Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of air conditioning technology, for example to a wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit and an air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, with the development of society and the economy and the improvement of people's living standards, air conditioners have become an indispensable household appliance in people's daily lives. Wall-mounted air conditioners generally consist of an indoor unit, an outdoor unit, and connecting pipes. Because these air conditioners take up little space, they are favored by a wide range of consumers.

[0003] In the process of implementing the embodiments of this disclosure, at least the following problems were found in the related art:

[0004] Existing wall-mounted air conditioner indoor units generally have air deflector assemblies located at the indoor air outlet to adjust the direction of airflow. However, the existing air deflector assemblies are not very effective at adjusting the airflow direction, and can only adjust all the airflow in one direction, resulting in a strong airflow that seriously affects user comfort.

[0005] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the background section above is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of this application, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art known to those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To provide a basic understanding of some aspects of the disclosed embodiments, a brief summary is given below. This summary is not intended as a general commentary, nor is it intended to identify key / important components or describe the scope of protection of these embodiments, but rather as a prelude to the detailed description that follows.

[0007] This disclosure provides a wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit and an air conditioner to solve the problem of poor airflow comfort of the air guide plate in existing wall-mounted air conditioner indoor units.

[0008] An embodiment of the first aspect of this application provides a wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit, which includes: a housing and an air outlet;

[0009] An air outlet adjustment component is located at the bottom of the housing and is positioned corresponding to the air outlet. The air outlet adjustment component is connected to the housing.

[0010] The air outlet regulating component includes a connector and an air guide column. One end of the connector is connected to the housing, and the air guide column extends laterally and is connected to the other end of the connector. The air guide column is used to guide the airflow direction of the air outlet. An air guide channel is provided inside the air guide column so that the air at the rear or lower part of the air outlet regulating component flows along the air guide channel to the air outlet and mixes with the air flowing out of the air outlet.

[0011] In some optional embodiments, the air guide channel includes a first air duct, a second air duct, and an air cavity. Both the first and second air ducts are connected to the air cavity. The first air duct is arc-shaped, and the air outlet direction of the first air duct is the same as the air outlet direction, so that outside air can flow into the air cavity from the second air duct and flow out along the first air duct.

[0012] In some alternative embodiments, the air guide column includes a first end face and a second end face, the first end face facing the end face where the air outlet is located, and the second end face facing away from the end face where the air outlet is located. The air outlet of the first air duct is located on the first end face, and the air inlet of the second air duct is located on the second end face.

[0013] In some alternative embodiments, the air outlet of the first air duct is located at the center of the first end face, and / or,

[0015] In some alternative embodiments, the air guide column is rotatably connected to the connector, and the air guide column can rotate relative to the connector to adjust the angle between the air guide column and the end face where the air outlet is located.

[0016] In some alternative embodiments, the connector includes a telescopic member, with a first end connected to the housing and a second end connected to the air guide column, so that the air guide column can be raised and lowered relative to the housing to change the distance between the air guide column and the air outlet.

[0017] The air outlet regulating component has a retracted position. When the air outlet regulating component is in the retracted position, the air guide column abuts against the lower end face of the housing, blocking the air outlet.

[0018] In some alternative embodiments, the connector further includes:

[0019] The second drive motor is connected to the telescopic component and is used to drive the telescopic component to extend and retract.

[0020] In some alternative embodiments, the air outlet regulating component further includes:

[0021] A fan, located inside the air guide channel, is used to drive outside air into and out of the air guide channel.

[0022] In some alternative embodiments, the air outlet regulating component further includes:

[0023] A filter, located inside or at the port of an air duct, is used to filter the air flowing through the air duct.

[0024] An embodiment of the second aspect of this application provides an air conditioner, which includes an outdoor unit and a wall-mounted indoor unit as described in any of the optional embodiments above, wherein the wall-mounted indoor unit is connected to the outdoor unit.

[0025] The wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit and air conditioner provided in this disclosure can achieve the following technical effects:

[0026] In this embodiment, by providing a connector that connects to both the air guide column and the housing, the air guide column can be connected to the housing via the connector, placing it outside the housing and ensuring a reliable connection between the air guide column and the housing. By providing an air guide column and positioning it below the housing and corresponding to the air outlet, the air blown from the air outlet can flow through the air guide column, and the airflow direction can be changed under the guidance of the air guide column, making the airflow direction more in line with the user's needs. By extending the air guide column laterally, the entire air outlet adjustment assembly has a compact structure, occupies less space, and guides the airflow of the entire air outlet, ensuring the air guiding effect. By providing an air guide channel within the air guide column, air from the rear or lower part of the air guide column can flow into the air guide channel and mix with the airflow flowing from the air outlet, lowering or raising the outlet air temperature. The mixed airflow reduces the discomfort of directly blowing on the human body. Secondly, airflow mixing can regulate wind speed. Through airflow mixing, the flow velocity of the air blown from the air outlet can be reduced, airflow noise can be reduced, and the comfort of using the air conditioner can be improved.

