And a fan can be arranged in the upper air duct and the lower air duct respectively, and double fans can supply air, so that the air supply quantity is large.
Alternatively, the damper door may be rotatably or slidably disposed within the duct 100.
The air blocking door is rotatably arranged in the air duct 100 and comprises a rotating shaft and a baffle 4 body which are fixedly connected, the rotating shaft is in transmission connection with a motor, and the baffle 4 body rotates along with the rotating shaft after the motor is started, so that the baffle 4 body opens or closes the air duct; the baffle 4 body is attached to the inner wall of the air duct in the opening state, and resistance can not be generated to air flow.
As shown in fig. 5, the cabinet air conditioner according to the present invention includes a front decorative plate 400, a heat exchanger 300, an air intake panel 200, and any one of the air ducts 100, wherein the heat exchanger 300 and the air duct 100 are disposed in a space surrounded by the decorative plate and the air intake panel 200.
For each air duct outlet, when the air blocking door is opened, the air duct is smooth, and air can be discharged; when the wind screen is closed, the air duct is cut off, and air outlet cannot be realized. The problem of random switching of air outlet, air outlet down, air outlet from top to bottom on the cabinet air conditioner can be realized by controlling the opening and closing of the two air blocking doors, so that the diversified air supply mode of the air conditioner is improved.
In an alternative embodiment, the heat exchanger 300 is disposed near the air intake panel 200, and after the air flows through the air intake 201 on the air intake panel 200, the heat exchanger 300 and the air duct 100 in sequence, the air is blown out by the upper air outlet 401 and/or the lower air outlet 402 on the front decorative panel 400.
The heat exchanger 300 is disposed near the air intake panel 200, and after passing through the air intake 201 on the air intake panel 200, the heat exchanger 300, and the air duct 100 in sequence, the air is blown out from the upper air supply outlet 401 and/or the lower air supply outlet 402 on the front decorative plate 400. The mode of firstly exchanging heat and then blowing by the fan 5 creates conditions for realizing various air outlet modes.
As an optional embodiment, the air inlet 201 and the heat exchanger 300 are disposed corresponding to the fan 5.
The air inlet 201, the heat exchanger 300 and the fan 5 are arranged correspondingly, the air flow resistance is small, the circulation path is short, and the energy consumption is low.
As an alternative embodiment, the air conditioner further includes a support chassis 500, and the intake panel 200 and the front decorative plate 400 are embedded in the support chassis 500.
The specific embodiment of the invention provides a vertical cabinet, a heat exchanger 300 is designed at an air inlet 201 of the vertical cabinet, air passes through the heat exchanger 300, the temperature of the air changes, and the air with the changed temperature enters an air duct system under the action of a fan 5. The air duct 100 of this type has two air outlets, one above the other, which are respectively in butt joint with two air supply outlets of the air conditioner casing, and air is blown out from the air supply outlets of the air conditioner through the air duct. The upper air duct and the lower air duct of the air duct are both designed with baffle 4 structures which can be opened and closed, and for each air duct outlet, when the baffle 4 is opened, the air duct is smooth, so that air can be exhausted; when baffle 4 closed, the windscreen was stopped, can not realize the air-out. By controlling the opening and closing of the two baffles 4, the switching of a plurality of states of the air outlet from the upper part to the lower part and the air outlet from the upper part to the lower part of the air conditioner can be realized.
The air conditioner of the invention uses the single centrifugal fan 5, under the starting state, the fan 5 runs to generate suction, suck the air into the air conditioner from the air inlet 201 of the air inlet panel 200; air entering from the air inlet 201 of the air inlet panel 200 firstly exchanges heat through the air conditioner heat exchanger 300, and the temperature of the air changes. The air after heat exchange enters the air duct under the action of the centrifugal fan 5, and then enters the two air outlet channels (the upper air duct 1 and the lower air duct 2). The two air outlet channels are respectively designed with a baffle 4 structure which can be independently controlled to open and close, and the switches of the two baffles 4 can be independently controlled in a starting state. The mode of specifically controlling the air-out switching is as follows:
the upper baffle 4 is opened singly to realize single upper air outlet; the lower baffle 4 is opened singly to realize single lower air outlet; and the upper baffle 4 and the lower baffle 4 are opened simultaneously to realize the up-and-down air outlet.
As an optional implementation mode, the lower air outlet 21 moves up to the waist of the air conditioner, and the internal air duct structure moves up synchronously; and an air guide structure is arranged at the lower air outlet 21.
In consideration of the air-conditioning blowing comfort, cold air is blown upwards without blowing people, and hot air is blown against the ground more comfortably, so the upper air outlet 21 and the lower air outlet 21 are designed and flexibly adjusted according to the situation. If the lower air outlet 21 moves up to the waist position of the air conditioner body and then a downward air guide structure is designed, hot air can be guided to the ground within a short distance, so that the purpose of being attached to the ground is achieved, and the same comfort effect is obtained.
The above description is only for the specific embodiments of the present invention, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of the changes or substitutions within the technical scope of the present invention, and all the changes or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
