Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of air conditioner technology, for example to a ceiling-mounted integrated unit. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, air conditioners have become an indispensable appliance, widely used in homes, businesses, and transportation, among other fields. In related technologies, an air conditioner consists of an indoor unit and an outdoor unit. The indoor unit is installed indoors and contains an evaporator, while the outdoor unit is installed outdoors and contains a condenser and a compressor. The indoor unit also has an electrical control box, which houses various electrical components and heat dissipation elements. The indoor unit's casing has an air inlet and an air outlet. Indoor air enters the casing through the air inlet and exchanges heat with the evaporator, then is blown into the room through the air outlet, thereby regulating the indoor temperature. During installation, the indoor unit is installed in a designated location according to the furniture layout, while the outdoor unit is installed on an outdoor mounting platform.

[0003] In the process of implementing the embodiments of this disclosure, at least the following problems were found in the related art:

[0004] Air conditioners have poor integration, and the indoor unit needs to be installed with a matching outdoor unit. This requires not only drilling holes in the wall to lay refrigerant pipes, but also reserving enough installation space outdoors.

[0005] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the background section above is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of this application, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art known to those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0006] To provide a basic understanding of some aspects of the disclosed embodiments, a brief summary is given below. This summary is not intended as a general commentary, nor is it intended to identify key / important components or describe the scope of protection of these embodiments, but rather as a prelude to the detailed description that follows.

[0007] This disclosure provides a ceiling-mounted integrated unit that solves the problem of poor integration in air conditioners.

[0008] In some embodiments, the integrated ceiling unit includes:

[0009] The casing includes a first compartment and a second compartment, and the first compartment is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet;

[0010] An evaporation module, located in the first room, includes an evaporator and a first fan;

[0011] The condensing module, located in the second chamber, includes a sleeve body; the sleeve body includes an inner tube and an outer tube, the outer tube is fitted onto the inner tube and a medium channel is formed between them, and the first end of the inner tube is connected to the first end of the evaporator; the medium channel is filled with a heat exchange medium, which is used to exchange heat with the refrigerant flowing through the inner tube.

[0012] The compressor module is located in the second chamber, with its exhaust port connected to the second end of the inner tube and its suction port connected to the second end of the evaporator.

[0013] The ceiling-mounted integrated unit provided in this disclosure can achieve the following technical effects:

[0014] The unit casing is suspended from the indoor ceiling, with both the evaporator and condenser modules housed within it. This eliminates the need for a separate outdoor unit and drilling into the exterior. When the first fan operates, indoor air enters the first chamber through the inlet, exchanges heat with the evaporator, and is then blown into the room through the outlet. Because the casing is suspended indoors, air cooling is not feasible for the condenser module; therefore, a shell-and-tube heat exchanger is used. The compressor's refrigerant flows from the exhaust port to the inner tube of the shell-and-tube unit, where it circulates within the medium channel, exchanging heat with the refrigerant inside the inner tube to meet the condenser module's heat exchange requirements. The refrigerant in the inner tube, after exchanging heat with the heat exchange medium, flows to the evaporator. The refrigerant in the evaporator then exchanges heat with the air in the first chamber before flowing back to the compressor module for recompression. This integrated ceiling-mounted unit combines the evaporator module, the shell-and-tube condenser module, and the compressor module into a single, highly integrated design. This design offers high integration, convenient installation, saves outdoor space, and provides high heat exchange efficiency.

[0038] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the present disclosure can be combined with each other.

[0039] The first embodiment of this application provides an air conditioner, also known as a ceiling-mounted integrated unit, which includes a casing 100, an evaporator module, a condenser module, and a compressor module. Figure 1 As shown, the casing 100 includes a first chamber 110 and a second chamber 120. The first chamber 110 is provided with an air inlet 111 and an air outlet 114. An evaporation module is disposed in the first chamber 110 and includes an evaporator 200 and a first fan 203. A condensation module is disposed in the second chamber 120 and includes a sleeve body 240. The sleeve body 240 includes an inner tube and an outer tube, with the outer tube fitted over the inner tube, forming a medium channel between them. The first end of the inner tube is connected to the first end of the evaporator 200. The medium channel is filled with a heat exchange medium used for heat exchange with the refrigerant flowing through the inner tube. A compressor module is disposed in the second chamber 120, with its exhaust port connected to the second end of the inner tube and its suction port connected to the second end of the evaporator 200.

