Abstract
Description

[0052] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0053] like Figures 1 to 8As shown, Embodiment 1 of this utility model provides an air conditioner, which includes: an indoor unit housing 10, a fan blade 20, and an electric heater 30. The indoor unit housing 10 is provided with an air inlet. The fan blade 20 is disposed inside the indoor unit housing 10. The electric heater 30 is disposed inside the indoor unit housing 10 and located between the fan blade 20 and the air inlet. The electric heater 30 includes an electric heating element 31 and a temperature limiter 32 connected to each other. The temperature limiter 32 is located on the side of the electric heating element 31 near the air inlet.
[0054] The air conditioner provided in this embodiment, by placing the electric heater 30 inside the indoor unit casing 10 and between the fan blades 20 and the air inlet, and positioning the thermostat 32 on the side of the electric heating element 31 closer to the air inlet, ensures smooth airflow at the location of the thermostat 32. This avoids inaccurate temperature detection by the thermostat 32 due to poor airflow at its location, which could lead to frequent on / off cycles of the electric heating element 31. This effectively extends the service life of the electric heater 30 and facilitates improved indoor temperature rise, thus enhancing the reliability and safety of the electric heater 30. Therefore, the air conditioner provided in this embodiment solves the technical problem in the prior art where frequent on / off cycles of the thermostat 32 can affect the service life of the electric heater 30.
[0055] Specifically, Figures 1 to 3 The arrows in the text all represent the direction of airflow.
[0056] Specifically, in this embodiment, the temperature limiter 32 is positioned on the side of the electric heating element 31 near the air inlet. This better ensures airflow around the temperature limiter 32, preventing the temperature from being too high due to hot air concentrating around it. This avoids the temperature limiter 32 frequently starting and stopping, as it and the electric heating element 31 would easily reach their upper limit value, causing frequent on / off cycles. This effectively improves indoor comfort for users. Specifically, the temperature limiter 32's configuration in this embodiment reduces its detected temperature by 22%.
[0057] By employing the temperature limiter 32 configuration in this embodiment, the temperature limiter 32 is not positioned on the leeward side of the electric heater 30. This avoids the influence of stagnant airflow in the triangular area on the leeward side, preventing the temperature limiter 32 from being affected by the accumulation of airflow on the leeward side when the electric heater 30 is turned on, thus avoiding the situation where the temperature limiter 32 frequently starts and stops due to reaching the upper limit value. Comparing the temperature limiter 32 being located on the windward side and the leeward side of the electric heater 30, when the electric heater 30 is turned on and the temperature of the temperature limiter 32 is tested, the temperature of the temperature limiter 32 reaches 90°C when the electric heater 30 is on the leeward side, while the temperature of the temperature limiter 32 is 70°C when the electric heater 30 is on the windward side. The detected temperature can be reduced by 22%, making it less likely to trigger frequent starting and stopping of the temperature limiter 32.
[0058] Specifically, an airflow pressure gradient will be formed on the leeward side: the airflow enters the air duct through the evaporator, and there is a large airflow velocity along both ends of the electric heater, while the airflow in the middle area is slow because it is on the leeward side. At this time, there is a certain air pressure difference between the airflow in the two ends and the middle area, and there is an airflow backflow phenomenon in the middle area. The poor airflow will easily lead to the accumulation of hot air and frequent operation of the temperature limiter.
[0059] In this embodiment, the indoor unit housing 10 includes a first air inlet side plate 11, a main air inlet plate 12, and a second air inlet side plate 13 connected in sequence. The first air inlet side plate 11 is connected to the main air inlet plate 12 at a first preset angle, and the second air inlet side plate 13 is connected to the main air inlet plate 12 at a second preset angle. The air inlet section includes a first vent on the first air inlet side plate 11, a main air inlet on the main air inlet plate 12, and a second vent on the second air inlet side plate 13. The thermostat 32 is located on the side of the electric heating element 31 near the main air inlet. This structural arrangement helps to better ensure that the thermostat 32 is in a position with smooth airflow, thus better avoiding frequent on / off cycles caused by poor airflow at its location.
