Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to, but is not limited to, the field of air handling equipment technology, specifically referring to an air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, some air conditioners use negative ion generators to purify the air. However, damp, cold, and poorly ventilated rooms are prone to mold growth, and negative ions do not have the function of eliminating mold. Long-term exposure to such an environment can pose health risks to people. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this application is to provide an air conditioner with a mold-removing function.

[0004] This application provides an air conditioner, including: a housing with an air outlet channel; and a plasma generator installed in the housing. The plasma generator includes a cover and a discharge assembly disposed within the cover. The cover has a windward portion and a leeward portion located within the air outlet channel and spaced apart along the airflow direction of the air outlet channel. The leeward portion has an air outlet, and the windward portion is closed off from the position of the discharge assembly.

[0005] The air conditioner provided in this embodiment includes a plasma generator. The discharge component of the plasma generator can generate plasma by discharging, and also generate high-energy electrons and active particles. These high-energy electrons and active particles can collide with mold molecules in the air, destroying the cell structure of the mold and rendering it inactive. These substances can be discharged through the air outlet of the plasma generator and reach the room with the airflow in the air outlet channel, thereby effectively killing mold in the air and effectively solving the problem that damp, cold, and poorly ventilated rooms are prone to mold growth, which affects the health of users. The air-facing part is enclosed to the position of the discharge component, which can avoid the negative impact of direct airflow on the performance of the discharge component.

[0006] Based on the above technical solution, the following improvements can be made to this application.

[0007] In an exemplary embodiment, the windward portion is provided with an air inlet so that the airflow of the air outlet channel can enter the housing through the air inlet and be discharged through the air outlet, and the air inlet is offset from the discharge component.

[0011] In an exemplary embodiment, the housing is provided with a first buckle and a limiting portion spaced apart along a first direction. The first buckle is configured to pass through the mounting opening in a second direction opposite to the first direction and hook onto the housing to restrict the housing from detaching from the housing in the first direction. The limiting portion is located on the side of the mounting opening away from the first buckle and abuts against the housing to restrict the limiting portion from passing through the mounting opening in the second direction.

[0012] In an exemplary embodiment, the first buckle includes an elastic arm and a hook connected to the elastic arm. The elastic arm undergoes elastic deformation as it passes through the mounting opening and undergoes reset deformation after passing through the mounting opening so that the hook hooks onto the housing; and / or, there are multiple first buckles, which are divided into two groups, one group of which is located on the windward side and the other group is located on the leeward side.

[0013] In one exemplary embodiment, the cover includes a detachably connected shell body and a base, at least a portion of the shell body is located within the air outlet channel, and the windward portion and the leeward portion are disposed on the shell body.

[0027] The principles and features of this application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only for explaining this application and are not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown in the figure, this application provides an air conditioner, including: a housing 1 and a plasma generator 2.

[0029] The housing 1 is equipped with an air outlet duct.

[0030] The plasma generator 2 is mounted on the housing 1. The plasma generator 2 includes a casing 21 and a discharge assembly 22 disposed within the casing 21. The discharge assembly 22 can be, but is not limited to, electrode plates 221, such as… Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown. The housing 21 is provided with a windward portion 215 and a leeward portion 216 located within the air outlet duct and spaced apart along the airflow direction of the air outlet duct, as... Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown. The leeward section 216 is provided with an air outlet (such as... Figure 4 (As shown). The windward portion 215 is enclosed in the position directly opposite the discharge assembly 22.

[0031] The air conditioner provided in this embodiment includes a plasma generator 2. The discharge component 22 of the plasma generator 2 can discharge to generate plasma, as well as high-energy electrons and active particles. These high-energy electrons and active particles can collide with mold molecules in the air, destroying the cell structure of the mold and rendering it inactive. These substances can be discharged through the air outlet of the plasma generator 2 and reach the room with the airflow of the air outlet channel, thereby effectively killing mold in the air and effectively solving the problem that damp, cold, and poorly ventilated rooms are prone to mold growth, which affects the health of users. The air intake 215 is enclosed directly opposite the position of the discharge component 22, which can avoid the negative impact of direct airflow on the performance of the discharge component 22.

[0032] In some exemplary embodiments, the windward portion 215 is provided with an air inlet 213 (e.g., Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the airflow in the exhaust duct can enter the housing 21 through the air inlet 213 and be discharged through the air outlet 214. Furthermore, the air inlet 213 is staggered from the discharge assembly 22.

