[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model are further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this utility model and are not intended to limit it.

[0028] See Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides an installation structure for an air outlet assembly, applied to an air conditioner, wherein the air outlet assembly includes:

[0029] Casing 1;

[0030] A volute 5 is disposed on the housing 1. The volute 5 has a cavity. The cavity is provided with a connected air inlet 6 and a first air outlet 7 and a second air outlet 8 that are independently disposed from each other. The first air outlet 7 and the second air outlet 8 are located at different positions on the volute 5.

[0031] The humidification component is detachably located in the air outlet path of the second air outlet 8;

[0032] The cavity is equipped with a fresh air fan 9, which is used to introduce fresh outdoor air through the air inlet 6 and discharge it through the first air outlet 7 and the second air outlet 8 respectively.

[0033] In this embodiment, the housing 1 serves as an integral support structure, and the volute 5 is integrated within the housing 1. It has a cavity with an air inlet 6 and two independent air outlet paths. The first air outlet 7 draws in fresh outdoor air through the fresh air fan 9 inside the volute 5 for delivery. The second air outlet 8 has a humidification function, and the humidification component is detachably mounted on the air outlet path of the second air outlet 8. A single volute 5 dual-outlet structure is adopted, and the fresh air fan 9 achieves a one-inlet, two-outlet airflow distribution. The first air outlet 7 delivers fresh outdoor air, and the second air outlet 8 outputs humidified air. The dual air outlets are airtight. The air outlets are arranged in a separate layout, with the first air outlet 7 arranged vertically and the second air outlet 8 arranged front-to-back, to avoid airflow mixing between the first air outlet 7 and the second air outlet 8. Fresh air and humidified air are introduced together to humidify the outdoor air, solving the problem of dry fresh air in traditional air conditioners. The independent air duct can reduce the wind resistance of the humidification component on the first air duct. At the same time, the humidification component is designed to be detachable for easy water filling. When the humidification function is not needed, the humidification component can be removed. The first air outlet 7 and the second air outlet 8 are only used as the outlet path for outdoor fresh air.

[0034] The housing 1 includes a front plate 2, a rear plate 3, and a base 4, wherein the front plate 2 and the rear plate 3 are detachably disposed on the base 4.

[0035] In this embodiment, the housing 1 is divided into a front plate 2, a rear plate 3 and a base 4. The front plate 2 and the base plate can be fastened to the base 4 by a snap-fit ​​structure, which facilitates disassembly to expose the humidification component for water addition or disassembly.

[0036] The rear panel 3 is provided with an installation platform 31, and the humidification component is detachably mounted on the installation platform 31.

[0037] In this embodiment, a mounting platform 31 is provided on the rear plate 3. When disassembling the housing 1, only the rear plate 3 needs to be removed to expose the humidification component. The humidification component can be detachably mounted on the mounting platform 31 by bolts or screws.

[0038] The humidification component includes an L-shaped bracket 10, the horizontal end of which is detachably mounted on the mounting platform 31, and its vertical end extends toward the second air outlet 8. The horizontal end of the bracket 10 is provided with a Hall sensor PCB board mounting groove.

[0039] In this embodiment, the humidification component includes an L-shaped bracket 10. The horizontal end of the bracket 10 is detachably mounted on the mounting platform 31, and the vertical end of the bracket 10 is located on the air outlet path of the second air outlet 8. The horizontal end is connected to the mounting platform 31, and the vertical end extends to the air outlet path of the second air outlet 8. This not only allows the humidification component to cover the air outlet path of the second air outlet 8, but also forms a stable cantilever support structure to enhance the stability of the installation. The Hall sensor PCB board mounting slot (not shown) is located between the horizontal end and the mounting platform 31 to realize non-contact detection of the humidification component's position or water level monitoring.

[0040] The humidification component also includes:

[0041] A water tank is provided on the bracket 10. The water tank includes a detachable upper cover 11 and a lower cover 14. The upper cover 11 is provided with a water inlet 12 and a silicone sealing cap 13. The lower cover 14 is provided with a water outlet 15 and a limiting groove 16 for fixing the buoy assembly. The height of the water outlet 15 is ≤3mm.

[0042] In this embodiment, the upper cover 11 and the lower cover 14 are detachably connected for installing the buoy assembly in the water tank. The upper cover 11 is provided with a water inlet 12 for injecting water into the water tank. The water inlet 12 is sealed with a silicone sealing cap 13. The lower cover 14 is provided with a water outlet 15 and a limiting groove 16 for fixing the buoy assembly, ensuring that the buoy assembly works stably in the water tank and preventing displacement. It works with a Hall sensor to achieve a water level detection accuracy of ±2mm. The height of the water outlet 15 at the bottom of the lower cover 14 is ≤3mm to adapt to atmospheric pressure for water locking.

[0043] The buoy assembly includes a buoy top cover 17 and a buoy, a neodymium iron boron magnet 19, and a magnetic waterproof rubber 20, which are stacked sequentially on the buoy top cover 17.

[0044] In this embodiment, the buoy assembly is used to sense the water level height to realize the water level detection function. The buoy assembly includes a buoy top cover 17 and a buoy 18, a neodymium iron boron magnet 19, and a waterproof rubber magnet 20 stacked in sequence inside the buoy top cover 17. The neodymium iron boron magnet 19 provides a magnetic induction signal and works with the Hall sensor to realize non-contact water level detection. The waterproof rubber magnet 20 seals the neodymium iron boron magnet 19 and prevents water from seeping into the buoy top cover 17, enhancing waterproof performance and extending service life. As the water level in the water tank changes, the buoy 18 floats up and down inside the buoy top cover 17. The Hall sensor detects the change in the magnetic field of the neodymium iron boron magnet 19 to determine the current water level. In conjunction with the control circuit, it realizes functions such as water shortage alarm, automatic water replenishment, or stopping humidification.

[0045] The humidification component also includes a water-absorbing wet curtain 21, one end of which is located at the water outlet 15 and the other end is located at the air outlet path of the second air outlet 8.

[0046] In this embodiment, one end of the water-absorbing wet curtain 21 is connected to the water tank outlet 15 to achieve capillary water supply, and the other end extends to the second air outlet 8 to form an evaporation surface. Zero-energy water supply is achieved through physical contact without the need for a water pump. The purpose of water evaporation and air humidification is achieved by utilizing the airflow from the second air outlet 8.

[0047] The water-absorbing wet curtain 21 has a wavy structure.

[0048] In this embodiment, the wavy structure of the water-absorbing wet curtain 21 increases the effective surface area of ​​the wet curtain, allowing more air to come into contact with the moist surface, thereby improving humidification efficiency. The wavy shape helps guide airflow, making it more evenly distributed across the entire wet curtain and reducing localized over-humidification or dryness. The wavy structure of the water-absorbing wet curtain 21 employs an asymmetrical wave structure. The troughs of the waves form micro-water films to enhance the evaporation efficiency of moisture, while the crests form guiding ridges, increasing the airflow velocity gradient at the second air outlet 8 by 20%-30%.

[0049] A honeycomb-shaped air guide grille 22 is embedded between the bracket 10 and the second air outlet 8.

[0050] In this embodiment, the honeycomb-shaped air guide grille 22 can effectively disperse the airflow, allowing the air to pass through the water-absorbing wet curtain 21 more evenly.

[0051] This embodiment also provides an outdoor unit for an air conditioner, including the installation structure of the air outlet component described above. The specific structure of the air conditioner is the same as described in the above embodiment. Since this air conditioner adopts all the technical solutions of the above embodiment, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiment, which will not be described in detail here.

[0052] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
