[0051] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0052] In this application, the air conditioner performs a refrigeration cycle of the air conditioner by using a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve and an evaporator. The refrigeration cycle includes a series of processes involving compression, condensation, expansion and evaporation to cool or heat the indoor space.

[0053] Low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant enters the compressor, which compresses it into high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas and discharges the compressed refrigerant gas. The discharged refrigerant gas flows into the condenser. The condenser condenses the compressed refrigerant into a liquid phase, releasing heat into the surrounding environment through the condensation process.

[0054] The expansion valve expands the high-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant condensed in the condenser to a lower-pressure liquid. The evaporator evaporates the refrigerant expanded in the expansion valve and returns the low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas to the compressor. The evaporator achieves cooling by utilizing the latent heat of evaporation to exchange heat with the material being cooled. Throughout this cycle, the air conditioner regulates the temperature of the indoor space.

[0055] The outdoor unit of the air conditioner refers to a portion of a refrigeration cycle including a compressor and an outdoor heat exchanger, the indoor unit of the air conditioner includes an indoor heat exchanger, and an expansion valve may be provided in the indoor unit or the outdoor unit.

[0056] The indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger function as a condenser or an evaporator. When the indoor heat exchanger functions as a condenser, the air conditioner functions as a heater in heating mode, and when the indoor heat exchanger functions as an evaporator, the air conditioner functions as a cooler in cooling mode.

[0057] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a duct air conditioner, including: a shell 1, a heat exchange component 2, a fan 3, an electronic control component 4 and other components.

[0058] The housing 1 serves as an external support and protection body for mounting related components. In order to meet the requirements of air flow and heat exchange, the housing 1 is provided with an air inlet 11 and an air outlet 12.

[0059] The heat exchange assembly 2 is used to perform heat exchange processing on the airflow flowing into the housing 1 to achieve heating and / or cooling of the airflow. The heat exchange assembly 2 includes a heat exchanger 21, which is configured to heat the airflow flowing through it to form a heat exchange airflow.

[0060] Since the condensed water or defrost water generated during the use of the heat exchanger 21 needs to be collected and discharged, the heat exchange assembly 2 further includes a water receiving pan 22, which is arranged at the bottom of the heat exchanger 21 and is used to collect the water left on the heat exchanger 21. The heat exchanger 21 is placed on the water receiving pan 22.

[0062] The electric control assembly 4 is mainly used to realize electrical connection with an external power supply, and can also control the operation of the internal electrical components of the duct machine.

[0063] The heat exchange assembly 2 , the fan 3 and the electric control box 41 are arranged in the housing 1 . Along the airflow direction inside the housing 1 , the heat exchange assembly 2 and the electric control box 41 are arranged in sequence.

The connecting component 215 can also cover the ends of the first heat exchange component 212 and the second heat exchange component 213 to prevent airflow from leaking between the ends of the first heat exchange component 212 and the second heat exchange component 213.

[0111] In another embodiment, an extended connection portion 2151 is provided on both sides of the end of the connecting component 215, and the extended connection portion 2151 extends toward the tube sheet 210 on the corresponding side, and the extended connection portion 2151 is connected to the tube sheet 210 on the corresponding side.

[0112] Specifically, to improve the reliability of the connection between the connecting component 215 and the first heat exchange component 212 and the second heat exchange component 213, an extension connection portion 2151 is provided on the connecting component. The extension connection portion 2151 can extend to the corresponding tube sheet 210, thereby securing the extension connection portion 2151 to the tube sheet 210. For example, the extension connection portion 2151 can be secured to the tube sheet 210 using screws, thereby securing the first heat exchange component 212 and the second heat exchange component 213 to the connecting component 215.

[0113] In another embodiment of the present application, in order to meet the requirement of detecting whether there is refrigerant leakage in the heat exchanger, a refrigerant detection sensor 23 can be provided on the heat exchanger. The refrigerant detection sensor 23 can detect the refrigerant leakage in time when the refrigerant leakage occurs in the heat exchanger to perform corresponding processing such as shutdown alarm.

[0114] In a certain embodiment, in order to facilitate the operator to easily assemble the refrigerant detection sensor 23, a mounting support portion 216 can be further provided on the heat exchanger. The mounting support portion 216 is arranged on the windward side of the heat exchanger and arranged opposite to the air inlet. The refrigerant detection sensor 23 is also provided on the mounting support portion 216.

