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 deflectors also have a diffuser structure that disperses the airflow, acting as a zero-air deflector. This allows the zero-air deflector to not only guide the airflow but also block the air outlet to regulate the air conditioner's output to zero airflow. However, the versatility of the airflow direction and pattern adjustment in existing air conditioners still needs improvement. Furthermore, when the airflow structure includes both a deflector and a zero-air deflector, the ease of adjustment and efficiency of coordinating the rotation of these two components are relatively low. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a vertical air conditioner to solve the technical problems of poor adjustability, convenience and efficiency of existing air guide structures in terms of air outlet direction and air outlet form.
[0004] To solve the above problems, this utility model provides a vertical air conditioner, including a housing and two sets of air guiding structures. The front panel of the housing is provided with two air outlets arranged at intervals in the left and right direction. The housing is provided with an air duct connecting the two air outlets. The air duct is provided with a diverting cone for diverting airflow to the two air outlets.
[0005] The two sets of air guiding structures each correspond to one of the air outlets. The air guiding structure includes a main drive member disposed on the housing and an air guiding assembly drivenly connected to the main drive member. The air guiding assembly includes an air guide plate and an auxiliary drive member, and the auxiliary drive member is drivenly connected to a zero-air plate with a wind-dispersing structure. The main drive member is configured to drive the air guiding assembly to rotate synchronously around a first vertical axis so that the air guide plate opens or closes the corresponding air outlet. The auxiliary drive member is configured to drive the zero-air plate to rotate around a second vertical axis so as to open or block at least a partial area of the corresponding air outlet.
[0006] In the vertical air conditioner provided by this utility model, the air guide plate and the zero-air plate can rotate synchronously under the drive of the main drive component to synchronously adjust the air guide angle relative to the air outlet. Simultaneously, the zero-air plate can also rotate relative to the air guide plate under the drive of the auxiliary drive component to adjust the relative angle between the zero-air plate and the air guide plate. By reducing the driving stroke of the auxiliary drive component on the zero-air plate and improving the ease and efficiency of adjusting the air guide plate and the zero-air plate, the rotation angle of the air guide plate and the zero-air plate can be flexibly adjusted according to the user's needs through the main drive component and the auxiliary drive component. The air guide plate and the zero-air plate work together to adjust the airflow pattern, allowing for direct airflow or zero-airflow, or to adjust the airflow direction, thereby improving the flexibility and versatility of the airflow pattern and direction adjustment. In addition, when the air conditioner is off or in standby mode, the main drive unit can drive the air guide plate to rotate around the first vertical axis to the position of closing the air outlet, thereby sealing the air outlet end of the air duct and reducing the occurrence of dust, impurities, etc. entering the casing through the air outlet, causing pollution or even damage to the internal components.

Detailed Implementation
[0033] 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.
[0034] This embodiment provides a vertical air conditioner, such as... Figures 1-6 As shown, the device includes a housing 100 and two sets of air guide structures 20A. The front panel 110 of the housing 100 has two air outlets 120 arranged at intervals in the left-right direction. The housing 100 has an air duct 130 connecting the two air outlets 120. The air duct 130 has a diversion cone 140 for diverting airflow to the two air outlets 120. The two sets of air guide structures 20A correspond to one of the air outlets 120 respectively. The air guide structure 20A includes a main drive component 200 disposed in the housing 100 and a transmission connection to the main drive component. The air guiding assembly 200 includes an air guiding plate 400 and an auxiliary drive component 300. The auxiliary drive component 300 is connected to a zero-air plate 500 with a diffuser structure 520. The main drive component 200 is configured to drive the air guiding assembly 20B to rotate synchronously around a first vertical axis 410 so that the air guiding plate 400 opens or closes the corresponding air outlet 120. The auxiliary drive component 300 is configured to drive the zero-air plate 500 to rotate around a second vertical axis 510 so as to open or block at least a partial area of the corresponding air outlet 120.
