Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air conditioners, in particular to a vertical air conditioner and an air conditioner component. Background Art
[0002] The vertical air conditioner includes an indoor unit, which includes a casing and components such as an indoor heat exchanger and a heat exchange fan arranged in the casing. The casing is provided with an air conditioning outlet and an air conditioning inlet. Driven by the heat exchange fan, indoor air enters the casing through the air conditioning inlet. The indoor air entering the casing exchanges heat with the indoor heat exchanger and then flows out through the air conditioning outlet.
[0003] In order to open and close the air-conditioning outlet, the indoor unit usually also includes a movable door structure, which includes a door body and a motion mechanism. Driven by the motion mechanism, the door body moves relative to the air-conditioning outlet to open or close the air-conditioning outlet.
[0004] To prevent the door from colliding with the housing during movement, a certain amount of clearance is usually provided between the door and the housing. However, during transportation, a vertical air conditioner may be placed horizontally. When the housing is squeezed, the area where the housing corresponds to the door is not supported by the door, which can easily cause dents or even cracks. This can cause the housing to interfere with the door during movement, affecting the door's movement and potentially affecting the appearance of the vertical air conditioner. Utility Model Content
[0005] An embodiment of the present utility model discloses a vertical air conditioner and an air conditioner assembly. By arranging a first elastic support member between the inner wall surface of the casing and the door body, the first elastic support member can provide support for the casing. During the transportation of the vertical air conditioner, the occurrence of depression or even cracking of the casing at the position corresponding to the door body can be reduced, thereby ensuring that the door body can move normally relative to the air outlet of the air conditioner, and ensuring the beautiful appearance of the vertical air conditioner.
[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned objectives, in a first aspect, the utility model discloses a vertical air conditioner, comprising:
[0007] Indoor unit;
[0008] Wherein, the indoor unit includes:
[0009] a casing, wherein an internal space is formed in the casing, and an air-conditioning outlet is provided on the casing and communicates with the internal space;
[0010] a heat exchange volute, disposed in the internal space;
[0011] an indoor heat exchanger for exchanging heat with indoor air entering the casing;
[0012] a heat exchange fan, disposed in the heat exchange volute and located on the leeward side of the indoor heat exchanger;
[0013] A movable door, the movable door being movably arranged at the air outlet of the air conditioner;
[0014] The movable door comprises:
[0015] Door body;
[0016] a motion mechanism disposed in the interior space and connected to the door body, the motion mechanism being configured to drive the door body to move so as to open or close the air outlet of the air conditioner;
[0017] A first elastic support member is provided between the inner wall surface of the casing and the door body.
[0018] In some embodiments of the present application, the vertical air conditioner is provided with an air-conditioning outlet on the casing. Driven by the heat exchange fan, the indoor air in the first chamber exchanges heat with the indoor heat exchanger, and then the heated air can flow out of the air-conditioning outlet. By providing a movable door, the movement mechanism of the movable door can drive the door body to move, thereby opening or closing the air-conditioning outlet. By providing a first elastic support member between the inner wall surface of the casing and the door body, the first elastic support member can provide support for the casing. During the transportation of the vertical air conditioner, the first elastic support member can support the casing, thereby reducing the occurrence of depression or even cracking of the casing at the position corresponding to the door body, allowing the door body to move normally relative to the air-conditioning outlet, and reducing the impact on the appearance of the vertical air conditioner.
[0019] As an optional implementation manner, in an embodiment of the first aspect of the present utility model, the first elastic support member is provided on the door body, and / or the first elastic support member is provided on the inner wall surface of the casing.
[0020] A first elastic support member can be provided on the door body and the inner wall of the casing. The first elastic support member can play the role of supporting the casing and can be selected according to actual conditions, thereby improving the flexibility of the setting of the first elastic support member.
[0021] As an optional implementation, in an embodiment of the first aspect of the present utility model, the first elastic support member is extended along the width direction of the door body, and the first elastic support member is arranged in contact with the door body.
[0022] On the one hand, the first elastic support member has a sufficient width in the width direction of the door body, which increases the contact area between the first elastic support member and the door body and the inner wall surface of the casing, thereby improving the supporting effect of the first elastic support member on the casing; on the other hand, the first elastic support member is fitted with the door body, which can make the first elastic support member have a closer contact with the door body, and the door body can provide better support for the first elastic support member, thereby improving the supporting effect of the first elastic support member on the casing. In addition, due to the gap between the casing and the door body, when the door body closes the air-conditioning outlet, from the appearance, a "black edge" will be generated between the edge of the air-conditioning outlet and the door body, affecting the user experience. By providing a first elastic support member extending along the height direction of the casing between the door body and the casing, the first elastic support member can block the gap between the edge of the air-conditioning outlet and the door body, so that from the appearance, there is no "black edge" between the edge of the air-conditioning outlet and the door body, thereby improving the aesthetics of the indoor unit.
[0023] As an optional implementation, in the embodiment of the first aspect of the present utility model, when the first elastic support member is provided on the door body;
[0024] The first elastic support member is fixed to the door body, or the first elastic support member is detachably provided on the door body.
[0025] When the first elastic support member is fixed to the door body, on the one hand, since the first elastic support member is fixed to the door body and the connection with the door body is relatively stable, the door body can provide better support for the first elastic support member, thereby improving the supporting effect of the first elastic support member on the casing; on the other hand, during the transportation of the indoor unit, the first elastic support member will not separate from the door body, and the first elastic support member can always be between the door body and the inner wall surface of the casing, ensuring that the first elastic support member can provide support for the casing; on the other hand, during the use of the indoor unit, the first elastic support member will not hinder the movement of the door body relative to the air outlet of the air conditioner. At the same time, it can play a buffering and shock-absorbing role between the door body and the casing, making the movement of the door body more stable, and reducing the occurrence of abnormal noise caused by collision with the casing during the movement of the door body.
