[0026] The embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present disclosure, but should not be understood as limiting the present disclosure.

[0027] The housing assembly 300 for the air conditioner 100 of the disclosed embodiment has an air inlet 1 and an air outlet 2, with the air outlet 2 located above the air inlet 1. The housing assembly 300 includes a housing body 3, a front panel 4, and an air deflector 5. The front panel 4 is disposed at the front end of the housing body 3, below the air outlet 2. The front side surface 41 of the front panel extends from top to bottom and is arranged to be tilted backward. The air deflector 5 is disposed at the air outlet 2 and is rotatably connected to the housing body 3 to open and close the air outlet 2. When the air deflector 5 closes the air outlet 2, the angle between the front side surface 51 of the air deflector and the front side surface 41 of the front panel is obtuse.

[0028] Specifically, if Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the lower end of the shell assembly 300 is provided with an air inlet 1 with an opening facing downward, and the upper end of the shell assembly 300 is provided with an air outlet 2 with an opening facing forward, that is, the shell assembly 300 is used for the air conditioner 100 with air intake at the bottom and air outlet at the top. The air enters the shell assembly 300 through the air inlet 1 at the lower end of the shell assembly 300, exchanges heat with the evaporator 200, and is discharged through the air outlet 2 at the upper end of the shell assembly 300.

[0029] The front panel 4 is spaced apart from the air deflector 5 in the vertical direction, and the front panel 4 is located below the air deflector 5. The front panel 4 is provided at the front end of the housing body 3, and the front side surface 41 of the front panel forms the front end face of the housing assembly 300. The front side surface 41 of the front panel extends from top to bottom and is arranged to be inclined rearward. In other words, the front side surface 41 of the front panel is an inclined surface that is inclined rearward from top to bottom, and the upper end of the front side surface 41 of the front panel is located forward of the lower end of the front side surface 41 of the front panel.

[0030] The wind guide plate 5 is located at the upper end of the front panel 4. The wind guide plate 5 is arranged at the air outlet 2. The rotation axis of the wind guide plate 5 extends in the left and right directions. The wind guide plate 5 is rotatably connected to the shell body 3 so that the wind guide plate 5 can rotate in the left and right directions relative to the shell body 3 to realize the opening and closing of the air outlet 2.

[0031] When the air deflector 5 closes the air outlet 2, the angle between the front side surface 51 of the air deflector and the front side surface 41 of the front panel is an obtuse angle, including: the front side surface 51 of the air deflector is a vertical surface; or, the front side surface 51 of the air deflector is an inclined surface inclined from top to bottom and backward, and the inclination angle of the front side surface 51 of the air deflector is different from the inclination angle of the front side surface 41 of the front panel; or, the front side surface 51 of the air deflector is an inclined surface inclined from bottom to top and forward.

[0032] For example, the obtuse angle α is 100°, 130°, 150°, or 170°.

[0033] In the shell assembly 300 for the air conditioner 100 of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the front side surface 41 of the front panel extends in a direction from top to bottom and is arranged to be tilted backward, and the opening direction of the air outlet 2 is facing forward and is located above the front panel 4. By setting the angle between the front side surface 51 of the air guide plate and the front side surface 41 of the front panel to an obtuse angle, the airflow flowing out through the air outlet 2 flows along the extension direction of the air guide plate 5 and the extension direction of the front side surface 41 of the front panel, which facilitates the front side surface 41 of the front panel to guide the airflow to flow obliquely downward along the front side surface 41 of the front panel, making it easier for the airflow to fall to the ground, avoiding direct blowing of the airflow, and improving user comfort and experience.

[0034] In some embodiments, when the air guide plate 5 closes the air outlet 2 , the front side surface 51 of the air guide plate is a vertical surface.

[0035] Specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, when the air guide plate 5 closes the air outlet 2, the angle between the front side surface 51 of the air guide plate and the horizontal plane is 90 degrees, and the angle between the front side surface 51 of the air guide plate and the front side surface 41 of the front panel is the sum of the inclination angle of the front side surface 41 of the front panel and 90 degrees. The lower end of the front side surface 51 of the air guide plate and the upper end of the front side surface 41 of the front panel are collinear in the front-to-back direction, that is, the front side surface 51 of the air guide plate is located in front of the lower end of the front side surface 41 of the front panel, which facilitates the airflow to flow downward along the extension direction of the front side surface 41 of the front panel, thereby improving the airflow landing effect.

