Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of household appliance technology, such as a water-blocking component for an air conditioner and an air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] With societal development, inverter air conditioners are becoming increasingly common. Inverter air conditioners contain control components such as inverter chips, which regulate the compressor's operating frequency; therefore, the control component is a crucial part of the inverter air conditioner. However, during operation, especially in hot summer months, the heat generated by these control components surges, leading to a decrease in the inverter air conditioner's cooling or heating capacity.

[0003] In related technologies, heat dissipation vents are provided at the locations corresponding to the control components on the casing to control their temperature. This allows the air conditioner to dissipate heat from the control components through these vents, thus preventing them from overheating.

[0004] In the process of implementing the embodiments of this disclosure, at least the following problems were found in the related art:

[0005] In existing air conditioners with heat dissipation vents on the casing, the vents are often located on the lower end of the handle to prevent rainwater from dripping onto the control components. This results in an excessive distance between the vents and the control components, thus affecting the heat dissipation effect of the control components.

[0006] 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

[0007] 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.

[0008] This disclosure provides a water-blocking component and an air conditioner for an air conditioner. It allows outside air to be introduced into a heat dissipation duct through a side air inlet and blown onto the component to be cooled through an air outlet, thereby achieving heat dissipation. Simultaneously, since the air outlet is located above the side air inlet, rainwater dripping onto the component to be cooled can be prevented. This design ensures waterproofing while shortening the distance between the side air inlet and the component to be cooled, thus improving heat dissipation.

[0009] This disclosure provides a water-blocking assembly for an air conditioner. The air conditioner includes a casing, and a component to be cooled is disposed within the casing. The water-blocking assembly includes a partition and a handle. The partition is disposed on one side of the casing, and has an air outlet corresponding to the component to be cooled. The handle is disposed on the outside of the partition, and has a side air inlet on its side wall. A cooling duct is disposed between the partition and the handle, and the cooling duct communicates with both the side air inlet and the air outlet, with the height of the side air inlet lower than the height of the air outlet.

[0010] In some embodiments, the heat dissipation duct includes a vertical section and an inclined section. The vertical section is connected to the side air inlet of the handle; the inclined section is located above the vertical section and is connected to the air outlet; wherein the inclined section is inclined upward toward the air outlet.

[0011] In some embodiments, the height of the inclined section is higher than the height of the side air inlet of the handle.

[0012] In some embodiments, there is a gap between the handle and the partition to form a heat dissipation duct; wherein the distance between the handle and the partition is greater than or equal to 2 mm.

[0013] In some embodiments, the housing is provided with a compressor compartment, and the component to be scald is disposed in the compressor compartment; the lower end face of the handle is provided with a lower air inlet, which communicates with the compressor compartment.

[0014] In some embodiments, the partition is provided with a water-blocking part at the position corresponding to the side air inlet, and the water-blocking part is arranged in a vertical direction; wherein, the lower air inlet is located below the water-blocking part.

[0015] In some embodiments, a wind deflector is provided on the side of the handle facing the partition, and the wind deflector is located between the side air inlet and the bottom air inlet.

[0016] In some embodiments, the wind deflector is located below the water deflector; the wind deflector includes a water inlet, which extends obliquely toward the lower air inlet.

[0017] In some embodiments, a handle is provided on the side of the handle away from the partition, and the handle extends in the direction away from the partition; wherein the handle is located above the side air inlet.

[0018] This disclosure also provides an air conditioner including: a housing, a heat-receiving component, and the aforementioned water-blocking assembly for the air conditioner. The heat-receiving component is disposed inside the housing; the water-blocking assembly is installed in the housing corresponding to the heat-receiving component; wherein the air outlet of the partition is oriented towards the heat-receiving component.

