[0038] Referring to Figures 1 to 6 , the present invention provides an air conditioner, including:
[0039] A housing 10, a duct is formed inside the housing 10, and a main air outlet 11 and a first auxiliary air outlet 12 communicating with the duct are further provided on the housing 10;
[0040] A filter screen bracket 20, which is installed at the first auxiliary air outlet 12;
[0041] A filter screen 30, which is detachably installed on the filter screen bracket 20 to filter the air flow blown out at the first auxiliary air outlet 12; and
[0042] A panel 40, which is detachably installed on the housing 10, and a second auxiliary air outlet 421 corresponding to the position of the filter screen 30 is provided on the panel 40.
[0043] The air conditioner in the technical solution of the present utility model includes a housing 10, a filter screen bracket 20, a filter screen 30, and a panel 40. An air duct is formed inside the housing 10. The housing 10 is further provided with a main air outlet 11 and a first auxiliary air outlet 12 communicated with the air duct. The filter screen bracket 20 is installed at the first auxiliary air outlet 12. The filter screen 30 is detachably installed on the filter screen bracket 20 to filter the air flow blown out at the first auxiliary air outlet 12. The panel 40 is detachably installed on the housing 10. The panel 40 is provided with a second auxiliary air outlet 421 corresponding to the position of the filter screen 30. The first auxiliary air outlet 12 and the second auxiliary air outlet 421 are communicated through the filter screen 30. The panel 40 covers the side of the filter screen 30 facing away from the first air outlet. By detachably installing the filter screen 30 on the filter screen bracket 20 and hiding the filter screen 30 inside by the panel 40, it is convenient to disassemble, replace or clean the filter screen 30, thereby improving the filtering effect of the filter screen 30. And compared with the prior art in which the filter screen 30 is installed at the air inlet, which affects the air intake of the air conditioner, the filter screen 30 in the technical solution of the present utility model is installed at the first auxiliary air outlet 12, thus greatly reducing the influence on the air volume of the air conditioner, further increasing the air output of the air conditioner, and further improving the user experience.
[0044] Among them, the filter screen 30 is hidden by the panel 40. On the one hand, it avoids the filter screen 30 being directly exposed outside, thus affecting the overall appearance effect of the air conditioner; on the other hand, it also reduces the collision and interference with the filter screen 30 during handling and use, thereby improving the stability of the filter screen 30.
[0045] Referring to Figure 8 and Figure 9 , specifically, the filter screen bracket 20 is provided with an installation groove 21. A limiting protrusion 211 is provided on the inner peripheral wall of the installation groove 21. The filter screen 30 is installed on the filter screen bracket 20 by being limited by the limiting protrusion 211. The limiting protrusion 211 causes a certain deformation of the filter screen 30, so that the filter screen 30 is in interference fit with the filter screen bracket 20. The installation process does not require precise alignment, thus greatly reducing the difficulty of installing the filter screen 30, improving the installation efficiency of the filter screen 30, and the installation method of the limiting protrusion 211 is stable and reliable, thereby increasing the stability of the filter screen 30; at the same time, there is no need to set an installation structure on the filter screen 30, thus simplifying the structural complexity of the filter screen 30, and further reducing the production and manufacturing cost of the filter screen 30. Among them, multiple limiting protrusions 211 can be arranged at intervals, or only one can be set, which can be set according to the actual installation strength. Of course, in other embodiments, it can also be that a limiting groove is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the filter screen 30, and the filter screen 30 is installed on the filter screen bracket 20 through the cooperation of the limiting protrusion 211 and the limiting groove.
[0046] Further, a drawstring is provided on the filter screen 30. When the user needs to disassemble the filter screen 30, there is no need to rely on other auxiliary tools. The user only needs to pull the drawstring forcefully to disassemble the filter screen 30 from the filter screen bracket 20, thereby improving the disassembly efficiency of the filter screen 30; and the cost of the drawstring is relatively low, thus reducing the manufacturing cost of the filter screen 30. At the same time, the drawstring is flexible and will not interfere with other components of the air conditioner during the installation, disassembly, and use of the filter screen 30, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the air conditioner. Of course, in other embodiments, structures such as a buckle groove, a holding rod, and a holding protrusion can also be provided on the filter screen 30, so that the user can take out the filter screen 30 from the filter screen bracket 20 without relying on other auxiliary tools.
[0047] Referring to Figures 8 to 11 , in one embodiment, a first clamping portion is provided on the filter screen bracket 20, and a second clamping portion is provided on the housing 10. The filter screen bracket 20 is clamped to the housing 10 through the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion. Among them, the snap connection method is stable and reliable, and the installation method is simple, thereby improving the installation efficiency and stability of the filter screen bracket 20 and the housing 10.
