[0049] With the development of science and technology, air conditioners are more and more applied, and the types of air conditioners are more and more, such as hanging machine, cabinet machine, duct machine, ceiling machine and the like. In order to realize different direction air outlet, most of them are provided with air guiding structure at air outlet, especially in summer, the air conditioner is in high temperature environment for a long time, and the cold air is blown out of the air outlet. In the case of high humidity, the air guiding structure of the air outlet and the installation place of the air guiding structure are prone to condensation. The panel assembly and air conditioner provided by the embodiment of the application can improve the above problems, and the panel assembly and air conditioner provided by the embodiment of the application can reduce the risk of condensation of the air guiding piece and improve the user experience.

[0050] The application will be described below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments:

[0051] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 respectively show the structure schematic diagram of different view angle of panel assembly 100, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the panel assembly 100 provided by the embodiment of the present application can be applied to the air conditioner 10, which can be a ceiling type air conditioner, a ducted air conditioner and a wall-mounted air conditioner. For the purpose of description, the ceiling type air conditioner is taken as an example for illustration. That is to say, the air conditioner 10 mentioned in the following description can be considered as a ceiling type air conditioner, and the same can be applied to the case where the air conditioner 10 is a ducted air conditioner or a wall-mounted air conditioner. The panel assembly 100 provided by the embodiment of the present application can reduce the risk of condensation of the air guide 120 and improve the user experience.

[0052] In the embodiment of the present application, the panel assembly 100 comprises a face frame 110 and an air guide 120. The face frame 110 has an air outlet 112. The air guide 120 is installed on the air outlet 112. The air guide 120 comprises a driving part 121, a connecting part 123 and an air guide blade 124. The driving part 121 is in transmission connection with the connecting part 123. The air guide blade 124 is connected with the connecting part 123. The face frame 110 is provided with a clamping part 113. The air guide blade 124 is in rotational connection with the clamping part 113. The outer surface of the clamping part 113 is at least partially provided in a curved surface along the air outlet direction of the air outlet 112.

[0053] The face frame 110 is the main body 11 structure of the entire panel assembly 100. It can provide a basis for the installation of the air guide 120 and other structures, so that the air guide 120 and the face frame 110 can become an integral whole, which can facilitate the assembly of the entire panel assembly 100 and the transportation of the entire panel assembly 100.

[0054] The air guide 120 is installed on the air outlet 112. During the operation of the air conditioner 10, the air blown out of the air outlet 112 can flow along the extension direction of the air guide blade 124. The driving part 121 can drive the air guide blade 124 to swing through the connecting part 123, so as to adjust the air outlet direction of the air outlet 112. The air blown out of the air outlet 112 can be blown to different directions, so that as many positions as possible in the room can be blown to, and the user experience can be improved.

[0055] In some embodiments, the panel assembly 100 further comprises an air inlet grille 170. The face frame 110 further has an air inlet 115. The air inlet grille 170 is arranged on the air inlet 115. The air inlet 115 and the air outlet 112 are arranged in a width direction of the face frame 110. The air outlet 112 and the air inlet 115 are arranged one by one, so that the entire panel assembly 100 is provided with one air outlet.

[0056] Figure 4 A partial enlarged view of A in the figure is shown, Figure 1 A partial enlarged view of A in the figure is shown, Figure 5 A partial enlarged view of H in the figure is shown. Figure 3 A partial enlarged view of H in the figure is shown. Figure 4 A partial enlarged view of H in the figure is shown. Figure 5As shown, Figure 5 The outer surface of the clamping portion 113 is at least partially curved, which means that the outer surface of the clamping portion 113 can be partially curved and partially shaped in other ways, or the outer surface of the clamping portion 113 can be entirely curved. The curved clamping portion 113 has an outer surface that is substantially streamlined, that is, along the air outlet direction of the air outlet 112, the outer surface of the clamping portion 113 is streamlined.

[0057] Due to the swinging of the guide vane 124 relative to the face frame 110, the face frame 110 has a clamping portion 113 connected with the guide vane 124, and due to the guide function of the guide vane 124, part of the wind will also pass through the clamping portion 113. Similarly, since the clamping portion 113 is arranged at the air outlet 112, there is also a risk of condensation. The curved outer surface of the clamping portion 113 has a streamlined outer surface, so that when the wind passes through the clamping portion 113, the wind can quickly pass through the clamping portion 113, reducing the time spent in the clamping portion 113, thereby reducing the risk of condensation in the clamping portion 113. Since the guide vane 124 is rotatably connected with the clamping portion 113, the risk of condensation in the guide vane 124 is also reduced, improving the user experience.