[0019] The water-blocking component and air conditioner provided in this disclosure can achieve the following technical effects:

[0020] This disclosure provides a water-blocking assembly for an air conditioner. The air conditioner includes a casing, and a component to be cooled is disposed within the casing. The water-blocking assembly includes a partition and a handle. The partition is disposed on one side of the casing, and has an air outlet corresponding to the component to be cooled. The handle is disposed on the outside of the partition, and has a side air inlet on its side wall. A heat dissipation duct is provided between the partition and the handle, and the heat dissipation duct is connected to both the side air inlet and the air outlet, with the height of the side air inlet lower than the height of the air outlet. The component to be cooled can be a control element such as an inverter chip within the air conditioner. Thus, when the air conditioner is running, low-temperature external air can flow into the heat dissipation duct through the side air inlet of the handle and be blown to the component to be cooled through the air outlet of the partition, thereby achieving heat dissipation. Simultaneously, since the height of the air outlet of the partition is higher than the height of the side air inlet, the partition will block rainwater flowing in from the side air inlet, and the rainwater will flow away from the air outlet under the influence of gravity. This design ensures waterproofing while reducing the distance between the side air intake and the component to be cooled, thereby improving heat dissipation.

[0033] To provide a more detailed understanding of the features and technical content of the embodiments of this disclosure, the implementation of the embodiments of this disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the embodiments of this disclosure. In the following technical description, for ease of explanation, several details are used to provide a full understanding of the disclosed embodiments. However, one or more embodiments may still be implemented without these details. In other cases, well-known structures and devices may be simplified in their depiction to simplify the drawings.

It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate for the embodiments of this disclosure described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion.

[0035] In this disclosure, the terms "upper," "lower," "inner," "middle," "outer," "front," and "rear," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0039] The term "and / or" describes an association between objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B means: A or B, or A and B.

[0040] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the present disclosure can be combined with each other.

[0041] In existing technologies, some air conditioners incorporate air intake structures at the compressor compartment handle and side shell locations. However, to prevent rainwater from being blown onto the components requiring heat dissipation, the air intake is typically located at the bottom of the handle, drawing air in from below and into the fan compartment from the lower side. While some handles have air intakes on the front or side, waterproofing limitations mean air can only be drawn from the gap between the bottom of the handle and the side shell. This results in small openings and excessive distance between the air intakes and the components requiring heat dissipation, leading to significant airflow loss and poor cooling performance. Furthermore, existing air intake structures suffer from airflow obstruction by the compressor's insulation and noise reduction material, as well as temperature increases due to the compressor's operation, further reducing cooling efficiency for the components.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this embodiment of the disclosure provides a water-blocking component 12 for an air conditioner and an air conditioner. External air can be introduced into the heat dissipation duct through the side air inlet 31 and blown to the heat-dissipating component 102 through the air outlet 21, thereby achieving heat dissipation for the heat-dissipating component 102. Simultaneously, since the air outlet 21 is located above the side air inlet 31, rainwater can be prevented from dripping onto the heat-dissipating component 102. This arrangement ensures waterproofing while shortening the distance between the side air inlet 31 and the heat-dissipating component 102, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0043] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, this embodiment of the present disclosure provides a water-blocking assembly 12 for an air conditioner. The air conditioner includes a housing 11, and a heat-dissipating component 102 is disposed inside the housing 11. The water-blocking assembly 12 includes a partition 20 and a handle 30. The partition 20 is disposed on one side of the housing 11, and the partition 20 has an air outlet 21 corresponding to the heat-dissipating component 102; the handle 30 is disposed on the outside of the partition 20, and a side air inlet 31 is disposed on the side wall of the handle 30; wherein, a heat dissipation duct is disposed between the partition 20 and the handle 30, and the heat dissipation duct is connected to the side air inlet 31 and the air outlet 21 respectively, and the height of the side air inlet 31 is lower than the height of the air outlet 21.

