Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of portable air conditioning technology, and more specifically, to a portable air conditioner with a sense of personal comfort. Background Technology

[0002] Portable air conditioners integrate the outdoor and indoor units into a single unit, meaning only the indoor unit is connected to the exterior wall or window via a flexible hose. They are primarily used for localized cooling or heating of specific areas or for personal use. Compared to traditional stationary air conditioners, the biggest advantage of portable air conditioners is their portability. Most portable air conditioners do not require complex installation. Simply connect the exhaust pipe to the outside through a window or door to expel hot and humid air.

[0003] Portable air conditioners have more complex application scenarios and are not as efficient as central air conditioning systems, but many models are designed to be quite energy-efficient. In order to improve the user experience, portable air conditioners need to intelligently adjust the air supply according to the user's location, so that portable air conditioners can feel like they are always with you.

[0004] Therefore, a portable air conditioner is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a portable air conditioner that allows for easy carrying, overcoming the aforementioned deficiencies in the prior art.

[0006] The technical solution to achieve the purpose of this utility model is: a portable air conditioner with a sense of personalization, comprising an air conditioner housing, a control board, an air vent, a radar module, and an air guide module; the control board is installed inside the air conditioner housing, the air vent is disposed on the air conditioner housing, and the radar module is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the air conditioner housing; the air guide module is rotatably installed on the air conditioner housing and located outside the air vent, both the radar module and the air guide module are electrically connected to the control board, and the control board controls the rotation angle of the air guide module according to the position of the person obtained by the radar module.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the air vent is disposed on the top of the air conditioner housing, and the air guiding module covers the air vent and is installed on the top of the air conditioner housing.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the air guide module includes an air guide plate and a driving device. The air guide plate is hinged to the air conditioner housing on both sides, and the driving device drives the air guide plate to rotate.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, at least one U-shaped plate is integrally provided below the air guide plate.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the radar module is fixed to the front side wall of the air conditioner housing.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the radar module is positioned between 0.5m and 1.2m above the ground.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, universal casters are installed below the air conditioner housing.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the air conditioner housing is further provided with a control panel, which is electrically connected to the control board.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] (1) This utility model constructs a complete intelligent follow-up air supply system by setting a control board inside the air conditioner housing, setting an air duct on the housing, fixing the radar module to the inner wall of the housing, and rotating the air duct module to the outside of the air duct. The radar module detects the location information of people in the environment in real time and transmits the signal to the control board; the control board analyzes and judges the received location data and automatically adjusts the swing angle of the air duct module so that the cold (hot) air is accurately blown to the area where the human body is located, realizing the active follow-up air supply mode of "wind blowing on people". This design breaks through the limitations of the fixed or random swing of traditional air conditioners, significantly improves the user's comfort and convenience, avoids the pain points of direct blowing discomfort or insufficient air supply, and reflects the development direction of intelligent home appliances.

[0016] (2) The air vent of this utility model is located at the top of the air conditioner housing, and the air guiding module covers the air vent and is installed on the top of the housing. This layout makes full use of the top space, making the air outlet direction wider and the air delivery distance farther, which is conducive to the uniform diffusion of airflow throughout the room. At the same time, the top installation method ensures that the rotation of the air guiding module is not interfered with by the structure below, the rotation angle range is larger, the flexibility is higher, and the coverage and accuracy of the follow-up air delivery are further enhanced.

[0017] (3) The air guide module of this utility model consists of an air guide plate and a driving device. The air guide plate is mounted on the air conditioner housing on both sides by hinges, and its automatic rotation is achieved by the driving device. The structure is simple and reliable. The hinged connection ensures the smoothness and accuracy of the rotation of the air guide plate. The driving device (such as a stepper motor or servo motor) responds quickly and accurately to the control board commands, realizing the dynamic adjustment of the angle of the air guide plate.

[0018] (4) The air guide plate of this utility model is integrally provided with at least one U-shaped plate below it. This design has multiple beneficial effects: the U-shaped plate, as an internal reinforcing structure, significantly improves the overall structural strength and deformation resistance of the air guide plate, preventing it from twisting or breaking during long-term use or frequent swinging; at the same time, the U-shaped plate provides a stable mounting point and force transmission path for the connecting parts of the drive device (such as connecting rods or rotating shafts), enhancing the reliability of the transmission; in addition, the U-shaped structure helps to guide the airflow along a specific direction, reducing eddies and wind resistance, indirectly optimizing the air guiding efficiency and aerodynamic performance, making the air delivery more concentrated and powerful.

[0019] (5) The radar module of this utility model is fixed on the front side wall of the air conditioner housing. This position is directly facing the area where users frequently move around, which is conducive to the radar beam covering the main activity space of the room at the best angle, improving the sensitivity and accuracy of human body detection. Front mounting also reduces the obstruction of radar signals by other components of the housing, ensuring a wide detection range and fast response, and providing a reliable data foundation for precise follow-up control.

[0020] (6) The radar module of this utility model is located between 0.5m and 1.2m above the ground. This height range corresponds precisely to the position of the torso and head of an adult when sitting or standing, which is the area most sensitive to human body heat. Setting the radar module at this height can most effectively capture the presence and positional changes of the human body, avoiding blind spots or misjudgments caused by installation that is too high or too low, and greatly improving the practicality and stability of the "personal sensing" function.

