Detailed Implementation

[0066] The embodiments of this application 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 intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0067] An air conditioner 1000 according to an embodiment of this application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0068] According to an embodiment of this application, the air conditioner 1000 includes: a top air outlet component 101, which includes an upper air outlet frame 1 and an air guide component 2. A first air outlet 1a is formed on the top of the upper air outlet frame 1. The air guide component 2 is disposed on the upper air outlet frame 1 and is used to open and close the first air outlet 1a.

[0069] According to the air conditioner 1000 of this application, by providing a top air outlet component 101, air can be vented from the top of the air conditioner 1000, which is beneficial to increasing the air supply range and air supply height.

[0070] According to the embodiments of this application, the top air outlet component 101, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, includes an upper air outlet frame 1 and an air guide assembly 2. A first air outlet 1a is formed on the top of the upper air outlet frame 1. The air guide assembly 2 is disposed on the upper air outlet frame 1 and includes a first air guide 21 and a second air guide 22. As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the first air guide 21 is movably disposed at the first air outlet 1a to open and close the first air outlet 1a. A second air outlet 211 is formed on the first air guide 21. The second air guide 22 is movably disposed at the second air outlet 211 to open and close the second air outlet 211.

[0071] The top-mounted air outlet component 101 of this application embodiment is used in an air supply device and is disposed at the top of the air supply device. By providing the top-mounted air outlet component 101 of this application embodiment, the air supply distance of the air supply device can be increased, and the air supply range of the air supply device can be improved. Exemplarily, the air supply device includes, but is not limited to, various types of air conditioners, such as wall-mounted air conditioners, floor-standing air conditioners, portable air conditioners, window air conditioners, fresh air units, ducted air conditioners, etc.

[0072] The first air outlet 1a is formed at the top of the upper air outlet frame 1. Airflow from the first air outlet 1a at the top can increase the air supply range. The first air guide 21 is movably disposed at the first air outlet 1a to open and close the first air outlet 1a. When the first air guide 21 opens the first air outlet 1a, airflow can be sent out from the first air outlet 1a; when the first air guide 21 blocks the first air outlet 1a, the first air guide 21 prevents airflow from the first air outlet 1a.

[0073] The opening degree of the first air guide 21 directly affects the air outlet effect of the first air outlet 1a. Taking the rotation of the first air guide 21 relative to the first air outlet 1a as an example, a larger rotation angle results in a larger outflow cross-sectional area, which is beneficial for increasing the air volume. Conversely, a smaller rotation angle results in a smaller outflow cross-sectional area, leading to a corresponding decrease in air volume. While an excessively large rotation angle can increase air volume, it also causes an excessively large stroke, reducing stability. Furthermore, the first air guide occupies external space, increasing the volume of the top-outlet component. Therefore, both excessively large and excessively small openings of the first air guide are detrimental to the operation of the top-outlet component.

[0074] It is worth noting that the first air guide 21 is movably disposed at the first air outlet 1a. The first air guide 21 is at least partially located on the airflow path of the first air outlet 1a. Therefore, regardless of the size of the opening of the first air guide 21, it will cause some obstruction to the airflow of the first air outlet 1a.

[0075] In this embodiment, the top-outlet air component 101 has a second air outlet 211 formed on the first air guide 21. The second air guide 22 is movably disposed at the second air outlet 211 to open and close the second air outlet 211. When the second air guide 22 opens the second air outlet 211, airflow can be sent out not only from the first air outlet 1a but also from the second air outlet 211, thereby increasing the airflow of the top-outlet air component 101. When the second air guide 22 closes the second air outlet 211, the second air guide 22 blocks the airflow from being sent out from the second air outlet 211.

[0076] By providing a second air outlet 211 on the first air guide 21, the air volume of the top air outlet component 101 can be increased. This eliminates the need for an excessively large opening of the first air guide 21; a smaller opening is sufficient to achieve a larger air volume. This improves the operational reliability of the first air guide 21 and reduces the space occupied by the top air outlet component 101. The second air outlet 211, which is not lower than the first air outlet 1a, increases the air volume without affecting the air delivery range.

[0077] In addition, by forming a second air outlet 211 on the first air guide 21, the air delivery effect of the top air outlet component 101 can be improved. For example, the first air outlet 1a and the second air outlet 211 have different air delivery directions, that is, compared with air delivery using only the first air outlet 1a, the air delivery effect of the top air outlet component 101 can be improved.

