[0023] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0024] The air conditioner 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] like Figures 1-7As shown, the air conditioner 1 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes a housing 100, a fan wheel 82, a heat exchange component 81, and a sensor assembly 300.
[0026] The housing 100 is provided with a first air inlet 151 and a second air inlet 16. The first air inlet 151 is located on one side of the housing 100 in a first direction, and the second air inlet 16 is located on one side of the housing 100 in a second direction. The first direction and the second direction intersect.
[0027] The impeller 82 and the heat exchanger 81 are disposed inside the housing 100. The impeller 82 is used to drive air to flow from the first air inlet 151 and the second air inlet 16 into the housing 100. The sensor assembly 300 is disposed inside the housing 100 and is respectively disposed in correspondence with the first air inlet 151 and the second air inlet 16.
[0028] The impeller 82 is used to drive air from the air inlet of the air conditioner 1 to the air outlet. The air inlet includes a first air inlet 151 and a second air inlet 16. The heat exchanger 81 is disposed between the impeller 82 and the air inlet of the air conditioner 1. The heat exchanger 81 is used to cool or heat the air entering the casing 100 from the air inlet, thereby generating cold air or hot air. When the impeller 82 rotates and drives the cold air or hot air to flow from the air outlet to the designated area, it realizes the cooling or heating of the designated area.
[0029] The sensor assembly 300 is used to detect the air flowing through it, such as the temperature and humidity of the air, and then to determine the temperature and humidity of the indoor environment based on the temperature and humidity of the incoming air.
[0030] Specifically, the sensor assembly 300 is disposed corresponding to the first air inlet 151, so that when the airflow flows from the first air inlet 151 into the air conditioner 1 in the first direction, it will flow through the sensor assembly 300. The sensor assembly 300 is disposed corresponding to the second air inlet 16, so that when the airflow flows from the second air inlet 16 into the air conditioner 1 in the second direction, it will flow through the sensor assembly 300.
[0031] According to the embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner 1 is configured such that the sensor assembly 300 is respectively connected to the first air inlet 151 and the second air inlet 16. This facilitates increasing the airflow through the sensor assembly 300, enabling the sensor assembly 300 to detect the air entering from the first air inlet 151 and the air entering from the second air inlet 16. This improves the measurement accuracy of the sensor assembly 300 when measuring the temperature and humidity of the indoor air.
[0032] The air conditioner 1 according to a specific embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0033] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 1-7 As shown, the air conditioner 1 includes a housing 100, a fan wheel 82, a heat exchanger 81, and a sensor assembly 300.
[0034] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the front panel of the housing 100 is provided with a first air inlet 151, the top wall of the housing 100 is provided with a second air inlet 16, and the sensor assembly 300 is located on the rear side of the front panel.
[0035] Specifically, the air entering the first air inlet 151 from the front panel is adapted to flow in a front-to-back direction, and the air entering from the top wall of the housing 100 is adapted to flow in a top-to-bottom direction. The sensor assembly 300 is located on the rear side of the front panel, and at the same time, the sensor assembly 300 is inside the housing 100, located below the top wall of the housing 100. Therefore, both the front-to-back and top-to-bottom airflows will pass through the sensor assembly 300 to increase the airflow rate through the sensor assembly 300, so that the air can flow fully through the sensor assembly 300, thereby improving the measurement accuracy of the sensor assembly 300.
[0036] Some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 12 As shown, the sensor assembly 300 includes a first sensor 31 and a second sensor 32. One of the first sensor 31 and the second sensor 32 is used to measure air temperature, and the other of the first sensor 31 and the second sensor 32 is used to measure air humidity. The airflow can fully pass through the first sensor 31 and the second sensor 32 from the second air inlet 16 above the housing 100 and the first air inlet 151 in front of the housing 100, so that the sensor assembly 300 can accurately detect indoor temperature and humidity. This technical solution has the advantages of better detection accuracy and greater accuracy.
