Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioner technology, and more specifically, to an air dissipation module and an air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] Typically, an air conditioner consists of an indoor unit and an outdoor unit. To improve user comfort, a diffuser module is often installed at the air outlet of the indoor unit. This diffuser module disperses the airflow, reducing or eliminating the direct draft generated by the indoor unit during cooling or heating, thus avoiding discomfort caused by direct airflow.

[0003] Currently, air distribution modules are formed by creating air distribution holes on a flat surface. During use, the air conditioning air is directed forward through these holes to achieve a dispersion effect. However, to ensure effective air dispersion, the air distribution holes are often made relatively small, limiting the airflow. Conversely, to increase airflow, the holes need to be made larger, which weakens the dispersion effect. Furthermore, with larger openings, the internal structure of the indoor unit is directly exposed, resulting in a poor overall aesthetic appearance. Utility Model Content

[0004] The first objective of this utility model is to provide a ventilation module to solve the technical problem that existing ventilation modules cannot simultaneously achieve both large air supply flow and ventilation effect.

[0005] The air dissipation module provided by this utility model includes an air dissipation component and an outer frame surrounding and connected to the outer periphery of the air dissipation component. The air dissipation component includes a plurality of three-dimensional mesh layers arranged at intervals along a first direction. The three-dimensional mesh layers include a plurality of node layers, and each node layer includes a plurality of nodes in the same plane. Projected along the first direction, the nodes of any two adjacent node layers are misaligned, and the nodes of any two adjacent node layers are connected by air dissipation ribs to form a plurality of closely arranged three-dimensional air outlets.

[0006] Taking the use of this air diffuser module in an indoor air conditioning unit as an example, the air diffuser module can be installed at the air outlet of the indoor air conditioning unit. When the indoor air conditioning unit needs to supply air in zero-wind-feel mode, the air conditioning air blown out of the air outlet will flow towards the air diffuser. When the air conditioning air flows to the uppermost three-dimensional mesh layer, it will be dispersed by the nodes of the uppermost node layer of the three-dimensional mesh layer. At the same time, since each node of the node layer of each three-dimensional mesh layer is connected to each node of the next node layer through air diffuser ribs, after the airflow is dispersed by each node of the node layer, it will be further dispersed by the air diffuser ribs connected to that node as it continues to flow, and the above dispersion process will continue to repeat in the subsequent flow process. After multiple dispersion actions, it flows out from the lowermost three-dimensional mesh layer.

[0007] In this air diffusion module, the nodes of any two adjacent node layers in the three-dimensional mesh layer are misaligned along a first direction, and air diffusion ribs connect the nodes of the two adjacent node layers. This allows the air diffusion ribs to partially block the gaps between nodes in the same node layer in the first direction, thus dispersing the airflow as it passes through the three-dimensional mesh layer and delivering it, creating a diffusion effect. Furthermore, the three-dimensional air outlet formed between two node layers effectively increases the flow area compared to a planar mesh structure, thereby increasing the airflow rate. In this process, because the airflow is dispersed by the nodes and the air diffusion ribs connected to them, the dispersion effect is not limited by the size of the gaps between nodes. Therefore, the distance between nodes in the same node layer can be increased to improve the airflow volume. In other words, this air diffusion module ensures a large airflow volume for the indoor unit in zero-wind mode while also guaranteeing effective airflow dispersion, thus effectively solving the technical problems existing in the prior art.

[0008] In addition, the outer frame not only protects the edges of the air diffuser to reduce wear at the edges, but also provides sufficient strength at the edges to reduce warping and deformation, resulting in a better fit between the air diffuser module and the air outlet of the unit.

[0009] Furthermore, each node layer forms multiple closely arranged air-diffusing units, with the apex of each air-diffusing unit forming a node of the current node layer. Projected along the first direction, the air-diffusing units formed by each node layer partially overlap with the air-diffusing units formed by adjacent node layers. This arrangement ensures that, in the projection along the first direction, the edge of an air-diffusing unit in any two adjacent node layers can fall into the air-diffusing unit of the other, thereby using the edge of the air-diffusing unit to block the airflow path and disperse the airflow.

[0010] Furthermore, each node in the node layer is connected to multiple air-diffusing ribs, and these ribs are arranged at circumferential intervals along the same node. By providing multiple circumferentially arranged air-diffusing ribs at each node, on the one hand, the airflow can be dispersed into multiple streams when passing through the node, ensuring both dispersion and uniform airflow. On the other hand, the multiple air-diffusing ribs can also provide support at the node, reducing the deformation of the three-dimensional mesh layer under the impact of airflow, thereby ensuring the structural strength of the air-diffusing module.

