[0065] The air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0066] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes a housing 1, a perforated plate 2, and a switch door 3.

[0067] Specifically, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the housing 1 includes a housing body 13 and an air outlet frame 14. Figure 1In the example shown, the air conditioner 100 is a vertical air conditioner 100. The housing body 13 includes a chassis 131, a front housing 132, a rear housing 133, and a top cover 134. The front housing 132 and the rear housing 133 are both located on the chassis 131 and connected to the chassis 131. The front housing 132 is located in front of the rear housing 133 and connected to the rear housing 133. The top cover 134 is located above the front housing 132 and the rear housing 133 and is connected to both the front housing 132 and the rear housing 133. The chassis 131, the front housing 132, the rear housing 133, and the top cover 134 together define the installation space. The rear housing 133 is provided with an air inlet 19, the front housing 132 is provided with an air outlet 11, the air outlet frame 14 is located inside the housing 1, the air outlet frame 14 has an air outlet duct 141, the air outlet duct 141 has an inlet 143 and an outlet 144, the inlet 143 is connected to the air inlet 19, and the outlet 144 is connected to the air outlet 11.

[0068] like Figure 3 As shown, the shell body 13 also includes a fan assembly and a heat exchanger 8. The heat exchanger 8 is positioned opposite the air inlet 19. Along the airflow direction, the fan 9 is located between the heat exchanger 8 and the air outlet frame 14. The fan 9 drives the airflow from the air inlet 19 to the air outlet duct 141, and then to the air outlet 11. The heat exchanger 8 is used for heat exchange. It can exchange heat with the airflow entering the shell body 13. The heat-exchanged airflow flows from the air outlet 11 into the room, thus realizing the cooling or heating function of the air conditioner 100.

[0069] The fan assembly may include a fan 9 and a drive assembly for driving the fan 9 to rotate. The fan 9 may be a cross-flow fan, and the drive assembly may include a drive motor, the motor shaft of which is connected to the fan 9 for driving the fan 9 to rotate. Of course, this utility model is not limited to this; the fan 9 may also be a centrifugal fan or an axial fan, etc.

[0070] refer to Figures 1-3 As shown, the housing 1 has an air outlet 11, which can be located on the housing body 13. The housing 1 has a first cavity 12 located on one side of the width direction of the air outlet 11 and communicating with it. It can be understood that when the air conditioner 100 is a vertical air conditioner, the air outlet 11 extends vertically, its length direction is vertical, it is located on the front side of the housing 1, and its width direction is horizontal. The first cavity 12 can be located on the left side of the air outlet 11, with its right side open and communicating with the air outlet 11; or the first cavity 12 can be located on the right side of the air outlet 11, with its left side open and communicating with the air outlet 11.

[0071] exist Figure 3 In the example shown, the first cavity 12 is located to the right of the air outlet 11, and the left side of the first cavity 12 is open and connected to the air outlet 11.

[0072] The first cavity 12 may be located between the shell body 13 and the air outlet frame 14, and is defined by the shell 1 and the air outlet frame 14, or the first cavity 12 may be located inside the air outlet frame 14.

[0073] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the perforated plate 2 is movably disposed at the air outlet 11 to open or close the air outlet 11. When the air outlet 11 is open, the perforated plate 2 is located within the first cavity 12, and the perforated plate 2 has multiple spaced ventilation holes 211. For example, the perforated plate 2 can move in the width direction of the air outlet 11 to open or close the air outlet 11. For example, the perforated plate 2 can rotate relative to the housing 1, or the perforated plate 2 can move relative to the housing 1 along the width direction of the air outlet 11. When the air outlet 11 is open, the airflow in the air outlet duct 141 can be directly discharged into the room through the air outlet 11. Due to the absence of obstruction by the perforated plate 2, the airflow velocity is relatively high, resulting in higher cooling and heating efficiency. When the air outlet 11 is closed by the perforated plate 2, the airflow in the air outlet duct 141 can be discharged into the room through the ventilation holes 211 on the perforated plate 2. During the process of flowing out of the air outlet 11, the airflow velocity is reduced and the airflow is dispersed due to the obstruction of the perforated plate 2 and the dispersion of the ventilation holes 211 on the perforated plate 2, which can achieve a windless effect.

