Description

Background Art

[0002] The air outlet of the indoor unit of the air conditioner is usually a long and narrow strip-shaped opening area. Taking the wall-mounted indoor unit of the air conditioner as an example, the air outlet is usually an opening area with a large length in the horizontal direction and a small width in the height direction, and the opening area is generally located in the front lower part of the wall-mounted indoor unit of the air conditioner. However, due to the structure of the air conditioner, the width of the air outlet of the air conditioner is small and the air outlet resistance is large. Utility Model Content

[0003] The first purpose of the utility model is to provide an air outlet mechanism for an indoor unit of an air conditioner to solve the technical problem of small air outlet area in the prior art.

[0004] The utility model provides an air outlet mechanism for an indoor unit of an air conditioner, comprising an indoor unit panel, wherein the indoor unit panel comprises a front panel and a front lower panel, wherein the front lower panel is located below the front panel, and the front lower panel is provided with a front lower air outlet; the front panel is provided with a front air outlet, and the front air outlet is provided with a first wind shield, which is rotatably arranged at the lower edge of the front air outlet; the front lower air outlet is provided with an air dispersion plate, which is rotatably arranged at the upper edge of the front lower air outlet, the rotation axis of the first wind shield coincides with the rotation axis of the air dispersion plate, and the air dispersion plate is provided with a first air dispersion hole.

[0005] The beneficial effects brought by the air outlet mechanism of the indoor unit of the air conditioner of the utility model are:

[0006] By rotating the first wind shield at the front air outlet and rotating the wind dispersing plate at the front lower air outlet, the first wind shield can be opened to discharge air when the wind dispersing plate blocks the front lower air outlet, thereby increasing the air outlet area of ​​the air conditioner and improving the air volume. Moreover, since the rotation axis of the first wind shield coincides with the rotation axis of the wind dispersing plate, and the wind dispersing plate is rotatably arranged at the upper edge of the front lower air outlet, when the first wind shield is opened, it is downwardly away from the front panel, so the increased air outlet and the air flow blown outward along the first wind shield are also inclined upward, and will not be blown directly downward, so that the hotter or colder wind will not be blown directly to the user, thereby maintaining the user experience. In addition, since the rotation axis of the first wind shield coincides with the rotation axis of the wind dispersing plate, such an arrangement reduces the volume and height of the panel entity part of the air conditioner, and the internal panel of the entity part is to allow the rotation of the first wind shield and the second wind shield to have a fixed rotation axis. The reduction in the volume and height of the entity part can reduce the impact on the air outlet area and improve the utilization rate of the internal panel of the air conditioner.

[0007] In an optional technical solution, the first wind shield plate is transmission connected to a first driving mechanism, and the wind dispersion plate is transmission connected to a second driving mechanism. The first driving mechanism is located at a first end on the rotation axis of the first wind shield plate, and the second driving mechanism is located at a second end on the rotation axis of the wind dispersion plate. The first end and the second end are two ends in opposite directions.

[0008] By arranging the first driving mechanism at the first end of the rotation axis of the first wind deflector plate and the second driving mechanism at the second end of the rotation axis of the wind dispersion plate, and arranging the two at different ends, the height occupation of the internal space of the air conditioner can be reduced. Moreover, the pivoting structure of the first wind deflector plate and the wind dispersion plate can be arranged on the inner side of the ends of the two, that is, on the outer side of the pivoting structure, the driving mechanism is respectively arranged along the area extending away from the rotation axis, thereby reducing the occupation of the internal space of the air conditioner by the driving mechanism in the length direction and reducing the overall volume of the wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit.

[0009] In an optional technical solution, one of the first wind shield plate and the wind dissipation plate is provided with two elastic telescopic components, which extend in two opposite directions, and the other is provided with a recessed portion, each of which includes a protruding portion, and the recessed portion cooperates with the protruding portion of the elastic telescopic component.

[0010] By setting two elastic telescopic components in the first wind shield and the wind dispersion plate, the elastic telescopic components have a protruding part, and a corresponding recessed part is set in the other one, the elastic telescopic components can be compressed during the assembly process of the first wind shield and the wind dispersion plate, so that the protrusion of the protruding part is reduced, so that the part where the recessed part is located can be moved to the outer ends of the protruding part, and after the protruding part is aligned with the recessed part, the protruding part can be inserted into the recessed part to achieve the relative positioning of the first wind shield and the wind dispersion plate. The above structure can improve assembly efficiency and reduce production costs.

