In addition, "and / or" or "and / or" appears in the whole text, which means that the three parallel schemes are included, for example, "A and / or B" includes A scheme, or B scheme, or A and B scheme. In addition, the technical solutions of each embodiment can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the realization of ordinary skilled in the art, when the combination of technical solutions appears contradictory or unachievable, it should be considered that the combination of technical solutions does not exist, and is not within the protection scope required by the utility model.

[0034] The utility model provides a kind of air conditioner. It should be noted that the air conditioner of the utility model is not particularly referred to the device with refrigeration or heating function, can also be the device with only air purification function or fresh air function, of course, it can also be the air conditioning device with multiple composite functions.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 And Figure 2 In an embodiment of the utility model, the air conditioner comprises:

[0036] The shell 100 is installed with control module (not shown);

[0037] Panel 200, rotatably connected to the shell 100, the panel 200 is installed with display module (only its shell part 500 is shown in the figure);And

[0038] Magnet 300 and magnetic sensor 400, one is installed in the display module, the other is installed in the shell 100, and is close to the control module setting, the magnet 300 and the magnetic sensor 400 are oppositely arranged, and the magnetic sensor 400 is electrically connected to the control module.

[0039] In the technical scheme of the utility model, the inner side of the panel 200 is provided with a display module for displaying relevant operation information of the air conditioner, and the control module is installed on the shell 100 instead of being installed on the panel 200, so that the installation stability of the display module and the control module can be guaranteed, the weight of the panel 200 can be reduced, the panel 200 can be easily opened by the user or the maintenance personnel, and the control module and the display module are arranged close to each other, so that the control module and the display module can be electrically connected.

[0040] It can be understood that when the user needs to clean the inside of the air conditioner or the maintenance personnel needs to overhaul the air conditioner, the panel 200 needs to be opened and then corresponding operation is performed. In the technical scheme of the utility model, when the panel 200 is opened, the panel 200 is rotated away from the shell 100, so that the distance between the magnet 300 and the magnetic sensor 400 is increased, the magnetic induction intensity of the magnet 300 sensed by the magnetic sensor 400 is changed, the control module can control the whole air conditioner to be powered off or the components in the air conditioner to be powered off according to the magnetic induction intensity signal sensed by the magnetic sensor 400, the risk of electric shock is eliminated, the components in operation do not cause harm to the relevant personnel, the safety of the air conditioner is improved, and the personal safety of the relevant personnel is guaranteed. When the panel 200 is closed, the distance between the magnet 300 and the magnetic sensor 400 is reduced, the magnetic induction intensity sensed by the magnetic sensor 400 is also increased, and when the control module receives the magnetic induction intensity signal from the magnetic sensor 400, the relevant module is controlled to be powered on, so that the air conditioner can automatically restore the standby state. In this way, the air conditioner does not need to be plugged in and out of power, the air conditioner can judge whether the panel 200 is opened or not, and the on-off power of the relevant module is controlled according to the judgment result, so that the safety of the air conditioner and the use experience are improved.

[0041] Without loss of generality, the magnetic sensor 400 is configured as a Hall element. It can be understood that as the distance between the Hall element and the magnet 300 changes, the magnetic field intensity at the Hall element changes, and the potential difference generated thereby also changes. In this way, the Hall element can generate different signals according to the sensed change in the magnetic field intensity, and the control module can control the on-off power of the relevant module according to the different sensing signals. Of course, in other embodiments, the magnetic sensor 400 can also be a magnetoresistance sensor or an inductive sensor. The magnetoresistance sensor utilizes the characteristic that the resistance of a material changes with the change in the magnetic field, and the inductive sensor detects the change in the magnetic field intensity by measuring the change in the induced electromotive force in the coil. Both of them can generate different signals according to the sensed change in the magnetic field intensity.

[0042] Specifically, the air conditioner further comprises a fresh air device (not shown), and the control module is configured to control the fresh air device to be in a powered-on state or a powered-off state according to the sensing signal of the magnetic sensor 400. That is, when the panel 200 is opened, the control module controls the fresh air device to be in the powered-off state, so that the fresh air device is disconnected from the power supply, preventing the user's fingers from being inserted into the interior of the air conditioner and contacting the interface of the fresh air device to be injured. After the panel 200 is closed, the control module controls the fresh air device to be in the powered-on state, so that the fresh air device is connected to the power supply. Of course, in other embodiments, the control module can also control the entire air conditioner to be in the powered-on state or the powered-off state according to the sensing signal of the magnetic sensor 400.

