DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0049] The specific embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely intended to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.

[0050] In the present disclosure, the orientation words such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", etc. used without the opposite description indicate the orientation or position relationship defined based on the drawing shown in the drawing, which is only for the convenience of describing the present disclosure and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, and a specific orientation configuration and operation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present disclosure. The terms "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer of the corresponding structure profile. The first direction can be the length direction of the panel, and the second direction can be the height direction of the panel, which can be specifically referred to Figure 1 and Figure 2 .

[0051] In addition, it should be noted that the terms such as "first", "second", etc. are used to distinguish one element from another element, and do not have sequentiality and importance. In addition, in the description with reference to the drawings, the same reference signs in different drawings represent the same elements.

[0052] In the description of the present disclosure, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set", "connected", "connected", "installed" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or it can be detachably connected, or integrally connected; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present disclosure can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0053] In the related art, in order to improve the use experience of the air conditioner, for example, in order to avoid that the air of the air conditioner directly blows to the user, a detection module (such as a human body detection module) for detecting indoor human body information is arranged on the air conditioner panel, but due to the small space on the air conditioner panel, and other components (such as an electronic control board, etc.) are also arranged on the air conditioner panel, the installation of the detection module on the air conditioner panel is relatively inconvenient, in addition, how to increase the detection range of the indoor object information has also become the current research direction.

[0054] In view of this, as Figures 1 to 9 shown, according to a first aspect of the present disclosure, a mounting piece 1 is provided for mounting a detection module 2 of an air conditioner indoor unit on a panel 3, that is, the mounting piece 1 is used for mounting the detection module 2 on the panel 3 of the panel assembly 100, and the detection module 2 of the air conditioner indoor unit has a detection surface 24 for detecting indoor object information.

[0055] The mounting piece 1 comprises a plurality of mounting surfaces 11, each of which is used for mounting a corresponding detection module 2, and the plurality of mounting surfaces 11 comprises a first mounting surface 12 and a second mounting surface 13 arranged at an angle, so that the detection surfaces 24 of the detection modules 2 mounted on the first mounting surface 12 and the detection surfaces 24 of the detection modules 2 mounted on the second mounting surface 13 can be arranged at an angle, for example, see Figure 3 and Figure 6 The two detection surfaces 24 can have an included angle β.

[0056] First of all, it should be pointed out that the detection surface 24 of the detection module 2 is the surface on one side of the detection module 2 from which the signal is emitted, or the surface on one side of the detection module 2 which is first contacted by the signal when the detection module 2 receives the signal, which can be specifically referred to as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 6

[0057] The present disclosure does not limit the specific type of the above-mentioned detection module 2, for example, the above-mentioned detection module 2 can be a human body detection module, which is used for detecting whether there is a person in the room and the specific position of the person in the room, and adjusting the air direction, air volume, etc. of the air conditioner according to the dynamic information of the person in the room, so as to improve the use experience of the air conditioner. Furthermore, the above-mentioned detection module can also be a temperature detection module, which can be used for detecting the temperature of the air in different areas of the room, and dynamically adjusting the air direction, air volume, etc. of the air conditioner according to the detection value, so as to reduce the temperature difference in different areas of the room, and also improve the use experience of the air conditioner.

[0058] Through the above technical solution, since the mounting piece 1 is provided with a plurality of mounting surfaces 11, and each mounting surface 11 is used for mounting a corresponding detection module 2, a plurality of detection modules 2 are mounted on the corresponding mounting surfaces 11 of the mounting piece 1 respectively, and the mounting piece 1 is connected with the panel 3 of the air conditioner indoor unit, so as to realize the fixation of the plurality of detection modules 2 on the panel 3 of the air conditioner indoor unit, that is, a plurality of detection modules 2 can be mounted on the panel 3 by using one mounting piece 1, so that the installation of the plurality of detection modules 2 on the panel 3 of the air conditioner indoor unit is relatively simple, and it is also beneficial to simplify the structure of the air conditioner indoor unit.

[0059] ​In addition, since the mounting member 1 is adapted to mount a plurality of detection modules 2, and the plurality of mounting surfaces 11 include the first mounting surface 12 and the second mounting surface 13 arranged at an angle, the plurality of detection modules 2 are beneficial to increase the detection range of the indoor object information due to the presence of the plurality of detection modules 2. Moreover, by reasonably designing the included angle between the plurality of mounting surfaces 11 (such as the first mounting surface 12 and the second mounting surface 13), the detection surfaces 24 of the plurality of detection modules 2 can have different orientations, and the detection modules 2 with different orientations can detect the object information of different areas in the room, which is beneficial to further increase the detection range of the indoor object information and reduce the detection dead angle of the indoor object information.

