[0039] The indoor unit of the air conditioner according to the embodiment of the present application, the front shell of its housing 1 is not only provided with an air outlet 11, but also provided with an assembly hole 12. The driving device 3 and the door panel 2 can be respectively assembled on the inner and outer sides of the housing 1 (such as: the front and rear sides of the front shell), and the power output member 33 of the driving device 3 can pass through the assembly hole 12 of the housing 1 so as to be connected to the door panel 2. As Figure 1 shown, when the indoor unit of the air conditioner is in the shutdown or standby state, the door panel 2 closes the air outlet 11 to prevent dust, insects, etc. from entering the interior of the indoor unit of the air conditioner from the air outlet 11, and can improve the integrity of the appearance; as Figure 2 and Figure 5 shown, when the indoor unit of the air conditioner is turned on, the driving device 3 starts to work, the power output member 33 can move translationally, and drives the door panel 2 to slide to open the air outlet 11 so that the cold air or hot air of the indoor unit of the air conditioner can be discharged from the air outlet 11.

[0040] In order to further improve the aesthetics of the indoor unit of the air conditioner and avoid the assembly hole 12 being exposed to form a black leakage hole or pose a safety hazard, the indoor unit of the air conditioner according to the embodiment of the present application is also provided with a decorative plate 4. The decorative plate 4 is installed on the power output member 33, and an elastic member 5 is provided between the decorative plate 4 and the power output member 33. During the process of the door panel 2 sliding to open the air outlet 11, the decorative plate 4 can move to the assembly hole 12 under the drive of the power output member 33, and can at least partially enter the assembly hole 12 under the action of the elastic member 5 to block the assembly hole 12, so as to solve the problems such as the formation of a black leakage hole or a safety hazard at the assembly hole 12 after the door panel 2 is opened, and improve the appearance integrity and aesthetics of the product after the door panel 2 is opened.

[0041] In some exemplary embodiments, as Figures 3-6 shown, the first end of the decorative plate 4 is rotatably connected to the power output member 33, the elastic member 5 is arranged between the second end of the decorative plate 4 and the power output member 33, and the sliding direction when the door panel 2 opens the air outlet 11 is from the second end of the decorative plate 4 to the first end.

[0042] The first end of the decorative plate 4 is rotatably connected to the power output member 33, and an elastic member 5 is provided between the second end of the decorative plate 4 and the power output member 33, so that the decorative plate 4 can rotate around its first end under the action of the elastic member 5. During the process of the door panel 2 sliding along the direction from the second end of the decorative plate 4 to the first end to open the air outlet 11, the decorative plate 4 can not only move to the assembly hole 12 under the drive of the power output member 33, but also rotate under the action of the elastic member 5, so that at least part of the decorative plate 4 enters the assembly hole 12 to block the assembly hole 12.

[0043] In some exemplary embodiments, asFigure 5 and Figure 6 As shown in Figure 6 , the housing 1 is provided with a first abutting inclined surface 13, the decorative plate 4 is arranged to be able to withdraw from the assembly hole 12 under the extrusion of the first abutting inclined surface 13 during the process of the door panel 2 sliding to close the air outlet 11, and the door panel 2 is arranged to be able to block the assembly hole 12 when the door panel 2 closes the air outlet 11.

[0044] Specifically, during the process of the door panel 2 sliding to close the air outlet 11, the decorative plate 4 can not only move translationally driven by the power output member 33, but also rotate under the extrusion of the first abutting inclined surface 13, so that the decorative plate 4 can perform translational motion and rotational motion simultaneously, causing the decorative plate 4 to gradually withdraw from the assembly hole 12, and the decorative plate 4 and the assembly hole 12 are gradually staggered in the sliding direction of the door panel 2. When the door panel 2 completely closes the air outlet 11, the decorative plate 4 can completely withdraw from the assembly hole 12. At this time, the door panel 2 can block the assembly hole 12, ensuring the appearance integrity and beauty of the product after the door panel 2 is closed.

[0045] In some exemplary embodiments, as Figures 4-6 shown, the first abutting inclined surface 13 is arranged on the side wall surface of the assembly hole 12, the decorative plate 4 is provided with a second abutting inclined surface 41, the inclination directions and inclination angles of the first abutting inclined surface 13 and the second abutting inclined surface 41 are the same, and the first abutting inclined surface 13 is arranged to be able to contact the second abutting inclined surface 41 when the door panel 2 opens the air outlet 11 (as Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown). Among them, the second abutting inclined surface 41 is arranged at the second end of the side surface of the decorative plate 4 facing the door panel 2 (such as: the front side surface of the decorative plate 4), and the second abutting inclined surface 41 is arranged to incline towards the side close to the door panel 2 along the direction from the second end to the first end of the decorative plate 4.

[0046] The side wall surface of the assembly hole 12 is provided with a first abutting inclined surface 13, the second end of the front side surface of the decorative plate 4 is provided with a second abutting inclined surface 41, and the inclination directions and inclination angles of the first abutting inclined surface 13 and the second abutting inclined surface 41 are the same. Among them, the first abutting inclined surface 13 and the second abutting inclined surface 41 can both incline towards the side close to the door panel 2 along the direction from the second end to the first end of the decorative plate 4. When the door panel 2 opens the air outlet 11, the first abutting inclined surface 13 can contact the second abutting inclined surface 41. At this time, the decorative plate 4 can be stopped and limited by the contact between the first abutting inclined surface 13 and the second abutting inclined surface 41 to prevent the decorative plate 4 from protruding from the outer surface of the housing 1; during the process of the door panel 2 sliding along the direction from the first end to the second end of the decorative plate 4 to close the air outlet 11, the power output member 33 drives the decorative plate 4 to move, and under the extrusion between the first abutting inclined surface 13 and the second abutting inclined surface 41, the decorative plate 4 can rotate around its first end, so that the decorative plate 4 can gradually withdraw from the assembly hole 12.

When the door panel 2 fully opens the air outlet 11, the decorative surface 42 on the front side of the decorative plate 4 can be flush with the front surface of the front shell, so as to enhance the appearance integrity and aesthetics of the product after the door panel 2 is opened.

[0049] In some exemplary embodiments, as Figures 4-6 shown, a receiving groove 331 is provided on the side of the power output member 33 facing the door panel 2 (e.g., the front side of the power output member 33). The second end of the decorative plate 4 is configured to be disengaged from the receiving groove 331 when the door panel 2 opens the air outlet 11, and to be received in the receiving groove 331 when the door panel 2 closes the air outlet 11.

[0050] The front side of the power output member 33 is provided with a receiving groove 331, and the opening of the receiving groove 331 faces forward. When the door panel 2 fully closes the air outlet 11, the decorative plate 4 can be received in the receiving groove 331, and the decorative plate 4 does not need to block the assembly hole 12 at this time; when the door panel 2 fully opens the air outlet 11, the second end of the decorative plate 4 can be rotated out of the receiving groove 331 so that the decorative plate 4 blocks the assembly hole 12. The provision of the receiving groove 331 makes the structure of the driving device 3 compact and avoids interference between the decorative plate 4 and other components.

[0051] In some exemplary embodiments, as Figures 4-6 shown, shaft holes 332 are provided on both the first groove wall and the second groove wall of the receiving groove 331 that are oppositely arranged. A rotating shaft portion 43 is provided at the first end of the decorative plate 4, and the rotating shaft portion 43 is rotatably mounted to the shaft holes 332.
