The evaporator assembly and filter assembly are the first contact medium for the outside air to enter the air conditioner, and dust is easily accumulated on the evaporator surface or filter holes. Therefore, cleaning and sterilizing the evaporator assembly and filter assembly can effectively improve the user's comfort and the reliability of product use.

[0045] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0046] Please refer to Figures 1 to 15 The present application provides an air conditioner, comprising an evaporator assembly 100 and a filter assembly 200, wherein the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200 are arranged opposite to each other, and the air conditioner further comprises: a cleaning assembly 300, which is arranged between the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200, and the cleaning assembly 300 comprises a mounting bracket 310, a first cleaning component 320 and a second cleaning component 330, wherein the first cleaning component 320 and the second cleaning component 330 are respectively arranged on the mounting bracket 310, the first cleaning component 320 is used for cleaning, and the second cleaning component 330 is used for sterilization; wherein the mounting bracket 310 is movably arranged at a position between the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200, and at the same time, the mounting bracket 310 is rotatably arranged around a predetermined axis, so that the first cleaning component 320 cleans the evaporator assembly 100 or the filter assembly 200, and the second cleaning component 330 sterilizes the evaporator assembly 100 or the filter assembly 200.

[0047] The air conditioner provided according to the present application includes an evaporator assembly 100, a filter assembly 200 and a cleaning assembly 300. The evaporator assembly 100 is arranged opposite to the filter assembly 200, and the cleaning assembly 300 is arranged between the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200. The cleaning assembly 300 includes a mounting bracket 310, a first cleaning component 320 and a second cleaning component 330. The first cleaning component 320 and the second cleaning component 330 are respectively arranged on the mounting bracket 310, the first cleaning component 320 is used for cleaning, and the second cleaning component 330 is used for sterilization; wherein the mounting bracket 310 is movably arranged at a position between the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200, and at the same time, the mounting bracket 310 is rotatably arranged around a predetermined axis, so that the first cleaning component 320 cleans the evaporator assembly 100 or the filter assembly 200, and the second cleaning component 330 sterilizes the evaporator assembly 100 or the filter assembly 200. The first cleaning component 320 and the second cleaning component 330 are driven to move by the mounting bracket 310, so that the first cleaning component 320 repeatedly cleans the filter assembly 200 or the evaporator assembly 100. At the same time, the second cleaning component 330 is used to irradiate the filter assembly 200 or the evaporator assembly 100 with sterilizing light, so that the air conditioner can automatically clean and sterilize during operation. The irradiation angle and range of the second cleaning component 330 can be optimized by rotating the mounting bracket 310 to ensure that the sterilizing light covers all areas that need to be sterilized, effectively cleaning the dust and bacteria between the evaporator and the filter, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency, improving the hygiene standards of the air conditioner use environment, and reducing potential threats to user health.

[0048] The position mobility of the mounting bracket 310 ensures that the first cleaning component 320 can contact various parts of the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200, especially the area where the filter is less than 35 mm from the evaporator, where the relative suction force generated by the rotation of the fan blade is large and particulate dust is easily accumulated. The movement and cleaning of the first cleaning component 320 can effectively remove the dust and improve the air quality and equipment performance.

[0049] Specifically, there is a gap between the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200, the gap extends along the circumferential direction of the air conditioner body, and the cleaning assembly 300 is movably arranged along the extending direction of the gap. In this way, the cleaning assembly 300 can cover the entire surface of the evaporator and the filter, including the side and the curved part, to ensure the comprehensiveness and depth of cleaning, effectively remove the accumulated dust and bacteria, and improve the cooling efficiency and air treatment quality of the air conditioner. The mobility of the cleaning assembly allows it to adjust its position as needed, flexibly cope with evaporators and filters of different sizes and shapes, improve cleaning efficiency, and reduce the time and energy consumption required for cleaning.

[0050] like Figures 11 to 15As shown, the interval includes a middle moving area, a first end moving area and a second end moving area, the middle moving area is opposite to the middle of the evaporator assembly 100, and the middle moving area is located between the first end moving area and the second end moving area; when the cleaning assembly 300 is in the middle moving area, the mounting bracket 310 is arranged to reciprocate along the extension direction of the middle moving area; when the cleaning assembly 300 is in the first end moving area or the second end moving area, the mounting bracket 310 is arranged to reciprocate around a predetermined axis within a set angle range. By subdividing the cleaning range into three areas, the cleaning assembly 300 can more accurately target different parts of the evaporator assembly 100, especially the central area, for efficient cleaning. Since the central area is closest to the suction force of the fan blades and is prone to dust accumulation, the design of the middle moving area ensures the removal of this part of the dust, while the first and second end moving areas clean both ends of the evaporator to prevent the occurrence of cleaning dead corners.

