Fig. 1 and 2 are exploded schematic views of a mobile air conditioner (lacking a blower volute assembly inside the housing). Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the mobile air conditioner 10 includes a housing 100, an air supply volute assembly 200 (the air supply volute assembly 200 is not shown in fig. 1 and 2, and it should be understood in conjunction with the remaining drawings), an exhaust volute assembly 300, a middle partition 400, and an electric control box assembly.

The case 100 shown in fig. 1 and 2 includes a front case 130 and a rear case 140. The upper portion of the front case 130 is a front panel structure. The front case 130 and the rear case 140 are assembled by a connection method such as a screw hole, and thus the entire structure of the case 100 is formed. It is understood that the housing 100 may be formed of three of a front housing, a side housing and a rear housing, or may be formed by an integral molding process.

The air supply volute component 200, the air exhaust volute component 300, the middle clapboard 400 and the electric control box component are all located inside the shell 100, and the middle clapboard 400 divides the space inside the shell 100 into an upper layer of installation space and a lower layer of installation space on the whole. An air supply volute component 200 is arranged in the upper layer installation space, and an air exhaust volute component 300 is arranged in the lower layer installation space. In other words, the supply volute assembly 200 is located above the center partition 400, while the exhaust volute assembly 300 is located below the center partition 400. The exhaust volute assembly 300 has a first air inlet duct and a first air outlet duct. Air enters the first air inlet duct of the air exhaust volute component, flows in the air exhaust volute and is finally exhausted through the first air outlet duct. The opening of the first air outlet duct is used for connecting accessories such as an exhaust duct and the like, and air in the exhaust volute is exhausted outdoors through the exhaust duct and the like.

Fig. 1 to 10 all show the reference direction coordinate system of the embodiment of the present invention. In some embodiments, please refer to the direction shown in fig. 1, a first air inlet 500 and a first air outlet 600 are disposed at the rear side of the housing 100, the first air inlet 500 is communicated with the first air inlet duct, the first air outlet 600 is communicated with the first air outlet duct, and both the first air inlet 500 and the first air outlet 600 have upward openings.

The first air inlet and the first air outlet related to the air exhaust volute component are uniformly arranged on the rear side of the shell, so that the air exhaust volute component is orderly and compact in structure and is convenient for installation of related accessories. The structure design not only has reasonable air flow, but also makes the whole structure compact.

In a conventional mobile air conditioner, a first air inlet and a first air outlet associated with an exhaust volute assembly are both disposed to open backward. Mobile air conditioners generally require that the air from the exhaust volute assembly be exhausted out of the room (e.g., out of the window) in close proximity, for which a user is required to sealingly connect the exhaust duct to the first outlet. However, in the case where the first outlet port is provided to open rearward, the exhaust duct is not easily installed. The reason is that the general mobile air conditioner is designed to have a low overall height for easy movement. In the case that the body height of the mobile air conditioner is low, it means that the position where the first air outlet is connected with the air exhaust duct is also low. The height of the outdoor exhaust air place (for example, outside the window) may be higher, so that the exhaust duct needs to be horizontally connected to the first air outlet and then quickly vertically extend upwards to the outdoor exhaust air place (for example, outside the window). The installation of accessories such as exhaust ducts and the like is very difficult. In the embodiment, the openings of the first air inlet and the first air outlet are upward, so that the installation of accessories such as an exhaust duct and the like is easier before improvement.

In some embodiments, the first air inlet and the first air outlet are both vertically upward or obliquely upward. Compared with the traditional backward opening, the vertical upward and inclined upward openings are more convenient for installing accessories such as an exhaust duct and the like. Fig. 3 is an external structure diagram of a left view angle of the mobile air conditioner. In the structure shown in fig. 3, both the first intake vent 500 and the first outtake 600 are inclined upward. It is understood that, one skilled in the art can design the first air inlet and the first air outlet to be vertically upward or obliquely upward as required. The air outlets with the upward overall direction can achieve the effect of facilitating the installation of relevant accessories.

Referring to fig. 1 to 5, in some embodiments, a bottom plate 120 is disposed at the bottom of the casing 100, a lower portion of the first air outlet duct transitions to the casing 100 through a slope, and a height of a position where the slope intersects with the casing 100 is higher than the bottom plate 120. Through setting up the slope that is used for the transition, reduced the shared space of the lower part of mobile air conditioner fuselage, also more have the aesthetic feeling in the outward appearance. It will be appreciated that the slope of the ramp may be set as desired by those skilled in the art.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 1, fig. 2 and fig. 5, the heights of both the first air inlet 500 and the first air outlet 600 are equal to the height of the middle partition 400. It should be noted that the meaning of height "equivalent" should not be understood to be merely absolute equality of height. The difference between the height of the first air inlet or the first air outlet and the height of the middle partition plate is within an acceptable error range in the field, and the technical effect of the embodiment of the application can be achieved, and the difference is also within the meaning expressed by the expression "equivalent". By the structural design, a user can conveniently install accessories such as an exhaust pipeline and the like, and meanwhile, the height of the exhaust volute component is also adapted.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 5, the flanges of the first intake vent 500 and the first exhaust vent 600 are provided with screw holes. The first air inlet and the first air outlet are both provided with flange structures, and the joint of the exhaust pipeline is also provided with corresponding flange structures, so that the matching relation of flange connection is formed. The flange of the first air inlet and the flange of the first air outlet are provided with screw holes, so that a user can conveniently install accessories such as an exhaust pipeline and the like through a threaded connecting piece.

