[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0033] In this application, the terms "installed", "set", "provided with", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral structure; it can be a mechanical connection, or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be an internal connection between two devices, elements, or components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0034] In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are mainly used to distinguish different devices, elements or components (the specific types and structures may be the same or different), and are not used to indicate or imply the relative importance and quantity of the indicated devices, elements or components. Unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.

[0035] The technical solution of the present application will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and drawings.

[0036] Please also read Figure 1 and Figure 2The embodiment of the present application provides a ceiling air conditioner 1, comprising a main body 11 and a panel 12. The main body 11 is provided with a ventilation cavity 111, and the side wall of the main body 11 is provided with an air inlet 112 connected to the ventilation cavity 111. The panel 12 is connected to the end of the main body 11, and the panel 12 has an end face 121 facing downward when the ceiling air conditioner 1 is assembled, and a first air outlet 122 connected to the ventilation cavity 111 is provided at the center of the end face 121, and a second air outlet 123 connected to the ventilation cavity 111 is also provided at a position adjacent to the edge of the panel 12.

[0037] It should be noted that the installation of the ceiling air conditioner 1 means that the ceiling air conditioner 1 is installed on the indoor ceiling. The shape of the main body 11 can be roughly a rectangular parallelepiped, and the panel 12 is connected to the end of the main body 11 in the length direction. When the ceiling air conditioner 1 is assembled, the length direction of the main body 11 is roughly parallel to the vertical direction, and the panel 12 has an end face 121 away from the main body 11 and roughly facing downward.

[0038] It is understandable that in the prior art, the air inlet 112 is usually set near the center of the panel 12 and the air outlet is set around the panel 12. During operation, air is taken in through the air inlet 112 and discharged through the air outlet. Since the air outlet is set around the panel 12, the wind output through the air outlet cannot be directly delivered to the area directly below the center of the panel 12, thereby affecting the user's experience. In order to solve this problem, the embodiment of the present application is provided with a first air outlet 122 at the center of the end surface 121 of the panel 12. Since the end surface 121 faces downward when the ceiling air conditioner 1 is assembled, the first air outlet 122 faces downward when the ceiling air conditioner 1 is assembled, and the wind output through the first air outlet 122 can be directly delivered to the area directly below the center of the panel 12. At the same time, the second air outlet 123 is arranged at a position near the edge of the panel 12, so that the wind output through the second air outlet 123 can be transported to other areas below the panel 12 (except the area directly below the center of the panel 12). Compared with the prior art in which the air inlet 112 is arranged near the center of the panel 12 and the air outlets are arranged around the panel 12, the direct coverage range of the air outlet of the ceiling air conditioner 1 can be expanded, and the user experience of the user in the area directly below the center of the panel 12 can be improved.

[0039] In addition, the air conditioner 1 for the ceiling unit also includes an evaporator 15 and an axial flow fan blade 16. The evaporator 15 is a heat exchanger that absorbs the heat of the cooled medium by evaporating the liquid low-temperature refrigerant into steam at low pressure to achieve a cooling effect. That is, when the refrigerant flows through the evaporator 15, the refrigerant will change from liquid to gas, and a large amount of heat will be absorbed in this process, so that the temperature of the wind flowing through the evaporator 15 is reduced, thereby achieving the purpose of cooling. The axial flow fan blade 16 can generate axial wind when it rotates under the drive of the motor.