[0051] When the cleaning component 300 is working in the end moving area, the rotational movement of the mounting bracket 310 can adjust the angle of the ultraviolet sterilization lamp, so that the sterilization lamp can irradiate the evaporator component 100 and the filter from different directions. This multi-angle irradiation improves the comprehensiveness and depth of sterilization, and effectively eliminates microorganisms hidden in the pores of the evaporator component and the filter.

[0052] In the specific implementation process, the evaporator assembly 100 includes an evaporator bracket 110, on which a limiting portion 120 is provided, and the limiting portion 120 extends along a first arc track; the cleaning assembly 300 also includes: a first support seat 340, which is movably provided in the limiting portion 120, a mounting bracket 310 is connected to the first support seat 340, and the mounting bracket 310 is driven to move between the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200 by the first support seat 340, and the mounting bracket 310 is rotatably provided around a predetermined axis relative to the first support seat 340. Through the movement of the first support seat 340 in the limiting portion 120, the mounting bracket 310 can accurately cover various parts of the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200 along the limiting portion 120 extending along the first arc track on the evaporator bracket 110. This design enables the cleaning assembly 300 to be more comprehensive during cleaning and sterilization, effectively avoiding the dead corners that are difficult to cover in the prior art, thereby significantly improving the efficiency of cleaning and sterilization. The mounting bracket 310 is rotatably arranged around a predetermined axis relative to the first support base 340, which means that the cleaning assembly 300 can adjust its angle and position according to different cleaning needs. It can not only efficiently clean and sterilize specific areas of the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200, but can also be folded up when not in use to reduce occupied space and improve the compactness and aesthetics of the air conditioner.

[0053] Through the cooperation between the limiting portion 120 on the evaporator bracket 110 and the first support seat 340 in the cleaning assembly 300, the accuracy and flexibility of the movement of the cleaning assembly 300 between the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200 are ensured. At the same time, the rotatability of the mounting bracket 310 further optimizes the coverage and efficiency of the cleaning corner sterilization, thereby significantly improving the cleaning performance, user experience and maintenance convenience of the air conditioner.

[0054] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the cleaning assembly 300 also includes: a first driving component 350, which is arranged on the first support seat 340, and the first driving component 350 includes a first driving shaft, which is connected to the mounting bracket 310 by driving, and the mounting bracket 310 is driven to rotate by the first driving shaft. Preferably, the first driving component 350 is a first driving motor. The first driving shaft can directly drive the mounting bracket 310 to rotate, which means that the cleaning assembly does not need a complex intermediate transmission structure and can directly and efficiently act on the target area, whether it is the evaporator surface or the filter mesh hole. This direct drive method reduces energy loss and ensures the efficient operation of the cleaning assembly. Through the rotation of the first driving component 350, the cleaning assembly 300 can achieve a wider range of coverage. In the technical solution of the present application, the cleaning assembly is not limited to fixed angle cleaning, but can rotate within a specific angle range (such as ± 30 °), which enables the ultraviolet germicidal lamp and brush to reach more areas of the evaporator and the filter, especially those hard-to-reach corners, thereby improving the comprehensiveness of cleaning and sterilization.

[0055] The rotation path of the first drive shaft is combined with the motion trajectory of the mounting bracket 310 to form a more optimized cleaning trajectory. Figure 4 In the figure, we can see that the movement of the ultraviolet germicidal lamp assembly on the evaporator bracket forms specific positions (the middle moving area, the first end moving area and the second end moving area), and through the control of the first driving component 350, the ultraviolet germicidal lamp can perform more precise rotation movements at these positions, such as rotation from 0° to 60° in the second end moving area, which ensures the controllability of the irradiation angle of the germicidal lamp, reduces irradiation of non-target areas, and protects user safety.