[0011] In an optional technical solution, the elastic telescopic component includes a compression elastic part and a male positioning part, one of the first wind shield plate and the wind dissipation plate is provided with a sliding countersunk hole, the male positioning part is slidably connected in the sliding countersunk hole, the male positioning part has the protrusion, and the protrusion is located at one end of the male positioning part protruding from the sliding countersunk hole; the compression elastic part is arranged in the sliding countersunk hole, one end of the compression elastic part abuts against the bottom of the sliding countersunk hole, and the other end of the compression elastic part abuts against the male positioning part.

[0012] By making the male positioning member slidably connected to the sliding counterbore, the sliding counterbore can be used to radially position the male positioning member, so that the protruding portion of the male positioning member bears the radial force brought by the recessed portion, so that the sliding counterbore and the recessed portion remain coaxial to ensure that the rotation axes of the first wind deflector and the wind dispersing plate are consistent. By using a compression elastic member arranged in the sliding counterbore to abut the sliding portion, when the protruding portion is pressed by an external force, the male positioning member can be retracted into the sliding counterbore, or the protruding length of the protruding portion can be reduced, thereby improving the convenience of installation.

[0013] In an optional technical solution, the male positioning member is provided with a receiving countersunk hole, at least a portion of the compression elastic member is received in the receiving countersunk hole, and an end portion of the elastic member abuts against the bottom of the receiving countersunk hole.

[0014] By providing an accommodating countersunk hole, the compression elastic part can be wrapped in the accommodating countersunk hole. On the one hand, the compression elastic part can be radially positioned to prevent its axis from bending during the extension and contraction process. On the other hand, the axial length of the matching section between the sliding countersunk hole and the sliding part is increased, thereby improving the positioning ability of the sliding countersunk hole to the male positioning part, thereby increasing the connection stiffness between the first wind deflector plate and the wind dissipation plate.

[0015] In an optional technical solution, one of the recessed portions is arranged in the first transmission portion; one of the recessed portions is arranged in the positioning portion, and the positioning portion is rotationally connected to the second transmission portion; one of the first transmission portion and the second transmission portion is transmission-connected to the first drive mechanism, and the other is transmission-connected to the second drive mechanism.

[0016] By arranging recessed portions on the positioning portion and the first transmission portion, and making the positioning portion rotatably connected to the second transmission portion, the portions of the first transmission portion and the positioning portion protruding from the plate body can be utilized to achieve docking with the elastic telescopic component, thereby reducing the overall volume and achieving positioning while realizing transmission.

[0017] In an optional technical solution, the positioning portion is provided with a positioning boss, and the positioning boss is inserted into the second transmission portion.

[0018] By setting the positioning boss, in addition to one end of the recessed portion being able to be radially positioned with the telescopic elastic component, the other end of the positioning portion can also be radially positioned with the second transmission portion, forming a simply supported beam support structure, thereby improving the concentricity of the positioning portion and the second transmission portion, thereby further improving the coaxiality of the rotation axis of the first wind shield plate and the rotation axis of the wind dispersion plate.

[0019] In an optional technical solution, a second wind shield is further provided on one side of the front lower air outlet, the second wind shield is rotatably connected to the front lower panel, and the second wind shield is configured to shield the front lower air outlet together with the wind dissipation plate.

[0020] By means of a second wind shield on one side of the front lower air outlet, the second wind shield can be used to block the airflow from blowing out. When the second wind shield and the wind dispersion plate jointly block the front lower air outlet and the first wind shield is opened, the airflow blown out of the air-conditioning duct can be discharged mainly through the second wind outlet; and when the second wind shield and the wind dispersion plate jointly block the front lower air outlet and the first wind shield is closed, the wind dispersion plate can be used to disperse the airflow to achieve zero wind feeling air outlet.

[0021] In an optional technical solution, the inner unit panel further includes a side panel, the side panel is located on two opposite side walls of the inner unit panel, and the side panel is provided with a second air dissipation hole.

[0022] By setting the second air dispersion hole on the side panel, the airflow can be dispersed appropriately. Although the degree of dispersion may not be as good as the first air dispersion hole, the air outlet of these two second air dispersion holes is not directly toward the user, so direct air outlet will not significantly affect the user experience. Because, for wall-mounted air conditioners, their height is usually significantly higher than the user's head and does not blow directly to the user.