[0058] In addition, the curved outer surface of the clamping portion 113 changes the width of the clamping portion 113 along the air outlet direction of the air outlet 112, which can also increase the strength of the clamping portion 113, thereby enhancing the connection effect of the clamping portion 113 and the guide vane 124, and reducing the risk of disconnection between the guide vane 124 and the clamping portion 113.

[0059] The face frame 110 is substantially rectangular, and the face frame 110 has a length direction and a width direction. For ease of description, the direction in which the longest side of the face frame 110 is defined as the length direction, and the direction in which the side adjacent to the long side is defined as the width direction. The length direction and the width direction are substantially perpendicular.

[0060] The air outlet 112 can be in the shape of a long strip, and the air outlet 112 can extend along the length direction of the face frame 110. The guide vane 124 crosses the air outlet 112, that is, a single guide vane 124 is arranged along the width direction of the face frame 110.

[0061] Figure 6 As shown in Figure 2 The local enlarged view at B in FIG. 10 is shown in FIG. 11. Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments, the clamping portion 113 includes a clamping shaft 113a, a first stop portion 113b and a second stop portion 113c, the first stop portion 113b and the second stop portion 113c are respectively connected to two ends of the clamping shaft 113a, the guide vane 124 is clamped with the clamping shaft 113a, and the outer surface of the first stop portion 113b and / or the second stop portion 113c is at least partially curved.

[0062] The first stop portion 113b and the second stop portion 113c are respectively arranged at two ends of the clamping shaft 113a, and the guide vane 124 is clamped with the clamping shaft 113a, so that the first stop portion 113b and the second stop portion 113c can limit the guide vane 124 from both sides (along the width direction of the frame 110) of the guide vane 124, reduce the risk of the guide vane 124 being separated from the entire clamping portion 113 during rotation, and improve the fixing strength of the guide vane 124 and the clamping portion 113.

[0063] It should be noted that the guide vane 124 is clamped with the clamping shaft 113a, not fixed with the clamping shaft 113a, and the guide vane 124 can rotate relative to the clamping shaft 113a under the drive of the driving portion 121, so as to change the wind direction of the air outlet 112, so that the air blown out of the air outlet 112 can blow to more and farther space as much as possible.

[0064] The outer surface of the first stop portion 113b and / or the second stop portion 113c is at least partially curved, which can be that the outer surface of the first stop portion 113b is at least partially curved, or only the outer surface of the second stop portion 113c is at least partially curved, or at least part of the first stop portion 113b and the second stop portion 113c is curved.

[0065] Along the air outlet direction of the air outlet 112, at least part of the first stop portion 113b is curved, so that at least part of the structure of the first stop portion 113b is streamlined, when the cold air passes through the first stop portion 113b, the first stop portion 113b with the streamlined structure can play a role of guiding the flow of the cold air, reduce the resistance of the cold air passing through the first stop portion 113b, so that the cold air can quickly pass through the first stop portion 113b, reduce the risk of condensation caused by disturbance of high-humidity water vapor at the first stop portion 113b, and improve user experience.

[0066] Similarly, along the air outlet direction of the air outlet 112, at least part of the second stop portion 113c is provided in a curved surface, so that at least part of the structure of the second stop portion 113c is streamlined. When the cold air passes through the second stop portion 113c, the streamlined second stop portion 113c can guide the flow of cold air, reduce the resistance of the cold air passing through the second stop portion 113c, so that the cold air can quickly pass through the second stop portion 113c, reduce the risk of condensation caused by high-humidity water vapor disturbing the flow at the second stop portion 113c, and improve user experience.

[0067] In some embodiments, along the air outlet direction of the air outlet 112, the width of the first stop portion 113b first increases and then decreases.

[0068] At least part of the outer surface of the first stop portion 113b is a curved surface, and along the air outlet direction of the air outlet 112, the width of the first stop portion 113b first increases and then decreases, so that the first stop portion 113b along the width direction of the air outlet 112 can be substantially streamlined. When the cold air passes through the first stop portion 113b, the streamlined first stop portion 113b can guide the flow of cold air, reduce the resistance of the cold air passing through the first stop portion 113b, so that the cold air can quickly pass through the first stop portion 113b, reduce the risk of condensation caused by high-humidity water vapor disturbing the flow at the first stop portion 113b, and improve user experience.

[0069] In some embodiments, along the air outlet direction of the air outlet 112, the width of the second stop portion 113c first increases and then decreases.

