Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air conditioners, and more specifically, to an air conditioner. Background Art

[0002] With the development of technology and the improvement of people's living standards, air conditioners that can adjust the temperature have been more and more widely used.

[0003] After research by the inventor, it is found that some existing air conditioners have a small air supply range after startup. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an air conditioner, which can increase the air supply range of the air conditioner.

[0005] The embodiments of the utility model are implemented as follows:

[0006] In a first aspect, the utility model provides an air conditioner, including:

[0007] A housing, with an air outlet provided on the housing;

[0008] An upper diffuser section, provided at the air outlet;

[0009] An upper air deflector, provided at the air outlet and rotatably connected to the housing;

[0010] A lower air deflector, provided at the air outlet and rotatably connected to the housing;

[0011] The lower air deflector can be opened to a first open position. When the lower air deflector is in the first open position, the distance between the upper end of the lower air deflector and the upper diffuser section is 0-10 mm, for guiding the air flow blown out from the air outlet to blow downward;

[0012] Wherein, a rotating part rotatably connected to the housing is provided at the upper end of the upper air deflector.

[0013] Through the above settings, before the upper air deflector rotates clockwise to be perpendicular to the height direction, the upper air deflector always deflects air downward. The cooperation between the upper air deflector and the lower air deflector can increase the air supply range of the air blown out by the air conditioner.

[0014] In an optional embodiment, the lower air deflector can continue to rotate clockwise so that the lower air deflector rotates from the first open position to a second open position. When the lower air deflector is in the second open position, the outer surface of the lower air deflector faces the upper diffuser section.

[0015] With the above settings, part of the air flow generated by the air conditioner is guided out between the lower air deflector and the upper diffuser section, and another part can also be guided out through the side of the lower air deflector away from the outer surface. By dividing the air flow into two parts and leading it out, the noise generated when the air flow is blown out can be reduced.

[0016] In an alternative embodiment, when both the upper air deflector and the lower air deflector are in the closed position, there is a preset distance between the upper air deflector and the lower air deflector.

[0017] With the above settings, the interference that occurs when the upper air deflector and the lower air deflector rotate can be reduced.

[0018] In an alternative embodiment, when the lower air deflector is in the first open position and the upper air deflector is in the closed position, the upper air deflector and the lower air deflector are used to guide the air flow blown out from the air outlet to blow downward.

[0019] With the above settings, the air flow generated by the air conditioner will also be guided downward by the inner side of the upper air deflector to blow out, so as to improve the ability to deliver cold air or warm air to the lower part of the room faster.

[0020] In an alternative embodiment, the air outlet has a first limiting portion, and a matching portion is provided on one side of the upper air deflector close to the first limiting portion. When the upper air deflector is in the closed position, the first limiting portion abuts against the matching portion to limit the upper air deflector from rotating counterclockwise.

[0021] With the above settings, it is ensured that the upper air deflector cannot continue to rotate after being closed in place.

[0022] In an alternative embodiment, the air outlet has a lower end of the air outlet away from the first limiting portion. When the upper air deflector is in the closed position, the angle β between the direction in which the lower end of the upper air deflector points to the upper end of the upper air deflector and a preset straight line passing through the lower end of the air outlet is in the range of 20 to 35°, and the preset straight line is parallel to the height direction of the air conditioner.

[0023] With the above settings, it can be ensured that the air outlet has a sufficient air-sweeping range during the rotation of the lower air deflector.

[0024] In an alternative embodiment, when the upper air deflector is in the extreme open position, the angle between the direction in which the lower end of the upper air deflector points to the upper end of the upper air deflector and a preset straight line passing through the lower end is in the range of 75 to 150°.

[0025] With the above settings, it is ensured that under the air guiding action of the upper air deflector, there is a sufficient air guiding range.

[0026] In an alternative embodiment, when the lower air deflector is in the closed position, the inner wall of the lower air deflector is used to guide the air flow blown out from the air outlet to blow forward or upward.

[0027] With the above settings, when the lower air deflector is in the closed position, the airflow blown out from the air outlet can be guided forward or upward by the inner wall of the lower air deflector to avoid directly blowing on the user.

[0028] In an alternative embodiment, one end of the air outlet away from the upper diffuser section has a second limiting portion. When the lower air deflector is in the closed position, the lower end of the lower air deflector is opposite to the second limiting portion, and the second limiting portion is used to limit the counterclockwise rotation of the lower air deflector.

[0029] With the above settings, the second limiting portion is used to limit the counterclockwise rotation of the lower air deflector to ensure that the lower air deflector is closed in place.

[0030] In an alternative embodiment, the housing includes a base and a middle frame connected to the base. The rotating portion is rotatably connected to the middle frame, and the lower air deflector is rotatably connected to the base.