[0078] According to the embodiments of this application, the top-outlet air component 101 provides a second air outlet 211 on the first air guide 21, and the airflow can be sent out from the second air outlet 211, thereby increasing the air volume of the top-outlet air component 101. The first air guide 21 can have a large air volume with a small opening, and it is not necessary to set the opening of the first air guide 21 too large, thereby improving the movement reliability of the first air guide 21 and reducing the space occupied by the top-outlet air component 101.

[0079] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, the first air guide 21 is rotatably connected to the upper air outlet frame 1, and the second air guide 22 is rotatably connected to the first air guide 21.

[0080] The rotary connection method is simple, which simplifies the connection structure between the first air guide 21 and the upper air outlet frame 1, as well as the connection structure between the second air guide 22 and the first air guide 21, thus reducing costs. Furthermore, the rotary motion is simple and easy to drive, improving the response speed of the first air guide 21 in switching the first air outlet 1a, and the response speed of the second air guide 22 in switching the second air outlet 211.

[0081] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in FIG5, a driving device 3 is provided on the upper air outlet frame 1. The driving device 3 is connected to the first air guide 21 to drive the first air guide 21 to rotate relative to the upper air outlet frame 1.

[0082] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in Figures 5 and 6, the driving device 3 is a motor 30. As shown in Figure 7, a motor mounting part 15 is provided on the upper air outlet frame 1, and the motor 30 is connected to the upper air outlet frame 1 through the motor mounting part 15.

[0083] As shown in Figures 7 and 9, a motor shaft through hole 16 is also provided on the upper air outlet frame 1. As shown in Figure 8, the motor shaft 31 of the motor 30 passes through the motor shaft through hole 16 and connects to the first air guide 21. The motor shaft 31 and the motor shaft through hole 16 are rotatably engaged. When the motor 30 starts, the motor shaft 31 of the motor 30 rotates to drive the first air guide 21 to rotate relative to the upper air outlet frame 1.

[0084] In some embodiments of this application, the second air guide 22 is rotatably connected to the first air guide 21, and the second air guide 22 is slidably engaged with the upper air outlet frame 1 so that the rotation of the first air guide 21 drives the second air guide 22 to rotate.

[0085] The first air guide 21 is the driving component, and the second air guide 22 is the driven component. The rotation of the first air guide 21 drives the rotation of the second air guide 22. Only one power component, the drive device 3, is needed to drive the rotation of the first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22, which can save the power component that drives the rotation of the second air guide 22, thereby reducing the difficulty of layout and saving manufacturing costs.

[0086] The second air guide 22 rotates with the first air guide 21. Therefore, the distance between the rotating engagement point of the second air guide 22 and the first air guide 21 and the upper air outlet frame 1 changes with the rotation of the first air guide 21. The sliding engagement between the second air guide 22 and the upper air outlet frame 1 can adapt to the positional changes of the second air guide 22 as the first air guide 21 moves, thereby improving the movement stability of the second air guide 22.

[0087] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in FIG4, the opening orientation of the first air guide 21 is the same as that of the second air guide 22, and when the first air guide 21 is rotated to the limit opening position, the rotation angle of the second air guide 22 is greater than that of the first air guide 21.

[0088] The opening direction of the first air guide 21 is the same as that of the second air guide 22. The air supply from the second air outlet 211 increases the air volume without affecting the air outlet effect of the first air outlet 1a. Taking the coordinates shown in Figure 4 as an example, both the first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22 open forward, and both the first air outlet 1a and the second air outlet 211 supply air forward.

[0089] It is worth noting that when the first air guide 21 rotates to open the first air outlet 1a, at least a portion of the first air guide 21 defines the airflow path when it reaches its maximum open position. However, if the rotation angle of the second air guide 22 mounted on the first air guide is less than that of the first air guide, the second air guide will rotate into the airflow path of the first air outlet, increasing obstruction to the airflow. Therefore, when the first air guide 21 reaches its maximum open position, the rotation angle of the second air guide 22 should be greater than that of the first air guide 21. This reduces interference with the airflow to the first air outlet 1a and helps to increase the airflow volume.

[0090] In some other embodiments of this application, the opening direction of the first air guide 21 and the opening direction of the second air guide 22 are different. For example, the first air guide 21 opens forward, and the second air guide 22 opens to the left or right. The first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22 cooperate with each other to drive the airflow to flow to the left or right, thereby increasing the air delivery range of the top air outlet component 101.

[0091] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in Figures 6 and 10, the rotation axis a2 of the second air guide and the rotation axis a1 of the first air guide both extend in the left-right direction, and the opening direction of the first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22 is the same and both open forward.

