[0042] Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical terms and scientific terms) used in the description of this embodiment have the same meanings as commonly understood by ordinary technicians in the technical field to which this application belongs.

[0043] With the advancement of science and technology and the development of economy, people's living standards are constantly improving, and the requirements for indoor temperature are getting higher and higher. At present, air conditioners have become a household appliance commonly used in people's daily lives. A vertical swing blade assembly is usually set at the air outlet of the air conditioning system, and the vertical swing blade assembly adjusts the wind direction of the air conditioning air by swinging.

[0044] In the existing vertical air conditioner indoor unit, the vertical swing blade assembly is usually integrally formed and located in an air duct. When the vertical swing blade assembly rotates, it can only rotate in one direction as a whole. Such a vertical air conditioner indoor unit can only blow directly and cannot be protected from direct blowing. Users who are blown from the front will feel too cold or too hot, while users who are not blown from the front will feel not cool enough or not warm enough, which brings a bad experience to users.

[0045] In view of the above problems, the embodiments of the present utility model provide a vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 that overcomes the above problems or at least partially solves the above problems, and can realize zoned air supply of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, realize different air outlet modes of multiple air supply channels, intelligently prevent direct blowing, realize large-range and wide-angle air supply, improve the cooling or heating effect of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, and enhance the user experience.

[0046] Figure 1 The schematic structure of a vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 1 , Figure 2 yes Figure 1 A schematic enlarged view of the middle part, Figure 3 The schematic structure of a vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 2 (It hides the air outlet frame 14), Figure 4 yes Figure 3 Schematic enlarged diagram of point B in the middle, Figure 5 is a schematic structural diagram of a first air supply channel 111 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 6 is a schematic structural diagram of the second air supply channel 112 according to an embodiment of the utility model. Figure 7 It is a schematic structural diagram of the first swing blade 21 according to an embodiment of the utility model.

[0047] like Figure 1-Figure 7As shown, the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 of the embodiment of the utility model comprises a housing 10 and a plurality of first swing blade groups 20. The housing 10 has a plurality of air supply channels, the plurality of air supply channels are arranged vertically, at least one of the plurality of air supply channels is open both forward and to a first lateral side, and at least one of the plurality of air supply channels is open both forward and to a second lateral side.

[0048] Multiple sets of first swing blade groups 20 are arranged one by one at the outlet 12 of the air supply channel, and each set of first swing blade groups 20 includes multiple first swing blades 21 arranged in the horizontal direction. Each first swing blade 21 extends vertically and can rotate around a vertical rotation axis to adjust the direction of the heat exchange airflow in the horizontal direction.

[0049] Each set of first swing blade groups 20 is configured to be independently controlled so as to adjust the direction of the heat exchange airflow at the outlet 12 of each air supply channel in the lateral direction.

[0050] Here, it can be understood that the housing 10 is defined with a plurality of independent air supply channels, and the plurality of air supply channels are arranged vertically up and down. The number of air supply channels is at least two, for example, it can be 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc. At least one of the plurality of air supply channels is open toward the left front side of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, and at least one of the air supply channels is open toward the right front side of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0051] At least one air supply channel is opened toward the front and toward the first lateral side at the same time (it should be noted that the description of "the first lateral side" is only for distinguishing the "second lateral side" that will appear in the context. In actual products, the "first lateral side" can be either the left side or the right side), so that the heat exchange airflow in the air supply channel is blown toward the front and toward the first lateral side at the same time. When the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 is working, air can be supplied toward the first lateral side.

[0052] In one embodiment, the first side is the left side of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, and the second side is the right side of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100. Among the multiple air supply channels, at least one air supply channel is open toward the left front side, and the outlet 12 of the air supply channel is located on the left side of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, and at least one air supply channel is open toward the right front side, and the outlet 12 of the air supply channel is located on the right side of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0053] The heat exchange airflow in the air supply passage opened toward the left front side is blown out toward the left front side of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 along the air supply passage, and the heat exchange airflow in the air supply passage opened toward the right front side is blown out toward the right front side of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 along the air supply passage.

[0054] In this way, the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 has at least two air supply channels blowing air in different directions, which can realize the surrounding air supply of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 in the air supply area, making the indoor heat exchange air flow distribution more uniform, expanding the air supply angle and air supply area, and improving user comfort.