[0035] In the vertical air conditioner provided in this embodiment, the housing 100 serves as the mounting base and forms an air duct 130 for airflow. The diverter cone 140 is located in the front end area of the air duct 130 and in the middle of the air duct 130 along the left and right direction. The two air outlets 120 on the front panel 110 are located on the left and right sides of the diverter cone 140, respectively. In the air guiding structure 20A, a diffuser structure 520 is provided on the zero-wind plate 500. When the airflow passes through the surface of the zero-wind plate 500, the surface of the zero-wind plate 500 can guide the airflow. When the airflow passes through the diffuser structure 520, the diffuser structure 520 can disperse the airflow to form a zero-wind effect with a relatively gentle wind speed and better noise reduction. The main drive component 200 is installed on the housing 100. The air guiding plate 400 and the auxiliary drive component 300 of the air guiding assembly are both driven to the main drive component 200, and the zero-wind plate 500 is driven to the auxiliary drive component 300. Thus, the main drive component 200 can drive the air guiding plate 400 and the zero-wind plate 500 to rotate around the first... The vertical axis 410 rotates synchronously to adjust the air guiding angle of the air guide plate 400 and the zero-wind plate 500 relative to the air outlet 120. At the same time, the auxiliary drive component 300 can also drive the zero-wind plate 500 to rotate relative to the air guide plate 400 around the second vertical axis 510 to adjust the relative angle between the zero-wind plate 500 and the air guide plate 400. On the basis of reducing the driving stroke of the auxiliary drive component 300 on the zero-wind plate 500 and improving the ease of adjustment and efficiency of the air guide plate 400 and the zero-wind plate 500, the air guide plate 400 and the zero-wind plate 500 can play a role in sealing and blocking the air outlet 120, or guide the airflow through the air outlet 120 to different directions.
[0036] In practical use, when the vertical air conditioner is in the off or standby state, the main drive component 200 in each air guide structure 20A can drive the air guide plate 400 to rotate around the first vertical axis 410 to the position of closing the air outlet 120, thereby closing the air outlet end of the air duct 130, so as to reduce the occurrence of dust, impurities, etc. entering the housing 100 through the air outlet 120, causing pollution or even damage to the internal components.
[0037] When the vertical air conditioner is in operation, the rotation angle of the air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500 can be adjusted by the main drive component 200 of each air guide structure 20A according to the user's needs. The rotation angle of the zero-air plate 500 relative to the air guide plate 400 can be further adjusted by the auxiliary drive component 300. This allows the air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500 to cooperate in adjusting the airflow pattern, such as direct airflow or zero-airflow, or to adjust the airflow direction. This improves the flexibility and diversity of the airflow pattern and direction adjustment of the vertical air conditioner, reduces the driving stroke of the auxiliary drive component 300 on the zero-air plate 500, and improves the ease and efficiency of adjusting the air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500.
[0038] For example, when a user needs rapid temperature adjustment of the vertical air conditioner, the main drive component 200 of each air guide structure 20A drives the air guide plate 400 to rotate to open the air outlet 120 and extend forward along a first preset angle. At the same time, the auxiliary drive component 300 drives the zero-wind plate 500 to rotate to open the air outlet 120 and extend forward along a second preset angle. With the air outlet 120 open, the airflow in the duct 130 can be guided by the air guide plate 400 and the zero-wind plate 500 to blow directly outward along the target direction, thereby achieving rapid temperature adjustment of the target area by the vertical air conditioner. When the user needs gentle and quiet temperature adjustment, the auxiliary drive component 300 drives the zero-wind plate 500 to rotate to completely block the airflow. The air outlet 120 is driven by the main drive component 200 to rotate the air guide plate 400 to open the air outlet 120 and avoid the zero-wind plate 500; or the auxiliary drive component 300 can drive the zero-wind plate 500 to rotate and block a part of the air outlet 120's air outlet area, while the main drive component 200 drives the air guide plate 400 to rotate and close the remaining air outlet area of the air outlet 120. This ensures that the airflow in the air duct 130 needs to pass through the air dispersion structure 520 of the zero-wind plate 500 before it can be blown out. After the airflow is dispersed by the air dispersion structure 520, a zero-wind 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.