[0115] Specifically, mounting support 216 is positioned on the windward side of the heat exchanger, which in turn faces the air inlet. This allows mounting support 216 to be exposed to the air inlet. During assembly, the operator can insert refrigerant detection sensor 23 into the housing through the housing's air inlet and securely mount it to mounting support 216. This eliminates the difficulty associated with installing refrigerant detection sensor 23 between the heat exchanger and the sidewall of the housing.

[0116] In some embodiments, the mounting support portion 216 is located between two oppositely arranged tube sheets 210 .

[0117] Specifically, the mounting support portion 216 is located between the oppositely arranged tube sheets 210 at both ends of the heat exchanger, so that the mounting support portion 216 can be arranged at the windward surface of the heat exchanger.

[0118] By providing a mounting support portion 216 on the heat exchanger, the mounting support portion 216 is arranged on the inner side of the end of the heat exchanger, and the space occupied by the heat exchanger can be fully utilized to place the mounting support portion 216. When installing the refrigerant detection sensor 23, the refrigerant detection sensor 23 can be placed in the outer shell through the air inlet and the refrigerant detection sensor 23 can be fixedly installed on the mounting support portion 216. Since the space between the heat exchanger and the air inlet is large and it is convenient for the operator to put his hand in to operate, the assembly difficulty is reduced, thereby improving the overall assembly efficiency of the duct machine.

[0119] In another embodiment, in order to facilitate the installation of the refrigerant detection sensor 23 , the refrigerant detection sensor 23 is provided with a mounting bracket 2161 , and the mounting bracket 2161 is detachably mounted on the mounting support portion 216 .

[0120] Specifically, during the actual assembly process, the refrigerant detection sensor 23 can first be assembled on the outside of the shell to the mounting bracket 2161. The mounting bracket 2161 can be provided with a corresponding mounting structure to meet the fixed installation requirements of the refrigerant detection sensor 23. For example, the refrigerant detection sensor 23 can be assembled on the mounting bracket 2161 by means of clip-on or screw fixing.

[0121] Then, the refrigerant detection sensor 23 assembled on the mounting bracket 2161 is placed into the shell through the air inlet of the shell, and connected to the mounting support part 216 through the mounting bracket 2161 to achieve fixed assembly of the refrigerant detection sensor 23 on the mounting support part 216.

[0122] In some embodiments, slots are provided on both sides of the mounting support portion 216 , and the mounting bracket 2161 is inserted into the slots; the mounting bracket 2161 is further connected to the mounting support portion 216 via screws.

[0126] In another embodiment of the present application, the water receiving tray is formed with a first water receiving portion 221 and a second water receiving portion 222. The first water receiving portion 221 is provided with a vent 223. The first water receiving portion 221 is provided in the housing and arranged between the inner walls of the housing. The first water receiving portion 221 divides the interior of the housing into an air inlet cavity and an air outlet cavity. The second water receiving portion 222 extends along the inner wall of the housing.

[0127] The heat exchanger covers the ventilation opening 223 .

[0128] Specifically, the water receiving tray is formed with a first water receiving portion 221 and a second water receiving portion 222. The first water receiving portion 221 and the second water receiving portion 222 can meet the requirement of collecting condensed water of the heat exchanger when the shell is installed vertically or horizontally.

[0129] The water receiving tray is located in the shell and divides the interior of the shell into an air inlet cavity and an air outlet cavity. The vent 223 on the first water receiving part 221 connects the air inlet cavity and the air outlet cavity. The air in the air inlet cavity enters the air outlet cavity after heat exchange through the heat exchanger.

[0130] In one embodiment, a first structural reinforcement 224 is further provided on the second water receiving portion 222 . The first structural reinforcement 224 extends in a direction away from the first water receiving portion 221 .

The first structural reinforcement 224 can extend the water receiving area of the second water receiving portion 222 to better meet the requirements of collecting condensed water from the heat exchanger.

[0132] At the same time, since the heat exchanger 21 needs to be assembled on the water receiving tray 22, the auxiliary fixing member 225 configured on the first structural reinforcement 224 can be connected to the connecting member 214 configured on the heat exchanger 21, so that the heat exchanger 21 can be firmly installed on the water receiving tray 22.

[0133] In one embodiment, a folded connection portion 2152 is further provided at the end of the connecting component; the auxiliary fixing member 225 extends toward the connecting component, and the folded connection portion 2152 is connected to the free end of the auxiliary fixing member 225 .

