[0078] As Figure 1 shown, Figure 1 The structure of an air conditioner 100 in this embodiment is shown. The air conditioner 100 can be a kitchen air conditioner 100. The air conditioner 100 includes a base module 1, a first module 2, and a second module 3. The first module 2 and the second module 3 are both mounted above the base module 1.

[0079] The first module 2 is used to deliver air that has been heat-exchanged with refrigerant to the indoor, forming heat-exchanged air that leads to the indoor. The second module 3 is used to deliver air that has been heat-exchanged with refrigerant to the outdoor, forming heat-exchanged air that leads to the outdoor.

[0080] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the first module 2 includes a first fan and a first heat exchanger 21. The first fan is used to drive air to flow through the first heat exchanger 21, and the refrigerant flowing through the first heat exchanger 21 can be heat-exchanged with the air flowing through the first heat exchanger 21. The first fan can be used to drive the air in the indoor to flow through the first heat exchanger 21 for heat exchange, and then deliver the heat-exchanged air to the indoor.

[0081] The second module 3 comprises a second fan 34, a second heat exchanger 31, a throttling element 33 and a compressor 32. The second fan 34 is used to drive air to flow through the second heat exchanger 31, and the refrigerant flowing through the second heat exchanger 31 can exchange heat with the air flowing through the second heat exchanger 31. The second fan 34 can be used to drive the indoor or outdoor air to flow through the first heat exchanger 21 to exchange heat, and then deliver the air after heat exchange to the outdoor.

[0082] The compressor 32, the second heat exchanger 31, the throttling element 33 and the first heat exchanger 21 are sequentially connected to form a refrigeration circuit. The outlet of the compressor 32 is connected to the inlet of the second heat exchanger 31 through a refrigerant pipe 64. The outlet of the second heat exchanger 31 is connected to the throttling element 33 through the refrigerant pipe 64. The throttling element 33 is further connected to the inlet of the first heat exchanger 21 through the refrigerant pipe 64. The outlet of the first heat exchanger 21 is connected to the inlet of the compressor 32 through the refrigerant pipe 64.

[0083] In the refrigeration mode of the air conditioner 100, the compressor 32 compresses the refrigerant and outputs the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant to the second heat exchanger 31. The refrigerant transfers heat to the air flowing through the second heat exchanger 31 when flowing through the second heat exchanger 31, and the refrigerant is cooled to low-temperature refrigerant. The refrigerant flows through the second heat exchanger 31 and enters the throttling element 33. The throttling element 33 throttles and depressurizes the refrigerant. The refrigerant output by the throttling element 33 is delivered to the first heat exchanger 21. The refrigerant flowing through the first heat exchanger 21 absorbs heat from the air flowing through the first heat exchanger 21 and evaporates. Finally, the refrigerant returns to the compressor 32 to complete a cycle.

[0084] The first module 2 and the second module 3 are provided with a letting go through slot 4 for the joist to pass through. The first module 2 and the second module 3 are located on opposite sides of the letting go through slot 4, and the base module 1 is arranged below the letting go through slot 4, the first module 2 and the second module 3.

[0085] The air conditioner 100 is provided with the accommodation slot 4, the accommodation slot 4 can accommodate the joist, when the air conditioner 100 is installed, the opening of the accommodation slot 4 is aligned with the joist under the ceiling, then the height of the air conditioner 100 is lifted to make the joist enter the accommodation slot 4, until the joist is located at the bottom of the accommodation slot 4, finally the air conditioner 100 is fixed, for example, the air conditioner 100 is hung and fixed, the installation is completed, and the installed joist does not need to be disassembled or cut off during the installation process of the air conditioner 100. After the installation of the air conditioner 100 is completed, the first module 2 and the second module 3 of the air conditioner 100 can be hidden in the space above the ceiling, and the air conditioner 100 is more beautiful. When the air conditioner 100 needs to be overhauled, the air conditioner 100 is disassembled by removing the fixation of the air conditioner 100 and vertically reducing the height of the air conditioner 100, and the installed joist does not need to be disassembled during the disassembly process of the air conditioner 100. Compared with the prior art, the installation process of the air conditioner 100 is simple, and the installation time is short.

