Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and in particular to an indoor air conditioning unit. Background Technology

[0002] With social development and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, air conditioning has become widely used. Traditional air conditioners mainly regulate indoor temperature by cooling or heating to meet people's needs for temperature comfort. However, during operation, indoor air is often in a relatively closed state, which can easily lead to a decline in indoor air quality and affect human health and comfort.

[0003] To improve indoor air quality, a new type of air conditioner with a fresh air function has been introduced, which can introduce fresh air and exchange indoor and outdoor air. However, in this type of air conditioner, the fresh air outlet not only affects the aesthetics of the overall appearance, but also impacts the user experience because the air volume cannot be controlled as needed. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings in the related technologies, this application provides an indoor air conditioning unit to solve the problem that the fresh air outlet affects the aesthetics of the overall appearance of the air conditioner and the user experience.

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, in a first aspect, this application provides an air conditioner indoor unit, which includes:

[0006] The housing has an air conditioning cavity and a fresh air cavity formed inside. The housing is provided with an air conditioning inlet and an air conditioning outlet communicating with the air conditioning cavity. The housing is also provided with a fresh air inlet and a fresh air outlet communicating with the fresh air cavity. The fresh air inlet is connected to the outside, and the fresh air outlet, the air conditioning inlet, and the air conditioning outlet are all connected to the indoor environment. The fresh air outlet and the air conditioning outlet are arranged sequentially along a first direction.

[0007] An air conditioning fan is provided in the air conditioning cavity and is used to draw indoor air into the air conditioning cavity through the air conditioning inlet.

[0008] A heat exchanger is disposed inside the air conditioning cavity. The heat exchanger is used to exchange heat with the indoor air inside the air conditioning cavity to form a temperature-regulating airflow. The air conditioning fan is also used to blow the temperature-regulating airflow into the room.

[0009] An air conditioning damper is movably disposed at the air conditioning outlet to open or close the air conditioning outlet.

[0010] The first driving unit is located on the side of the air conditioning damper away from the fresh air outlet, and is used to drive the air conditioning damper to open or close the air conditioning outlet.

[0011] Fresh air assembly, the fresh air assembly comprising:

[0012] The fresh air damper is movably disposed at the fresh air outlet to open or close the fresh air outlet.

[0013] The second drive unit is located on the side of the fresh air damper opposite to the air conditioner outlet, and is used to drive the fresh air damper to open or close the fresh air outlet.

[0014] In related technologies, the fresh air outlet of the indoor unit of an air conditioner is usually not equipped with a structure to open or close the fresh air outlet, that is, the fresh air outlet is always open. This not only affects the overall aesthetics of the indoor unit, but also affects the user experience because the air volume cannot be controlled as needed.

[0015] In this application, since a fresh air damper is movably provided at the fresh air outlet, and since the second drive unit is used to drive the fresh air damper to open or close the fresh air outlet, on the one hand, when the fresh air damper closes the fresh air outlet, the fresh air damper can cover the fresh air outlet, making the appearance of the air conditioner indoor unit more complete, thereby improving the overall aesthetics and effectively solving the problem of the fresh air outlet affecting the overall aesthetics in related technologies.

[0016] On the other hand, by driving the fresh air damper through the second drive unit, the size of the fresh air outlet can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the airflow rate. This allows users to control the airflow rate as needed by driving the fresh air damper through the second drive unit, thus improving the user experience and effectively solving the problem of fresh air outlets affecting user experience in related technologies.

[0017] In addition, since the fresh air outlet and the air conditioning outlet are arranged sequentially along the first direction, and since the first drive unit for driving the air conditioning damper is located on the side of the air conditioning damper away from the fresh air outlet, and the second drive unit is located on the side of the fresh air damper away from the air conditioning outlet, in the first direction, the first drive unit and the second drive unit are not only respectively located on both sides of the fresh air outlet and the air conditioning outlet, but also respectively located on both sides of the fresh air damper and the air conditioning damper.

[0018] The drive units distributed on both sides not only avoid the problems of center of gravity shift and mechanical interference that may be caused by the centralized arrangement of drive units, making the damper movement smoother, reducing wear and extending service life, but also allow the fresh air damper and air conditioning damper, as well as the fresh air outlet and air conditioning outlet, to be closer together. This facilitates a compact arrangement of the fresh air damper and air conditioning damper, as well as the fresh air outlet and air conditioning outlet, which in turn helps to achieve a miniaturized design of the indoor air conditioning unit. At the same time, it also helps to make the appearance of the indoor air conditioning unit more integrated and further enhances its aesthetics.

[0019] Optionally, the air conditioning outlet and the fresh air outlet are arranged adjacent to each other in sequence along the first direction, and the air conditioning damper and the fresh air damper are arranged adjacent to each other in sequence along the first direction.

[0020] In the first direction, there is a gap between the air conditioning damper and the adjacent fresh air damper.