[0048] In this embodiment, the left-right and up-down directions are as follows: Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the front-back direction in this embodiment is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, Figures 2 to 5 The arrows in the diagram indicate the direction of airflow. Figures 6 to 8 The arrows in the diagram indicate the direction of airflow.

[0049] Combination Figures 1 to 8As shown, this embodiment of the present disclosure provides a wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit, which includes: a housing 10 and an air outlet adjustment assembly 20. The housing 10 is provided with an air outlet 101; the air outlet adjustment assembly 20 is located below the housing 10 and is provided corresponding to the air outlet 101, and is connected to the housing 10; wherein, the air outlet adjustment assembly 20 includes a connector 21 and an air guide column 22. One end of the connector 21 is connected to the housing 10, and the air guide column 22 extends laterally and is connected to the other end of the connector 21. The air guide column 22 is used to guide the airflow direction of the air outlet 101, and an air guide channel 220 is provided in the air guide column 22 so that the air at the rear or lower part of the air outlet adjustment assembly 20 flows along the air guide channel 220 to the air outlet 101.

[0050] In this embodiment, by providing a connector 21 that connects to both the air guide column 22 and the housing 10, the air guide column 22 can be connected to the housing 10 via the connector 21. Positioning the air guide column 22 outside the housing 10 ensures a reliable connection between the air guide column 22 and the housing 10. By providing the air guide column 22 and positioning it below the housing 10 and corresponding to the air outlet 101, the airflow from the air outlet 101 can flow through the air guide column 22, and its direction can be changed under its guidance, making the airflow direction more suitable for the user's needs. By extending the air guide column 22 laterally, the entire air outlet adjustment assembly 20 has a compact structure, occupies less space, and guides the airflow from the entire air outlet 101, ensuring effective airflow guidance.

[0051] By setting an air guide channel 220 inside the air guide column 22, air from the rear or lower part of the air guide column 22 can flow into the air guide channel 220 and mix with the airflow from the air outlet 101, thereby lowering or raising the outlet air temperature. The mixed airflow reduces the discomfort of air blowing directly onto the human body. Secondly, airflow mixing can regulate wind speed. By mixing airflow, the flow rate of the airflow from the air outlet 101 can be reduced, airflow noise can be reduced, and the comfort of using air conditioning can be improved.

[0052] Optionally, the exhaust port of the air guide channel 220 is located on the end face of the air guide column 22 facing the air outlet 101, and the air intake port of the air guide channel 220 is located on the end face of the air guide column 22 away from the air outlet 101. The air flow direction of the air guide channel 220 and the air flow direction of the air outlet 101 form a first angle, the first angle being greater than 0 degrees and less than 45 degrees.

[0053] In this way, the air flowing out of the air outlet 101 will drive the airflow at the outlet of the air guide channel 220, creating a low-pressure area on the side of the air guide column 22 facing the air outlet 101. According to Bernoulli's principle, air can flow into the air guide channel 220 from the air inlet and out of the air guide channel 220 from the air outlet. This effectively prevents air flowing out of the air outlet 101 from directly flowing into the air guide channel 220, thus ensuring the air guiding effect of the air guide channel 220. Secondly, there is no need to install a power source in the air guide channel 220, reducing energy consumption and noise from the power source.

[0054] Optionally, the first angle between the airflow direction from the air guide channel 220 and the airflow direction from the air outlet 101 is between 15 degrees and 30 degrees.

[0055] This reduces the impact between the airflow from the outlet 101 and the air guide column 22, thus lowering the noise of the mixed airflow, while preventing the airflow from directly entering the air guide channel 220. Furthermore, the airflow in the air guide channel 220 mixes better with the airflow from the outlet 101, improving the outlet temperature and comfort.

[0056] Optionally, the air outlet 101 is located on the lower end face of the housing 10, and the housing 10 is provided with an air outlet duct 102. The air outlet duct 102 is set at a second angle with the vertical direction. The angle of the second angle is greater than 0 degrees and less than or equal to 60 degrees, so that the air flowing out of the air outlet 101 can flow downward and forward.

[0057] In this way, by placing the air outlet 101 on the lower end face of the housing 10, air can be blown out from below the wall-mounted air conditioner. By setting the second included angle to be greater than 0 degrees and less than 60 degrees, both the downward and forward airflow effect is ensured, while avoiding the increase in airflow resistance and noise problems caused by an excessively large second included angle.

[0058] Optionally, the second included angle of the vertically inclined air outlet duct 102 ranges from 20 degrees to 40 degrees.