[0040] Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the axial flow fan blade 16 is arranged in the ventilation cavity 111, and the axial direction of the axial flow fan blade 16 is substantially perpendicular to the panel 12, the air inlet 112 is located at the side of the axial flow fan blade 16, and the evaporator 15 is arranged on the main body 11 and is located between the air inlet 112 and the axial flow fan blade 16. When the axial flow fan blade 16 rotates, the axial flow fan blade 16 generates axial wind and delivers it to the panel 12, and outputs it from the first air outlet 122 and the second air outlet 123. After the axial flow fan blade 16 generates axial wind, the air pressure in the ventilation cavity 111 decreases, and the airflow enters the ventilation cavity 111 from the air inlet 112, thereby achieving the effect of continuous air discharge. Since the evaporator 15 is located between the air inlet 112 and the axial flow fan blade 16, when the airflow passes through the evaporator 15, the evaporator 15 absorbs the heat of the airflow, thereby reducing the temperature of the axial wind generated by the axial flow fan blade 16, and achieving a cooling effect after output.

[0041] Of course, it is understandable that the ceiling air conditioner 1 also includes a heater. When the axial wind generated by the axial flow blades 16 flows through the heater during the process of being output through the panel 12, the temperature of the air flow can be increased, thereby achieving a heating effect after output.

[0042] The working principle of the embodiment of the present application is:

[0043] The air flow enters the ventilation cavity 111 through the air inlet 112 on the side wall of the main body 11, and moves downward in the ventilation cavity 111 to the panel 12, and finally at least part of the air flow is output to the area directly below the center of the panel 12 through the first air outlet 122. If there is another part of the air flow, it can be output to other areas below the panel 12 (except the area directly below the center of the panel 12) through the second air outlet 123.

[0044] It can be understood that the embodiment of the present application sets the air inlet 112 on the side wall of the main body 11 and sets the first air outlet 122 on the panel 12. Compared with the prior art in which the air inlet 112 is set near the center of the panel 12 and the air outlets are set around the panel 12, since the air inlet 112 is located above the first air outlet 122 and the first air outlet 122 faces downward, and the distance between the air inlet 112 and the first air outlet 122 is relatively far, the wind output from the first air outlet 122 will not immediately enter the ventilation cavity 111 from the air inlet 112, so that the wind from the first air outlet 122 can fully exert the cooling and heating effects, thereby improving the cooling and heating effects of the ceiling air conditioner 1. Similarly, the second air outlet 123 is arranged on the panel 12. Since the distance between the air inlet 112 and the second air outlet 123 is also farther than the distance between the air inlet 112 and the air outlet in the prior art, the wind output from the second air outlet 123 will not immediately enter the ventilation cavity 111 from the air inlet 112, so that the wind from the second air outlet 123 can also fully exert the cooling and heating effects, thereby improving the cooling and heating effects of the ceiling air conditioner 1.

[0045] In summary, the ceiling air conditioner 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application increases the distance between the air inlet 112 and the first air outlet 122, and also increases the distance between the air inlet 112 and the second air outlet 123 by setting the air inlet 112 on the side wall of the main body 11, and setting the first air outlet 122 and the second air outlet 123 on the panel 12, so as to prevent the wind outputted by the first air outlet 122 and the second air outlet 123 from immediately entering the air inlet 112, so that the wind outputted by the first air outlet 122 and the second air outlet 123 can fully exert the cooling and heating effects, thereby improving the cooling and heating effects of the ceiling air conditioner 1. In addition, the first air outlet 122 is set at the center position of the end surface 121 of the panel 12, so that the wind outputted by the first air outlet 122 can be directly transported to the lower part of the center position of the panel 12, and the wind outputted by the second air outlet 123 can be combined to increase the direct coverage of the wind outputted by the ceiling air conditioner 1, thereby improving the user experience.

[0046] Please continue reading Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the second air outlet 123 is disposed at a position adjacent to the edge of the end surface 121 .

[0047] In this embodiment, the second air outlet 123 is disposed at a position adjacent to the edge of the end surface 121 , that is, the direction of the second air outlet 123 is the same as that of the first air outlet 122 .

