Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0043] An air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, the air conditioner 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 1 , a first upper air guide plate 3 and a first lower air guide plate 4 .
[0045] Specifically, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, the air conditioner 100 can be a vertical wall-mounted air conditioner or a floor-standing air conditioner. The housing 1 has an air outlet 11 extending in the vertical direction. The housing 1 forms the overall appearance of the air conditioner 100. An air outlet duct 14 is formed within the housing 1, and the air outlet 11 communicates with the air outlet duct 14. The housing 1 may also have an air inlet 16, which communicates with the air outlet duct 14 to allow air to enter the air outlet duct 14 through the air inlet 16.
[0046] like Figure 1-Figure 5In the example shown, a heat exchanger 21 and a crossflow impeller 22 are further provided in the housing 1. In the direction of airflow in the outlet duct 14, the heat exchanger 21 is located upstream of the crossflow impeller 22. The heat exchanger 21 is used to exchange heat with the airflow passing through its surface, and the crossflow impeller 22 is used to drive the airflow from the air inlet 16 to the air outlet 11. During the specific operation of the air conditioner 100, driven by the crossflow impeller 22, outside air will enter the outlet duct 14 in the housing 1 from the air inlet 16. After heat exchange in the heat exchanger 21, the heat-exchanged air can flow out of the air conditioner 100 from the air outlet 11 under the guidance of the first upper air guide plate 3 and the first lower air guide plate 4, thereby ensuring the cooling, heating, and air supply functions of the air conditioner 100.
[0047] Furthermore, the air outlet 11 includes a first air outlet area 111 and a second air outlet area 112, with the first air outlet area 111 located above the second air outlet area 112. Multiple first upper air guide plates 3 are spaced apart vertically and rotatably disposed in the first air outlet area 111 to open or close the first air outlet area 111. The rotation axes of the first upper air guide plates 3 extend along the width of the air outlet 11. Multiple first lower air guide plates 4 are spaced apart across the width of the air outlet 11 and rotatably disposed in the second air outlet area 112 to open or close the second air outlet area 112. The rotation axes of the first lower air guide plates 4 extend along the vertical direction.
[0048] As can be understood, dividing the air outlet 11 into a first air outlet area 111 and a second air outlet area 112, which are arranged vertically, facilitates the placement of the first upper air guide plate 3 and the first lower air guide plate 4, whose rotation axes are perpendicular to each other, at the air outlet 11, resulting in a rational structural arrangement. The first upper air guide plate 3 can rotate about a rotation axis extending in the left-right direction to open or close the first air outlet area 111, and the airflow angle in the first air outlet area 111 can be adjusted vertically. The first lower air guide plate 4 can rotate about a rotation axis extending in the vertical direction to open or close the second air outlet area 112, and the airflow angle in the second air outlet area 112 can be adjusted horizontally. The first upper air guide plate 3 and the first lower air guide plate 4 cooperate with each other to achieve the function and effect of air outlet in different directions of the air conditioner 100, thereby achieving different air supply states of the air conditioner 100, improving the richness of the air outlet effects of the air conditioner 100, meeting the diverse needs of users, and thereby enhancing user comfort and experience.
[0049] The first upper air guide plate 3 has a plurality of spaced-apart first micropores 31, and the first lower air guide plate 4 has a plurality of spaced-apart second micropores 41. When air flows through the first upper air guide plate 3 with the first micropores 31 or the first lower air guide plate 4 with the second micropores 41, the first micropores 31 and the second micropores 41 break up and refine the airflow, converting it into a finer air flow. The airflow becomes more uniform, delicate, and gentle, facilitating a windless airflow effect of the air conditioner 100, thereby satisfying the user's need for a windless airflow and improving the user's comfort and experience.
