The invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 1, the air conditioner volute tongue comprises a volute tongue body 100, wherein an air guide surface is arranged on the volute tongue body 100, a plurality of flow guide ribs 110 are arranged on the air guide surface at intervals along the length direction of the volute tongue body 100, and a flow guide groove 120 is formed between any two adjacent flow guide ribs 110; the diversion trench 120 is a spiral trench or an inclined trench; when the diversion trench 120 is an inclined trench, the included angle θ between the diversion rib 110 and the cross section of the volute tongue body 100 is an acute angle.
Wherein, the plurality of guide ribs 110 are generally uniformly distributed on the air guiding surface to ensure uniformity of the air guiding flow and reduce noise; the diversion ribs 110 can be spirally arranged on the air guiding surface or can be obliquely arranged, so that the diversion grooves 120 are spiral grooves or oblique grooves; the diversion trench 120 with the structure can enable the boundary of the air flow entering the diversion trench 120 to be tightly attached to the surface of the diversion rib 110, thereby reducing the doping with surrounding air flow, avoiding larger energy fluctuation and reducing noise; on the other hand, the air flow can be discharged along the diversion trench 120, the uniformity of the discharged air flow is ensured, the circulating flow of the air in the volute 200 is avoided, and the back flow of the air is also avoided.
As a preferred scheme of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the air guiding surface has a U-shaped structure, which includes a first curved surface section 101, a second curved surface section 102 and a third curved surface section 103 connected together in a smooth transition manner in sequence; the guide grooves 120 are parallel to each other. After the volute tongue is installed on the indoor unit of the air conditioner, the first curved surface section 101 corresponds to the C-shaped evaporator 500, the second curved surface section 102 corresponds to the cross-flow fan 400, and the third curved surface section 103 corresponds to the air outlet of the indoor unit; in order to ensure the air guiding effect, the arc radius of the first curved surface section 101 is generally required to be larger than that of the second curved surface section 102; in order to reduce wind resistance and enhance the air-supplying capability of the air conditioner, the third curved surface section 103 should be made as smooth as possible, so that the radius of the arc of the third curved surface section 103 is generally required to be larger than that of the first curved surface section 101. The wind guide surface with the structure can reduce wind resistance, improve the air supply capacity of the volute tongue, be favorable for leading air flow to be smoothly guided to the air outlet of the indoor unit of the air conditioner, avoid turbulent flow caused by rebound of air outlet directly impacted on the volute tongue body 100 and further reduce noise.

Specifically, the guide rib 110 is in arc transition connection with the air guiding surface, and the height of the guide rib 110 is 1 mm-3 mm. The arc transition connection of the flow guiding rib 110 and the air guiding surface ensures the smoothness of the flow guiding groove 120, is beneficial to the flow guiding of air flow and reduces noise. The height of the guide rib 110 is designed to be 1mm to 3mm, on the one hand, to ensure the guide performance, and on the other hand, to adapt to the product and simplify the structure.
Specifically, the edge of the guide rib 110 is guided with a round angle, and the radius of the round angle is 0.3 mm-0.6 mm. The rounded corners at the edges of the guide rib 110 can also make the guide groove 120 smoother and reduce noise during air exhaust.
As another preferred embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, a volute tongue wind guiding top surface 130 is further provided on the volute tongue body 100, the volute tongue wind guiding top surface 130 is provided with an inclined rib plate 140 along the length direction of the volute tongue body 100, the upper end of the inclined rib plate 140 is located at the upper side of the wind guiding surface, and an included angle γ between the inclined rib plate 140 and the volute tongue wind guiding top surface 130 is an acute angle. After the volute tongue is installed on the air conditioner indoor unit, the inclined rib plate 140 generally corresponds to the C-shaped evaporator 500, and the inclined rib plate 140 can prevent condensed water on the C-shaped evaporator 500 from being blown out by the cross-flow fan 400 on one hand, and can further improve the convection environment of air flow and reduce noise generated by the air conditioner indoor unit on the other hand.
Specifically, one end of the flow guiding rib 110 extends towards the inclined rib plate 140 and is connected with the inclined rib plate 140 in a circular arc transition mode.
In order to achieve better flow guiding effect and fully exert the noise reduction effect of the inclined rib plates 140, the arc radius of the arc transition structure connecting the flow guiding ribs 110 and the inclined rib plates 140 is 1 mm-3 mm; the included angle gamma between the inclined rib plate 140 and the volute tongue wind guide top surface 130 is 45-60 degrees.