[0074] In addition, since the perforated plate 2 is a large plate structure, the number of ventilation holes 211 set on the perforated plate 2 is relatively larger than the number of ventilation holes 211 set on the air guide plate 5 and louvers 61, which can increase the air outlet area, increase the air volume in the windless mode, and improve the cooling and heating effect.

[0075] In addition, when the perforated plate 2 opens the air outlet 11, the perforated plate 2 is located inside the first cavity 12. The first cavity 12 is located on one side of the width direction of the air outlet duct 141 and is spaced apart from the air outlet duct 141. This can prevent the perforated plate 2 from being located inside the duct when the air outlet 11 is opened, thus avoiding affecting the airflow. It can ensure the smooth flow of air in the air outlet duct 141, reduce the resistance of airflow, and reduce the noise generated by the airflow.

[0076] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the switch door 3 is movably mounted on the housing 1 and is used to open or close the air outlet 11. When both the switch door 3 and the perforated plate 2 are closed, the switch door 3 is located downstream of the perforated plate 2 along the airflow direction. When the air conditioner 100 is off, the switch door 3 can close the air outlet 11, preventing external dust and other contaminants from entering the interior of the air conditioner 100 through the air outlet 11, thus achieving the effect of preventing insects and dust. In addition, the switch door 3 can also conceal the internal structure of the air outlet 11, improving the aesthetics of the air conditioner 100.

[0077] The switch door 3 can move in the width direction of the air outlet 11 to open or close the air outlet 11, or the switch door 3 can rotate relative to the housing 1 to open or close the air outlet 11. When the switch door 3 opens the air outlet 11, the switch door 3 can be located on one side in the width direction of the air outlet 11. In addition, when the switch door 3 opens the air outlet 11, the switch door 3 can be located on the outside or inside of the housing 1.

[0078] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner 100 has an orifice plate 2 with ventilation holes 211 at the air outlet 11. The orifice plate 2 is used to open or close the air outlet 11. When the air outlet 11 is closed, the air conditioner 100 can achieve a windless mode, with a large air outlet area, large air volume, and good cooling or heating effect. In addition, when the air outlet 11 is open, the orifice plate 2 is located in the first cavity 12, which can avoid the obstruction of airflow by the orifice plate 2 located in the air outlet duct 141, reduce the noise generated during airflow, and improve the user experience.

[0079] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a crossbeam 16 is provided inside the air outlet 11. The crossbeam 16 is spaced apart from both ends of the air outlet 11 along its length, and the two ends of the crossbeam 16 along its length are connected to the two ends of the air outlet 11 along its width. When the air outlet 11 is long, it is prone to deformation. Providing a crossbeam 16 inside the air outlet 11 can increase the structural strength of the shell 1 at the air outlet 11, improve the deformation of the air outlet 11, and thus make the structures located at the air outlet 11, such as the perforated plate 2 and the switch door 3, work more reliably.

[0080] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, combined with Figure 16 The perforated plate 2 is rotatably mounted on the housing 1. The perforated plate 2 includes a plate body 21 and a pivot arm 22. A ventilation hole 211 is provided on the plate body 21. The plate body 21 is used to open or close the air outlet 11. When the perforated plate 2 closes the air outlet 11, the plate body 21 is located downstream of the crossbeam 16 along the airflow direction. When the plate body 21 closes the air outlet 11, the crossbeam 16 can be hidden inside the plate body 21, improving the appearance of the air conditioner 100. When the plate body 21 closes the air outlet 11, the pivot arm 22 is located inside the plate body 21. One end of the pivot arm 22 is connected to the plate body 21, and the other end is rotatably connected to the housing 1. Through the rotatable connection between the pivot arm 22 and the housing 1, the plate body 21 is rotatably connected to the housing 1, thereby enabling the plate body 21 to open or close the air outlet 11, facilitating the connection between the plate body 21 and the housing 1.