[0048] In this embodiment, the air inlet 112 is arranged on the side wall of the main body 11, and the first air outlet 122 is arranged on the panel 12. Compared with the prior art in which the air inlet 112 is arranged near the center of the panel 12 and the air outlets are arranged around the panel 12, since the air inlet 112 is located above the first air outlet 122 and the first air outlet 122 faces downward, and the distance between the air inlet 112 and the first air outlet 122 is relatively far, the wind output from the first air outlet 122 will not immediately enter the ventilation cavity 111 from the air inlet 112, so that the wind from the first air outlet 122 can fully exert the cooling and heating effects, thereby improving the cooling and heating effects of the ceiling air conditioner 1.

[0049] Similarly, the second air outlet 123 is arranged at a position adjacent to the edge of the end surface 121 of the panel 12, so that the direction of the second air outlet 123 is the same as that of the first air outlet 122, that is, the air inlet 112 is located above the second air outlet 123 and the second air outlet 123 faces downward. At the same time, the distance between the air inlet 112 and the second air outlet 123 is also farther than the distance between the air inlet 112 and the air outlet in the prior art. Therefore, the wind output from the second air outlet 123 will not immediately enter the ventilation cavity 111 from the air inlet 112, so that the wind from the second air outlet 123 can also fully exert the cooling and heating effects, thereby improving the cooling and heating effects of the ceiling air conditioner 1.

[0050] The working principle of this embodiment is:

[0051] The air flow enters the ventilation cavity 111 through the air inlet 112 on the side wall of the main body 11, and moves downward in the ventilation cavity 111 to the panel 12, and finally at least part of the air flow is output to the area directly below the center of the panel 12 through the first air outlet 122. If there is another part of the air flow, it can be output to other areas below the panel 12 (except the area directly below the center of the panel 12) through the second air outlet 123.

[0052] In some other embodiments, the second air outlet 123 may also be disposed on the side of the panel 12 .

[0053] Please continue reading Figure 2 In some embodiments, the panel 12 is further provided with a first channel 124 and a second channel 125 connected to each other. The first channel 124 connects the ventilation cavity 111 and the first air outlet 122 , and the second channel 125 connects the second air outlet 123 .

[0054] The first end of the first channel 124 is connected to the ventilation cavity 111 , and the second end of the first channel 124 is connected to the first air outlet 122 . One end of the second channel 125 is connected to the first channel 124 and between the first end and the second end, and the other end is connected to the second air outlet 123 .

[0055] The working principle of this embodiment is:

[0056] After the air flow enters the ventilation cavity 111 through the air inlet 112, the air flow enters the first channel 124 through the first end, at least part of the air flow in the first channel 124 passes through the second end and is output from the first air outlet 122 to the area directly below the center of the panel 12, and the other part of the air flow passes through the second channel 125 and is output from the second air outlet 123 to other areas below the panel 12 (except the area directly below the center of the panel 12).

[0057] In this embodiment, by providing the first channel 124 and the second channel 125, the airflow flowing from the ventilation cavity 111 to the first air outlet 122 and the second air outlet 123 can be more effectively managed and distributed, that is, the first channel 124 can ensure that the first air outlet 122 at the center of the panel 12 obtains sufficient airflow, and the second channel 125 can guide part of the airflow to the second air outlet 123 adjacent to the edge of the panel 12 for output.

[0058] In this embodiment, the air inlet 112 is arranged on the side wall of the main body 11, and the first air outlet 122 is arranged on the panel 12. Compared with the prior art in which the air inlet 112 is arranged near the center of the panel 12 and the air outlets are arranged around the panel 12, since the air inlet 112 is located above the first air outlet 122 and the first air outlet 122 faces downward, and the distance between the air inlet 112 and the first air outlet 122 is relatively far, the wind output from the first air outlet 122 will not immediately enter the ventilation cavity 111 from the air inlet 112, so that the wind from the first air outlet 122 can fully exert the cooling and heating effects, thereby improving the cooling and heating effects of the ceiling air conditioner 1. Similarly, the second air outlet 123 is arranged at a position adjacent to the edge of the end surface 121 of the panel 12, so that the direction of the second air outlet 123 is the same as that of the first air outlet 122, that is, the air inlet 112 is located above the second air outlet 123 and the second air outlet 123 faces downward. At the same time, the distance between the air inlet 112 and the second air outlet 123 is also farther than the distance between the air inlet 112 and the air outlet in the prior art. Therefore, the wind output from the second air outlet 123 will not immediately enter the ventilation cavity 111 from the air inlet 112, so that the wind from the second air outlet 123 can also fully exert the cooling and heating effects, thereby improving the cooling and heating effects of the ceiling air conditioner 1.