[0056] Specifically, the first support seat 340 includes: a first seat body 341, a second seat body 342 and a third seat body 343 connected in sequence, the first seat body 341 and the third seat body 343 are arranged opposite to each other to enclose an escape space between the first seat body 341, the second seat body 342 and the third seat body 343, and at least part of the evaporator bracket 110 is arranged in the escape space; wherein, the first seat body 341 is arranged in the limit portion 120, and the first driving component 350 is arranged on the third seat body 343. This design enables the first support seat 340 to fit closely with the structure of the evaporator bracket 110, effectively utilize the limited internal space of the air conditioner, reduce the overall occupied volume, and achieve the goal of miniaturization and lightness of the air conditioner. The design of the escape space avoids the interference problem that may be caused by direct contact between the first support seat 340 and the evaporator bracket 110, and ensures the independent movement and function realization of each component. The relative arrangement of the first seat body 341 and the third seat body 343, and the arrangement of the first seat body 341 in the limiting portion 120, form a stable support structure, which enhances the stability of the ultraviolet germicidal lamp assembly during rotation and self-rotation. At the same time, the second seat body 342, as the middle part connecting the first seat body 341 and the third seat body 343, can provide additional support and balance to ensure the reliable operation of the entire cleaning system.

[0057] The first base body 341 is provided with a first roller 344 , and the first roller 344 is embedded in the limiting portion 120 , so as to move more smoothly on the first supporting base 340 .

[0058] In the embodiments provided in this application, Fig.10 As shown, the limiting part 120 includes a first limiting groove 121 and a second limiting groove 122, the second limiting groove 122 is arranged near the filter assembly 200 relative to the first limiting groove 121, and the first support seat 340 is movably arranged in the second limiting groove 122; the cleaning assembly 300 also includes: a transmission component 360, which is movably arranged in the first limiting groove 121; a connecting member 370, the two ends of the connecting member 370 are respectively connected to the transmission component 360 and the first support seat 340, and the transmission component 360 drives the first support seat 340 to move in the second limiting groove 122 through the connecting member 370. The arrangement of the first limiting groove 121 and the second limiting groove 122 enables the transmission component 360 to move along the first limiting groove 121, and drives the first support seat 340 to move in the second limiting groove 122 through the connecting member 370. This design ensures that the moving path of the cleaning assembly 300 is precisely controllable, and avoids blindness and ineffective movement in cleaning and sterilization operations.

[0059] The cleaning component 300 is driven to move between the evaporator component 100 and the filter component 200 by the movement of the transmission component 360. Combined with the cleaning function of the first cleaning component 320 and the sterilization function of the second cleaning component 330, the entire cleaning and sterilization process is efficient and thorough, reducing the cleaning cycle and time, and improving the operating efficiency and user satisfaction of the air conditioner. The coordinated use of the first limiting groove 121 and the second limiting groove 122, as well as the compact layout of the cleaning component 300, helps to save the internal space of the air conditioner, making the design of the air conditioner more miniaturized and lightweight, and easy to install and transport. By driving the transmission component 360 and moving the first support seat 340, the irradiation angle and range of the second cleaning component 330 can be adjusted to ensure that the sterilization light can effectively cover the entire surface of the evaporator component 100 and the filter component 200, thereby improving the comprehensiveness and depth of sterilization.

[0060] Preferably, the first limiting groove 121 and the second limiting groove 122 are arc grooves respectively, and the transmission component 360 extends along the second arc track. The cleaning assembly 300 also includes: a second driving component 380, which is arranged on the evaporator bracket 110, and the second driving component 380 is connected to the transmission component 360, and the transmission component 360 is driven by the second driving component 380 to move in the first limiting groove 121. The design of the arc groove ensures the precise trajectory of the cleaning assembly 300 when moving, avoids the cleaning dead corners that may be caused by linear motion, and improves the comprehensiveness of cleaning and sterilization. The coordinated use of the second driving component 380 and the transmission component 360 enables the cleaning assembly 300 to move along a predetermined arc track, thereby enhancing the coverage and operation accuracy of the cleaning assembly on the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200.

[0061] The addition of the second driving component 380 and the transmission component 360 not only provides the cleaning component 300 with the ability to move along an arc trajectory, but also provides flexibility for adjusting the movement path of the cleaning component. The shape and size of the first limiting groove 121 and the second limiting groove 122 can be adjusted according to different evaporator and filter mesh structures to adapt to different cleaning requirements, thereby improving the adaptability of the cleaning component.

