Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air conditioning, in particular to an air conditioning cabinet and an air conditioner. Background Art

[0002] An air conditioner is an electrical appliance commonly used to adjust the temperature and humidity of an indoor environment. An air conditioner usually includes an indoor unit and an outdoor unit, which are connected by a refrigerant pipe. The indoor unit can be divided into a wall mounted unit and a cabinet unit. The wall mounted unit usually needs to be mounted, while the cabinet unit can be placed directly on the ground. The basic structure and working principle of the indoor unit are similar. It includes a casing, a wind wheel and an evaporator arranged in the casing. The casing is provided with an air outlet, and the air heated by the evaporator is blown out from the air outlet under the action of the wind wheel. In order to adjust the air outlet direction, a rotatable air guide plate is also provided at the air outlet to adjust the air outlet direction by rotating the air guide plate.

[0003] When using the air conditioner, a certain vortex is easily formed on the outer wall of the casing near the air outlet, causing a certain amount of condensation water to be generated on the outer wall of the casing; the air conditioner provided by the related technology is difficult to improve the problem of condensation water dripping generated on the outer wall of the casing, thereby reducing the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0004] The problem solved by the utility model is how to improve the problem of poor user experience caused by condensation water dripping from the outer wall of the casing.

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides an air conditioning cabinet, comprising:

[0006] A casing, wherein the casing is provided with an air outlet;

[0007] The air guide plate is rotatably arranged on the housing and is located at the air outlet for adjusting the air outlet direction; wherein,

[0008] The outer wall of the casing is provided with a groove, and the groove is used to collect condensed water generated by the outer wall of the casing.

[0009] By providing a groove on the outer wall of the casing to collect condensed water, the problem of condensed water generated on the outer wall of the casing dripping along the outer wall of the casing can be improved, thereby improving the user experience.

[0010] In an optional embodiment, the length extension direction of the groove is parallel to or forms an angle with the extension direction of the rotation axis of the air guide plate.

[0011] Such a configuration makes it easier for the condensed water collected in the groove to flow smoothly along the groove from top to bottom, thereby facilitating the collection of the condensed water, improving the problem of condensed water dripping, and improving the user experience.

[0012] In an optional embodiment, the groove has a first end close to the top of the housing and a second end close to the bottom of the housing, and a width of the groove gradually decreases from the first end to the second end.

[0013] The direction of the condensed water flowing in the groove is from the end close to the top of the casing to the end close to the bottom of the casing. Accordingly, the groove is set to be tapered, which is conducive to accelerating the flow of condensed water in the groove, and then accelerating the collection and discharge of condensed water.

[0014] In an optional embodiment, the housing is provided with a drainage hole, which passes through the bottom of the groove. This arrangement enables the condensed water collected in the groove to be discharged through the drainage hole, and is not likely to drip from the groove onto the ground.

[0015] In an optional embodiment, the air conditioning cabinet further includes a water receiving tray, which is mounted inside the casing and is used to receive condensed water, and the drainage hole connects the groove and the water receiving tray.

[0016] In this way, the condensed water collected in the groove can be drained into the water collecting tray and discharged through the water collecting tray, which not only improves the problem of condensed water dripping from the outer wall of the casing, but also eliminates the need to connect other drainage pipes and other components to drain the condensed water collected in the groove. This simplifies the structural design of discharging the condensed water collected in the groove, reduces the configuration of redundant components, saves assembly processes, and reduces costs.

[0017] In an optional embodiment, the housing is provided with two grooves, and the two grooves are respectively located on both sides of the air outlet.

[0018] The wind can be blown to the opposite sides of the casing (for example, the left and right sides) by rotating the air guide plate. By providing grooves on both sides of the air outlet, when the air guide plate directs the wind to any side of the air outlet, it can be ensured that the condensation water generated on the side wall of the casing can be gathered in the corresponding groove, thereby effectively improving the problem of condensation water dripping and improving the user experience.

[0019] In an optional embodiment, the housing is further provided with an air guiding channel connected to the air outlet, and the air guiding channel is used to guide the flow of wind blown out from the air outlet.

[0020] Providing an air guide channel to guide the wind output from the air outlet can improve the problem of turbulent air output.

[0021] In an optional embodiment, the diameter of the air guiding channel gradually increases from an end close to the air outlet to an end far from the air outlet.

