[0020] The air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes a housing 20 and an ambient light assembly 10.

[0022] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the top wall of the housing 20 is provided with a first mounting hole 201. The ambient light assembly 10 includes a mounting cover 1 and a projection assembly 2. The mounting cover 1 is placed over the first mounting hole 201. The top of the mounting cover 1 is provided with a second mounting hole 121. The projection assembly 2 is placed inside the second mounting hole 121. The projection assembly 2 is used to project light and shadow upwards, so that a projection effect is formed above the air conditioner 100. Users can project relevant content to watch according to their personal preferences.

[0023] The mounting cover 1 provides a mounting position for the projection component 2, thereby separating the projection component 2 from the housing 20 and preventing the projection component 2 from occupying the mounting space of other components inside the housing 20.

[0024] like Figure 4 As shown, the air conditioner 100 is placed indoors, and the projection component 2 can project onto the ceiling. The projection component 2 has a built-in starry sky ambient light, which transforms the ceiling above the air conditioner 100 into a dynamic light display surface, realizing starry sky, aurora and other light and shadow effects, enhancing the product's decorativeness and scene adaptability, meeting the demand for soft ambient lighting in night or low light environments, especially suitable for bedrooms, living rooms and other scenes, and improving the aesthetics and comfort of the environment.

[0025] Meanwhile, the wiring harness of the projection component 2 can be electrically connected to other electrical components of the air conditioner 100 through the first mounting hole 201, directly integrating the projection component 2 using the existing electrical components of the air conditioner 100. Users can use the same control unit to control the air blowing module and projection module of the air conditioner 100, simplifying user operation. Furthermore, the lighting mode (such as brightness, color, and dynamic effects) can be adjusted through the air conditioner controller or smart devices, increasing the fun of human-computer interaction.

[0026] In addition, the projection component 2 is located on the top of the mounting cover 1, which can prevent other parts of the air conditioner 100 from blocking the projection component 2 and avoid affecting the projection effect of the projection component 2 projecting upward.

[0027] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner 100 has an ambient light assembly 10 installed on the top wall of the housing 20. A mounting cover 1 is placed over the first mounting hole 201, and a projection assembly 2 is installed inside the second mounting hole 121 at the top of the mounting cover 1. This placement of the projection assembly 2 on top of the mounting cover 1 prevents other parts of the air conditioner 100 from obstructing the projection assembly 2, thus avoiding affecting the upward projection effect. The projection assembly 2 projects light and shadow upwards, transforming the ceiling above into a dynamic lighting display surface, achieving starry sky, aurora, and other light and shadow effects, enhancing the product's decorative appeal and scene adaptability, and meeting the demand for soft ambient lighting in nighttime or low-light environments. Simultaneously, the wiring harness of the projection assembly 2 can be electrically connected to other electrical components of the air conditioner 100 through the first mounting hole 201, directly integrating the projection assembly 2 using the existing electrical components of the air conditioner 100. Users can control both the air blowing module and the projection module of the air conditioner 100 using the same control unit, simplifying user operation.

[0028] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the maximum distance between the outer surface of the top wall of the housing 20 and the top of the ambient light assembly 10 is h, and satisfies: 5mm ≤ h ≤ 70mm. It can be understood that the maximum distance between the outer surface of the top wall of the housing 20 and the top of the ambient light assembly 10 can be 5mm, 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm, 30mm, 35mm, 40mm, 45mm, 50mm, 55mm, 60mm, 65mm, or 70mm. A maximum distance of not less than 5mm provides sufficient installation space for the projection assembly 2, ensuring that the projection assembly 2 can be smoothly installed on the top of the housing 20. A maximum distance of not more than 70mm avoids the projection assembly 2 being too close to the ceiling, ensuring a larger size of the light and shadow projected by the projection assembly 2 and increasing the projection effect of the projection assembly 2.