[0011] Furthermore, the plurality of node layers includes a first node layer, a second node layer, and a third node layer arranged sequentially along the first direction. Each of the air-diffusing ribs connected to each node of the first node layer is located between the first node layer and the second node layer; each of the air-diffusing ribs connected to each node of the second node layer is disposed on both sides of the second node layer; and each of the air-diffusing ribs connected to each node of the third node layer is located between the second node layer and the third node layer. This arrangement ensures that the large-diameter end of the conical structure formed by the multiple air-diffusing ribs connected to each node of the first node layer faces the second node layer, and the large-diameter end of the conical structure formed by the multiple air-diffusing ribs connected to each node of the third node layer also faces the second node layer. Utilizing the space between the first node layer and the third node layer, effective accommodation is achieved for the ribs connected to the first node layer and the ribs connected to the third node layer, which helps reduce the overall thickness of the three-dimensional mesh layer, thus enabling a thinner design for the air-diffusing module.

[0012] Furthermore, the air dispersion unit has quadrilateral holes. In each of the three-dimensional mesh layers, there are four air dispersion ribs connected to each node of each node layer, and the four air dispersion ribs connected to the same node are arranged in a cross shape. This arrangement ensures that the multiple air dispersion ribs connected to each node of the first node layer and the multiple air dispersion ribs connected to each node of the third node layer form a three-dimensional air dispersion unit in the shape of a quadrangular pyramid, which not only provides good airflow dispersion but also good support stability.

[0013] Furthermore, the three-dimensional air outlet includes four angled air outlet surfaces, each of which forms an angle with the plane containing the node layer. The three-dimensional air outlet is a square pyramidal hole. This arrangement allows the airflow delivered through the three-dimensional air outlet to be blown out in four different directions, and the collision effect of the airflows after the path is deflected can be used to improve the airflow dispersion effect.

[0014] Furthermore, the air-diffusing unit has square holes; projected along the first direction, the nodes of the first node layer roughly fall into the geometric center of the air-diffusing unit of the third node layer, and the nodes of the third node layer roughly fall into the geometric center of the air-diffusing unit of the first node layer. This arrangement allows the three-dimensional mesh layer, when projected along the first direction, to form a structure with multiple square holes divided by several air-diffusing ribs, resulting in good uniformity of airflow passing through the three-dimensional mesh layer and a large flow area.

[0015] Furthermore, the outer frame includes an air inlet frame, an air outlet frame, and a connecting rod. The air inlet frame is located on the windward side of the air diffuser, and the air outlet frame is located on the leeward side of the air diffuser, with both the air inlet frame and the air outlet frame surrounding the air diffuser. The connecting rod securely connects the air inlet frame and the air outlet frame. This configuration of the outer frame not only provides structural support for the air diffuser on both the windward and leeward sides but also reduces material usage, thus lowering the weight and material cost of the outer frame.

[0016] Furthermore, the ventilation module is a 3D (Three-Dimensional) printed structure. By manufacturing the ventilation module using 3D printing, not only can the manufacturing cycle of the ventilation module be shortened, but also the cost and time of mold manufacturing are saved because there is no need to manufacture molds.

[0017] The second objective of this utility model is to provide an air conditioner that solves the technical problem that existing air dissipation modules cannot simultaneously achieve both large air supply flow and effective air dissipation.

[0018] The air conditioner provided by this utility model includes an indoor unit and an outdoor unit connected to the indoor unit via a refrigerant pipeline. The indoor unit includes a body and the aforementioned air dissipation module. The air dissipation module is installed on the body, wherein the body has an air outlet, and the air dissipation component of the air dissipation module is opposite to the air outlet.

[0019] During operation, the air conditioning unit's indoor unit sends out air through the vents. The air is then dispersed by the air diffusion module, reducing or eliminating direct drafts during cooling or heating, thus avoiding discomfort caused by direct airflow. By incorporating this air diffusion module, the air conditioner gains all the advantages of such a module, which will not be elaborated upon further here. Attached Figure Description

[0036] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this utility model and are not intended to limit it.

[0037] This embodiment provides an air conditioner, including an indoor unit and an outdoor unit connected to the indoor unit via refrigerant piping.

[0038] Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of the indoor unit of the air conditioner provided in this embodiment. Figure 1 As shown, the indoor unit of the air conditioner provided in this embodiment includes a body 020 and an air dissipation module 010. The air dissipation module 010 is installed on the body 020. The body 020 has an air outlet, and the air dissipation component 100 of the air dissipation module 010 is opposite to the air outlet.

