[0032] The following is for reference. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The structure of the pet air conditioner main unit according to an embodiment of the present utility model is described.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the pet air conditioner main unit structure according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes a housing 100 and an exhaust chamber 200.

[0034] The enclosure 100 has an inner cavity, with the front of the enclosure 100 facing the interior and the rear of the enclosure 100 facing the exterior. A detachable first rear cover plate 110 is provided on the rear side of the enclosure 100. An exhaust chamber 200 is located inside the enclosure 100. An air inlet 210 is provided on the front side of the exhaust chamber 200, and an exhaust outlet 220 is provided on the rear side of the exhaust chamber 200. The exhaust outlet 220 is located on the first rear cover plate 110. The exhaust chamber 200 has a main air inlet chamber 230 on the front side and several branch chambers 240 on the rear side. The main air inlet chamber 230 is connected to the air inlet 210 on the front side, and the branch chambers 240 are connected to the exhaust outlets 220 on the rear side. A filter 400 is built into the branch chambers 240.

[0035] For example, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the enclosure 100 has an internal cavity and is essentially fixed. The front of the enclosure 100 faces indoors, serving as the pet's space. The rear of the enclosure 100 faces outdoors, and a removable first rear cover 110 is provided on the rear side, allowing the user to install or remove it from the outside. An exhaust chamber 200 is located inside the enclosure 100. An air inlet 210 is located on the front of the exhaust chamber 200, and an exhaust outlet 220 is located on the rear side of the exhaust chamber 200, situated on the first rear cover 110. The exhaust chamber 200 contains a main air inlet chamber 230 on the front and several branch chambers 240 on the rear. The main air inlet chamber 230 communicates with the air inlet 210 on the front, and the branch chambers 240 communicate with the exhaust outlets 220 on the rear. Each branch chamber 240 contains a filter 400.

[0036] In actual operation, when the air conditioner of this invention is cooling, the air inlet 210 simultaneously draws in indoor air into the exhaust chamber 200. The airflow within the exhaust chamber 200 is branched from the main air inlet chamber 230 into various distribution chambers 240, where it is purified by corresponding filters 400 before being discharged outdoors through the exhaust port 220. This method of distributing the airflow through the air purification channel to each distribution chamber 240 for purification ensures more thorough air purification.

[0037] Since the required airflow for cooling indoor air is different from that for purifying indoor air, the airflow for air purification is usually less than that for cooling air to ensure sufficient purification. Therefore, the exhaust chamber 200 serves as the air purification channel for the indoor air, and operates independently from the air cooling channel for cooling the indoor air, ensuring that purification and cooling operations do not conflict with each other.

[0038] The user can replace the filter 400 after removing the first rear cover 110 outdoors.

[0039] In some embodiments of this utility model, an air inlet fan 211 is provided on the air inlet 210, which is responsible for the exhaust chamber 200 to extract air from the room.

[0040] In some embodiments of this utility model, a filter mounting bracket 500 is provided in the diversion chamber 240. The filter mounting bracket 500 includes a side column 510, a lower base frame 520 is provided on the lower side of the side column 510, and an upper elastic plate 530 is provided on the upper side of the side column 510. The lower base frame 520 and the upper elastic plate 530 cooperate to clamp the filter 400, which facilitates the installation of the filter 400.

[0041] In some embodiments of this utility model, the filter mounting bracket 500 is fixed in the diversion chamber 240 by screws.

[0042] In some embodiments of this utility model, a lower limiting recess 521 is provided on the upper side of the lower base frame 520, and an upper limiting recess 531 is provided on the lower side of the upper elastic plate 530. A lever 410 is provided on the upper and lower sides of the filter 400, respectively. The levers 410 on the upper and lower sides respectively engage the lower limiting recess 521 and the upper limiting recess 531, ensuring that the filter 400 is installed in the filter mounting bracket 500 without shifting and affecting the purification effect. Users can use their hands to hold the levers 410 to install and remove the filter 400.