[0059] In some other embodiments, the second channel 125 may be directly connected to the ventilation cavity 111 .

[0060] Please also read Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments, the ceiling air conditioner 1 further includes a channel plate 13 , which is rotatably disposed in the second channel 125 to selectively connect or disconnect the second channel 125 with the first channel 124 .

[0061] Exemplarily, the channel plate 13 can selectively rotate between a first position and a second position to selectively connect or disconnect the second channel 125 with the first channel 124 .

[0062] For details, please refer to Figure 3 When the channel plate 13 is in the first position, the edge of the channel plate 13 can be completely fitted with the inner wall of the second channel 125, so that the second channel 125 is disconnected from the first channel 124. At this time, after the airflow enters the ventilation cavity 111 through the air inlet 112, the airflow in the ventilation cavity 111 enters the first channel 124 through the first end. Since the channel plate 13 disconnects the second channel 125 from the first channel 124, all the airflow in the first channel 124 can only pass through the second end and be output from the first air outlet 122 to the area directly below the center of the panel 12.

[0063] See also Figure 4 When the channel plate 13 rotates from the first position to the second position, the edge of the channel plate 13 is not completely in contact with the inner wall of the second channel 125, so that the second channel 125 is connected to the first channel 124. At this time, after the airflow enters the ventilation cavity 111 through the air inlet 112, the airflow in the ventilation cavity 111 enters the first channel 124 through the first end. Since the channel plate 13 connects the second channel 125 with the first channel 124, part of the airflow in the first channel 124 passes through the second end and is output from the first air outlet 122 to the area directly below the center of the panel 12, and the other part of the airflow passes through the second channel 125 and is output from the second air outlet 123 to other areas below the panel 12 (except the area directly below the center of the panel 12).

[0064] In summary, by providing the channel plate 13 , it is possible to selectively control whether the second channel 125 is connected to the first channel 124 , thereby changing the output path of the airflow.

[0065] In this embodiment, the air inlet 112 is arranged on the side wall of the main body 11, and the first air outlet 122 is arranged on the panel 12. Compared with the prior art in which the air inlet 112 is arranged near the center of the panel 12 and the air outlets are arranged around the panel 12, since the air inlet 112 is located above the first air outlet 122 and the first air outlet 122 faces downward, and the distance between the air inlet 112 and the first air outlet 122 is relatively far, the wind output from the first air outlet 122 will not immediately enter the ventilation cavity 111 from the air inlet 112, so that the wind from the first air outlet 122 can fully exert the cooling and heating effects, thereby improving the cooling and heating effects of the ceiling air conditioner 1. Similarly, the second air outlet 123 is arranged at a position adjacent to the edge of the end surface 121 of the panel 12, so that the direction of the second air outlet 123 is the same as that of the first air outlet 122, that is, the air inlet 112 is located above the second air outlet 123 and the second air outlet 123 faces downward. At the same time, the distance between the air inlet 112 and the second air outlet 123 is also farther than the distance between the air inlet 112 and the air outlet in the prior art. Therefore, the wind output from the second air outlet 123 will not immediately enter the ventilation cavity 111 from the air inlet 112, so that the wind from the second air outlet 123 can also fully exert the cooling and heating effects, thereby improving the cooling and heating effects of the ceiling air conditioner 1.