[0021] This arrangement, on the one hand, arranges the air conditioning damper and the fresh air damper adjacent to each other along the first direction, so that there is no need to set up decorative parts or partition structures to separate the air conditioning damper and the fresh air damper. This can further make the appearance of the indoor unit of the air conditioner more integrated, and thus further improve the aesthetics of the appearance.

[0022] On the other hand, the gap between the air conditioning damper and the fresh air damper can effectively prevent them from interfering with or colliding with each other during operation, ensuring the smooth opening and closing of the dampers, thereby reducing the risk of mechanical failure and extending the service life of the dampers.

[0023] Optionally, the size of the gap ranges from 2mm to 5mm.

[0024] This design avoids the air conditioning damper and the fresh air damper from rubbing against each other, getting stuck, or even jamming due to too small a gap, ensuring smooth opening and closing of the dampers. It also prevents airflow leakage caused by too large a gap, thus ensuring the independence and stability of the airflow path and accurately meeting the user's needs for temperature regulation and air exchange. At the same time, it also prevents the appearance from being affected by too large a gap.

[0025] Optionally, the first direction is a vertical direction, and the fresh air outlet is located below the air conditioner outlet;

[0026] The first drive unit is located above the air conditioning damper, and the second drive unit is located below the fresh air damper.

[0027] This design optimizes the space utilization of the indoor unit for vertical air conditioners, making the layout of each structure more compact and reasonable, and saving space.

[0028] On the other hand, placing the air conditioner vent above the fresh air vent ensures that the fresh air entering the room through the fresh air vent can refresh the indoor air, and the air conditioner vent located above also allows the temperature-regulating airflow to have a larger diffusion range, which in turn helps to improve temperature regulation efficiency.

[0029] Optionally, the fresh air assembly further includes a fresh air fan, which is disposed in the fresh air cavity. The fresh air fan is used to draw outdoor air into the fresh air cavity through the fresh air inlet to form a fresh air flow. The fresh air fan is also used to blow the fresh air flow into the room.

[0030] The air conditioning cavity and the fresh air cavity are connected to each other so that at least a portion of the temperature-regulating airflow and at least a portion of the fresh airflow mix with each other, and the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow are blown into the room through at least one of the air conditioning outlet and the fresh air outlet.

[0031] With this setup, when simultaneous temperature regulation and air exchange are required, the air conditioning fan and the fresh air fan operate, causing at least a portion of the temperature-regulating airflow and at least a portion of the fresh airflow to mix. Since the airflow is blown into the room through different air outlets, the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow will have different relative flow ratios. Furthermore, after mixing, the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow in this application can be blown into the room through either the air conditioning outlet or the fresh air outlet, or simultaneously through both. Therefore, the relative flow ratio of the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow can be changed. This allows for the provision of temperature-regulating airflow and fresh airflow with corresponding flow ratios according to the needs for indoor temperature regulation and air exchange in different scenarios, thereby meeting the user's needs for room temperature and air exchange in different scenarios, ensuring both temperature comfort and air quality.

[0032] In addition, since the air conditioning cavity and the fresh air cavity are connected, at least part of the temperature-regulating airflow and at least part of the fresh airflow can be mixed. In this way, the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow can be mixed not only indoors, but also inside the casing, thereby improving the mixing efficiency of the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow, which in turn helps to improve the efficiency of temperature regulation and air exchange.

[0033] Optionally, when both the air conditioning outlet and the fresh air outlet are open, the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow are both blown into the room through the air conditioning outlet and the fresh air outlet;

[0034] When one of the air conditioning outlet and the fresh air outlet is closed and the other is open, both the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow are blown into the room through the open air conditioning outlet or the fresh air outlet.

[0035] This configuration allows the indoor unit of the air conditioner to have three different air mixing modes. Specifically, in the first air mixing mode, when both the air conditioner outlet and the fresh air outlet are open, the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow can be blown into the room through these outlets. Therefore, on the one hand, this improves the efficiency of the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow being blown into the room, thereby improving the efficiency of temperature regulation and air exchange. Thus, this air mixing mode is suitable for scenarios with high requirements for temperature regulation and air exchange. On the other hand, it only allows a portion of the temperature-regulating airflow and a portion of the fresh airflow to mix, resulting in poor mixing effect of the fresh airflow. Therefore, this air mixing mode is also suitable for scenarios with low requirements for fresh air mixing.

[0036] The second air mixing mode operates when the air conditioner vents are closed and the fresh air vents are open. Since the fresh air can be directly blown into the room through the fresh air vents, while the temperature-regulating air also needs to be blown into the room through the fresh air vents, the efficiency of the fresh air is higher than that of the temperature-regulating air. Therefore, this mode is suitable for scenarios with low temperature control requirements and high air exchange needs. Furthermore, it allows all the temperature-regulating air and all the fresh air to mix, resulting in good temperature mixing of the fresh air. Therefore, this air mixing mode is also suitable for scenarios with high requirements for fresh air temperature mixing.

