Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air handling equipment technology, and in particular to an air outlet structure and an air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] To ensure cooling or heating efficiency, existing air conditioners alter the airflow direction to match the operating conditions, thus achieving optimal cooling or heating efficiency. However, when the airflow is biased in one direction, negative pressure is created in the opposite direction, causing external air to flow in and mix with the air in the duct. This reduces the air conditioner's efficiency and also leads to uneven air temperature along the length of the air outlet, resulting in a poor user experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes an air outlet structure that prevents the gas coming from the air inlet from mixing with the external gas, thereby improving the working efficiency of the air conditioner. At the same time, it also ensures the uniformity of the air outlet temperature along the length of the air outlet, thus enhancing the user experience.

[0004] This utility model also proposes an air conditioner, including the above-mentioned air outlet structure.

[0005] The air outlet structure according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: an air outlet frame assembly, the air outlet frame assembly having an air outlet duct and an air outlet and an air inlet communicating with the air outlet duct, the air outlet and the air inlet both extending along the length direction of the air outlet frame assembly; an air guide grille, the air guide grille being disposed at the air outlet and extending along the length direction of the air outlet, the two ends of the air guide grille along the length direction of the air outlet being a first end and a second end, respectively, the air guide grille having a grille area, along the length direction of the air outlet, the end of the grille area near the first end being disposed closer to the first end than the end of the air inlet near the first end; and a first baffle, the first baffle being disposed on the side of the air guide grille in the thickness direction facing the air outlet duct, and disposed opposite to the end of the air inlet near the first end.

[0006] According to the air outlet structure of this utility model embodiment, by setting the air guide grille at the air outlet and extending along the length direction of the air outlet, the air guide grille has a grille area. Along the length direction of the air outlet, the end of the grille area near the first end is set closer to the first end than the end of the air inlet near the first end. The first baffle is set on the side of the air guide grille facing the air outlet duct in the thickness direction and is opposite to the end of the air inlet near the first end. This can prevent external gas from flowing from the area of ​​the grille area near the first end to the air outlet duct opposite to the air inlet when negative pressure is generated in the area between the end of the grille area near the first end and the end of the air inlet near the first end. This avoids the mixing of gas from the air inlet with external gas, thereby improving the working efficiency of the air conditioner and ensuring the uniformity of the air outlet temperature along the length direction of the air outlet, thus improving the user experience.

[0007] In some embodiments of this invention, the first baffle extends obliquely toward the second end along the direction of airflow.

[0008] In some embodiments of this utility model, along the length direction of the air outlet, the windward end of the first baffle is positioned closer to the first end relative to the end of the air inlet that is closer to the first end; or, along the length direction of the air outlet, the windward end of the first baffle is flush with the end of the air inlet that is closer to the first end.

[0009] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first end is the upper end and the second end is the lower end.

[0010] In some embodiments of this utility model, the air outlet structure further includes a second baffle, which is disposed at the edge of the air inlet near the first end and extends toward the air outlet.

[0011] In some embodiments of this invention, the first baffle and the second baffle are spaced apart in the direction of airflow.

[0012] In some embodiments of this utility model, the air outlet structure further includes: a louver assembly, the louver assembly being disposed within the air outlet duct, the louver assembly including a connecting rod and a plurality of louvers, the connecting rod extending along the length direction of the air outlet and being disposed on the same side of the first baffle and the second baffle along the width direction of the air guide grille, the plurality of louvers being spaced apart along the length direction of the air outlet and all being rotatably connected to the connecting rod.

[0013] In some embodiments of this utility model, the side of the first baffle facing the connecting rod along the width direction of the air guide grille is spaced apart from the connecting rod; and / or, the side of the second baffle facing the connecting rod along the width direction of the air guide grille is spaced apart from the connecting rod.

[0014] In some embodiments of the present invention, the first baffle and the louver closest to the first end are spaced apart in the length direction of the air outlet; and / or, the second baffle and the louver closest to the first end are spaced apart in the length direction of the air outlet.

[0015] In some embodiments of this utility model, the length of the grille area is greater than the length of the air inlet along the length direction of the air outlet.

[0016] In some embodiments of this utility model, along the length direction of the air outlet, one end of the grille area near the second end is flush with the other end of the air inlet near the second end.

