[0043] When the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 discharges air only through the first air outlet 14, the switching member 5 rotates to the second state to block the second air outlet 13, thereby preventing the airflow from flowing into the second air outlet 13 and reducing wind loss; when the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 discharges air only through the second air outlet 15, the switching member 5 rotates to the first state to block the first air outlet 12, thereby preventing the airflow from flowing into the first air outlet 12 and reducing wind loss; when the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 discharges air through the first air outlet 14 and the second air outlet 15 at the same time, the switching member 5 rotates to the middle state, so that the first air outlet 12 and the second air outlet 13 are both connected, and then a part of the airflow in the casing 1 flows to the first air outlet 14 under the guidance of the first diverter surface 41, and another part of the airflow flows to the second air outlet 15 under the guidance of the second diverter surface 42.
[0044] According to the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, the first air outlet 14 and / or the second air outlet 15 can be selected for air outlet, thereby increasing the air outlet modes of the air-conditioning indoor unit 100. When the first air outlet 14 and the second air outlet 15 discharge air at the same time, the air outlet area of the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 is increased, and the air outlet volume of the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 is increased.

[0072] In some other specific embodiments, in the dual air outlet mode, the swing direction of the first louver 81 is opposite to the swing direction of the second louver 91, that is, when the first louver 81 swings to the left, the second louver 91 swings to the right, and when the first louver 81 swings to the right, the second louver 91 swings to the left. In the embodiment of the present invention, in the dual air outlet mode, the swing direction of the first louver 81 is opposite to the swing direction of the second louver 91, which increases the disturbance of the indoor air, accelerates the thermal balance of the indoor air, and improves the comfort of the air outlet of the air conditioner indoor unit 100.
[0073] Reference Figure 4 In some embodiments, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 has a cooling air outlet mode. In the cooling air outlet mode, the first opening and closing member 6 opens the first air outlet 14, the second opening and closing member 7 closes the second air outlet 15, and the switching member 5 is in the second state to shield the second air outlet 13. When the air conditioner is outlet, the airflow flows to the first air outlet 12, and flows to the first air outlet 14 under the guidance of the first diversion surface 41, and then is discharged forward into the room through the first air outlet 14, so as to avoid the cold air blowing directly on the human body and improve the comfort of the air conditioner outlet.
[0074] In the cooling air outlet mode, the multiple first louvers 81 can be rotated to guide the airflow to flow to the left, the multiple first louvers 81 can be rotated to guide the airflow to flow to the right, and the multiple first louvers 81 can also swing back and forth to guide the airflow to sweep in the left and right directions.
[0075] In some specific embodiments, the air outlet end of the first diverter surface 41 is arranged to face forward and upward, so that the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 can supply cold air forward and upward when it is in the cooling air outlet mode. Because cold air is suitable for flowing downward, in the embodiments of the present invention, the first diverter surface 41 can guide the cold air forward and upward to form a skylight-style air supply, which is beneficial to the diffusion of cold air in the room and improves the effect of the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 in lowering the indoor temperature.
[0076] Reference Figure 5 In some embodiments, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 has a heating air outlet mode. In the heating air outlet mode, the first opening and closing member 6 closes the first air outlet 14, the second opening and closing member 7 opens the second air outlet 15, and the switching member 5 is in the first state to shield the first air outlet 12. When the air conditioner is outlet, the airflow flows to the second air outlet 13, and flows to the second air outlet 15 under the guidance of the second diversion surface 42, and then is discharged downward into the room through the second air outlet 15.
[0077] Because hot air is suitable for flowing upward, in the embodiment of the present invention, the hot air can be directed downward, which is conducive to the diffusion of hot air in the room and improves the effect of the air conditioner indoor unit 100 on raising the indoor temperature.
[0078] In the heating air outlet mode, the multiple second louvers 91 can rotate to guide the airflow to flow to the left, the multiple second louvers 91 can also rotate to guide the airflow to flow to the right, and the multiple second louvers 91 can also swing back and forth to guide the airflow to sweep in the left and right directions.
[0079] In some specific embodiments, in the heating air outlet mode, the air outlet end of the second opening and closing member 7 is arranged to face forward and downward, so as to guide the hot air forward and downward to form a carpet-like air supply, thereby improving the comfort of the air-conditioning air supply.
[0080] In some embodiments, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 further includes a sterilization module, which is disposed in the housing 1. The sterilization module can release sterilization substances when working, so that the air conditioner indoor unit 100 can sterilize the inside of the housing 1, and the air conditioner indoor unit 100 can also sterilize the indoor environment, which effectively improves the safety of the air conditioner indoor unit 100. It should be noted that the sterilization substances include charged ions. In some other embodiments, the sterilization substances may also include ozone and / or free radicals.