[0037] The third type of air mixing mode operates when the fresh air outlet is closed and the air conditioning outlet is open. Since the temperature-regulating airflow can be directly blown into the room through the air conditioning outlet, and the temperature-regulating airflow also needs to be blown into the room through the air conditioning outlet, on the one hand, the efficiency of the temperature-regulating airflow in terms of being blown into the room is higher than that of the fresh airflow. Therefore, this mode is suitable for scenarios with high temperature regulation requirements and low air exchange requirements. On the other hand, it also allows all the temperature-regulating airflow and all the fresh airflow to mix together, resulting in a good temperature mixing effect for the fresh airflow. Therefore, this air mixing mode is also suitable for scenarios with high requirements for fresh air temperature mixing.

[0038] In summary, the three mixed-air modes described above can further enrich the functional modes of the air conditioner indoor unit, thereby helping to better meet users' needs for room temperature and air exchange in different scenarios.

[0039] Optionally, the air conditioning cavity includes:

[0040] An air conditioning installation cavity, wherein the air conditioning fan and the heat exchanger are both disposed in the air conditioning installation cavity;

[0041] A temperature regulating channel is connected between the air conditioner installation cavity and the air conditioner outlet, so that the temperature regulating airflow can flow out from the air conditioner installation cavity and be blown into the room from the air conditioner outlet via the temperature regulating channel;

[0042] The fresh air cavity includes:

[0043] The fresh air installation cavity is provided with the fresh air fan, and the fresh air installation cavity is isolated from the air conditioning installation cavity.

[0044] A fresh air duct connects the fresh air installation cavity and the fresh air outlet, allowing the fresh air to flow out of the fresh air installation cavity and be blown into the room through the fresh air outlet via the fresh air duct.

[0045] An isolation element is provided between the fresh air duct and the temperature control duct, and the isolation element has a notch, through which the fresh air duct and the temperature control duct are connected.

[0046] This configuration, isolating the air conditioning installation cavity from the fresh air installation cavity, ensures the independent operation of the fresh air fan, air conditioning fan, and heat exchanger, avoiding mutual interference. This helps improve the stability and lifespan of the fresh air fan, air conditioning fan, and heat exchanger. The temperature control channel is connected to the fresh air channel, ensuring the connectivity between the air conditioning cavity and the fresh air cavity, thereby guaranteeing the on-demand mixing of the temperature-controlled airflow and the fresh airflow.

[0047] Optionally, the housing is provided with a communication port, and the temperature control channel and the fresh air channel are both connected to the communication port;

[0048] The isolating element is disposed at the connecting opening to divide the connecting opening into the air conditioning outlet and the fresh air outlet. The notch is disposed on the side of the isolating element close to the air conditioning outlet and the fresh air outlet, and the notch is connected to the air conditioning outlet and the fresh air outlet.

[0049] This design, through the gap, not only ensures the connection between the fresh air channel and the temperature control channel, but also, because the gap is also connected to the air conditioning outlet and the fresh air outlet, at least part of the temperature control airflow and at least part of the fresh airflow mix at the gap and can be directly blown into the room through the air conditioning outlet and / or the fresh air outlet without being obstructed by other components. This helps to improve the efficiency of the mixed temperature control airflow and fresh airflow being blown into the room.

[0050] Optionally, the fresh air damper is rotatably disposed at the fresh air outlet;

[0051] The fresh air damper has a perforated surface and a closed surface. When the perforated surface rotates with the fresh air damper to a position that blocks the fresh air outlet, the fresh air outlet is opened. When the closed surface rotates with the fresh air damper to a position that blocks the fresh air outlet, the fresh air outlet is closed.

[0052] This design, which controls the opening and closing of the fresh air outlet by rotating between the perforated and closed surfaces, not only facilitates the rapid opening and closing of the fresh air outlet, but also allows the perforated surface structure to initially guide the airflow, enabling the airflow to enter the room more evenly. This avoids the discomfort caused by direct airflow and improves the comfort of the fresh air experience.

[0053] Optionally, the air conditioning outlets are spaced at least two apart; and / or,

[0054] The fresh air outlets are spaced at least two apart.

[0055] This setup allows for several advantages. First, the multiple spaced air outlets expand the airflow coverage, enabling the airflow to spread more evenly to every corner of the room. This effectively avoids problems such as large local temperature differences or uneven air exchange, thus improving the overall comfort of the house.

[0056] Secondly, multiple air outlets can deliver air in different directions and angles, allowing users to flexibly adjust the airflow according to their actual needs, which helps improve the user experience of the indoor air conditioning unit.

[0057] Furthermore, the design of multiple air outlets can reduce the air pressure of a single air outlet, thereby reducing noise caused by excessive wind speed and creating a quiet indoor environment.

