[0072] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention and should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.
[0073] Refer to Figures 1 - 29 to describe the air conditioner according to the embodiment of the present invention.
[0074] Refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 11 and Figure 22 , the air conditioner according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a housing component 1, a heat exchanger assembly 2 and an air duct assembly 3. The housing component 1 includes a rear housing component 11 and a front housing component 12. The front housing component 12 is connected to the front side of the rear housing component 11. The front housing component 12 is formed with an air outlet 124 and an air inlet 125. The rear housing component 11 is formed with an air inlet 111. The heat exchanger assembly 2 is disposed in the housing component 1 and the heat exchanger assembly 2 is located in the rear housing component 11. The air duct assembly 3 is disposed in the housing component 1 and the air duct assembly 3 is located between the heat exchanger assembly 2 and the air outlet 124. The air inlet 125 can facilitate the entry of normal temperature air outside the housing component 1, and can also facilitate the air inside the housing component 1 to flow out of the housing component 1 through the air inlet 125. For example, when the air outlet 124 and the air inlet 125 are opened, the air inlet 125 can facilitate the entry of normal temperature air outside the housing component 1 into the housing component 1, and after being mixed with the air that has exchanged heat inside the housing component 1, it is blown out through the air outlet 124 into the room; for another example, when the air outlet 124 is closed and the air inlet 125 is opened, the air inlet 125 can also facilitate the air that has exchanged heat inside the housing component 1 to be blown out through the air inlet 125 into the room to cool or heat the room.
[0075] The front housing component 12 is provided with an air outlet channel 121 and an air guiding channel 122 inside. The air guiding channel 122 is located above the air outlet channel 121. There is a communication port 123 for connecting the air guiding channel 122 and the air outlet channel 121 between the air guiding channel 122 and the air outlet channel 121. The air outlet 124 is opposite to the air outlet channel 121 and the air outlet 124 is communicated with the air outlet channel 121. The air inlet 125 is located above the air outlet channel 121 and the air inlet 125 is communicated with the air guiding channel 122. At least one air guiding baffle is arranged in the air guiding channel 122, and the air guiding baffle is connected to the front housing component 12. The air duct assembly 3 includes an air duct volute 31 and an air wheel 32. An air duct 311 is provided inside the air duct volute 31. At least part of the air wheel 32 is located inside the air duct 311. The air duct 311 communicates the air inlet 111 with the air outlet channel 121.
[0076] Among them, at least part of the air wheel 32 being located inside the air duct 311 can include the following situations: For example, it can be that the whole of the air wheel 32 is located inside the air duct 311; For another example, it can be that a part of the air wheel 32 is located inside the air duct 311.
[0077] When the air conditioner is working, the air wheel 32 can drive the air flow to enter the rear housing component 11 through the air inlet 111 and flow towards the heat exchanger assembly 2. The air after being heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 can flow towards the air outlet channel 121 through the air duct 311 inside the air duct volute 31, and then be blown out through the air outlet 124 to the room to cool or heat the room. The air inlet 125 can introduce the normal-temperature air in the room into the air guiding channel 122, flow into the air outlet channel 121 through the communication port 123, and be mixed with the air after being heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 in the air outlet channel 121, and then be sent out through the air outlet 124, which can make the air flow at the air outlet 124 more comfortable, and further improve the user experience.
[0078] When the air conditioner is working, when the air outlet 124 and the air inlet 125 are in the open state, the air wheel 32 can drive the air flow to enter the rear housing component 11 through the air inlet 111 and flow towards the heat exchanger assembly 2. The air after being heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 can flow towards the air outlet channel 121 through the air duct 311 inside the air duct volute 31, and then be blown out through the air outlet 124 to the room. At this time, there is a high-speed flowing gas flowing out at the air outlet 124, which can form a negative pressure area near the air outlet channel 121. For example, it can make the air guiding channel 122 form a negative pressure area. In this way, the normal-temperature air outside the machine shell can be driven to be introduced into the air guiding channel 122 through the air inlet 125, flow into the air outlet channel 121 through the communication port 123, and be mixed with the air after being heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 in the air outlet channel 121, and then be sent out through the air outlet 124, so that the air sent out from the air outlet 124 will not be too cold or too hot, and the air flow blown out from the air outlet 124 is more comfortable.
[0079] The air guiding baffle blocks the flow area of the gas in the air guiding channel 122 to a certain extent. Since the flow area of the gas in the air guiding channel 122 is reduced, the gas accelerates through the air guiding channel 122, resulting in a greater negative pressure at the air guiding baffle. Furthermore, more normal-temperature air can enter the air guiding channel 122 through the air guiding port 125, and then enter the air outlet channel 121 through the communication port 123 to mix with the air that has been heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 in the air outlet channel 121, which can improve the mixing effect of the air flow in the air outlet channel 121 and make the air flow at the air outlet 124 more comfortable.
[0080] For example, when the air outlet 124 and the air guiding port 125 are in the open state and the air conditioner is in the cooling mode, the air impeller 32 can drive the air flow to enter the rear housing component 11 through the air inlet 111 and flow towards the heat exchanger assembly 2. The air that has been heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 can flow towards the air outlet channel 121 through the air duct 311 in the air duct volute 31, and then be blown out to the room through the air outlet 124. At this time, there is a high-speed flowing gas flowing out at the air outlet 124, which can form a negative pressure area near the air outlet channel 121. For example, it can make the negative pressure at the air guiding baffle greater, so that more normal-temperature air outside the housing component 1 can be introduced into the air guiding channel 122 through the air guiding port 125, flow into the air outlet channel 121 through the communication port 123, and mix with the relatively low-temperature air that has been heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 in the air outlet channel 121, and then be sent out from the air outlet 124. The normal-temperature air introduced through the air guiding port 125 and the air guiding channel 122 is relatively higher in temperature than the heat-exchanged air, and the temperature of the air heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 is relatively lower. After the relatively low-temperature heat-exchanged air is mixed with the introduced normal-temperature air, the air flow temperature at the air outlet 124 can be made more comfortable.
[0081] For another example, when the air outlet 124 and the air guiding port 125 are in the open state and the air conditioner is in the heating mode, the air impeller 32 can drive the air flow to enter the rear housing component 11 through the air inlet 111 and flow towards the heat exchanger assembly 2. The air that has been heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 can flow towards the air outlet channel 121 through the air duct 311 in the air duct volute 31, and then be blown out to the room through the air outlet 124. At this time, there is a high-speed flowing gas flowing out at the air outlet 124, which can form a negative pressure area near the air outlet channel 121. For example, it can make the negative pressure at the air guiding baffle greater, so that more normal-temperature air outside the housing component 1 can be introduced into the air guiding channel 122 through the air guiding port 125, flow into the air outlet channel 121 through the communication port 123, mix with the air that has been heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 in the air outlet channel 121, and then be sent out from the air outlet 124. The normal-temperature air introduced through the air guiding port 125 and the air guiding channel 122 is relatively higher in temperature than the heat-exchanged air, and the temperature of the air heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 is relatively lower. After the relatively low-temperature heat-exchanged air is mixed with the introduced normal-temperature air, the air flow temperature at the air outlet 124 can be made more comfortable.