[0048] Specifically, the first clamping portion is a first buckle 22, and the second clamping portion is a first clamping hole 13. The structures of the first buckle 22 and the first clamping hole 13 are simple and convenient to install, and the structure is simple, thereby simplifying the structural complexity of the filter screen bracket 20 and the housing 10, further reducing the manufacturing cost of the filter screen bracket 20 and the housing 10, improving the reliability and stability of the installation of the filter screen bracket 20, and improving the installation efficiency of the filter screen bracket 20.
[0049] It can be understood that after the first buckle 22 is inserted into the first clamping hole 13, there is still a certain installation gap between the first buckle 22 and the first clamping hole 13, which is likely to cause the filter screen bracket 20 to loosen, thereby reducing the reliability and stability of the installation of the filter screen bracket 20. Therefore, in one embodiment, a plurality of the first buckles 22 and the first clamping holes 13 are provided, and a plurality of limiting plates 23 are provided on the filter screen bracket 20. At least one first buckle 22 corresponds to one limiting plate 23, the limiting plate 23 is spaced from the first buckle 22, and both the first buckle 22 and the limiting plate 23 are clamped in the first clamping hole 13. By providing the limiting plate 23, the installation gap between the filter screen bracket 20 and the housing 10 is reduced, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the filter screen bracket 20. Further, in one embodiment, one first buckle 22 corresponds to one limiting plate 23. Of course, it can also be that one first buckle 22 corresponds to two limiting plates 23.
[0050] Understandably, the limiting plate 23 is spaced from the first buckle 22, and at the same time, it also functions to limit and abut against the hole wall of the first engaging hole 13. Because, in order to prevent the limiting plate 23 from being bent too much under force and breaking, therefore, in an embodiment, the limiting plate 23 is provided with a reinforcing rib 24. By providing the reinforcing rib 24, the structural strength of the limiting plate 23 is improved, thereby reducing the bending amplitude of the limiting plate 23, further reducing the possibility of the limiting plate 23 breaking, and further improving the reliability and stability of the installation of the filter bracket 20.
[0051] Specifically, one of the housing 10 and the panel 40 is provided with a second buckle 422, and the other is provided with a second engaging hole 14. The panel 40 is snap-connected to the housing 10 through the cooperation of the second buckle 422 and the second engaging hole 14. The connection method of the second buckle 422 and the second engaging hole 14 is simple, stable and reliable, and the production and manufacturing cost is relatively low, thereby improving the installation efficiency between the housing 10 and the panel 40 and reducing the production and manufacturing cost between the housing 10 and the panel 40.
[0052] Understandably, corresponding limiting plates 23 are also spaced around the second buckle 422. When the second buckle 422 is snap-connected to the second engaging hole 14, the corresponding limiting plates 23 also limit and abut against the inside of the second engaging hole 14. One limiting plate 23 can be correspondingly provided for one second buckle 422, and two limiting plates 23 can also be correspondingly provided for one second buckle 422. By spacing the limiting plates 23 around the second buckle 422, the installation gap between the second buckle 422 and the second engaging hole 14 is reduced, thereby improving the installation stability and reliability between the housing 10 and the panel 40.
[0053] Specifically, the panel 40 includes an upper panel 41 and a lower panel 42 both installed on the housing 10. The second auxiliary air outlet 421 is provided on the lower panel 42. The lower panel 42 is detachably installed on the housing 10, and the upper end of the lower panel 42 abuts against the filter net 30. By abutting the lower panel 42 against the filter net 30, the installation stability and reliability of the filter net 30 are further improved, and thus the filtering effect of the air conditioner is improved.
[0054] Among them, the upper panel 41 is a glass panel. The glass panel has a good touch and is convenient for users to wipe and clean, thereby improving the user experience and the cleanliness of the air conditioner. The second auxiliary air outlet 421 is provided with an air outlet grille. The air outlet grille is a plurality of inclined ribs spaced on the lower panel 42, thereby reducing the possibility of larger-volume dirt entering the interior of the air conditioner through the second auxiliary air outlet 421, thereby reducing the possibility of blockage of the first auxiliary air outlet 12. At the same time, the inclined ribs arranged obliquely do not affect the air volume of the second auxiliary air outlet 421, and thus the stability and reliability of the air conditioner are improved.
[0055] In one embodiment, a buckle plate 43 is installed on the lower panel 42, and a hand-grip groove 431 is provided on the side of the buckle plate 43 facing away from the filter screen 30. The buckle plate 43 is detachably installed on the lower panel 42, and the hand-grip groove 431 is provided on the buckle plate 43, so that when the user needs to install or remove the lower panel 42, the user only needs to pull the buckle plate 43 through the hand-grip groove 431 by hand, without the aid of other auxiliary tools, so that the lower panel 42 can be removed from the housing 10, thereby improving the disassembly efficiency of the lower panel 42.
[0056] The above description is only an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the technical concept of the present invention, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