[0058] In addition, when some air outlets are temporarily closed due to cleaning, malfunction, or other reasons, other air outlets can still maintain basic temperature control or ventilation functions, ensuring the reliability of the indoor unit's operation. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

Unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0083] As described in the background section of this application, with social development and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, air conditioning has become widely used. Traditional air conditioners mainly regulate indoor temperature by cooling or heating to meet people's needs for temperature comfort. However, during operation, indoor air is often in a relatively closed state, which can easily lead to a decline in indoor air quality and affect human health and comfort.

[0084] To improve indoor air quality, a new type of air conditioner with a fresh air function has been introduced, which can introduce fresh air and exchange indoor and outdoor air. However, in this type of air conditioner, the fresh air outlet not only affects the aesthetics of the overall appearance, but also impacts the user experience because the air volume cannot be controlled as needed.

[0085] In view of the above-mentioned problems, this application provides an indoor air conditioning unit to solve the problem that the fresh air outlet affects the aesthetics of the overall appearance of the air conditioner and the user experience in the related technology.

[0086] The technical solution of this application will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings:

[0087] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the indoor unit of the air conditioner includes a casing 1, and an air conditioning cavity 11 is formed inside the casing 1. Figure 4 (as shown) and fresh air cavity 16 ( Figure 5 As shown), the housing 1 is provided with an air conditioning inlet 12 and an air conditioning outlet 13 communicating with the air conditioning cavity 11. The housing 1 is also provided with a fresh air inlet 14 and a fresh air outlet 15 communicating with the fresh air cavity 16. The fresh air inlet 14 is connected to the outside, and the fresh air outlet 15, the air conditioning inlet 12, and the air conditioning outlet 13 are all connected to the indoor environment. The fresh air outlet 15 and the air conditioning outlet 13 are aligned along a first direction (e.g., ...). Figure 3 Arranged sequentially in the Z direction.

[0088] With this configuration, on the one hand, different air conditioning cavities 11 and fresh air cavities 16 are formed inside the casing 1. In this way, different functional components can be separated through different cavities, which can avoid mutual interference between different functional components and help ensure that different functional components operate normally.

[0089] On the other hand, the placement of air conditioning inlets and outlets creates an indoor air circulation path, facilitating temperature regulation and maintaining a comfortable room temperature. Similarly, the placement of fresh air inlets and outlets creates a path for introducing fresh outdoor air, facilitating the replacement of indoor air and improving air quality.

[0090] In some optional embodiments, the indoor unit of the air conditioner also includes an air conditioner fan, which is disposed in the air conditioner cavity 11 and is used to draw indoor air into the air conditioner cavity 11 through the air conditioner inlet.

[0091] With this configuration, the air conditioner fan can make the indoor air enter the air conditioner cavity 11 faster and the flow rate more stable, which is conducive to providing indoor air to the air conditioner cavity 11 stably and continuously, and to accelerating the rhythm of indoor air circulation.

[0092] In some optional embodiments, the indoor unit of the air conditioner also includes a heat exchanger disposed inside the air conditioner cavity 11, and the heat exchanger is used to exchange heat with the indoor air inside the air conditioner cavity to form a temperature-regulating airflow. The air conditioner fan is also used to blow the temperature-regulating airflow into the room.

[0093] This configuration allows the heat exchanger to directly exchange heat with the air, rapidly changing the air temperature. This enables the indoor unit to quickly begin adjusting the indoor air temperature upon receiving the user's temperature setting command. Consequently, indoor temperature can be adjusted quickly, reducing user waiting time, and this efficient heat exchange process also helps to meet temperature control needs while avoiding excessive energy consumption.

[0094] In addition, by using air conditioning fans, factors such as humidity can be controlled, which can reduce large temperature differences between different areas of the room.

[0095] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the indoor unit of the air conditioner also includes an air conditioning damper 2, which is movably disposed at the air conditioning outlet 13 for opening or closing the air conditioning outlet 13.

[0096] This design facilitates the opening and closing of the air conditioning vent 13 via the air conditioning damper 2.

[0097] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 10 As shown, the indoor unit of the air conditioner also includes a first drive unit 4, which is located on the side of the air conditioner damper 2 away from the fresh air outlet 15, and is used to drive the air conditioner damper 2 to open or close the air conditioner outlet 13.

[0098] With this configuration, the air conditioning damper 2 is driven by the first drive unit 4, which facilitates the opening or closing of the air conditioning outlet 13.

[0099] In some alternative embodiments, the indoor unit of the air conditioner also includes a fresh air component, such as... Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the fresh air assembly includes a fresh air damper 3, which is movably disposed at the fresh air outlet 15 for opening or closing the fresh air outlet 15.

[0100] This configuration facilitates the opening and closing of the fresh air outlet 15 via the fresh air damper 3.

[0101] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the fresh air assembly also includes a second drive unit 5, which is located on the side of the fresh air damper 3 away from the air conditioning outlet 13, and is used to drive the fresh air damper 3 to open or close the fresh air outlet 15.