[0062] The transmission component 360 is preferably a rack, the second driving component 380 includes a driving gear 381 and a second driving motor 382, ​​the second driving motor 382 is drivingly connected to the driving gear 381, the driving gear 381 is meshed with the rack, and the driving gear 381 drives the rack to move during rotation, and the transmission component 360 is also provided with a protruding plate 361, the protruding plate 361 extends toward the direction of the first support seat 340, the protruding plate 361 is connected to one end of the connecting member 370 through a first connecting pin 371, and the other end of the connecting member 370 is connected to the first seat body 341 through a second connecting pin. The evaporator bracket 110 is provided with a top cover 140, and the top cover 140 is provided with an avoidance opening, which is arranged opposite to the transmission component 360, and the transmission component 360 is avoided through the avoidance opening.

[0063] In the present application, the limiting portion 120 also includes a third limiting groove 123, which is arranged at one end of the evaporator bracket 110 close to the water receiving tray 400 of the air conditioner, and the air conditioner also includes: a second support seat 500, which is movably arranged in the third limiting groove 123, and the end of the mounting bracket 310 away from the first supporting seat 340 is connected to the second supporting seat 500. The cooperation between the second supporting seat 500 and the third limiting groove 123 provides an additional support point for the cleaning component 300, especially when the cleaning component moves along the interval between the evaporator component and the filter assembly. This stability can ensure that the cleaning component is more accurate when performing cleaning and sterilization tasks, and reduces the cleaning dead angle caused by movement deviation. Among them, a second roller 510 is arranged on the second supporting seat 500, and the second roller 510 is embedded in the third limiting groove 123. When the mounting bracket 310 moves, the second roller 510 rotates to make the mounting bracket 310 move smoothly.

[0064] By providing a third limiting groove 123 at one end of the evaporator support 110 close to the water receiving tray 400 to guide the movement of the second support base 500, the cleaning path of the cleaning assembly 300 in the bottom area of ​​the evaporator assembly 100 can be accurately controlled. This design avoids the ineffective stroke that may exist in the traditional cleaning method and improves the cleaning efficiency.

[0065] In the specific implementation process, Figures 6 to 9As shown, the mounting bracket 310 includes a first mounting portion 311 and a second mounting portion 312 arranged oppositely, a first cleaning component 320 is arranged on the first mounting portion 311, and a second cleaning component 330 is arranged on the second mounting portion 312. The cleaning (first cleaning component 320) and sterilization (second cleaning component 330) functions are respectively arranged on two opposite parts of the mounting bracket, so that the two functions can be operated independently without affecting each other, and can work together when needed to improve the cleaning efficiency and sterilization effect. By arranging the first cleaning component and the second cleaning component relative to each other, more comprehensive cleaning and sterilization coverage can be achieved without increasing the additional space requirements, so that the cleaning component 300 can play the greatest role in a limited space, which is conducive to the compact design of the air conditioner. The design allows the second cleaning component 330 (ultraviolet sterilization lamp) and the first cleaning component 320 (brush) to work at different angles, which is crucial for covering different areas on the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200, especially when dealing with complex shapes or curved surfaces. The first cleaning component 320 and the second cleaning component 330 are fixed on different mounting parts, which can reduce direct contact and friction between the two components, reduce wear and tear, and extend service life.

[0066] Since the first cleaning component 320 and the second cleaning component 330 are respectively arranged on both sides of the mounting bracket, when one of the components needs to be maintained or replaced, it can be operated independently without affecting the other component, thereby simplifying the maintenance process and reducing the maintenance cost.

[0067] In the specific implementation process, there are multiple second cleaning components 330, and the multiple second cleaning components 330 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the mounting bracket 310. There are multiple second mounting parts 312, and the multiple second mounting parts 312 are arranged one by one with the multiple second cleaning components 330. The arrangement of multiple second cleaning components 330 can ensure the uniform distribution of sterilization light on the surface of the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200, avoid the sterilization blind area that may be generated by a single light source due to the limitations of the irradiation angle and range, and improve the comprehensiveness and uniformity of sterilization. The increase in the number of second cleaning components 330 means an increase in the total irradiation power, which allows the sterilization process to be completed faster, reduces the waiting time for users, and improves the use efficiency and user experience of the product. The multiple second cleaning components 330 work in conjunction with the multiple first cleaning components 320 (cleaning components) to more effectively remove bacteria and dust on the evaporator and the filter. The sterilization immediately after cleaning can ensure that the microorganisms that may be left over during the cleaning process are completely eliminated to avoid secondary contamination.