[0023] The second purpose of the utility model is to provide an air conditioner to solve the technical problem of small air outlet area.

[0024] The utility model provides an air conditioner, which comprises a wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit. The wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit comprises a fan and the air outlet mechanism of the air conditioner indoor unit.

[0025] By arranging the above-mentioned air outlet mechanism for the indoor unit of the air conditioner in the air conditioner, the air conditioner accordingly has all the advantages of the above-mentioned air outlet mechanism for the indoor unit of the air conditioner, which will not be described one by one here.

[0044] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the utility model more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the utility model are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.

[0045] Embodiment 1:

[0046] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the air outlet mechanism of the indoor unit of the air conditioner provided in the first embodiment of the utility model; Figure 2 This is a side cross-sectional view of the air outlet mechanism of the indoor unit of the air conditioner provided in the first embodiment of the utility model. Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the air outlet mechanism of the indoor unit of the air conditioner provided in the first embodiment of the utility model includes an indoor unit panel 100, and the indoor unit panel 100 includes a front panel 110 and a front lower panel 120, the front lower panel 120 is located below the front panel 110, and the front lower panel 120 is provided with a front lower air outlet 121; the front panel 110 is provided with a front air outlet 111, and the front air outlet 111 is provided with a first wind shield 200, and the first wind shield 200 is rotatably arranged at the lower edge of the front air outlet 111; the front lower air outlet 121 is provided with a wind dispersion plate 300, and the wind dispersion plate 300 is rotatably arranged at the upper edge of the front lower air outlet 121, the rotation axis of the first wind shield 200 coincides with the rotation axis of the wind dispersion plate 300, and the wind dispersion plate 300 is provided with a first wind dispersion hole 310.

[0047] Among them, the air outlet mechanism of the indoor unit of the air conditioner in the present application is applied to the indoor unit of the wall-mounted air conditioner. The indoor unit panel 100 of the indoor unit of the wall-mounted air conditioner includes a front panel 110 mainly located at the front part and a front lower panel 120 mainly located at the front lower part. The traditional air outlet is mainly arranged on the front lower panel 120. Of course, the indoor unit panel 100 also includes a top panel and a side panel 130. For example, the air inlet of the indoor unit of the wall-mounted air conditioner is mostly arranged on the top panel. Since the top panel does not involve the solution of the present application, it will not be described in detail.

[0048] Those skilled in the art should understand that, generally speaking, the front lower air outlet 121 and the front air outlet 111 are both in a rectangular shape extending substantially in the horizontal direction, and the length directions of the front lower air outlet 121 and the front air outlet 111 are parallel and both in the horizontal direction. The front lower air outlet 121 and the front air outlet 111 are both connected to the air duct.

[0049] By rotatably setting the first wind shield 200 at the front air outlet 111 and rotatably setting the wind dispersion plate 300 at the front lower air outlet 121, the first wind shield 200 can be opened to discharge air when the wind dispersion plate 300 blocks the front lower air outlet 121, thereby increasing the air outlet area of ​​the air conditioner and improving the air outlet volume. Moreover, since the rotation axis of the first wind shield 200 coincides with the rotation axis of the wind dispersion plate 300, and the wind dispersion plate 300 is rotatably set at the upper edge of the front lower air outlet 121, when the first wind shield 200 is opened, it moves downward away from the front panel 110, so the increased air outlet and the airflow blown outward along the first wind shield 200 are also inclined upward, and will not be blown directly downward, so that the hotter or colder air will not be blown directly to the user, maintaining the user experience. In addition, since the rotation axis of the first wind shield 200 coincides with the rotation axis of the wind dissipation plate 300, such a configuration reduces the volume and height of the panel entity of the air conditioner, and the inner panel 100 of the entity is to allow the first wind shield 200 and the second wind shield 400 to rotate with a fixed rotation axis. The reduction in the volume and height of the entity can reduce the impact on the air outlet area and improve the utilization rate of the inner panel 100 of the air conditioner.

[0050] Figure 3 A front cross-sectional view of the air outlet mechanism of the indoor unit of the air conditioner provided in the first embodiment of the utility model; Figure 3 As shown, optionally, the first wind shield plate 200 is transmission-connected to the first driving mechanism 510, and the wind dispersion plate 300 is transmission-connected to the second driving mechanism 520. The first driving mechanism 510 is located at the first end on the rotation axis of the first wind shield plate 200, and the second driving mechanism 520 is located at the second end on the rotation axis of the wind dispersion plate 300. The first end and the second end are two ends in opposite directions.