[0037] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 , Figure 6 As shown, the front panel is provided with a first air intake grille 15, which defines a first air intake section 151. Air from the front of the air conditioner 1 is suitable to enter the air conditioner 1 through the first air intake grille 15. The first air intake grille 15 can refine the air entering the air conditioner 1 from the first air intake section 151, and can also cover the internal parts and structure of the air conditioner 1, making the air conditioner 1 look cleaner and more beautiful.
[0038] Furthermore, by providing a first air intake grille 15 on the front side of the housing 100, compared to a solid front panel design, this invention adds a ventilation path at the front of the housing 100, utilizing the front panel of the air conditioner 1 for air intake, thereby enhancing the functionality of the front panel of the air conditioner 1. While utilizing the first air intake grille 15 for air intake, a second air intake section 16 is also provided on the top wall of the air conditioner 1, which increases the air intake volume of the air conditioner 1 and helps improve the heat exchange efficiency of the air conditioner 1.
[0039] Setting up the first air intake grille 15 can prevent users from putting their hands into the housing 100 through the first air intake grille 15, so as to facilitate the installation and subsequent maintenance of the air conditioner 1 and other operations that require contact with the air conditioner 1, which helps to reduce the impact on the internal structure of the housing 100 during operation.
[0040] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 , Figure 8 As shown, the first air inlet grille 15 includes a plurality of first grille bars 152 arranged in the vertical direction, and a first air inlet channel 1511 is defined between adjacent first grille bars 152. The first air inlet portion 151 includes a plurality of first air inlet channels 1511, and the air outlet end of the first grille bar 152 is lower than the air inlet end of the first grille bar 152.
[0041] The first air intake grille 15 includes first grille bars 152 spaced apart in a vertical direction. A first air intake channel 1511 is defined between two adjacent first grille bars 152, and airflow flows into the housing 100 along the first air intake channel 1511. The first air intake grille 15 is located on the front side of the housing 100, and airflow flows into the housing 100 from front to back through the first air intake grille 15. Therefore, the air intake end of the first grille bar 152 is located in front of the air outlet end of the first grille bar 152.
[0042] The air outlet end of the first grille 152 is lower than the air inlet end of the first grille 152. The air outlet end of the first grille 152, located at the rear, extends downwards. From a front-to-back visual perspective, the air outlet end of the first grille 152 blocks the rear end of the first air inlet channel 1511. This air outlet end of the first grille 152 can conceal the rear structure of the first grille 152, improving the appearance and reducing the impact of exposed internal structures. Simultaneously, because the air outlet end of the first grille 152 is lower than the air inlet end, the airflow can flow more quickly into the casing 100 after passing through the first air inlet channel 1511, resulting in higher air intake efficiency and increasing the air volume of the air conditioner 1.
[0043] In some examples, a portion of the first grille 152 bends downward and backward so that the air outlet end of the first grille 152 is lower than the air inlet end of the first grille 152.
[0044] In some examples, the air outlet of the first grid bar 152 is located behind the air inlet of the first grid bar 152. A portion of the first grid bar 152 bends and extends downward and backward, so that the air outlet of the first grid bar 152 is lower than the air inlet of the first grid bar 152. The downward and backward bending of the portion of the first grid bar 152 can smoothly guide the airflow to the air outlet, which is beneficial to increasing the air intake volume.
[0045] In some examples, the portion of the first grille 152 near the air inlet extends horizontally, while the portion near the air outlet bends downwards and backwards. This facilitates rapid airflow into the first air inlet channel 1511 and allows for quick guidance of the airflow into the housing 100, thereby improving airflow efficiency.
