The specific structure of the air conditioning indoor unit 200 will be mainly described below.

Referring to fig. 1 to 6, in an embodiment of the present invention, the indoor unit 200 of an air conditioner includes two indoor heat exchangers, i.e., a first indoor heat exchanger 210 and a second indoor heat exchanger 220, wherein,

the first indoor heat exchanger 210 has a first through port 211 and a second through port 212 for allowing the refrigerant to enter or exit the first indoor heat exchanger 210, the first through port 211 is configured to communicate with the first pipe 140 of the air conditioner, and the second through port 212 is configured to communicate with the third pipe 160 of the air conditioner and/or configured to communicate with the second pipe 150 of the air conditioner;

the air conditioner includes a compressor 110 and an outdoor heat exchanger 141, a discharge pipe 111 connected to the discharge side of the compressor 110, and a suction pipe connected to the low pressure suction port of the compressor 110;

the first pipe 140 is configured to connect the discharge pipe 111, the outdoor heat exchanger 141, and the indoor heat exchanger of the indoor unit 200 of the air conditioner in this order;

the second pipe 150 is configured to connect the suction pipe and the indoor heat exchanger;

third pipe 160 is disposed to connect discharge pipe 111 and the indoor heat exchanger.

Specifically, in the present embodiment, the air conditioning indoor unit 200 includes a plurality of indoor heat exchangers, and two of them are taken as an example for description. The first inlet 211 of the first indoor heat exchanger 210 communicates with the first pipe 140 of the air conditioner, and the second inlet 212 communicates with the third pipe 160 or the second pipe 150. When the refrigerant enters the first indoor heat exchanger 210 from the first outlet 211 and flows out of the first indoor heat exchanger 210 from the second outlet 212, the first indoor heat exchanger 210 cools (in some embodiments of the multi-split air conditioner, heating may also be performed, and may be achieved by adjusting a throttle adjusting device); when the refrigerant enters the first indoor heat exchanger 210 through the second outlet 212 and flows out of the first indoor heat exchanger 210 through the first outlet 211, the first indoor heat exchanger 210 heats. When the first indoor heat exchanger 210 performs cooling, the refrigerant flows from the compressor 110, passes through the outdoor heat exchanger 141 under the guidance of the first pipe 140, enters the first indoor heat exchanger 210 through the first port 211, flows out of the first indoor heat exchanger 210 through the second port 212, returns to the gas-liquid separator 120 or the suction pipe through the second pipe 150, and flows back to the compressor 110. When the first indoor heat exchanger 210 performs heating, the refrigerant flows in two ways, the first being discharged from the compressor 110, then enters the second pipe 150 through the discharge pipe 111, enters the first indoor heat exchanger 210 through the second opening 212, then flows out of the first indoor heat exchanger 210 through the first opening 211, flows into the outdoor heat exchanger 141 through the first pipe 140, passes through the outdoor heat exchanger 141, then flows into the suction pipe through the first pipe 140, and flows back to the compressor 110. In the second type, the refrigerant flows out from the compressor 110, flows into the third pipe 160 through the discharge pipe, enters the first indoor heat exchanger 210 through the second port 212, flows out of the first indoor heat exchanger 210 through the first port 211, flows into the outdoor heat exchanger 141 through the first pipe 140, flows into the suction pipe through the outdoor heat exchanger 141, and flows back to the compressor 110 through the first pipe 140. The first and second modes may occur at the same time in the same heat exchanger.

Similarly, the third port 221 of the second indoor heat exchanger 220 communicates with the first pipe 140 of the air conditioner, and the fourth port 222 communicates with the third pipe 160 or the second pipe 150. When the refrigerant enters the second indoor heat exchanger 220 from the third opening 221 and flows out of the second indoor heat exchanger 220 from the fourth opening 222, the second indoor heat exchanger 220 performs cooling (in some embodiments of the multi-split air conditioner, heating may also be performed, and may be achieved by adjusting the throttle adjusting device); when the refrigerant enters the second indoor heat exchanger 220 through the fourth outlet 222 and flows out of the second indoor heat exchanger 220 through the third outlet 221, the second indoor heat exchanger 220 heats. When the second indoor heat exchanger 220 performs cooling, the refrigerant flows from the compressor 110, passes through the outdoor heat exchanger 141 under the guidance of the first pipe 140, enters the second indoor heat exchanger 220 through the third port 221, flows out of the second indoor heat exchanger 220 through the fourth port 222, flows back to the gas-liquid separator 120 or the suction pipe through the second pipe 150, and flows back to the compressor 110. When the second indoor heat exchanger 220 performs heating, the refrigerant flows in two ways, the first way is that the refrigerant is discharged from the compressor 110, enters the second pipe 150 through the discharge pipe 111, enters the second indoor heat exchanger 220 through the fourth opening 222, flows out of the second indoor heat exchanger 220 through the third opening 221, flows into the outdoor heat exchanger 141 through the first pipe 140, flows into the suction pipe through the outdoor heat exchanger 141, and flows back to the compressor 110 through the first pipe 140. In the second type, the refrigerant flows out from the compressor 110, flows into the third pipe 160 through the discharge pipe, enters the second indoor heat exchanger 220 through the fourth port 222, flows out of the second indoor heat exchanger 220 through the third port 221, flows into the outdoor heat exchanger 141 through the first pipe 140, flows into the suction pipe through the outdoor heat exchanger 141, and flows back to the compressor 110 through the first pipe 140. The opening and closing of the second indoor throttling device 240 controls whether the second indoor heat exchanger 220 is engaged in operation.