[0039] During operation, the air conditioning indoor unit sends out the air through the air outlet opened on the unit body 020. Under the action of the air dispersing module 010, the air is dispersed to reduce or eliminate the direct wind generated by the air conditioning indoor unit during the cooling or heating process, thereby avoiding discomfort caused by direct blowing.

[0040] In this embodiment, the accompanying drawings are only used as an example of a floor-standing air conditioner indoor unit. It can be understood that the air conditioner indoor unit can also be a wall-mounted air conditioner.

[0041] The following text will provide a detailed explanation of the specific structure of the air dispersion module 010 and the principle of its airflow dispersion.

[0042] Figure 2 This is a three-dimensional model diagram of the air dissipation module 010 provided in this embodiment; Figure 3 This is a structural schematic diagram of the air dissipation module 010 provided in this embodiment. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the air dissipation module 010 provided in this embodiment includes an air dissipation component 100 and an outer frame 200 surrounding and connected to the outer periphery of the air dissipation component 100.

[0043] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional mesh layer 110 of the air dissipation module 010 provided in this embodiment; Figure 5 for Figure 4 Enlarged view of the local structure at point A; Figure 6 This is a partial front view of the three-dimensional mesh layer 110 of the air distribution module 010 provided in this embodiment. Please continue to refer to... Figure 2 and Figure 3 and combined Figures 4 to 6 Specifically, the air diffuser 100 includes a plurality of three-dimensional mesh layers 110 arranged at intervals along a first direction. Each three-dimensional mesh layer 110 includes a plurality of node layers 111, and each node layer 111 includes a plurality of nodes 1111 located on the same plane. Projected along the first direction, the nodes 1111 of any two adjacent node layers 111 are out of position, and the nodes 1111 of any two adjacent node layers 111 are connected by air diffuser ribs 120 to form a plurality of closely arranged three-dimensional air outlets 130.

[0044] When the indoor unit of the air conditioner needs to supply air in zero-wind mode, the air conditioning air blown out through the air outlet will flow towards the diffuser 100. When the air conditioning air flows to the uppermost three-dimensional mesh layer 110, it will be dispersed by each node 1111 of the uppermost node layer 111 in the three-dimensional mesh layer 110. At the same time, since each node 1111 of each node layer 111 of the three-dimensional mesh layer 110 is connected to each node 1111 of the next node layer 111 through diffuser ribs 120, after the airflow is dispersed by each node 1111 of the node layer 111, it will be further dispersed by each diffuser rib 120 connected to that node 1111 as it continues to flow, and the above dispersion process will continue to repeat in the subsequent flow process. After multiple dispersion actions, it flows out from the lowermost three-dimensional mesh layer 110.

[0045] In this air dispersion module 010, by misaligning the projections of nodes 1111 of any two adjacent node layers 111 in the three-dimensional mesh layer 110 along a first direction, and connecting the nodes 1111 of the two adjacent node layers 111 using air dispersion ribs 120, the air dispersion ribs 120 can partially block the gaps between nodes 1111 in the same node layer 111 in the first direction. This allows the airflow to be dispersed and delivered after passing through the three-dimensional mesh layer 110, creating an air dispersion effect. Furthermore, the three-dimensional air outlet 130 formed between two node layers 111 effectively increases the flow area compared to a planar mesh structure, thereby increasing the airflow rate. In the above process, since the airflow is dispersed by the nodes 1111 and the air dispersion ribs 120 connected to the nodes 1111, the dispersion effect is not limited by the size of the gaps between the nodes 1111. Based on this, the distance between the nodes 1111 in the same node layer 111 can be increased to improve the airflow rate. In other words, the air dispersing module 010 ensures that the indoor unit of the air conditioner has a large air volume in zero-wind mode, while also ensuring the dispersing effect of the airflow, thus effectively solving the technical problems existing in the prior art.

[0046] In addition, the outer frame 200 not only protects the edge of the air diffuser 100 to reduce wear on the edge, but also gives the air diffuser 100 sufficient strength at the edge to reduce warping and deformation, so that the air diffuser module 010 fits better with the air outlet of the body 020 when it is installed.

[0047] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the "first direction" is the direction in which the airflow flows out through the air outlet of the body 020, that is, the direction from back to front of the indoor unit of the air conditioner, that is, the thickness direction of the air dissipation module 010.

[0048] Generally, one side of the indoor unit of an air conditioner faces the room or the area where the user is active; this side is the front of the indoor unit. The side facing a corner or a wall is the rear. Specifically, in this embodiment, the front-rear direction of the indoor unit is as follows: Figure 1 The corresponding arrows in the diagram indicate this.

