Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of air conditioning technology, specifically providing an indoor air conditioning unit and a ceiling-mounted air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, in addition to wall-mounted and floor-standing air conditioners, ceiling-mounted air conditioners are becoming increasingly popular. However, ceiling-mounted air conditioners may experience refrigerant leaks during use. After a period of time, the concentration of leaked refrigerant can become high, and since some refrigerants are flammable, this poses a risk of flammability and explosion.

[0003] In related technologies, refrigerant detection devices are installed above or in the middle of the evaporator. However, this arrangement is not only difficult to disassemble, but also results in the following: refrigerant detection devices installed above the evaporator cannot detect refrigerant sinking downwards in a timely manner, while those installed in the middle of the evaporator are in a high-humidity, high-temperature alternating environment for a long time, which reduces their sensitivity and leads to failure to detect refrigerant leaks in a timely manner, resulting in poor safety. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application aims to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, namely, to solve the problem of poor timeliness and accuracy of refrigerant detection devices. This application provides an indoor air conditioning unit and a ceiling-mounted air conditioner.

[0005] In a first aspect, this application provides an indoor air conditioning unit, comprising: a housing that internally encloses an installation space for an indoor heat exchanger, the housing including a panel; a first mounting member fixed to the panel and extending in a direction away from the panel, the first mounting member having a fixing hole extending along its own length direction, the fixing hole being configured to be fixedly connected to a first side end of a refrigerant detection device via a connector; and a second mounting member arranged opposite to the first mounting member, the second mounting member having a slot facing the first mounting member, the slot being configured to allow a second side end of the refrigerant detection device to be inserted.

[0006] By employing the above technical solution, and by setting a first mounting component and a second mounting component on the panel, the refrigerant detection device can be fixed in a defined position away from the indoor heat exchanger. This avoids interference with the detection results caused by high or low temperature environments, thereby improving the accuracy and timeliness of the detection. Specifically, the refrigerant detection device is connected to the first mounting component via a connector and plugged into the second mounting component to achieve installation on the panel. Since the panel is located below the indoor heat exchanger after the air conditioner indoor unit is installed, the refrigerant detection device, positioned below the heat exchanger, can be quickly and stably installed while also enabling rapid detection of leaked and settled refrigerant, thus improving the safety of the air conditioner indoor unit.

[0007] In the optional implementation of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, it further includes: a heat exchange shell, installed on the panel, wherein an indoor heat exchanger is provided inside the heat exchange shell; and a refrigerant conduit, one end of which is located at the bottom of the heat exchange shell, and the other end of which extends to the detection end of the refrigerant detection device.

[0008] By designing a heat exchange shell, the indoor heat exchanger can be confined within a space, separating it from the refrigerant detection device. This further reduces the impact of temperature changes on the detection results and the device itself, while also preventing refrigerant from escaping. Furthermore, the refrigerant conduit allows leaked refrigerant to be promptly guided to the location of the detection device, enabling real-time monitoring of leaked refrigerant. This allows for rapid identification of refrigerant leaks while maintaining detection efficiency, thereby improving overall safety.

[0009] In the optional implementation of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, the second mounting component has a weight-reducing groove on the side opposite to the first mounting component.

[0010] By creating a weight-reducing groove on the side of the second mounting component that faces away from the first mounting component, the overall weight can be reduced while ensuring structural strength.

[0011] In the optional implementation of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, it further includes: a first support rib, disposed between the first mounting member and the second mounting member, and extending from the first mounting member toward the second mounting member, wherein the first support rib is configured to abut against the first side of the refrigerant detection device.

[0012] The installation of the first support rib provides additional support for the refrigerant detection device, enhancing its installation stability.

[0013] In the optional implementation of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, it further includes: a second support rib extending along the length direction of the first support rib and spaced apart from the first support rib, the second support rib being configured to abut against the first side of the refrigerant detection device.

[0014] The addition of a second support rib further enhances the stability of the refrigerant detection device and distributes the stress. In conjunction with the first support rib, it also effectively strengthens the overall structural reliability and ensures the refrigerant detection device remains stable during operation, thereby optimizing the detection results.