In this way, when the discharge pipe 111, the outdoor heat exchanger 141, and the first inlet 211 of the first indoor heat exchanger 210 are connected in order to the first pipe 140, and the suction pipe and the second inlet 212 of the first indoor heat exchanger 210 are connected to the second pipe 150, the first indoor heat exchanger 210 cools; when the discharge pipe 111, the outdoor heat exchanger 141, and the fourth port 222 of the second indoor heat exchanger 220 are connected in this order to the first pipe 140, and the suction pipe and the third port 221 of the second indoor heat exchanger 220 are connected to the second pipe 150, the second indoor heat exchanger 220 heats. Thus, the air passes through the first indoor heat exchanger 210 for cooling and then passes through the second indoor heat exchanger 220 for heating, so that the indoor unit 200 of the air conditioner realizes dehumidification and reheating; when the first indoor heat exchanger 210 refrigerates and the second heat exchanger refrigerates, the indoor unit 200 of the air conditioner realizes refrigeration; the air-conditioning indoor unit 200 can realize dehumidification and reheating to cope with humid 'return south' and can meet the refrigeration requirement of a user; the effects of refrigeration and dehumidification reheating of the indoor heat exchanger can be more finely adjusted, so that the air conditioner can be suitable for more occasions, the requirements of different people are met, and the improvement of the adaptability of the air conditioner is facilitated.

In some embodiments, in order to further improve the adaptability of the air conditioner, the first through opening 211 is communicated with the first pipe 140 of the air conditioner through a first refrigerant pipe 213, and the first indoor throttling device 230 is disposed on the first refrigerant pipe 213. The first indoor throttling device 230 is disposed on the first refrigerant pipe 213, so that the first indoor heat exchanger 210 may be in a non-operating state, and a position of an operating indoor heat exchanger among the plurality of indoor heat exchangers may be arbitrarily selected according to a requirement.

For controlling the opening and closing of the first refrigerant pipe 213 and the second refrigerant pipe 223, a dedicated control valve may be provided in addition to the first throttle device 230 and the second indoor throttle device 240 for adjusting the flow rate. The air conditioner further includes a first three-way valve through which the first pipe 140 communicates with the first refrigerant pipe 213 and the second refrigerant pipe 223, respectively. In some embodiments, in order to improve the convenience of installing the first pipe 140 and the first and second

refrigerant pipes

213 and 223 and to improve the compactness, a three-way valve is used to communicate the first pipe 140 and the refrigerant pipes. In this case, the three-way valve may not have a control function, and only needs to communicate the first pipe 140 with the first and second refrigerant pipes 223, respectively. In other embodiments, in order to further improve the on-off control between the first pipe 140 and the first refrigerant pipe 213, and between the second refrigerant pipe 223 and the third refrigerant pipe, the first three-way valve may have a function of opening and closing the pipe ports. For example, two nozzles of the first refrigerant pipe 213 and the second refrigerant pipe 223 may be opened and closed, respectively.

When the third pipe 160 and the second pipe 150 are simultaneously connected to the second port 212 and the third pipe 160 and the second pipe 150 are simultaneously connected to the fourth port 222, there are various methods of controlling the first connection pipe 215, the second connection pipe 216, the third connection pipe 225, and the fourth connection pipe 226, respectively. Control valves may be respectively disposed on the first connection pipe 215, the second connection pipe 216, the third connection pipe 225, and the fourth connection pipe 226, or a second three-way valve and a third three-way valve may be respectively disposed.