[0092] The rotation axis a1 of the first air guide is located at the rear of the first air guide 21. The first air guide 21 rotates to open the first air outlet 1a and guides the air outlet 1a forward. The rotation axis a2 of the second air guide is located at the middle of the first air guide 21 in the front-rear direction. The second air guide 22 can open the second air outlet 211 by rotating a small angle, guiding the airflow out of the second air outlet 211 and increasing the air volume of the top air outlet component 101.

[0093] The sliding part 221 of the second air guide 22 and the upper air outlet frame 1 is located at the rear of the second air guide 22. The distance from the sliding part 221 to the point where the second air guide 22 and the first air guide 21 rotate are less than the distance to the rotation axis a1 of the first air guide. Therefore, when the first air guide 21 rotates and drives the second air guide 22 to rotate, the rotation angle of the second air guide 22 is greater than the rotation angle of the first air guide 21.

[0094] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, the second air guide 22 is smaller in size in the front-to-back direction than the first air guide 21. Therefore, when the first air guide 21 is rotated to its maximum open position, the rotation angle of the second air guide 22 is greater than that of the first air guide 21 to increase the air volume. However, in the vertical direction, the height of the second air guide 22 is less than that of the first air guide 21, so it does not occupy additional vertical space and does not increase the volume of the top air outlet component 101 in the vertical direction.

[0095] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in Figures 6 and 9, the upper air outlet frame 1 includes a limiting part 12, on which a sliding hole 121 extending downward from back to front is provided, as shown in Figures 3 and 4. A pin 4 is provided on the sliding part 221, and the pin 4 is slidably disposed in the sliding hole 121 along the extension direction of the sliding hole 121. The sliding part 221 can slide along the extension direction of the sliding hole 121 to realize the sliding engagement between the second air guide 22 and the upper air outlet frame 1.

[0096] The movement process of the sliding part 221 is briefly described below with reference to Figures 3 and 4.

[0097] As shown in Figure 3, when the top air outlet component 101 is in the closed state, the pin 4 on the sliding part 221 is located above the rear side of the sliding hole 121. As shown in Figure 4, when the top air outlet component 101 switches from the closed state to the open state, the second air guide 22 is driven to rotate by the first air guide 21, and the pin 4 on the sliding part 221 moves from back to front and downward along the sliding hole 121, moving to the lower front side of the sliding hole 121.

[0098] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in Figures 6 and 10, there are two sliding portions 221. As shown in Figure 11, each sliding portion 221 has a first pin mounting hole 2211. The pin 4 passes through both first pin mounting holes 2211 to be mounted on the sliding portion 221. As shown in Figure 10, the two sliding portions 221 sandwich a limiting portion 12, and the pin 4 on the sliding portion 221 passes through the sliding hole 121 to move along the extending direction of the sliding hole 121.

[0099] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in Figures 7 and 9, the upper air outlet frame 1 includes a rear seat portion 13 and a cantilever 14 extending forward from the rear seat portion 13. The cantilever 14 consists of three cantilever arms, including two first cantilever arms 141 and a second cantilever arm 142 located between the two first cantilever arms 141. The first air guide member 21 is rotatably connected to at least one first cantilever arm 141, and the sliding portion 221 is slidably engaged with the second cantilever arm 142.

[0100] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in Figures 7 and 9, the upper air outlet frame 1 includes a limiting part 12, on which a sliding hole 121 is provided that extends downward from back to front, and the limiting part 12 is disposed on the second cantilever 142.

[0101] As shown in Figure 7, the drive device 3 is installed on the first cantilever 141 located on the left side. The first cantilever 141 located on the left side has a motor shaft through hole 16 through which the motor shaft 31 of the motor 30 passes. As shown in Figure 14, the first air guide 21 has a motor shaft hole 215. After the motor shaft 31 passes through the motor shaft through hole 16, it is inserted into the motor shaft hole 215 and stably connected with the first air guide 21. The motor 30 drives the motor shaft 31 to rotate, that is, drives the first air guide 21 to rotate relative to the first cantilever 141.

[0102] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in FIG13, a mounting portion 17 is connected to the rear seat portion 13, and the mounting portion 17 is disposed adjacent to the second cantilever 142 on the right side. As shown in FIG5 and FIG12, the first air guide 21 includes a pin arm 213, which is rotatably connected to the mounting portion 17 via a second pin 5.