[0015] In the optional implementation of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, the first support rib is fixedly connected to the second mounting component; and / or the second support rib is fixedly connected to the second mounting component.

[0016] This further enhances the reliability and stability of the overall panel structure, ensuring that the first and second support ribs are less likely to loosen or be damaged during long-term use, reducing the risk of deformation of the installation components due to vibration or external forces, thereby extending the service life of the air conditioner indoor unit.

[0017] In the optional implementation of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, a fixed space is defined between the second support rib and the first support rib; the air conditioner indoor unit also includes a magnetic suction assembly, the magnetic suction assembly including: a first magnetic suction member disposed in the fixed space; a second magnetic suction member fixed to the first side of the refrigerant detection device, the second magnetic suction member and the first magnetic suction member attracting each other.

[0018] The magnetic chuck assembly further enhances the stability of the refrigerant detection device, making it more secure during operation and reducing the risk of displacement due to vibration or external forces. The magnetic chuck design not only improves installation convenience but also allows for quick disassembly for maintenance or replacement, significantly increasing operational efficiency.

[0019] In the optional implementation of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, the first support rib is provided with a first mounting groove extending along its own length direction; the second support rib is provided with a second mounting groove corresponding to the first mounting groove; the first magnetic member has a mounting base, and the two ends of the mounting base can be slidably inserted into the first mounting groove and the second mounting groove respectively.

[0020] The combination of the first and second mounting slots enables rapid installation and positioning of the first magnetic component, while ensuring its stability within a fixed space. The sliding insertion of the mounting base optimizes the assembly process and improves installation flexibility, allowing the magnetic assembly to be adjusted or replaced according to actual needs.

[0021] In the optional implementation of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, the first mounting slot has a first opening, and the second mounting slot has a second opening corresponding to the first opening, and the first opening and the second opening are for the mounting base to be inserted; the first mounting slot is provided with a first locking block at the side end away from the first opening, and the second mounting slot is provided with a second locking block at the side end away from the second opening; the mounting base is provided with a first locking groove that cooperates with the first locking block, and a second locking groove that cooperates with the second locking block.

[0022] The first and second openings allow for the insertion of the mounting base. The cooperation between the first locking block and the first slot, as well as the cooperation between the second locking block and the second slot, ensures that the mounting base is firmly locked after insertion, preventing loosening due to external force or vibration.

[0023] In a second aspect, this application provides a ceiling-mounted air conditioner, including the aforementioned indoor unit; and a refrigerant detection device, wherein a first mounting ear and a second mounting ear are respectively provided on a first side end and a second side end of the refrigerant detection device, the first mounting ear being connected to the fixing hole, and the second mounting ear being inserted into the slot.

[0024] By employing the above technical solution, and by setting a first mounting bracket and a second mounting bracket on the panel, the refrigerant detection device can be fixed in a defined position away from the indoor heat exchanger. This avoids interference with the detection results caused by high or low temperature environments, thereby improving the accuracy and timeliness of the detection. Specifically, the first mounting ear of the refrigerant detection device is connected to the first mounting bracket via a connector, and the second mounting ear is inserted into the second mounting bracket. This ensures the stability of the refrigerant detection device installation while facilitating disassembly and maintenance. Attached Figure Description

[0047] Firstly, combining Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 10 As shown, this embodiment of the present disclosure provides an indoor air conditioning unit, including a housing 10, a first mounting member 20, and a second mounting member 30. The housing 10 internally encloses an installation space for an indoor heat exchanger 51, and the housing 10 includes a panel 11. The first mounting member 20 is fixed to the panel 11 and extends in a direction away from the panel 11. The first mounting member 20 has a fixing hole 21 extending along its own length direction, and the fixing hole 21 is configured to be fixedly connected to the first side end 41 of a refrigerant detection device 40 via a connector 23. The second mounting member 30 is arranged opposite to the first mounting member 20, and the second mounting member 30 has a slot 31 facing the first mounting member 20, and the slot 31 is configured for the second side end 42 of the refrigerant detection device 40 to be inserted.