[0081] Alternatively, as Figure 16As shown, multiple pivot arms 22 are spaced apart along the length of the air outlet 11. This improves the reliability of the rotation of the orifice plate 2. For example, in Figure 16 In the example shown, each perforated plate 2 has a pivot arm 22 at both ends along its length. The two pivot arms 22 at both ends along the length of the perforated plate 2 drive the plate body 21 to rotate, which can improve the consistency of the rotation of the plate body 21 along its length. Of course, pivot arms 22 can also be provided in the middle area of ​​the perforated plate 2, which is spaced apart from the two ends along its length.

[0082] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, for reference Figure 8 and Figure 9 The crossbeam 16 is provided with a first clearance groove 161, and a plurality of pivot arms 22 include a first pivot arm 221, which is movably disposed within the first clearance groove 161. Thus, by having at least a portion of the first pivot arm 221 located within and moving within the first clearance groove 161, the plate body 21 can be positioned downstream of the crossbeam 16 along the airflow direction, facilitating the implementation of a windless mode for the air conditioner 100. This also avoids interference between the first pivot arm 221 and the crossbeam 16 when they are positioned opposite each other, while fully utilizing the internal space of the crossbeam 16 without increasing wind resistance at the air outlet 11, resulting in a more compact structure.

[0083] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 10 As shown, one end of the first pivot arm 221, away from the plate body 21, extends through the air outlet duct 141, and this end is located upstream of the crossbeam 16 along the airflow direction. The first pivot arm 221 at the crossbeam 16 avoids interference with the crossbeam 16 by being at least partially located within the first clearance groove 161. Figure 15 As shown, the air outlet frame 14 is also provided with a shaft hole 162 for the first pivot arm 221 to rotate.

[0084] like Figure 4 As shown, within the first clearance groove 161, the first pivot arm 221 rotates about the rotation axis of the end of the first pivot arm 221 away from the plate body 21. It can be understood that, in order to facilitate the connection between the plate body 21 and the first pivot arm 221, the downstream side of the first clearance groove 161 has an opening for the first pivot arm 221 to pass through. When the plate body 21 closes the air outlet 11, the first pivot arm 221 abuts against the side wall of the opening away from the first cavity 12. Thus, the perforated plate 2 can be limited when it rotates from the position of opening the air outlet 11 to the position of closing the air outlet 11.

[0085] like Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, the opening extends from the side opposite to the first cavity 12 to the side opposite to the first cavity 12 of the air outlet 11. A stop portion 164 is provided on the side of the crossbeam 16 opposite to the first cavity 12 along the width direction of the air outlet 11. A limiting portion (the extension portion 2212 described below is formed as a limiting portion) is provided on the first pivot arm 221. When the perforated plate 2 closes the air outlet 11, the limiting portion and the stop portion 164 abut against each other on the side facing the first cavity 12. The stop portion 164 protrudes forward from the crossbeam 16.

[0086] In addition, the other side of the opening can be open or closed, without any restriction. When the other side of the opening is closed, the other side wall of the opening can limit the position of the perforated plate 2 when the air outlet 11 is open. For example, when the perforated plate 2 rotates from the position of the closed air outlet 11 to the position of the open air outlet 11, after the perforated plate 2 fully opens the air outlet 11 and the perforated plate 2 is located in the first cavity 12, the first pivot arm 221 abuts against the side wall of the other side of the opening.

[0087] Optionally, the perforated plate 2 can be limited by the side wall of the first cavity 12 away from the air outlet 11 when the air outlet 11 is open. When the air outlet 11 is open, the end of the perforated plate 2 away from the air outlet 11 can abut against the side wall of the first cavity 12 away from the air outlet 11.

[0088] In some embodiments of this utility model, multiple crossbeams 16 are spaced apart along the length of the air outlet 11, and multiple first pivot arms 221 correspond to the multiple crossbeams 16. For example, multiple first pivot arms 221 can correspond one-to-one with multiple crossbeams 16. Of course, this utility model is not limited to this; two first pivot arms 221 can be accommodated simultaneously in the first clearance groove 161 of one crossbeam 16. Figure 8 and Figure 9 In the example shown, there are two perforated plates 2 spaced apart along the length of the air outlet 11. The two perforated plates 2 are located on both sides of the crossbeam 16 along the length of the air outlet 11. The two perforated plates 2 are provided with a first pivot arm 221 at the end closest to each other, and the two first pivot arms 221 are simultaneously provided in the first clearance groove 161 of the crossbeam 16 at the connection of the two perforated plates 2.