[0066] In some other embodiments, the channel plate 13 may also be disposed in the first channel 124 and adjacent to the connection port of the second channel 125 connected to the first channel 124 .

[0067] See also Figure 3 In some embodiments, the ceiling air conditioner 1 is configured such that when the ceiling air conditioner 1 is in a heating mode, the channel plate 13 disconnects the second channel 125 from the first channel 124 .

[0068] When the air conditioner 1 for the ceiling unit is in the heating mode, the channel plate 13 is in the first position, and the edge of the channel plate 13 can be completely fitted with the inner wall of the second channel 125, so that the second channel 125 is disconnected from the first channel 124. At this time, after the airflow enters the ventilation cavity 111 through the air inlet 112, the airflow in the ventilation cavity 111 enters the first channel 124 through the first end to form a hot airflow. Since the channel plate 13 disconnects the second channel 125 from the first channel 124, all the hot airflow in the first channel 124 can only pass through the second end and be output from the first air outlet 122 to the area directly below the center of the panel 12.

[0069] In the present embodiment, the hot air flows through the first air outlet 122 and is output to the area directly below the center of the panel 12. Since the first air outlet 122 faces downward and the distance between the center of the panel 12 and the ground is the shortest, the hot air flows through the first air outlet 122 and can quickly reach the ground. After reaching the ground, the hot air rises again to achieve a "carpet-style heating" effect, thereby not only improving the user experience of the user in the area directly below the center of the panel 12, but also improving the heating effect of the ceiling air conditioner 1.

[0070] In some other embodiments, the ceiling air conditioner 1 may also be configured such that when the ceiling air conditioner 1 is in the heating mode, the channel plate 13 connects the second channel 125 with the first channel 124 .

[0071] When the ceiling air conditioner 1 is in the heating mode, the channel plate 13 is in the second position, and the edge of the channel plate 13 is not completely in contact with the inner wall of the second channel 125, so that the second channel 125 is connected to the first channel 124. At this time, after the airflow enters the ventilation cavity 111 through the air inlet 112, the airflow in the ventilation cavity 111 enters the first channel 124 through the first end to form a hot air flow. Since the channel plate 13 connects the second channel 125 with the first channel 124, part of the hot air in the first channel 124 flows through the second end and is output from the first air outlet 122 to the area directly below the center of the panel 12, and another part of the hot air flows through the second channel 125 and is output from the second air outlet 123 to other areas below the panel 12 (except the area directly below the center of the panel 12).

[0072] In this embodiment, part of the hot air flows through the first air outlet 122 and is output to the area directly below the center of the panel 12. Since the first air outlet 122 faces downward and the distance between the center of the panel 12 and the ground is the shortest, the hot air flows through the first air outlet 122 and can quickly reach the ground. After reaching the ground, the hot air rises again to achieve the effect of "carpet heating", thereby not only improving the user experience of the user in the area directly below the center of the panel 12, but also improving the heating effect of the patio air conditioner 1. At the same time, another part of the hot air flows through the second air outlet 123, which can increase the direct coverage of the hot air flow, thereby improving the user experience.

[0073] Please see here Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some more specific embodiments, the ceiling air conditioner 1 further includes an air guide plate 14 , which is rotatably disposed on the panel 12 to selectively open or close the second air outlet 123 .

[0074] Exemplarily, the air guide plate 14 can selectively rotate between the third position and the fourth position to selectively close or open the second air outlet 123 .

[0075] Specifically, when the air guide plate 14 is in the third position, the edge of the air guide plate 14 can be completely in contact with the inner wall of the second air outlet 123, thereby closing the second air outlet 123. At this time, no matter whether the channel plate 13 is in the first position or the second position, after the airflow enters the ventilation cavity 111 through the air inlet 112, the airflow in the ventilation cavity 111 enters the first channel 124 through the first end. Since the air outlet is closed, all the airflow in the first channel 124 can only pass through the second end and be output from the first air outlet 122 to the area directly below the center of the panel 12.