[0102] With this configuration, the fresh air damper 3 is driven by the second drive unit 5, which facilitates the opening or closing of the fresh air outlet 15.

[0103] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the indoor unit of the air conditioner includes a casing 1, and an air conditioning cavity 11 is formed inside the casing 1. Figure 4 (as shown) and fresh air cavity 16 ( Figure 5 As shown), the housing 1 is provided with an air conditioning inlet 12 and an air conditioning outlet 13 communicating with the air conditioning cavity 11. The housing 1 is also provided with a fresh air inlet 14 and a fresh air outlet 15 communicating with the fresh air cavity 16. The fresh air inlet 14 is connected to the outside, and the fresh air outlet 15, the air conditioning inlet 12, and the air conditioning outlet 13 are all connected to the indoor environment. The fresh air outlet 15 and the air conditioning outlet 13 are aligned along a first direction (e.g., ...). Figure 3 Arranged sequentially in the Z direction.

[0104] The indoor unit of the air conditioner also includes an air conditioner fan (not shown in the figure), a heat exchanger, an air conditioner damper 2, and a first drive unit 4. The air conditioner fan is located within the air conditioner cavity 11 and is used to draw indoor air into the air conditioner cavity 11 through the air conditioner inlet. The heat exchanger is located within the air conditioner cavity 11 and is used to exchange heat with the indoor air within the air conditioner cavity to form a temperature-regulating airflow. The air conditioner fan is also used to blow the temperature-regulating airflow into the room. Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the air conditioning damper 2 is movably mounted at the air conditioning outlet 13 to open or close the air conditioning outlet 13, as follows: Figure 10 As shown, the first drive unit 4 is located on the side of the air conditioning damper 2 away from the fresh air outlet 15, and is used to drive the air conditioning damper 2 to open or close the air conditioning outlet 13.

[0105] Air conditioner indoor units also include fresh air components, such as Figure 6 , Figure 8 , Figure 10 as well as Figure 11As shown, the fresh air assembly includes a fresh air damper 3 and a second drive unit 5. The fresh air damper 3 is movably disposed at the fresh air outlet 15 for opening or closing the fresh air outlet 15. The second drive unit 5 is located on the side of the fresh air damper 3 away from the air conditioning outlet 13 and is used to drive the fresh air damper 3 to open or close the fresh air outlet 15.

[0106] In related technologies, the fresh air outlet of the indoor unit of an air conditioner is usually not equipped with a structure to open or close the fresh air outlet, that is, the fresh air outlet is always open. This not only affects the overall aesthetics of the indoor unit, but also affects the user experience because the air volume cannot be controlled as needed.

[0107] In this application, since a fresh air damper 3 is movably provided at the fresh air outlet 15, and since the second drive unit 5 is used to drive the fresh air damper 3 to open or close the fresh air outlet 15, on the one hand, when the fresh air damper 3 closes the fresh air outlet 15, the fresh air damper 3 can cover the fresh air outlet 15, making the appearance of the air conditioner indoor unit more complete, thereby improving the overall aesthetics and effectively solving the problem of the fresh air outlet 15 affecting the overall aesthetics in related technologies.

[0108] On the other hand, by driving the fresh air damper 3 through the second drive unit 5, the size of the fresh air outlet 15 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the air volume of the fresh air outlet 15. Thus, users can control the air volume as needed by driving the fresh air damper 3 through the second drive unit 5, thereby improving the user experience and effectively solving the problem of the fresh air outlet affecting the user experience in related technologies.

[0109] In addition, since the fresh air outlet 15 and the air conditioning outlet 13 are arranged sequentially along the first direction, and since the first drive unit 4 for driving the air conditioning damper 2 is located on the side of the air conditioning damper 2 away from the fresh air outlet 15, and the second drive unit 5 is located on the side of the fresh air damper 3 away from the air conditioning outlet 13, in the first direction, the first drive unit 4 and the second drive unit 5 are not only respectively located on both sides of the fresh air outlet 15 and the air conditioning outlet 13, but also respectively located on both sides of the fresh air damper 3 and the air conditioning damper 2.

[0110] The drive units distributed on both sides not only avoid the problems of center of gravity shift and mechanical interference that may be caused by the centralized arrangement of drive units, but also make the movement of the damper smoother, reduce wear and extend service life. They also allow the fresh air damper 3 and the air conditioning damper 2, as well as the fresh air outlet 15 and the air conditioning outlet 13, to be closer together. This facilitates the compact arrangement of the fresh air damper 3 and the air conditioning damper 2, as well as the fresh air outlet 15 and the air conditioning outlet 13, which in turn helps to achieve the miniaturization of the air conditioning indoor unit. At the same time, it also helps to make the appearance of the air conditioning indoor unit more integrated and further improves its aesthetics.

