[0059] In this application, "multiple" means two or more (including two).
[0060] The following is for reference. Figures 1-15 The present invention describes a panel assembly 100 and an air conditioner 1000 according to embodiments of the present invention.
[0061] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this application proposes a panel assembly 100, including: a grille support 10, a panel body 20, and a first filter 30.
[0062] The grille support 10 includes a front frame 11 and side frames 12 located on both sides of the width of the front frame 11 and extending away from the front frame 11 along a first direction. The panel body 20 is connected to the front frame 11 and is located on the side of the front frame 11 away from the side frames 12. The panel body 20 has a panel air inlet 21 opposite to the front frame 11. The first filter 30 is detachably disposed on the side frame 12 along a second direction and is opposite to the panel body 20.
[0063] It should be noted that in the embodiments of this application, the first direction can be the front-back direction, the corresponding second direction is the left-right direction, and the third direction is the up-down direction.
[0064] Specifically, the projected contours of the face frame 11 and the side panel in the height direction are U-shaped. The face frame 11 is opposite to the panel. The airflow entering through the panel air inlet 21 can flow through the grille area on the face frame 11 and be filtered by the first filter 30 before flowing further downstream to participate in the regulation of indoor ambient temperature. The side frame 12 is located on both sides of the face frame 11 in the first direction. The first filter 30 can be inserted into or removed from the side frame 12 from the second direction to complete the installation and removal of the first filter 30. During the installation and removal of the first filter 30, the panel does not need to be disassembled, which can reduce the difficulty of disassembling the first filter 30 and improve the convenience of disassembling the first filter 30.
[0065] It is understandable that the first filter 30 is opposite to the panel body 20, and the airflow entering through the panel air inlet 21 can be filtered by the first filter 30, forming a front air inlet filter.
[0066] According to the panel assembly 100 of this application embodiment, by detachably mounting the first filter 30 on the side frame 12 and positioning it opposite the panel air inlet 21 in a first direction, the first filter 30 can be detached from a second direction. The panel body 20 mounted to the face frame 11 in the first direction does not need to be disassembled, thus enabling the first filter 30 to be removed. This makes the removal of the first filter 30 more convenient, and the removal and replacement of the first filter 30 is simpler and more convenient, which can improve the user experience and prevent dust accumulation on the first filter 30, which would weaken the temperature regulation capability of the air conditioner 1000.
[0067] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, a first guide component 40 is provided on the side of the face frame 11 opposite to the panel body 20. A first groove a is defined between the first guide component 40 and the face frame 11. A first insertion part 121 is provided on the side frame 12. The first filter 30 passes through the first insertion part 121 and the first groove a (see...). Figure 13 (As shown).
[0068] Specifically, the face frame 11 is used to assemble the panel body 20 on one side in the first direction, and a first guide component 40 is formed on the other side of the face frame 11 in the first direction. The first guide component 40 can define a first groove a with the face frame 11, and a first insertion part 121 is formed on the side frame 12. The first insertion part 121 can be configured as a socket. The first filter 30 is inserted into the socket and can be assembled to the side of the face frame 11 away from the panel air inlet 21 under the guidance of the first wire assembly.
[0069] In this way, by setting the first guide component 40, the difficulty of disassembling and assembling the first filter 30 can be reduced, making the insertion action of the first filter 30 into the expected position of the grid bracket 10 simpler, and also improving the positioning accuracy of the first filter 30.
[0070] Understandably, the filter frame 31 of the first filter 30 can have a grid-like support rib, while the face frame 11 can have a grid-like grille. After the first filter 30 is inserted into place, the orthographic projection outline of the grid-like support rib in the first direction is located within the orthographic projection outline of the grid-like grille, which reduces air intake resistance and reduces air intake noise, ensuring air intake volume and ensuring that the temperature regulation effect of the air conditioner 1000 remains stable, thus improving the user experience. At the same time, when viewed through the air inlet 21 of the panel, the support rib of the filter frame 31 of the first filter 30 can be covered by the grid-like grille, which can also improve the aesthetics of the panel assembly 100.
[0071] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the first guide assembly 40 includes: a slide plate 41 and a side plate 42. The slide plate 41 is connected to the face frame 11 on one side in the first direction, and the slide plate 41 is connected to the side plate 42 on the other side in the first direction. The side plate 42 is disposed opposite to the face frame 11 to define the first slide a.
