The throttling element 521 can be integrated in the evaporator 32 or can be independent of the evaporator 32, and in the case that the throttling element 521 is independent of the evaporator 32, the throttling element 521 and the evaporator 32 are also connected through a section of the pipeline 5; the electronic control unit 8 is electrically connected to the compressor 2, the condensation-side fan 41, and the condensation-side fan 42, respectively.

Referring to fig. 1 to 5, the housing 1 includes a bottom wall 11 extending horizontally and a side wall 12 extending vertically upward from an edge of the bottom wall 11. The side walls 12 include a first side wall 121, a second side wall 122, a third side wall 123, a fourth side wall 124, a fifth side wall 125, and a sixth side wall 126, which are connected in order from end to end. In the embodiment of the present application, since the bottom wall 11 is a rectangle including two long sides and two short sides (the square is a special rectangle, and the square bottom wall 11 having the same long sides and short sides is also covered by the present application), the third side wall 123 and the fourth side wall 124 are integrally formed on one long side of the bottom wall 11, the first side wall 121 and the sixth side wall 126 are integrally formed on the other long side of the bottom wall 11, and the second side wall 122 and the fifth side wall 125 are respectively located on two opposite short sides of the bottom wall 11. The housing 1 further includes a first partition 13 extending upward perpendicular to the bottom wall 11 and disposed in parallel between the second side wall 122 and the fifth side wall 125, one end of the first partition 13 is disposed vertically at a junction between the first side wall 121 and the sixth side wall 126, and the other end of the first partition 13 is disposed vertically at a junction between the fourth side wall 124 and the third side wall 123. It is emphasized that: the "junction" herein includes two forms of "integral connection" and "split connection: that is, the first side wall 121 and the sixth side wall 126 may be integrally connected to each other by the same plate, or may be separately connected to each other by two plate-shaped plates. Similarly, the fourth side wall 124 and the third side wall 123 may be integrally connected to each other by the same plate, or may be formed by separate plates. "integrally connected" is an alternative embodiment of the present application. Thus, the first side wall 121, the second side wall 122, the third side wall 123 and the first partition 13 enclose the first chamber 101 for circulating hot air. The first partition 13, the fourth side wall 124, the fifth side wall 125, and the sixth side wall 126 enclose the second chamber 102 for circulating cool air. The first partition 13 separates the gas environments of the first chamber 101 and the second chamber 102, so that the hot air of the first chamber 101 and the cold air of the second chamber 102 can not interfere with each other in the working state of the air conditioner 100 according to the present application.

As described above, in the first embodiment of the present application, the first side wall 121, the second side wall 122, the third side wall 123 and the first partition 13 together enclose the first rectangular first chamber 101, the fourth side wall 124, the fifth side wall 125, the sixth side wall 126 and the first partition 13 together enclose the second rectangular second chamber 102, that is, "the third side wall 123 and the fourth side wall 124 are on one long side of the bottom wall 11, the first side wall 121 and the sixth side wall 126 are on the other long side of the bottom wall 11, the second side wall 122 and the fifth side wall 125 are on two opposite short sides of the bottom wall 11", and it is described that the first rectangular first chamber 101 and the second rectangular second chamber 102 form a large rectangular chamber.

In the second embodiment of the present application, even the parallel relationship between the first side wall 121 and the third side wall 123, the second side wall 122 and the first partition 13, the fourth side wall 124 and the sixth side wall 126, and the fifth side wall 125 and the first partition 13 is not necessary, and only a square receiving space is required, for example: the first side wall 121, the second side wall 122, the third side wall 123 and the first partition 13 enclose together to form a first isosceles trapezoid first chamber 101, the fourth side wall 124, the fifth side wall 125, the sixth side wall 126 and the first partition 13 enclose together to form a second isosceles trapezoid second chamber 102, and the two isosceles trapezoid first chambers 101 and second chambers 102 share a lower bottom edge (namely the first partition 13) to form a large regular hexagon chamber.

