[0055] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0056] The air conditioner indoor unit 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0057] like Figure 1-Figure 7 , Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 according to the embodiment of the utility model includes a panel bracket 1 and an air outlet frame 2.

[0058] The lower end of the panel bracket 1 has a first air outlet 11, and the panel bracket 1 is connected to the air outlet frame 2 and defines an air outlet channel 3 connected to the first air outlet 11. Thus, the airflow in the air outlet channel 3 is blown into the room from the first air outlet 11 to adjust the indoor temperature of the room where the air conditioner indoor unit 100 is located.

[0059] A first water guide component 15 is provided on one side of the panel bracket 1 facing the air outlet channel 3. The first water guide component 15 is located above the first air outlet 11 and is used to guide the condensed water on the panel bracket 1 to the air outlet frame 2. It can be understood that, when the air conditioner indoor unit 100 is in operation, the condensed water generated in the air outlet channel 3 will flow downward along the panel bracket 1. The first water guide component 15 is used to guide the condensed water on the panel bracket 1 to the air outlet frame 2, so that the first water guide component 15 receives the condensed water on the panel bracket 1 and guides the flow path of the condensed water, thereby facilitating the discharge of the condensed water. At the same time, the first water guide component 15 is located above the first air outlet 11, so that the flow path of the condensed water on the panel bracket 1 is located above the first air outlet 11, thereby effectively preventing the condensed water from leaking or blowing out from the first air outlet 11, thereby improving the reliability and practicality of the air conditioner indoor unit 100 and improving the user experience.

[0060] In some embodiments, Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the upper end of the panel bracket 1 has a second air outlet 12, and the second air outlet 12 is connected to the air outlet channel 3. Therefore, the air outlet from the bottom of the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 is realized through the first air outlet 11, and the air outlet from the top of the air-conditioning room is realized through the second air outlet 12, so as to meet the different air outlet requirements of the air-conditioning indoor unit 100, which is conducive to improving the user experience. Further, the air conditioner also includes a top cover 6, which is connected to the panel bracket 1, and a through hole is provided on the top cover 6, which is opposite to the second air outlet 12, so that the airflow flowing out of the second air outlet 12 can flow out through the through hole.

[0061] In some embodiments, Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 includes a top cover 6, a panel 7, a rear shell 8 and a chassis 9. The top cover 6, the panel 7, the rear shell 8, the chassis 9 and the panel bracket 1 are interconnected, which can protect the internal structure of the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 (such as the air outlet frame 2, etc.) to avoid damage caused by exposure of the internal structure, which is beneficial to improving the service life of the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 and has a better appearance effect.

[0062] According to the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 of the embodiment of the utility model, the lower end of the panel bracket 1 has a first air outlet 11, the panel bracket 1 and the air outlet frame 2 are connected and define an air outlet channel 3 connected to the first air outlet 11, and a first water guiding component 15 is provided on the side of the panel bracket 1 facing the air outlet channel 3. The first water guiding component 15 is located above the first air outlet 11 and is used to guide condensed water on the panel bracket 1 to the air outlet frame 2, so that the first water guiding component 15 receives the condensed water on the panel bracket 1 and guides the flow path of the condensed water to be located above the first air outlet 11, thereby effectively preventing condensed water from leaking or blowing out from the first air outlet 11, thereby improving the reliability and practicality of the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 and improving the user experience.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4-Figure 7 and Fig.11 As shown, the first water guide assembly 15 includes an oblique rib 151. The oblique rib 151 is disposed on the surface of the panel bracket 1 facing the air outlet channel 3. The oblique rib 151 protrudes toward the air outlet channel 3 and extends along the width direction of the panel bracket 1 (eg, Figure 4 and Figure 6 The oblique ribs 151 extend in the first direction shown in FIG. 1 , and the oblique ribs 151 are inclined downward in the direction from one end to the other end in the width direction of the panel bracket 1. It should be noted that the width direction of the panel bracket 1 is perpendicular to the up-down direction.

