The air conditioner disclosed in this solution also includes an insulation frame 3, which is located at the notch of the groove 11 and is connected to the panel 1. The insulation frame 3 is used to seal the notch, and the insulation frame 3 and the groove 11 are enclosed to form an insulation cavity.

[0033] This solution forms an insulating cavity through the insulating frame 3 and the groove 11 of the panel 1. The insulating medium in the insulating cavity is air. The thermal conductivity of air is low. The insulating cavity can effectively reduce the heat conduction efficiency around the swing leaf, isolate the cold bridge connection of cold air, and keep the temperature around the panel 1 above the dew point temperature, thereby improving the condensation and dripping conditions around the panel 1.

[0038] The connection between the heat insulation frame 3 and the panel 1 can be at a position not corresponding to the groove 11 or at a position corresponding to the groove 11 .

[0039] In the embodiment where the insulation frame 3 is connected to the panel 1 at a position not corresponding to the groove 11 , the insulation frame 3 may be directly connected to a flat portion of the panel 1 , and the connection method may be welding, bonding, or snapping.

[0040] In the embodiment where the heat insulation frame 3 is connected to the panel 1 at a position corresponding to the groove 11 , the heat insulation frame 3 may be connected to at least one of the groove bottom and / or groove wall of the groove 11 .

The end of the protrusion 31 away from the thermal insulation frame 3 has a first snap that cooperates with the first snap-in groove. The first snap-in groove and the first snap-in cooperate to achieve the connection between the groove 11 and the thermal insulation frame 3. Optionally, the first snap-in groove is a directional snap-in.

[0042] Optionally, the first card slot can be opened continuously along the circumference of the air outlet, or can be opened discontinuously along the circumference of the air outlet. In the embodiment where the first card slot is opened continuously along the circumference of the air outlet, the protrusion 31 can be set continuously along the circumference of the heat insulation frame 3, and the first buckle can be set continuously or discontinuously along the circumference of the heat insulation frame 3; in the embodiment where the first card slot is opened continuously along the circumference of the air outlet, the protrusion 31 can be set discontinuously along the circumference of the heat insulation frame 3, and the first buckle can be set discontinuously along the circumference of the heat insulation frame 3; in the embodiment where the first card slot is opened discontinuously along the circumference of the air outlet, the protrusion 31 can be set continuously along the circumference of the heat insulation frame 3, and the first buckle can be set continuously or discontinuously along the circumference of the heat insulation frame 3; in the embodiment where the first card slot is opened discontinuously along the circumference of the air outlet, the protrusion 31 can be set discontinuously along the circumference of the heat insulation frame 3, and the first buckle can be set discontinuously along the circumference of the heat insulation frame 3.

[0043] The heat insulation frame 3 and the panel 1 are connected by snap-fitting, which reduces the difficulty of installing and disassembling the heat insulation frame 3 and the panel 1.

[0044] In some embodiments, the insulation frame 3 is connected to the bottom of the groove 11 by screws. Specifically, the bottom of the groove 11 has a threaded hole, and the insulation frame 3 is provided with a screw. The screw passes through the insulation frame 3 and is connected to the threaded hole.

[0045] In some embodiments, the insulation frame 3 is connected to the groove wall of the groove 11. Specifically, the insulation frame 3 has a connecting plate corresponding to the position of the groove wall of the groove 11. The connecting plate and the groove wall of the groove 11 can be snap-connected, bonded, or interference-fitted.

[0046] In some embodiments, the connection between the insulation frame 3 and the groove 11 adopts a combination of the above-mentioned embodiments, for example, the insulation frame 3 is snap-connected to the bottom of the groove 11, and the insulation frame 3 has a connecting plate corresponding to the position of the groove wall of the groove 11, and the insulation frame 3 is snap-connected to the groove wall of the groove 11 through the connecting plate, or bonded or interference fit.

[0047] In an embodiment in which the insulation frame 3 is snap-connected to the groove wall of the groove 11 through a connecting plate, the end of the connecting plate away from the insulation frame 3 has a second snap, and the groove wall of the groove 11 has a second snap groove, and the snap connection between the connecting plate and the groove 11 is achieved by the cooperation of the second snap groove and the second snap groove.

[0048] The connection between the heat insulation frame 3 and the groove 11 is not limited to the above embodiment, and can also be other connection forms, which are not specifically limited here.

