[0046] The air conditioner 100 of this utility model is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0047] According to the embodiment of the present utility model, the air conditioner 100, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the air conditioner 100 includes: a casing 1, an indoor heat exchanger 2, an indoor fan 3, and a storage cabinet 4. The casing 1 has an air inlet 11 and an air outlet 12. The casing 1 has a heat exchange duct 13 communicating with the air inlet 11 and the air outlet 12. The indoor heat exchanger 2 and the indoor fan 3 are both located inside the casing 1. The storage cabinet 4 is located at the top or bottom of the casing 1, and... Figure 5 As shown, the storage cabinet 4 defines a storage cavity 41 that is isolated from the heat exchange air duct 13.

[0048] It is worth noting that the type of air conditioner 100 according to the embodiments of this application is not limited, and can be a floor-standing air conditioner or a wall-mounted air conditioner, etc. In the following description of this application, a floor-standing air conditioner 100 will be used as an example for explanation.

[0049] Under the action of the indoor fan 3, the airflow flows into the heat exchange duct 13 of the casing 1 through the air inlet 11, and flows along the heat exchange duct 13 to exchange heat with the indoor heat exchanger 2. Finally, it flows out from the air outlet 12 to regulate the indoor temperature. The casing 1, the indoor heat exchanger 2 and the indoor fan 3 work together to achieve the air conditioning function.

[0050] The air conditioner 100 of this embodiment also includes a storage cabinet 4, which can be located at the top or bottom of the casing 1. The storage cabinet 4 defines a storage cavity 41, providing storage functionality. The storage cavity 41 within the storage cabinet 4 is isolated from the heat exchange duct 13. It is worth noting that this isolation includes gas flow isolation, which reduces interference between the storage cavity 41 and the heat exchange duct 13 and minimizes airflow loss from the heat exchange duct 13 into the storage cavity 41.

[0051] The air conditioner 100 of this utility model embodiment combines air conditioning and storage functions, making it highly functional. The air conditioner 100 is not merely a space-consuming air conditioning device, but can be integrated into home life, catering to other living room usage scenarios. For example, tea sets can be placed inside the storage cabinet 4 to achieve storage; alternatively, the storage cavity 41 can be decorated as a pet bed to achieve pet bed function.

[0052] A storage cabinet 4 is provided at the top or bottom of the casing 1, which can be selected according to actual needs. For example, the storage cabinet 4 can be placed at the bottom of the casing 1, supporting the casing 1 and storing frequently used items such as shoes at the bottom; alternatively, the storage cabinet 4 can be placed at the top of the casing 1, supporting the casing 1 without pressure, and storing infrequently used or fragile items such as tea sets inside the storage cabinet 4.

[0053] According to the embodiment of the present utility model, the air conditioner 100, by setting up the storage cabinet 4, can not only realize the normal air conditioning function, but also take into account the storage function, thereby improving the functionality of the air conditioner 100 and making high space utilization.

[0054] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5 As shown, the storage cabinet 4 is provided with a partition 42, which divides the storage cavity 41 into multiple chambers 411, with at least two of the multiple chambers 411 arranged vertically at intervals.

[0055] By installing partitions 42 inside the storage cabinet 4 to divide the storage cavity 41 into multiple chambers 411, the tidiness of the items stored in the storage cavity 41 can be improved, and the storage capacity of the storage cabinet 4 can also be increased. Since the air conditioner 100 is vertically arranged and occupies a large space in the vertical direction, the storage cabinet 4 correspondingly has a large vertical space. Alternating the chambers 411 vertically is beneficial to improving the storage capacity of the storage cabinet 4.

[0056] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5 As shown, the locker 4 includes a cabinet body 43 and a cabinet door 44. The storage cavity 41 is formed in the cabinet body 43 and is open at the front. The cabinet door 44 is movably connected to the locker 4 to open and close the storage cavity 41.

[0057] The locker 4 has a cabinet body 43 and a cabinet door 44. The cabinet door 44 can open and close the storage cavity 41, thereby improving the cleanliness of the storage cavity 41 and reducing the possibility of external pollutants entering the storage cavity 41. Optionally, the cabinet door 44 can rotate relative to the cabinet body 43, and the cabinet door 44 can rotate to open and close the storage cavity 41. The cabinet door 44 can also slide relative to the cabinet body 43, and the cabinet door 44 can slide to open and close the storage cavity 41.