[0111] In this embodiment, the first drive unit 4 and the second drive unit 5 may include any one of an electric cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder, and a hydraulic cylinder. The configuration of the first drive unit 4 and the second drive unit 5 is flexible and can be configured according to actual needs. This embodiment does not impose any specific limitations on this.

[0112] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the air conditioning vent 13 and the fresh air vent 15 are along the first direction (e.g., Figure 3 The Z-direction in the middle is arranged sequentially adjacent to each other, and as shown in the figure. Figure 6 As shown, the air conditioning damper 2 and the fresh air damper 3 are arranged adjacent to each other along the first direction.

[0113] In the first direction, there is a gap between the air conditioning damper 2 and the adjacent fresh air damper 3.

[0114] With this arrangement, the air conditioning damper 2 and the fresh air damper 3 are arranged adjacent to each other along the first direction. This eliminates the need for decorative parts or partitions between the air conditioning damper 2 and the fresh air damper 3, thereby making the appearance of the indoor unit of the air conditioner more integrated and further enhancing its aesthetic appeal.

[0115] On the other hand, the gap between the air conditioning damper 2 and the fresh air damper 3 can effectively prevent the air conditioning damper 2 and the fresh air damper 3 from interfering with each other or colliding during the operation, which can ensure the smooth opening and closing of the damper, thereby reducing the risk of mechanical failure and extending the service life of the damper.

[0116] Furthermore, in some optional embodiments, the size of the above-mentioned gap ranges from 2mm to 5mm.

[0117] This design avoids the air conditioning damper 2 and the fresh air damper 3 from rubbing against each other, getting stuck, or even jamming due to too small a gap, thus ensuring smooth opening and closing of the dampers. It also prevents air leakage caused by too large a gap, thereby ensuring the independence and stability of the airflow path and accurately meeting the user's needs for temperature regulation and air exchange. At the same time, it also prevents the appearance from being affected by too large a gap.

[0118] In this embodiment of the application, the size of the gap can be any value within the range of 2mm, 5mm, or 2mm-5mm. The size of the gap is set flexibly and can be set according to actual needs. This embodiment of the application does not impose any specific limitations on this.

[0119] In some optional embodiments, the first direction is vertical, with the fresh air outlet 15 located below the air conditioning outlet 13, the first drive unit 4 located above the air conditioning damper 2, and the second drive unit 5 located below the fresh air damper 3.

[0120] This design optimizes the space utilization of the indoor unit for vertical air conditioners, making the layout of each structure more compact and reasonable, and saving space.

[0121] On the other hand, by placing the air conditioner outlet 13 above the fresh air outlet 15, it is possible not only to ensure that the fresh air entering the room through the fresh air outlet 15 can refresh the indoor air, but also that the air conditioner outlet 13 located above can allow the temperature-regulating airflow to have a larger diffusion range, thereby improving the temperature regulation efficiency.

[0122] In some alternative embodiments, the first direction can also be a horizontal direction or an upward tilting direction. The setting of the first direction is flexible and can be set according to actual needs. This application does not impose specific limitations on this aspect.

[0123] Furthermore, in some optional embodiments, the fresh air assembly further includes a fresh air fan (not shown in the figure), which is disposed in the fresh air cavity 16. The fresh air fan is used to draw outdoor air into the fresh air cavity 16 through the fresh air inlet 14 to form a fresh air flow. The fresh air fan is also used to blow the fresh air flow into the room.

[0124] The air conditioning cavity 11 and the fresh air cavity 16 are connected to each other so that at least part of the temperature-regulating airflow and at least part of the fresh airflow mix together, and the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow are blown into the room through at least one of the air conditioning outlet 13 and the fresh air outlet 15.

[0125] With this setup, when simultaneous temperature regulation and air exchange are required, the air conditioning and fresh air components operate, resulting in at least a portion of the temperature-regulating airflow and at least a portion of the fresh airflow mixing. Since the airflow is blown into the room through different air outlets, the temperature-regulating airflow and fresh airflow will have different relative flow ratios. Furthermore, after mixing, the temperature-regulating airflow and fresh airflow in this application can be blown into the room through either the air conditioning outlet 13 or the fresh air outlet 15, or simultaneously through both. Therefore, the relative flow ratio of the temperature-regulating airflow and fresh airflow can be changed. This allows for the provision of temperature-regulating airflow and fresh airflow with corresponding flow ratios according to the needs for indoor temperature regulation and air exchange in different scenarios, thereby meeting the user's needs for room temperature and air exchange in different scenarios, ensuring both temperature comfort and air quality.

[0126] In addition, since the air conditioning cavity 11 and the fresh air cavity 16 are connected, at least part of the temperature-regulating airflow and at least part of the fresh airflow can be mixed. In this way, the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow can be mixed not only indoors, but also inside the casing 1, thereby improving the mixing efficiency of the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow, which in turn helps to improve the efficiency of temperature regulation and air exchange.