[0031] With the above settings, the convenience of assembling the upper air deflector and the lower air deflector can be improved. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0045] The following will introduce in detail the specific structure of an air conditioner provided by an embodiment of the present utility model and the corresponding technical effects brought thereby with reference to the patent drawings.

[0046] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , an air conditioner 1 provided by an embodiment of the present utility model includes a housing 100, an upper diffuser section 500, an upper air deflector, and a lower air deflector.

[0047] The housing 100 is provided with an air outlet 110. The upper diffuser section 500 is arranged at the air outlet 110. The upper air deflector 200 is arranged at the air outlet 110 and is rotatably connected to the housing 100. The lower air deflector 300 is arranged at the air outlet 110 and is rotatably connected to the housing 100. The lower air deflector 300 can be opened to a first open position. When the lower air deflector 300 is in the first open position, the distance between the upper end of the lower air deflector 300 and the diffuser section is 0 to 10 mm, which is used to guide the air flow at the air outlet 110 to blow downward. A rotating portion 210 rotatably connected to the housing 100 is arranged at the upper end of the upper air deflector.

[0048] It should be noted that the air conditioner 1 in this embodiment refers to an indoor wall-mounted air conditioner. It can be understood that when the air conditioner 1 is hung on a wall and the lower air deflector 300 is in the closed position, the higher end in height of the lower air deflector 300 is the upper end of the lower air deflector 300, and the lower end in height of the lower air deflector 300 is the lower end of the lower air deflector 300.

[0049] It can be understood that when the lower air deflector 300 in this embodiment rotates to the first open position, the distance between the upper end of the lower air deflector 300 and the diffuser section is 0 to 10 mm. At this time, most of the air flow generated by the air conditioner 1 can be guided by the lower air deflector 300 to blow downward. It can be understood that since most of the air flow can be guided downward, during heating or cooling, the cold air or warm air can reach the lower part of the room faster, accelerating the temperature change of the ground or the user's activity area, thereby improving the heating or cooling efficiency.

[0050] Moreover, since the distance between the upper end of the lower air deflector 300 and the diffuser section is in the range of 0 to 10 mm, most of the air flow generated by the air conditioner 1 can be guided by the lower air deflector 300 to blow downward. When the upper air deflector 200 is closed, the air flow blowing towards the front air deflector can be reduced, ensuring that most of the air flow flows along the predetermined path, avoiding air flow chaos, improving the air supply efficiency, and also reducing the noise caused by air flow chaos.

[0051] Moreover, in this embodiment, since the upper end of the upper air deflector is provided with a rotating portion 210 rotatably connected to the housing 100, the rotation direction of the upper air deflector when it is opened is clockwise. Therefore, before the upper air deflector rotates clockwise to be perpendicular to the height direction, the upper air deflector deflects air downward. When the air deflector rotates clockwise to form an obtuse angle with the height direction, the upper air deflector can deflect the air flow blown out from the air outlet 110 upward. The cooperation between the upper air deflector and the lower air deflector can increase the air outlet range of the air blown out of the air conditioner 1.

[0052] In some alternative embodiments, when the lower air deflector 300 is in the first open position, the upper end of the lower air deflector 300 abuts against the upper diffuser section 500. That is to say, at this time, the distance between the upper end of the lower air deflector 300 and the upper diffuser section 500 is 0. It can be understood that when the lower air deflector 300 is in the first open position and the upper end of the lower air deflector 300 abuts against the upper diffuser section 500, more air flow can be further guided downward by the lower air deflector 300, further improving the refrigeration or heating efficiency.

[0053] Moreover, when the upper end of the lower air deflector 300 abuts against the upper diffuser section 500, most of the air flow generated by the air conditioner 1 will blow out from below the air outlet 110, and the situation of directly blowing on the user can also be avoided.

[0054] Of course, in some other embodiments, when the lower air deflector 300 is in the first open position, the distance between the upper end of the lower air deflector 300 and the upper diffuser section 500 can also be 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm or 10 mm.

[0055] It can be understood that through the above settings, there is a first air outlet mode. In the case of the first air outlet mode, the upper air deflector is closed, and at this time, the lower air deflector is in the first open position. The upper air deflector and the lower air deflector are used to guide the air flow blown out from the air outlet 110 to blow downward. It can be understood that the air flow generated by the air conditioner 1 will also be guided downward by the inner side of the upper air deflector 200 to improve the speed of delivering cold air or warm air to the lower part of the room.

[0056] The lower air deflector can rotate clockwise so that the lower air deflector rotates from the first open position to the second open position. When the lower air deflector is in the second open position, the outer surface of the lower air deflector faces the upper diffuser section 500. It can be understood that when the outer surface of the lower air deflector faces the upper diffuser section 500, part of the air flow generated by the air conditioner 1 is guided out through the gap between the lower air deflector and the upper diffuser section 500, and the other part can also be guided out through the side of the lower air deflector away from the outer surface. By splitting the air flow into two parts, the noise generated when the air flow blows out can be reduced.