[0051] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first end of the rotation axis of the first windshield 200 refers to the area where the extension line of the rotation axis of the first windshield 200 along the first direction is located, wherein the first direction is Figure 1 The second end of the rotation axis of the air dispersion plate 300 refers to the area where the extension line of the rotation axis of the air dispersion plate 300 along the second direction is located, wherein the second wind direction is Figure 1 As shown in the right direction. Since the rotation axis of the air diffuser 300 coincides with the rotation axis of the first air shield 200, the first end on the rotation axis of the first air shield 200 is also the first end on the rotation axis of the air diffuser 300; similarly, the second end on the rotation axis of the air diffuser 300 is also the second end on the rotation axis of the first air shield 200.

[0052] The first driving mechanism 510 is located at Figure 1 In the left area shown, the second drive mechanism 520 is located Figure 1The right side area shown. In this application, the front refers to the side of the wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit facing the main indoor space, and the rear refers to the side of the wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit facing the wall on which it is hung. The bottom refers to the side of the wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit facing the ground. The left and right can be defined based on the above-mentioned front, back and bottom, that is, when facing the wall, the observer's left hand direction is the left side, and the observer's right hand direction is the right side.

[0053] In this embodiment, the first drive mechanism 510 and the second drive mechanism 520 can be output directly by the output shaft of the motor, or can be output by the motor through gear transmission or reducer, which is not specifically limited in this application.

[0054] By arranging the first driving mechanism 510 at the first end of the rotation axis of the first wind deflector 200 and the second driving mechanism 520 at the second end of the rotation axis of the wind dispersion plate 300, the two are arranged at different ends, so that the height occupied by the air conditioner interior space can be reduced. In addition, the pivoting structure of the first wind deflector 200 and the wind dispersion plate 300 can be arranged on the inner side of the ends of the two, that is, on the outer side of the pivoting structure, the driving mechanism is respectively arranged along the area extending away from the rotation axis, thereby reducing the driving mechanism's occupation of the air conditioner interior space in the length direction and reducing the overall volume of the wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit.

[0055] Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the structure of a first air baffle in an air outlet mechanism of an indoor unit of an air conditioner provided in Embodiment 1 of the utility model; Figure 5 The structure diagram of the air dispersing plate in the air outlet mechanism of the indoor unit of the air conditioner provided in the first embodiment of the utility model; Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown, optionally, one of the first wind shield plate 200 and the wind dissipation plate 300 is provided with two elastic telescopic components 210, and the two elastic telescopic components 210 extend in two opposite directions, and the other is provided with a recessed portion 325, each elastic telescopic component 210 includes a protruding portion 2133, and the recessed portion 325 cooperates with the protruding portion 2133 of the elastic telescopic component 210.

[0056] In this embodiment, two elastic telescopic components 210 are provided at the lower part of the first windshield 200. Specifically, a long rod 220 fixedly connected to the windshield body 230 can be provided at the lower part of the first windshield 200, and the length direction of the long rod 220 is parallel to the length direction of the first windshield 200. More specifically, the long rod 220 can be integrally formed with the windshield body 230. The elastic telescopic components 210 are located at both ends of the long rod 220.

[0057] Two short rods 320 are disposed on the upper portion of the air dispersion plate 300 . The two short rods 320 are respectively located at the extension lines of the opposite ends of the long rod 220 . The above-mentioned recessed portions 325 are disposed on the opposite surfaces of the two short rods 320 .

[0058] Of course, in another implementation, it is also possible to swap the positions of the short rod 320 and the long rod 220 , that is, to arrange the short rod 320 at the lower part of the first wind shield 200 and the long rod 220 at the upper part of the wind dissipation plate 300 .

[0059] By arranging two elastic telescopic components 210 in the first wind shield 200 and the wind dispersion plate 300, wherein the elastic telescopic components 210 have a protruding portion 2133, and the other one is provided with a corresponding recessed portion 325, the elastic telescopic components can be compressed during the assembly process of the first wind shield 200 and the wind dispersion plate 300, so that the protrusion of the protruding portion 2133 is reduced, so that the part where the recessed portion 325 is located can be moved to the outer ends of the protruding portion 2133, and after the protruding portion 2133 is aligned with the recessed portion 325, the protruding portion 2133 can be inserted into the recessed portion 325 to achieve the relative positioning of the first wind shield 200 and the wind dispersion plate 300. The above structure can improve assembly efficiency and reduce production costs.