[0026] When the first elastic support member is detachably provided on the door body, it is only necessary to set the first elastic support member on the door body during the transportation of the indoor unit. The structure is simple and the cost is low. After the transportation of the indoor unit is completed, the first elastic support member can be removed from the door body without affecting the movement of the door body relative to the casing.
[0027] As an optional embodiment, in an embodiment of the first aspect of the present utility model, the first elastic support member is extended along the height direction of the casing, the door body has a first side and a second side along the width direction of the casing, the first elastic support member is arranged adjacent to the first side, and / or the first elastic support member is arranged adjacent to the second side.
[0028] Since the door body needs to block the air-conditioning outlet of the casing, the width of the door body in the width direction of the casing will be greater than or slightly greater than the width of the air-conditioning outlet, that is, when the door body closes the air-conditioning outlet, the first side and the second side of the door body will be located inside the casing. Similarly, during the transportation of the indoor unit, the door body will usually close the air-conditioning outlet, that is, at this time, the first side and the second side of the door body are both located inside the casing. By setting the first elastic support member adjacent to the first side, during the transportation of the indoor unit, the first elastic support member is located between the first side and the inner wall surface of the casing, and setting the first elastic support member adjacent to the second side, during the transportation of the indoor unit, the first elastic support member is located between the second side and the inner wall surface of the casing, ensuring that the first elastic support member can support the casing. At the same time, the first elastic support member does not need to be set on the entire door body. Under the premise of ensuring that the first elastic support member can effectively support the casing, the setting area of the first elastic support member can be reduced.
[0029] As an optional implementation, in an embodiment of the first aspect of the present utility model, when the door body closes the air-conditioning outlet, the side of the air-conditioning outlet is arranged flush with the first elastic support member in the width direction of the casing.
[0030] On the one hand, under the premise of ensuring that the first elastic support member can effectively support the casing, the setting area of the first elastic support member can be further reduced. On the other hand, when the door body closes the air-conditioning outlet, the first elastic support member can be hidden in the casing. From the appearance, the first elastic support member will not protrude from the side of the air-conditioning outlet. At the same time, the first elastic support member can just block the gap between the edge of the air-conditioning outlet and the door body. There will be no "black edge" between the edge of the air-conditioning outlet and the door body, which improves the aesthetics of the indoor unit.
[0031] As an optional implementation manner, in an embodiment of the first aspect of the present utility model, the material of the first elastic support member is any one or more of EVA sponge, rubber, TPE, and PE sponge.
[0032] The use of any one or more of the above materials can not only make the first elastic support member have better elasticity, provide a certain deformable space for the door body and the casing, and avoid the door body and the casing being squeezed and damaged by the first elastic support member when they are deformed outward or bulging due to gravity or thermal stress, thereby providing a better buffering effect for the door body and the casing; at the same time, it can also make the first elastic support member have better support, and during the transportation of the vertical air conditioner, it can reduce the occurrence of dents or even cracks in the casing at the position corresponding to the door body due to collision, so that the door body can move normally relative to the air outlet of the air conditioner, and ensure the beautiful appearance of the vertical air conditioner.
[0033] As an optional implementation, in an embodiment of the first aspect of the present utility model, the motion mechanism is configured to drive the door body to slide.
[0034] The motion mechanism can drive the door body to slide, so that the door body opens or closes the air outlet of the air conditioner.
[0035] As an optional embodiment, in an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention, when the door body has a first side and a second side along the width direction of the casing, the movement mechanism is configured to drive the door body to slide along the first side toward the second side to open the air outlet of the air conditioner;
[0036] The first elastic support member is extended along the height direction of the housing, and the first elastic support member is disposed adjacent to the second side.
[0037] Since the motion mechanism slides from the first side of the door body to the second side, in order to prevent the door body from colliding with the casing during movement, the sliding trajectory of the casing corresponding to the second side of the door body needs to have a certain amount of clearance between the door body and the casing, which makes it difficult to set sheet metal parts or other components at this position of the casing to strengthen the support of the door body. In other words, during the transportation of the vertical air conditioner, there must be a certain gap between the second side of the door body and the casing. The position of the casing corresponding to the second side of the door body is not supported by the second side of the door body, and this position is prone to dents or even cracks. In some embodiments of the present application, by arranging the first elastic support member adjacent to the second side, the first elastic support member can provide support for the position of the casing corresponding to the second side of the door body, which can reduce the occurrence of dents or even cracks at this position during the transportation of the vertical air conditioner. At the same time, because the first elastic support member has elastic deformation properties, it can reduce the impact on the sliding of the door body, thereby allowing the door body to slide normally relative to the air outlet of the air conditioner, and ensuring the beautiful appearance of the vertical air conditioner.
[0038] As an optional implementation, in an embodiment of the first aspect of the present utility model, in the width direction of the housing, a side of the housing close to the second side is provided with a first rib protruding toward the interior space, and the first rib extends along the height direction of the housing;
[0039] The first elastic support member is arranged between the first rib and the door body.
[0040] The first rib and the first elastic support member together cover the gap between the edge of the air conditioner outlet and the door, and the first rib acts as a transitional element, further enhancing the aesthetics of the indoor unit. Furthermore, the first rib also increases the thickness of the air conditioner outlet's side, improving the structural strength of the housing at the location corresponding to the door, thereby further reducing the risk of dents or even cracks in this area.
