The existing kitchen air conditioner is provided with an air outlet on the panel body, and an air guide plate is provided at the air outlet. The air guide function is realized by the rotation of the air guide plate, and the air outlet is opened or closed by the air guide plate. In order to meet the rotation requirements of the air guide plate, a large gap needs to be reserved between the air guide plate and the wall of the air outlet. However, the kitchen environment is full of oil smoke, and the gap is easy to hide dirt and grime, which affects the appearance. Utility Model Content
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide a panel assembly and an air conditioner, which are helpful in avoiding dirt and grime from accumulating at the air outlet of the panel body and also helpful in improving the aesthetics of the panel assembly.

[0033] The principles and features of the present application are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the scope of the present application.
[0034] The embodiment of the present application provides a panel assembly for an air conditioner, which may be a kitchen air conditioner, but is not limited to a kitchen air conditioner. Figure 7 As shown, the air conditioner may include a casing 6, a panel assembly, a heat exchanger 7, a fan 8 and other structures. The heat exchanger 7, the fan 8 and other structures are installed in the casing 6. The casing 6 may be open at the lower end, and the panel assembly may be connected to the lower end of the casing 6 and cover the lower end opening of the casing 6.
[0035] like Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the panel assembly includes: a panel body 1, an air outlet assembly 2 and a driving mechanism.
[0036] Among them, Figure 6 As shown, the panel body 1 is provided with an air outlet area 121, and the air outlet area 121 is provided with an air outlet 1211. Figure 1 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The air outlet 1211 may be in the shape of an elongated strip, such as a rectangle.
[0037] The air outlet assembly 2 includes an air guide plate 21 and an air outlet plate 22. The air guide plate 21 is rotatably disposed at the air outlet 1211 and is configured to guide the air outlet direction. The air outlet plate 22 is movably disposed outside the air outlet 1211 and is configured to open or close the air outlet 1211. In addition, the air outlet plate 22 is adapted to the air outlet area 121 so that the air outlet area 121 can be covered when the air outlet plate 22 closes the air outlet 1211.
[0038] The driving mechanism is connected to the air outlet assembly 2, and is configured to drive the air outlet assembly 2 to move relative to the panel body 1. When the air conditioner needs to discharge air, the driving mechanism drives the air outlet plate 22 to open the air outlet 1211, and drives the air guide plate 21 to rotate to a desired position or continuously rotate to achieve the air guide function. When the air conditioner does not need to discharge air, the driving mechanism can drive the air guide plate 21 to rotate to a closed position to avoid interference between the air guide plate 21 and the air outlet plate 22, and drive the air outlet plate 22 to move to a position to close the air outlet 1211.
[0039] The panel assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a panel body 1, an air outlet assembly 2 and a driving mechanism. The air outlet assembly 2 includes an air guide plate 21 and an air outlet plate 22. The air guide plate 21 can rotate to achieve the air guide function, and the air outlet plate 22 can move relative to the panel body 1 to achieve the function of opening and closing the air outlet 1211. Since the opening and closing of the air outlet 1211 is independent of the air guide plate 21, a sufficient gap can be reserved between the air guide plate 21 and the wall of the air outlet 1211 to meet the rotation requirements of the air guide plate 21. Furthermore, the air outlet plate 22 is adapted to the air outlet area 121, and can cover the air outlet area 121 when the air outlet plate 22 closes the air outlet 1211. Therefore, the gap reserved between the air guide plate 21 and the wall of the air outlet 1211 can be completely covered by the air outlet plate 22, making it difficult for pollutants such as kitchen fumes to accumulate in the gap, thereby helping to avoid dirt and grime at the air outlet 1211; it is also helpful to reduce the gap exposed by the panel assembly, making the appearance of the panel assembly more concise, thereby helping to improve the aesthetics of the panel assembly. Moreover, compared with the inner air guide plate 21, the air outlet plate 22 is larger in size and has a larger opening space, so that users can clean the air outlet plate 22 more conveniently, which is helpful to reduce the accumulation of dirt during the use of the air conditioner.
