[0062] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which 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 intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0063] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples to implement different structures of the present invention. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present invention, the parts and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present invention. In addition, the present invention can repeat reference numbers and / or letters in different examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity, and does not itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed. In addition, the present invention provides various specific processes and examples of materials, but those of ordinary skill in the art can be aware of the applicability of other processes and / or the use of other materials.

[0064] The air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0065] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the air conditioner 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention comprises: an air conditioner body 1 and an air guide component 2, wherein the air conditioner body 1 has an air duct 11, the air duct 11 comprises a plurality of air outlet sections 111, and the air conditioner 100 discharges air along the plurality of air outlet sections 111. The air guide component 2 comprises an air guide blade 20 disposed in the air duct 11, the air guide blade 20 comprises a plurality of blade portions 21, and the plurality of blade portions 21 are respectively matched with different air outlet sections 111.

[0066] It is worth noting that the number of blade portions 21 and the number of air outlet sections 111 are not limited, and the numbers of the two can be the same or different. For example, when there are two blade portions 21 and two air outlet sections 111, one blade portion 21 cooperates with one air outlet section 111, and the other blade portion 21 cooperates with the other air outlet section 111. For another example, when there are three blade portions 21 and three air outlet sections 111, the first blade portion 21 cooperates with the first air outlet section 111, the second blade portion 21 cooperates with the second air outlet section 111, and the third blade portion 21 cooperates with the third air outlet section 111.

[0067] Thus, the plurality of blade portions 21 can guide air to different air outlet sections 111 respectively, and adjust the air outlet direction of the air conditioner 100 , thereby improving the air supply range of the air conditioner 100 .

[0068] Among them, multiple blade portions 21 are integrally formed flexible parts. By integrating the blade portions 21 in different air outlet sections 111 into a single piece, compared with the related art of installing multiple blades separately, the present invention can complete the installation of multiple blade portions 21 at the same time in one installation process, thereby reducing the installation steps of the air guide component 2, simplifying the assembly process, and improving assembly efficiency.

[0069] In addition, compared with the method of connecting multiple blades separately in the related art, the connection between the blade parts 21 in the air guide blade 20 of the present invention can increase the area of ​​the air guide blade 20, which is beneficial to improving the air guiding effect.

[0070] Furthermore, since the blade portion 21 needs to move to adjust the direction of the airflow, the guide blade 20 is set as a flexible member, which can increase the movement range of the guide blade 20 and improve the air guiding effect of the air guiding component 2. The flexible guide blade 20 can also improve the fatigue damage caused by movement, which is conducive to extending the service life of the air guiding component 2.

[0071] According to the air conditioner 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, the blade parts 21 in the plurality of air outlet sections 111 are integrated into one piece, thereby simplifying the assembly process and improving the assembly efficiency. In addition, the blade parts 21 are integrated into one piece, and the area of ​​the air guide blades 20 can be increased, which is beneficial to improving the air guide effect. By setting the air guide blades 20 as an integrally formed flexible part, the air guide effect can be improved and the service life of the air guide blades 20 can be extended.

[0072] Optionally, the air guide vane 20 may be a PP (polypropylene) part, an ABS resin part or other resin parts.

[0073] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the air conditioner 100 further includes: a flow divider 3, which is arranged in the air duct 11 and between two adjacent air outlet sections 111. The flow divider 3 is used to divide the airflow flowing in the air duct 11 and guide the airflow to the two air outlet sections 111. The airflow divided by the flow divider 3 passes through the air guide vane 20 and is guided by the air guide vane 20, thereby adjusting the air outlet direction of the air conditioner 100.