[0072] Specifically, the slide plate 41 is constructed as a plate that is parallel or substantially parallel to the horizontal plane, and a side plate 42 is provided on the side edge of the slide plate 41 away from the face frame 11. The face frame 11, the side plate 42 and the slide plate 41 define the first slide groove a. The first filter screen 30 can not only be assembled to the expected position by the guidance of the first slide groove a, but the side plate 42 can also limit the first filter screen 30, reducing the probability that the first filter screen 30 will fall out of the first slide groove a due to airflow or vibration during transportation. This improves the working stability and reliability of the first filter screen 30 and reduces the amount of shaking of the first filter screen 30, thereby improving airflow noise and reducing the working noise of the air conditioner 1000.
[0073] like Figure 5As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, a first rib 411 is provided on the surface of the slide plate 41 that defines the first slide a.
[0074] Specifically, the first rib 411 can extend along the first direction and from one side of the slide plate 41 located in the first direction to the other side.
[0075] In this way, on the one hand, by setting the first rib 411, the contact area between the first filter screen 30 and the surface of the slide plate 41 that defines the first slide groove a can be reduced. The smaller contact area can reduce the installation resistance and disassembly resistance of the first filter screen 30, thereby further improving the ease of installation and disassembly of the first filter screen 30. On the other hand, the first rib 411 can improve the structural strength of the slide plate 41, thereby improving the overall structural stability and reliability of the first guide assembly 40.
[0076] It is understood that the friction-reducing structure between the first filter screen 30 and the first guide assembly 40 is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the filter screen skeleton 31 of the first filter screen 30 may also be provided with a second protrusion 312 on the side surface facing the face frame 11 and the side surface facing the side plate 42. The provision of the second protrusion 312 can also reduce the contact area between the face frame 11 and the filter assembly, and the contact area between the side plate 42 and the filter assembly, thereby reducing the installation resistance and disassembly resistance.
[0077] See Figure 5 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the side plate 42 includes: a side plate body 421 and a first protruding plate segment 422 located at the end of the side plate body 421. The distance between the first protruding plate segment 422 and the face frame 11 is greater than the distance between the side plate body 421 and the face frame 11, so as to define a first opening 423 located at the end of the first slide groove a and having an opening size greater than the first slide groove a. The first opening 423 is opposite to the first insertion part 121.
[0078] Specifically, the first protruding plate segment 422 is located at both ends of the side plate body 421 in the second direction, and one end of the first protruding plate segment 422 is connected to the side plate body 421, and the other end of the first protruding plate segment 422 extends away from the side plate body 421 along the first direction, so as to define a first opening 423 at both ends of the side plate 42 with the opening size gradually decreasing in the direction toward the side plate body 421, and the first opening 423 is disposed opposite to the first insertion part 121.
[0079] In this way, the first protruding plate segment 422 can define a first opening 423 with a gradually decreasing opening size, so that the first filter screen 30 can enter through the larger opening end of the first opening 423, and gradually move to the smaller opening end of the first opening 423 under the guidance of the first protruding plate segment 422. This allows the first filter screen 30 to be quickly aligned during assembly, thereby reducing assembly difficulty and improving assembly efficiency.
[0080] Further integration Figure 5 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the side panel 42 further includes a second protruding plate segment 424, which is spaced apart from the first protruding plate segment 422, and the distance between the second protruding plate segment 424 and the panel is greater than the distance between the side panel body 421 and the face frame 11.
[0081] Specifically, there is at least one second protruding plate segment 424, which is located between the two first protruding plate segments 422 and spaced apart from the first protruding plate segments 422. The second protruding plate segment 424 is configured to be located away from the face frame 11 relative to the side plate body 421, so that the second protruding plate segment 424 can be spaced apart from the first filter screen 30, reducing the contact area between the first filter screen 30 and the side plate 42, which can further reduce the installation resistance and disassembly resistance of the first filter screen 30 and improve the ease of installation and disassembly.
[0082] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the side panel 42 further includes a limiting plate segment 425, which is connected to the side panel body 421 and extends away from the side panel body 421 in a third direction to limit the first filter 30 in a first direction.
[0083] Specifically, the limiting plate segment 425 is formed on the side plate body 421, and the limiting plate segment 425 extends relative to the side plate body 421 in a third direction, such as extending upward or downward. By setting the limiting plate segment 425, the size of the side plate 42 in the third direction is increased, thereby improving the limiting effect on the first filter screen 30. This can further reduce the probability of the first filter screen 30 disengaging from the first slide groove a, improve the fixing stability and reliability of the first filter screen 30, and reduce the probability of the first filter screen 30 disengaging from the first slide groove a during handling or operation.
[0084] Combination Figure 2 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, there are multiple first filters 30, and the multiple first filters 30 are sequentially arranged on the side frame 12 in a third-direction orientation.