[0040] In some exemplary embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the panel body 1 is further provided with a return air zone 123 and a decoration zone 122, and the air outlet zone 121, the decoration zone 122 and the return air zone 123 are arranged in sequence. The air outlet zone 121, the decoration zone 122 and the return air zone 123 can be arranged in sequence from front to back. The air outlet zone 121, the decoration zone 122 and the return air zone 123 can all be rectangular areas.
[0041] The return air zone 123 is provided with a return air outlet 1231 (such as Figure 1 As shown). The return air outlet 1231 may be in the shape of a long strip, such as a rectangle. The panel assembly further includes a return air plate 4, such as Figures 2 to 6 The return air plate 4 is movably disposed at the return air port 1231, and is configured to open or close the return air port 1231. In addition, the return air plate 4 is adapted to the return air zone 123, so that the return air zone 123 can be covered when the return air plate 4 closes the return air port 1231.
[0042] The decoration area 122 separates the return air area 123 from the outlet air area 121 , which helps to avoid the return air flow and the outlet air flow from interfering with each other.
[0043] In the related art, a return air grille or a return air plate 4 is provided at the return air port 1231, and the return air grille or the return air plate 4 is embedded in the return air port 1231. The assembly gap between the return air port 1231 and the return air grille or the return air plate 4 can be seen, such as Figure 1 In the embodiment of the present application, the return air port 1231 can be closed by the return air plate 4 when not in use, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, it is helpful to avoid dirt and grime at the return air port 1231. The return air plate 4 is adapted to the return air area 123, and can cover the return air area 123 when the return air plate 4 closes the return air port 1231, which is also helpful to reduce the gap exposed by the panel assembly, making the appearance of the panel assembly more concise, thereby improving the aesthetics of the panel assembly.
[0044] The movement of the return air plate 4 is not restricted. For example, the return air plate 4 can be rotatably arranged at the return air outlet 1231 through a rotating connection structure, can be lifted and lowered at the return air outlet 1231 through a lifting structure, or can be slidably arranged at the return air outlet 1231 through a moving mechanism.
[0045] In some exemplary embodiments, the decoration area 122 is provided with an inspection port 1221, such as Figure 1 The inspection opening 1221 may be in the shape of a long strip, such as a rectangle. The panel assembly further includes a decorative panel 5, such as Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the decorative plate 5 is detachably connected to the panel body 1 and is configured to open or close the inspection opening 1221. In addition, the decorative plate 5 is adapted to the decorative area 122 so that the decorative plate 5 can cover the decorative area 122 when closing the inspection opening 1221.
[0046] When the air conditioner needs to be repaired, the decorative panel 5 can be removed and the internal structure of the air conditioner (such as the electric control box and other structures) can be repaired through the inspection port 1221.
[0047] In the related art, the decorative panel 5 is embedded in the inspection opening 1221, and the assembly gap between the inspection opening 1221 and the decorative panel 5 can be seen, such as Figure 1 In the embodiment of the present application, the decorative plate 5 is adapted to the decorative area 122, and can cover the decorative area 122 when the decorative plate 5 closes the return air outlet 1231, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it is also helpful to reduce the exposed gap of the panel assembly, making the appearance of the panel assembly more concise, thereby helping to improve the aesthetics of the panel assembly.
[0048] There is no restriction on the detachable connection method between the decorative plate 5 and the panel body 1 . For example, the decorative plate 5 can be detachably connected to the panel body by means of fasteners (such as screws) or snaps.
[0049] In some exemplary embodiments, the panel body 1 includes a panel base 11 and a bottom plate 12 disposed at the bottom of the panel base 11. The bottom plate 12 is provided with an air outlet area 121, a decoration area 122 and a return air area 123. Figure 6 As shown. Figure 6 In the figure, the air outlet area 121, the decoration area 122 and the return air area 123 are schematically demarcated by dotted lines.
[0050] like Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the bottom plate 12 can be a roughly flat plate structure, and the outer contour of the panel base 11 can be a rectangular parallelepiped. The area of the bottom plate 12 can be larger than the bottom area of the panel base 11. During the assembly process after leaving the factory, the panel base 11 can be embedded in the ceiling and hidden, and the bottom plate 12 can be exposed to ensure normal air outlet and return.