[0074] The air guide vane 20 is arranged on the flow divider 3, and the flow divider 3 is provided with a plurality of air guide vanes 20 arranged at intervals along the length direction of the flow divider 3. In short, there are a plurality of air guide vanes 20 and they are all installed on the flow divider 3. By setting the flow divider 3 for diversion between two adjacent air outlet sections 111, the characteristics of the flow divider 3 being adjacent to two adjacent air outlet sections 111 are utilized to meet the installation position requirements of the air guide vane 20 having a plurality of blade portions 21. In this way, the airflow diverted by the flow divider 3 flows smoothly to the air guide vane 20, which can improve the air guiding effect. In addition, the air guide vane 20 is installed on the flow divider 3, and the plurality of air guide vanes 20 are preferentially integrated with the flow divider 3, which can further simplify the assembly process and improve the assembly efficiency.

[0075] In the first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Fig.12 As shown, the flow divider 3 and the air guide vanes 20 are integrally formed. By integrally forming the flow divider 3 and the plurality of air guide vanes 20, the plurality of air guide vanes 20 and the flow divider 3 are preferentially integrated, so that the flow divider 3 and the air guide vanes 20 can be assembled together, further simplifying the assembly process and improving the assembly efficiency.

[0076] It is worth noting that the materials of the flow divider 3 and the air guide vane 20 can be the same or different; the flow divider 3 and the air guide vane 20 can be injection molded once or twice, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0077] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6 and Figure 8 The blade portion 21 shown includes a connecting portion 212, and the blade portion 21 is connected to the diverter 3 via the connecting portion 212. Figure 5-Figure 8 As shown, the blade portion 21 has a thinned area 211 , and the wall thickness of the thinned area 211 is smaller than the wall thickness of the connecting portion 212 .

[0078] The connecting portion 212 is relatively thick, which can increase the contact area between the air guide blade 20 and the diverter 3, improve the connection stability between the air guide blade 20 and the diverter 3, reduce fatigue damage, and extend the service life of the air guide blade 20. For the design in which the air guide blade 20 and the diverter 3 are integrally formed, the connection strength between the air guide blade 20 and the diverter 3 can be improved by connecting the connecting portion 212 with a thicker wall thickness to the diverter 3, reduce the risk of breakage of the air guide blade 20, and improve the working reliability of the air guide blade 20. The thinning area 211 is relatively thin, and the thinning area 211 is provided to facilitate flexible deformation, increase the range of motion change of the air guide blade 20, and improve the air guiding effect of the air guide component 2.

[0079] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 8 As shown, the thinning area 211 includes thinning portions 2111 arranged at intervals along the length of the blade portion 21, and two adjacent thinning portions 2111 are connected by a reinforcing portion 2112, and the thickness of the reinforcing portion 2112 is greater than the thickness of the thinning portion 2111, wherein the wall thickness of the reinforcing portion 2112 is still less than the wall thickness of the connecting portion 212. By setting the thinner thinning portion 2111, the blade portion 21 can have good flexibility and a large degree of deformation, thereby improving the wind guiding effect. By setting the relatively thick reinforcing portion 2112, the strength of the thinning area 211 is improved while ensuring that the blade portion 21 meets the flexible deformation requirements, thereby improving the working reliability of the wind guide blade 20.

[0080] like Figure 8 and Fig.13 As shown, the thinning portion 2111 and the reinforcing portion 2112 are arranged alternately, that is, along the length direction of the blade portion 21, the wall thickness of the blade portion 21 changes alternately, so that the two side surfaces of the thinning area 211 become corrugated surfaces, and the guiding effect on the airflow can be improved. In addition, the wall thickness of the end portion where the reinforcing portion 2112 is connected to the thinning portion 2111 gradually decreases, so that the reinforcing portion 2112 is better transitionally connected to the thinning portion 2111, and the connection between the reinforcing portion 2112 and the thinning portion 2111 is smooth, reducing the airflow resistance. The unchanged wall thickness of the thinning portion 2111 can make the surface of the blade portion 21 smoother, which can further reduce the airflow resistance, thereby ensuring smooth air supply.