[0046] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the front panel has an air outlet grille 12 located below the first air inlet grille 15. Airflow is guided by the air outlet grille 12 before exiting, reducing turbulence and improving airflow stability. Furthermore, by using the air outlet grille 12 for airflow distribution, compared to placing an air outlet below a solid panel, the air outlet grille 12 provides better airflow guidance, thus improving the airflow performance of the air conditioner 1. For example, the air outlet grille 12 can guide airflow upwards, increasing the forward airflow distance and expanding the airflow coverage area, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the air conditioner 1. Also for example, the air outlet grille 12 can guide airflow downwards, pressing the airflow down to avoid the human body and reducing the discomfort of direct airflow. Furthermore, for example, the air outlet grille 12 can guide airflow to the left and right, thereby increasing the left-right airflow coverage area of the air conditioner 1.
[0047] Similarly, by setting the air outlet grille 12, users can be prevented from putting their hands into the housing 100 through the air outlet grille 12, so as to facilitate the installation and subsequent maintenance of the air conditioner 1 and other operations that require contact with the air conditioner 1, which helps to reduce the impact on the internal structure of the housing 100 during operation.
[0048] In some embodiments, the air outlet grille 12 includes a plurality of second grilles 121 spaced apart in the vertical direction, and at least a portion of the upper surface and / or lower surface of the second grilles 121 are formed as a first air guide surface extending obliquely forward and upward.
[0049] Airflow exits through the air outlet grille 12, which includes multiple second grilles 121 spaced apart vertically. These second grilles guide the airflow. A first air guide surface extends forward and upward at an angle, directing the airflow forward and upward. This increases the forward airflow distance, expands the airflow coverage, and thus improves the heat exchange efficiency of the air conditioner 1. Furthermore, when the air conditioner 1 is cooling, by directing the airflow forward and upward, cold air can be transported over long distances, allowing it to naturally sink from top to bottom, reducing the discomfort caused by direct cold air blowing on the body and improving the heat exchange effect.
[0050] Optionally, at least a portion of the upper surface of the second grid bar 121 is formed as a first air guiding surface, or at least a portion of the lower surface of the second grid bar 121 is formed as a first air guiding surface, or at least a portion of the upper surface of the second grid bar 121 is formed as a first air guiding surface, and at least a portion of the lower surface of the second grid bar 121 is formed as a first air guiding surface.
[0051] The entire upper surface of the second grid bar 121 is formed as a first air guiding surface, and the portion of the lower surface of the second grid bar 121 near the air outlet end of the second grid bar 121 is also formed as a first air guiding surface, while the portion of the lower surface of the second grid bar 121 near the air inlet end of the second grid bar 121 extends horizontally. Both the upper and lower surfaces of the second grid bar 121 have first air guiding surfaces, resulting in better airflow guidance.
[0052] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the front panel is also provided with a blocking part 17 located between the first air intake grille 15 and the air outlet grille 12. The first air intake grille 15, the blocking part 17 and the air outlet grille 12 are an integral piece.
[0053] The first air intake grille 15, the blocking part 17, and the air outlet grille 12 are formed into a front grille 102, making the first air intake grille 15, the blocking part 17, and the air outlet grille 12 an integral part. This can improve the overall integrity of the front grille 102. Furthermore, the fact that the blocking part 17, the first air intake grille 15, and the air outlet grille 12 are integrally formed can also improve the structural stability of the front grille 102, reduce the shaking caused by airflow impact, and help reduce airflow noise.
[0054] The first air intake grille 15, the blocking part 17, and the air outlet grille 12 are integrally formed to form the front grille 102. From top to bottom, the first air intake grille 15, the blocking part 17, and the air outlet grille 12 are arranged in sequence. The first air intake grille 15 includes a plurality of first grille bars 152 arranged in the vertical direction. The blocking part 17 includes a plurality of third grille bars 171 arranged in the vertical direction. The air outlet grille 12 includes a plurality of second grille bars 121 arranged in the vertical direction. The spacing between the first grille bar 152 at the bottom of the first air intake grille 15 and the third grille bar 171 at the top of the blocking part 17 is similar to the spacing between two adjacent first grille bars 152. The spacing between the second grille bar 121 at the top of the air outlet grille 12 and the third grille bar 171 at the bottom of the blocking part 17 is similar to the spacing between two adjacent second grille bars 121. This further improves the overall integrity of the first air intake grille 15, the blocking part 17, and the air outlet grille 12.
