Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described can be combined in a suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.

[0041] The following describes the air conditioner indoor unit 100 of the embodiment of the present utility model with reference to the drawings.

[0042] As Figures 1 - 8 shown, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 of the embodiment of the present utility model includes a housing 1, a cover plate 2, and a pushing component 3.

[0043] The housing 1 defines a receiving groove 10. The receiving groove 10 includes an open air inlet 11. The receiving groove 10 is used to receive an air conditioner component, and the receiving groove 10 communicates with the outside through the open air inlet 11.

[0044] The cover plate 2 is movably connected to the housing 1 between a first position and a second position. The cover plate 2 in the first position is closer to the inner side of the receiving groove than the cover plate 2 in the second position, and the cover plate 2 in the first position covers the air inlet 11.

[0045] In other words, the second position is located outside the receiving groove 10 and is farther from the receiving groove 10 relative to the first position. At least a part of the cover plate 2 located at the second position is outside the receiving groove 10, that is, the gap size between the cover plate 2 located at the second position and the air inlet 11 is larger, so that it is more convenient for the user to open the cover plate 2.

[0046] It should be noted that the second position of the cover plate 2 is not the limit position where the cover plate 2 can move in the direction away from the receiving groove. That is to say, the cover plate 2 can be further opened in the direction away from the receiving groove so that the air inlet 11 is completely open.

[0047] In some alternative embodiments, the cover plate 2 is pivotally connected to the housing 1.

[0048] The pushing component 3 includes a dial 31 and a traction member 32. The dial 31 is movably arranged in the receiving groove 10. One end of the traction member 32 is connected to the dial 31, and the other end of the traction member 32 is located outside the housing 1. The traction member 32 is used to pull at least a part of the dial 31 in the direction close to the cover plate 2, so that at least a part of the dial 31 pushes the cover plate 2 to move from the first position to the second position. That is to say, when the dial 31 moves in the direction close to the cover plate 2, the dial 31 can contact the cover plate 2 and push the cover plate 2 outward by a certain distance, so that the cover plate 2 moves to the second position, which is convenient for opening the cover plate 2.

[0049] When it is necessary to open the cover plate 2, pull the part of the traction member 32 located outside the housing 1, so that the traction member 32 drives at least a part of the dial 31 to move in the direction close to the cover plate 2. When at least this part of the dial 31 moves in the direction close to the cover plate 2, at least this part of the dial 31 first contacts the cover plate 2 and then pushes the cover plate 2 to move from the first position to the second position, which is convenient for the user to disassemble.

[0050] Compared with the related art, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 of the embodiment of the present utility model can use the dial 31 to push the cover plate 2 outward from the first position to the second position, that is to say, the cover plate 2 is opened outward by a certain distance so that the user can open the cover plate 2. Therefore, the problem that it is difficult to open the cover plate 2 when the air conditioner indoor unit 100 is powered off is solved.

[0051] To make the present application easier to understand, taking the direction close to or away from the cover plate 2 as the same as the front-back direction and taking the height direction of the air conditioner indoor unit 100 as the same as the up-down direction as an example, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 of the embodiment of the present utility model is further described.

[0052] As Figures 1 - 7 shown, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 of the embodiment of the present utility model includes a housing 1, a cover plate 2, a heat exchanger 5, a blower fan 4 and a pushing component 3.

[0053] Both the heat exchanger 5 and the air supply fan 4 are disposed in the receiving groove 10. The air supply fan 4 is used to promote the formation of an air flow that enters the receiving groove 10 and passes through the heat exchanger 5. The heat exchanger 5 is used to exchange heat with the air flow, and the heat-exchanged air flow is discharged into the indoor area.

[0054] In some embodiments, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 is an embedded air conditioner indoor unit 100, configured to be embedded and installed in the installation groove for accommodating the air conditioner indoor unit 100. Among them, the installation groove can be formed in a furniture cabinet; or, the installation groove can be formed on the wall of the indoor area, that is, the air conditioner indoor unit 100 is embedded in the cabinet or the indoor wall.

[0055] The embedded air conditioner indoor unit 100 is embedded in the cabinet or the indoor wall, which can hide the air conditioner indoor unit 100 in appearance, make the home layout more beautiful, and thus improve the user experience.

