[0083] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0084] The following disclosure provides numerous different embodiments or examples for implementing various structures of the present invention. To simplify the disclosure, specific examples of components and arrangements are described below. These are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Furthermore, reference numerals and / or letters may be repeated in different examples. Such repetition is for simplification and clarity and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or arrangements discussed. In addition, examples of various specific processes and materials are provided in this invention; however, those skilled in the art will recognize the applicability of other processes and / or the use of other materials.

[0085] Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, a window air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

[0086] refer to Figures 1-5 The window air conditioner 100 includes an outdoor unit 1 and an indoor unit 2. The outdoor unit 1 is adapted to be located on the outdoor side and includes an electrical control component 11. The indoor unit 2 is adapted to be located on the indoor side and includes a ventilation and heat exchange component 21. The ventilation and heat exchange component 21 includes a heat exchanger 211 and a fan 212. At least a portion of the heat exchanger 211 is located on the side of the fan 212 closest to the outdoor unit 1.

[0087] refer to Figures 1-5 The outdoor unit 1 and the indoor unit 2 are arranged along the first direction F1. The connection points of the outdoor unit 1 and the indoor unit 2 are respectively provided with a first channel 41 and a second channel 42 at both ends in the second direction F2. The second direction F2 and the first direction F1 are both horizontal and perpendicular to each other. The refrigerant connection pipe 6 connecting the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 1 runs through the first channel 41. At least part of the wires 5 connecting the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 1 run through the second channel 42.

[0088] The wire 5 connecting the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 1 refers to one or more wires extending from the indoor unit 2 to the outdoor unit 1 and connecting the two. For example, the first wire 51, the second wire 52, and the third wire 53 mentioned later are all wires 5 connecting the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 1.

[0089] The form of the first channel 41 and the second channel 42 is not limited. For example, it can be a simple groove structure, a closed channel with a cover plate, or a closed pipe structure.

[0090] In related technologies, window air conditioners consist of an outdoor unit and an indoor unit. The electrical control components are located in the outdoor unit, while the indoor and outdoor units require electrical wiring for power transmission and signal exchange. Furthermore, refrigerant piping connects the two units to achieve refrigerant circulation. However, the layout of the electrical wiring and refrigerant piping between the indoor and outdoor units lacks proper planning. This chaotic wiring and piping makes operation difficult during production. Moreover, the close proximity of the refrigerant pipes to the electrical wiring allows heat from the refrigerant to directly affect the wiring itself, causing thermal damage and rapid aging. As the wiring ages, its electrical performance deteriorates significantly, reducing the reliability of the electrical wiring and posing a potential risk to the stable operation of the window air conditioner.

[0091] In the technical solution of this application, the outdoor unit 1 and the indoor unit 2 are arranged along the first direction F1, and a first channel 41 and a second channel 42 are respectively provided at the two ends of the connection position in the second direction F2. This layout makes the routing of the refrigerant connection pipe 6 and the wire 5 more orderly and organized, reduces the possibility of the refrigerant connection pipe 6 and the wire 5 tangling or crossing, facilitates operation during production, improves the utilization rate of the internal space of the window air conditioner 100, and makes the overall structure of the window air conditioner 100 more compact and reasonable. Moreover, in the technical solution of this application, by routing the refrigerant connection pipe 6 through the first channel 41 and at least some of the wires 5 through the second channel 42, the refrigerant connection pipe 6 and at least some of the wires 5 (i.e., the wires 5 routed through the second channel 42) are physically separated, reducing the risk of heat damage to these wires 5 from the heat dissipated by the refrigerant pipe, thereby extending the service life of these wires 5 and improving the reliability of the electrical wiring.

[0092] Furthermore, in the case where at least part of the heat exchanger 211 is located on the side of the fan 212 near the outdoor unit 1, the pipes are routed through the first channel 41 and the wiring is routed through the second channel 42. Both the pipes and wiring can avoid the heat exchanger 211 and will not interfere with it, thus further optimizing the overall layout.

[0093] In some embodiments, when at least a portion of the heat exchanger 211 is located on the side of the fan 212 near the outdoor unit 1, an air inlet area can be provided on the side of the indoor unit 2 near the outdoor unit 1, and an air outlet area can be provided on the side of the indoor unit 2 away from the outdoor unit 1. This makes it less likely for the airflow entering the air inlet area to cross with the airflow blowing out of the air outlet area, thereby helping to improve the problem of short-circuiting the return air.

[0094] refer to Figures 1-5 and combined Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the refrigerant connection pipe 6 and the motor 2121 of the fan 212 are both located on the side of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2 near the first channel 41. The wire 5 connecting the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 1 includes a first wire 51, which connects the motor 2121 and the electronic control component 11. The end of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2 near the first channel 41 is the first end 21a, and the end of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2 near the second channel 42 is the second end 21b. After the first wire 51 extends from the motor 2121, it first winds from the first end 21a to the second end 21b, and then extends through the second channel 42 to the electronic control component 11.

[0095] In this design, the refrigerant connection pipe 6 extends a certain length in the second direction F2 when connected to the heat exchanger 211, thus occupying space. Similarly, the motor 2121 has a certain thickness in the second direction F2, also occupying space there. By placing both the refrigerant connection pipe 6 and the motor 2121 of the fan 212 on the side of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2 near the first channel 41, they occupy the same side of the space. This reduces the space wastage caused by placing the refrigerant connection pipe 6 and the motor 2121 on opposite sides of the second direction F2, and helps to reduce the overall size of the window air conditioner 100 along the second direction F2. This layout allows for the rational arrangement of the components without increasing the overall size of the air conditioner, achieving efficient space utilization.

