[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] For ease of description, the up / down, left / right, and front / back directions in this application are as follows: Figure 2 As shown.
[0042] This disclosure provides a TV cabinet air conditioner, which includes an outdoor unit and an indoor unit. The outdoor unit is located outdoors, and the indoor unit is located indoors.
[0043] Combination Figures 1 to 9As shown in the figure, this embodiment of the present disclosure provides an indoor unit for a TV cabinet air conditioner. The indoor unit includes a TV cabinet shell 100 and an air conditioning module 20. The TV cabinet shell 100 includes a cabinet body 10, which defines a receiving space 11 with an air inlet 13 and an air outlet. The air inlet 13 is located on the bottom plate of the cabinet body 10, and the air outlet is located above the front side plate of the cabinet body 10. The air conditioning module 20 is located in the receiving space 11. The air conditioning module 20 has a return air inlet 331, which is connected to the air inlet 13. The air outlet of the air conditioning module 20 is connected to the air outlet. The air conditioning module 20 includes a heat exchanger 21 and a fan 22. The fan 22 can drive the airflow flowing into the air inlet 13 and the return air inlet 331 to exchange heat with the heat exchanger 21 of the air conditioning module 20 and then flow into the room from the air outlet to regulate the indoor temperature.
[0044] Here, the air conditioning module 20 is placed inside the cabinet 10 within the storage space 11, which means that the air conditioning module 20 is integrated inside the TV cabinet. This eliminates the need to reserve installation space for the air conditioner in the room, thereby increasing the indoor space and improving the user's living experience.
[0045] Optionally, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the cabinet 10 includes a first cabinet 101, a second cabinet 102, and a third cabinet 103 arranged sequentially in the left-right direction. The second cabinet 102 is located between the first cabinet 101 and the third cabinet 103. The second cabinet 102 defines an accommodating space 11, and the first cabinet 101 and the third cabinet 103 define a storage space. In this way, the indoor unit of the TV cabinet air conditioner has both air conditioning function and storage function.
[0046] Optionally, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the air conditioning module 20 also includes a support frame 30, which defines a heat exchange air duct. The heat exchange air duct connects the return air port and the air outlet 442. The fan 22 and the heat exchanger 21 are located inside the heat exchange air duct. The fan 22 is used to drive the airflow inside the heat exchange air duct.
[0047] Optionally, the heat exchanger 21 and the fan 22 are arranged in sequence along the flow direction of the airflow in the heat exchange duct. Since the air inlet 13 is located on the bottom plate of the accommodating space 11, the air inlet 13 is relatively close to the ground. Since there is a lot of dust on the ground, the heat exchanger 21 is arranged close to the air inlet 13. This can reduce or avoid dust accumulation on the fan 22, thereby extending the service life of the fan 22.
[0048] Optionally, the heat exchanger 21 is V-shaped, with the opening of the V facing the fan 22. This increases the area of the heat exchanger 21, thereby increasing the heat exchange air volume.
[0049] Optionally, the lower end of the fan 22 is lower than the highest end of the heat exchanger 21, so that the heat exchanger 21 can surround the fan 22. This ensures that all airflow to the fan 22 must pass through the heat exchanger 21, which can protect the fan 22, reduce the amount of dust accumulation on the fan 22, and improve its service life while ensuring the heat exchange air volume.
[0050] Optionally, the air conditioning module 20 also includes a water tray located below the heat exchanger 21 for collecting condensate produced by the heat exchanger 21.
[0051] Optionally, the support frame 30 includes a front shell, a rear shell, a left side wall, a right side wall, and a bottom wall 33. The front shell, rear shell, left side wall, right side wall, and bottom wall 33 enclose a heat exchange cavity 35, where the heat exchanger 21 is located. The bottom wall 33 is provided with a return air port 331, which corresponds to and is connected to the air inlet 13.