[0081] In some embodiments, the sterilization module is disposed at the air inlet 11 of the housing 1. When the first air outlet 14 and the second air outlet 15 are both in a closed state, the sterilization module operates to allow sterilizing substances to enter the housing 1 to sterilize the interior of the housing 1. When the first air outlet 14 and / or the second air outlet 15 are in an open state, the sterilization module operates to allow sterilizing substances to enter the housing 1 to sterilize the interior of the housing 1. At the same time, some sterilizing substances can pass through the first air outlet 14 and / or the second air outlet 15 to sterilize the indoor environment, thereby effectively improving the safety of the air conditioner indoor unit 100.
[0082] In addition to being set at the air inlet 11, the sterilizing substance can also be set in the area where the indoor heat exchanger 2 is installed, the area where the driving fan 3 is installed, the first air outlet 12 or the second air outlet 13, as long as the sterilizing substance can sterilize the internal environment of the casing 1 and the indoor environment.
[0083] In some other embodiments, the sterilization module can also be set at the first air outlet 14 and / or the second air outlet 15. When the first air outlet 14 and / or the second air outlet 15 are in an open state, the sterilization module works to release sterilization substances to directly sterilize the indoor environment.
[0084] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, a circulation channel 16 is provided in the casing 1, a circulation air inlet 161 of the circulation channel 16 is located at the air outlet side of the driving fan 3, a circulation air outlet 162 of the circulation channel 16 is located at the air inlet side of the indoor heat exchanger 2, and the sterilization module is located in the circulation channel 16.
[0085] Through the above technical solution, when the driving fan 3 is working, the driving fan 3 can drive the airflow to enter the circulation channel 16 through the circulation air inlet 161, and then be discharged to the indoor heat exchanger 2 through the circulation air outlet 162, and then flow to the driving fan 3, that is, the air inside the casing 1 can circulate inside the casing 1 through the circulation channel 16. The sterilization module is located in the circulation channel 16, that is, the sterilization substance released by the sterilization module when working can circulate inside the casing 1, which effectively improves the sterilization efficiency of the sterilization module on the internal environment of the casing 1.
[0086] In some embodiments, the air conditioning indoor unit 100 further includes: a third switch door, which is movably disposed on the housing 1 to open or close the circulating air inlet 161. When the air conditioning indoor unit 100 needs to use the circulating flow channel 16, the third switch door moves to open the circulating air inlet 161, and when the air conditioning indoor unit 100 does not need to use the circulating flow channel 16, the third switch door moves to close the circulating air inlet 161.
[0087] Reference Figure 2, Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some specific embodiments, the circulating air inlet 161 is formed on the inner wall of the first air outlet 12 and is located at one end of the first air outlet 12 close to the first air outlet 14. The third switch door and the first opening and closing member 6 are an integral structure. The first opening and closing member 6 can be rotated to close the first air outlet 14, and the first opening and closing member 6 can also be rotated to close the circulating air inlet 161.
[0088] That is to say, the first opening and closing member 6 can not only play the role of the first opening and closing door, but also play the role of the third opening and closing door, thereby simplifying the structure of the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 and reducing the cost of the air-conditioning indoor unit 100.
[0089] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 When the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 is in the dual air outlet mode, the first opening and closing member 6 opens the first air outlet 14 and the first opening and closing member 6 closes the circulation air inlet 161; when the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 is in the cooling air outlet mode, the first opening and closing member 6 opens the first air outlet 14 and the first opening and closing member 6 closes the circulation air inlet 161; when the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 is in the heating air outlet mode, the first opening and closing member 6 closes the first air outlet 14 and the first opening and closing member 6 opens the circulation air inlet 161. Because the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 is in the heating air outlet mode, the switching member 5 is in the first state, which prevents the airflow from entering the first air outlet duct 12, thereby preventing the airflow from entering the circulation flow duct 16 through the circulation air inlet 161.
[0090] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some specific embodiments, the cross section of the first opening and closing member 6 includes a first arcuate surface 61 and a second arcuate surface 62 , the first arcuate surface 61 and the second arcuate surface 62 are bent in the same direction, and the two ends of the first arcuate surface 61 and the second arcuate surface 62 are connected.