[0081] It is worth noting that in order to ensure that the wall thickness of the blade portion 21 can change alternately between thin and thick along the length direction, there are at least three thinning portions 2111 and reinforcement portions 2112 in total, that is, the blade portion 21 includes at least two thinning portions 2111 and one reinforcement portion 2112.

[0082] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 and Fig.13As shown, the flow divider 3 includes two guide plates 31, and the outflow ends of the two guide plates 31 extend away from each other in the direction of the corresponding two air outlet sections 111, thereby guiding the airflow to flow to the air outlet sections 111 corresponding to the guide plates 31, thereby improving the airflow flow effect.

[0083] In some embodiments, Fig. 9 As shown, a reinforcing rib 32 is provided between the two guide plates 31 to enhance the structural strength of the flow divider 3 and enhance the working stability of the flow divider 3 .

[0084] like Fig. 9 and Fig.19 As shown, there are multiple reinforcing ribs 32, and the multiple reinforcing ribs 32 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the diverter 3. The structural strength of the diverter 3 can be further improved by arranging multiple reinforcing ribs 32.

[0085] In some embodiments, the cross-sectional extension line of at least one guide plate 31 has a bending area 31c. Compared with the guide plate 31 with an arc-shaped cross-section, this design method can increase the structural complexity of the diverter 3, thereby improving the structural strength of the diverter 3 and improving the working stability of the diverter 3.

[0086] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 9-11 As shown, a guide plate 31 in the flow divider 3 has a bending area 31c. The guide plate 31 has at least one bending portion to form the bending area 31c. Optionally, there may be multiple bending portions. The guide plate 31 has multiple bending portions to form the bending area 31c. The guide plate 31 is gradually formed into an arc-like structure through multiple bending portions, thereby improving the obstruction to the airflow and improving the fluidity of the airflow, so as to improve the wind guiding effect of the guide plate 31.

[0087] In other embodiments of the present invention, the flow divider 3 includes two guide plates 31 , and the cross-sectional extension lines of the two guide plates 31 both have a bending area 31 c , which enhances the structural strength of the flow divider 3 and improves the working reliability of the flow divider 3 .

[0088] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig. 9 and Fig.19 As shown, the flow divider 3 includes two guide plates 31, wherein the cross-sectional extension line of one of the guide plates 31 has a bending area 31c, and a reinforcing rib 32 is further provided between the two guide plates 31 to further enhance the structural strength of the flow divider 3 and improve the working stability of the flow divider.

[0089] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 and Fig.13As shown, the outflow ends of the two guide plates 31 extend away from each other, and the inflow end of one guide plate 31 extends to intersect and connect with the other guide plate 31. The inflow ends of the two guide plates 31 are connected to each other, and the airflow passes through the diverter 3 and is divided by the two guide plates 31, and flows into the corresponding air outlet section 111 along the extension direction of the two guide plates 31, and the airflow of the air conditioner 100 is discharged along the air outlet section 111.

[0090] In the second embodiment of the present invention, Fig.14 As shown, the flow divider 3 is assembled and connected with the air guide vane 20. By integrating the air guide vane 20 and the flow divider 3 first, the flow divider 3 and the air guide vane 20 can be assembled together, which further simplifies the assembly process and improves the assembly efficiency.

[0091] The flow divider 3 and the air guide vane 20 are formed separately and then assembled and connected to each other. Compared with the design method of integral molding, although the process is slightly complicated, the restrictions on the material selection of the flow divider 3 and the air guide vane 20 are reduced, and the materials of the two can be flexibly selected. In addition, the flow divider 3 and the air guide vane 20 are formed separately, and the flow divider 3 and the air guide vane 20 can be stored separately, which is more convenient for storage and transportation compared with the method of integral molding of the flow divider 3 and the air guide vane 20.

[0092] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 15-18 As shown, the splitter 3 has a first mounting portion 3b, and the air guide vane 20 has a second mounting portion 20b. The first mounting portion 3b and the second mounting portion 20b are plug-fitted and connected by fasteners, so that the splitter 3 and the air guide vane 20 are stably assembled.

