[0002] Currently, air conditioners, as air handling equipment, have become an indispensable appliance in many areas of life and office. In recent years, users have increasingly higher requirements for the air delivery effect and comfort of air conditioners.

[0003] Existing indoor air conditioning units typically have only a single air supply system with a vertical oscillating blade assembly at the air outlet. The direction of airflow into the space is adjusted by changing the deflection angle of this assembly. At a specific deflection angle, the air supply range of the outlet is relatively small, only meeting the air supply needs of small spaces. To meet the air supply needs of larger spaces, the oscillating blade assembly must be driven to swing and sweep the airflow. This results in a large air supply dead zone and significant temperature stratification within the room, reducing comfort. Therefore, the technical problem this invention aims to solve is to design a technology that can flexibly adjust the air supply volume and reduce air supply dead zones to minimize temperature stratification within the room.

[0057] The following disclosure provides many different embodiments or examples for implementing various structures of this invention. To simplify the disclosure, specific examples of components and arrangements are described below. These are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Furthermore, reference numerals and / or letters may be repeated in different examples; such repetition is for simplification and clarity and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or arrangements discussed. In addition, examples of various specific processes and materials are provided in this invention, but those skilled in the art will recognize the application of other processes and / or the use of other materials.

[0058] In this embodiment of the invention, the air conditioner performs a refrigeration or heating cycle by using a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve, and an evaporator. Taking the refrigeration cycle as an example, the refrigeration cycle includes a series of processes involving compression, condensation, expansion, and evaporation to cool the indoor space.

[0059] The specific process is as follows: Low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant enters the compressor, which compresses it into a high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant gas and discharges the compressed refrigerant gas. The discharged refrigerant gas flows into the condenser. The condenser condenses the compressed refrigerant into a liquid phase, and the heat is released to the surrounding environment through the condensation process.

[0060] The expansion valve expands the high-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant that condenses in the condenser into a low-pressure liquid refrigerant. The evaporator evaporates the expanded refrigerant in the expansion valve and returns the low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant gas to the compressor. The evaporator achieves its cooling effect by utilizing the latent heat of refrigerant evaporation to exchange heat with the material being cooled. Throughout the cycle, the air conditioner regulates the temperature of the indoor space.

[0061] The outdoor unit of an air conditioner refers to the part of the refrigeration cycle that includes the compressor and the outdoor heat exchanger. The indoor unit of an air conditioner includes the indoor heat exchanger, and an expansion valve can be provided in either the indoor or outdoor unit.

[0062] The indoor and outdoor heat exchangers function as either condensers or evaporators. When the indoor heat exchanger is used as a condenser, the air conditioner functions as a heater in heating mode; when the indoor heat exchanger is used as an evaporator, the air conditioner functions as a cooler in cooling mode.

[0063] In the first aspect, combining Figures 1 to 8 As shown in the figure, this embodiment of the present disclosure provides an air conditioner indoor unit, which includes a casing 1 and an air guide plate 2.

[0064] The housing 1 has an air inlet side 11 and an air outlet side 12. The air outlet side 12 has a first air outlet 13 and a second air outlet 14. The first air outlet 13 is located on the front side of the housing 1, and the second air outlet 14 is located on the left and / or right side of the housing 1. A guide channel 15 is formed inside the housing 1, and a third air outlet 16 is formed on the side wall of the guide channel 15 facing the first air outlet 13.

[0065] Combination Figure 2 As shown, the air guide plate 2 is located inside the housing 1, and the air guide plate 2 is detachably and openably disposed at the third air outlet 16.

[0066] Among them, combined Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the arrow indicates the direction of gas flow. When the air guide plate 2 is in the state of closing the third air outlet 16, the air guide channel 15 is connected to the second air outlet 14, so that the indoor unit of the air conditioner can discharge air to the side.

[0067] Combination Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown in the figure, the arrows indicate the direction of gas flow. When the air guide plate 2 is in the first open state, the air guide channel 15 is divided into the first sub-channel 151 and the second sub-channel 152. The first sub-channel 151 is connected to the second air outlet 14. The second sub-channel 152, the third air outlet 16 and the first air outlet 13 are connected in sequence, so that the indoor unit of the air conditioner can simultaneously vent air to the front and the side.

[0068] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the arrows indicate the direction of gas flow. When the air guide plate 2 is in the second open state, the air guide channel 15, the third air outlet 16 and the first air outlet 13 are connected in sequence to realize the air outlet of the indoor unit of the air conditioner to the front.