[0076] When the air guide plate 14 is in the fourth position, the edge of the air guide plate 14 is not completely in contact with the inner wall of the second air outlet 123, thereby opening the second air outlet 123. At this time, after the airflow enters the ventilation cavity 111 through the air inlet 112, the airflow in the ventilation cavity 111 enters the first channel 124 through the first end, and the channel plate 13 is in the second position to enable the second channel 125 to communicate with the first channel 124. Part of the airflow in the first channel 124 passes through the second end and is output from the first air outlet 122 to the area directly below the center of the panel 12, and the other part of the airflow passes through the second channel 125 and is output from the second air outlet 123 to other areas below the panel 12 (except the area directly below the center of the panel 12).

[0077] It is understandable that, in order to simplify the control, the air guide plate 14 and the channel plate 13 can rotate in conjunction. Specifically, when the channel plate 13 is in the first position (i.e., the second channel 125 is disconnected from the first channel 124), the air guide plate 14 is in the third position (i.e., the second air outlet 123 is closed). When the channel plate 13 switches from the first position to the second position (i.e., the second channel 125 is connected to the first channel 124), the air guide plate 14 switches from the fourth position to the fourth position (i.e., the second air outlet 123 is opened).

[0078] In this embodiment, an air guide plate 14 is provided to prevent dust and the like from entering the second passage 125 through the second air outlet 123 and forming accumulation when the ceiling air conditioner 1 is not in use.

[0079] In some other more specific embodiments, the air guide plate 14 may also be slidably disposed on the panel 12 .

[0080] Please refer again Figure 4 In some embodiments, the ceiling air conditioner 1 is configured such that when the ceiling air conditioner 1 is in cooling mode, the channel plate 13 connects the second channel 125 with the first channel 124 , and the air guide plate 14 opens the second air outlet 123 .

[0081] When the air conditioner 1 of the ceiling unit is in cooling mode, the channel plate 13 is in the second position, and the edge of the channel plate 13 is not completely in contact with the inner wall of the second channel 125, so that the second channel 125 is connected to the first channel 124, and the air guide plate 14 is in the fourth position to open the second air outlet 123. At this time, the airflow passes through the air inlet 112, flows through the evaporator 15 and enters the ventilation cavity 111 to form a cold airflow, and the cold airflow in the ventilation cavity 111 enters the first channel 124 through the first end. Since the second channel 125 is connected to the first channel 124, part of the cold air in the first channel 124 passes through the second end and is output from the first air outlet 122 to the area directly below the center of the panel 12, and the other part of the cold air flows through the second channel 125 and is output from the second air outlet 123 to other areas below the panel 12 (except the area directly below the center of the panel 12).

[0082] In this embodiment, part of the cold air flows through the first air outlet 122 and is output to the area directly below the center of the panel 12, and the other part of the cold air flows through the second air outlet 123, which can increase the direct coverage range of the cold air flow and thus improve the user experience.

[0083] In some other embodiments, the ceiling air conditioner 1 may also be configured such that when the ceiling air conditioner 1 is in cooling mode, the channel plate 13 disconnects the second channel 125 from the first channel 124 , and the air guide plate 14 closes the second air outlet 123 .

[0084] When the air conditioner 1 of the ceiling unit is in cooling mode, the channel plate 13 can be in the first position, and the edge of the channel plate 13 can be completely fitted with the inner wall of the second channel 125, so that the second channel 125 is disconnected from the first channel 124, and the air guide plate 14 is in the third position to close the second air outlet 123. At this time, the airflow passes through the air inlet 112, flows through the evaporator 15 and enters the ventilation cavity 111 to form a cold airflow, and the cold airflow in the ventilation cavity 111 enters the first channel 124 through the first end. Since the second channel 125 is disconnected from the first channel 124, all the cold airflow in the first channel 124 can only pass through the second end and be output from the first air outlet 122 to the area directly below the center of the panel 12.

