Referring first to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the purification module for an air conditioner of the present invention will be described. Among them, FIG. 1 is a schematic structural view of a purification module for an air conditioner of the present invention; FIG. 2 is a schematic front view of a purification module for an air conditioner of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the purification module 1 for an air conditioner of the present invention mainly includes a housing 11 , a purification unit 12 , an air guiding unit (not shown in the figure) and a fan 14 . The purification unit 12 is arranged inside the casing 11, and it is arranged to allow air to pass through and filter the air; the air guide unit includes an air inlet pipe 131 and an air outlet pipe 132 arranged on the casing 11; the fan 14 is arranged inside the casing 11 , and the fan 14 is set to be able to introduce outdoor air into the housing 11 through the air inlet pipe 131 , and after the outdoor air passes through the purification unit 12 , it is drawn out of the housing 11 through the air outlet pipe 132 .

After the purification module 1 is installed on the wall-mounted air conditioner, the air inlet pipe 131 is communicated with the outside, and the air outlet pipe 132 can be communicated with the air inlet of the air conditioner. In this way, when the wall-mounted air conditioner is working, the Purification module 1 is switched on. At this time, driven by the fan 14, the outdoor air enters the casing 11 through the air inlet pipe 131, and after passing through the purification unit 12, enters the air inlet of the air conditioner through the air outlet pipe 132, and finally enters the room from the air outlet of the air conditioner. .

As can be seen from the above description, the purification module 1 for an air conditioner of the present invention introduces the outdoor air into the casing 11 and further introduces the air conditioner after passing through the purification unit 12, so that the air conditioner can be used during operation. At the same time, fresh air is introduced and filtered. In other words, through the above setting method, the present invention not only introduces the purified outdoor air, but also ensures the oxygen content of the indoor air, and truly realizes the multi-purpose of the air conditioner, that is, the air conditioning function, the fresh air function and the purification function. A high degree of uniformity, and thus also saves interior space and reduces living costs.

Referring further to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, in a preferred embodiment, the housing 11 further includes a casing 111 and an end cover 112, and a snap-in structure 113 is arranged inside the casing 111, and the purification unit 12 can preferably be an IFD filter The IFD filter is clamped in the casing 111 through the clamping structure 113, and the fan 14 can preferably be a cross-flow fan, which is arranged on the air outlet side of the IFD. Preferably, two air inlet pipes 131 can be provided, one is arranged at the end of the housing 111 close to the air inlet side of the IFD filter, and the other is arranged at the end of the end cover 112 near the air inlet side of the IFD filter. The air outlet pipe 132 is preferably disposed at one end of the casing 111 close to the air outlet of the cross-flow fan.

It should be noted that the IFD filter is the most advanced and efficient technology among the existing dust removal technologies. It has the characteristics of cleanability, low operating noise, good economy, small size, and strong safety and effectiveness. The English full name of IFD is IntenseField Dielectric——refers to the strong electric field using dielectric material as the carrier. IFD filter is usually composed of pre-filter layer, charging layer and particle adsorption layer. The dielectric material forms a honeycomb hollow microchannel, and the dielectric wraps the electrode sheet in the channel A strong electric field is formed inside, which exerts a huge attraction on the charged particles moving in the air, and can absorb almost 100% of the moving particles in the air while only generating the minimum airflow resistance, especially for PM2.5 and other particle pollutants. .

Continuing to refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , in a more preferred embodiment, the air guide unit further includes an air guide baffle 133 disposed on the end cover 112 , and the air guide baffle 133 is configured to be able to direct the air outlet of the fan 14 The exhausted air is guided to the air outlet duct 132 . An access cover 114 is also provided on the housing 111 , and the access cover 114 is configured to allow the IFD module to move out of the housing 11 when opened.

According to the orientation shown in Figure 2, the IFD filter is obliquely placed in the casing 111 through the clamping structure 113 and divides the casing 111 into upper and lower cavities, the lower left side is the air inlet side, and the upper right side is the air outlet side, Two air inlet pipes 131 are respectively arranged on the lower part of the left side of the casing 111 and the front lower part of the end cover 112 to ensure that outdoor air can enter the air inlet side of the IFD filter through the lower cavity. The cross-flow fan is installed next to the air outlet side of the IFD filter, and the air outlet of the cross-flow fan is facing the air outlet pipe 132 on the upper rear side of the casing 111. When the cross-flow fan is running, it passes through the outlet side of the IFD filter. The negative pressure drives the air through the IFD filter, making the air flow more stable. Continuing to follow the orientation shown in Figure 2, the air guide baffle 133 is arranged on the back upper part of the end cover 112. After the end cover 112 is covered with the casing 111, the air guide baffle 133 just connects the air outlet pipe 132 and the cross-flow fan. The air outlet is surrounded by a relatively closed space, so that all the air discharged from the air outlet of the cross-flow fan is discharged through the air outlet pipe 132 . The lower right end of the casing 111 is provided with an inspection cover 114 , the upper left part of the IFD filter is locked in the engaging structure 113 , and the lower right part is against the inspection cover 114 . The access cover 114 can be fastened to the casing 111 by buckles or magnetic buckles. When the access cover 114 is opened, the IFD filter can be taken out from the casing 111 for cleaning or replacement.