[0040] In this embodiment, the casing 100 is suspended from the ceiling indoors, and both the evaporator module and the condenser module are housed within the casing 100. Therefore, there is no need for a separate outdoor unit and no need to drill holes outdoors. When the first fan 203 operates, indoor air enters the first chamber 110 through the air inlet 111, exchanges heat with the evaporator 200, and is then blown into the room through the air outlet 114. Since the casing 100 is suspended indoors, air cooling is not feasible for the condenser module; therefore, a sleeve heat exchanger is used. The refrigerant from the compressor flows from the exhaust port to the inner tube of the sleeve body 240, where it circulates within the medium channel using a heat exchange medium, such as water, to exchange heat with the refrigerant inside the inner tube, thus meeting the heat exchange requirements of the condenser module. After exchanging heat with the heat exchange medium, the refrigerant in the inner tube flows to the evaporator 200. The refrigerant in the evaporator 200 exchanges heat with the air in the first chamber 110 and then flows back to the compressor module for recompression. In this way, the ceiling-mounted integrated unit integrates the evaporation module, the condensation module with shell-and-tube heat exchange, and the compressor module into one integrated design. It has a high degree of integration and is easy to install, which can save outdoor space and has a high heat exchange efficiency.

[0041] Optionally, the sleeve body 240 is arranged in a spiral spiral from bottom to top. This spiral arrangement can enhance the structural stability of the sleeve body 240 and facilitates the arrangement of a longer sleeve body 240 within a limited space, thereby improving heat exchange performance.

[0042] Optionally, the medium channel has a medium inlet and a medium outlet, with the inlet being positioned lower than the outlet. Thus, when heat exchange is required, the heat exchange medium flows upwards from the inlet along the medium channel to the outlet. When the medium channel needs to be emptied, the inlet is opened, and the heat exchange medium is automatically discharged through the inlet under gravity.

[0043] Optionally, the main body 240 of the casing is coiled to form a first installation area in the middle, and the compressor is installed in the first installation area. In this way, the space of the second compartment 120 is fully utilized, which helps to reduce the volume of the casing 100.

[0044] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the compressor module includes a compressor body 250 and a vibration damping plate 260. The upper surface of the vibration damping plate 260 is provided with a first vibration damping component, and the lower surface of the vibration damping plate 260 is provided with a second vibration damping component. The compressor body 250 is mounted on the first vibration damping component, and the vibration damping plate 260 is mounted on the floor of the second compartment 120 via the second vibration damping component. This dual vibration damping scheme effectively reduces the vibration generated during compressor operation, meeting the noise reduction requirements for ceiling-mounted integrated units installed indoors.

[0045] Optionally, the first damping assembly includes a mounting bracket 263 and a first rubber ring 261. The mounting bracket 263 is used to place the compressor body 250. A first end of the first rubber ring 261 is connected to the upper surface of the damping plate 260, and a second end of the first rubber ring 261 is connected to the mounting bracket 263. In this way, the compressor body 250 and the damping plate 260 are damped by the first rubber ring 261.

[0046] Optionally, the mounting bracket 263 has four legs, and a corresponding first rubber ring 261 is arranged at each leg.

[0047] Optionally, the second damping assembly includes a second rubber ring 262. A first end of the second rubber ring 262 is connected to the lower surface of the damping plate 260, and a second end is connected to the bottom plate of the second compartment 120. Thus, the damping plate 260 and the bottom plate are damped by the second rubber ring 262.

[0048] Optionally, the damping plate 260 is constructed as a rectangle, and a corresponding second rubber ring 262 is arranged at each of the four corners.

[0049] Optionally, such as Figure 1 As shown, the evaporator 200 includes a first heat exchange section 210 and a second heat exchange section 220. The second heat exchange section 220 is bent and connected to the first heat exchange section 210, and a second mounting area is formed on the inner side of the bend. The first fan 203 is disposed in the second mounting area. In this way, the space of the first chamber 110 is fully utilized, which helps to reduce the volume of the casing 100.