[0033] During use, the airflow in the air outlet duct enters the casing 21 of the plasma generator 2 through the air inlet 213, and then carries plasma, high-energy electrons, active particles, and other substances out through the air outlet 214. This airflow then enters the room, effectively sterilizing the air. Because the air inlet 213 and air outlet 214 are arranged in the same direction as the airflow in the air outlet duct, the substances generated by the discharge component 22 can be discharged into the room as much as possible, which helps accelerate the diffusion rate of plasma, high-energy electrons, active particles, and other substances, thus improving the sterilization effect. Furthermore, during air conditioning operation, the airflow inside the plasma generator 2 prevents condensation from forming on the internal surface of the plasma generator 2, keeping the internal structure dry and improving the reliability of the plasma generator 2.

[0034] In other embodiments, the air inlet 213 may not be provided in the windward part 215. In this case, the substances generated by the discharge component 22 can be released near the air outlet 214 under the negative pressure generated by the airflow or by the diffusion of the plasma itself, and the airflow in the air outlet channel can be avoided from affecting the discharge component 22.

[0035] In some exemplary embodiments, the plasma generator 2 is installed at the air outlet 11 of the air outlet duct, such as... Figure 2As shown. In this way, the substances generated by plasma generator 2 can be discharged into the room as quickly as possible, which helps to accelerate the diffusion rate of substances such as plasma, high-energy electrons, and active particles, and thus helps to improve the mold-killing effect.

[0036] Of course, plasma generator 2 can also be installed in other locations in the air outlet duct. As long as the substances generated by the discharge of plasma generator 2 can be discharged into the room with the airflow, it can achieve the effect of eliminating mold.

[0037] In some exemplary embodiments, please refer to the following: Figures 3 to 5 As shown, at least a portion of the vent 214 faces the discharge component 22, which facilitates the rapid discharge of substances generated by the discharge component 22 into the room. This accelerates the diffusion of substances such as plasma, high-energy electrons, and active particles, thereby improving the mold-killing effect.

[0038] In some exemplary embodiments, the flow cross-sectional area of ​​the air outlet 214 is larger than that of the air inlet 213, which facilitates the rapid discharge of substances generated by the discharge component 22 into the room, thereby accelerating the diffusion rate of substances such as plasma, high-energy electrons, and active particles, and thus improving the mold-killing effect.

[0039] In some exemplary embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the air inlet 213 includes multiple first openings 2131, which can prevent the area of ​​a single air inlet 213 from being too large. This is beneficial for preventing external impurities from entering the plasma generator 2 and protecting the discharge component 22. It is also beneficial for preventing users from accidentally touching the discharge component 22 with their fingers, which could lead to safety accidents.

[0040] Similarly, such as Figure 3 As shown, the air outlet 214 includes multiple second openings 2141, which can prevent the area of ​​a single air outlet 214 from being too large. This is beneficial for preventing external impurities from entering the plasma generator 2 and protecting the discharge component 22, as well as for preventing users from accidentally touching the discharge component 22 with their fingers and causing safety accidents.

[0041] In some exemplary embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the wall of the air outlet duct has an installation port 12, and the cover 21 is snapped into the installation port 12. The snap-fit ​​method is simple in structure and easy to install.

[0042] Of course, the installation method of plasma generator 2 is not limited to the snap-fit ​​method. It can also be fixed by fasteners (such as screws), or a combination of fasteners and snap-fit, or a combination of fasteners and plug-in, etc., which will not be listed here.

[0043] In some exemplary embodiments, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the cover 21 is provided with a first buckle 2111 and a limiting part 2115 spaced apart along a first direction. The first buckle 2111 is configured to pass through the mounting opening 12 in a second direction opposite to the first direction and hook onto the housing 1 to prevent the cover 21 from detaching from the housing 1 in the first direction. The limiting part 2115 is located on the side of the mounting opening 12 away from the first buckle 2111 and abuts against the housing 1 to prevent the limiting part 2115 from passing through the mounting opening 12 in the second direction.

[0044] In this way, during assembly, the plasma generator 2 can be pressed against the mounting port 12 along the second direction, so that the first latch 2111 passes through the mounting port 12 and hooks onto the housing 1. At this time, constrained by the first latch 2111, the plasma generator 2 cannot move along the first direction and detach from the housing 1; constrained by the limiting part 2115, the plasma generator 2 cannot continue to move along the second direction and detach from the housing 1. This achieves the installation and fixation of the plasma generator 2 and the housing 1.