The housing 1 further comprises a top wall, i.e. an upper cover (not shown) of the air conditioner in general terms, arranged opposite the bottom wall 11, which top wall substantially closes the first chamber 101 and the second chamber 102. In other embodiments, a top wall may not be provided. For example: an air conditioner without an upper cover is buckled and installed on a kitchen roof, and a closed cavity is formed by the roof.

The compressor 2, the condenser 31, and the condensation-side fan 41 are housed in the first chamber 101. The evaporator 32 and the evaporation side fan 42 are housed in the second chamber 102. Both the condenser 31 and the evaporator 32 are heat exchangers, both following the working principle of the heat exchangers. In the present embodiment, the refrigerant in the condenser 31 and the refrigerant in the evaporator 32 exchange heat with air, but since the temperature of the refrigerant in the condenser 31 is different from the temperature of the refrigerant in the evaporator 32, the high-temperature refrigerant in the condenser 31 has an effect of raising the temperature of the air, and the low-temperature refrigerant in the evaporator 32 has an effect of lowering the temperature of the air.

The compressor 2 has a discharge port, as is well known. Referring to fig. 1 to 5, the compressor 2 includes a head 21 and a tail 22 disposed opposite to the head 21. The head 21 and the tail 22 of the compressor 2 are arranged along the length of the compressor 2. The discharge port of the compressor 2 is closer to the head 21. The bottom of the head 21 and the bottom of the tail 22 are both provided with a fixing bracket 23, and the fixing bracket 23 is connected with the bottom wall 11 through an elastic member 24, so that the compressor 2 is elastically arranged on the bottom wall 11, and the elastic member 24 can absorb a part of vibration generated when the compressor 2 is started, thereby reducing noise. The compressor 2 is a horizontal compressor, the condenser 31 is at least partially located at one side of the head 21 of the compressor 2 far away from the tail 22 along the length direction of the compressor 2, the tail 22 is closer to the condensation side fan 41 than the head 21, the tail 22 is provided with mechanical moving parts of the compressor 2, the mechanical moving parts comprise a cylinder, a stator, a rotor, a piston and the like, the stator and the rotor are basically located in the middle of the horizontal compressor, the cylinder and the piston are basically located in the tail 22 of the horizontal compressor, and the head 21 of the horizontal compressor is basically not provided with more moving parts, so that the noise source of the horizontal compressor is more concentrated at the latter half part between the middle part and the tail 22, which is the prior art in the field, and the application is not repeated. The working principles of the cylinder, stator, rotor and piston in the compressor 2 are well known in the art, and the present application is not repeated.

The condensation-side fan 41 is fixedly provided on the inner wall surface of the first side wall 121, and in this embodiment, the condenser 31 is provided on the inner wall surface of the second side wall 122 and the inner wall surface of the third side wall 123 in an L-shaped bent manner in order to satisfy the heat exchange requirement. In other embodiments, the condenser 31 may be disposed only on the inner wall surface of the second side wall 122 or only on the inner wall surface of the third side wall 123. Alternatively, the compressor 2 is disposed at an intermediate position of the first chamber 101, and the first direction in which the head portion 21 extends toward the tail portion 22 coincides with the extending direction of the first partition 13. Alternatively, the length direction of the compressor 2, i.e., the first direction extending from the head 21 to the tail 22 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the first motor 411 in the condensing side fan 41, which is more convenient for the discharge of hot air. The compressor 2 may be placed in the first housing chamber 101 at an angle (for example, at an angle of 45 degrees) as long as the tail 22 is ensured to be closer to the condenser-side fan 41 than the head 21 is and the head 21 is ensured to be closer to the condenser 31 than the tail 22 is.

