These embodiments are intended to explain the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Based on the embodiments provided by the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should still fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0046] It should be noted that in the description of this utility model, terms such as "center," "upper," "lower," "top," "bottom," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer" indicating directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. This is merely for the convenience of description and does not indicate or imply that the corresponding device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be understood as limiting the present utility model. In addition, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0047] Furthermore, it should be noted that in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "install", "connect", and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or a communication between the two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to the specific circumstances. For example, the terms "install", "connect", "connect", and "fix", unless otherwise specified, can specifically refer to any feasible connection form such as bolt connection, screw connection, welding, plug-in connection, riveting, welding, and clamping.

[0048] In addition, it should be noted that in the description of the present invention, the terms "cold" and "heat" are two descriptions of the same physical state. That is, the higher the "cold" of a certain target object (such as an evaporator, air, condenser, etc.), the lower the "heat" it has, and the lower the "cold" it has, the higher the "heat" it has. When a certain target object absorbs "cold", it will release "heat", and when it releases "cold", it will absorb "heat". A certain target object stores "cold" or "heat" in order to maintain the current temperature of the target object. "Refrigeration" and "heat absorption" are two descriptions of the same physical phenomenon, that is, a certain target object (such as an evaporator) will absorb heat while cooling.

[0059] Continue reading Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments of the present invention, the air guide plate 120 is installed at the air outlet 102 and can cover part of the housing 220 of the auxiliary air supply device 200 when closed.

[0060] Continue reading Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments of the present invention, the air conditioner volute 140 is fixedly connected to the housing 110 and can be used to connect to a wall to mount the indoor unit body 100 on the wall. The air conditioner fan 130 is rotatably mounted on the air conditioner volute 140.

[0061] Although not shown in the figure, the heat exchanger is also mounted on the air conditioner volute 140. Since the heat exchanger in the wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit 001 is well known to those skilled in the art, it will not be described in detail here.

[0062] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the auxiliary air supply device 200 includes two connecting arms 210, a housing 220, a crossflow fan 230, and an optional wind direction motor 240. The housing 220 is disposed between the two connecting arms 210, so that the auxiliary air supply device 200 is U-shaped as a whole.

[0063] Continue reading Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments of the present invention, the connecting arm 210 is used to connect the indoor unit body 100. The connecting arm 210 is provided with a fixing matching structure 211, so that the connecting arm 210 and the indoor unit body 100 are fixed together through the fixing structure 112 and the fixing matching structure 211.

[0064] Continue reading Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments of the present invention, the fixed matching structure 211 includes at least one hooking structure 2111 and at least one latching protrusion 2112 , and the hooking structure 2111 and the latching protrusion 2112 are both arranged on the side of the connecting arm 210 facing the accommodating groove 111 .

[0065] When the auxiliary air supply device 200 and the indoor unit body 100 are assembled, the hooking structure 2111 is embedded in the strip hole 1121 and hooks the upper edge of the strip hole 1121, and the protrusion 2112 is engaged with the buckle 1122 to fix the connecting arm 210 to the indoor unit body 100.

[0066] from Figure 7 and Figure 8As can be seen in the figure, the hooking structure 2111 is a U-shaped structure provided on the connecting arm 210 to ensure that the hooking structure 2111 can hook the upper edge of the strip-shaped hole 1121. Alternatively, those skilled in the art can also replace the U-shaped structure with an L-shaped structure, a Z-shaped structure, or the like as needed.

[0067] from Figure 7 and Figure 8 It can also be seen in the figure that the top surface of the protrusion 2112 is provided with a guide surface 21121 to enable the buckle 1122 to pass over the protrusion 2112 and hook the bottom surface of the protrusion 2112.

[0068] Based on the above-described structures of the fixing structure 112 and the fixing engagement structure 211, those skilled in the art will appreciate that when installing the auxiliary air supply device 200, the auxiliary air supply device 200 can be first placed below the indoor unit body 100, with the two connecting arms 210 aligned with the two receiving slots 111 on the indoor unit body 100. The two connecting arms 210 are then inserted upward into the two receiving slots 111. During this process, when the hooking structure 2111 moves to align with the strip-shaped hole 1121, it engages with the strip-shaped hole 1121. This continues until the hooking structure 2111 reaches the upper edge of the strip-shaped hole 1121 and hooks onto it. At this point, the latching protrusion 2112 also passes over the latch 1122 and is hooked by it, completely securing the auxiliary air supply device 200 to the indoor unit body 100.

