Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioner technology, and more specifically, to a housing device and an air conditioner having the same. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, air conditioners are a common household appliance widely used in homes, offices, and public places. With the increasing prevalence of air conditioner use, users' demands for comfort in both cooling and heating modes are gradually increasing.

[0003] In existing technologies, manufacturers have designed reversible air-conditioning air conditioners to improve user experience. These air conditioners have two vents, one above the other, and utilize the principle of hot air rising and cold air sinking. When the air conditioner is cooling, hot air enters through the lower vent and cold air is blown out through the upper vent, allowing the cold air to sink naturally and avoiding direct airflow onto the body, thus improving user comfort. When the air conditioner is heating, cold air enters through the upper vent and hot air is blown out through the lower vent, causing the hot air to rise from below, creating a heating effect similar to underfloor heating, further enhancing user comfort. Reversible air-conditioning air conditioners effectively improve the cooling and heating efficiency of the air conditioner, thereby improving the uniformity of indoor temperature and ultimately enhancing the user experience.

[0004] However, compared to traditional air conditioners with filters installed at the rear, reversible air conditioners use a design that allows for flexible switching between two vents. This makes it impossible to install a filter at the rear, leading to dust easily being drawn in during operation and potentially causing damage. Installing filters at both vents would reduce the airflow, affecting the air conditioner's cooling and heating efficiency, and consequently impacting the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0052] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0053] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0054] In this utility model, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "upper" and "lower" are generally used in relation to the direction shown in the accompanying drawings, or in relation to the vertical, perpendicular, or gravitational direction; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "left" and "right" are generally used in relation to the left and right shown in the accompanying drawings; "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself, but the above directional terms are not used to limit this utility model.

[0055] To address the issue of poor user experience with reversible air-flow air conditioners in the prior art, this application provides a housing device and an air conditioner having the same.

[0056] like Figures 1 to 16 As shown, the housing assembly includes a housing 10, a filter assembly 20, and a support assembly 30. The housing 10 has a vent. The filter assembly 20 is disposed on the housing 10, and its position is adjustable to avoid or block the vent. The support assembly 30 is disposed on the housing 10, and the filter assembly 20 and the support assembly 30 are slidably engaged to guide the filter assembly 20 during movement via the support assembly 30.

[0057] Applying the technical solution of this embodiment, the housing 10 of the housing device has a vent. A filter assembly 20 is disposed on the housing 10, and the position of the filter assembly 20 is adjustable to avoid or block the vent. A support assembly 30 is disposed on the housing 10, and the filter assembly 20 and the support assembly 30 are slidably engaged so that the support assembly 30 guides the filter assembly 20 during its movement. In this way, when airflow enters the vent, the filter assembly 20 blocks the vent, allowing the filter assembly 20 to filter the airflow entering the vent and improve the indoor air quality; when airflow exits the vent, the filter assembly 20 avoids the vent, allowing the vent to deliver air normally, ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the vent's air delivery, realizing the free flow of airflow, thereby ensuring the air delivery efficiency and air delivery quality of the reversible air-supply air conditioner with this housing device, improving the user experience, and thus solving the problem of poor user experience when using reversible air-supply air conditioners in the prior art. Meanwhile, the way the support component 30 is arranged ensures that the filter assembly 20 can always move in a predetermined direction under the guidance of the support component 30, thus preventing the filter assembly 20 from deviating during movement and ensuring the reliability of the movement of the filter assembly 20.

[0058] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the supporting component 30 includes a first supporting structure 31, and the filter assembly 20 includes a first guiding structure 32. The first supporting structure 31 is disposed on the housing 10 and has a first guiding groove 311. At least a portion of the outer surface of the first guiding structure 32 contacts the inner wall of the first guiding groove 311 to guide the filter assembly 20 during its movement. In this way, the supporting component 30 supports the first guiding structure 32 during its movement through the first supporting structure 31, ensuring the reliability of the first guiding structure 32's movement. Simultaneously, the contact between the first guiding structure 32 and the first guiding groove 311 allows the filter assembly 20 to move along the extension direction of the first guiding groove 311 under the guidance of the first guiding structure 32, preventing the filter assembly 20 from deviating or jamming during movement and ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the filter assembly 20's movement.

