Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air conditioning, in particular to an air conditioner. Background Art

[0002] Some air conditioners on the market have a humidification function. By configuring a humidification component, the air flow passes through the humidification component before flowing into the room, and the moisture provided by the humidification component is blown into the indoor environment.

[0003] In order to ensure that there is enough airflow passing through the humidification component to obtain a better humidification effect, this type of air conditioner usually installs the humidification component in the air duct. When the humidification function is not turned on, the humidification component will also block the air flow path, thereby affecting the air outlet effect of the air conditioner. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model solves the problem that the humidifying component affects the air outlet effect of the air conditioner.

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides an air conditioner, which not only ensures the humidification air volume, but also avoids affecting the normal air outlet effect of the air conditioner.

[0006] The embodiment of the utility model provides a technical solution:

[0007] An air conditioner comprises a body, a mounting bracket and a humidifying assembly, wherein the body comprises a middle frame and a panel, wherein the panel is arranged on the outer surface of the middle frame and has a humidifying window; the mounting bracket is installed on the humidifying window, and the mounting bracket has a hollow frame opposite to the middle frame;

[0008] The humidifying component is installed on the mounting bracket and is located on the side of the hollow skeleton away from the middle frame. The humidifying component and the middle frame are spaced apart in the horizontal direction to form a ventilation cavity connected to the air duct of the body; a clearance groove is provided on the side of the humidifying component close to the middle frame, and the part of the hollow skeleton corresponding to the ventilation cavity is embedded in the clearance groove.

[0009] The air conditioner provided by the embodiment of the present utility model has a humidifying window opened on the panel. The humidifying component is installed on the mounting bracket inside the humidifying window and forms a ventilation cavity communicating with the air duct between the humidifying component and the middle frame, thus avoiding the humidifying component from blocking the normal outflow of the air flow in the air duct from the air outlet on the middle frame, that is, ensuring the normal air outlet effect of the air conditioner. Moreover, since a part of the hollowed-out skeleton on the mounting bracket between the humidifying component and the middle frame corresponding to the ventilation cavity is embedded in the relief groove on the humidifying component, the relief for the ventilation cavity is realized, the space of the ventilation cavity is increased, and the entry of the air flow in the air duct into the ventilation cavity is prevented, so as to obtain sufficient humidifying air volume. Therefore, the air conditioner provided by the present utility model not only ensures the humidifying air volume but also avoids affecting the normal air outlet effect of the air conditioner.

[0010] In an alternative embodiment, the hollowed-out skeleton has a longitudinal beam extending in the vertical direction. The longitudinal beam includes a relief section and a limiting section connected to each other, and the relief section is above the limiting section.

[0011] In the horizontal direction, the relief section is farther from the middle frame than the limiting section. The relief section is embedded in the relief groove, and the limiting section is between the humidifying component and the middle frame.

[0012] The embedding of the relief section into the relief groove realizes the positioning cooperation with the humidifying component and also realizes the relief for the space of the ventilation cavity. The limiting section is between the humidifying component and the middle frame to realize the limitation of the humidifying component.

[0013] In an alternative embodiment, the hollowed-out skeleton further has a cross beam extending in the horizontal direction. The cross beam is connected to the limiting section and is between the humidifying component and the middle frame.

[0014] The connection between the cross beam and the limiting section improves the structural strength of the hollowed-out skeleton. Moreover, the cross beam is outside the ventilation cavity, avoiding occupying the space of the ventilation cavity and realizing the limitation of the humidifying component.

[0015] In an alternative embodiment, the longitudinal beam further includes a transition section. One end of the transition section is connected to the upper end of the cross beam, and the other end of the transition section extends obliquely upward away from the middle frame to be connected to one end of the relief section, and the other end of the relief section extends vertically upward.

[0016] The connection between the relief section and the cross beam through the obliquely extending transition section ensures the structural strength of the hollowed-out skeleton while realizing the relief for the space of the ventilation cavity and ensuring smooth embedding into the relief groove of the humidifying component.