[0059] In this way, the air blown out of the air outlet 101 can flow downward and forward while ensuring low noise and a long air outlet distance.

[0060] Optionally, the air guide channel 220 includes a first air duct 2201, a second air duct 2202, and an air cavity 2203. Both the first air duct 2201 and the second air duct 2202 are connected to the air cavity 2203. The air outlet of the first air duct 2201 is located on the wall of the air guide column 22 facing the air outlet 101, and the air inlet of the second air duct 2202 is located on the wall of the air guide column 22 away from the air outlet 101. The first air duct 2201 is arc-shaped, and the air outlet direction of the first air duct 2201 is the same as the air outlet direction of the air outlet 101, so that outside air can flow into the air cavity 2203 from the second air duct 2202 and flow out along the first air duct 2201.

[0061] By adopting the embodiments of this disclosure, by setting a first air duct 2201, a second air duct 2202 and an air cavity 2203, and by connecting the first air duct 2201 and the second air duct 2202 to the air cavity 2203, outside air can flow into the air cavity 2203 from the first air duct 2201 and out of the air cavity 2203 from the second air duct 2202, or outside air can flow into the air cavity 2203 from the second air duct 2202 and out of the air cavity 2203 from the first air duct 2201. By positioning the air outlet of the first air duct 2201 on the wall facing the air outlet 101 via the guide column 22, and the air inlet of the second air duct 2202 on the wall away from the air outlet 101 via the guide column 22, and by making the first air duct 2201 arc-shaped and its air outlet direction the same as that of the air outlet 101, the airflow from the air outlet 101 can draw outside air into the air chamber 2203 via the second air duct 2202 and out of the air chamber 2203 via the first air duct 2201. By making the first air duct 2201 arc-shaped, it can guide the airflow out of the air chamber 2203, reducing airflow resistance and facilitating airflow out of the air chamber 2203. It should be noted that the air outlet direction of the first air duct 2201 is the same as the air outlet direction of the air outlet 101, but it does not mean that the two directions are exactly the same. There can be a certain angle between them, as long as the angle is less than 60 degrees.

[0062] Optionally, the air guide column 22 includes a first end face 221 and a second end face 222. The first end face 221 faces the end face where the air outlet 101 is located, and the second end face 222 faces away from the end face where the air outlet 101 is located. The air outlet of the first air duct 2201 is located on the first end face 221, and the air inlet of the second air duct 2202 is located on the second end face 222.

[0063] Using the embodiments of this disclosure, air from the side of the air guide column 22 away from the air outlet 101 can flow into the air guide channel 220 through the second air duct 2202 and flow out of the air guide channel 220 from the first air duct 2201.

[0064] Optionally, the air guide column 22 includes a first end face 221, a second end face 222 and a third end face 223. The first end face 221 faces the end face where the air outlet 101 is located, and the second end face 222 and the third end face 223 are both away from the end face where the air outlet 101 is located. The air outlet of the first air duct 2201 is located on the first end face 221, and the air inlet of the second air duct 2202 is located on the second end face 222.

[0065] Using the embodiments of this disclosure, in combination Figure 2 As shown, the air guide column 22 has a triangular prism structure. By setting the air outlet of the first air duct 2201 on the first end face 221 and the air inlet of the second air duct 2202 on the second end face 222, when the airflow from the air outlet 101 flows out, the outside air flows into the second air duct 2202 from the air inlet of the second air duct 2202 and flows into the air cavity 2203 along the second air duct 2202. It then flows out of the air cavity 2203 from the air outlet of the first air duct 2201 and mixes with the airflow from the air outlet 101, which can drive the air behind the air guide column 22 to flow into the air cavity 2203.

[0066] Optionally, the air outlet of the first air duct 2201 extends laterally along the air guide column 22, and the opening area of ​​the air outlet of the first air duct 2201 is less than half of the end face area of ​​the first end face 221.

[0067] In this way, the air flowing out of the air guide channel 220 can be fully mixed with the air flowing out of the air outlet 101, ensuring the air mixing effect and the air guiding effect of the air guide column 22.

[0068] Optionally, the opening area of ​​the air outlet is less than one-quarter of the end face area and greater than one-tenth of the end face area.

[0069] This effectively enhances the air guiding effect of the air guide column 22, preventing the airflow from the outlet 101 from directly flowing into the air supply outlet of the first air duct 2201.

[0070] Optionally, the air outlet of the first air duct 2201 is located in the middle of the first end face 221.

[0071] In this way, when the supply airflow from the air outlet 101 flows to the first end face 221, the supply airflow will flow along the first end face 221 under the action of the upper part of the first end face 221. The upper part of the first end face 221 will play a guiding role, guiding the airflow to flow in the direction of airflow, and avoiding the situation where the supply airflow directly flows into the air outlet of the first air duct 2201.

