[0049] Alternatively, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the air outlet air conditioner further includes a filter module 160. A filter socket 161 is provided above the air inlet 101, and the filter module 160 is inserted into the second chamber 112 through the filter socket 161 and is located between the air supply fan 131 and the air inlet 101. In this way, the filter module 160 can be installed through the filter socket 161 without disassembling the housing 100, which is simple to operate and easy to replace.

[0050] Optionally, the filter module 160 is fixed in the second chamber 112 by using a magnetic structure.

[0051] In this embodiment, the filter module 160 includes a filter body and a filter frame, and the filter body is installed in the filter frame.

[0056] Optionally, the kitchen air conditioner further comprises a wind shield, which is movably arranged at the vent 201 to block or avoid the vent 201. The wind shield can block the vent 201, thereby adjusting the air volume of the vent 201, so that the air volume of the air outlet 102 can be adjusted without adjusting the angle of the air guide plate at the air outlet 102.

[0057] Alternatively, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first chamber 111 is located above the second chamber 112, and the vent 201 extends downward to form an air guide enclosure 210, and the air guide enclosure 210 is provided with a avoidance opening; the wind shield is arranged on one side of the air guide enclosure 210 and corresponds to the avoidance opening; the wind shield can pass through the avoidance opening and extend into the air guide enclosure 210 to shield the vent 201.

[0058] In this embodiment, the wind guide enclosure 210 extends into the second chamber 112, and its escape opening is matched with the wind shield plate, so that the wind shield plate can smoothly extend into the wind guide enclosure 210 through the escape opening, and the air in the wind guide enclosure 210 can also be reduced from leaking from the escape opening.

[0059] Optionally, when the wind shield completely avoids the vent 201, one end of the wind shield facing the vent 201 is located in the avoidance opening. In this way, air leakage from the avoidance opening can be avoided, and the avoidance opening can always support the wind shield.

[0060] Optionally, the air supply fan 131 is disposed in the second chamber 112 , and a fan outlet thereof is connected to the air guide enclosure 210 , so as to supply air to the vent 201 through the air guide enclosure 210 .

[0061] Optionally, the kitchen air conditioner also includes an evaporator 130, and a first water receiving tray 200 is provided below the evaporator 130; a second water receiving tray 220 is provided below the condenser 140 and is partially located in the second water receiving tray 220, and the first water receiving tray 200 is connected to the second water receiving tray 220 through a condensation water pipe 221.

[0062] In this embodiment, the low-temperature condensed water generated on the evaporator 130 flows into the first water receiving pan 200, and then flows into the second water receiving pan 220 through the condensed water pipe 221. Since the lower part of the condenser 140 is located in the second water receiving pan 220, the low-temperature condensed water can be used to exchange heat with the high-temperature refrigerant in the fluid channel, thereby improving the condensation effect.

[0063] Optionally, a drainage pump 230 is provided in the second water receiving tray 220 , and the drainage pump 230 has a first drainage pipeline, and the first drainage pipeline is connected to the water inlet end of the hot water pipe through a third solenoid valve.

Here, the kitchen air conditioner 50 includes the kitchen air conditioner 50 described in any of the above embodiments.

[0065] In the kitchen air conditioning linkage system provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, the low-temperature cooling water in the inner end of the condenser 140 exchanges heat with the refrigerant between the inner tube and the outer tube to become high-temperature water, and the high-temperature water can flow into the hot water exchange pipe 301, and the hot water exchange pipe 301 exchanges heat with the water tank, so that the temperature of the water tank can be increased. In this way, when the water tank is filled with water, the temperature of the water can be increased, and hot water can be provided to the water tank, which is convenient for users to wash dishes and vegetables. At the same time, the temperature of the water tank is increased, and items to be thawed can also be placed there to facilitate thawing.

[0066] The water outlet of the tap water pipe 305 is connected to the water inlet of the inner tube, so that the low-temperature water flowing out of the tap water pipe 305 can also flow into the inner tube, avoiding the high temperature of the water flowing out of the hot water pipe 301, which affects the heat exchange of the condenser 140. By setting the tap water pipe 305, the water inlet temperature of the water inlet pipe of the inner tube can be guaranteed, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the condenser 140.