[0064] Therefore, when the condensed water generated in the air outlet channel 3 flows downward along the panel bracket 1, the oblique ribs 151 protrude toward the air outlet channel 3, effectively preventing the condensed water from crossing the oblique ribs 151 and continuing to flow downward, thereby ensuring the collection and guiding effect of the oblique ribs 151 on the condensed water. At the same time, the oblique ribs 151 extend along the width direction of the panel bracket 1, thereby further improving the collection ability of the oblique ribs 151 on the condensed water on the panel bracket 1. In addition, the oblique ribs 151 are tilted downward from one end to the other end in the width direction of the panel bracket 1, thereby further improving the guiding effect of the oblique ribs 151 on the condensed water, thereby ensuring the effect of the first water guiding component 15 in guiding the condensed water on the panel bracket 1 to the air outlet frame 2, thereby improving reliability.

[0065] In some embodiments of the utility model, the height of the oblique rib 151 protruding toward the air outlet channel 3 is 1mm-10mm. It is understandable that the height of the oblique rib 151 protruding toward the air outlet channel 3 is 1mm, 2mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 9mm or 10mm. Therefore, by limiting the size of the height of the oblique rib 151 protruding toward the air outlet channel 3, while preventing condensed water from crossing the oblique rib 151 and continuing to flow downward, the oblique rib 151 is reduced to block the flow of air in the air duct, thereby improving the reliability of the air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0066] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the panel bracket 1 also includes a third air outlet 13 and a fourth air outlet 14 located at both ends of the panel bracket 1 in the width direction, and the third air outlet 13 and the fourth air outlet 14 both extend in the up-down direction, and the air-conditioning indoor unit 100 also includes a first louver assembly and a second louver assembly, and the first louver assembly and the second louver assembly are arranged in the air duct, the first louver assembly and the third air outlet 13 are opposite and extend in the up-down direction, the second louver assembly and the fourth air outlet 14 are opposite and extend in the up-down direction, and the first louver assembly and the second louver assembly are both connected to the panel bracket 1.

[0067] Thus, the third air outlet 13 and the fourth air outlet 14 are used to realize air outlet on both sides of the width direction of the air conditioner indoor unit 100, so as to meet the different air outlet requirements of the air conditioner indoor unit 100, which is conducive to improving the user experience. At the same time, the setting of the louver can play a role in guiding the wind, and adjust the direction of the air flow flowing out from the third air outlet 13 and the fourth air outlet 14, so that the air flow direction meets the user's usage requirements. In addition, the height of the oblique rib 151 protruding toward the air outlet channel 3 is set to 1mm-10mm, which prevents condensed water from crossing the oblique rib 151 and continuing to flow downward, reduces the oblique rib 151 blocking the flow of air in the air duct, and avoids the oblique rib 151 from interfering with the first louver assembly and the second louver assembly, thereby improving the reliability of the air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0068] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the upper surface of the oblique rib 151 is perpendicular to the surface of the panel bracket 1 facing the air duct. Therefore, such an arrangement further prevents condensed water from crossing the oblique rib 151 and continuing to flow downward, thereby improving the collection and guidance effect of the oblique rib 151 on condensed water.

[0069] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4-Figure 7 As shown, the first water guide component 15 also includes an inclined groove 152, which is located above the inclined rib 151 and is recessed in a direction away from the air outlet channel 3. The inclined groove 152 has the same inclination direction as the inclined rib 151, and the lower side wall of the inclined groove 152 is flush with the upper wall of the inclined rib 151.

[0070] It is understandable that, in the process of the condensed water on the panel bracket 1 flowing downward, the condensed water first flows downward into the inclined groove 152, and then flows onto the inclined rib 151, further preventing the condensed water from crossing the inclined rib 151 and continuing to flow downward, thereby improving the collection capacity of the inclined rib 151 for the condensed water, and reducing the dripping or splashing of the condensed water during the flow, thereby improving reliability. At the same time, by having the inclined groove 152 and the inclined rib 151 in the same inclination direction, the guiding effect of the first water guide component 15 on the condensed water is ensured, and the flow path of the condensed water is optimized. In addition, by having the lower side wall of the inclined groove 152 and the upper wall of the inclined rib 151 flush, the condensed water can smoothly transition during the flow, reducing the resistance and turbulence of the water flow, further ensuring that the condensed water can flow in an orderly manner along the predetermined path, and effectively avoiding the dripping or splashing during the flow.

[0071] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, in the direction from the bottom wall of the chute 152 to the open mouth, the upper side wall of the chute 152 is inclined in the direction away from the lower side wall of the chute 152. Thus, through such an arrangement, the condensed water is effectively guided to flow along the upper side wall of the chute 152 into the chute 152, so that the condensed water can smoothly enter the chute 152 and smoothly transition during the flow process, reducing the resistance and turbulence of the water flow, and further optimizing the flow path of the condensed water.