[0082] For another example, when the air outlet 124 is in the closed state, the air induction port 125 is in the open state and the air conditioner is operating, the impeller 32 can drive the air flow to enter the rear housing component 11 through the air inlet 111 and flow towards the heat exchanger assembly 2. The air after being heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 can flow towards the air outlet passage 121 through the air passage 311 in the air passage volute 31. By connecting the air outlet passage 121 and the air induction passage 122 through the connection port 123, the air in the air outlet passage 121 can flow into the air induction passage 122 through the connection port 123, and then flow out to the room through the air induction port 125 to cool or heat the room. Since the air induction port 125 is located above the air outlet passage 121 and also above the air outlet 124, the position of the air outlet is relatively high, which can reduce the discomfort caused by direct blowing, thereby improving the user experience.
[0083] By forming the air induction port 125 on the front housing component 12 and the air induction port 125 being located above the air outlet passage 121, external normal-temperature air can be introduced, mixed with the heat-exchanged air and then blown out through the air outlet 124, making the air flow temperature at the air outlet 124 more comfortable. Moreover, when the air outlet 124 is closed, the heat-exchanged air flow can be blown out from the relatively high air induction port 125, which can reduce the discomfort caused by direct blowing, improve the user experience, and while realizing the air mixing function of the air conditioner, the space in the room along the up and down direction can be fully utilized, the width of the air conditioner can be reduced, and thus the occupation of the space in the horizontal direction of the room can be reduced.
[0084] According to the air conditioner of the embodiment of the present invention, through the provided air induction passage 122 and the air induction port 125, external normal-temperature air can be introduced, mixed with the heat-exchanged air and then blown out through the air outlet 124, which can make the air outlet of the air conditioner more comfortable. And by providing at least one air induction baffle in the air induction passage 122, the negative pressure at the air induction baffle can be made larger, so that more normal-temperature air outside the housing component 1 can enter the air induction passage 122 through the air induction port 125, and then enter the air outlet passage 121 through the connection port 123 to be mixed with the heat-exchanged air in the air outlet passage 121, which can improve the mixing effect of the air flow in the air outlet passage 121 and make the air flow at the air outlet 124 more comfortable. Moreover, while realizing the air mixing function of the air conditioner, the space in the room along the up and down direction can be fully utilized, the width of the air conditioner can be reduced, and thus the occupation of the space in the horizontal direction of the room can be reduced.
[0085] Refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9, optionally, there may be two air outlets 124 spaced left and right. The air outlet passage 121 includes a main air outlet passage 1201 and two branch air outlet passages 1202. The two branch air outlet passages 1202 are located on the downstream side of the main air outlet passage 1201. The main air outlet passage 1201 connects the air duct 311 with the branch air outlet passages 1202. The two branch air outlet passages 1202 respectively correspond to the two air outlets 124. Each branch air outlet passage 1202 connects the corresponding air outlet 124 with the main air outlet passage 1201.
[0086] Referring to Figure 22 and Figure 29 , according to some embodiments of the present invention, the air guiding baffles are multiple and spaced apart, which can increase the shielding area in the air guiding passage 122, so as to separate the air guiding passage 122 from the air outlet passage 121, and reduce or avoid the possibility that the air flow after heat exchange in the air outlet passage 121 enters the air guiding passage 122; and, through the multiple air guiding baffles spaced apart, the flow area of the gas in the air guiding passage 122 can be further shielded. When the air flow in the air guiding passage 122 flows through the slit between adjacent air guiding baffles, an air slit effect will be generated. The air slit effect includes a collision effect and an adsorption effect. This collision effect and adsorption effect will make the negative pressure at the air guiding baffle greater, so that more normal temperature air can enter the air guiding passage 122 through the air guiding port 125, and then enter the air outlet passage 121 through the communication port 123 to be mixed with the air after heat exchange by the heat exchanger assembly 2 in the air outlet passage 121, which is beneficial to improving the mixing effect of the air flow in the air outlet passage 121 and making the air flow at the air outlet 124 more comfortable.
[0087] Among them, the collision effect means that when the gas in the air guiding passage 122 approaches the air guiding baffle, at least part of the gas collides with the air guiding baffle. This collision will change the flow direction and speed of the gas in the air guiding passage, making the gas move towards the communication port 123, so that the normal temperature air can enter the air outlet passage 121 towards the communication port 123 as much as possible to be mixed with the heat-exchanged gas, which can improve the mixing effect of the air flow in the air outlet passage 121.
[0088] The adsorption effect means that when the gas in the air guiding passage 122 approaches the air guiding baffle, at least part of the gas is adsorbed on the air guiding baffle. This adsorption will slow down the movement speed of the gas, making the negative pressure at the air guiding baffle greater, and further enabling more normal temperature air to enter the air guiding passage 122 through the air guiding port 125, and then enter the air outlet passage 121 through the communication port 123 to be mixed with the air after heat exchange by the heat exchanger assembly 2 in the air outlet passage 121, which can improve the mixing effect of the air flow in the air outlet passage 121 and make the air flow at the air outlet 124 more comfortable.
[0089] In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "multiple" is two or more.
[0090] Referring to Figure 22 and Figure 29 Figure 22 and Figure 29 , according to some embodiments of the present utility model, at least part of the air guiding baffles are arranged at intervals in the up-down direction, which can effectively separate the air guiding channel 122 and the air outlet channel 121, reducing or avoiding the backflow of the air flow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121 into the air guiding channel 122; and, at least part of the air guiding baffles are arranged at intervals in the up-down direction. Since each air guiding baffle blocks at least part of the backflow of the air flow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121 into the air guiding channel 122, this will make the negative pressure at the air guiding baffle greater, so that a plurality of local negative pressure areas can be formed in the air guiding channel 122. These negative pressure areas can attract more normal-temperature air to enter the air guiding channel 122 through the air guiding port 125, thereby increasing the inflow of normal-temperature air, and further enhancing the mixing effect of the normal-temperature air and the air flow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121.
[0091] Among them, the situation that at least part of the air guiding baffles are arranged at intervals in the up-down direction may include the following: for example, all the air guiding baffles may be arranged at intervals in the up-down direction; for another example, a part of the air guiding baffles may be arranged at intervals in the up-down direction.