[0060] For example, as shown, by setting the detection surfaces 24 of the two detection modules 2 to different directions of the panel 3 (such as Figure 3 opposite arrangement as shown, or Figure 6 opposite arrangement as shown), on the one hand, the detection areas of the detection surfaces 24 of the plurality of detection modules 2 with different orientations can cover different positions in the room, and the object information of different areas in the room can be detected, so as to increase the detection range of the object information. On the other hand, the detection range of the plurality of detection modules 2 arranged at intervals along the length direction of the panel 3 can also cover the left and right areas of the air conditioner (such as the indoor unit of the air conditioner), and the detection modules 2 can also detect the object information of the left and right sides of the air conditioner, which is beneficial to reduce the detection dead angle of the indoor object information.

[0061] It can be understood that the above detection dead angle refers to the area that cannot be covered by the signal of the detection module 2. For example, when the number of detection modules 2 is one, and the detection surface 24 of the detection module 2 is installed parallel to the panel 3, since the signal of the detection module 2 spreads in an eight-character shape, the signal of the detection module 2 can only cover the area in front of the air conditioner indoor unit where the detection module 2 is arranged, and cannot cover the areas on the left and right sides of the air conditioner indoor unit. In this case, the areas on the left and right sides of the air conditioner indoor unit correspond to the detection dead angle.

[0062] In the present disclosure, the mounting surface 11 on the mounting member 1 can have any appropriate angle as long as the mounting surface 11 can meet the mounting requirements of the detection module 2. For example, the mounting surface 11 can be parallel to the detection surface 24 of the detection module 2, or the mounting surface 11 can be arranged at an angle with the detection surface 24 of the detection module 2, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0063] As an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first mounting surface 12 is adapted to be parallel to the detection surface 24 of the detection module 2 mounted thereon, and / or the second mounting surface 13 is adapted to be parallel to the detection surface 24 of the detection module 2 mounted thereon. In other words, the angle between the detection surface 24 of the detection module 2 mounted on the first mounting surface 12 or the second mounting surface 13 and the panel 3 is equal to the angle between the mounting surface 11 and the panel 3. Thus, by reasonably designing the angle between the mounting surface 11 (such as the first mounting surface 12 and the second mounting surface 13) and the panel 3, when the detection module 2 is mounted, it is not necessary to repeatedly measure the mounting angle of the detection module 2 on the panel 3. It is only necessary to mount the plurality of detection modules 2 on the corresponding mounting surfaces 11 respectively, so that the detection module 2 and the panel 3 are arranged at a predetermined angle β, which is beneficial to simplify the mounting step of the detection module 2 on the panel 3, thereby improving the mounting efficiency of the detection module 2 on the panel 3.

[0064] In order to facilitate the connection of the mounting member 1 and the panel 3, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 7 optionally, the mounting member 1 has a connecting surface 14 adapted to be connected with the arrangement surface 31 on the panel 3, and at least one of the first mounting surface 12 and the second mounting surface 13 is arranged at an angle with the connecting surface 14. The arrangement surface 31 here is the surface of the panel 3 for arranging the mounting member 1. Since the connecting surface 14 on the mounting member 1 is adapted to be connected with the arrangement surface 31 on the panel 3, when the mounting member 1 is mounted on the panel 3, the mounting member 1 can be formed into a surface-to-surface contact with the panel 3. The mounting member 1 with a larger contact area is better fixed on the panel 3 and is not easy to shake, effectively avoiding the situation that the mounting member 1 shakes, causing the detection module 2 to shake, and affecting the detection accuracy of the detection module 2.

[0065] In addition, by reasonably designing the angle between the first mounting surface 12 and the connecting surface 14, and the angle between the second mounting surface 13 and the connecting surface 14, the detection modules 2 mounted on the first mounting surface 12 and the second mounting surface 13 respectively can have different orientations, so that the object information in different areas of the room can be detected.

[0066] The present disclosure does not limit the specific positional relationship between the first mounting surface 12 and the second mounting surface 13, as an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in Figures 3 to 5 in the first direction, the first mounting surface 12 and the second mounting surface 13 are both inclinedly arranged with the connecting surface 14, and in the first direction, the first mounting surface 12 and the second mounting surface 13 are oppositely arranged, and the first direction is parallel to the length direction of the panel 3.