[0096] Furthermore, the first wire 51 connects the motor 2121 and the electrical control component 11. Its wiring method is to extend from the motor 2121, first from the first end 21a of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 to the second end 21b, and then extend to the electrical control component 11 through the second channel 42, instead of directly extending to the electrical control component 11 through the nearby first channel 41. This reduces the contact caused by the refrigerant connection pipe 6 and the first wire 51 extending through the first channel 41 together, and reduces the risk of heat damage to the first wire 51 caused by the heat dissipated by the refrigerant connection pipe 6 when transporting hot refrigerant. This extends the service life of the first wire 51 and improves the reliability of electrical wiring.

[0097] refer to Figures 1-5 and combined Figure 6 and Figure 7In some embodiments, the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 includes a duct component 213, within which a duct 213a is formed. The impeller 2122 of the fan 212 is disposed within the duct 213a. A heat exchanger 211 is disposed on the side of the duct component 213 near the outdoor unit portion 1 and located at the inlet of the duct 213a. Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first wire 51 is routed from the first end 21a to the second end 21b via the outer wall of the air duct 213.

[0098] In the above technical solution, the heat exchanger 211 is located on the side of the air duct component 213 near the outdoor unit part 1 and at the inlet of the air duct 213a, allowing the air to directly and fully exchange heat with the heat exchanger 211 before entering the air duct 213a. Simultaneously, the first wire 51 passes through the outer wall of the air duct component 213 from the first end 21a to the second end 21b, avoiding the first wire 51 passing through the inlet of the air duct 213a, thus preventing airflow obstruction and reducing airflow obstruction caused by the first wire 51. Furthermore, the first wire 51 passing through the outer wall of the air duct component 213 from the first end 21a to the second end 21b prevents it from passing through the inlet of the air duct 213a, reducing the impact of the heat exchanger 211 on the first wire 51. Specifically, during the operation of the air conditioner, the surface temperature of the heat exchanger 211 changes significantly with the cooling or heating conditions, and condensation may accumulate on the surface of the heat exchanger 211. If the first wire 51 is located near the heat exchanger 211 or passes through the inlet of the air duct 213a, it may be affected by temperature changes and condensation, leading to a decrease in the insulation performance of the first wire 51, accelerated aging, or even electrical faults such as short circuits. By having the first wire 51 bypass the outer wall of the air duct component 213, it is beneficial to reduce the impact of these adverse factors on the electrical performance of the first wire 51 and improve the reliability of the electrical wiring.

[0099] refer to Figures 2-4 In some embodiments, the first wire 51 is routed from the first end 21a to the second end 21b via the top wall 2131 of the duct component 213. This keeps the first wire 51 away from the airflow area. If the first wire 51 is located within the duct 213a or near its inlet or outlet, where airflow is intense, it may be subject to air impact and disturbance, causing it to sway, wear, or even affect its electrical performance. The routing along the top wall 2131 prevents the first wire 51 from swaying, reducing the risk of malfunctions caused by airflow. Furthermore, the top wall 2131 of the duct component 213 typically provides ample operating space, allowing installers greater convenience in wiring, securing, and connecting the first wire 51.

[0100] refer to Figures 2-4In some embodiments, the outer wall of the duct component 213 is provided with a first cable straightening structure 214, through which the first wire 51 extends. The first cable straightening structure 214 includes at least one of a first wire buckle 2141 and a first wire groove 2142. Thus, the first cable straightening structure 214 can organize and fix the first wire 51. Through the first cable straightening structure 214, the first wire 51 can extend along a predetermined path and be firmly fixed to the outer wall of the duct component 213, preventing the first wire 51 from loosening or shifting due to vibration during the operation of the window air conditioner 100. In addition, when installing the first wire 51, the installer can use the first cable straightening structure 214 to quickly determine the direction and fixed position of the first wire 51, shortening the installation time. During inspection and maintenance, maintenance personnel can easily find the first wire 51 without spending a lot of time untangling the tangled wire bundle 5a, improving the efficiency and accuracy of maintenance work.

[0101] refer to Figures 2-4 In some embodiments, the first wire 51 is wound from the first end 21a to the second end 21b via the top wall 2131 of the air duct component 213, and the outer wall of the air duct component 213 is provided with a first wire-straightening structure 214, through which the first wire 51 extends. The first wire-straightening structure 214 includes at least one of a first wire clip 2141 and a first wire groove 2142. Thus, the first wire 51 is kept away from the airflow area and is firmly fixed to the top wall 2131 of the air duct component 213, facilitating wiring by installers and inspection and maintenance by maintenance personnel.

[0102] refer to Figures 8-10 In some embodiments, the indoor unit 2 includes a display component 22, which is located on the side of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 away from the outdoor unit 1, in conjunction with... Figures 2-4 The indoor unit 2 includes a functional component 23 that is wired and connected to the display component 22. The wire 5 connecting the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 1 includes a second wire 52, which connects the display component 22 and the electronic control component 11.