[0017] In some embodiments of this utility model, the air outlet ducts are multiple ducts spaced apart along the width direction of the air outlet frame assembly, and the air outlet, the air inlet, and the air guide grille are all one-to-one correspondences with the multiple air outlet ducts.

[0018] The air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the air outlet structure described above.

[0019] According to the embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner, by setting the above-mentioned air outlet structure, has an air guide grille located at the air outlet and extending along the length of the air outlet. The air guide grille has a grille area. Along the length of the air outlet, the end of the grille area near the first end is positioned closer to the first end than the end of the air inlet near the first end. A first baffle is positioned on the side of the air guide grille facing the air outlet duct in the thickness direction and is positioned opposite to the end of the air inlet near the first end. This can prevent external gas from flowing from the area near the first end of the grille area into the air outlet duct opposite to the air inlet when negative pressure is generated in the area between the end of the grille area near the first end and the end of the air inlet near the first end. This avoids the mixing of gas from the air inlet with external gas, thereby improving the working efficiency of the air conditioner. It also ensures the uniformity of the air outlet temperature along the length of the air outlet, improving the user experience.

Furthermore, features defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0036] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0037] The following is for reference. Figures 1-6 The air outlet structure 1001 according to an embodiment of the present utility model is described.

[0038] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the air outlet structure 1001 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: an air outlet frame assembly 100, an air guide grille 200, and a first baffle 471.

[0039] Specifically, refer to Figures 1-6 The air outlet frame assembly 100 has an air outlet duct 201 and an air outlet 202 and an air inlet 2019 connected to the air outlet duct 201. Both the air outlet 202 and the air inlet 2019 extend along the length direction of the air outlet frame assembly 100. The air guide grille 200 is located at the air outlet 202 and extends along the length direction of the air outlet 202. The two ends of the air guide grille 200 along the length direction of the air outlet 202 are a first end 411 and a second end 412, respectively. The air guide grille 200 has a grille area 417. Along the length direction of the air outlet 202, the end of the grille area 417 closer to the first end 411 is closer to the first end 411 than the end of the air inlet 2019 closer to the first end 411.

[0040] It should be noted that the airflow can enter the air outlet duct 201 from the air inlet 2019 and then flow to the air outlet 202, thereby realizing the air outlet of the air conditioner. The air guide grille 200 includes a grille body 41 and a grille area 417 disposed on the grille body 41. The grille area 417 is used for air outlet. The grille body 41 includes: air guide vertical ribs 415 and reinforcing horizontal ribs 416. The air guide vertical ribs 415 and reinforcing horizontal ribs 416 are disposed on the grille area 417. The air guide vertical ribs 415 are multiple ribs spaced apart along the width direction of the grille body 41. The air guide vertical ribs 415 extend along the length direction of the air outlet 202 (e.g., the up and down direction in this utility model). The reinforcing horizontal ribs 416 are multiple ribs spaced apart along the length direction of the air outlet 202. The reinforcing horizontal ribs 416 extend along the width direction of the grille body 41. The reinforcing horizontal ribs 416 are connected to the air guide vertical ribs 415. Thus, the air guide grille 200 of this utility model is formed. The reinforcing horizontal ribs 416 are multiple ones that are spaced apart along the length of the air outlet 202. The reinforcing horizontal ribs 416 extend along the width of the grille body 41. On the one hand, this ensures the structural strength of the grille body 41. On the other hand, it allows an air outlet area to be formed between the reinforcing horizontal ribs 416 and the air guide vertical ribs 415, thereby facilitating air outlet.

[0041] Due to the strength guarantee of the air outlet frame assembly 100, along the length direction of the air outlet 202, the end of the air inlet 2019 near the first end 411 is spaced apart from the end of the air outlet frame assembly 100 near the first end 411. That is, along the length direction of the air outlet 202, the air outlet frame assembly 100 is not entirely formed as the air inlet 2019, thus ensuring the structural strength of the air outlet frame assembly 100. Along the length direction of the air outlet 202, the end of the grille area 417 near the first end 411 is positioned closer to the first end 411 than the end of the air inlet 2019 near the first end 411, thereby increasing the air outlet area of ​​the air conditioner near the first end 411, improving the air outlet efficiency, and improving the working efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0042] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, the first baffle 471 is located on the side of the air guide grille 200 facing the air outlet duct 201 in the thickness direction, and is positioned opposite to the end of the air inlet 2019 near the first end 411.