[0089] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, the air conditioner 100 also includes a decorative panel 4. Along the airflow direction, the decorative panel 4 is located on the downstream side of the crossbeam 16 to cover the first clearance groove 161. This allows the first clearance groove 161 to be covered on the rear side of the decorative panel 4, preventing structures such as the first pivot arm 221 from being exposed on the outside of the air conditioner 100 and improving the appearance of the air conditioner 100.

[0090] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, one end of the decorative panel 4 along its length is inserted into the crossbeam 16 or the housing 1, and the other end is connected to the housing 1 or the crossbeam 16 via fasteners. This simplifies the connection between the decorative panel 4 and the crossbeam 16 or the housing 1, and improves the reliability of fixing the decorative panel 4.

[0091] For example, in Figure 14 In the example shown in 15, the decorative panel 4 extends into the first cavity 12. A buckle 41 is provided on the side of the decorative panel 4 facing away from the first cavity 12. An insertion hole 142 is provided on the inner wall of the air outlet 11. The buckle 41 is inserted into the insertion hole 142. A connection hole 42 is provided at the other end of the decorative panel 4. A mounting post 145 is provided on the air outlet frame 14. The mounting post 145 is provided with a threaded hole. The mounting post 145 and the end of the decorative panel 4 facing away from the buckle 41 are connected by fasteners such as screws.

[0092] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 8 , Figure 9 As shown, for reference Figure 18 The first pivot arm 221 includes a body portion 2211 and an extension portion 2212. At least a portion of the body portion 2211 is disposed within the first clearance groove 161. The body portion 2211 is perpendicular to the length direction of the air outlet 11. The extension portion 2212 is located outside the first clearance groove 161, with one end connected to the other end of the body portion 2211. The other end of the extension portion 2212 extends along the length direction of the air outlet 11 and connects to the panel body 21. This allows the panel body 21 to be offset from the first clearance groove 161 along the length direction of the air outlet 11, facilitating the movement of the panel body 21. In addition, the decorative panel 4, located outside the extension portion 2212, can cover the extension portion 2212 and the first clearance groove 161, ensuring the appearance of the air conditioner 100.

[0093] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, when the perforated plate 2 closes the air outlet 11, the outer surface of the decorative panel 4 is flush with the outer surface of the perforated plate 2. This improves the appearance of the air conditioner 100. Additionally, as... Figure 15 As shown, the inner side of the decorative panel 4 is provided with a reinforcing rib 43, which extends along the length of the decorative panel 4, and the pivot arm 22 is located on one side of the reinforcing rib 43 along the length of the air outlet 11.

[0094] In some embodiments of this utility model, the perforated plate 2 is one or multiple perforated plates spaced apart along the length of the air outlet 11. For example, in Figure 2 and Figure 4In the example shown, there are two perforated plates 2 spaced apart along the length of the air outlet 11, and one crossbeam 16. The two perforated plates 2 are respectively located on both sides of the crossbeam 16 along the length of the air outlet 11. The crossbeam 16 is provided with a first clearance groove 161. The two perforated plates 2 are provided with a first pivot arm 221 at the end closest to each other. Both first pivot arms 221 are rotatably located in the first clearance groove 161. The ends of the extensions 2212 of the two first pivot arms 221 extend away from the main body 2211 in the direction away from each other. The decorative plate 4 is located on the outside of the two extensions 2212. The reinforcing ribs 43 of the decorative plate 4 are located between the two main bodies 2211.

[0095] Additionally, multiple perforated plates 2 can be configured with different windless modes according to user needs. For example, in Figure 2 In the example shown, the perforated plate 2 is along the length of the air outlet 11 (e.g., Figure 2 The two perforated plates (shown in the vertical direction) are spaced apart. When both perforated plates 2 have their air outlets 11 closed, a completely windless mode can be achieved. When the upper perforated plate 2 has its air outlet 11 open and the lower perforated plate 2 has its air outlet 11 closed, a windless mode can be achieved. Figure 5 As shown, when the air outlet 11 is closed by the upper perforated plate 2 and the air outlet 11 is opened by the lower perforated plate 2, a windless mode can be achieved to meet different user needs.