[0050] Optionally, such as Figure 1 As shown, the first compartment 110 includes a first side panel 101 and a second side panel 102 facing each other, and the first side panel 101 and / or the second side panel 102 are provided with air inlets 111. Thus, with two air inlets 111, the one on the first side panel 101 is called the first air inlet 112, and the one on the second side panel 102 is called the second air inlet 113, which is beneficial to increase the air intake volume.

[0051] Optionally, such as Figure 1 As shown, the first chamber 110 is arranged adjacent to the second chamber 120 via a partition 106, and the partition 106 is provided with an auxiliary outlet 122. The second chamber 120 is provided with an auxiliary inlet 121, and the auxiliary inlet 121 is connected to the auxiliary outlet 122. The ceiling-mounted unit also includes an electrical control box 130, which is located on the side outside the housing 100 and is provided with a heat dissipation inlet 131 and a heat dissipation outlet 132, and the heat dissipation outlet 132 is connected to the auxiliary inlet 121. In this way, air can flow sequentially through the heat dissipation inlet 131, the heat dissipation outlet 132, the auxiliary inlet 121, and the auxiliary outlet 122 into the first chamber 110, thereby dissipating heat from the heat dissipation element 133 inside the electrical control box 130.

[0052] The second embodiment of this application provides an air conditioner, including a housing 100, an evaporator module, a condenser module, and an electrical control box 130. For example... Figure 3 As shown, the interior of the casing 100 is divided into a first chamber 110 and a second chamber 120 by a partition 106. The first chamber 110 is provided with a first air inlet 112 and an air outlet 114, and the second chamber 120 is provided with an auxiliary inlet 121. The partition 106 is provided with an auxiliary outlet 122, and the auxiliary inlet 121 and the auxiliary outlet 122 are connected. The evaporation module is disposed in the first chamber 110 and includes an evaporator 200 and a first fan 203. The condensation module is disposed in the second chamber 120. The electrical control box 130 is disposed on the side outside the casing 100 and is provided with a heat dissipation inlet 131 and a heat dissipation outlet 132, and the heat dissipation outlet 132 is connected to the auxiliary inlet 121.

[0053] In this embodiment, when the first fan 203 starts, indoor air enters the electrical control box 130 through the heat dissipation inlet 131, dissipates heat from the heat dissipation element 133, flows from the heat dissipation outlet 132 to the auxiliary inlet 121, and then enters the first chamber 110 through the auxiliary outlet 122. After exchanging heat with the evaporator 200, it is blown into the room from the air outlet 114. In this way, the electrical control box 130 is cooled through the above air path, and the cooled air can be blown back into the room after exchanging heat with the evaporator 200, thus the cooled air will not have a significant impact on the indoor temperature.

[0054] Optionally, such as Figure 1 As shown, the first compartment 110 includes a first side plate 101 and a second side plate 102, and the second compartment 120 includes a third side plate 103 and a fourth side plate 104. The third side plate 103 is connected to the first side plate 101, and the fourth side plate 104 is connected to the second side plate 102. The first end of the partition plate 106 is connected to the junction of the third side plate 103 and the first side plate 101, and the second end of the partition plate 106 is connected to the junction of the fourth side plate 104 and the second side plate 102. Thus, the structural stability of the housing 100 is enhanced through the connection relationship between the multiple side plates and the partition plate 106.

[0055] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, a corner plate 180 is provided in the second compartment 120, which encloses a corner space at the connection between the third side plate 103 and the central partition 106. The auxiliary outlet 122 is located at the first end of the central partition 106 within the corner space, and the auxiliary inlet 121 is located on the third side plate 103 within the corner space. This facilitates the rapid entry of air from the auxiliary inlet 121 into the auxiliary outlet 122.

[0056] Optionally, the first air inlet 112 is located at the connection between the first side plate 101 and the middle partition 106.

[0057] Optionally, the second side plate 102 is provided with a second air inlet 113, and the second air inlet 113 is located at the connection between the second side plate 102 and the middle partition 106.

[0058] Optionally, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first air inlet 112 is equipped with a controllable rotating first damper 171, and the auxiliary outlet 122 is equipped with a controllable rotating second damper 172. In this way, by controlling the rotation angle of the first damper 171 and the second damper 172, the air intake of the first air inlet 112 and the auxiliary outlet 122 can be adjusted.