[0041] In a second aspect, the present invention further discloses an air conditioner assembly, comprising a packaging member and the vertical air conditioner as described in the first aspect above;
[0042] A accommodating space is formed in the packaging member, and the accommodating space is used to accommodate the vertical air conditioner. The packaging member is provided with a protrusion protruding toward the accommodating space, and the protrusion is arranged at least corresponding to the first elastic support member, and the protrusion is used to support the casing.
[0043] In some embodiments of the air conditioning assembly of the present application, the packaging unit has a storage space capable of accommodating a vertical air conditioner. Because the housing is supported by the first elastic support member at a position corresponding to the first elastic support member, and the first elastic support member is supported by the door, the housing has a good load-bearing capacity at this position. During transportation of the air conditioning assembly formed by the packaging unit and the vertical air conditioner, the raised portion can support the housing at the position corresponding to the first elastic support member, thereby preventing the housing from denting or even cracking during transportation.
[0044] As an optional implementation, in an embodiment of the second aspect of the present utility model, a second elastic support member is provided on the protrusion, and the second elastic support member is located between the protrusion and the housing.
[0045] The second elastic support member can provide a buffering effect between the protrusion and the casing, thereby reducing the occurrence of the protrusion crushing the casing during the transportation of the air-conditioning assembly.
[0046] As an optional embodiment, in an embodiment of the second aspect of the present utility model, the casing includes a front shell, a rear shell and a panel seat, the front shell is connected to the rear shell to enclose the internal space, the front shell is provided with the air-conditioning outlet, the panel seat is provided in the internal space and connected to the front shell and the rear shell, the panel seat is provided with a heat exchange outlet connected to the air-conditioning outlet, the heat exchange volute is connected to the heat exchange outlet, the door body is located between the front shell and the panel seat, and the first elastic support member is provided between the inner wall surface of the front shell and the door body;
[0047] The motion mechanism is configured to drive the door body to slide, and the number of the motion mechanisms is two, and the two motion mechanisms are respectively connected to the top and bottom of the door body, and the two motion mechanisms are both provided on the panel seat, a first sliding portion is provided in the middle of the door body, and a second sliding portion is provided on the panel seat, and the first sliding portion is slidably connected to the second sliding portion;
[0048] There are multiple protrusions, and the multiple protrusions are arranged at intervals along the height direction of the casing, and at least one of the protrusions corresponds to one of the movement mechanisms, at least one of the protrusions corresponds to another of the movement mechanisms, and at least one of the protrusions corresponds to the first sliding portion.
[0049] Because the door's top motion mechanism, the middle first sliding portion, and the bottom motion mechanism provide three-point support for the door, the door has a higher load-bearing capacity at locations corresponding to the two motion mechanisms and the first sliding portion, and can also better support the front housing. Therefore, at least one raised portion is provided at locations corresponding to the two motion mechanisms and the first sliding portion. During transportation of the air conditioning assembly, the multiple raised portions jointly support the vertical air conditioner, and the vertical air conditioner is less likely to deform at locations corresponding to each raised portion. This results in a more reasonable load-bearing capacity for the vertical air conditioner, which is beneficial for improving safety during transportation of the vertical air conditioner.

[0114] In the above embodiments, the first elastic support member 14 can support the housing 10 . The location of the first elastic support member 14 can be selected according to actual conditions, thereby improving the flexibility of the location of the first elastic support member 14 .
[0115] In some embodiments, the first elastic support member 14 is extended along the width direction Y of the door body 13 , and the first elastic support member 14 is disposed in close contact with the door body 13 .
[0116] On the one hand, the first elastic support member 14 has a sufficient width in the width direction Y of the door body 13, thereby increasing the contact area between the first elastic support member 14 and the door body 13 and the inner wall surface of the casing 10, thereby improving the supporting effect of the first elastic support member 14 on the casing 10; on the other hand, the first elastic support member 14 is fitted with the door body 13, so that the first elastic support member 14 and the door body 13 can have a closer contact, and the door body 13 can provide better support for the first elastic support member 14, thereby improving the supporting effect of the first elastic support member 14 on the casing 10. In addition, since there is a gap between the casing 10 and the door body 13, when the door body 13 closes the air-conditioning outlet 101, from the appearance, a "black edge" will be generated between the edge of the air-conditioning outlet 101 and the door body 13, affecting the user's experience. By providing a first elastic support member 114 extending along the height direction X of the casing 10 between the door body 13 and the casing 10, the first elastic support member 14 can block the gap between the edge of the air-conditioning outlet 101 and the door body 13, so that from the appearance, there is no "black edge" between the edge of the air-conditioning outlet 101 and the door body 13, thereby improving the aesthetics of the appearance of the indoor unit 1.
[0117] In this embodiment, the first elastic support member 14 is arranged to fit the door body 13, which means that the shape of the first elastic support member 14 matches the outer contour of the door body 13, so that the first elastic support member 14 fits the door body 13. For example, if the door body 13 is arc-shaped in the width direction Y, the first elastic support member 14 is also arc-shaped in the width direction Y.
[0118] In some embodiments, the first elastic support member 14 is fixed to the door body 13 .