[0096] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 12 and Figure 14 As shown, the housing 1 has a second clearance groove 146 and a third clearance groove 147, which are respectively located on both sides of the air outlet 11 along its length. Multiple pivot arms 22 include a second pivot arm 222 and a third pivot arm 223, which are respectively located at both ends of the air outlet 11 along its length. The second pivot arms 222 and the third pivot arms 223 are movably disposed within the second clearance groove 146 and the third clearance groove 147, respectively. The second pivot arms 222 and the third pivot arms 223 can support and fix the perforated plate 2 at both ends of the air outlet 11 along its length, ensuring the reliability of the perforated plate 2's rotation. Furthermore, the arrangement of the second clearance groove 146 and the third clearance groove 147 can prevent interference between the first pivot arm 221 and the second pivot arm 222 and the housing 1, ensuring the reliability of the perforated plate 2's rotation.

[0097] Furthermore, when there is only one orifice plate 2, the second pivot arm 222 and the third pivot arm 223 are respectively located at both ends of the orifice plate 2 along the length of the air outlet 11. When there are multiple orifice plates 2 spaced apart along the length of the air outlet 11, the second pivot arm 222 and the third pivot arm 223 are respectively located at the opposite ends of the two orifice plates 2 that are furthest apart. For example, in Figure 16In the example shown, there are two perforated plates 2 spaced apart along the length of the air outlet 11, and the second pivot arm 222 and the third pivot arm 223 are respectively located at the ends of the two perforated plates 2 that are away from each other.

[0098] In some other embodiments of this invention, the perforated plate 2 and the crossbeam 16 are arranged along the airflow direction. For example, along the airflow direction, the crossbeam 16 can be located upstream or downstream of the perforated plate 2. When the crossbeam 16 is located upstream of the perforated plate 2, it is located upstream of the perforated plate 2 (including the pivot arm 22) when the air outlet 11 of the perforated plate 2 is closed; when the crossbeam 16 is located downstream of the perforated plate 2, it is located downstream of the perforated plate 2 (including the pivot arm 22) when the air outlet 11 of the perforated plate 2 is closed.

[0099] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the crossbeam 16 has guide vanes 5 on both sides along the length of the air outlet 11. Multiple guide vanes 5 are spaced apart along the width of the air outlet 11. The guide vanes 5 are rotatably mounted at the air outlet 11, located upstream of the perforated plate 2 along the airflow direction. The crossbeam 16 has shaft holes 162 on both sides along the length of the air outlet 11 that mate with the guide vanes 5. This facilitates fixing the guide vanes 5 on both sides of the crossbeam 16 along the length of the air outlet 11. The rotation axis of the guide vanes 5 extends along the length of the air outlet 11, allowing the guide vanes 5 to guide airflow in the width direction of the air outlet 11, thus achieving air delivery at different angles.

[0100] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 14 As shown, the crossbeam 16 can also be provided with fixing ribs 17 on both sides along the length direction of the air outlet 11. The fixing ribs 17 extend along the width direction of the air outlet 11 and the two ends of the length direction are connected to the two ends of the air outlet 11 opposite to the width direction of the air outlet 11. The fixing ribs 17 and the two ends of the length direction of the air outlet 11 are spaced apart from the crossbeam 16. The air guide plate 5 is rotatably mounted on the fixing ribs 17, thereby improving the reliability of fixing the air guide plate 5.

[0101] exist Figure 14In the example shown, there is one crossbeam 16, spaced apart from both ends of the air outlet 11 along its length. A set of air guide plates 5 is provided on both sides of the crossbeam 16 along the length of the air outlet 11. Each set of air guide plates 5 includes multiple air guide plates 5 spaced apart along the width of the air outlet 11. Each air guide plate 5 extends along the length of the air outlet 11. The upper end of the air guide plate 5 located below the crossbeam 16 is rotatably connected to the crossbeam 16, and the lower end is rotatably connected to the lower side wall of the air outlet 11. A fixed rib 17 is provided on the lower side of the crossbeam 16, spaced apart from the crossbeam 16 and the lower side wall of the air outlet 11. The air guide plates 5 located on the lower side of the crossbeam 16 are rotatably mounted on the fixed rib 17. The lower ends of a set of air guide plates 5 above the crossbeam 16 are rotatably connected to the crossbeam 16. A fixed rib 17 is provided above the crossbeam 16, and the multiple air guide plates 5 located above the crossbeam 16 are rotatably connected to the fixed rib 17.

