Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and more specifically, to a vertical air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] Air conditioners are widely used for indoor temperature regulation. In existing air conditioners, a deflector is typically installed at the air outlet to guide the airflow direction. Some air conditioners also have a zero-airflow deflector at the air outlet to disperse the airflow. During operation, the zero-airflow deflector closes the air outlet to regulate the airflow to zero airflow. However, in existing air conditioners where the airflow guiding structure includes both a deflector and a zero-airflow deflector, for situations where the air conditioner only needs direct airflow, the zero-airflow deflector can interfere with the adjustment of the deflector's position, affecting the deflector's guiding angle. Simultaneously, the zero-airflow deflector can obstruct airflow within the duct, affecting the effective airflow area and volume, thus impacting the air conditioner's temperature regulation effect on the indoor environment. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a vertical air conditioner to solve the technical problem that in existing air conditioners, the zero-air plate interferes with the adjustment of the air outlet and the air guide plate, thus affecting the air conditioner's ability to regulate indoor temperature.

[0004] To solve the above problems, this utility model provides a vertical air conditioner, including a shell with an internal air duct. The front panel of the shell is provided with two air outlets. The two air outlets are separated by a flow divider cone and arranged at intervals in the left and right direction. The flow divider cone is provided with a receiving cavity and two inlets communicating with the receiving cavity. The two inlets correspond one-to-one with the two air outlets.

[0005] The vertical air conditioner also includes two sets of air guiding structures corresponding one-to-one with the two air outlets. The air guiding structure includes a main air guide plate and a zero air guide plate, each independently rotatable around a vertical axis and connected to the housing. The main air guide plate is configured to be rotatable to open or close the corresponding air outlet. The zero air guide plate has a diffuser structure and is configured to be rotatable toward the diverter cone to be inserted into and accommodated in the accommodating cavity through the corresponding inlet; or to rotate away from the diverter cone to block at least a partial area of ​​the corresponding air outlet.

[0006] In the vertical air conditioner provided by this utility model, when the vertical air conditioner is running and only direct airflow is required, the zero-air vane rotates and hides within the housing cavity, effectively reducing interference with the rotation of the main air vane, thereby ensuring smooth and precise adjustment of the main air vane's airflow angle; and effectively reducing obstruction of airflow within the duct, thereby ensuring the effective air outlet area, air volume, and air velocity of the duct, thus enabling the vertical air conditioner to achieve rapid temperature regulation of the target area; furthermore, when the vertical air conditioner is in the off, standby, or when only direct airflow is required, the zero-air vane can rotate and hide. The diverter cone, positioned within the containment cavity, acts as an isolation and protection mechanism with the zero-air vane, reducing dust accumulation and blockage of the airflow structure, thus ensuring effective airflow dispersion. Furthermore, the main air vane and zero-air vane can rotate relatively independently, allowing for flexible adjustment of their rotation angles according to user needs. This enables the main air vane and zero-air vane to work together to adjust the airflow pattern (direct or zero airflow), or to adjust the airflow direction via the main air vane, thereby enhancing the flexibility and versatility of the vertical air conditioner's airflow pattern and direction adjustment.

[0007] Optionally, the flow divider cone includes a front partition connected to the front panel, with a left flow divider and a right flow divider connected to the left and right ends of the front partition, respectively. The left flow divider and the right flow divider extend from front to back toward each other and dock. The front partition, the left flow divider, and the right flow divider form the receiving cavity, and the two insertion ports are located at the left and right end areas of the front partition.

[0008] Optionally, the end of the zero-air plate facing the diverter cone is slidably inserted into the socket, and the end of the zero-air plate located inside the socket is bent with a stop flange, the stop flange being configured to abut against the inner end face of the socket to restrict the zero-air plate from being pulled out of the socket.

[0009] Optionally, a guide seat is connected to one side of the main airflow plate. The guide seat includes a connecting part disposed on the main airflow plate and a guide airflow plate connected to the connecting part. An airflow channel is formed between the guide airflow plate and the main airflow plate, and the included angle between the guide airflow plate and the main airflow plate is in the range of 0° to 20°.

[0010] Optionally, the housing is provided with a support arm, which is hinged to the connecting part via a vertical hinge axis.