[0022] Setting the air guide channel as an expanded channel is conducive to spreading the wind, achieving the effect of temperature and humidity regulation more efficiently, and can also improve the problem of wind blowing directly towards the human body, causing physical discomfort.

[0023] In an optional embodiment, the casing includes two front panels spaced apart from each other, the front panels include a first plate and a second plate connected at an angle, an air guide channel is formed between the first plates of the two front panels, and the second plate is located on the side of the corresponding first plate away from the air guide channel; a groove is provided on the second plate.

[0024] When the air is discharged, a certain vortex will be generated at the connection between the first plate and the second plate, causing part of the wind to blow toward the second plate. Therefore, condensation water will be generated on the second plate. Setting a groove on the second plate can effectively collect the condensation water and improve the problem of condensation water dripping.

[0025] In an optional embodiment, the air guide plate is configured to be able to block or open the air outlet; wherein, when the air guide plate blocks the air outlet, the air guide plate is located at the intersection of the air guide channel and the air outlet.

[0026] Such an arrangement allows the air guide plate to retract relative to the front side of the casing when blocking the air outlet, which helps to improve the problem of the air guide plate being bumped.

[0027] The utility model also provides an air conditioner, comprising the air conditioner cabinet of any one of the aforementioned implementation modes.

[0028] When the air conditioner disclosed in the present invention is in use, the problem of condensed water dripping generated on the outer side wall of the casing of the air conditioner cabinet can be improved, thereby improving the user experience. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] When the air conditioner provided by the related technology is cooling, the cold air blown out from the air outlet tends to form a vortex in the casing near the air outlet, causing part of the cold air to blow onto the outer wall of the casing, thereby generating condensed water; and the condensed water flows and drips along the outer wall of the casing, resulting in a poor user experience.

[0040] The present embodiment provides an air conditioner, which can improve the problem of poor user experience caused by condensation water dripping from the outer wall of the casing.

[0041] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0042] The air conditioner includes an outdoor unit and an air conditioner cabinet 010 (such as Figure 1 As shown), the outdoor unit and the air-conditioning cabinet 010 are connected through a refrigerant pipeline.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The air conditioning cabinet 010 includes a casing 100, an evaporator 310, a wind wheel 320 and an air guide plate 200. The casing 100 is provided with an air outlet 101. The evaporator 310 and the wind wheel 320 are both assembled in the casing 100. The air exchanged by the evaporator 310 can be blown out from the air outlet 101 under the action of the wind wheel 320, thereby realizing the adjustment of the ambient temperature; the air guide plate 200 is rotatably assembled on the casing 100 and is located at the air outlet 101. The air guide plate 200 is configured to open or block the air outlet 101, and the air guide plate 200 can also be used to adjust the air outlet direction.

[0044] It should be noted that the air guide plate 200 and the wind wheel 320 are driven by corresponding motors mounted on the housing 100. The specific structure and working principle are similar to those of the related art and will not be described in detail here. The air guide plate 200 shielding the air outlet 101 may mean that the air guide plate 200 closes the air outlet 101, or the air guide plate 200 shields the air outlet 101 but leaves a certain gap.

[0045] In order to improve the cooling, the vortex formed at the air outlet 101 causes the cold air to blow toward the outer wall of the housing 100, resulting in condensed water on the outer wall of the housing 100 and the condensed water dripping. Figure 4 In this embodiment, the outer wall of the casing 100 is provided with a groove 102, and the groove 102 is used to collect condensed water generated by the outer wall of the casing 100; using the groove 102 to collect condensed water can improve the problem of condensed water generated by the outer wall of the casing 100 dripping along the outer wall of the casing 100, thereby improving the user experience.

[0046] It should be noted that the casing 100 has an installation space inside, the evaporator 310 and the wind wheel 320 are assembled in the installation space, and the outer wall of the casing 100 refers to the side wall of the casing 100 away from the installation space.

[0047] Furthermore, the length extension direction of the groove 102 is parallel to the extension direction of the rotation axis of the air guide plate 200 .

[0048] Optionally, the rotation axis of the air guide plate 200 extends in the vertical direction, and the length extension direction of the groove 102 extends in the vertical direction. The above-mentioned "vertical direction" is a relative direction, not an absolute vertical direction.