[0048] Optionally, the housing 10 in this solution is located at the top of the room, that is, the panel 11 of the housing 10 is arranged facing the indoor environment and located at the bottom of the housing 10.

[0049] The housing 10 houses an indoor heat exchanger 51 and an indoor fan. The panel 11 has at least one indoor air outlet. Driven by the indoor fan, indoor air enters the housing 10, exchanges heat with the indoor heat exchanger 51, and then returns to the room through the indoor air outlet. Specifically, after the indoor unit is installed, the panel 11 is located below the indoor heat exchanger 51.

[0050] During operation, the indoor heat exchanger 51 may experience refrigerant leakage. By installing a refrigerant detection device 40 on the panel 11, the accuracy of the detection device 40 can be prevented from being affected by temperature changes during the operation of the indoor heat exchanger 51. Furthermore, since refrigerant leaks can cause it to settle due to changes in ambient temperature and pressure, placing the refrigerant detection device 40 on the panel 11 below the indoor heat exchanger 51 helps improve the timeliness of refrigerant leak detection, thereby enhancing the safety of the indoor air conditioning unit during use.

[0051] Optionally, a first mounting member 20 and a second mounting member 30 are provided on the inner surface of the panel 11. The refrigerant detection device 40 is inserted into the second mounting member 30 and then fixedly connected to the first mounting member 20 via a connector. This allows for quick installation or removal of the refrigerant detection device 40, facilitating maintenance and replacement.

[0052] Optionally, the first mounting member 20 extends toward the interior of the housing 10 in a direction away from the panel 11 and has a mounting hole 21 extending along its own length. The connector 23 can pass through the first mounting ear 411 and the mounting hole 21 of the refrigerant detection device 40, thereby fixing the refrigerant detection device 40.

[0053] Optionally, the mounting hole 21 is a threaded hole, and the connector 23 is a screw.

[0054] Alternatively, the mounting hole 21 can be a blind hole, and the connector is a rivet, with the rivet and the blind hole being interference-fitted together.

[0055] Optionally, the slot 31 provided on the second mounting member 30 is oriented towards the first mounting member 20. This facilitates the insertion of the refrigerant detection device 40 between the first mounting member 20 and the second mounting member 30.

[0056] Optionally, a plurality of first reinforcing ribs are provided around the first mounting member 20 in a circumferential manner, and the first reinforcing ribs are connected to the corner of the panel 11 and the first mounting member 20, thereby improving the structural stability of the first mounting member 20.

[0057] Alternatively, the first reinforcing rib may not be provided.

[0058] Optionally, a plurality of second reinforcing ribs are provided around the second mounting member 30 in a circumferentially spaced manner, and the second reinforcing ribs are connected to the corner of the panel 11 and the second mounting member 30, thereby improving the structural stability of the second mounting member 30.

[0059] Alternatively, a second reinforcing rib may not be provided.

[0060] By adopting the above technical solution, and by setting the first mounting component 20 and the second mounting component 30 on the panel 11, the refrigerant detection device 40 can be fixed in a defined position away from the indoor heat exchanger 51. This avoids interference with the detection results caused by high or low temperature environments, thereby improving the accuracy and timeliness of the detection. Specifically, the refrigerant detection device 40 is connected to the first mounting component 20 via a connector 23 and plugged into the second mounting component 30 to achieve installation on the panel 11. Since the panel 11 is located below the indoor heat exchanger 51 after the indoor unit is installed, the refrigerant detection device 40 is positioned below the indoor heat exchanger 51. This allows for quick and stable installation of the refrigerant detection device 40, while also enabling rapid detection of leaked and settled refrigerant, thus improving the safety of the indoor unit.

[0061] In the optional implementation of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, a heat exchange housing 50 and a refrigerant conduit 52 are also included. The heat exchange housing 50 is mounted on the panel 11, and an indoor heat exchanger 51 is disposed inside the heat exchange housing 50. One end of the refrigerant conduit 52 is disposed at the bottom of the heat exchange housing 50, and the other end of the refrigerant conduit 52 extends to the detection end of the refrigerant detection device 40.