[0011] Optionally, the vertical air conditioner has a closed mode, in which the zero-air plate is housed in the receiving cavity in each of the air guiding structures, and the main air guiding plate closes the corresponding air outlet.

[0012] Optionally, the vertical air conditioner has a zero-wind mode. In the zero-wind mode, in each of the air guiding structures, the main air guide plate is opened and forms a zero-wind channel with the diverting cone. The zero-wind plate blocks the air outlet located in the air outlet area between the main air guide plate and the diverting cone.

[0013] Optionally, in the zero-wind mode, the main air vane and the air duct are located on the same side of the air duct sidewall to form a first direct blowing channel;

[0014] Alternatively, the rear end of the main airflow plate abuts against the sidewall of the airflow duct located on the same side.

[0015] Optionally, the vertical air conditioner has a conventional air outlet mode. In the conventional air outlet mode, in each of the air guide structures, the zero air plate is housed in the housing cavity, and the main air plate is opened to form a second direct blowing channel with the diverting cone.

[0016] Optionally, in the conventional air outlet mode, a third direct blowing channel is formed between the main air vane and the sidewall of the air duct on the same side; or, the rear end of the main air vane is adjacent to the sidewall of the air duct on the same side.

[0017] Optionally, the mid-plane of the region between the two air guiding structures is used as a reference plane, and in the conventional air outlet mode, the angle between each of the main air guide vanes and the reference plane ranges from 0° to 20°.

Detailed Implementation

[0034] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this utility model and are not intended to limit it.

[0035] This embodiment provides a vertical air conditioner, such as... Figures 1-7 As shown, the unit includes a housing 100 with an internal air duct 120. The front panel 110 of the housing 100 has two air outlets 130, which are separated by a flow divider cone 200 and spaced apart in a left-right direction. The flow divider cone 200 has a receiving cavity 250 and two inlets 240 communicating with the receiving cavity 250. Each inlet 240 corresponds to one of the two air outlets 130. The vertical air conditioner also includes two sets of air guiding structures 30A, each corresponding to one of the two air outlets 130. Structure 30A includes a main air vane 300 and a zero air vane 400, each rotatably connected to the housing 100 about a vertical axis. The main air vane 300 is configured to be rotatable to open or close a corresponding air outlet 130. The zero air vane 400 has a diffuser structure 410 and is configured to be rotatable toward the diversion cone 200 to be inserted through a corresponding slot 240 and accommodated in the receiving cavity 250; or to rotate away from the diversion cone 200 to block at least a partial area of ​​the corresponding air outlet 130.

[0036] In the vertical air conditioner provided in this embodiment, the housing 100 serves as the mounting base and forms an air duct 120 for airflow. The diverter cone 200 is located in the front end region of the air duct 120 and in the middle of the air duct 120 in the left-right direction, dividing the air duct 120 outlet at the front end of the air duct 120 into two air outlets 130 on the left and right. In addition to diverting the airflow of the air duct 120 to the two air outlets 130, the diverter cone 200 also has a receiving cavity 250 formed inside it that can accommodate the zero-air plate 400. In the air guiding structure 30A, a diffuser structure 410 is provided on the zero-air plate 400. When the airflow passes through the surface of the zero-air plate 400, the surface of the zero-air plate 400 can guide the airflow. When the airflow passes through the diffuser structure 410, the diffuser structure 410 can disperse the airflow to form a zero-airflow with a relatively gentle wind speed and better noise reduction. The end of the zero-air plate 400 facing the diversion cone 200 can be inserted into the receiving cavity 2 through the inlet 240 on the same side. Within 50, the zero-air panel 400 is concealed and effectively avoided, thereby reducing the space occupied by the zero-air panel 400 in the air duct 120, the obstruction of airflow, and the occurrence of dust blockage in the air distribution structure 410 of the zero-air panel 400; or the zero-air panel 400 can be rotated away from the diversion cone 200 and partially or completely pulled out of the accommodating cavity 250 to block part or all of the air outlet 130, thereby dispersing the airflow passing through the air distribution structure 410.