[0045] In one embodiment, the second direction is from bottom to top, and the first direction is from top to bottom.

[0046] In some exemplary embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first buckle 2111 includes an elastic arm 2112 and a hook 2113 connected to the elastic arm 2112. The elastic arm 2112 undergoes elastic deformation during the process of passing through the mounting opening 12, and undergoes reset deformation after passing through the mounting opening 12 so that the hook 2113 hooks the housing 1.

[0047] In this way, the first buckle 2111 has a relatively large elastic deformation, which makes it easier for the first buckle 2111 to pass smoothly through the mounting port 12, which helps to reduce the difficulty of the first buckle 2111 passing through the mounting port 12, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the plasma generator 2 and the housing 1.

[0048] The specific structure of the limiting part 2115 is not limited. In some embodiments, the limiting part 2115 may include a flange 2116.

[0049] For example, a flange 2116 can be provided on the circumferential edge of the cover 21, and the flange 2116 abuts against the shell 1 to achieve the limiting function.

[0050] Or, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the circumferential edge of the cover 21 can be provided with a flange 2116, and the limiting part 2115 includes a plurality of limiting bosses 2117 provided on the flange 2116. The limiting bosses 2117 abut against the housing 1 to achieve the limiting function. Since the wall surface of the air outlet channel can have a certain curvature, and the bottom wall of the cover 21 is set to be flat, it is easier to process and form and helps to save installation space. At this time, by setting the limiting bosses 2117 to abut against the housing 1, it is possible to avoid setting the flange 2116 to be a structure with uneven thickness, thus simplifying the structure of the cover 21.

[0051] In some exemplary embodiments, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, there are multiple first clips 2111, which are divided into two groups to facilitate balanced force distribution on the plasma generator 2, thereby improving the positional stability and installation reliability of the plasma generator 2. One group of first clips 2111 is located on the windward side 215, and the other group of first clips 2111 is located on the leeward side 216.

[0052] When the windward section 215 is equipped with an air inlet 213, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, one set of first latches 2111 is located at the air inlet 213, and the other set of first latches 2111 is located at the air outlet 214. In this way, the air inlet 213 and the air outlet 214 also function as clearance openings, allowing the first latches 2111 to have relatively large deformation space, facilitating their smooth passage through the mounting opening 12. This reduces the difficulty of passing the first latches 2111 through the mounting opening 12, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the plasma generator 2 and the housing 1. When the windward section 215 does not have an air inlet 213, the set of first latches 2111 located on the windward section 215 can protrude from the outer surface of the windward section 215. Of course, the set of first latches 2111 located on the leeward section 216 can also protrude from the outer surface of the leeward section 216 and be offset from the air outlet 214.

[0053] like Figure 4 As shown, there is an air passage gap between the first latch 2111 located inside the air inlet 213 and the wall of the air inlet 213, so that the air intake function of the air inlet 213 can be realized normally. There is also an air passage gap between the first latch 2111 located inside the air outlet 214 and the wall of the air outlet 214, such as... Figure 3 As shown, this is to ensure that the air outlet 214 can function properly.

[0054] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4As shown, the air inlet 213 includes two first openings 2131, and a first buckle 2111 is provided at each of the two first openings 2131. At least a portion of the elastic arm 2112 of the first buckle 2111 is located inside the first opening 2131, and at least a portion of the hook 2113 of the first buckle 2111 is located outside the first opening 2131.

[0055] like Figure 3 As shown, the air outlet 214 includes four second openings 2141, and a second buckle 2121 is provided at each of the two second openings 2141 located at both ends. At least a portion of the elastic arm 2112 of the first buckle 2111 is located inside the second opening 2141, and at least a portion of the hook 2113 of the first buckle 2111 is located outside the second opening 2141.

[0056] In some exemplary embodiments, the housing 21 includes a detachably connected housing body 211 (e.g., Figure 3 and Figure 4 (as shown) and base 212 (as shown) Figure 6 and Figure 7 (As shown). The detachable connection structure facilitates the installation of the discharge assembly 22. At least a portion of the housing body 211 is located within the air outlet channel, with the windward portion 215 and the leeward portion 216 disposed within the housing body 211, allowing the airflow within the air outlet channel to enter the housing 21 and exit through the air outlet 214.