[0072] Optionally, the air inlet of the second air duct 2202 is located at the bottom of the second end face 222.

[0073] This reduces the amount of air collected at the top of the guide column 22 in the second air duct 2202, and prevents the airflow from the top of the guide column 22 from flowing back to the rear from the air outlet 101.

[0074] Optionally, the air inlet of the second air duct 2202 is provided to extend laterally along the air guide column 22, and the extension length is adapted to the lateral dimension of the air guide column 22.

[0075] In this way, the air in the entire horizontal direction behind the air guide column 22 can flow from the air inlet into the air guide channel 220, ensuring the air intake volume of the air guide channel 220.

[0076] Optionally, the air guide column 22 includes a first end face 221, a second end face 222 and a third end face 223. The first end face 221 faces the end face where the air outlet 101 is located. The air outlet of the first air duct 2201 is located on the first end face 221, and the air inlet of the second air duct 2202 is located on the third end face 223.

[0077] In this way, by setting the air outlet of the first air duct 2201 on the first end face 221 and the air inlet of the second air duct 2202 on the third end face 223, when the airflow from the air outlet 101 flows out, the outside air flows into the second air duct 2202 from the air inlet of the second air duct 2202, and flows into the air cavity 2203 along the second air duct 2202, flows out of the air cavity 2203 from the air outlet of the first air duct 2201, and then mixes with the airflow from the air outlet 101, which can drive the air below the guide column 22 to flow into the air cavity 2203.

[0078] Optionally, the air guide column 22 is a triangular prism structure, and the cross-sectional shape of the air guide column 22 is an isosceles triangle.

[0079] It should be noted that the structure of the air guide column 22 can be a square prism, a pentagonal prism, or a semi-cylindrical structure. It can be understood that the structural form of the air guide column 22 is not unique.

[0080] For ease of explanation, the following embodiments are all described with three end faces of the air guide column 22, that is, the air guide column 22 is a triangular prism structure.

[0081] Optionally, the lower end face of the housing 10 includes a first wall 103, which is located at the front of the lower end face. The first wall 103 is arranged to gradually slope downward from back to front, and the air outlet 101 is located on the first wall 103.

[0082] In this way, by placing the air outlet 101 on the first wall surface 103, a downward and forward airflow direction can be formed. When one of the end faces 221, 222, or 223 is parallel to the first wall surface 103, the airflow can be effectively guided forward, preventing it from flowing backward and reducing airflow turbulence and backflow. Secondly, the airflow can reach the end face corresponding to the guide column 22 after flowing the same distance, and change its flow direction under the guidance of the end face. This reduces the collision between the rear airflow and the front airflow when flowing forward at the end face, avoiding interference between airflows and making the airflow smoother.

[0083] Optionally, when air flows into the air cavity 2203 from the second air duct 2202 and flows out from the first air duct 2201, the flow area of ​​the air outlet of the first air duct 2201 is smaller than the flow area of ​​the air inlet of the second air duct 2202.

[0084] By adopting the embodiments of this disclosure, the flow area of ​​the air outlet of the first air duct 2201 is set to be smaller than the flow area of ​​the air inlet of the second air duct 2202. This prevents air flowing out of the air outlet 101 from flowing into the first air duct 2201, and increases the air inlet area, ensuring that the air volume of the air cavity 2203 meets the requirements for rapid cooling or heating. Furthermore, according to Bernoulli's principle, when air passes through a smaller flow area, its speed increases, and the air pressure also increases accordingly. In other words, the air velocity and air pressure at the air outlet of the first air duct 2201 can be increased, resulting in smoother airflow and helping to reduce noise in that area.

[0085] Optionally, the connector 21 includes a telescopic member 211, the first end of which is connected to the housing 10, and the second end of which is connected to the air guide column 22, so that the air guide column 22 can be raised and lowered relative to the housing 10 to change the distance between the air guide column 22 and the air outlet 101; wherein, the air outlet adjustment component 20 has a retracted position, when the air outlet adjustment component 20 is in the retracted position, the air guide column 22 abuts against the lower end face of the housing 10, blocking the air outlet 101.

[0086] In this embodiment, by setting the connector 21 as a telescopic member 211, the telescopic member 211 can drive the air guide column 22 to move vertically relative to the housing 10, thereby adjusting the distance between the air guide column 22 and the housing 10, and consequently the distance between the air guide column 22 and the air outlet 101, thus adjusting the air guiding effect of the air guide column 22, and consequently adjusting the air delivery distance and wind noise. Specifically, by increasing the distance between the air guide column 22 and the air outlet 101, turbulence and impact of the airflow at the air outlet 101 can be reduced, thereby improving the air quality and making the airflow more comfortable while reducing the noise. When the air outlet adjustment component 20 is in the retracted position, the end face of the air guide column 22 abuts against the lower end face of the housing 10 to block the air outlet 101 of the housing 10. This prevents external dust and debris from flowing into the housing 10 from the air outlet 101, helping to keep the inside of the housing 10 clean and avoiding the decline in air conditioning performance due to the accumulation of dust and debris. Secondly, blocking the air outlet 101 in this way can make the overall appearance of the air conditioner more aesthetically pleasing.