[0059] like Figure 3 As shown, the housing device also includes a filter drive structure 40, which is disposed on the housing 10 and is driven to drive the filter assembly 20 to move. This configuration allows operators to move the filter assembly 20 simply by activating the filter drive structure 40, reducing workload and difficulty for operators and improving the efficiency and automation of the filter assembly 20's movement.

[0060] In this embodiment, the filter drive structure 40 is a motor.

[0061] like Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the housing device also includes a filter transmission assembly 50. The filter transmission assembly 50 includes a filter gear 51 and a filter rack 52. The filter drive structure 40 is driven by the filter gear 51 to drive its rotation. The filter rack 52 is mounted on the filter screen assembly 20 and meshes with the filter gear 51 to move the filter screen assembly 20. A first guide structure 32 is mounted on the filter rack 52 to allow at least a portion of the filter rack 52 to move within a first guide groove 311. Thus, the driving force of the filter drive structure 40 is transmitted to the filter screen assembly 20 through the rotation of the filter gear 51 and the transmission engagement between the filter gear 51 and the filter rack 52, thereby ensuring the reliability of the filter screen assembly 20's movement, guaranteeing its response efficiency and accuracy, and improving the automation level of the housing device. Meanwhile, the first guide structure 32 is arranged in the way that the filter rack 52 can move within the first guide groove 311 and always move along the extension direction of the first guide groove 311, thereby avoiding the offset and jamming of the filter rack 52 during the movement process, ensuring the transmission accuracy and reliability of the filter rack 52, and thus improving the movement accuracy and stability of the filter assembly 20.

[0062] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the housing assembly also includes a baffle structure 60. The baffle structure 60 is disposed on the housing 10 and located on the side of the filter assembly 20 near the vent. The baffle structure 60 is adjustable relative to the vent to open or close the vent. Thus, when the vent is operating, the baffle structure 60 opens the vent, ensuring reliable airflow; when the vent is not operating, the baffle structure 60 closes the vent, preventing impurities from entering the housing 10 and adhering to the filter assembly 20, ensuring the cleanliness of the housing 10 and the filter assembly 20. This guarantees the reliability and cleanliness of the filter assembly 20, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the air conditioner and further improving indoor air quality.

[0063] like Figures 1 to 8As shown, the supporting assembly 30 further includes a second supporting structure 33, and the baffle structure 60 includes a second guide structure 34. The second supporting structure 33 is disposed on the housing 10 and has a second guide groove 331. At least a portion of the outer surface of the second guide structure 34 contacts the inner wall of the second guide groove 331 to guide the baffle structure 60 during its movement. In this way, the supporting assembly 30 supports the second guide structure 34 during its movement through the second supporting structure 33, ensuring the reliability of the second guide structure 34's movement. Simultaneously, the contact between the second guide structure 34 and the second guide groove 331 allows the baffle structure 60 to move along the extension direction of the second guide groove 331 under the guidance of the second guide structure 34, preventing the baffle structure 60 from deviating or jamming during movement and ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the baffle structure 60's movement.

[0064] like Figure 3 As shown, the housing device also includes a baffle drive structure 70, which is disposed on the housing 10 and is drivenly connected to the baffle structure 60 to drive the baffle structure 60 to move. In this way, the above arrangement allows the operator to move the baffle structure 60 simply by activating the baffle drive structure 70, reducing the operator's workload and difficulty, and improving the efficiency and automation of the baffle structure 60's movement.

[0065] In this embodiment, the baffle drive structure 70 is a motor.