[0037] In use, the main air guide plate 300 and the zero air guide plate 400 are rotatably connected to the housing 100 via a coaxial or non-coaxial vertical rotating shaft. The main air guide plate 300 and the zero air guide plate 400 can rotate relatively independently under the drive of their respective driving components, allowing for flexible adjustment of their rotation angles and their mating positions. This, in turn, flexibly adjusts the airflow characteristics of the air guide structure 30A. Specifically:

[0038] When the vertical air conditioner is in the off or standby state, in each air guide structure 30A, the end of the zero-air vane 400 facing the flow divider cone 200 is inserted into the socket 240 on the same side, and continues to rotate towards the flow divider cone 200, as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, until the zero-air plate 400 is almost completely contained within the accommodating cavity 250, it can not only reduce the interference caused by the rotation of the main air plate 300, but also the diverter cone 200 can isolate the zero-air plate 400 to reduce the occurrence of dust accumulation on the air distribution structure 410 and causing blockage. When the main air plate 300 rotates to the position of closing the air outlet 130, the vertical air conditioner enters the closed mode, and the main air plate 300 closes the air outlet end of the air duct 120 in the closed mode, which can reduce the occurrence of dust, impurities and other contaminants entering the housing 100 through the air outlet 130 and causing pollution or even damage to the internal components.

[0039] When the air conditioner is in operation, the rotation angle of the main air vane 300 and the zero air vane 400 can be flexibly adjusted according to the user's needs, so that the main air vane 300 and the zero air vane 400 cooperate to adjust the airflow pattern of direct airflow or zero airflow, and the airflow direction can be adjusted by the main air vane 300, thereby improving the flexibility and diversity of the airflow pattern and direction adjustment of the vertical air conditioner.

[0040] For example, when a user needs to quickly adjust the temperature of the vertical air conditioner, the zero-air vane 400 rotates toward the diverter cone 200 and is housed within the receiving cavity 250 to reduce interference with the rotation of the main air vane 300; the main air vane 300 rotates to open the air outlet 130 and extends from the rear to the front at a preset angle, with the air outlet 130 in an open state, such as... Figures 5-10 As shown, when the vertical air conditioner enters the direct air blowing mode, the airflow in the air duct 120 can be blown outwards along the target direction under the guidance of the main air deflector 300. During the outward blowing of the airflow, the zero air deflector 400 is hidden and avoided in the accommodating cavity 250, so as not to obstruct the flow of airflow in the air duct 120, thereby ensuring the effective air outlet area of ​​the air outlet 130, ensuring its air volume and air speed, and thus achieving the effect of rapid temperature regulation of the target area by the vertical air conditioner.

[0041] When the user requires gentle, quiet temperature adjustment, the main air deflector 300 can rotate to open the air outlet 130 and avoid the position of the zero-air deflector 400. The zero-air deflector 400 can rotate away from the diverter cone 200 and out of the receiving cavity 250 to completely block the air outlet 130; or, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the main air deflector 300 rotates to close off a portion of the air outlet 130's air outlet area, while the zero-air deflector 400 can rotate away from the diversion cone 200 to exit the receiving cavity 250, thus blocking the remaining air outlet area of ​​the air outlet 130. In both cases, the vertical air conditioner enters the zero-air mode, and the airflow in the duct 120 needs to pass through the air diffuser structure 410 of the zero-air deflector 400 before it can be blown out. After the airflow is dispersed by the air diffuser structure 410, a zero-air area with a gentle wind speed and better noise reduction is formed in front of the vertical air conditioner. This improves the gentleness and quietness of temperature regulation while ensuring the vertical air conditioner's effect on regulating the indoor temperature.

[0042] In the vertical air conditioner provided in this embodiment, when the vertical air conditioner is running and only direct airflow is required, the zero-air deflector 400 rotates and hides within the accommodating cavity 250, effectively reducing interference with the rotation of the main air deflector 300, thereby ensuring smooth and precise adjustment of the air guiding angle of the main air deflector 300; and effectively reducing obstruction of airflow within the duct 120, thereby ensuring the effective air outlet area, air volume, and air velocity of the duct 120, thus enabling the vertical air conditioner to achieve rapid temperature regulation of the target area; furthermore, when the vertical air conditioner is in the off, standby, or only direct airflow is required, the zero-air deflector 400 can rotate and hide within the accommodating cavity. Within 250mm, the diversion cone 200, along with the zero-air vane 400, can provide isolation and protection, reducing dust accumulation on the air distribution structure 410 and preventing blockages, thus ensuring effective air dispersion by the air distribution structure 410. Furthermore, the main air vane 300 and the zero-air vane 400 can rotate relatively independently, allowing for flexible adjustment of their rotation angles according to user needs. This enables the main air vane 300 and the zero-air vane 400 to work together to adjust the airflow pattern (direct or zero airflow), or to adjust the airflow direction via the main air vane 300, thereby improving the flexibility and versatility of the vertical air conditioner's airflow pattern and direction adjustment.