[0103] For example, the housing of the indoor unit 2 may include a frame 24 and a front panel 29. The frame 24 is in the form of a frame and covers the ventilation and heat exchange component 21. The display component 22 is disposed on the front panel 29, and the front panel 29 is detachably mounted on the front side of the frame 24 (i.e. the side away from the outdoor unit 1).

[0104] For example, the frame 24 may include several of the following: front frame, back frame, left frame, right frame, top frame, and bottom frame. For instance, the frame 24 may include a left frame and a right frame, and also include at least one of the following: front frame, back frame, top frame, and bottom frame, to connect the left frame and the right frame.

[0105] In the indoor unit 2 of the window air conditioner 100, the functional component 23 is directly connected to the electrical control component 11. This results in an increased number of wires 5 connecting the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 1. These wires 5 are intertwined within the limited space of the indoor unit, occupying a significant amount of space and creating a chaotic wiring layout. In the above technical solution, the functional component 23 is wired to the display component 22, and a second wire 52 connects the display component 22 to the electrical control component 11. This reduces the number of wires 5 connecting the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 1, thereby optimizing the wiring layout.

[0106] During installation, it is only necessary to correctly wire the functional component 23 and the display component 22, and then connect the display component 22 and the electrical control component 11 through the second wire 52. This shortens the installation time, reduces installation failures caused by incorrect wire connection, and improves installation quality and efficiency. When the window air conditioner 100 malfunctions and needs maintenance, the fewer wires 5 allow maintenance personnel to quickly troubleshoot the problem and find the fault point, improving maintenance efficiency and reducing maintenance costs.

[0107] Furthermore, an excessive number of wires 5 can lead to electromagnetic coupling and interference, especially in environments with dense electronic components like the window air conditioner 100, where electromagnetic interference may affect the accuracy of signal transmission. The wiring connection between the functional component 23 and the display component 22 reduces the number of wires 5 connecting the indoor and outdoor units, thereby reducing electromagnetic interference between the wires 5. A reduced number of wires 5 also means fewer contact points and intersections, thus lowering the risk of short circuits due to insulation damage or other reasons.

[0108] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 9 In some embodiments, the second wire 52 is routed via the second channel 42. This physically separates the second wire 52 from the refrigerant connection pipe 6, making the second wire 52 less susceptible to interference from the refrigerant connection pipe 6 in the first channel 41. This reduces contact caused by the refrigerant connection pipe 6 and the second wire 52 sharing the same extension through the first channel 41, and reduces the risk of heat damage to the second wire 52 from the heat dissipated by the refrigerant connection pipe 6 when transporting hot refrigerant. This extends the service life of the second wire 52 and improves the reliability of the electrical wiring.

[0109] refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the second wire 52 extends from the display component 22 to the side of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2 near the second channel 42, and then extends through the second channel 42 to the electronic control component 11.

[0110] In the above technical solution, the second wire 52 extends from the display component 22 and first goes to the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 on the side of the second channel 42 in the second direction F2, and then extends through the second channel 42 to the electronic control component 11. This reduces the long-distance detour and winding of the second wire 52 in the internal space of the indoor unit 2, reduces the space occupied by the second wire 52, and the wiring distance is shorter, thus reducing the required length of the second wire 52 and lowering the wiring cost of the window air conditioner 100.

[0111] refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the indoor unit 2 includes a frame 24, a ventilation and heat exchange component 21 is disposed inside the frame 24, and the end of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 near the second channel 42 in the second direction F2 is the second end 21b. The frame 24 includes a second frame plate 242 disposed outside the second end 21b. The second wire 52 includes a first pair of wires 521 and a second pair of wires 522 that are connected together. The first pair of wires 521 extends from the display component 22 and extends to the outside of the second frame plate 242. The second pair of wires 522 extends from the electronic control component 11, extends through the second channel 42 to the outer wall of the second end 21b, and then passes through to the outside of the second frame plate 242 to connect with the first pair of wires 521.

[0112] In the above technical solution, the second wire 52 includes a first pair of wires 521 and a second pair of wires 522 that are connected in a butt joint. The first pair of wires 521 and the second pair of wires 522 are connected to the outside of the second frame plate 242, which reduces the internal space occupied by the indoor unit 2.

[0113] Furthermore, for installers, the wiring connection of the first pair of wires 521 and the second pair of wires 522 can be made on the outside of the second frame plate 242, thus avoiding wiring operations within the limited space between the ventilation and heat exchange components 21 and the frame 24. For example, a removable side plate 25 is provided on the outside of the second frame plate 242. Removing the side plate 25 exposes the second frame plate 242, allowing installers to see the connection positions of the first pair of wires 521 and the second pair of wires 522. This eliminates the need to fumble and operate within the confined space of the frame 24, reducing errors and rework during installation, shortening installation time, and improving efficiency. Of course, when a fault occurs requiring repair, maintenance personnel can quickly locate the connection point of the second wire 52 on the outside of the second frame plate 242. Through simple inspection and testing, it can be determined whether the wire connection is normal and whether there are problems such as looseness, short circuits, or open circuits, without needing to disassemble the frame 24 of the indoor unit 2 for complex internal troubleshooting.

[0114] In the embodiments of this application, the wiring connection method of the first pair of wires 521 and the second pair of wires 522 is not limited. For example, the wiring connection method can be wire crimping, welding, terminal plugging, etc.