[0092] Referring to Figure 22 and Figure 29 Figure 22 and Figure 29 , according to some embodiments of the present utility model, at least part of the air guiding baffles are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction, which can effectively separate the air guiding channel 122 and the air outlet channel 121, reducing or avoiding the backflow of the air flow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121 into the air guiding channel 122; and, at least part of the air guiding baffles are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction. Since each air guiding baffle blocks a certain amount of the backflow of the air flow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121 into the air guiding channel 122, this will make the negative pressure at the air guiding baffle greater, so that a plurality of local negative pressure areas can be formed in the air guiding channel 122. These negative pressure areas can attract more normal-temperature air to enter the air guiding channel 122 through the air guiding port 125, thereby increasing the inflow of normal-temperature air, and further enhancing the mixing effect of the normal-temperature air and the air flow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121.
[0093] Among them, the situation that at least part of the air guiding baffles are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction may include the following: for example, all the air guiding baffles may be arranged at intervals in the left-right direction; for another example, a part of the air guiding baffles may be arranged at intervals in the left-right direction.
[0094] Referring to Figure 22 and Figure 29, according to some embodiments of the present utility model, at least part of the air guiding baffles are arranged at intervals in the up-down direction; and, at least part of the air guiding baffles are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction, which can more effectively separate the air guiding channel 122 and the air outlet channel 121, reduce or avoid the backflow of the heat-exchanged air flow in the air outlet channel 121 into the air guiding channel 122; and, multiple local negative pressure areas can be formed in the air guiding channel 122, and these negative pressure areas can attract more normal temperature air to enter the air guiding channel 122 through the air guiding opening 125, thereby increasing the inflow of the normal temperature air, and further enhancing the mixing effect of the normal temperature air and the heat-exchanged air flow in the air outlet channel 121.
[0095] Refer to Figure 22 and Figure 29 , according to some embodiments of the present utility model, multiple air guiding baffles are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction. In the left-right direction, the projections of adjacent two air guiding baffles on the horizontal plane are spaced apart, and multiple air flow blocking areas can be formed on the horizontal plane in the air guiding channel 122 to effectively separate the air guiding channel 122 and the air outlet channel 121, reduce or avoid the backflow of the heat-exchanged air flow in the air outlet channel 121 into the air guiding channel 122; and, the projections of adjacent two air guiding baffles on the horizontal plane are spaced apart, and multiple locally distributed local negative pressure areas can be formed in the air guiding channel 122. These locally distributed local negative pressure areas can attract more normal temperature air to enter the air guiding channel 122 through the air guiding opening 125, and can also make the normal temperature air evenly distributed on the horizontal plane in the air guiding channel 122, which can improve the mixing effect of the normal temperature air in the air outlet channel 121 and make the air flow at the air outlet 124 more comfortable.
[0096] Refer to Figure 28 and Figure 29 , according to some embodiments of the present utility model, the horizontal distance w1 between the projections of adjacent two air guiding baffles on the horizontal plane is 2 mm to 12 mm. For example, the horizontal distance w1 between the projections of adjacent two air guiding baffles on the horizontal plane can be 2 mm, 5 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm, 12 mm, etc. By making the horizontal distance w1 between the projections of adjacent two air guiding baffles on the horizontal plane not less than 2 mm, a local negative pressure area can be formed between adjacent two air guiding baffles, and further more normal temperature air can be introduced into the air guiding channel 122 through the air guiding opening 125; by making the horizontal distance w1 between the projections of adjacent two air guiding baffles on the horizontal plane not greater than 12 mm, the air guiding baffle can effectively isolate the air outlet channel 121 and the air guiding channel 122, and reduce or avoid the heat-exchanged air flow in the air outlet channel 121 from flowing into the air guiding channel 122 through the gap between adjacent two air guiding baffles.
[0097] By setting the horizontal distance w1 between the projections of two adjacent air guiding baffles on the horizontal plane to be 2 mm to 12 mm, a local negative pressure area can be formed between two adjacent air guiding baffles, and the airflow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121 can be reduced or prevented from flowing into the air guiding channel 122 through the gap between two adjacent air guiding baffles.
[0098] Referring to Figure 28 and Figure 29 According to some embodiments of the present invention, a plurality of air guiding baffles are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction. In the left-right direction, two adjacent air guiding baffles are located at different height positions. Due to a certain height difference between two adjacent air guiding baffles, when the airflow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121 encounters the air guiding baffle, an airflow blocking area will be formed near the air guiding baffle. These blocking areas can effectively separate the air guiding channel 122 and the air outlet channel 121, reducing or preventing the airflow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121 from flowing back into the air guiding channel 122; and, when the airflow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121 encounters air guiding baffles at different heights, a local negative pressure area can be formed between two adjacent air guiding baffles, thereby attracting more normal-temperature air to enter the air guiding channel 122 through the air inlet 125.
[0099] Referring to Figure 18 and Figure 28 , according to some embodiments of the present invention, in the left-right direction, the distance w2 between two adjacent air guiding baffles in the up-down direction is not less than 20 mm. For example, the distance w2 between two adjacent air guiding baffles in the up-down direction can be 20 mm, 35 mm, 48 mm, 50 mm, 65 mm, etc. In the left-right direction, by setting the distance w2 between two adjacent air guiding baffles in the up-down direction to be not less than 20 mm, it can be ensured that when the airflow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121 encounters air guiding baffles at different heights, sufficient local negative pressure can be generated between two adjacent air guiding baffles to attract more normal-temperature air into the air guiding channel 122.
[0100] Referring to Figure 14 and Figure 28, according to some embodiments of the present utility model, in the left - right direction, the distance w2 between two adjacent air - guiding baffles in the up - down direction is 20 mm to 50 mm. For example, the distance w2 between two adjacent air - guiding baffles in the up - down direction can be 20 mm, 25 mm, 35 mm, 48 mm, 50 mm, etc. In the left - right direction, by ensuring that the distance w2 between two adjacent air - guiding baffles in the up - down direction is not less than 20 mm, it can be ensured that when the heat - exchanged air flow in the high - height air - outlet channel 121 encounters air - guiding baffles of different heights, sufficient local negative pressure can be generated between two adjacent air - guiding baffles to attract more normal - temperature air into the air - guiding channel 122; by ensuring that the distance w2 between two adjacent air - guiding baffles in the up - down direction is not greater than 50 mm, it can reduce or avoid the heat - exchanged air flow in the air - outlet channel 121 from flowing into the air - guiding channel 122 through the distance between two adjacent air - guiding baffles due to the excessive distance between two adjacent air - guiding baffles in the up - down direction.
