An indoor unit 100 of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 1 to 19.

As shown in fig. 1 to 19, an indoor unit 100 of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an indoor heat exchange module 1, an air treatment module 2, an intermediate support module 3, a lamp assembly 4, a detection module (not shown), and a control module (not shown).

Air treatment module 2 sets up from top to bottom with indoor heat exchange module 1, and middle support module 3 is established between indoor heat exchange module 1 and air treatment module 2, and middle support module 3 is including supporting casing 31, and supporting casing 31 is used for supporting indoor heat exchange module 1 and air treatment module 2. The lamp component 4 comprises at least one lamp strip 41, the at least one lamp strip 41 corresponds to the middle support module 3, the lamp strip 41 comprises a plurality of light-emitting devices 411, the detection module is used for detecting the indoor air quality to obtain each air quality parameter, and the control module controls the number of the light-emitting devices 411 and the light-emitting color of the lamp strip 41 according to each air quality parameter, so that the air conditioner sends out air quality prompt information.

Generally, the indoor unit 100 includes a cabinet and a hook, and the following description is made in terms of the cabinet and the hook, respectively.

First, the cabinet will be described. As shown in fig. 1 to 9, when the indoor unit 100 of the air conditioner is a cabinet air conditioner, at least one light strip 41 is disposed around the support housing 31, and the lamp assembly 4 includes one light strip 41, the light strip 41 passes around the support housing 31 in the circumferential direction of the support housing 31 and both ends of the light strip 41 are adjacent to each other, and at least one of the both ends of the light strip 41 is provided with a light strip emitting head 42.

For example, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the air treatment module 2 may be disposed below the indoor heat exchange module 1 to reduce the width of the cabinet air conditioner in the front-back direction and the left-right direction, thereby saving the occupied space of the cabinet air conditioner. The middle supporting module 3 can be connected between the indoor heat exchange module 1 and the air processing module 2, namely, the upper end of the middle supporting module 3 can be connected with the indoor heat exchange module 1, and the lower end of the middle supporting module 3 can be connected with the air processing module 2. Of course, the air treatment module 2 may also be disposed above the indoor heat exchange module 1, and at this time, the lower end of the middle support module 3 may be connected to the indoor heat exchange module 1, and the upper end of the middle support module 3 may be connected to the air treatment module 2.

At least one lamp area 41 encircles and supports casing 31 setting, lamp area 41 includes a plurality of luminescent device 411, lamp area 41 can give out light and luminous colour can have multiple change, like this detect indoor air quality as detection module, and acquire every air quality parameter (for example, formaldehyde concentration, carbon dioxide concentration, PM2.5 concentration and ozone concentration etc.) back according to indoor air quality, control module can control the quantity of luminescent device 411 and the luminous colour of lamp area 41 according to every air quality parameter, thereby make the air conditioner can send air quality prompt message, so that the user can follow the audio-visual current indoor air quality of understanding of each angle.

In some embodiments of the present invention, each air quality parameter corresponds to a serial number (e.g., the serial number corresponding to the formaldehyde concentration is X1, the serial number corresponding to the carbon dioxide concentration is X2, the serial number corresponding to the PM2.5 concentration is X3, and the serial number corresponding to the ozone concentration is X4), the control module obtains the corresponding serial number according to each air quality parameter, obtains an air quality grade (e.g., poor, normal, and good) according to a current value of each air quality parameter, controls the number of the light emitting devices 411 according to the serial numbers, and controls the light emitting color (e.g., red, yellow, and green) of the light strip 41 according to the air quality grade.

For example, when the lamp assembly 4 includes one light strip 41, after the air conditioner is powered on and operated, the detection module obtains the concentrations of formaldehyde, carbon dioxide, PM2.5, ozone, and the like in the indoor air at regular intervals, and after the obtaining is completed, the control module controls the light strip 41 to sequentially display the concentrations of formaldehyde, carbon dioxide, PM2.5, ozone, and the like. Specifically, the control module may display the formaldehyde concentration first, for example, the control module determines that the number of the light emitting devices 411 that need to be displayed is Y1 (e.g., 3) according to the serial number X1 corresponding to the formaldehyde concentration, and when obtaining that the corresponding air quality level is poor according to the current value of the formaldehyde concentration, the control module controls the light emitting devices 411 in the light strip 41 to emit light with continuous 3 light emitting devices 411 at one end and the light emitting color being red, and at this time, the user can visually know that the formaldehyde content in the room is high. Then, the control module displays the carbon dioxide concentration, for example, the control module determines that the number of the light emitting devices 411 that need to be displayed is Y2 (e.g., 6) according to the serial number X2 corresponding to the carbon dioxide concentration, and when it is obtained that the corresponding air quality level is general according to the current value of the carbon dioxide concentration, the control module controls one end of the light strip 41 to continuously emit light by 6 light emitting devices 411, and the light emitting color is yellow, at this time, the user can intuitively know that the content of carbon dioxide in the current room is general. According to the mode, the concentrations of PM2.5, ozone and the like are displayed in sequence, so that a user can visually know the quality of the current indoor air according to the display state of the lamp strip 41.

