[0055] The first aspect of the present application discloses an air duct assembly, which forms an air passage 102 by enclosing an air duct inner shell 2 and an air duct outer shell 1, which can guide the airflow more effectively, reduce the generation of vortices, and thus improve ventilation efficiency. This design allows air to pass through the air duct more smoothly, achieving a faster ventilation effect. By optimizing the design of the air passage 102, the energy loss of the air flow during transmission is reduced, thereby improving the overall energy efficiency ratio. Through the first air inlet 302 and the second air inlet 303 set on the air inlet shell 3, the air duct assembly can introduce multiple airflows at the same time. This design not only improves the flexibility of air processing, but also helps to achieve air mixing, distribution or diversion.

This design effectively disperses the stress points, reduces the risk of deformation or damage caused by excessive stress on a single point, and effectively simplifies the assembly process between the air shroud 5 and the air inlet housing 3.

[0068] like Figure 16 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiment, this embodiment further defines that: the air duct inner shell 2 includes a first inner shell 21 and a second inner shell 22, the first inner shell 21 and the second inner shell 22 are both provided on the air duct outer shell 1 and located inside the air duct outer shell 1, the second inner shell 22 is located between the first inner shell 21 and the air inlet shell 3, the first inner shell 21 is provided with a first air hole 202, the second inner shell 22 is provided with a second air hole 203, the first inner shell 21, the second inner shell 22 and the air duct outer shell 1 together form the air passage 102, the second inner shell 22 is provided with a mounting cavity 201 or the second inner shell 22 and the first inner shell 21 together form the mounting cavity 201. Since the first inner shell 21 and the second inner shell 22 are provided with the first air hole 202 and the second air hole 203 respectively, the air flow can flow along a preset path inside the air duct inner shell 2, thereby improving the ventilation efficiency. The installation cavity 201 formed by the first inner shell 21 and the second inner shell 22 provides a compact installation space for internal components such as the fan assembly 4. This design simplifies the assembly process, improves production efficiency, and helps protect internal components from external damage.

[0069] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiment, this embodiment is further defined as follows: it also includes an electric heating component 6, the electric heating component 6 is arranged on the air duct outer shell 1 and / or the air duct inner shell 2, the electric heating component 6 is located in the air duct 102, and the electric heating component 6 is arranged around the air duct inner shell 2. By arranging the electric heating component 6 around the air duct inner shell 2, the electric heating component 6 can be evenly distributed in the air duct 102. This design ensures that the airflow can fully contact the electric heating component 6 when passing through the air duct 102, thereby achieving efficient heating. It can also avoid the problem of local overheating or uneven temperature of the airflow, thereby improving the heating effect.

[0070] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in addition to the features of the above-mentioned embodiment, this embodiment further defines: the air duct housing 1 includes a protective housing 11 and an air outlet housing 12. The air outlet housing 12 is disposed on and within the protective housing 11. The air outlet housing 12 is provided with the air outlet 101. The air outlet housing 12 and the air duct inner housing 2 enclose the air passage 102. The placement of the air outlet housing 12 within the protective housing 11 makes the structure more compact and reduces the overall size of the air duct assembly. The provision of the air outlet 101 ensures smooth airflow.
