It should be understood that these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of this application thorough and complete, and to fully convey the concepts of these exemplary embodiments to those of ordinary skill in the art. In the accompanying drawings, for the sake of clarity, the thickness of layers and regions may be exaggerated, and the same reference numerals are used to represent the same devices, and thus their descriptions will be omitted.

[0041] Combine Figures 1 to 7 As shown, according to a specific embodiment of the present application, an air conditioner is provided.

[0042] Specifically, the air conditioner includes a housing 1, an evaporator 2, a condenser 3, and a first fan assembly 4. The housing 1 has a first chamber 11 and a second chamber 12, each of which is independently arranged. The evaporator 2 is mounted in the first chamber 11, the condenser 3 is mounted in the second chamber 12, and the first fan assembly 4 is mounted in the second chamber 12. An air guide channel 115 is provided between the first fan assembly 4 and the condenser 3. The first fan assembly 4 includes first blades 43. The radial width of the first fan assembly 4 is greater than the width of the second chamber 12, so that the first blades 43 are arranged obliquely in the second chamber 12.

[0043] In the embodiment of the present application, the first chamber 11 and the second chamber 12 are independently arranged in the housing 1, the evaporator 2 is located in the first chamber 11, and the condenser 3 and the first fan assembly 4 are located in the second chamber 12, that is, the outdoor unit and the indoor unit are designed as an integrated whole. The radial width of the first fan assembly 4 is greater than the width of the second chamber 12. In order to enable the first fan assembly 4 to be installed in the second chamber 12, the first fan assembly 4 needs to be placed at an angle, that is, the first fan blades 43 in the first fan assembly 4 are arranged at an angle in the second chamber 12. In the above solution, the first fan assembly 4 is arranged at an angle, so that the projection size of the first fan assembly 4 in the width direction of the second chamber 12 is reduced, that is, the first fan assembly 4 can be installed in the second chamber 12 with a smaller width, thereby reducing the width of the entire machine and facilitating the installation of the entire machine.

[0044] It should be noted that if Figure 7 As shown, the first fan assembly 4 includes a rear air duct 41, a first motor 42, a first fan blade 43, a front air duct 44, and a first guide ring 45, wherein the first fan blade 43 is a centrifugal fan blade. The first fan assembly 4 is disposed obliquely within the second chamber 12, that is, the rear air duct 41, the first motor 42, the first fan blade 43, the front air duct 44, and the first guide ring 45 are all disposed obliquely within the second chamber 12.

[0045] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the plane where the condenser 3 is located is arranged parallel to the radial direction of the first fan blade 43. The axis of the first fan assembly 4 is coaxial with the axis of the first fan blade 43, that is, the plane where the condenser 3 is located is arranged parallel to the radial plane of the first fan assembly 4, that is, the condenser 3 is arranged obliquely in the second chamber 12.

[0046] Combine Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 as well as Figure 7 As shown, the housing 1 is a rectangular cavity formed by a top cover 19, a bottom plate 16, a front side panel 111, a rear side panel 112, a left side panel 113, and a right side panel 114. The rectangular cavity is divided into a first chamber 11 and a second chamber 12. When the housing 1 is installed on the mounting foundation, the first chamber 11 is located above the second chamber 12. The rear side panel 112 is provided with a second air inlet 13 and a second air outlet 14. The condenser 3 is arranged at an angle, and the condenser 3 is arranged at an angle to the rear side panel 112. That is, the heat exchange surface of the condenser 3 is tilted relative to the second air inlet 13, increasing the air volume received by the condenser 3 and improving the heat exchange efficiency.

[0047] Combine Figure 4 As shown, the first fan blade 43 is connected to the second air outlet 14 to quickly discharge the hot air in the air guide channel 115, thereby increasing the air output of the second air outlet 14 and improving the heat exchange efficiency.

[0048] Furthermore, the first fan assembly 4 is arranged opposite to the condenser 3 along the length direction of the second chamber 12 .