[0087] Optionally, the telescopic component 211 includes a first telescopic rod and a second telescopic rod. One end of the first telescopic rod is connected to the housing 10, and the other end of the first telescopic rod is slidably connected to one end of the second telescopic rod. The other end of the second telescopic rod is connected to the air guide column 22, so that the air guide column 22 can be raised or lowered by sliding the second telescopic rod.

[0088] This allows for the extension and retraction adjustment of the air guide column 22.

[0089] Optionally, the telescopic component 211 includes a first telescopic column and a second telescopic column, with the first telescopic column nested inside the second telescopic column. One end of the first telescopic column is connected to the housing 10, and the other end of the first telescopic column is telescopically connected to one end of the second telescopic column. The other end of the second telescopic column is connected to the air guide column 22, so that the air guide column 22 can be raised or lowered by telescopically extending the second telescopic column.

[0090] This allows for the extension and retraction adjustment of the air guide column 22.

[0091] It should be noted that the specific structural form of the telescopic component 211 is not unique. Any structural form that can realize the telescopic extension of the air guide column 22 relative to the shell 10 is an optional method in this embodiment.

[0092] Optionally, there are two telescopic components 211, which are respectively located on both sides of the housing 10 and connect the housing 10 to the end of the air guide column 22 on the corresponding side.

[0093] In this way, by setting two telescopic components 211, on the one hand, the connection between the housing 10 and the air guide column 22 can be stabilized, and on the other hand, the two telescopic components 211 can be controlled to extend and retract synchronously, so as to achieve stable extension and retraction of the air guide column 22 and avoid the air guide column 22 from shaking during the extension and retraction process.

[0094] Optionally, the connector 21 further includes a second drive motor, which is drivenly connected to the telescopic member 211 and is used to drive the telescopic member 211 to extend or retract.

[0095] By using the embodiments of this disclosure, a second drive motor is provided and driven to the telescopic member 211, so that the telescopic member 211 can automatically extend and retract according to a preset program or user instructions, thereby automatically adjusting the air outlet distance to meet the usage needs in different scenarios.

[0096] Optionally, the air guide column 22 is rotatably connected to the connector 21, and the air guide column 22 can rotate relative to the connector 21 to adjust the angle between the air guide column 22 and the end face where the air outlet 101 is located.

[0097] In this embodiment, by rotatably connecting the air guide column 22 to the connector 21, the air guide column 22 can rotate relative to the connector 21. The air guide column 22 can rotate arbitrarily relative to the connector 21, changing the end face of the air guide column 22 facing the air outlet 101 to adjust its air guiding effect. Alternatively, while keeping the end face of the air guide column 22 facing the air outlet 101 unchanged, the angle between the end face of the air guide column 22 facing the air outlet 101 and the end face where the air outlet 101 is located can be finely adjusted to adjust the air guiding distance and air guiding direction of the air guide column 22.

[0098] Optionally, the connector 21 includes a connecting part and a first drive motor. The first drive motor is located in the connecting part and is drivenly connected to the air guide column 22. The first drive motor is used to drive the air guide column 22 to rotate relative to the connecting part.

[0099] In this way, the first drive motor drives the air guide column 22 to rotate automatically, thereby automatically adjusting the airflow direction without the need for manual operation by the user. Secondly, it can automatically rotate the air guide column 22 to the designated position, ensuring the precise rotation angle of the air guide column 22 and guaranteeing its air guiding effect.

[0100] Optionally, the first drive motor is located inside the connecting part.

[0101] By placing the first drive motor inside the connecting part, the motor can be protected from external dust and moisture, thus extending its service life. Furthermore, it reduces noise during motor operation and prevents the first drive motor from obstructing airflow.

[0102] Optionally, combined Figure 1 and Figures 6 to 8 As shown, when the air guide column 22 is a triangular prism structure, when the air guide column 22 rotates 120 degrees relative to the connector 21, the end face of the air guide column 22 facing the air outlet 101 can be changed.

[0103] Optionally, combined Figure 4 As shown, when the angle between the first end face 221 of the air guide column 22 and the first wall surface 103 is 45 degrees, the air guide column 22 divides the airflow from the air outlet 101 into two parts, which can achieve downward and forward airflow.