[0062] The bottom of the heat exchange shell 50 is close to the panel 11. The heat exchange shell 50 encloses the indoor heat exchanger 51 within a space, separating it from the refrigerant detection device 40. This further reduces the impact of temperature changes on the detection results of the refrigerant detection device 40 and the device itself, while also preventing refrigerant from escaping. Furthermore, the refrigerant conduit 52 guides leaked refrigerant to the location of the refrigerant detection device 40 in a timely manner, enabling real-time monitoring of leaking refrigerant, quickly identifying abnormal refrigerant leaks while ensuring detection efficiency, thereby improving overall safety.

[0063] Optionally, the heat exchange housing 50 has a bottom shell plate arranged parallel to the panel 11, with the bottom shell plate spaced apart from the panel 11. This allows the bottom of the heat exchange housing 50 to be higher than the height of the refrigerant detection device 40. Furthermore, one end of the refrigerant conduit 52 at the bottom of the heat exchange housing 50 is higher than the end extending to the refrigerant detection device 40. This facilitates the flow of leaked and sinking refrigerant towards the refrigerant detection device 40 under gravity, ensuring timely detection of leaked refrigerant.

[0064] Optionally, the heat exchange housing 50 has an opening communicating with the indoor air outlet. Further, a ventilation duct is provided between the opening and the indoor air outlet to ensure airflow towards the indoor air outlet. In this design, the heat exchange housing 50 effectively isolates the operating environment of the indoor heat exchanger 51, ensuring the stability of the heat exchange temperature. Furthermore, the spacing design between it and the panel 11 optimizes the airflow organization inside the indoor unit, thereby improving overall heat exchange efficiency. In addition, the structural design of the heat exchange housing 50 prevents leaked refrigerant from escaping, ensuring that leaked refrigerant flows along the path defined by the refrigerant conduit 52 to the refrigerant detection device, thus improving the timeliness and speed of refrigerant leak detection and avoiding detection delays or errors caused by refrigerant diffusion.

[0065] Optionally, the other end of the refrigerant conduit 52 extends into the interior of the refrigerant detection device 40.

[0066] Optionally, the material and surface treatment of the refrigerant conduit 52 can be corrosion-resistant and anti-aging to ensure stable and reliable performance during long-term use.

[0067] Optionally, a sound-insulating layer may be wrapped around the refrigerant duct 52. The sound-insulating layer may be a sound-absorbing material, such as sound-absorbing cotton.

[0068] Optionally, when the indoor unit of the air conditioner is installed, the panel 11 is located below the heat exchange housing 50, and the detection end of the refrigerant detection device 40 is on the side facing away from the panel 11. Furthermore, one end of the refrigerant conduit 52 is positioned at the bottom of the heat exchange housing 50. This facilitates the detection of leaked and settling refrigerant in the indoor heat exchanger 51. That is, the leaked refrigerant, under the influence of gravity, settles downwards and gradually accumulates, then flows towards the refrigerant conduit 52 and gradually surrounds it. Under the influence of ambient air pressure, it can enter the refrigerant conduit 52. Furthermore, by setting the other end of the refrigerant conduit 52 to extend directly to the detection end of the refrigerant detection device 40, the leaked refrigerant can flow directly to the refrigerant detection device 40 under the influence of gravity, facilitating rapid detection of the leaked refrigerant.

[0069] Optionally, a drive element is provided inside the refrigerant conduit 52. Alternatively, a drive element is provided at the detection end of the refrigerant detection device 40. The drive element is configured to drive the flow of air inside the heat exchange housing 50 into the refrigerant conduit 52, so that the refrigerant detection device 40 can quickly detect leaking refrigerant.

[0070] Alternatively, the driving component may be a miniature fan, a miniature blower, or a miniature pump, etc.

[0071] In the optional implementation of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, the second mounting member 30 has a weight reduction groove 32 on the side opposite to the first mounting member 20.