[0052] Optionally, such as Figure 5 As shown, the support frame 30 also includes a volute 34, which defines a fan cavity 36. The fan 22 is located inside the fan cavity 36. The inlet end of the fan cavity 36 is connected to the heat exchange cavity 35, and the outlet end of the fan cavity 36 is connected to the air outlet. The heat exchange duct includes the heat exchange cavity 35 and the fan cavity 36. In this way, the airflow flowing in from the air inlet 13 passes through the return air inlet 331, the heat exchange cavity 35 and the volute 34 in sequence, and then flows out from the air outlet.
[0053] Optionally, the TV cabinet housing 100 also includes an air outlet bracket 40, which is located within the receiving space 11. The air outlet bracket 40 is constructed with an air outlet duct 41 and an air outlet 442. The inlet of the air outlet duct 41 is connected to the outlet of the heat exchange duct (i.e., the outlet of the air conditioning module 20), and the air outlet 442 is located at the outlet end of the air outlet duct 41, corresponding to and connected to the air supply outlet. In this way, the airflow in the room enters the heat exchange duct through the air inlet 13 and the return air inlet 331 in sequence. After exchanging heat with the heat exchanger 21 and the fan 22 in the heat exchange duct, the airflow flows into the air outlet duct 41, and then flows into the room from the air outlet 442 and the air supply outlet to regulate the room temperature.
[0054] Optionally, the air outlet bracket 40 is connected to the volute 34, and the inlet of the air outlet duct 41 is connected to the outlet end of the fan cavity 36.
[0055] Optionally, the air outlet 442 is embedded in the air supply outlet, so that the airflow of the air outlet duct 41 flows directly into the room through the air outlet 442.
[0056] Optionally, the front wall of the air outlet 442 is flush with the front wall of the air supply outlet to improve the flatness and uniformity of the front wall of the cabinet 10 and enhance the appearance.
[0057] Optionally, the air outlet 442 is provided with an air guide plate, which is movably disposed at the air outlet 442 to adjust the air volume and air direction of the air outlet 442.
[0058] Optionally, the air guide plate is movably connected to the air outlet bracket 40. Specifically, the inner wall of the air outlet duct 41 is provided with a fixed bracket, which includes a fixing member and a connecting arm. The fixing member is fixedly connected to the air outlet bracket 40, and the connecting arm extends toward the air outlet 442. The air guide plate is rotatably connected to the connecting arm, so that the air guide plate can rotate relative to the air outlet 442 to open or close the air outlet 442, and can also adjust the air outlet direction of the air outlet 442.
[0059] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 9 As shown, this embodiment of the present disclosure provides an indoor unit of a TV cabinet air conditioner with a humidification module 50. The indoor unit of the TV cabinet air conditioner with the humidification module 50 further includes a humidification module 50, which includes a humidification element 51 located in the air outlet duct 41. The humidification element 51 is used to humidify the airflow in the air outlet duct 41.
[0060] In this embodiment, the indoor unit of the TV cabinet air conditioner integrates a humidification module 50 and an air conditioning module 20. This allows for the humidification of the airflow from the air conditioning module 20 while regulating the indoor temperature, thus achieving dual regulation of indoor air temperature and humidity. This increases the functionality of the indoor unit of the TV cabinet air conditioner and further enhances the user experience.
[0061] Optionally, the humidification module 50 is located within the receiving space 11. The humidification module 50 includes a water tank 52 and a water pump 53. The water tank 52 is located within the receiving space 11. The inlet of the water pump 53 is connected to the water tank 52 and is used to drive the water in the water tank 52 to flow to the humidification component 51.
[0062] In this embodiment, the humidification module 50 is also integrated into the cabinet 10, which effectively saves indoor space, improves space utilization, and facilitates user operation and use. The water tank 52 of the humidification module 50 ensures that the humidification module 50 has a sufficient water source to guarantee the humidification output. The water pump 53 provides power to the humidification module 50 to deliver water to the humidification element 51, and can also adjust the water supply and humidification output to ensure the normal operation of the humidification module 50, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the humidification module 50. In addition, the water tank 52 also facilitates users to centrally add and replace water for the humidification module 50, ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of the humidification water.