For another example, when the lamp assembly 4 includes a plurality of light strips 41 (the number of the light strips 41 may be set according to the number of the air quality parameters required to be displayed), the plurality of light strips 41 may be arranged at intervals, and each light strip 41 displays one air quality parameter, for example, a first light strip 41 displays formaldehyde concentration, a second light strip 41 displays carbon dioxide concentration, a third light strip 41 displays PM2.5 concentration, and a fourth light strip 41 displays ozone concentration, etc. Because different lamp areas 41 show different air quality parameters, so when showing, the number of light emitting device 411 can be the same also can be different, wherein, when the number of light emitting device 411 is different, each air quality parameter in the current indoor air can be known to the user more quickly. How to display specifically is the same as the previous example, except that there is only one light strip 41 in the previous example, and each air quality parameter needs to be displayed cyclically, but in this example, the corresponding light strip 41 is directly controlled to display. In practical application, the previous example is preferably adopted based on consideration of space, universality and the like, because when the detected air quality parameter is increased, only corresponding sensors are required to be added and the control program of the control module is required to be changed, the structure of the cabinet air conditioner is not required to be adjusted, and the function expansion is facilitated.

It should be noted that, the light strip 41 may display an air quality parameter and also display an operation mode (for example, cooling or heating) of the air conditioner, for example, two light strips 41 may be provided, one is used for displaying the air quality parameter, and the other is used for displaying the operation mode, where for displaying the operation mode, reference may be made to displaying the air quality parameter, and details are not described here. In addition, when the air quality grades of all the air quality parameters are good, that is, all the air quality parameters are displayed in green, the lamp strip 41 displays a plurality of colors at the same time to inform the user that the current air quality is good, and when the air quality grades of all the air quality parameters are poor, that is, all the air quality parameters are displayed in red, the lamp strip 41 displays red and continuously flickers to inform the user that the current air quality is poor. In addition, the user can also view any one air quality parameter through the control interface of the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

Therefore, by arranging the at least one lamp strip 41 around the support shell 31, a colorful visual effect can be brought to an indoor environment, a user can watch light emitted by the at least one lamp strip 41 from multiple angles, and the user can know the operation mode, indoor air quality parameters and the like of the air conditioner according to the light emitting state (such as light emitting color, light emitting number and the like) of the at least one lamp strip 41, so that the user can conveniently operate the air conditioner in the next step.

In addition, since the lamp strip 41 is relatively flexible, the lamp strip 41 is convenient to be disposed around the support shell 31, and the lamp strip 41 can be designed into various shapes such as figures or characters; the lamp strip 41 can be cut or connected in a extending manner, so that the lamp strip 41 can comprise at least one sub-lamp strip, and the length of the sub-lamp strip can be specifically set according to practical application, so that the lamp strip 41 has good diversity, and the applicability of the lamp strip 41 is improved; the lamp strip 41 has good insulating property and waterproof property, and is safer to use; the lamp strip 41 is not easy to break, and the service life of the lamp strip 41 is ensured.

The air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the indoor unit 100.

According to the air conditioner provided by the embodiment of the invention, by arranging the indoor unit 100 according to the embodiment of the invention, the indoor air quality can be improved, the occupied space is small, meanwhile, a user can visually know the current indoor air quality, and the user experience is greatly improved.

Fig. 20 is a flowchart of an air quality presentation method of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 20, the air quality prompting method of the air conditioner according to the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

s1, detecting indoor air quality to obtain each air quality parameter.

