[0024] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0025] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, describes an air conditioner cabinet unit 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figures 1-9As shown, the air conditioner cabinet unit 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes an air duct 2 and a protective net 1.
[0026] The protective net 1 includes a net body 11 and a first crossbeam 12. The net body 11 is fitted with the air duct 2, and the first crossbeam 12 is located on the net body 11. The first crossbeam 12 is connected to the air duct 2 and has ventilation holes 121. The ventilation holes 121 pass through the first crossbeam 12 along the air outlet direction (preset direction) of the air duct 2.
[0027] The air outlet direction of duct 2 is the direction of airflow (cold air, hot air) within duct 2. For example, the air outlet direction of duct 2 can be front-to-back, meaning the air within duct 2 generally flows from back to front. The air outlet direction of duct 2 can also be left-to-right, meaning the air within duct 2 generally flows from right to left or from left to right. Furthermore, the air outlet direction of duct 2 can also be at a predetermined angle to the front-to-back or left-to-right direction, so that the air within duct 2 generally flows from back to front and side.
[0028] Since the ventilation hole 121 extends through the first crossbeam 12 along the air outlet direction of the air duct 2, the air in the air duct 2 can pass through the ventilation hole 121, that is, the air in the air duct 2 can pass through the first crossbeam 12. This can increase the airflow at the first crossbeam 12, reduce the obstruction of the air outlet of the air duct 2 by the first crossbeam 12, and thus reduce the condensation at the first crossbeam 12.
[0029] According to the present utility model, the air conditioner cabinet 100 provides ventilation holes 121 on the first crossbeam 12 of the protective net 1, so that the air in the air duct 2 can pass through the ventilation holes 121, thereby increasing the air flow at the first crossbeam 12 and reducing condensation at the first crossbeam 12.
[0030] Therefore, the air conditioner cabinet unit 100 according to the present utility model has the advantages of reducing condensation at the first crossbeam 12 of the protective net 1 and preventing pollution of the ground and walls.
[0031] like Figures 1-9 As shown, the air conditioner unit 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an air duct 2 and a protective net 1. The air duct 2 cooperates with the fan (not shown) of the air conditioner unit 100 to deliver cold or hot air. The protective net 1 is disposed in the air duct 2 to prevent the user's hands from touching the high-speed rotating fan, thereby improving the safety of the air conditioner unit 100. The protective net 1 can be installed in a known manner, for example, by being disposed in the air duct 2.
[0032] like Figures 1-5As shown, the protective net 1 includes a net body 11 and a first crossbeam 12. The net body 11 cooperates with the air duct 2 to block the user's hand, preventing the user's hand from entering the air duct 2, and thus preventing the user's hand from contacting the high-speed rotating fan. Optionally, the net body 11 is located in the air duct 2 for easier and more stable installation of the net body 11 (protective net 1).
[0033] The first horizontal beam 12 is connected to the mesh 11. The first horizontal beam 12 is generally horizontally arranged, for example, the first horizontal beam 12 extends in the left-right direction. The vertical direction is as follows... Figure 1 As shown by arrow E in the image, the left and right directions are as follows: Figure 1 As shown by arrow F in the image, the forward and backward directions are as follows: Figure 4 As indicated by arrow G in the diagram.
[0034] Optionally, the net body 11 and the first crossbeam 12 are integrally injection molded to improve the structural strength of the protective net 1 and reduce the manufacturing difficulty and cost of the protective net 1.
[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, there are multiple first crossbeams 12, which are spaced apart in the vertical direction to further improve the structural strength of the protective net 1.
[0036] The first crossbeam 12 is provided with ventilation holes 121, which extend through the first crossbeam 12 along the air outlet direction of the air duct 2. For example, the ventilation holes 121 extend through the first crossbeam 12 in the front-to-back direction. Air in the air duct 2 can pass through the ventilation holes 121 to reduce the obstruction of the air in the air duct 2 by the first crossbeam 12. This increases airflow at the first crossbeam 12, reduces the obstruction of the air outlet of the air duct 2 by the first crossbeam 12, reduces the amount of air stagnating at the first crossbeam 12, and thus reduces condensation at the first crossbeam 12.
[0037] like Figures 2-5 As shown, the first crossbeam 12 includes a first horizontal plate 122, a second horizontal plate 123, and a vertical plate 124. The first horizontal plate 122 and the second horizontal plate 123 are spaced apart along the height direction of the mesh body 11. For example, the first horizontal plate 122 and the second horizontal plate 123 are spaced apart along the vertical direction. The vertical plate 124 connects the first horizontal plate 122 and the second horizontal plate 123. For example, the vertical plate 124 is connected to each of the first horizontal plate 122 and the second horizontal plate 123. A ventilation hole 121 is provided in the vertical plate 124. This allows for a more rational structure of the first crossbeam 12.