[0119] On the one hand, since the first elastic support member 14 is fixed to the door body 13 and the connection with the door body 13 is relatively stable, the door body 13 can provide better support for the first elastic support member 14, thereby improving the supporting effect of the first elastic support member 14 on the casing 10; on the other hand, during the transportation of the indoor unit 1, the first elastic support member 14 will not separate from the door body 13, and the first elastic support member 14 can be always between the door body 13 and the inner wall surface of the casing 10, ensuring that the first elastic support member 14 can provide support for the casing 10; on the other hand, during the use of the indoor unit 1, the first elastic support member 14 will not hinder the movement of the door body 13 relative to the air-conditioning outlet 101, and at the same time, it can play a buffering and shock-absorbing role between the door body 13 and the casing 10, making the movement of the door body 13 more stable, reducing the occurrence of abnormal noise caused by collision between the door body 13 and the casing 10 during movement.
[0120] Optionally, the first elastic support member 14 may be fixed to the door body 13 by bonding, integral molding, etc., and the specific method may be selected according to actual conditions and is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
[0121] In some embodiments, the first elastic support member 14 is detachably mounted on the door body 13 .
[0122] In this way, it is only necessary to set the first elastic support member 14 on the door body 13 during the transportation of the indoor unit 1. The structure is simple and the cost is low. After the transportation of the indoor unit 1 is completed, the first elastic support member 14 can be removed from the door body 13 without affecting the movement of the door body 13 relative to the casing 10.
[0123] Optionally, the first elastic support member 14 can be detachably provided on the door body 13 by interference fit, snap connection, etc., which can be selected according to actual conditions and is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
[0124] In some embodiments, the first elastic support member 14 extends along the height direction X of the housing 10 .
[0125] The first elastic support member 14 has a sufficient length in the height direction X of the door body 13, thereby increasing the contact area between the first elastic support member 14 and the door body 13 and the inner wall surface of the casing 10, thereby improving the supporting effect of the first elastic support member 14 on the casing 10.
[0126] In addition, due to the gap between the housing 10 and the door body 13, when the door body 13 closes the air-conditioning outlet 101, a "black edge" will be generated between the edge of the air-conditioning outlet 101 and the door body 13, which is not good in appearance. The present application provides a first elastic support member 14 extending along the height direction X of the housing 10 between the door body 13 and the housing 10. The first elastic support member 14 can block the gap between the edge of the air-conditioning outlet 101 and the door body 13, so that there is no "black edge" between the edge of the air-conditioning outlet 101 and the door body 13, which is conducive to improving the aesthetics of the appearance of the indoor unit 1.
[0127] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the door 13 has a first side 130 and a second side 131 along the width direction Y of the housing 10 .
[0128] Since the door body 13 needs to block the air-conditioning outlet 101 of the casing 10, the width of the door body 13 is greater than or slightly greater than the width of the air-conditioning outlet 101 in the width direction Y of the casing 10, that is, when the door body 13 closes the air-conditioning outlet 101, the first side 130 and the second side 131 of the door body 13 are located inside the casing 10.
[0129] Similarly, during transportation of the indoor unit 1 , the door 13 is usually made to close the air-conditioning outlet 101 , that is, at this time, the first side 130 and the second side 131 of the door 13 are both located inside the casing 10 .
[0130] In some embodiments, the first elastic support member 14 is disposed adjacent to the first side 130 .
[0131] By arranging the first elastic support member 14 adjacent to the first side 130, during transportation of the indoor unit 1, the first elastic support member 14 is located between the first side 130 and the inner wall of the casing 10, ensuring that the first elastic support member 14 can support the casing 10. Furthermore, the first elastic support member 14 does not need to be arranged on the entire door body 13. While ensuring that the first elastic support member 14 can effectively support the casing 10, the area where the first elastic support member 14 is arranged can be reduced.
[0132] In this embodiment, the first elastic support member 14 is arranged near the first side 130, which means that the first elastic support member 14 can be arranged exactly on the first side 130, or can be arranged roughly near the first side 130, that is, in the width direction Y of the casing 10, the first elastic support member 14 is at least close to the first side 130 relative to the center line of the door body 13.
[0133] In some embodiments, the first elastic support member 14 is disposed adjacent to the second side 131 .
[0134] By arranging the first elastic support member 14 adjacent to the second side 131, during transportation of the indoor unit 1, the first elastic support member 14 is located between the second side 131 and the inner wall of the casing 10, ensuring that the first elastic support member 14 can support the casing 10. Furthermore, the first elastic support member 14 does not need to be arranged on the entire door body 13. While ensuring that the first elastic support member 14 can effectively support the casing 10, the area where the first elastic support member 14 is arranged can be reduced.
[0135] In this embodiment, the first elastic support member 14 is arranged near the second side 131, which means that the first elastic support member 14 can be arranged exactly on the second side 131, or can be arranged roughly near the second side 131, that is, in the width direction Y of the casing 10, the first elastic support member 14 is at least close to the second side 131 relative to the center line of the door body 13.
[0136] In some embodiments, the number of the first elastic supporting members 14 is two, one first elastic supporting member 14 is disposed adjacent to the first side 130 , and the other first elastic supporting member 14 is disposed adjacent to the second side 131 .
[0137] By disposing a first elastic support member 14 adjacent to the first side 130, during transportation of the indoor unit 1, the first elastic support member 14 is located between the first side 130 and the inner wall of the casing 10, and disposing another first elastic support member 14 adjacent to the second side 131, during transportation of the indoor unit 1, the first elastic support member 14 is located between the second side 131 and the inner wall of the casing 10. The two first elastic support members 14 can respectively support the casing 10 located on both sides of the air-conditioning outlet 101, thereby achieving better support for the casing 10. At the same time, the first elastic support member 14 does not need to be disposed on the entire door body 13. Under the premise of ensuring that the first elastic support member 14 can effectively support the casing 10, the installation area of the first elastic support member 14 can be reduced.