[0102] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 10 As shown, for reference Figure 3 The air conditioner 100 also includes a louver assembly, which comprises multiple louvers 61 and a connecting rod. The multiple louvers 61 are spaced apart along the length of the air outlet 11. The louvers 61 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the air outlet duct 141. The connecting rod is rotatably connected to the multiple louvers 61 and extends along the length of the air outlet 11. Along the airflow direction, the louver assembly is located upstream of the air guide plate 5, and the louvers 61 can guide airflow along the length of the air outlet 11. (Reference) Figure 3 As shown, the rotation axis of the first pivot arm 221 and the rotation axis of the louver 61 are located on both sides of the width direction of the air outlet duct 141.

[0103] Furthermore, the louvers 61 and the pivot arm 22 are spaced apart along the length of the air outlet 11, and the louvers 61 and the crossbeam 16 are spaced apart along the length of the air outlet 11, thereby avoiding interference between the louvers 61 and the crossbeam 16 or the pivot arm 22.

[0104] Optionally, multiple louver assemblies are spaced apart along the length of the air outlet 11, thereby enabling different controls for different areas and meeting user needs. For example, in Figure 10 In the example shown, a louver assembly is provided on both the upper and lower sides of the crossbeam 16, thereby controlling the louvers 61 of the two louver assemblies to direct airflow in different directions. For example, when the user does not want to be blown directly by the wind, the upper louver 61 can be directed upwards and the lower louver 61 downwards; or when the user needs a stronger airflow or needs a short period of cooling or heating, the upper louver 61 can be directed downwards and the lower louver 61 upwards.

[0105] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, the air conditioner 100 also includes an air guide drive mechanism 51, which is mounted on the crossbeam 16 and used to drive the air guide vanes 5 to rotate. This facilitates the placement of the air guide drive mechanism 51, making the internal structure of the air conditioner 100 more compact and rational. For example, multiple air guide vanes 5 can be connected by connecting rods to enable synchronous rotation of the multiple air guide vanes 5. The air guide drive mechanism 51 can drive one of the air guide vanes 5 to rotate, thereby driving multiple air guide vanes 5 to rotate synchronously.

[0106] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, a receiving cavity 163 is provided on the crossbeam 16, and the air guiding drive mechanism 51 is located within the receiving cavity 163. This protects the air guiding drive mechanism 51 while fully utilizing the internal space of the crossbeam 16 without increasing the air resistance at the air outlet 11, resulting in a more compact structure. Figure 12 and Figure 13 In the example shown, the crossbeam 16 includes a main body 165 and a cover 166. The cover 166 is disposed on the main body 165 and connected to the main body 165 and together defines a receiving cavity 163. The air guide drive mechanism 51 is disposed in the receiving cavity 163 and connected to the main body 165.

[0107] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the air conditioner also includes a fan 9, which is disposed within the housing 1 and drives airflow from the air inlet 19 to the air outlet 11. Along the airflow direction, the fan 9 is located upstream of the crossbeam 16. The crossbeam 16 has a first clearance groove 161, at least a portion of the pivot arm 22 is rotatably disposed within the first clearance groove 161, and the plate body 21 is located outside the first clearance groove 161. Thus, by having at least a portion of the first pivot arm 221 located within and moving within the first clearance groove 161, the plate body 21 can be positioned downstream of the crossbeam 16 along the airflow direction, facilitating the implementation of a windless mode for the air conditioner 100. This also avoids interference between the first pivot arm 221 and the crossbeam 16 when they are positioned opposite each other, while fully utilizing the internal space of the crossbeam 16 without increasing wind resistance at the air outlet 11, resulting in a more compact structure.