[0085] Specifically, the panel air inlet 21 has a large coverage area on the panel body 20, while the first filter 30 is constructed in multiple ways. The orthographic projection outline of the multiple first filters 30 in the first direction can completely cover the panel air inlet 21, ensuring that all the air entering from the front can be filtered. In addition, the area of a single first filter 30 can be set to be smaller. The rigidity of a smaller area first filter 30 is easier to control, while the probability of bending and deformation of a more rigid first filter 30 is lower. The assembly and disassembly of the first filter 30 under the guidance of the first guide component 40 is easier, which can further reduce the difficulty of assembly and disassembly.
[0086] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the first guide component 40 is symmetrically arranged along the centerline of the face frame 11.
[0087] In this way, the first guide component 40 is symmetrically arranged, so that the first filter 30 can be assembled to the grille bracket 10 from either side of the second direction. This not only reduces the assembly difficulty, but also allows the first filter 30 to be assembled from the other side of the second direction when there is an obstacle on either side of the panel assembly 100 in the second direction. This provides more assembly options, higher adaptability, and further improves the user experience while reducing the difficulty of disassembly and assembly.
[0088] It should be noted that there are multiple sets of first guide components 40, and each first filter screen 30 has a set of first guide components 40 on both sides of the third direction.
[0089] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the panel assembly 100 further includes: a second filter 50, and the grille support 10 further includes: a bottom frame 13, the bottom frame 13 being connected to the front frame 11, and the bottom frame 13 being located on the side of the front frame 11 away from the panel body 20 in a first direction, and a bottom air inlet 131 being formed on the bottom frame 13, and the second filter 50 being detachably disposed on the side frame 12 along a second direction, and the second filter 50 being opposite to the bottom air inlet 131.
[0090] Specifically, the bottom frame 13 is located at the bottom of the front frame 11 in the third direction, and a bottom air inlet 131 is formed on the bottom frame 13. The bottom air inlet 131 can increase the air intake to improve the temperature regulation effect. The second filter 50 can filter the airflow entering through the bottom air inlet 131. The second filter 50 is also assembled to the grille bracket 10 along the second direction via the second insertion part 122 of the side frame 12. During the assembly of the second filter 50, it is not necessary to disassemble the panel body 20, which can also reduce the difficulty of disassembling and assembling the second filter 50 and improve the user experience.
[0091] It should be pointed out that, such as Figure 9 As shown, the second filter 50 may include a filter body 51 and a push-pull portion 52 disposed at one end of the filter body 51. The push-pull portion 52 is formed as a push-pull plate structure. The second filter 50 can be installed by pushing the push-pull portion 52 and disassembled by pulling the push-pull portion 52.
[0092] Combination Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, a second insertion part 122 is provided on the side frame 12, and a second guide component 60 is provided on the bottom frame 13 and the front frame 11. A second slide groove b is defined between the second guide component 60 and the bottom frame 13, and the second filter 50 passes through the second insertion part 122 and the second slide groove b.
[0093] Specifically, the bottom surface of the second slide groove b can be defined by the top surface of the bottom frame 13. After the second filter screen 50 passes through the second insertion part 122, it is further assembled to the expected position under the action of the second slide groove b. By setting the second slide groove b, the probability of interference between the surrounding parts and the second filter screen 50 can be reduced, thereby reducing the difficulty of disassembling and assembling the second filter screen 50.
[0094] Combination Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the second guide assembly 60 includes: a plurality of first protrusions 61 and a protruding plate assembly 62 formed on the bottom frame 13 and disposed opposite to the first protrusions 61 in a first direction. The first protrusions 61 are disposed on the front frame 11 and extend away from the front frame 11 and are spaced apart from the bottom frame 13 in a third direction. The protruding plate assembly 62 includes: a connecting plate 621 and a counter plate 622. The connecting plate 621 is connected to the bottom frame 13, and the counter plate 622 is connected to the side of the connecting plate 621 away from the bottom frame 13. The connecting plate 621 and the first protrusions 61 are both spaced apart from the bottom frame 13 to define the second groove b.
[0095] In other words, the first protrusion 61 and the protruding plate assembly 62 are at least partially opposite to the bottom surface of the bottom frame 13, so as to define the second groove b by the first protrusion 61, the protruding plate assembly 62 and the bottom frame 13. The first protrusion 61 can be connected to the face frame 11, and the first protrusion 61 can also be connected to the side plate 42 adjacent to the second filter screen 50. The connecting plate 621 of the protruding plate assembly 62 is connected to the bottom frame 13, and the relative plate 622 is arranged opposite to the bottom frame 13, so that the gap between the relative plate 622 and the surface of the bottom frame 13, and between the first protrusion 61 and the surface of the bottom frame 13 defines the second groove b.
