Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wall-mounted air conditioners, and more particularly to wall-mounted air conditioners with disinfection and purification devices. Background Technology
[0002] Wall-mounted air conditioners are the most common temperature control devices in modern homes and offices. Their core functions are cooling and heating to meet people's basic needs for environmental comfort. With increasing attention to air quality, many existing products are attempting to add air purification capabilities to their basic temperature control functions. A common approach is to install one or more physical filters in the air inlet or duct of the air conditioner, such as a pre-filter to intercept large particles of dust and hair, or an activated carbon filter to absorb odors and some gaseous pollutants.
[0003] The shortcomings of existing technologies are mainly manifested in several key aspects. First, traditional physical filters (such as non-woven fabrics and activated carbon) primarily rely on interception and adsorption, which has limited efficiency in capturing microorganisms with smaller particle sizes. Moreover, the microorganisms (bacteria, mold, etc.) trapped on the filter are not only not effectively killed, but may also breed and multiply in the warm and humid filter environment, becoming a secondary source of pollution. When the air conditioner is restarted, these pathogens may be carried back into the room by the airflow, endangering health. Second, although some products have introduced ultraviolet (UV-C) germicidal lamps as a disinfection method, their installation location and irradiation method are often poorly designed: commonly, UV lamps are installed inside the air duct or near the evaporator, resulting in extremely short instantaneous irradiation time for the airflow and unsatisfactory sterilization effect; more importantly, ultraviolet light cannot effectively irradiate the "hotspots" on the filter surface where pollutants are most concentrated and microorganisms breed, failing to solve the problem of biological contamination of the filter itself. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to propose a wall-mounted air conditioner with a disinfection and purification device, so as to realize ultraviolet sterilization through circulation and improve the sterilization range.
[0005] To achieve the above technical objectives, this utility model provides a wall-mounted air conditioner with a disinfection and purification device:
[0006] It includes a wall-mounted indoor unit, with a ventilation screen at the top for ventilation, a filter screen below the ventilation screen for filtering air, and a disinfection mechanism above the filter screen, which is installed inside the wall-mounted indoor unit. The disinfection mechanism includes a slide and a moving component, with an ultraviolet lamp fixed to the outer surface of the slide, and the moving component for driving the slide to reciprocate.
[0007] Preferably, the wall-mounted indoor unit includes a main housing, side end covers, and a protective housing. Two side end covers are provided, and the two side end covers are fixed to both ends of the main housing. Both ends of the air outlet baffle are rotatably connected to the side end covers.
[0008] Preferably, the protective shell has connecting seats fixed on both sides of its bottom, and the protective shell is hinged to the side end cover through the connecting seats.
[0009] Preferably, the top two sides of the protective shell are fixed with buckles, and the inner wall of the main shell is fixed with a retaining spring, and the buckles engage with the retaining spring.
[0010] Preferably, the inner wall of the side end cover is fixed with a slide rail, and both sides of the filter screen are inserted into the slide rail.
[0011] Preferably, a cleaning brush roller is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the slide.
[0012] Preferably, the moving component includes a side plate, which is fixed to the inner wall of the side end cover. A conveyor belt is slidably connected to the outer surface of the side plate, and both ends of the conveyor belt are slidably connected to the side plate via shafts. The end of the slide is slidably connected to the side end cover.
[0013] Preferably, the moving component further includes a motor, the output end of which is fixedly connected to the shaft end of the conveyor belt and the side plate, and the outer surface of the motor is fixed to the side plate; a connecting block is fixed to the outer surface of the conveyor belt, and the end of the slide is rotatably connected to the connecting block.
[0014] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. By assembling a disinfection mechanism above the filter, ultraviolet light is emitted by an ultraviolet lamp to irradiate the filter, which can disinfect the filter. Furthermore, the moving component drives the slide to move the ultraviolet lamp back and forth above the filter, increasing the light range and thus improving the disinfection effect.
[0016] 2: A cleaning brush roller is connected to the slide and rotates. When the slide moves back and forth with the cleaning brush roller, the cleaning brush roller contacts the filter screen. Under the action of friction, the cleaning brush roller rolls and cleans the pollutants such as hair or lint on the filter screen, thus reducing the clogging of the filter screen.

[0024] The following description is exemplary in nature and is not intended to limit the scope, application, or use of this disclosure. It should be understood that in all these figures, the same or similar reference numerals indicate the same or similar parts and features. The figures are merely schematic representations of the concept and principles of embodiments of this disclosure and do not necessarily show the specific dimensions and scale of the various embodiments of this disclosure. Certain details or structures of embodiments of this disclosure may be exaggerated in particular portions of certain figures.