[0072] In some embodiments of the present invention, along the thickness direction of the panel bracket 1 (such as Figure 4 In the second direction shown in the figure, the distance between the free end of the oblique rib 151 and the bottom wall of the oblique groove 152 is 1mm-10mm. It can be understood that the distance between the free end of the oblique rib 151 and the bottom wall of the oblique groove 152 is 1mm, 2mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 9mm or 10mm. Therefore, by limiting the size of the distance between the free end of the oblique rib 151 and the bottom wall of the oblique groove 152, while preventing condensed water from continuing to flow downward across the oblique rib 151, the influence of the oblique rib 151 and the oblique groove 152 on the air flow in the air duct is reduced, thereby improving the reliability of the air conditioning indoor unit 100. At the same time, the motion interference between the oblique rib 151 and the first louver assembly and the second louver assembly is effectively avoided, thereby improving the reliability of the air conditioning indoor unit 100. It should be noted that the width direction of the panel bracket 1 and the thickness direction of the panel bracket 1 are perpendicular to the up and down directions.

[0073] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Fig.11As shown, the first water guide component 15 further includes a water nozzle 153. The water nozzle 153 is connected to the lower end of the oblique rib 151 in the length direction, and a water receiving groove 1531 is formed on the upper surface of the water nozzle 153. The side of the water receiving groove 1531 facing the air outlet frame 2 has a water opening 1532. The bottom wall of the water receiving groove 1531 is connected to the oblique rib 151, and is used to guide the condensed water above the oblique rib 151 to the water opening 1532.

[0074] Thus, the condensed water generated in the air outlet channel 3 will flow downward along the panel bracket 1 to the oblique rib 151, and flow along the length direction of the oblique rib 151 to the water receiving groove 1531 of the water nozzle 153, so that the condensed water is collected by the water nozzle 153, and the bottom wall of the water receiving groove 1531 is connected to the oblique rib 151, so as to ensure that the condensed water can smoothly flow into the water receiving groove 1531. At the same time, since the broken water opening 1532 is located on the side of the water receiving groove 1531 facing the air outlet frame 2, the condensed water flowing into the water receiving groove 1531 flows to the broken water opening 1532, which facilitates the condensed water to flow to the air outlet frame 2, further optimizes the flow path of the condensed water, facilitates the outflow of the condensed water, and improves the reliability of the air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0075] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, in the direction from the panel bracket 1 to the air outlet frame 2, the bottom wall of the water receiving groove 1531 is inclined downward. Thus, the flow path of the condensed water is further optimized through such a setting, so that the condensed water in the water receiving groove 1531 can flow to the water opening 1532 more smoothly, effectively avoiding the overflow or accumulation of condensed water in the water receiving groove 1531, and ensuring that the condensed water can be discharged smoothly.

[0076] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, in the direction from the panel bracket 1 to the air outlet frame 2, the bottom wall of the water break 1532 is tilted downward and the tilt angle is greater than the tilt angle of the water receiving groove 1531. Therefore, through such a setting, the condensed water flows faster when passing through the water break 1532, ensuring that the condensed water in the water receiving groove 1531 can be discharged from the water break 1532 to the air outlet frame 2, thereby improving the drainage efficiency.

[0077] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, in the direction from the panel bracket 1 to the air outlet frame 2, the width of the water receiving groove 1531 gradually decreases. Therefore, such a setting plays a certain guiding role on the condensed water in the water receiving groove 1531, which facilitates the condensed water in the water receiving groove 1531 to flow to the air outlet frame 2, and further optimizes the flow path of the condensed water. At the same time, the gradual reduction of the width of the water receiving groove 1531 helps to increase the flow speed of the condensed water, and further reduces the possibility of overflow or accumulation of condensed water in the water receiving groove 1531. In addition, such a setting reduces the space occupied by the water receiving groove 1531 in the air outlet channel 3, reduces the obstruction to the air flow, and improves the reliability of the air conditioner indoor unit 100.

