[0025] In this application, the word "exemplary" is used to mean "serving as an example, instance, or illustration." Any embodiment described in this application as "exemplary" is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous over other embodiments. The term "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0026] The present application embodiment provides a window air conditioner, such as Figure 1 to Figure 5 As shown, the window air conditioner includes a housing 100, an outdoor module and a ventilation module 300, wherein the outdoor module is arranged in the housing 100, the outdoor module includes an outdoor heat exchanger 210, and the housing 100 is provided with an outdoor air outlet connected to the outdoor module; the ventilation module 300 is arranged on the housing 100, and the ventilation module 300 includes an exhaust passage 310, and the exhaust passage 310 has an exhaust inlet 311 connected to the room and an exhaust outlet 312 connected to the outdoor air outlet. Optionally, the housing 100 includes a chassis, and the ventilation module 300 is arranged on the chassis of the housing 100.

[0027] The window air conditioner provided in the embodiment of the present application is provided with an outdoor air vent on the casing 100, and the outdoor air vent is connected to the exhaust outlet 312 of the exhaust channel 310 and the outdoor module respectively, so that indoor stale air can flow into the outdoor module through the exhaust channel 310 and the outdoor air vent in sequence, so that the indoor stale air exchanges heat with the outdoor heat exchanger 210, thereby recovering the cold energy of the indoor stale air, and at the same time improving the heat exchange efficiency of the outdoor heat exchanger 210 and improving the indoor air quality.

[0028] In some embodiments of the present application, the outdoor module further includes an outdoor fan 220, the outdoor air outlet is connected to the air inlet side of the outdoor fan 220, and the outdoor heat exchanger 210 is located at the air outlet side of the outdoor fan 220. By providing the outdoor fan 220, indoor turbid air can be more effectively blown to the outdoor heat exchanger 210, further improving the heat exchange efficiency of the outdoor heat exchanger 210.

[0029] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 The solid arrow in the figure represents the flow path of the indoor filthy air: when the ventilation module 300 turns on the exhaust mode, under the negative pressure of the outdoor fan 220, the indoor filthy air flows into the exhaust channel 310 from the exhaust inlet 311, and then flows out from the exhaust outlet 312, and then flows into the outdoor module through the outdoor air outlet, blows to the outdoor heat exchanger 210 and exchanges heat with the outdoor heat exchanger 210, thereby recovering the cold of the indoor filthy air, and the indoor filthy air after heat exchange is discharged to the outside. It can be understood that the indoor filthy air blowing to the outdoor heat exchanger 210 reduces the air temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger 210, and at the same time supplements the air volume, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the outdoor heat exchanger 210.

[0030] In some embodiments of the present application, the ventilation module 300 further includes an exhaust door body, which is disposed at the exhaust outlet 312 and is used to open and close the exhaust outlet. Specifically, the exhaust door body has an exhaust open state for opening the exhaust outlet 312 and an exhaust closed state for closing the exhaust outlet 312. By controlling the exhaust door body to switch to the exhaust open state, the exhaust mode of the ventilation module 300 is turned on; by controlling the exhaust door body to switch to the exhaust closed state, the exhaust mode of the ventilation module 300 is turned off.

[0031] Optionally, the exhaust door body can be rotatably covered at the exhaust outlet 312 to switch between the exhaust open state and the exhaust closed state. Alternatively, the exhaust door body can be translatedly covered at the exhaust outlet 312 to switch between the exhaust open state and the exhaust closed state.

[0032] Optionally, the ventilation module 300 further includes an exhaust drive, the output end of which is connected to the exhaust door body and can drive the exhaust door body to switch between an exhaust open state and an exhaust closed state to open or close the exhaust outlet 312. By providing the above-mentioned exhaust drive, it is beneficial to realize the automatic control of the ventilation module 300.

[0033] Specifically, the exhaust drive can drive the exhaust door body to rotate to switch between the exhaust open state and the exhaust closed state; or, the exhaust drive can also drive the exhaust door body to translate to switch between the exhaust open state and the exhaust closed state.

[0034] Exemplarily, the exhaust drive member may be a motor, which may directly drive the exhaust door body to rotate, so that the exhaust door body switches between the exhaust opening state and the exhaust closing state, so as to open or close the exhaust outlet 312; or, the motor may also drive the exhaust door body to translate through a transmission component (such as a gear and a rack), so that the exhaust door body switches between the exhaust opening state and the exhaust closing state, so as to open or close the exhaust outlet 312. Alternatively, the exhaust drive member may also be an electric push rod, which drives the exhaust door body to translate, so that the exhaust door body switches between the exhaust opening state and the exhaust closing state, so as to open or close the exhaust outlet 312.