The second side wall 122 and/or the third side wall 123 are provided with a condensation side air inlet 1201, and the condenser 31 is fixedly arranged beside the condensation side air inlet 1201. The condenser 31 is internally provided with a refrigerant circulation channel, so that air outside the shell 1 and above the kitchen ceiling enters the first chamber 101 through the condensation side air inlet 1201, exchanges heat with the condenser 31 fixed at the position of the condensation side air inlet 1201, and hot air after heat exchange is discharged out of the first chamber 101 by the condensation side fan 41. In the actual installation process, the air return panel is arranged on the kitchen ceiling, and the condensing side air inlet 1201 is communicated with the air return panel on the kitchen ceiling, so that the indoor air below the kitchen ceiling is used as the air supplement above the kitchen ceiling, and the heat exchange efficiency of the air conditioner is improved.

The condenser 31 is provided with a pipe through which a cooling medium can flow, and a passage through which air can flow is formed on the peripheral side of the pipe. The passage in the condenser 31 communicates with the first chamber 101 so that air can exchange heat with the refrigerant in the pipe through the wall of the pipe as it passes through the passage. The condenser 31 is not necessarily limited to an L-shape, and the L-shape of the condenser 31 is only for the purpose of corresponding to the two condensation side air inlets 1201, and the need for increasing the heat exchange amount is satisfied.

In particular embodiments, condenser 31 may be a multi-pass heat exchanger. For example, the heat exchanger can be a copper tube fin type heat exchanger or a micro-channel heat exchanger with flat tubes and a collecting tube. The use of a microchannel heat exchanger is advantageous in reducing the weight of the condenser 31 and reducing the size of the condenser 31. The flat tube is generally provided with a plurality of channels for flowing the cooling medium therein. And an air circulation channel is formed between the flat pipes. Adjacent channels are isolated from each other, a plurality of channels are arranged in a row to jointly influence the width of the flat tube, the whole flat tube is flat, the length of the flat tube is larger than the width, and the width of the flat tube is larger than the thickness of the flat tube. The length direction of the flat tube is the flow direction of the refrigerant determined by the channel in the flat tube. The length direction of the flat tube can be linear, broken line type, bent type or the like. The flat tube is not limited to this type, and may be of other forms.

Referring to fig. 1, 3 and 4, the condensing side fan 41 includes a first casing 413, a first motor 411 and at least one first impeller (not shown). In this embodiment, the first impellers are two, the first motor 411 is disposed at a middle position of the two first impellers, and the first motor 411 drives the two first impellers to coaxially rotate. The condensing side fan 41 adopts a direct current fan, and the direct current fan has large air quantity, so that the air in the first chamber 101 can be rapidly discharged. The direct current fan has high pressure head, and can prolong the length of the exhaust pipe so as to ensure that the air in the first chamber 101 is exhausted outdoors. The shell height of the direct current fan is below 200mm, the thickness of the whole air conditioner 100 can be reduced, and the installation scene is more abundant and various. The direct current fan noise is low, and user's use experience is felt better.

The first side wall 121 is provided with at least one condensing side air outlet 1203, and in the present embodiment, two condensing side air outlets 1203 are provided corresponding to the two first impellers. The condensation side air outlet 1203 is provided with the condensation side fan 41 towards the inner side of the first chamber 101, the air outlet of the condensation side fan 41 is connected with the condensation side air outlet 1203, the outer side of the condensation side air outlet 1203 away from the first chamber 101 is provided with the first air outlet connector 1205, and the first air outlet connector 1205 is connected with an air outlet pipe (not shown) for communicating the condensation side air outlet 1203 with the outside, so that the condensation side fan 41 discharges the hot air after heat exchange in the first chamber 101 out of the outside through the condensation side air outlet 1203 and the air outlet pipe.