[0060] like Figure 3 As shown, optionally, the elastic telescopic component 210 includes a compression elastic member 211 and a male positioning member 213. One of the first wind deflector 200 and the wind dissipation plate 300 is provided with a sliding countersunk hole 221. The male positioning member 213 is slidably connected in the sliding countersunk hole 221. The male positioning member 213 has a protrusion 2133. The protrusion 2133 is located at one end of the male positioning member 213 protruding from the sliding countersunk hole 221. The compression elastic member 211 is arranged in the sliding countersunk hole 221, one end of the compression elastic member 211 abuts against the bottom of the sliding countersunk hole 221, and the other end of the compression elastic member 211 abuts against the male positioning member 213.

[0061] In this embodiment, the male positioning member 213 includes a sliding portion 2131 and a protruding portion 2133, the sliding portion 2131 is slidably connected to the sliding counterbore 221, and at least a part of the protruding portion 2133 is inserted into the recessed portion 325, wherein the outer dimension of the cross section of the sliding portion 2131 in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the male positioning member 213 is greater than the outer dimension of the cross section of the protruding portion 2133 in the same direction, in other words, the appearance of the sliding portion 2131 appears thicker than the protruding portion 2133. Specifically, in a further solution of this embodiment, the outer diameter of the sliding portion 2131 is larger than the outer diameter of the protruding portion 2133. In this arrangement, the end surface of the component where the recessed portion 325 is located can be used to abut against the step surface of the sliding portion 2131 facing the protruding portion 2133, thereby preventing the sliding portion 2131 from falling out of the sliding counterbore 221.

[0062] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the outer surfaces of the sliding portion 2131 and the protruding portion 2133 are both cylindrical. Correspondingly, the sliding counterbore 221 and the recessed portion 325 are both cylindrical counterbore. Therefore, in theory, the sliding portion 2131 can rotate in the sliding counterbore 221, and the protruding portion 2133 can also rotate in the recessed portion 325. Of course, in another implementation, only one of the sliding portion 2131 and the protruding portion 2133 can be cylindrical, and the relative rotation of the first wind shield 200 and the wind dissipation plate 300 can also be achieved. Correspondingly, in the recessed portion 325 and the sliding counterbore 221, as long as it is guaranteed to match one of the sliding portion 2131 and the protruding portion 2133 that is cylindrical, it can be a cylindrical counterbore. Even the recessed portion 325 and the sliding counterbore 221 are not cylindrical counterbores, as long as one of the two pairs of the sliding portion 2131 and the sliding counterbore 221, and the protruding portion 2133 and the recessed portion 325 can rotate relative to each other.

[0063] In addition, the compression elastic member 211 in this embodiment can be a cylindrical helical compression spring, or a compressive elastic element such as an elastic column can also be used.

[0064] By making the male positioning member 213 slidably connected to the sliding counterbore 221, the sliding counterbore 221 can be used to radially position the male positioning member 213, so that the protruding portion 2133 of the male positioning member 213 bears the radial force brought by the recessed portion 325, so that the sliding counterbore 221 and the recessed portion 325 remain coaxial, so as to ensure that the rotation axes of the first wind deflector 200 and the wind dispersing plate 300 are consistent. The compression elastic member 211 is arranged in the sliding counterbore 221 to abut against the sliding portion 2131, so that when the protruding portion 2133 is pressed by an external force, the male positioning member 213 can be retracted into the sliding counterbore 221, or the protruding length of the protruding portion 2133 can be reduced, thereby improving the convenience of installation.

[0065] like Figure 3 As shown, optionally, the male positioning member 213 is provided with a receiving countersunk hole 2135 , and at least a portion of the compression elastic member 211 is received in the receiving countersunk hole 2135 , and an end of the elastic member abuts against the bottom of the receiving countersunk hole 2135 .

[0066] Among them, at least a portion of the compression elastic member 211 is accommodated in the accommodating countersunk hole 2135, which means that when the compression elastic member 211 is in a natural state, a portion of the compression elastic member 211 is accommodated in the accommodating countersunk hole 2135, and when the compression elastic member 211 is compressed to the maximum extent, all or part of the compression elastic member 211 is accommodated in the accommodating countersunk hole 2135.

