[0056] The air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0057] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes a housing 1, a door panel structure (the switch door 3 and the perforated plate 2 described below) and a first valve 4.

[0058] 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. 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.

[0059] like Figure 2 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.

[0060] 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.

[0061] refer to Figures 1-4 As shown, the housing 1 has an air outlet 11, which can be specifically located on the housing body 13. The two ends of the air outlet 11 along its length are a first end 111 and a second end 112, respectively. The end face of the first end 111 has a first protrusion 113, which extends along the width direction of the air outlet 11. A door panel structure is movably mounted on the housing 1 along the width direction of the air outlet 11, used to open or close the air outlet 11. In the closed state, one end of the door panel structure along the length direction of the air outlet 11 extends through the first protrusion 113. In the open state, the door panel structure is located inside the housing 1 and on one side of the width direction of the air outlet 11.

[0062] It can be understood that the shell 1 has a cavity 12, which is located on one side of the air outlet 11 in the width direction and communicates with the air outlet 11. When the door plate structure opens the air outlet 11, the hole plate 2 is located in the cavity 12. When the air conditioner 100 is a floor type air conditioner, the air outlet 11 extends in the up-down direction, the length direction of the air outlet 11 is the up-down direction, the air outlet 11 is located on the front side of the shell 1, the width direction of the air outlet 11 is the left-right direction, and the cavity 12 can be located on the left side of the air outlet 11. The right side of the cavity 12 is open and has an opening communicating with the air outlet 11, or the cavity 12 can be located on the right side of the air outlet 11, and the left side of the cavity 12 is open and has an opening communicating with the air outlet 11.

[0063] In Figure 2 the example shown in the figure, the cavity 12 is located on the right side of the air outlet 11, and the left side of the cavity 12 is open and has an opening communicating with the air outlet 11.

[0064] The cavity 12 can be located between the shell body 13 and the air outlet frame 14, which is jointly defined by the shell 1 and the air outlet frame 14, or the cavity 12 can be located in the air outlet frame 14.

[0065] The first extension outlet 113 facilitates the movement of the door plate structure, thereby facilitating the opening or closing of the air outlet 11 by the door plate structure. When the door plate structure opens the air outlet 11, the first extension outlet 113 is not blocked by the door plate structure, and has a large opening gap from the outside. Even if the door plate structure is in a state of closing the air outlet 11, there is still a small gap between the door plate structure and the inner wall of the first extension outlet 113 because the door plate structure is a moving part. The existence of the above-mentioned gap affects the appearance of the air outlet 11 on the one hand, and on the other hand, when cooling air is blown, the cold air will diffuse into the interior of the shell 1 through the first extension outlet 113, causing the problem of condensation of the internal structure of the air conditioner 100.

[0066] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown in the figure, in the present application, a first valve 4 is provided, which is rotatably arranged in the shell 1. When the door plate structure opens the air outlet 11, the first valve 4 is used to block the first extension outlet 113, which can avoid the problem of condensation in the space where the display box is located when the air conditioner 100 is cooling.

[0067] In Figure 1 the example shown in the figure, the first end 111 is the upper end of the air outlet 11, and the upper end of the air outlet 11 is provided with a display box. The provision of the first valve 4 can avoid the problem of condensation on the display box and other components.

[0068] According to the air conditioner 100 of the embodiment of the utility model, first valve 4 is arranged at the first outlet 113 for the door plate structure to extend at the first end 111, first valve 4 is used to open or close first outlet 113, when the door plate structure opens air outlet 11, first valve 4 can close first outlet 113, can avoid that air conditioner 100 cools, cold air diffuses into the inside of shell 1 through first outlet 113, can avoid the problem that condensation is produced in the inside of shell 1.In addition, the integrity of the appearance of air conditioner 100 can be ensured.

[0069] In some embodiments of the utility model, as shown in Figures 5-8 The rotation axis of the first valve 4 extends along the width direction of the air outlet 11. Thus, the first valve 4 is facilitated to rotate for opening or closing the first outlet 113. In addition, the rotation axis of the first valve 4 extends along the width direction of the air outlet 11, which can save the rotation space of the first valve 4 in the shell 1, and can reduce the space reserved for the movement of the first valve 4 in the shell 1, which is beneficial to reducing the volume of the whole machine.