[0017] In an optional embodiment, the mounting bracket further comprises a water replenishment groove and a water receiving groove, the water replenishment groove is connected to the top end of the hollow frame, the water receiving groove is connected to the bottom end of the hollow frame, and the water replenishment groove and the water receiving groove are both located on a side of the hollow frame away from the middle frame;

[0018] The bottom end of the humidifying component is embedded in the water receiving groove, and the humidifying component is used to be forced to slide upward along the yielding section to an unlocked state so as to be separated from the water receiving groove.

[0019] The cooperation between the giving way section and the giving way groove realizes the guidance of the sliding process of the humidification component, ensuring that the humidification component can slide upward smoothly and smoothly to be separated from the water receiving groove, so as to facilitate the subsequent disassembly of the humidification component.

[0020] In an optional embodiment, in the unlocked state, the water receiving groove is embedded in the top of the humidifying component, and the humidifying component is also used to be forced to rotate relative to the yielding section in a vertical plane to a transition state, so that the bottom end of the humidifying component rotates around its top end out of the mounting bracket;

[0021] In the transition state, the humidifying assembly is also used to slide downward along the yielding section under force to separate from the water replenishing tank.

[0022] The cooperation between the giving way section and the giving way groove also realizes the guidance of the bottom end of the humidifying component to rotate out of the mounting bracket, and the guidance of the humidifying component to slide downward and out of the giving way groove during rotation. During the reassembly of the humidifying component, it is only necessary to follow the steps in the opposite direction of the disassembly process. The giving way section also plays a guiding role in the assembly process, which can guide the humidifying component to be disassembled and assembled conveniently and quickly, thereby reducing the difficulty of disassembly and assembly.

[0023] In an optional embodiment, the humidification assembly includes a filter cartridge frame and a humidification component, the give way groove is opened in the filter cartridge frame, the filter cartridge frame has an assembly clamping cavity with a top opening, and the humidification component is installed in the assembly clamping cavity;

[0024] A water replenishment hole communicating with the assembly clamping cavity is provided through the bottom of the water replenishment groove, and a drainage hole communicating with the water receiving groove is provided through the bottom of the assembly clamping cavity.

[0025] The water replenishment tank replenishes water to the humidifying component in the assembly clamping cavity through the water replenishment hole, and the water on the humidifying component that is not carried away by the airflow flows into the water receiving tank through the drainage hole to achieve water reflux.

[0026] In an optional embodiment, the humidification component includes a filter element frame and a humidifying component, the filter element frame has a hollow back plate horizontally opposite to the middle frame, the give way groove is opened on the hollow back plate, the humidifying component is installed on the filter element frame and is located on the side of the hollow back plate away from the middle frame.

[0027] The hollow back plate is of a hollow structure, ensuring that the air flow in the ventilation cavity can smoothly pass through the humidifying member.

[0028] In an alternative embodiment, the top end of the hollow back plate protrudes above the top end of the humidifying member. The relief groove penetrates through the hollow back plate, and in the vertical direction, the relief groove extends from the inside of the hollow back plate to the top end of the hollow back plate. The top end of the relief section extends upward out of the relief groove.

[0029] Since the top end of the hollow back plate protrudes above the top end of the humidifying member, the relief groove extends from the inside of the hollow back plate to the top end of the hollow back plate, and the top end of the relief section extends upward out of the relief groove, during the process of the bottom end of the humidifying assembly rotating around the top end, the relief section can relatively deflect into the space above the humidifying member without being blocked by the humidifying member, thus ensuring the smooth progress of the rotation process of the humidifying assembly, that is, ensuring the smooth progress of the disassembly and assembly process.

[0030] In an alternative embodiment, the mounting bracket further has a water replenishing groove, the water replenishing groove is connected to the top end of the relief section, the relief section protrudes out of the outer side wall of the water replenishing groove in the direction close to the middle frame, and the hollow back plate is located between the outer side wall of the water replenishing groove and the middle frame.