[0115] refer to Figures 2-4 In some embodiments, the functional components 23 are multiple and are distributed on both sides of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2, referring to... Figures 8-10 The display component 22 extends output lines 221 from both ends in the second direction F2, and the display component 22 is connected to the corresponding functional component 23 via the output lines 221. That is, the output line 221 on the left side of the display component 22 is connected to the functional component 23 on the left side of the indoor unit 2, and the output line 221 on the right side of the display component 22 is connected to the functional component 23 on the right side of the indoor unit 2.

[0116] In the above technical solution, multiple functional components 23 are placed on both sides of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2. This layout makes full use of the internal space of the window air conditioner 100, reduces the possibility of space congestion caused by the centralized placement of functional components 23, and makes the overall structure of the window air conditioner 100 more compact and reasonable. This is conducive to reducing the volume of the window air conditioner 100 and improving space utilization.

[0117] The display component 22 extends output lines 221 from both ends of the second direction F2 and connects to the corresponding functional components 23. Compared with the method of centrally connecting the functional components 23 and the display component 22 on one side, this reduces the crossing and interference of the wires 5 and shortens the wiring length connecting the display component 22 and the functional components 23, thereby reducing the wiring cost of the window air conditioner 100.

[0118] In the embodiments of this application, the functional components 23 are distributed on both sides of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2. They can be arranged according to their functional classification. For example, the functional components 23 include stepper motors 23a and sensors 23b, which are distributed on both sides of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2. This facilitates centralized wiring and maintenance of functional components of the same type on one side. It is worth noting that the number of stepper motors 23a on one side is not limited; there can be one or more. Similarly, the number of sensors 23b on the other side is not limited; there can be one or more.

[0119] refer to Figures 8-10 In some embodiments, the display component 22 extends a plurality of output lines 221 from both ends in the second direction F2, as shown in the reference. Figures 2-4At least two of the functional components 23 connected in the output line 221 at one end are stepper motors 23a, and at least two of the functional components 23 connected in the output line 221 at the other end are sensors 23b.

[0120] Therefore, the output line 221 for connecting the stepper motor 23a is concentrated at one end of the display component 22, and the output line 221 for connecting the sensor 23b is concentrated at the other end. This achieves the partitioning of the functional components 23 at the physical level, reduces the wiring chaos caused by mixed lines, and enables the quick identification and location of different functional lines during the installation, commissioning and maintenance of the window air conditioner 100.

[0121] For example, when the window air conditioner 100 malfunctions, such as when the air dampers at the inlet and outlet of the window air conditioner 100 cannot be adjusted normally, since the air dampers are controlled by the stepper motor 23a and the connection wires of the stepper motor 23a are concentrated at one end of the display component 22, the wiring at this end and the stepper motor 23a itself can be checked first to narrow down the scope of troubleshooting.

[0122] refer to Figure 9 and Figure 10 In some embodiments, the second wire 52 extends from the central position of the display component 22 in the second direction F2. The term "central position" is interpreted broadly, for example, dividing the display component 22 into three equal parts along the second direction F2, with the middle part being the central position.

[0123] In the above technical solution, the second wire 52 extends from the center of the display component 22 in the second direction F2, without occupying the space of the output lines 221 at both ends of the display component 22 in the second direction F2. This allows the display component 22 to connect to more functional components 23. The display component 22 is then connected to the electronic control component 11 through the second wire 52, reducing the number of wires 5 connecting the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 1, thereby optimizing the wiring layout.

[0124] refer to Figures 4-5 , Figures 11-12 In some embodiments, the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 is provided with a second side functional component 232 on the side near the second channel 42 in the second direction F2. The display component 22 extends a second side output line 2212 from one end near the second channel 42 in the second direction F2. The end of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 near the second channel 42 in the second direction F2 is the second end 21b. The second side output line 2212 extends to the outside of the second end 21b and is wired and connected to the second side functional component 232.

[0125] In the above technical solution, the second-side functional component 232 is located on the side of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 near the second channel 42. Simultaneously, the second-side output line 2212 extends from the display component 22 to the outside of the second end 21b of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 and connects to the second-side functional component 232. Therefore, the second-side functional component 232 and the second-side output line 2212 are relatively close, which facilitates the wiring connection between them. Specifically, during the production process, installers can quickly locate the second-side functional component 232 and its corresponding second-side output line 2212, thus achieving rapid connection and reducing the time spent searching for the second-side functional component 232 and its corresponding second-side output line 2212 within the complex space inside the window air conditioner 100, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0126] refer to Figures 4-5 , Figures 11-12 In some embodiments, the indoor unit 2 includes a frame 24, and a ventilation and heat exchange component 21 is disposed inside the frame 24. The frame 24 includes a second frame plate 242 disposed on the outside of the second end 21b. A second side output line 2212 extends from the display component 22 and extends to the outside of the second frame plate 242. The end of the second frame plate 242 away from the outdoor unit 1 has a first notch 2421. A second side connecting line 2321 extending from the second side functional component 232 extends through the first notch 2421 to the outside of the second frame plate 242 and connects with the second side output line 2212.