[0103] As shown in Figure 14, a pin through hole 2131 is provided on the pin arm 213. As shown in Figure 13, a second pin mounting hole 171 is provided on the mounting part 17. There are two mounting parts 17, as shown in Figure 12. The two mounting parts 17 clamp the pin arm 213. The second pin 5 passes through the two second pin mounting holes 171 and is fixedly connected to the mounting part 17. The second pin 5 passes through the pin through hole 2131 and is rotatably engaged with the pin arm 213. The first air guide 21 is rotatably engaged with the mounting part 17 through the second pin 5. The axis of the second pin 5 and the axis of the motor shaft 31 are on the same straight line to improve the rotational stability of the first air guide 21.

[0104] In some embodiments of this application, one of the first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22 is provided with a rotating shaft, and the other of the first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22 is provided with a shaft hole that mates with the rotating shaft.

[0105] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in FIG11, a rotating shaft 225 is provided on the second air guide 22, and as shown in FIG14, a shaft hole 2141 is provided on the first air guide 21. As shown in FIG11, the second air guide 22 is provided with two extension arms 224 extending in the vertical direction, which are provided at the left and right ends of the second air guide 22. A rotating shaft 225 extending in the horizontal direction is provided on the opposite side of the extension arms 224.

[0106] As shown in Figure 14, the first air guide 21 is provided with a rotating arm 214 extending in the vertical direction. There are two rotating arms 214 located on the left and right sides of the second air outlet 211. The rotating arm 214 is provided with a shaft hole 2141 that extends in the left and right direction. The rotating shaft 225 extends into the shaft hole 2141 so that the second air guide 22 and the first air guide 21 can be rotatably connected.

[0107] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in Figures 14 and 15, the rotating arm 214 is also provided with a relief groove 2142 extending to connect with the shaft hole 2141. The relief groove 2142 facilitates the assembly connection of the rotating shaft 225 into the shaft hole 2141.

[0108] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in FIG15, the first air guide 21 includes a rear edge portion 212 that defines the rear edge of the second air outlet 211. As shown in FIG3 and FIG16, the rear end of the second air guide 22 has a downwardly recessed overlapping flange 223, and a groove 222 is formed between the overlapping flange 223 and the body of the second air guide 22.

[0109] As shown in Figure 3, when the second air guide 22 closes the second air outlet 211, the rear edge 212 is embedded in the groove 222. The overlapping flange 223 is located below the rear edge 212. By setting the overlapping flange 223 to form a groove 222 that cooperates with the rear edge 212, the top air outlet component 101 can be made more complete when the second air guide 22 closes the second air outlet 211, reducing the sense of separation between the second air guide 22 and the first air guide 21 and improving the overall integrity of the top air outlet component 101. Furthermore, the rear edge 212 and the overlapping flange 223 are directly opposite each other in the vertical direction, which can also protect the top air outlet component 101, reducing the leakage of dust and other pollutants from the second air outlet 211 into the top air outlet component 101, and improving the working reliability and cleanliness of the top air outlet component 101.

[0110] An air conditioner 1000 according to a second aspect embodiment of the present application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0111] An air conditioner 1000 according to an embodiment of this application, as shown in Figures 17-19, includes: a housing component 200 and a top air outlet component 101. The housing component 200 has a front air outlet, and the top air outlet component 101 is the top air outlet component 101 of the first aspect embodiment of this application. The top air outlet component 101 is disposed at the top of the housing component 200.

[0112] The first air outlet 1a and the second air outlet 211 formed by the top air outlet component 101 are located above the front air outlet. The air outlet range of the air conditioner 1000 can be increased by sending air through the first air outlet 1a and the second air outlet 211. When cooling, the cold air flows out through the first air outlet 1a and the second air outlet 211, which can improve the situation of cold air blowing directly on the human body. The cold air naturally sinks from top to bottom, improving the cooling effect.

[0113] According to the embodiments of this application, by providing the top air outlet component 101 of the first aspect, the air outlet effect of the air conditioner 1000 can be improved, and the space occupied above can be reduced, which is beneficial to the arrangement of the air conditioner 1000.

[0114] In some embodiments of this application, the air conditioner 1000 is further provided with a lower air outlet 202, which is located below the front air outlet. When the air conditioner 1000 is heating, hot air can flow out from the lower air outlet 202, which can first deliver hot air to the feet, warm the feet, improve the situation of hot head and cold feet, and enhance the steady-state thermal comfort of the human body.