[0069] In some embodiments of the present invention, the distance between the two opposite inner side surfaces of the two connecting arms 210 is the same or approximately the same as the distance between the bottom walls of the two accommodating grooves 111 on the indoor unit body 100, and the two connecting arms 210 can produce slight deformation to ensure that the two connecting arms 210 can be inserted into the two accommodating grooves 111, and to ensure that the hook structure 2111 can automatically embed into the strip hole 1121.

[0070] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the aforementioned engagement between the protrusion 2112 and the buckle 1122 allows the auxiliary air supply device 200 to be secured to the indoor unit body 100 in the vertical direction. The aforementioned engagement between the hook structure 2111 and the strip-shaped hole 1121 allows the auxiliary air supply device 200 to be secured to the indoor unit body 100 in the left-right and front-back directions. The aforementioned engagement between the receiving groove 111 and the connecting arm 210 allows the auxiliary air supply device 200 to be secured to the indoor unit body 100 in the left-right and front-back directions.

[0071] In addition, those skilled in the art may also set the fixing structure 112 and the fixing matching structure 211 to any other feasible structures as needed, such as the threaded hole 2503 and the through hole 261, and connect them together by bolts or screws.

[0072] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in the assembled state, the connecting arm 210 is flush with the left wall or the right wall of the indoor unit body 100, so that the wall-mounted air-conditioning indoor unit 001 is more beautiful as a whole.

[0073] Of course, those skilled in the art may also make the connecting arm 210 slightly protrude from the left or right wall of the indoor unit body 100 as needed, but doing so may affect the aesthetics of the wall-mounted air-conditioning indoor unit 001.

[0074] Continue reading Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments of the present invention, protrusions 212 are provided on opposite sides of the two connecting arms 210 to connect to the housing 220 via the protrusions 212. The two protrusions 212 can also respectively abut against the bottom surface of the indoor unit body 100, thereby cooperating with the fixing structure 112 and the fixing matching structure 211, as well as the connecting arm 210 embedded in the receiving groove 111, thereby increasing the connection strength between the auxiliary air supply device 200 and the indoor unit body 100 and preventing the auxiliary air supply device 200 from shaking relative to the indoor unit body 100.

[0075] Alternatively, in other embodiments of the present invention, those skilled in the art may also omit the protruding portion 212 of the connecting arm 210 as needed.

[0088] In addition, in other embodiments of the present invention, those skilled in the art may also use any other feasible method to fix the stop member 260 and the auxiliary volute 250 together as needed, such as snap connection, bonding, hoop connection, etc.

[0089] Continue reading Figure 9 and Figure 10 In some embodiments of the present invention, a drive shaft hole 2506 is further provided on the outside of the other of the two connecting shaft holes 2501 on the auxiliary volute 250, so that the auxiliary volute 250 can be plugged into the drive shaft of the wind direction motor 240 through the drive shaft hole 2506.

[0090] like Figures 9 to 11 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the housing 220 includes a first shell 221 and a second shell 222 , the first shell 221 is fixedly connected to the auxiliary volute 250 , and the first shell 221 is snap-fitted to the second shell 222 .

[0091] The first housing 221 is provided with a snap-fit ​​structure 2211 for connecting to the second housing 222, and the second housing 222 is provided with a snap-fit ​​structure 2221, so that the first housing 221 and the second housing 222 are snap-fitted together via the snap-fit ​​structure 2211 and the snap-fit ​​structure 2221. The first housing 221 is also provided with a connecting shaft hole 2212, and the auxiliary volute 250 is provided with a fixing hole 2504, so that a bolt or screw can pass through the fixing hole 2504 and be tightened together with the connecting shaft hole 2212, thereby fixing the first housing 221 to the auxiliary volute 250. The second housing 222 is also provided with a stop structure 2222, which abuts against the auxiliary volute 250 to prevent the auxiliary volute 250 from rotating.

[0092] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the above-mentioned fixing structure 112 of the first shell 221, the second shell 222 and the auxiliary volute 250 not only facilitates the connection and fixation between the three, but also enables the second shell 222 to be completely fixed to the auxiliary volute 250 by means of the snap connection between the second shell 221 and the stop relationship between the second shell 222 and the auxiliary volute 250, and the structure is simple and ingenious.