[0127] In the above technical solution, the second-side output line 2212 extends to the outside of the second frame plate 242, and the second-side connecting line 2321 also extends to the outside of the second frame plate 242 through the first notch 2421 and connects with the second-side output line 2212. This eliminates the need for wiring operations within the limited space between the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 and the frame 24. For example, a detachable side plate 25 is provided on the outside of the second frame plate 242. Removing the side plate 25 exposes the second frame plate 242, allowing installers to see the connection position of the second-side connecting line 2321 and the second-side output line 2212. This eliminates the need to fumble and operate within the confined space of the frame 24, reducing errors and rework during installation, shortening installation time, and improving installation efficiency. Of course, when a fault occurs and maintenance is required, maintenance personnel can quickly locate the connection point of the second-side connecting line 2321 and the second-side output line 2212 on the outside of the second frame plate 242. By simply checking and testing, it is possible to determine whether the wire 5 connection is normal and whether there are problems such as looseness, short circuit or open circuit, without having to disassemble the frame 24 of the indoor unit 2 to go deep inside for complicated troubleshooting.

[0128] In addition, by concentrating the wiring connections on the outside of the second frame plate 242, excessive space is reduced inside the window air conditioner 100, allowing for a more rational arrangement of core components such as ventilation and heat exchange components 21 and fan 212 inside the frame 24. This improves the utilization rate of the internal space of the window air conditioner 100, thereby facilitating the miniaturization and compact design of the window air conditioner 100.

[0129] refer to Figures 4-5 In some embodiments, the second-side functional component 232 includes a stepper motor 23a. Therefore, the wiring connection of the stepper motor 23a is located outside the second end 21b, facilitating troubleshooting of related faults in the stepper motor 23a.

[0130] For example, the second side functional component 232 is multiple and includes two stepper motors 23a. The two stepper motors 23a control the angle of the air inlet damper and the air outlet guide plate, respectively. When the window air conditioner 100 malfunctions, for example, the air inlet damper of the window air conditioner 100 cannot be adjusted normally, since the damper is controlled by the stepper motor 23a and the connection wire of the stepper motor 23a is concentrated at one end of the display component 22, the wiring on the outside of the second end 21b and the stepper motor 23a itself can be checked first, thus narrowing the scope of troubleshooting.

[0131] refer to Figures 2-5 In some embodiments, the motor 2121 of the fan 212 is located on the side of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2, near the first channel 41. Combined with the refrigerant connection pipe 6 also being located on the side of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2, near the first channel 41, the motor 2121 has a certain thickness in the second direction F2, thus occupying a certain space. By placing both the refrigerant connection pipe 6 and the motor 2121 of the fan 212 on the side of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2, near the first channel 41, the space wasted by separately placing the refrigerant connection pipe 6 and the motor 2121 on both sides of the second direction F2 is reduced. This layout allows for the rational arrangement of the various components without increasing the overall size of the air conditioner, achieving efficient space utilization.

[0132] refer to Figures 2-3 In some embodiments, the motor 2121 of the fan 212 is located on the side of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2 near the first channel 41, and the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2 near the first channel 41 is provided with a first side functional component 231, see reference. Figure 9 and Figure 10The display component 22 extends a first side output line 2211 from one end near the first channel 41 in the second direction F2. The ventilation and heat exchange component 21 has a first end 21a at one end near the first channel 41 in the second direction F2. (Refer to...) Figures 13-14 The first-side output line 2211 extends to the outside of the first end 21a and is wired and connected to the first-side functional component 231.

[0133] In the above technical solution, the motor 2121 of the fan 212 is located on the side of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2, near the first channel 41. The motor 2121 has a certain thickness in the second direction F2, thus providing sufficient space for the window air conditioner 100 on one side of the first channel 41 in the second direction F2. Specifically, the motor 2121 lengthens the window air conditioner 100 in the second direction F2, while the space around the motor 2121 is unused. The first-side output line 2211 of the display component 22 extends to the outside of the first end 21a on that side and connects to the first-side functional component 231, making full use of the unused space on the side where the motor 2121 is located. This reduces the space occupied by wiring in other critical areas, making the overall structure of the window air conditioner 100 more compact and reducing unnecessary space waste. In addition, since there is sufficient space on the side where the motor 2121 is located, the first-side output line 2211 can extend smoothly to the outside of the first end 21a and connect with the first-side functional component 231. This reduces the detour and entanglement of the first-side output line 2211 inside the window air conditioner 100, reduces the probability of the first-side output line 2211 failing due to mutual interference, and improves the reliability of the line connection.

[0134] refer to Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 13 In some embodiments, the indoor unit 2 includes a frame 24, a ventilation and heat exchange component 21 is disposed inside the frame 24, the frame 24 includes a first frame plate 241 disposed outside the first end 21a, the frame 24 includes a second notch 2411, the second notch 2411 is located on the side of the motor 2121 away from the outdoor unit 1; the first side functional component 231 includes an internal wiring functional component 2311, the internal wiring functional component 2311 is disposed in the ventilation and heat exchange component 21, the internal wiring functional component 2311 extends out a first side internal wiring 23111, the first side internal wiring 23111 extends between the first end 21a and the first frame plate 241, the first side output line 2211 includes an internal output wire 22111, the internal output wire 22111 and the first side internal wiring 23111 are connected through the second notch 2411.