[0049] Such a configuration makes it easier for the condensed water collected in the groove 102 to flow smoothly from top to bottom along the groove 102, thereby facilitating the collection of the condensed water, improving the problem of condensed water dripping, and improving the user experience.

[0050] Of course, in other embodiments, the length extension direction of the groove 102 forms an angle with the extension direction of the rotation axis of the air guide plate 200, and the angle may be 1°, 10°, 30°, etc., which is not specifically limited here.

[0051] It should be noted that the terms "up" and "down" are relative positions, not absolute positions; among them, "up" refers to the position of the top of the air-conditioning cabinet 010 after it is assembled in place, and similarly "down" refers to the position of the bottom of the air-conditioning cabinet 010 after it is assembled in place.

[0052] Optionally, the groove 102 has a first end close to the top of the housing 100 and a second end close to the bottom of the housing 100, and the width of the groove 102 gradually decreases from the first end to the second end. The convergence flow direction of the condensed water in the groove 102 is from one end close to the top of the housing 100 to one end close to the bottom of the housing 100. Accordingly, the groove 102 is configured to be constricted, which is conducive to accelerating the flow of the condensed water in the groove 102, thereby accelerating the collection and discharge of the condensed water.

[0053] Of course, in other embodiments, the groove 102 may also be of equal width, that is, the width of the groove 102 remains unchanged from the first end to the second end; or, in other embodiments, the groove 102 may also be a flared groove, that is, the width of the groove 102 gradually increases from the first end to the second end, which is not specifically limited here.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 5 The housing 100 of this embodiment is provided with a drainage hole 103, which passes through the bottom of the groove 102. Such a configuration enables the condensed water collected in the groove 102 to be discharged through the drainage hole 103, and is not easy to drip from the groove 102 to the ground.

[0055] Furthermore, the air conditioning cabinet 010 also includes a water receiving tray (not shown), which is installed inside the housing 100 and is used to receive condensed water, and the drainage hole 103 connects the groove 102 and the water receiving tray. In this way, the condensed water collected in the groove 102 can be discharged into the water receiving tray and discharged through the water receiving tray, which not only improves the problem of condensed water dripping generated by the outer wall of the housing 100, but also does not need to connect other drainage pipes and other components to discharge the condensed water collected in the groove 102, simplifies the structural design of discharging the condensed water collected in the groove 102, reduces the configuration of redundant components, saves assembly processes, and reduces costs.

[0056] It should be noted that the width of the second end (i.e., the lower end) of the groove 102 of this embodiment is relatively small, and the diameter of the drainage hole 103 connected to the groove 102 can be set smaller accordingly to improve the problem that the drainage hole 103 is too large and affects the appearance of the casing 100.

[0057] It should also be noted that the bottom of the groove 102 refers to the side of the groove 102 opposite to the inner cavity of the housing 100. This arrangement can ensure that the condensed water collected in the groove 102 can reliably flow into the water receiving tank through the drainage hole 103.

[0058] Optionally, see Figure 5The housing 100 is also provided with a drainage channel 105, which is connected between the drainage hole 103 and the water receiving tray, and the diameter of the drainage channel 105 is larger than the diameter of the drainage hole 103; such a configuration can ensure the flow rate of condensed water flowing into the water receiving tray, and improve the problem of condensed water dripping caused by the condensed water flowing too slowly to the water receiving tray.

[0059] Optionally, the water receiving tray may be configured to receive condensed water formed on the evaporator 310 and condensed water generated on the inner wall of the housing 100. Of course, in other embodiments, the water receiving tray may be configured to receive only condensed water formed on the evaporator 310, or only condensed water formed on the inner wall of the housing 100, which is not specifically limited herein.

[0060] Optionally, the water receiving tray is connected to a drain pipe, and the drain pipe is used to drain the water received in the water receiving tray to improve the problem of water overflow in the water receiving tray.

[0061] It should be understood that in other embodiments, the groove 102 and the water receiving tray may not be connected through the drainage hole 103 , and the drainage hole 103 may be directly connected to a drainage pipe for directly draining the condensed water collected in the groove 102 .

[0062] Please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 In this embodiment, the air guide plate 200 is configured to guide the wind to the opposite sides (for example, the left and right sides) of the housing 100, and the housing 100 is provided with two grooves 102, which are respectively located on both sides of the air outlet 101. In this way, when the air guide plate 200 guides the wind to any side of the air outlet 101, it can ensure that the condensed water generated by the side wall of the housing 100 can be collected in the corresponding groove 102, thereby effectively improving the problem of condensed water dripping and improving the user experience.