[0059] Optionally, the air conditioner also includes a controller configured to control the opening state of the first damper 171 and the second damper 172 based on the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 within the control box 130.

[0060] Optionally, when the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 is less than or equal to a first temperature, the controller controls the first damper 171 to be fully open. When the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 is greater than the first temperature but less than or equal to a second temperature, the controller controls the first damper 171 to be partially open. When the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 is greater than the second temperature, the controller controls the first damper 171 to be closed.

[0061] In this embodiment, the opening states of the first damper 171 include fully open, partially open, and closed. Furthermore, as the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 gradually increases, the first damper 171 changes from fully open to partially open and finally closes. This reduces the airflow at the first damper 171, thereby increasing the airflow at the second damper 172.

[0062] Optionally, if the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 is greater than the third temperature, the controller controls the second damper 172 to be fully open. If the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 is greater than the fourth temperature but less than or equal to the third temperature, the controller controls the second damper 172 to be partially open. If the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 is less than or equal to the fourth temperature, the controller controls the second damper 172 to be closed.

[0063] In this embodiment, the opening states of the first damper 171 include fully open, partially open, and closed. Furthermore, as the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 gradually increases, the first damper 171 changes from closed to partially open and finally fully open. This helps to increase the airflow through the heat dissipation element 133, thereby improving heat dissipation efficiency.

[0064] Optionally, the first temperature is set to 50℃, and / or the second temperature is set to 75℃, and / or the third temperature is set to 30℃, and / or the fourth temperature is set to 15℃. For example, the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 is set to t. When t ≤ 15℃, the first damper 171 is fully open and the second damper 172 is closed. When 15℃ < t ≤ 30℃, the first damper 171 is fully open and the second damper 172 is partially open. When 30℃ < t ≤ 50℃, the first damper 171 is fully open and the second damper 172 is fully open. When 50℃ < t ≤ 75℃, the first damper 171 is partially open and the second damper 172 is fully open. When 75℃ < t, the first damper 171 is closed and the second damper 172 is fully open.

[0065] The third embodiment of this application provides an air conditioner, including a housing 100, an evaporator module, and an air intake component 230. For example... Figure 5 As shown, the casing 100 includes a first chamber 110, which has a first air inlet 112 and an air outlet 114. The first air inlet 112 is located on the first side plate 101 of the first chamber 110. An evaporation module is disposed within the first chamber 110, and the evaporation module includes an evaporator 200. Figure 6 As shown, the evaporator 200 has a first surface 201 and a second surface 202. The first surface 201 faces the air outlet 114, and the second surface 202 faces away from the air outlet 114. A first air inlet 112 is located on one side of the first surface 201 of the evaporator 200, with a first end of the first surface 201 close to the first side plate 101 and located on the first side of the first air inlet 112. A first end of a guide member 230 is connected to the first end of the first surface 201, and a second end of the guide member 230 is connected to the first side plate 101 and located on the second side of the first air inlet 112. A guide channel 234 is formed between the guide member 230 and the first side plate 101, and the guide channel 234 is used to guide the airflow from the first air inlet 112 to the second surface 202.

[0066] In this embodiment, due to the layout design of the first air inlet 112, air outlet 114, and evaporator 200, air entering through the first air inlet 112 is directly blown onto the first surface 201 of the evaporator 200 and then blown out from the air outlet 114, resulting in insufficient heat exchange between the air and the evaporator 200. Therefore, this embodiment provides a flow guide 230, forming a flow channel 234 between the flow guide 230 and the first side plate 101. Thus, after entering through the first air inlet 112, the air flows along the flow channel 234 to the second surface 202, then passes through the first surface 201 and flows to the air outlet 114, finally being blown into the room from the air outlet 114. Therefore, under the action of the flow guide 230, the air entering through the first air inlet 112 can fully exchange heat with the evaporator 200, which is beneficial to improving heat exchange efficiency.

[0067] Optionally, such as Figure 6As shown, the airflow guide 230 includes a first plate segment 231 and a second plate segment 232. The first end of the first plate segment 231 is connected to the first end of the first surface 201. The first plate segment 231 is parallel to and spaced apart from the first side plate 101. The first end of the second plate segment 232 is connected to the second end of the first plate segment 231, and the second end of the second plate segment 232 is connected to the second side of the first air inlet 112. Thus, the design of the first plate segment 231 being parallel to the first side plate 101 helps to increase the ventilation area of ​​the airflow channel 234, thereby increasing the air intake volume.

