[0073] As shown in Figures 1-4 An embodiment of the present application provides an air conditioner indoor unit, comprising: a shell 1, wherein an indoor air outlet 11, an indoor air return 12, an outdoor air outlet 13 and an outdoor air inlet 14 are arranged on the shell 1, a fresh air channel is formed between the indoor air outlet 11 and the outdoor air inlet 14, and an exhaust air channel is formed between the indoor air return 12 and the outdoor air outlet 13.

[0074] Specifically, the shell 1 serves as a mounting body structure of the air conditioner indoor unit, and the indoor air outlet 11, the indoor air return 12, the outdoor air outlet 13 and the outdoor air inlet 14 are arranged on the shell 1 to meet the requirements of indoor and outdoor air flow.

[0075] Generally, the indoor air outlet 11 and the indoor air return 12 are formed on a first end surface of the shell 1, and the outdoor air outlet 13 and the outdoor air inlet 14 are formed on a second end surface of the shell 1, and the first end surface and the second end surface of the shell 1 are arranged back to back.

[0076] The air conditioner indoor unit comprises a total heat exchange core body 2 arranged in the shell 1, and the total heat exchange core body 2 is configured to exchange heat between the air flow passing through the fresh air channel and the air flow passing through the exhaust air channel.

[0077] Specifically, the total heat exchange core 2 is provided with an exhaust heat exchange channel and a fresh air heat exchange channel, and the exhaust heat exchange channel and the fresh air heat exchange channel conduct heat to each other; the indoor return air vent 12, the exhaust heat exchange channel, and the outdoor air outlet 13 form an exhaust channel in the outer shell 1, and the outdoor air inlet 14, the fresh air heat exchange channel, and the indoor air outlet 11 form a fresh air channel in the outer shell 1.

[0078] Heat exchanger 5, which is configured to perform heat exchange treatment on the airflow flowing through the fresh air duct.

[0079] Specifically, the heat exchanger 5 can perform heat exchange treatment on the airflow flowing through the fresh air duct, and the heat-treated airflow will be output to the room through the indoor air outlet 11.

[0080] Two fan assemblies 3, each fan assembly 3 including a mounting bracket 31 and a fan 32, the fan 32 being mounted on the mounting bracket 31; one fan assembly 3 is disposed in the fresh air duct, and the other fan assembly 3 is disposed in the exhaust air duct.

[0081] Specifically, two fan assemblies 3 are used to meet the driving requirements of indoor and outdoor air flow. One fan assembly 3 is disposed in the fresh air duct to allow fresh outdoor air to enter the housing 1, be heated by the total heat exchange core 2, and then be output from the indoor air outlet 11. The other fan assembly 3 is disposed in the exhaust air duct to allow stale indoor air to enter the housing 1, be heated by the total heat exchange core 2, and then be output from the outdoor air outlet 13.

[0082] In one embodiment of this application, in order to improve the ease of disassembly and assembly of the fan assembly 3, the installation method of the fan assembly 3 is structurally improved as follows.

[0083] like Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the top plate of the outer casing 1 is provided with two sets of assembly units, each set of assembly units including a support part 101 and a fixing part 102; the mounting bracket 31 is provided with a support mating part 313 and a fixing mating part 314; the support mating part 313 is screwlessly assembled onto the support part 101, and the fixing mating part 314 is fixedly connected to the fixing part 102 by screws.

[0084] Specifically, the fan 32 is fixedly mounted on the top plate of the housing 1 via a mounting bracket 31. The top plate of the housing 1 is provided with a support portion 101 and a fixing portion 102. Correspondingly, the mounting bracket 31 is provided with a support mating portion 313 and a fixing mating portion 314. The support portion 101 and the support mating portion 313 cooperate to achieve screwless assembly, while the fixing portion 102 and the fixing mating portion 314 cooperate to be installed using screws.

[0085] Thus, in the actual assembly process, the mounting bracket 31 is first installed by the bearing cooperation part 313 cooperating with the bearing part 101, and then the fixed cooperation part 314 is fixedly installed on the fixed part 102 by the screw.

[0086] Similarly, in the later maintenance process, the screw between the fixed part 102 and the fixed cooperation part 314 can be disassembled, then the bearing cooperation part 313 is separated from the bearing part 101, and the fan assembly 3 can be disassembled from the shell 1.

[0087] By providing two assembly units on the shell 1, the bearing part 101 in the assembly unit can satisfy the screwless connection with the bearing cooperation part 313 on the mounting bracket 31, and the fixed part 102 in the assembly unit can be connected with the fixed cooperation part 314 on the mounting bracket 31 by the screw. Thus, in the actual assembly process, the operator can reduce the amount of screws by cooperating the bearing cooperation part 313 with the bearing part 101, and only a small number of screws are needed to fixedly connect the fixed part 102 and the fixed cooperation part 314 together, so as to complete the assembly. Similarly, in the later maintenance process, the operator only needs to disassemble a small number of screws to disassemble the fan assembly 3 from the shell 1, thereby reducing the disassembly difficulty to improve the maintenance convenience.

