[0039] The embodiments of the present invention 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 invention, but should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0040] Please refer to the following Figures 1 to 13 The present invention describes a housing assembly, an air conditioner indoor unit and an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0041] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the housing assembly of the embodiment of the present invention includes: a base 1, a frame 2, and an air guide frame 3. The frame 2 is detachably mounted on the base 1 and forms a mounting cavity with the base 1. The frame 2 has an air inlet 21 and an air outlet 22. The air outlet 22 is provided on the front wall of the frame 2, and the air inlet 21 is provided on the bottom wall of the frame 2. The air guide frame 3 is provided in the mounting cavity and is detachably connected to the base 1 and the frame 2. An air guide channel 31 is provided in the air guide frame 3, and the air outlet end of the air guide channel 31 is arranged opposite to the air outlet 22.

[0042] According to the housing assembly of the embodiment of the present invention, since the air guide frame 3 is detachably connected to the base 1 and the frame 2, the air guide frame 3, the base 1, and the frame 2 can be manufactured separately and then assembled together. This reduces the difficulty of demolding during the manufacture of the housing assembly and facilitates processing and manufacturing. On the other hand, since the air outlet 22 is located on the front wall of the frame 2 and the air inlet 21 is located on the bottom wall of the frame 2, the distance between the air conditioner indoor unit and the ceiling of the room can be greatly reduced or eliminated, thereby enabling the air conditioner indoor unit to be installed close to the ceiling, thereby improving the utilization of indoor space.

[0043] It can be understood that the air guide frame 3, base 1 and frame 2 are all injection molded parts. When the air guide frame 3 and frame 2 are an integral structural part or the air guide frame 3 and base 1 are an integral structural part, due to their complex structural design, it is difficult to demold the frame 2 and base 1. The air guide frame 3, base 1 and frame 2 of the embodiment of the present invention can be manufactured separately, which can reduce the difficulty of processing and manufacturing the shell assembly.

[0044] In the example of the present application, the front wall of the frame 2 is opened to form an air outlet 22, so when the indoor unit of the air conditioner is installed against the ceiling, the air outlet of the indoor unit of the air conditioner will not be blocked.

[0045] It is understandable that since the air in the environment does not need to enter the interior of the air conditioner from directly above the frame 2, the distance between the air conditioner and the top wall (ceiling) of the room can be greatly reduced or eliminated, thereby improving the indoor space utilization rate. In particular, for rooms with low heights, the feeling of cramped indoor space can be effectively reduced or eliminated. Therefore, the air conditioner of the embodiment of the utility model has very low installation space requirements. The installation space only needs to be able to accommodate the air conditioner, and there is no need to leave air inlet or outlet space above the air conditioner, thereby expanding the scope of application of the air conditioner.

[0046] Alternatively, as Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 7As shown, one of the frame 2 and the air guide frame 3 is provided with a first snap 23, and the other of the frame 2 and the air guide frame 3 is provided with a first slot 32. The first snap 23 is engaged with the first slot 32, and the first snap 23 can be disengaged from the first slot 32 along the front-to-back direction of the frame 2. It can be understood that the frame 2 and the air guide frame 3 are fixedly connected by snaps, so that the frame 2 and the air guide frame 3 can be easily separated.

[0047] Since the first clip 23 can be disengaged from the first slot 32 along the front-to-back direction of the frame 2, the operator can apply a pulling force to the frame 2 in the horizontal direction when disassembling the frame 2 to separate the frame 2 from the air guide frame 3. Even if the air conditioner indoor unit is in a ceiling-mounted installation state, it will not interfere with the disassembly and assembly of the frame 2, and the use effect is better.

[0048] For example, the first buckle 23 is provided on the frame 2, and the first slot 32 is provided on the air guide frame 3. For another example, the first buckle 23 is provided on the air guide frame 3, and the first slot 32 is provided on the frame 2.

[0049] Specifically, if Figure 4 As shown, the first clip 23 includes a connecting section 231 and a snap-on block 232. One end of the connecting section 231 is connected to the frame 2, and the other end of the connecting section 231 extends toward the rear side of the frame 2 and is connected to the snap-on block 232. The first snap-on slot 32 is provided on the air guide 3, and the snap-on block 232 is elastically snap-on with the first snap-on slot 32. The snap-on block 232 is connected to the frame 2 via the connecting section 231, and a certain distance can be spaced between the snap-on block 232 and the frame 2 to avoid interference between the air guide 3 and the frame 2 when the snap-on block 232 engages with the first snap-on slot 32.

[0050] For example, the connecting section 231 may be a rib structure to ensure the structural strength of the first buckle 23. The connecting block 232 may be spherical or cylindrical. Accordingly, the first slot 32 may be shaped like a spherical socket or a cylindrical slot.

[0051] Alternatively, as Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, there are multiple first clips 23, and the multiple first clips 23 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the frame 2. There are multiple first card slots 32, and the multiple first card slots 32 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the air guide frame 3. The multiple first clips 23 are snapped into the multiple first card slots 32 in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0052] In the example of the present application, the first clip 23 is arranged on the inner top wall of the frame 2, and the first slot 32 is arranged on the outer top wall of the air guide frame 3. It can be understood that the top wall of the air guide frame 3 is fixed to the inner top wall of the frame 2 through the matching structure of the first clip 23 and the first slot 32, and the lower end of the air guide frame 3 can be connected to other components of the air conditioner indoor unit, thereby ensuring the stability of the connection of the air guide frame 3.