[0038] Optionally, the first horizontal plate 122 and the second horizontal plate 123 are arranged substantially horizontally, and the vertical plate 124 is arranged substantially vertically. This makes the structure of the first horizontal beam 12 more reasonable. The height direction of the mesh 11 is consistent with the height direction of the air conditioner cabinet 100, that is, the height direction of the mesh 11 is consistent with the height direction of the air conditioner cabinet 100.
[0039] like Figures 2-5 As shown, multiple ventilation holes 121 are spaced apart along the width direction of the air duct 2. That is, the vertical plate 124 is provided with multiple ventilation holes 121, which are spaced apart along the length direction of the vertical plate 124 (the width direction of the mesh 11). This allows air in the air duct 2 to pass through the ventilation holes 121 more easily and fully, thereby further increasing the airflow at the first crossbeam 12, further reducing the obstruction of the first crossbeam 12 to the air in the air duct 2, ensuring ventilation effect, and further reducing condensation at the first crossbeam 12.
[0040] Optionally, the opening area of the ventilation hole 121 is greater than or equal to 6 square millimeters and less than or equal to 8 square millimeters. This not only ensures that the air in the air duct 2 can easily pass through the ventilation hole 121 to further reduce condensation at the first crossbeam 12, but also ensures the structural strength of the first crossbeam 12.
[0041] Alternatively, the opening area of the ventilation hole 121 is greater than or equal to 6.5 square millimeters and less than or equal to 7.5 square millimeters. This not only allows air in the air duct 2 to pass through the ventilation hole 121 more easily, thereby further reducing condensation at the first crossbeam 12, but also does not reduce the structural strength of the first crossbeam 12.
[0042] For example, the ventilation hole 121 can be a circular hole with a diameter greater than or equal to 2.9 mm and less than or equal to 3.1 mm. This not only allows air in the air duct 2 to pass through the ventilation hole 121 more easily, thereby further reducing condensation at the first crossbeam 12, but also does not reduce the structural strength of the first crossbeam 12.
[0043] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 9As shown, a second crossbeam 23 is connected to the air outlet of the air duct 2. The second crossbeam 23 is located between the first cross plate 122 and the second cross plate 123, that is, the first crossbeam 12 is fitted onto the second crossbeam 23. By connecting the second crossbeam 23 to the air outlet of the air duct 2, not only can the louvers be installed more conveniently and stably, but the strength of the air duct 2 can also be effectively enhanced. By positioning the second crossbeam 23 between the first cross plate 122 and the second cross plate 123, the first crossbeam 12 and the second cross beam 23 can be arranged more compactly, thereby improving the structural compactness of the air conditioning unit 100. Figures 3-5 As shown, a receiving cavity 126 is defined between the first horizontal plate 122, the second horizontal plate 123 and the vertical plate 124, and the second horizontal beam 23 of the air duct 2 is received in the receiving cavity 126.
[0044] Optionally, the second crossbeam 23 and the vertical plate 124 are spaced apart along the air outlet direction of the air duct 2. This prevents the second crossbeam 23 from obstructing or blocking the ventilation holes 121 on the vertical plate 124, allowing air in the air duct 2 to pass through the ventilation holes 121 more easily and fully, ensuring ventilation performance and further reducing condensation at the first crossbeam 12. The swashplate support 233 of the second crossbeam 23 can extend out of the receiving cavity 126 through the clearance groove 125.
[0045] For example, the second crossbeam 23 of the air duct 2 is located behind the vertical plate 124, and the front end face of the second crossbeam 23 of the air duct 2 and the rear end face of the vertical plate 124 are spaced apart by a preset distance in the air outlet direction of the air duct 2.
[0046] Optionally, a blade support 233 is fixed to the side of the second crossbeam 23 near the vertical plate 124. A clearance groove 125 is provided at the position opposite to the vertical plate 124 and the blade support 233, and the clearance groove 125 passes through the first crossbeam 122 and the second crossbeam 123. By providing the clearance groove 125 at the position opposite to the vertical plate 124 and the blade support 233, the blade support 233 of the second crossbeam 23 can extend out of the clearance groove 125, so that the blade can be more easily installed on the blade support 233 of the second crossbeam 23.
[0047] like Figures 2-5 As shown, the first horizontal plate 122 has a first upstream end 1221 and a first downstream end 1222 opposite to each other in the air outlet direction of the air duct 2, and the second horizontal plate 123 has a second upstream end 1231 and a second downstream end 1232 opposite to each other in the air outlet direction of the air duct 2. The vertical plate 124 is connected to the first downstream end 1222 and the second downstream end 1232, and the clearance groove 125 extends through the first downstream end 1222 and the second downstream end 1232 along the height direction of the mesh body 11. This allows the clearance groove 125 to also avoid the swing blades (air guide plates), making it easier and more convenient to install the swing blades, and also making the structure of the air conditioning unit 100 more compact.