[0060] Specifically, the temperature limiter 32 is located at the upper end of the electric heating element 31. This structural arrangement takes into account the issue of hot air rising, thereby enabling the temperature limiter 32 to effectively detect the highest temperature and thus improving the detection accuracy of the temperature limiter 32.
[0061] Specifically, the electric heating element 31 can be a PTC electric heating element, that is, a heating element using PTC material (a semiconductor material or component with a large positive temperature coefficient).
[0062] Specifically, the electric heater 30 also includes a mounting bracket 33, which is disposed on the electric heating element 31 and located at the upper end of the electric heating element 31. The temperature limiter 32 is mounted on the mounting bracket 33. This facilitates the improvement of the installation stability of the temperature limiter 32.
[0063] Specifically, the electric heater 30 also includes a thermal fuse 34, which is disposed on the electric heating element 31. With this arrangement, the temperature limiter 32 can slowly reset, and the thermal fuse 34 can serve as a last resort for the electric heater 30, controlling the electric heater 30 to disconnect from the power supply when the temperature is high, thereby better protecting the electric heater 30.
[0064] In this embodiment, the air conditioner also includes an evaporator 40, which is disposed inside the indoor unit casing 10, and an electric heater 30 is disposed between the evaporator 40 and the fan blades 20. This structural arrangement facilitates optimization of the internal layout of the indoor unit, ensuring effective cooling and heating airflow in both cooling and heating modes.
[0065] Specifically, the electric heater 30 is spaced apart from the evaporator 40, and the electric heater 30 is spaced apart from the fan blade 20. The distance between the electric heater 30 and the evaporator 40 is smaller than the distance between the electric heater 30 and the fan blade 20. This structural arrangement facilitates the better dissipation of a large amount of hot air, preventing a large amount of hot air from accumulating inside the indoor unit casing 10, thereby effectively increasing the indoor air temperature and improving user comfort.
[0066] In this embodiment, the air conditioner further includes an evaporator 40, which has a main evaporation section 42 corresponding to the main air inlet plate 12. The electric heating element 31 has a square strip structure and has a first side 311 and a second side 312 connected adjacent to each other. The length of the first side 311 is a, and the width of the second side 312 is b, where a > b. The first side 311 is disposed opposite to the main air inlet plate 12, and a thermostat 32 is installed on the first side 311. The distance between the thermostat 32 and the main evaporation section 42 is s, and the distance between the outer diameter edge of the fan blade 20 and the main evaporation section 42 is h. Wherein, 0.78hb ≥ s ≥ 0.36h. With this structural arrangement, if the electric heater 30 is close to the evaporator 40, the small air intake area results in a high airflow velocity at both ends of the evaporator 40 when the airflow enters the duct, while the airflow in the middle area is relatively slow. This creates a certain air pressure difference between the different areas, which not only affects the fan performance but also prevents airflow around the electric heater 30 from circulating. Hot air concentrates near the electric heater 30, causing the temperature limiter 32 to detect a higher temperature, easily reaching its upper limit and causing the temperature limiter 32 to frequently start and stop. If the electric heater 30 is far from the evaporator 40, it is closer to the fan blade 20 in the limited space, resulting in a rapid airflow into the fan blade 20. This creates an air pressure difference at the inlet of the fan blade 20, and the airflow velocity varies at different points on the outer circumference of the fan blade 20. This causes the vortex inside the fan blade 20 to increase, resulting in airflow fluctuations and a corresponding increase in noise. By setting the distance of the temperature limiter 32 within the above range, it is possible to effectively prevent hot air from concentrating around the temperature limiter 32 and to effectively reduce noise fluctuations.