[0051] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the bottom plate 12 is configured to be shielded by the air outlet plate 22, the decorative plate 5 and the return air plate 4. The area of the air outlet plate 22 is larger than the area of the air outlet 1211, the area of the decorative plate 5 is larger than the area of the inspection port 1221, and the area of the return air plate 4 is larger than the area of the return air outlet 1231.
[0052] In this way, when the air conditioner is turned off, Figure 2 As shown, there are roughly only two gaps exposed on the panel assembly: the gap between the air outlet plate 22 and the decorative plate 5, and the gap between the decorative plate 5 and the return air plate 4. This effectively improves the integrated appearance of the panel assembly, making the panel assembly more beautiful and less prone to accumulation of oil smoke and dirt.
[0053] The driving mechanism may be mounted on the panel base 11 .
[0054] In some exemplary embodiments, the air outlet area 121 is provided with a guide slope 1212, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 The guide slope 1212 is configured to guide the air outlet plate 22 to move toward the decorative area 122 and avoid the decorative area 122 .
[0055] In this way, when the air outlet plate 22 needs to open the air outlet 1211, it can be moved toward the decorative area 122, and moved to below the decorative area 122. In this way, the air outlet 1211 is fully opened without protruding too much downward, and only the thickness of the air outlet plate 22 (about 1 cm) is protruded, and the effect on lowering the floor height can be basically ignored, which is conducive to improving user experience and does not affect the appearance.
[0056] Furthermore, the air outlet plate 22 can fully open the air outlet 1211, so that people can fully see the structure at the air outlet 1211, such as Figure 5 As shown, the user can more easily see the dirt at the air outlet 1211, which is helpful to reduce the accumulation of dirt during the use of the air conditioner.
[0057] In some exemplary embodiments, the length of the air guide plate 21 is smaller than the length of the air outlet 1211 .
[0058] In the related art, the air guide plate 21 needs to take into account the function of opening and closing the air outlet 1211 , so the length of the air guide plate 21 needs to be substantially equal to the length of the air outlet 1211 .
[0059] However, some other structures (such as the driving device of the air guide plate 21) are provided at the two end regions of the air outlet 1211, so the actual air outlet length of the air outlet 1211 will be shorter than the actual length of the air outlet 1211. In the embodiment of the present application, since the air guide plate 21 does not need to take into account the function of opening and closing the air outlet 1211, the length of the air guide plate 21 can be equivalent to the actual air outlet length of the air outlet 1211. Figure 5 As shown, there is no need to block other structures in the areas at both ends of the air outlet 1211, which is also beneficial for people to fully see the structure inside the air outlet 1211 and facilitate cleaning operations in the air outlet 1211 area.
[0060] In some exemplary embodiments, the rotatable angle range of the air guide plate 21 is greater than 90°.
[0061] In the related art, the air guide plate 21 must not only realize the air guiding function, but also take into account the opening and closing of the air outlet 1211. Therefore, the rotation axis of the air guide plate 21 is located in the area relatively behind the air outlet 1211 and the area relatively behind the air guide plate 21, so as to ensure that the air guide plate 21 can open and close the air outlet 1211 and that when the air outlet 1211 is opened, a relatively large portion of the air guide plate 21 can extend out of the air outlet 1211, so as to ensure a larger air supply distance. However, this will cause the rotatable angle range of the air guide plate 21 to be less than 90°, because when the air guide plate 21 rotates backwards, it will interfere with the rear side wall of the air outlet 1211 due to limited space, so the air guiding range is relatively limited.
[0062] In the embodiment of the present application, the opening and closing of the air outlet 1211 has nothing to do with the air guide plate 21. The setting position of the rotation axis of the air guide plate 21 is more flexible, so that the rotatable angle range of the air guide plate 21 can be greater than 90°, thereby achieving a wider range of wind guidance, which is beneficial to covering the user's activity area in the entire kitchen space.