[0108] Furthermore, such as Figure 10 As shown, the side of the first clearance groove 161 closest to the fan 9 is closed, and the side of the first clearance groove 161 furthest from the fan 9 has an opening that communicates with the first clearance groove 161. This prevents the airflow blown out by the fan 9 from entering the first clearance groove 161, thereby preventing air leakage and affecting the air output of the air conditioner 100, and ensuring the cooling and heating effects of the air conditioner 100.

[0109] In some embodiments of this invention, along the airflow direction, the thickness of the crossbeam 16 near the fan 9 gradually increases along the length of the outlet 11. It is understood that a smaller thickness at the end of the crossbeam 16 near the fan 9 along the length of the outlet 11 reduces the obstruction of airflow at that end, allowing the crossbeam 16 near the fan 9 to better guide airflow out of the outlet 11 and reduce wind resistance.

[0110] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first clearance groove 161 is connected to the first cavity 12, and at least a portion of the pivot arm 22 can extend into the first cavity 12. This allows the pivot arm 22 to drive the plate body 21 into the first cavity 12, so that when the perforated plate 2 opens the air outlet 11, it will not block the air outlet 11, ensuring the smooth flow of air from the air outlet 11.

[0111] In some embodiments of this utility model, a blocking portion is formed in the first clearance groove 161 or in the formation of the crossbeam 16. The blocking portion is used to limit the rotation angle of the pivot arm 22. When the perforated plate 2 switches from the state of opening the air outlet 11 to closing the air outlet 11, the blocking portion can limit the pivot arm. The blocking portion can include a first blocking portion and a second blocking portion. When the perforated plate 2 switches from the state of opening the air outlet 11 to closing the air outlet 11, the first blocking portion can limit the perforated plate 2. The first blocking portion can be the stop portion 164 mentioned above. When the perforated plate 2 closes the air outlet 11, the end of the perforated plate 2 away from the first cavity 12 abuts against the first blocking portion. When the perforated plate 2 switches from the closed air outlet 11 to the open air outlet 11 state, the second blocking part can limit the perforated plate 2. The second blocking part can be the side wall of the first cavity 12 away from the air outlet 11. When the perforated plate 2 opens the air outlet 11, the end of the perforated plate 2 away from the air outlet 11 stops against the second blocking part.

[0112] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, when both the switch door 3 and the perforated plate 2 open the air outlet 11, the switch door 3 is located in the first cavity 12 and on the side of the perforated plate 2 away from the center of the housing 1. The switch door 3 and the perforated plate 2 are both located in the first cavity 12. This not only allows the switch door 3 to be located inside the housing 1, ensuring the appearance of the air conditioner 100, but also allows the switch door 3 and the perforated plate 2 to share a first cavity 12, simplifying the structure and processing technology of the housing 1.

[0113] Of course, this utility model is not limited to this. A second cavity is also provided inside the housing 1. The second cavity is located on the side of the air outlet 11 away from the first cavity 12 in the width direction and is connected to the air outlet 11. When the door 3 opens the air outlet 11, the door 3 is located inside the second cavity. The first cavity 12 and the second cavity can be symmetrically arranged. This ensures that the structural strength on both sides of the air outlet 11 in the width direction is approximately the same, guaranteeing the reliability of the air conditioner 100.

[0114] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the air conditioner 100 also includes a door drive mechanism 31, which is mounted on the housing 1 and used to drive the opening and closing of the door 3. This automates the opening and closing of the door 3, improving the user experience.

[0115] Furthermore, such as Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, a door drive mechanism 31 is provided on at least one side of the air outlet 11 along its length. It can be understood that the door drive mechanism 31 is located on the housing 1 on one side of the air outlet 11 along its length, which facilitates the door drive mechanism 31 in driving the door 3 to move, and at the same time makes the structural arrangement inside the housing 1 more reasonable and compact.

[0116] For example, in Figure 1 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 In the example shown, there is one switch door 3. Door drive mechanisms 31 are provided on both sides of the air outlet 11 along its length. The door drive mechanisms 31 are located on the housing 1 and can drive the switch door 3 to move simultaneously from both ends along its length, ensuring the smoothness of the switch door 3's movement and the consistency of its movement along its length, thus facilitating the opening and closing of the air outlet 11.

