Arc segment's setting, the air current that can flow air outlet 13 guides to the top of air inlet 2011, and the air current that air outlet 13 flows leads to air current humidity great because of water film or water smoke effect, flows to air inlet 2011 top back when the air current, flows along the straightway, and the straightway guides the air current to air inlet 2011 department. The humidity of the airflow is high, and therefore the straight line segment is arranged in the horizontal direction or is inclined downward in the flowing direction of the airflow at the position of the horizontal segment, so that the airflow flowing out of the air guide passage can flow into the air inlet 2011.

According to a second aspect of the disclosed embodiments, there is provided an indoor unit assembly comprising an indoor unit 200 and the water wash air device 100 of any of the above.

With this indoor unit assembly, it is possible to purify indoor air by the water-washed air device 100 while adjusting indoor temperature by the indoor unit 200.

Alternatively, as shown in fig. 5, the wash air device 100 may be installed at one side of the indoor unit 200, for example, at the left, right, above, or below of the indoor unit 200.

The indoor unit 200 includes a casing 201, a heat exchanger and a fan are provided in the casing 201, an air inlet 2011 and an air outlet 2012 are provided on the casing 201, and the fan operates, exchanges heat with the heat exchanger after air is sucked from the air inlet 2011, and blows out from the air outlet 2012.

Alternatively, the water washing air device 100 can slide relative to the installation base, for example, a sliding block is disposed on the box body 1, a sliding groove is disposed on the installation base, and the sliding block is slidably disposed in the sliding groove, wherein the water washing air device 100 is installed on the installation base, and a common installation base is a wall.

The air washing device 100 can slide along the length direction and/or the height direction of the indoor unit 200 relative to the installation base, so as to change the position of the air outlet 13, and the outlet air of the air outlet 13 can better meet the requirement of a user on the indoor position or the outlet air direction of the air outlet 13. Optionally, the air washing device 100 can slide to the lower part of the indoor unit 200, and the air outlet 2012 is disposed at the top of the indoor unit 200, so that the air flow flowing out of the air outlet 2012 of the indoor unit 200 and the air flow flowing out of the air outlet 13 of the air washing device 100 can be mixed, and because the humidity of the air flow flowing out of the air outlet 13 is relatively high, the air flow and the air flow can be mixed to obtain a humid mixed air, thereby improving the indoor humidity and improving the user experience.

The indoor unit assembly provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure includes the water washing air device 100 in any one of the above embodiments, so that all the beneficial effects of the water washing air device 100 in any one of the above embodiments are achieved, and details are not described herein again.

According to a third aspect of the embodiments of the present disclosure, an air conditioner is provided, which includes an outdoor unit and the indoor unit assembly, where the indoor unit assembly is connected to the outdoor unit.

The air conditioner provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure includes the indoor unit assembly in any one of the above embodiments, so that the air conditioner has all the beneficial effects of the indoor unit 200 in any one of the above embodiments, and details are not repeated herein.

The above description and drawings sufficiently illustrate embodiments of the disclosure to enable those skilled in the art to practice them. Other embodiments may include structural and other changes. The examples merely typify possible variations. Individual components and functions are optional unless explicitly required, and the sequence of operations may vary. Portions and features of some embodiments may be included in or substituted for those of others. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to the structures that have been described above and shown in the drawings, and various modifications and changes may be made without departing from the scope thereof. The scope of the present disclosure is limited only by the appended claims.