After the condensation-side fan 41 is started, air outside the casing 1 can continuously flow from the condensation-side air inlet 1201 into the first chamber 101, then flows from the first chamber 101 into a channel through which air flows in the condenser 31, the air in the channel is heated by the refrigerant in the condenser 31 to heat up to form hot air, and after leaving the channel of the condenser 31, the hot air can sequentially pass through the head 21 of the compressor 2, the tail 22 of the compressor 2, the condensation-side fan 41 and the condensation-side air outlet 1203 to the outside. At this time, since the tail 22 is closer to the condensation side air outlet 1203, the hot air flow can also take away a part of the noise generated by the compressor 2, so that the noise of the whole machine can be reduced, and on the other hand, the tail 22 of the compressor 2 is far away from the ventilation hole of the condensation side air inlet 1201, so that the noise transmitted to the outside of the casing 1 through the ventilation hole of the condensation side air inlet 1201 during the operation of the compressor 2 can be weakened, and the noise of the whole machine can be obviously reduced due to the comprehensive effect of the two aspects.

The evaporator 32 is fixedly disposed on an inner wall surface of the fifth side wall 125, and the evaporator 32 has an air inlet side facing the fifth side wall 125 and an air outlet side facing away from the fifth side wall 125. The evaporator 32 has a substantially plate shape, a pipe through which a refrigerant flows is provided in the evaporator 32, and a passage through which air flows is formed between adjacent pipes. The air exchanges heat in the channel with the refrigerant in the pipeline through the wall of the pipeline. The passage in the evaporator 32 communicates with the second chamber 102. The evaporator 32 is not necessarily limited to a plate shape, and may be any other shape that facilitates heat exchange in other embodiments.

In other embodiments, the evaporator 32 may likewise be a multi-pass heat exchanger. For example, the heat exchanger can be a copper tube fin type heat exchanger or a micro-channel heat exchanger with flat tubes and a collecting tube. The use of a microchannel heat exchanger is advantageous in reducing the weight of the evaporator 32 and reducing the size of the evaporator 32. The flat tube is generally provided with a plurality of channels for flowing the cooling medium therein. Adjacent channels are isolated from each other, a plurality of channels are arranged in a row to jointly influence the width of the flat tube, the whole flat tube is flat, the length of the flat tube is larger than the width, and the width of the flat tube is larger than the thickness of the flat tube. The length direction of the flat tube is the flow direction of the refrigerant determined by the channel in the flat tube. The length direction of the flat tube can be linear, broken line type, bent type or the like. The flat tube is not limited to this type, and may be of other forms.

Referring to fig. 1 and 5, a drain device 6 is disposed below the evaporator 32 in the second chamber 102, and the drain device 6 includes a water tank 61 and a drain pipe 62 disposed at one side of the water tank 61. In the heat exchange process, the refrigerant in the evaporator 32 can generate condensate water on the surface of the evaporator 32, and the water tank 61 can collect the condensate water, and optionally, the water tank 61 is obliquely arranged, so that the condensate water collected by the water tank 61 is more beneficial to being discharged to the outside of the air conditioner 100 through the drain pipe 62 in time, and the condensate water is prevented from overflowing into the shell 1 of the air conditioner 100 to cause equipment damage, or overflowed into a room to cause water leakage at a suspended ceiling.

Referring to fig. 1, 11 and 12, the evaporation side fan 42 includes a second motor 421, a second impeller 422, and a second casing 423. The second motor 421 drives the second impeller 422, and the second impeller 422 is accommodated in the second casing 423. The evaporation side fan 42 adopts a vertical installation mode, namely, the axial direction of the second motor 421 is parallel to the bottom wall 11, and the second casing 423 is arranged around the axial direction of the second motor 421 and is vertically installed relative to the bottom wall 11, so that the air inlet direction of the evaporation side fan 42 and the air outlet direction of the evaporator 32 are both along the axial direction of the evaporation side fan 42, that is, the air inlet of the second casing 423 faces the air outlet side of the evaporator 32 and is separated from the air outlet side of the evaporator 32 by a certain distance, which is beneficial for air to be directly sucked by the evaporation side fan 42 after passing through the evaporator 32, so as to reduce wind resistance, ensure air quantity and simultaneously reduce energy consumption of the evaporation side fan 42. The evaporation side fan 42 is an alternating current motor, can be directly communicated with an alternating current power supply, does not need rectification and voltage reduction, can reduce the cost of the whole machine, and can achieve the effect of rapid refrigeration.

