During the operation of the air conditioner, the air duct component 5 can drive the air flow to enter the casing 1 through the first air inlet 21 and the second air inlet 31, and then the air flow flows into the air flow inlet 511, enters the heat exchanger component 52 through the air flow outlet, and after heat exchange with the heat exchanger component 52, the air flow is blown out to the room through the air outlet 252.

[0092] By locating at least part of the second air inlet 31 at the front side of the air inlet plane, since the airflow inlet 511 faces forward and the plane where the airflow inlet 511 is located is the air inlet plane, the resistance of the airflow entering through the second air inlet 31 can be reduced, and the shielding of the second air inlet 31 by the air duct component 5 can be reduced, so that during the process of at least part of the air entering from the second air inlet 31 flowing to the airflow inlet 511, its flow resistance is small and the flow is smoother. After the airflow flows through the air duct component 5, it is blown into the heat exchanger component 52 through the airflow outlet for heat exchange, and finally blown out to the room through the air outlet 252.

Since the air inlet plane is located on the rear side of the second air inlet 31, the air flow can be effectively guided to the air inlet plane through the guiding effect of the guide ribs 342 during the process of the air flow entering the casing 1 through the second air inlet 31, which can effectively increase the air flow from the second air inlet 31 to the air inlet plane and reduce the flow loss during the air flow, so that the air flow is smoother.

[0113] Reference Fig.16 and Fig.17 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the mounting structure 346 includes two mounting members 348 that are opposite to each other and spaced apart from each other. The mounting members 348 extend in the up-down direction. A slide groove 347 is formed on the mounting member 348 or a slide groove 347 is defined between the mounting member 348 and the side plate 34. The second filter screen 32 is mounted between the two mounting members 348. The mounting member 348 can limit the second filter screen 32 in the front-to-back direction.

When the bottom of the second filter 32 is against the supporting flange 349, the second filter 32 cannot continue to move downward, which can ensure that the second filter 32 is assembled in place and complete the installation process of the second filter 32.

[0118] Reference Fig.16 and Fig.23According to some embodiments of the utility model, the mounting member 348 includes a fixing portion 350 and a limiting portion 351, wherein the limiting portion 351 is connected to a side of the fixing portion 350 close to the second filter screen 32, the fixing portion 350 is connected to the side plate 34, and a slide groove 347 is defined between the limiting portion 351 and the side plate 34; the limiting portion 351 includes a first limiting rib plate 352 and a second limiting rib plate 353, wherein the first limiting rib plate 352 is opposite to the side of the second filter screen 32 in the front-to-back direction, and the second limiting rib plate 353 is opposite to the side plate 34 in the left-to-right direction and is located on a side of the second filter screen 32 away from the side plate 34.

The limiting portion 351 can prevent the second filter screen 32 from tipping over, thereby enhancing the stability of the cooperation between the second filter screen 32 and the side plate 34.

Since the top of the second limiting rib 353 is lower than the top of the first limiting rib 352, the second filter screen 32 can be inserted into the position limited by the first limiting rib 352 in the front-to-back direction. At this time, the second filter screen 32 is limited in the front-to-back direction, but not in the left-to-right direction. The second filter screen 32 can be inserted into the slide groove 347 with a relatively small force, and the second filter screen 32 can be continued to be inserted downward. When at least a part of the second filter screen 32 is located at the position limited between the second limiting rib 353 and the side plate 34, the second filter screen 32 is limited in the front-to-back and left-to-right directions, and the space of the slide groove 347 is more compact, and a greater force is required to continue to insert the second filter screen 32 downward into the slide groove 347.

[0123] Compared with the top of the second limiting rib 353 being flush with the top of the first limiting rib 352, the top of the second limiting rib 353 is lower than the top of the first limiting rib 352. When the second filter screen 32 is located on the first limiting rib 352 and is not opposite to the second limiting rib 353, the second filter screen 32 can be installed on the side panel 34 with relatively small force, and the second filter screen 32 can be prevented from being stuck during the assembly process due to the long slide groove 347, thereby making the assembly of the second filter screen 32 smoother during the overall assembly process of the second filter screen 32.