[0068] like Figure 7As shown, the first mounting portion 311 includes a first buckle 3110 and a second buckle 3111, the first buckle 3110 is arranged on the first side of the first cleaning component 320, the second buckle 3111 is arranged on the second side of the first cleaning component 320, and the first buckle 3110 and the second buckle 3111 are arranged alternately along the length direction of the mounting bracket 310; there are multiple first mounting portions 311, and the multiple first mounting portions 311 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the mounting bracket 310. The first buckle 3110 and the second buckle 3111 are arranged alternately along the length direction of the mounting bracket 310, and this layout can evenly distribute the mounting force of the first cleaning component 320, thereby enhancing its stability during the cleaning process, avoiding the displacement or loosening of the cleaning component during operation, and ensuring the accuracy and effect of cleaning. Multiple first mounting portions 311 are spaced apart along the length direction of the mounting bracket 310, so that the first cleaning component 320 can fit the surface of the evaporator assembly 100 more closely, thereby expanding the contact area for cleaning and improving the cleaning efficiency. Especially when cleaning the curved part of the evaporator assembly, multi-point support can better adapt to the surface morphology and ensure cleaning without dead angles.

[0069] Through multi-point support and staggered arrangement, the first cleaning component 320 is subjected to more uniform force during operation, reducing wear or damage caused by excessive force on a single point, thereby improving the overall durability and service life of the cleaning component 300. The stable installation of the first mounting portion 311 ensures the safety of the cleaning component 300 during operation, avoids the potential safety hazards caused by loose or falling components, and improves the operational reliability of the entire cleaning system.

[0070] Furthermore, if Fig. 9As shown, the second cleaning component 330 is provided with a first protruding body 331 and a second protruding body 332, and the second protruding body 332 is provided with a first connecting hole 3320. The second mounting portion 312 includes: a positioning body 3120, which is arranged opposite to the mounting bracket 310, and a positioning cavity is arranged between the positioning body 3120 and the mounting bracket 310, and the first protruding body 331 is penetrated in the positioning cavity; a second connecting hole, which is arranged on the mounting bracket 310 and opposite to the first connecting hole 3320, and the locking member is sequentially penetrated in the first connecting hole 3320 and the second connecting hole, so that the second cleaning component 330 is connected to the mounting bracket 310. The first protruding body 331 is penetrated in the positioning cavity, and the locking member is combined with the first connecting hole 3320 and the second connecting hole to achieve an accurate and stable connection between the second cleaning component 330 and the mounting bracket 310. This connection method can ensure that the cleaning component is accurately positioned during operation, and avoid the reduction of cleaning effect or damage to the equipment due to the shaking of the component during the cleaning process. This design greatly simplifies the assembly steps, reduces assembly time, reduces production costs, and improves production efficiency through a clear positioning structure (positioning cavity and first protruding body 331) and a quick connection mechanism (the locking member is connected through the first connection hole 3320 and the second connection hole). The connection method of the locking member not only ensures the reliability of the connection, but also facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the second cleaning member 330. This means that when maintaining or replacing parts such as the ultraviolet germicidal lamp, no complicated tools or excessive operating steps are required, which improves maintenance efficiency and reduces maintenance costs.

[0071] In one embodiment provided in the present application, the first cleaning component 320 is a cleaning brush, and the second cleaning component 330 is a germicidal lamp. There are multiple germicidal lamps, and the multiple germicidal lamps are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the mounting bracket 310. The cleaning brush can effectively remove dust and impurities on the surface of the evaporator assembly and the filter assembly, and the multiple germicidal lamps arranged at intervals can sterilize and disinfect the cleaned area in a targeted manner. This combination of functions with clear division of labor ensures the efficiency and coordination of the cleaning and sterilization processes, and improves the overall cleaning quality and hygiene level. Since the multiple germicidal lamps are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the mounting bracket, the irradiation range of the germicidal lamp is wider, and more areas of the evaporator assembly and the filter assembly can be covered, especially those corners and gaps that are difficult to reach. This layout design of the germicidal lamp ensures that the cleaning assembly can achieve sterilization without dead ends when performing tasks, and improves the reliability of the product. The interval setting of the germicidal lamp not only expands the sterilization range, but also avoids the problem of uneven irradiation that may exist when a single germicidal lamp irradiates over a large range. The use of multiple germicidal lamps makes the irradiation more uniform and the sterilization effect more stable and reliable.

[0072] Since the germicidal lamps are independent and spaced along the mounting bracket, when one of the lamps is damaged, it can be replaced individually without having to replace the entire cleaning assembly, reducing maintenance costs and time consumption. The spacing of multiple germicidal lamps reduces the mutual interference of light between lamps, ensuring that each germicidal lamp can achieve maximum effect in its irradiation area, improving the sterilization efficiency.