[0069] Specifically, the indoor unit of the air conditioner includes a casing 1 and an air guide plate 2. The air outlet side 12 of the casing 1 is provided with a first air outlet 13 and a second air outlet 14. The first air outlet 13 is located on the front side of the casing 1, and the second air outlet 14 is located on the left and / or right side of the casing 1. A guide channel 15 is formed inside the casing 1, and a third air outlet 16 is formed on the side wall of the guide channel 15. The air guide plate 2 is closable at the third air outlet 16. When the air guide plate 2 is in the closed state, the guide channel 15 is connected to the second air outlet 14, and the indoor unit of the air conditioner discharges air to the side. When the air guide plate 2 is in the first open state, the air is guided... A portion of the channel 15 is connected to the second air outlet 14, and another portion of the guide channel 15 is connected to the first air outlet 13, allowing the indoor unit of the air conditioner to simultaneously discharge air to the front and sides. When the air guide plate 2 is in the second open state, the guide channel 15 is connected to the first air outlet 13, allowing the indoor unit of the air conditioner to discharge air to the front. This application can realize multiple air discharge modes, making it convenient for users to flexibly adjust the air volume. For large rooms, the indoor unit of the air conditioner can achieve full-area air supply by discharging air to the front and sides simultaneously, which can reduce air supply blind spots, thereby reducing temperature stratification in the room, greatly improving comfort, and optimizing the user experience.

[0070] For example, the indoor unit of the air conditioner can be a cabinet type or a wall-mounted type, and there is no limitation here.

[0071] The following example uses a cabinet-type air conditioner as an example to illustrate the point.

[0072] The air inlet side 11 of the housing 1 is located at the rear of the housing 1, and the air outlet side 12 is located at the front and side of the housing 1. The first air outlet 13 is rectangular. When the indoor unit of the air conditioner blows air forward, the air mainly blows forward from the periphery of the front guide plate 6.

[0073] Combination Figure 6 As shown, there are two second air outlets 14. The two second air outlets 14 are located on the left and right sides of the housing 1 to form a left air outlet and a right air outlet. The second air outlets 14 can be located on the side of the housing 1, or the second air outlets 14 can be located at the junction of the front and side of the housing 1. That is, the opening direction of the second air outlets 14 intersects with the left and right direction of the housing 1 but is not perpendicular, while the opening direction of the first air outlet 13 is perpendicular to the left and right direction of the housing 1.

[0074] Specifically, by setting the positions of the first air outlet 13 and the second air outlet 14 differently, the opening directions of the first air outlet 13 and the second air outlet 14 can be different, allowing the first air outlet 13 and the second air outlet 14 to emit air in different directions. Multiple air outlets can emit air simultaneously or individually, enriching the air emission modes. When multiple air outlets emit air simultaneously, the air emission area can be expanded, thereby improving air emission efficiency.

[0075] In some embodiments of this application, the indoor unit of the air conditioner also includes a cross-flow fan 3.

[0076] There are two cross-flow fans 3, which are arranged side by side and are rotatably installed inside the housing 1 and located at the air inlet end of the air guide channel 15. The cross-flow fans 3 are used to drive air to enter the housing 1 from the air inlet side 11 and flow to the air outlet side 12 through the air guide channel 15.

[0077] Specifically, by setting up a cross-flow fan 3, when the cross-flow fan 3 rotates, it can drive the airflow from the air inlet side 11 into the casing 1, and flow to the air outlet side 12 through the guide channel 15, thereby increasing the airflow rate and thus improving the cooling or heating efficiency of the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0078] When there are two second air outlets 14, there are also two cross-flow fans 3, and the cross-flow fans 3 correspond one-to-one with the two air ducts. The cross-flow fans 3 are located at the air inlet end of the air ducts, and the two cross-flow fans 3 are symmetrically arranged along the symmetrical surface of the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0079] In the indoor unit of the air conditioner, the axial direction of the cross-flow fan 3 extends along the height direction of the indoor unit.

[0080] In some embodiments of this application, one side of the air guide plate 2 is rotatably connected to the housing 1 at the third air outlet 16 away from the cross-flow fan 3.

[0081] Specifically, by rotating one side of the air guide plate 2 to the housing 1 at the third air outlet 16 away from the cross-flow fan 3, when the air guide plate 2 is opened, the free end of the air guide plate 2 faces the cross-flow fan 3, which can make the airflow generated by the rotation of the cross-flow fan 3 flow better to the second air outlet 14 and / or the third air outlet 16.

[0082] In some embodiments of this application, the indoor unit of the air conditioner also includes a drive unit (not shown in the figure).

[0083] The drive unit is located in the housing 1 and is connected to the cross-flow fan 3 to drive the cross-flow fan 3 to rotate.

[0084] Specifically, a drive unit is set up to provide power for the rotation of the cross-flow fan 3; the drive unit can be located above or below the cross-flow fan 3, depending on the actual needs.

[0085] In some embodiments of this application, combined with Figure 4 As shown, the indoor unit of the air conditioner also includes a first volute 4 and a second volute 5.

[0086] The first volute 4 and the second volute 5 are both arc-shaped structures, and the bending directions of the first volute 4 and the second volute 5 are the same. The first volute 4 and the second volute 5 define the flow channel 15, thereby providing a channel for the flow of air.