[0066] like Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the housing device also includes a baffle transmission assembly 80. The baffle transmission assembly 80 includes a baffle gear 81 and a baffle rack 82. A baffle drive structure 70 is driven by the baffle gear 81 to drive its rotation. The baffle rack 82 is mounted on the baffle structure 60 and meshes with the baffle gear 81 to move the baffle structure 60. A second guide structure 34 is mounted on the baffle rack 82 to allow at least a portion of the baffle rack 82 to move within a second guide groove 331. Thus, the driving force of the baffle drive structure 70 drives the baffle gear 81 to rotate, and through the transmission between the baffle gear 81 and the baffle rack 82, the driving force is transmitted to the baffle structure 60 to realize its movement. This ensures the reliability of the baffle structure 60's movement, guarantees its response efficiency and accuracy, and improves the automation level of the housing device. Meanwhile, the arrangement of the second guide structure 34 in the baffle rack 82 allows the baffle rack 82 to move within the second guide groove 331 and always move along the extension direction of the second guide groove 331, thereby avoiding deviation and jamming during the movement of the baffle rack 82, ensuring the transmission accuracy and reliability of the baffle rack 82, and thus improving the movement accuracy and stability of the baffle structure 60.

[0067] In this embodiment, the support assembly 30 further includes a support housing 10. A second support structure 33 is disposed on the housing 10, and a first support structure 31 is disposed on the end of the second support structure 33 away from the housing 10. The support housing 10 is disposed on the end of the first support structure 31 away from the second support structure 33. The inner wall of the first support structure 31 and the second support structure 33 form a space to accommodate the baffle drive structure 70 and the baffle gear 81. The inner wall of the support housing 10 and the first support structure 31 form a space to accommodate the filter drive structure 40 and the filter gear 51. Thus, the second support structure 33 ensures the installation stability of the first support structure 31 and the support housing 10, thereby ensuring the operational reliability of the filter drive structure 40, the baffle drive structure 70, the filter gear 51, the filter rack 52, the baffle gear 81, and the baffle rack 82, and consequently ensuring the motion reliability and stability of the filter assembly 20 and the baffle structure 60. Simultaneously, the above arrangement also saves space occupied by the support assembly 30, making the support assembly 30 more compact and optimizing the structural layout of the housing device.

[0068] Specifically, the baffle drive structure 70 is disposed on the first bearing structure 31, and the filter drive structure 40 is disposed on the bearing housing 10.

[0069] like Figure 3 , Figure 9 and Figure 11 As shown, the housing assembly also includes a support component 90, which includes a support structure 91, a filter guide rail 92, and a baffle guide rail 93. The support structure 91 is mounted on the housing 10. The filter guide rail 92 is mounted on the support structure 91, allowing the filter assembly 20 to be movably mounted on it. The baffle guide rail 93 is mounted on the support structure 91, allowing the baffle structure 60 to be movably mounted on it. This arrangement of the filter guide rail 92 provides a clear movement path for the filter assembly 20. By moving along the filter guide rail 92, the filter assembly 20 switches between blocking and avoiding the vent, ensuring the filtration reliability of the filter assembly 20 and the ventilation reliability of the vent. Simultaneously, the arrangement of the baffle guide rail 93 provides a clear movement path for the baffle structure 60. By moving along the baffle guide rail 93, the baffle structure 60 switches between opening and closing the vent, ensuring the blocking reliability of the baffle structure 60 and the ventilation reliability of the vent. Meanwhile, the way the support structure 91 is set up can provide stable support for the filter guide rail 92 and the baffle guide rail 93, thereby ensuring the movement stability and reliability of the installation structure 21 and the baffle structure 60.

[0070] like Figure 11As shown, the filter guide rail 92 is located on the side of the baffle guide rail 93 away from the vent. The filter guide rail 92 and the baffle guide rail 93 are arranged relatively parallel to each other to improve the structural compactness of the housing 10 assembly.

[0071] In this embodiment, two filter guide rails 92 are provided, and the two filter guide rails 92 are arranged opposite to each other on the support structure 91 to improve the movement stability of the mounting structure 21.