[0101] In the left - right direction, by the distance w2 between two adjacent air - guiding baffles in the up - down direction being 20 mm to 50 mm, an appropriate height difference can ensure that the heat - exchanged air flow in the air - outlet channel 121 generates sufficient local negative pressure when encountering the air - guiding baffles to attract more normal - temperature air into the air - guiding channel 122, and can reduce or avoid the heat - exchanged air flow in the air - outlet channel 121 from flowing into the air - guiding channel 122 through the distance between two adjacent air - guiding baffles.
[0102] Refer to Figure 18 and Figure 19 , according to some embodiments of the present utility model, an air - flow inlet 133 communicating with the air - outlet channel 121 is formed at the rear side of the front - shell component 12. At least part of the air - guiding baffles are arranged at intervals in the up - down direction, and the distance w3 between the upper edge of the air - flow inlet 133 and the lowermost air - guiding baffle in the up - down direction is 50 mm to 70 mm. The air - flow inlet 133 can connect the air duct 311 and the air - outlet channel 121, so that the air flow heat - exchanged by the heat - exchanger assembly 2 in the air duct 311 can smoothly flow into the air - outlet channel 121 through the air - flow inlet 133. At least part of the air - guiding baffles are arranged at intervals in the up - down direction, which can form multiple locally - negative - pressure areas distributed at intervals in the air - guiding channel 122. These locally - negative - pressure areas distributed at intervals can attract more normal - temperature air to enter the air - guiding channel 122 through the air - guiding openings 125, and can also make the normal - temperature air evenly distributed on the horizontal plane in the air - guiding channel 122, which can improve the mixing effect of the normal - temperature air in the air - outlet channel 121 and make the air flow at the air - outlet 124 more comfortable.
[0103] Among them, at least part of the air - guiding baffles being arranged at intervals in the up - down direction can include the following situations: for example, all the air - guiding baffles can be arranged at intervals in the up - down direction; for another example, part of the air - guiding baffles can also be arranged at intervals in the up - down direction.
[0104] For example, the vertical distance w3 between the lowermost air guiding baffle and the upper edge of the air inlet 133 can be 50 mm, 55 mm, 60 mm, 65 mm, 70 mm, etc. By setting the vertical distance w3 between the lowermost air guiding baffle and the upper edge of the air inlet 133 to be not less than 50 mm, there is sufficient space between the air inlet 133 and the lowermost air guiding baffle to form a local negative pressure area, so as to attract normal temperature air to enter the air guiding channel 122 through the air guiding port 125. It can also enable the air flow after heat exchange in the air duct 311 to smoothly flow through the air inlet 133 into the air outlet channel 121, and can reduce the noise generated by the collision between the air flow after heat exchange and the lowermost air guiding baffle; by setting the vertical distance w3 between the lowermost air guiding baffle and the upper edge of the air inlet 133 to be not greater than 70 mm, an effective negative pressure area can be ensured to be formed near the lowermost air guiding baffle, so as to attract normal temperature air to enter the air guiding channel 122 through the air guiding port 125 and flow towards the communication port 123.
[0105] By setting the vertical distance w3 between the lowermost air guiding baffle and the upper edge of the air inlet 133 to be 50 mm to 70 mm, an effective negative pressure area can be ensured to be formed near the lowermost air guiding baffle, so as to attract normal temperature air to enter the air guiding channel 122 through the air guiding port 125 and flow towards the communication port 123, and can enable the air flow after heat exchange in the air duct 311 to smoothly flow through the air inlet 133 into the air outlet channel 121, and can reduce the noise generated by the collision between the air flow after heat exchange and the lowermost air guiding baffle during the flow process.
[0106] Referring to Figure 28 , according to some embodiments of the present invention, at least one air guiding baffle is inclined relative to the horizontal plane, which can collect and guide at least part of the condensed water in the air guiding channel 122, and reduce or avoid problems such as short - circuit of other components in the air outlet channel 121 caused by the direct inflow of the condensed water in the air guiding channel 122 into the air outlet channel 121.
[0107] Referring to Figure 28 , according to some embodiments of the present invention, at least one air guiding baffle includes a first air guiding baffle 1221. The first air guiding baffle 1221 is adjacent to the air guiding port 125, and the first air guiding baffle 1221 extends obliquely upward in the direction from the air guiding port 125 to the center of the air guiding channel 122. The first air guiding baffle 1221 extending obliquely upward in the direction from the air guiding port 125 to the center of the air guiding channel 122 can collect and guide the condensed water in the air guiding channel 122 to flow along the upper surface of the first air guiding baffle 1221, and reduce or avoid problems such as short - circuit of other components in the air outlet channel 121 caused by the direct inflow of the condensed water in the air guiding channel 122 into the air outlet channel 121.
[0108] For example, the air conditioner has a draft-free mode. When the air conditioner is in the draft-free mode and the air deflector 4 is in the closed position and the communication port 123 is in the open position, part of the air flow in the air outlet channel 121 blows out into the room through the ventilation holes on the air deflector 4. Since the wind pressure in the air outlet channel 121 is relatively high at this time, another part of the air flow in the air outlet channel 121 can also flow into the air guiding channel 122 through the communication port 123 and then blows out through the air guiding port 125 communicated with the air guiding channel 122. By the first air guiding baffle 1221 extending obliquely upward in the direction from the air guiding port 125 to the center of the air guiding channel 122, the condensed water in the air guiding channel 122 can fall downward onto the first air guiding baffle 1221, reducing the possibility of water directly flowing into the air outlet channel 121.
[0109] Referring to Figure 28 , according to some embodiments of the present invention, the height difference w4 between the highest end and the lowest end of the first air guiding baffle 1221 is 10 mm to 15 mm. For example, the height difference w4 between the highest end and the lowest end of the first air guiding baffle 1221 can be 10 mm, 12 mm, 13 mm, 14 mm, 15 mm, etc. By the height difference w4 between the highest end and the lowest end of the first air guiding baffle 1221 being not less than 10 mm, the first air guiding baffle 1221 can extend obliquely upward in the direction from the air guiding port 125 to the center of the air guiding channel 122, and thus the condensed water in the air guiding channel 122 can be collected and guided to flow along the upper surface of the first air guiding baffle 1221, reducing or avoiding problems such as short circuits of other components in the air outlet channel 121 due to the condensed water in the air guiding channel 122 directly flowing into the air outlet channel 121; by the height difference w4 between the highest end and the lowest end of the first air guiding baffle 1221 being not greater than 15 mm, the first air guiding baffle 1221 and the second air guiding baffle 1222 can effectively separate the air outlet channel 121 and the air guiding channel 122, and thus reduce or avoid the possibility that the heat-exchanged air flow in the air outlet channel 121 flows into the air guiding channel 122 through the first air guiding baffle 1221 due to the excessive height difference between the highest end and the lowest end of the first air guiding baffle 1221.