[0050] For example, Figure 3-Figure 8 In the example shown, when the user has a cooling demand but does not want to blow air, the first upper air guide plate 3 moves to the position of closing the first air outlet area 111, and the first lower air guide plate 4 also moves to the position of closing the second air outlet area 112. When the air conditioner 100 blows out air, the airflow in the air outlet duct 14 passes through the first upper air guide plate 3 and the first lower air guide plate 4 and then blows out the air outlet 11. The airflow is broken up and forms an airflow dispersion under the action of the first micropores 31 and the second micropores 41, which can improve the turbulent state of the airflow flow process, and at the same time can reduce the airflow velocity and improve the flexibility of the airflow flow, so that the airflow will not blow directly towards the user after being blown out of the air outlet 11. In this way, the air conditioner 100 can achieve a windless air outlet effect to meet the needs of the user, thereby improving the user's comfort and experience.
[0051] Furthermore, if Figure 9 and Figure 10 In the example shown, when a user requires cooling but does not want to blow air and requires a high air volume, the first lower air guide plate 4 moves to a position that closes the second air outlet area 112. The upper end of the first upper air guide plate 3 can be rotated a certain angle toward the outside of the air outlet. At this time, the upper end of the first upper air guide plate 3 is tilted toward the outside of the air outlet 11, that is, the upper end of the first upper air guide plate 3 slightly opens the first air outlet area 111. The majority of the airflow in the air outlet duct 14 passes through the first upper air guide plate 3 and the first lower air guide plate 4 and is blown out of the air outlet 11. The airflow is broken up by the first micropores 31 and the second micropores 41 to form a diffused airflow, ensuring the windless airflow effect of the air conditioner 100. At the same time, a small portion of the airflow in the air outlet duct 14 is blown diagonally upward and out of the first air outlet area 111 under the guidance of the first upper air guide plate 3. This increases the air volume without affecting the windless airflow effect.
[0052] When the upper end of the first upper air guide plate 3 opens the first air outlet area 111, the airflow increases, enhancing indoor airflow and effectively reducing cooling loss, thereby improving the cooling effect and increasing indoor temperature uniformity, further enhancing user comfort and experience. It also reduces the wind resistance at the air outlet 11. While the speed of the crossflow impeller 22 remains unchanged, the airflow at the air outlet 11 increases, shortening the heat exchange time between the airflow in the housing 1 and the heat exchanger 21, preventing the airflow from being too low in temperature, thereby reducing the occurrence of condensation.
[0053] In addition, the air volume of the air conditioner 100 in the windless mode can be adjusted by adjusting the rotation angle of the first upper air guide plate 3, thereby meeting different needs of users.
[0054] It should be noted that the cross-section of the first micropore 31 and the second micropore 41 can be in the shape of a circle, a polygon or a long strip, i.e., a slit, etc. The specific shape is not limited here. For example, Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the example shown, the cross-sections of the first micropores 31 and the second micropores 41 are diamond-shaped, which has a simple structure and is easy to process.
[0055] Furthermore, a plurality of first micropores 31 can be arranged in an array on the first upper air guide plate 3. This allows for as many first micropores 31 as possible to be arranged on the first upper air guide plate 3 while ensuring the structural strength of the first upper air guide plate 3. This ensures sufficient ventilation without affecting the airflow dispersion of the first upper air guide plate 3, thereby ensuring the airflow out of the first air outlet area 111. Similarly, a plurality of second micropores 41 can be arranged in an array on the first lower air guide plate 4. This allows for as many second micropores 41 as possible to be arranged on the first lower air guide plate 4 while ensuring the structural strength of the first lower air guide plate 4. This ensures sufficient ventilation without affecting the airflow dispersion of the first lower air guide plate 4, thereby ensuring the airflow out of the second air outlet area 112.
[0056] According to the air conditioner 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, the air outlet 11 is divided into a first air outlet area 111 and a second air outlet area 112, which are distributed vertically. A plurality of first upper air guide plates 3 are provided in the vertical direction in the first air outlet area 111, and a plurality of second upper air guide plates 5 are provided in the horizontal direction in the second air outlet area 112. Furthermore, the first upper air guide plate 3 has a plurality of spaced-apart first micropores 31, and the first lower air guide plate 4 has a plurality of spaced-apart second micropores 41. This allows the air conditioner 100 to achieve a windless air outlet effect. Furthermore, the upper end of the first upper air guide plate 3 can be tilted toward the outside of the air outlet 11 at a certain angle to slightly open the first air outlet area. This can reduce the wind resistance at the air outlet 11 and increase the air volume, thereby effectively reducing cooling loss. At the same time, it can enhance indoor air flow, thereby improving the cooling effect and increasing indoor temperature uniformity, thereby improving user comfort and experience.