[0070] At least part of the outer surface of the second stop portion 113c is a curved surface, and along the air outlet direction of the air outlet 112, the width of the second stop portion 113c first increases and then decreases, so that the second stop portion 113c along the width direction of the air outlet 112 can be substantially streamlined. When the cold air passes through the second stop portion 113c, the streamlined second stop portion 113c can guide the flow of cold air, reduce the resistance of the cold air passing through the second stop portion 113c, so that the cold air can quickly pass through the second stop portion 113c, reduce the risk of condensation caused by high-humidity water vapor disturbing the flow at the second stop portion 113c, and improve user experience.

[0071] In some embodiments, among the first stop portion 113b and the second stop portion 113c, the first stop portion 113b is arranged close to the face frame 110, and the width of the first stop portion 113b is greater than the width of the second stop portion 113c.

[0072] The width of the first stop portion 113b refers to the width of the first stop portion 113b along the length direction of the face frame 110. Similarly, the width of the second stop portion 113c refers to the width of the second stop portion 113c along the length direction of the face frame 110. Since the first stop portion 113b is arranged close to the face frame 110, the side of the first stop portion 113b away from the second stop portion 113c can be connected with the face frame 110, and the first stop portion 113b is subjected to a greater torque during the rotation of the air guide blade 124. Therefore, the width of the first stop portion 113b can be set wider, so as to increase the strength of the first stop portion 113b, reduce the risk of breakage of the first stop portion 113b, and improve the strength of the whole machine.

[0073] Figure 7 FIG. 4 shows a structural schematic diagram of the first perspective view of the air guide blade 124. Figure 8 FIG. 5 shows a structural schematic diagram of the second perspective view of the air guide blade 124. As shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the air guide blade 124 includes a blade body 124a, a first connecting portion 124b and a second connecting portion 124c mounted on the blade body 124a, the first connecting portion 124b is clamped with the connecting portion 123, and the second connecting portion 124c is clamped with the clamping portion 113. At least part of the outer surface of the second connecting portion 124c is arranged in a curved surface.

[0074] The second connecting portion 124c is clamped with the connecting portion 123, and the clamping portion 113 and the second connecting portion 124c are the root structure of the whole air guide blade 124. At least part of the outer surface of the second connecting portion 124c is arranged in a curved surface, that is, the outer surface of the second connecting portion 124c is also a streamline structure. When the cold air passes through the second connecting portion 124c, the streamlined second connecting portion 124c can guide the flow of the cold air, reduce the resistance of the cold air passing through the second connecting portion 124c, so that the cold air can quickly pass through the second connecting portion 124c, reduce the risk of condensation caused by the disturbance of high-humidity water vapor at the second connecting portion 124c, and improve the user experience.

[0075] In some embodiments, the blade body 124a has a convection hole 124d. During the driving of the air guide blade 124 by the driving portion 121, the air guide blade 124 can form a large angle with the face frame 110, so that most of the air passes through one side of the blade body 124a. Therefore, one side of the blade body 124a is a windward surface, and the other side is a leeward surface. When the air blown out of the air outlet 112 is cold air, the temperature of the windward surface is obviously lower than that of the leeward surface, so that the temperature difference between the windward surface and the leeward surface is large, which causes the leeward surface to easily condense.

[0076] The convection hole 124d is arranged on the blade body 124a, so that the windward surface and the leeward surface can be communicated, the wind of the windward surface can flow to the leeward surface through the convection hole 124d, the temperature of the windward surface and the leeward surface is substantially the same or smaller, the risk of condensation caused by a large temperature difference between the windward surface and the leeward surface is reduced, and the problem of condensation of the guide vane 124 is basically solved.

[0077] Figure 9 A cross-sectional view is shown in FIG. 1B at D-D. Figure 2 A cross-sectional view is shown in FIG. 1B at D-D. Figure 9 As shown in FIG. 1C, in some embodiments, the panel assembly 100 further has a bridge piece 130 connecting both sides of the air outlet 112, and the bridge piece 130 has a flow hole 132.

[0078] The bridge piece 130 connects both sides of the air outlet 112 along the width direction of the face frame 110. Since the air outlet 112 is substantially long strip-shaped, the bridge piece 130 connecting both sides of the air outlet 112 can improve the strength of the entire panel assembly 100 and reduce the risk of deformation or damage of the panel assembly 100.