[0138] In some embodiments, when the door 13 closes the air-conditioning outlet 101 , the side of the air-conditioning outlet 101 is flush with the first elastic support member 14 in the width direction Y of the housing 10 .
[0139] On the one hand, under the premise of ensuring that the first elastic support member 14 can effectively support the casing 10, the setting area of the first elastic support member 14 can be further reduced. On the other hand, when the door body 13 closes the air-conditioning outlet 101, the first elastic support member 14 can be hidden in the casing 10. From the appearance, the first elastic support member 14 will not protrude from the side of the air-conditioning outlet 101. At the same time, the first elastic support member 14 can just block the gap between the edge of the air-conditioning outlet and the door body 13. There will be no "black edge" between the edge of the air-conditioning outlet 1101 and the door body 13, which improves the aesthetics of the appearance of the indoor unit 1.
[0140] It can be understood that the side of the air-conditioning outlet 101 is set flush with the first elastic support member 14, which means that the side of the air-conditioning outlet 101 is roughly flush with the first elastic support member 14, and it is not required that the two are strictly aligned, that is, the two can be roughly flush within an acceptable error range such as assembly tolerance and processing tolerance.
[0141] In some embodiments, the material of the first elastic support member 14 is any one or more of EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer) sponge, rubber, TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer), and PE (Polyethylene) sponge.
[0142] By using any one or more of the above materials, the first elastic support member 14 can have better elasticity, provide a certain deformable space for the door body 13 and the casing 10, avoid the door body 13 and the casing 10 from being squeezed and damaged by the first elastic support member 14 when they are deformed outward or bulged due to gravity or thermal stress, and provide better buffering effect for the door body 13 and the casing 10; at the same time, the first elastic support member 14 can have better support, and during the transportation of the vertical air conditioner, it can reduce the occurrence of dents or even cracks in the position of the casing 10 corresponding to the door body 13 due to collision, so that the door body 13 can move normally relative to the air-conditioning outlet 101, and ensure the beautiful appearance of the vertical air conditioner.
[0143] Among them, the material of the first elastic support member 14 is any combination of EVA sponge, rubber, TPE, and PE sponge, which means that the first elastic support member 14 can include any combination of the above materials. For example, the first elastic support member 14 can include a mixed material of EVA sponge and PE sponge, or the first elastic support member 14 is partially made of rubber material and partially made of TPE material, etc.
[0144] In some embodiments, the motion mechanism 12 is configured to drive the door body 13 to slide.
[0145] Thus, the motion mechanism 12 can drive the door body 13 to slide, so that the door body 13 opens or closes the air-conditioning outlet 101. That is, the door body 13 of the vertical air conditioner is a sliding door body 13.
[0146] In some embodiments, the motion mechanism 12 is configured to drive the door body 13 to slide along the first side 130 toward the second side 131 to open the air-conditioning outlet 101; the first elastic support member 14 is extended along the height direction X of the casing 10, and the first elastic support member 14 is arranged adjacent to the second side 131.
[0147] Because the motion mechanism 12 slides from the first side 130 of the door body 13 toward the second side 131 of the door body 13, to prevent the door body 13 from colliding with the housing 10 during movement, a certain clearance is required between the housing 10 and the second side 131 of the door body 13. This makes it difficult to install sheet metal or other components at this location on the housing 10 to strengthen support for the door body 13. That is, during transportation of the vertical air conditioner, a certain gap inevitably exists between the second side 131 of the door body 13 and the housing 10. The location of the housing 10 corresponding to the second side 131 of the door body 13 is not supported by the second side 131 of the door body 13, making this location susceptible to denting or even cracking. In some embodiments of the present application, by positioning the first elastic support member 14 adjacent to the second side 131, the first elastic support member 14 can provide support for the location of the housing 10 corresponding to the second side 131 of the door body 13, thereby reducing the risk of denting or even cracking at this location during transportation of the vertical air conditioner. At the same time, the first elastic support member 14 can reduce the impact on the sliding of the door body 13 due to its elastic deformation performance, thereby ensuring that the door body 13 can slide normally relative to the air outlet 101 of the air conditioner, and ensuring the beautiful appearance of the vertical air conditioner.
[0148] In some embodiments, in the width direction Y of the housing 10 , a first rib 104 protruding toward the interior space 100 is provided on a side of the housing 10 close to the second side 131 . The first rib 104 extends along the height direction X of the housing 10 .
[0149] In some embodiments, the first baffle 104 extends from a side of the air-conditioning outlet 101 close to the second side 131 toward the interior space 100 , and an angle is formed between the first baffle and the housing 10 .
[0150] In some embodiments, the first elastic support member 14 is disposed between the first retaining edge 104 and the door body 13 .
[0151] The first retaining edge 104 and the first elastic support member 14 can jointly cover the gap between the edge of the air-conditioning outlet 101 and the door body 13, and the first retaining edge 104 can also serve as a transition in appearance, further improving the aesthetics of the indoor unit 1. At the same time, the provision of the first retaining edge 104 can also increase the thickness of the side of the air-conditioning outlet 101, improving the structural strength of the casing 10 at the position corresponding to the door body 13, thereby further reducing the possibility of dents or even cracks in this position.
[0152] See also Figure 5In some embodiments, the casing 10 includes a front shell 10a, a rear shell 10c and a panel seat 10b. The front shell 10a is connected to the rear shell 10c to enclose an internal space 100. The front shell 10a is provided with an air-conditioning outlet 101. The panel seat 10b is provided in the internal space 100 and is connected to the front shell 10a and the rear shell 10c.