[0104] Thus, when the rotation angle of the air guide column 22 relative to the connecting piece 21 is within the range of 0 to 45 degrees, the air guiding direction of the air guide column 22 can be adjusted. The larger the rotation angle of the air guide column 22, the greater the downward airflow.

[0105] Optionally, the air guide column 22 has a first rotation position, in which the angle between the first end face 221 of the air guide column 22 and the end face of the air outlet 101 is 45 degrees; the air guide column 22 has a second rotation position, in which the angle between the second end face 222 of the air guide column 22 and the end face of the air outlet 101 is 45 degrees; and the air guide column 22 has a third rotation position, in which the angle between the third end face 223 of the air guide column 22 and the end face of the air outlet 101 is 45 degrees.

[0106] Thus, when the air guide column 22 is in the first rotation position, the second rotation position, or the third rotation position, the connecting edge of the two adjacent end faces of the air guide column 22 faces the end face of the air outlet 101, which can cause part of the air flowing out of the air outlet 101 to flow forward under the guidance of the air guide column 22, and part of the air to flow backward and downward.

[0107] Specifically, in combination Figure 4 As shown, when the connecting edge between the first end face 221 and the third end face 223 of the air guide column 22 faces the air outlet 101, the air flowing out of the air outlet 101 is divided into two parts. One part of the air flows forward under the guidance of the third end face 223, and the other part of the air flows backward and downward under the guidance of the first end face 221.

[0108] This division of airflow into forward and backward / downward sections reduces the amount of air blowing directly onto the body, improving comfort and making it suitable for people sensitive to direct drafts. Secondly, the backward / downward airflow helps promote overall indoor air circulation, preventing stagnant air zones and improving ventilation.

[0109] Optionally, the air guide column 22 has a first working position, a second working position, and a third working position. When the air guide column 22 rotates to the first working position, the first end face 221 faces the air outlet 101 and is parallel to the end face of the air outlet 101, so that the air flowing out of the air outlet 101 flows under the guidance of the first end face 221. When the air guide column 22 rotates to the second working position, the second end face 222 faces the air outlet 101 and is parallel to the end face of the air outlet 101. When the air guide column 22 rotates to the third working position, the third end face 223 faces the air outlet 101 and is parallel to the end face of the air outlet 101.

[0110] In this way, when the air guide column 22 is in different working positions, different end faces can be used to guide the airflow and achieve different air guiding effects.

[0111] Optionally, when the air guide column 22 rotates, the distance between the rotation axis of the air guide column 22 and the edge of the air guide column 22 is less than or equal to the distance between the rotation axis of the air guide column 22 and the end face where the air outlet 101 is located.

[0112] This avoids the air guide column 22 colliding with the housing 10 when it rotates. In other words, when the distance between the rotation axis of the air guide column 22 and its edge is greater than the distance between the rotation axis of the air guide column 22 and the end face of the air outlet 101, the air guide column 22 will first descend until the distance between its rotation axis and its edge is equal to the distance between the rotation axis of the air guide column 22 and the end face of the air outlet 101 before rotating.

[0113] Optionally, the second air duct 2202 is arc-shaped, and the arc-shaped opening direction of the first air duct 2201 is opposite to the arc-shaped opening direction of the second air duct 2202.

[0114] Using the embodiments disclosed herein, the air cavity 2203 and the second air duct 2202 can form a volute structure. The direction of airflow can be controlled by controlling the forward or reverse rotation of the fan 23. When the fan 23 rotates forward, outside air can flow into the air cavity 2203 from the second air duct 2202 and out of the air cavity 2203 from the first air duct 2201. When the fan 23 rotates in reverse, outside air can flow out of the air cavity 2203 from the first air duct 2201 and out of the air cavity 2203 from the second air duct 2202.

[0115] Optionally, the air outlet regulating component 20 includes a fan 23, which is disposed in the air guide channel 220. The fan 23 is used to drive external air from the air guide column 22 into the air guide channel 220 and out along the air guide channel 220.

[0116] In this way, by setting up the fan 23, the fan 23 can adjust its speed to achieve precise control of the air volume, which helps to control the air volume of the air guide channel 220, and thus can adjust the direction of the mixed airflow. In addition, it can reduce the noise of the air flowing out of the air outlet 101 impacting the air guide column 22.

[0117] Optionally, the fan 23 is a cross-flow fan 23, which is located inside the air guide channel 220.

[0118] In this way, by placing the cross-flow fan 23 inside the air guide channel 220, the cross-flow fan 23 adopts a compact structural design, occupies relatively little space, and saves installation space. The cross-flow fan 23 is also quieter than the centrifugal fan 23 or the axial fan 23, which can reduce wind noise.