Referring to fig. 1 and 11, a metal bracket 7 is further disposed in the second chamber 102, and the metal bracket 7 is used for fixing the evaporation side fan 42 and the housing 1. The metal bracket 7 includes a main body portion 70 and a fixing portion bent from the main body portion 70. The main body 70 is substantially quadrangular, and a through hole 700 is formed in the middle of the main body 70. The main body 70 and the first partition 13 are spaced apart from each other to form a gap, and the second motor 421 passes through the through hole 700 so that the second motor 421 is partially received in the gap, thereby optimizing the spatial layout on the basis of realizing the fixing effect of the metal bracket 7. Specifically, the end of the second motor 421 remote from the driving end, i.e., the end of the second motor 421, passes through and is positioned in the through hole 700. The second casing 423 is not only vertically installed around the axial direction of the second motor 421 with respect to the bottom wall 11, but also secured to the main body 70 by screws or the like to ensure the stability of the vertical installation. The fixed part of the metal bracket 7 comprises a first folded edge 71, a second folded edge 72 and a third folded edge 73 which are respectively formed by bending three side edges of the main body part 70, the first folded edge 71 is fixedly connected with the first partition plate 13, the second folded edge 72 is fixedly connected with the bottom wall 11 or the first partition plate 13, and the third folded edge is fixedly connected with the sixth side wall 126 or the first partition plate 13, so that the metal bracket 70 can be fixed in the second cavity 102 in the three-dimensional direction, the supporting strength of the metal bracket 70 is enhanced, the vibration of the whole machine when the evaporation side fan 42 is started to shake is avoided, and the noise is avoided. In the present embodiment, the metal bracket 70 is fixedly connected to the first partition 13, the bottom wall 11, and the sixth side wall 126 by screws, and in other embodiments, the metal bracket 70 may be fixed by welding.

Referring to fig. 1, the fifth side wall 125 is provided with an evaporation side air inlet 1202, and the evaporation side air inlet 1202 is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes, so that air outside the housing 1 enters the second chamber 102 through the evaporation side air inlet 1202 to exchange heat with the evaporator 32. In the present embodiment, the number of the evaporation side air inlets 1202 is one, and the customer may set a plurality of evaporation side air inlets 1202 according to the shape of the evaporator 32 to satisfy the air intake requirement.

Referring to fig. 1, a sixth side wall 126 is provided with an evaporation side air supply opening 1204, the evaporation side air supply opening 1204 is provided with an evaporation side fan 42 towards the inner side of the second chamber 102, an air outlet of the evaporation side fan 42 is connected with an evaporation side air supply opening 1024, a second air opening connecting piece 1206 is provided at the outer side of the evaporation side air supply opening 1204 far away from the second chamber 102, the second air opening connecting piece 1206 is connected with an air supply pipe (not shown), the air supply pipe is communicated with the evaporation side air supply opening 1204 and an air supply panel on the kitchen ceiling, and the evaporation side fan 42 sends cold air after heat exchange in the second chamber 102 into a room through the evaporation side air supply opening 1204 and the air supply pipe.

After the evaporation side fan 42 is started, air outside the shell 1 can continuously flow into the second chamber 102 from the evaporation side air inlet 1202, then enters the channel of the evaporator 32 from the second chamber 102, the air in the channel exchanges heat with the refrigerant in the evaporator 32 and then cools down to form cold air, and after leaving the channel of the evaporator 32, the cold air is pumped to the evaporation side air inlet 1204 through the evaporation side fan 42 and then is conveyed into a room through an air supply pipe.

Referring to fig. 3, the air conditioner 100 further includes a plurality of sections of pipelines 5, and in this embodiment, the pipelines 5 include a first pipeline 51, a second pipeline 52 and a third pipeline 53.