[0039] In the vertical air conditioner provided in this embodiment, the air guide plate 400 and the zero-wind plate 500 can rotate synchronously under the drive of the main drive component 200 to synchronously adjust the air guide angle relative to the air outlet 120. Simultaneously, the zero-wind plate 500 can also rotate relative to the air guide plate 400 under the drive of the auxiliary drive component 300 to adjust the relative angle between the zero-wind plate 500 and the air guide plate 400. By reducing the driving stroke of the auxiliary drive component 300 on the zero-wind plate 500 and improving the ease and efficiency of adjusting the air guide plate 400 and the zero-wind plate 500, the air guide plate 400 and the zero-wind plate 500 can be flexibly adjusted according to the user's needs through the main drive component 200 and the auxiliary drive component 300. The rotation angle of 0° allows the air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500 to work together to adjust the airflow pattern, whether it is direct airflow or zero-airflow, or to adjust the airflow direction, thereby improving the flexibility and versatility of the airflow pattern and direction adjustment of the air conditioner. In addition, when the air conditioner is in the off or standby state, the main drive unit 200 can drive the air guide plate 400 to rotate around the first vertical axis 410 to the position of closing the air outlet 120, thereby closing the air outlet end of the air duct 130, so as to reduce the occurrence of dust, impurities, etc. entering the housing 100 through the air outlet 120 and causing pollution or even damage to the internal components.
[0040] In this embodiment, in each air guiding structure 20A, such as Figures 3-5As shown, the main drive unit 200 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 600, and the air guide plate 400 and the auxiliary drive unit 300 are both disposed on the mounting base 600. In use, the main drive unit 200 drives the mounting base 600 to rotate around the first vertical axis 410, and the air guide plate 400, the auxiliary drive unit 300, and the zero-wind plate 500 connected to the auxiliary drive unit 300 rotate synchronously with the mounting base 600, thereby realizing the synchronous drive of the air guide plate 400 and the auxiliary drive unit 300 by the main drive unit 200 and ensuring drive stability.
[0041] Specifically, the mounting base 600 is provided with a receiving groove 610, and the auxiliary driving member 300 is housed in the receiving groove 610 to reduce the occurrence of interference between the auxiliary driving member 300 and other components during the rotation of the mounting base 600.
[0042] In this embodiment, as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the air guide plate 400 is fixedly provided with a first support ear 420, and the first support ear 420 and the mounting base 600 are arranged vertically at intervals; the zero-wind plate 500 is provided with a second support ear 530, which is hinged to the first support ear 420 via a hinge shaft, and the hinge shaft is coaxial with the second vertical axis 510. The air guide plate 400 and the zero-wind plate 500 are rotatably connected via the first support ear 420 and the second support ear 530, respectively, thereby providing secondary connection support for the zero-wind plate 500 and the air guide plate 400 at height positions different from the mounting base 600, improving the stability of the relative rotation of the zero-wind plate 500 and the air guide plate 400.
[0043] Preferably, there are multiple first support ears 420, which are arranged vertically at intervals on the air guide plate 400; correspondingly, there are multiple second support ears 530, which are arranged vertically at intervals on the zero-wind plate 500, and the multiple second support ears 530 are hinged to the multiple first support ears 420 one-to-one through hinge shafts, so as to connect and support the air guide plate 400 and the zero-wind plate 500 at multiple vertical height positions, thereby further improving the stability of the relative rotation of the zero-wind plate 500 and the air guide plate 400.
[0044] In this embodiment, depending on the different rotation angles and mutual cooperation angles of the air guide plate 400 and the zero-wind plate 500, the vertical air conditioner can have a closed mode, a direct air blowing mode, and a zero-wind mode. Among them, depending on the different cooperation between the air outlet angle, the air guide plate 400 and the zero-wind plate 500 and the side wall 131 of the air duct 130 and the side cone wall of the diversion cone 140, the direct air blowing mode can be further divided into a wide-angle mode and a regular air outlet mode.
[0045] Among them, when the air conditioner is in the off or standby state, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, when the air conditioner enters the closed mode, the main drive unit 200 drives the air guide plate 400 to rotate around the first vertical axis 410 to the position of closing the air outlet 120, and the auxiliary drive unit 300 drives the zero air plate 500 to rotate around the second vertical axis 510 to the position of avoiding the air guide plate 400, thereby closing the air outlet of the air duct 130 to reduce the occurrence of dust, impurities, etc. entering the housing 100 through the air outlet 120, causing pollution or even damage to the internal components.
