[0040] The following will introduce in detail the specific structure of an air conditioner provided by the embodiments of the present invention and the corresponding technical effects brought thereby with reference to the patent drawings.

[0041] Please refer to Figures 1 - 3, an air conditioner 1 provided by an embodiment of the present utility model includes a housing 100 and an air guiding assembly. The housing 100 includes a middle frame 110 and a base 120 connected to each other. An air outlet 111 is formed in the middle frame 110. The air guiding assembly includes a first air guiding door 210 and a second air guiding door 220 disposed at the air outlet 111. The first air guiding door 210 is connected to the middle frame 110 and can rotate relative to the middle frame 110. The second air guiding door 220 is connected to the base 120 and can rotate relative to the base 120. The first air guiding door 210 has an upper end 211 and a lower end 212 opposite to each other along its own width direction. The rotation axis of the first air guiding door 210 is located between the upper end 211 and the lower end 212.

[0042] It should be noted that the length direction of the first air guiding door 210 is parallel to the length direction of the air conditioner 1. The width direction of the first air guiding door 210 can be understood as another extending direction forming an angle with the length direction of the first air guiding door 210. The length direction, the width direction and the thickness direction of the first air guiding door 210 are arranged at an angle to each other in pairs.

[0043] It can be understood that in this embodiment, since the first air guiding door 210 and the second air guiding door 220 are respectively installed on the middle frame 110 and the base 120, during installation, after installing one of the first air guiding door 210 and the second air guiding door 220, the other has sufficient installation space during installation, thereby improving the convenience of installing the first air guiding door 210 and the second air guiding door 220.

[0044] Moreover, since the rotation axis of the first air guiding door 210 is located between the upper end 211 and the lower end 212, when the first air guiding door 210 rotates, both the outer surface and the inner side of the first air guiding door 210 can play a role in guiding air, improving the air guiding effect of the first air guiding door 210.

[0045] The air conditioner 1 further includes an upper diffuser section 300 disposed at the air outlet 111. The first air guiding door 210 is closer to the upper diffuser section 300 than the second air guiding door 220. That is to say, the first air guiding door 210 can be understood as an upper air guiding door, and the second air guiding door 220 can be understood as a lower air guiding door. A connecting portion 213 rotatably connected to the middle frame 110 is provided inside the first air guiding door 210. In the width direction of the first air guiding door 210, the connecting portion 213 is located on the side of the first air guiding door 210 close to the second air guiding door 220, and the connecting portion 213 is close to the second air guiding door 220.

[0046] It should be noted that the inner side of the first air deflector 210 can be understood as the side opposite to the outer surface of the first air deflector 210. That is to say, when the first air deflector 210 is in the closed position, the inner side of the first air deflector 210 is on the side within the air outlet 111. The above-mentioned upper end 211 is the end close to the upper diffuser section 300, and the lower end 212 is the end close to the second air deflector 220. That is to say, in this embodiment, the connecting portion 213 is relatively closer to the lower end 212 than the upper end 211. The rotation axis of the first air deflector 210 is relatively closer to the lower end 212, and the center of gravity is lower. When a large amount of air is output, it can reduce the deformation or unstable movement of the first air deflector 210 caused by its own weight.

[0047] In this embodiment, the middle frame 110 is provided with an eagle's beak 112, and the first air deflector 210 is rotatably connected to the eagle's beak 112. Specifically, the first air deflector 210 is rotatably connected to the eagle's beak 112 through the connecting portion 213. It can be understood that by providing the eagle's beak 112 on the middle frame 110, the assembly difficulty of the first air deflector 210 can be reduced, and the assembly efficiency of the first air deflector 210 can be improved.

[0048] Optionally, in order to ensure the connection strength between the connecting portion 213 and the first air deflector 210, the connecting portion 213 is further provided with reinforcing ribs 214, and the reinforcing ribs 214 are connected to the inner side of the first air deflector 210. Specifically, the number of the reinforcing ribs 214 is multiple, and the multiple reinforcing ribs 214 are arranged at intervals on the connecting portion 213, so as to avoid cracks at the connection between the connecting portion 213 and the first air deflector 210, and to ensure the service life of the first air deflector 210.