[0127] Furthermore, in some optional embodiments, when both the air conditioning outlet 13 and the fresh air outlet 15 are open, the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow are both blown into the room through the air conditioning outlet 13 and the fresh air outlet 15.

[0128] When one of the air conditioning outlet 13 and the fresh air outlet 15 is closed and the other is open, both the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow are blown into the room through the open air conditioning outlet 13 or the fresh air outlet 15.

[0129] This configuration allows the indoor unit of the air conditioner to have three different air mixing modes. Specifically, in the first air mixing mode, when both the air conditioner outlet 13 and the fresh air outlet 15 are open, the temperature-regulating airflow and the fresh airflow can be blown into the room through the air conditioner outlet 13 and the fresh air outlet 15. Therefore, on the one hand, it is beneficial to improve the efficiency of temperature-regulating airflow and fresh airflow being blown into the room, thereby improving the efficiency of temperature regulation and air exchange. Thus, this air mixing mode is suitable for scenarios with high requirements for temperature regulation and air exchange. On the other hand, it can only mix part of the temperature-regulating airflow and part of the fresh airflow, and the mixing effect of the fresh airflow is poor. Therefore, this air mixing mode is also suitable for scenarios with low requirements for fresh air mixing.

[0130] The second air mixing mode, when the air conditioner outlet 13 is closed and the fresh air outlet 15 is open, allows the fresh air to be directly blown into the room through the fresh air outlet 15, while the temperature-regulating air also needs to be blown into the room through the fresh air outlet 15. Therefore, on the one hand, the efficiency of the fresh air is higher than that of the temperature-regulating air in terms of the efficiency of being blown into the room. Thus, this mode is suitable for scenarios with low temperature regulation requirements and high air exchange requirements. On the other hand, it allows all the temperature-regulating air and all the fresh air to mix together, resulting in good temperature mixing effect for the fresh air. Therefore, this air mixing mode is also suitable for scenarios with high requirements for fresh air temperature mixing.

[0131] The third air mixing mode, when the fresh air outlet 15 is closed and the air conditioning outlet 13 is open, allows the temperature-regulating airflow to be directly blown into the room through the air conditioning outlet 13. Since the temperature-regulating airflow also needs to be blown into the room through the air conditioning outlet 13, on the one hand, the efficiency of the temperature-regulating airflow in being blown into the room is higher than that of the fresh airflow. Therefore, this mode is suitable for scenarios with high temperature regulation requirements and low air exchange requirements. On the other hand, it also allows all the temperature-regulating airflow and all the fresh airflow to mix together, resulting in a good temperature mixing effect for the fresh airflow. Therefore, this air mixing mode is also suitable for scenarios with high requirements for fresh air temperature mixing.

[0132] In summary, the three mixed-air modes described above can further enrich the functional modes of the air conditioner indoor unit, which is conducive to further meeting users' needs for room temperature and air exchange in different scenarios.

[0133] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 4 and Figure 12 As shown, the air conditioner cavity 11 includes an air conditioner mounting cavity 111 and a temperature regulating channel 112. The air conditioner fan and heat exchanger are both located in the air conditioner mounting cavity 111. The temperature regulating channel 112 connects the air conditioner mounting cavity 111 and the air conditioner outlet 13 so that the temperature-regulated airflow can flow out from the air conditioner mounting cavity 111 and be blown into the room from the air conditioner outlet 13 via the temperature regulating channel 112.

[0134] like Figure 5 and Figure 12 As shown, the fresh air cavity 16 includes a fresh air installation cavity 161 and a fresh air duct 162. A fresh air fan is installed in the fresh air installation cavity 161. The fresh air installation cavity 161 is isolated from the air conditioning installation cavity 111. The fresh air duct 162 connects the fresh air installation cavity 161 and the fresh air outlet 15 so that fresh air can flow out from the fresh air installation cavity 161 and be blown into the room through the fresh air outlet 15 via the fresh air duct 162.

[0135] An isolation element 17 is provided between the fresh air duct 162 and the temperature control duct 112. The isolation element 17 has a notch 171, and the fresh air duct 162 and the temperature control duct 112 are connected through the notch 171.

[0136] This configuration, which isolates the air conditioning installation cavity 111 from the fresh air installation cavity 161, ensures the independent operation of the fresh air fan, air conditioning fan, and heat exchanger, avoiding mutual interference. This, in turn, helps improve the stability and lifespan of the fresh air fan, air conditioning fan, and heat exchanger. The temperature control channel 112 is connected to the fresh air channel 162, ensuring the connectivity between the air conditioning cavity 11 and the fresh air cavity 16, thereby guaranteeing the on-demand mixing of the temperature-controlled airflow and the fresh airflow.

[0137] Furthermore, in some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 12 As shown, the housing 1 is provided with a connecting port 18, and the temperature control channel 112 and the fresh air channel 162 are both connected to the connecting port 18. The isolation component 17 is provided at the connecting port 18 to divide the connecting port 18 into an air conditioning outlet 13 and a fresh air outlet 15.