[0153] In some embodiments, the panel seat 10 b is provided with a heat exchange air outlet 103 connected to the air conditioning outlet 101 , and the heat exchange volute 11 is connected to the heat exchange air outlet 103 .
[0154] In some embodiments, the rear housing 10 c is provided with a heat exchange air inlet 102 , and the heat exchange volute 11 is connected to the heat exchange air inlet 102 .
[0155] In some embodiments, the door 13 is located between the front housing 10 a and the panel seat 10 b .
[0156] In some embodiments, a first elastic support member 14 is disposed between the inner wall of the front housing 10a and the door 13. Since the front housing 10a is the exterior component of the vertical air conditioner, it is difficult to construct the front housing 10a with strong structural strength for the sake of the vertical air conditioner's aesthetics, and is typically relatively fragile. The first elastic support member 14 can provide support for the front housing 10a, reducing the risk of the housing 10 denting or even cracking at the location corresponding to the door 13 during transportation of the vertical air conditioner, ensuring that the door 13 can move normally relative to the air outlet 101, and maintaining the aesthetics of the vertical air conditioner.
[0157] In some embodiments, a first rib 104 protruding toward the interior space 100 is provided on a side of the front housing 10 a close to the second side 131 .
[0158] In some embodiments, a first snap-fit portion 105 is provided on a side of the front housing 10a facing away from the air-conditioning outlet 101 , and a second snap-fit portion 106 is provided on the panel seat 10b , and the second snap-fit portion 106 is snap-connected to the first snap-fit portion 105 .
[0159] The panel seat 10b is connected to the front shell 10a through the second clamping portion 106 and the first clamping portion 105, thereby providing support for the side of the front shell 10a away from the air-conditioning outlet 101, and the first elastic support member 14 can provide support for the side of the front shell 10a close to the air-conditioning outlet 101, so that the front shell 10a is supported on both the side close to the air-conditioning outlet 101 and the side away from the air-conditioning outlet 101, further improving the bearing capacity of the front shell 10a. During the transportation of the vertical air conditioner, the occurrence of dents or even cracks in the front shell 10a can be further reduced.
[0160] Optionally, one of the first clamping portion 105 and the second clamping portion 106 may be a hook, and the other may be a slot. The specific selection can be made according to actual conditions and is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
[0161] Please also refer to Figures 8 to 10 In some embodiments, the motion mechanism 12 is configured to drive the door body 13 to slide; there are two motion mechanisms 12, the two motion mechanisms 12 are respectively connected to the top and bottom of the door body 13, and the two motion mechanisms 12 are both provided on the panel seat 10b.
[0162] By respectively arranging two motion mechanisms 12 at the top and bottom of the door body 13, on the one hand, the stability of the door body 13 when sliding can be improved, and on the other hand, support can be provided for the top and bottom of the door body 13 respectively, so that the door body 13 itself is not easily deformed when subjected to direct force or force transmitted by the first elastic support member 14 and the front shell 10a, thereby improving the overall structural strength of the vertical air conditioner.
[0163] Please also refer to Figures 5 to 7 In some embodiments, a first sliding portion 132 is provided in the middle of the door body 13 , a second sliding portion 107 is provided on the panel seat 10 b , and the first sliding portion 132 is slidably connected to the second sliding portion 107 .
[0164] Through the top movement mechanism 12, the middle first sliding part 132 and the bottom movement mechanism 12, three-point support can be provided for the door body 13. On the one hand, the stability of the door body 13 when sliding can be further improved. On the other hand, support can be provided for the top, middle and bottom of the door body 13 respectively, so that the door body 13 itself is less likely to deform when it is directly subjected to force or the force transmitted by the first elastic support member 14 and the front shell 10a, thereby improving the overall structural strength of the vertical air conditioner.
[0165] Optionally, one of the first sliding portion 132 and the second sliding portion 107 can be a slider, and the other can be a sliding groove. The specific selection can be made according to actual conditions and is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
[0166] In some embodiments, the motion mechanism 12 includes a carrier 120, a rack 121, a gear 122 and a motor 123. The carrier 120 is arranged in the internal space 100 of the casing 10, the rack 121 is slidingly connected to the carrier 120, the rack 121 is meshedly connected to the gear 122, the gear 122 is rotatably connected to the carrier 120, the gear 122 is connected to the motor 123, the motor 123 is arranged on the carrier 120, and the motor 123 is configured to drive the gear 122 to rotate so that the rack 121 drives the door body 13 to slide.
[0167] In some embodiments, the supporting member 120 includes a first mounting seat 1200 and a second mounting seat 11202 connected to each other, the motor 123 is installed on the first mounting seat 1200, the gear 122 is rotatably disposed on the second mounting seat 1202 and is located between the first mounting seat 1200 and the second mounting seat 1202, and the rack 121 is slidably connected between the first mounting seat 1200 and the second mounting seat 1202.
[0168] In some embodiments, a first guide groove 1201 is formed on the first mounting seat 1200, a second guide groove 1203 is formed on the second mounting seat 1202, a first guide column 1210 is formed on one side of the rack 121, and a second guide column 1211 is formed on the other side of the rack 121. The first guide column 1210 can be slidably embedded in the first guide groove 1201, and the second guide column 1211 can be slidably embedded in the second guide groove 1203.
[0169] Using the motion mechanism 12 of this embodiment, in the thickness direction Z of the casing 10, the first mounting seat 1200 and the second mounting seat 1202 have a larger contact area with the rack 121, so that the rack 121 has a stronger load-bearing capacity. Therefore, under the support of the rack 121, the door body 13 also has a stronger load-bearing capacity, so that the front shell 10a can be better supported by the first elastic support member 14.