[0046] Specifically, when the air conditioner is in closed mode, in each air guiding structure 20A, the air guide plate 400 closes the corresponding air outlet 120, and the zero-air plate 500 is located within the air duct 130. When the air conditioner is in the off or standby state, the air guide plate 400 closes the air outlet 120, and the auxiliary drive component 300 drives the zero-air plate 500 to rotate into the air duct 130. The air guide plate 400 also acts as a barrier to protect the zero-air plate 500, reducing the accumulation of dust and other pollutants on the air dispersion structure 520 of the zero-air plate 500, thus preventing blockage, weakening, or even failure of the air dispersion effect of the air dispersion structure 520. At the same time, it can also reduce the airflow passing through the air dispersion structure 520 during air conditioner operation, preventing the dust accumulated inside from being blown into the indoor environment and causing secondary pollution, thereby ensuring the air dispersion effect of the zero-air plate 500 and improving the user experience of the air conditioner.
[0047] When the air conditioner is in closed mode, the outer wall of the air guide plate 400 is smoothly connected to the outer wall of the casing 100 to improve the overall flatness and integrity of the air conditioner when it is off or in standby mode.
[0048] In this embodiment, as Figures 4-6 As shown, the diversion cone 140 is located at the front end of the duct section 130 and at the middle of the duct section in 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 131 on the left side of the duct 130 and the cone sidewall 141 on the left side of the diversion cone 140, and the branch duct 150 on the right is defined by the duct sidewall 131 on the right side of the duct 130 and the cone sidewall 141 on the right side of the diversion cone 140. Two air outlets 120 are respectively connected to the front end of the branch duct 150 on the same side, and two sets of air guiding structures 20A correspond one-to-one with the two branch ducts 150. The two air outlets 120 can be rectangular, and the outlines of the air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500 are approximately rectangular, and the horizontal width of the air guide plate 400 is greater than the horizontal width of the zero-air plate 500.
[0049] When users require gentle, quiet temperature control, such as Figures 3-6As shown, when the vertical air conditioner enters the zero-wind mode, in each air guiding structure 20A, the air guide plate 400 is opened, and the rear end of the air guide plate 400 is adjacent to the air duct 130 on the same side of the air duct sidewall 131. The zero-wind plate 500 blocks the air outlet 120 located in the air outlet area between the air guide plate 400 and the diversion cone 140. In each air guiding structure 20A, the width of the air guide plate 400 is greater than the width of the zero-wind plate 500, and the air guide plate 400 is located on the side of the zero-wind plate 500 away from the diversion cone 140. In zero-wind mode, the rear end of the air guide plate 400 adjacent to the same-side duct sidewall 131 means that the rear end of the air guide plate 400 abuts against the same-side duct sidewall 131, or there is a small gap of 0.1mm to 5mm between the rear end of the air guide plate 400 and the same-side duct sidewall 131. The zero-wind plate 500 is sandwiched between the air guide plate 400 and the diversion cone 140, so the duct 1 The airflow of 30 is diverted by the diversion cone 140 and enters two branch air ducts 150. Then, under the obstruction and guidance of the air guide plate 400, it flows to the zero-wind plate 500. After being dispersed by the air diffusion structure 520, it is blown forward. In front of the zero-wind plate 500, that is, in the middle area in the left and right directions in front of the vertical air conditioner, a zero-wind zone 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 in the middle area in front of the vertical air conditioner, the temperature regulation effect is improved and the noise effect is reduced.
[0050] In some other embodiments, in zero-wind mode, in each air guiding structure 20A, the air guide plate 400 can also be located between the zero-wind plate 500 and the diversion cone 140. The rear end of the air guide plate 400 is adjacent to the cone sidewall 141 of the diversion cone 140. The zero-wind plate 500 blocks the air outlet 120 located in the air outlet area between the air guide plate 400 and the air duct sidewall 131 on the same side, thereby forming a zero-wind area with a gentle wind speed and better noise reduction in the area in front of the vertical air conditioner near the left and right sides. This improves the gentle and quiet temperature regulation effect while ensuring the temperature regulation effect of the vertical air conditioner on the indoor environment, especially in the area in front of the vertical air conditioner near the left and right sides.
