Referring to fig. 1 and 2, fig. 1 is a schematic view illustrating an air guide assembly of an air conditioner according to the present invention, and fig. 2 is a schematic view illustrating a structure of the air guide assembly of the air conditioner according to the present invention. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the air conditioner of the present invention includes a housing 1 and an air outlet 11 provided on the housing 1. The shell 1 is internally provided with a heat exchange device and an air supply device of the air conditioner, and the air supply device is arranged corresponding to an air duct in the shell 1 so as to blow out cold or hot air to the indoor through the air duct in the shell 1 after transferring heat or cold to the air in the shell 1. The air conditioner also comprises an air guide assembly capable of controlling the flow direction of cold air flow or hot air flow. Specifically, the air guide assembly includes an air guide plate 2 rotatably connected to the casing and an air guide protrusion 3 provided in the casing 1. Wherein, the air deflector 2 can open or close the air outlet 1 in a rotating manner. In the case of an open, inclined position of the air deflector 2, according to the orientation of fig. 1, the upward surface on the right side of the air deflector 2 is the windward side (i.e. the surface facing the air duct inside the housing 1), and the downward surface on the left side of the air deflector 2 is the leeward side (i.e. the surface facing away from the air duct inside the housing 1). The air deflector 2 divides the outlet 11 into an inlet portion 111 and a leeward portion 112. The windward portion 111 is a portion close to the windward side of the air deflector 2, and the leeward portion 112 is a portion close to the leeward side of the air deflector 2. The user can control the opening angle of the air guide plate 2 by the control device of the air conditioner, so that the air guide plate 2 can guide the air current in the casing 1 to flow to the indoor through the air inlet part 111 along the opening angle. The air guide protrusion 3 is configured to guide a part of the air flow in the housing 1 to flow to the outside through the back air opening portion 112 when the air guide plate 2 is opened.
By providing the air guide protrusion 3 in the casing 1, the air flow flowing near the air guide protrusion 3 in the casing 1 can change the flow direction under the influence of the coanda effect, and the air flow is guided to the vicinity of the leeward portion 112 by the air guide protrusion 3 and flows out to the indoor through the leeward portion 112. Under the combined guide effect of the air deflector 2 and the air guide protrusion 3, one part of the air flow in the shell 1 directly flows through the air inlet part 111 to the indoor, and the other part of the air flow flows to the outside of the shell 1 in two modes of directly flowing through the back air inlet part 112 and being guided by the air guide protrusion 3 and then flowing through the back air inlet part 112, so that the air flow on the back air side of the air deflector 2 is increased, the air flow on the windward side and the air flow on the back air side of the air deflector 2 are balanced, the air pressure difference between the back air side of the air deflector 2 and the windward side due to too small air flow is avoided, and the problem that the air flow flowing along the windward side is difficult to stably flow along the guide angle due to the influence of the air pressure. The air outlet effect of the air conditioner is optimized to a great extent.
In a specific embodiment, the wind guide protrusion 3 has a triangular prism structure. The triangular prism structure is arranged along the length direction of the air outlet 11. Specifically, fig. 1 is a schematic structural view obtained by cutting the air conditioner in a lateral direction. The triangular prism structure is triangular in cross-section, oriented downwards in the orientation of fig. 1. The upward face of the triangular prism is the windward face of the air supply device in the housing 1. The windward side is inclined toward the back tuyere portion 112 so as to intercept a part of the airflow flowing toward the windward portion 111 in the casing 1 and cause the part of the airflow to flow along the windward side of the triangular prism, and the intercepted part of the airflow is guided to the back tuyere portion 112 position, thereby increasing the airflow volume of the back tuyere portion 112. As an example, the shape of the cross section of the above triangular prism structure is a right triangle. The prismatic surface formed by extending the hypotenuse of the right triangle along the length direction is the windward side. Through setting up the protruding 3 of wind-guiding into the triangular prism structure, can guarantee the protruding 3 of wind-guiding and casing 1's reliability of being connected for the spoilage of wind-guiding is lower, and the protruding 3 of wind-guiding state is comparatively firm during the wind-guiding, can not appear the noise of quivering when being strikeed by the air current.