[0086] In an illustrative embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 The accommodation slot 4 is a straight slot. The accommodation slot 4 extends from one side of the base module 1 to the other side of the base module 1. The accommodation slot 4 penetrates the air conditioner 100 in the horizontal direction. The depth of the accommodation slot 4 can be 80% to 95% of the size of the air conditioner 100 in the vertical direction. The bottom wall of the accommodation slot 4 is a substantially horizontal plane. The substantially horizontal plane means that the bottom wall of the accommodation slot 4 has a certain deviation in overall flatness due to disassembly, processing or process limitations.

[0087] The accommodation slot 4 is a straight slot, and the bottom wall of the accommodation slot 4 is a horizontal plane. The accommodation slot 4 is convenient for mutual cooperation with the straight strip-shaped joist, and the bottom surface of the joist can abut against the flat bottom wall of the accommodation slot 4.

[0088] In an illustrative embodiment, the width of the accommodation slot 4 is uniform, and the depth of the accommodation slot 4 is uniform.

[0089] The uniform width of the accommodation slot 4 means that the width of the accommodation slot 4 is consistent in the extension and depth direction of the accommodation slot 4. The uniform depth of the accommodation slot 4 means that the depth of the accommodation slot 4 is consistent in the extension direction of the accommodation slot 4. The uniform width of the accommodation slot 4 and the uniform depth of the accommodation slot 4 can prevent the accommodation slot 4 from being narrowed or shallowed, so that the joist is difficult to install.

[0090] In an illustrative embodiment, the opposite two side walls of the accommodation slot 4 are vertical planes, and the opposite two side walls of the accommodation slot 4 are parallel to each other.

[0091] In this way, when installing the air conditioner 100, only the opening of the accommodation slot 4 is aligned with the keel, and then the air conditioner 100 is vertically lifted to make the keel enter the accommodation slot 4 until the bottom wall of the accommodation slot 4 is close to the keel, without the need to adjust the horizontal position of the air conditioner 100, so that the installation of the air conditioner 100 is more convenient.

[0092] In an illustrative embodiment, the length direction of the air conditioner 100 is the same as the extension direction of the accommodation slot 4. The length of the air conditioner 100 is 575mm-590mm, and the length of the air conditioner 100 can be 583mm.

[0093] The width direction of the air conditioner 100 is the same as the width direction of the accommodation slot 4. The width of the air conditioner 100 is 550mm-565mm, and the width of the air conditioner can be 560mm.

[0094] The height direction of the air conditioner is the same as the depth direction of the accommodation slot 4. The height of the air conditioner 100 is 250mm-265mm, and the height of the air conditioner 100 can be 262mm.

[0095] In this way, the volume of the air conditioner 100 is relatively small as a whole, the structure is relatively compact, and too much space is not occupied.

[0096] In some embodiments, the bottom wall of the accommodation slot 4 is at least partially provided on the base module 1.

[0097] The bottom wall of the accommodation slot 4 being at least partially provided on the base module 1 can reduce the size of the air conditioner 100 in the height direction.

[0098] In some embodiments, the base module 1 forms the bottom wall of the accommodation slot 4, or the bottom wall of the accommodation slot 4 is directly or indirectly connected with the base module 1.

[0099] In this way, the base module 1 forms the bottom wall of the accommodation slot 4, or the bottom wall of the accommodation slot 4 is directly or indirectly connected with the base module 1, which can reduce the size of the air conditioner 100 in the height direction.