[0110] By the height difference w4 between the highest end and the lowest end of the first air guiding baffle 1221 being 10 mm to 15 mm, the first air guiding baffle 1221 can extend obliquely upward in the direction from the air guiding port 125 to the center of the air guiding channel 122 to collect and guide the condensed water in the air guiding channel 122 to flow along the upper surface of the first air guiding baffle 1221; and it can also reduce or avoid the possibility that the heat-exchanged air flow in the air outlet channel 121 flows into the air guiding channel 122 through the first air guiding baffle 1221 due to the excessive height difference between the highest end and the lowest end of the first air guiding baffle 1221.
[0111] Referring to Figure 10 andFigure 21 and Figure 25 According to some embodiments of the present utility model, a wind guiding grille 1251 is provided at the air inlet 125, and the first wind guiding baffle 1221 is connected to the wind guiding grille 1251. By providing the wind guiding grille 1251 at the air inlet 125, the wind guiding grille 1251 can improve the structural strength of the part of the casing member 1 near the air inlet 125; and, since the first wind guiding baffle 1221 is connected to the wind guiding grille 1251, the wind guiding grille 1251 can play a role in protecting and supporting the first wind guiding baffle 1221, reducing the extrusion or abrasion of the first wind guiding baffle 1221 by external forces.
[0112] Referring to Figures 21 - 23 According to some embodiments of the present utility model, there are two air inlets 125, and the two air inlets 125 are located on the left and right sides of the air guiding channel 122. The two air inlets 125 being located on the left and right sides of the air guiding channel 122 can increase the air guiding area of the air conditioner, and further enable the normal-temperature air to enter the air guiding channel 122 more smoothly through the air inlets 125, thereby improving the mixing effect of the air flow in the air outlet channel 121, effectively adjusting the air outlet temperature at the air outlet 124, making the air outlet temperature more comfortable, and improving the user experience.
[0113] There are multiple wind guiding baffles, and the multiple wind guiding baffles include a first wind guiding baffle 1221 and a second wind guiding baffle 1222. The second wind guiding baffle 1222 is located below the first wind guiding baffle 1221. The projection of the first wind guiding baffle 1221 on the horizontal plane is the first projection, and the projection of the second wind guiding baffle 1222 on the horizontal plane is the second projection. The second projection is located between the first projections on the left and right sides. In the left-right direction, the first wind guiding baffle 1221 and the second wind guiding baffle 1222 can be located at different height positions, and the first wind guiding baffle 1221 and the second wind guiding baffle 1222 are arranged at intervals, thereby forming an effective local negative pressure area between the first wind guiding baffle 1221 and the second wind guiding baffle 1222, so that more normal-temperature air can be attracted to enter the air guiding channel 122 through the air inlets 125; and, since the second wind guiding baffle 1222 is located between the first wind guiding baffles 1221 on the left and right sides and the second wind guiding baffle 1222 is located below the first wind guiding baffle 1221, the normal-temperature air in the air guiding channel 122 can be guided to the communication port 123 by the second wind guiding baffle 1222 after passing through the first wind guiding baffle 1221, so that the normal-temperature air flows into the air outlet channel 121 through the communication port 123 and is mixed with the heat-exchanged air flow.
[0114] Referring to Figure 20 and Figure 22 and Figure 23, according to some embodiments of the present utility model, an air guiding valve 1231 for opening and closing the communication port 123 is provided at the communication port 123. By controlling the opening or closing of the communication port 123 through the air guiding valve 1231, intelligent control of the air guiding function of the air conditioner can be achieved, which is beneficial to improving the user experience.
[0115] Refer to Figure 20 , Figure 22 and Figure 23 , according to some embodiments of the present utility model, the air guiding valve 1231 is rotatable to open and close the communication port 123. For example, by adjusting the rotation angle of the air guiding valve 1231, the flow direction of the air flow at the communication port 123 can be guided.
[0116] Refer to Figure 20 , Figure 22 and Figure 23 , according to some embodiments of the present utility model, the rotation axis of the air guiding valve 1231 extends in the left - right direction, and the air guiding valve 1231 rotates in the up - down direction to open and close the communication port 123.
[0117] Refer to Figure 20 , Figure 22 and Figure 23 , according to some embodiments of the present utility model, the motor for driving the air guiding valve 1231 is a valve motor. The valve motor is installed on the front shell component 12 and the valve motor is located outside the air guiding channel 122. The valve motor is connected to the air guiding valve 1231. The valve plate motor 1233 is connected to the air guiding valve 1231 and can drive the air guiding valve 1231 to rotate to open and close the communication port 123. And by locating the valve plate motor 1233 outside the air guiding channel 122, the space inside the front shell component 12 can be fully utilized, avoiding the installation of the valve plate motor 1233 from occupying the space in the air guiding channel 122, so that the gas in the air guiding channel 122 can flow smoothly.
[0118] Refer to Figure 15 , Figure 22 and Figure 28, according to some embodiments of the present utility model, there are multiple air guiding baffles, and the multiple air guiding baffles include a first air guiding baffle 1221 and a second air guiding baffle 1222. The second air guiding baffle 1222 is located below the first air guiding baffle 1221, and the second air guiding baffle 1222 and the inner wall of the air guiding channel 122 define a communication port 123. The second air guiding baffle 1222 being located below the first air guiding baffle 1221 can form a local negative pressure area between the second air guiding baffle 1222 and the first air guiding baffle 1221, which can play a guiding role for the normal temperature air in the air guiding channel 122. Moreover, the second air guiding baffle 1222 and the inner wall of the air guiding channel 122 define a communication port 123, attracting the normal temperature air to enter the air guiding channel 122 through the air inlet 125 and flow towards the second air guiding baffle 1222, and the normal temperature air flowing near the second air guiding baffle 1222 can enter the air outlet channel 121 through the communication port 123 and mix with the air flow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121. By the second air guiding baffle 1222 being located below the first air guiding baffle 1221 and the second air guiding baffle 1222 and the inner wall of the air guiding channel 122 defining a communication port 123, it can play a guiding role for the normal temperature air in the air guiding channel 122, enabling the normal temperature air to be effectively guided to the communication port 123 and then enter the air outlet channel 121 through the communication port 123 and mix with the air flow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121.
[0119] Referring to Figure 20 , according to some embodiments of the present utility model, when the air guiding valve 1231 is in a position closing the communication port 123, the projection of the second air guiding baffle 1222 on the horizontal plane is the second projection, and the projection of the air guiding valve 1231 on the horizontal plane is the third projection. The horizontal distance w5 between the third projection and the second projection is 1 mm to 8 mm. For example, the horizontal distance w5 between the third projection and the second projection can be 1 mm, 3 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 8 mm, etc. By the horizontal distance w5 between the third projection and the second projection being not less than 1 mm, it can enable the air guiding valve 1231 to rotate smoothly, reducing or avoiding the possibility of the air guiding valve 1231 colliding with the second air guiding baffle 1222 during rotation; by the horizontal distance w5 between the third projection and the second projection being not greater than 8 mm, when the air guiding valve 1231 is in a position closing the communication port 123, the second air guiding baffle 1222 and the air guiding valve 1231 can effectively separate the air guiding channel 122 and the air outlet channel 121, reducing or avoiding the air flow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121 from entering the air guiding channel 122 through the gap between the second air guiding baffle 1222 and the air guiding valve 1231 due to the excessive gap between the second air guiding baffle 1222 and the air guiding valve 1231.