[0135] In one embodiment, first connection support portions 226 are respectively provided at both ends of the vent 223 , and ends of the heat exchanger are provided on the corresponding first connection support portions 226 .

[0136] Specifically, the end of the heat exchanger 21 can be supported by the first connecting support portion 226 , so that the heat exchanger can be securely installed on the first water receiving portion 221 of the water receiving tray.

[0137] The first connection support portion 226 is a lap plate or a support seat, the end of the heat exchanger is lapped on the lap plate, and the end of the heat exchanger rests on the support seat.

[0138] In another embodiment, in order to effectively cover the vent 223 with the heat exchanger 21 , the vent 223 is further provided with a second connecting support portion 227 , and the second connecting support portion 227 is connected to the corresponding end plate 214 .

[0139] Specifically, the two ends of the heat exchanger 21 are respectively connected to the first connecting support parts 226, and sealing strips can be added to the connection parts. Similarly, the end plates 214 on both sides of the heat exchanger 21 are connected to the second connecting support parts 227 on both sides of the vent 223. On the one hand, the periphery of the heat exchanger is well connected and fixed to the periphery of the vent 223, and on the other hand, the vent 223 can be completely covered by the heat exchanger.

[0140] In one embodiment, the end plate 214 is abutted against the outer side of the second connection support portion 227 , and the end plate 214 is fixedly connected to the second connection support portion 227 by screws.

[0141] In another embodiment, a positioning notch 2142 is provided on the edge of the end plate 214 , and a positioning protrusion 228 is provided on the second connection support portion 227 , and the positioning protrusion 228 is located in the positioning notch 2142 .

[0142] Specifically, after the heat exchanger 21 is assembled on the water receiving tray 22 , the positioning notch 2142 cooperates with the positioning protrusion 228 to perform a positioning installation function, so that the heat exchanger 21 can be accurately and reliably installed on the water receiving tray 22 .

[0143] In one embodiment, an annular protrusion structure is provided on the outer periphery of the vent 223 , and the first connection support portion 226 and the second connection support portion 227 are formed on the annular protrusion structure.

[0144] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the heat exchanger 21 can be arranged in the air outlet cavity.

[0145] In another embodiment, Figure 7 As shown, the heat exchanger is arranged in the air inlet cavity. In this case, since the air entering the air outlet cavity first exchanges heat with the heat exchanger 21 and then enters the air outlet cavity through the vent 223, it is easy for air leakage to occur due to the gap formed between the heat exchange component 2 and the outer shell 1, resulting in condensation at the leakage point.

[0146] To this end, the following structural improvements are made to the housing 1.

[0147] In which, the heat exchange component is located in the shell, and a gap is formed between the water receiving tray and the inner wall of the shell; a shielding portion 18 is provided in the shell, and the shielding portion 18 is located in the air outlet cavity. The shielding portion 18 extends from the inner wall of the shell toward the interior of the shell, and the shielding portion 18 blocks the gap. In addition, a sealing component (not shown) is also provided between the shielding portion 18 and the heat exchange component, and the sealing component seals the gap.

[0148] Specifically, when heat exchanger 22 is located in the air outlet cavity, after the heat exchange assembly 2 is fully installed in the housing 1, a gap will be formed between the heat exchange assembly 2 and the inner wall of the housing 1. After the fan is started, the air exchanged through heat exchanger 21 enters the air outlet cavity through vent 223. Due to the existence of the gap, some air will flow through the gap. The shielding portion 18 can block the gap and seal it with a sealing component, thereby solving the problem of air leakage through the gap.

[0149] The sealing component may be a sealing material commonly used in air conditioners, such as sealing cotton.

[0150] In one embodiment, a first installation gap is formed between the end of the heat exchanger and the inner wall of the outer shell; the shielding portion 18 includes a first shielding sub-portion 181, the first shielding sub-portion 181 is located in the air outlet cavity, the first shielding sub-portion 181 covers the front side of the first installation gap, and a sealing component is provided between the first shielding sub-portion 181 and the heat exchange assembly.

[0151] Specifically, in actual use, air leakage does not always occur around the heat exchange assembly 2. Air leakage is more likely to occur at the ends of the heat exchanger. To this end, the first shielding sub-portion 181 is arranged at the front side of the first installation gap to block the gap formed between the heat exchange assembly 2 and the housing 1 at this position.