[0055] Multiple sets of first swing blade groups 20 are arranged one by one at the outlet 12 of the air supply channel, at least one set of first swing blade groups 20 is located on the first lateral side of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, and at least one set of first swing blade groups 20 is located on the second side of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0056] The number of the first swing blade groups 20 is the same as the number of the air supply channels. When the number of the air supply channels is two, the number of the first swing blade groups 20 is two sets. When the number of the air supply channels is three, the number of the first swing blade groups 20 is three sets.

[0057] In some specific embodiments, a plurality of air supply channels are pre-separated on the casing 10, and a first swing blade group 20 is arranged at the outlet 12 of each air supply channel, and the first swing blade group 20 at each outlet 12 is independently controlled, so that the user can control the direction of the heat exchange airflow at the outlets 12 of the plurality of air supply channels respectively, thereby realizing different air supply modes of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0058] In one embodiment, the number of air supply channels is two, and the number of first swing blade groups 20 is correspondingly set to two sets. The two sets of first swing blade groups 20 are arranged one by one at the outlets 12 of the two air supply channels to respectively adjust the directions of the heat exchange airflows at the outlets 12 of the two air supply channels.

[0059] The controlled rotation of multiple sets of first swing blade groups 20 of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 can make the heat exchange air flow more evenly distributed indoors, reduce the temperature difference in corners or remote areas, avoid cold air flow or hot air flow directly blowing towards the human body, and improve the user's comfort.

[0060] Since the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 supplies air evenly, the indoor temperature can reach the set value more quickly, thereby shortening the operating time of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 and improving the energy efficiency of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0061] In each set of first swing blade groups 20, multiple first swing blades 21 are arranged horizontally, each first swing blade 21 is in a long strip shape, and its length direction is arranged vertically. Each first swing blade 21 can rotate around a vertical rotation axis, so that multiple first swing blades 21 can adjust the direction of the heat exchange airflow.

[0062] For example, when the plurality of first swing blades 21 in the air supply passage that is open toward the front and toward the first lateral side at the same time rotates from the back to the front and tilts toward the first lateral side, the first swing blades 21 guide the heat exchange airflow to be discharged obliquely toward the first lateral side. When the plurality of first swing blades 21 rotates to extend from the back to the front, the first swing blades 21 guide the heat exchange airflow to be discharged directly forward, so that the heat exchange airflow is directly mixed with the indoor air to quickly cool or heat.

[0063] In some specific embodiments, in each swing blade group, the rotation axes of the plurality of first swing blades 21 are arranged in the transverse direction, and they can be arranged strictly in the transverse direction, or can be arranged obliquely in the front-to-back direction. For example, the air supply channel is open to the front and to the first transverse side at the same time, and the plurality of first swing blades 21 at the outlet 12 of the air supply channel can be arranged from front to back in the direction from the first transverse side to the second side.

[0064] In one embodiment, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 Each set of first swing blade groups 20 includes four first swing blades 21, and the four first swing blades 21 are arranged at an outlet 12 of an air supply channel at intervals in the transverse direction to adjust the direction of the heat exchange airflow at the outlet 12 in the transverse direction. In other embodiments, the number of first swing blades 21 included in each set of first swing blade groups 20 can be set according to actual needs, for example, it can be set to 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, etc.

[0065] The vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 of the utility model embodiment has multiple air supply channels, and the multiple air supply channels are arranged vertically. At least one of the multiple air supply channels is open to the front side and the first lateral side at the same time, and at least one air supply channel is open to the front side and the second lateral side at the same time, so that the air supply channels are open to different directions, and the heat exchange airflow at the outlet 12 of the air supply channel is blown out in different directions, thereby realizing large-range and wide-angle air supply of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, improving the efficiency of mixing cold and hot air in the room, being able to effectively prevent direct blowing, and improving user experience.

[0066] In some embodiments, the multiple air supply channels include a first air supply channel 111 and a second air supply channel 112 located below the first air supply channel 111, the first air supply channel 111 is open to the front and to the first lateral side at the same time, and the second air supply channel 112 is open to the front and to the second lateral side at the same time.

[0067] Specifically, the first air supply channel 111 and the second air supply channel 112 are arranged vertically up and down, and the airflow at the two air supply channels is blown out from the inside of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 toward the front side. The first air supply channel 111 is located above the side of the second air supply channel 112, and the two air supply channels with different opening directions supply air in different horizontal directions respectively.

[0068] In this way, the heat exchange airflow in the first air supply channel 111 and the second air supply channel 112 is blown out toward different lateral sides, increasing the air supply angle of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, realizing surround-type air supply, making the indoor air circulation better and reducing the uneven indoor temperature.