[0043] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the flow divider cone 200 includes a front partition 210 connected to the front panel 110. The left and right ends of the front partition 210 are respectively connected to a left flow divider 220 and a right flow divider 230. The left flow divider 220 and the right flow divider 230 extend from front to back toward each other and dock with each other. The front partition 210, the left flow divider 220 and the right flow divider 230 form a receiving cavity 250. Two inlets 240 are located at the left and right end areas of the front partition 210. The diversion cone 200 is specifically formed by a front partition 210, a left diversion plate 220, and a right diversion plate 230. The front partition 210 is connected to the front panel 110 and is preferably integrally formed with the front panel 110. The front surface of the front partition 210 is coplanar with the front surface of the front panel 110 to improve the neatness of the air conditioner's appearance. The left diversion plate 220 and the right diversion plate 230 are cone-shaped from front to back, and the rear end connection of the left diversion plate 220 and the right diversion plate 230 forms a corner facing into the air duct 120. When the airflow in the air duct 120 flows to the corner of the diversion cone 200, it will be divided into two airflows. One airflow flows to the left air outlet 130 under the guidance of the left diversion plate 220, and the other airflow flows to the right air outlet 130 under the guidance of the right diversion plate 230, thereby achieving the diversion of airflow in the air duct 120.

[0044] The front partition 210, left diverter 220, and right diverter 230 form a cavity 250 within the partition 210 through a simple structure. Two inlets 240 are located on the left and right sides of the front partition 210, respectively. In use, the zero-air plate 400 can be inserted into the cavity 250 through the inlet 240 on the same side, thereby making full use of the front-to-back space of the cavity 250 and improving the tightness of the fit between the zero-air plate 400 and the diverter cone 200. At the same time, when the zero-air plate 400 is rotated out of the cavity 250, it is located close to the front partition 210 and the air outlet 130 in the front-to-back direction. In zero-air mode, the zero-air plate 400 is exposed, and the user can also see the zero-air plate 400 directly to confirm that the vertical air conditioner has entered the zero-air mode, thereby improving the ease of use of the vertical air conditioner.

[0045] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the end of the zero-air plate 400 facing the diversion cone 200 is slidably inserted into the socket 240, and the end of the zero-air plate 400 located inside the socket 240 is bent with a stop flange 420. The stop flange 420 is configured to abut against the inner end face of the socket 240 to restrict the zero-air plate 400 from being pulled out of the socket 240. One end of the zero-air plate 400 is inserted into the receiving cavity 250 through the socket 240. When entering the zero-air mode, the zero-air plate 400 rotates away from the diverter cone 200 until the stop flange 420 abuts against the inner end face of the socket 240. The zero-air plate 400 rotates to its maximum stroke, which can block all the air outlets 130 or block the air outlet area of ​​the air outlet 130 near the diverter cone 200, so as to disperse the airflow. After the zero-air mode ends, the zero-air plate 400 rotates towards the diverter cone 200. The rear end of the zero-air plate 400 is kept inserted into the socket 240 under the stop action of the stop flange 420, so that it can be smoothly inserted into the receiving cavity 250 along the socket 240. This ensures that the zero-air plate 400 can smoothly enter the receiving cavity 250 and reduces the occurrence of the zero-air plate 400 dislodging from the socket 240 and being unable to be inserted.

[0046] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, a guide seat 310 is connected to one side of the main air deflector 300. The guide seat 310 includes a connecting part 311 provided on the main air deflector 300 and a guide air deflector 312 connected to the connecting part 311. An air guiding channel 70A is formed between the guide air deflector 312 and the main air deflector 300, and the included angle between the guide air deflector 312 and the main air deflector 300 is in the range of 0° to 20°. On the one hand, the guide seat 310 can strengthen the main air vane 300, thereby increasing its vertical strength and reducing bending deformation. On the other hand, the auxiliary air vane 312 and the main air vane 300 are arranged laterally at intervals, and their extension directions are consistent. They form an air guide channel 70A with a guide direction that is approximately the same as that of the main air vane 300. When the main air vane 300 needs to guide the airflow, the auxiliary air vane 312 rotates synchronously with the main air vane 300. As the airflow passes through the air outlet 130, it can be guided by both the main air vane 300 and the auxiliary air vane 312, thereby further improving the airflow guidance and direction adjustment effect.