[0093] In addition, in other embodiments of the present invention, those skilled in the art may also use any other feasible method to fix the first housing 220 and the second housing 220 together, such as screw connection, as needed. Those skilled in the art may also use any other feasible method to fix the first housing 220 and the auxiliary volute 250 together, such as clamping, as needed.

[0094] Refer to the following Figures 7 to 10 The assembly process of the auxiliary air supply device 200 of the present invention is briefly described.

[0095] First, the air supply motor 232 and the wind direction motor 240 are respectively installed on the corresponding connecting arms 210.

[0096] Then, the first housing 221 is fixed to the auxiliary volute 250 by screws or bolts.

[0097] Subsequently, the impeller 231 is mounted on the auxiliary volute 250 , and then the stopping member 260 is mounted on the auxiliary volute 250 to prevent the impeller 231 from falling off.

[0098] Subsequently, the second housing 222 is mounted on the first housing 221 .

[0099] Finally, the auxiliary volute 250 is plugged into the wind direction motor 240 , and the impeller 231 is plugged into the air supply motor 232 , thereby rotating and connecting the auxiliary volute 250 and the two connecting arms 210 .

[0100] from Figure 7 and Figure 8 As can be seen in the figure, the two protruding portions 212 of the two connecting arms 210 are respectively provided with connecting holes 2122 to avoid the connecting shaft 251 of the auxiliary volute 250. That is, the connecting shaft 251 can be inserted into the connecting hole 2122.

[0101] Thereafter, the two connecting arms 210 can be fixed to the indoor unit body 100 .

[0102] like Figure 12 As shown, the indoor unit body 100 also includes an air outlet channel 103 located between the air-conditioning fan 130 and the air outlet 102, and an air inlet channel (not shown in the figure) located between the air-conditioning fan 130 and the return air outlet 101, so that the air flows through the return air outlet 101, the air inlet channel, the air-conditioning fan 130, the air outlet channel 103 and the air outlet 102 in sequence.

[0103] Continue reading Figure 12 In the assembled state, the minimum distance between the outer shell 220 of the auxiliary air supply device 200 and the peripheral wall of the air outlet channel 103 is d, d≤20mm, especially d≤5mm, to ensure that the air blown out from the auxiliary air outlet 2202 can impact the air blown out from the air outlet 102.

[0104] For example, d can be 3mm, 3.5mm, 5mm, 7mm, 8mm, 12mm, 15mm, 18mm, 20mm, etc.

[0105] Refer to the following Figure 12 The working principle of the wall-mounted air-conditioning indoor unit 001 in some embodiments of the present invention is briefly described.

[0106] During operation, the air conditioning fan 130 rotates, causing the indoor unit body 100 to blow air out of the air outlet 102. The air supply motor 232 drives the impeller 231 to rotate, causing the impeller 231 to drive air out of the auxiliary air outlet 2202. The air mixes with the air from the air outlet 102, thereby increasing the air volume and speed. To adjust the direction of the auxiliary air outlet 2202, the wind direction control motor 240 rotates until it reaches the desired position.

[0107] Based on the foregoing description, those skilled in the art will understand that the wall-mounted air-conditioning indoor unit 001 of the present invention, with the assistance of the auxiliary air supply device 200, can not only make the cold air blown out of the indoor unit body 100 fall to the ground (the auxiliary air supply device 200 blows air downward), but also can make the wind fly far away and have the effect of uniform temperature.

[0108] In the present invention, the wind direction motor 240 can be a stepping motor to accurately control the rotation angle of the housing 220 and its internal components. The air supply motor 232 can be a fixed frequency motor or a variable frequency motor.

[0109] In addition, in other embodiments of the present invention, those skilled in the art may also omit the wind direction motor 240 as needed, and rotatably connect the auxiliary volute 250 to the connecting arm 210 by a connecting shaft 251 away from the air supply motor 232. Then, the user can manually rotate the angle of the housing 220 as needed.

[0110] Furthermore, in other embodiments of the present invention, those skilled in the art may, as needed, omit the wind direction motor 240 and fix the auxiliary volute 250 to the two connecting arms 210 to fix the auxiliary air outlet 2202. In other words, the auxiliary air supply device 200 always blows air in one direction.

[0111] Thus far, the technical solutions of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the above-mentioned multiple embodiments. However, it is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the technical principles of the present invention, those skilled in the art may split and combine the technical solutions of the above-mentioned various embodiments, and may also make equivalent changes or replacements to the relevant technical features. Any changes, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the technical concept and / or technical principles of the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