[0115] As shown in Figures 20-30, the air conditioner 1000 according to an embodiment of this application includes: an air conditioner body 100, the top of the air conditioner body 100 having an upper air outlet frame 1, and the upper air outlet frame 1 having a first air outlet 1a; an air guide assembly 2 installed on the air conditioner body 100 and used to open and close the first air outlet 1a; the upper air outlet frame 1 having a water receiving trough 114, the water receiving trough 114 being adapted to receive condensate flowing down from the upper air outlet frame 1 and / or the air guide assembly 2.

[0116] This prevents condensate from dripping into the first air outlet 1a and being blown out with the air conditioner, thus protecting the indoor environment. It also prevents condensate from flowing into the air conditioner 1000 and causing short circuits in electrical components, thereby improving the reliability of the air conditioner 1000.

[0117] First, as shown in Figures 20-22, the air conditioner 1000 includes an air conditioner body 100. The top of the air conditioner body 100 has an upper air outlet frame 1, and the upper air outlet frame 1 has a first air outlet 1a. The first air outlet 1a is connected to the air outlet duct 63 of the air conditioner 1000 so that the air conditioner 1000 can blow out air conditioning air through the first air outlet 1a.

[0118] The air conditioner 1000 also includes an air guide assembly 2, which is movably mounted on the top of the air conditioner body 100 so that the air guide assembly 2 can be switched between an open position and a closed position. When the air guide assembly 2 is switched to the open position, the air guide assembly 2 can close the first air outlet 1a, and when the air guide assembly 2 is switched to the closed position, the air guide assembly 2 can open the first air outlet 1a.

[0119] It should be noted that when the first air outlet 1a blows out cold air, condensation will form on the upper air outlet frame 1 and the air guide assembly 2. The condensation may be blown into the room along with the air conditioning air, causing water droplets to appear in the indoor space, affecting the user's experience. It may also flow into the interior of the air conditioner 1000 from the air outlet, causing damage to the electrical components inside the air conditioner 1000.

[0120] To address the aforementioned issues, a water collection trough 114 can be provided on the upper air outlet frame 1. The water collection trough 114 is suitable for collecting condensate flowing down from the upper air outlet frame 1 and / or the air guide assembly 2, and storing or discharging the condensate outside the air conditioner 1000. Specifically, the water collection trough 114 can be used to collect condensate flowing down from the upper air outlet frame 1; or, it can be used to collect condensate flowing down from the air guide assembly 2; or, it can be used to collect condensate flowing down from both the upper air outlet frame 1 and the air guide assembly 2. This prevents condensate from being blown into the room along with the air conditioning air blown out of the first air outlet 1a, and also prevents condensate from flowing into the air conditioner 1000 and causing a short circuit between electrical components, thus improving the practicality of the air conditioner 1000. Of course, the water collection trough 114 can also be used to collect liquid dripping from the indoor space onto the top of the air conditioner 1000, which will not be elaborated upon here.

[0121] According to the embodiments of this application, the air conditioner 1000 has a water receiving groove 114 on the upper air outlet frame 1, which can receive condensate flowing down from the upper air outlet frame 1 and / or the air guide assembly 2. This can prevent condensate from dripping into the first air outlet 1a and being blown out with the air conditioning air, thus protecting the indoor environment. It can also prevent condensate from flowing into the air conditioner 1000 and causing short circuits in electrical components, thereby improving the reliability of the air conditioner 1000.

[0122] In some embodiments of this application, the air guide assembly 2 includes a first air guide 21, which is rotatably mounted on the upper air outlet frame 1 for opening and closing the first air outlet 1a. A first flow guiding structure 21a is formed on the first air guide 21, which is adapted to drain water into the water receiving tank 114 when the first air guide 21 opens the first air outlet 1a.

[0123] For example, referring to Figures 21-23, the air guiding assembly 2 includes a first air guiding member 21, which is matched with the first air outlet 1a. The first air guiding member 21 is rotatably mounted on the upper air outlet frame 1 for opening and closing the first air outlet 1a. Specifically, when the air guiding assembly 2 is switched to the open position, the first air guiding member 21 can open the first air outlet 1a, and when the air guiding assembly 2 is switched to the closed position, the first air guiding member 21 can close the first air outlet 1a.

[0124] A first air guide structure 21a can be formed on the first air guide component 21. When the air guide component 2 is switched to the open position, the first air guide component 21 opens the first air outlet 1a. The first air guide structure 21a is opposite to the first air guide component 21 so that the first air guide structure 21a can drain water into the water receiving tank 114.

[0125] The above settings can prevent condensate on the first air guide 21 from flowing into the first air outlet 1a, thus improving the design rationality of the air guide assembly 2.