[0053] Alternatively, as Figure 2 As shown, the air outlet end of the air guide 3 has a convex stop 33, and the outer periphery of the air outlet 22 of the frame 2 has a concave stop 24, and the convex stop 33 cooperates with the concave stop 24. This can improve the sealing effect of the connection between the air guide 3 and the frame 2 and prevent air leakage at the connection point between the air guide 3 and the frame 2.

[0054] In some embodiments, as Figures 6 to 9 As shown, one of the base 1 and the air guide frame 3 is provided with a first latch 34, and the other of the base 1 and the air guide frame 3 is provided with a first slot 11. The first latch 34 is inserted into the first slot 11, and the first latch 34 can be disengaged from the first slot 11 along the front-to-back direction of the base 1. It is understood that after the base 1 and the air guide frame 3 are unlocked, the air guide frame 3 can be separated from the base 1 along the front-to-back direction of the base 1, thereby facilitating the assembly and disassembly of the air guide frame 3 and also securing the air guide frame 3, thereby improving the convenience of assembly and disassembly of the air guide frame 3.

[0055] For example, the first buckle 34 is provided on the air guide frame 3, and the first slot 11 is provided on the base 1. For another example, the first buckle 34 is provided on the base 1, and the first slot 11 is provided on the air guide frame 3.

[0056] Specifically, if Figures 6 to 9 As shown, there are multiple first buckles 34, and the multiple first buckles 34 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the air guide frame 3. There are multiple first slots 11, and the multiple first slots 11 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the base 1. The multiple first buckles 34 are plugged into the multiple first slots 11 in a one-to-one correspondence, thereby further improving the stability of the connection between the base 1 and the air guide frame 3.

[0057] like Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the first buckle 34 is arranged on the outer top wall of the air guide frame 3 and extends backward, and the first slot 11 is arranged on the inner top wall of the base 1, thereby reducing the space occupied by the fixing structure of the air guide frame 3 and the base 1 in the air conditioner interior unit.

[0058] Furthermore, if Figure 9 and Figure 12As shown, the housing assembly further includes a first threaded member (not shown), which is connected to the first threaded holes 371 on the base 1 and the air guide frame 3, thereby improving the firmness of the connection between the base 1 and the air guide frame 3.

[0059] like Figure 13 As shown, another embodiment of an air conditioner indoor unit of the present invention includes a housing assembly, an evaporator 4, and a crossflow fan. The housing assembly is a housing assembly of the present invention, with the evaporator 4 disposed within a mounting cavity. The crossflow fan is also disposed within the mounting cavity. The crossflow fan includes a drive motor and a fan wheel 5. The drive motor is connected to the fan wheel 5, and the air inlet end of the air guide channel 31 is arranged opposite the fan wheel 5.

[0060] According to the embodiment of the air conditioner indoor unit of the present invention, since the air guide frame 3 is detachably connected to the base 1 and the frame 2, the air guide frame 3, the base 1, and the frame 2 can be manufactured separately and then assembled together. This reduces the difficulty of demolding during the manufacture of the housing assembly and facilitates processing and manufacturing. Furthermore, since the air outlet 22 is located on the front wall of the frame 2 and the air inlet 21 is located on the bottom wall of the frame 2, the distance between the indoor unit and the ceiling of the room can be greatly reduced or eliminated, thereby enabling the indoor unit to be installed close to the ceiling, thereby improving the utilization of indoor space.

[0061] Optionally, the indoor unit of the air conditioner also includes a motor cover 6 and an evaporator bracket 7, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the evaporator 4, the driving motor is arranged in the motor cover 6, and the air guide frame 3 is connected to at least one of the motor cover 6 and the evaporator bracket 7, thereby improving the stability of the connection of the air guide frame 3.

[0062] For example, Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the motor cover 6 is provided with a second latch 61, and the air guide frame 3 is provided with a second slot 35. The second latch 61 is inserted and fixedly engaged with the second slot 35. The housing assembly also includes a second threaded member that connects to the second threaded holes in the motor cover 6 and the air guide frame 3. This improves the secure installation of the air guide frame 3 and reduces the number of threaded members used, facilitating assembly.

[0063] For example, Figure 9 and Figure 12 As shown, the evaporator bracket 7 is provided with a third latch 71, and the air guide frame 3 is provided with a third slot 36. The third latch 71 is inserted and fixedly engaged with the third slot 36. The housing assembly also includes a third threaded member, which connects to the third threaded hole 372 on the evaporator bracket 7 and the air guide frame 3. This improves the secure installation of the air guide frame 3 and reduces the number of threaded members used, facilitating assembly.

[0064] Another embodiment of the present invention includes an air conditioner comprising an outdoor unit and an indoor unit, wherein the indoor unit is the indoor unit of the present invention and is connected to the outdoor unit.