[0072] It should be noted that the number of filter guide rails 92 is not limited to this and can be adjusted according to working conditions and usage requirements. Optionally, the number of filter guide rails 92 can be three, four, five, seven, or more.

[0073] In this embodiment, two baffle guide rails 93 are provided, and the two baffle guide rails 93 are arranged opposite to each other on the support structure 91 to improve the movement stability of the baffle structure 60.

[0074] It should be noted that the number of baffle guide rails 93 is not limited to this and can be adjusted according to working conditions and usage requirements. Optionally, the number of baffle guide rails 93 can be three, four, five, seven, or more.

[0075] In this embodiment, the first guide groove 311 and the second guide groove 331 are arranged in parallel, and the extension direction of the first guide groove 311 is parallel to the extension direction of the filter guide rail 92.

[0076] like Figure 9 As shown, the support structure 91 has a first snap-fit ​​portion 911, and the housing device also includes a grille structure 100, which has a second snap-fit ​​portion 101. The first snap-fit ​​portion 911 and the second snap-fit ​​portion 101 are snapped together. This arrangement of the grille structure 100 prevents small animals from entering the housing 10, avoiding damage to the air conditioner and further improving its operational safety. Simultaneously, the arrangement of the first snap-fit ​​portion 911 and the second snap-fit ​​portion 101 enables a detachable connection between the grille structure 100 and the support structure 91, facilitating maintenance and cleaning of the grille structure 100 by personnel.

[0077] Optionally, the grille structure 100 is disposed between the baffle structure 60 and the filter assembly 20, or the grille structure 100 is disposed on the side of the filter assembly 20 away from the vent.

[0078] like Figure 10As shown, the first clamping portion 911 includes at least two clamping arms 9111, and a clamping recess is formed around between the at least two clamping arms 9111. The second clamping portion 101 has a clamping projection 1011. When the clamping projection 1011 extends into the clamping recess, the free ends of the at least two clamping arms 9111 clamp at least a part of the clamping projection 1011. In this way, the above setting further defines that the first clamping portion 911 is a clamping recess and the second clamping portion 101 is a clamping projection. When the clamping projection 1011 extends into the clamping recess, the two clamping arms 9111 can clamp the clamping projection 1011, thereby ensuring the clamping stability between the second clamping portion 101 and the first clamping portion 911, and further improving the installation stability and protection reliability of the grille structure 100.

[0079] In this embodiment, the number of the clamping arms 9111 is two.

[0080] It should be noted that the number of the clamping arms 9111 is not limited to this, and can be adjusted according to the working conditions and usage requirements. Optionally, the number of the clamping arms 9111 is three, or four, or five, or seven, or more.

[0081] As Figure 9 shown, the support structure 91 is in a frame shape. The support structure 91 includes a support portion. The support portion is in a "mouth" shape and is arranged at the ventilation opening. Two first clamping portions 911 are arranged on the bottom plate of the support portion, and three pin holes are arranged on the top plate of the support portion. The three pin holes are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the top plate of the support portion.

[0082] As Figure 9 shown, two second clamping portions 101 are arranged at one end of the grille structure 100 close to the first clamping portion 911. The two second clamping portions 101 are arranged corresponding to the two first clamping portions 911 one by one. Three pins are arranged at one end of the grille structure 100 close to the pin holes. The three pins are arranged corresponding to the three pin holes one by one.

[0083] Specifically, when the staff installs the grille structure 100, first insert the pins on the grille structure 100 into the pin holes, and then insert the clamping projections 1011 on the grille structure 100 into the clamping recess, thus completing the installation of the grille structure 100; when the staff needs to disassemble the grille structure 100, lift the grille structure 100, pull out the clamping projections 1011 from the clamping recess, and then pull out the pins of the grille structure 100 from the pin holes, thus completing the disassembly of the grille structure 100.