[0085] By concentrating all the cold air flows through the first air outlet 122 and outputting them to the area directly below the center of the panel 12 , the cooling effect on the area directly below the center of the panel 12 can be improved.

[0086] See also Figure 4 In some embodiments, the air guide plate 14 has an air guide surface 141 , and the air guide surface 141 is inclined toward the side of the panel 12 when the air guide plate 14 opens the second air outlet 123 .

[0087] In the first example, the air guide plate 14 has a first side end and a second side end opposite to each other, the rotation axis of the air guide plate 14 is located between the first side end and the second side end, and the air guide plate 14 has two opposite air guide surfaces 141, and the two air guide surfaces 141 are connected between the first side end and the second side end. When the air guide plate 14 is in the third position, the first side end and the second side end respectively fit the inner wall of the second air outlet 123 to close the second air outlet 123, and the first side end is closer to the first air outlet 122 than the second side end; when the air guide plate 14 is in the fourth position, the first side end rotates into the second air outlet 123, and the second side end rotates out of the second air outlet 123, so that the second air outlet 123 is opened on both sides of the first side end and the second side end, and at this time, the air guide surface 141 and the first air outlet 122 are relatively inclined.

[0088] When the air guide plate 14 is in the fourth position to open the second air outlet 123, the channel plate 13 can be in the second position to connect the second channel 125 with the first channel 124. At this time, after the airflow enters the ventilation cavity 111 through the air inlet 112, the airflow in the ventilation cavity 111 enters the first channel 124 through the first end. The channel plate 13 is in the second position to connect the second channel 125 with the first channel 124. Part of the airflow in the first channel 124 passes through the second end and is output from the first air outlet 122 to the area directly below the center of the panel 12, and the other part of the airflow passes through the second channel 125 and is output from the second air outlet 123 to the side and lower area of ​​the panel 12.

[0089] It should be noted that, during the process of the airflow being output through the second air outlet 123 , a portion of the airflow is output to the lower side area of ​​the panel 12 through the guiding effect of one of the air guide surfaces 141 , and another portion of the airflow is also output to the lower side area of ​​the panel 12 through the guiding effect of the other air guide surface 141 .

[0090] Through the guiding effect of the air guide plate 14 , the direct coverage range of the airflow output through the second air outlet 123 can be expanded.

[0091] In the second example, the air deflector 14 has a first side end and a second side end opposite to each other, the rotation axis of the air deflector 14 is located at the first side end, and the air deflector 14 has an air guide surface 141, which is connected between the first side end and the second side end. When the air deflector 14 is in the third position, the first side end and the second side end respectively fit the inner wall of the second air outlet 123 to close the second air outlet 123, and the first side end is closer to the first air outlet 122 than the second side end, and the air guide surface 141 faces upward; when the air deflector 14 is in the fourth position, the second side end rotates out of the second air outlet 123, so that the second air outlet 123 is opened on one side of the second side end, and at this time, the air guide surface 141 is relatively inclined to the direction of the first air outlet 122.

[0092] When the air guide plate 14 is in the fourth position to open the second air outlet 123, the channel plate 13 can be in the second position to connect the second channel 125 with the first channel 124. At this time, after the airflow enters the ventilation cavity 111 through the air inlet 112, the airflow in the ventilation cavity 111 enters the first channel 124 through the first end. The channel plate 13 is in the second position to connect the second channel 125 with the first channel 124. Part of the airflow in the first channel 124 passes through the second end and is output from the first air outlet 122 to the area directly below the center of the panel 12, and the other part of the airflow passes through the second channel 125 and is output from the second air outlet 123 to the side and lower area of ​​the panel 12.

[0093] It should be noted that, when the airflow is output through the second air outlet 123 , the airflow is guided by the air guide surface 141 and output to the lower side area of ​​the panel 12 .