[0035] In some embodiments of the present application, the ventilation module 300 further includes a fresh air channel 320 that is independent of the exhaust channel 310, and the fresh air channel 320 has a fresh air inlet 321 connected to the outside and a fresh air outlet 322 connected to the indoor. It is understandable that the ventilation module 300 is provided with the fresh air channel 320, and the fresh air inlet 321 and the fresh air outlet 322 of the fresh air channel 320 are connected to the outside and the indoor respectively, so that the outdoor fresh air can flow into the indoor through the fresh air inlet 321, the fresh air channel 320 and the fresh air outlet 322 in sequence, so that the indoor stale air can be discharged to the outdoor side while the outdoor fresh air can be introduced into the indoor, thereby further improving the indoor air quality.

[0036] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 3 to Figure 5 As shown, the ventilation module 300 also includes a ventilation housing 330 and a partition 340, and the partition 340 divides the internal space of the ventilation housing 330 into a fresh air channel 320 and an exhaust air channel 310 that are independent of each other. Specifically, the ventilation housing 330 has a first side wall 331 and a second side wall 332 that are oppositely arranged, the fresh air inlet 321 and the exhaust air inlet 311 are both arranged on the first side wall 331, and the fresh air outlet 322 and the exhaust air outlet 312 are both arranged on the second side wall 332.

[0037] Optionally, the ventilation module 300 further includes a fresh air door body, which is disposed at the fresh air outlet 322 and is used to open and close the fresh air outlet. Specifically, the fresh air door body has a fresh air opening state for opening the fresh air outlet 322 and a fresh air closing state for closing the fresh air outlet 322. By controlling the fresh air door body to switch to the fresh air opening state, the fresh air mode of the ventilation module 300 is turned on; by controlling the fresh air door body to switch to the fresh air closing state, the fresh air mode of the ventilation module 300 is turned off.

[0038] Optionally, the fresh air door body can be rotatably covered at the fresh air outlet 322 to switch between the fresh air open state and the fresh air closed state. Alternatively, the fresh air door body can be translatedly covered at the fresh air outlet 322 to switch between the fresh air open state and the fresh air closed state.

[0039] Optionally, the ventilation module 300 further includes a fresh air drive, the output end of which is connected to the fresh air door body and can drive the fresh air door body to switch between a fresh air open state and a fresh air closed state to open or close the fresh air outlet 322. By providing the above-mentioned fresh air drive, it is beneficial to realize the automatic control of the ventilation module 300.

[0040] Specifically, the fresh air driving member can drive the fresh air door body to rotate to switch between the fresh air open state and the fresh air closed state; or, the fresh air driving member can also drive the fresh air door body to translate to switch between the fresh air open state and the fresh air closed state.

[0041] Exemplarily, the fresh air driving member may be a motor, which may directly drive the fresh air door body to rotate, so that the fresh air door body switches between the fresh air opening state and the fresh air closing state, so as to open or close the fresh air outlet 322; or, the motor may also drive the fresh air door body to translate through a transmission component (such as a gear and a rack), so that the fresh air door body switches between the fresh air opening state and the fresh air closing state, so as to open or close the fresh air outlet 322. Alternatively, the fresh air driving member may be an electric push rod, which drives the fresh air door body to translate, so that the fresh air door body switches between the fresh air opening state and the fresh air closing state, so as to open or close the fresh air outlet 322.

[0042] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the window air conditioner further includes an indoor module, which is arranged in the housing 100, and the housing 100 is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet connected to the indoor room; the indoor module includes an indoor heat exchanger 410 and an indoor fan 420, and the air inlet is respectively connected to the fresh air outlet 322 and the air inlet side of the indoor fan 420, and the indoor heat exchanger 410 is located on the air inlet side of the indoor fan 420. By connecting the air inlet to the fresh air outlet 322 and the air inlet side of the indoor fan 420, the outdoor fresh air is first heat-exchanged by the indoor heat exchanger 410 and then discharged to the indoor room, thereby reducing the outlet temperature of the outdoor fresh air, avoiding the direct introduction of outdoor fresh air, which causes obvious fluctuations in indoor air temperature and affects the comfort of users.

[0043] Optionally, the indoor module also includes an air duct 430 , both ends of which are connected to the air inlet and the air outlet respectively, the indoor fan 420 is arranged in the air duct 430 , and the indoor heat exchanger 410 is arranged between the air inlet and the indoor fan 420 .

[0044] Specifically, Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 The dotted arrow in the figure represents the flow path of outdoor fresh air: when the ventilation module 300 turns on the fresh air mode, under the negative pressure of the indoor fan 420, the outdoor fresh air flows into the fresh air channel 320 from the fresh air inlet 321, and then flows out from the fresh air outlet 322, and then flows into the indoor module through the air inlet, blows toward the indoor heat exchanger 410 and exchanges heat with the indoor heat exchanger 410 to reduce the outlet temperature of the outdoor fresh air. The outdoor fresh air after heat exchange enters the air duct 430, and is finally discharged into the room from the air outlet.

[0045] In the above embodiments, the description of each embodiment has its own emphasis. For parts that are not described in detail in a certain embodiment, reference can be made to the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.

[0046] The window air conditioner provided in the embodiment of the present application is introduced in detail above.