[0069] The first air supply channel 111 and the second air supply channel 112 are arranged in sections up and down, so as to realize the surrounding air supply of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100. For example, the first air supply channel 111 located at the top is open toward the left front side, and the second air supply channel 112 located at the bottom is open toward the right front side. A part of the heat exchange airflow generated by the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 is blown out toward the left front side through the first air supply channel 111, and another part is blown out toward the right front side through the second air supply channel 112, which is conducive to realizing uniform mixing of indoor air.

[0070] In some other embodiments, it may also be configured that the airflow in the first air supply channel 111 located at the top is blown out toward the right side, and the airflow in the second air supply channel 112 located at the bottom is blown out toward the left side.

[0071] In some embodiments, the projections of the plurality of first swing blades 21 at the first air supply channel 111 and the plurality of first swing blades 21 at the second air supply channel 112 on the support plane of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 are staggered.

[0072] It can be understood that when the first air supply channel 111 and the second air supply channel 112 are projected on the same horizontal plane, the projection area of ​​the multiple first swing blades 21 in the first air supply channel 111 and the projection area of ​​the multiple first swing blades 21 in the second air supply channel 112 have overlapping parts.

[0073] In this way, the overall structure of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 can be made more compact, the space occupied by the first swing blade 21 can be reduced, and a richer sense of hierarchy can be formed visually, thereby improving the aesthetics of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0074] Each set of first swing blade groups 20 is independently controlled, and the multiple first swing blades 21 at the first air supply channel 111 and the multiple first swing blades 21 at the second air supply channel 112 are staggeredly arranged, which can provide a wider air supply angle and range. The cold and hot air can be better mixed at the outlet 12 of the air supply channel, so that the cold and hot air in the room are evenly mixed, reducing the discomfort caused by direct blowing on people.

[0075] In other embodiments, the first swing blade group 20 at the first air supply channel 111 and the first swing blade group 20 at the second air supply channel 112 may be completely staggered to increase the air supply area and air supply angle of the first swing blade group 20 .

[0076] In some embodiments, each set of first swing blade groups 20 further includes a driving assembly connected to the corresponding first swing blades 21 , and the driving assembly is configured to controllably drive all first swing blades 21 of the corresponding first swing blade group 20 to swing synchronously.

[0077] Specifically, there are multiple driving components, which are connected to the first swing blade groups 20 in a one-to-one correspondence to drive all the first swing blades 21 of the first swing blade groups 20 to swing synchronously. All the swing blades of each set of first swing blade groups 20 swing in the same direction, so that the heat exchange airflow passing through the first swing blade group 20 is blown out in the same direction under the guidance of the first swing blade group 20.

[0078] Each set of first swing blade groups 20 is connected to a driving component, and the user can individually adjust the swing speed and swing frequency of each set of first swing blade groups 20, enrich the air supply mode of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, and improve the air supply effect of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, thereby improving the user experience and comfort.

[0079] In one embodiment, the multiple first swing blades 21 of each set of first swing blade groups 20 are connected by a connecting piece, and one of the first swing blades 21 is connected to a driving component. Driven by the driving component, one first swing blade 21 swings, and the other first swing blades 21 swing synchronously through the connecting piece, so that the swinging of the multiple first swing blades 21 in the first swing blade group 20 can be conveniently controlled.

[0080] In some specific embodiments, the connecting member is a connecting rod, and the multiple first swing blades 21 in each set of the first swing blade group 20 are connected by the connecting rod. The first swing blade 21 is provided with an opening for the connecting rod to pass through, and a connecting rod is respectively provided at the upper part, the middle part, and the lower part of the first swing blade 21, so that the multiple first swing blades 21 in the first swing blade group 20 can rotate synchronously. The driving component is connected to a first swing blade 21 in the first swing blade group 20, and the first swing blade 21 can drive the other first swing blades 21 in the first swing blade group 20 to rotate synchronously under the action of the connecting rod.

[0081] In some specific embodiments, the driving assembly includes a stepper motor and a crank, and the stepper motor is connected to the first swing blade group 20 through the crank to provide power for the swing of the first swing blade group 20. A limit assembly for limiting the first swing blade group 20 is provided at the position of the driving assembly, and the swing angle of the first swing blade 210° to 135° can be achieved. The first swing blade 21 located in the air supply channel opened toward the left front side can be swung to the left to achieve a maximum of 0° closure, and can be swung to the right to 35°.