[0068] Optionally, the airflow guide 230 further includes a third plate segment 233. The first end of the third plate segment 233 is connected to the second end of the second plate segment 232, and the second end of the third plate segment 233 is connected to the second side of the first air inlet 112. The third plate segment 233 is perpendicular to the first side plate 101. Thus, the airflow guide 230 is composed of three connected plate segments, optimizing the air path at the first air inlet 112 and allowing air to flow more smoothly along the airflow channel 234 to the second surface 202 of the evaporator 200.

[0069] Optionally, the first chamber 110 is further provided with a second air inlet 113, which is disposed on the second side plate 102 of the first chamber 110 and located on one side of the second surface 202 of the evaporator 200. The second side plate 102 is arranged opposite to the first side plate 101. In this way, the air intake is increased by providing the second air inlet 113, and the air entering through the second air inlet 113 is directly blown onto the second surface 202, thus eliminating the need for the air guide 230.

[0070] Optionally, the first compartment 110 is also provided with a fifth side panel 105. The first end of the fifth side panel 105 is connected to the first side panel 101, and the second end of the fifth side panel 105 is connected to the second side panel 102. The fifth side panel 105 has an air outlet 114. This makes the layout of the air inlet 111 and the air outlet 114 of the housing 100 more compact.

[0071] Optionally, the evaporator 200 includes a first heat exchange section 210 and a second heat exchange section 220. The first heat exchange section 210 is opposite to the air outlet 114. The second heat exchange section 220 is obliquely connected to the first heat exchange section 210 and is opposite to the first air inlet 112. Furthermore, the surface of the first heat exchange section 210 facing the air outlet 114 and the surface of the second heat exchange section 220 facing the first air inlet 112 form a first surface 201. In this embodiment, the two obliquely connected heat exchange sections facilitate full utilization of the space in the first chamber 110 and allow for a larger heat exchange area.

[0072] Optionally, the first heat exchange section 210 and the second heat exchange section 220 are vertically connected and form an L-shape. The first heat exchange section 210 is arranged parallel to the fifth side plate 105, and the second heat exchange section 220 is arranged parallel to the second side plate 102.

[0073] Optionally, the housing 100 also includes a second compartment 120. The second compartment 120 is arranged adjacent to the first compartment 110 via a partition 106. The air conditioner also includes a condenser module disposed within the second compartment 120. Furthermore, an air passage 235 is formed between the second surface 202 and the partition 106, and the air passage 235 is connected to a drainage passage 234, such as... Figure 6 As shown. In this embodiment, air enters through the first air inlet 112 and flows along the guide channel 234 to the air channel 235, then passes through the second surface 202 and the first surface 201 in sequence to the air outlet 114. By reserving the air channel 235, air circulation is facilitated, allowing for sufficient heat exchange with the evaporator 200.

[0074] Optionally, the condensing module includes a sleeve body 240, which comprises an inner tube and an outer tube. The first end of the inner tube is connected to the first end of the evaporator 200. The outer tube is fitted over the inner tube, and a medium channel exists between them. The medium channel is filled with a heat exchange medium, which exchanges heat with the refrigerant flowing through the inner tube. Thus, the condensing module employs a sleeve-and-tube heat exchange system to achieve better condensing efficiency.

[0075] Optionally, such as Figure 6 As shown, the second compartment 120 is equipped with an auxiliary inlet 121. The partition 106 has a mezzanine space 140, within which a portion of the sleeve body 240 is located. The mezzanine space 140 has a first mezzanine inlet 160 and a mezzanine outlet 150. The first mezzanine inlet 160 is connected to the auxiliary inlet 121, and the mezzanine outlet 150 is connected to the air passage 235. Furthermore, external air can sequentially enter the air passage 235 through the auxiliary inlet 121, the first mezzanine inlet 160, and the mezzanine outlet 150.

