Detailed Implementation

[0037] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numerals in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0038] It should be noted that all actions involving the acquisition of signals, information, or data in this disclosure are carried out in compliance with the relevant data protection laws and policies of the country where the location is situated, and with authorization from the owner of the relevant device.

[0039] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, this exemplary embodiment provides a filtration device that can be applied to air conditioning equipment with air purification functions. Air conditioning equipment includes, but is not limited to, air conditioners, ducted air conditioners, fresh air systems, and oxygen concentrators.

[0040] Specifically, the filtration device provided in this disclosure includes a frame 1, a filter screen 2, and a filter screen pressing member 3. The frame 1 is provided with a receiving cavity 111. The filter screen 2 may include, for example, a high-efficiency filter screen, and is detachably disposed within the receiving cavity 111. The filter screen pressing member 3 is flip-mounted on the frame 1 and has a first position and a second position. In the first position, the filter screen pressing member 3 is parallel to the filter screen 2 and is pressed against the upper surface of the filter screen 2; in the second position, the filter screen pressing member 3 is at an angle to the filter screen 2 to allow space for the filter screen 2 to be installed and removed.

[0041] It should be noted that "pressing" here refers to the fact that, in the first position, the projection of the filter pressing component 3 toward the filter 2 at least partially overlaps with the filter 2. Correspondingly, "avoiding space for the installation and removal of the filter 2" means that, in the second position, the projection of the filter pressing component 3 toward the filter 2 does not overlap with the filter 2. For example, the frame 1 is typically constructed as a rectangle. Figure 1 In the illustrated embodiment, the filter screen 2 is configured to be installed from the top surface of the frame 1, and the filter screen pressing member 3 is disposed on the side of the frame 1. In a first position, the filter screen pressing member 3 is pressed onto the upper surface of the side edge of the filter screen 2.

[0042] When the air conditioning equipment is working normally, such as Figure 3 As shown, the filter screen pressing component 3 flips to a first position parallel to the filter screen 2 and presses against the upper surface of the filter screen 2, locking the filter screen 2 in place and preventing it from being removed. When it is necessary to remove the filter screen 2, as... Figure 4 As shown, the filter screen pressing component 3 can be flipped to the second position by means of manual means, for example. At this time, the filter screen pressing component 3 is at an angle to the filter screen 2, and the projected length of the filter screen pressing component 3 in the direction of the filter screen 2 becomes shorter, thereby avoiding the space for the filter screen 2 to be disassembled and installed.

[0043] Filter 2 is a component that requires frequent cleaning or replacement, and its ease of disassembly and assembly is directly related to the user experience. The filtration device provided in this disclosure allows for locking and unlocking of the filter by flipping the filter pressing parts. Its simple structure and convenient operation enhance the product's competitiveness.

[0044] To ensure the reliability of locking the filter 2, i.e., that the filter 2 can be reliably accommodated in the receiving cavity 111 without external force provided by the user, in some embodiments, the frame 1 may be provided with a slot 113, and the filter pressing component 3 may be provided with a buckle 33. The buckle 33 is configured to engage with the slot 113 in the first position. When it is necessary to remove the filter 2, the buckle 33 can be manually disengaged from the slot 113. This snap-fit ​​engagement between the filter pressing component 3 and the frame 1 is simple in structure, easy to operate, and provides a relatively reliable lock on the filter 2.

[0045] This disclosure is not intended to limit the specific form of the snap-fit ​​engagement between the filter press-fit member 3 and the frame 1. In some embodiments, a groove 113 may be formed using the gap between the filter press-fit member 3 and the frame 1. For example, refer to... Figure 2The frame 1 may include a lower cover 12 and an upper cover 11 that is detachably fitted onto the top of the lower cover 12. In some filtration devices, in addition to the filter screen 2, electronic devices such as sensors for detecting air quality may also be included. To facilitate the installation and maintenance of these electronic devices, the frame 1 may be constructed as a split structure, wherein the upper cover 11 can be fitted onto the lower cover 12 and form a housing for the electronic devices on the side near the receiving cavity 111.