[0126] In some embodiments of this application, when the first air guide 21 opens the first air outlet 1a, the front end of the first air guide 21 is raised and the rear end is lowered. The first flow guiding structure 21a is a flow guiding groove 216 formed on the top surface of the first air guide 21. The flow guiding groove 216 includes a first groove segment 2161 and a second groove segment 2162. The first groove segment 2161 is located at the front of the first air guide 21. The front end of the second groove segment 2162 is connected to the first groove segment 2161 and the rear end forms a first drain outlet 2163. The flow guiding groove 216 is adapted to drain water into the water receiving tank 114 through the first drain outlet 2163.

[0127] For example, as shown in Figures 22-25, the first air guide 21 can be rotatably connected to the upper air outlet frame 1 along the front-to-back direction at its middle part. When the air guide assembly 2 is switched to the open position, the front end of the first air guide 21 is raised and the rear end is lowered, so that the first air guide 21 can extend downward from front to back at an angle, and the first air outlet 1a can open forward.

[0128] The first flow guiding structure 21a is a flow guiding groove 216, which is formed on the top surface of the first air guiding component 21. The flow guiding groove 216 includes a first groove segment 2161 and a second groove segment 2162. The first groove segment 2161 is located at the front of the first air guiding component 21. The front end of the second groove segment 2162 is connected to the first groove segment 2161 and the rear end forms a first drain outlet 2163. When the air guiding component 2 is switched to the open position, the first drain outlet 2163 is located at the bottom of the second groove segment 2162 and is opposite to the water receiving tank 114, so that the flow guiding groove 216 can drain water into the water receiving tank 114 through the first drain outlet 2163.

[0129] It should be noted that the top surface of the first air guide 21 is located on the side of the first air guide 21 away from the first air outlet 1a. When the first air guide 21 opens the first air outlet 1a forward and blows out cold air from the first air outlet 1a, condensation water is easily formed at the front part of the top surface of the first air guide 21. By providing a guide groove 216 on the top surface of the first air guide 21, the condensation water can condense in the first groove section 2161, so that the condensation water can flow into the second groove section 2162 along the first groove section 2161, and flow downward along the second groove section 2162 to be discharged into the water receiving tank 114 from the first drain outlet 2163.

[0130] The above settings ensure that the first flow guiding structure 21a can guide the condensate on the first air guide 21 into the water receiving tank 114 as much as possible, reduce the overflow of condensate, improve the drainage efficiency of the first flow guiding structure 21a, and improve the practicality of the first flow guiding structure 21a.

[0131] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in FIG24, two second trough sections 2162 can be provided, with the two second trough sections 2162 located at the left and right ends of the first air guide 21 and connected to the two ends of the first trough section 2161 respectively. With this arrangement, condensate in the first trough section 2161 can flow from both sides into the two first trough sections 2161 for drainage through the two first drain outlets 2163. This improves the drainage efficiency of the first flow guiding structure 21a and prevents condensate from accumulating in the first trough section 2161, thus enhancing the design rationality of the first flow guiding structure 21a.

[0132] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in FIG23, the first drain outlet 2163 can be located at the middle position of the first air guide 21 along the front-back direction. This arrangement shortens the distance between the first trough section 2161 and the first drain outlet 2163, improving the drainage efficiency of the first flow guiding structure 21a. Furthermore, the first drain outlet 2163 can be positioned close to the rotation axis of the first air guide 21, reducing its movement amplitude and making it easier for it to connect with the water receiving trough 114, thus reducing the layout difficulty of the air guide assembly 2.

[0133] In some embodiments of this application, the first air guide 21 has an air outlet 211, and the air guide assembly 2 includes a second air guide 22 for opening and closing the air outlet 211. The second air guide 22 is rotatably engaged with the first air guide 21 and slidably engaged with the upper air outlet frame 1, so that the opening and closing action of the first air guide 21 is linked to the opening and closing action of the second air guide 22. A second flow guiding structure 22a is formed on the second air guide 22, which is adapted to drain water into the water receiving tank 114 when the second air guide 22 opens the air outlet 211.

[0134] For example, referring to Figures 22 and 25, the first air guide 21 has an air outlet 211 formed in the middle. The air guide assembly 2 includes a second air guide 22, which is matched with the air outlet 211. The second air guide 22 is installed inside the air outlet 211 and is used to open and close the air outlet 211. Specifically, when the air guide assembly 2 is switched to the open position, the second air guide 22 can open the air outlet 211 so that the first air outlet 1a can communicate with the indoor space through the air outlet 211. When the air guide assembly 2 is switched to the closed position, the second air guide 22 can close the air outlet 211.