[0055] Specifically, the first air intake grille 15, the blocking part 17 and the air outlet grille 12 are integrated to form the front grille 102, which has the characteristics of higher air intake efficiency, larger air volume and lower noise.
[0056] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first air intake grille 15 is rotatably disposed outside the housing 100 to expose or cover the sensor assembly 300.
[0057] When the first air intake grille 15 covers the sensor assembly 300, the first air intake grille 15 covers the front side of the housing 100 and defines the first air intake 151. When the first air intake grille 15 rotates to expose the sensor assembly 300, the first air intake grille 15 rotates to the position where the front side of the housing 100 is opened. This makes it convenient to adjust and clean the components inside the housing 100 from the front side of the housing 100. For example, it is convenient to clean the dust on the sensor assembly 300 to ensure the measurement accuracy of the sensor assembly 300, or to remove the filter of the air conditioner 1 from the front side of the housing 100.
[0058] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 4 , Figure 11 As shown, the air conditioner 1 also includes a display component 400, and the sensor component 300 is electrically connected to the display component 400. The display component 400 is located on the third-direction side of the first air inlet 151, and the first direction, the second direction and the third direction are perpendicular to each other.
[0059] By setting up the display component 400, the operating information of the air conditioner 1 can be displayed intuitively on the display component 400, or the detection results of the sensor component 300, such as indoor temperature and indoor humidity, can be observed on the display component 400, thereby improving the functionality of the air conditioner 1.
[0060] In some embodiments, the display component 400 and the first air intake grille 15 are arranged side by side in the third direction. Compared with the display component 400 and the first air intake grille 15 being arranged vertically, the size of the air conditioner 1 in the vertical direction can be reduced, which facilitates the arrangement of the air conditioner 1.
[0061] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 11-14 As shown, the display assembly 400 includes a housing 41, a display part 42, and a display panel 43. The housing 41 includes a first part 411, which defines a first chamber 4111. The display part 42 is disposed in the first chamber 4111, and the display panel 43 is supported on the housing 41 and is disposed at least directly opposite to the display part 42.
[0062] Specifically, users can observe the data displayed on the display unit 42 from the display panel 43 side, such as indoor temperature, indoor humidity, and the operating status of the air conditioner 1.
[0063] The housing 41 includes a second part 412, which defines a second chamber 4121. The second chamber 4121 is located on the third-direction side of the first chamber 4111. The sensor assembly 300 is disposed in the second chamber 4121, so that the second chamber 4121 is located on the third-direction side of the first chamber 4111. After the display assembly 400 is disposed on the third-direction side of the first air inlet 151, the second chamber 4121 can extend along the third direction to the rear side of the first air inlet 151, thereby placing the sensor assembly 300 on the rear side of the first air inlet 151. This allows air at the first air inlet 151 to flow through the sensor assembly 300, thereby increasing the airflow through the sensor assembly 300 and enabling the sensor assembly 300 to accurately measure indoor air information, such as indoor air temperature and indoor air humidity.
[0064] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 7 , Figure 12 , Figure 14 As shown, the second chamber 4121 has a first vent 4131 on the side facing the first air inlet 151 in the first direction. The first vent 4131 connects the second chamber 4121 and the first air inlet 151. When air enters the air conditioner 1 from the first air inlet 151, some air can enter the second chamber 4121 through the first vent 4131 so that some air can flow through the sensor assembly 300.
[0065] The second chamber 4121 has a second vent 4132 on the side facing away from the first air inlet 151 in the first direction. The second vent 4132 connects the second chamber 4121 and the second air inlet 16. When air enters the air conditioner 1 from the second air inlet 16, some air can enter the second chamber 4121 through the second vent 4132 so that some air can flow through the sensor assembly 300.