[0057] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 7-10 As shown, the air conditioner 100 further includes a first connecting rod 81 , which extends in the up-down direction. The first connecting rod 81 is rotatably connected to the plurality of first upper air guide plates 3 for synchronous rotation of the plurality of first upper air guide plates 3 .
[0058] It is understood that the first upper air deflectors 3 are arranged in a plurality at intervals in the vertical direction, and the first connecting rod 81 is provided with a plurality of first support rods 811. The plurality of first support rods 811 correspond one-to-one with the plurality of first upper air deflectors 3. The plurality of first upper air deflectors 3 are rotatably connected to the plurality of first support rods 811, thereby enabling synchronous rotation of the plurality of first upper air deflectors 3. By moving the first connecting rod 81 in the vertical direction, the plurality of first upper air deflectors 3 can be driven to synchronously rotate about a rotation axis extending in the horizontal direction, thereby enabling the first upper air deflectors 3 to guide air in the vertical direction.
[0059] Furthermore, if Figure 9 and Figure 10 In the example shown, the first connecting rod 81 is rotatably connected to the lower ends of multiple first upper air guide plates 3. When the first connecting rod 81 moves upward, it can drive the lower ends of multiple first upper air guide plates 3 to move toward the inside of the air outlet 11 and obliquely upward. The first upper air guide plate 3 rotates around the rotation axis between it and the shell 1, so that the upper end of the first upper air guide plate 3 opens the first air outlet area 111. Part of the airflow can flow out of the first air outlet area 111 obliquely upward under the guidance of the first upper air guide plate 3, thereby increasing the air outlet volume while achieving windless air outlet.
[0060] In addition, by making the first upper air guide plates 3 spaced apart along the length direction of the air outlet 11, the airflow in the first air outlet area 111 is guided by multiple first upper air guide plates 3 and then flows out, thereby improving the uniformity of the outflowing airflow and better meeting the user's usage needs.
[0061] In some embodiments of the present invention, the air conditioner 100 further includes a first drive mechanism, which is rotatably connected to the first upper air deflector 3 or the first connecting rod 81 and is configured to drive the rotation of the plurality of first upper air deflectors 3. The first drive mechanism may be disposed on the housing 1 and may drive the first connecting rod 81 to move in an up-down direction, thereby causing the plurality of first upper air deflectors 3 to rotate synchronously, thereby achieving automated rotation of the first upper air deflectors 3 and improving user comfort.
[0062] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 、 Figures 5-10 As shown, the air conditioner 100 also includes a second upper air guide plate 5, which is a plurality of second upper air guide plates 5 spaced apart along the width direction of the air outlet 11. The plurality of second upper air guide plates 5 are rotatably disposed in the first air outlet area 111. The rotation axis of the second upper air guide plate 5 extends in the vertical direction. In the direction of airflow, the second upper air guide plate 5 is located upstream of the first upper air guide plate 3. The second upper air guide plate 5 can rotate about the rotation axis extending in the vertical direction, thereby adjusting the airflow angle in the first air outlet area 111 in the left-right direction. In addition, by providing a plurality of second upper air guide plates 5 spaced apart along the width direction of the air outlet 11, the airflow in the air outlet duct 14 is guided by the plurality of second upper air guide plates 5 before flowing out through the first upper air guide plate 3. This further improves the uniformity of the outflowing airflow, thereby better meeting the user's usage needs and improving the air supply effect.
[0063] At the same time, the first upper air guide plate 3 and the second upper air guide plate 5 cooperate with each other to realize the function and effect of the air conditioner 100 to discharge air in different directions in the first air outlet area 111, which helps to realize different air supply states of the first air outlet area 111, improve the richness of the air outlet effect of the first air outlet area 111, and can meet the diverse needs of users, thereby improving the user's comfort and experience.