In some embodiments, the opening of the first air outlet duct is extended to the position of the first air outlet 600. It should be noted that the first outlet 600 is different from the opening of the first outlet duct. The first air outlet 600 is opened in the casing 100 of the mobile air conditioner, and an opening of the first air outlet duct is a terminal of the first air outlet duct of the exhaust volute, and the exhaust volute is installed inside the casing 100.

In a traditional mobile air conditioner, a certain distance is reserved between the opening position of the first air outlet duct and the position of the first air outlet. When viewed from the flow direction of the discharged air, the air discharged by the exhaust volute does not reach the first air outlet, and flows out of the opening of the first air outlet duct. An exhaust duct is generally required to be installed at the position of the first air outlet of the mobile air conditioner, so that air inside the mobile air conditioner is exhausted out of a room through the exhaust duct. However, the air exhausted from the exhaust volute of the conventional mobile air conditioner does not reach the first air outlet, and flows out of the opening of the first air outlet duct, so that the air exhausted from the exhaust volute cannot flow into the room by means of a complicated sealing structure. In the embodiment, the opening of the first air outlet duct (equivalent to the air outlet of the air exhaust volute) is extended and lengthened and extends into the first air outlet on the rear side of the casing, so that the opening of the first air outlet duct is in direct contact with air exhaust accessories such as an air exhaust pipeline and the like, the path length of air leakage is reduced, a sealing structure is not required to be additionally configured, and air leakage at the first air outlet is less.

In some embodiments, the first air outlet 600 is in accordance with the opening shape of the first air outlet duct. Specifically, the openings of the first air outlet 600 and the first air outlet duct shown in fig. 5 are both square. The shape of the opening of the first air outlet arranged on the shell is generally consistent with the shape of the opening of the first air outlet duct, so that the air outlet duct is convenient to process and install, and the sealing performance can be ensured to a certain extent by the generally consistent shape, so that the air leakage at the first air outlet is less. The opening shape of the air duct of the air exhaust volute casing is usually square. It can be understood that, a person skilled in the art can design the shape of the air duct opening of the exhaust volute according to needs, and then adaptively design the cross-sectional shape of the first air outlet.

Referring to fig. 1, fig. 2, fig. 4 and fig. 5, in some embodiments, the mobile air conditioner 10 further includes an air guiding plate 820, the top of the casing 100 has a second air outlet 800, and the air guiding plate 820 is rotatably disposed at the second air outlet 800. Referring to fig. 9, the air supply volute assembly 200 has a second air outlet duct, and the second air outlet 800 is communicated with the second air outlet duct.

After the mobile air conditioner is turned on and operated, the air deflector 820 rotates and does not shield the second air outlet 800 any more, and cool air is output to the indoor; when the mobile air conditioner is not operated, the air deflector 820 rotates to shield the second air outlet 800 again, and no air flows to the indoor for conveying.

Further, referring to fig. 5 to 9, in some embodiments, the rear side of the housing 100 has a second air inlet 700, the blower volute assembly 200 has a second air inlet duct, and the second air inlet 700 is communicated with the second air inlet duct. Specifically, the second air inlet 700 is disposed at an upper portion of the rear side of the housing 100, corresponding to an area of an upper installation space where the air supply volute assembly is located.

Air enters the second air inlet duct of the air supply volute component from the rear side of the machine body and then flows out from the top of the machine body through the second air outlet duct. The air flow direction of the air supply volute assembly can be summarized as that air enters from the rear side of the shell and air exits from the upper portion of the shell. It can be understood that the second air inlet duct is communicated with the second air outlet duct. The conventional mobile air conditioner is supplied with air from the front side (usually the front panel) of the casing, i.e., cool air is output from the front side of the casing to the indoor. In this embodiment, cool air is output from the upper portion of the housing to the room. Compared with the traditional air supply structure design, the front side part of the shell is provided with a space for accommodating other components. The structure design not only has reasonable air flow, but also makes the whole structure compact.

Referring to fig. 9 to 10, the discharge volute assembly 300 includes a condenser 320 and a first wind wheel, and the supply volute assembly 200 includes an evaporator 220 and a second wind wheel. Fig. 9 also shows that the mobile air conditioner 10 further includes a compressor 340. The compressor 340 is located in a lower installation space of the mobile air conditioner 10 to compress and drive a refrigerant. The condenser 320 and the evaporator 220 are used for heat exchange of air. After heat exchange of the condenser, the air temperature is raised and is discharged out of the exhaust volute component; after heat exchange of the evaporator, the air temperature is reduced, and cool air is output to the indoor through an air outlet (namely a second air outlet) of the mobile air conditioner by an air outlet duct of the air supply volute component. The first wind wheel and the second wind wheel drive part of air to flow under the driving of the motor, certain wind circulation amount is generated, and heat exchange between the air and the evaporator/condenser is realized by the aid of the circularly flowing air. It will be appreciated that the skilled person may select the type of first and second wind wheels, such as cross-flow or centrifugal wind wheels, etc., as desired.