[0070] In Figures 5-8 As shown in Figures 9-13 , the rotation axis of the first valve 4 is arranged on the side of the first outlet 113 facing the center of the shell 1. When the first valve 4 opens the first outlet 113, the first valve 4 is located on the side of the first outlet 113 facing the center of the shell 1. The space on the side of the first outlet 113 facing the center of the shell 1 is relatively sufficient, which is beneficial to the rotation of the first valve 4.

[0071] Further, as shown in Figure 10 and Figure 11 , when the first valve 4 opens the first outlet 113, the first valve 4 is located on the side of the first outlet 113 away from the air outlet 11, so that the first valve 4 can be prevented from being located in the air outlet 11 when opening the first outlet 113, which affects the air outlet of the air outlet 11 and affects the appearance.

[0072] As shown in Figure 8 and Figure 13 , the contour line of the first air outlet 11 is an arc shape protruding towards the outside of the shell 1, the door plate structure is a corresponding arc shape, the first outlet 113 is an arc shape protruding towards the air outlet side of the shell 1, so as to facilitate the shape of the door plate structure. In addition, the first valve 4 is a corresponding arc shape, which can adapt to the shape of the first outlet 113, facilitate to open or close the first outlet 113, and can reduce the volume of the first valve 4.

[0073] Further, as shown in Figure 8 and Figure 13As shown, the two ends of the first valve 4 in the length direction, i.e. the two ends of the first valve 4 along the width direction of the air outlet 11, are provided with first rotating shafts 44, and the two first rotating shafts 44 are rotatably arranged in the shell 1. Specifically, the extension directions of the two first rotating shafts 44 are both in the width direction of the air outlet 11, and the ends of the two first rotating shafts 44 away from each other are connected with the first valve 4, and the shell 1 is provided with two first rotating holes 116 matched with the two first rotating shafts 44. More specifically, the shell 1 is provided with two first rotating grooves, and the sides of the two first rotating grooves away from each other are open, and the sides of the two first rotating grooves close to each other are provided with the first rotating holes 116.

[0074] In some embodiments of the utility model, as shown in Figure 6 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 11 and Figure 12 , the edge of the first extension outlet 113 close to the outside of the air outlet 11 is provided with a first flange 114 extending along the length direction of the first extension outlet 113, wherein the length direction of the first extension outlet 113 is consistent with the width direction of the air outlet 11. When the first valve 4 blocks the first extension outlet 113, the first valve 4 is arranged on the side of the first flange 114 away from the air outlet 11. The first flange 114 can position the first valve 4 on one hand, and when the first valve 4 switches from the state of opening the first extension outlet 113 to the state of blocking the first extension outlet 113, the first valve 4 is connected with the first flange 114, indicating that the first valve 4 has blocked the first extension outlet 113. On the other hand, when the first valve 4 blocks the first extension outlet 113, the first valve 4 is connected with the first flange 114, which can improve the reliability of the first valve 4 blocking the first extension outlet 113, and prevent the cold air from entering the inside of the shell 1 through the gap between the first valve 4 and the side wall close to the outside of the shell 1 when the air conditioner 100 is cooling, thereby preventing condensation.

[0075] Further, as shown in Figure 6 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 11 and Figure 12 , with reference to Figure 17 and Figure 18When the first valve 4 blocks the first extension outlet 113, an end of the first valve 4 close to the outside of the air outlet 11 in the width direction is provided with a first lap joint groove 41 on the side facing the air outlet 11, the first lap joint groove 41 extends along the length direction of the first valve 4 and the bottom wall is adapted to lap with the first lap edge 114, wherein the length direction of the first valve 4 is consistent with the width direction of the air outlet 11. Thus, the sealing between the first valve 4 and the edge of the first extension outlet 113 close to the outside of the air outlet 11 can be further improved, so that the cold air can not enter the inside of the casing 1 through the gap between the first valve 4 and the side wall of the first extension outlet 113 close to the outside of the casing 1 when the air conditioner 100 is cooling, and the condensation problem can be prevented.

