[0027] An embodiment of the present application provides an air conditioner, which includes an indoor unit of the air conditioner described in any embodiment of the present application.

[0028] The air conditioner includes a kitchen air conditioner for the kitchen, a bathroom air conditioner for the bathroom, and an air conditioner for other scenarios except the kitchen and the bathroom.

[0029] The air conditioner may be a split air conditioner, that is, in addition to the indoor unit of the air conditioner, the air conditioner also has an outdoor unit of the air conditioner arranged outdoors. The air conditioner may also be an integrated air conditioner, that is, the air conditioner only has an indoor unit of the air conditioner. Components such as a compressor and an outdoor heat exchanger originally arranged in the outdoor unit of the air conditioner are assembled together with the indoor unit of the air conditioner to form an integral structure.

[0030] Exemplarily, Figure 1 The indoor unit of the air conditioner shown is the indoor unit of the kitchen air conditioner.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 The indoor unit of the air conditioner in the embodiment of the present application includes a housing 10 and a heat exchange assembly 20.

[0032] The housing 10 is provided with an air inlet chamber 10a, an air outlet chamber 10b, and a communication channel 10c. The air inlet chamber 10a has an indoor air inlet 10a1, the air outlet chamber 10b has an indoor air outlet 10b1, and the communication channel 10c is respectively communicated with the air inlet chamber 10a and the air outlet chamber 10b, so as to form an air flow path passing through the air inlet chamber 10a, the communication channel 10c, and the air outlet chamber 10b between the indoor air inlet 10a1 and the indoor air outlet 10b1. That is to say, the indoor air flow can enter the housing 10 from the indoor air inlet 10a1, and then sequentially pass through the air inlet chamber 10a, the communication channel 10c, and the air outlet chamber 10b along the air flow path, and then flow into the room through the indoor air outlet 10b1.

[0033] The heat exchange assembly 20 includes a heat equalizing member 21 and a heat exchanger 22. Both the heat equalizing member 21 and the heat exchanger 22 are located on the air flow path. That is to say, the air flow flowing along the air flow path will pass through the heat equalizing member 21 and the heat exchanger 22.

[0034] The heat exchanger 22 is a basic component for the air conditioner to achieve air conditioning. The heat exchanger 22 is used in cooperation with the compressor of the air conditioner. Specifically, the compressor drives the refrigerant to flow through the heat exchanger 22 along the pipeline, so that the refrigerant exchanges heat with the air flow flowing through the heat exchanger 22 at the heat exchanger 22, thereby realizing heat exchange.

[0035] The heat exchanger 22 is arranged in the air outlet chamber 10b.

[0036] The soaking component 21 is a widely used heat dissipation component, mainly composed of a housing, a wick and a vapor chamber arranged in the housing, etc. The interior of the housing contains a working fluid for phase change heat transfer. The liquid working fluid absorbs the heat of the heat source at the evaporation end of the soaking component 21 and vaporizes into steam. The steam enters the vapor chamber and flows to the condensation end of the soaking component 21 under the action of pressure difference. The steam dissipates heat and condenses at the condensation end to form a liquid working fluid. The liquid working fluid returns to the evaporation end under the capillary action of the wick, absorbs heat again and vaporizes into steam again, and works in such a cycle to achieve heat exchange. The entire heat exchange process of the soaking component 21 does not require a power source, nor does it require a driving component such as a compressor to drive the movement of the working fluid.

[0037] Exemplarily, the soaking component 21 can be a vapor chamber, a heat pipe, etc.

[0038] The soaking component 21 is arranged in at least one of the air inlet chamber 10a, the air outlet chamber 10b and the communication channel 10c. That is to say, the soaking component 21 can be arranged in any one of the air inlet chamber 10a, the air outlet chamber 10b and the communication channel 10c, or can be arranged in any two of the air inlet chamber 10a, the air outlet chamber 10b and the communication channel 10c, or the soaking component 21 can be arranged in the air inlet chamber 10a, the air outlet chamber 10b and the communication channel 10c.

[0039] In addition, when the soaking component 21 is arranged in at least two of the air inlet chamber 10a, the air outlet chamber 10b and the communication channel 10c, the soaking component 21 can be respectively arranged in the corresponding chamber and / or channel, or the same soaking component 21 can be respectively arranged in the corresponding chamber and / or channel.