[0051] When users require rapid temperature adjustment and a wide temperature range from a floor-standing air conditioner, such as... Figures 9-11As shown, when the vertical air conditioner enters the wide-angle mode, the mid-plane of the area between the two air guiding structures 20A 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 guiding structures 20A is used as the reference plane 70G. In each air guiding structure 20A, the air guide plate 400 forms an angle with the reference plane 70G with the opening facing forward and the angle range being 60° to 80°. The two air guide plates 400 extend from back to front away from each other, and the two zero-air plates 500 extend from back to front away from each other. In each air guiding structure 20A, the zero-air plate 500 and the air guide plate 400 form the first direct blowing channel 70A for airflow. The air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500 on the left side both extend from back to front and to the left, thus forming a first direct-blowing channel 70A extending from back to front and to the left between the left air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500; the air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500 on the right side both extend from back to front and to the right, thus forming a first direct-blowing channel 70A extending from back to front and to the right between the right air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500; the two first direct-blowing channels 70A extend forward in a widening shape. During operation, the airflow of the duct 130 blows straight out to the left front and right front through the two first direct-blowing channels 70A respectively, thus forming a direct-blowing area with a wide angle range in the left and right direction in front of the vertical air conditioner, thereby achieving rapid temperature regulation of the indoor environment with a large temperature regulation range.
[0052] When the vertical air conditioner is in wide-angle mode, each air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500 are tilted 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 is in the range of 60° to 80°, preferably 72° to 78°, and more 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 20A. In wide-angle mode, the deflection angle α of the left air guiding plate 400 and the zero-wind plate 500 relative to the reference plane 70G is in the range of 60° to 80°, and the deflection angle α of the right air guiding plate 400 and the zero-wind plate 500 relative to the reference plane 70G is in the range of 60° to 80°. Therefore, the angle range between the two air guiding plates 400 and the two zero-wind plates 500 is 120° to 160°. Correspondingly, the wide-angle angle range of the airflow blown out through the two first straight blowing channels 70A is 120° to 160°. The wide-angle range is large, and the temperature adjustment range and temperature adjustment effect are better.
[0053] In this embodiment, when the user is located in the area directly in front of the vertical air conditioner and does not want to be blown directly, the vertical air conditioner can enter the first mode of the wide-angle mode. In this mode, among the air guiding structures 20A, the air guide plate 400 is located between the zero-air plate 500 and the diversion cone 140, and the rear end of the air guide plate 400 is adjacent to the cone side wall 141 of the diversion cone 140; the rear end of the zero-air plate 500 is adjacent to the air duct 130 located on the same side of the air duct side wall 131. The rear end of the air guide plate 400 abuts against the cone sidewall 141 on the corresponding side of the diversion cone 140, or there is a small gap of 0.1mm to 5mm between the rear end of the air guide plate 400 and the cone sidewall 141 on the corresponding side of the diversion cone 140; at the same time, the rear end of the zero-air plate 500 abuts against the duct sidewall 131 on the same side, or there is a small gap of 0.1mm to 5mm between the rear end of the zero-air plate 500 and the duct sidewall 131 on the same side, so that the airflow flowing into the branch duct 150 can only be blown outward through the first direct blowing channel 70A defined between the air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500, thereby increasing the direct blowing air volume of the first direct blowing channel 70A, and correspondingly increasing the direct blowing air volume of the vertical air conditioner to the wide-angle areas on both sides in the wide-angle mode, thereby improving the wide-angle temperature regulation effect; at the same time, the middle area of the vertical air conditioner between the two air guide plates 400 is a windless area, and this area does not blow directly on the user, ensuring the user's experience.
[0054] In the above case, the rear end of the zero-air panel 500, except for the adjacent sidewall 131 of the air duct on the same side, is as follows: Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the zero-air vane 500 can also form a second direct-blowing channel 70B between the air duct sidewall 131 on the same side as the air duct 130, allowing airflow to be blown out. The airflow flowing into the branch air duct 150 can then be blown outwards simultaneously through the first direct-blowing channel 70A and the second direct-blowing channel 70B, with the blowing area located on the side of the guide vane 400 away from the diversion cone 140. This further expands the wide-angle range of the vertical air conditioner's left and right airflow, while also increasing the airflow area of the single-sided direct-blowing channel, thus further improving the temperature regulation effect in wide-angle mode. Simultaneously, the area between the two guide vanes 400 remains a windless area, which is not reduced in size to ensure the range of the windless area for the user.