[0067] Thus, when the mounting piece 1 is mounted on the panel 3, the first mounting surface 12 is different in distance from the panel 3 at both ends in the length direction of the panel 3, the detection surface 24 of the detection module 2 mounted on the first mounting surface 12 is different in distance from the panel 3 at both ends in the length direction of the panel 3, the second mounting surface 13 is different in distance from the panel 3 at both ends in the length direction of the panel 3, and the detection surface 24 of the detection module 2 mounted on the second mounting surface 13 is different in distance from the panel 3 at both ends in the length direction of the panel 3. As shown in Figure 3 , the distance between one of the two detection surfaces 24 and the panel 3 at the end close to the other detection surface 24 is less than the distance between one of the two detection surfaces 24 and the panel 3 at the end away from the other detection surface 24.

[0068] Thus, by reasonably designing the included angle between the first mounting surface 12 and the second mounting surface 13 and the panel 3, the detection modules 2 mounted on the first mounting surface 12 and the second mounting surface 13 are matched with each other, which is beneficial to enable the detection modules 2 to have a detection range of 180°. The two detection modules 2 with a detection range of 180° can not only detect object information in the front area of the air conditioner indoor unit, but also simultaneously detect object information on the left and right sides of the air conditioner indoor unit. The detection range is large and the dead angle is small, which is beneficial to improve the user experience.

[0069] In the mounting piece 1 provided in the present disclosure, the first mounting surface 12 and the second mounting surface 13 can have various arrangement modes on the mounting piece 1, and are not limited to the above-described arrangement mode opposite to each other, as long as the detection range of the plurality of detection modules 2 as a whole is large and the dead angle is small. As a second embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in Figures 6 to 8 , the first mounting surface 12 and the second mounting surface 13 are arranged opposite to each other in the first direction.

[0070] Thus, when the mounting piece 1 is mounted on the panel 3, the first mounting surface 12 is different in distance from the panel 3 at both ends in the length direction of the panel 3, the detection surface 24 of the detection module 2 mounted on the first mounting surface 12 is different in distance from the panel 3 at both ends in the length direction of the panel 3, the second mounting surface 13 is different in distance from the panel 3 at both ends in the length direction of the panel 3, and the detection surface 24 of the detection module 2 mounted on the second mounting surface 13 is different in distance from the panel 3 at both ends in the length direction of the panel 3. As shown in Figure 6 , the distance between one of the two detection surfaces 24 and the panel 3 at the end close to the other detection surface 24 is greater than the distance between one of the two detection surfaces 24 and the panel 3 at the end away from the other detection surface 24.

[0071] Therefore, by reasonably designing the included angle between the first mounting member 1 and the second mounting member 1 and the panel 3, the detection modules 2 mounted on the first mounting surface 12 and the second mounting surface 13 can be matched with each other, so that the two detection modules 2 have a larger detection range.

[0072] In order to reduce the dead angle of the detection module 2, optionally, as shown in Figure 9 , along the length direction of the panel 3, the projection of the mounting surface 11 is arranged at an angle with the projection of the arrangement surface 31, so that the projection of the detection surface 24 is arranged at an angle with the projection of the arrangement surface 31, for example, the distance between the lower end of the detection surface 24 and the panel 3 is greater than the distance between the upper end of the detection surface 24 and the panel. In other words, the detection module 2 is arranged to be inclined along the height direction of the panel 3, so that by reasonably designing the inclination angle of the detection module 2, the detection dead angle of the detection module 2 can be reduced. For example, the above-mentioned detection module 2 can be inclined towards the ground, and the detection area of the detection surface 24 arranged towards the ground can be mainly concentrated on the ground and the wall surface of the indoor, i.e. the personnel activity area, and will not be concentrated on the area where the ceiling is located (i.e. the area where the personnel will not move), so as to reduce the detection dead angle of the detection module 2.

[0073] In the present disclosure, the detection module 2 can be installed at any position on the mounting member 1, for example, the detection module 2 can be installed on the outer side of the mounting member 1, and the detection module 2 can also be installed in the mounting member 1. As an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and 7 to Figure 9 , the mounting member 1 can be configured as a box body structure 16, and a plurality of accommodation cavities 15 for mounting the detection module 2 are arranged in the inside of the box body structure 16, and each of the accommodation cavities 15 is provided with a mounting surface 11. In other words, a plurality of detection modules 2 are mounted on the inner side of the mounting member 1, and the mounting member 1 can protect the detection module 2, so that the detection module 2 mounted on the inner side of the mounting member 1 is not easy to collide with other components during use, and the detection module 2 is not easy to be damaged, and has a longer service life.

