[0049] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be combined with each other.

[0050] Combine Figure 1-6 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides an air conditioner, including a housing 100, a fan assembly 200 and an air outlet frame assembly 300. The housing 100 includes a front panel 110, which is provided with a communication port 113; the front panel 110 includes a first panel 111 and a second panel 112, and the first panel 111 faces the interior of the housing 100, and the second panel 112 faces the exterior of the housing 100; Figure 4 As shown, the fan assembly 200 is disposed in the housing 100 and mounted on the first plate 111; the fan assembly 200 is provided with a fan outlet 201, and the fan outlet 201 is connected to the inner side of the communication port 113; Figure 5 As shown, the air outlet frame assembly 300 is disposed outside the housing 100 and mounted on the second plate surface 112; the air outlet frame assembly 300 is provided with an air duct inlet 310, and the air duct inlet 310 is connected to the outer side of the communication port 113; and, as shown Figure 2 As shown by the arrows, by removing the front panel 110 , the fan assembly 200 and the air outlet frame assembly 300 can be taken out from the front side of the housing 100 .

[0051] In this embodiment, the fan assembly 200 is mounted on the first panel 111 of the front panel 110, and the air outlet frame assembly 300 is mounted on the second panel 112 of the front panel 110, thereby achieving an integrated installation of the fan assembly 200 and the air outlet frame assembly 300. Air from the fan assembly 200 is blown into the air outlet frame assembly 300 through the fan outlet 201, the connecting port 113, and the air duct inlet 310, and finally enters the room through the air outlet frame assembly 300. After the front panel 110 is removed, the fan assembly 200 and the air outlet frame assembly 300 can be removed from the front side of the housing 100 at the same time. In this way, the integrated installation design simplifies the disassembly and assembly process, and disassembly from the front side is more suitable for a variety of installation environments, which improves the maintenance convenience of the fan assembly and the air outlet frame assembly.

[0052] Optionally, the housing 100 is provided with an air inlet, and external air enters the housing 100 through the air inlet.

[0053] Optionally, a heat exchanger is provided in the housing 100, and the heat exchanger is located between the air inlet and the fan assembly 200. In this way, the air at the air inlet flows to the heat exchanger and then exchanges heat with the heat exchanger.

[0054] Optionally, the fan assembly 200 is provided with a fan inlet, and the heat-exchanged air enters the fan assembly 200 through the fan inlet.

[0055] Optionally, the air outlet frame assembly 300 is provided with an air duct outlet. The air from the fan assembly 200 is blown into the air outlet frame assembly 300 from the fan outlet 201, the connecting port 113 and the air duct inlet 310 in sequence, and finally blown into the room from the air duct outlet, thereby adjusting various parameters of the indoor air.

[0056] Alternatively, as Figure 6 As shown, the fan assembly 200 includes a volute portion, which is provided with a fan outlet 201. Furthermore, the volute portion is bounded by an upper volute 210 and a lower volute 220. Thus, the volute portion, composed of the upper volute 210 and the lower volute 220, facilitates dispersing the stress and pressure generated during fan operation, thereby improving the strength and durability of the volute portion.

[0057] Optionally, the upper volute 210 is provided with an upper support plate 211, which is arranged around the fan outlet 201 and abuts against the first plate surface 111. In this way, the upper support plate 211 increases the contact area between the upper volute 210 and the first plate surface 111, which helps to reduce the vibration generated by the fan assembly 200 during high-speed operation and improve the stability of the overall structure.

[0058] For example, upper support plates 211 are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the fan outlet 201, and both upper support plates 211 are in contact with the first plate surface 111. Moreover, the widths of the upper support plates 211 on the left and the upper support plates 211 on the right are the same or different.

[0059] In another exemplary embodiment, upper support plates 211 are respectively provided on the upper side, left side, and right side of the fan outlet 201, and all three upper support plates 211 are in contact with the first plate surface 111. Here, the widths of the three upper support plates 211 are the same or different. For example, the widths of the upper support plate 211 on the left and the upper support plate 211 on the right are the same, and are greater than the width of the upper support plate 211 on the upper side.