[0055] In this embodiment, when the user needs to quickly adjust the temperature of a large area in front of the standing air conditioner, the standing air conditioner can enter the second mode of wide-angle mode, such as... Figure 11As shown, in this mode, in each air guiding structure 20A, the zero-air plate 500 is located between the air guiding plate 400 and the diversion cone 140. The air guiding plate 400 is located on the side of the zero-air plate 500 away from the diversion cone 140. The air guiding plate 400 and the air duct 130 are located on the same side of the air duct sidewall 131 to form a third direct blowing channel 70C for airflow. The zero-air plate 500 and the cone sidewall 141 of the diversion cone 140 form a fourth direct blowing channel 70D for airflow. During operation, the airflow entering the branch duct 150 can be simultaneously blown outward through the first direct-blowing channel 70A, the third direct-blowing channel 70C, and the fourth direct-blowing channel 70D. The third direct-blowing channel 70C, the first direct-blowing channel 70A, and the fourth direct-blowing channel 70D are arranged sequentially in a direction away from the splitter cone 140, and their total outlet area is approximately equal to the outlet area of the air outlet 120. This means that in this mode, the single-sided outlet area of the vertical air conditioner is maximized, thus ensuring that the vertical air conditioner can outlet air to both sides in this mode. The air volume ensures the temperature regulation effect of the vertical air conditioner. At the same time, the airflow area blown outward through the third direct blowing channel 70C has the widest range, the airflow area blown outward through the fourth direct blowing channel 70D is close to the middle area of the vertical air conditioner, and the airflow area blown outward through the first direct blowing channel 70A is located between the airflow areas blown out by the third direct blowing channel 70C and the fourth direct blowing channel 70D. This makes the single-sided air outlet range of the vertical air conditioner wider, and thus achieves rapid temperature regulation of a larger area in front of the vertical air conditioner.
[0056] In this embodiment, in wide-angle mode, the front end of the air guide plate 400 extends outward to the air outlet 120. The airflow blown out through the air outlet 120 can continue to flow forward a long distance under the guiding effect of the air guide plate 400, thereby increasing the air delivery distance of the air guide plate 400 and correspondingly further increasing the air delivery range and temperature regulation effect of the vertical air conditioner to the wide-angle areas on both sides.
[0057] In this embodiment, when a user needs the floor-standing air conditioner to quickly adjust the temperature of a small area directly in front of them, the floor-standing air conditioner can enter the normal airflow mode, such as... Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, when the vertical air conditioner is in the normal air outlet mode, in each air guiding structure 20A, the air guide plate 400 and the zero air plate 500 are both open, and a fifth direct blowing channel 70E for airflow is formed between the air guide plate 400 and the zero air plate 500; wherein, the mid-plane of the area between the two air guiding structures 20A is used as the reference plane 70G, and the angle between each air guide plate 400 and the zero air plate 500 and the reference plane 70G is in the range of 0° to 20°. In each air guiding structure 20A, the air guiding plate 400 can be tilted from back to front away from the reference plane 70G at a angle of 0° to 20° to form an opening-forward angle with the reference plane 70G; or, the air guiding plate 400 can be tilted from back to front toward the reference plane 70G at a angle of 0° to 20° to form an opening-backward angle with the reference plane 70G. Similarly, the zero-wind plate 500 can be tilted from back to front away from the reference plane 70G at a angle of 0° to 20° to form an opening-forward angle with the reference plane 70G; or, the zero-wind plate 500 can be tilted from back to front toward the reference plane 70G at a angle of 0° to 20° to form an opening-backward angle with the reference plane 70G. The tilt angles of the air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500 relative to the reference plane 70G to the left and right are both less than 20°. Thus, a fifth direct-blowing channel 70E is formed between the air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500, extending forward. The tilt angle from back to front to the left and right is less than 20°. That is, the fifth direct-blowing channel 70E is relatively close to the middle position of the vertical air conditioner. Accordingly, during operation, the airflow of the air duct 130 blows directly to the front of the middle area of the vertical air conditioner through the two fifth direct-blowing channels 70E, thereby forming a direct-blowing area in a small area in front of the vertical air conditioner near the middle position, thereby achieving rapid temperature adjustment in the small area directly in front of the vertical air conditioner.
[0058] Specifically, the vertical air conditioner is a vertical air conditioner with two air outlets 120 and two air guide structures 20A symmetrically arranged in the left and right directions about a symmetrical plane, and the aforementioned symmetrical plane can be selected as the reference plane 70G.