[0096] Therefore, the position of the second slide groove b is more reasonable, which makes the guiding effect of the second slide groove b on the second filter screen 50 better. At the same time, the relative plate 622 and the first protrusion 61 can also limit the second filter screen 50, reduce the amount of movement of the second filter screen 50 in the third direction under the action of airflow, so as to reduce the intake noise, improve the user experience, and ensure the stability and reliability of the temperature regulation effect.
[0097] It should be noted that the filter body 51 of the second filter 50 also has supporting ribs. Correspondingly, in the third direction, the orthographic projection outline of the supporting ribs coincides with the orthographic projection outline of the grid-like grille on the bottom frame 13, so as to reduce air intake resistance, increase air intake volume, and ensure stable temperature regulation effect.
[0098] Combination Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the opposing plate 622 includes: a first plate segment 6221 and a second plate segment 6222. The second plate segment 6222 is located at the end of the first plate segment 6221 in a second direction, and the distance between the second plate segment 6222 and the bottom frame 13 is greater than the distance between the first plate segment 6221 and the bottom frame 13, so as to define a second opening 623 with an opening size greater than the second slide groove b. The second opening 623 is opposite to the second insertion part 122.
[0099] Specifically, the second plate segment 6222 is located at the end of the first plate segment 6221 in the second direction, and one end of the second plate segment 6222 is connected to the first plate segment 6221, while the other end extends away from the bottom frame 13 in the third direction relative to the first plate segment 6221, thereby defining a second opening 623 with a gradually decreasing opening size. The opening size of the second opening 623 is the largest at the end away from the first plate segment 6221, and the opening size of the second opening 623 is the smallest at the end adjacent to the first plate segment 6221. This allows the second plate segment 6222 to guide the assembly of the second filter 50 to the grid bracket 10, reducing the difficulty of aligning the second filter 50 and making it easier for the second filter 50 to enter the second slide groove b, thereby reducing assembly difficulty and improving assembly efficiency.
[0100] According to some embodiments of this application, the second guide component 60 is symmetrically arranged relative to the centerline of the face frame 11.
[0101] This allows the second filter 50 to be mounted on the grille assembly from either side of the second direction, enriching the assembly options for the second filter 50, improving adaptability, and reducing the impact of environmental obstacles on the disassembly of the second filter 50.
[0102] It is understandable that the first filter 30 and the second filter 50 can be assembled on the same side or on opposite sides in the second direction, and both the first filter 30 and the second filter 50 can be assembled on either side of the second direction. The impact of environmental obstacles on the assembly and disassembly of the first filter 30 and the second filter 50 is lower, and the ease of disassembly is higher.
[0103] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the first filter 30 includes a filter frame 31 and a disassembly plate 32 located at one end of the filter frame 31 in a second direction, and the filter frame 31 is provided with reinforcing ribs 311.
[0104] It is understandable that the filter screen frame 31 is provided with a filter screen, and the overall thickness of the first filter screen 30 is relatively thin, which leads to a higher probability of deformation of the first filter screen 30. In order to reduce the probability of deformation of the first filter screen 30, reinforcing ribs 311 can be provided on the filter screen frame 31. The reinforcing ribs 311 can be formed on the width edge of the filter screen frame 31 or on the length edge of the filter screen frame 31. By providing reinforcing ribs 311, the rigidity of the first filter screen 30 can be improved, the probability of deformation of the first filter screen 30 can be reduced, thereby reducing the probability of the first filter screen 30 falling out of the first sliding groove a, and improving the fixing stability and reliability of the first filter screen 30 in the grid support 10.
[0105] Combination Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the disassembly plate 32 includes: an extension plate segment 321 and a disassembly plate segment 322. The extension plate segment 321 is connected to the filter frame 31. The disassembly plate segment 322 is located at the end of the extension plate segment 321 away from the filter frame 31 and faces the orthographic projection outline of the filter frame 31. The outline area of the disassembly plate segment 322 is larger than the outline area of the extension plate segment 321. A pull ring 323 for flipping relative to the disassembly plate 32 is also provided inside the disassembly plate segment 322.