[0060] Alternatively, as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a hook 214 is provided on one side of the upper support plate 211 toward the front panel 110, and a bayonet 114 corresponding to the hook 214 is provided on the front panel 110. During installation, the hook 214 is inserted into the bayonet 114 to connect the volute portion to the front panel 110.

[0061] For example, upper support plates 211 are provided on the upper, left, and right sides of the fan outlet 201, and each of the left and right upper support plates 211 is provided with a hook 214. Two corresponding latches 114 are provided on the front panel 110. Thus, during installation, the two hooks 214 are respectively engaged with the corresponding latches 114. Here, the two hooks 214 can be provided at the same or different heights.

[0062] Alternatively, as Figure 4 As shown, the upper volute 210 is provided with a fork 212; the first panel 111 is recessed toward the interior of the housing 100 to form a concave panel section 115, which corresponds to the fork 212 and can be inserted into the fork 212. During installation, the concave panel section 115 is inserted into the fork 212 to connect the volute portion to the front panel 110.

[0063] For example, a fork 212 is provided at each end of the upper side of the upper volute 210, and the first plate surface 111 is provided with two corresponding concave plate sections 115. Thus, the two concave plate sections 115 are respectively inserted into the corresponding fork 212 during installation.

[0064] In another exemplary embodiment, an upper support plate 211 is provided on the upper side of the fan outlet 201, and the upper support plate 211 is provided with a disconnection opening, and the fork opening 212 is provided at the disconnection opening. In this way, the utilization rate of the installation space is improved through reasonable layout.

[0065] Optionally, corresponding screw holes are provided on the upper support plate 211 and the front panel 110 , and screw fasteners are passed through the screw holes to fix the upper support plate 211 to the front panel 110 .

[0066] In this embodiment, during installation, first, the hook 214 is engaged with the retaining notch 114, and then the concave plate section 115 is inserted into the fork opening 212. This completes the positioning and preliminary fixation between the fan assembly 200 and the front panel 110. Finally, the upper support plate 211 is secured to the front panel 110 using screws. This completes the final fixation of the fan assembly 200.

[0067] Alternatively, as Figure 4 As shown, the air outlet frame assembly 300 includes an upper enclosure plate 301 , and the upper enclosure plate 301 is provided with an upper folding edge 303 ; the upper folding edge 303 is in contact with the second plate surface 112 and blocks the depression at the inner concave plate section 115 .

[0068] In this embodiment, the design of the upper folding edge 303 increases the edge thickness and strength of the upper enclosure panel 301, making it more resistant to external pressure and deformation. By placing the upper folding edge 303 against the first panel surface 111, the connection between the air outlet frame assembly 300 and the front panel 110 is further stabilized. Furthermore, the upper folding edge 303 conceals the depression in the inner concave panel section 115, enhancing the aesthetics of the air conditioner.

[0069] Optionally, corresponding screw holes are provided on the upper folding edge 303 and the front panel 110 , and screw fasteners are passed through the screw holes to fix the upper folding edge 303 to the front panel 110 , thereby fixing the air outlet frame assembly 300 to the front panel 110 .

[0070] Optionally, the upper enclosure plate 301 is arranged perpendicular to the front panel 110, and the upper folding edge 303 is arranged perpendicular to the upper enclosure plate 301. In this way, it is beneficial for the upper folding edge 303 to be closely attached to the front panel 110.

[0071] Optionally, the air outlet frame assembly 300 is composed of an upper enclosure panel 301, a lower enclosure panel 302 and two side enclosure panels.

[0072] For example, the air outlet frame assembly 300 is constructed in a rectangular shape, and the upper panel 301, the lower panel 302 and the two side panels are arranged along the rectangle, wherein the upper panel 301 corresponds to the lower panel 302, and the two side panels correspond to each other.

