DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0022] The following describes the specific embodiments of the present disclosure in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for explaining and understanding the present disclosure, and are not used to limit the present disclosure.

[0023] In the present disclosure, unless otherwise stated, the orientation terms such as "front, rear, left, and right" are defined based on the Figure 1 XY coordinate system in [reference]. Specifically, the X direction refers to the left - right direction, and the side pointed by the arrow is the left, and vice versa for the right; the Y direction refers to the front - rear direction, and the side pointed by the arrow is the front, and vice versa for the rear. The up - down direction can correspond to the gravity direction of the shunt member and the indoor unit. "Inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside of the contour of each component. "Upstream and downstream" are defined based on the flow direction of the air flow. The terms "first and second" are used to distinguish one element from another, and do not have sequentiality and importance. In addition, when the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, the same reference numerals in different drawings represent the same or similar elements, and the present disclosure will not elaborate on this.

[0024] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, an indoor unit is provided. As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the indoor unit includes an air duct structure 1 and an air outlet structure 2. The air duct structure 1 has an air guiding channel 11, and the air outlet structure 2 is connected to the downstream of the air duct structure 1 and has an air outlet channel 21. The indoor unit further includes a finger guard net 3 disposed between the air duct structure 1 and the air outlet structure 2, and the finger guard net 3 is integrally formed with the air duct structure 1, and / or the indoor unit further includes a shunt rib 4 disposed between the air duct structure 1 and the air outlet structure 2, and the shunt rib 4 is integrally formed with the air duct structure 1.

[0025] Through the above - mentioned technical solution, in the indoor unit provided by the present disclosure, by integrally forming the finger guard net 3 with the air duct structure 1, the connection between the finger guard net 3 and the air duct structure 1 can be omitted, reducing the number of components of the indoor unit. Thus, it is beneficial to simplify the assembly steps of the indoor unit. Similarly, by integrally forming the shunt rib 4 with the air duct structure 1, the connection between the shunt rib 4 and the air duct structure 1 can be omitted, reducing the number of components of the indoor unit. Thus, it is beneficial to simplify the assembly steps of the indoor unit. In this way, the indoor unit of the present disclosure has fewer components and higher assembly efficiency.

[0026] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in Figure 1As shown, the air induction channel 11 can extend obliquely from back to front and to the right. The number of air outlet channels 21 can be two. The two air outlet channels 21 include a first air outlet channel 10 and a second air outlet channel 20 disposed on the right side of the first air outlet channel 10. The flow dividing rib 4 can extend obliquely from back to front and to the left. Here, since the air induction channel 11 extends obliquely from back to front and to the right, more air flow blows towards the second air outlet channel 20. By setting the flow dividing rib 4 to extend obliquely from back to front and to the left, the air flow flowing through the flow dividing rib 4 can be blown towards the first air outlet channel 10. Thus, the air output of the first air outlet channel 10 and the second air outlet channel 20 can be balanced, and uniform air output of the two air outlet channels 21 can be achieved. Among them, in some embodiments, refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the flow dividing rib 4 can be configured as an arc-shaped rib, so that it is beneficial to reduce the air volume loss on the flow dividing rib 4. Of course, the flow dividing rib 4 can also be configured in any suitable shape, and the present disclosure does not limit this too much.

[0027] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the finger guard net 3 can include a first net body 31 and a second net body 32 disposed on the right side of the first net body 31. The flow dividing rib 4 has a first connecting portion 41 and a second connecting portion 42. The first connecting portion 41 is connected to the first net body 31, and the second connecting portion 42 is connected to the second net body 32. In this way, it can be avoided that the first net body 31 and the second net body 32 are connected to the same connecting portion on the flow dividing rib 4, resulting in stress concentration at this connecting portion and further causing fracture at this connecting portion. That is to say, connecting the first connecting portion 41 to the first net body 31 and the second connecting portion 42 to the second net body 32 can avoid stress concentration on the flow dividing rib 4.

[0028] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the flow dividing rib 4 can have a front portion 43, a middle portion, and a rear portion connected in sequence. The first connecting portion 41 is configured as the middle portion, and the second connecting portion 42 is configured as the rear portion. Here, the front portion 43 is mainly used to guide the air flow to flow to the left, and connecting the second net body 32 to the rear portion can facilitate the connection between the second net body 32 and the air duct structure 1.

[0029] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the finger guard net 3 can include a first net body 31 and a second net body 32 disposed on the right side of the first net body 31. The first net body 31 and the second net body 32 can be arranged at an angle. In this way, compared with arranging the first net body 31 and the second net body 32 to extend in the same direction, arranging the first net body 31 and the second net body 32 at an angle can increase the resistance of the finger guard net 3 to the load exerted by the air flow and avoid fracture of the first net body 31.

[0030] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1As shown in the figure, the first net body 31 can extend in the left - right direction, and the second net body 32 can extend obliquely from the back to the front and to the left. That is to say, the included angle between the first net body 31 and the second net body 32 can be an obtuse angle. Such a setting facilitates the connection between the second net body 32 on the right side and the air duct structure 1.

[0031] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 1 to 3 As shown in the figure, the first net body 31 has a width in the left - right direction, and the second net body 32 has a width in its inclined direction. Among them, the width of the first net body 31 can be greater than the width of the second net body 32. Here, since the first net body 31 is arranged on the left side and the air guiding channel 11 blows air from the back to the front and to the right, setting the width of the first net body 31 to be the width of the second net body 32 can make more air flow through the flow - dividing rib 4 and blow towards the first air outlet channel 10. Thus, it is beneficial to realize the uniform air outlet of the two air outlet channels 21.

[0032] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, referring to Figures 1 to 3 As shown in the figure, the air duct structure can include a first wall plate 12, a second wall plate 13 and a volute tongue 14. The second wall plate 13 is detachably connected to the volute tongue 14, and the first wall plate 12 is spaced from the second wall plate 13 and the volute tongue 14 to enclose the air guiding channel 11. Among them, the first wall plate 12, the second wall plate 13 and the finger - protecting net 3 can be integrally formed. Here, due to the large curvature change of the volute tongue 14, setting the volute tongue 14 to be detachably connected to the second wall plate 13 can facilitate the integral formation of the first wall plate 12, the second wall plate 13 and the finger - protecting net 3. Then, the volute tongue 14 can be connected to the second wall plate 13 together. Similarly, the above - mentioned setting also facilitates the integral formation of the first wall plate 12, the second wall plate 13 and the flow - dividing rib 4. Then, the volute tongue 14 can be connected to the second wall plate 13 together.

[0033] According to the second aspect of the present disclosure, an air conditioner is provided, including the indoor unit as described above. This air conditioner has all the beneficial effects of the above - mentioned indoor unit, and the present disclosure will not elaborate here.

However, the present disclosure is not limited to the specific details in the above - mentioned embodiments. Within the scope of the technical concept of the present disclosure, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solutions of the present disclosure, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

[0035] In addition, it should be noted that, in the above - described specific embodiments, the various specific technical features described can be combined in any suitable way without contradiction. To avoid unnecessary repetition, the present disclosure will not separately describe various possible combination ways.

[0036] In addition, any combination can be made among various different embodiments of the present disclosure, as long as it does not violate the idea of the present disclosure, and it should also be regarded as the content disclosed by the present disclosure.