[0044] Specifically, the heat-receiving component 102 of the air conditioner can be a high-heat-generating control element such as the inverter chip inside the air conditioner, especially a control element located in the compressor compartment. The air conditioner casing 11 has an opening corresponding to the heat-receiving component 102, and a partition 20 is installed at the opening of the casing 11. The handle 30 is larger than the partition 20 and is fastened to the outside of the partition 20. A side air inlet 31 is located on the lower half of the handle 30 and connects to the cooling duct and the outdoor environment. An air outlet 21 is located on the upper half of the partition 20 and connects to the cooling duct and the interior of the casing 11. The position of the air outlet 21 corresponds to the heat-receiving component 102, and the airflow direction of the air outlet 21 is towards the heat-receiving component 102.

[0045] During air conditioner operation, the heat-dissipating component 102 emits a significant amount of heat. Outdoor air can then flow into the cooling duct through the side air inlet 31 of the handle 30, and is subsequently blown onto the heat-dissipating component 102 through the air outlet 21, thus dissipating heat. Simultaneously, the height of the side air inlet 31 is lower than the height of the air outlet 21, meaning the airflow direction within the cooling duct is upward. This prevents rainwater from being carried upwards to the air outlet 21 by inertia and gravity after entering the cooling duct with the outdoor air through the side air inlet 31, thus avoiding the rainwater being blown onto the heat-dissipating component 102. This design ensures waterproofing while shortening the distance between the side air inlet 31 and the heat-dissipating component 102, thereby improving heat dissipation.

[0046] In the above embodiments, the height of the side air inlet 31 refers to the distance between the side air inlet 31 and the ground, and the height of the air outlet 21 refers to the distance between the air outlet 21 and the ground.

[0047] Understandably, a fan and a heat dissipation vent 101 are typically installed inside the compressor compartment, with the fan's airflow direction limited to the heat dissipation vent 101. In this way, the fan can blow hot air from inside the casing 11 out of the casing 11 through the heat dissipation vent 101. At this time, due to the negative pressure, outdoor air can flow in through the side air inlet 31 and be blown out through the air outlet 21 to the heat-dissipating component 102 to complete airflow circulation. This arrangement ensures continuous and stable heat dissipation for the heat-dissipating component 102.

[0048] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the heat dissipation duct includes a vertical section and an inclined section. The vertical section is connected to the side air inlet 31 of the handle 30; the inclined section is located above the vertical section and is connected to the air outlet 21; wherein the inclined section is inclined upward toward the air outlet 21.

[0049] Specifically, the lower end of the vertical section is connected to the side air inlet 31, and the upper end of the vertical section extends vertically upwards. The lower end of the inclined section is connected to the upper end of the vertical section, and the upper end of the inclined section extends upwards at an angle towards the heat-dissipating component 102. In this way, after rainwater enters the heat dissipation duct from the side air inlet 31, the side wall of the vertical section will block the rainwater, and the rainwater will flow downwards along the vertical section under the influence of gravity, further preventing rainwater from flowing towards the air outlet 21. Simultaneously, after outdoor air flows into the heat dissipation duct, it will first flow vertically upwards along the vertical section, and then flow along the inclined section towards the heat-dissipating component 102, and finally be blown to the heat-dissipating component 102. This arrangement can further reduce the loss of airflow and air velocity, thereby ensuring the heat dissipation effect on the heat-dissipating component 102.

[0050] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the height of the inclined section is higher than the height of the side air inlet 31 of the handle 30.

[0051] Specifically, the vertical section is larger than the side air inlet 31, meaning the lower end of the vertical section is lower than the lower end of the side air inlet 31, and the upper end of the vertical section is higher than the upper end of the side air inlet 31. The height of the inclined section is higher than the height of the side air inlet 31, which allows rainwater entering the heat dissipation duct from the side air inlet 31 to be completely blocked by the side wall of the vertical section.

[0052] Understandably, since the inclined section is tilted towards the heat dissipation component 102, the side wall of the vertical section completely blocks rainwater, preventing rainwater from being blown to the heat dissipation component 102 along the side wall of the inclined section by the airflow, thus further ensuring the waterproof effect of the water-blocking component 12.