[0047] Specifically, there can be multiple guide seats 310, which are arranged vertically at intervals on the main airflow plate 300, or each pair of adjacent guide seats 310 shares a connecting part 311 on their adjacent sides.

[0048] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the housing 100 is provided with a support arm 140, which is hinged to the connecting part 311 via a vertical hinge shaft 141. The hinge shaft 141 is coaxial with the vertical axis of rotation of the main air vane 300, and the support arm 140 can support and limit the main air vane 300 via the connecting part 311 to improve the stability of the main air vane 300 rotatably connected to the housing 100. Specifically, the top and bottom ends of the main air vane 300 are rotatably connected to the housing 100 via a vertical rotation shaft. There are multiple guide seats 310 arranged vertically at different positions on the main air vane 300. A support arm 140 is provided between every two adjacent guide seats 310. The support arm 140 is hinged to the upper and lower connecting parts 311 via the hinge shaft 141, thereby improving the support stability of the main air vane 300 at different vertical positions and further ensuring the stability and positional accuracy of the main air vane 300 rotatably connected to the housing 100.

[0049] Specifically, such as Figure 6 and Figure 9As shown, the main air deflector 300 can rotate around the corresponding vertical axis under the drive of the first driving member 500, and the zero air deflector 400 can rotate around the corresponding vertical axis under the drive of the second driving member 600. The first driving member 500 and the second driving member 600 are disposed in the housing 100, and can be motors. The side of the zero air deflector 400 away from the diverting cone 200 can be fixedly connected to a rotating ear 430. The second driving member 600 is connected to the rotating ear 430 and drives the zero air deflector 400 to rotate through the rotating ear 430. In this case, the cone sidewall 270 of the diverting cone 200 is provided with a relief groove 260 communicating with the insertion port 240 to prevent the diverting cone 200 from interfering with the rotating ear 430 and to ensure the smooth rotation of the zero air deflector 400.

[0050] As described above, the vertical air conditioner provided in this embodiment includes closed mode, direct blowing mode and zero wind mode according to the different orientations and combinations of the main air vane 300 and the zero wind vane 400. In the direct blowing mode, it is further divided into conventional air outlet mode and wide-angle mode according to the different air guiding angle range of the main air vane 300.

[0051] When the floor-standing air conditioner is in a powered-off or standby state, it enters a closed mode. In this closed mode, in each air guide structure 30A, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the zero-air plate 400 is housed in the receiving cavity 250, and the main air plate 300 closes the corresponding air outlet 130, thereby closing the air outlet end of the air duct 120 to reduce the occurrence of dust, impurities, etc. entering the housing 100 through the air outlet 130, causing pollution or even damage to the internal components.

[0052] When the vertical air conditioner is in closed mode, the outer wall of the main air deflector 300 is smoothly connected to the outer wall of the casing 100 to improve the overall flatness and integrity of the vertical air conditioner when it is off or in standby mode.

[0053] In this embodiment, as Figures 1-4 As shown, the diversion cone 200 is located at the front end of the duct section 120 and at the middle of the duct section along the left-right direction, thus dividing the duct section into two branch ducts 150 located on the left and right sides respectively. Specifically, the branch duct 150 on the left is defined by the duct sidewall 121 on the left side of the duct 120 and the left diversion plate 220 of the diversion cone 200, and the branch duct 150 on the right is defined by the duct sidewall 121 on the right side of the duct 120 and the right diversion plate 230 of the diversion cone 200. Two air outlets 130 are respectively connected to the front end of the branch duct 150 on the same side, and two sets of air guiding structures 30A correspond one-to-one with the two branch ducts 150. The two air outlets 130 can be rectangular. The outlines of the main air vane 300 and the zero air vane 400 are approximately rectangular, and the horizontal width of the main air vane 300 is greater than the horizontal width of the zero air vane 400.