[0072] By creating a weight-reducing groove 32 on the side of the second mounting member 30 opposite to the first mounting member 20, the overall weight can be reduced while ensuring structural strength.

[0073] Alternatively, the weight reduction groove 32 may not be provided.

[0074] In the optional implementation of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, a first support rib 61 is also included. The first support rib 61 is disposed between the first mounting member 20 and the second mounting member 30, and extends from the first mounting member 20 toward the second mounting member 30. The first support rib 61 is configured to abut against the first side of the refrigerant detection device 40.

[0075] The first support rib 61 provides additional support for the refrigerant detection device 40, enhancing its stability after installation.

[0076] Specifically, the first side of the refrigerant detection device 40 is the side facing the panel 11. By abutting against the first side, the first support rib 61 can provide a certain degree of support for the entire refrigerant detection device 40, thereby improving the safety and stability of the refrigerant detection device 40.

[0077] Optionally, the shape of the first support rib 61 can be straight, curved, or other shapes, which can be adjusted according to the actual spatial layout and stress requirements. The material of the first support rib 61 can be the same as that of the casing to ensure the consistency and strength of the overall structure.

[0078] Optionally, the first support rib 61 is integrally formed with the panel 11.

[0079] Alternatively, the first support rib 61 may not be provided.

[0080] In the optional embodiment of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, a second support rib 62 is also included. The second support rib 62 extends along the length direction of the first support rib 61 and is arranged at intervals from the first support rib 61. The second support rib 62 is configured to abut against the first side of the refrigerant detection device 40.

[0081] The second support rib 62 can further improve the stability of the refrigerant detection device 40 and distribute the stress. In conjunction with the first support rib 61, it can also effectively enhance the reliability of the overall structure. This not only improves the vibration resistance of the refrigerant detection device after installation, but also reduces the risk of damage caused by local stress concentration during long-term use, thereby ensuring that the refrigerant detection device maintains stability during operation and thus optimizing the detection effect.

[0082] Optionally, the shape of the second support rib 62 can be straight, curved, or other shapes, which can be adjusted according to the actual spatial layout and stress requirements. The material of the second support rib 62 can be the same as that of the casing to ensure the consistency and strength of the overall structure.

[0083] Optionally, the second support rib 62 is integrally formed with the panel 11.

[0084] Optionally, the surfaces of the first support rib 61 and / or the second support rib 62 may be provided with anti-slip structures, such as protrusions, grooves or textures, to increase the friction with the contact surface of the refrigerant detection device 40 and further improve the fixing effect.

[0085] Alternatively, the second support rib 62 may not be provided.

[0086] In the optional implementation of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, the first support rib 61 is fixedly connected to the second mounting component 30; and / or the second support rib 62 is fixedly connected to the second mounting component 30.

[0087] This further enhances the reliability and stability of the overall structure of panel 11, ensuring that the first support rib 61 and the second support rib 62 are not prone to loosening or bending damage during long-term use, reducing the risk of deformation of the installation parts due to vibration or external force, thereby extending the service life of the air conditioner indoor unit.

[0088] In the above-mentioned optional implementation scheme of the air conditioner indoor unit, combined with Figures 6 to 10 As shown, a fixed space is defined between the second support rib 62 and the first support rib 61; the air conditioner indoor unit also includes a magnetic suction assembly, which includes a first magnetic suction member 70 and a second magnetic suction member. The first magnetic suction member 70 is disposed in the fixed space; the second magnetic suction member is fixed to the first side of the refrigerant detection device 40, and the second magnetic suction member and the first magnetic suction member 70 attract each other.

[0089] The magnetic attachment further enhances the stability of the refrigerant detection device 40, making it more secure during operation and reducing the risk of displacement due to vibration or external forces. The magnetic attachment design not only improves installation convenience but also allows for quick disassembly for maintenance or replacement, significantly increasing operational efficiency.

[0090] In addition, the magnetic attachment allows for initial positioning of the refrigerant detection device 40 during installation, improving installation efficiency.

