[0023] Detailed Explanation

[0024] The principles and features of this application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only for explaining this application and are not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0025] The ducted air conditioner provided in this application embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, includes a housing 600 and an integrated assembly, which is disposed within the housing 600. As shown in Figures 1 to 7, the integrated assembly includes an air outlet frame assembly and a heat exchanger assembly 100, with the heat exchanger assembly 100 located on the side of the air outlet frame assembly facing the interior of the housing 600. The air outlet frame assembly includes an air outlet bracket 200, which has a first air passage 211 and a first mounting portion 230. In a first direction, the first mounting portion 230 is located on the first side of the first air passage 211 (the first side of the first air passage 211 faces the interior of the housing 600). In a second direction, the first mounting portion 230 and the first air passage 211 are sequentially arranged. In the first direction, the heat exchanger assembly 100 is located on the first side of the first air passage 211 and fixed to the first mounting portion 230. The first air passage 211 is opposite to the side of the heat exchanger of the heat exchanger assembly 100, and the first and second directions intersect. As shown in Figure 10, the housing 600 is provided with a first air vent 610 and a second air vent 620. A first air passage 211 is located inside the first air vent 610. The heat exchanger assembly 100 is located between the second air vent 620 and the air outlet bracket 200. An air stream is formed inside the housing 600, blowing from the second air vent 620 through the heat exchanger to the first air passage 211. The first direction is the front-to-back direction, the second direction is the left-to-right direction, and the first side is the rear side.

[0026] The integrated component is used in duct air conditioners. The heat exchanger assembly 100 and the air outlet bracket 200 are both located inside the housing 600. The first air outlet 211 is located inside the first air outlet 610. The air outlet bracket 200 is fixedly connected to the heat exchanger assembly 100 through the first mounting part 230. In this design, the air outlet bracket 200 is made of plastic, so the first mounting part 230 can be easily designed as a plug-in connection part, a positioning part, a snap-fit ​​connection part, or a screw connection part, etc. This design simplifies the fixing method between the heat exchanger assembly 100 and the air outlet bracket 200. Moreover, after the heat exchanger assembly 100 and the air outlet bracket 200 are assembled into an integrated component, the integrated component is installed into the housing 600 as a whole, which reduces the assembly difficulty of the heat exchanger assembly 100 and the air outlet bracket 200 inside the housing 600.

[0027] In some examples, as shown in Figures 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, the air outlet frame assembly also includes a rotary drive 300 and a door 400. The air outlet bracket 200 also has an inspection port 213 and a second mounting portion 240. The first air outlet 211 and the inspection port 213 are arranged sequentially in a second direction. In the first direction, the second mounting portion 240 is located on the first side of the inspection port 213 and is configured to fix the rotary drive 300. The first air outlet 211 is configured to mount the swingable door 400. The rotary drive 300 is positioned opposite the inspection port 213 and is configured to drive the door 400 to swing. The rotary drive 300 drives the door 400 to swing, thus opening and closing the first air outlet 211. In case of a malfunction of the rotary drive 300, it can be disassembled and repaired through the inspection port 213, making the disassembly and repair process of the rotary drive 300 simpler.

[0028] Alternatively, the second mounting part 240, the rotary drive component 300, and the switch door 400 can be arranged as one set; or, as shown in Figures 2 to 4, the second mounting part 240, the rotary drive component 300, and the switch door 400 can be arranged as two sets, in which case the two switch doors 400 are arranged sequentially in the vertical direction and open and close the first air passage 211 together; or, the second mounting part 240, the rotary drive component 300, and the switch door 400 can be arranged as three sets, in which case the three switch doors 400 are arranged sequentially in the vertical direction and open and close the first air passage 211 together; or, the maintenance port 213 can include one and be located on the left side of the first air passage 211; or, the maintenance port 213 can include one and be located on the right side of the first air passage 211; or, the maintenance port 213 can include two and be located on the left and right sides of the first air passage 211, etc.; all of the above can achieve the purpose of this application, and their purpose has not deviated from the design concept of this application, and will not be elaborated here, and should all fall within the protection scope of this application.