[0064] In some embodiments, the air conditioner 100 further includes a third drive mechanism 72 connected to the second upper air deflectors 5 for driving the rotation of the plurality of second upper air deflectors 5. The third drive mechanism 72 can be disposed on the housing 1 and can provide a driving force for the synchronous rotation of the plurality of second upper air deflectors 5, thereby achieving automated rotation of the second upper air deflectors 5 and improving user comfort.
[0065] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7 and Figure 9As shown, the air conditioner 100 further includes a transverse rib 12, which is provided in the air outlet 11 to separate the first air outlet area 111 from the second air outlet area 112. The first lower air guide plate 4 is rotatably provided on the transverse rib 12. The transverse rib 12 extends along the width direction of the air outlet 11, and both ends of the transverse rib 12 in the length direction are respectively connected to the housing 1, which can improve the structural strength of the housing 1 at the air outlet and effectively reduce the risk of deformation of the air outlet 11. In the vertical direction, one end of the first lower air guide plate 4 is rotatably connected to the housing 1, and the other end is rotatably connected to the transverse rib 12. By providing the transverse rib 12, it is convenient to rotatably provide the first lower air guide plate 4 in the second air outlet area 112, which can enhance the connection strength and rotational stability of the first lower air guide plate 4 and the housing 1, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the air conditioner 100.
[0066] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 6-Figure 9 As shown, the air conditioner 100 also includes a second lower air guide plate 6, which is a plurality of second lower air guide plates 6 spaced apart in the up and down directions. The plurality of second lower air guide plates 6 are rotatably arranged in the second air outlet area 112, and the rotation axis of the second lower air guide plate 6 extends in the up and down directions. Along the direction of air flow, the second lower air guide plate 6 is located upstream of the first lower air guide plate 4.
[0067] The second lower air guide plate 6 can rotate about a rotation axis extending in the left-right direction, thereby adjusting the airflow angle in the vertical direction at the second air outlet area 112. In addition, by providing a plurality of second lower air guide plates 6 spaced apart in the vertical direction, the airflow in the air outlet duct 14 is guided by the plurality of second lower air guide plates 6 before flowing out through the first lower air guide plate 4. This further improves the uniformity of the outflowing airflow, thereby better meeting the user's needs and improving the air supply effect.
[0068] At the same time, the first lower air guide plate 4 and the first lower air guide plate 4 cooperate with each other to realize the function and effect of the air conditioner 100 to discharge air in different directions in the second air outlet area 112, which helps to realize different air supply states of the second air outlet area 112, improve the richness of the air outlet effect of the second air outlet area 112, and can meet the diverse needs of users, thereby improving the user's comfort and experience.
[0069] In some embodiments, as Figure 7-11As shown, the air conditioner 100 further includes a second connecting rod 82, a third connecting rod 83, and a second driving mechanism 71. The second connecting rod 82 and the third connecting rod 83 extend in the vertical direction. The third connecting rod 83 is rotatably connected to one end of the plurality of second lower air deflectors 6, and the second connecting rod 82 is rotatably connected to the other end of the plurality of second lower air deflectors 6, so as to synchronize the rotation of the plurality of second lower air deflectors 6. The second driving mechanism 71 is rotatably connected to the second lower air deflectors 6 or the second connecting rod 82, so as to drive the plurality of second lower air deflectors 6 to rotate.
[0070] It can be understood that the second driving mechanism 71 can be provided on the shell 1, which can drive the second connecting rod 82 to move in the up and down directions, thereby driving multiple second lower air guide plates 6 to rotate synchronously, and can realize the automatic rotation of the upper air guide plate 9, thereby improving the user's comfort.
[0071] There are multiple second lower air guide plates 6 arranged at intervals along the up and down directions, the third connecting rod 83 is fixedly connected to the shell 1, and the rotation axes of the multiple second lower air guide plates 6 and the second connecting rod 82 extend along the left and right directions. The rotation axes of the multiple second lower air guide plates 6 and the third connecting rod 83 also extend along the left and right directions. The second driving mechanism 71 drives the second connecting rod 82 to move in the up and down directions, and can simultaneously drive the multiple second lower air guide plates 6 to rotate synchronously around the rotation axis extending along the left and right directions. At the same time, the end of the second lower air guide plate 6 close to the second connecting rod 82 moves up and down with the second connecting rod 82, thereby realizing the wind guiding of the second lower air guide plate 6 in the up and down directions.