[0152] By arranging a shielding portion 18 inside the shell, the shielding portion 18 is located in the air outlet cavity and on the inner side of the heat exchanger. The shielding portion 18 presses the sealing component onto the heat exchange component, and then the gap formed between the heat exchange component and the inner wall of the shell can be sealed by the sealing component. In actual use, after the fan is started, after the air enters the shell through the air inlet, the sealing component can prevent the air from bypassing the heat exchanger and entering the air outlet cavity from the gap between the heat exchange component and the shell. On the one hand, it can reduce the occurrence of air leakage, and on the other hand, it can reduce the damage to electrical components caused by condensation caused by air leakage, so as to improve the reliability of the duct machine.

[0153] In one embodiment, a second installation gap is formed between the edge of the heat exchanger close to the first connection support portion 226 and the inner wall of the housing;

[0154] A second shielding sub-portion 182 is provided in the housing. The second shielding sub-portion 182 is located in the air outlet cavity. The second shielding sub-portion 182 covers the front side of the second installation interval.

[0155] Specifically, in order to fully shield the gaps around the heat exchange component 2 and the outer shell 1, the shielding portion 18 also includes a second shielding sub-portion 182. The second shielding sub-portion 182 can shield both sides of the docking water tray 22. The first shielding sub-portion 181 and the second shielding sub-portion 182 are distributed on the inner walls around the outer shell 1 to shield and protect the gaps between the surrounding areas of the docking water tray 22 and the inner walls of the outer shell 1.

[0201] In one embodiment, in order to facilitate the installation of the mounting support frame 13 into the housing 1 , the mounting support frame 13 can be assembled into the housing 1 in an insertion manner.

[0202] Specifically, the housing is provided with a bearing slot 17, and the mounting support frame 13 is inserted into the bearing slot 17. Thus, during on-site assembly by the operator, the mounting support frame 13 equipped with the fan 3 and the electronic control component 4 is inserted into the bearing slot 17. On the one hand, the bearing slot 17 supports the mounting support frame 13, and on the other hand, the bearing slot 17 can also limit and fix the mounting support frame 13.

[0203] In some embodiments, the housing includes a support frame 15 and a plurality of protective plates 16 , and the protective plates 16 are detachably disposed on the support frame 15 .

[0204] The bearing slots 17 are provided on two oppositely arranged guard plates 16 , and the mounting support frame 13 is inserted between the two oppositely arranged bearing slots 17 .

[0205] Specifically, when the outer shell 1 is assembled, multiple guard plates 16 are assembled and fixed on the support frame 15. After the guard plates 16 with supporting slots 17 are fixed on the support frame 15, the mounting support frame 13 can be inserted between the two supporting slots 17 first, and then the remaining guard plates 16 can be assembled.

[0206] In another embodiment, a mounting support surface 131 is formed on the mounting support frame 13, and a ventilation connection port 132 is further provided on the mounting support surface 131;

[0207] The electric control assembly 4 includes an electric control box 41 , which serves as an installation component of the electric control assembly 4 and is installed in the housing 1 through the electric control box 41 .

[0208] The electric control assembly 4 further includes a circuit board 42, which is disposed in the electric control box 41. The circuit board 42 is configured with at least one circuit board 42 according to its function to meet power supply and control requirements.

[0209] The mounting support frame 13 is disposed in the housing 1 , the electric control box 41 is disposed on the mounting support surface 131 , and the fan 3 is disposed on the mounting support surface 131 and connected to the ventilation connection port 132 ;

[0210] The electric control box 41 and the fan 3 are located between the mounting support frame 13 and the heat exchange assembly 2 .

[0211] Specifically, the mounting support frame 13 is fixedly disposed inside the housing 1 . The mounting support frame 13 will mount and fix the electric control component 4 via the mounting support surface 131 . The electric control box 41 cooperates with the mounting support surface 131 to form a cavity.

[0212] Fan 3 is similarly mounted on mounting support frame 13. To ensure the airflow driven by fan 3, a ventilation connection port 132 is provided on mounting support surface 131. The outlet of fan 3 is connected to ventilation connection port 132. When fan 3 is activated, air enters housing 1 through air inlet 11, exchanges heat with heat exchanger 21 in heat exchange assembly 2, and then enters fan 3. Air is then output from ventilation connection port 132 and delivered to the exterior of housing 1 through air outlet 12.