Further, the windward side of the triangular prism structure is an inwardly concave arc-shaped face (the lateral arc shape of the arc-shaped face is similar to the dotted arc shape shown in fig. 1) extending toward the back wind opening portion 112. When above-mentioned windward side is the arc curved surface to the inside recess of triangular prism structure, compare with straight windward side, on the one hand, the flow path of arc curved surface is longer, it tends to stably at the in-process that flows along this arc curved surface to make the flow state of air current more easily, improved the condition that the air current is direct to bounce to other positions by windward side striking rear portion air current with straight face collision, reduced the disturbance of the air current in the wind channel of casing 1, can not cause harmful effects to the air current of normal flow through windward side part 111. On the other hand, the arc-shaped curved surface is easier to be arranged into a shape capable of being well butted with the leeward portion 112, so that most of intercepted airflow can be guided to the vicinity of the leeward portion 112, and the guiding effect is better.
Referring to fig. 2 and continuing to refer to fig. 1, fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of an air guiding assembly of an air conditioner according to the present invention. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, in order to reduce the influence of the wind guide protrusion 3 on the normal wind outlet path (i.e. the wind flows out through the wind inlet portion 111), in a specific embodiment, the dimension of the triangular prism structure is designed as follows: the length dimension of the triangular prism structure is equal to the length dimension of the air outlet 11. Of course, the length of the triangular prism structure may be larger than or slightly smaller than the length of the air outlet 11, so as to avoid that the entire back air inlet portion 112 is difficult to uniformly exhaust air when the length of the triangular prism structure is too small. The width and height dimensions of the triangular prism structure need to be set in combination with the specific width dimension of the air outlet, so as to avoid the triangular prism structure blocking excessive air flow and reducing the air flow of the air inlet part 111. As an example, when the width of the air inlet is 41 mm, the width dimension a of the projection of the windward side of the triangular prism structure on the horizontal plane is 10 mm, so as to reserve a normal airflow flow path with the width dimension n of 31 mm for the windward port portion 111. The width dimension b of the projection of the windward side of the triangular prism structure on the vertical plane is 20 mm. The vertical height dimension m from the lowest point of the triangular prism structure to the outer surface of the housing 1 is 50 mm. Of course, when the air guiding requirement, the size of the air outlet 11, the fixing position of the air deflector 2, or the common opening angle, etc. are changed, those skilled in the art can adaptively adjust any one of the above size parameters.
Although the air guide protrusions 3 are described with reference to triangular prisms, the present invention is not limited thereto, and in fact, the air guide protrusions 3 may be specifically shaped to guide a portion of the airflow in the housing 1 to the position of the back air opening portion 112. For example, when only the air guiding requirement is taken into consideration, the air guiding projection 3 may have a plate-like air guiding structure provided obliquely toward the leeward portion 112.
In order to avoid increasing the demoulding difficulty of the shell 1, the wind guide bulge 3 and the shell 1 adopt a split type structural design. In one possible embodiment, the wind-guiding projection 3 is a plastic part made of ABS plastic, polycarbonate material (PC material), or the like. The plastic member is connected to the interior of the housing 1 by welding, adhesive bonding, or the like. Because the connection mode does not need other auxiliary connection components, the increase of shelters except the wind guide bulge 3 in the wind channel of the shell 1 can be avoided.