[0043] In an embodiment, when the panel 200 is closed, the distance between the magnet 300 and the magnetic sensor 400 is 4-10 mm. That is, the distance between the magnet 300 and the magnetic sensor 400 is greater than or equal to 4 mm and less than or equal to 10 mm. In this way, the distance between the magnet 300 and the magnetic sensor 400 is close enough to ensure the magnetic sensor 400, and the distance can reduce the requirement for the magnetic field strength of the magnet 300, thereby reducing the cost of the magnet 300. Of course, in other embodiments, the distance between the magnet 300 and the magnetic sensor 400 can also be adjusted to other values, such as less than 4 mm or greater than 10 mm, according to actual needs.

[0044] In an embodiment, the distance between the magnet 300 and the rotation axis of the panel 200 is 30-50 mm. That is, the distance between the magnet 300 and the rotation axis of the panel 200 is greater than or equal to 30 mm and less than or equal to 50 mm. In this way, when the panel 200 is opened to a certain angle, the distance between the magnet 300 and the magnetic sensor 400 can be large enough to make the magnetic sensor 400 out of the magnetic field range of the magnet 300, and the control module controls the relevant module to be powered off according to the feedback of the magnetic sensor 400. Without loss of generality, when applied to a wall-mounted air conditioner, the distance between the magnet 300 and the rotation axis of the panel 200 is in this range, and the angle of the panel opening is about 5 degrees, that is, the magnetic sensor 400 can be out of the magnetic field range of the magnet 300. Of course, in other embodiments, the distance between the magnet 300 and the rotation axis of the panel 200 can also be adjusted to other values, such as less than 30 mm or greater than 50 mm, according to actual needs.

[0045] In an embodiment, the magnet 300 is mounted on the display module, and the magnetic sensor 400 is mounted on the housing 100. In this way, the magnetic sensor 400 and the control module are both arranged on the housing 100, which can facilitate the electrical connection between the magnetic sensor 400 and the control module. If the magnetic sensor 400 is arranged on the display module, the electrical connection line between the magnetic sensor 400 and the control module needs to be reserved with a certain length, so that the electrical connection between the magnetic sensor 400 and the control module is maintained when the panel 200 is opened. In the present embodiment, the magnetic sensor 400 is arranged on the housing 100, which can shorten the length of the electrical connection line between the magnetic sensor 400 and the control module, and reduce the wiring difficulty. Of course, in other embodiments, the magnet 300 can be mounted on the housing 100, and the magnetic sensor 400 can be mounted on the display module. The magnetic sensor 400 can be arranged on the outside of the display module to facilitate the electrical connection between the magnetic sensor 400 and the control module.

[0046] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the housing 100 includes a face frame 110, and the panel 200 is rotatably connected to the face frame 110. The control module and the magnetic sensor 400 are both located on the side of the face frame 110 away from the panel 200. It can be understood that the housing 100 also includes a bottom plate, and the face frame 110 is arranged on the bottom plate, so that a containing space is formed between the bottom plate and the face frame 110, which can accommodate related components such as heat exchangers and wind wheels. In the present embodiment, the control module can be mounted on the bottom plate or the face frame 110, or has a connection relationship with the bottom plate and the face frame 110. In the present embodiment, the control module and the magnetic sensor 400 can be covered by the face frame 110, which can provide protection for the control module and the magnetic sensor 400 through the face frame 110, and can also avoid direct contact by the user, which can cause damage to the related components or harm to the user himself. In addition, the control module and the magnetic sensor 400 are located on the same side of the face frame 110, which can minimize the length of the electrical connection line between the magnetic sensor 400 and the control module, and reduce the wiring difficulty. Of course, in other embodiments, the magnetic sensor 400 can be mounted on the side of the face frame 110 close to the panel 200, and a cover can be additionally arranged to provide protection.

[0047] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 2The display module includes a shell portion 500, and the magnet 300 is mounted to the side of the shell portion 500 facing the panel 200. It can be understood that the relevant functional devices of the display module can also be mounted to the side of the shell portion 500 facing the panel 200, so that after the panel 200 is opened, the important devices of the display module and the magnet 300 are not exposed to the outside, and the user can be prevented from directly touching, damaging the relevant components, or the user himself being injured, thereby ensuring the performance of the air conditioner. Of course, in other embodiments, the magnet 300 can also be fixedly mounted to the outside of the display module, so as to facilitate replacement of the magnet 300 after demagnetization of the magnet 300.

[0048] In an embodiment, the magnetosensitive sensor 400 is detachably mounted to the shell 100. In this way, when the magnetosensitive sensor 400 is overhauled, the magnetosensitive sensor 400 can be conveniently detached from the shell 100, and when the magnetosensitive sensor 400 fails, the magnetosensitive sensor 400 can also be replaced alone, which is beneficial to reduce the cost and operation difficulty of maintenance of the air conditioner.