[0120] By setting the horizontal distance w5 between the third projection and the second projection to be 1 mm to 8 mm, the air guiding valve 1231 can rotate smoothly, reducing or avoiding the possibility of the air guiding valve 1231 colliding with the second air guiding baffle 1222 during rotation. Moreover, when the air guiding valve 1231 is in the position of closing the communication port 123, the second air guiding baffle 1222 and the air guiding valve 1231 can effectively separate the air guiding channel 122 from the air outlet channel 121, reducing or avoiding the air flow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121 from entering the air guiding channel 122 through the gap between the second air guiding baffle 1222 and the air guiding valve 1231.
[0121] Referring to Figure 14 and Figure 15 , according to some embodiments of the present invention, an air flow inlet 133 communicating with the air outlet channel 121 is formed at the rear side of the front shell component 12. When the air guiding valve 1231 is in the position of opening the communication port 123, the distance w6 in the vertical direction between the bottom surface of the air guiding valve 1231 and the upper edge of the air flow inlet 133 is not less than 22 mm. For example, when the air guiding valve 1231 is in the position of opening the communication port 123, the distance w6 in the vertical direction between the bottom surface of the air guiding valve 1231 and the upper edge of the air flow inlet 133 can be 22 mm, 25 mm, 30 mm, 35 mm, 40 mm, etc. By setting the distance w6 in the vertical direction between the bottom surface of the air guiding valve 1231 and the upper edge of the air flow inlet 133 to be not less than 22 mm, it can reduce or avoid the air flow after heat exchange in the air duct 311 flowing directly into the air guiding channel 122 through the communication port 123 at the air guiding valve 1231 when flowing towards the air outlet channel 121 through the air flow inlet 133, and can make the normal temperature air in the air guiding channel 122 enter the air outlet channel 121 downward through the communication port 123 and fully mix with the air flow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121, so that the air flow flowing out from the air outlet 124 is more comfortable.
[0122] Referring to Figure 14 and Figure 15, according to some embodiments of the present utility model, the air induction channel 122 has a first side wall 1223 and a second side wall 1224 which are oppositely arranged in the front-rear direction. The second air induction baffle 1222 is connected to the first side wall 1223, and the air induction valve 1231 is located between the second air induction baffle 1222 and the second side wall 1224. Wherein, when the air induction valve 1231 is located at the position of opening the communication port 123, the horizontal distance w7 between the air induction valve 1231 and the second side wall 1224 is 20 mm to 40 mm. For example, when the air induction valve 1231 is located at the position of opening the communication port 123, the horizontal distance w7 between the air induction valve 1231 and the second side wall 1224 can be 20 mm, 25 mm, 30 mm, 35 mm, 40 mm, etc. When the air induction valve 1231 is located at the position of opening the communication port 123, since the second air induction baffle 1222 and the second side wall 1224 define the communication port 123, by making the horizontal distance w7 between the air induction valve 1231 and the second side wall 1224 not less than 20 mm, the normal temperature air in the air induction channel 122 can smoothly enter the air outlet channel 121 through the communication port 123; by making the horizontal distance w7 between the air induction valve 1231 and the second side wall 1224 not greater than 40 mm, an effective negative pressure area can be formed near the second air induction baffle 1222 to attract more normal temperature air into the air outlet channel 121, and prevent the negative pressure near the second air induction baffle 1222 from being too small and ineffective due to the excessive horizontal distance between the air induction valve 1231 and the second side wall 1224.
[0123] When the air induction valve 1231 is located at the position of opening the communication port 123, by making the horizontal distance w7 between the air induction valve 1231 and the second side wall 1224 be 20 mm to 40 mm, the normal temperature air in the air induction channel 122 can smoothly enter the air outlet channel 121 through the communication port 123, and an effective negative pressure area can be formed near the second air induction baffle 1222 to attract more normal temperature air into the air outlet channel 121.
[0124] Refer to Figure 21 , Figure 22 and Figure 25, according to some embodiments of the present utility model, the air guiding valve 1231 is located on the side of the second air guiding baffle 1222 away from the air outlet 124, so that the introduced indoor normal temperature air can be fully mixed with the air flow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121 before being blown out. For example, if the air guiding valve 1231 is located on the side of the second air guiding baffle 1222 close to the air outlet 124, at this time, the air guiding valve 1231 is relatively close to the air outlet 124. When the air guiding valve 1231 is in the open position, the normal temperature air flowing into the air outlet channel 121 through the communication port 123 is relatively close to the air outlet 124, making it impossible for the normal temperature air and the heat exchange air in the air outlet channel 121 to be well mixed. By locating the air guiding valve 1231 on the side of the second air guiding baffle 1222 away from the air outlet 124, the introduced indoor normal temperature air can be made farther away from the air outlet 124. The introduced normal temperature air can be fully mixed with the heat exchange air in the air outlet channel 121 before being blown out, making the air flow at the air outlet 124 more comfortable.
[0125] Refer to Figure 13 , Figure 15 and Figure 24 , according to some embodiments of the present utility model, the rear end part of the front shell component 12 includes a first rear end part 128 and a second rear end part 129. The first rear end part 128 is located above the second rear end part 129. The first rear end part 128 is located at the rear side of the air guiding channel 122 and the first rear end part 128 is closed. The second rear end part 129 is located at the rear side of the air outlet channel 121 and the second rear end part 129 is open. The first rear end part 128 is located at the rear side of the air guiding channel 122 and the first rear end part 128 is closed, which can close the rear side of the air guiding channel 122, prevent the normal temperature air in the air guiding channel 122 from flowing to the rear side of the front shell component 12 and mixing with the air flow after heat exchange in the air duct 311, reduce or avoid the possibility of the air flow after heat exchange in the air duct 311 flowing into the air guiding channel 122, and make the normal temperature air in the air guiding channel 122 flow through the communication port 123 to the air outlet channel 121 as much as possible to mix with the air flow after heat exchange in the air outlet channel 121, so as to make the air flow at the air outlet 124 more comfortable. The second rear end part 129 is located at the rear side of the air outlet channel 121 and the second rear end part 129 is open, which can make the rear side of the air outlet channel 121 open, facilitate the connection between the air outlet channel 121 and the air duct 311, so that the air flow after heat exchange in the air duct 311 can smoothly flow into the air outlet channel 121 and then be discharged to the indoor through the air outlet 124.