[0087] Specifically, the flow channel 15 is also arc-shaped, and the flow channel 15 bends from the cross-flow fan 3 toward the second air outlet 14, while the third air outlet 16 is located on the second volute 5.

[0088] Specifically, in combination Figure 2 As shown, the two air ducts are arranged symmetrically, with each air duct 15 facing the corresponding second air outlet 14.

[0089] In some embodiments of this application, the indoor unit of the air conditioner also includes a heat exchanger.

[0090] The heat exchanger is located inside the casing 1 and between the air inlet side 11 and the cross-flow fan 3.

[0091] Specifically, the heat exchanger is directly opposite the air inlet side 11. The heat exchanger is used to exchange heat with the air entering the casing 1 so that the indoor unit of the air conditioner can blow out cold air when cooling or hot air when heating.

[0092] In this way, the two flow channels 15 can share a heat exchanger, thus eliminating the need for a separate heat exchanger, which helps to simplify the structure of the air conditioner indoor unit and reduce production costs.

[0093] In some embodiments of this application, the indoor unit of the air conditioner also includes a front guide vane 6 and a telescopic mechanism 7.

[0094] The front guide vane 6 is detachably mounted at the first air outlet 13; one end of the telescopic mechanism 7 is connected to the front guide vane 6, and the other end of the telescopic mechanism 7 is connected to the housing 1; the telescopic mechanism 7 is configured to drive the front guide vane 6 to move toward or away from the first air outlet 13 to open or close the first air outlet 13.

[0095] Specifically, by setting a front guide plate 6 and a telescopic mechanism 7, one end of the telescopic mechanism 7 is connected to the front guide plate 6, and the other end of the telescopic mechanism 7 is connected to the housing 1. When the telescopic mechanism 7 extends, it can drive the front guide plate 6 to move away from the first air outlet 13 to open the first air outlet 13; when the telescopic mechanism 7 retracts, it can drive the front guide plate 6 to move closer to the first air outlet 13 to close the first air outlet 13.

[0096] Specifically, when the telescopic mechanism 7 drives the front guide plate 6 to open the first air outlet 13, the indoor unit of the air conditioner can blow air forward; when the telescopic mechanism 7 drives the front guide plate 6 to close the first air outlet 13, the indoor unit of the air conditioner stops blowing air forward.

[0097] In some embodiments of this application, combined with Figure 2 As shown, a mounting base 9 is provided in the housing 1 between the two second volutes 5. The mounting base 9 is used to fix the telescopic mechanism 7.

[0098] In some other embodiments of this application, the telescopic mechanism 7 includes a drive motor, a gear, and a rack. The drive motor is mounted on the mounting base 9. The gear is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor. One end of the rack meshes with the gear, and the other end of the rack is connected to the front guide plate 6. The drive motor drives the gear to rotate so as to drive the rack to telescopically move relative to the first air outlet 13.

[0099] In some embodiments of this application, the telescopic mechanism 7 includes a telescopic motor and a telescopic rod 71. The telescopic motor is mounted on the mounting base 9. One end of the telescopic rod 71 is driven and connected to the telescopic motor, and the other end of the telescopic rod 71 is connected to the front guide plate 6. The telescopic motor is configured to drive the telescopic rod 71 to reciprocate so that the front guide plate 6 moves toward or away from the first air outlet 13.

[0100] In some embodiments of this application, the indoor unit of the air conditioner also includes a side guide plate 8 and a drive mechanism.

[0101] The side guide plate 8 is detachably mounted at the second air outlet 14; the drive mechanism is mounted on the housing 1 and is rotatably connected to the side guide plate 8, and is used to drive the side guide plate 8 to rotate to open or close the second air outlet 14.

[0102] Specifically, by setting a side guide plate 8 and a drive mechanism, the side guide plate 8 can be rotated to open or close the second air outlet 14 under the drive mechanism, so that the indoor unit of the air conditioner can discharge air from the side.

[0103] In some embodiments of this application, the side guide plate 8 includes a first plate segment 81, a second plate segment 82, and a connecting plate 83.

[0104] The first plate segment 81 and the second plate segment 82 are spaced apart, and the connecting plate 83 is connected between the first plate segment 81 and the second plate segment 82. A ventilation opening 84 is formed between the first plate segment 81, the second plate segment 82 and the connecting plate 83.

[0105] Specifically, by including a first section 81, a second section 82, and a connecting plate 83 in the side guide plate 8, and connecting plate 83 connecting between the first section 81 and the second section 82, the overall stability of the side guide plate 8 is improved. On the other hand, a vent 84 is formed between the first section 81, the second section 82, and the connecting plate 83, which reduces the air outlet resistance of the second air outlet 14.

[0106] In a second aspect, embodiments of this disclosure provide an air conditioner including an indoor unit as described in any of the embodiments of the first aspect above.

[0107] Since it includes the indoor unit of the air conditioner as described in the first aspect embodiment above, it possesses all of its beneficial effects, which will not be elaborated further here.