[0073] Optionally, the lower enclosure plate 302 is provided with a lower folding edge, and the lower folding edge is in contact with the first plate surface 111. In this way, by contacting the lower folding edge with the first plate surface 111, the connection between the air outlet frame assembly 300 and the front panel 110 is more stable.

[0074] Optionally, corresponding screw holes are provided on the lower folding edge and the front panel 110 , and screw fasteners are passed through the screw holes to fix the lower folding edge to the front panel 110 .

[0075] Optionally, the side panels are provided with side folds, and the side folds are in contact with the first plate surface 111. In this way, by placing the side folds in contact with the first plate surface 111, the connection between the air outlet frame assembly 300 and the front panel 110 is more stable.

[0076] Optionally, corresponding screw holes are provided on the side folds and the front panel 110 , and screw fasteners are passed through the screw holes to fix the side folds to the front panel 110 .

[0077] Optionally, an air deflector assembly is provided at the air duct outlet of the air outlet frame assembly 300. The air deflector assembly is rotatable. Users can adjust the angle of the air deflector assembly according to their needs, thereby effectively controlling the flow path and speed of the airflow, thereby achieving a more comfortable wind feeling and temperature distribution.

[0078] For example, the air deflector assembly includes two air deflectors, arranged along the width of the air duct outlet. Furthermore, each air deflector is connected to a corresponding side panel via a rotating shaft at both ends. This allows the air deflectors to rotate to adjust the airflow direction, meeting the user's needs.

[0079] Optionally, the upper volute 210 is provided with a forward extension section 213 , and the forward extension section 213 corresponds to the inner wall of the communication opening 113 , and the forward extension section 213 passes through the communication opening 113 and extends into the air duct inlet 310 .

[0080] In this embodiment, the design of the forward extension 213 more effectively guides airflow from the fan outlet 201 to the air duct inlet 310, reducing airflow turbulence and eddy currents in the transition region. Furthermore, when the forward extension 213 passes through the communication opening 113, it comes into close contact with or abuts the inner wall of the communication opening 113, thereby reducing the risk of loosening or damage to the fan assembly 200 due to vibration.

[0081] Exemplarily, a forward extension section 213 is provided on the left and right sides of the upper volute 210, and the two forward extension sections 213 are perpendicular to the upper support plate 211. Moreover, when passing through the communication port 113, the two forward extension sections 213 are close to the left and right inner walls of the communication port 113 respectively.

[0082] In another exemplary embodiment, a forward extension section 213 is provided on the left side, right side, and upper side of the upper volute 210, respectively. The three forward extension sections 213 are perpendicular to the upper support plate 211. Moreover, when passing through the communication opening 113, the left and right forward extension sections 213 are close to the left and right inner walls of the communication opening 113, respectively, and the upper forward extension section 213 is close to the upper inner wall of the communication opening 113.

[0083] Optionally, the lower volute 220 is provided with a vortex tongue 221, and the vortex tongue 221 passes through the communication port 113 and extends into the air duct inlet 310. In this way, the position design of the vortex tongue 221 is conducive to the smooth flow of air into the air duct inlet 310, which is conducive to improving the transmission efficiency of the airflow.

[0084] Alternatively, as Figure 4 As shown, the vortex tongue 221 extends downward and abuts against the lower panel 302. This close contact between the vortex tongue 221 and the lower panel 302 provides support for the volute and enhances the stability of the overall structure. Furthermore, this prevents air from leaking through the gap between the vortex tongue 221 and the lower panel 302, improving airflow transmission efficiency.

[0085] Optionally, a lower support plate 222 is provided at the portion of the volute 221 extending into the air duct inlet 310, and the lower support plate 222 is close to or in contact with the second plate surface 112. Thus, when in contact, the lower support plate 222 increases the contact area between the lower volute 220 and the second plate surface 112, thereby reducing vibrations generated by the fan assembly 200 during high-speed operation and improving the stability of the overall structure.