[0126] Refer to Figure 17 , Figure 22 and Figure 27, according to some embodiments of the present utility model, the front housing component 12 includes a front air outlet frame 126, a rear air outlet frame 127 and a front panel 132.

The front panel 132 being detachably connected to the front side of the front air outlet frame 126 facilitates the maintenance or replacement of the front panel 132, and the air outlet 124 is defined between the front panel 132 and the front air outlet frame 126. For example, there are two air outlets 124 spaced left and right, and the two air outlets 124 can be respectively located on the left and right sides of the front panel 132. The rear side of the front air outlet frame 126 is open, the rear side of the rear air outlet frame 127 is open, and the front air outlet frame 126 and the rear air outlet frame 127 jointly define the air outlet channel 121, which enables the rear side of the air outlet channel 121 to be open, facilitating the connection of the air outlet channel 121 to the air duct 311, so that the air flow heated in the air duct 311 flows through the air outlet channel 121 to the air outlet 124.
[0127] The front housing component 12 further includes a front sealing plate 130 and a rear sealing plate 131. The rear sealing plate 131 is connected to the rear end of the rear air outlet frame 127, and the front sealing plate 130 is connected to the front end of the front air outlet frame 126 and the front sealing plate 130 is located above the front panel 132.

The rear sealing plate 131 is connected to the rear end of the rear air outlet frame 127, and the front sealing plate 130 is connected to the front end of the front air outlet frame 126. The rear sealing plate 131 can seal the rear side of the air guiding channel 122, and the front sealing plate 130 can seal the front side of the air guiding channel 122. By jointly defining the air guiding channel 122 by the front sealing plate 130, the rear sealing plate 131, the rear air outlet frame 127 and the front air outlet frame 126, the possibility that the air flow heated in the air duct 311 flows into the air guiding channel 122 through the rear end of the rear air outlet frame 127 or the air flow heated in the air outlet channel 121 flows into the air guiding channel 122 through the front end of the front air outlet frame 126 can be reduced or avoided, and the normal temperature air in the air guiding channel 122 can flow into the air outlet channel 121 through the communication port 123 as much as possible to mix with the air flow heated in the air outlet channel 121, so that the air flow at the air outlet 124 is more comfortable.

[0131] Optionally, the front sealing plate 130 and the front air outlet frame 126 are integrally formed; and, the rear sealing plate 131 and the rear air outlet frame 127 are integrally formed; this can improve the overall structural strength of the rear sealing plate 131 and the rear air outlet frame 127 and the overall structural strength of the front sealing plate 130 and the front air outlet frame 126, and can eliminate the assembly process between the rear sealing plate 131 and the rear air outlet frame 127 and the assembly process between the front sealing plate 130 and the front air outlet frame 126.
[0132] Referring to Figure 15 、 Figure 16 and Figure 23 According to some embodiments of the present invention, an installation opening is formed at the rear side of the rear air outlet frame 127, at least part of the installation opening corresponds to and communicates with the air guiding channel 122, and a detachable cover plate is provided at the installation opening. The installation opening can facilitate the installation of the air guiding valve 1231 on the front housing component 12. By providing a detachable air outlet frame side plate at the installation opening, it can facilitate the installation or disassembly of the air outlet frame side plate at the installation opening, thereby facilitating the installation or disassembly of the air guiding valve 1231 on the front housing component 12 through the installation opening; and, since the installation opening communicates with the air guiding channel 122, by providing an air outlet frame side plate at the installation opening, the installation opening can be in a closed structure, which can reduce or avoid the possibility of the normal-temperature air in the air guiding channel 122 leaking through the installation opening.
[0133] Among them, at least part of the installation opening corresponding to and communicating with the air guiding channel 122 may include the following situations: for example, it may be that the entire installation opening corresponds to and communicates with the air guiding channel 122; for another example, it may be that a part of the installation opening corresponds to and communicates with the air guiding channel 122.
[0134] Referring to Figure 19 and Figure 20, according to some embodiments of the present utility model, an air guiding valve 1231 for opening and closing the communication port 123 is provided at the communication port 123. The air guiding valve 1231 is installed on the cover plate. By controlling the opening or closing of the communication port 123 through the air guiding valve 1231, the intelligent control of the air guiding function of the air conditioner can be realized, which is beneficial to improving the user experience. Moreover, the air guiding valve 1231 is installed on the cover plate, and the cover plate is detachably installed at the installation port, which is convenient for the maintenance or replacement of the air guiding valve 1231 on the front shell component 12.
[0135] Refer to Figure 26 , Figure 28 and Figure 29 , according to some embodiments of the present utility model, the air guiding openings 125 are located on the left and right sides of the air guiding channel 122. There are two air guiding openings 125 arranged at intervals left and right. The two air guiding openings 125 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the air guiding channel 122, which can increase the air guiding area of the air conditioner, and then enable the normal temperature air outside the casing component 1 to flow more smoothly into the air guiding channel 122 through the air guiding openings 125.
[0136] Refer to Figure 26 and Figure 28 , according to some embodiments of the present utility model, the air guiding opening 125 is located directly above the air outlet 124. The air conditioner further includes a wind deflector 4. The wind deflector 4 is used to open and close the air outlet 124 and the air guiding opening 125. The wind deflector 4 can guide the airflow flowing out through the air outlet 124 and the airflow flowing in or out through the air guiding opening 125. For example, the wind deflector 4 is rotatably arranged at the air outlet 124 and the air guiding opening 125. By adjusting the rotation amplitude of the wind deflector 4, the air outlet 124 can be opened or closed, and the direction of the airflow at the air outlet 124 and the air guiding opening 125 can also be adjusted.
[0137] Refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 26, According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the air deflector 4 includes a first air deflector portion 41 and a second air deflector portion 42. The second air deflector portion 42 is connected to the upper side of the first air deflector portion 41. The first air deflector portion 41 is used to open and close the air outlet 124, and the second air deflector portion 42 is used to open and close the air induction port 125. A plurality of ventilation holes are formed in both the first air deflector portion 41 and the second air deflector portion 42. The ventilation holes penetrate through the air deflector 4 along the thickness direction of the air deflector 4. The air conditioner has a no-wind feeling mode. In the no-wind feeling mode, the air deflector 4 closes the air outlet 124 and the air induction port 125. When the air conditioner is in the no-wind feeling mode, the air deflector 4 is in the closed position. The air flows into the housing component 1 through the air inlet 111 and flows towards the heat exchanger assembly 2. The air after heat exchange by the heat exchanger assembly 2 can be blown out through the ventilation holes on the air deflector 4, which can make the air blown out from the air outlet 124 softer, thereby improving the user experience.