[0072] For example, the second connecting rod 82 is rotatably connected to one end of the plurality of second lower air guide plates 6 facing away from the air outlet 11, and the third connecting rod 83 is rotatably connected to one end of the plurality of second lower air guide plates 6 near the air outlet 11. When the second connecting rod 82 moves upward, it can drive the ends of the plurality of second lower air guide plates 6 facing away from the air outlet 11 to move upward, so that the second lower air guide plates 6 tilt downward in the direction from the inside to the outside of the air outlet 11. Under the guidance of the second lower air guide plates 6, part of the air flow can flow out of the first air outlet area 111 obliquely and downward, thereby achieving the adjustment of the air outlet angle of the second air outlet area 112 in the vertical direction.
[0073] In addition, by making the second lower air guide plates 6 spaced apart along the length direction of the air outlet 11, so that the airflow in the air outlet duct 14 is guided by multiple second lower air guide plates 6 and then flows through multiple first lower air guide plates 4 and flows out of the second air outlet area 112, the uniformity of the outflowing airflow can be improved, thereby better meeting the user's usage needs.
[0074] In some embodiments, the air conditioner 100 further includes a fourth drive mechanism connected to the first lower air deflectors 4 for driving the rotation of the plurality of first lower air deflectors 4. The fourth drive mechanism may be disposed on the housing 1 and may provide a driving force for the synchronous rotation of the plurality of first lower air deflectors 4, thereby achieving automated rotation of the first lower air deflectors 4 and improving user comfort.
[0075] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 7-10 As shown, the air outlet 11 also includes a third air outlet area 113, which is located above the first air outlet area 111. The air conditioner 100 also includes an upper air guide plate 9, which is fixed within the third air outlet area 113. The air outlet end of the upper air guide plate 9 is tilted upward. Therefore, when the first upper air guide plate 3 moves to a position closing the first air outlet area 111 and the first lower air guide plate 4 also moves to a position closing the second air outlet area 112, the airflow is broken up by the first micropores 31 and the second micropores 41 to form a dispersed airflow, thereby ensuring a windless airflow effect of the air conditioner 100. At the same time, part of the airflow within the air outlet duct 14 is blown diagonally upward out of the third air outlet area 113 under the guidance of the upper air guide plate 9, thereby increasing the airflow volume.
[0076] By providing third outlet area 113, the airflow is increased, enhancing indoor airflow and effectively reducing cooling losses, thereby improving cooling efficiency and indoor temperature uniformity, further enhancing user comfort and experience. It also reduces wind resistance at outlet 11. While maintaining the same speed of crossflow impeller 22, the airflow at outlet 11 is increased, shortening the heat exchange time between the airflow in housing 1 and heat exchanger 21, preventing the airflow from reaching excessively low outlet temperatures and reducing condensation.
[0077] In addition, the upper air guide plate 9 is located at the upper end of the air outlet 11 and the air outlet end of the upper air guide plate 9 is tilted upward, thereby guiding the airflow to blow out from above the air outlet 11 toward the upper side, which can increase the distance of the airflow flow, thereby achieving longer-distance air supply and accelerating the cooling speed of the air conditioner 100 at a remote location. While ensuring the windless air outlet effect, the distance of the airflow flow can be increased, and the air supply distance and long-distance air supply effect of the air conditioner 100 can be enhanced, thereby improving the indoor cooling efficiency and improving the comfort of users far away from the air conditioner 100.
[0078] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 7-10 As shown, the upper air guide plates 9 are spaced apart in the vertical direction. The airflow from the air outlet duct 14 is guided by the multiple upper air guide plates 9 and then flows out of the third air outlet area 113, which can improve the uniformity of the outflowing airflow and enhance the air supply effect of the air conditioner 100, thereby better meeting the user's usage needs.