[0170] Please also refer to Figure 11 and Figure 12 The second aspect of the embodiment of the present application further discloses an air conditioning assembly 2, including a packaging member 20 and a vertical air conditioner as described in the first aspect of the embodiment above.
[0171] In some embodiments, a accommodating space 200 is formed in the packaging 20, and the accommodating space 200 is used to accommodate a vertical air conditioner. The packaging 20 is provided with a protrusion 201 protruding toward the accommodating space 200, and the protrusion 201 is provided at least corresponding to the first elastic support member 14, and the protrusion 201 is used to support the casing 10.
[0172] The accommodating space 200 of the packaging 20 is capable of accommodating a vertical air conditioner. Because the housing 10 is supported by the first elastic support member 14 at a position corresponding to the first elastic support member 14, and the first elastic support member 14 is supported by the door 13, the housing 10 has a good load-bearing capacity at this position. During transportation of the air conditioner assembly 2 formed by the packaging 20 and the vertical air conditioner, the raised portion 201 can support the housing 10 at the position corresponding to the first elastic support member 14, thereby preventing the housing 10 from denting or even cracking during transportation.
[0173] Optionally, the packaging member 20 may be a box-shaped structure or a shell structure, etc., which may be selected according to actual conditions and is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
[0174] Please also refer to Figure 13 and Figure 14 In some embodiments, the packaging member 20 includes a first portion 20a and a second portion 20b, which are connected to form a receiving space 200. By configuring the packaging member 20 as the first portion 20a and the second portion 20b, the first portion 20a and the second portion 20b can be placed on a vertical air conditioner, respectively, and then connected to form the first portion 20a and the second portion 20b, thereby simplifying the packaging process.
[0175] In this embodiment, the raised portion 201 may also be provided at other locations of the housing 10 having a better load-bearing capacity, such as the top and bottom of the housing 10 . The specific selection may be made based on actual conditions and is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
[0176] Optionally, the raised portion 201 can be a component independently provided from the packaging 20, that is, the raised portion 201 and the packaging 20 are produced separately, and then the raised portion 201 is installed on the packaging 20, or the raised portion 201 can be integrally formed with the packaging 20. The specific selection can be made according to actual conditions and is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
[0177] In some embodiments, a second elastic support member 202 is provided on the protrusion 201 , and the second elastic support member 202 is located between the protrusion 201 and the housing 10 .
[0178] The second elastic support member 202 can provide a buffering effect between the protrusion 201 and the casing 10, thereby reducing the occurrence of the protrusion 201 crushing the casing 10 when an accident such as the air-conditioning assembly 2 falling occurs during transportation of the air-conditioning assembly 2.
[0179] In some embodiments, the elastic modulus of the protrusion 201 is E1, and the elastic modulus of the second elastic support member 202 is E2, satisfying: E1>E2.
[0180] By configuring the elastic modulus E2 of the second elastic support member 202 to be smaller than the elastic modulus E1 of the protrusion 201, that is, the second elastic support member 202 has better elasticity than the protrusion 201, and compared with the direct contact between the casing 10 and the protrusion 201, the second elastic support member 202 can provide a certain deformable space for the casing 10, thereby preventing the casing 10 from being damaged by hard contact and squeezing when it is deformed outward due to gravity or thermal stress. At the same time, it can also provide a buffering effect between the protrusion 201 and the casing 10. During the transportation of the air-conditioning component 2, it can reduce the phenomenon of the protrusion 201 crushing the casing 10 when the air-conditioning component 2 falls or is hit.
[0181] Optionally, the material of the protrusion 201 may be foam, EPE (Expandable Polyethylene) or EPS (Expandable Polystyrene), etc., which can be selected according to actual conditions and is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
[0182] Optionally, the material of the second elastic support member 202 can be any one or more of EVA sponge, rubber, TPE, and PE sponge. The specific setting can be made with reference to the first elastic support member 14 and will not be repeated here.
[0183] In some embodiments, the distance between the protrusion 201 and the housing 10 is d, and the distance d satisfies: d≤6 mm.
[0184] When there is enough space for the second elastic support member 202 , the distance between the raised portion 201 and the housing 10 will not be too large, thereby ensuring that the raised portion 201 has good support for the housing 10 .
[0185] In some embodiments, the distance between the protrusion 201 and the housing 10 is d, and the distance d satisfies: d≥3 mm.
[0186] Taking into account the errors in the overall dimensions of the vertical air conditioner caused by factors such as the processing tolerance and assembly tolerance of the vertical air conditioner, by ensuring that the distance d between the protrusion 201 and the casing 10 is ≥ 3mm, a certain gap can be left between the casing 10 and the protrusion 201, ensuring that the vertical air conditioner can be placed in the packaging 20. At the same time, compared with the situation where the casing 10 is in close contact with the protrusion 201, when the air conditioner assembly 2 falls or is hit during transportation, the instantaneous impact of the protrusion 201 on the casing 10 can be reduced, thereby reducing the occurrence of dents or even breakage of the casing 10.
[0187] In some embodiments, the distance d between the protrusion 201 and the housing 10 satisfies: 3mm≤d≤6mm. For example, the distance d between the protrusion 201 and the housing 10 can be 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, or 6mm.