[0063] In some optional embodiments, the humidification module 50 further includes a water outlet pipe 54 and a spray device 55. The inlet end of the water outlet pipe 54 is connected to the outlet of the water pump 53. The spray device 55 is located at the outlet end of the water outlet pipe 54 and corresponds to the humidification component 51. The spray device 55 is used to spray water from the outlet end of the water outlet pipe 54 onto the humidification component 51.
[0064] In this embodiment, the spray device 55 can spray water evenly and accurately onto the humidifier 51, improving the uniformity of humidity distribution in the humidifier 51, thereby improving the uniformity of humidification of the airflow in the air outlet duct 41 and enhancing the uniformity of air outlet humidity of the indoor unit of the TV cabinet air conditioner. In addition, the spray device 55 can also rinse the surface of the humidifier 51 by spraying water onto it, reducing scale buildup.
[0065] Optionally, the humidifying element 51 can be a humidifying film, a humidifying curtain, or an ultrasonic atomizing sheet, etc.
[0066] In some alternative embodiments, the humidifier 51 may also be an atomizing device, which is connected to the water pump 53 and sprays water into the air outlet duct 41 after atomization.
[0067] Optionally, the humidification module 50 also includes a sterilization device located in the air outlet duct 41, which is used to sterilize the airflow in the air outlet duct 41, reduce bacterial growth, and protect the user's health.
[0068] Optionally, an antibacterial agent is added to the water tank 52 so that the sprayed water contains the antibacterial agent, which can inhibit the growth of bacteria in the humidifier 51.
[0069] Optionally, the humidifying element 51 and the spraying device 55 are arranged at intervals, so that the spraying device 55 and the humidifying element 51 are reserved with a certain space so that the spraying device 55 can spray water evenly onto the humidifying element 51.
[0070] Optionally, such as Figure 8 As shown, the water outlet pipe 54 includes a main water outlet pipe 541, a multi-way connector 542, and a branch water pipe 543. The inlet end of the main water outlet pipe 541 is connected to the outlet of the water pump 53. The multi-way connector 542 has multiple outlet ends, and the inlet end of the multi-way connector 542 is connected to the outlet end of the main water outlet pipe 541. There are multiple branch water pipes 543, and the inlet ends of the multiple branch water pipes 543 are respectively connected to the multiple outlet ends of the multi-way connector 542. Among them, the spray device 55 is located at the outlet end of the branch water pipe 543. The multiple branch water pipes 543 are arranged sequentially at intervals along the length direction (left and right direction) of the air outlet 442. The number of spray devices 55 and humidifiers 51 is the same as that of the branch water pipes 543 and they correspond one-to-one.
[0071] In this embodiment, the main water outlet pipe 541 is used to output water from the water pump 53, and then the water from the main water outlet pipe 541 is distributed to multiple branch water pipes 543 through the multi-port connector 542. The arrangement of multiple branch water pipes 543 increases the water outlet range of the water outlet pipe 54. Each branch water pipe 543 is independent and can be replaced and repaired individually, reducing maintenance costs. The multiple branch water pipes 543, the spray device 55, and the humidifier 51 are all arranged sequentially at intervals along the length direction (left-right direction) of the air outlet 442. This increases the humidification area and achieves uniform humidification of the airflow in the air outlet duct 41, avoiding the problem of local over- or under-humidification, and improving the uniformity and overall effect of humidification.
[0072] For example, the number of outlet ends of a multi-port connector can be two, three, four, or more. The specific number can be set according to the length of the air outlet.
[0073] Optionally, multiple water distribution pipes 543 are evenly arranged along the length (left-right direction) of the air outlet 442 to further improve the uniformity of humidification.
[0074] It is understandable that multiple water distribution pipes 543 can be unevenly arranged. In actual use, the number, spacing and size of water distribution pipes 543, spray devices 55 and humidifying components 51 can be set according to the size and shape of the air outlet 442.