And S2, controlling the number of the light-emitting devices and the light-emitting color of the lamp strip according to each air quality parameter so that the air conditioner can send out air quality prompt information.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, each air quality parameter corresponds to a serial number (for example, the serial number corresponding to the formaldehyde concentration is X1, the serial number corresponding to the carbon dioxide concentration is X2, the serial number corresponding to the PM2.5 concentration is X3, and the serial number corresponding to the ozone concentration is X4), wherein the controlling of the number of the light emitting devices and the light emitting color of the light strip according to each air quality parameter includes: acquiring a corresponding serial number according to each air quality parameter, and acquiring an air quality grade (such as poor, normal and good) according to a current value of each air quality parameter; and controlling the number of the light emitting devices according to the serial number, and controlling the light emitting colors (such as red, yellow and green) of the lamp strip according to the air quality grade.

For example, when the lamp assembly comprises a lamp strip, after the air conditioner is started to operate, the concentrations of formaldehyde, carbon dioxide, PM2.5, ozone and the like in the indoor air are acquired at regular intervals, and after the acquisition is completed, the lamp strip is controlled to sequentially display the concentrations of formaldehyde, carbon dioxide, PM2.5, ozone and the like. Specifically, the formaldehyde concentration can be displayed first, for example, when the number of the light-emitting devices to be displayed is determined to be Y1 (e.g., 3) according to the serial number X1 corresponding to the formaldehyde concentration, so as to ensure that a user can clearly observe the formaldehyde concentration at a distance, and when the corresponding air quality level is obtained as a difference according to the current value of the formaldehyde concentration, 3 continuous light-emitting devices at one end of the control light strip emit light and the light-emitting color is red, and at this time, the user can visually know that the formaldehyde content in the current room is high. And then, displaying the carbon dioxide concentration, for example, when the number of the light-emitting devices needing to be displayed is determined to be Y2 (for example, 6) according to the serial number X2 corresponding to the carbon dioxide concentration, and when the corresponding air quality grade is obtained to be general according to the current value of the carbon dioxide concentration, controlling one end of the light strip to continuously emit light by 6 light-emitting devices and the light-emitting color to be yellow, and at the moment, a user can intuitively know that the content of the carbon dioxide in the current room is general. According to above-mentioned mode, show PM2.5 and ozone etc.'s concentration in proper order, the user can audio-visually know current indoor air quality according to the demonstration state in lamp area like this.

If the lamp assembly comprises a plurality of lamp strips (the number of the lamp strips can be set according to the number of the air quality parameters required to be displayed), the lamp strips can be arranged at intervals, and each lamp strip displays one air quality parameter, for example, a first lamp strip displays formaldehyde concentration, a second lamp strip displays carbon dioxide concentration, a third lamp strip displays PM2.5 concentration, a fourth lamp strip displays ozone concentration and the like. Because different lamp areas show different air quality parameters, so when showing, the number of light emitting device can be the same also can be different, wherein, when the number of light emitting device is different, each air quality parameter in the current indoor air can be known more quickly to the user. How to display the air quality parameter is the same as that of the previous example, except that only one lamp strip is provided in the previous example, each air quality parameter needs to be displayed circularly, and in the example, the corresponding lamp strip is directly controlled to display the air quality parameter. In practical application, the above example is preferably adopted based on considerations of space, universality and the like, because when the detected air quality parameter is increased, only corresponding sensors are required to be added and corresponding control programs are required to be changed, the structure of the air conditioner is not required to be adjusted, and function expansion is facilitated.

It should be noted that the light strip may display the air quality parameter and also display an operation mode (for example, cooling or heating) of the air conditioner, for example, two light strips may be used, one is used for displaying the air quality parameter, and the other is used for displaying the operation mode, where for displaying the operation mode, reference may be made to displaying the air quality parameter, and details are not described herein. In addition, when the air quality grades of all the air quality parameters are good, namely all the air quality parameters are displayed in green, the lamp strip displays multiple colors simultaneously to inform a user that the current air quality is good, and when the air quality grades of all the air quality parameters are poor, namely all the air quality parameters are displayed in red, the lamp strip displays red and continuously flickers to inform the user that the current air quality is poor. In addition, the user can also view any one air quality parameter through the control interface of the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

Therefore, a user can know the operation mode of the air conditioner, indoor air quality parameters and the like according to the light emitting state (such as light emitting color, light emitting number and the like) of at least one light strip, so that the user can conveniently perform next operation on the air conditioner, and meanwhile, the light emitting of the light strip can bring colorful visual effects to the indoor environment.