[0029] In some examples, as shown in Figure 4, the ducted air conditioner also includes a water collection tray 500, which is located inside the housing 600 and below the heat exchanger assembly 100. A second air outlet 510 is provided at the front of the water collection tray 500, located below and behind the first air outlet 211. A rotary drive 300 drives the opening and closing door 400 to swing, which can also open and close the second air outlet 510. That is, the opening and closing door 400 can simultaneously open the first air outlet 211 and the second air outlet 510 to allow air to flow from both outlets simultaneously, or it can selectively open only one outlet to allow air to flow from either outlet. Alternatively, during heating, the door 400 opens the second air vent and closes the first air vent 211, allowing hot air to blow downwards from the second air vent, thus achieving rapid grounding of the hot air; or during cooling, the door 400 closes the second air vent and opens the first air vent 211, allowing cold air to blow forward from the first air vent 211, thus preventing cold air from blowing directly on people; or during cooling, the door 400 first opens both the first and second air vents simultaneously, and after a set time, the door 400 then closes the second air vent... When the first air vent 211 is opened, cold air is blown into the room simultaneously from both the first and second air vents, achieving rapid cooling. After a set time, the cold air is then blown forward from the first air vent 211, preventing the cold air from blowing directly on people. Alternatively, the user can control the opening and closing of the door 400 as needed, such as opening the second air vent and closing the first air vent 211 during cooling. All of the above can achieve the purpose of this application, and their intent does not deviate from the design concept of this application. They will not be elaborated further here, and all should fall within the protection scope of this application.

[0030] In other examples, as shown in Figures 8 and 9, the air outlet bracket 200 also has a second air passage 280. In a first direction, the second air passage 280 is located on the first side of the first air passage 211. In a third direction, the second air passage 280 is located on the fifth side (i.e., the lower side; in this design, the second air passage 280 is located on the air outlet bracket 200). The first air passage 211 discharges air forward, and the second air passage 280 discharges air downward. Here, the third direction refers to the vertical direction, and the fifth side refers to the lower side. Furthermore, the rotary drive 300 drives the opening and closing door 400 to swing, which can also open and close the second air passage 280. The door 400 can simultaneously open the first air vent 211 and the second air vent 280 to allow air to flow from both vents at the same time. Alternatively, the door 400 can selectively open only one of the two air vents to allow air to flow from only one. For example, during heating, the door 400 opens the second air vent 280 and closes the first air vent 211, allowing hot air to blow downwards from the second air vent 280, achieving rapid airflow to the ground. Conversely, during cooling, the door 400 closes the second air vent 280 and opens the first air vent 211, allowing cold air to blow forward from the first air vent 211, preventing cold air from blowing directly on people. Finally, during cooling, the door 400 first simultaneously opens both the first air vent 211 and the second air vent 280, and then closes the second air vent after a set time. When the first air vent 211 is opened, cold air is simultaneously blown into the room from both the first air vent 211 and the second air vent 280, achieving rapid cooling. After a set time, the cold air is then blown forward from the first air vent 211, preventing the cold air from blowing directly on people. Alternatively, the user can control the opening and closing of the door 400 as needed, such as opening the second air vent 280 and closing the first air vent 211 when cooling is required. All of the above can achieve the purpose of this application, and their purpose does not deviate from the design concept of this application. They will not be elaborated here and should all fall within the protection scope of this application.

[0031] In some examples, the first air vent 211 is provided with multiple sets of hinges 212 spaced apart in a third direction, and multiple doors 400 are connected to the multiple sets of hinges 212 in a one-to-one correspondence. As shown in Figures 4 and 7, the multiple sets of hinges 212 include two sets of hinges 212 located at the two ends of the first air vent 211 in a third direction. The second mounting part 240 includes two parts, which correspond one-to-one with the two sets of hinges 212. The two sets of hinges 212 are configured to hingely connect the two doors 400. Each set of hinges 212 includes multiple parts spaced apart in the left-right direction (which can be evenly distributed), which can better support the doors 400 and prevent local bending deformation of the doors 400. The two doors 400 are configured to open and close the first air vent 211 simultaneously, and the lower door 400 is configured to open and close the second air vent 510. The first air vent 211 is larger in the vertical direction than the second air vent 510 is in the front-back direction. When the first air vent 211 is closed, the lower door 400 is larger in the vertical direction than the upper door 400. The upper ends of the upper door 400 and the lower ends of the lower door 400 are hinged to the two sets of hinges 212. To prevent air leakage at the hinges, sealing sponge is provided between the hinge ends of the two doors 400 and the wall of the first air vent 211 in the vertical direction.