[0036] In some embodiments, when the air guide plate 5 closes the air outlet 2, the height of the air guide plate 5 in the vertical direction is A, and the height of the front panel 4 in the vertical direction is B, wherein the ratio of B to A is 1.8-2.4.

[0037] Specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, the height of the air guide plate 5 in the vertical direction is smaller than the height of the front panel 4 in the vertical direction. By limiting the ratio of the height of the front panel 4 in the vertical direction to the height of the air guide plate 5 in the vertical direction, it helps to optimize the airflow path, guide the airflow to be evenly distributed, improve the efficiency of the air conditioner 100 and improve the comfort.

[0038] For example, the ratio of B to A is 1.8, 1.9, 2, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, and 2.4.

[0039] In some embodiments, A is 88 mm-124 mm.

[0040] In this embodiment, the height of the air guide plate 5 in the vertical direction is specifically limited to avoid the height of the air guide plate 5 in the vertical direction being too large, resulting in uneven airflow distribution and the occurrence of local temperatures being too low or too high. At the same time, the height of the air guide plate 5 in the vertical direction is avoided to be too small, which limits the flow range of the airflow and reduces the efficiency of the air conditioner 100. By setting the height of the air guide plate 5 in the vertical direction within a reasonable range, the airflow is ensured to be evenly distributed and the efficiency of the air conditioner 100 is improved.

[0041] For example, the value of A is 88mm, 90mm, 95mm, 100mm, 115mm, 120mm, 123mm, and 124mm.

[0042] In some embodiments, B is 182 mm-234 mm.

[0043] In this embodiment, the height of the front panel 4 in the up and down directions is specifically limited to avoid the height of the front panel 4 in the up and down directions being too large, which would hinder the flow of airflow, and at the same time avoid the height of the wind guide plate 5 in the up and down directions being too small, which would fail to have a guiding effect. By setting the height of the front panel 4 in the up and down directions within a reasonable range, the front panel 4 can better guide the flow of airflow, improve the uniformity of airflow distribution, and thus improve comfort.

[0044] For example, the value of B is 182mm, 190mm, 195mm, 200mm, 215mm, 220mm, 225mm, 230mm, and 234mm.

[0045] In some embodiments, the housing assembly 300 for the air conditioner 100 further includes a rocker arm 6 , one end of which is rotatably connected to the air guide plate 5 , and the other end of which is rotatably connected to the inner wall surface of the housing body 3 .

[0046] Specifically, if Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the rear end of the rocker arm 6 is rotatably connected to the inner wall surface of the housing body 3, so that the rocker arm 6 can rotate relative to the housing body 3. The rotation of the rocker arm 6 drives the front end of the rocker arm 6 to extend out of the air outlet 2. Since the front end of the rocker arm 6 is connected to the air guide plate 5, the air guide plate 5 is moved to the outside of the air outlet 2. The front end of the rocker arm 6 is rotatably connected to the air guide plate 5. The air guide plate 5 can rotate left and right relative to the rocker arm 6. The rotation of the air guide plate 5 changes the flow direction of the airflow.

[0047] In this embodiment, the rear end of the rocker arm 6 is rotatably connected to the shell body 3 and the front end of the rocker arm 6 is rotatably connected to the air guide plate 5, so that the rocker arm 6 is rotated relative to the shell body 3 to move the air guide plate 5 to the outside of the air outlet 2. The arrangement of the air guide plate 5 outside the air outlet 2 can, on the one hand, increase the air guiding range of the air guide plate 5, and on the other hand, help the air guide plate 5 change the direction and speed of the airflow, facilitate the adjustment of the air outlet angle, avoid direct blowing of the airflow, enhance the air supply effect, and thus reduce energy consumption.