[0031] The hollow back plate is located between the water replenishing groove and the middle frame. The outer side wall of the water replenishing groove realizes the horizontal limit of the hollow back plate. Combined with the limit section and the cross beam on the hollow skeleton, the horizontal clamping of the humidifying assembly is realized, ensuring the stable and reliable assembly structure of the humidifying assembly.

Detailed implementation manners

[0044] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present utility model more obvious and understandable, the following detailed description of the specific embodiments of the present utility model will be given with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 As shown in the cross-sectional view of the air conditioner 10 provided in this embodiment, Figure 2 As shown in Figure 1 Enlarged schematic view of area A in

[0046] The air conditioner 10 provided in this embodiment includes a body 100, the body 100 includes a middle frame 110 and a panel 120, and the panel 120 is disposed on the outer surface of the middle frame 110. In fact, the body 100 further includes a base and an air duct 130 assembly disposed between the base and the middle frame 110. The air duct 130 assembly has an air duct 130 for air supply. The middle frame 110 is provided with an air outlet corresponding to the air outlet end of the air duct 130. The air duct 130 assembly includes a blower disposed in the air duct 130 and a heat exchanger disposed at the air inlet end of the air duct 130, etc.

[0047] In practical applications, the wind blades rotate driven by the motor, sucking in external air into the air duct 130 and blowing it out from the air outlet. During this process, the air flow exchanges heat with the heat exchanger, thereby achieving temperature regulation of the environmental space. In fact, a wind deflector is provided at the position of the air outlet on the middle frame 110, and the wind deflector can adjust the air outlet angle.

[0048] To realize the humidification function, the air conditioner 10 provided in this embodiment further includes a humidification device 200, and the humidification device 200 is installed on the panel 120 and communicated with the air duct 130 of the body 100. Specifically, the humidification device 200 has an air inlet end and an air outlet end that are communicated inside it. The air inlet end is communicated with the air duct 130 of the body 100, and the air outlet end is communicated with the outside. In practical applications, the air flow in the air duct 130 can enter the humidification device 200 from the air inlet end of the humidification device 200, pass through the humidification device 200, and then flow into the environment from the air outlet end.

[0049] Specifically, the humidification device 200 includes a mounting bracket 210 and a humidification component 220. A humidification window 121 is opened at the bottom end of the panel 120 near the air outlet. The mounting bracket 210 is installed on the humidification window 121, and the humidification component 220 is installed on the mounting bracket 210 and detachably connected to the mounting bracket 210. The humidification component 220 blocks the humidification window 121. The humidification component 220 is spaced from the middle frame 110 in the horizontal direction, forming a ventilation cavity 300 communicated with the air duct 130 of the body 100.

[0050] In practical applications, in addition to flowing into the environment through the air outlet, the air flow in the air duct 130 can also flow into the ventilation cavity 300, and then flow into the environment from the ventilation cavity 300 through the humidification component 220 at the humidification window 121. During the process of the air flow passing through the humidification component 220, the moisture in the humidification component 220 is taken away and flows into the environment together, thereby realizing the humidification of the environmental space.

[0051] Since the humidification window 121 is opened on the panel 120 and the humidification device 200 is installed on the humidification window 121, it avoids blocking the normal outflow of the air flow in the air duct 130 from the air outlet on the middle frame 110, that is, it ensures the normal air outlet effect of the air conditioner 10.

[0052] To ensure that the air flow after passing through the humidification device 200 can carry moisture to a larger range in the environmental space, a grille 224 is provided at the air outlet end of the humidification device 200. In this embodiment, the grille 224 is provided on the humidification component 220, and the grille 224 has grille pieces 2241, and the grille pieces 2241 extend obliquely upward from one end close to the air inlet end to the end far from the air inlet end.

[0053] Since the grille vanes 2241 of the grille 224 extend obliquely upward from the inside to the outside, the airflow carrying moisture after passing through the humidifying assembly 220 can be blown obliquely upward into the environment under the guidance of the grille vanes 2241. As a result, the moisture can reach a wider range in the environmental space driven by the airflow, thereby improving the humidification uniformity of the environmental space and obtaining a better humidification effect.