[0058] It is understandable that the air conditioner 100 blows air towards the front, so the space in front of the air conditioner 100 is relatively large. The cabinet door 44 is placed in front of the storage cabinet 4 to open and close the storage cavity 41, which facilitates the use of the storage cabinet 4.

[0059] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, the air conditioner 100 also includes: a duct component 5, which defines a portion of the heat exchange duct 13 and includes a first duct component 51 and a second duct component 52. The first duct component 51 is located on the outlet side of the indoor fan 3, and the second duct component 52 connects the first duct component 51 and the air outlet 12, and the second duct component 52 is integrally formed on the housing 1.

[0060] The first air duct component 51 and the second air duct component 52 are both located near the air outlet 12. The second air duct component 52 connects the first air duct component 51 and the air outlet 12. The airflow first passes through the first air duct component 51 and then flows to the second air duct component 52, and finally flows out from the air outlet 12.

[0061] The second air duct component 52 is integrally formed with the housing 1, and the second air duct component 52 forms an air outlet 12 at the housing 1, which can improve the integrity of the heat exchange air duct 13, reduce the occurrence of airflow leakage from the structural gaps at the air outlet 12, and help improve the air output effect of the air conditioner 100.

[0062] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, after the airflow passes through the indoor heat exchanger 2 for heat exchange, it flows through the heat exchange duct 13 defined by the first air duct component 51, and then flows into the heat exchange duct 13 defined by the second air duct component 52.

[0063] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the storage cabinet 4 is located at the bottom of the housing 1. The outer surface of the housing 1 has an empty area 14. The empty area 14, the air inlet 11 and the air outlet 12 are located on different sides of the housing 1. The empty area 14 has a plurality of spaced mounting holes 141.

[0064] The storage cabinet 4 is located at the bottom of the casing 1. The storage cabinet 4 can support the casing 1, and the storage cavity 41 formed by the storage cabinet 4 is at a low height, which is convenient for storage and use.

[0065] The housing 1 also has an empty area 14, in which multiple spaced mounting holes 141 are formed. These mounting holes 141 allow for the installation of hooks, for example, for hanging clothes or other items. In this way, the air conditioner 100 not only has air conditioning and storage functions, but also includes a hanging function for mounting and arranging items, allowing it to integrate into home life and cater to other living room usage scenarios, thus offering strong functionality.

[0066] The vacant area 14, air inlet 11 and air outlet 12 are located on different sides of the casing 1. The hanging of items and other functions implemented by the vacant area 14 can avoid interfering with the normal air intake and exhaust of the air conditioner 100. Under the premise of ensuring the normal air intake and exhaust of the air conditioner 100, the functions of the air conditioner 100 are expanded.

[0067] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the air outlet 12 is formed on the front side of the housing 1, and one of the left and right sides of the housing 1 has an air inlet 11, while the other has an empty area 14.

[0068] Understandably, the air conditioner 100 is relatively large and is generally placed against a wall. Therefore, the rear of the casing 1 faces the wall, and the air outlet 12 is located on the front of the casing 1, directing airflow forward. One of the left and right sides of the casing 1 forms an air inlet 11, while the other forms an empty area 14. This allows for additional functions of the air conditioner 100 while providing normal airflow. The empty area 14 is located on the left or right side, providing ample operating space and ease of use.

[0069] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, an air outlet 12 is formed on the front side of the housing 1, an air inlet 11 is formed on the rear and left sides of the housing 1, and an empty area 14 is formed on the right side of the housing 1.

[0070] like Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the dotted lines with arrows represent the airflow path. The air conditioner 100 has air intake on the rear and left sides and air outlet on the front side, which can increase the air intake volume of the air conditioner 100 and help improve the air outlet effect.

[0071] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 7 As shown, the mounting hole 141 is a blind hole. The mounting hole 141 formed on the housing 1 is a blind hole. The mounting hole 141 does not penetrate the housing 1, but is separated from the interior of the housing 1. This can prevent the heat exchange airflow inside the housing 1 from escaping from the mounting hole 141, which is beneficial to improving the air outlet effect of the air conditioner 100.