The second inlet 212 communicates with the third pipe 160 of the air conditioner via a first connection pipe 215, and the first connection pipe 215 is provided with a first control valve 217; the second through port 212 communicates with the second pipe 150 of the air conditioner via a second connection pipe 216, and the second connection pipe 216 is provided with a second control valve 218. In this way, the second port 212 can selectively communicate with the third pipe 160 or the second pipe 150, so that the operating state of the first indoor heat exchanger 210 can be arbitrarily adjusted according to the requirement, and is not affected by the operating modes of other indoor heat exchangers. For example, when the overall indoor unit 200 needs to perform the reheat and dehumidification functions, some indoor heat exchangers are required to heat and some indoor heat exchangers are required to cool. The first indoor heat exchanger 210 cools and the second indoor heat exchanger heats, for example. In the first indoor heat exchanger, the refrigerant at this time passes through the outdoor heat exchanger 141 via the first pipe 140, is sent to the second indoor heat exchanger 220 via the first pipe 140 to be cooled, and is sent back to the suction pipe via the second pipe 150. At this time, the second indoor heat exchanger 220 needs to be heated, and the refrigerant flows from the discharge pipe 111, into the second port 212 through the third pipe 160 and the first connecting pipe 215, flows out of the first port 211, enters the first pipe 140, and flows into the suction pipe through the first pipe 140. During this process, the second control valve 218 is opened and the first control valve 217 is closed. Therefore, the first indoor heat exchanger 210 can realize a working state different from that of other heat exchangers, which is beneficial to improving the use occasion of the first indoor heat exchanger 210. When the first indoor heat exchanger 210 heats, the second control valve 218 is closed and the first control valve 217 is opened.

Similarly, the fourth through port 222 communicates with the third pipe 160 of the air conditioner via a third connection pipe 225, and the third connection pipe 225 is provided with a third control valve 227; the fourth port 222 communicates with the second pipe 150 of the air conditioner via a fourth connection pipe 226, and the fourth connection pipe 226 is provided with a fourth control valve 228. In this way, the fourth port 222 is selectively communicated with the third pipe 160 or the second pipe 150, so that the operating state of the second indoor heat exchanger 220 can be arbitrarily adjusted according to the requirement, and is not affected by the operating modes of other indoor heat exchangers. When the second indoor heat exchanger 220 performs cooling, the third control valve 227 is closed, and the fourth control valve 228 is opened; when the second indoor heat exchanger 220 performs heating, the third control valve 227 is opened and the fourth control valve 228 is closed, or the third control valve 227 is closed and the fourth control valve 228 is opened (in the case of heating the second indoor heat exchanger 220 in the above embodiment, it is necessary that the second pipe 150 communicates with the discharge pipe 111 and the first pipe 140 communicates with the suction pipe).

The situation is realized by the form of a three-way valve:

the second inlet 212 communicates with the third pipe 160 of the air conditioner via the first connection pipe 215, and communicates with the second pipe 150 via the second connection pipe 216, and the second pipe 150 and the third pipe 160 can communicate with the second inlet 212 after being connected via the first connection pipe 214; the air conditioner further includes a second three-way valve through which the first connection pipe 214 communicates with the first connection pipe 215 and the second connection pipe 216, respectively.

Specifically, in this embodiment, one end of the first communication pipe 214 is communicated with the second port 212, and the other end is communicated with a second three-way valve, the first communication pipe 214 is respectively communicated with the first connection pipe 215 and the second connection through the second three-way valve, and the ports of the second three-way valve respectively connected with the two connection pipes can be controlled to be opened and closed. In this manner, the on/off of the first connection pipe 215 and the second connection pipe 216 can be controlled by the second three-way valve. The connection of the first connecting pipe 214, the first connecting pipe 215 and the second connecting pipe 216 is facilitated, and meanwhile the connection and disconnection of the two connecting pipes can be conveniently controlled.

The fourth through port 222 communicates with the third pipe 160 of the air conditioner via a third connecting pipe, and the fourth through port 222 communicates with the second pipe 150 via a fourth connecting pipe 226; the third connection pipe 225 and the fourth connection pipe 226 are communicated with the fourth port 222 through the second communication pipe 224. The air conditioner further includes a third three-way valve through which the second communication pipe 224 is communicated with the third and fourth connection pipes 226, respectively.

Specifically, in this embodiment, one end of the second communication pipe 224 is communicated with the fourth through port 222, and the other end is communicated with the third three-way valve, that is, the second communication pipe is communicated with the third connection pipe and the fourth connection pipe through the third three-way valve, and the ports of the third three-way valve, which are respectively connected with the two connection pipes, can be controlled to be opened and closed. In this way, the third connection pipe and the fourth connection pipe 226 can be opened and closed by the third three-way valve. The on-off control of the two connecting pipes can be conveniently realized while the convenient connection of the fourth through opening 222 and the third and fourth connecting pipes 226 is facilitated.

Note that, regarding the connection form of the third pipe 160 and the first connection pipe 215 and the third connection pipe 225, the first connection pipe 215 and the third connection pipe 225 may be connected to the third pipe 160 independently of each other, or may be connected to the third pipe 160 after a plurality of pipes are connected. For example, after the first connection pipe 215 and the third connection pipe 225 are connected to each other, the third connection pipe is connected to the third pipe 160.

Similarly, as for the connection mode of the second pipe 150 and the second and

fourth connection pipes

216 and 226, the second and

fourth connection pipes

216 and 226 may be independently connected to the second pipe 150, or may be connected to the second pipe 150 after being connected to a plurality of pipes. For example, after the second connection pipe 216 and the fourth connection pipe 226 are connected to each other, the fourth connection pipe is connected to the second pipe 150.