[0135] In the above technical solution, the internal wiring functional component 2311 is located on the ventilation and heat exchange component 21. The internal wiring functional component 2311 extends into a first-side internal wiring 23111. The first-side output line 2211 includes an internal output wire 22111. The internal output wire 22111 and the first-side internal wiring 23111 are connected via a second notch 2411. Combined with the motor 2121 being located on the side of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2 near the first channel 41, the first-side internal wiring 23111 can utilize the spare space around the motor 2121 for wiring, thereby facilitating the extension of the first-side internal wiring 23111 to the second notch 2411 side. The setting of the second notch 2411 allows the internal output wire 22111 to be easily connected to the first-side internal wiring 23111 without having to pass through the frame 24, reducing the length of the internal output wire 22111, improving the compactness and rationality of the wiring, and thus optimizing the overall space utilization of the indoor unit 2.

[0136] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, there are multiple internal wiring functional components 2311, including an ambient temperature sensor 2311a and a heat exchanger tube temperature sensor 2311b. The ambient temperature sensor 2311a can be located near the air inlet of the window air conditioner 100 to collect the air temperature at the air inlet, and the heat exchanger tube temperature sensor 2311b can be located on the inlet refrigerant pipe of the heat exchanger 211 to collect the refrigerant pipe temperature of the heat exchanger 211. There can be one or more ambient temperature sensors 2311a and heat exchanger tube temperature sensors 2311b.

[0137] In the above technical solution, by setting an ambient temperature sensor 2311a and a heat exchanger tube temperature sensor 2311b, the control system of the window air conditioner 100 can be provided with a basis for adjusting the operating mode and parameters. For example, when the air conditioner is cooling, if the air temperature at the air inlet is close to the set room temperature, the compressor power can be reduced to avoid energy waste caused by excessive cooling or heating. Furthermore, the heat exchanger tube temperature sensor 2311b can monitor the temperature of the refrigerant pipe. By collecting the temperature of the refrigerant pipe, the control system can understand the state of the refrigerant in a timely manner and optimize the cooling cycle. For example, during the cooling process, if the temperature of the refrigerant pipe is too low, it may cause frost formation, affecting cooling efficiency. The temperature information fed back by sensor 2311b allows the system to adjust in time to prevent frost formation and ensure the efficient and stable operation of the window air conditioner 100.

[0138] refer to Figures 14-16In some embodiments, the indoor unit 2 includes a frame 24, a ventilation and heat exchange component 21 is disposed inside the frame 24, the frame 24 includes a first frame plate 241 disposed on the outside of the first end 21a; the first side functional component 231 includes an external wiring functional component 2312 disposed in the frame 24, and the first side output line 2211 includes an external output wire 22112, which extends to the outside of the first frame plate 241 and is connected to the external wiring functional component 2312.

[0139] In the above technical solution, the external wiring functional component 2312 is located on the frame 24, and the external output wire 22112 extends to the outside of the first frame plate 241 and connects with the external wiring functional component 2312. This eliminates the need for wiring operations within the limited space between the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 and the frame 24. For example, a detachable side plate 25 is provided on the outside of the first frame plate 241. After the side plate 25 is removed, the first frame plate 241 can be exposed. Thus, the installer can see the connection position of the external output wire 22112 and the external wiring functional component 2312, eliminating the need to fumble and operate in the narrow internal space of the frame 24. This reduces errors and rework during installation, shortens installation time, and improves installation efficiency.

[0140] Furthermore, the external output wire 22112 extends to the outside of the first frame plate 241 and connects with the external wiring functional component 2312. When disassembly is required, the connection between the external wiring functional component 2312 and the external output wire 22112 can be disconnected from the outside of the first frame plate 241. The external wiring functional component 2312 is mounted on the frame 24, thus allowing the frame 24 and the external wiring functional component 2312 to be removed together, facilitating the maintenance of the internal components of the indoor unit 2. Alternatively, during installation, the external wiring functional component 2312 can be mounted on the frame 24 first, without any internal components of the indoor unit 2 occupying the space inside the frame 24, thus facilitating the installation and wiring of the external wiring functional component 2312. Then, the frame 24, along with the external wiring functional component 2312, can be mounted on the indoor unit 2, shortening the installation time and improving installation efficiency.

[0141] refer to Figures 14-16In some embodiments, there are multiple external wiring functional components 2312, including at least one of humidity sensor 2312a, particulate matter sensor 2312b, and communication module 2312c. For example, the external wiring functional component 2312 includes one humidity sensor 2312a, one particulate matter sensor 2312b, and one communication module 2312c. The humidity sensor 2312a and the particulate matter sensor 2312b extend out of the first side external wiring 23121, which is connected to the corresponding external output wire 22112 via the outside of the first frame plate 241. The communication module 2312c is located on the side of the humidity sensor 2312a and the particulate matter sensor 2312b away from the outdoor unit part 1. The communication module 2312c is located on the outside of the first frame plate 241 and is directly connected to the corresponding external output wire 22112.

[0142] In the above technical solution, by setting multiple external wiring functional components 2312, such as humidity sensor 2312a, particulate matter sensor 2312b and communication module 2312c, the window air conditioner 100 is equipped with multiple functions such as detecting ambient humidity, particulate matter concentration and realizing data communication, so as to meet the needs of adjusting the operating mode and parameters and information interaction based on the collected data.

[0143] Among them, the humidity sensor 2312a and the particulate matter sensor 2312b respectively extend out a first side external wiring 23121. The first side external wiring 23121 is connected to the corresponding external output wire 22112 through the outside of the first frame plate 241, which facilitates the connection, maintenance and repair of the first side external wiring 23121 and the external output wire 22112.