[0043] It is understandable that when the airflow flows obliquely towards the second end 412 along the direction from the air inlet 2019 to the air outlet 202, a negative pressure will be generated in the area between the end of the grille area 417 near the first end 411 and the end of the air inlet 2019 near the first end 411. This causes external gas to flow into the air outlet duct 201 from the area of ​​the grille area 417 near the first end 411, resulting in the gas from the air inlet 2019 mixing with the external gas, thereby reducing the working efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0044] However, by setting the first baffle 471 on the side of the air guide grille 200 facing the air outlet duct 201 in the thickness direction, and opposite to the end of the air inlet 2019 near the first end 411, it can prevent negative pressure from being generated in the area between the end of the grille area 417 near the first end 411 and the end of the air inlet 2019 near the first end 411. This prevents external gas from flowing from the area of ​​the grille area 417 near the first end 411 into the air outlet duct 201 opposite to the air inlet 2019, thereby avoiding the mixing of gas from the air inlet 2019 with external gas, thus improving the working efficiency of the air conditioner. At the same time, it also ensures the uniformity of the air outlet temperature in the length direction of the air outlet 202, improving the user experience.

[0045] Among them, the air outlet duct 201, which is opposite to the air inlet 2019, refers to the area of ​​the air outlet duct 201 within the length range of the air inlet 2019.

[0046] Furthermore, if Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first baffle 471 is located on the side of the reinforcing rib 416 adjacent to the reinforcing rib 416 closest to the first end 411 and facing the air outlet duct 201 and connected thereto. This can improve the reliability and stability of the connection between the first baffle 471 and the air guide grille 200.

[0047] For example, in this utility model, the first end 411 is the upper end and the second end 412 is the lower end. When the air conditioner is heating, the downward flow of air can improve the heating efficiency. At this time, the airflow will flow downwards along the direction from the air inlet 2019 to the air outlet 202. At this time, a negative pressure will be generated in the area between the upper end of the grille area 417 and the upper end of the air inlet 2019, which will cause the external gas to flow into the air outlet duct 201 from the upper part of the grille area 417. Since the first baffle 471 is located on the side of the air guide grille 200 facing the air outlet duct 201 in the thickness direction and is opposite to the upper end of the air inlet 2019, it can block the external airflow from flowing into the air outlet duct 201 opposite to the air inlet 2019, thereby preventing the gas from the air inlet 2019 from mixing with the external gas and reducing the outlet temperature, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0048] According to the air outlet structure 1001 of this utility model embodiment, by placing the air guide grille 200 at the air outlet 202 and extending it along the length direction of the air outlet 202, the air guide grille 200 has a grille area 417. Along the length direction of the air outlet 202, the end of the grille area 417 near the first end 411 is positioned closer to the first end 411 than the end of the air inlet 2019 near the first end 411. A first baffle 471 is placed on the side of the air guide grille 200 facing the air outlet duct 201 in the thickness direction, and is positioned near the first end 411 of the air inlet 2019. The two ends are positioned opposite each other, which can prevent negative pressure from being generated in the area between the end of the grille area 417 near the first end 411 and the end of the air inlet 2019 near the first end 411. This prevents external gas from flowing from the area of ​​the grille area 417 near the first end 411 into the air outlet duct 201 opposite to the air inlet 2019, thereby avoiding the mixing of gas from the air inlet 2019 with external gas, thus improving the working efficiency of the air conditioner. At the same time, it also ensures the uniformity of the air outlet temperature along the length of the air outlet 202, improving the user experience.

[0049] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, along the direction of airflow, the first baffle 471 extends obliquely toward the second end 412. This further prevents negative pressure from being generated in the area between the first end 411 of the grille area 417 and the first end 411 of the air inlet 2019, thus preventing external gas from flowing from the area near the first end 411 of the grille area 417 into the air outlet duct 201 opposite to the air inlet 2019. This avoids mixing of the gas from the air inlet 2019 with the external gas, thereby improving the air conditioner's operating efficiency and ensuring the uniformity of the air outlet temperature along the length of the air outlet 202, enhancing the user experience.