[0054] In order to ensure that the flow range of the humidified airflow carrying moisture is large enough, that is, the flow distance in the environmental space is far enough, the inclination angle of the grille vanes 2241 with respect to the horizontal plane is between 50° and 55°. Preferably, in this embodiment, the inclination angle of the grille vanes 2241 with respect to the horizontal plane is 53°.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 The cross-sectional view of the humidifying device 200 from the first perspective is shown in Figure 4 The cross-sectional view of the humidifying device 200 from the second perspective is shown in

[0056] In this embodiment, the mounting bracket 210 has a hollowed-out skeleton 211, a water replenishing tank 214 and a water receiving tank 215. The hollowed-out skeleton 211 is opposite to and spaced from the middle frame 110 in the horizontal direction. The top end of the hollowed-out skeleton 211 is connected to the water replenishing tank 214, and the bottom end of the hollowed-out skeleton 211 is connected to the water receiving tank 215. The water replenishing tank 214 and the water receiving tank 215 are located on the side of the hollowed-out skeleton 211 away from the middle frame 110.

[0057] The humidifying assembly 220 is also located on the side of the hollowed-out skeleton 211 away from the middle frame 110. And in the vertical direction, the humidifying assembly 220 is located between the water replenishing tank 214 and the water receiving tank 215. The water replenishing tank 214 is used to replenish water to the humidifying assembly 220, and the water receiving tank 215 is used to receive the excess water in the humidifying assembly 220 to realize the return of water.

[0058] In order to prevent the hollowed-out skeleton 211 from occupying the space of the ventilation cavity 300 and ensure the air flow rate flowing into the ventilation cavity 300 from the air duct 130, in this embodiment, a relief groove 230 is provided on the side of the humidifying assembly 220 close to the middle frame 110, and the part of the hollowed-out skeleton 211 corresponding to the ventilation cavity 300 is embedded in the relief groove 230.

[0059] It can be understood that since the part of the hollowed-out skeleton 211 corresponding to the ventilation cavity 300 is embedded in the relief groove 230, the hollowed-out skeleton 211 is prevented from occupying the space of the ventilation cavity 300, realizing the relief of the ventilation cavity 300 and ensuring that the humidifying air volume is large enough, so as to obtain a better humidifying effect.

[0060] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5The figure shows a cross-sectional view of the air conditioner 10 with the humidifying component 220 and the mounting bracket 210 in an assembled state. Figure 6 Shown is Figure 5 an enlarged schematic view of area B in

[0061] Actually, the hollow skeleton 211 has longitudinal beams 212 extending in the vertical direction. The longitudinal beams 212 include a relief section 2121 and a limiting section 2122 that are connected to each other. The relief section 2121 is above the limiting section 2122. In the horizontal direction, the relief section 2121 is farther from the middle frame 110 than the limiting section 2122. The relief section 2121 is embedded in the relief groove 230, and the limiting section 2122 is located between the humidifying component 220 and the middle frame 110.

[0062] In this embodiment, the top end of the relief section 2121 is connected to the water replenishing tank 214, and the bottom end of the limiting section 2122 is connected to the water receiving tank 215. To improve the structural strength, the hollow skeleton 211 also has a cross beam 213 extending in the horizontal direction. The cross beam 213 is connected to the limiting section 2122, and the cross beam 213 is located between the humidifying component 220 and the middle frame 110.

[0063] It can be understood that the relief section 2121 of the longitudinal beam 212 within the range of the ventilation cavity 300 is embedded in the relief groove 230 of the humidifying component 220. Both the cross beam 213 and the limiting section 2122 of the longitudinal beam 212 are below the ventilation cavity 300, that is, outside the range of the ventilation cavity 300, protruding from the surface of the humidifying component 220 close to the middle frame 110 to limit the humidifying component 220 in the horizontal direction and not occupying the volume of the ventilation cavity 300.