[0093] like Fig.17 , Fig.18 and Fig. 20 As shown, the first mounting portion 3b on the flow divider 3 is a mounting groove, the second mounting portion 20b on the air guide vane 20 is a mounting block, and the second mounting portion 20b is inserted into the first mounting portion 3b to connect the flow divider 3 and the air guide vane 20 to each other. It can be understood that the air guide vanes 20 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the flow divider 3, and the thickness of the air guide vanes 20 is relatively small, so it is more reasonable to set the mounting block on the air guide vane 20 and set the mounting groove on the flow divider 3, which can improve the matching stability of the flow divider 3 and the air guide vane 20.

[0094] like Fig. 20 and Fig.23As shown, a first fixing hole 3b1 is provided on the wall surface of the first mounting portion 3b away from the second mounting portion 20b, and a second fixing hole 20b1 is provided at the end of the second mounting portion 20b inserted into the first mounting portion 3b. When the second mounting portion 20b is inserted into the first mounting portion 3b, the first fixing hole 3b1 and the second fixing hole 20b1 are opposite to each other, and the fastener passes through the first fixing hole 3b1 and extends into the second fixing hole 20b1, thereby fixing the flow divider 3 and the air guide vane 20. Optionally, the fastener may be a screw, and the second fixing hole 20b1 is a threaded hole. The screw passes through the first fixing hole 3b1 and is threadedly connected with the second fixing hole 20b1, thereby fixing the flow divider 3 and the air guide vane 20. Also optionally, the fastener is a screw, and the first fixing hole 3b1 and the second fixing hole 20b1 are both threaded holes. The screw is threadedly matched with the first fixing hole 3b1 and the second fixing hole 20b1, thereby fixing the flow divider 3 and the air guide vane 20.

[0095] In other embodiments of the present invention, the splitter 3 has a first mounting portion 3b, the guide vane 20 has a second mounting portion 20b, and the first mounting portion 3b is snap-fitted with the second mounting portion 20b to assemble and connect the splitter 3 and the guide vane 20.

[0096] The above-mentioned assembly method of the diverter 3 and the guide vane 20 is only for illustration. After reading the above-mentioned technical solution, ordinary technicians can obviously understand that other assembly methods, such as mortise and tenon fitting, can be applied to the assembly scheme of the diverter 3 and the guide vane 20, which also falls within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0097] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, the air conditioner body 1 also includes an air outlet frame 13, the air outlet frame 13 forms an air outlet section 111, and the air guide vane 20 and the flow divider 3 are both arranged on the air outlet frame 13. After the air guide vane 20 and the flow divider 3 are preferentially integrated, the air guide vane 20 and the flow divider 3 are installed together on the air outlet frame 13. Fig.19 and Fig.23 As shown, the flow divider 3 is provided with a mounting hole 33 and a limiting hole 34. When the integrated air guide vane 20 and the flow divider 3 are mounted on the air outlet frame 13, as shown in FIG. Fig.29 As shown, the air outlet frame 13 first positions the integrated air guide blades 20 and the diverter 3 through the limiting holes 34 , and then the mounting member passes through the mounting holes 33 to fix the diverter 3 to the air outlet frame 13 .

[0098] In some embodiments, Figure 4 and Fig.24As shown, the air outlet frame 13 includes a first air outlet frame 131 and a second air outlet frame 132, which jointly limit the air outlet section 111, wherein the integrated guide blades 20 and the diverter 3 are installed on the first air outlet frame 131, and then the first air outlet frame 131 and the second air outlet frame 132 are installed on each other.