[0072] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the air conditioner 100 also includes a bracket 6, which includes a plug-in part 61 and a hanging part 62. The plug-in part 61 is detachably plugged into the mounting hole 141, and the hanging part 62 is used to hang items.

[0073] The mounting bracket 6 is stably inserted into the mounting hole 141 via the insertion part 61. The hanging part 62 of the mounting bracket 6 is used to hang items, thus enabling the air conditioner 100 to function as a hanging device. Furthermore, the insertion part 61 is detachably inserted into the mounting hole 141. Multiple mounting holes 141 are spaced apart in the empty area 14, allowing the hanging position to be adjusted by changing the insertion position of the mounting bracket 6. Figure 4 As shown, there can be multiple racks 6. By setting multiple racks 6 of different heights, multiple items can be hung in sequence in the vertical direction, which is beneficial for the placement of items and can improve the storage capacity of the empty area 14.

[0074] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the air conditioner 100 also includes a shelf 7, which includes a placement plate 71. The placement plate 71 is horizontally arranged and used for placing items. The placement plate 71 is directly or indirectly inserted into the mounting hole 141. By setting the placement plate 71, the air conditioner 100 can realize the function of placing items.

[0075] In some embodiments of this utility model, the shelf 7 includes a placement plate 71 and a connecting rod 72. The placement plate 71 is horizontally arranged and used to place items. The connecting rod 72 is detachably inserted into a mounting hole 141, and the placement plate 71 and the connecting rod 72 are fixedly connected. The connecting rod 72 is detachably inserted into the mounting hole 141, and multiple mounting holes 141 are spaced apart in the empty area 14. The placement position can be adjusted by changing the insertion position of the shelf 7. Furthermore, as... Figure 4 As shown, there can be multiple shelves 7. By setting multiple shelves 7 of different heights, multiple items can be placed in sequence in the vertical direction, which is beneficial for the placement of items and can improve the storage capacity of the empty area 14.

[0076] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the air conditioner 100 includes a wall mount 6 and a shelf 7. Users can hang the tag on the wall mount 6 and place the key on the shelf 7, which is convenient and easy to access.

[0077] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the rear side of the housing 1 has an air inlet 11 and at least one hanging hole 15, with the air inlet 11 and the hanging hole 15 spaced apart. A wall-mounting structure 16 is provided above the hanging hole 15. Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the wall-mounted structure 16 defines a plurality of hanging grooves 161 spaced apart in the front-to-back direction. Each hanging groove 161 has its opening facing downward and is suitable for being hung with a hook provided on the wall.

[0078] The air conditioner 100 in some embodiments of this utility model can also be mounted on a wall, thereby increasing the placement range of the air conditioner 100. The air conditioner 100 has a hanging groove 161, which is connected to a hook on the wall, thereby realizing the wall-mounted placement of the air conditioner 100.

[0079] A hanging hole 15 is provided on the rear side of the housing 1, through which a hook can pass to engage with the hanging slot 161. An air inlet 11 is also provided on the rear side of the housing 1, spaced apart from the hanging hole 15. It is understood that the air inlet 11 is a through-hole allowing airflow; by spaced apart from the hanging hole 15, the impact on the structural strength of the location of the hanging hole 15 can be reduced, thus improving the stability of the air conditioner 100 during installation.

[0080] A wall-mounting structure 16 is provided on the upper side of the hanging hole 15, and the wall-mounting structure 16 defines a hanging groove 161 with the groove opening facing downward. When the air conditioner 100 is hung on the wall, it moves from top to bottom, so that the hook extends from bottom to top through the hanging hole 15 and engages with the hanging groove 161 to complete the hanging of the air conditioner 100.

[0081] Multiple mounting slots 161 are provided at intervals along the front-to-back direction. A hook can be inserted into one of the mounting slots 161 to engage with the wall-mounting structure 16. By providing multiple mounting slots 161, the distance between the rear side of the unit casing 1 and the wall can be adjusted, increasing the flexibility of the air conditioner 100's placement. For example, engaging the hook with the mounting slot 161 closest to the rear increases the distance between the rear side of the unit casing 1 and the wall, thereby increasing the air intake volume of the air inlet 11 at the rear of the unit casing 1 and improving the air outlet performance of the air conditioner 100.