[0066] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, when air enters the air conditioner 1 from the first air inlet 151, some air can enter the second chamber 4121 through the first vent 4131, and then flow to the impeller 82 through the second vent 4132.
[0067] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the bottom wall of the second chamber 4121 is provided with a second vent 4132, and the side wall of the second chamber 4121 is provided with a third vent. When air enters the air conditioner 1 from the second air inlet 16, some air can enter the second chamber 4121 through the second vent 4132 and then flow out through the third vent.
[0068] In some embodiments of this utility model, a filter screen is provided between the impeller 82 and the first air inlet 151 and the second air inlet 16. The filter screen is used to filter various suspended particulate matter in the air entering the air conditioner 1 from the first air inlet 151 and the second air inlet 16, so that the air entering the air conditioner 1 is clean air, thereby avoiding contamination of the components inside the air conditioner 1 and ensuring the cleanliness of the air outlet of the air conditioner 1.
[0069] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the housing 100 is provided with a guide rail 18 extending circumferentially along the impeller 82. The filter screen is supported on the guide rail 18. The guide rail 18 is used to support the filter screen so that the filter screen can be held between the impeller 82 and the first air inlet 151 and the second air inlet 16, so that the filter screen can play the role of filtering air.
[0070] In some embodiments, the filter screen is slidably engaged with the guide rail 18, and the filter screen covers the first air inlet 151 on the front side of the housing 100 and the second air inlet 16 on the top of the housing 100.
[0071] In some embodiments, the first air inlet grille 15 is rotatably disposed on the housing 100 to expose or cover the filter screen. When the first air inlet grille 15 covers the filter screen, the first air inlet grille 15 covers the front side of the housing 100 and defines the first air inlet portion 151. When the first air inlet grille 15 is rotated to expose the filter screen, the first air inlet grille 15 rotates to a position where the front side of the housing 100 is opened, which facilitates the adjustment and cleaning of the filter screen from the front side of the housing 100.
[0072] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 As shown, in the first direction, the guide rail 18 is located between the sensor assembly 300 and the impeller 82, so that the air flows through the sensor assembly 300 and then flows to the filter, thereby ensuring timely contact between the sensor assembly 300 and the air, which facilitates the improvement of the accuracy of the sensor assembly 300 in measuring the air, such as improving the accuracy of the sensor assembly 300 in measuring indoor temperature and indoor humidity.
[0073] A filter screen is installed between the guide rail 18 and the sensor assembly 300. The guide rail 18 supports the filter screen and limits the installation and removal direction of the filter screen, which can more effectively prevent interference and inconvenience when inserting or removing the filter screen.
[0074] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 , Figure 9 As shown, the housing 100 is provided with a bottom air outlet 11. Driven by the impeller 82, the air conditioner 1 is adapted to discharge air downwards through the bottom air outlet 11. The air conditioner 1 also includes an air guide plate 21, which is used to open or close the bottom air outlet 11.
[0075] Specifically, when air needs to be vented from the bottom air outlet 11, the air guide plate 21 opens the bottom air outlet 11, and when air does not need to be vented from the bottom air outlet 11, the air guide plate 21 closes the bottom air outlet 11. This helps to reduce the possibility of indoor dust entering the bottom air outlet 11 and prevents the air conditioner 1 from blowing out air with excessive dust content, which could affect the user's respiratory health.
[0076] When the air conditioner 1 blows out hot air to heat a designated area, the air conditioner 1 is adapted to blow air downward through the bottom air outlet 11. Since hot air has a lower density and tends to rise, the air conditioner 1 blows air downward through the bottom air outlet 11, which effectively achieves the effect of the heating airflow blowing downward toward the bottom air outlet 11. This solves the problem of poor downward airflow effect in traditional wall-mounted air conditioners, and improves the effect of warming feet, increasing the temperature rise rate, and improving the uniformity of heating stratification.