[0119] Optionally, the longitudinal section of the air cavity 2203 is circular, and the cross-flow fan 23 includes an impeller, which is rotatably disposed inside the air cavity 2203.

[0120] In this way, the first air duct 2201 and the air cavity 2203 can form a volute-like structure, eliminating the need for an additional volute structure, which can reduce costs and reduce the installation space required for the air outlet regulating component 20.

[0121] Optionally, the fan 23 includes an axial flow fan 23, which is located outside the air guide column 22 and at the air intake of the second air duct 2202.

[0122] In this way, the axial flow fan 23 can drive the air outside the guide column 22 to flow into the air cavity 2203 along the second air duct 2202 and out from the first air duct 2201. By placing it outside the guide column 22, the space occupied inside the guide column 22 can be avoided, the volume of the guide column 22 can be effectively reduced, and the fan 23 can be easily maintained and replaced.

[0123] Optionally, the fan 23 includes a cross-flow impeller, which is rotatably disposed within the air cavity 2203.

[0124] In this way, the airflow channel of the air guide column 22 can act as a volute, eliminating the need for a separate volute structure. Within a limited space, when the cross-flow impeller rotates forward or backward, the first air duct 2201 and the second air duct 2202 can effectively collect, guide, and diffuse the airflow, while also acting as a volute, thus optimizing the use of the internal space.

[0125] Optionally, when the end face of the air outlet of the first air duct 2201 faces the end face of the air outlet 101 and the two are parallel, the airflow direction of the air outlet of the first air duct 2201 and the airflow direction of the air outlet 101 are in the same direction.

[0126] In this way, not only can the airflow blown out of the air outlet 101 be prevented from flowing into the first air duct 2201, thus avoiding airflow backflow and interference, the airflow blown out of the air outlet 101 can also drive the air in the air guide channel 220 to flow out of the first air duct 2201, eliminating the need to set up a fan 23 to drive the air flow in the air guide channel 220, thus reducing energy consumption.

[0127] Optionally, the air outlet regulating assembly 20 further includes a filter 24, which is disposed within or at the port of the air duct 220 and is used to filter the air flowing through the air duct 220.

[0128] By employing the embodiments of this disclosure, the filter 24 can effectively capture airborne particles such as dust, pollen, and bacteria, thereby improving indoor air quality. By placing the filter 24 at the port of the air duct 220, it is easy to replace the filter 24, improving assembly convenience.

[0129] Optionally, the filter 24 is removable and located at the first end of the air duct 220 to facilitate removal and replacement of the filter 24.

[0130] In this way, the filter 24 can be pulled out from the first end of the air duct 220 without complicated operations or tools, making it easy to replace or clean the filter 24.

[0131] Optionally, filter 24 can be a HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air Filter) filter 24.

[0132] Optionally, the connector 21 is slidably connected to the housing 10 so that the air outlet regulating assembly 20 can slide relative to the housing 10 in the front-back direction;

[0133] The air outlet regulating component 20 has a blocking position and a clearance position. When the air outlet regulating component 20 is in the blocking position, the air outlet regulating component 20 can cover the air outlet 101. When the air outlet regulating component 20 is in the clearance position, the air outlet regulating component 20 clearances the air outlet 101 so that the air flowing out of the air outlet 101 flows downward.

[0134] By using the embodiments of this disclosure, by sliding the connector 21 to the housing 10, the air outlet adjustment component 20 can slide relative to the housing 10 in the front-back direction to adjust the distance between the air guide column 22 and the air outlet 101 in the front-back direction, thereby adjusting the air delivery direction of the airflow.

[0135] Combination Figure 1As shown, the air outlet adjustment component 20 is in the blocked position at this time. The air guide column 22 of the air outlet adjustment component 20 is located below the air outlet 101 and can block the air outlet 101 from escaping. When the telescopic component 211 is in the retracted state, the end face of the air outlet adjustment component 20 abuts against the end face of the air outlet 101, which can just block the air outlet 101.

[0136] Combination Figure 6 As shown, when the air outlet adjustment component 20 is in the avoidance position, the air guide column 22 of the air outlet adjustment component 20 is located behind the air outlet 101, so that the air blown out of the air outlet 101 can be blown directly downward.

[0137] Optionally, the housing 10 is provided with a slide rail, and the lower end face of the housing 10 is provided with a groove. The slide rail and the groove extend in the front-back direction, and the end of the connector 21 is provided with a slider so that the connector 21 is slidably connected to the housing 10.

[0138] Thus, by providing slides and grooves within the housing 10, the connector 21 can slide relative to the housing 10 along the grooves. By providing slides within the housing 10, the aesthetic appearance of the housing 10 can be improved.

[0139] Optionally, the outer wall of the housing 10 is provided with a groove that extends in the front-rear direction, and the end of the connector 21 is provided with a slider that is adapted to the groove so that the connector 21 is slidably connected to the housing 10.