[0049] Please continue to refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 Each node layer 111 forms multiple closely arranged air-diffusing units 1112, and the top corner of each air-diffusing unit 1112 forms each node 1111 of the current node layer 111; when projected along the first direction, the air-diffusing units 1112 formed by each node layer 111 partially overlap with the air-diffusing units 1112 formed by the adjacent node layer 111.

[0050] In this embodiment, the different air distribution units 1112 formed in different node layers 111 can be derived from... Figure 5 and Figure 6 The red, green, and blue boxes in the diagram represent the elements; the apex of each air distribution unit 1112 is the node 1111 belonging to the current node layer 111. Figure 6 As can be seen, along the projection of the first direction, the air dissipation units 1112 enclosed by the green frame, the air dissipation units 1112 enclosed by the red frame, and the air dissipation units 1112 enclosed by the blue frame partially overlap each other.

[0051] With this setting, the edge of the air diffuser unit 1112 of any two adjacent node layers 111 in the projection along the first direction can fall into the air diffuser unit 1112 of the other, thereby using the edge of the air diffuser unit 1112 to block the air outlet path and disperse the airflow.

[0052] In this embodiment, the method of using the air-dispersing ribs 120 to disperse the airflow, due to the staggered arrangement of the air-dispersing ribs 120, allows the air-dispersing ribs 120 to form a shielding effect on the downstream air-dispersing unit 1112 in the first direction, thereby reducing the risk of the internal structure of the air-conditioning indoor unit being directly exposed through the air-dispersing unit 1112 and ensuring the overall aesthetics of the air-conditioning indoor unit.

[0053] Figure 7 This is one of the partial structural schematic diagrams of the three-dimensional mesh layer 110 of the air dissipation module 010 provided in this embodiment under a three-dimensional model. Figure 8 This is a partial structural diagram of the three-dimensional mesh layer 110 of the air dissipation module 010 provided in this embodiment; Figure 9 This is the second partial structural schematic diagram of the three-dimensional mesh layer 110 of the air dissipation module 010 provided in this embodiment under the three-dimensional model; Figure 10This is the third partial structural schematic diagram of the three-dimensional mesh layer 110 of the air dissipation module 010 provided in this embodiment, shown in a three-dimensional model. Please continue to refer to... Figure 5 and Figure 6 and combined Figures 7 to 10 In this embodiment, each node 1111 of the node layer 111 is connected to multiple air-diffusing ribs 120, and the multiple air-diffusing ribs 120 connected to the same node 1111 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the node 1111.

[0054] By setting multiple air-diffusing ribs 120 arranged circumferentially at each node 1111, on the one hand, the airflow can be dispersed into multiple streams when passing through the node 1111, ensuring both dispersion effect and uniform airflow. On the other hand, the multiple air-diffusing ribs 120 can also play a supporting role at the node 1111, reducing the deformation of the three-dimensional mesh layer 110 under the impact of airflow, thereby ensuring the structural strength of the air-diffusing module 010.

[0055] Please continue to refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In this embodiment, the three-dimensional mesh layer 110 includes a plurality of node layers 111, which may be a first node layer 111a, a second node layer 111b, and a third node layer 111c arranged sequentially along a first direction. The air-diffusing ribs 120 of each node 1111 connected to the first node layer 111a are located between the first node layer 111a and the second node layer 111b; the air-diffusing ribs 120 of each node 1111 connected to the second node layer 111b are respectively disposed on both sides of the second node layer 111b; and the air-diffusing ribs 120 of each node 1111 connected to the third node layer 111c are located between the second node layer 111b and the third node layer 111c.

[0056] Figure 5 and Figure 6 In the diagram, the node layer 111 where the air diffuser unit 1112 formed by the red frame is located can be regarded as the first node layer 111a mentioned above, the node layer 111 where the air diffuser unit 1112 formed by the green frame is located can be regarded as the second node layer 111b mentioned above, and the node layer 111 where the air diffuser unit 1112 formed by the blue frame is located can be regarded as the third node layer 111c mentioned above.

[0057] This configuration ensures that the large-diameter end of the conical structure formed by the multiple air-diffusing ribs 120 of each node 1111 connected to the first node layer 111a faces the second node layer 111b, and the large-diameter end of the conical structure formed by the multiple air-diffusing ribs 120 of each node 1111 connected to the third node layer 111c also faces the second node layer 111b. By utilizing the space between the first node layer 111a and the third node layer 111c, the ribs connected to the first node layer 111a and the ribs connected to the third node layer 111c are effectively accommodated, which helps to reduce the overall thickness of the three-dimensional mesh layer 110, so as to realize the thin design of the air-diffusing module 010.

