[0018] Embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below; examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and serve to illustrate the present utility model, but should not be interpreted as limiting it.

[0019] The indoor air conditioning unit of the embodiments of the present utility model can be a wall-mounted indoor unit and is equipped with an air inlet 4 and an air outlet 3 arranged above the air inlet 4. For example, as in Fig. As shown in Figure 1, the air inlet 4 may be located on the underside of the air conditioning unit and the air outlet 3 may be located on the top front of the air conditioning unit.

[0020] As in Fig. As shown in Figure 1, the air conditioning system according to an embodiment of the present utility model comprises a grille 1 and an evaporator 2. The grille 1 can be in the form of a flat plate, the grille 1 can be arranged on the front of the evaporator 2 and, after the air conditioning system is installed, can face outwards, thus ensuring the appearance of the air conditioning system.

[0021] The evaporator 2 comprises a first component 21 and a second component 22, wherein these two components are arranged at an angle to each other and the joint 23 between the first component 21 and the second component 22 projects towards the air inlet 4. For example, the evaporator 2 can be, as in Fig. As shown in Figure 1, the evaporator 2 is provided in split form, with the evaporator 2 being divided into two parts according to different extension directions, namely a first component 21 and a second component 22. Both the first component 21 and the second component 22 can be essentially flat plate structures; the first component 21 can generally be inclined in a direction from front top to back bottom, while the second component 22 is generally inclined along a direction from top back to bottom front.

[0022] The lower end of the first component 21 and the lower end of the second component 22 can overlap or abut each other, with the junction between the lower end of the first component 21 and the lower end of the second component 22 forming a joint 23 between the two components. Specifically, the first component 21 and the second component 22 are generally V-shaped, and the joint 23 between the first component 21 and the second component 22 can project downwards, and the joint 23 can be located directly above the air inlet 4.

[0023] The first component 21 is located between aperture 1 and the second component 22, with a lower limit of the distance k between the first component 21 and aperture 1 being between 10 mm and 30 mm. For example, as in Fig. As shown in Figure 1, aperture 1 is provided on the front of the first component 21, and aperture 1 and the first component 21 as a whole can be spaced apart from each other. The second component 22 can, in principle, be arranged on the back of the first component 21.

[0024] The distance k can be considered as the distance between the first component 21 and the aperture 1 in the front-to-back direction, and the lower limit of the distance k is the minimum distance between the first component 21 and the aperture 1 in the front-to-back direction. The distance k can specifically be 10 mm, 11 mm, 15 mm, 18 mm, 19 mm, 20 mm, 21 mm, 22 mm, 25 mm, 28 mm, 30 mm, or the like.

[0025] In some embodiments, the angle α between the first component 21 and the aperture 1 is in a range of 5 degrees to 40 degrees. For example, the angle α can specifically be the angle formed between the front surface of the first component 21 and the front outer surface of the aperture 1; the angle α can specifically be 5 degrees, 8 degrees, 10 degrees, 11 degrees, 14 degrees, 18 degrees, 20 degrees, 22 degrees, 25 degrees, 28 degrees, 30 degrees, 35 degrees, 38 degrees, 40 degrees, or the like.

[0026] In some embodiments, the angle b formed by the first component 21 with the vertical direction is provided for to be between 5 degrees and 60 degrees. For example, the angle b can be, as in Fig. 1 shown, 5 degrees, 8 degrees, 10 degrees, 15 degrees, 20 degrees, 25 degrees, 30 degrees, 35 degrees, 40 degrees, 45 degrees, 50 degrees, 55 degrees, 58 degrees, 60 degrees or the like.

[0027] In the air conditioner according to one embodiment of the present utility model, the evaporator 2 is arranged in a dual configuration. While ensuring sufficient air volume, the internal structure of the air conditioner can be relatively simple, and the air circulation path is short and direct. This allows for a relatively large space for air circulation, preventing the interior from becoming too cramped due to a complex structure and thus avoiding any impairment of air supply. Furthermore, it reduces the potential for dust accumulation, lowers overall wind resistance and the workload of the fan, and improves the energy efficiency of the air conditioner and reduces operating costs for the user. In this way, the air volume can be increased and noise levels reduced.