[0144] The communication module 2312c is located close to the display component 22, allowing for direct connection, which simplifies wiring, reduces costs, and saves space occupied by wiring.

[0145] refer to Figure 8 and Figure 16 In some embodiments, the indoor unit 2 includes a frame 24 and side panels 25. A ventilation and heat exchange component 21 is disposed within the frame 24. Two side panels 25 are respectively disposed on both sides of the frame 24 in the second direction F2. The second wire 52 and the wires connecting the display component 22 and the functional component 23 are hidden between the side panels 25 and the frame 24 and / or hidden within the frame 24. That is, the second wire 52 is hidden between the side panels 25 and the frame 24 and / or hidden within the frame 24; and the wires connecting the display component 22 and the functional component 23 are also hidden between the side panels 25 and the frame 24 and / or hidden within the frame 24.

[0146] In the above technical solution, the second wire 52 and the wire connecting the display component 22 and the functional component 23 are hidden between the side panel 25 and the frame 24 and / or hidden inside the frame 24. This ensures that users do not come into contact with these wires during daily use, cleaning the window air conditioner 100, or other operations. This not only ensures the stability of the connection between the second wire 52 and the wire 5 connecting the display component 22 and the functional component 23, but also protects personnel safety. Specifically, users may touch the side panel 25 while wiping the unit; the hidden wires prevent accidental contact with live wires, reducing the probability of electric shock and ensuring user safety.

[0147] In addition, the second wire 52 and the wire connecting the display component 22 and the functional component 23 are hidden between the side panel 25 and the frame 24 and / or hidden inside the frame 24, making the indoor unit 2 look neater and more beautiful, and enabling the window air conditioner 100 to better integrate into various home decoration styles and improve the overall quality of the home environment.

[0148] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the indoor unit 2 includes a high-voltage operating component 27, and the wire 5 connecting the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 1 includes a third wire 53, which connects the high-voltage operating component 27 and the electronic control component 11. The high-voltage operating component 27 is directly connected to the electronic control component 11, rather than indirectly connected through the display component 22. On the one hand, the high-voltage operating component 27 requires high voltage to operate, while the functional component 23 connected to the display component 22 is usually a low-voltage functional component. On the other hand, the third wire 53 requires higher electrical reliability, and the direct connection of the high-voltage operating component 27 to the electronic control component 11 through the third wire 53 helps to improve the reliability of the electrical wiring.

[0149] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the high-voltage working component 27 is located on the side of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2 near the second channel 42, and the third wire 53 extends from the high-voltage working component 27 and extends through the second channel 42 to the electrical control component 11.

[0150] In the above technical solution, the high-voltage working component 27 is located on the side of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 in the second direction F2, close to the second channel 42, so that the high-voltage working component 27 is closer to the second channel 42, and the third wire 53 extends smoothly through the second channel 42 to the electrical control component 11, reducing the routing length of the third wire 53, and also facilitating the maintenance and repair of the high-voltage working component 27 and the third wire 53.

[0151] The third wire 53 extends to the electrical control component 11 through the second channel 42, while the refrigerant connection pipe 6 runs through the first channel 41. Thus, the third wire 53 and the refrigerant connection pipe 6 are physically separated. The third wire 53 is less likely to be affected by the refrigerant connection pipe 6 in the first channel 41, reducing the contact caused by the refrigerant connection pipe 6 and the third wire 53 extending through the first channel 41 together. This reduces the risk of heat damage to the third wire 53 caused by the heat dissipated by the refrigerant connection pipe 6 when transporting hot refrigerant, thereby extending the service life of the third wire 53 and improving the reliability of the electrical wiring.

[0152] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the indoor unit 2 includes a frame 24, and a ventilation and heat exchange component 21 is disposed within the frame 24. The end of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 near the second channel 42 in the second direction F2 is a second end 21b. The frame 24 includes a second frame plate 242 disposed outside the second end 21b. (Refer to...) Figure 4 and Figure 5 The third wire 53 extends from the electronic control component 11, passes through the second channel 42, extends to the outer wall of the second end 21b, and is directly connected to the high-voltage working component 27. The type of the high-voltage working component 27 is not limited; for example, it can be a component used for air purification, such as a negative ion generator 27a.

[0153] Because the high-voltage working components 27 (such as the negative ion generator 27a) require higher voltage, the reliability and safety of the electrical wiring are given greater attention during the connection process of the third wire 53. The third wire 53 extends through the second channel 42 to the outer wall of the second end 21b. The outer wall of the second end 21b is provided with a second frame plate 242. Thus, the second channel 42 and the second frame plate 242 can provide a certain degree of physical protection for the third wire 53, preventing accidental damage to the insulation of the third wire 53 from impacts, and preventing personnel from accidentally touching the third wire 53.

[0154] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5In some embodiments, the wires 5 connecting the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 1 are multiple, with at least two bundled together as a wire harness 5a, which extends via the second channel 42. The wires 5 connecting the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 1 may include the first wire 51, the second wire 52, and the third wire 53, with at least two of these constituting the wire harness 5a. Therefore, by bundling multiple wires 5 into a wire harness 5a, the space occupied by the wires 5 inside the window air conditioner 100 can be reduced. For example, the originally dispersed first wire 51, second wire 52, and third wire 53 may extend in multiple directions, occupying a large space. However, by bundling them into a wire harness 5a, they can be neatly arranged along a specific path (such as the second channel 42), freeing up more space for the installation and layout of other components.