[0082] The first swing blade group 20 swings left and right in the horizontal direction under the drive of the motor, which can realize wide-range and wide-angle air supply. The vertically extended first swing blade group 20 has a good guiding effect on the heat exchange airflow, and can also disperse the airflow to make the blowing softer, and also play the role of closing the air outlet. Multiple sets of first swing blade groups 20 are arranged at intervals along the vertical direction, which can realize upper and lower partitioned air supply, effectively prevent direct blowing, and improve the cooling or heating effect of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, thereby improving the user experience and comfort.

[0083] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 further includes a support member 30, which is arranged in the horizontal direction and is located between the first air supply channel 111 and the second air supply channel 112, and is used to support the first swing blade 21. Specifically, the support member 30 is located between two adjacent first swing blade groups 20, and is respectively connected to the first swing blade groups 20 in the first air supply channel 111 and the second air supply channel 112 to support and fix the first swing blade 21.

[0084] The support member 30 serves to separate the first air supply channel 111 from the second air supply channel 112, so that the heat exchange airflow in the first air supply channel 111 and the heat exchange airflow in the second air supply channel 112 do not interfere with each other, thereby realizing the zoned air supply of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 and the independent blowing of multiple air supply channels.

[0085] In some embodiments, two adjacent sets of first swing blade groups 20 share one support member 30, which can reduce the number of support members 30, save costs, and save layout space. The number of support members 30 is one less than the number of air supply channels. For example, when the number of air supply channels is 2, the number of support members 30 is 1, and when the number of air supply channels is 3, the number of support members 30 is 2.

[0086] The number of air supply channels in the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 is more than two, the number of support members 30 is multiple, and each of the multiple support members 30 is located between two adjacent air supply channels to fix and support the multiple first swing blades 21 at the two adjacent air supply channels.

[0087] The support member 30 supports the first swing blade group 20 at two adjacent air supply channels, which can improve the structural stability of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, so that the first swing blade 21 is stably installed at the outlet 12 of the air supply channel, which is beneficial to improving the air guiding effect of the first swing blade group 20.

[0088] In some embodiments, a plurality of first mounting holes 31 are provided at the top of the support member 30, and the shaft body 22 at the end of the first swing blade 21 in each first air supply channel 111 is inserted into one of the first mounting holes 31, so that the first swing blade 21 rotates around the first mounting hole 31. A plurality of second mounting holes 32 are provided at the bottom of the support member 30, and the shaft body 22 at the end of the first swing blade 21 in each second air supply channel 112 is inserted into one of the second mounting holes 32, so that the first swing blade 21 rotates around the second mounting hole 32.

[0089] Specifically, the first air supply channel 111 is located above the second air supply channel 112 , the first air supply channel 111 and the second air supply channel 112 are arranged adjacent to each other, and the first air supply channel 111 and the second air supply channel 112 share a support member 30 .

[0090] In the first swing blade group 20 located at the outlet 12 of the first air supply channel 111, the shaft body 22 at the bottom of each first swing blade 21 is pivotally connected to the first mounting hole 31 at the top of the support portion. In the first swing blade group 20 located at the outlet 12 of the second air supply channel 112, the shaft body 22 at the top of each first swing blade 21 is pivotally connected to the second mounting hole 32 at the bottom of the support member 30.

[0091] In some embodiments, the first swing blade 21 can be set to a wave shape. When the heat exchange airflow flows along the surface of the first swing blade 21, the irregular wave shape can break up the heat exchange airflow to make the heat exchange airflow softer. In this way, when multiple first swing blades 21 guide the heat exchange airflow forward, the user's discomfort can be minimized.

[0092] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 5 The housing 10 includes a main body 13 and an air outlet frame 14. A plurality of air supply channels are defined inside the main body 13. The air outlet frame 14 is disposed at the front side of the main body 13 and has a plurality of air outlets 141, which are opposite to the outlet 12 of the air supply channel.

[0093] The housing 10 may include a main body 13, and an air supply passage is defined inside the main body 13. An air outlet frame 14 is detachably arranged in front of the main body 13. A grille-shaped air outlet 141 is provided on the air outlet frame 14, and the air outlet 141 is arranged opposite to the outlet 12 of the air supply passage, so that the heat exchange air flow is blown out from the air outlet 141.

[0094] In some specific embodiments, the air supply channel includes a first air supply channel 111 and a second air supply channel 112 , and the air outlet 141 on the air outlet frame 14 is arranged opposite to the outlets 12 of the first air supply channel 111 and the second air supply channel 112 , respectively.

[0095] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 further includes a plurality of fans 50, each fan 50 being disposed in a corresponding air supply channel for circulating air flow.