[0050] Meanwhile, when the gas needs to flow at an angle towards the first end 411, the first baffle 471 extends at an angle towards the second end 412 along the direction of airflow, which can also avoid blocking the flow of gas and improve the air outlet efficiency.

[0051] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, along the length of the air outlet 202, the windward end of the first baffle 471 is positioned closer to the first end 411 than the end of the air inlet 2019 that is closer to the first end 411, or, along the length of the air outlet 202, the windward end of the first baffle 471 is flush with the end of the air inlet 2019 that is closer to the first end 411.

[0052] It is understandable that if the windward end of the first baffle 471 is positioned closer to the second end 412 than the end of the air inlet 2019 that is closer to the first end 411, along the length of the air outlet 202, the airflow from the air inlet 2019 near the first end 411 will still mix with the external airflow from the grille area 417 near the first end 411, thereby reducing the working efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0053] Therefore, by setting it in the above manner, it is possible to further prevent negative pressure from being generated in the area between the end of the grille area 417 near the first end 411 and the end of the air inlet 2019 near the first end 411. This prevents external gas from flowing from the area of ​​the grille area 417 near the first end 411 into the air outlet duct 201 opposite to the air inlet 2019, thereby avoiding the mixing of gas from the air inlet 2019 with external gas, thus improving the working efficiency of the air conditioner. At the same time, it also ensures the uniformity of the air outlet temperature along the length of the air outlet 202, improving the user experience.

[0054] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first end 411 is the upper end, and the second end 412 is the lower end. It can be understood that the air outlet 202 extends in the vertical direction, and the air conditioner is a cabinet unit. Cabinet units have a large air outlet area and high cooling and heating efficiency. When the air conditioner is heating, the heating efficiency can be improved by guiding the airflow downward. At this time, the airflow will flow downward at an angle from the air inlet 2019 to the air outlet 202. At this time, a negative pressure will be generated in the area between the upper end of the grille area 417 and the upper end of the air inlet 2019, which will cause the external air to flow into the air outlet duct 201 from the upper part of the grille area 417. Since the first baffle 471 is located on the side of the air guide grille 200 facing the air outlet duct 201 in the thickness direction and is opposite to the upper end of the air inlet 2019, it can block the external airflow from flowing into the air outlet duct 201 opposite to the air inlet 2019, thereby preventing the air from the air inlet 2019 from mixing with the external air and reducing the outlet temperature, thus improving the heating efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figures 1-4As shown, the air outlet structure 1001 also includes a second baffle 472, which is located at the edge of the air inlet 2019 near the first end 411 and extends towards the air outlet 202. Thus, through the mutual blocking assembly of the first baffle 471 and the second baffle 472, negative pressure can be further prevented from flowing from the area near the first end 411 of the grille area 417 into the air outlet duct 201 opposite to the air inlet 2019 when negative pressure is generated. This avoids the mixing of air from the air inlet 2019 with external air, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the air conditioner and ensuring the uniformity of the air outlet temperature along the length of the air outlet 202, thus enhancing the user experience.

[0056] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figures 1-4 As shown, the first baffle 471 and the second baffle 472 are spaced apart in the direction of airflow. It can be understood that when the airflow from the air inlet 2019 flows obliquely towards the first end 411 or diffuses into the first end 411 within the air outlet duct 201, the first baffle 471 and the second baffle 472 are spaced apart in the direction of airflow, thereby avoiding obstruction of the airflow from the air inlet 2019 by the first baffle 471 and the second baffle 472, increasing the air outlet range, and making the air outlet smooth.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figures 1-4 As shown, the air outlet structure 1001 also includes a louver assembly 10, which is disposed in the air outlet duct 201. The louver assembly 10 includes a connecting rod 1 and a plurality of louvers 2. The connecting rod 1 extends along the length direction of the air outlet 202 and is disposed on the same side of the first baffle 471 and the second baffle 472 along the width direction of the air guide grille 200. The plurality of louvers 2 are spaced apart along the length direction of the air outlet 202 and are all rotatably connected to the connecting rod 1.

[0058] It is understandable that the connecting rod 1 is movable along the length of the air outlet 202, thereby driving multiple louvers 2 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the multiple louvers 2 thereby changes the flow direction of the airflow within the air outlet duct 201. The connecting rod 1 is located on the same side of the first baffle 471 and the second baffle 472 along the width direction of the air guide grille 200, which facilitates the assembly of the connecting rod 1.