[0085] In the disclosed embodiment, the heat exchange water tank 302 is located below the water tank, and the heat exchange water tank 302 is filled with heat storage material, so that the heat of the heat exchange water pipe 301 arranged on the side wall of the heat exchange water tank 302 can exchange heat with the heat storage material. Since the opening of the accommodating cavity faces the bottom wall of the water tank, the heat of the heat storage material can be transferred to the bottom wall of the water tank, thereby increasing the temperature of the water tank and ensuring the continuity of the temperature. In this way, when the kitchen air conditioner 50 stops working, the heat storage material can still maintain heat for a period of time, avoiding users from frequently turning on the kitchen air conditioner 50.

[0086] For example, the heat storage material may be water, paraffin, or the like.

[0087] Optionally, the water exchange tank is located below the drain outlet of the sink, the water inlet end of the sink drain pipe 304 is located in the water exchange tank 302 and is connected to the drain outlet of the sink, and the drain end of the sink drain pipe 304 is connected to the outside.

[0088] In the disclosed embodiment, a sink drain pipe 304 is arranged below the sink drain port, and the heat exchange tank 302 wraps the sink drain pipe 304 in the receiving cavity, and the opening of the receiving cavity of the heat exchange tank faces the bottom wall of the sink, so that the temperature around the sink drain port can be increased, making the temperature of the sink more uniform. In addition, the water inlet end of the sink drain pipe 304 is located in the heat exchange tank 302, so that after the heat storage material and the heat exchange material heat the water in the sink, when the water in the sink is used up and discharged through the sink drain pipe 304, the water in the sink drain pipe 304 can also exchange heat with the heat storage material, thereby preventing the water in the sink drain pipe 304 from freezing.

[0089] Optionally, the kitchen air conditioning linkage system further comprises a water inlet pipe, which is connected to a drain outlet of the sink so that water in the sink can flow into the heat exchange water tank through the water inlet pipe.

[0090] In the disclosed embodiment, water can be stored in the heat exchange water tank, which can increase the temperature of the water in the heat exchange water tank and the temperature of the water sink corresponding to the heat exchange water tank. When cooking and emergency thawing is required, the items to be thawed can be placed in the position of the water sink corresponding to the heat exchange water tank to improve the thawing effect.

[0091] Optionally, a hot water exchange pipe is disposed on a side wall of the hot water exchange tank, and no hot water exchange pipe is disposed on a bottom wall of the hot water exchange tank.

[0092] In the disclosed embodiment, since the water exchange tank is located below the kitchen air conditioner, no water exchange pipe is provided on the bottom wall of the water exchange pipe, which can reduce the heat exchange between the water exchange pipe and the kitchen air conditioner and avoid affecting the heat dissipation of the kitchen air conditioner.

[0093] Optionally, the side wall of the heat exchange water tank includes an inner side wall and an outer side wall, the outer side wall is arranged outside the inner side wall, and the inner side wall defines a receiving cavity.

[0094] Optionally, the hot water exchange pipes 301 are evenly arranged in the water tank, so that the temperature of the water tank is more uniform.

[0095] Optionally, the density of the hot water exchange pipe 301 on the bottom wall of the sink is greater than the density of the hot water exchange pipe 301 on the side wall of the sink, so that the temperature of the side wall of the sink is lower, which can reduce the heat exchange between the sink and the tap water pipe or the outside air.

[0096] Optionally, the density of the hot water exchange pipe 301 on the front side wall of the sink is smaller than the density of the hot water exchange pipe 301 on the rear side wall of the sink. Here, since the front side wall of the sink is in contact with the operating space of the kitchen, when the kitchen air conditioner is working, it blows out cold air to lower the temperature in the kitchen. The hot water exchange pipe on the front side wall of the sink is smaller or no hot water exchange pipe is provided, which can reduce the impact of the sink temperature on the operation of the kitchen air conditioner and reduce energy consumption.

[0097] Optionally, the hot water exchange pipe 301 includes a first hot water exchange pipe and a second hot water exchange pipe. The first hot water exchange pipe is arranged in a water tank, and the second hot water exchange pipe is arranged in a hot water exchange tank 302.

[0098] Optionally, the kitchen air conditioner 50 includes a casing 100, which defines a first area 110 and a second area 120. An evaporator 130 and a fan are provided in the first area 110, and a compressor 150 and a condenser 140 are provided in the second area 120. The top wall of the first area 110 is higher than the top wall of the second area 120; wherein the heat exchange water tank 302 is provided between the top wall of the second area 120 and the bottom wall of the sink.