[0053] like Figures 3 to 6As shown, in some embodiments, there is a gap between the handle 30 and the partition 20 to form a heat dissipation duct; wherein the distance between the handle 30 and the partition 20 is greater than or equal to 2 mm.

[0054] Specifically, the handle 30 includes an air inlet side 301 parallel to the side wall of the housing 11, and a side air inlet 31 is disposed on the air inlet side 301 of the handle 30. The partition 20 includes an air outlet side 201 parallel to the side wall of the housing 11, and an air outlet 21 is disposed on the air outlet side 201 of the partition 20. There is a gap between the air inlet side 301 and the air outlet side 201 to form a heat dissipation air duct, and the distance between the air inlet side 301 and the air outlet side 201 is greater than or equal to 2 mm. For example, the distance between the air inlet side 301 and the air outlet side 201 is 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm, or 6 mm.

[0055] It is understandable that the larger the distance between the air inlet side 301 and the air outlet side 201, the larger the size of the heat dissipation air duct. Therefore, making the distance between the air inlet side 301 and the air outlet side 201 greater than or equal to 2mm can ensure the airflow blown to the heat-dissipating component 102, thereby ensuring the heat dissipation effect of the heat-dissipating component 102.

[0056] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the housing 11 is provided with a compressor compartment, and the heat dissipation component 102 is disposed inside the compressor compartment; the lower end face of the handle 30 is provided with a lower air inlet 32, which is connected to the compressor compartment.

[0057] Specifically, the lower air inlet 32 ​​is connected to the compressor compartment, and the airflow direction of the lower air inlet 32 ​​is directed towards the heat-dissipating component 102. In this way, during air conditioner operation, outdoor air can directly enter the compressor compartment through the lower air inlet 32 ​​and be blown to the heat-dissipating component 102. This further increases the airflow to the heat-dissipating component 102, thereby increasing the heat dissipation effect on the heat-dissipating component 102. Simultaneously, since the lower air inlet 32 ​​is located on the lower end face of the handle 30, it also prevents rainwater from flowing into the compressor compartment from the lower air inlet 32. Thus, while increasing the heat dissipation effect on the heat-dissipating component 102, the waterproof effect of the water-blocking component 12 is ensured.

[0058] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the partition 20 is provided with a water-blocking part 22 at the position corresponding to the side air inlet 31, and the water-blocking part 22 is arranged in a vertical direction; wherein, the lower air inlet 32 ​​is located below the water-blocking part 22.

[0059] Specifically, the portion of the partition 20 directly opposite the side air inlet 31 forms a water-blocking part 22, which is vertically oriented. The lower air inlet 32 ​​is located directly below the water-blocking part 22, and its size is greater than or equal to that of the water-blocking part 22. Thus, after rainwater enters the heat dissipation duct from the side air inlet 31, the water-blocking part 22 prevents it from moving towards the air outlet 21. Simultaneously, after rainwater accumulates on the water-blocking part 22, it flows downwards along it under gravity and exits the heat dissipation duct through the lower air outlet 21, preventing rainwater from accumulating within the duct.

[0060] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, a baffle plate 33 is provided on the side of the handle 30 facing the partition 20, and the baffle plate 33 is located between the side air inlet 31 and the lower air inlet 32.

[0061] Specifically, the first end of the baffle 33 is connected to the handle 30, and the first end of the baffle 33 is located below the side air inlet 31. The second end of the baffle 33 extends towards the partition 20 and below the partition 20, so that the baffle 33 blocks the space between the lower air inlet 32 ​​and the heat dissipation duct. This arrangement prevents air entering the heat dissipation duct from the side air inlet 31 from flowing directly to the lower air inlet 32, which would cause airflow turbulence in the heat dissipation duct and thus affect the heat dissipation effect on the heat sink 102.