[0021] (7) The air conditioner housing of this utility model is also equipped with a control panel that is electrically connected to the control board. Users can manually set parameters such as operating mode, temperature, fan speed, and whether to enable the follow-up function through the panel to achieve human-computer interaction. The control panel provides an intuitive operation method, taking into account both the needs of intelligence and user autonomy, and improving the ease of use and humanization of the product.

[0022] (8) The addition of the universal pulley in this utility model greatly improves the portability and flexibility of the product, allowing users to easily move the air conditioner from one place to another to adapt to different space requirements. Attached Figure Description

[0034] Example 1: A portable air conditioner integrates the outdoor and indoor units into one unit, i.e., only the indoor unit is connected to the exterior wall or window via a flexible hose, and is used for localized or human-centered cooling or heating.

[0035] This embodiment mainly describes a portable air conditioner with a sense of movement. See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The system includes an air conditioner housing 1, a control board, an air vent 2, a radar module 3, and an air guide module 4. The control board is installed inside the air conditioner housing 1, the air vent 2 is located on the top of the air conditioner housing 1, and the radar module 3 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the air conditioner housing 1. The air guide module 4 is rotatably installed on the air conditioner housing 1 and located outside the air vent 2, covering the air vent 2 and installed on the top of the air conditioner housing 1. Both the radar module 3 and the air guide module 4 are electrically connected to the control board. The control board controls the rotation angle of the air guide module 4 based on the personnel position obtained by the radar module 3. By setting the control board inside the air conditioner housing, setting the air vent on the housing, fixing the radar module to the inner wall of the housing, and rotatably installing the air guide module outside the air vent, a complete intelligent follow-up air supply system is formed. The radar module detects the position information of people in the environment in real time and transmits the signal to the control board. The control board analyzes and judges the received position data and automatically adjusts the swing angle of the air guide module so that the cold (hot) air is accurately blown to the area where the person is located, realizing the "wind blowing on people" active follow-up air supply mode. This design breaks through the limitations of traditional air conditioners with fixed or random airflow, significantly improving user comfort and ease of use, avoiding the pain points of discomfort from direct airflow or insufficient air delivery, and reflecting the development direction of intelligent home appliances.

[0036] Specifically, the air guide module 4 includes an air guide plate 4-1 and a driving device. The air guide plate 4-1 is hinged to the air conditioner housing 1 on both sides, and the driving device drives the rotation of the air guide plate 4-1. Two U-shaped plates 4-2 are integrally provided below the air guide plate 4-1. This design has multiple beneficial effects: the U-shaped plates, as built-in reinforcing structures, significantly improve the overall structural strength and deformation resistance of the air guide plate, preventing it from twisting or breaking during long-term use or frequent swinging; at the same time, the U-shaped plates provide a stable mounting point and force transmission path for the connecting parts of the driving device (such as connecting rods or shafts), enhancing the reliability of the transmission; in addition, the U-shaped structure helps guide the airflow in a specific direction, reducing eddies and wind resistance, indirectly optimizing the air guiding efficiency and aerodynamic performance, making the air delivery more concentrated and powerful.

[0037] Specifically, radar module 3 uses millimeter-wave radar. Millimeter-wave radar features high precision and strong anti-interference capabilities, enabling it to accurately detect target locations in complex environments. Furthermore, millimeter-wave radar operates at high frequencies, is small in size, and is easily integrated into products, making it ideal for use in smart home devices such as human body sensing functions in air conditioners.

[0038] The radar module 3 is fixed to the front wall of the air conditioner housing 1. This position faces the area where users frequently move around, which allows the radar beam to cover the main activity space indoors at the optimal angle, improving the sensitivity and accuracy of human body detection. Front mounting also reduces the obstruction of radar signals by other components of the housing, ensuring a wide detection range and fast response, providing a reliable data foundation for precise follow-up control.

[0039] The radar module 3 is positioned between 0.5m and 1.2m above the ground. This height range corresponds precisely to the position of an adult's torso and head when sitting or standing, which is the area most sensitive to human heat. Placing the radar module at this height allows for the most effective detection of human presence and positional changes, avoiding blind spots or misjudgments caused by installation that is too high or too low, greatly improving the practicality and stability of the "personal sensing" function.

[0040] Specifically, four omnidirectional casters 5 are installed under the air conditioner housing 1; the addition of omnidirectional casters greatly improves the portability and flexibility of the product, allowing users to easily move the air conditioner from one place to another to adapt to different space requirements.

[0041] Specifically, the air conditioner housing 1 also includes a control panel 6, which is electrically connected to the control board. Users can manually set parameters such as operating mode, temperature, fan speed, and whether to enable the adaptive function via the panel, achieving human-machine interaction. The control panel provides an intuitive operating method, balancing the needs of intelligent operation with user-controlled autonomy, thus improving the product's ease of use and user-friendliness.

[0042] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this utility model. It should be understood that the above descriptions are merely specific embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