[0188] On the one hand, while leaving enough space for the second elastic support member 202, the distance between the protrusion 201 and the casing 10 will not be too large, ensuring that the protrusion 201 has good support for the casing 10. On the other hand, taking into account the error in the overall size of the vertical air conditioner caused by factors such as the processing tolerance and assembly tolerance of the vertical air conditioner, by making the distance d between the protrusion 201 and the casing 10 ≥ 3mm, a certain gap can be left between the casing 10 and the protrusion 201, ensuring that the vertical air conditioner can be placed in the packaging 20. At the same time, compared with the situation where the casing 10 is in close contact with the protrusion 201, when the air-conditioning component 2 falls or is hit during transportation, the instantaneous impact of the protrusion 201 on the casing 10 can be reduced, thereby reducing the occurrence of dents or even breakage of the casing 10.
[0189] In this embodiment, the distance between the raised portion 201 and the housing 10 is a theoretical distance reserved during design, and does not refer to the actual distance measured between the vertical air conditioner and the raised portion 201 after the vertical air conditioner is installed in the packaging 20.
[0190] In some embodiments, there are multiple protrusions 201 , and the multiple protrusions 201 are arranged at intervals along the height direction X of the housing 10 .
[0191] By arranging multiple protrusions 201 at intervals in the height direction X of the casing 10, the multiple protrusions 201 can respectively support different positions of the casing 10, so that the force on the casing 10 is more uniform in the height direction X. During the transportation of the air-conditioning component 2, the occurrence of excessive local force on the casing 10 and easy deformation can be reduced.
[0192] In some embodiments, when the housing 10 includes a front housing 10a, a rear housing 10c, and a panel seat 10b, the front housing 10a and the rear housing 10c are connected to enclose an internal space 100, the front housing 10a is provided with an air-conditioning outlet 101, the panel seat 10b is provided in the internal space 100, and is connected to the front housing 10a and the rear housing 10c, the panel seat 10b is provided with a heat exchange outlet 103 connected to the air-conditioning outlet 101, the heat exchange volute 11 is connected to the heat exchange outlet 103, and the door body 13 is located in the front housing 10 a and the panel seat 10b, a first elastic support member 14 is provided between the inner wall surface of the front housing 10a and the door body 13, a motion mechanism 12 is configured to drive the door body 13 to slide, the number of the motion mechanisms 12 is two, the two motion mechanisms 12 are respectively connected to the top and bottom of the door body 13, and the two motion mechanisms 12 are both provided on the panel seat 10b, a first sliding portion 132 is provided in the middle of the door body 13, and a second sliding portion 107 is provided on the panel seat 10b, when the first sliding portion 132 is slidably connected to the second sliding portion 107;
[0193] At least one of the protrusions 201 is disposed corresponding to one movement mechanism 12 , at least one of the protrusions 201 is disposed corresponding to another movement mechanism 12 , and at least one of the protrusions 201 is disposed corresponding to the first sliding portion 132 .
[0194] Because the top movement mechanism 12, the middle first sliding portion 132, and the bottom movement mechanism 12 of the door body 13 provide three-point support for the door body 13, the door body 13 has a higher load-bearing capacity at the locations corresponding to the two movement mechanisms 12 and the first sliding portion 132, and can also better support the front housing 10a. Therefore, at least one raised portion 201 is provided at the locations corresponding to the two movement mechanisms 12 and the first sliding portion 132. During the transportation of the air conditioning assembly 2, the multiple raised portions 201 jointly support the vertical air conditioner. The vertical air conditioner is also less likely to deform at the locations corresponding to the raised portions 201, resulting in a more reasonable load-bearing capacity for the vertical air conditioner and improving the safety of the vertical air conditioner during transportation.
[0195] At least one of the raised portions 201 is arranged corresponding to a moving mechanism 12, which means that the package 20 can be provided with one, two or three raised portions 201 of equal number at the position corresponding to the moving mechanism 12. Similarly, at least one of the raised portions 201 is arranged corresponding to another moving mechanism 12, which means that the package 20 can be provided with one, two or three raised portions 201 of equal number at the position corresponding to the other moving mechanism 12. At least one of the raised portions 201 is arranged corresponding to the first sliding portion 132, which means that the package 20 can be provided with one, two or three raised portions 201 of equal number at the position corresponding to the first sliding portion 132. The specific selection can be made according to actual conditions and is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
[0196] Optionally, when a second elastic support member 202 is provided on the raised portion 201, the second elastic support member 202 can be provided on some of the raised portions 201 among the multiple raised portions 201, or on all of the raised portions 201. The specific selection can be made according to actual conditions and is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
[0197] In this embodiment, when the second elastic support member 202 is provided on the protrusion 201, the front housing 10a is mainly in direct contact with the second elastic support member 202, that is, the front housing 10a is mainly subjected to force at the position corresponding to the second elastic support member 202. Figure 13 As shown, second elastic support members 202 can be respectively provided on the protrusions 201 corresponding to the two motion mechanisms 12 and the first sliding portion 132 . The number of the protrusions 201 can be equal to or greater than the number of the second elastic support members 202 .
[0198] In some embodiments, the vertical air conditioner is configured to be packaged in the accommodating space 200 in a horizontal manner, with the front housing 10 a disposed downward, and the protrusion 201 is used to support the front housing 10 a.
[0199] Because the front housing 10a of the presently disclosed stand-alone air conditioner has a good load-bearing capacity, the air conditioner can be placed horizontally, and the raised portion 201 supports the front housing 10a, making the load-bearing method of the stand-alone air conditioner more reasonable during transportation and preventing deformation. Furthermore, because the rear housing 10c of a stand-alone air conditioner typically includes a heat exchange air inlet 102, the rear housing 10c has a relatively poor load-bearing capacity. This packaging method can reduce the load on the rear housing 10c during transportation, thereby effectively protecting the rear housing 10c.