[0063] Of course, in other embodiments, the number of the grooves 102 may be one, three, four, etc., which is not specifically limited here.

[0064] In the embodiment where the number of the grooves 102 is greater than or equal to two, in order to allow the condensed water collected in each groove 102 to flow into the water receiving tray, the housing 100 is provided with two or more drainage holes 103 corresponding to the grooves 102 one by one.

[0065] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 8 The housing 100 of this embodiment is further provided with an air guide channel 104 connected to the air outlet 101, and the air guide channel 104 is used to guide the flow of wind blown out from the air outlet 101. The air guide channel 104 is provided to guide the wind output from the air outlet 101, which can improve the problem of wind turbulence.

[0066] Furthermore, the diameter of the air guide channel 104 gradually increases from the end close to the air outlet 101 to the end far from the air outlet 101. Setting the air guide channel 104 as an expanded channel is conducive to diffusing the wind, achieving the effect of temperature and humidity regulation more efficiently, and also improving the problem of wind blowing directly to the human body, causing physical discomfort.

[0067] It should be understood that in other embodiments, the diameter of the air guide port may be of equal diameter, which is not specifically limited herein.

[0068] Optionally, when the air guide plate 200 blocks the air outlet 101, the air guide plate 200 is located at the intersection of the air guide channel 104 and the air outlet 101. This arrangement allows the air guide plate 200 to retract relative to the front side of the housing 100 when blocking the air outlet 101, which helps to improve the problem of the air guide plate 200 being bumped.

[0069] Of course, in other embodiments, when the air guide plate 200 blocks the air outlet 101, the air guide plate 200 may also be located at one end of the air guide channel 104 away from the air outlet 101, or approximately in the middle of the air guide channel 104, which is not specifically limited here.

[0070] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 In this embodiment, the housing 100 includes two front panels 120 spaced apart from each other, the front panels 120 include a first panel 121 and a second panel 122 connected at an angle, an air guide channel 104 is formed between the first panels 121 of the two front panels 120, and the two first panels 121 are away from the corresponding second panels.

[0071] The second plate 122 is located on the side of the corresponding first plate 121 away from the air guide channel 104; the groove 102 is provided on the second plate 122. When the air is discharged, a certain vortex will be generated at the connection between the first plate 121 and the second plate 122, so that part of the wind blows toward the second plate 122, and thus condensation water will be generated on the second plate 122; the groove 102 is provided on the second plate 122, so that the condensation water can be effectively collected and the problem of condensation water dripping can be improved.

[0072] Optionally, the first plate 121 and the second plate 122 are connected at an obtuse angle, and the angle between the two can be 93°, 100°, 120°, 135°, etc., which is not specifically limited here.

[0073] Of course, in other embodiments, the angle between the first plate 121 and the second plate 122 may also be a right angle or an acute angle, which is not specifically limited here.

[0074] Optionally, see Figure 2 and Figure 3The housing 100 includes a front enclosure 110 and a rear enclosure 130 that are interlocked and connected, and an installation space is formed between the front enclosure 110 and the rear enclosure 130. The evaporator 310, the wind wheel 320 and the water receiving tray are all assembled in the installation space; the air outlet 101 and the groove 102 are both arranged on the front enclosure 110. Such an arrangement ensures that the air conditioner cabinet 010 is easy to assemble.

[0075] Furthermore, the front shell 110 includes two side panels 123 and the two front panels 120 mentioned above, and the two side panels 123 and the second panels 122 of the two front panels 120 are connected one by one; the two side panels 123 are opposite and spaced apart, and the ends of the two side panels 123 away from the corresponding front panels 120 are connected to the rear shell 130; the two front panels 120, the two side panels 123 and the rear shell 130 together form an installation space.

[0076] When the air conditioner of this embodiment is in use, the air conditioner can use the wind wheel 320 to blow the air heated by the evaporator 310 out from the air outlet 101 to achieve the purpose of adjusting the ambient temperature.

[0077] In summary, the air conditioner of the present invention can improve the problem of poor user experience caused by condensation water dripping from the outer wall of the casing 100 .

[0078] Although the utility model is disclosed as above, the utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model shall be subject to the scope defined by the claims.