[0054] When users require gentle, quiet temperature adjustment, the floor-standing air conditioner enters zero-wind mode. In zero-wind mode, such as... Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in each air guiding structure 30A, the main air guide plate 300 opens and forms a zero-air passage 70B between it and the diversion cone 200, and the zero-air plate 400 blocks the air outlet 130 located in the air outlet area between the main air guide plate 300 and the diversion cone 200. In each air guiding structure 30A, the width of the main air guide plate 300 is greater than the width of the zero air plate 400, and the main air guide plate 300 is located on the side of the zero air plate 400 away from the diversion cone 200. In zero air mode, the zero air plate 400 is sandwiched between the main air guide plate 300 and the diversion cone 200. The airflow of the air duct 120 enters the two branch air ducts 150 after being diverted by the diversion cone 200, and then enters the zero air channel 70B. Under the guidance of the zero air channel 70B, it flows to the zero air plate 400. After being dispersed by the air diffusion structure 410, it is blown forward. In front of the zero air plate 400, that is, in the middle area of ​​the front of the vertical air conditioner in the left and right directions, a zero air area with a gentle wind speed and better noise effect is formed. Thus, while ensuring the temperature regulation effect of the vertical air conditioner on the indoor environment, especially the temperature regulation effect in the middle area in front of the vertical air conditioner, the temperature regulation effect is improved and the noise effect is enhanced.

[0055] Specifically, in zero-wind mode, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the main air vane 300 and the air duct 120 are located on the same side of the air duct sidewall 121 to form a first direct-flow channel 70C. Within each branch air duct 150, the zero-air channel 70B and the first direct-flow channel 70C are arranged sequentially in a direction away from the diversion cone 200. Correspondingly, the airflow entering the branch air duct 150 is further diverted and enters the zero-air channel 70B and the first direct-flow channel 70C respectively. The airflow entering the zero-air channel 70B is dispersed by the diffuser structure 410 and then blown out, forming a zero-air area with a gentle flow and good noise reduction in front of the zero-air vane 400. The airflow entering the first direct-flow channel 70C is guided by the main air vane 300 and the air duct sidewall 121. When the air is blown outwards to form a direct airflow area, in this zero-wind mode, the central area in front of the vertical air conditioner near the split cone 200 forms a zero-wind area, while the areas near the left and right sides form direct airflow areas. Correspondingly, the zero-wind area in the central area in front of the vertical air conditioner has a higher level of comfort, while the direct airflow areas on the left and right sides can simultaneously ensure the temperature regulation effect of the vertical air conditioner on the indoor environment. This zero-wind mode is especially suitable for scenarios where users have high requirements for temperature regulation and are located in the central area in front of the vertical air conditioner, where the user's comfort level is also high.

[0056] In zero-wind mode, in addition to forming the first direct-blowing channel 70C with the sidewall 121 of the same side as the air duct, the rear end of the main air vane 300 can also be adjacent to the sidewall 121 of the same side as the air duct 120. "The rear end of the main air vane 300 is adjacent to the sidewall 121 of the same side" means that the rear end of the main air vane 300 abuts against the sidewall 121 of the same side, or there is a small gap of 0.1mm to 5mm between the rear end of the main air vane 300 and the sidewall 121 of the same side. Then, the airflow entering the branch air duct 150 can flow into the zero-wind channel 70B, and after being dispersed by the diffuser structure 410, it is blown outwards. This creates a zero-wind area in the central region near the split cone 200 in front of the vertical air conditioner. While ensuring the temperature regulation effect of the vertical air conditioner on the indoor environment, it reduces and avoids direct airflow, improving the quietness. This zero-wind mode is especially suitable for users sleeping at night.

[0057] In the zero-wind mode, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the front end of each main air deflector 300 extends outward to the air outlet 130. The plates of the zero air deflector 400 extending outward from the two main air deflectors 300 can guide and deliver the zero air blown out by the zero air deflector 400, thereby increasing the forward air delivery distance of the zero air and correspondingly improving the temperature regulation effect of the vertical air conditioner on the front area.