[0067] By providing the accommodating countersunk hole 2135, the compression elastic member 211 can be wrapped in the accommodating countersunk hole 2135. On the one hand, the compression elastic member 211 can be radially positioned to prevent its axis from bending during the extension and retraction process. On the other hand, the axial length of the matching section between the sliding countersunk hole 221 and the sliding part 2131 is increased, thereby improving the positioning ability of the sliding countersunk hole 221 to the male positioning member 213, thereby increasing the connection stiffness between the first wind deflector 200 and the wind dissipation plate 300.

[0068] In another implementation, the male positioning member 213 may not be provided with the accommodating counterbore 2135. That is, the end of the compression elastic member 211 directly abuts against the end surface of the sliding portion 2131 in the male positioning member 213 away from the protruding portion 2133, and a similar effect can be achieved.

[0069] like Figure 1 and Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown, optionally, a recessed portion 325 is arranged in the first transmission portion 323; a recessed portion 325 is arranged in the positioning portion 321, and the positioning portion 321 is rotationally connected to the second transmission portion 240; one of the first transmission portion 323 and the second transmission portion 240 is transmission-connected to the first driving mechanism 510, and the other is transmission-connected to the second driving mechanism 520.

[0070] In this embodiment, the first transmission part 323 and the positioning part 321 are the short rod part 320 with the recessed part 325, and both are fixedly connected to the wind dispersing plate 300. More specifically, the first transmission part 323 and the positioning part 321 are integrally connected to the wind dispersing plate 300. The second transmission part 240 is fixedly connected to the first wind shielding plate 200, and more specifically, it can be integrally connected. Correspondingly, the first transmission part 323 is in transmission connection with the second driving mechanism 520. Naturally, the second transmission part 240 is in transmission connection with the second driving mechanism 520.

[0071] The first transmission part 323 and the second transmission part 240 are respectively provided with a transmission column 241 at one end away from the elastic telescopic component 210, so as to be inserted into the first drive mechanism 510 or the second drive mechanism 520 accordingly. Among them, the transmission column 241 can be a square cylinder, a regular hexagonal prism, or even a triangular prism or a pentagonal prism. As long as it is a prism with a non-circular cross-section, it can transmit torque and can achieve coaxial alignment of the transmission column 241 with the power output end of the first drive mechanism 510 and the second drive mechanism 520. Even if the transmission column 241 is not a prism, the transmission column 241 can be in the shape of a pyramid or a cross head of a screwdriver.

[0072] Of course, in another implementation, if the elastic expansion component 210 is provided on the wind dispersing plate 300, and the recessed portion 325 is provided on the first wind shielding plate 200, then the first transmission portion 323 and the positioning portion 321 are both fixedly connected to the first wind shielding plate 200, more specifically, the first transmission portion 323 and the positioning portion 321 are both integrally connected to the first wind shielding plate 200. The second transmission portion 240 is fixedly connected to the wind dispersing plate 300, more specifically, it can be integrally connected. Correspondingly, the first transmission portion 323 is in transmission connection with the first driving mechanism 510. The second transmission portion 240 is in transmission connection with the second driving mechanism 520.

[0073] By setting the recessed portion 325 on the positioning portion 321 and the first transmission portion 323, and making the positioning portion 321 rotatably connected to the second transmission portion 240, the portions of the first transmission portion 323 and the positioning portion 321 protruding from the plate body can be utilized to achieve docking with the elastic telescopic component 210, so as to reduce the overall volume and perform positioning while realizing transmission.

[0074] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, optionally, the positioning portion 321 is provided with a positioning boss 3211 , and the positioning boss 3211 is inserted into the second transmission portion 240 .

[0075] In this embodiment, preferably, the length of the positioning boss 3211 is smaller than the length of the protrusion 2133, so as to ensure that when the protrusion 2133 is fully pressed into the sliding counterbore 221, there is enough width between the positioning portion 321 and the second transmission portion 240 for the positioning boss 3211 to move in, so that the positioning boss 3211 corresponds to the counterbore of the second transmission portion 240. In other words, if the annular end surface between the sliding portion 2131 and the protrusion 2133 is flush with the end surface of the long rod portion 220 in the natural state, then the distance from the natural state to the compression of the compression elastic member 211 to the maximum size is required to be greater than the length of the positioning boss 3211.