[0100] In an illustrative embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 The bottom wall of the accommodation slot 4 is provided with a wire passing cavity 101 below. The wire passing cavity 101 is a hollow structure. Two openings are provided on the wall surface of the wire passing cavity 101, and the two openings are respectively provided on the two sides of the wire passing cavity 101 close to the first module 2 and the second module 3.

[0101] The air conditioner 100 further comprises an electric control box 5 and a connection wire harness 60. The electric control box 5 is a logic control unit of the air conditioner 100. The electric control box 5 comprises a box body and an electric control board arranged in the box body. The electric control board is provided with a control circuit of the air conditioner 100. The box body protects the electric control board. The electric control box 5 is located on the same side of the accommodation through slot 4 as the first module 2. The electric control box 5 is located on opposite sides of the accommodation through slot 4 respectively as the second module 3. The connection wire harness 60 is a wire. One end of the connection wire harness 60 is connected to the second module 3, and the other end of the connection wire harness 60 is connected to the electric control box 5. The connection wire harness 60 can be used to transmit electrical signals and / or power between the second module 3 and the electric control box 5. At least part of the connection wire harness 60 is routed along the wire passing cavity 101 so that the connection wire harness 60 passes from below the accommodation through slot 4.

[0102] The connection wire harness 60 extends from the second module 3 to the opening of the wire passing cavity 101 close to the second module 3, and extends into the wire passing cavity 101 through the opening, and then extends out of the wire passing cavity 101 through the opening of the wire passing cavity 101 close to the first module 2 to reach the electric control box 5. The connection wire harness 60 is routed from the wire passing cavity 101 below the accommodation through slot 4, the routing distance is short, the wiring cost can be reduced, and at the same time, the wire passing cavity 101 also protects the connection wire harness 60, avoiding the connection wire harness 60 being exposed and damaged by rubbing or entanglement with external components such as a keel.

[0103] In an exemplary embodiment, the throttling element 33 is an electronic expansion valve. The second module 3 further comprises a temperature sensing bag. The temperature sensing bag is used to detect the exhaust temperature of the compressor 32.

[0104] As shown in Figure 5 The connection wire harness 60 comprises a first wire harness 61. The first wire harness 61 is composed of one or more wires. The first wire harness 61 can extend from the compressor 32, the electronic expansion valve and / or the temperature sensing bag to the electric control box 5. For example, the first wire harness 61 comprises power lines of the compressor 32, power lines of the electronic expansion valve and power lines of the temperature sensing bag.

[0105] The wire passing cavity 101 comprises a first wire passing cavity 1011. The first wire passing cavity 1011 can be arranged below one end of the accommodation through slot 4. At least part of the first wire harness 61 is routed along the first wire passing cavity 1011 so that the first wire harness 61 passes from below the accommodation through slot 4.

[0106] The first wire harness 61 connects the compressor 32 and the electronic control box 5, so that the electronic control box 5 can control the start and stop of the compressor 32 and the working frequency. The first wire harness 61 connects the electronic expansion valve, so that the electronic control box 5 can control the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve. The first wire harness 61 connects the temperature sensing bag and the electronic control box 5, so that the electronic control box 5 can obtain the exhaust temperature of the compressor 32, and can adjust the working parameters of the compressor 32 according to the exhaust temperature of the compressor 32, to realize the stable operation of the compressor 32. The first wire harness 61 is wired from the first wire passing cavity 1011 below the accommodation slot 4, the wiring distance is short, the wiring cost can be reduced, and at the same time, the first wire passing cavity 1011 also protects the first wire harness 61.

[0107] In an illustrative embodiment, as shown in Figure 3 、 4 , the first wire passing cavity 1011 is located below one end of the accommodation slot 4. The compressor 32 and the electronic control box 5 are respectively located on opposite sides of the first wire passing cavity 1011.