[0138] The notch 171 is located on the side of the isolation member 17 near the air conditioning outlet 13 and the fresh air outlet 15, and the notch 171 is connected to the air conditioning outlet 13 and the fresh air outlet 15.

[0139] With this configuration, the gap 171 not only ensures the connection between the fresh air duct 162 and the temperature control duct 112, but also connects the gap 171 to the air conditioning outlet 13 and the fresh air outlet 15. Therefore, at least part of the temperature control airflow and at least part of the fresh airflow mix at the gap 171 and can be directly blown into the room through the air conditioning outlet 13 and / or the fresh air outlet 15 without being obstructed by other components. This helps to improve the efficiency of the mixed temperature control airflow and fresh airflow being blown into the room.

[0140] In some optional embodiments, the fresh air damper 3 is rotatably disposed at the fresh air outlet 15, such as... Figure 11 As shown, the fresh air damper 3 has a perforated surface 31 and a closed surface 32. Among them, as... Figure 8 As shown, when the perforated surface 31 rotates with the fresh air damper 3 to the position of blocking the fresh air outlet 15, the fresh air outlet 15 is opened; as Figure 6 As shown, when the closed surface 32 rotates with the fresh air damper 3 to the position of blocking the fresh air outlet 15, the fresh air outlet 15 is closed.

[0141] With this configuration, the opening and closing of the fresh air outlet 15 can be controlled by rotating the perforated surface 31 and the closed surface 32. This not only facilitates the rapid opening and closing of the fresh air outlet 15, but also allows the structural design of the perforated surface 31 to initially guide the airflow, enabling the airflow to enter the room more evenly. This avoids the discomfort caused by direct airflow and improves the comfort of the fresh air experience.

[0142] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the air conditioning vents 13 are spaced at least two.

[0143] With this setup, firstly, the multiple spaced air conditioning outlets 13 can expand the airflow coverage area, allowing the temperature-regulating airflow to spread more evenly to every corner of the room, thereby effectively avoiding the problem of large local temperature differences and improving the overall comfort of the house.

[0144] Secondly, the multiple air outlets 13 can deliver air in different directions and angles, allowing users to flexibly adjust the airflow according to their actual needs, which helps to improve the user experience of the indoor unit.

[0145] Furthermore, the design of multiple air conditioning outlets 13 can reduce the air pressure of a single air conditioning outlet 13, thereby reducing noise caused by excessive wind speed and creating a quiet indoor environment.

[0146] In addition, when some air conditioning outlets 13 are temporarily closed due to cleaning, malfunction or other reasons, other air conditioning outlets 13 can still maintain basic temperature regulation function to ensure the reliability of the operation of the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0147] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, there are at least two fresh air outlets 15 spaced apart.

[0148] With this setup, firstly, the multiple spaced fresh air outlets 15 can expand the airflow coverage area, allowing the fresh airflow to be more evenly diffused to every corner of the room, thereby effectively avoiding the problem of uneven air exchange and improving the comfort of the whole house.

[0149] Secondly, the multiple fresh air outlets 15 can deliver air in different directions and angles, allowing users to flexibly adjust the airflow direction according to their actual needs, which helps to improve the user experience of the indoor air conditioning unit.

[0150] Furthermore, the design of multiple fresh air outlets 15 can reduce the air pressure of a single fresh air outlet 15, thereby reducing noise caused by excessive wind speed and creating a quiet indoor environment.

[0151] In addition, when some fresh air outlets 15 are temporarily closed due to cleaning, malfunction or other reasons, other fresh air outlets 15 can still maintain basic ventilation function to ensure the reliability of the operation of the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0152] In some alternative embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, there are at least two air conditioning outlets 13 spaced apart, and at least two fresh air outlets 15 are also spaced apart.

[0153] This setup allows for several advantages. First, the multiple spaced air outlets expand the airflow coverage, enabling the airflow to spread more evenly to every corner of the room. This effectively avoids problems such as large local temperature differences or uneven air exchange, thus improving the overall comfort of the house.

[0154] Secondly, multiple air outlets can deliver air in different directions and angles, allowing users to flexibly adjust the airflow according to their actual needs, which helps improve the user experience of the indoor air conditioning unit.

[0155] Furthermore, the design of multiple air outlets can reduce the air pressure of a single air outlet, thereby reducing noise caused by excessive wind speed and creating a quiet indoor environment.

[0156] In addition, when some air outlets are temporarily closed due to cleaning, malfunction, or other reasons, other air outlets can still maintain basic temperature control or ventilation functions, ensuring the reliability of the indoor unit's operation.

[0157] In this embodiment, there may be two, three or more air conditioning outlets 13 and fresh air outlets 15. The number of air conditioning outlets 13 and fresh air outlets 15 is flexible and can be set according to actual needs. This embodiment does not impose any specific limitations on this.

[0158] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