[0155] Furthermore, during installation, the wiring harness 5a can be routed as a whole, reducing the time required to install each wire 5 individually. Specifically, the installer passes the wiring harness 5a through the second channel 42 and connects it to the electrical control component 11 according to the design requirements, improving installation efficiency. For example, the wiring harness 5a is clearly labeled and numbered, facilitating identification and connection by the installer and reducing the risk of installation errors.

[0156] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the end of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 near the second channel 42 in the second direction F2 is a second end 21b. The outer wall of the second end 21b is provided with a second winding structure 215. The wire harness 5a extends through the second winding structure 215. The second winding structure 215 includes at least one of a second wire buckle 2151 and a second wire groove 2152.

[0157] For example, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, during the process of wire harness 5a extending from the second winding structure 215 to the second channel 42, it will pass through the side bend of the heat exchanger 211 (that is, the bend part of the heat exchanger 211 where the refrigerant pipe is located on the side). A protective component 28 can be installed between the side bend and the wire harness 5a to isolate the side bend and the wire harness 5a, thereby achieving physical separation between the refrigerant connection pipe 6 and the wire harness 5a, reducing the risk of heat damage to the wire harness 5a caused by the heat dissipated by the refrigerant pipe, and improving the reliability of electrical wiring.

[0158] In the above technical solution, a second winding structure 215 is provided at the second end 21b of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 to guide and constrain the wire harness 5a. If the wire harness 5a is not properly constrained, it may fall apart or become tangled, interfering with the normal operation of other components. The second winding structure 215 allows the wire harness 5a to extend along a predetermined path, orderly passing from the second end 21b of the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 through the second channel 42, making the overall layout of the wire harness 5a more orderly.

[0159] Furthermore, during the operation of the window air conditioner 100, the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 may vibrate. Without the protection of the second cable management structure 215, the wiring harness 5a may rub or collide with the ventilation and heat exchange component 21 or other components, causing damage to the outer sheath of the wiring harness 5a and potentially leading to safety hazards such as leakage or short circuits. The second cable management structure 215 can fix the wiring harness 5a in place, reducing contact and friction between the wiring harness 5a and surrounding components, thus protecting the wiring harness 5a.

[0160] Furthermore, during the installation of the window air conditioner 100, the second wiring structure 215 provides a clear fixing position for the wiring harness 5a, allowing installers to quickly and accurately fix the wiring harness 5a, thus improving installation efficiency.

[0161] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the electronic control component 11 outputs a power cord 111, which extends to one side of the indoor unit 2 via a second channel 42. Thus, the second channel 42 provides a relatively independent and safe wiring path for the power cord 111, offering some protection against external mechanical damage, chemical corrosion, electromagnetic interference, and other factors. The power cord 111 extends to one side of the indoor unit 2 and connects to the indoor power supply, thereby providing stable and reliable power for the operation of the window air conditioner 100.

[0162] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the indoor unit 2 includes a chassis 26. A groove 261 is formed on the side of the chassis 26 near the second channel 42 in the second direction F2. The groove 261 is recessed towards the first channel 41 and is used to accommodate the power cord 111. Thus, the groove 261 on the chassis 26 provides a fixed placement position for the power cord 111, preventing it from scattering or tangling inside the indoor unit, making the wiring of the window air conditioner 100 more organized and facilitating installation, debugging, and maintenance. Simultaneously, the groove 261 provides some protection for the power cord 111, reducing safety hazards such as short circuits and leakage caused by external damage, and improving the safety of the window air conditioner 100.

[0163] refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments, the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 1 are spaced apart to form a receiving space 3 between them. A connecting portion 4 is provided between the indoor unit 2 and the outdoor unit 1, and at least a portion of the first channel 41 and at least a portion of the second channel 42 are formed within the connecting portion 4. Thus, by providing the receiving space 3, a window sash or wall can extend into the receiving space 3, thereby facilitating the installation of the window air conditioner 100 and improving sealing. The opening direction of the receiving space 3 is not limited; for example, it can open upwards, with the window sash falling downwards into the receiving space 3; or it can open to the left, with the window sash entering the receiving space 3 from left to right; or it can open downwards, with the wall below the window located within the receiving space 3, etc.

[0164] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the indoor unit 2 has a first air inlet area 2a on the side facing the receiving space 3, and the first air inlet area 2a is located upstream of the heat exchanger 211. Thus, air intake can be achieved using the receiving space 3. When the air outlet area is located on the side of the indoor unit 2 away from the outdoor unit 1, the airflow entering the first air inlet area 2a is less likely to cross with the airflow blown out of the air outlet area, thereby helping to improve the problem of short-circuiting the return air.

[0165] Of course, this application is not limited to this. For example, the air intake area can also be set on other sides of the indoor unit 2, such as the bottom or top side. Alternatively, in addition to the first air intake area 2a, other air intake areas can be further set on other sides of the indoor unit 2, which will not be elaborated here.

[0166] The components of the outdoor unit 1 according to the embodiments of the present invention, such as the outdoor heat exchanger and the compressor, are known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.