[0135] The second air guide 22 can be provided with an extension arm 224 and a sliding part 221 at its front and rear ends, respectively. The extension arm 224 is used to rotatably cooperate with the first air guide 21, and the sliding part 221 is used to slide with the upper air outlet frame 1, so that the first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22 can be linked together, so that the opening and closing action of the first air guide 21 can drive the second air guide 22 to open and close synchronously. At the same time, a second flow guiding structure 22a can be provided on the second air guide 22. When the second air guide 22 opens the air outlet 211, the second flow guiding structure 22a can drain water towards the water receiving tank 114.

[0136] Understandably, by linking the first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22, the number of driving components can be reduced, costs can be lowered, and the simultaneous opening or closing of the first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22 can be ensured, thus improving the reliability of the air guide assembly 2. Furthermore, by providing a second airflow guiding structure 22a on the second air guide 22, condensate water on the second air guide 22 can be prevented from dripping into the first air outlet 1a and being blown out with the air conditioning air, and condensate water on the second air guide 22 can be prevented from flowing into the air conditioner 1000 and causing a short circuit in the electrical components, thereby improving the practicality of the air guide assembly 2.

[0137] In some embodiments of this application, when the second air guide 22 opens the air outlet 211, the front end of the second air guide 22 is raised and the rear end is lowered. The second flow guiding structure 22a is an overlapping flange 223 formed at the rear of the second air guide 22. The overlapping flange 223 is recessed downward so that it overlaps the bottom wall of the first air guide 21 when the second air guide 22 closes the air outlet 211, and extends above the water receiving tank 114 when the second air guide 22 opens the air outlet 211.

[0138] For example, referring to Figures 22 and 25, when the air guide assembly 2 is switched to the open position, the front end of the second air guide 22 is raised and the rear end is lowered, allowing the second air guide 22 to open the air outlet 211 forward. The rear of the second air guide 22 is provided with an overlapping flange 223, which extends rearward and forms a second airflow guiding structure 22a. The overlapping flange 223 is recessed downward so that it is staggered from the second air guide 22.

[0139] Specifically, when the second air guide 22 closes the air outlet 211, the overlapping flange 223 can overlap the bottom of the top wall of the first air guide 21 to achieve a limiting position between the first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22; and when the second air guide 22 closes the air outlet 211, the overlapping flange 223 can move downward to maintain a distance from the top wall of the first air guide 21. At this time, the overlapping flange 223 can extend to the top of the water receiving tank 114, so that the condensate on the top wall of the second air guide 22 can flow downward to the overlapping flange 223 and flow into the water receiving tank 114 through the overlapping flange 223.

[0140] With the above settings, the overlapping flange 223 can have both limiting and guiding functions, which can improve the sealing of the air outlet 211 and ensure the water guiding performance of the second air guide 22, thus improving the practicality of the air guide assembly 2.

[0141] In some embodiments of this application, a groove 1121 is formed on the top wall of the upper air outlet frame 1. A second drain outlet 1122 is provided on the side of the groove 1121 near the first air outlet 1a. The groove 1121 is adapted to drain water into the water receiving tank 114 through the second drain outlet 1122. A water-blocking flange 1123 is provided on the side of the groove 1121 away from the second drain outlet 1122.

[0142] For example, as shown in FIG26, a trough 1121 can be provided on the top wall of the upper air outlet frame 1. The trough 1121 is used to collect the condensate of the upper air outlet frame 1. The side of the trough 1121 near the first air outlet 1a is open and has a second drain outlet 1122. The second drain outlet 1122 is arranged opposite to the water receiving tank 114, so that the trough 1121 can drain water into the water receiving tank 114 through the second drain outlet 1122. A water-blocking flange 1123 is provided on the side of the trough 1121 away from the second drain outlet 1122. The water-blocking flange 1123 is used to restrict the condensate in the trough 1121 to prevent the condensate from overflowing to the outside of the upper air outlet frame 1.

[0143] Specifically, when the air guide assembly 2 opens the first air outlet 1a and blows out cold air from the first air outlet 1a, condensate can condense on the top wall of the upper air outlet frame 1. The condensate can flow into the settling trough 1121 for collection. The condensate flowing into the settling trough 1121 can flow from the second drain outlet 1122 to the inner wall of the upper air outlet frame 1 and flow into the water receiving trough 114 along the inner wall of the upper air outlet frame 1.