[0058] It should be noted that the air dissipation unit 1112 mentioned in this embodiment is not a hole structure with edges on each side in a strict sense. It is only proposed to describe the structure of the air dissipation module 010 more clearly. In fact, the air dissipation unit 1112 of each node layer 111 can be regarded as being formed by connecting some nodes 1111 in that node layer 111.

[0059] Please continue to refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In this embodiment, the air dissipation unit 1112 has a quadrilateral hole. In each three-dimensional mesh layer 110, there are four air dissipation ribs 120 connected to each node 1111 of each node layer 111, and the four air dissipation ribs 120 connected to the same node 1111 are arranged in a cross shape.

[0060] This configuration enables multiple air-diffusing ribs 120 connected to each node 1111 of the first node layer 111a and multiple air-diffusing ribs 120 connected to each node 1111 of the third node layer 111c to form a three-dimensional air-diffusing unit in the shape of a quadrangular pyramid, which not only has a good effect on dispersing airflow, but also has good support stability.

[0061] In addition, this arrangement also allows the four air-diffusing ribs 120 connected to each node 1111 of the second node layer 111b to have two located between the first node layer 111a and the second node layer 111b, and the other two located between the second node layer 111b and the third node layer 111c. This ensures that no matter which side of the second node layer 111b the two air-diffusing ribs 120 are on, they can form a stable support structure with the adjacent first node layer 111a and third node layer 111c.

[0062] Please continue to refer to Figure 5 and Figure 8 In this embodiment, the three-dimensional air outlet 130 includes four air outlet surfaces 131 arranged at an angle. Each air outlet surface 131 forms an angle with the plane where the node layer 111 is located. The three-dimensional air outlet 130 is a four-sided pyramidal hole.

[0063] This design allows the airflow delivered through the three-dimensional air outlet 130 to be blown out in four different directions. The collision effect of the airflows after the path is deflected can be used to improve the dispersion effect of the airflow.

[0064] Please continue to refer to Figure 6 In this embodiment, the air dissipation units 1112 formed in each node layer 111 are all square holes.

[0065] This design makes the three-dimensional mesh layer 110 easier to process and manufacture.

[0066] Please continue to refer to Figure 6 In this embodiment, when projected along the first direction, the nodes 1111 of the first node layer 111a fall approximately into the geometric center of the air distribution unit 1112 of the third node layer 111c, and the nodes 1111 of the third node layer 111c fall approximately into the geometric center of the air distribution unit 1112 of the first node layer 111a.

[0067] With this configuration, the three-dimensional mesh layer 110, when projected along the first direction, can form a structure with multiple square holes divided by several air-diffusing ribs 120, thereby ensuring good uniformity of airflow when passing through the three-dimensional mesh layer 110 and a large flow area.

[0068] It should be noted that in this embodiment, "the node 1111 of the first node layer 111a approximately falls within the geometric center of the air-diffusing unit 1112 of the third node layer 111c" can be: a circular region with an area of ​​10% of the area of ​​the air-diffusing unit 1112 is formed with the geometric center of the air-diffusing unit 1112 of the third node layer 111c as the center, and the projection of the node 1111 of the first node layer 111a along the first direction falls within this circular region. Similarly, "the node 1111 of the third node layer 111c approximately falls within the geometric center of the air-diffusing unit 1112 of the first node layer 111a" can be: a circular region with an area of ​​10% of the area of ​​the air-diffusing unit 1112 is formed with the geometric center of the air-diffusing unit 1112 of the first node layer 111a as the center, and the projection of the node 1111 of the third node layer 111c along the first direction approximately falls within this circular region.

[0069] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 In this embodiment, the outer frame 200 may include an air inlet frame 210, an air outlet frame 220, and a connecting rod 230. The air inlet frame 210 is located on the windward side of the air diffuser 100, and the air outlet frame 220 is located on the leeward side of the air diffuser 100. Both the air inlet frame 210 and the air outlet frame 220 surround the air diffuser 100. The connecting rod 230 is fixedly connected to the air inlet frame 210 and the air outlet frame 220.

[0070] This configuration of the outer frame 200 not only provides structural support for the wind diffuser 100 on both the windward and leeward sides, but also reduces the amount of material used, which helps to lower the weight and material cost of the outer frame 200.

[0071] In this embodiment, the air dissipation module 010 is a 3D printed structure.

[0072] By manufacturing the ventilation module 010 using 3D printing, not only can the manufacturing cycle of the ventilation module 010 be shortened, but also the cost and time of mold manufacturing can be saved because there is no need to manufacture molds.