[0079] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 7-10 As shown, the top wall 114 of the air outlet 11 is inclined upward in the direction toward the outside of the air outlet 11. This can guide the airflow to be blown out from above the air outlet 11 in an obliquely upward direction, thereby increasing the distance of the airflow flow, thereby achieving longer-distance air supply and accelerating the cooling speed at a remote location of the air conditioner 100. While ensuring a windless air outlet effect, the airflow distance can be increased, enhancing the air supply distance and long-distance air supply effect of the air conditioner 100, thereby improving the indoor cooling efficiency and enhancing the comfort of users located remotely from the air conditioner 100.
[0080] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2-Figure 8 As shown, the air conditioner 100 has a first windless mode. In the first windless mode, the first upper air guide plate 3 closes the first air outlet area 111. At this time, the first lower air guide plate 4 also moves to the position of closing the second air outlet area 112, and the air conditioner 100 discharges air. The airflow in the air outlet duct 14 passes through the first upper air guide plate 3 and the first lower air guide plate 4 and then blows out the air outlet 11. The airflow is broken up and formed into a dispersed flow under the action of the first micropores 31 and the second micropores 41, which can improve the turbulent state of the airflow flow process, and at the same time reduce the airflow velocity and improve the flexibility of the airflow flow, so that the airflow will not blow directly towards the user after being blown out of the air outlet 11. In this way, the windless air outlet effect of the air conditioner 100 can be achieved to meet the needs of the user, thereby improving the user's comfort and experience.
[0081] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the air conditioner 100 has a second windless mode. In the second windless mode, the upper end of the first upper air guide plate 3 opens the first air outlet area 111. This can meet the user's demand for windless cooling while also meeting the demand for large air volume. At this time, the first lower air guide plate 4 moves to the position of closing the second air outlet area 112, and the upper end of the first upper air guide plate 3 tilts toward the outside of the air outlet 11. Most of the airflow in the air outlet duct 14 is blown out of the air outlet 11 through the first upper air guide plate 3 and the first lower air guide plate 4. The airflow is broken up by the first micropores 31 and the second micropores 41 to form a dispersed airflow, thereby ensuring the windless air outlet effect of the air conditioner 100. At the same time, a small part of the airflow in the air outlet duct 14 is blown out of the first air outlet area 111 obliquely upward under the guidance of the first upper air guide plate 3, thereby increasing the air volume.
[0082] When the upper end of the first upper air guide plate 3 opens the first air outlet area 111, the airflow increases, enhancing indoor airflow and effectively reducing cooling loss, thereby improving the cooling effect and increasing indoor temperature uniformity, further enhancing user comfort and experience. It also reduces the wind resistance at the air outlet 11. While the speed of the crossflow impeller 22 remains unchanged, the airflow at the air outlet 11 increases, shortening the heat exchange time between the airflow in the housing 1 and the heat exchanger 21, preventing the airflow from being too low in temperature, thereby reducing the occurrence of condensation.
[0083] In addition, the air volume of the air conditioner 100 in the windless mode can be adjusted by adjusting the rotation angle of the first upper air guide plate 3, thereby meeting the user's needs for different air volumes.
[0084] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the housing 1 has a receiving cavity 13 on one side along the width direction of the air outlet 11. It can be understood that the receiving cavity 13 is provided in the housing 1. The housing 1 is connected to a door body 15, which is movably provided on the housing 1 in the width direction of the air outlet 11 for opening or closing the air outlet 11. When the door body 15 opens the air outlet 11, the door body 15 is located in the receiving cavity 13, realizing a hidden door body 15 structure.
[0085] It can be understood that when the door body 15 opens the air outlet 11, the door body 15 can be located on one side of the width direction of the air outlet 11 and at least partially located in the accommodating cavity 13. The airflow inside the air conditioner 100 can flow out through the air outlet 11, and the door body 15 can be stored in the shell 1, thereby improving the protection effect of the door body 15.
[0086] In some embodiments, the air conditioner 100 further includes a drive device 73 disposed on the housing 1 and connected to the door 15 for driving the door 15 to move. This allows for automated opening and closing of the door 15, facilitating user convenience and meeting user needs. A control module may be provided within the air conditioner 100, and the drive device 73 may be connected to the control module. The control module may control the operation of the drive device 73, thereby controlling the opening or closing of the door 15.