[0075] Optionally, the spray device 55 includes a spray support 551 and multiple nozzles 553. The spray support 551 includes a spray pipe 552, which is connected to the outlet end of the water outlet pipe 54. The spray pipe 552 extends along the length (left-right direction) of the air outlet 442. Multiple nozzles 553 are disposed on the spray pipe 552 and spaced apart along the length (left-right direction) of the spray pipe 552. This further enhances the humidification uniformity of the humidifying element 51, allowing water to contact the airflow more fully and improving humidification efficiency. At the same time, the arrangement of multiple nozzles 553 can also increase the spray coverage area, eliminate humidification blind spots, and improve the humidification effect.
[0076] Optionally, the humidifier 51 is located in front of the spray device 55, so that the direction of the water mist sprayed by the spray device 55 is the same as the direction of airflow in the air outlet duct 41. This way, the water mist in the air outlet duct 41 can also improve the efficiency of the spray device 55 spraying onto the humidifier 51, thereby improving the humidification effect.
[0077] Optionally, the nozzle 553 is movably connected to the spray pipe 552 so that the spray angle of the nozzle 553 is adjustable. In this way, the nozzle 553 can spray directly into the air outlet duct 41, or spray to different areas of the humidifier 51 to improve the humidification effect.
[0078] Optionally, such as Figure 9As shown, the humidification module 50 also includes a water tank 56, which is located below the humidification component 51 and is used to receive water flowing down from the humidification component 51. The bottom of the water tank 56 is provided with a drain outlet 561, and a water tank 52 is located below the drain outlet 561. The water tank 52 is used to collect water discharged from the water tank 56 through the drain outlet 561.
[0079] In this embodiment, water that the humidifier 51 fails to absorb will flow into the water tank 56. The water tank 56 can effectively receive the water flowing down from the humidifier 51, preventing water from dripping randomly and causing damage or safety hazards. At the same time, the drain outlet 561 at the bottom of the water tank 56 can discharge the collected water into the water tank 52 below for reuse, realizing the recycling of water resources, improving the efficiency of water resource utilization, and reducing the cost of use.
[0080] Optionally, the bottom wall of the water tank 56 is constructed with a flow guide surface 562, which is connected to the drain outlet 561. The flow guide surface 562 is inclined downward in the direction close to the drain outlet 561 so that the water on the bottom wall of the water tank 56 flows to the drain outlet 561 through the flow guide surface 562.
[0081] In this embodiment, the guide surface 562 of the bottom wall of the water tank 56 can guide the water flow to the drain outlet 561, so that the water in the water tank 56 can be discharged smoothly, avoiding problems such as water accumulation, bacterial growth, and odor generation, and ensuring the hygiene and cleanliness of the humidification module 50. In addition, when the humidification module 50 is not running, the water pump 53 stops working and the nozzle 553 stops spraying water. The remaining water in the water tank 56 drips into the water tank 56 by gravity. At the same time, the humidification component 51 is located in the air outlet duct 41. The moisture in the humidification component 51 evaporates naturally through the airflow in the air outlet duct 41, completing the self-drying process of the humidification component 51, which can effectively prevent mold.
[0082] Optionally, the humidifier 51 is connected to the sink 56, and the sink 56 is detachably connected to the TV cabinet housing 100. This detachable connection facilitates disassembly, cleaning, and maintenance of the sink 56, improving maintenance convenience. For example, the sink 56 and the TV cabinet housing 100 can be detachably connected using screws, magnets, or snap-fit connections.
[0083] Optionally, the sink 56 and the air outlet bracket 40 can be detachably connected.
[0084] Optionally, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the humidification module 50 is located below the air outlet duct 41. The bottom wall 33 of the air outlet duct 41 has a through hole, and the humidification component 51 extends through the through hole into the air outlet duct 41.
[0085] In this embodiment, the humidifier 51 can be connected to the water outlet pipe 54 below and can also be located in the air outlet duct 41. This shortens the distance between the humidifier 51 and the airflow in the air outlet duct 41, improves the humidification efficiency, and facilitates the installation and maintenance of the humidification module 50.