[0048] In some embodiments, the air guide plate 5 has a first extreme position of upward movement. At the first extreme position, a distance L3 between the frontmost edge of the rocker arm 6 and the rearmost edge of the rocker arm 6 is 80 mm-120 mm.

[0049] Specifically, if Figure 2As shown, after the air guide plate 5 extends out of the air outlet 2 and rotates upward in the left and right directions to the first extreme position, the distance between the front edge of the rocker arm 6 and the rear edge of the rocker arm 6 is the maximum distance of the rocker arm 6 in the front-to-back direction. In this embodiment, the distance between the front edge of the rocker arm 6 and the rear edge of the rocker arm 6 is limited, and then the air flow direction of the first extreme position is limited by the air guide plate 5, so that the airflow flows out along the gap between the air guide plate 5 and the lower edge of the air outlet 2, which facilitates the front side surface 41 of the front panel to guide the airflow and improve the landing effect of the airflow.

[0050] It can be understood that the first limit position is the minimum angle at which the air guide plate 5 rotates upward in the heating mode of the air conditioner 100 .

[0051] For example, the value of L3 is 80mm, 85mm, 90mm, 95mm, 100mm, 110mm, and 120mm.

[0052] In some embodiments, the air deflector 5 has a first extreme position of upward movement. At the first extreme position, a distance L4 between the front edge of the rocker arm 6 and the top end of the front panel 4 is 30 mm to 50 mm.

[0053] Specifically, if Figure 2 As shown, by limiting the distance between the front edge of the rocker arm 6 and the top of the front panel 4, it is convenient to limit the air outlet angle of the air outlet 2 at the first extreme position through the air guide plate 5, and then facilitate the front side surface 41 of the front panel to guide the airflow, thereby improving the airflow landing effect.

[0054] For example, the value of L4 is 30mm, 35mm, 40mm, and 50mm.

[0055] In some embodiments, the air guide plate 5 has a second extreme position of downward movement. At the second extreme position, a distance L3 ′ between the frontmost edge of the rocker arm 6 and the rearmost edge of the rocker arm 6 is 90 mm-120 mm.

[0056] Specifically, if Figure 3As shown, after the air guide plate 5 extends out of the air outlet 2 and rotates downward in the left and right directions to the second extreme position, the distance between the front edge of the rocker arm 6 and the rear edge of the rocker arm 6 is the maximum distance of the rocker arm 6 in the front-to-back direction. In this embodiment, the distance between the front edge of the rocker arm 6 and the rear edge of the rocker arm 6 is limited, and then the air flow direction of the second extreme position is limited by the air guide plate 5, so that the airflow flows out along the gap between the air guide plate 5 and the upper edge of the air outlet 2. Through the guiding effect of the air guide plate 5 on the airflow and the setting of the upper edge of the air outlet 2 gradually tilting upward from left to right, a part of the airflow flows upward along the upper edge of the air outlet 2 and then flows forward along the surface of the ceiling, and drives the other part of the airflow to flow upward under the viscosity of the airflow, thereby realizing the upward flow of the airflow.

[0057] It can be understood that the second limit position is the maximum downward rotation angle of the air guide plate 5 in the cooling mode of the air conditioner 100.

[0058] For example, the value of L3' is 90mm, 95mm, 100mm, 110mm, and 120mm.

[0059] In some embodiments, the air deflector 5 has a second extreme position of downward movement. At the second extreme position, a distance L4 ′ between the front edge of the rocker arm 6 and the top end of the front panel 4 is 40 mm to 60 mm.

[0060] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown, by limiting the distance between the front edge of the rocker arm 6 and the top of the front panel 4, it is convenient to limit the air outlet angle of the air outlet 2 of the air guide plate 5 at the second extreme position, thereby facilitating the upward flow of air and improving the cooling efficiency.

[0061] For example, the value of L4' is 40mm, 45mm, 50mm, 55mm, and 60mm.

[0062] In some embodiments, when the air guide plate 5 closes the air outlet 2 , the distance L1 between the lower edge of the upper end of the rocker arm 6 and the top surface of the shell body 3 is 65 mm-88 mm.