[0056] In some embodiments, as Figures 1 - 4 shown, the flap 31 is rotatably disposed in the receiving groove 10 so that the free end 311 of the flap 31 can move in a direction approaching or departing from the cover plate 2. The free end 311 of the flap 31 can abut against the inner wall surface of the cover plate 2, and the free end 311 is connected to one end of the traction member 32.

[0057] When it is necessary to open the cover plate 2, for example Figure 2 shown, the cover plate 2 is covered on the air inlet 11, that is, the cover plate 2 is in the first position, and the free end 311 of the flap 31 moves forward and contacts the cover plate 2. For example Figure 3 shown, the free end 311 of the flap 31 continues to move forward, thereby driving the cover plate 2 to move forward until the cover plate 2 moves to the second position.

[0058] By rotatably connecting the flap 31 in the receiving groove 10, it is not only convenient to push the cover plate 2 outwards through the flap 31, but also the structure is simple and easy to manufacture.

[0059] The housing 1 is provided with an air outlet 12, and the air outlet 12 is spaced from the air inlet 11. The housing 1 has a through hole 13, one end of the through hole 13 penetrates the inner wall surface of the air inlet 11, and the other end of the through hole 13 penetrates the inner wall surface of the air outlet 12. The traction member 32 is movably disposed through the through hole 13.

[0060] In other words, one end of the traction member 32 passes through the air outlet 12, so that this end of the traction member 32 can be located outside the housing 1, which is convenient for users to use and improves the practicability.

[0061] Specifically, the air inlet 11 and the air outlet 12 are spaced apart in the up-and-down direction, the air outlet 12 is located below the air inlet 11, the extending direction of the through hole 13 is consistent with the up-and-down direction, and the rotation axis of the rotating end 312 of the flap 31 is perpendicular to the up-and-down direction.

[0062] One end of the traction member 32 is rotatably connected to the free end 311 of the flap 31, and this end of the traction member 32 is perpendicular to the up-and-down direction. There is a first gap between a part of the traction member 32 located in the through hole 13 and the inner wall surface of the through hole 13.

[0063] In other words, one end of the traction member 32 is rotatably connected to the free end 311 of the flap 31. During the up-and-down movement of the traction member 32, the traction member 32 will move a certain distance in the front-rear direction following the free end 311 of the flap 31. A certain distance is spaced between a part of the traction member 32 located in the through hole 13 and the inner wall surface of the through hole 13, which can prevent the through hole 13 from restricting the movement of the traction member 32.

[0064] When it is necessary to open the cover plate 2, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, pull the lower end of the traction member 32 downward to make the traction member 32 drive the free end 311 of the flap 31 to move forward and downward, make the free end 311 of the flap 31 contact the cover plate 2 and then drive the cover plate 2 to move forward until the cover plate 2 moves to the second position.

[0065] Optionally, the traction member 32 is a flexible rope or a flexible belt. Thereby, the structure in the receiving groove 10 is prevented from restricting the traction member 32, thereby further improving the practicability.

[0066] Optionally, the traction member 32 can also be a rigid plate body or a rod body.

[0067] In some embodiments, as Figure 6 shown, the pushing component 3 further includes a roller 33. The roller 33 is rotatably connected to the free end 311 of the flap 31, and the roller 33 can abut against the cover plate 2.

[0068] In other words, when the free end 311 of the flap 31 pushes the cover plate 2 to move forward, relative movement will occur between the free end 311 of the flap 31 and the cover plate 2 in the circumferential direction of the rotating end 312 of the flap 31. By providing the roller 33 on the free end 311, the sliding friction between the free end 311 and the cover plate 2 is converted into rolling friction, so it is more labor-saving and the practicability is improved.

[0069] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the end face of the free end 311 of the paddle 31 is an arc surface. When the free end 311 of the paddle 31 pushes the cover plate 2 forward, relative movement will occur between the free end 311 of the paddle 31 and the cover plate 2 in the circumferential direction of the rotation end 312 of the paddle 31. By configuring the free end 311 of the paddle 31 into a smooth arc surface, the contact area between the free end 311 and the cover body is reduced, thereby reducing the frictional force, so it is more labor-saving, and the structure is simple, reducing the manufacturing cost.