[0062] In the above embodiment, there are gaps between the two sides of the wind deflector 33 and the handle 30. Since the second end of the wind deflector 33 extends below the partition 20, the wind deflector 33 at least partially covers the area between the water-blocking part 22 and the lower air inlet 32. Therefore, by creating gaps between the two sides of the wind deflector 33 and the handle 30, rainwater from the water-blocking part 22 can first drip onto the wind deflector 33, and then drip through the gaps on both sides of the wind deflector 33 to the lower air inlet 32.

[0063] Optionally, the second end of the baffle 33 is inclined upward to guide the airflow flowing towards it. In this way, the airflow flowing towards the baffle 33 can flow upward under the guidance of the baffle 33, thereby avoiding airflow turbulence in the heat dissipation duct.

[0064] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the wind deflector 33 is located below the water deflector 22; the wind deflector 33 includes a water guide 331, which extends obliquely toward the lower air inlet 32.

[0065] Specifically, the left half of the wind deflector 33 extends downward at an angle to form a water-draining section 331, allowing rainwater dripping onto the wind deflector 33 to slide downward along the left half of the wind deflector 33 under the influence of gravity and drip onto the lower air inlet 32. Similarly, the right half of the wind deflector 33 extends downward at an angle to form a water-draining section 331, allowing rainwater dripping onto the wind deflector 33 to slide downward along the right half of the wind deflector 33 and drip onto the lower air inlet 32. This arrangement prevents rainwater from accumulating at the wind deflector 33.

[0066] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, a handle portion 30 is also provided on the side of the handle 30 away from the partition 20, and the handle portion 30 extends in the direction away from the partition 20; wherein, the handle portion 30 is located above the side air inlet 31.

[0067] Specifically, the first end of the handle 30 is connected to the air inlet side 301 of the handle 30, and the first end of the handle 30 is located above the side air inlet 31. The second end of the handle 30 extends away from the partition 20, and the extension distance of the handle 30 is greater than or equal to a preset distance. In this way, the handle 30 can block rainwater in rainy weather to prevent rainwater from flowing into the heat dissipation duct from the side air inlet 31, further improving the waterproof effect of the water-blocking component 12.

[0068] In practical applications, the extension distance of the handle 30 can be set according to actual needs, as long as the second end of the handle 30 is located on the side of the side air inlet 31 away from the partition 20. For example, the extension distance of the handle 30 can be 2cm, 3cm, 4cm, 5cm or 6cm.

[0069] Optionally, the width of the handle 30 is greater than or equal to the width of the side air inlet 31 to prevent rainwater from flowing from both sides of the handle 30 to the side air inlet 31.

[0070] Optionally, the air intake side 301 of the handle 30 is provided with multiple side air intakes 31, and the multiple side air intakes 31 are spaced apart in the horizontal direction. The side air intakes 31 are configured as elongated structures. In this case, "the width of the handle 30 is greater than or equal to the width of the side air intakes 31" means that the width of the handle 30 is greater than or equal to the width of the air intake area covered by the multiple side air intakes 31. This configuration ensures waterproofing and airflow while preventing foreign objects from entering the heat dissipation duct through the side air intakes 31.

[0071] Optionally, the handle 30 is provided with a recessed groove 302 between the handle portion 30 and the side air inlet 31, which is recessed towards the partition 20. The inner wall of the groove 302 can cooperate with the partition 20 to form an inclined section of the heat dissipation air duct, and the user can lift the housing through the groove 302 and the handle portion 30.

[0072] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this embodiment of the present disclosure also provides an air conditioner including: a housing 11, a heat-receiving component 102, and the aforementioned water-blocking assembly 12 for the air conditioner. The heat-receiving component 102 is disposed inside the housing 11; the water-blocking assembly 12 is installed on the housing 11 corresponding to the heat-receiving component 102; wherein, the air outlet 21 of the partition 20 is disposed facing the heat-receiving component 102.