[0099] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig.24 As shown, the air conditioner 100 further includes a tie rod 4, the length direction of which extends along the length direction of the diverter 3, and tie rods 4 are respectively provided on both sides of the diverter of the diverter 3, and the tie rods 4 are connected to a plurality of blades 21 on the same side of the diverter. The tie rod 4 can simultaneously drive the plurality of blades 21 to move, and for example, the tie rod 4 can drive the blades 21 to swing along the length direction of the diverter 3, thereby guiding the airflow passing through and adjusting the air outlet direction; for another example, the tie rod 4 can drive the blades 21 to deflect in a predetermined direction to guide the airflow.

[0100] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig.24 and Fig.25 As shown, the air conditioner 100 further includes a driving assembly 5, which is disposed at one end of the length of the tie rod 4 and can apply a force to the tie rod 4 along the length direction of the tie rod 4. The driving assembly 5 provides power for the movement of the tie rod 4, and applies a force to the tie rod 4 along the length direction of the diverter 3, so that the tie rod 4 can drive the blade portion 21 to move along the length direction of the diverter 3, drive the blade portion 21 to swing, and guide the airflow.

[0101] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig.24 , Fig.25 and Fig.28 As shown, the driving assembly 5 includes a motor 51, a crank 52 and a connecting rod 53. One end of the crank 52 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 51, and the other end of the crank 52 is connected to one end of the connecting rod 53 for relative rotation. The other end of the connecting rod 53 is hooked and connected to the pull rod 4. The motor 51 provides power, and the crank 52 is connected between the motor 51 shaft and the connecting rod 53. The crank 52 converts the rotation of the motor 51 shaft into movement along the length direction of the diverter 3 and movement in the horizontal direction. The connecting rod 53 can drive the pull rod 4 to move along the length direction of the pull rod 4.

[0102] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig.25 and Fig.28 As shown, the connecting rod 53 is formed into a ring portion at the connection with the pull rod 4, and the pull rod 4 is formed into a hook portion at the connection with the connecting rod 53. The hook portion extends into the ring portion and engages with the positioning groove provided in the ring portion to stably connect the connecting rod 53 and the pull rod 4, avoid relative movement between the connecting rod 53 and the pull rod 4, and improve the movement reliability of the pull rod 4.

[0103] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 and Fig.30 As shown, the air conditioner 100 has a first air outlet 101 and a second air outlet 102 on both sides of the width. Figure 2 and Fig.31 As shown, the air duct 11 includes a crossflow air duct section 112 extending axially along the length direction of the air conditioner 100, and the crossflow fan wheel 7 is arranged in the crossflow air duct section 112, and the crossflow fan wheel 7 provides a flowing airflow. The air outlet section 111 is connected to the downstream of the crossflow air duct section 112, and the air outlet section 111 is divided into two and respectively includes a first air outlet section 111a and a second air outlet section 111b. The air outlet direction of the first air outlet section 111a and the air outlet direction of the crossflow air duct section 112 are both toward the direction of the first air outlet 101, and the air outlet direction of the second air outlet section 111b is toward the direction of the second air outlet 102. The flow divider 3 is arranged close to the second air outlet 102 relative to the first air outlet 101.

[0104] The airflow delivered by the crossflow impeller 7 flows out from the crossflow duct 11, and after being diverted by the diverter 3, flows to the first air outlet section 111a and the second air outlet section 111b respectively. The airflow flows along the first air outlet section 111a and the second air outlet section 111b and finally flows out from the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102 respectively, and air is discharged from the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102 of the air conditioner 100.

[0105] It is worth noting that, due to the air outlet form of the crossflow impeller 7, the crossflow duct section 112 has a volute tongue portion, and the outflow direction of the crossflow duct section 112 is biased toward the first air outlet 101, so that the airflow flowing toward the second air outlet 102 is less than the airflow flowing toward the first air outlet 101. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, the flow divider 3 is arranged close to the second air outlet 102, so that the air supply volume of the first air outlet section 111a and the second air outlet section 111b is relatively uniform, so that the air outlet volume of the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102 is balanced, thereby improving the air supply effect of the air conditioner 100.