[0076] In this embodiment, the sleeve body 240 located in the interlayer space 140 is referred to as the first pipe section 241, and the sleeve body 240 located in the second chamber 120 is referred to as the second pipe section 242. When the condensing module uses sleeve heat exchange, insufficient heat exchange capacity may occur. For example, reduced heat exchange medium leakage or blockage of the medium channel can lead to a decrease in the heat exchange capacity of the condensing module. In this case, external air is introduced into the interlayer space 140 through the auxiliary inlet 121 and the first interlayer inlet 160. The air exchanges heat with the first pipe section 241, thereby improving the overall heat exchange performance of the sleeve body 240. Furthermore, the air after heat exchange flows from the interlayer outlet 150 to the air channel 235, then exchanges heat with the evaporator 200 before being blown back into the room. In this way, the air after heat exchange will not significantly affect the indoor temperature. Furthermore, in conjunction with the electrical control box 130 in the first and second embodiments, the electrical control box 130 is provided with a heat dissipation inlet 131 and a heat dissipation outlet 132 that are connected to each other, and the heat dissipation outlet 132 is connected to the auxiliary inlet 121. At this time, air can flow sequentially from the heat dissipation inlet 131, the heat dissipation outlet 132, the auxiliary inlet 121, the first interlayer inlet 160, and the interlayer outlet 150 to the air channel 235. In this way, through the above air path, both heat dissipation of the heat dissipation element 133 and heat exchange of the first pipe section 241 can be achieved.

[0077] Optionally, a corner plate 180 is used to enclose a corner space at the connection between the third side plate 103 and the middle partition 106. The first interlayer inlet 160 is located at the first end of the middle partition 106 and within this corner space, and the auxiliary inlet 121 is located on the third side plate 103 and within this corner space. This facilitates the rapid entry of air from the auxiliary inlet 121 into the first interlayer inlet 160.

[0078] Optionally, such as Figure 7 As shown, the mezzanine outlet 150 includes a first mezzanine outlet 151 and a second mezzanine outlet 152. The mezzanine space 140 includes a first mezzanine section 141 and a second mezzanine section 142. The first mezzanine section 141 is used to house the condensation module and is provided with the first mezzanine outlet 151. The second mezzanine section 142 is connected to the first mezzanine section 141 and is provided with a first mezzanine inlet 160 and a second mezzanine outlet 152. Furthermore, a rotatable switching damper 170 is provided at the connection between the first mezzanine section 141 and the second mezzanine section 142. The switching damper 170 has a first position, a second position, and a third position; wherein, the first position corresponds to the switching damper 170 blocking the first mezzanine inlet 160, as shown. Figure 7 As shown in (a). The second position corresponds to the point where the switching damper 170 avoids the first interlayer inlet 160 and blocks the connection between the first interlayer section 141 and the second interlayer section 142, as shown. Figure 7As shown in (b). The third position corresponds to the junction of the switching damper 170 and the first interlayer inlet 160, the first interlayer section 141, and the second interlayer section 142, as shown in (b). Figure 7 As shown in (c).

[0079] In this embodiment, when the switching damper 170 is rotated to the first position, air cannot enter the interlayer space 140, such as... Figure 7 As shown in (a). When the switching damper 170 is rotated to the second position, air can sequentially enter the first interlayer section 141 through the auxiliary inlet 121 and the first interlayer inlet 160, and then flow from the second interlayer outlet 152 to the air passage 235, as shown. Figure 7 As shown in (b). At this time, air cannot enter the second interlayer section 142 to exchange heat with the first pipe section 241, and can only dissipate heat for the heat dissipation element 133. When the switching damper 170 is rotated to the third position, air can enter the second interlayer section 142 and the first interlayer section 141 sequentially through the auxiliary inlet 121 and the first interlayer inlet 160, and then flow from the first interlayer outlet 151 and the second interlayer outlet 152 to the air passage 235, as shown in (b). Figure 7 As shown in (c). At this time, heat dissipation can be performed simultaneously on the heat dissipation element 133 and the first pipe section 241. Thus, by arranging the switching damper 170, the first interlayer outlet 151, and the second interlayer outlet 152, the position of the switching damper 170 can be adjusted according to needs. For example, when the controller detects that the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 is normal and the heat exchange of the condensing module is normal, it controls the switching damper 170 to rotate to the first position. When the controller detects that the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 exceeds the preset temperature and the heat exchange of the condensing module is normal, it controls the switching damper 170 to rotate to the second position. When the controller detects that the heat exchange capacity of the condensing module has decreased, it controls the switching damper 170 to rotate to the third position.