[0059] In some embodiments of this utility model, the side of the first baffle 471 facing the connecting rod 1 along the width direction of the air guide grille 200 is spaced apart from the connecting rod 1; thereby, interference with the movement and installation of the connecting rod 1 can be avoided, making the movement and installation of the connecting rod 1 smooth.

[0060] In some embodiments of this invention, the second baffle 472 is spaced apart from the connecting rod 1 on the side facing the connecting rod 1 along the width direction of the air guide grille 200. This avoids interfering with the movement and installation of the connecting rod 1, ensuring smooth movement and installation of the connecting rod 1.

[0061] In some embodiments of this utility model, the first baffle 471 and the louver 2 closest to the first end 411 are spaced apart along the length of the air outlet 202; thereby, interference with the movement and installation of the louver 2 can be avoided, and the movement and installation of the connecting rod 1 can be made smooth.

[0062] In some embodiments of this invention, the second baffle 472 and the louver 2 closest to the first end 411 are spaced apart along the length of the air outlet 202. This avoids interfering with the movement and installation of the louver 2, ensuring smooth movement and installation of the connecting rod 1.

[0063] In some embodiments of this utility model, the length of the grille area 417 along the length direction of the air outlet 202 is greater than the length of the air inlet 2019. Due to the strength requirements of the air outlet frame assembly 100, not all of the air outlet frame assembly 100 is formed as the air inlet 2019 along the length direction of the air outlet 202, thus ensuring the structural strength of the air outlet frame assembly 100. Furthermore, the greater length of the grille area 417 along the length direction of the air outlet 202 allows gas from the air inlet 2019 to diffuse into the air outlet duct 201 and flow out from the larger grille area 417, thereby increasing the air outlet area of ​​the air conditioner, improving the air outlet efficiency, and enhancing the overall operating efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0064] In some embodiments of this utility model, the end of the grille area 417 near the second end 412 is flush with the end of the air inlet 2019 near the second end 412. This prevents negative pressure from forming in the area between the end of the grille area 417 near the second end 412 and the end of the air inlet 2019 near the second end 412, thus preventing the gas from the air inlet 2019 from mixing with external gas, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the air conditioner. It also ensures the uniformity of the air outlet temperature along the length of the air outlet 202, enhancing the user experience.

[0065] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, multiple air outlet ducts 201 are spaced apart along the width of the air outlet frame assembly 100. Air outlets 202, air inlets 2019, and air guide grilles 200 are each corresponding to multiple air outlet ducts 201. This improves the air outlet efficiency of the air conditioner, thereby increasing its overall operating efficiency.

[0066] For example in Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the example shown, there are two air outlet ducts 201, two air outlets 202, two air inlets 2019, and two air guide grilles 200. However, this utility model is not limited to this. There can be more air outlet ducts 201, air outlets 202, air inlets 2019, and air guide grilles 200, such as 3, 4, 5, or 6.

[0067] The following describes an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0068] The air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the air outlet structure 1001 described above.

[0069] According to the air conditioner of this utility model embodiment, by setting the above-mentioned air outlet structure 1001, the air guide grille 200 is disposed at the air outlet 202 and extends along the length direction of the air outlet 202. The air guide grille 200 has a grille area 417. Along the length direction of the air outlet 202, the end of the grille area 417 near the first end 411 is disposed closer to the first end 411 than the end of the air inlet 2019 near the first end 411. The first baffle 471 is disposed on the side of the air guide grille 200 facing the air outlet duct 201 in the thickness direction, and is disposed near the first end 411 of the air inlet 2019. When one end of the grille area 417 is positioned opposite to the other end of the first end 411, it can prevent negative pressure from being generated in the area between the end of the grille area 417 near the first end 411 and the end of the air inlet 2019 near the first end 411. This prevents external gas from flowing from the area of ​​the grille area 417 near the first end 411 into the air outlet duct 201 opposite to the air inlet 2019, thereby avoiding the mixing of gas from the air inlet 2019 with external gas. This improves the working efficiency of the air conditioner and also ensures the uniformity of the air outlet temperature along the length of the air outlet 202, enhancing the user experience.