In the present embodiment, the throttling element 521 is a capillary tube. In other embodiments, the throttling element 521 may be a thermal expansion valve.

Referring to fig. 3, in the present embodiment, since the throttling element 521 is a capillary tube having a diameter smaller than that of the pipeline 5, and a dry filter 522 is particularly disposed between the second pipeline 52 and the capillary tube type throttling element 521, when the high-pressure refrigerant in the condenser 31 passes through the dry filter 522 to filter impurities and then passes through the throttling element 521, the blockage caused by the precipitation of the impurities at the throttling element 521 is avoided, the throttling element 521 reduces the temperature of the refrigerant and reduces the pressure of the refrigerant, so that the refrigerant entering the evaporator 32 is rapidly cooled, and the effect of cooling the hot air can be achieved by heat exchange with the hot air. In the present embodiment, the capillary-type throttling element 521 is also connected to the evaporator 32 by another line (not numbered), which corresponds to the communication between the condenser 31 and the evaporator 32 by way of the line 5.

Referring to fig. 1, 4 and 7, a refrigerant filling valve 531 is disposed on the third pipeline 53 and near the evaporator 32, and the refrigerant filling valve 531 is mainly used for filling refrigerant into the pipeline 5 when the amount of refrigerant is small. In addition, since the third pipe 53 is a low-pressure pipe, in the present embodiment, the refrigerant charge valve 531 is provided in the third pipe 53, so that the refrigerant can be conveniently injected. On the fourth side wall 124, the housing 1 is provided with a first access port 1001, and the first access port 1001 is at least partially located with respect to the refrigerant charge valve 531.

The fourth side wall 124 is further provided with a first access cover 91 for sealing the first access opening 1001, and the first access cover 91 is fixed to the fourth side wall 124 by screws, that is, when the first access cover 91 is not used for maintenance, the second chamber 102 may be a closed space. The air conditioner is in a non-working state, and the first access cover plate 91 can be removed to perform the action of filling the refrigerant.

The refrigerant filling valve 531 is inclined downward and faces the first access hole 1001, and when the first access cover 91 is opened, the refrigerant filling valve 531 can be seen, and the refrigerant filling device (not shown) can be quickly and conveniently connected with the refrigerant filling valve 531 through the first access hole 1001 to fill the refrigerant. The first access port 1001 is sized to fully expose the refrigerant charge valve 531 and to accommodate an operating space when a lower charge device (not shown) is connected to the refrigerant charge valve 531.

By arranging the refrigerant filling valve 531 on the third pipeline 53 and arranging the first access hole 1001 on the fourth side wall 124, the air conditioner does not need to take the whole machine off the kitchen ceiling when filling the refrigerant, but only simply removes a plurality of kitchen pinch plates near the first access hole 1001 of the air conditioner, then opens the first access cover plate 91, connects the refrigerant filling valve 531 with a filling device (not shown), and only needs to fix the first access cover plate 91 on the fourth side wall 124 again after the refrigerant filling is finished, and installs a plurality of kitchen pinch plates near the first access hole 1001. The disassembly step and the re-hoisting step of the whole machine are omitted, the opening step and the re-fixing step of the upper cover of the machine are also omitted, the refrigerant filling flow is simplified, the workload of maintenance personnel is greatly reduced, time and labor are saved, and meanwhile, the labor cost is also reduced.

Thus, a portion of the first partition 13, a portion of the fourth side wall 124, and the second partition 14 enclose a third chamber 103 therebetween. The two ends of the second partition 14 located in the second chamber 102 are not necessarily connected to the first partition 13 and the fourth side wall 124, for example, in other embodiments: the first side plate 141 end of the second partition 14 may be connected to the fourth side wall 124 and the second side plate 142 end to the fifth side wall 125, and a third chamber 103 may be formed around a portion of the fifth side wall 125, a portion of the fourth side wall 124, and the second partition 14.