[0091] When the first opening and closing member 6 closes the first air outlet 14 and opens the circulating air inlet 161, the first curved surface 61 faces the inner side of the casing 1. The first curved surface 61 can guide the airflow to flow toward the circulating air inlet 161, thereby improving the smoothness of the airflow circulation. The second curved surface 62 faces the outer side of the casing 1 to block the first air outlet 14.
[0092] When the first opening and closing member 6 opens the first air outlet 14 and closes the circulating air inlet 161 , the first arc surface 61 faces the first air outlet 12 to guide the airflow to flow toward the first air outlet 14 to reduce wind loss.
[0093] Reference Figure 6In some specific embodiments, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 further includes a first drive shaft 63, which is located inside the housing 1 and connected to the first opening and closing member 6 via a connecting member 64, so that the first drive shaft 63 can drive the first opening and closing member 6 to rotate to block the first air outlet 14, or to rotate to block the circulating air inlet 161. In the above technical solution, the driving method of the first opening and closing member 6 is simple, which reduces the cost of the air conditioner indoor unit 100.
[0094] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some specific embodiments, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 also includes: a first wind sweeping component 8, the first wind sweeping component 8 includes a plurality of rotatable first louvers 81, the plurality of first louvers 81 are arranged on the first opening and closing member 6, and the plurality of first louvers 81 are spaced apart along the left-right direction of the first opening and closing member 6.
[0095] Through the above technical solution, the first wind sweeping component 8 can rotate along with the rotation of the first opening and closing member 6, thereby avoiding the interference between the first opening and closing member 6 and the first wind sweeping component 8 when the first opening and closing member 6 rotates.
[0096] Reference Figure 7 In some embodiments, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 has a first return air mode. In the first return air mode, the first opening and closing member 6 opens the circulating air inlet 161, and the first air outlet 14 and the second air outlet 15 are both in a closed state. The sterilization module works to release sterilization substances, and the driving fan 3 works to drive the air to circulate in the casing 1, so as to drive the sterilization substances to circulate in the casing 1.
[0097] Through the above technical solution, the sterilization efficiency of the internal environment of the casing 1 is improved.
[0098] In some specific embodiments, when the air conditioner indoor unit 100 is in the first return air mode, the first opening and closing member 6 closes the first air outlet 14 and opens the circulating air inlet 161, the second opening and closing member 7 closes the second air outlet 15, and the switching member 5 is in the second state.
[0099] In some other embodiments, when the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 is in the first return air mode, the first opening and closing member 6 closes the first air outlet 14 and opens the circulating air inlet 161, the second opening and closing member 7 closes the second air outlet 15, and the switching member 5 is in an intermediate state, so that the sterilizing substance can also enter the second air outlet duct 13, thereby sterilizing the second air outlet duct 13.
[0100] In some specific embodiments, when the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 is in the first return air mode, the plurality of first louvers 81 swing back and forth to increase the disturbance of the air flow inside the casing 1 and improve the sterilization efficiency.
[0101] Reference Figure 8In some embodiments, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 has a second return air mode. In the second return air mode, the first opening and closing member 6 opens the circulating air inlet 161, one of the first air outlet 14 and the second air outlet 15 is in an open state and the other is in a closed state, the sterilization module works to release sterilization substances, and the fan 3 is driven to work to drive the air flow. At this time, part of the air in the housing 1 circulates through the circulation channel 16, and the other part of the air in the housing 1 is discharged to the room through the first air outlet 14 or the second air outlet 15, and at the same time, part of the air in the indoor environment will be supplemented into the housing 1 through the air inlet 11.
[0102] Through the above technical solution, the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 can not only sterilize the internal environment of the casing 1, but also sterilize the indoor environment when it is in the second return air mode. The ventilation volume of the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 is increased when the sterilization module is working, which can effectively improve the sterilization efficiency of the air-conditioning indoor unit 100.
[0103] In some specific embodiments, when the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 is in the second return air mode, the first opening and closing member 6 closes the first air outlet 14 and opens the circulating air inlet 161, the second opening and closing member 7 opens the second air outlet 15, and the switching member 5 is in an intermediate state, so that part of the air in the casing 1 circulates through the circulating flow channel 16, and the other part of the air in the casing 1 is discharged into the room through the second air outlet 15, thereby avoiding the situation where the air discharged through the first air outlet 14 affects the air entering the circulating flow channel 16.
[0104] In some specific embodiments, when the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 is in the second return air mode, multiple first louvers 81 swing back and forth to increase the disturbance of the air flow inside the casing 1, and multiple second louvers 91 swing back and forth to increase the disturbance of the indoor air, further improving the sterilization efficiency of the air-conditioning indoor unit 100.