[0043] In some embodiments of this utility model, the lever 410 includes a front fixing part 411 and a rear protruding part 412. The fixing part 411 is connected to the filter, and the protruding part 412 extends towards the rear of the filter. The protruding part 412 is designed to have a certain degree of elasticity. Users can pinch the protruding part 412 of the lever 410 to install or remove the filter 400, and it is easier to align and engage with the lower base frame 520 and the upper elastic plate 530.

[0044] In some embodiments of this utility model, a lower limiting plate 522 is provided on the front side of the lower base frame 520, and an upper limiting plate 532 is provided on the front side of the upper elastic plate 530. The lower limiting plate 522 and the upper limiting plate 532 respectively abut against the upper and lower sides of the front end of the filter 400, thereby limiting the filter 400 in the filter mounting bracket 500.

[0045] In some embodiments of this utility model, a condenser 600 is provided in the main air inlet chamber 230, so that the airflow entering the exhaust chamber 200 can be used to cool the refrigerant in the condenser 600.

[0046] In some embodiments of this utility model, a partition plate 130 is provided inside the housing 100, an exhaust chamber 200 is located above the partition plate 130, and a blowing chamber 300 is provided below the partition plate 130. An air intake 310 and an air outlet 320 are provided at the front of the blowing chamber 300. An air intake fan 311 is provided on the air intake 310, and an evaporator 700 and a humidifier 800 are provided inside the blowing chamber 300. The blowing chamber 300 serves as an air cooling channel. Hot air is drawn into the room through the air intake 310, then cooled by the evaporator 700 inside the blowing chamber, and humidified by the humidifier 800, forming an airflow with a suitable temperature and humidity for pets. Finally, the air is blown into the room through the air outlet 320.

[0047] In some embodiments of this utility model, a water tank 810 is provided at the rear of the air blowing chamber 300, and the water tank 810 is connected to the humidifier 800.

[0048] In some embodiments of this utility model, a control chamber 900 is provided inside the housing 100, and a compressor 910 and an expansion valve 920 are provided inside the control chamber 900. The compressor 910 and the expansion valve 920 operate inside the control chamber 900. A condenser 600 is provided inside the exhaust chamber 200. The compressor 910, condenser 600, expansion valve 920, and evaporator 700 are connected in sequence through pipelines to form a refrigeration working circuit. The compressor 910 compresses the gaseous refrigerant into a high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous state and sends it to the condenser 600 for cooling. After cooling, the refrigerant becomes a medium-temperature, high-pressure liquid. The expansion valve 920 throttles and reduces the pressure, resulting in a low-temperature, low-pressure gas-liquid mixture. This mixture then absorbs heat from the air and vaporizes in the evaporator 700, becoming gaseous again. It then returns to the compressor 910 for further compression, continuing the refrigeration cycle.

[0049] In some embodiments of this utility model, a second rear cover plate 120 is also provided on the rear side of the box 100, that is, the first rear cover plate 110 and the second rear cover plate 120 serve as the rear cover plate structure of the box 100.

[0050] In some embodiments of this utility model, vertical mounting plates 140 are provided on the upper and lower sides of the outer side wall of the housing 100. The vertical mounting plates 140 are provided with mounting holes 141, and screws can be installed in the mounting holes 141 to facilitate the air conditioner of this utility model to be fixedly installed in a predetermined position through the vertical mounting plates 140.

[0051] An air conditioning unit according to a second aspect of the present invention includes a pet air conditioning unit structure according to the first aspect of the present invention described above.

[0052] According to the embodiment of the present utility model, by adopting the above-mentioned pet air conditioner host structure, the thickness of the air conditioner host is reduced, which facilitates the miniaturization design of the air conditioner host. Moreover, it can improve the air purification effect of the air conditioner, enhance the user experience and the living environment of the pet.