[0073] The air conditioner of the present application also includes an air inlet panel 610 and an air inlet grille 620, and the air inlet grille 620 is arranged on the air inlet panel 610. The filter assembly 200 includes a filter 210 and a filter panel 220, and the filter 210 is arranged on the filter panel 220. A rotating mechanism with an ultraviolet sterilization lamp and a wool strip assembly is designed on the evaporator assembly (i.e., the transmission component 360 and the second drive motor 382 cooperate), which can cover the evaporator and the filter in a large range and effectively remove bacteria and dust. The rotating mechanism is further provided with a self-rotating mechanism (i.e., the mounting bracket 310 can rotate around a predetermined axis), which can reverse the direction of the brush and the ultraviolet sterilization lamp, and reversely remove dust and sterilize the evaporator assembly and the filter. The self-rotating mechanism on the rotating mechanism can effectively control the irradiation area of ​​the ultraviolet sterilization lamp, reduce the movement stroke, and save space. It solves the problems of incomplete coverage of the ultraviolet sterilization area, easy dust accumulation on the filter, and complex traditional sterilization movement mechanism.

[0074] Specifically, the use of a rotating motion mechanism can effectively increase the irradiation area of ​​the ultraviolet sterilization lamp, effectively collect dust, and maintain the reliability of product use; adding a self-rotation mechanism to the motion mechanism allows the ultraviolet sterilization lamp to sterilize the filter, and can realize solutions such as filter sterilization and dust removal, reduce multiple sets of motion mechanisms and cleaning mechanisms, and save space; controlling the irradiation angle of the ultraviolet sterilization lamp can effectively sterilize the evaporator assembly.

[0075] The evaporator support assembly is mainly composed of the evaporator support 110, the motor support assembly (the first support seat 340), the ultraviolet sterilization assembly (cleaning assembly 300) and the pressure cover and other parts, which form a whole with each other to strengthen the structure of the evaporator assembly.

[0076] The working method of its movement mechanism is as follows Figures 3 to 10As shown, a motor is fixed on the evaporator bracket, and the motor drives the gear to drive the rack assembly to rotate in the slide groove (the first limit groove 121). The rack and the first support seat 340 are connected by a push rod (connecting rod), and the two sides are fixed with pins respectively, thereby driving the first support seat 340 to rotate. The first support seat 340 is provided with first rollers 344 on both sides, which are fixed on both sides of the first support seat 340 through an eagle's beak structure, serving as a main load-bearing structure and assisting the first support seat 340 assembly to rotate in the track groove (second limiting groove 122); the motor on the first support seat 340 is fixed by screws, and the rotating shaft on the motor is interference fit with the limiting shaft hole of the cleaning assembly 300 (that is, the limiting shaft hole on the mounting bracket 310), and at the same time, a self-rotating shaft is provided at the bottom of the cleaning assembly 300, which cooperates with the rotating shaft hole on the support seat, so that the self-rotation of the cleaning assembly 300 is realized without affecting its overall rotation movement, thereby maximizing the irradiation position of its ultraviolet germicidal lamp; reducing the space occupied by the huge rotation travel distance of the traditional mechanism, so as to make the shape more miniaturized and lightweight; Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a wool strip assembly is provided behind the cleaning assembly 300, and three groups of buckles are provided behind the matching structure of each group of cleaning assemblies 300 to fix the wool strip assembly. At the same time, a wool strip retaining rib is provided on the second support seat 500 to effectively prevent the wool strip assembly from moving or falling off, so as to ensure that the filter assembly can be cleaned and the dust accumulated in the filter mesh can be removed; the area mainly cleaned by the brush is the area where the filter is less than 35mm from the evaporator 130 (the arc of the middle section of the evaporator assembly is shown in the figure). The relative suction force generated by the rotation of the fan blades in this area is relatively large, and generally large particles and other dust are easily generated;