[0096] A fan 50 is correspondingly arranged in each air supply channel, and the fan 50 can promote the indoor air flow to enter the housing 10 from the heat exchange air flow inlet to exchange heat with the evaporator 60, and finally be discharged from the air outlet 141. The fan 50 blows the heat exchange air flow generated by the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 into the room evenly, so as to achieve a fast and even cooling or heating effect.

[0097] Specifically, the fan 50 in the air supply channel that is open to the front and the first lateral side at the same time is located at the air inlet of the air supply channel, and the fan 50 blows the heat exchange airflow forward and toward the first lateral side. The fan 50 in the air supply channel that is open to the front and the second lateral side at the same time is located at the air inlet of the air supply channel, and the fan 50 blows the heat exchange airflow forward and toward the second lateral side. In this way, different blowing modes of multiple air supply channels can be achieved, which effectively prevents direct blowing, is conducive to rapid and uniform mixing of indoor air, and improves the cooling or heating effect of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0098] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 also includes a second swing blade group 40, which is arranged on the inner side of multiple sets of first swing blade groups 20, and includes multiple second swing blades 41 arranged vertically, each second swing blade 41 extends horizontally to adjust the direction of the heat exchange airflow vertically.

[0099] Specifically, the second swing blade group 40 is located on the inner side of multiple sets of first swing blade groups 20, and the multiple second swing blades 41 of the second swing blade group 40 are arranged in a vertically spaced arrangement. The length direction of each second swing blade 41 is horizontally arranged, and each second swing blade 41 can rotate around a horizontal rotation axis, so that the multiple second swing blades 41 can adjust the direction of the heat exchange airflow.

[0100] The second swing blade group 40 cooperates with the first swing blade group 20 to realize multi-angle air supply of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, so that the heat exchange airflow can be evenly distributed to every corner of the room, thereby improving the air supply effect of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, avoiding the discomfort caused by direct blowing on the human body, and improving the comfort of use.

[0101] The second swing blade group 40 can further expand the air supply range of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 to ensure that sufficient cooling or heating effect is achieved indoors.

[0102] In some embodiments, the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 further includes a plurality of evaporators 60 , each evaporator 60 corresponding to an air supply channel for heat exchange.

[0103] The evaporator 60 is installed in the main body 13 and covers the air inlet of the air supply channel to exchange heat with the air sucked into the casing 10 from the heat exchange air flow inlet. The heat-exchanged air is discharged into the room through the air outlet side of the main body 13 and the air outlet 141 of the casing 10 to achieve cooling.

[0104] The evaporator 60 mainly utilizes the property that the liquid low-temperature refrigerant is easy to evaporate under low pressure. The liquid refrigerant is converted into vapor and absorbs the heat of the cooled medium, thereby achieving the purpose of refrigeration. The evaporator 60 is used to transmit cold air, reduce the temperature of the surrounding air, and achieve a refrigeration effect.

[0105] Each evaporator 60 corresponds to an air supply channel, so that the temperature of the cold air in each air supply channel can be independently controlled, which can improve the cooling effect of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 and enhance the user experience.

[0106] In some embodiments, the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 further includes a plurality of heating elements 70, each heating element 70 corresponding to an air supply channel, for increasing the indoor temperature.

[0107] The heating element 70 converts electrical energy or other energy sources into thermal energy to provide warm airflow indoors. The heating element 70 can generate heat quickly, and in combination with the fan 50 and the air supply channel, the indoor air is quickly heated up to provide a comfortable heating effect.

[0108] Each heating element 70 corresponds to an air supply channel, and the heating power and air supply mode can be adjusted according to parameters such as indoor temperature and humidity to achieve a more comfortable heating experience.

[0109] In some embodiments, each air supply channel is provided with a fan 50, an evaporator 60 and a heating element 70, so that the temperature of the heat exchange airflow in the multiple air supply channels and the air supply mode in the multiple air supply channels can be independently controlled. The temperature and air outlet mode of the heat exchange airflow in different air supply channels can be adjusted according to actual conditions to meet different air supply needs of users and enhance the user experience.

[0110] When the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100 is cooling, the temperature of the heat exchange air flow in the upper air supply channel is lower, and the temperature of the heat exchange air flow in the lower air supply channel is higher. By utilizing the principle that cold air sinks and hot air floats, the cold air flow flows downward with greater weight, and the hot air flow flows upward with greater weight. This improves the cooling or heating effect of the vertical air conditioner indoor unit 100, can achieve better circulation of indoor air, can effectively prevent direct blowing, and improves user comfort.