[0077] When the air conditioner 1 blows out cold air to cool a designated area, the air conditioner 1 can blow air forward through the air outlet grille 12, which can avoid the cold air blowing directly on the user and improve the user's comfort.
[0078] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 As shown, the air conditioner 1 also includes a drive assembly and a first swing arm assembly 51. One end of the first swing arm assembly 51 is engaged with the drive assembly, and the other end is engaged with the air guide plate 21. The drive assembly is used to drive the first swing arm assembly 51 to swing, so that the first swing arm assembly 51 drives the air guide plate 21 to move.
[0079] The first rocker arm assembly 51 includes a rocker arm or multiple rocker arms that are movably connected, without further restrictions.
[0080] Specifically, when the drive assembly drives the first swing arm assembly 51 to rotate, the first swing arm assembly 51 drives the air guide plate 21 to swing, so that the air guide plate 21 can swing between the position of closing the bottom air outlet 11 and the position of opening the bottom air outlet 11.
[0081] Since the first swing arm assembly 51 is adapted to drive the air guide plate 21 to swing, the swing center axis of the air guide plate 21 coincides with the rotation center axis of the first swing arm assembly 51. Thus, by controlling the distance between the rotation center axis of the first swing arm assembly 51 and the air guide plate 21, the position of the swing center axis of the air guide plate 21 can be flexibly adjusted. For example, by making the distance between the air guide plate 21 and the rotation center axis of the first swing arm assembly 51 larger, the swing radius of the air guide plate 21 can be set larger, thereby increasing the swing range of the air guide plate 21. This allows the air guide plate 21 to swing to a position outside the housing 100 and at least partially offset from the bottom air outlet 11. When the air guide plate 21 opens the bottom air outlet 11, the obstruction area of the bottom air outlet 11 by the air guide plate 21 can be reduced, decreasing the wind resistance at the bottom air outlet 11. This facilitates increasing the air volume output of the air conditioner 1 at the bottom air outlet 11, achieving a large air volume output from the air conditioner 1 at the bottom air outlet 11.
[0082] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 As shown, the air conditioner 1 also includes a second swing arm assembly 52. One end of the second swing arm assembly 52 is rotatably connected to the housing 100, and the other end of the second swing arm assembly 52 is rotatably connected to the air guide plate 21. The first swing arm assembly 51 and the second swing arm assembly 52 are arranged at intervals along the length of the air guide plate 21.
[0083] The second swing arm assembly 52 is used to support the swing of the air guide plate 21, thereby enabling the air guide plate 21 to swing stably to open or close the bottom air outlet 11.
[0084] Specifically, when the drive assembly drives the first swing arm assembly 51 to rotate, the first swing arm assembly 51 is adapted to drive the air guide plate 21 to swing. At this time, the air guide plate 21 rotates relative to the second swing arm assembly 52, and drives the second swing arm assembly 52 to rotate relative to the housing 100, so that the second swing arm assembly 52 adapts to the movement trajectory of the air guide plate 21 and plays a role in stabilizing and supporting the air guide plate 21.
[0085] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, the air guide plate 21 has a double-layer hollow structure, which facilitates the air guide plate 21 to have better strength and thermal insulation. Furthermore, when the air guide plate 21 closes the bottom air outlet 11, the possibility of air leakage at the bottom air outlet 11 is reduced.
[0086] In other embodiments, the air guide plate 21 has a single-layer structure, which makes it easier to reduce the weight of the air guide plate 21 and thus reduce the load on the drive components.
[0087] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, a swing blade is also provided between the impeller 82 and the bottom air outlet 11. The swing blade is adapted to swing to change the airflow direction at the bottom air outlet 11, thereby changing the air outlet direction of the air conditioner 1. For example, the swing blade is adapted to swing to the left or right so that the air conditioner 1 can outlet air to the left or right.
