Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of household air purification, and more specifically, relates to an air conditioner. Background Art

[0002] Air pollution in indoor living or office spaces is one of the biggest environmental challenges facing human society today. As people pay more attention to the living and office environment, the use of air purifiers has also increased. In particular, the detection and control of PM2.5 has entered the public's field of vision in recent years. Air purifiers generally use fans to extract air, generate suction, and filter and purify the air through the filter components before sending it out from the air outlet. For vertical air purifiers, filter cartridges are generally used to suck air around the filter cartridges to improve the purification efficiency. Most air purifiers on the market only start with particle adsorption filters, which is the main technology used for indoor air purification; the fiber diameter, filter thickness and headwind speed used in the filtration are the three major factors affecting the filtration effect. At the same time, a significant disadvantage of this filtration technology is that the filter life is too short, the filter element is complicated to replace, and it does not have sterilization or higher-level negative ion generation functions. In addition, commercial air purifiers are expensive, large in size, ugly in appearance, and not suitable for use in homes or offices. At the same time, this structure has large wind resistance, which requires the fan to generate greater suction during purification, and the fan operation noise increases, resulting in a louder air purifier.

[0003] In addition, most traditional filters are disposable and generate a lot of waste when used. Traditional air filters will clog the filter element as more and more particulate matter accumulates, which will increase the fan's ability to drive the air exponentially. Summary of the invention
