, outdoor air enters the first shell 11 from the outdoor air inlet and is discharged to the outside from the outdoor air outlet after heat exchange in the first shell 11.

[0045] The second shell 12 is arranged indoors, and the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 are connected, that is, the second shell 12 is provided with an indoor air inlet and an indoor air outlet, indoor air enters the second shell 12 from the indoor air inlet and then is discharged to the indoor from the indoor air outlet. The indoor heat exchanger 31 and the indoor fan 32 are located in the second shell 12, and the indoor air channel is also located in the second shell 12, indoor air enters the second shell 12, exchanges heat at the indoor heat exchanger 31 and then enters the indoor from the indoor air outlet.

[0046] Since the first shell 11 is arranged outdoors and the second shell 12 is arranged indoors, the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 are arranged at intervals, a window is arranged between the first shell 11 and the second shell 12, and the second shell 12 is connected to the first shell 11 through the window.

[0047] The compressor 23 is arranged in the outdoor air channel, and the compressor 23 is provided with a discharge port and a return port. The compressor 23 compresses the refrigerant, so that the low-pressure refrigerant becomes high-pressure gaseous refrigerant. The low-pressure refrigerant enters the compressor 23 from the return port, the compressor 23 compresses the low-pressure refrigerant into high-pressure refrigerant, and the high-pressure refrigerant is discharged from the discharge port. The refrigerant releases heat at the condenser, absorbs heat after decompression at the evaporator, and finally enters the compressor 23 from the return port.

[0048] The outdoor heat exchanger 21 is arranged in the outdoor air channel and exchanges heat between outdoor air and refrigerant transmitted in the outdoor heat exchanger 21. The outdoor air entering the first shell 11 from the outdoor air inlet flows in the outdoor air channel and exchanges heat with the refrigerant at the outdoor heat exchanger 21.

[0049] Outdoor air enters the first shell 11 from the outdoor air inlet, flows in the outdoor air channel, flows to the outdoor heat exchanger 21, and the refrigerant flows in the outdoor heat exchanger 21. When the outdoor air passes through the outdoor heat exchanger 21, it exchanges heat with the refrigerant. The heat-exchanged outdoor air flows through the outdoor air channel to the outdoor air outlet and is discharged to the outside from the outdoor air outlet.

[0050] For example, the outdoor heat exchanger 21 works as a condenser in the cooling mode of the window air conditioner 100, so that the refrigerant compressed by the compressor 23 releases heat to the outdoor air through the outdoor heat exchanger 21 to be condensed. The outdoor heat exchanger 21 works as an evaporator in the heating mode of the window air conditioner 100, so that the refrigerant after decompression absorbs heat of the outdoor air through the outdoor heat exchanger 21 to be evaporated.

[0051] When the window air conditioner 100 is in the cooling mode, the discharge port of the compressor 23 is communicated with the outdoor heat exchanger 21, the outdoor heat exchanger 21 is a condenser, and the outdoor air entering from the outdoor air inlet flows to the outdoor heat exchanger 21, and the refrigerant releases a large amount of heat at the outdoor heat exchanger 21; the outdoor air absorbs the heat of the refrigerant.

[0052] When the window air conditioner 100 is in the heating mode, the discharge port of the compressor 23 is communicated with the indoor heat exchanger 31, the outdoor heat exchanger 21 is an evaporator, and the refrigerant releases heat at the indoor heat exchanger 31 and then flows to the outdoor heat exchanger 21; the outdoor air entering from the outdoor air inlet flows to the outdoor heat exchanger 21, and the refrigerant absorbs heat of the outdoor air at the outdoor heat exchanger 21.

[0053] The outdoor fan 22 is arranged in the outdoor air passage, and the outdoor fan 22 rotates to drive the outdoor air to flow from the outdoor air inlet to the outdoor air passage, exchange heat with the outdoor heat exchanger 21, and then flow to the outdoor from the outdoor air outlet.

[0054] The outdoor fan 22 is located in the first shell 11, and under the driving of the outdoor fan 22, the outdoor air enters the first shell 11 from the outdoor air inlet, flows through the outdoor air passage to the outdoor heat exchanger 21, and exchanges heat with the refrigerant at the outdoor heat exchanger 21. Under the driving of the outdoor fan 22, the refrigerant is discharged to the outdoor from the outdoor air outlet.

[0055] The indoor fan 32 is a cross-flow fan, which can push or draw air along the fan axis direction, and can provide better air volume and air pressure to bring comfortable experience to the user.