[0213] In one embodiment, in order to facilitate installation of the fan 3 , the mounting support frame 13 is provided with mounting slots 133 on both sides of the ventilation connection port 132 on the mounting support surface 131 , and the volute of the fan 3 is inserted into the mounting slots 133 .

[0214] Specifically, the volute of the fan 3 can be inserted into the installation slot 133, which can achieve fixed installation on the installation support frame 13 on the one hand, and can also ensure reliable docking between the volute and the ventilation connection port 132 on the other hand.

[0215] In one embodiment, since the fan 3 and the electronic control assembly 4 are both mounted on the mounting support surface 131 of the mounting support frame 13, the electronic control assembly 4 is arranged on one side of the fan 3. In order to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat dissipation component 43, the heat dissipation component 43 is arranged close to the fan 3.

[0216] Specifically, when the circuit board 42 is powered on and in use, it generates heat, necessitating heat dissipation from the circuit board 42. The heat dissipation opening 4113 can be equipped with a heat dissipation component 43, which can be made of a material with excellent thermal conductivity (such as aluminum or copper). The heat dissipation component 43 is inserted into the heat dissipation opening 4113 and thermally connected to the circuit board 42, effectively dissipating heat from the circuit board 42.

[0217] After the fan 3 is started, the air flow after heat exchange through the heat exchanger 21 will flow toward the fan 3. During the flow process, part of the air flow will flow directly into the inlet of the fan 3, and part of the air flow will flow along the surface of the electrical control box 41 to take away the heat released by the circuit board 42 absorbed by the heat dissipation component 43, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat dissipation component 43.

[0218] In one embodiment, a deflector cover 14 is further provided on the ventilation connection port 132 , and the cross-sectional area of the deflector cover 14 increases along the air outlet direction.

[0219] Specifically, the deflector hood 14 is connected to the ventilation connection port 132 to guide the airflow output from the fan 3. The deflector hood 14 guides the airflow to the air outlet 12 of the outer shell 1 to increase the air outlet coverage area of the air outlet 12. An air outlet channel will be formed through the deflector hood 14.

[0220] In one embodiment, the surface of the electrical control box 41 adjacent to the volute of the fan 3 is a guide surface 410, and the guide surface 410 is arranged at an angle. The heat dissipation duct is formed between the guide surface and the outer wall of the volute of the fan. Along the airflow direction of the heat dissipation duct, the heat dissipation duct has a tapered structure.

[0221] Specifically, to improve the heat dissipation efficiency and operational reliability of circuit board 42, the surface of electrical control box 41 adjacent to the volute of fan 3 is provided with a guide surface 410. This guide surface directs airflow through electrical control box 41. A heat dissipation duct is formed between guide surface 410 and the volute of fan 3. After the fan is started, airflow after heat exchange in the heat exchanger flows toward the fan. Part of the airflow is drawn into the fan, while the remaining airflow passes through the heat dissipation duct and is then drawn back into the fan. This effectively dissipates heat from the circuit board in the electrical control box through the heat dissipation duct.

[0222] In one embodiment, a plurality of heat dissipation fins are provided on the heat dissipation component, and the heat dissipation fins are extended along the rotation axis direction of the fan.

[0223] Specifically, because the heat sink fins are located in the heat dissipation duct, the extension direction of the heat sink fins is the same as the flow direction of the airflow in the heat dissipation duct. On the one hand, the airflow can flow along the heat sink fins to quickly remove heat; on the other hand, the heat sink fins can guide the airflow to ensure smooth flow in the heat dissipation duct.

[0224] In some embodiments, the drainage surface 410 formed on the electrical control box 41 may be formed on the box body 411. The drainage surface 410 is formed on the box body 411 and extends obliquely from the inner wall of the housing 1 in a direction away from the water receiving tray 22. Specifically, a first end of the drainage surface 410 on the box body 411 is adjacent to the sidewall of the housing 1 and the water receiving tray 22, while a second end of the drainage surface 410 on the box body 411 is away from the sidewall of the housing 1 and the water receiving tray 22.

[0225] In some embodiments, the box body 411 is further provided with a threading hole, in which a threading rubber plug 46 is disposed. Specifically, cables extending from the circuit board 42 in the electrical control box 41 to the outside of the electrical control box 41 are led out through the threading rubber plug 46. The threading rubber plug 46 can seal the cable lead-out area to improve waterproof performance.

[0227] The above are only specific embodiments of the present application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included in the scope of protection of this application.