[0028] Secondly, due to the simpler overall structure of the evaporator 2, the airflow can flow evenly through different parts of the evaporator 2, thus avoiding dead corners in a complex structure and also avoiding the situation where insufficient heat exchange in certain areas of the evaporator 2 impairs the overall performance of the air conditioner.

[0029] Furthermore, by limiting the distance between the first component 21 of the evaporator 2 and the aperture 1 within the aforementioned area, the overall structure of the indoor air conditioning unit can be made more compact, thus requiring less space, and the airflow in the air conditioning unit can be more uniform, thereby facilitating air circulation into the first component 21, thus improving the overall air circulation effect and further increasing user comfort.

[0030] In some embodiments, the distance k decreases in the direction away from the joint 23. For example, as in Fig. As shown in Figure 1, the distance k gradually decreases in one direction from bottom to top, that is, it gradually decreases in the direction away from the air inlet 4. Thus, the size of the distance k can be adjusted to the reduced air volume between the first component 21 and the aperture 1. While ensuring uniform heat exchange in all parts and uniform air circulation, it is advantageous to reduce the overall size and achieve a compact arrangement.

[0031] In some embodiments, the first component 21 has a first end 211 and a second end 212 opposite each other, with the second end 212 being located at the joint 23, and the distance k between the first end 211 and the aperture 1 assumes a lower limit.

[0032] For example, as in Fig. As shown in Figure 1, the first component 21 is generally arranged in an inclined direction from front to top. The first end 211 can be the upper end section of the first component 21, and the second end 212 can be the lower end section of the first component 21. The second end 212 can overlap or abut the lower end section of the second component 22, thereby forming the joint 23 mentioned above.

[0033] The distance k mentioned above assumes a minimum value between the first end 211 and the aperture 1, thereby fulfilling the usage requirements of heat transfer with air supply from above and improving the compactness of the overall assembly of structural components such as the evaporator 2 and the aperture 1.

[0034] In some embodiments, the angle α between the first component 21 and the aperture 1 is in a range of 10 degrees to 30 degrees. For example, the angle α can specifically be the angle formed between the front surface of the first component 21 and the front outer surface of the aperture 1; the angle α can specifically be 10 degrees, 11 degrees, 14 degrees, 18 degrees, 20 degrees, 22 degrees, 25 degrees, 28 degrees, 30 degrees, or the like.

[0035] Thus, sufficient space for airflow can be maintained between aperture 1 and the first component 21. If angle b lies within the aforementioned range, air from the lower air inlet 4 can easily enter the first component 21 at a relatively shallow angle.

[0036] In some embodiments, the angle b formed by the first component 21 with the vertical direction is between 10 and 55 degrees. For example, the angle b can be, as in Fig. 1 shown, 10 degrees, 15 degrees, 20 degrees, 25 degrees, 30 degrees, 35 degrees, 40 degrees, 45 degrees, 50 degrees, 55 degrees or the like.

[0037] After the alignment angle of the first component 21 has been determined, it is therefore advantageous to determine the tilt angle of the aperture 1 according to the alignment angle of the first component 21, thereby improving the ease of assembly and arrangement.

[0038] In some embodiments, the upper limit of the distance k between the aperture 1 and the first component 21 is 30 mm to 100 mm. For example, as in Fig. Figure 1 shows that the distance k can be considered as the maximum distance between the aperture 1 and the first component 21 in the front-back direction, specifically as the distance between the second end 212 of the first component 21 and the aperture 1 in the front-back direction. The distance k can specifically be 30 mm, 35 mm, 40 mm, 45 mm, 50 mm, 55 mm, 60 mm, 65 mm, 70 mm, 75 mm, 80 mm, 90 mm, 95 mm, 100 mm or the like.

[0039] The distance k and the angle a can be arranged in combination. If the distance k and the angle a are within the range mentioned above, the air from the lower air inlet 4 can enter the air inlet gap between the first component 21 and the aperture 1 at a relatively shallow angle, resulting in a relatively uniform airflow distribution on the surface of the first component 21. This allows the evaporator 2 to perform a complete heat exchange with the air, ensuring the heat exchange efficiency of the evaporator 2 and thus improving the cooling or heating effect of the air conditioner.

[0040] In some embodiments, the first component 21 comprises a first section 213 and a second section 214 arranged at an angle to each other, wherein the second section 214 adjoins the joint 23, and wherein the connection point between the first section 213 and the second section 214 projects towards the aperture 1.