[0084] As Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, the filter assembly 20 includes a mounting structure 21 and a filter structure 22. The mounting structure 21 is movably mounted on the filter guide rail 92 and has a first mating portion 211. The filter structure 22, used for filtering airflow, has a second mating portion 221. One of the first mating portions 211 and the second mating portion 221 is a mating protrusion, and the other is a mating recess. The mating protrusion extends into the mating recess and engages with it. In this way, the filter assembly 20 achieves a movable connection with the filter guide rail 92 through the mounting structure 21, and achieves filtration of the airflow entering the vent through the filter structure 22. Simultaneously, the arrangement of the first mating portion 211 and the second mating portion 221 allows the filter structure 22 to be snapped onto the mounting structure 21, realizing the installation and disassembly of the filter structure 22, facilitating the cleaning and maintenance of the filter device, improving the filtration reliability of the filter structure 22, and extending the service life of the filter structure 22.

[0085] In this embodiment, the first mating part 211 is a recess, and the second mating part 221 is a protrusion.

[0086] like Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the first mating part 211 is a through hole, and the second mating part 221 is inserted into the through hole to engage with the first mating part 211.

[0087] In this embodiment, there are multiple first mating parts 211, and the multiple first mating parts 211 are arranged around the circumference of the mounting structure 21.

[0088] In this embodiment, there are multiple second mating parts 221, and the multiple second mating parts 221 are arranged around the circumference of the filter structure 22.

[0089] In this embodiment, the filter structure 22 is a filter screen.

[0090] Specifically, when installing the filter structure 22, the worker inserts the second mating part 221 of the filter structure 22 into the first mating part 211. The filter structure 22 can produce a slight elastic deformation to complete the installation of the filter structure 22. When the worker disassembles the filter structure 22, by slightly squeezing the filter structure 22, the second mating part 221 is pulled out from the first mating part 211 by means of the elastic deformation of the filter structure 22, thereby realizing the disassembly of the filter structure 22 for maintenance and cleaning.

[0091] In this embodiment, the grille structure 100 is disposed between the baffle structure 60 and the filter assembly 20. After the operator removes the grille structure 100 from the support structure 91, the filter structure 22 can be removed from the mounting structure 21 to achieve the maintenance and cleaning of the filter structure 22.

[0092] like Figure 13 As shown, the filter guide rail 92 has a mounting guide groove, and the mounting structure 21 has a mounting guide post 212. The mounting guide post 212 is inserted into the mounting guide groove and slidably disposed along the extension direction of the mounting guide groove; and / or, the baffle guide rail 93 has a baffle guide groove, and the baffle structure 60 has a baffle guide post. The baffle guide post is inserted into the baffle guide groove and slidably disposed along the extension direction of the baffle guide groove. Thus, the sliding engagement between the mounting guide post 212 and the mounting guide groove enables the movement of the mounting structure 21 on the filter guide rail 92, reduces the friction of the mounting structure 21 during movement, and ensures the smoothness and stability of the movement of the mounting structure 21. Simultaneously, the sliding engagement between the baffle guide post and the baffle guide groove enables the movement of the baffle structure 60 on the baffle guide rail 93, reduces the friction of the baffle structure 60 during movement, and ensures the smoothness and stability of the movement of the baffle structure 60.

[0093] like Figure 16 As shown, the ventilation opening includes an upper air inlet 11 and a lower air inlet 12. A filter assembly 20 is disposed at the lower air inlet 12 to block or avoid the lower air outlet. Thus, with the filter assembly 20 positioned at the lower air inlet 12, when the lower air inlet 12 is in the air intake state, it can filter the airflow entering the lower air inlet 12, ensuring the cleanliness of the airflow entering from the lower air inlet 12; when the lower air inlet 12 is in the air outlet state, the filter assembly 20 can avoid obstructing the airflow delivered from the lower air inlet 12, ensuring smooth airflow from the lower air inlet 12.