[0049] The thickness direction of the insulation cavity is the same as the depth direction of the groove 11, the width direction of the insulation cavity is the same as the width direction of the groove 11, the thickness of the insulation cavity is the dimension of the insulation cavity along the depth direction of the groove 11, and the width of the insulation cavity is the dimension of the insulation cavity along the width direction of the groove 11.

[0050] In some embodiments, the thickness of the insulating cavity is at least 5 mm, and / or the width of the insulating cavity is at least 5 mm.

[0051] In some embodiments, at least one partition 4 is provided on at least one of the groove 11 and the insulation frame 3 , and the partition 4 is used to separate the insulation cavity.

[0052] Specifically, the partition plate 4 may be provided only in the groove 11 , or only on the heat insulation frame 3 , or on both the groove 11 and the heat insulation frame 3 .

[0053] In the embodiment where the partition 4 is provided in the groove 11 , the partition 4 may be provided along the length direction of the groove 11 , along the width direction of the groove 11 , or along both the length direction and the width direction of the groove 11 .

[0054] In the embodiment where the partition 4 is disposed along the length of the groove 11, the partition 4 divides the insulation cavity into multiple cavities along the width of the groove 11, and the cooling energy is sequentially transferred through the multiple cavities disposed along the width of the groove 11. Optionally, the width of the partition 4 is at least equal to the depth of the groove 11.

[0055] In the embodiment where the partition 4 is disposed along the width direction of the groove 11 , the partition 4 divides the annular cavity into multiple cavity sections, thereby reducing the flow of gas between adjacent cavities.

[0056] In an embodiment in which a partition 4 is provided on the insulation frame 3, the partition 4 can extend into the groove 11 when the insulation frame 3 is connected to the panel 1. The partition 4 can be provided along the length direction of the groove 11, or along the width direction of the groove 11, or along both the length direction and the width direction of the groove 11.

[0057] Preferably, the partition 4 is integrally connected to the panel 1 or the insulation frame 3 .

[0058] The horizontal swing page 2 can swing to fixed angles, which are 45°, 80°, 90° and 130°. The horizontal swing page 2 can also swing up and down in a cycle.

[0059] In this solution, a temperature measuring component is provided on the traverse page 2, which is used to measure the dew point temperature T of the traverse page 2 near the insulation frame 3. 露 And the outlet temperature T 出 , the temperature measurement component is communicatively connected with the controller.

[0060] The controller is used to 露 -T 出 ≤3℃, control the horizontal swing page 2 to operate in anti-condensation mode and at T 露 -T 出 When the temperature is higher than 3°C, the traverse page 2 is controlled to operate in a mode before the anti-condensation mode. In the anti-condensation mode, the traverse page 2 operates at a first preset angle for a first preset time.

[0061] In some embodiments, in the anti-condensation mode, the horizontal leaf 2 swings to a fixed angle, the first preset angle is 80° or 90°, and the first preset time is 2 minutes to 3 minutes.

[0062] By changing the angle of the transverse leaf 2, the air guide angle of the transverse leaf 2 is changed, and the air outlet toward the insulation frame 3 is reduced, so as to reduce the temperature difference between the temperature of the position of the transverse leaf 2 close to the insulation frame 3 and the air outlet temperature, so that the temperature around the transverse leaf does not reach the condensation temperature, thereby preventing condensation from occurring.

[0063] After the anti-condensation mode is finished, the mode of the traverse page 2 is restored to the mode before entering the anti-condensation mode.

[0064] In cooling mode, the temperature measuring component measures the dew point temperature T every 5-10 minutes. 露 And the outlet temperature T 出 Measurement is performed to determine whether it is necessary to control the traverse page 2 to run in the anti-condensation mode. If necessary, the controller controls the traverse page 2 to run in the anti-condensation mode. If not, the controller does not control the traverse page 2 to run in the anti-condensation mode.

[0065] This solution combines the heat-insulating cavity with the operating mode of adjusting the traverse leaf 2 to improve condensation on the panel 1 .

[0066] In some embodiments, the temperature measurement assembly includes a dry-bulb temperature sensor and a wet-bulb temperature sensor disposed near the heat insulation frame 3 of the traverse page 2, and a temperature sensor disposed in the middle of the traverse page 2, wherein the dry-bulb temperature sensor and the wet-bulb temperature sensor cooperate to measure the dew point temperature T 露 , the measured dew point temperature is more accurate and the feedback is more timely. The temperature sensor is used to measure the outlet temperature T 出 .

[0067] The temperature measuring component is not limited to the above embodiment, and can also be in other forms, which are not specifically limited here.

[0068] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present application and an illustration of the technical principles employed, and is not intended to limit the present application.