[0144] Understandably, by directing the condensate condensed at the upper air outlet frame 1 into the water collection tray 114, the condensate can be prevented from overflowing onto the outer surface of the air conditioner body 100, which helps to improve the cleanliness of the air conditioner 1000 and increases user satisfaction.

[0145] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in FIG26, the top wall of the upper air outlet frame 1 can be configured to slope downward along the direction close to the recess 1121. Exemplarily, a recess 1121 can be provided on the front side of the top wall of the upper air outlet frame 1, and the top wall of the upper air outlet frame 1 is configured to extend forward and downward. Through the above configuration, the top wall of the upper air outlet frame 1 can have a guiding function, allowing the top wall of the upper air outlet frame 1 to completely guide condensate into the recess 1121, thus preventing condensate overflow and improving the design rationality of the air conditioner 1000.

[0146] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in FIG26, the bottom wall of the settling tank 1121 may be configured to slope downward along the direction close to the second drain outlet 1122. This improves the drainage efficiency of the settling tank 1121 and prevents condensate from accumulating in the settling tank 1121 for extended periods, thus avoiding odor and improving the airflow quality of the air conditioner 1000.

[0147] In some embodiments of this application, the upper air outlet frame 1 includes side frame portions 112 located on both sides of the air guide assembly 2. Each side frame portion 112 has a groove 1121 formed on its top wall. The side of the groove 1121 near the air guide assembly 2 is open to form a second drain outlet 1122.

[0148] For example, referring to Figures 22 and 26, the upper air outlet frame 1 includes two side frame portions 112, which are respectively located on both sides of the air guide assembly 2 along the left-right direction. Each side frame portion 112 has a recessed groove 1121 formed on its top wall. A water collection groove 114 is provided on the side wall of the side frame portion 112 facing the air guide assembly 2, and the side of the recessed groove 1121 near the air guide assembly 2 is open to form a second drain outlet 1122. The second drain outlet 1122 and the water collection groove 114 are opposite each other in the left-right direction, so that condensate in the recessed groove 1121 can be directly discharged from the second drain outlet 1122 into the water collection groove 114. This ensures that all condensate at the upper air outlet frame 1 can flow into the water collection groove 114, improving the design rationality of the upper air outlet frame 1.

[0149] In some embodiments of this application, as shown in FIG26, a drain hole 1143 may be formed at the lowest point of the water receiving tank 114. With the above arrangement, it can be ensured that all the condensate in the water receiving tank 114 can be discharged through the drain hole 1143, so as to avoid the condensate from accumulating in the water receiving tank 114 for a long time and causing odor, which is beneficial to improving the air output quality of the air conditioner 1000.

[0150] In some embodiments of this application, the upper air outlet frame 1 defines an installation space 11a for installing the air guide assembly 2. The lower end of the upper air outlet frame 1 has a water receiving portion 115 on the side near the installation space 11a. The water receiving portion 115 extends circumferentially along the installation space 11a and defines a top-open water receiving groove 114.

[0151] For example, referring to FIG26, an installation space 11a is appropriately defined within the upper air outlet frame 1. The air guide component 2 is matched and configured to be installed in the installation space 11a to connect with the upper air outlet frame 1. A water receiving portion 115 is provided at the lower end of the upper air outlet frame 1 near the installation space 11a. The water receiving portion 115 extends circumferentially along the installation space 11a and, together with the inner peripheral wall of the installation space 11a, defines a top-open water receiving groove 114. This allows the water receiving groove 114 to communicate with the inner peripheral wall of the upper air outlet frame 1, enabling condensate from the upper air outlet frame 1 to flow directly into the water receiving groove 114 along the inner wall. Furthermore, the water receiving groove 114 is positioned vertically opposite the edge of the air guide component 2, allowing condensate from the air guide component 2 to flow directly downwards into the water receiving groove 114.

[0152] The above configuration allows the condensate from the upper air outlet frame 1 and the condensate from the air guide assembly 2 to flow into the same water collection tank 114, which helps to simplify the structure of the air conditioner 1000.

[0153] In some embodiments of this application, the upper air outlet frame 1 includes a rear frame portion 111 and a side frame portion 112. There are two side frame portions 112, which are spaced apart in the left and right direction. The left and right ends of the rear frame portion 111 are connected to the rear ends of the two side frame portions 112. The installation space 11a is limited between the two side frame portions 112 and the rear frame portion 111. The water receiving portion 115 includes a rear water receiving portion 1151 located at the lower end of the rear frame portion 111 and a side water receiving portion 1152 located at the lower end of the side frame portion 112.