In order to further enhance the air supply effect of the air conditioner, the air guide assembly of the air conditioner of the present invention preferably further includes an air guide rail 4 disposed in the casing 1. The air guide rail 4 is provided so as to guide the air flow flowing toward the leeward opening portion 112 to flow along the leeward surface of the air guide plate 2. As shown in fig. 1, since the air flow passing through the back air inlet portion 112 is located below the leeward surface of the air deflector 2, a portion of the air flow passing through the back air inlet portion 112, which is far away from the leeward surface of the air deflector 2, is difficult to flow in the guiding direction of the air deflector 2. Through the arrangement of the air guide rail 4, most of the air flow can be guided to the vicinity of the leeward surface of the air guide plate 2 in the process of flowing through the leeward opening part 112, so that the air flow is promoted to flow along the leeward surface of the air guide plate 2, and the stable flowing state of the air flow of the leeward opening part 112 is further ensured. Under the condition that the air flows of the windward part 111 and the leeward part 112 flow along the air deflector 2, the difference between the air flow rates of the windward surface and the leeward surface of the air deflector 2 reaches the minimum, the balance degree of the air flow states of the windward surface and the leeward surface of the air deflector 2 is higher, so that the whole air flow state of the air outlet 11 is more stable, and the air outlet effect is further improved. In addition, when the difference of the air flow on the windward side and the leeward side of the air deflector 2 is small, the temperature difference of the air contacted with the windward side and the leeward side of the air deflector basically does not exist, and the condensation phenomenon of the air deflector 2 is basically avoided.
Further, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the air guide rail 4 is a curved rail that is concave (i.e., concave toward the inside of the casing 1). The radian of the curved track is arranged corresponding to the leeward side of the air deflector 2. Under the common guidance of the curved track and the leeward surface of the air deflector 2, the air current flowing through the leeward port part 112 can stably flow along the air guiding direction of the air deflector 2. Of course, the air guide rail 4 may be provided with a structure other than a curved surface rail, such as an inclined surface structure, in a case where the guiding requirement is satisfied.
Referring to fig. 3 and 4, fig. 3 is a diagram illustrating an effect of airflow (warm air) of a conventional air conditioner at a set airflow angle, and fig. 4 is a diagram illustrating an effect of airflow (warm air) of an air conditioner according to the present invention at the same set airflow angle. As shown in fig. 3, when the airflow angle is set to 35 °, the airflow blown out by the conventional air conditioner flows in a direction deviated from 35 ° after flowing out of the outlet. As can be seen from fig. 3, when the air conditioner heats, the warm air flow deviates upward relative to the 35 ° direction, or when the air conditioner cools, the cold air flow deviates downward relative to the 35 ° direction (not shown in the figure), so that the cold air blows directly and the warm air moves upward, the air conditioner is unstable in air outlet, and the user experience is poor. As can be seen from fig. 4, it is obvious that most of the air flow blown out when the air conditioner provided with the air guide assembly blows out air can stably flow along the set direction of 35 °, the flow state is stable, the corresponding blowing position meets the expectations of users, and the air-out effect is greatly improved.
In a preferred embodiment, the casing 1 of the air conditioner of the present invention is provided with a plurality of outlets 11 and a plurality of air guide members, and one air guide member is disposed for each outlet 11. The air guide plate 2 of the air guide assembly arranged at each air outlet can be independently regulated and controlled so as to enable the air conditioner to supply air in a multi-direction and multi-angle mode.
In summary, the air guiding assembly of the air conditioner of the present invention includes an air guiding plate 2 rotatably connected to the casing 1, and an air guiding protrusion 3 and an air guiding rail 4 disposed in the casing 1. When the air deflector is opened, the air guide protrusion 3 can guide part of the air flow in the shell 1 to the vicinity of the leeward opening part 112, and the air guide rail 4 can guide the part of the air flow to flow along the leeward surface of the air deflector 2, so that the air flow on the leeward side of the air deflector 2 is increased, and the flow stability of the side air flow can be ensured. The whole air outlet effect of the air conditioner is improved, condensation of the air deflector 2 due to the temperature difference between the windward side and the leeward side is avoided, and user experience is excellent.