[0058] In this embodiment, when a user needs the vertical air conditioner to quickly adjust the temperature directly in front of it, the vertical air conditioner can enter the normal air outlet mode. In the normal air outlet mode, in each air guide structure 30A, the zero-air vane 400 is housed in the accommodating cavity 250, and the main air vane 300 is opened to form a second direct-blowing channel 70D between it and the diverting cone 200. During operation, the zero-air vane 400 is hidden and avoids obstruction within the accommodating cavity 250, thus having no obstruction effect on the airflow passing through the branch air duct 150; the airflow entering the branch air duct 150 can enter the second direct-blowing channel 70D and be blown forward directly under the guidance of the main air vane 300 and the diverting cone 200, thereby forming a direct-blowing area in the central region in front of the vertical air conditioner near the diverting cone 200, thereby achieving rapid temperature adjustment of the area directly in front of the vertical air conditioner.

[0059] Specifically, in the normal air supply mode, such as Figures 5-7As shown, the main air vane 300 and the air duct 120 are located on the same side of the air duct sidewall 121 to form a third direct blowing channel 70E. When the main air vane 300 is provided with a guide seat 310 on the side away from the diversion cone 200, the area between the auxiliary air vane 312 and the main air vane 300 in the third direct blowing channel 70E serves as the guide channel 70A. The airflow entering the branch channel is diverted into the channel area on the side of the second direct blowing channel 70D, the guide channel 70A, and the third direct blowing channel 70E. The entire area of ​​the air outlet 130 is the effective air outlet area, so under the guidance of the three channels, the air is blown forward directly, and the resulting direct blowing area is relatively large, which further improves the temperature regulation effect of the vertical air conditioner on the indoor environment. This conventional air outlet mode is especially suitable for scenarios where the indoor space is large and requires rapid temperature regulation.

[0060] In the normal air outlet mode, in addition to forming a third direct-blowing channel 70E between the main air deflector 300 and the duct sidewall 121, the rear end of the main air deflector 300 can also be adjacent to the duct sidewall 121 on the same side as the duct 120. The rear end of the main air deflector 300 abuts against the duct sidewall 121 on the same side, or there is a small gap of 0.1mm to 5mm between the rear end of the main air deflector 300 and the duct sidewall 121 on the same side. The airflow entering the branch duct 150 can only be blown forward directly through the second direct-blowing channel 70D, thus forming a direct-blowing area only in the central region in front of the vertical air conditioner. This normal air outlet mode is particularly suitable for scenarios where users need to quickly adjust the temperature of a small area directly in front of the vertical air conditioner.

[0061] Among them, such as Figure 7 As shown, the mid-section of the area between the two air guide structures 30A is used as the reference plane 70G. That is, one of the vertical planes perpendicular to the left and right direction and located between the two air guide structures 30A is used as the reference plane 70G. In the normal air outlet mode, the angle β between each main air guide plate 300 and the reference plane 70G ranges from 0° to 20°. In each air guiding structure 30A, the main air guide plate 300 can be tilted from back to front away from the reference plane 70G by 0° to 20° to form an angle with the reference plane 70G with the opening facing forward; or, the main air guide plate 300 can be tilted from back to front toward the reference plane 70G by 0° to 20° to form an angle with the reference plane 70G with the opening facing backward; if the tilt angle of the main air guide plate 300 relative to the reference plane 70G to the left and right sides is less than 20°, then the second direct blowing channel 70D formed between the main air guide plate 300 and the diversion cone 200 and the third direct blowing channel 70E formed between the main air guide plate 300 and the side wall 121 of the same side of the air duct both extend forward, and the tilt angle from back to front to the left and right sides is less than 20°, thereby forming a direct blowing area in the front area of ​​the vertical air conditioner, and correspondingly realizing rapid temperature adjustment of the front area of ​​the vertical air conditioner.

[0062] Specifically, the two air outlets 130 and the two air guide structures 30A are symmetrically arranged in the left and right directions about the symmetrical plane, and the aforementioned symmetrical plane can be selected as the reference plane 70G.