[0046] Also refer to Figure 9 The upper cover 11 may be provided with an inwardly extending sidewall 114. In the first position, the end face of the filter screen pressing member 3 and the end face of the sidewall 114 are spaced apart. The buckle 33 is provided on the end face of the filter screen pressing member 3 and can be locked onto the inner side of the sidewall 114. The side wall of the frame 1 is elastic. When the filter screen pressing member 3 is flipped from the second position to the first position, the buckle 33 can be squeezed into the gap between the end face of the filter screen pressing member 3 and the end face of the sidewall 114, causing the side wall of the frame 1 to deform outward. When the buckle 33 finally reaches the first position, the buckle 33 has passed through the gap. Under the action of the elastic restoring force, the buckle 33 is locked onto the inner side of the sidewall 114. To ensure reliable locking of the buckle 33, the length of the buckle 33 and the sidewall 114 locking engagement can be greater than or equal to 0.3 mm.

[0047] Optionally, to facilitate the engagement and disengagement of the latch 33, in some embodiments, the latch 33 is provided with guide ramps on both sides in the engagement direction. This allows the user to engage and disengage the filter screen pressing component 3 without exerting excessive force, and avoids damage to the device due to excessive force.

[0048] In addition, the filter pressing component 3 can be constructed as a strip to increase the pressing area, and both ends of the filter pressing component 3 along the length direction are provided with buckles 33, which helps to improve the reliability of the filter pressing component 3 in locking and further improves the reliability of locking the filter 2.

[0049] To enable the filter screen pressing component 3 to be flipped on the frame 1, in some embodiments, such as Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the filter screen pressing component 3 includes a pressing part 31 and a connecting part 32. The pressing part 31 is used to press the filter screen 2. For example, the pressing part 31 can be constructed as a strip. The connecting part 32 is rotatably connected to the frame 1 through a rotating shaft 321.

[0050] The frame 1 may be provided with a mounting groove 112 with an opening facing the receiving cavity 111. The mounting groove 112 may be provided, for example, on the upper cover 11. Figure 6 As shown, the bottom of the groove 112 is provided with a limiting inclined surface 1121, which slopes from top to bottom away from the receiving cavity 111. Figure 5 As shown, the pressing part 31 includes a strip-shaped pressing body 311 and a baffle 312 disposed on one side of the pressing body 311 along its length. The pressing body 311 is used to press the filter screen 2. The baffle 312 is accommodated in the mounting groove 112 and can cooperate with the limiting inclined surface 1121 to limit the opening angle of the filter screen pressing part 3, thereby preventing the filter screen pressing part 3 from opening at too large an angle. Optionally, the opening angle of the filter screen pressing part 3 can be in the range of 35° to 50°.

[0051] Considering the 90° opening angle of the filter screen pressing component 3, if its position is not fixed, the filter screen pressing component 3 is prone to flipping back to its first position under its own weight during the removal of the filter screen 2, and constantly holding it by hand is inconvenient. In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the filtration device may further include a first elastic element 4, which is connected to the filter screen pressing member 3 and the frame 1 respectively, and is configured to have an elastic force that holds the filter screen pressing member 3 in a second position. Figure 6 As shown, the filter screen pressing component 3 is in the first position, at which time the first elastic element 4 is in a stretched state. This elastic force can be overcome by the snap-fit ​​between the filter screen pressing component 3 and the frame 1, thereby maintaining the filter screen pressing component 3 in the first position. When the filter screen pressing component 3 is flipped to the second position, the first elastic element 4, under the action of elastic restoring force, generates a pulling force on the filter screen pressing component 3, thereby maintaining the filter screen pressing component 3 in the second position. Optionally, the first elastic element 4 can be a rubber ring, such as... Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, a rubber ring groove 322 may be provided on the connecting part 32. The rubber ring groove 322 may be, for example, a semi-annular elastic groove with a notch.