[0059] In this embodiment, when the vertical air conditioner is in the normal air outlet mode, such as Figure 8As shown, in each air guiding structure 20A, the zero-air plate 500 is located between the air guiding plate 400 and the diversion cone 140, and the rear end of the air guiding plate 400 is adjacent to the side wall 131 of the air duct 130 on the same side, and the front end of the air guiding plate 400 extends outward to the air outlet 120; the zero-air plate 500 and the diversion cone 140 form a sixth direct blowing channel 70F. On the one hand, the two zero-air vanes 500 are located between the two air guide vanes 400. The rear end of the air guide vane 400 abuts against the side wall 131 of the air duct on the same side, or there is a small gap of 0.1mm to 5mm between the rear end of the air guide vane 400 and the side wall 131 of the air duct on the same side. The sixth direct-blowing channel 70F formed between the zero-air vane 500 and the cone side wall 141 of the split cone 140 is closer to the middle position of the vertical air conditioner in the left and right direction. The airflow flowing into the branch air duct 150 can be blown forward directly through the fifth direct-blowing channel 70E and the sixth direct-blowing channel 70F. Thus, without increasing the maximum circumferential range of the vertical air conditioner's air outlet, the air outlet area and direct-blowing air volume in front of the vertical air conditioner are increased, and the air volume uniformity of the direct-blowing area formed in front of the vertical air conditioner is correspondingly improved, further improving the temperature regulation effect on the smaller area in front of the vertical air conditioner. On the other hand, in the normal air outlet mode, the front end of the air guide plate 400 extends outward to the air outlet 120. The air guide plates 400 on both sides can gather and guide the airflow blown outward from the fifth direct blowing channel 70E and the sixth direct blowing channel 70F. At the same time, the plate body of the air guide plate 400 extending outward to the air outlet 120 can also extend its air delivery distance, thereby further increasing the direct air volume of the direct blowing area formed in the front area near the middle of the vertical air conditioner, and improving the air delivery distance and temperature regulation effect of the direct blowing area.
[0060] In this embodiment, under the normal air outlet mode, such as Figure 8 As shown, the zero-air vane 500 is inclined towards the flow divider cone 140 from back to front. That is, the zero-air vane 500 and the reference plane 70G form an angle β with the opening facing backward, and the angle range is preferably 1° to 5°; the two zero-air vanes 500 extend from back to front in a narrowing shape. During operation, the airflow entering the sixth direct-blowing channel 70F can flow towards the middle position of the vertical air conditioner in the left and right direction under the guidance of the zero-air vane 500, so that the area between the two air outlets 120 is covered by the airflow blown out by the sixth direct-blowing channel 70F. Correspondingly, the area of the vertical air conditioner between the two air guide vanes 400 is a direct airflow area, thereby improving the airflow uniformity in the small area in front of the vertical air conditioner and further ensuring the temperature regulation effect in this area.
[0061] Among them, see Figure 2 and Figure 6In both closed-loop and zero-wind modes, the relative positions of the zero-wind vane 500 and the air guide vane 400 are the same. Therefore, when the vertical air conditioner switches between closed-loop and zero-wind modes, only the main drive component 200 needs to drive the air guide vane 400 and the zero-wind vane 500 to rotate synchronously by a certain angle; the auxiliary drive component 300 does not need to operate. (Continue to see...) Figure 8 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 In the regular air outlet mode, the first wide-angle mode, and the second wide-angle mode, the relative positions of the air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500 are approximately the same. Therefore, when the vertical air conditioner switches between the regular air outlet mode, the first wide-angle mode, and the second wide-angle mode, it is only necessary to drive the air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500 to rotate synchronously by a certain angle through the main drive component 200. The auxiliary drive component 300 does not need to operate, thereby improving the convenience and effect of adjusting the air guide plate 400 and the zero-air plate 500 in the air guide structure 20A.
[0062] The air dispersion structure 520 may include a plurality of dispersed air dispersion holes disposed on the zero air plate 500, or mounting holes provided on the plate body of the zero air plate 500, 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 shown as examples and are not intended to be actual limitations.
[0063] Specifically, both the main drive component 200 and the auxiliary drive component 300 can be motors. The main drive component 200 is located at the top or bottom of the air guide plate 400. The end of the air guide plate 400 away from the main drive component 200 can be rotatably connected to the housing 100 to improve the stability of the air guide plate 400 rotating around the first vertical axis 410. Similarly, the end of the zero-wind plate 500 away from the auxiliary drive component 300 can be rotatably connected to the housing 100 to improve the stability of the zero-wind plate 500 rotating around the second vertical axis 510.