[0070] In some embodiments, as Figure 5 shown, a second gap 20 is formed between the cover plate 2 and the receiving groove 10. The paddle 31 is rotatably connected to the inner wall surface of the receiving groove 10 so that the free end 311 of the paddle 31 can move in a direction close to or away from the cover plate 2. The paddle 31 corresponds to the gap, and the free end 311 of the paddle 31 can abut against the inner wall surface of the cover plate 2. One end of the traction member 32 is connected to the free end 311 of the paddle 31, and the other end of the traction member 32 passes out of the housing 1 through the second gap 20.

[0071] In other words, one end of the traction member 32 passes out through the gap between the air inlet 11 and the cover plate 2, so that this end of the traction member 32 can be located outside the housing 1, thus facilitating user operation and improving practicability.

[0072] When it is necessary to open the cover plate 2, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, pull the front end of the traction member 32 forward, so that the traction member 32 drives the free end 311 of the paddle 31 to move forward and downward, so that the free end 311 of the paddle 31 contacts the cover plate 2 and then drives the cover plate 2 forward until the cover plate 2 moves to the second position.

[0073] In some embodiments, the housing 1 further includes a first guiding groove (not shown in the figure). The first guiding groove is provided on the inner wall surface of the receiving groove 10 and extends in a direction close to or away from the cover plate 2. A part of the traction member 32 is movably engaged in the guiding groove in the front-rear direction. Thus, through the guiding action of the first guiding groove on the traction member 32, the traction member 32 can move forward more smoothly, so as to drive the free end 311 of the paddle 31 to move forward.

[0074] In some embodiments, as Figure 7 and 8 shown, a second gap 20 is formed between the cover plate 2 and the receiving groove 10. The paddle 31 is movably engaged with the inner wall surface of the pre-receiving groove 10 in a direction close to or away from the cover plate 2, and the paddle 31 corresponds to the gap, and the paddle 31 can abut against the inner wall surface of the cover plate 2. One end of the traction member 32 is connected to the free end 311 of the paddle 31, and the other end of the traction member 32 passes out of the housing 1 through the second gap 20.

[0075] In other words, one end of the traction member 32 passes through the gap between the air inlet 11 and the cover plate 2, so that this end of the traction member 32 can be located outside the housing 1, facilitating the user to use and improving the practicability. And by moving the traction member 32 forward, the flap 31 is driven to push the cover plate 2 forward, thereby opening the cover plate 2.

[0076] Specifically, as Figure 7 and 8 shown, the pushing component 3 includes a slider 34. The slider 34 includes a first section 341 and a second section 342. The first section 341 is connected to the second section 342, and the second section 342 is located on the side of the first section 341 adjacent to the cover plate 2. The size of the first section 341 is larger than the size of the second gap 20, and the first section 341 forms the flap 31. The size of the second section 342 is smaller than the size of the second gap 20, and the second section 342 forms the traction member 32. A part of the second section 342 passes through the housing 1 from the second gap 20.

[0077] For example Figure 8 shown, the size of the first section 341 in the left - right direction is larger than the size of the second gap 20 in the left - right direction. The size of the second section 342 in the left - right direction is smaller than the size of the second gap 20 in the left - right direction. Thus, a part of the first section 341 abuts against the cover plate 2, and the second section 342 can pass through the second gap 20 to the outside of the housing 1.

[0078] The housing 1 further includes a second guide groove 14. The second guide groove 14 is provided on the inner wall surface of the receiving groove 10, and the second guide groove 14 extends in a direction close to or away from the cover plate 2. The slider 34 is movably engaged with the second guide groove 14 in a direction close to or away from the cover plate 2.

[0079] That is to say, a part of the second section 342 is located outside the housing 1. When the cover plate 2 needs to be opened, the second section 342 is pulled to move forward, so that the second section 342 drives the first section 341 to move forward. The front end surface of the first section 341 pushes the cover plate 2 to move forward until the cover plate 2 moves to the second position. This not only improves the integrity of the pushing component 3, reduces the assembly difficulty between the pushing component 3 and the housing 1, but also has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture.

[0080] At this point, those skilled in the art should recognize that although multiple exemplary embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described in detail herein, still, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, many other variations or modifications that conform to the principles of the present invention can be directly determined or derived from the content disclosed in the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should be understood and determined to cover all these other variations or modifications.