[0077] like Fig. 9 As shown, the ultraviolet germicidal lamp is fixed on the lamp holder (the lamp holder is the mounting bracket 310) by means of pins and screws. At the same time, a rotation track groove is directly provided on the evaporator bracket 110. The leftmost side is the first end moving area, the rightmost side is the second end moving area, and the center position is the middle moving area. Its working state is as shown in FIG. Figure 5As shown, when it is located in the middle moving area, it moves repeatedly left and right with a width of about 80 to 150 mm. The brush cleans the large particles of dust in the area where the filter is less than 35 mm away from the evaporator. At the same time, the ultraviolet sterilization lamp works to irradiate and sterilize the evaporator 130 for about 10 minutes. Then the motor on the evaporator bracket drives the cleaning component 300 to rotate and move to the first end moving area, and the motor 1 on the first support seat 340 assembly works to repeatedly control the cleaning component 300 to rotate within an angle of ±30° to ensure that the ultraviolet sterilization lamp effectively sterilizes and cleans the left evaporator assembly. After running for 10 minutes, the motor on the evaporator bracket 110 drives the cleaning component 300 to rotate and move to the second end moving area, and the first drive motor on the first support seat 340 assembly works to repeatedly control the cleaning component 300 to rotate within an angle of ±30°. Rotate to ensure that the ultraviolet germicidal lamp effectively sterilizes and cleans the right evaporator component; after sterilization is completed, the first drive motor on the first support seat 340 assembly works to control the cleaning component 300 to rotate at an angle of ±180° to make the germicidal lamp irradiate the filter; after the motor rotates 0 to 60° in the second end moving area for about 1 minute, the first drive motor rotates to restore the ultraviolet germicidal lamp to a state parallel to the filter; the motor on the evaporator bracket drives the cleaning component 300 to move in the direction of the first end moving area. At this stage, the first drive motor does not work, and the motor of the evaporator bracket runs slowly. After about 5 minutes, it reaches UVC position 2, and then rotates 0 to 60° for about 1 minute. After completing the final filter cleaning, the first drive motor on the first support seat 340 assembly works to control the cleaning component 300 to restore to the initial state at an angle of ±180°; the cleaning of the evaporator and the filter is completed; Figure 7 As shown, if you need to replace the wool strip components, UVC lamps (ultraviolet lamps), filters and other materials, you only need to remove the air inlet grille 620 and the filter panel 220 components from the air inlet side and then dismantle and replace them, providing convenience for after-sales maintenance.

[0078] like Fig.16As shown, the present application also provides a control method for an air conditioner, which is applicable to the air conditioner of the above embodiment, wherein a first end moving area, a middle moving area and a second end moving area are sequentially arranged in the air conditioner, and the control method comprises: turning on the cleaning mode of the air conditioner, controlling the cleaning component 300 of the air conditioner to move to the middle moving area, and controlling the cleaning component 300 to reciprocate along the extension direction of the middle moving area for a first predetermined time; thereafter, controlling the cleaning component 300 to move to the first end moving area, so that the cleaning component 300 rotates around a predetermined axis in the first end moving area; thereafter, controlling the cleaning component 300 to move to the second end moving area, so that the cleaning component 300 rotates around a predetermined axis in the second end moving area. By controlling the cleaning component 300 to first move to the middle moving area and reciprocate along its extension direction, the central area of ​​the evaporator and the filter can be ensured to be thoroughly cleaned. Subsequently, the cleaning component moves to the first end moving area and the second end moving area respectively, and rotates around a predetermined axis. This end-to-end cleaning strategy ensures that the cleaning component can reach all areas of the evaporator and the filter, including those edges and corners that are difficult to reach, thereby achieving full coverage and avoiding cleaning dead corners. The first predetermined time set in the control method, as well as the movement and rotation of the cleaning components in various areas, are optimized to effectively improve the efficiency of cleaning and sterilization. Compared with traditional cleaning methods, the control strategy of the present application can complete more thorough cleaning in a shorter time, reducing the time the user has to wait for the cleaning to be completed.

[0079] Before the cleaning mode is turned on, the cleaning assembly 300 is controlled to move to the first end moving area or the second end moving area, so as to reduce the resistance of the cleaning assembly 300 to the airflow inside the air conditioner.

[0080] Further, the control method for rotating the cleaning assembly 300 around a predetermined axis in the first end movement area includes: controlling the cleaning assembly 300 to reciprocate for a second predetermined time within a first predetermined angle range; and then controlling the cleaning assembly 300 to move to the second end movement area. By reciprocating in the first end movement area, it is possible to ensure that specific areas of the evaporator and the filter are fully cleaned and sterilized, especially those dead corners that are prone to accumulate dust and bacteria. This method avoids areas that may be missed by rotating in a single direction and improves the thoroughness of cleaning. Reciprocating for a second predetermined time within a specific angle range can optimize the movement trajectory of the cleaning assembly 300, reduce invalid strokes, and make the cleaning process more efficient. At the same time, by accurately controlling the rotation time and angle range, excessive operation of the cleaning assembly can be avoided, energy can be saved, and the life of the equipment can be extended. The rotation method around the predetermined axis, combined with the conversion of the first end and the second end movement areas, enables the cleaning assembly 300 to cover as large a cleaning area as possible in a limited space, while flexibly adapting to evaporators and filters of different shapes, thereby improving the applicability and flexibility of the cleaning assembly. The reciprocating control mode reduces the contact area and friction of the cleaning assembly 300 during movement, reduces the wear rate of components, and reduces the maintenance frequency and cost. At the same time, by controlling the movement of the cleaning assembly in the second end movement area, unnecessary collisions are avoided, further protecting the cleaning assembly and the internal structure of the air conditioner.