[0064] In this embodiment, the bottom end of the ventilation cavity 300 is communicated with the air duct 130, and the air outlet of the machine body 100 is also below the ventilation cavity 300. In practical applications, by controlling the air deflector, the air volume entering the ventilation cavity 300 from the air duct 130 can be adjusted to control the humidifying air volume, that is, to adjust the humidifying effect. In this embodiment, an arc-shaped flow guiding portion is also provided at the position of the bottom end opening of the ventilation cavity 300 on the middle frame 110 to guide the air flow in the air duct 130 to smoothly flow into the ventilation cavity 300, avoiding air turbulence near the air outlet and affecting the normal air outlet effect and humidifying effect.

[0065] In fact, the longitudinal beam 212 extending in the vertical direction referred to in this embodiment actually refers to the general structure of the longitudinal beam 212. The limiting section 2122 and the giving way section 2121 of the longitudinal beam 212 both extend in the vertical direction. In order to ensure that the giving way section 2121 can be smoothly embedded in the giving way groove 230 of the humidification component 220 when the humidification component 220 and the mounting bracket 210 are in an assembled state, in this embodiment, the longitudinal beam 212 also includes a transition section 2123, one end of the transition section 2123 is connected to the upper end of the cross beam 213, and the other end of the transition section 2123 extends upward at an angle away from the middle frame 110 to be connected to the bottom end of the giving way section 2121.

[0066] Regarding the assembly of the humidifying component 220 and the mounting bracket 210 , in this embodiment, in the assembled state, the bottom end of the humidifying component 220 is embedded in the water receiving groove 215 , and the humidifying component 220 is used to be forced to slide upward along the yielding section 2121 to an unlocked state to disengage from the water receiving groove 215 .

[0067] It can be understood that the opening of the water receiving groove 215 faces upward, and the bottom of the humidification component 220 is embedded downward in the water receiving groove 215. When the humidification component 220 needs to be removed from the mounting bracket 210, the humidification component 220 needs to be moved from the assembled state to the unlocked state relative to the mounting bracket 210, that is, the humidification component 220 needs to be separated from the water receiving groove 215 upward. During the upward movement, the yield section 2121 of the longitudinal beam 212 slides relatively in the yield groove 230, guiding the upward sliding of the humidification component 220.

[0068] In fact, the multiple grille pieces 2241 on the grille 224 are arranged in sequence in the vertical direction, and the edge of the grille piece 2241 at the top of the arrangement queue away from the air inlet end is provided with a dustproof rib 225, and the dustproof rib 225 protrudes from the grille piece 2241 in the direction away from the air inlet end. The dustproof rib 225 is used for the user to apply force to lift the humidification component 220, that is, to drive the humidification component 220 to slide upward to the unlocked state, and on the other hand, to block dust in the environment space to prevent dust from entering the grille 224 and causing contamination of the humidification component 220.

[0069] Please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 Shown Figure 6 Enlarged schematic diagram of area C in the middle.

[0070] In order to prevent the dust-proof rib 225 from blocking the airflow, in the present embodiment, the dust-proof rib 225 has a connecting section 2251 and a dust-proof section 2252. One end of the connecting section 2251 is connected to the edge of the grille plate 2241, and the other end extends vertically upward to connect to one end of the dust-proof section 2252. The other end of the dust-proof section 2252 extends horizontally in a direction away from the air inlet end.

[0071] It can be understood that the dust-proof section 2252 actually serves to allow the user to apply a force and block dust. The dust-proof section 2252 is connected to the outer edge of the grille 2241 through a connecting section 2251 extending in the vertical direction, which can prevent the dust-proof section 2252 from blocking the passage between the top grille 2241 and the next grille 2241, thus ensuring smooth blowing of the humidifying air flow and obtaining a better humidifying effect.

[0072] Please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 , Figure 8 which shows a cross-sectional view of the air conditioner 10 when the bottom end of the humidifying component 220 is rotated out of the mounting bracket 210. Figure 9 Shown as Figure 8 an enlarged schematic view of area D in

[0073] When the humidifying component 220 slides upward along the relief section 2121 from the assembled state to the unlocked state, the water receiving tank 215 is embedded in the top end of the humidifying component 220. In this state, the humidifying component 220 is also used to rotate relative to the relief section 2121 in the vertical plane to the transitional state, so that the bottom end of the humidifying component 220 rotates around its top end out of the mounting bracket 210.