[0040] Exemplarily, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , the housing 10 includes an outer shell 11 and a partition 12 having an installation opening 12a. The partition 12 is arranged in the outer shell 11 to partition an air inlet chamber 10a and an air outlet chamber 10b in the outer shell 11. The soaking component 21 passes through the installation opening 12a so that a part of the soaking component 21 is located in the air inlet chamber 10a and another part of the soaking component 21 is located in the air outlet chamber 10b. That is to say, a part of the same soaking component 21 is located in the air inlet chamber 10a and another part is located in the air outlet chamber 10b.

[0041] In some other embodiments, the soaking components 21 can also be respectively arranged in the air inlet chamber 10a and the air outlet chamber 10b.

[0042] During the refrigeration operation of the air conditioner indoor unit, both the heat equalizing member 21 and the heat exchanger 22 can exchange heat with the air flowing along the air flow path, so that the air flowing into the housing 10 from the indoor air inlet 10a1 is cooled and then flows out from the indoor air outlet 10b1. Since the heat equalizing member 21 can dissipate heat and cool the air flowing along the air flow path, the working load of the heat exchanger 22 can be effectively reduced, and the heat exchanger 22 can be preferably prevented from frequently starting during the refrigeration operation. And since the heat exchange process of the heat equalizing member 21 does not require a power source, nor does it require a driving component such as a compressor to drive the working medium to move, the cooperation between the heat equalizing member 21 and the heat exchanger 22 can achieve a better energy-saving effect.

[0043] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the housing 10 is provided with an outdoor air inlet passage 10d having an outdoor air inlet 10d1 and an outdoor air outlet passage 10e having an outdoor air outlet 10e1. The outdoor air inlet passage 10d communicates with the air outlet chamber 10b, so as to form an air inlet path passing through the outdoor air inlet passage 10d and the air outlet chamber 10b between the outdoor air inlet 10d1 and the indoor air outlet 10b1. The outdoor air outlet passage 10e communicates with the air inlet chamber 10a, so as to form an air outlet path passing through the air inlet chamber 10a and the outdoor air outlet passage 10e between the indoor air inlet 10a1 and the outdoor air outlet 10e1.

[0044] Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the communication passage 10c can communicate with the outdoor air inlet passage 10d and the outdoor air outlet passage 10e respectively, so that the air flow path passes through the outdoor air outlet passage 10e and the outdoor air inlet passage 10d. Thus, the communication passage 10c can be conveniently arranged.

[0045] In other embodiments, the communication passage 10c may not communicate with the outdoor air inlet passage 10d and the outdoor air outlet passage 10e, which is equivalent to that the air flowing along the air flow path does not pass through the outdoor air outlet passage 10e and the outdoor air inlet passage 10d.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the air conditioner indoor unit further includes a valve group 30 having a first air valve 31 and a second air valve 32. The first air valve 31 is arranged at the outdoor air inlet passage 10d. Specifically, the first air valve 31 can be arranged inside the outdoor air inlet passage 10d or at the end of any one end of the outdoor air inlet passage 10d to conduct or cut off the outdoor air inlet passage 10d. The second air valve 32 is arranged at the outdoor air outlet passage 10e. Specifically, the second air valve 32 can be arranged inside the outdoor air outlet passage 10e or at the end of any one end of the outdoor air inlet passage 10d to conduct or cut off the outdoor air outlet passage 10e.

[0047] The outdoor air intake passage 10d and the outdoor air outlet passage 10e are used to realize the fresh air function.

[0048] Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the air conditioner can be set to a first working mode and a second working mode.

[0049] When the air conditioner is in the first working mode, the first air valve 31 cuts off the outdoor air intake passage 10d, and the second air valve 32 cuts off the outdoor air outlet passage 10e. The air flow circulates along the air flow path to realize refrigeration. That is to say, in the first working mode, the air conditioner turns on the refrigeration function without turning on the fresh air function.

[0050] When the air conditioner is in the second working mode, the first air valve 31 conducts the outdoor air intake passage 10d, and the second air valve 32 conducts the outdoor air outlet passage 10e. The outdoor air flow enters the outdoor air intake passage 10d from the outdoor air inlet 10d1 and sequentially passes through the outdoor air intake passage 10d and the air outlet cavity 10b along the air intake path, and finally flows into the room from the indoor air outlet 10b1. At the same time, the indoor air flow enters the air intake cavity 10a from the indoor air inlet 10a1 and sequentially passes through the air intake cavity 10a and the outdoor air outlet passage 10e along the air outlet path, and finally flows into the external environment from the outdoor air outlet 10e1, thereby realizing the fresh air function. During this period, the outdoor air flow passes through at least the heat exchanger 22 in the heat exchange assembly 20. If the compressor is turned on in the second working mode, the outdoor air flow can exchange heat at the heat exchanger 22, which is equivalent to the air conditioner turning on both the refrigeration function and the fresh air function at the same time. If the compressor is not turned on, the outdoor air flow only passes through the heat exchanger 22 without exchanging heat at the heat exchanger 22, which is equivalent to the air conditioner only turning on the fresh air function without turning on the refrigeration function.