[0108] The compressor 32 and the electronic control box 5 are respectively located on opposite sides of the first wire passing cavity 1011, and the two ends of the first wire harness 61 are respectively connected to the compressor 32 and the electronic control box 5, and pass through the accommodation slot 4 below through the first wire passing cavity 1011, so that the length of the first wire harness 61 can be greatly shortened, and the wiring cost of the first wire harness 61 can be reduced. At the same time, the compressor 32 and the electronic control box 5 are arranged close to the same end of the accommodation slot 4, which is more conducive to the layout of the first fan, the second fan 34, the first heat exchanger 21 and the second heat exchanger 31, and can make the air conditioner 100 more compact.

[0109] In an illustrative embodiment, as shown in Figure 3 、 4 , the base module 1 includes a base plate 11. The first module 2 and the second module 3 are arranged on the upper surface of the base plate 11. The base plate 11 includes a base plate body 111. The base plate body 111 can be configured as a substantially square disc.

[0110] The base plate body 111 is provided with a water collecting groove 1111 and a water hitting groove 1112. The water collecting groove 1111 and the water hitting groove 1112 are both downwardly recessed grooves. The water collecting groove 1111 and the water hitting groove 1112 are connected to each other. The water collecting groove 1111 is arranged below the first heat exchanger 21. The shape of the water collecting groove 1111 can be the same as the shape of the projection of the first heat exchanger 21 on the base plate body 111, for example, both are configured as U-shaped. The water hitting groove 1112 is located below the second heat exchanger 31. The height of the groove bottom of the water collecting groove 1111 can be greater than or equal to the height of the groove bottom of the water hitting groove 1112.

[0111] In some embodiments, the chassis 11 can further include a water bridge 115 disposed on the upper surface of the chassis body 111. The water bridge 115 is disposed below the accommodation channel 4. The water bridge 115 is located between the water collecting groove 1111 and the water hitting groove 1112. A water bridge hole 1151 is disposed between the water bridge 115 and the chassis body 111. The opposite ends of the water bridge hole 1151 are respectively communicated with the water collecting groove 1111 and the water hitting groove 1112. The water bridge hole 1151 connects the water collecting groove 1111 and the water hitting groove 1112.

[0112] The second module 3 further includes a water hitting wheel and a water hitting motor. The water hitting wheel is configured in a substantially disc shape. The water hitting wheel is mounted on the chassis body 111. The water hitting wheel is disposed above the chassis body 111. The axis of the water hitting wheel is horizontally disposed, and the water hitting wheel at least partially extends into the water hitting groove 1112. The water hitting motor is drivingly connected to the water hitting wheel. The water hitting motor can drive the water hitting wheel to rotate.

[0113] When the air conditioner 100 operates in the cooling mode, the surface temperature of the first heat exchanger 21 is low, and the water vapor in the air will condense into condensate droplets on the surface of the first heat exchanger 21 when it is cooled. The condensate droplets on the surface of the first heat exchanger 21 will drip into the water collecting groove 1111 under the action of force and be collected. The condensate in the water collecting groove 1111 will flow into the water hitting groove 1112 along the water bridge hole 1151. Since the water hitting wheel extends into the water hitting groove 1112, it can be in contact with the condensate in the water hitting groove 1112. When the water hitting motor drives the water hitting wheel to rotate, it can throw the condensate in the water hitting groove 1112 onto the second heat exchanger 31. The surface temperature of the second heat exchanger 31 is high when the air conditioner 100 operates in the cooling mode, and it can release heat to the condensate to evaporate the condensate. When the condensate is evaporated, it absorbs the heat released by the second heat exchanger 31, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the second heat exchanger 31 and further improving the energy efficiency of the air conditioner 100. At the same time, after the condensate is evaporated, the water quantity of the condensate in the water hitting groove 1112 can be reduced, and the condensate in the chassis 11 can be prevented from overflowing, so that a drain pipe is not needed to lead the condensate in the chassis 11 out of the air conditioner 100.