[0063] In some embodiments, Figure 7 As shown, the projection of the rotation axis of the air guide plate 21 on the plane where the air outlet 1211 is located is located in the middle area of the width direction of the air outlet 1211, so that the rotatable angle range of the air guide plate 21 is greater than 90°. The rotation axis of the air guide plate 21 is located on the side of the air outlet 1211 away from the air outlet plate 22.
[0064] In this way, the air guide plate 21 rotates backward and is not likely to interfere with the rear end wall of the air outlet 1211, so it can have a larger rotation range, which is conducive to achieving a wider range of air guidance.
[0065] In one embodiment, the rotatable angle range of the air guide plate 21 is 90°<110°. In other words, the air guide plate 21 can rotate within a range of 0° to 110°.
[0066] In some exemplary embodiments, the air outlet plate 22 is configured to be slidably disposed outside the air outlet 1211, such as Figures 3 to 6 shown.
[0067] Of course, the movement of the air outlet plate 22 is not limited to sliding, and may also be rotation or other movement modes. As long as the air outlet 1211 can be opened and closed, it is within the protection scope of the present application.
[0068] In some embodiments, the driving mechanism includes a first driving device (not shown in the figure) and a second driving device, wherein the first driving device is connected to the air deflector 21 and is configured to drive the air deflector 21 to rotate. The first driving device may be the same as the driving device of a conventional air deflector 21, for example, the rotating shaft 211 of the air deflector 21 is driven to rotate by a motor.
[0069] The second driving device includes a driving member (not shown in the figure) and a transmission mechanism. The driving member is connected to the transmission mechanism. The transmission mechanism is connected to the air outlet plate 22 and is configured to drive the air outlet plate 22 to slide relative to the panel body 1 under the drive of the driving member.
[0070] Of course, the second driving device may not include a transmission mechanism, and the driving member may be directly connected to the air outlet plate 22 to drive the air outlet plate 22 to slide. For example, the second driving device may be an electromagnetic push rod, a linear motor, etc.
[0071] The second driving device may include two transmission mechanisms, which are respectively connected to both ends of the length direction of the air outlet plate 22. One transmission mechanism is connected to the driving member and is an active mechanism; the other transmission mechanism is connected to the panel body and is a driven mechanism.
[0072] In some embodiments, the transmission mechanism includes a gear 32 (eg, Figure 7 and Figure 8 The gear 32 is connected to the driving member, the rack is meshed with the gear 32, and the rack is fixedly connected to the air outlet plate 22.
[0073] The driving member may be a motor, and the gear 32 may be sleeved on the output shaft of the motor and rotate synchronously with the motor. The rack may be fixed to the air outlet plate 22 by means of fasteners (such as screws), snaps, etc., or may be integrally formed with the air outlet plate 22 (i.e., the rack portion is integrally formed on the air outlet plate 22). There may be multiple gears 32, and the coordination of multiple gears 32 may achieve a deceleration effect.
[0074] A support structure (not shown in the figure) may be provided between the panel body 1 and the air outlet plate 22 to prevent the air outlet plate 22 from falling downward. For example, a slide rail with an inverted T-shaped cross section may be provided on the bottom plate 12 of the panel body 1, and a slide groove with an inverted T-shaped cross section may be provided on the air outlet plate 22. The slide rail is inserted into the slot to guide and support the air outlet plate 22 to prevent the air outlet plate 22 from falling downward. Alternatively, the positions of the slide rail and the slide groove may be swapped, with the slide rail being provided on the air outlet plate 22 and the slide groove being provided on the panel body 1.
[0075] Of course, the transmission mechanism is not limited to a rack and pinion mechanism, and may also be a screw slider mechanism or other structural forms.
[0076] like Figure 7 As shown, an embodiment of the present application also provides an air conditioner, including a panel assembly as in any one of the above embodiments, and thus having all the above beneficial effects, which will not be described in detail in this step.
[0077] The air conditioner may be an indoor unit of a split-type air conditioner or an integrated-type air conditioner.
[0078] In some exemplary embodiments, the air conditioner is an embedded air conditioner, which can be embedded in the ceiling or in a suspended ceiling, and can be in the kitchen or in other spaces, such as a living room, bathroom or other places.