[0106] Specifically, the extension plate segment 321 is formed at one end of the filter frame 31 in the second direction, and the size of the extension plate segment 321 is smaller than the size of the filter frame 31. The end of the extension plate segment 321 away from the filter frame 31 is provided with a disassembly plate segment 322. The orthographic projection contour of the disassembly plate segment 322 toward the filter frame 31 is larger than the orthographic projection contour of the extension plate segment 321, so that the peripheral edge of the disassembly plate segment 322 can protrude from the disassembly plate segment 322. When disassembling and assembling the first filter 30, the disassembly plate segment 322 can be pushed and pulled to realize the disassembly and assembly of the first filter 30, which can further reduce the difficulty of disassembling the first filter 30.
[0107] Of course, the disassembly method of the first filter 30 in this application embodiment is not limited to pulling out the disassembly plate 322. It is also possible to further open a groove on the disassembly plate 322, and set a pull ring 323 in the groove. The pull ring 323 is rotatably set on the disassembly plate 322 or the extension plate 321, and can switch between an open state and a retracted state. In the retracted state, the pull ring 323 is located in the groove of the disassembly plate 322, and the outer surface of the pull ring 323 is flush with the outer surface of the disassembly plate 322 to reduce the probability of interference between the pull ring 323 and the surrounding components. When the pull ring 323 is in the open state, it can be flipped relative to the disassembly plate 322 to at least partially protrude from the outer surface of the disassembly plate 322. The part protruding from the outer surface of the disassembly plate 322 is formed into a ring body, so as to directly pull out the pull ring 323 to realize the disassembly of the first filter 30, and further reduce the difficulty of disassembling the first filter 30.
[0108] like Figure 10 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the panel assembly 100 further includes a third filter 70, which is detachably mounted to the side frame 12 and is adapted in a second direction to block the first filter 30 and the second filter 50.
[0109] In other words, a grille is also formed on the side frame 12, which can be used for air intake, so that the grille support 10 can have grilles formed on the surface in the first direction, the surface in the second direction, and the surface in the third direction, thereby increasing the air intake volume and improving the temperature regulation effect. The third filter 70 is installed on the side frame 12 and can be used to filter the incoming airflow in the second direction. The third filter 70 can be disassembled and installed along the second direction. After the third filter 70 is disassembled, the disassembly plate 322 of the first filter 30 and the push-pull part 52 of the second filter 50 are exposed, and the first filter 30 and the second filter 50 can be further disassembled and installed.
[0110] In this way, the third filter 70 can be removed without first removing the panel, which can further improve the ease of removing the first filter 30, the second filter 50 and the third filter 70 in the panel assembly 100. In addition, the third filter 70 can block the disassembly plate section 322 and the push-pull part 52, reducing the probability of the first filter 30 and the second filter 50 being dislodged due to misoperation, and improving the working reliability and stability of the first filter 30 and the second filter 50.
[0111] See Figure 10 As shown, according to some embodiments of this application, the third filter 70 is provided with a snap-fit portion 71 on its periphery, a plug-in portion 72 is provided at one end of the third filter 70 in the third direction, and a lifting portion 73 is provided at the other end of the filter in the third direction.
[0112] In other words, the insertion part 72 of the third filter 70 can be inserted into the side frame 12 and engaged with the side frame 12 on the periphery. The lifting part 73 at the top can be lifted to disengage the insertion part 72 from the side frame 12 after the contact engagement part 71 engages with the side frame 12, thereby completing the disassembly of the third filter 70. The connection stability and reliability between the third filter 70 and the side frame 12 are higher, and the disassembly and assembly of the third filter 70 are also easier.
[0113] Below, in conjunction with Figures 11-15 The disassembly process of the first filter 30, the second filter 50 and the third filter 70 in the embodiments of this application will be described in detail.
[0114] like Figure 11 As shown, first release the snap-fit between the snap-fit part 71 of the third filter 70 and the side frame 12, and then pull up the lifting part 73. The lifting part 73 can be configured as a handle to disengage the insertion part 72 from the side frame 12, thereby completing the removal of the third filter 70 from the grid bracket 10.
[0115] Furthermore, see Figure 12 , Figure 13 and Figure 15 As shown, after the third filter 70 is disassembled, the disassembly plate 322 of the first filter 30 and the push-pull part 52 of the second filter 50 are exposed in the first insertion part 121 and the second insertion part 122, respectively. The disassembly plate 322 can be pulled out directly to complete the disassembly of the first filter 30, or the push-pull part 52 can be pulled out directly to complete the disassembly of the second filter 50.
[0116] Of course, combined Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown, instead of pulling out the disassembly plate 322, you can press the pull ring 323 to flip the pull ring 323 relative to the disassembly plate 322 so that it protrudes from the disassembly plate 322, and then pull out the pull ring 323 to complete the disassembly of the first filter screen 30.