[0079] In order to improve the strength of the bridge piece 130, the bridge piece 130 usually has a certain thickness. However, the thickness of the bridge piece 130 can cause air flow disturbance and condensation. The flow hole 132 is arranged on the bridge piece 130, so that both sides of the bridge piece 130 in the thickness direction can be communicated through the flow hole 132, the temperature difference between both sides of the bridge piece 130 in the thickness direction is reduced, the temperature of both sides of the bridge piece 130 in the thickness direction is substantially the same or smaller, the risk of condensation caused by a large temperature difference between both sides of the bridge piece 130 in the thickness direction is reduced, and the problem of condensation of the bridge piece 130 is basically solved.

Figure 10 As shown in FIG. 1C, in some embodiments, the panel assembly 100 further has a bridge piece 130 connecting both sides of the air outlet 112, and the bridge piece 130 has a flow hole 132. Figure 10 As shown in FIG. 1C, in some embodiments, the panel assembly 100 further has a bridge piece 130 connecting both sides of the air outlet 112, and the bridge piece 130 has a flow hole 132.

[0081] Specifically, the air guide plate 140 may have an air guide surface 142 and a back surface 143 arranged opposite to each other. When the air guide plate 140 is open, the airflow is mainly guided by the air guide surface 142. When the air outlet 112 of the air guide plate 140 is closed, the air guide plate 140 is in contact with the face frame 110, and the back surface 143 is located on the outside of the face frame 110 assembly, which is actually the outer surface of the air guide plate 140. The air guide plate 140 is rotatably connected to the face frame 110. When the air guide plate 140 is opened at a small angle (less than 40°), the distance between the back surface 143 and the face frame 110 is small, resulting in a small amount of airflow passing through the gap between the back surface 143 and the face frame 110. Since a large amount of air blows over the air guide surface 142, the temperature between the air guide surface 142 and the outer surface is relatively high, making it easy for condensation to form on the outer surface.

[0082] Figure 11 It shows Figure 10 A magnified view of part E, such as Figure 11 As shown, a windbreak 116 is provided on the face frame 110 near the air outlet 112. The windbreak 116 protrudes from the inner surface of the face frame 110. Since the windbreak 116 is located at the air outlet 112, it can be considered that the windbreak 116 is very close to the air guide plate 140. When the wind passes through the windbreak 116, it can flow away from the air guide plate 140 under the action of the windbreak rib, thereby reducing the risk of cold air entering the gap between the outer surface and the face frame 110 and thus reducing the risk of condensation.

[0083] In some embodiments, the panel assembly 100 further includes a foam layer 160, which is mounted on the face frame 110 and disposed at the edge of the air outlet 112, and can abut against the air guide plate 140. The air baffle 116 is inserted into the foam layer 160. The foam layer 160 is disposed on the inner surface of the face frame 110. When the air conditioner 10 is in cooling mode, the internal temperature of the air conditioner 10 is low. The foam layer 160 on the inner surface can play a role in heat preservation and can reduce the risk of condensation on the face frame 110.

[0084] The windbreak 116 is inserted into the foam layer 160. The wind blowing onto the outer surface of the air guide plate 140 can first pass through the foam layer 160 to play a certain role in heat insulation, so as to avoid the wind blowing onto the outer surface of the air guide plate 140 being too cold and causing condensation.

[0085] In addition, due to manufacturing issues, there is an installation gap between the faceplate 110 and the foam layer 160, which allows wind to seep in. To ensure the appearance, a windbreak 116 is added to the faceplate 110 to prevent cold air from entering the gap between the faceplate 110 and the foam layer 160, thus preventing condensation problems on the faceplate 110.

[0086] In summary, the panel assembly 100 provided by the embodiment of the present application, in the embodiment of the present application, the outer surface of the clamping portion 113 is provided as a curved surface, so that the outer surface is provided as a streamlined surface, when the wind passes through the clamping portion 113, the wind can quickly pass through the clamping portion 113, reducing the time of staying in the clamping portion 113, thereby reducing the condensation of the clamping portion 113. The risk of condensation of the guide vane 124 and the clamping portion 113 can also be reduced, and the user experience can be improved. The air baffle 116 is provided at the air outlet 112, which can reduce the problem of condensation of the air baffle 140.

The main body 11 can include a shell 12, an evaporator 13, a fan 14, a water pan 15, an electric control box 16 and the like. The electric control box 16, the evaporator 13 and the fan 14 are all installed in the shell 12, and the face frame 110 is detachably connected with the shell 12, after the face frame 110 is detached from the shell 12, the electric control box 16, the evaporator 13 and the fan 14 can be exposed from the shell 12, thereby facilitating maintenance.