[0106] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 and Fig.12 As shown, there is a gap P between the blade portion 21 matched with the second air outlet section 111b and the diverter 3. As can be seen intuitively from the figure, the length dimension of the blade portion 21 matched with the second air outlet section 111b is shorter than the length dimension of the blade portion 21 matched with the first air outlet section 111a. Therefore, by providing the gap P between the blade portion 21 matched with the second air outlet section 111b and the diverter 3, the deformation amplitude range of the blade portion 21 matched with the second air outlet section 111b can be increased, and the wind guiding effect of the blade portion 21 matched with the second air outlet section 111b can be improved.

[0107] In some embodiments of the present invention, the width of the gap P between the blade portion 21 matched with the second air outlet section 111b and the diverter 3 is greater than or equal to 5 mm. If the width of the gap P is too large or too small, it is not conducive to the work of the blade portion 21. When the width of the gap P is too large, the blade portion 21 matched with the second air outlet section 111b is easily broken, which will shorten the service life of the air guide vane 20; when the width of the gap P is too small, the deformation range of the blade portion 21 is small, which is not conducive to the air guide work of the blade portion 21.

[0108] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 and Fig.24 As shown, the diverter 3 includes a first guide plate 311 and a second guide plate 312 , which are arranged along the width direction of the air conditioner 100 , and the length directions of the first guide plate 311 and the second guide plate 312 both extend along the length direction of the air conditioner 100 .

[0109] like Fig.31 As shown, the outflow end 311b of the first guide plate extends relative to the second guide plate 312 toward the first air outlet section 111a for guiding the air to the first air outlet section 111a, and the outflow end 312b of the second guide plate extends relative to the first guide plate 311 toward the second air outlet section 111b for guiding the air to the second air outlet section 111b, wherein the inflow end 311a of the first guide plate is spaced apart from the inflow end 312a of the second guide plate, and intersects and connects with the leeward surface 312c of the second guide plate. In other words, the inflow end 311a of the first guide plate is arranged away from the cross-flow air duct section 112 compared to the inflow end 312a of the second guide plate.

[0110] The cross-flow air duct section 112 has a volute tongue portion, and the outflow direction of the cross-flow air duct section 112 is biased toward the direction of the first air outlet 101, so that the airflow flowing toward the second air outlet 102 is less than the airflow flowing toward the first air outlet 101. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, the inlet end 311a of the first guide plate is arranged farther away from the cross-flow air duct section 112 than the inlet end 312a of the second guide plate, which is conducive to the second guide plate 312 to divert more airflow, so that the air supply volume of the first air outlet section 111a and the second air outlet section 111b is relatively uniform, so that the air supply volume of the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102 is balanced, and the air supply effect of the air conditioner 100 is improved.

[0111] Since the outflow direction of the cross-flow air duct section is biased toward the first air outlet, the airflow will naturally be biased to flow into the first air outlet section. Therefore, in some specific embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2As shown, the cross-sectional shape of the second guide plate 312 is an arc, which improves the obstruction to the airflow, improves the fluidity of the airflow, and is conducive to diverting more airflow, so as to balance the airflow of the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102. The cross-sectional extension line of the first guide plate 311 has a bending area, thereby improving the structural strength of the diverter 3 and improving the working reliability of the diverter 3.

[0112] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig.30 As shown, the length direction of the air conditioner 100 is the up and down direction, the width direction of the air conditioner 100 is the left and right direction, the length directions of the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102 both extend in the up and down direction, the first air outlet 101 is located on the left, and the second air outlet 102 is located on the right. The air conditioner 100 also has a third air outlet 103 arranged higher or lower than the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102. By setting the third air outlet 103, the air outlet coverage area of ​​the air conditioner 100 in the vertical direction can be made wider.