[0088] In an embodiment, the bearing cooperation part 313 is slidably on the bearing part 101.

[0089] Specifically, the cooperation mode of the bearing cooperation part 313 and the bearing part 101 can adopt a sliding connection mode, and the specific cooperation structure can adopt a conventional sliding installation structure such as a sliding rail cooperating with a sliding groove.

[0090] Thus, in the assembly process, the bearing cooperation part 313 is slidably assembled to the bearing part 101, and then the fixed part 102 and the fixed cooperation part 314 are tightened and fixed by the screw.

[0091] In some embodiments, the performance entity of the fixed part 102 can be a screw hole, and the performance entity of the fixed cooperation part 314 can be a fixed hole, which will not be repeated and limited here.

[0092] In an embodiment, the bearing cooperation part 313 is overlapped on the bearing part 101.

[0093] Specifically, the cooperation mode of the bearing cooperation part 313 and the bearing part 101 can adopt an overlapping mode, and the specific cooperation structure can be that the bearing cooperation part 313 is an overlapping plate extending out of the mounting bracket 31, and the bearing part 101 can be a hanging plate formed on the top plate of the shell 1, and the overlapping plate is overlapped on the hanging plate.

[0094] In an embodiment, the bearing matching part 313 is inserted on the bearing part 101.

[0095] Specifically, the bearing matching part 313 and the bearing part 101 can be matched in the form of insertion. Specifically, the bearing matching part 313 is a plug plate extending out of the mounting bracket 31, and the bearing part 101 is a slot formed on the top plate of the shell 1, and the plug plate is inserted in the slot.

[0096] In an embodiment, in order to realize the compact design of the structure, two fan assemblies 3 are arranged side by side on one side of the shell 1.

[0097] A first partition plate 15 is arranged between the two fan assemblies 3, and the two sides of the first partition plate 15 are respectively provided with the assembly units. The first partition plate 15 is arranged between the side wall of the shell 1 and the total heat exchange core 2.

[0098] Specifically, the two fan assemblies 3 are arranged on the same side of the shell 1, which facilitates the quick assembly of the two fan assemblies 3 in the same direction during assembly. Moreover, the two fan assemblies 3 are spaced apart by the first partition plate 15, so that the two fan assemblies 3 do not affect each other during operation.

[0099] By arranging the two fan assemblies 3 on the same side of the shell 1 and spacing them apart by the first partition plate 15, the layout of the devices inside the shell 1 is more compact, so as to realize the compact design of the structure. At the same time, the first partition plate 15 isolates the two fan assemblies 3, thereby realizing the mutual isolation of the fresh air channel and the exhaust air channel, and ensuring that the air in and out of the shell 1 exchanges heat well and the air paths do not affect each other.

[0100] In an embodiment, the two fan assemblies 3 are arranged side by side between the indoor air outlet 11 and the outdoor air outlet 13.

[0101] The outlet of one of the fans 32 communicates with the outdoor air outlet 13, and the outlet of the other fan 32 communicates with the indoor air outlet 11.

[0102] Specifically, the two fan assemblies 3 are arranged on the same side of the shell 1 and located between the indoor air outlet 11 and the outdoor air outlet 13. In this way, the fan assembly 3 adjacent to the indoor air outlet 11 is used to drive the airflow to flow in the fresh air channel, and the fan assembly 3 adjacent to the outdoor air outlet 13 is used to drive the airflow to flow in the exhaust air channel.

[0103] By arranging the fan assembly 3 between the indoor air outlet 11 and the outdoor air outlet 13, the air output to the outdoor can be efficiently discharged to the outdoor through the outdoor air outlet 13 under the action of the corresponding fan 32, and the air output to the indoor can be efficiently delivered to the indoor under the action of the corresponding fan 32, so as to increase the air supply amount of the indoor, reduce the air outlet resistance of the fan 32, and improve the air supply efficiency.

[0104] In an embodiment, the heat exchanger 5 is arranged between the indoor air outlet 11 and the outlet of the corresponding fan 32.

[0105] Specifically, the heat exchanger 5 is arranged between the indoor air outlet 11 and the corresponding fan 32, so that the airflow output by the fan 32 directly blows to the heat exchanger 5.

[0106] By arranging the heat exchanger 5 between the indoor air outlet 11 and the outlet of the fan 32, the airflow output by the outlet of the fan 32 directly blows to the heat exchanger 5, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the airflow and the heat exchanger 5, and improving the heat exchange efficiency of the air conditioner indoor unit.

[0107] In an embodiment, the shell 1 is further provided with a partition plate 65, the partition plate 65 is provided with an air vent 651, the partition plate 65 covers the inner side of the indoor air outlet 11 in the interior of the shell 1, the partition plate 65 separates the indoor air outlet 11 and the indoor air return outlet 12, the indoor air outlet 11 is communicated with the outlet of the corresponding fan 32 through the air vent 651, and the heat exchanger 5 is located between the air vent 651 and the indoor air outlet 11.