[0057] In some exemplary embodiments, one of the shell body 211 and the base 212 is provided with a second latch 2121 (e.g., Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown), the other has a card slot 2114 (as shown). Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the second snap-fit ​​2121 is engaged in the slot 2114, allowing the shell body 211 to be closed and connected to the base 212. This snap-fit ​​method is simple in structure and easy to assemble. A protrusion 2118 can be provided at the slot 2114 to allow the second snap-fit ​​2121 to hook onto the protrusion 2118 for reliable fixation.

[0058] Of course, the installation method of the shell body 211 and the base 212 is not limited to the snap-fit ​​method. It can also be fixed by fasteners (such as screws), or a combination of fasteners and snap-fit, or a combination of fasteners and plug-in, etc., which will not be listed here.

[0059] In some exemplary embodiments, the cover 21 is snapped onto the bottom wall of the air outlet duct, and the main body 211 is snapped onto the housing 1. The base 212 is located outside the air outlet duct.

[0060] Therefore, the main body 211 is located on the upper side of the base 212. During installation, the plasma generator 2 can be pressed from bottom to top against the mounting port 12 of the housing 1 until the plasma generator 2 is snapped onto the housing 1.

[0061] In one embodiment, such as Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the base 212 has four second buckles 2121, and the shell body 211 has four slots 2114. Two slots 2114 are located between two first openings 2131 where the first buckles 2111 are located, and the other two slots 2114 are located between two second openings 2141 where the first buckles 2111 are located. The four buckles engage with the four slots 2114, connecting the shell body 211 and the base 212 together.

[0062] In some exemplary embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the base 212 is provided with a wiring port 2122, through which the discharge assembly 22 can be electrically connected to the high-voltage transformer outside the housing 21. Since the base 212 is located outside the air outlet duct, it facilitates the concealment of the wiring.

[0063] In some embodiments, the discharge assembly 22 is fixed to the base 212, such as Figure 7 As shown. The specific fixing method is not limited; for example, it can be fixed using fasteners, snap-fit ​​connections, or other methods, which will not be listed here. In one embodiment, the discharge assembly 22 is fixed to the base 212 by four screws.

[0064] In other embodiments, the discharge assembly 22 is fixed to the housing body 211, such as... Figure 5 As shown. Thus, even if a small amount of liquid enters the housing 21 when the device is off, the liquid will flow towards the base 212 under gravity, rather than flowing against gravity towards the main body 211. Therefore, when the device is off, the surface of the discharge component 22 fixed to the main body 211 is difficult to get wet, which helps improve the reliability of the plasma generator 2. Similarly, when the device is off, large dust particles are unlikely to accumulate on the surface of the discharge component 22. The specific fixing method is not limited; for example, it can be fixed with fasteners, by snap-fit, or by other methods, which will not be listed here. In one embodiment, the discharge component 22 is fixed to the main body 211 by four screws.

[0065] In some exemplary embodiments, the plasma generator 2 also includes an indicator light (not shown) disposed within the housing 21.

[0066] The indicator light can be used to indicate the status of the plasma generator 2, such as working status, standby status, or off status. The housing 21 can be provided with a light-transmitting part adapted to the indicator light so that the light from the indicator light can pass through.

[0067] In some exemplary embodiments, the indicator light is snapped onto the base 212. The indicator light can be, but is not limited to, a light strip. The base 212 may be provided with structures such as a limiting groove 2123 and a limiting flange 2125 to fix the light strip, such as... Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown. The limiting groove 2123 can be formed by multiple limiting ribs 2124. The light strip can be locked in the limiting groove 2123 and pressed down by the limiting fold 2125 to prevent the light strip from coming out of the limiting groove 2123.

[0068] like Figure 6 As shown, the base 212 has three wiring ports 2122, two of which are used for wiring the discharge assembly 22, and the other is used for wiring the indicator light. The discharge assembly 22 may have two electrical connecting pieces 222, which are configured to correspond one-to-one with the two wiring ports 2122. The two electrical connecting pieces 222 can be physically and electrically connected to the wire body through welding, fasteners, or other methods.

[0069] In this embodiment, the type of air conditioner is not limited; it can be the indoor unit of a split-type air conditioner, the entire split-type air conditioner including both an indoor and outdoor unit, or an integrated air conditioner. The indoor unit of a split-type air conditioner can be, but is not limited to, a wall-mounted indoor unit, a cabinet-type indoor unit, or a ceiling-mounted indoor unit.

[0070] In one embodiment, the air conditioner is a wall-mounted indoor unit, the housing 1 includes a front frame, the front frame is provided with an air outlet 11, and a plasma generator 2 is installed on the front frame.