[0074] It can be understood that in the unlocked state, the water receiving tank 215 is embedded in the top end of the humidifying component 220. Due to the horizontal limiting effect of the water receiving tank 215, the humidifying component 220 still cannot horizontally disengage from the mounting bracket 210 in the direction away from the middle frame 110. In this state, continue to apply a force to the dust-proof rib 225, so that the bottom end of the humidifying component 220 rotates around its top end in the vertical plane until its bottom end rotates out of the mounting bracket 210. The relief section 2121 of the longitudinal beam 212 plays a guiding and limiting role in the rotation of the humidifying component 220.

[0075] Please refer to Figure 10 , Figure 10 which shows a cross-sectional view of the humidifying device 200 in the transitional state.

[0076] Specifically, since the relief section 2121 is embedded in the relief groove 230, the relative two sides of the relief section 2121 play a limiting role on the two groove side walls of the relief groove 230, that is, play a limiting role on the rotation direction of the humidifying component 220, so that the humidifying component 220 can rotate smoothly in the vertical plane, thus ensuring that the bottom end of the humidifying component 220 can smoothly rotate out of the mounting bracket 210.

[0077] In the transitional state, the humidifying component 220 is also configured to slide downward along the relief section 2121 under force to disengage from the water replenishing tank 214. In the transitional state, although the water replenishing tank 214 still fits into the top end of the humidifying component 220, the bottom end of the humidifying component 220 is already outside the mounting bracket 210. At this time, the downward movement of the humidifying component 220 is no longer blocked by the water receiving tank 215. Therefore, the humidifying component 220 can slide downward along the relief section 2121 of the longitudinal beam 212 under force, so as to disengage from the water replenishing tank 214 until the relief section 2121 exits the relief groove 230, completing the detachment of the humidifying component 220.

[0078] When it is necessary to reassemble the humidifying component 220 onto the mounting bracket 210, only the reverse operation of the disassembly steps needs to be performed. First, bring the humidifying component 220 close to the hollowed-out skeleton 211 in an inclined state, so that the relief section 2121 of the longitudinal beam 212 is aligned and snapped into the relief groove 230 of the humidifying component 220. Then, push the humidifying component 220 upward along the relief section 2121 until the water replenishing tank 214 fits into the top end of the humidifying component 220, reaching the transitional state.

[0079] After reaching the transitional state, apply a force to make the bottom end of the humidifying component 220 rotate around the top end close to the hollowed-out skeleton 211 until the relief section 2121 is inserted into the relief groove 230, and the cross beam 213 of the hollowed-out skeleton 211 and the limiting section 2122 of the longitudinal beam 212 block the humidifying component 220. At this time, the humidifying component 220 and the mounting bracket 210 are in an unlocked state. In this state, the bottom end of the humidifying component 220 is above the water receiving tank 215 and aligned with the opening of the water receiving tank 215. Therefore, apply a force to make the humidifying component 220 slide downward along the relief section 2121 until its bottom end fits into the water receiving tank 215, reaching the assembled state, that is, completing the installation of the humidifying component 220 on the mounting bracket 210.

[0080] Regarding the structure of the humidifying component 220, in this embodiment, the humidifying component 220 includes a filter element holder 221 and a humidifying element 222. The filter element holder 221 is detachably connected to the mounting bracket 210. A grille 224 is provided on the filter element holder 221, and a relief groove 230 is formed in the filter element holder 221. The filter element holder 221 has an assembly clip cavity 223 with an open top. The humidifying element 222 is installed in the assembly clip cavity 223 and is located between the air inlet end and the air outlet end. A water replenishing hole 2141 communicating with the assembly clip cavity 223 is provided through the bottom of the water replenishing tank 214, and a drain hole 2231 communicating with the water receiving tank 215 is provided through the bottom of the assembly clip cavity 223.