[0082] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 8 As shown, the wall-mounted structure 16 includes an annular frame 162 and multiple hanging slot partitions 163. The annular frame 162 is connected to the housing 1, and the central axis of the annular frame 162 is vertically arranged. The multiple hanging slot partitions 163 are spaced apart on the inner side of the annular frame 162 in the front-back direction, and a hanging slot 161 is defined between two adjacent hanging slot partitions 163.

[0083] The annular frame 162 is vertically connected to the casing 1. Multiple vertically positioned hanging slot partitions 163 are provided inside the annular frame 162, and a downward-facing hanging slot 161 is formed between two adjacent hanging slot partitions 163. The wall-mounting structure 16 has a simple structure and strong structural stability, which is conducive to stable cooperation with the hook and improves the installation stability of the air conditioner 100.

[0084] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 8 As shown, the annular frame 162 has a square structure, and each hanging slot partition 163 connects to the opposite side walls of the annular frame 162. The wall-mounting structure 16 has a simple structure and strong structural stability, which can improve the stability of the fit between the hanging slot 161 and the hook.

[0085] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 As shown, there are multiple hanging holes 15, with at least two hanging holes 15 spaced vertically apart.

[0086] By setting multiple hanging holes 15 spaced vertically, the casing 1 is subjected to uniform force, the connection reliability is strong, and the installation stability of the air conditioner 100 can be improved.

[0087] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 As shown, there are two hanging holes 15, and the two hanging holes 15 are arranged vertically and horizontally, with at least one hanging hole 15 located above the center of gravity of the air conditioner 100.

[0088] The mounting hole 15 is located above the center of gravity of the air conditioner 100, allowing the air conditioner 100 to be stably mounted under the influence of gravity.

[0089] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, the housing 1 includes a front shell 1a and a rear shell 1b connected front to back. The front shell 1a includes a front panel 1a1 and two opposing first side panels 1a2. The rear shell 1b includes a back panel 1b1 and two opposing second side panels 1b2. The thickness of the rear shell 1b is greater than the thickness of the front shell 1a.

[0090] An air inlet 11 and a hanging hole 15 are formed on the back panel 1b1. One of the second side panels 1b2 has an air inlet 11, and the other second side panel 1b2 has an empty area 14. An air outlet 12 is formed on the front panel 1a1, and one of the first side panels 1a2 has an air inlet 11.

[0091] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the wall-mounted structure 16 is located on the inner wall of the casing 1.

[0092] The wall-mounting structure 16 does not protrude from the outer wall of the casing 1, ensuring the integrity of the casing 1 and reducing interference between the air conditioner 100 and the outside environment during installation, thus facilitating installation. Furthermore, by placing the wall-mounting structure 16 on the inner wall of the casing 1, the casing 1 also protects the wall-mounting structure 16, preventing bumps and knocks during movement and improving the operational reliability of the wall-mounting structure 16.

[0093] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 8As shown, the wall-mounting structure 16 is integrally formed into the housing 1. The integral forming of the wall-mounting structure 16 and the housing 1 can improve the structural reliability of the wall-mounting structure 16, facilitate stable cooperation with the hook, and improve the installation stability of the air conditioner 100.

[0094] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, at least a portion of the outer peripheral wall of the housing 1 is flush with the outer peripheral wall of the storage cabinet 4, which can improve the overall integrity of the air conditioner 100.

[0095] At least a portion of the outer peripheral wall of the housing 1 is flush with the outer peripheral wall of the storage cabinet 4, and at least a portion of the housing 1 does not protrude from the storage cabinet 4. This reduces the possibility of interference between the housing 1 and the wall when the storage cabinet 4 is placed against the wall, which is beneficial for the arrangement.

[0096] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the rear wall 451 of the storage cabinet 4 is spaced apart from the front side of the rear wall 171 of the housing 1, so that the rear side of the storage cabinet 4 is provided with a storage space 46.

[0097] The rear wall 171 of the housing 1 protrudes backward compared to the rear wall 451 of the storage cabinet 4. When the air conditioner 100 is placed against the wall, the rear wall 171 of the housing 1 is close to the wall, and a large space 46 can be formed between the rear wall 451 of the storage cabinet 4 and the wall, which can be used for wiring to pass through and improve the neatness of the wiring; or it can be used for storing sundries; or it can avoid part of the wall structure behind the storage cabinet 4.

[0098] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the storage cabinet 4 is located at the bottom of the casing 1.