[0108] Specifically, the partition plate 65 arranged in the shell 1 can surround a space for mounting the heat exchanger 5 at the outdoor air outlet 13, so as to facilitate mounting the heat exchanger 5 at the indoor air outlet 11, and ensure that the airflow flowing in the fresh air channel can be effectively heat exchanged with the heat exchanger 5.

[0109] By arranging the partition plate 65 in the shell 1 to separate the indoor air outlet 11 and the indoor air return outlet 12, the partition plate 65 covers the area of the indoor air outlet 11 to form a space for mounting the heat exchanger 5, so that the airflow generated by the corresponding fan 32 blows to the heat exchanger 5 for heat exchange through the air vent 651 and is then output from the indoor air outlet 11, so as to ensure that the airflow output from the indoor air outlet 11 is sufficiently heat exchanged, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency.

[0110] In an embodiment, the shell 1 is further provided with a second partition plate 16; the second partition plate 16 is arranged between the partition plate 65 and the total heat exchange core 2.

[0111] Specifically, by further setting a second partition plate 16 in the shell 1, the second partition plate 16 separates the exhaust air heat exchange channel and the fresh air heat exchange channel of the total heat exchange core 2 from each other in terms of the ports on the indoor side, so as to meet the installation requirements of the total heat exchange core 2.

[0112] Among them, in the four corners of the total heat exchange core 2, the corner towards the indoor side is separated by the second partition plate 16, the corner towards the fan assembly 3 side is separated by the first partition plate 15, and the other two corners of the total heat exchange core 2 can be connected to the corresponding side walls of the shell 1 in a conventional installation manner, so as to finally realize the mutual isolation of the exhaust air channel and the fresh air channel.

[0113] In an embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 5 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 , in order to improve the air supply efficiency of the fan 32, the air conditioner indoor unit is improved in the following structure.

[0114] The present application provides an air conditioner indoor unit, comprising: a shell 1, wherein an indoor air outlet 11, an indoor air return port 12, an outdoor air outlet 13 and an outdoor air inlet 14 are arranged on the shell 1, a fresh air channel is formed between the indoor air outlet 11 and the outdoor air inlet 14, and an exhaust air channel is formed between the indoor air return port 12 and the outdoor air outlet 13.

[0115] The air conditioner indoor unit comprises a total heat exchange core 2, wherein the total heat exchange core 2 is arranged in the shell 1, and the total heat exchange core 2 is configured to exchange heat between the air flow passing through the fresh air channel and the air flow passing through the exhaust air channel.

[0116] The air conditioner indoor unit comprises a heat exchanger 5, wherein the heat exchanger 5 is configured to exchange heat for the air flow passing through the fresh air channel.

[0117] The air conditioner indoor unit comprises two fan assemblies 3, wherein the fan assembly 3 comprises a mounting bracket 31 and a fan 32, the fan 32 is arranged on the mounting bracket 31; one of the fan assemblies 3 is arranged in the fresh air channel, and the other of the fan assemblies 3 is arranged in the exhaust air channel.

[0119] Specifically, for the fan assembly 3, the fan 32 can adopt a centrifugal fan and is fixedly installed on the top of the shell 1 through the mounting bracket 31. A space is formed between the mounting bracket 31 and the top plate of the shell 1, so that the air flow into and out of the total heat exchange core 2 will flow to the upper and lower surfaces of the mounting bracket 31 during the operation of the fan 32.

[0120] The ventilation gap 311 is arranged on the mounting bracket 31, and the upper and lower spaces of the mounting bracket 31 are communicated with each other through the ventilation gap 311. When the two inlets of the centrifugal fan have a large difference in air intake amount during the operation of the centrifugal fan, the air in the upper and lower layers of the mounting bracket 31 can flow alternately to automatically balance the air intake amount of the two inlets of the centrifugal fan.

[0121] The ventilation gap 311 is arranged on the mounting bracket 31, and the upper and lower spaces of the mounting bracket 31 are communicated with each other through the ventilation gap 311. Thus, during the operation of the fan 32, the air flow distribution amount of the two sides of the mounting bracket 31 can be balanced, so that the two side inlets of the fan 32 can more evenly intake air, thereby improving the air supply efficiency of the fan 32.

[0127] Specifically, in order to realize the requirement of compact installation of the components inside the shell 1, the installation support 31 is further provided with an avoiding gap 312. The design of the avoiding gap 312 enables the full heat exchange core 2 to be arranged closer to the fan 32 by using the position vacated by the avoiding gap 312, so as to realize the compact design of the structure inside the shell 1.

[0128] By providing the installation support 31 with the avoiding gap 312, the corner of the full heat exchange core 2 will be inserted into the area between the two fans 32 and connected with the first partition plate 15, so that the full heat exchange core 2 can be arranged closer to the fan 32, and the distribution of the components in the shell 1 is more compact, which is more conducive to the design requirement of compact overall structure, so as to reduce the overall volume of the shell 1.

[0129] At the same time, since the full heat exchange core 2 is closer to the inlet of the fan 32, it is more conducive to improve the negative pressure at the heat exchange core, so as to accelerate the flow speed of the airflow in the full heat exchange core 2.