[0063] In this embodiment, when the indoor space requires rapid temperature adjustment, the floor-standing air conditioner can enter wide-angle mode. In wide-angle mode, such as... Figures 8-10 As shown, in each air guiding structure 30A, the zero-wind plate 400 is housed in the accommodating cavity 250, the main air guiding plate 300 is inclined from back to front away from the diversion cone 200, and the main air guiding plate 300 and the air duct 120 are located on the same side of the air duct sidewall 121 to form a fourth direct blowing channel 70F; the mid-dividing surface of the area between the two air guiding structures 30A is used as the reference plane 70G. In the wide-angle mode, the angle α between each main air guiding plate 300 and the reference plane 70G ranges from 60° to 80°. The zero-air vane 400 is hidden and avoided within the accommodating cavity 250. The main air vane 300 is tilted from back to front away from the reference plane 70G with a large tilting degree. Correspondingly, the main air vane 300 and the side wall 121 of the same side form a fourth direct blowing channel 70F, which is tilted from back to front away from the diversion cone 200 at a large tilting angle. The airflow entering the branch air ducts 150 on the left and right sides can enter the fourth direct blowing channel 70F and be tilted and blown out to the left and right sides of the vertical air conditioner along the fourth direct blowing channel 70F, thereby forming a direct blowing area with a large wide angle range in the left and right direction in front of the vertical air conditioner, thereby realizing rapid temperature adjustment of the indoor environment with a large temperature adjustment range.

[0064] In wide-angle mode, such as Figures 8-10 As shown, when a user is located directly in front of the vertical air conditioner and does not want to be directly blown on, in the air guiding structure 30A, the rear end of the main air vane 300 is adjacent to the cone sidewall 270 of the diversion cone 200. During operation, the rear end of the main air vane 300 abuts against the cone sidewall 270 on the corresponding side of the diversion cone 200, or there is a small gap of 0.1mm to 5mm between the rear end of the main air vane 300 and the cone sidewall 270 on the corresponding side of the diversion cone 200; the airflow entering the branch duct 150 can only be blown outward through the fourth direct blowing channel 70F, thereby increasing the direct airflow volume of the first direct blowing channel 70C, i.e., the vertical air conditioner in wide-angle mode, to the wide-angle areas on both sides, and correspondingly improving the wide-angle temperature regulation effect; at the same time, the central area of ​​the vertical air conditioner between the two main air vanes 300 is a windless area, and this area does not blow directly on the user, to ensure the user's comfort.

[0065] In wide-angle mode, in addition to the rear end adjacent to the same side of the duct wall 121, the main air vane 300 can also form a fifth direct-blowing channel with the cone side wall 270 of the split cone 200. Within the branch duct 150, the fifth direct-blowing channel is located near the center of the vertical air conditioner, while the fourth direct-blowing channel 70F is located near the outer left-right direction of the vertical air conditioner and has a large outward tilt angle. The airflow entering the branch duct 150 can simultaneously pass through both the fourth and fifth direct-blowing channels and be blown outwards, thus forming a wide-angle direct-blowing area in front of the vertical air conditioner. Simultaneously, in this wide-angle mode, the air outlet area of ​​the branch duct 150 is approximately equal to the air outlet area of ​​the air outlet 130, meaning that the single-sided air outlet area of ​​the vertical air conditioner is maximized in this mode. This ensures the airflow volume to the left and right sides of the vertical air conditioner in this mode, correspondingly ensuring the wide-angle air outlet range and temperature regulation effect of the vertical air conditioner, achieving rapid temperature regulation for all areas of the indoor environment.

[0066] Specifically, in wide-angle mode, such as Figure 10 As shown, the angle α between each main air deflector 300 and the reference plane 70G ranges from 72° to 78°. Each main air deflector 300 is inclined from back to front away from the reference plane 70G, forming an angle with the reference plane 70G with the opening facing forward, and the angle α ranges from 72° to 78°, preferably 75°. The reference plane 70G is a vertical plane extending in the front-to-back direction and located between the two air guiding structures 30A. In wide-angle mode, the deflection angle α of the left main air vane 300 relative to the reference plane 70G is in the range of 72° to 78°, and the deflection angle α of the right main air vane 300 relative to the reference plane 70G is in the range of 72° to 78°. Therefore, the angle range between the two main air vanes 300 is 144° to 156°. Correspondingly, the wide-angle angle range of the airflow blown out through the two fourth direct blowing channels 70F is 144° to 156°. The wide-angle range is large, and the temperature adjustment range and temperature adjustment effect are both better.

[0067] The air dispersion structure 410 may include a plurality of dispersed air dispersion holes disposed on the zero air plate 400, or mounting holes provided on the plate body of the zero air plate 400, with an impeller rotatably connected in the mounting holes, or other structures that can ventilate and disperse airflow; wherein, the shape, number and position of the air dispersion holes in the attached drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to be actual limitations.