[0080] Optionally, such as Figure 7 As shown in (d), the first interlayer section 141 is provided with a second interlayer inlet 161, and a third damper 173 is provided at the second interlayer inlet 161. The third damper 173 is controlled to rotate by a controller. In this way, air can be introduced into the interlayer space 140 through the second interlayer inlet 161 to exchange heat with the first pipe section 241. The second interlayer inlet 161 is located at the second end of the partition plate 106, and the third damper 173 opens towards the outside of the interlayer space 140, and can separate the second interlayer inlet 161 and the second air inlet 113 after opening. In this way, the impact when the second interlayer inlet 161 and the second air inlet 113, which are close to each other, are simultaneously introduced can be reduced.

[0081] In this embodiment, when the controller detects a decrease in the heat exchange capacity of the condensation module and a temperature lower than the preset temperature of the heat dissipation element 133, it controls the switching damper 170 to rotate to the first position and controls the third damper 173 to open. Figure 7 As shown in (d). At this time, only the air from the second interlayer inlet 161 is used for heat exchange with the first pipe section 241. When the controller detects that the heat exchange capacity of the condensing module has decreased, the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 is higher than the preset temperature, and the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 is higher than the temperature of the condensing module, it controls the switching damper 170 to rotate to the second position and controls the third damper 173 to open, as shown in (d). Figure 7 As shown in (e). At this time, the air in the second interlayer inlet 161 exchanges heat with the first pipe section 241, and the air in the first interlayer inlet 160 exchanges heat with the heat dissipation element 133. In this way, the positions of the switching damper 170 and the third damper 173 can be adjusted according to different situations of the condensing module and the heat dissipation element 133, thereby improving the heat dissipation capacity of the electrical control box 130 while ensuring the heat exchange capacity of the condensing module.

[0082] Optionally, the control box 130 is equipped with a first temperature sensor, which detects the temperature of the heat dissipation element 133 inside the control box 130 and transmits the corresponding first temperature signal to the air conditioner controller. A second temperature sensor is installed on the sleeve body 240, which detects the temperature of the sleeve body 240 and transmits the corresponding second temperature signal to the air conditioner controller. The switching damper 170 is driven by a damper motor, which is electrically connected to the air conditioner controller. Thus, the controller determines whether the temperature of the control box 130 exceeds a preset temperature based on the first temperature signal, and determines whether the heat exchange capacity of the condensing module has decreased based on the second temperature signal. The controller adjusts the positions of the switching damper 170 and the third damper 173 via the damper motor.

[0083] The fourth embodiment of this application provides an air conditioning system, including an air conditioner, an air duct 300, and an air outlet panel 310. For example... Figure 8 As shown, the air conditioner includes a casing 100, an evaporator module, and a condenser module. The casing 100 includes a first compartment 110 and a second compartment 120. The first compartment 110 has an air inlet 111 and an air outlet 114. The evaporator module is disposed in the first compartment 110, and the condenser module is disposed in the second compartment 120. The first end of the air guide duct 300 is connected to the air outlet 114. The air outlet panel 310 has a panel inlet 311 and a panel outlet 312. The panel inlet 311 is connected to the second end of the air guide duct 300, and the panel outlet 312 is used to discharge the air from the air conditioner.

[0084] In this embodiment, the air conditioner adopts an integrated design, with the evaporator and condenser modules integrated within the casing 100, eliminating the need for a separate outdoor unit and saving outdoor space. When the air conditioning system is operating, air from the outlet 114 flows along the air guide duct 300 to the panel inlet 311, and then is blown into the room from the panel outlet 312. This allows for flexible adjustment of the air conditioner's installation location by arranging the air guide duct 300; for example, the air conditioner can be suspended in an unused indoor location, and the air guide duct 300 can be used to guide the air to a designated location. Airflow through the outlet panel 310 enhances the aesthetics of the interior design, for example, by integrating the outlet panel 310 with the ceiling.