[0032] The upper switch door 400 can have a first position and a second position, while the lower switch door 400 can have a third position, a fourth position, and a fifth position. As shown in Figure 2, when the upper switch door 400 is in the second position and the lower switch door 400 is in the fourth position, both switches door 400 together close the first air vent 211, and the lower switch door 400 opens the second air vent 510. As shown in Figure 4, when the upper switch door 400 is in the first position and the lower switch door 400 is in the third position, both switches door 400 together open the first air vent 211, and the lower switch door 400 closes the second air vent 510. When the upper switch door 400 is in the first position and the lower switch door 400 is in the fifth position (the fifth position is between the third and fourth positions), both switches door 400 together open the first air vent 211, and the lower switch door 400 opens the second air vent 510.

[0033] In some examples, as shown in Figures 2, 4, and 7, the opening wall of the first air vent 211 is provided with a first annular mating surface 250. The first annular mating surface 250 faces the first side (i.e., the rear side) of the first air vent 211 in a first direction. The first annular mating surface 250 is configured to mate with two switch doors 400 to close the first air vent 211. At this time, the adjacent ends of the two switch doors 400 are sealed by overlapping (sealing sponge can be added here to improve the sealing effect during overlap). This avoids air leakage at the first air vent 211, which would cause condensation and whistling when cold air is discharged from the second air vent 510. Furthermore, when air is discharged only from the second air vent 510, the overlapping joints of the two switch doors 400 are pressed together by the air pressure generated by the airflow blown from inside the housing 600, and the peripheries of the two switch doors 400 are pressed together by the air pressure against the first annular mating surface 250. This improves the sealing effect of the two switch doors 400 on the first air vent 211. The first air vent 211 is equipped with a reinforcing rib 270 erected along the front-to-back direction. The shape of the rear end face of the reinforcing rib 270 matches the shape of the sides of the two switch doors 400. When the upper switch door 400 is in the second position and the lower switch door 400 is in the fourth position, the front sides of the two switch doors 400 abut against the rear end face of the reinforcing rib 270. The reinforcing ribs 270 include multiple ribs, which are arranged at intervals in the left-right direction to better improve the structural strength of the integrated component. The upper hinge portion 212 is located on the upper part of the first annular mating surface 250, and the lower hinge portion 212 is located on the lower part of the first annular mating surface 250.

[0034] In some examples, as shown in Figure 4, the second air vent 510 has a second annular mating surface 260 on its opening wall. On the sixth side (i.e., the upper side) of the second annular mating surface 260 facing the second air vent 510, the second annular mating surface 260 is configured to cooperate with the lower switch door 400 to seal the second air vent 510. This prevents air leakage at the second air vent 510, which could lead to condensation and whistling noise when cold air exits from the first air vent 211. Similarly, when air exits only from the first air vent 211, the lower switch door 400 is pressed against the second annular mating surface 260 by the air pressure generated by the airflow blown from inside the housing 600. This further enhances the sealing effect of the lower switch door 400 on the second air vent 510.

[0035] Alternatively, the first mounting part 230 may include one set and be located on the rear left side of the first air outlet 211; or the first mounting part 230 may include one set and be located on the rear right side of the first air outlet 211; or, as shown in Figures 5 to 7, the first mounting part 230 may include two sets, with the first air outlet 211 located between the two sets of the first mounting parts 230, and the heat exchanger assembly 100 being fixedly connected to the two first mounting parts 230 one-to-one at both ends in the left-right direction; all of the above can achieve the purpose of this application, and their purpose has not departed from the design concept of this application, and will not be elaborated here, and should all fall within the protection scope of this application.