[0081] The control method for rotating the cleaning component 300 around a predetermined axis in the second end moving area includes: controlling the cleaning component 300 to reciprocate within the second predetermined angle range for a third predetermined time; thereafter, controlling the cleaning component 300 to rotate 180° around the predetermined axis and maintain the current state for a fourth predetermined time. Controlling the cleaning component 300 to reciprocate within the second predetermined angle range can ensure that the ultraviolet lamp and the wool strip component fully cover every corner of the evaporator and the filter, especially those areas that are difficult to reach. This multi-angle, full-range cleaning and sterilization method significantly improves the cleaning effect, reduces cleaning dead corners, and ensures the sanitation of the internal environment of the air conditioner. By setting the third predetermined time and the fourth predetermined time, the working cycle and residence time of the cleaning component 300 can be accurately controlled, avoiding excessive cleaning or insufficient cleaning, making the cleaning process more scientific and reasonable, ensuring the cleaning effect, and avoiding excessive interference with the normal operation of the air conditioner.

[0082] After controlling the cleaning component 300 to rotate 180° around a predetermined axis and maintain the current state for a fourth predetermined time, the control method further includes: controlling the cleaning component 300 to move to the first end moving area in the current state. By rotating 180°, the cleaning component can cover areas that were originally difficult to reach, especially the back area of ​​the filter assembly and the evaporator assembly, thereby ensuring the comprehensiveness of cleaning and sterilization, avoiding cleaning dead corners, and improving the cleaning effect. The design of maintaining the fourth predetermined time allows the germicidal lamp to have enough time to thoroughly sterilize the surface rotated to the new position. Subsequently, it moves to the first end moving area, ensuring the effective irradiation time of the germicidal lamp at different positions, optimizing the cleaning and sterilization path, and improving the operating efficiency. Staying in the new position for a period of time ensures that the germicidal light is fully irradiated on the surface, thereby improving the sterilization effect. Especially for areas with a large number of microorganisms or difficult to clean, this strategy can significantly improve the thoroughness and effectiveness of sterilization.

[0083] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:

[0084] The air conditioner provided according to the present application includes an evaporator assembly 100, a filter assembly 200 and a cleaning assembly 300. The evaporator assembly 100 is arranged opposite to the filter assembly 200, and the cleaning assembly 300 is arranged between the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200. The cleaning assembly 300 includes a mounting bracket 310, a first cleaning component 320 and a second cleaning component 330. The first cleaning component 320 and the second cleaning component 330 are respectively arranged on the mounting bracket 310, the first cleaning component 320 is used for cleaning, and the second cleaning component 330 is used for emitting sterilizing light; wherein the mounting bracket 310 is movably arranged at a position between the evaporator assembly 100 and the filter assembly 200, and at the same time, the mounting bracket 310 is rotatably arranged around a predetermined axis, so that the first cleaning component 320 cleans the evaporator assembly 100 or the filter assembly 200, and the second cleaning component 330 irradiates the evaporator assembly 100 or the filter assembly 200 with sterilizing light. The first cleaning component 320 and the second cleaning component 330 are driven to move by the mounting bracket 310, so that the first cleaning component 320 repeatedly cleans the filter assembly 200 or the evaporator assembly 100. At the same time, the second cleaning component 330 is used to irradiate the filter assembly 200 or the evaporator assembly 100 with sterilizing light, so that the air conditioner can automatically clean and sterilize during operation. The irradiation angle and range of the second cleaning component 330 can be optimized by rotating the mounting bracket 310 to ensure that the sterilizing light covers all areas that need to be sterilized, effectively cleaning the dust and bacteria between the evaporator and the filter, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency, improving the hygiene standards of the air conditioner use environment, and reducing potential threats to user health.