[0048] like Figures 2-5 As shown, the first upstream end 1221 can be the rear end of the first horizontal plate 122, and the first downstream end 1222 can be the front end of the first horizontal plate 122. The second upstream end 1231 can be the rear end of the second horizontal plate 123, and the second downstream end 1232 can be the front end of the second horizontal plate 123.
[0049] The first downstream end 1222 may be provided with a first clearance groove 1223, the front end of which is open, and the first clearance groove 1223 extends vertically through the first downstream end 1222 (first horizontal plate 122). The first clearance groove 1223 forms part of the clearance groove 125. The second downstream end 1232 may be provided with a second clearance groove 1233, the front end of which is open, and the second clearance groove 1233 extends vertically through the second downstream end 1232 (second horizontal plate 123). The second clearance groove 1233 forms another part of the clearance groove 125. This makes the structure of the second horizontal beam 23 and the protective net 1 more reasonable.
[0050] Optionally, a notch 212 is provided on the wall surface at the air outlet of the air duct 2, and the notch 212 runs through the air duct 2 along the air outlet direction of the air duct 2. This can effectively eliminate the "Coanda effect" on the wall surface at the air outlet of the air duct 2.
[0051] like Figure 1 as well as Figures 4-9 As shown, the air duct 2 includes a first plate 21 and a second plate 22. Optionally, the first plate 21 can be one of the volute tongue and the volute shell, and the second plate 22 can be the other of the volute tongue and the volute shell. The first plate 21 includes an arc surface 211, and the arc surface 211 is provided with a notch 212, which is adjacent to the first crossbeam 12. That is, the notch 212 is provided on the portion of the arc surface 211 adjacent to the first crossbeam 12. This eliminates the "Coanda effect" on the portion of the arc surface 211 adjacent to the first crossbeam 12, that is, the notch 212 can eliminate the "Coanda effect" on the portion of the arc surface 211 adjacent to the first crossbeam 12, thereby further reducing the obstruction of the first crossbeam 12 to the air in the air duct 2, preventing the air outlet at the air duct 2 from adhering to the arc surface 211 and blowing out, so as to reduce condensation at the arc surface 211.
[0052] Optionally, the end of the first crossbeam 12 is opposite to the notch 212, and at least part of the end of the first crossbeam 12 covers the notch 212. This prevents the notch 212 from being exposed, thus making the air conditioner unit 100 more aesthetically pleasing. Moreover, by making the end of the first crossbeam 12 opposite to the notch 212, the obstruction of the first crossbeam 12 to the air in the air duct 2 can be further reduced, thereby further reducing condensation at the first crossbeam 12.
[0053] like Figure 5 As shown, the first portion 127 of this end of the first crossbeam 12 is opposite to the notch 212 in the air outlet direction of the air duct 2. The first portion 127 of this end of the first crossbeam 12 is located downstream of the notch 212 to cover the notch 212. This prevents the notch 212 from being exposed, thus making the air conditioner unit 100 more aesthetically pleasing. Moreover, by making the first portion 127 of this end of the first crossbeam 12 opposite to the notch 212 in the air outlet direction of the air duct 2, the obstruction of the first crossbeam 12 to the air in the air duct 2 can be further reduced, thereby further reducing condensation at the first crossbeam 12.
[0054] For example, the vertical plate 124 has a third end 1242 (e.g., the left end) and a fourth end 1243 (e.g., the right end) opposite each other in its length direction. The third end 1242 is opposite to the notch 212 in the front-back direction and is located in front of the notch 212 so as to cover the notch 212.
[0055] Optionally, a second crossbeam 23 is connected to the air outlet of the air duct 2, and the end of the second crossbeam 23 extends into the notch 212. This end of the second crossbeam 23 divides the notch 212 into a first sub-slot 2121 and a second sub-slot 2122. This can further eliminate the "Coanda effect" and thus further reduce condensation at the curved surface 211.
[0056] like Figures 6-9 As shown, the second crossbeam 23 of the air duct 2 has a first end 231 and a second end 232 opposite to each other in the width direction of the mesh 11. The first end 231 of the second crossbeam 23 is connected to the first plate 21, and the second end 232 of the second crossbeam 23 is connected to the second plate 22. A portion 2311 of the first end 231 is located in the notch 212, and the portion 2311 of the first end 231 divides the notch 212 into a first sub-slot 2121 and a second sub-slot 2122. This can further eliminate the "Coanda effect" and thus further reduce condensation at the first crossbeam 12 at the curved surface 211.
