[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0024] The embodiment of the present application provides a light external display structure to solve the problem that the light strip 4 installed in an external manner affects the appearance. The structure will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] In the embodiments of the present application, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a light display structure includes a guide ring 1 and a guide plate 2, and a light strip 4 is provided on the side of the guide plate 2 facing the guide ring 1. The guide ring 1 includes a first reflection surface 11 and a second reflection surface 12, and the second reflection surface 12 is connected to a side edge of the first reflection surface 11 away from the center of the guide ring 1. The angle between the first reflection surface 11 and the central axis of the guide ring 1 is greater than the angle between the second reflection surface 12 and the central axis of the guide ring 1. The guide plate 2 is located in the guide ring 1 and is spaced apart from the first reflection surface 11 and the second reflection surface 12 to enclose and form an air outlet 3. Here, the first reflection surface 11 and the second reflection surface 12 refer to surfaces that are not located in the same plane. The surfaces here can be planes or curved surfaces, and the first reflection surface 11 and the second reflection surface 12 can reflect the light irradiated thereon, so as to change the light path of the light strip 4. And the light strip 4 is arranged on the side of the guide plate 2 facing the guide ring 1 to realize the hidden setting of the light strip 4. When the light display structure is applied to the indoor unit of the air conditioner, the beauty of the product is guaranteed.

[0026] In some embodiments, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, at least a portion of the second reflective surface 12 and the light strip 4 are located in the radial direction of the guide plate, and the first reflective surface 11 and the second reflective surface 12 reflect the light emitted by the light strip 4 to the outside of the air outlet 3. It should be noted that at least a portion of the second reflective surface 12 and the light strip 4 are located in the radial direction of the guide plate 2, which means that along the radial direction of the guide plate 2, at least a portion of the structure of the second reflective surface 12 is directly opposite to the light strip 4, so as to reflect more light through the second reflective surface 12 to improve the display effect. In this way, part of the inner wall of the air outlet 3 is used as the first reflective surface 11 and the second reflective surface 12, and the light can be directly emitted through the air outlet 3 after reflection, so that the light emitted by the hidden light strip 4 can be observed outside the light display structure; and the display effect can be enhanced by the first reflective surface 11 and the second reflective surface 12 that are not located on the same surface.

[0027] In some embodiments, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the guide plate 2 gradually sinks along the direction close to the center of the guide ring 1 to form an approximately conical structure; the guide ring 1 gradually protrudes along the direction close to the center of the guide plate 2 to form an approximately truncated cone structure. The air outlet 3 extends in the direction from the guide ring 1 to the guide plate 2, and the light is emitted in the direction from the guide ring 1 to the guide plate 2.

[0028] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the angle between the first reflective surface 11 and the second reflective surface 12 is an obtuse angle. In this way, the light path of the light strip 4 is first changed by the first reflective surface 11, and then the light path is emitted as much as possible along the direction of the guide ring 1 pointing to the guide plate 2 through the second reflective surface 12, so that the light is gathered as much as possible on the side of the guide plate 2 away from the guide ring 1 to improve the brightness of the local area and enhance the display effect of the side of the guide plate 2 away from the guide ring 1.

[0029] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the angle between the first reflective surface 11 and the central axis of the guide ring 1 is 75°-80°. In this way, the width of the first reflective surface 11 can be effectively increased, so that a more obvious light band can appear on the guide ring 1.

[0030] In some embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the height of the second reflective surface 12 along the axial direction of the guide ring 1 is 3 mm to 4 mm. By adjusting the height of the second reflective surface 12, light loss can be reduced.

[0031] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the projection of the light strip 4 along the radial direction of the guide plate 2 is located on the first reflective surface 11. In this way, most of the light can be reflected on the first reflective surface 11, reducing light loss; and a small part of the light that does not irradiate the first reflective surface 11 is reflected by the second reflective surface 12, so that all or at least most of the light can be discharged out of the air outlet, increasing the brightness and display effect of the ambient light strip.

[0032] In some embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the connection between the first reflective surface 11 and the second reflective surface 12 is a smooth transition. Here, the smooth transition means that the connection between the first reflective surface 11 and the second reflective surface 12 is a curved surface that is concave in the direction away from the guide plate 2, which plays a role in further reflecting light.

[0033] In some embodiments, Figure 3As shown, the guide plate 2 includes a first guide surface 21 and a second guide surface 22, and the second guide surface 22 is connected to a side edge of the first guide surface 21 away from the center of the guide plate 2. Here, the first guide surface 21 and the second guide surface 22 refer to surfaces that are not located on the same plane. The second guide surface 22, the first reflective surface 11 and the second reflective surface 12 enclose the second section of the air outlet 3, and the width of the second section of the air outlet 3 increases along the air outlet direction. It should be noted that the second section of the air outlet 3 is defined relative to the first section of the air outlet 3. In some embodiments, the guide ring 1 also includes a ring body connected to the side of the first reflective surface 11 away from the second reflective surface 12. The first section refers to a structure formed by the ring body and the first guide surface 21. Along the air outlet direction, the airflow passes through the first section and the second section in sequence. In this way, the air outlet is expanded through the second section of the air outlet 3 to avoid blocking the fresh air, which is conducive to ensuring the fresh air volume.

[0034] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the second guide surface 22 does not block part of the first reflective surface 11 and the second reflective surface 12 along the axial direction of the guide plate 2. In this way, the amount of light emitted from the first reflective surface 11 and the second reflective surface 12 can be increased, thereby improving the display brightness.

[0035] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, an information display module 5 is provided on the side of the guide plate 2 away from the guide ring 1. Here, the information display module 5 is used to display the indoor temperature, air conditioning mode, time and other interactive information with the user; at the same time, the information display module 5 is arranged on the guide plate 2 and combined with the light strip 4 on the guide ring 1, so that the display information of the information display module 5 can be observed more clearly, and the overall display effect can be further beautified.

[0036] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the light strip 4 is installed in a ring shape on the guide plate 2, and the first reflection surface 11 and the second reflection surface 12 are both extended along the circumference of the guide ring 1 to form a ring surface. In this way, a more obvious halo can appear on the guide ring 1.

[0037] Furthermore, the second guide surface 22 extends along the circumference of the guide plate 2 to form a ring surface. In this way, the angle between the second guide surface 22 and the first reflection surface 11 is always maintained at the same angle, and the angle between the second guide surface 22 and the second reflection surface 12 is always maintained at the same angle, thereby ensuring that a halo with uniform brightness is formed at all locations.

Since the air conditioner indoor unit adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described one by one here.