[0049] Combine Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 as well as Figure 7 As shown, a second fan assembly 7 is installed in the first chamber 11. The second fan assembly 7 includes a second fan blade 71, a second motor 72, and a second guide ring 73, wherein the second fan blade 71 is a cross-flow fan blade. The second fan blade 71 is arranged along the length direction of the first chamber 11, that is, the axis of the second fan blade 71 extends along the length direction of the first chamber 11 to reduce the width of the first chamber 11. In order to install the second fan assembly 7, the first chamber 11 needs to reach a certain length. On the basis that the second chamber 12 is equal in length to the first chamber 11, the first fan assembly 4 is arranged opposite to the condenser 3 along the length direction of the second chamber 12, which can fully utilize the installation space of the second chamber 12 without increasing the width and length of the second chamber 12.

[0050] The larger the width of the condenser 3, the larger the heat exchange area of the condenser 3, and thus the higher the heat exchange efficiency of the condenser 3. The heat exchange efficiency of the condenser 3 can be increased by increasing the width of the large condenser 3. In the embodiment of the present application, the width of the condenser 3 is greater than the width of the second chamber 12. The condenser 3 is arranged at an angle, that is, the condenser 3 can be installed in the second chamber 12 with a smaller width, thereby reducing the width of the entire machine and facilitating installation of the entire machine. In addition, if the installation space of the second chamber 12 allows, the width of the condenser 3 can be increased to further improve the heat exchange efficiency.

[0051] Preferably, the angle between the plane where the condenser 3 is located and the side wall of the second chamber 12 is α, and the angle between the radial direction of the first fan blade 43 and the side wall of the second chamber 12 is α, wherein 30°≤α≤35°.

[0052] As an alternative implementation, α can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0053] In an embodiment of the present application, the first chamber 11 is provided with a first air inlet 116 and a first air outlet 117, the indoor air exchanges heat with the evaporator 2 through the first air inlet 116, and the indoor air after heat exchange is discharged to the room through the first air outlet 117, and the second chamber 12 is provided with a second air inlet 13 and a second air outlet 14, the outdoor air exchanges heat with the condenser 3 through the second air inlet 13, and the outdoor air after heat exchange is discharged to the outside through the air guide channel 115 and the second air outlet 14 in turn.

[0054] Specifically, combined Figure 5 、 Figure 6As shown, a first air inlet 116 and a first air outlet 117 are provided on the front side plate 111 of the shell 1, wherein an air guide plate 110 is provided at the first air outlet 117, and the air guide plate 110 is used to adjust the air outlet direction in the room.

[0055] Combine Figure 5 As shown, the evaporator 2 includes a first evaporation portion 21 and a second evaporation portion 22. The first evaporation portion 21 and the second evaporation portion 22 are arranged at an angle. While ensuring the heat exchange area, the space occupied by the evaporator 2 can be reduced, thereby reducing the overall size of the air conditioner.

[0056] In another exemplary embodiment of the present application, a first water receiving tray 15 is provided within the housing 1. The first water receiving tray 15 divides the interior of the housing 1 into a first chamber 11 and a second chamber 12. The first water receiving tray 15 is used to collect condensed water from the evaporator 2. By using the first water receiving tray 15 as a partition to divide the interior of the housing 1 into the first chamber 11 and the second chamber 12, no additional partitioning structure is required, which helps to simplify the structure of the housing 1.

[0057] The housing 1 has a chassis 16, which is arranged opposite to the first water receiving tray 15. The condenser 3 and the first fan assembly 4 are respectively connected to the chassis 16. The first water receiving tray 15 is connected to the chassis 16 through a plurality of support rods 17. Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, a plurality of support rods 17 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the housing 1 to vertically support the first water receiving tray 15 to improve the overall rigidity of the housing 1 .

[0058] In another exemplary embodiment of the present application, the air conditioner further includes a compressor 5 and an electrical box 6 . The compressor 5 is installed in the second chamber 12 , and the electrical box 6 is installed in the first chamber 11 .

[0059] like Figure 1 As shown, the compressor 5 and the electrical box 6 are separately arranged in the upper and lower chambers, and the internal space of the first chamber 11 and the second chamber 12 is reasonably utilized to reduce the overall size of the air conditioner.

[0060] Furthermore, a second water receiving tray 18 is installed on the chassis 16 of the housing 1 , and the condenser 3 is connected to the chassis 16 via the second water receiving tray 18 . The second water receiving tray 18 is used to collect condensed water on the condenser 3 .