[0076] In some embodiments of the utility model, as shown in Figure 6 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 11 and Figure 12 , the edge of the side of the first extension outlet 113 close to the inside of the casing 1 is provided with a second lap edge 115 extending along the length direction of the first extension outlet 113, and the first valve 4 is arranged on the side of the second lap edge 115 away from the air outlet 11 when the first valve 4 blocks the first extension outlet 113. The second lap edge 115 can position the first valve 4, and when the first valve 4 is switched from the state of opening the first extension outlet 113 to the state of blocking the first extension outlet 113, the first valve 4 lapping with the second lap edge 115 indicates that the first valve 4 has blocked the first extension outlet 113. In addition, when the first valve 4 blocks the first extension outlet 113, the first valve 4 lapping with the second lap edge 115 can improve the reliability of the first valve 4 blocking the first extension outlet 113, so that the cold air can not enter the inside of the casing 1 through the gap between the first valve 4 and the side wall of the first extension outlet 113 close to the center of the casing 1 when the air conditioner 100 is cooling, and the condensation problem can be prevented.

[0077] Further, as shown in Figure 6 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 11 and Figure 12 , referring to Figure 17 and Figure 18 , the end of the first valve 4 close to the inside of the casing 1 in the width direction is provided with a second lap joint groove 42 on the side facing the air outlet 11 when the first valve 4 blocks the first extension outlet 113, the second lap joint groove 42 extends along the length direction of the first valve 4 and the bottom wall is adapted to lap with the second lap edge 115. Thus, the sealing between the first valve 4 and the edge of the first extension outlet 113 close to the inside of the casing 1 can be further improved, so that the cold air can not enter the inside of the casing 1 through the gap between the first valve 4 and the side wall of the first extension outlet 113 close to the inside of the casing 1 when the air conditioner 100 is cooling, and the condensation problem can be prevented.

[0078] In some embodiments of the utility model, as shown in Figures 17-20 As shown in the figure, the air conditioner 100 further comprises a first valve driving mechanism 43, which is arranged in the shell 1 and close to the first end 111, and is connected with the first valve 4 for driving the first valve 4 to rotate. Thus, the automation of the rotation of the first valve 4 can be realized, and the user experience can be improved. In addition, the first valve driving mechanism 43 can be connected with the control module of the air conditioner 100, and the door plate structure is also connected with the control module of the air conditioner 100. When the air conditioner 100 is started in a certain mode, the door plate structure moves correspondingly. When the door plate structure opens the air outlet 11, the control module synchronously controls the first valve 4 to block the first outlet 113.

[0079] Optionally, as shown in the figure, Figures 17-20 The first valve driving mechanism 43 comprises a driving motor, which is directly connected with the first valve 4 for driving the first valve 4 to rotate.

[0080] In some embodiments of the utility model, as shown in the figure, Figure 7 When the first valve 4 blocks the first outlet 113, the wall surface of the first valve 4 facing the air outlet 11 is flush with the end surface of the first end 111 of the air outlet 11. Thus, the flatness of the end surface of the first end 111 of the air outlet 11 can be ensured, the influence on the airflow can be reduced, the resistance in the airflow process can be reduced, the smoothness of the airflow can be improved, and the noise generated in the airflow process can be reduced.

[0081] In some embodiments of the utility model, the end surface of the second end 112 has a second outlet, which extends along the width direction of the air outlet 11. In the state of closing the air outlet 11, the other end of the door plate structure along the length direction of the air outlet 11 extends through the second outlet, and the air conditioner 100 further comprises a second valve, which is rotatably arranged in the shell 1. When the door plate structure opens the air outlet 11, the second valve is used for blocking the second outlet. Thus, when the air conditioner 100 is cooling, the cold air can be prevented from diffusing into the shell 1 through the second outlet, and the problem of condensation in the shell 1 can be avoided.

[0082] The second outlet and the first outlet 113 have the same structure, and the second valve and the first valve 4 have the same structure. Thus, the structure and the processing of the air conditioner 100 can be simplified, and the production efficiency can be improved.

[0083] Specifically, the rotation axis of the second valve extends along the width direction of the air outlet 11. Thus, the second valve is convenient to rotate for opening or closing the second outlet.