[0052] like Figure 4 As shown, the filter screen pressing component 3 may be provided with a lever 34 to facilitate flipping the filter screen pressing component 3 from the first position to the second position. Furthermore, the filter screen 2 may be provided with a handle for removal; the handle may be, for example, a flexible strip, and / or as... Figure 10 As shown, a second elastic element 5 can be provided between the bottom of the filter screen 2 and the frame 1. The second elastic element 5 can be a spring, used to pop the filter screen 2 out of the receiving cavity 111 after the filter screen pressing member 3 releases the lock on the filter screen 2. For example, when the filter screen pressing member 3 is in the first position and the filter screen 2 is locked, the filter screen 2 will not pop out even under the action of the second elastic element 5. However, when the filter screen pressing member 3 is in the second position and the filter screen 2 is unlocked, depending on the different settings of the second elastic element 5, for example, at least the filter screen 2 on the side closest to the filter screen pressing member 3 can be popped out, and then the filter screen 2 can be completely removed by pulling the handle.

[0053] According to a second aspect of the present disclosure, an air conditioning device is also provided, including the filtration device of any of the above-described embodiments, and having all of its beneficial effects, which will not be elaborated further here. The air conditioning device includes, but is not limited to, air conditioners, ducted air conditioners, fresh air systems, and oxygen concentrators.

[0054] In the above detailed description, reference has been made to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate specific aspects of this disclosure by way of illustration.

Since components of the described device can be positioned in multiple different orientations, directional terms are used for illustrative purposes and not for limitation. It should be understood that other aspects can be utilized and structural or logical changes can be made without departing from the concept of this disclosure. Therefore, the following detailed description should not be considered limiting.

[0055] It should be understood that, unless otherwise specifically indicated, features of various embodiments of this disclosure described herein can be combined with each other. As used herein, the term “and / or” includes any one of the relevant listed items and any combination of any two or more; similarly, “at least one of…” includes any one of the relevant listed items and any combination of any two or more.

[0056] It should be understood that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "joining," "attaching," "installing," "connecting," "linking," "fixing," etc., used in the embodiments of this disclosure should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or a connection that allows communication between them; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms herein based on the specific circumstances.

[0057] Furthermore, the term "above" as used herein with respect to components, elements, or material layers formed or located "above" a surface may be used to indicate that the component, element, or material layer is "indirectly" positioned (e.g., placed, formed, deposited, etc.) on the surface such that one or more additional components, elements, or layers are arranged between the surface and the component, element, or material layer. However, the term "above" as used with respect to components, elements, or material layers formed or located "above" a surface may also optionally have a specific meaning: that the component, element, or material layer is "directly" positioned (e.g., placed, formed, deposited, etc.) on the surface, for example, in direct contact with the surface.

[0058] Although terms such as “first,” “second,” and “third” may be used herein to describe various components, parts, regions, layers, or sections, these components, parts, regions, layers, or sections are not limited to these terms. Rather, these terms are used only to distinguish one component, part, region, layer, or section from another. Therefore, without departing from the teachings of the examples described herein, the first component, part, region, layer, or section mentioned in the examples may also be referred to as the second component, part, region, layer, or section. Furthermore, the terms “first” and “second” are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features.

Thus, depending on the spatial orientation of the device, the term “above” encompasses both above and below orientations. Devices may have other orientations (e.g., rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative terms used herein should be interpreted accordingly.

[0060] Furthermore, the term “exemplary” is used herein to mean serving as an example, instance, or illustration. Any aspect or design described herein as “exemplary” is not necessarily to be construed as advantageous compared to other aspects or designs. Rather, the use of the term “exemplary” is intended to present the concept in a concrete manner. As used herein, the term “or” is intended to mean an inclusive “or” rather than an exclusive “or.” That is, unless otherwise specified or clear from the context, “X applies A or B” is intended to mean any of the natural inclusive arrangements. That is, “X applies A or B” satisfies any of the foregoing instances if X applies A; X applies B; or both X applies A and B. Additionally, unless otherwise specified or clear from the context to refer to the singular form, the articles “a” and “an” as used in this application and the appended claims are generally understood to mean “one or more.”

[0061] Similarly, although this disclosure has been shown and described with respect to one or more implementations, equivalent variations and modifications will occur to those skilled in the art upon reading and understanding this specification and the accompanying drawings. This disclosure includes all such modifications and variations and is limited only by the scope of the claims.