[0113] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the length direction of the flow divider 3 extends in the up-down direction, and the wind guide vanes 20 are multiple and arranged at intervals in the up-down direction. Fig.31 As shown, the cross-flow air duct section 112 and the air outlet section 111 form a first air duct 11a. Fig.32 As shown, the air duct 11 further includes a second air duct 11 b , an inlet of the second air duct 11 b is adapted to be in communication with the first air duct 11 a , and an outlet of the second air duct 11 b is in communication with the third air outlet 103 .

[0114] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig.30 and Fig.32 As shown, the third air outlet 103 is arranged above the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102. The flow air provided by the crossflow impeller 7 can flow out from the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102 along the first air duct 11a, and can also flow out from the third air outlet 103 along the second air duct.

[0115] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102 are arranged on the air outlet frame 13. Figure 4 As shown, the air conditioner 100 further includes a first air guide plate 61 disposed at the first air outlet 101, and a second air guide plate 62 disposed at the second air outlet 102. The air conditioner 100 further includes an air guide plate motor 63 for controlling the first air guide plate 61 and the second air guide plate 62 to move.

[0116] Optionally, the first air guide plate 61 and the second air guide plate 62 are opening and closing doors, and the first air guide plate 61 and the second air guide plate 62 are rotatably arranged at the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102 to open and close the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102. When the first air guide plate 61 and the second air guide plate 62 open the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102, the air conditioner 100 simultaneously supplies air through the first air outlet 101, the second air outlet 102 and the third air outlet 103; when the first air guide plate 61 and the second air guide plate 62 cover the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102, the air conditioner 100 supplies air through the third air outlet 103 or the air conditioner 100 does not supply air. The first air guide plate 61 and the second air guide plate 62 can seal the interior of the air conditioner body 1 when the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102 are not working, thereby preventing dust from falling in, improving the cleanliness of the interior of the air conditioner 100, and improving the working reliability of the air conditioner 100.

[0117] Optionally, a plurality of small ventilation holes are provided on the first air guide plate 61 and the second air guide plate 62. When the first air guide plate 61 and the second air guide plate 62 open the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102, the air conditioner 100 supplies air normally through the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102; when the first air guide plate 61 and the second air guide plate 62 cover the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102, the airflow to the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102 is discharged through the ventilation holes, and the airflow is dispersed into a plurality of tiny airflows, which improves the direct blowing to the human body, realizes low wind feeling air supply, and improves the user's comfort. And because the third air outlet 103 is arranged at a higher position, the airflow flowing out of the third air outlet 103 will not directly blow onto the human body. Therefore, when the first air outlet 101 and the second air outlet 102 are supplying air with a low wind sense, the third air outlet 103 can supply air normally to supplement the air flow, so as to improve the problem of small air volume during low wind sense air supply, and further enhance the air supply effect of the air conditioner 100.

[0118] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig.30 As shown, the air conditioner 100 is a vertical air conditioner.

[0119] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig.30 and Fig.32 As shown, the air conditioner body 1 also includes a panel assembly 12, which is connected to the air outlet frame 13. The panel assembly 12 includes a display panel 121 and a lower panel 122. The display panel 121 is located below the upper panel. The panel assembly 12 can be used to display information such as indoor temperature and wind speed of the air conditioner 100. It can also be used to adjust the operation of the air conditioner 100 to enhance the intelligence of the air conditioner 100.

[0120] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig.30and Fig.32 As shown, the air conditioner body 1 further includes a top cover 14 and a bottom plate 16, the top cover 14 is located at the top of the air conditioner 100, and the bottom plate 16 is located at the bottom of the air conditioner 100. Optionally, a third air outlet 103 is provided on the top cover 14 to improve the air supply range of the air conditioner 100 in the vertical direction.

[0121] In some embodiments of the present invention, Fig.30 and Fig.32 As shown, the air conditioner body 1 also includes a rear box assembly 15 , which is connected to the air outlet frame 13 , and the crossflow impeller 7 is arranged in the rear box assembly 15 . The rear box assembly 15 and the air outlet frame 13 assembly together define the air outlet duct 11 .