[0036] In some examples, as shown in Figures 5 to 7, each first mounting part 230 includes at least one of a plug-in connection part, a positioning part, a snap-fit ​​connection part, and a screw connection part. For example, as shown in Figures 2, 3, and 5 to 7, the first mounting part 230 includes a plug-in connection part, a positioning part, and a screw connection part. The plug-in connection part is configured as a rib arranged in the vertical direction, the positioning part is configured as a positioning groove, and the screw connection part is configured as a screw hole. The heat exchanger assembly 100 includes a heat exchanger 110 and two mounting brackets 120. The two mounting brackets 120 are connected one-to-one with the two side plates of the heat exchanger 110. Each mounting bracket 120 has a slot, a positioning protrusion, and a through hole. The slot is inserted into the rib from bottom to top, the positioning protrusion is inserted into the positioning groove, and the screw passes through the through hole and is screwed into the screw hole. This ensures that the mounting brackets 120 of the heat exchanger assembly 100 will not move relative to the air outlet bracket 100 during a drop test of the ducted air conditioner.

[0037] In some examples, as shown in Figures 3 to 9, the air outlet bracket 200 includes a first bracket plate 210 and a second bracket plate 220 connected in a folded structure. In a first direction, the second bracket plate 220 is located on the first side (i.e., the rear side) of the first bracket plate 210. In a third direction, the second bracket plate 220 is located on the sixth side (i.e., the upper side) of the first bracket plate 210. A first air outlet 211, an inspection port 213, and a second mounting portion 240 are located on the first bracket plate 210. A first mounting portion 230 is located on the first bracket plate 210 and / or the second bracket plate 220. Alternatively, a plug-in connection portion may be located on the first bracket plate 210, a positioning portion on the second bracket plate 220, and screw holes may be located at the lower end of the plug-in connection portion and on the second bracket plate 220. Both the first bracket plate 210 and the second bracket plate 220 are connected to the housing 600, thus ensuring the air outlet bracket 200 is securely fixed within the housing 600.

[0038] The air conditioner provided in this application embodiment (not shown in the figure) includes the ducted air conditioner described in any of the above embodiments.

[0039] This air conditioner possesses all the advantages of the ducted air conditioner provided in any of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0040] The technical solution provided in this application embodiment involves an air outlet frame assembly applied to a ducted air conditioner. The ducted air conditioner also has a second air inlet. The second air inlet is located on the first side (e.g., the rear side) of the first air inlet in a first direction (e.g., the front-to-back direction), and on the fifth side (e.g., the lower side) of the first air inlet in a third direction (e.g., the up-down direction). When multiple doors jointly close the first air inlet, the second air inlet is in an open state. At this time, air can blow from the second air inlet towards the direct lower part of the ducted air conditioner. Since multiple doors jointly close the first air inlet, condensation will not occur at the first air inlet. The question is: If the second air vent is closed by a third-party switch door near the second air vent, then the first air vent is at least partially open. At this time, air can be blown from the first air vent toward the front of the duct unit, and the switch door at the bottom closes the second air vent. In this way, the switch door at the bottom will not cause condensation at the second air vent. That is, the duct unit, together with the engineering panel, can deliver hot and cold air downwards, and can also deliver hot and cold air forwards. This can reduce the blind spot of air delivery, reduce the temperature difference between different areas of the room, improve the user's comfort when blowing hot air, and provide a better user experience.

[0041] The technical solution provided in this application embodiment integrates components for use in ducted air conditioners. Both the heat exchanger assembly and the air outlet bracket are housed within the casing. The first air outlet is located within the first air inlet. The air outlet bracket is fixedly connected to the heat exchanger assembly via a first mounting part. In this solution, the air outlet bracket is made of plastic, which allows the first mounting part to be easily designed as a plug-in connection, positioning part, snap-fit ​​connection, or screw connection, etc. This solution simplifies the connection between the heat exchanger assembly and the air outlet bracket. Furthermore, after the heat exchanger assembly and the air outlet bracket are assembled into an integrated component, the integrated component is installed entirely within the casing, which reduces the assembly difficulty of the heat exchanger assembly and the air outlet bracket within the casing.