[0056] In addition, the user can also adjust the air volume of the window air conditioner 100 by controlling the rotating speed of the indoor fan 32 to improve the comfort of the user.

[0057] The indoor heat exchanger 31 is arranged in the indoor air passage, and exchanges heat between the indoor air and the refrigerant transmitted in the indoor heat exchanger 31. The indoor air entering the second shell 12 from the indoor air inlet flows in the indoor air passage to the indoor heat exchanger 31 to exchange heat with the refrigerant.

[0058] The indoor air enters the second shell 12 from the indoor air inlet, flows in the indoor air passage, and flows to the indoor heat exchanger 31. The refrigerant flows in the indoor heat exchanger 31, and the indoor air exchanges heat with the refrigerant when passing through the indoor heat exchanger 31. The indoor air after heat exchange flows through the indoor air passage to the indoor air outlet and is discharged to the indoor from the indoor air outlet.

[0059] For example, the indoor heat exchanger 31 works as an evaporator in the cooling mode of the window air conditioner 100, so that the refrigerant after pressure reduction absorbs the heat of the indoor air to evaporate through the indoor heat exchanger 31. The indoor heat exchanger 31 works as a condenser in the heating mode of the window air conditioner 100, so that the refrigerant compressed by the compressor 23 releases heat to the indoor air to condense through the indoor heat exchanger 31.

[0060] When the window air conditioner 100 cools, the exhaust port of the compressor 23 communicates with the outdoor heat exchanger 21, the indoor heat exchanger 31 is an evaporator, and the refrigerant releases heat at the outdoor heat exchanger 21 and then flows to the indoor heat exchanger 31. The indoor air entering from the indoor air inlet flows to the indoor heat exchanger 31, and the refrigerant absorbs the heat of the indoor air at the indoor heat exchanger 31 to achieve the effect of cooling the indoor.

[0061] When the window air conditioner 100 heats, the exhaust port of the compressor 23 communicates with the indoor heat exchanger 31, and the indoor heat exchanger 31 is a condenser. The indoor air entering from the indoor air inlet flows to the indoor heat exchanger 31, and the refrigerant releases a large amount of heat at the indoor heat exchanger 31. The indoor air absorbs the heat of the refrigerant to achieve the effect of heating the indoor.

[0062] The indoor fan 32 is arranged in the second shell 12. The indoor fan 32 rotates to drive the airflow to flow from the indoor air inlet to the indoor air outlet through the indoor air passage and the indoor heat exchanger 31. The indoor fan 32 is located in the second shell 12. Under the driving of the indoor fan 32, the indoor air enters the second shell 12 from the indoor air inlet, flows through the indoor air passage to the indoor heat exchanger 31, exchanges heat with the refrigerant at the indoor heat exchanger 31, and the refrigerant is discharged to the indoor from the indoor air outlet under the driving of the indoor fan 32.

[0063] In addition, the connecting bridge part is at least partially located on the window, one end of the connecting bridge part is connected with the indoor unit part, and the other end is connected with the outdoor unit part. That is, the indoor unit part, the outdoor unit part, and the connecting bridge part together form a reliable N-shaped structure, so that the window air conditioner 100 can be mounted on the windowsill. Compared with the traditional integrated square shape, it is more convenient to install, and when the window air conditioner 100 is mounted on the windowsill, the indoor unit part and the outdoor unit part located on the left and right sides of the window can keep the balance and stability of the window air conditioner 100, and the installation effect is more reliable.

[0064] As Figure 1As shown, the connecting bridge portion includes a connecting bridge shell 50 connected with the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 respectively to realize the connection between the outdoor unit portion and the indoor unit portion. That is, the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 are connected through the connecting bridge shell 50, the indoor side of the first shell 11 abuts against one end of the connecting bridge shell 50, and the indoor side of the first shell 11 is connected with the one end of the connecting bridge shell 50; the outdoor side of the second shell 12 abuts against the other end of the connecting bridge shell 50, and the outdoor side of the second shell 12 is connected with the other end of the connecting bridge shell 50.

[0066] It can be understood that the second shell 12 and the connecting bridge shell 50 are connected through the first sliding assembly, and the second shell 12 can slide in the height direction relative to the connecting bridge shell 50. The user can adjust the height of the second shell 12, and the indoor unit is raised to increase the height of the indoor air outlet of the indoor unit, thereby improving the user's experience.

[0067] Further, the first sliding member 13 is arranged on the second shell 12, and the second sliding member 53 is arranged on the connecting bridge shell 50 and fixedly connected with the connecting bridge shell 50.