[0099] In the disclosed embodiment, the heat exchange water tank 302 is located between the top wall of the second area 120 and the bottom wall of the sink. This fully utilizes the gap between the kitchen air conditioner 50 and the sink, increases the heat exchange effect on the sink, and at the same time increases the heat dissipation area of ​​the heat exchange water pipe 301, thereby improving the working efficiency of the condenser 140.

[0100] Optionally, the kitchen linkage system also includes a table top, which is configured with a sink, and the kitchen air conditioner is located below the table top, wherein the table top includes a heat preservation area, and the heat exchange water pipe includes a third heat exchange water pipe, and the third heat exchange water pipe is arranged in the heat preservation area and can exchange heat with the heat preservation area, so that after the kitchen cooks the dishes, the cooked dishes can be placed in the heat preservation area for heat preservation.

[0101] Optionally, the tabletop in the heat preservation zone is made of heat conductive material to improve the heat exchange effect.

[0102] Optionally, the third heat exchange water pipe is placed against the bottom of the table to improve the heat exchange effect between the heat exchange water pipe and the table.

[0103] Optionally, a fourth solenoid valve is provided at the water inlet of the third water exchange water pipe, so that the fourth solenoid valve can be opened or closed according to usage requirements to avoid scalding users in the insulation area.

[0104] Optionally, the third water exchange pipe is connected in parallel with the water exchange pipe corresponding to the water tank, so that the heating of the water tank and the heating of the heat preservation zone can be operated independently, thereby improving the user experience.

[0105] Optionally, the kitchen air conditioner 50 also includes a detection device and a controller, the detection device is arranged at the water outlet end 3012 of the hot water exchange pipe 301; the controller is electrically connected to the first three-way valve and the detection device, and the controller is configured to control the connectivity state of the first three-way valve according to the temperature of the water outlet end 3012 of the hot water exchange pipe 301.

[0106] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the temperature of the water outlet 3012 of the hot water exchange pipe 301 is greater than or equal to the preset temperature, the controller controls the first inlet of the first three-way valve to be connected to the water outlet of the tap water pipe 305, so that the inner tube flows into the water with a lower temperature from the tap water pipe 305, avoiding the high temperature of the water flowing into the sleeve, so as to ensure the heat exchange effect of the condenser 140. When the temperature of the water outlet of the hot water exchange pipe 301 is lower than the preset temperature, the controller controls the second water inlet of the first three-way valve to be connected to the water outlet 3012 of the hot water exchange pipe 301, so that the circulation of water in the hot water exchange pipe 301 is realized, the heat is fully utilized, and energy consumption is saved.

[0107] Optionally, the controller is electrically connected to the second three-way valve, and the controller is configured to control the connection state of the second three-way valve according to the temperature of the water outlet end 3012 of the hot water exchange pipe 301.

Here, since the temperature of the water outlet 3012 of the hot water exchange pipe 301 is relatively high, the water in the hot water exchange pipe 301 will not flow out. Therefore, the second three-way valve is controlled to discharge the hot water after heat exchange in the inner tube through the sink drain pipe 304 to prevent too much hot water from flowing into the hot water exchange pipe 301 and breaking the hot water exchange pipe 301.

[0109] Optionally, there is a gap between the rear panel of the kitchen air conditioner 50 and the mounting base 40 to facilitate the installation of various pipelines.

[0110] Optionally, the air outlet of the kitchen air conditioner is located below the sink, which can reduce the interference of the airflow flowing out of the kitchen air conditioner with other electrical appliances such as gas stoves or range hoods, so as to ensure the cooling effect of the kitchen air conditioner.

The cold air blown out by the kitchen air conditioner can move downward, thereby improving the cooling effect.

[0112] Optionally, the water pipe and the sink drain pipe are both arranged in the gap, which can shield the water pipe and the sink drain pipe, facilitate the water supply of the kitchen air conditioner, and improve the appearance.

[0113] Optionally, the front panel of the kitchen air conditioner is recessed in the front wall of the sink, so that water from the sink can be prevented from flowing into the air outlet when flowing downward, thereby ensuring the air outlet effect.

[0114] Optionally, the condenser is further provided with an emergency drain port, which is communicated with the inner tube and is used to drain water from the inner tube. The emergency drain port is provided with a fourth solenoid valve, which can open or close the emergency drain port.