[0025] Reference Figure 1-5 A wall-mounted air conditioner with a disinfection and purification device includes a wall-mounted indoor unit 1 and an outdoor unit. The wall-mounted indoor unit 1 is used to supply air to the room. The cold or hot air generated by the outdoor unit through heat exchange is sent to the room through the wall-mounted indoor unit 1, thereby changing the indoor temperature. The wall-mounted indoor unit 1 mainly consists of a main casing 11, as well as a heat exchanger, an electronic control system, and an air duct system installed in the main casing 11. This is known and publicly available technology and will not be elaborated on here.
[0026] Furthermore, the top of the wall-mounted indoor unit 1 is provided with a ventilation mesh 14 for ventilation. Below the ventilation mesh 14 is a filter 2 for filtering air. Above the filter 2 is a disinfection mechanism 3, which is installed inside the wall-mounted indoor unit 1. The disinfection mechanism 3 includes a slide 31 and a moving component 32. An ultraviolet lamp 312 is fixed on the outer surface of the slide 31. The moving component 32 is used to drive the slide 31 to reciprocate. For example, by moving the slide 31 and the ultraviolet lamp 312 through the moving component 32, the ultraviolet lamp 312 can reciprocate on the filter 2, increasing the light range and thus improving the disinfection effect.
[0027] It is worth mentioning that the ultraviolet lamp 312 is powered by a sliding power supply or by a long wire, which is a known and publicly available technology and will not be elaborated on here.
[0028] Specifically, the wall-mounted indoor unit 1 includes a main housing 11, side end covers 12, and a protective housing 13. There are two side end covers 12, which are fixed to both ends of the main housing 11. Both ends of the air outlet baffle 15 are rotatably connected to the side end covers 12 for easy assembly.
[0029] Furthermore, connecting seats 131 are fixed on both sides of the bottom of the protective shell 13, and the protective shell 13 is hinged to the side end cover 12 through the connecting seats 131; buckles 132 are fixed on both sides of the top of the protective shell 13, and a retaining spring 133 is fixed on the inner wall of the main shell 11, and the buckles 132 and the retaining spring 133 engage; for example, when the filter screen 2 needs to be replaced, simply turn the top of the protective shell 13 to deform the retaining spring 133, so that the buckles 132 and the retaining spring 133 can be disengaged, the limiting of the protective shell 13 can be released, the protective shell 13 can be opened, and the filter screen 2 can be pulled out from the main shell 11 for replacement.
[0030] Specifically, the inner wall of the side end cover 12 is fixed with a slide rail, and both sides of the filter screen 2 are inserted into the slide rail to improve the installation stability of the filter screen 2. It should be noted that the filter screen 2 is used to filter the air entering the wall-mounted indoor unit 1 to prevent pollutants such as hair or dust from adhering to the heat exchanger.
[0031] Furthermore, a cleaning brush roller 311 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the slide 31. The cleaning brush roller 311 has a cylindrical structure and multiple brushes are fixedly distributed on its surface for cleaning hair.
[0032] Specifically, the moving component 32 includes a side plate 321, which is fixed to the inner wall of the side end cover 12. A conveyor belt 322 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the side plate 321. Both ends of the conveyor belt 322 are tumbledly connected to the side plate 321 via shafts. The end of the slide block 31 is slidably connected to the side end cover 12. The moving component 32 also includes a motor 324, the output end of which is fixedly connected to the shaft end connecting the conveyor belt 322 and the side plate 321. The outer surface of the motor 324 is fixed to the side plate 321. The outer surface of the conveyor belt 322 is fixed with... The connecting block 323 is rotatably connected to the end of the slide block 31. For example, the conveyor belt 322 is driven to roll by the motor 324, and the conveyor belt 322 can drive the connecting block 323 to reciprocate. Since the slide block 31 is rotatably connected to the connecting block 323, and the slide block 31 is slidably connected to the side end cover 12, the connecting block 323 can drive the slide block 31 to reciprocate when it reciprocates, thereby causing the ultraviolet lamp 312 to reciprocate and increase the illumination range. At the same time, the cleaning brush roller 311 can roll on the filter screen 2 to clean hair.
[0033] The exemplary implementation of the solution proposed in this disclosure has been described in detail above with reference to preferred embodiments. However, those skilled in the art will understand that various modifications and alterations can be made to the above specific embodiments without departing from the spirit of this disclosure, and various combinations can be made to the various technical features and structures proposed in this disclosure without exceeding the protection scope of this disclosure, which is determined by the appended claims.