[0049] It should be noted that the multiple in this embodiment should be understood as two or more quantities. Of course, in some embodiments, the number of the reinforcing ribs 214 can also be 1, and the connecting portion 213 and the first air deflector 210 are of an integral structure.

[0050] Optionally, in some embodiments, when both the first air deflector 210 and the second air deflector 220 are in the closed position, there is a preset gap between the first air deflector 210 and the second air deflector 220. It can be understood that since there is a preset gap between the first air deflector 210 and the second air deflector 220 when the first air deflector 210 and the second air deflector 220 are in the closed position, the situation of mutual interference after the first air deflector 210 or the second air deflector 220 is opened can be reduced.

[0051] Optionally, two connectors 121 are provided at intervals along the length direction of the base 120 of the housing 100. The two ends of the second air deflector 220 along its own length direction are respectively rotatably connected to the two connectors 121. That is to say, both ends of the second air deflector 220 in its own length direction can be connected, which can ensure the stability of the connection between the second air deflector 220 and the base 120, so as to ensure the stable rotation of the second air deflector 220 on the base 120.

[0052] A mating portion 221 is provided on the inner side of the second air deflector 220. The mating portion 221 has an opposite first end and second end. The first end is connected to the second air deflector 220, and the second end is provided with a rotating portion 2211 that is rotatably connected to the connector 121. The dimension of the first end in the width direction of the second air deflector 220 is d, and the width dimension of the second air deflector 220 is D, and d:D>1 / 2. That is to say, the first end of the mating portion 221 has a sufficient area to be connected to the second air deflector 220, ensuring the connection strength between the mating portion 221 and the second air deflector 220.

[0053] Optionally, in order to further ensure the connection strength between the mating portion 221 and the second air deflector 220, a reinforcing portion 222 is further provided at the first end of the mating portion 221, and the reinforcing portion 222 is also connected to the second air deflector 220 at the same time. Specifically, the number of the reinforcing portions 222 is multiple, and the multiple reinforcing portions 222 are provided at intervals on the mating portion 221, thereby avoiding cracks at the connection between the mating portion 221 and the second air deflector 220, so as to ensure the service life of the second air deflector 220.

[0054] Of course, in some embodiments, the number of the reinforcing portions 222 can also be 1.

[0055] It should be noted that the mating portion 221 and the second air deflector 220 are of an integral structure.

[0056] In this embodiment, the width dimension of the first air deflector 210 is greater than the width dimension of the second air deflector 220. That is to say, the first air deflector 210 located on the upper side can disperse the air flow more widely, so that the coverage area of the air supply air flow is wider. Moreover, the wider first air deflector 210 can reduce the wind speed to a certain extent and can reduce the wind noise when the air flow passes through.

[0057] Of course, in some other embodiments, the length dimension of the first air deflector 210 is also greater than the length dimension of the second air deflector 220.

[0058] Optionally, in some alternative embodiments, when both the first air deflector 210 and the second air deflector 220 are in the closed state, the outer surfaces of the first air deflector 210 and the second air deflector 220 are coplanar, thereby being able to improve the aesthetics of the outer surface of the air conditioner 1 in the closed state.

[0059] In summary, the embodiment of the present utility model provides an air conditioner 1, which includes a housing 100 and an air guiding component. The housing 100 includes a middle frame 110 and a base 120 which are connected to each other. An air outlet 111 is formed in the middle frame 110. The air guiding component includes a first air guiding door 210 and a second air guiding door 220 disposed at the air outlet 111. The first air guiding door 210 is connected to the middle frame 110 and can rotate relative to the middle frame 110. The second air guiding door 220 is connected to the base 120 and can rotate relative to the base 120. The first air guiding door 210 has an upper end 211 and a lower end 212 opposite to each other along its width direction. The rotation axis of the first air guiding door 210 is located between the upper end 211 and the lower end 212. Since the first air guiding door 210 and the second air guiding door 220 are respectively installed on the middle frame 110 and the base 120, it can ensure that the first air guiding door 210 and the second air guiding door 220 have sufficient installation space, and improve the installation convenience of the first air guiding door 210 and the second air guiding door 220.

[0060] The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. For those skilled in the art, the present utility model may have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