[0076] By providing the positioning boss 3211, the positioning portion 321 can be radially positioned with the telescopic elastic component at one end of the recessed portion 325, and the other end can also be radially positioned with the second transmission portion 240 to form a simply supported beam support structure, thereby improving the concentricity of the positioning portion 321 and the second transmission portion 240, thereby further improving the coaxiality of the rotation axis of the first wind shield plate 200 and the rotation axis of the wind dissipation plate 300.

[0077] In another implementation, the positioning boss 3211 may not be provided, that is, the positioning portion 321 may cooperate with the male positioning member 213, because the two elastic telescopic components 210 can already ensure the coaxial connection between the first wind shield 200 and the wind dispersion plate 300, and one of the first transmission portion 323 and the second transmission portion 240 is transmission-connected to the first driving mechanism 510, and the other is transmission-connected to the second driving mechanism 520, so that the coaxial hinge connection between the first wind shield 200 and the wind dispersion plate 300 can be achieved. However, as in the above-mentioned solution, the solution in which the positioning boss 3211 is provided to be inserted into the second transmission portion 240 has a higher connection rigidity.

[0078] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, optionally, a second wind shield 400 is further provided on one side of the front lower air outlet 121 , and the second wind shield 400 is rotatably connected to the front lower panel 120 , and the second wind shield 400 is configured to shield the front lower air outlet 121 together with the wind dispersion plate 300 .

[0079] In this embodiment, the second windshield 400 is disposed at the lower edge of the front lower air outlet 121. The specific structure of driving the second windshield 400 and the specific structure of rotating and installing the second windshield 400 are known technologies to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail in this application.

[0080] It should be noted that the second wind shield 400 is configured to block the front lower air outlet 121 together with the wind dispersion plate 300, which means that the wind dispersion plate 300 as a whole, together with the second wind shield 400, can block the front lower air outlet 121. It does not mean that after the second wind shield 400 and the wind dispersion plate 300 block the front lower air outlet 121, the front lower air outlet 121 will be completely unable to leak air. After all, the wind dispersion plate 300 is also provided with a first wind dispersion hole 310 for air discharge.

[0081] By means of the second wind shield 400 on one side of the front lower air outlet 121, the second wind shield 400 can be used to block the airflow from blowing out. When the second wind shield 400 and the wind dispersion plate 300 jointly block the front lower air outlet 121 and the first wind shield 200 is opened, the airflow blown out of the air-conditioning duct can be mainly discharged through the second wind outlet; and when the second wind shield 400 and the wind dispersion plate 300 jointly block the front lower air outlet 121 and the first wind shield 200 is closed, the wind dispersion plate 300 can be used to disperse the airflow to achieve zero wind feeling air outlet.

[0082] like Figure 1 As shown, optionally, the inner panel 100 further includes side panels 130 . The side panels 130 are located on two opposite side walls of the inner panel 100 , and the side panels 130 are provided with second air dissipation holes 131 .

[0083] Specifically, in this embodiment, the side panel 130 is provided with an air outlet grille, and the hollow portion on the air outlet grille is the second air dispersing hole 131. In other words, the second air dispersing hole 131 can be a long rectangular hole.

[0084] By providing the second air dispersion holes 131 on the side panel 130, the airflow can be dispersed appropriately. Although the degree of dispersion may not be as good as the first air dispersion holes 310, the air discharge from the two second air dispersion holes 131 is not directly toward the user, so direct air discharge will not significantly affect the user experience. Because, for a wall-mounted air conditioner, its height is usually significantly higher than the user's head and does not blow directly toward the user.

[0085] The operating principle of this embodiment is:

[0086] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, when the air conditioner is in the full air dispersing mode, the front air outlet 111 can be shielded by the first air shield 200, and the second air shield 400 and the air dispersing plate 300 can shield the front lower air outlet 121. Then the airflow in the air duct is not discharged from the front air outlet 111, but discharged from the first air dispersing hole 310 of the air dispersing plate 300, forming a zero wind feeling airflow.

Then the airflow in the air duct is not discharged from the front air outlet 111, part of the airflow is discharged from the first wind dispersion hole 310 of the wind dispersion plate 300 of the front air outlet 111, forming a zero wind sense airflow, and part of the airflow is discharged from the front air outlet 111 below the wind dispersion plate 300, and the second wind shield 400 guides the airflow.

Then the airflow in the air duct is not discharged from the front air outlet 111, and part of the airflow is discharged from the upper half of the front air outlet 111 and guided by the air dispersion plate 300.

Then the airflow in the air duct is basically discharged from the front air outlet 111 and guided by the first air shield 200.