[0085] Optionally, the condensing module includes a sleeve body 240, which comprises an inner tube and an outer tube. The first end of the inner tube is connected to the first end of the evaporating module. The outer tube is fitted onto the inner tube, forming a medium channel between them. The medium channel is filled with a heat exchange medium used for heat exchange with the refrigerant flowing through the inner tube. In this embodiment, since the casing 100 is suspended indoors, air cooling is not convenient for the condensing module; therefore, sleeve heat exchange is used. The refrigerant in the inner tube circulates within the medium channel for heat exchange, thereby meeting the heat exchange requirements of the condensing module.

[0086] Optionally, the air conditioner also includes a compressor module. The compressor module is located within the second compartment 120, with its exhaust port connected to the second end of the inner pipe body and its intake port connected to the second end of the evaporator module. In this embodiment, the compressor module discharges refrigerant to the second end of the inner pipe body. The refrigerant in the inner pipe body exchanges heat with the heat exchange medium and then flows from the first end to the evaporator 200. The refrigerant in the evaporator 200 exchanges heat with the air in the first compartment 110 and then flows back to the compressor module for recompression.

[0087] The specific structures of the condenser module, evaporator module, and compressor module are detailed above and will not be repeated here.

[0088] Optionally, such as Figure 1 As shown, the first compartment 110 includes a first side panel 101 and a second side panel 102 facing each other, and the first side panel 101 and / or the second side panel 102 are provided with air inlets 111. Thus, with two air inlets 111, the one on the first side panel 101 is called the first air inlet 112, and the one on the second side panel 102 is called the second air inlet 113, which is beneficial to increase the air intake volume.

[0089] Optionally, the first compartment 110 is also provided with a fifth side panel 105. The first end of the fifth side panel 105 is connected to the first side panel 101, and the second end of the fifth side panel 105 is connected to the second side panel 102. The fifth side panel 105 has an air outlet 114. This makes the layout of the air inlet 111 and the air outlet 114 of the housing 100 more compact.

[0090] Optionally, such as Figure 9 As shown, the air conditioning system also includes a bend component 320, which includes a first turning section 321 and a second turning section 322. The first end of the first turning section 321 is connected to the second end of the air guide duct 300. The first end of the second turning section 322 is connected to the second end of the first turning section 321, and the second end of the second turning section 322 is connected to the panel inlet 311. Furthermore, the second turning section 322 is not arranged parallel to the first turning section 321. In this embodiment, the airflow direction can be controlled by the arrangement of the first turning section 321 and the second turning section 322. This non-parallel arrangement causes the air to turn within the bend component 320, thereby ensuring that the air enters the panel inlet 311 along a predetermined path.

[0091] Optionally, such as Figure 9 As shown, a guide vane 330 is provided inside the bend component 320. The guide vane 330 is arranged along the airflow direction of the bend component 320 and divides the airflow channel of the bend component 320 into two sub-channels 331. This facilitates the flow of air within the bend component 320, and the air in the air guide channel 300 flows to the panel inlet 311 through the two sub-channels 331 of the bend component 320.

[0092] Optionally, the air outlet panel 310 includes a first panel and a second panel. The first panel is used to form a panel inlet 311, and an air inlet frame is provided around the periphery of the panel inlet 311. The air inlet frame is used to install the second end of the air guide duct 300. The second panel is disposed opposite to the first panel and is used to form a panel outlet 312. In this embodiment, during installation, the first panel faces the ceiling, and the second panel faces the interior. Furthermore, when a bend 320 is provided, the second end of the second deflection section 322 is mounted on the air inlet frame.

[0093] Optionally, such as Figure 10 As shown, the panel outlet 312 includes a first panel outlet 313 and two second panel outlets 314. The first panel outlet 313 is located in the center of the second panel surface. The two second panel outlets 314 are respectively located on either side of the first panel outlet 313. In this embodiment, the first panel outlet 313 and the two second panel outlets 314 are arranged linearly, which can form a wide airflow coverage, increasing the air supply volume while ensuring more uniform airflow.

[0094] Optionally, the first panel outlet 313 is provided with a rotatable air guide plate. In this way, the air delivery direction can be flexibly adjusted using the air guide plate.

[0095] Optionally, the second panel outlet 314 is provided with an air vent grille. In this way, the air vent direction can be set by the arrangement and shape design of the grille, thereby improving comfort.