[0029] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the mounting cover 1 includes a side plate 11 and a top plate 12. The side plate 11 is an annular piece, with its lower end passing through a first mounting hole 201 and its upper end open. The top plate 12 is located at the open end of the side plate 11, and its outer peripheral wall abuts against the inner peripheral wall of the side plate 11. A second mounting hole 121 is located at the top of the top plate 12. The side plate 11 connects the top plate 12 and the housing 20 in the vertical direction (e.g., ...). Figure 1 The top plate 12 is spaced apart in the vertical direction as shown, and provides an installation position for the projection component 2, making the structure of the ambient light component 10 relatively simple and reliable.

[0030] Furthermore, the top plate 12 is located at the opening of the side plate 11 and the outer peripheral wall of the top plate 12 abuts against the inner peripheral wall of the side plate 11. When the air conditioner 100 is subjected to an external impact, the side plate 11 can protect the top plate 12, thereby protecting the projection assembly 2 installed on the top plate 12.

[0031] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the projection assembly 2 includes a first projection device 21 and a protective cover 22. The first projection device 21 is disposed in the second mounting hole 121, and the protective cover 22 covers the first projection device 21 and is connected to the mounting cover 1. The first projection device 21 can project upwards, and the protective cover 22 can protect the first projection device 21 and prevent it from being damaged by external forces.

[0032] In some embodiments of this utility model, the protective cover 22 is a light-transmitting component, and the first projection device 21 can project light and shadow upward through the protective cover 22 to achieve imaging of the first projection device 21.

[0033] The protective cover 22 can be a colorless transparent part or a colored transparent part. The type of protective cover 22 can be selected according to the projection requirements of the first projection device 21 to meet different projection requirements.

[0034] In some embodiments of this utility model, the protective cover 22 is movably disposed on the mounting cover 1 to expose the first projection device 21 or to cover the first projection device 21. When the first projection device 21 is working, the protective cover 22 exposes the first projection device 21; when the first projection device 21 stops working, the protective cover 22 covers the first projection device 21.

[0035] In some embodiments, the ambient light assembly 10 further includes a driving component that drives the protective cover 22 to move. When the user issues a projection command, the driving component drives the protective cover 22 to move to expose the first projection device 21; when the user issues a stop projection command, the driving component drives the protective cover 22 to move to cover the first projection device 21. The driving component does not need to be manually turned on or off, thus achieving automated operation and improving the user experience.

[0036] In some embodiments of this utility model, the top plate 12 is a light-transmitting component to prevent the light and shadow projected by the first projection device 21 onto the ceiling from being reflected back onto the top plate 12, thus avoiding affecting the imaging effect of the first projection device 21.

[0037] Meanwhile, the ambient lighting assembly 10 may also include a second projection device, which is connected to the side panel 11. The second projection device can project light and shadow upwards through the top panel 12, and can project images on the ceiling alone or together with the first projection device 21 to meet different imaging needs.

[0038] The top plate 12 can be a colorless transparent part or a colored transparent part. The type of top plate 12 can be selected according to the projection requirements of the second projection device to meet different projection requirements.

[0039] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the top plate 12 is an upwardly convex spherical panel, which makes the top plate 12 highly rigid and its deformation under load is much smaller than that of a flat plate of the same thickness and material. The spherical panel can more effectively distribute local loads across the entire top plate 12, avoiding stress concentration.

[0040] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in the direction from bottom to top, the side plate 11 is inclined away from the first mounting hole 201, which reduces the size of the first mounting hole 201 while ensuring the size of the top plate 12, thereby reducing the influence of the first mounting hole 201 on the strength of the top wall of the housing 20.

[0041] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the ambient light assembly 10 is located at the front end of the top wall of the housing 20. It can be understood that the air conditioner 100 is generally placed close to the wall in the room. By placing the ambient light assembly 10 at the front end of the top wall of the housing 20, the wall can be avoided from affecting the projection effect of the first projection device 21, thereby increasing the usable projection area of ​​the first projection device 21 on the ceiling.

[0042] Other configurations and operations of the air conditioner 100 according to the embodiments of the present invention are known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.