[0091] Optionally, the first magnetic element 70 is a magnetic plate or a magnetic block.

[0092] Optionally, the second magnetic element is fixed to the first side of the refrigerant detection device 40.

[0093] Alternatively, the second magnetic component can be installed on the first side of the refrigerant detection device 40 by means of adhesive or other methods.

[0094] Alternatively, the second magnetic element may be a magnetic particle or magnetic powder, which is formed on the first side of the refrigerant detection device 40 by coating.

[0095] In the optional implementation of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, the first support rib 61 is provided with a first mounting groove 611 extending along its own length direction; the second support rib 62 is provided with a second mounting groove 621 corresponding to the first mounting groove 611; the first magnetic member 70 has a mounting base 71, and the two ends of the mounting base 71 can be slidably inserted into the first mounting groove 611 and the second mounting groove 621 respectively.

[0096] The first mounting slot 611 and the second mounting slot 621 work together to enable the rapid installation and positioning of the first magnetic component 70, while ensuring its stability within a fixed space. The sliding insertion of the mounting base 71 optimizes the assembly process and improves installation flexibility, allowing the magnetic components to be adjusted or replaced according to actual needs.

[0097] Specifically, the first magnetic member 70 has a mounting base 71 and a magnetic body 72, and the two are fixedly connected.

[0098] Alternatively, the mounting base 71 and the magnetic body 72 can be detachably connected.

[0099] The first mounting groove 611 passes through the first support rib 61, and the second mounting groove 621 passes through the second support rib 62, so as to facilitate the insertion of the mounting base 71.

[0100] In the optional embodiment of the above-mentioned air conditioner indoor unit, the first mounting groove 611 has a first opening 6111, and the second mounting groove 621 has a second opening 6211 corresponding to the first opening 6111. The first opening 6111 and the second opening are for the mounting base 71 to be inserted. The side end of the first mounting groove 611 away from the first opening 6111 is provided with a first locking block 612, and the side end of the second mounting groove 621 away from the second opening is provided with a second locking block 622. The mounting base 71 is provided with a first locking groove 711 that cooperates with the first locking block 612, and a second locking groove 712 that cooperates with the second locking block 622.

[0101] The first opening 6111 and the second opening 6211 allow the mounting base 71 to be inserted. The cooperation between the first locking block 612 and the first locking slot 711, and the cooperation between the second locking block 622 and the second locking slot 712, ensures that the mounting base 71 is firmly locked after insertion, preventing loosening due to external force or vibration.

[0102] Specifically, the first mounting groove 611 has two groove walls parallel to and opposite to the panel 11, and at least one of the two groove walls is provided with a first locking block 612. Correspondingly, at least one of the two sides of the mounting base 71 facing the panel 11 and away from the panel 11 is provided with a first locking groove 711 corresponding to the first locking block 612.

[0103] The second mounting groove 621 has two groove walls parallel to and opposite to the panel 11, and at least one of the two groove walls is provided with a second locking block 622. Correspondingly, at least one of the two sides of the mounting base 71 facing the panel 11 and away from the panel 11 is provided with a first locking groove 712 corresponding to the first locking block 622.

[0104] Optionally, the first slot 711 and the second slot 712 are connected to form a through slot to improve the aesthetics of the appearance.

[0105] In a second aspect, this application provides a ceiling-mounted air conditioner, including: an indoor air conditioner unit as described above; and a refrigerant detection device 40, wherein a first side end 41 and a second side end 42 of the refrigerant detection device 40 are respectively provided with a first mounting ear 411 and a second mounting ear 421, the first mounting ear 411 being connected to a fixing hole 21, and the second mounting ear 421 being inserted into a slot 31.

[0106] By adopting the above technical solution, and by setting the first mounting member 20 and the second mounting member 30 on the panel 11, the refrigerant detection device 40 can be fixed in a defined position away from the indoor heat exchanger 51. This avoids interference with the detection results caused by high or low temperature environments, thereby improving the accuracy and timeliness of the detection.