[0067] In this embodiment, the air conditioner further includes an evaporator 40, which has a main evaporation section 42 corresponding to the main air inlet plate 12. The electric heating element 31 has a square strip structure and has a first side 311 and a second side 312 connected adjacent to each other. The length of the first side 311 is a, and the width of the second side 312 is b, where a > b. The second side 312 is disposed opposite to the main air inlet plate 12, and a thermostat 32 is installed on the second side 312. The distance between the thermostat 32 and the main evaporation section 42 is s, and the distance between the outer diameter edge of the fan blade 20 and the main evaporation section 42 is h. Wherein, 0.6hb ≥ s ≥ 0.48h. With this structural arrangement, if the electric heater 30 is close to the evaporator 40, the small air intake area results in a high airflow velocity at both ends of the evaporator 40 when the airflow enters the duct, while the airflow in the middle area is relatively slow. This creates a certain air pressure difference between the different areas, which not only affects the fan performance but also prevents airflow around the electric heater 30 from circulating. Hot air concentrates near the electric heater 30, causing the temperature limiter 32 to detect a higher temperature, easily reaching its upper limit and causing the temperature limiter 32 to frequently start and stop. If the electric heater 30 is far from the evaporator 40, it is closer to the fan blade 20 in the limited space, resulting in a rapid airflow into the fan blade 20. This creates an air pressure difference at the inlet of the fan blade 20, and the airflow velocity varies at different points on the outer circumference of the fan blade 20. This causes the vortex inside the fan blade 20 to increase, resulting in airflow fluctuations and a corresponding increase in noise. By setting the distance of the temperature limiter 32 within the aforementioned range, it is possible to effectively prevent hot air from concentrating around the periphery of the temperature limiter 32 and to effectively reduce noise fluctuations. Specifically, since the width b of the electric heater 30 is less than the length a of the electric heater 30, the windward surface is small, making it easy to form an airflow pressure difference, and therefore the setting position of the corresponding limiter is different.
[0068] Specifically, the shape of the evaporator 40 is adapted to the shape of the air inlet plate, and the evaporator 40 includes a first side evaporation section 41, a main evaporation section 42 and a second side evaporation section 43 connected in sequence.
[0069] Specifically, the indoor unit housing 10 has at least two air duct cavities 14, both of which are connected to the air inlet. There are at least two fan blades 20 and at least two electric heaters 30. Each fan blade 20 is installed within its corresponding air duct cavity 14, and each electric heater 30 is also installed within its corresponding air duct cavity 14. Similarly, each electric heater 30 is positioned between its corresponding fan blade and the air inlet. This structural arrangement facilitates airflow from the at least two air duct cavities 14, allowing for airflow from different sides of the room and thus improving indoor air comfort.
[0070] In this embodiment, there are two air duct cavities 14, which are symmetrically distributed within the indoor unit housing 10. The indoor unit housing 10 has two symmetrically distributed air outlets 15, located on opposite sides of the housing. The air outlets of the two air duct cavities 14 correspond one-to-one with the air outlets 15, with each air outlet of the air duct 14 facing the corresponding air outlet 15. This structural arrangement better meets the comfort requirements of indoor users.
[0071] Specifically, the two air duct chambers 14 are located on the left and right sides of the indoor unit casing 10, respectively, to achieve air supply to the left and right sides. The two air outlets 15 can be controlled independently. Each air duct chamber is equipped with a fan blade, and the electric heater 30 in each air duct chamber is located between the corresponding fan blade 20 and the evaporator.
[0072] Specifically, the air conditioner in this embodiment can be a cabinet air conditioner.
[0073] As can be seen from the above description, the above embodiments of this utility model achieve the following technical effects: they can solve the technical problem that frequent on / off cycles of the temperature limiter in the prior art can affect the service life of the electric heater, reduce the number of frequent on / off cycles of the temperature limiter, and extend the service life of the electric heater; reduce the frequent on / off cycles of the electric heater, and improve the indoor temperature rise effect; and improve the reliability and safety performance of the electric heater.