[0063] Specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, by limiting the distance between the lower edge of the upper end of the rocker arm 6 and the top surface of the shell body 3 when the air guide plate 5 closes the air outlet 2, the distance and angle of the upper end of the rocker arm 6 extending out of the air outlet 2 when the rocker arm 6 rotates relative to the shell body 3 can be limited, and then the position of the air guide plate 5 outside the air outlet 2 can be limited, which is beneficial for the air guide plate 5 to guide the airflow, thereby improving the uniformity of the airflow distribution.

[0064] For example, when the air guide plate 5 closes the air outlet 2, the value of L1 is 65 mm, 70 mm, 75 mm, 80 mm, and 88 mm.

[0065] In some embodiments, the air guide plate 5 has a first extreme position of upward movement. At the first extreme position, a distance L1′ between a lower edge of the upper end of the rocker arm 6 and the top surface of the housing body 3 is 80-102 mm.

[0066] Specifically, if Figure 2 As shown, by limiting the distance between the lower edge of the upper end of the rocker arm 6 at the first extreme position and the top surface of the shell body 3, the upward rotation position of the rocker arm 6 relative to the shell body 3 can be limited, ensuring that the air guide plate 5 at the first extreme position guides the airflow to flow downward, improving the landing effect of the airflow, and thereby improving the heating efficiency while improving the comfort.

[0067] For example, at the first extreme position, the values ​​of L1' are 80mm, 85mm, 90mm, 100mm, and 102mm.

[0068] In some embodiments, the air guide plate 5 has a second extreme position of downward movement. At the second extreme position, a distance L1′′ between a lower edge of the upper end of the rocker arm 6 and the top surface of the housing body 3 is 82-117 mm.

[0069] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown, by limiting the distance between the lower edge of the upper end of the rocker arm 6 at the second extreme position and the top surface of the shell body 3, the upward rotation position of the rocker arm 6 relative to the shell body 3 can be limited, ensuring that the air guide plate 5 at the second extreme position guides the air flow upward, thereby improving the cooling efficiency and comfort.

[0070] For example, at the second extreme position, the values ​​of L1'' are 82mm, 85mm, 90mm, 100mm, and 117mm.

[0071] In some embodiments, the rear side 42 of the front panel is arranged parallel to the front side 41 of the front panel.

[0072] Specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, the rear side surface 42 of the front panel extends in a direction from top to bottom and is arranged tilted backward, and the inclination angle of the rear side surface 42 of the front panel is the same as the inclination angle of the front side surface 41 of the front panel, so that the front panel 4 extends in a direction from top to bottom and is arranged tilted backward, reducing the area of ​​the air duct occupied by the rear side surface 42 of the front panel and increasing the air duct area.

[0073] In some embodiments, the angle θ between the front side surface 41 of the front panel and the vertical plane is 6°-15°.

[0074] Specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the angle between the front side surface 41 of the front panel and the vertical plane is limited to avoid that the angle between the front side surface 41 of the front panel and the vertical plane is too large, which makes it difficult for the airflow to flow downward along the front side surface 41 of the front panel. At the same time, the angle between the front side surface 41 of the front panel and the vertical plane is prevented from being too small, which makes it difficult for the airflow to flow downward along the front side surface 41 of the front panel. This ensures that the front side surface 41 of the front panel can better guide the airflow flowing out of the air outlet 2 to flow downward.

[0075] The air conditioner 100 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a housing assembly 300 for the air conditioner 100 according to the above embodiment.

[0076] In the air conditioner 100 of the disclosed embodiment, the front side surface 41 of the front panel extends in a direction from top to bottom and is arranged tilted backward, and the air outlet 2 opens forward and is located above the front panel 4. By setting the angle between the front side surface 51 of the air guide plate and the front side surface 41 of the front panel to an obtuse angle, the airflow flowing out through the air outlet 2 flows along the extension direction of the air guide plate 5 and the extension direction of the front side surface 41 of the front panel, which facilitates the front side surface 41 of the front panel to guide the airflow to flow tilted downward along the front side surface 41 of the front panel, making it easier for the airflow to fall to the ground, avoiding direct blowing of the airflow, and improving user comfort and experience.