[0081] In fact, the end of the grille sheet 2241 close to the air inlet end is located in the assembly clamping cavity 223 in the vertical direction, and is also within the notch range of the water receiving tank 215. It can be understood that the water replenishing tank 214 replenishes water to the humidifying element 222 through the water replenishing hole 2141 set through the bottom thereof. In the process of the humidified air flow flowing through the surface of the grille sheet 2241, condensed water will adhere to the grille sheet 2241. Under the guidance of the grille sheet 2241, this part of the condensed water can be tilted downward and flowed back to the assembly clamping cavity 223, and enter the water receiving tank 215 together with the excess water on the humidifying element 222 through the drainage hole 2231 set through the bottom of the assembly clamping cavity 223. Through the pipeline design, the water in the docking tank 215 can be reused, that is, it can be re-provided to the humidifying element 222.

[0082] In order to protect the humidifying element 222, in this embodiment, the projection of the grille 224 in the plane where the humidifying element 222 is located covers the humidifying element 222. In other words, the multiple grille pieces 2241 on the grille 224 completely cover the humidifying element 222 in the direction close to the middle frame 110.

[0083] In fact, the filter element frame 221 has a hollow back plate 2211 horizontally opposite to the middle frame 110, that is, the hollow back plate 2211 corresponds to the air inlet end, the make way groove 230 is opened on the hollow back plate 2211, and the grille 224 is opposite to the hollow back plate 2211 and is arranged at a distance, forming an assembly cavity 223 therebetween.

[0084] In order to ensure that the filter element frame 221 can rotate smoothly during the process of disassembling and assembling the humidification component 220, in the present embodiment, the top of the hollow back plate 2211 protrudes from the top of the humidification component 222, the clearance groove 230 passes through the hollow back plate 2211, and in the vertical direction, the clearance groove 230 extends from the inside of the hollow back plate 2211 to the top of the hollow back plate 2211, and the top of the clearance section 2121 extends upward out of the clearance groove 230.

[0085] It is understandable that, during the rotation of the humidifying assembly 220 from the unlocked state to the transitional state, the yielding section 2121 can rotate out of the yielding groove 230 and enter the angle space formed between the top of the humidifying component 222 and the hollow back plate 2211 without squeezing the humidifying component 222. In other words, the angle space formed between the top of the humidifying component 222 and the hollow back plate 2211 provides a yielding space for the yielding section 2121.

[0086] Furthermore, in order to achieve reliable limiting of the filter element frame 221 in the assembled state, in this embodiment, the yielding section 2121 protrudes from the outer wall of the water replenishing groove 214 in the direction close to the middle frame 110, and the hollow back plate 2211 is located between the outer wall of the water replenishing groove 214 and the middle frame 110.

[0087] It can be seen that in the assembled state, on the one hand, the bottom end of the filter element holder 221 is embedded in the water receiving groove 215 of the mounting bracket 210, and on the other hand, the limiting sections 2122 of the cross beam 213 and the longitudinal beam 212 of the hollow skeleton 211 stop and limit the hollow back plate 2211 on the side of the hollow back plate 2211 close to the middle frame 110, and the outer wall of the water replenishing groove 214 stops and limits the hollow back plate 2211 on the side of the hollow back plate 2211 away from the middle frame 110, thereby realizing the horizontal limit fixation of the filter element holder 221 in the assembled state.

[0088] In addition, the inner side of the bottom of the filter element frame 221 is stopped by the hollow frame 211, and the outer side of the top of the filter element frame 221 is stopped by the water replenishment groove 214, that is, the combination of the water replenishment groove 214 and the hollow frame 211 realizes the restriction of the rotation state of the filter element frame 221, so that the filter element frame 221 can only rotate the bottom around the top in the unlocked state, thereby stably and reliably guiding the disassembly and assembly process of the humidification component 220, further reducing the difficulty of disassembly and assembly.

[0089] In summary, the air conditioner 10 provided in this embodiment not only ensures the humidification air volume, but also avoids affecting the normal air outlet effect of the air conditioner 10, and can humidify the environmental space more evenly, with a better humidification effect.

[0090] Although the utility model is disclosed as above, the utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model shall be subject to the scope defined by the claims.