[0117] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 10 As shown, the air conditioner 100 also includes a plate drive mechanism 23, which is mounted on the housing 1 and is used to drive the perforated plate 2 to move. This automates the opening and closing of the perforated plate 2, improving the user experience.

[0118] Furthermore, such as Figure 10 As shown, a plate drive mechanism 23 is provided on at least one side of the air outlet 11 along its length. It can be understood that the plate drive mechanism 23 is located on the housing 1 on one side of the air outlet 11 along its length, which facilitates the plate drive mechanism 23 to drive the perforated plate 2 to move, and at the same time makes the structural arrangement inside the housing 1 more reasonable and compact.

[0119] For example, in Figure 10 and Figure 11In the example shown, there are two perforated plates 2 arranged in the vertical direction, and two plate driving mechanisms 23 respectively located on the housing 1 on both sides of the air outlet 11 in the length direction. The upper plate driving mechanism 23 is used to drive the upper perforated plate 2 to move, and the lower plate driving mechanism 23 is used to drive the lower perforated plate 2 to move.

[0120] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 10 As shown, the air conditioner 100 also includes a louver drive mechanism 62, which is disposed on the housing 1 and located on both sides of the air outlet 11 along its length. For example, in Figure 10 In the example shown, there are two louver assemblies, which are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the crossbeam 16. One louver drive mechanism 62 is located above the air outlet 11 and is used to drive the connecting rod of the upper louver assembly to move along the length direction of the air outlet 11. The other louver drive mechanism 62 is located below the air outlet 11 and is used to drive the connecting rod of the lower louver assembly to move along the length direction of the air outlet 11.

[0121] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the air outlet 11 extends vertically and includes a first air outlet area 111 and a second air outlet area 112. The first air outlet area 111 is located above the second air outlet area 112. The first air outlet area 111 has a jetting plate 1111, which is connected to the housing 1 at both ends along the width direction of the air outlet 11 to guide the airflow of the first air outlet area 111 upward. This guides the airflow above the air outlet 11 upward, preventing the airflow above the air outlet 11 from blowing directly towards the user, thus further achieving a windless mode.

[0122] The air jetting plate 1111 can be fixed on the housing 1. Along the airflow direction, the air jetting plate 1111 is inclined upward. The air jetting plate 1111 can also be rotatably mounted on the housing 1.

[0123] Furthermore, the ventilation opening 211 is positioned opposite to the second air outlet zone 112, and a grille 212 is provided on the perforated plate 2 at a position opposite to the first air outlet zone 111. Thus, when the air conditioner 100 is in the windless mode, the airflow in the second air outlet zone 112 can flow out through the ventilation opening 211 on the perforated plate 2, achieving a windless feel. The airflow in the first air outlet zone 111 can be guided upwards by the air throw plate 1111, preventing the airflow in the first air outlet zone 111 from blowing directly on the user, thus achieving the windless mode. In addition, the grille 212 facilitates the airflow from the first air outlet zone 111 being blown out through the grille 212, thereby increasing the airflow in the windless mode.

[0124] In addition, if Figure 12As shown, a dividing rib 18 is provided between the first air outlet zone 111 and the second air outlet zone 112, and the upper end of the air guide plate 5 located on the upper side of the crossbeam 16 can be rotatably connected to the dividing rib 18.

[0125] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 8 , Figure 11 and Figure 17 As shown, the air conditioner 100 also includes a display box, which is located on one side of the air outlet 11 along its length. The display box is disposed inside the housing 1 and outside the switch door 3. The switch door 3 and the perforated plate 2 have a stepped structure 24 recessed towards the interior of the housing 1 corresponding to the position of the display box. This allows the display box to be avoided, facilitating its placement inside the housing 1. For example, in Figure 8 , Figure 11 and Figure 17 In the example shown, the display box is located on the upper side of the air outlet 11, and the upper ends of the switch door 3 and the perforated plate 2 have a stepped structure 24 to avoid the display box.

[0126] The air conditioner 100 according to the present utility model has the characteristics of low cost, simple and compact structure, good reliability, large air outlet area without wind sensation, large air volume, and good uniformity.

[0127] Other components and operations of the air conditioner 100 according to the embodiments of the present invention are known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.