[0140] This eliminates the need to occupy the internal space of the housing 10, thus improving installation convenience.

[0141] It is understandable that the sliding connection between the housing 10 and the connector 21 is not unique.

[0142] Optionally, the air guide column 22 includes a first end face 221 and a second end face 222. The first end face 221 is provided with air guide texture 2221, and the second end face 222 is provided with air guide pattern 2211. The air guide column 22 can rotate relative to the housing 10 so that the first end face 221 faces the air outlet 101 or the second end face 222 faces the air outlet 101.

[0143] By using the embodiments of this disclosure, the air outlet regulating component 20 is disposed below the housing 10 and corresponding to the air outlet 101, so that the air supply airflow from the air outlet 101 can flow through the air outlet regulating component 20, thereby enabling the air outlet regulating component 20 to regulate the air supply airflow and achieve different air supply effects.

[0144] By rotating the air guide column 22 and the connector 21, the first end face 221 or the second end face 222 of the air guide column 22 can be directed towards the air outlet 101, achieving different air guiding effects, such as direct blowing or dispersed airflow, to meet different user needs. The first end face 221 and the second end face 222 of the air guide column 22 are respectively provided with air guiding textures 2221 and air guiding patterns 2211. The air guiding textures 2221 and air guiding patterns 2211 can help the airflow be better distributed, reduce direct airflow impact, and improve the comfort of the air conditioner.

[0145] Optionally, the first end face 221 of the air guide column 22 is provided with air guide patterns 2211. The air guide patterns 2211 extend in the front-back direction. There are multiple air guide patterns 2211, and the multiple air guide patterns 2211 are evenly spaced.

[0146] In this embodiment of the invention, air guide patterns 2211 are provided on the first end face 221 and extend along the front-to-back direction. When the first end face 221 faces the air outlet 101, the air flowing out of the air outlet 101 flows through the first end face 221 and is guided by the air guide patterns 2211, making the airflow more uniform. The first end face 221 guides the airflow to flow forward evenly, achieving a uniform air delivery effect.

[0147] Optionally, the second end face 222 is provided with air guiding texture 2221, the air guiding texture 2221 extends along the width direction of the second end face 222, there are multiple air guiding textures 2221, the multiple air guiding textures 2221 are spaced apart, and the multiple air guiding textures 2221 are inclined from the middle of the second end face 222 to both sides.

[0148] In this embodiment of the present disclosure, by providing air guide texture 2221 on the second end face 222, when the airflow passes through the second end face 222, the airflow direction can be changed under the action of the air guide texture 2221, so that the airflow is dispersed and flows out towards both sides of the housing 10, thereby increasing the air delivery angle.

[0149] Optionally, there are multiple air guide textures 2221, including a first side texture and a second side texture. The first side texture and the second side texture are separated along the middle of the second end face 222. The first side texture is set along the direction from the middle of the second end face 222 toward the side where the first side texture is located, and the spacing between adjacent air guide textures 2221 is set to gradually increase from back to front. The second side texture is set along the direction from the middle of the second end face 222 toward the side where the second side texture is located, and the spacing between adjacent air guide textures 2221 is set to gradually increase from back to front.

[0150] In this way, the air guide texture 2221 of the second end face 222 can guide the airflow to be evenly distributed to both sides, increase the air supply range, and improve the air outlet effect.

[0151] It should be noted that the setting of the airflow texture 2221 is not unique.

[0152] Optionally, the third end face 223 is provided with air guide corrugations 2231, which extend along the extension direction of the air guide column 22. The air guide corrugations 2231 are arc-shaped and there are multiple air guide corrugations 2231.

[0153] By using the embodiments of this disclosure, by providing air guide corrugations 2231 on the third end face 223, when the third end face 223 faces the air outlet 101, the airflow can be dispersed by the air guide corrugations 2231 when it flows through the third end face 223, thereby reducing the wind speed and achieving windless air delivery.

[0154] Optionally, the wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit also includes an air guide plate 25, which is telescopically disposed at the lower part of the housing 10 and located in front of the air outlet 101. When the air outlet adjustment assembly 20 slides to the second position, the air guide plate 25 extends out of the housing 10.

[0155] Thus, combined Figure 5 As shown, when the air guide plate 25 extends out of the housing 10, the air guide plate 25 can block the airflow from flowing forward, so that the airflow flows directly downward, thus achieving vertical downward air delivery.

[0156] This disclosure provides an air conditioner, which includes a wall-mounted indoor unit as described in any of the optional embodiments above.

[0157] The air conditioner using the embodiments of this disclosure includes the wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit of any of the above embodiments, and therefore has the beneficial effects of the wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit of any of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.