[0074] It should be noted that for the embodiment in which the mounting member 1 is configured as a box body structure 16 and a plurality of accommodation cavities 15 are arranged in the box body structure 16, the present disclosure does not limit the relationship between the plurality of accommodation cavities 15, for example, the plurality of accommodation cavities 15 can be communicated with each other, and the plurality of accommodation cavities 15 can also be independent of each other. As an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the box structure 16 described above has a partition 17 inside, and each pair of adjacent receiving cavities 15 is separated by a corresponding partition 17. The partition 17 can separate two adjacent receiving cavities 15, thereby forming multiple receiving cavities 15 into independent receiving cavities 15.

[0075] This disclosure does not limit the specific type of the aforementioned separator 17. Optionally, the separator 17 may include a metal plate. The metal separator 17 can shield the detection signals of two adjacent detection modules 2, thereby effectively preventing interference between the two adjacent detection modules 2 and affecting the detection results of the detection modules 2.

[0076] To facilitate securing the wiring harness connected to the detection module 2, for example, the wiring harness connecting the detection module 2 and the control board 4 mentioned below, optionally, as follows: Figure 4 , Figure 7 as well as Figure 9 As shown, the aforementioned housing structure 16 may further include a housing 161 and a wire-holding part 162. The wire-holding part 162 is disposed inside the housing 161 and is used to fix the wire harness. In this way, the wire harness of the detection module 2 can be fixed inside the housing 161 by the wire-holding part 162, and the wire harness will not be directly exposed on the outside of the housing 161. This facilitates wiring and effectively avoids wear, breakage, or even short circuits caused by wire harness shaking, making the mounting component 1 highly practical.

[0077] This disclosure does not limit the specific structure of the wire-holding part 162, as long as the wire-holding part 162 can reliably fix the wire harness. As one embodiment of this disclosure, the wire-holding part 162 may include a partition 163, on which a wire-holding groove 164 for holding the wire harness is provided. The partition 163 can fix the wire harness, thereby preventing the wire harness from shaking inside the housing 161.

[0078] In addition, since the partition 163 is provided with a wire harness slot 164 for securing the wire harness, the wire harness can be fixed and removed from the box 161 simply by inserting the wire harness into the slot 164 or removing the wire harness from the slot 164. The operation of fixing and removing the wire harness from the box 161 is relatively convenient.

[0079] Optionally, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 as well as Figure 8 As shown, the width of the wire-holding groove 164 gradually decreases along the direction from the opening of the housing 161 to the bottom of the housing 161. The gradually decreasing width of the wire-holding groove 164 facilitates the insertion and removal of the wire harness.

[0080] In order to simplify the wiring, optionally, as shown in Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the above-mentioned partition 17 is provided with a wire hole 171, and the wire hole 171 is used to communicate the two accommodating cavities 15 located on both sides of the partition 17. In this way, only one wire hole 21 needs to be provided on the mounting member 1, and the wiring of the plurality of detection modules 2 arranged in the mounting member 1 can be realized, and the wiring of the plurality of detection modules 2 in the mounting member 1 is relatively simple.

[0081] Here, it should be noted that the specific installation mode of the detection module 2 in the accommodating cavity 15 is not limited by the present disclosure, and the detection module 2 can be attached to the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 15 for installation, and the detection module 2 can be suspended in the accommodating cavity 15 for installation.

[0082] As an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 7 , the bottom wall of the above-mentioned accommodating cavity 15 is provided with at least two connecting protrusions 151, and the protrusion end face 153 of the connecting protrusion 151 away from the bottom wall is provided with a first mounting hole 152, and the first mounting hole 152 is used to be connected with the second mounting hole on the detection module 2, and the mounting surface 11 includes the protrusion end face 153.

[0083] In this way, when the detection module 2 is installed on the connecting protrusion 151, the detection module 2 and the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 15 can have a certain gap, so that even if the side of the detection module 2 away from the panel 3 is uneven (for example, the side of the detection module 2 away from the panel 3 has protruding and / or recessed components), the detection module 2 can be reliably installed in the accommodating cavity 15 through the above-mentioned connecting protrusion 151, effectively avoiding the uneven detection module 2 being directly installed on the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 15, and the situation that the detection module 2 is not stably installed in the accommodating cavity 15 occurs.

[0084] It should be noted that the specific arrangement position of the connecting protrusion 151 in the accommodating cavity 15 is not limited by the present disclosure, and optionally, as shown in the figure, the number of the above-mentioned connecting protrusion 151 is two, and the two connecting protrusions 151 are suitable for being arranged in the accommodating cavity 15 along the diagonal line of the detection module 2.