[0078] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4-Figure 9 , Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, the air outlet frame 2 is provided with a second water guide component 21, and the second water guide component 21 includes a water guide plate 211. Among them, one end of the water guide plate 211 is connected to the first water guide component 15 and is located below the first water guide component 15, and is used to receive condensed water flowing out of the first water guide component 15. Therefore, the condensed water generated in the air outlet channel 3 is guided to the water guide plate 211 by the first water guide component 15, and the condensed water is collected by the water guide plate 211, which is convenient for the condensed water to be discharged. At the same time, the water guide plate 211 is located below the first water guide component 15, which facilitates the condensed water to flow into the water guide plate 211, and optimizes the flow path of the condensed water.

[0079] In some embodiments of the utility model, the distance between the first water guide component 15 and the water guide plate 211 in the interconnected position is 1mm-10mm in the vertical direction. It is understandable that when the distance between the first water guide component 15 and the water guide plate 211 in the interconnected position is too large, condensed water will drip or splash when it flows from the first water guide component 15 into the guide plate. When the distance between the first water guide component 15 and the water guide plate 211 in the interconnected position is too small, the assembly space between the first water guide component 15 and the second water guide component 21 is too small, and the assembly difficulty is relatively large. Therefore, by limiting the size of the distance between the first water guide component 15 and the water guide plate 211 in the interconnected position, while ensuring that condensed water flows smoothly from the first water guide component 15 into the guide plate, it is ensured that the first water guide component 15 and the second water guide component 21 have assembly space, thereby reducing the assembly difficulty and improving efficiency.

[0080] It should be noted that the distance between the first water guide component 15 and the water guide plate 211 at the mutually connected position is 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm or 10 mm.

[0081] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 , Fig. 9 and Fig.11 As shown, the water guide plate 211 is tilted downward in the direction from the panel bracket 1 to the air outlet frame 2. Thus, the flow path of the condensed water is optimized through such a setting, and the overflow or accumulation of condensed water in the water guide plate 211 is effectively avoided, so that the condensed water can be discharged smoothly.

[0082] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 9-14 As shown, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 further includes a volute 4. The volute 4 is located on the side of the air outlet frame 2 away from the panel bracket 1, and the water guide plate 211 is spliced ​​with the volute 4 on the side close to the volute 4. The edge area of ​​the water guide plate 211 other than the splicing with the volute 4 and the air outlet frame 2 has an upward flange 2111. Thus, through such a setting, the flow path of the condensed water is further optimized, and the condensed water in the guide plate can only flow to the volute 4, so as to avoid the condensed water from leaking from other places, facilitate the smooth discharge of the subsequent condensed water, and improve reliability.

[0083] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 10-Figure 16 As shown, a water hole 2112 is provided at one end where the water guide plate 211 is spliced ​​with the volute 4, and the volute 4 has a water guide groove 41, which extends along the width direction of the panel bracket 1. In the up-down direction, the water guide groove 41 is located below the water hole 2112 and is opposite to and connected to the water hole 2112. As a result, the condensed water in the water guide plate 211 flows from the water hole 2112 into the water guide groove 41, which facilitates the smooth discharge of the subsequent condensed water. At the same time, the water guide groove 41 is located below the water hole 2112 and is opposite to and connected to the water hole 2112, which ensures that the condensed water in the water guide plate 211 can smoothly flow into the water guide groove 41, thereby improving reliability.

[0084] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 10-Figure 16 As shown, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 also includes an evaporator bracket 5. In the width direction of the panel bracket 1, the evaporator bracket 5 is located on one side of the volute 4, and the evaporator bracket 5 has a water receiving pan 51. The end of the water guide groove 41 away from the water hole 2112 is connected to the water guide groove 511 of the water receiving pan 51. In the direction from the volute 4 to the evaporator bracket 5, the water guide groove 41 is inclined downward. As a result, the condensed water in the water guide groove 41 flows into the water guide groove 511 of the water receiving pan 51 along the width direction of the panel bracket 1, and is discharged through the water guide groove 511, so as to realize the discharge of the condensed water in the ventilation air outlet channel. At the same time, the water guide groove 41 is inclined downward, which plays a certain guiding role on the condensed water in the water guide groove 41, so that the condensed water in the water guide groove 41 flows into the water guide groove 511, and the water guide groove 511 may overflow or accumulate water in the water receiving groove 1531.

[0085] In some embodiments, the bottom wall of the water receiving tray 51 has a drain port, which is connected to the water diversion groove 511, and the evaporator support 5 also has a drain pipe, at least part of which extends into the drain port. Thus, the condensed water in the water diversion groove 511 is discharged through the drain pipe.