[0041] For example, as in Fig. As shown in Figure 2, the first component 21 is provided in split form. The first component 21 can comprise two independent parts, which can be a first section 213 and a second section 214. The first section 213 and the second section 214 can each be inclined in a direction from front top to rear bottom. The angle of inclination of the first section 213 is greater than the angle of inclination of the second section 214. The lower end of the first section 213 and the upper end of the second section 214 can directly abut each other to form a connection point, and the connection point can project forward.

[0042] This allows the first component 21 to be bent towards the inside of the air conditioning unit, thereby reducing the overall size of the first component 21 in the front-to-back direction to a certain extent. Secondly, it also facilitates processing and production and contributes to improved flexibility in fine-tuning the mounting angle during assembly; that is, the overall mounting angle can be fine-tuned by adjusting the angle between the first section 213 and the second section 214.

[0043] In some embodiments, the angle c between the first section 213 and the second section 214 is between 140 and 180 degrees. For example, as shown in the figure, the angle c can be 140 degrees, 145 degrees, 150 degrees, 155 degrees, 160 degrees, 165 degrees, 170 degrees, 175 degrees, 180 degrees, or the like.

[0044] The angle c lies within the aforementioned angular range. On the one hand, the first component 21, formed from the first section 213 and the second section 214, can be designed to be relatively flat overall. This helps to simplify the overall structural complexity, avoid dead corners for heat exchange, and ensure the uniformity of heat exchange in every part. On the other hand, the design requirement to fine-tune the angular deflection of the first component 21 is also met.

[0045] In some embodiments, the angle d between the first section 213 and the aperture 1 is between 10 degrees and 45 degrees. As in Fig. As shown in Figure 2, the angle d can specifically be the angle formed by the front surface of the first section 213 and the front surface of the aperture 1. The angle d can specifically be 10 degrees, 15 degrees, 20 degrees, 25 degrees, 30 degrees, 35 degrees, 40 degrees, 45 degrees, or the like.

[0046] If the angle d is within the above-mentioned angular range, a sufficient air inlet gap can be maintained between the first section 213 and the aperture 1, ensuring that the air can flow relatively evenly and stably to the first section 213, thus ensuring the heat exchange efficiency and uniformity of the first section 213.

[0047] In some embodiments, the angle e formed by the first component 21 and the second component 22 is between 55 and 90 degrees. For example, the angle e can be, as in Fig. Figure 1 shows that the angle e is specifically formed by the rear surface of the first component 21 and the front surface of the second component 22. The angle e can be specifically 55 degrees, 60 degrees, 65 degrees, 70 degrees, 75 degrees, 80 degrees, 85 degrees, 90 degrees, or the like.

[0048] The angle e lies within the aforementioned range, allowing air to easily enter and exit the evaporator 2 for heat exchange, while simultaneously enabling gravity to drain the condensate along the evaporator 2. The drainage function of the evaporator 2 reduces the risk of water leaks in the air conditioning system, and the base of the evaporator 2 can be equipped with a water collection disc 5 to collect the condensate.

[0049] In some embodiments, the air conditioning system includes a water collection disc 5, as shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. Figure 2 shows the water collection disc 5, which is located below the joint 23. This allows liquids, such as condensation, that have accumulated at the joint 23 to be stored in the water collection disc 5, thus enabling the collection of the condensation.

[0050] In some embodiments, the air conditioning system is provided to further include a base 6 which can be arranged on the rear of the evaporator 2, as shown in Fig. 1 shown, wherein the upper end section of the second component 22 can be in contact with the corresponding inner wall surface of the base 6, and an air inlet gap can also be provided between the base 6 and the second component 22, thereby facilitating the airflow through the second component 22 for heat exchange.

[0051] The air conditioning system is described below according to an embodiment of the present utility model.

[0052] The air conditioning system according to one embodiment of the present utility model comprises an air conditioner, and the air conditioner may be one of the air conditioners described in any of the embodiments described above; specifically, the air conditioner may be a wall-mounted indoor air conditioner. The air conditioning system may also include devices such as an outdoor air conditioner.

[0053] Although the above embodiments have been shown and described, it is understood that these embodiments serve only for illustration and are not to be understood as a limitation of the present utility model, whereby changes, modifications, replacements and variations of the above embodiments made by persons skilled in the art in this field are all within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