[0114] The second module 3 further includes a water level switch. The water level switch can be disposed in the water hitting groove 1112 or at one end of the water bridge hole 1151 close to the water hitting groove 1112. The water level switch can detect whether the water level in the water hitting groove 1112 reaches a preset threshold.

[0115] As Figure 5As shown, the connection harness 60 further comprises a second harness 62. The second harness 62 extends from the second fan 34, the water punching motor and / or the water level switch to the control box 5. The second harness 62 comprises power lines of the second fan 34, power lines of the water punching motor and signal lines of the water level switch. The control box 5 is configured to shut down the compressor 32 upon detecting that the water level in the water punching tank 1112 reaches a preset threshold.

[0116] The preset threshold can be set to be slightly less than the water level height at the water level switch when the condensed water overflows from either of the water punching tank 1112 and the water collecting tank 1111. When the water level in the water punching tank 1112 reaches the preset threshold, it indicates that the condensed water is at risk of overflowing the water punching tank 1112 or the water collecting tank 1111. At this time, the control box 5 shuts down the compressor 32, so that the first heat exchanger 21 reduces the rate of generating condensed water, while keeping the water punching wheel rotating to continuously consume the generated condensed water, thereby preventing the condensed water from overflowing in the case of very high air humidity.

[0117] The wire passing cavities 101 are provided in plurality, and the wire passing cavities 101 further comprise a second wire passing cavity 101.

[0118] In this way, the second harness 62 connects the second fan 34 with the control box 5, so that the control box 5 can control the on-off and rotating speed of the second fan 34. The second harness 62 connects the water punching motor, so that the control box 5 can control the on-off of the water punching motor. The second harness 62 connects the water level switch with the control box 5, so that the control box 5 can obtain information about whether the water level in the water punching tank 1112 reaches the preset threshold, and can adjust the on-off of the compressor 32 according to the information to avoid the condensed water from overflowing the bottom plate 11. The second harness 62 is routed from the second wire passing cavity 101 below the accommodation through slot 4, so that the routing distance is short, which can reduce the wiring cost, and meanwhile, the second wire passing cavity 101 also protects the second harness 62.

When the first fan is running, it draws in air from the first cavity 202 and delivers the air from the first cavity 202 to the outside of the housing 1 sequentially through the first air outlet and the first air outlet 134. After the first fan draws in air from the first cavity 202, the air pressure inside the first cavity 202 becomes negative, and air from outside the casing 1 enters the first cavity 202 through the first air inlet 201. That is, the first fan can drive air to flow through the first cavity 202.

[0157] The first heat exchanger 21 is arranged in the first cavity 202. The first heat exchanger 21 can be arranged on the side of the first fan close to the first air inlet 201.

The second fan 34 can suck the air from the second air inlet and output the air from the second air outlet when the second fan 34 is running. The second air inlet of the second fan 34 is connected to the second air outlet 302 of the second cavity 303, and the second air outlet of the second fan 34 is used to connect to the outdoor space. The second fan 34 can suck the air in the second cavity 303 and sequentially deliver the air in the second cavity 303 to the outside of the shell 1 through the second air outlet when the second fan 34 is running. After the second fan 34 sucks the air in the second cavity 303, the air pressure in the second cavity 303 is negative, and the air outside the shell 1 enters the second cavity 303 from the second air inlet 301. The second air outlet of the second fan 34 faces the side of the shell 1, and the air output from the second air outlet 302 of the second cavity 303 and entering the second fan 34 is delivered to the side of the shell 1 through the second air outlet.

The compressor 32 is communicated with the first heat exchanger 21 and the second heat exchanger 31 through the refrigerant pipe 64, and the refrigerant pipe 64, the first heat exchanger 21 and the second heat exchanger 31 can be pre-charged with refrigerant. The compressor 32 can drive the refrigerant to circulate between the first heat exchanger 21 and the second heat exchanger 31, so that the heat is transferred between the first heat exchanger 21 and the second heat exchanger 31 by the refrigerant as the carrier.