[0049] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the shell 100 is provided with a first limiting buckle 600, and the magnetosensitive sensor 400 is mounted between the shell 100 and the first limiting buckle 600. That is, the first limiting buckle 600 and the shell 100 have a space for mounting the magnetosensitive sensor 400, and the magnetosensitive sensor 400 is mounted therein and can be limited by the first limiting buckle 600, so that the magnetosensitive sensor 400 can be relatively stably mounted. Moreover, the first limiting buckle 600 has a deformation capability, and when the magnetosensitive sensor 400 is mounted or removed, the first limiting buckle 600 can be deformed to facilitate the magnetosensitive sensor 400 to enter or exit the space between the first limiting buckle 600 and the shell 100. Of course, in other embodiments, the magnetosensitive sensor 400 can also be connected to the shell 100 by screwing or screwing.

[0050] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the first limiting buckle 600 includes a first limiting portion 610 and a second limiting portion 620 protruding from the shell 100 and opposite to each other, an end of the first limiting portion 610 is provided with a first bending portion 630 facing the second limiting portion 620, an end of the second limiting portion 620 is provided with a second bending portion 640 facing the first limiting portion 610, the first bending portion 630 has a U-shaped structure with an opening facing the shell 100, and the second bending portion 640 is parallel to the distribution direction of the first limiting portion 610 and the second limiting portion 620.

[0051] It can be understood that the end of the first limiting portion 610 and the end of the second limiting portion 620 both refer to the end away from the shell 100, and the end of the first bending portion 630 refers to the end away from the first limiting portion 610, and the end of the second bending portion 640 refers to the end away from the second limiting portion 620.

[0052] In this embodiment, the end of the first bending portion 630 should be flush with the end of the second bending portion 640, so that both can be attached to the same side surface of the magnetic sensor 400. Of course, when the surface of the magnetic sensor 400 has a height difference, the end of the first bending portion 630 and the end of the second bending portion 640 can also be arranged non-flush, as long as the end of the first bending portion 630 and the end of the second bending portion 640 can be attached to the magnetic sensor 400 to ensure effective limiting of the magnetic sensor 400.

[0053] The first bending portion 630 is in a U-shaped structure, which is more easily deformed, so that the magnetic sensor 400 can be more easily installed between the first limiting buckle 600 and the shell 100, to improve the installation convenience of the magnetic sensor 400, and also facilitate increasing the limiting area of the magnetic sensor 400, thereby ensuring the limiting effect of the magnetic sensor 400.

[0054] Of course, in other embodiments, the first bending portion 630 and the second bending portion 640 can also be other structural forms.

[0055] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 2 to Figure 4 , the end of the first bending portion 630 is provided with a first inclined surface 631 on the side away from the first limiting portion 610, and the end of the second bending portion 640 is provided with a second inclined surface 641 on the side facing the magnetic sensor 400. Without loss of generality, when installing the magnetic sensor 400, one end of the magnetic sensor 400 can be inserted between the second bending portion 640 and the shell 100 at an angle, and the second inclined surface 641 can serve to avoid the magnetic sensor 400 and guide the insertion of the magnetic sensor 400. Then, the other end of the magnetic sensor 400 slides towards the shell 100 along the side of the first bending portion 630 away from the first limiting portion 610. In this process, the first bending portion 630 will deform until the end of the magnetic sensor 400 slides into the shell 100 and the first bending portion 630 under the guidance of the first inclined surface 631. In this way, the magnetic sensor 400 can be conveniently and quickly installed, which is conducive to improving the operation convenience of installing the magnetic sensor 400.

[0056] In an embodiment, the magnet 300 is detachably mounted on the display module. Thus, when the magnet 300 is maintained, the magnet 300 can be conveniently detached from the shell 100, and when the magnetic field strength of the magnet 300 is insufficient or the structure is damaged, the magnet 300 can be replaced alone, which is beneficial to reduce the cost and operation difficulty of maintaining the air conditioner.

[0057] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 2 , the display module comprises a shell 500 and a second limiting buckle 700 arranged on the shell 500, and the magnet 300 is mounted between the shell 500 and the second limiting buckle 700. That is, the second limiting buckle 700 and the shell 500 have a space for mounting the magnet 300, and the magnet 300 is mounted in the space and can be limited by the second limiting buckle 700, so that the magnet 300 can be relatively stably mounted. Moreover, the second limiting buckle 700 has a deformation ability, and when the magnet 300 is mounted or removed, the second limiting buckle 700 can be deformed to facilitate the magnet 300 to enter or exit the space between the second limiting buckle 700 and the shell 500. Of course, in other embodiments, the magnet 300 can be connected with the shell 500 by screwing or screwing.

[0058] The above description is only an exemplary embodiment of the present application, and does not limit the patent scope of the present application, and any equivalent structural transformation or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields within the technical concept of the present application is included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