The advantage of the above arrangement is that: by building the IFD purification module 1 in the casing 111, the effect of ventilation can be realized without opening the window, and the outdoor fresh air can be easily brought into the room, and the pollutants in the outdoor air can be effectively removed. Particle pollutants to ensure indoor air quality and oxygen content. Since the IFD filter has the advantages of low noise, low cost, cleanability, and small size, the installation of the inspection cover 114 on the casing 111 can also facilitate the cleaning and replacement of the IFD filter. The setting of the air guide partition 133 can improve the operation effect of the cross-flow fan, and then improve the air intake volume and oxygenation effect of the outdoor air. In addition, there are two air inlet pipes 131, so that users can choose one of the appropriate air inlet pipes 131 to arrange the pipeline according to their needs, and seal the other one with a sealing plug, which increases the user's options and improves the utilization of indoor space. Rate.

Of course, the above-mentioned preferred implementation manners are not static, and those skilled in the art can also adjust them so as to meet more specific application scenarios. For example, the form of the clamping structure 113 is not unique, as long as the IFD filter can be clamped in the structure of the casing 111; the fan 14 can also be a centrifugal fan; the IFD filter can also be placed horizontally in the casing 111 At this time, the inspection end cover 112 can be correspondingly arranged on the casing 111 at one end of the IFD filter; for another example, the fan 14 can also be arranged on the air inlet side of the IFD filter, and the fan 14 can add air to the air through the air outlet. Pressurize the air through the IFD filter.

Next, referring to FIG. 3 , the wall-mounted air conditioner of the present invention will be described. Wherein, FIG. 3 is a structural schematic diagram of a wall-mounted air conditioner with a purification module for an air conditioner of the present invention.

As shown in Figure 3, the present invention also provides a wall-mounted air conditioner 2, the air conditioner 2 includes an air inlet 21, an air outlet 22 and the above-mentioned purification module 1 for the air conditioner 2, the air inlet of the purification module 1 The pipe 131 communicates with the outside, and the air outlet pipe 132 communicates with the air inlet 21 of the air conditioner 2, for example, through any one of the two air inlet pipes 131. Plug into the air inlet 21 of the air conditioner 2. Preferably, the purification module 1 can be hung on one end of the wall-mounted air conditioner 2 in an external manner, as shown in FIG. internal. Further preferably, the air conditioner 2 is also provided with a carbon dioxide detection module, and the air conditioner 2 is configured to be able to control the start and stop of the fan 14 in the purification module 1 based on the indoor carbon dioxide content detected by the carbon dioxide detection module. Obviously, those skilled in the art can understand that the carbon dioxide detection module can also be replaced by an oxygen detection module.

After the purification module 1 is added to the wall-mounted air conditioner 2, each operation mode of the air conditioner 2 can be combined with the purification function. Of course, the purification function can also be operated independently, and the purification function can be opened manually, or it can be used with the carbon dioxide detection module. It is automatically turned on by the control chip of the air conditioner 2 or the exclusive remote control. Taking the cooling mode as an example, during the cooling process, if the carbon dioxide detection module detects that the current indoor carbon dioxide content exceeds the upper threshold, the control chip of the air conditioner 2 controls the fan 14 of the purification module 1 to start, that is, the purification function is turned on, and the filtered The outdoor air is sent into the air inlet 21 of the air conditioner 2, and then sent into the room through the air outlet 22 of the air conditioner 2 to increase oxygen; if the carbon dioxide detection module detects that the indoor carbon dioxide content reaches the lower limit threshold, the control chip of the air conditioner 2 Control the fan 14 of the purification module 1 to stop running. Of course, in addition to the cooling mode, the purification function can also be operated simultaneously with the heating mode, dehumidification mode, humidification mode, and air supply mode, or the purification function can be operated independently.

It can be seen that by installing a purification module 1 on the wall-mounted air conditioner 2, the present invention can truly realize the multi-purpose of the air conditioner 2 without affecting the appearance of the wall-mounted air conditioner 2, that is, air The high degree of unity of adjustment function, fresh air function and purification function reduces the cost of users to purchase purifiers or replace air conditioners, and saves indoor space.

Finally, it should be noted that although this embodiment is described as a wall-mounted air conditioner 2, this description is only used to illustrate the principle of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Under the condition of principle, those skilled in the art can apply the purification module 1 for the wall-mounted air conditioner 2 of the present invention to other air conditioning devices. For example, the purification module 1 can also be set in a cabinet air conditioner, a fresh air system or a central air conditioning system.

So far, the technical solutions of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings, but those skilled in the art will easily understand that the protection scope of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principles of the present invention, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