[0094] Through the guiding effect of the air guide plate 14 , the direct coverage range of the airflow output through the second air outlet 123 can be expanded.

[0095] In some other embodiments, the wind guide surface 141 is parallel to the vertical direction when the wind guide plate 14 opens the second air outlet 123 .

[0096] Please refer again Figure 1 In some embodiments, the number of the second air outlets 123 is four, and the four second air outlets 123 are arranged around the first air outlet 122 .

[0097] The first air outlet 122 may be square.

[0098] There are four second air outlets 123 , which are arranged around the first air outlet 122 , and each second air outlet 123 is correspondingly arranged on an edge of the first air outlet 122 , which can further expand the direct coverage range of the airflow output through the second air outlet 123 .

[0099] In the embodiment of the present application, the air inlet 112 is arranged on the side wall of the main body 11, and the first air outlet 122 is arranged on the panel 12. Compared with the prior art in which the air inlet 112 is arranged near the center of the panel 12 and the air outlets are arranged around the panel 12, since the air inlet 112 is located above the first air outlet 122 and the first air outlet 122 faces downward, and the distance between the air inlet 112 and the first air outlet 122 is relatively far, the wind output from the first air outlet 122 will not immediately enter the ventilation cavity 111 from the air inlet 112, so that the wind from the first air outlet 122 can fully exert the cooling and heating effects, thereby improving the cooling and heating effects of the ceiling air conditioner 1. Similarly, the second air outlet 123 is arranged on the panel 12. Since the distance between the air inlet 112 and the second air outlet 123 is also farther than the distance between the air inlet 112 and the air outlet in the prior art, the wind output from the second air outlet 123 will not immediately enter the ventilation cavity 111 from the air inlet 112, so that the wind from the second air outlet 123 can also fully exert the cooling and heating effects, thereby improving the cooling and heating effects of the ceiling air conditioner 1.

[0100] In some other embodiments, the number of the second air outlets 123 may be less than four or more than four, which is not limited here.

[0101] In some embodiments, four air inlets 112 are disposed on the side wall of the main body 11 , and directions of every two adjacent air inlets 112 are perpendicular to each other.

[0102] The main body 11 may be a cuboid, and the main body 11 has four side faces facing different directions, and two adjacent side faces are perpendicular to each other, and each side face is provided with an air inlet 112 .

[0103] Providing four air inlets 112 can increase the air intake volume of the air inlets 112, thereby increasing the air output volume.

[0104] In the embodiment of the present application, the air inlet 112 is arranged on the side wall of the main body 11, and the first air outlet 122 is arranged on the panel 12. Compared with the prior art in which the air inlet 112 is arranged near the center of the panel 12 and the air outlets are arranged around the panel 12, since the air inlet 112 is located above the first air outlet 122 and the first air outlet 122 faces downward, and the distance between the air inlet 112 and the first air outlet 122 is relatively far, the wind output from the first air outlet 122 will not immediately enter the ventilation cavity 111 from the air inlet 112, so that the wind from the first air outlet 122 can fully exert the cooling and heating effects, thereby improving the cooling and heating effects of the ceiling air conditioner 1. Similarly, the second air outlet 123 is arranged on the panel 12. Since the distance between the air inlet 112 and the second air outlet 123 is also farther than the distance between the air inlet 112 and the air outlet in the prior art, the wind output from the second air outlet 123 will not immediately enter the ventilation cavity 111 from the air inlet 112, so that the wind from the second air outlet 123 can also fully exert the cooling and heating effects, thereby improving the cooling and heating effects of the ceiling air conditioner 1.

[0105] In some other embodiments, the number of the air inlets 112 may be less than four or more than four, which is not limited herein.

[0106] Although the present invention has been described with reference to preferred embodiments, various modifications may be made thereto and parts thereof may be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, the various technical features mentioned in the various embodiments may be combined in any manner as long as there is no structural conflict. The present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