[0057] It can be understood that when the lower air deflector is in the first open position and the upper end of the lower air deflector abuts against the upper diffuser section 500, the lower air deflector can continue to rotate clockwise in the open direction to the second open position.

[0058] When both the upper air deflector and the lower air deflector are in the closed position, there is a preset gap between the upper air deflector 200 and the lower air deflector 300. It can be understood that through the setting of the preset gap, the interference that occurs when the upper air deflector 200 and the lower air deflector 300 rotate can be reduced.

[0059] The air outlet 110 has a first limiting portion 111, and one side of the upper air deflector 200 close to the first limiting portion 111 has a mating portion 220. When the upper air deflector is in the closed position, the first limiting portion 111 abuts against the mating portion 220 to limit the counterclockwise rotation of the upper air deflector. To ensure that the upper air deflector 200 cannot continue to rotate after closing in place. Specifically, the mating portion 220 is located on the side of the rotating portion 210 away from the upper air deflector 200.

[0060] The air outlet 110 has a lower air outlet end away from the first limiting portion 111. When the upper air deflector 200 is in the closed position, the angle β between the direction in which the lower end of the upper air deflector points to the upper end of the upper air deflector and a preset straight line 400 passing through the lower air outlet end is in the range of 20° to 35°. The preset straight line 400 is parallel to the height direction of the air conditioner 1.

[0061] The height direction of the air conditioner 1 can be understood as the height direction when the air conditioner 1 is hung on the wall and is parallel to the vertical direction.

[0062] It can be understood that when the upper air deflector is in the closed position, β determines the air outlet range of the air outlet 110. Since β is between 20° and 35°, it can ensure that the air outlet 110 has a sufficient air sweeping range during the rotation of the lower air deflector.

[0063] When the upper air deflector is in the extreme open position, the angle α between the direction in which the lower end of the upper air deflector points to the upper end of the upper air deflector and a preset straight line 400 passing through the lower air outlet end is in the range of 75° to 150°, so as to ensure that under the air guiding action of the upper air deflector 200, there is a sufficient air sweeping range.

[0064] Optionally, when the lower air deflector 300 is in the closed position, the inner wall of the lower air deflector 300 is used to guide the air flow blown out from the air outlet 110 to blow forward or upward, so as to prevent the blown air from directly blowing on the user.

[0065] One end of the air outlet 110 away from the upper diffuser section 500 has a second limiting portion 112. Specifically, the second limiting portion 112 is the lower end of the air outlet as described above. When the lower air deflector 300 is in the closed position, the lower end of the lower air deflector 300 faces the second limiting portion 112, and the second limiting portion 112 is used to limit the counterclockwise rotation of the lower air deflector 300 to ensure that the lower air deflector 300 is closed in place.

[0066] Specifically, in this embodiment, the housing 100 includes a base 130 and a middle frame 120 connected to the base 130. Among them, the air outlet 110 is provided on the middle frame 120, the rotating portion 210 is rotatably connected to the middle frame 120, and the lower air deflector is rotatably connected to the base 130. It can be understood that by separately arranging the upper air deflector and the lower air deflector on the middle frame 120 and the base 130, the installation difficulty of the upper air deflector and the lower air deflector can be reduced.

[0067] In summary, the embodiment of the present utility model provides an air conditioner 1, which includes a housing 100, an upper diffuser section 500, an upper air deflector and a lower air deflector. The housing 100 is provided with an air outlet 110, the upper diffuser section 500 is arranged at the air outlet 110, the upper air deflector is arranged at the air outlet 110 and is rotatably connected to the housing 100, and the lower air deflector is arranged at the air outlet 110 and is rotatably connected to the housing 100. The lower air deflector can be opened to a first open position. When the lower air deflector is in the first open position, the distance between the upper end of the lower air deflector and the diffuser section is 0-10 mm, which is used to guide the air flow at the air outlet 110 to blow downward. The upper end of the upper air deflector is provided with a rotating portion 210 rotatably connected to the housing 100. Therefore, before the upper air deflector rotates clockwise to be perpendicular to the height direction, the upper air deflector blows air downward, and when the air deflector rotates clockwise to form an obtuse angle with the height direction, at this time the upper air deflector can blow the air flow blown out from the air outlet 110 upward. The air outlet range of the air blown out to the air conditioner 1 can be improved through the cooperation of the upper air deflector and the lower air deflector.

[0068] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. For those skilled in the art, the present utility model can have various changes and modifications. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the present utility model.