[0094] Specifically, the ventilation opening includes an upwind opening 11 and a downwind opening 12. There are two filter screen assemblies 20, one of which is located at the upwind opening 11 and the other of which is located at the downwind opening 12, so that the two filter screen assemblies 20 respectively block or avoid the upwind opening 11 and the downwind opening 12. In this way, when the upper air vent 11 and the lower air vent 12 are in different air supply and intake states, the two filter components 20 can adjust their positions accordingly. When the upper air vent 11 is in the intake state and the lower air vent 12 is in the exhaust state, the filter component 20 located at the upper air vent 11 blocks the vent to filter the airflow from the upper air vent 11, while the filter component 20 located at the lower air vent 12 avoids the vent to ensure smooth airflow from the lower air vent 12. When the upper air vent 11 is in the exhaust state and the lower air vent 12 is in the intake state, the filter component 20 located at the upper air vent 11 avoids the vent to ensure smooth airflow from the upper air vent 11, while the filter component 20 located at the lower air vent 12 blocks the vent to filter the airflow from the lower air vent 12. This ensures that the air conditioner with the casing can maintain air cleanliness and airflow efficiency in any air supply mode, further improving indoor environmental comfort and enhancing the user experience.

[0095] Specifically, the housing device also includes two drive mechanisms, which respectively drive the two filter screen assemblies 20, so that the two filter screen assemblies 20 can be controlled independently. In this way, the two drive mechanisms drive the two filter screen assemblies 20 respectively, enabling the two filter screen assemblies 20 to work independently, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the movement of the filter screen assemblies 20.

[0096] like Figure 1 , Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, this application also provides an air conditioner, which includes the aforementioned housing assembly. In this embodiment, the air conditioner is a reversible air supply air conditioner.

[0097] Specifically, when the reversible air-conditioning unit is cooling, the baffle structures 60 installed at the upper and lower air vents 12 both open their corresponding upper air vents 11 and lower air vents 12. The filter assembly 20 installed at the upper air vent 11 avoids the upper air vent 11, and the filter assembly 20 installed at the lower air vent 12 blocks the lower air vent 12. The hot air entering the lower air vent 12 is filtered by the filter structure 22 and then enters the air conditioner. After being cooled, it is blown out from the upper air vent 11. When the reversible air-conditioning unit is heating, the baffle structures 60 installed at the upper and lower air vents 12 both open their corresponding upper air vents 11 and lower air vents 12. The filter assembly 20 installed at the lower air vent 12 avoids the lower air vent 12, and the filter assembly 20 installed at the upper air vent 11 blocks the upper air vent. 11. The cold air entering the upper air vent 11 is filtered by the filter structure 22 and then enters the air conditioner. After being heated, it is blown out from the lower air vent 12. When the reversible air supply air conditioner is turned off, the baffle structures 60 set at the upper and lower air vents 12 close the corresponding upper air vent 11 and lower air vent 12. When the reversible air supply air conditioner needs to be cleaned, the baffle structures 60 set at the upper and lower air vents 12 open the corresponding upper air vent 11 and lower air vent 12, and the filter screen assemblies 20 set at the upper and lower air vents 12 block the corresponding upper air vent 11 and lower air vent 12. After the staff removes the grille structure 100 from the support structure 91, they remove the filter structure 22 from the installation structure 21 and perform maintenance and cleaning on the filter structure 22.

[0098] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiments of this utility model achieve the following technical effects:

[0099] The housing of the enclosure device has a vent. A filter assembly is mounted on the housing, and its position is adjustable to avoid or block the vent. A support assembly is mounted on the housing, and the filter assembly slides in conjunction with the support assembly to guide the filter assembly during its movement. Thus, when air enters the vent, the filter assembly blocks the vent, allowing it to filter the incoming air and improve indoor air quality; when air exits the vent, the filter assembly avoids the vent, allowing the vent to deliver air normally, ensuring smooth and reliable airflow and enabling free air circulation. This guarantees the air delivery efficiency and quality of the reversible air-conditioning unit with this housing device, improving the user experience and solving the problem of poor user experience in existing reversible air-conditioning units. Furthermore, the support assembly's positioning ensures that the filter assembly always moves in a predetermined direction under its guidance, preventing deviation during movement and guaranteeing the reliability of the filter assembly's movement.