[0051] For a kitchen air conditioner, the fresh air function can discharge indoor pollutants (such as oil mist, dust, etc.) out of the room with the air flow, so that the room can be kept as clean as possible.

[0052] Exemplarily, an oil mist sensor can be set in the air conditioner indoor unit. The oil mist sensor is set in the air intake cavity 10a. After the air flow enters the air intake cavity 10a from the indoor air inlet 10a1, the oil mist sensor detects the air flow in real time. When the oil mist concentration of the air flow is high, the air conditioner turns on the second working mode to discharge the pollutants out of the room. When the oil mist concentration of the air flow is low, the second working mode can be turned off to reduce energy consumption.

[0053] For the embodiment in which the heat equalizing member 21 is provided in the air outlet cavity 10b, exemplarily, please refer to Figure 5, the soaking member 21 can be located between the heat exchanger 22 and the outdoor air inlet passage 10d. More preferably, the installation position of the soaking member 21 can be close to the outdoor air inlet passage 10d. That is to say, the air flow from the outside first passes through the soaking member 21 in the air outlet cavity 10b and then passes through the heat exchanger 22.

[0054] If the compressor is turned on in the second working mode, the outdoor air flow actually exchanges heat at the soaking member 21 in the air outlet cavity 10b first to initially reduce the temperature of the air flow, and then exchanges heat at the heat exchanger 22 to further reduce the temperature of the air flow. Since the outdoor air flow is initially cooled at the soaking member 21, the working load of the heat exchanger 22 can also be reduced, so as to achieve a better energy-saving effect.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the air valve group 30 can also be provided with a third air valve 33. The third air valve 33 is arranged at the communication channel 10c. Specifically, the third air valve 33 can be arranged inside the communication channel 10c or at the end of any one end of the communication channel 10c to conduct or cut off the communication channel 10c. When the air conditioner is in the first working mode, the third air valve 33 can make the air flow flow along the air flow path by conducting the communication channel 10c. When the air conditioner is in the second working mode, the third air valve 33 can better prevent the air flow flowing along the air inlet path from entering the air inlet and outlet cavity 10a through the communication channel 10c, or the air flow flowing along the air outlet path from entering the air outlet cavity 10b through the communication channel 10c by cutting off the communication channel 10c.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the indoor unit of the air conditioner includes a first fan 40 arranged in the air outlet cavity 10b and a second fan 50 arranged in the air inlet cavity 10a.

[0057] When the air conditioner is in the first working mode, at least one of the first fan 40 and the second fan 50 can be started to drive the air flow to flow along the air flow path.

[0058] When the air conditioner is in the second working mode, the first fan 40 drives the air flow to flow along the air inlet path so that the air flow flows to the indoor air outlet 10b1, and the second fan 50 drives the air flow to flow along the air outlet path so that the air flow flows to the outdoor air outlet passage 10e.

[0059] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5, the first blower 40 and the heat exchanger 22 may be located downstream of the soaking member 21 along the air flow path, and the first blower 40 is located on the side of the heat exchanger 22 away from the indoor air outlet 10b1. That is to say, the heat exchanger 22 is arranged close to the indoor air outlet 10b1, so that the air can flow into the room from the indoor air outlet 10b1 in time after exchanging heat with the heat exchanger 22.

[0060] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the second blower 50 may be located upstream of the soaking member 21 along the air flow path. That is to say, the air flows out of the second blower 50 and then exchanges heat with the soaking member 21, so that the distance of the air flowing from the soaking member 21 to the indoor air outlet 10b1 can be shortened in the first working mode, thereby improving the heat exchange effect of the soaking member 21.

[0061] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the air conditioner indoor unit includes a filter 60 arranged in the air inlet cavity 10a. The filter 60 is located upstream of the soaking member 21 along the air flow path and close to the indoor air inlet 10a1. The filter 60 can be used to filter and remove pollutants in the air flow. When the air conditioner is in the first working mode, the air flow flows along the air flow path and is repeatedly filtered and cleaned by the filter 60, effectively reducing the pollutant concentration in the room. When the air conditioner is in the second working mode, the air flow flowing along the air outlet path is filtered and cleaned by the filter 60, which can also effectively reduce the pollution emission of the air conditioner indoor unit.