[0086] Optionally, the lower support plate 222 extends downward and is close to or abuts against the lower enclosure plate 302. Like this, when abutting, the lower support plate 222 provides certain support for the volute portion, thereby enhancing the stability of the overall structure.

[0087] Alternatively, as Figure 1 As shown, the air conditioner further includes an electric control box assembly 400 . The electric control box is disposed in the housing 100 and is located on one side of the front panel 110 . Furthermore, the front panel 110 is provided with a connecting flange 116 , and the connecting flange 116 is connected to the electric control box assembly 400 .

[0088] In this embodiment, the electrical control box assembly 400 is located on one side of the front panel 110, allowing maintenance personnel to easily remove the electrical control box assembly 400 from the front. To remove the front panel 110, the connection between the connecting flange 116 and the electrical control box assembly 400 must be released before removing the electrical control box assembly 400. This removes the electrical control box assembly 400 from the front panel 110, allowing further removal of the front panel 110 and the subsequent removal of the fan assembly 200 and the air outlet frame assembly 300.

[0089] Optionally, a plurality of connecting ports 113 are provided on the front panel 110 , and the fan assembly 200 is composed of a plurality of fan units; wherein, each connecting port 113 corresponds to a fan unit, and the air duct inlet 310 of the air outlet frame assembly 300 is connected to all the connecting ports 113 .

[0090] For example, the front panel 110 is provided with two communication ports 113, and the fan assembly 200 is composed of two fan units. Each of the two communication ports 113 houses a fan unit, each of which includes a volute portion, with the fan outlet 201 of the volute portion correspondingly connected to the corresponding communication port 113. Furthermore, the two communication ports 113 are arranged along the length of the front panel 110, and the air duct inlet 310 of the air outlet frame assembly 300 is connected to the two communication ports 113.

[0091] In another exemplary embodiment, the front panel 110 is provided with three communication ports 113, and the fan assembly 200 is composed of three fan units. Each of the three communication ports 113 is provided with a fan unit, and the fan unit includes a volute portion, and the fan outlet 201 of the volute portion is connected to the corresponding communication port 113. Furthermore, the three communication ports 113 are evenly arranged along the length of the front panel 110, and the air duct inlet 310 of the air outlet frame assembly 300 is connected to the three communication ports 113.

[0092] Optionally, the fan assembly 200 is composed of multiple fan units, and each fan unit is driven by a drive motor 230 .

[0093] For example, the front panel 110 is provided with two communication ports 113 , each of which is provided with a fan unit. In addition, each fan unit is provided with a drive motor 230 , and both drive motors 230 are mounted on the first panel 111 of the front panel 110 .

[0094] In another exemplary embodiment, the front panel 110 is provided with three communication ports 113 , each of which is provided with a fan unit. Furthermore, each fan unit is provided with a drive motor 230 , and the three drive motors 230 are all mounted on the first panel 111 of the front panel 110 .

[0095] Alternatively, as Figure 3 As shown, the fan assembly 200 is composed of multiple fan units, and the multiple fan units are driven by a driving motor 230.

[0096] For example, the front panel 110 has two communication ports 113, each of which is equipped with a fan unit. Furthermore, the two fan units utilize a single drive motor 230, with drive shafts 231 provided on the left and right sides of the drive motor 230, respectively. Each drive shaft 231 is connected to a fan unit. Thus, a single drive motor 230 can drive both fan units.

[0097] As another example, the front panel 110 has three communication ports 113, each of which is equipped with a fan unit. Furthermore, the three fan units utilize a single drive motor 230. Drive shafts 231 are provided on the left and right sides of the drive motor 230, and one drive shaft 231 is connected to an extension shaft 232. The two drive shafts 231 and the extension shaft 232 are each connected to a fan unit. In this manner, a single drive motor 230 can drive the three fan units.