[0138] In addition, when the air conditioner is in the no-wind feeling mode, when the air deflector 4 is in the closed position and the communication port 123 is in the open position, part of the air flow in the air outlet passage 121 is blown out to the room through the ventilation holes on the air deflector 4. Since the air pressure in the air outlet passage 121 is relatively high at this time, another part of the air flow in the air outlet passage 121 can also flow into the air induction passage 122 through the communication port 123 and is then blown out through the air induction port 125 communicated with the air induction passage 122, which can increase the air outlet area of the air conditioner in the no-wind feeling mode, quickly meet the required cooling / heating effect of the user, and further improve the user experience.
[0139] Optionally, there are two air outlets 124 arranged at intervals left and right. There are two air deflectors 4, and the two air deflectors 4 respectively correspond to the two air outlets 124. The air induction ports 125 are located on the left and right sides of the air induction passage 122. The left air induction port 125 is directly above the left air outlet 124. The left air deflector 4 is used to open and close the left air outlet 124 and the air induction port 125. The right air induction port 125 is directly above the right air outlet 124. The right air deflector 4 is used to open and close the right air outlet 124 and the air induction port 125.

[0147] The air deflector 4 includes a first air deflector portion 41 and a second air deflector portion 42. The second air deflector portion 42 is connected to the upper side of the first air deflector portion 41. The first air deflector portion 41 is used to open and close the air outlet 124, and the second air deflector portion 42 is used to open and close the air inlet 125.

In the draft-free mode, the air deflector 4 closes the air outlet 124 and the air inlet 125.
[0148] At least one induced air baffle is provided in the induced air passage 122. The induced air baffle is connected to the front shell component 12. The induced air baffle is a plurality of spaced-apart ones. The plurality of induced air baffles include a first induced air baffle 1221 and a second induced air baffle 1222. The first induced air baffle 1221 is adjacent to the air inlet 125. The second induced air baffle 1222 is located below the first induced air baffle 1221 and defines the communication port 123 with the inner wall of the induced air passage 122. The projection of the first induced air baffle 1221 on the horizontal plane is the first projection, and the projection of the second induced air baffle 1222 on the horizontal plane is the second projection. The second projection is located between the first projections on the left and right sides. At least part of the induced air baffles are arranged at intervals in the up-down direction. The distance between the upper edge of the air flow inlet 133 and the lowermost induced air baffle in the up-down direction is 50 mm to 70 mm. In the left-right direction, the distance between two adjacent induced air baffles in the up-down direction is 20 mm to 50 mm, and the horizontal distance between the projections of two adjacent induced air baffles on the horizontal plane is 2 mm to 12 mm.
[0149] The first induced air baffle 1221 is connected to the air inlet grille 1251. The first induced air baffle 1221 extends obliquely upward in the direction from the air inlet 125 to the center of the induced air passage 122. The height difference between the highest end and the lowest end of the first induced air baffle 1221 is 10 mm to 15 mm.
[0150] The air guiding channel 122 has a first side wall 1223 and a second side wall 1224 that are oppositely arranged in the front-rear direction. The second air guiding baffle 1222 is connected to the first side wall 1223.

Among them, when the air guiding valve 1231 is located at the position of opening the communication port 123, the horizontal distance between the air guiding valve 1231 and the second side wall 1224 is 20 mm to 40 mm, and the vertical distance between the bottom surface of the air guiding valve 1231 and the upper edge of the air flow inlet 133 is not less than 22 mm.

The horizontal distance between the third projection and the second projection is 1 mm to 8 mm.
[0152] For example, when the air outlet 124 and the air inlet 125 are in the open state and the air conditioner is in the cooling mode, the air wheel 32 can drive the air flow to enter the rear housing component 11 through the air inlet 111 and flow towards the heat exchanger assembly 2. The air after being heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 can flow through the air duct 311 in the air duct volute 31 to the air outlet channel 121, and then be blown out to the room through the air outlet 124. At this time, there is a high-speed flowing gas flowing out at the air outlet 124, which can form a negative pressure area near the air outlet channel 121. For example, it can make the negative pressure at the air guiding baffle larger, so that more ambient-temperature air outside the housing component 1 can be introduced into the air guiding channel 122 through the air inlet 125, flow into the air outlet channel 121 through the communication port 123, and be mixed with the relatively lower-temperature air after being heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 in the air outlet channel 121, and then be sent out through the air outlet 124. The ambient-temperature air introduced through the air inlet 125 and the air guiding channel 122 has a relatively higher temperature compared to the air after being heat-exchanged. The temperature of the air after being heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 is relatively lower. The relatively lower-temperature air after being heat-exchanged can be mixed with the introduced ambient-temperature air to make the air flow temperature at the air outlet 124 more comfortable.
[0153] For another example, when the air outlet 124 and the air induction port 125 are in the open state and the air conditioner is in the heating mode, the air wheel 32 can drive the air flow to enter the rear housing component 11 through the air inlet 111 and flow towards the heat exchanger assembly 2. The air after being heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 can flow towards the air outlet passage 121 through the air passage 311 in the air duct volute 31, and then be blown out to the room through the air outlet 124. At this time, there is a high-speed flowing gas flowing out at the air outlet 124, which can form a negative pressure area near the air outlet passage 121. For example, the negative pressure at the air induction baffle can be made larger, so that more ambient air outside the housing component 1 enters the air induction passage 122 through the air induction port 125, flows into the air outlet passage 121 through the communication port 123, mixes with the air that has been heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 in the air outlet passage 121, and then is sent out through the air outlet 124. The ambient air introduced through the air induction port 125 and the air induction passage 122 has a relatively higher temperature compared to the air after heat exchange. The temperature of the air after being heat-exchanged by the heat exchange component is relatively lower. The relatively lower-temperature air after heat exchange can be mixed with the introduced ambient air to make the air flow temperature at the air outlet 124 more comfortable.
[0154] For another example, when the air outlet 124 is in the closed state, the air induction port 125 is in the open state and the air conditioner is operating, the air wheel 32 can drive the air flow to enter the rear housing component 11 through the air inlet 111 and flow towards the heat exchanger assembly 2. The air after being heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger assembly 2 can flow towards the air outlet passage 121 through the air passage 311 in the air duct volute 31. The air outlet passage 121 and the air induction passage 122 are connected through the communication port 123. The air in the air outlet passage 121 can flow into the air induction passage 122 through the communication port 123, and then flow out to the room through the air induction port 125 to cool or heat the room. Since the air induction port 125 is located above the air outlet passage 121 and also above the air outlet 124, the position of the air outlet is relatively high, which can reduce the discomfort caused by direct blowing, thereby improving the user experience.
