Detailed Description

Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar function throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and intended to be used for explaining the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

The following disclosure provides many different embodiments, or examples, for implementing different features of the invention. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present invention, the components and arrangements of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are merely examples and are not intended to limit the present invention. Furthermore, the present invention may repeat reference numerals and/or letters in the various examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity and does not in itself dictate a relationship between the various embodiments and/or configurations discussed. In addition, the present disclosure provides examples of various specific processes and materials, but one of ordinary skill in the art may recognize the applicability of other processes and/or the use of other materials.

Hereinafter, a window type air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the window type air conditioner 100 includes: the outdoor unit comprises an outdoor unit body 2 and indoor unit parts 101, wherein the outdoor unit body 2 is suitable for being arranged on the outdoor side, the indoor unit parts 101 comprise an indoor unit body 1 and a connecting support 3 connected with the indoor unit body 1, the indoor unit body 1 is suitable for being arranged on the indoor side, the connecting support 3 can be arranged on a window 200 in a penetrating mode, and the outer end of the connecting support 3 extends to be connected with the inner end of the upper portion of the outdoor unit body 2 in a rotating mode, so that the outdoor unit body 2 rotates around the inner end of the upper portion of the outdoor unit body 2.

It should be noted that "the outer end of the connecting bracket 3 extends to be rotatably connected with the inner end of the upper portion of the outer machine body 2" is intended to describe the position where the inner machine part 101 is connected with the outer machine body 2, and is not limited to how to connect, and may be, for example, directly connected or indirectly connected, and the setting position of the linkage used for indirectly connecting is not limited, and may be, for example, set on the connecting bracket 3, or may be set on the inner machine body 1..

For example, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the outer unit body 2 is rotatable about a lateral axis (e.g., axis L shown in fig. 1) at an upper inner end of the outer unit body 2 for bottom-up or bottom-down rotation. If the outdoor unit body 2 is rotated counterclockwise about the position of the rotational connection (for example, the position R shown in fig. 1), the rotation may be performed in a bottom-up manner, and the configuration may be changed to the configuration shown in fig. 3 and 4, for example. For example, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, if the outer motor body 2 is rotated clockwise about the position of the rotational connection (for example, the position R shown in fig. 3), the rotation with the bottom lowered can be performed, and the configuration shown in fig. 1 and 2 can be changed, for example.

It should be noted that the pivotal connection of the outer end of the connecting bracket 3 to the "pivotal connection" in the upper inner end of the outer motor body 2 is to be understood in a broad sense and is not limited to being rotatable about one axis, and may be, for example, a pivotal connection about one axis (e.g., the pivot axis L shown in fig. 1) by a hinge, and may be, for example, a connection by a link, a pivotal connection about two axes, or the like. In short, the outer unit body 2 is rotatable around an upper inner end (e.g., position R shown in fig. 1 and 3) of the outer unit body 2 with respect to the inner unit part 101, so that the window type air conditioner 100 can be changed in shape to meet different practical requirements.

Therefore, when the window type air conditioner 100 is installed, the outdoor unit body 2 can be rotated to the bottom to be lifted (for example, in the state shown in fig. 3 and 4), so that the outdoor unit body 2 can be easily pushed out from the indoor side to the outdoor side through the window 200, and after the outdoor unit body 2 is pushed out to the outdoor side, the outdoor unit body 2 is rotated to the bottom to be lowered to the normal position (for example, in the state shown in fig. 1 and 2), and the normal use requirement is met.

In addition, the outer machine body 2 can rotate around the inner end of the upper part of the outer machine body 2, so that the rotating connection position is positioned at the inner end of the upper part of the outer machine body 2, the rotating connection position can be used as reliable rotating support, the rotating stability and reliability of the outer machine body 2 are improved, the structure of the outer machine body 2 is simplified, the cost is reduced, and the assembly is simplified. Moreover, the space range swept by the whole rotation of the outer machine body 2 can be reduced, the driving moment required for driving the outer machine body 2 to rotate is reduced, the operation is more labor-saving, and the requirement on the opening height of the window 200 is lower.

In addition, in some embodiments, the outer end of the connecting bracket 3 is designed to extend and be rotatably connected to the upper inner end of the outer machine body 2, so that the outer machine body 2 can be easily rotated to be flush with the bottom surface of the connecting bracket 3 (for example, as shown in fig. 3 and 4) by adjusting design parameters, and it should be noted that the "flush" may be completely flush or substantially flush. Therefore, when the outdoor unit body 2 is pushed from the indoor side to the outdoor side, the outdoor unit body 2 penetrates through the window 200, the window type air conditioner 100 is almost not required to be moved vertically, the connecting support 3 can penetrate into the window 200 along with the outdoor unit body 2, operation is simplified, operation is more labor-saving and convenient, and assembly efficiency is higher.

In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1-4, the window type air conditioner 100 further includes a supporting component 108, the supporting component 108 is connected between the connecting bracket 3 and the outer body 2, and is used for providing resistance to the outer body 2 to prevent the outer body 2 from rotating at the bottom, that is, to prevent (not prevent) the outer body 2 from rotating at the bottom. For example, the support member 108 may be deformed or moved to apply the support resistance, without limitation.

For example, when the outer unit body 2 is rotated downward with a rotational thrust force that is lowered with respect to the inner unit 101, the support assembly 108 may provide resistance to the outer unit body 2, so as to avoid the problem that the outer unit body 2 is rotated downward rapidly to collide or fall, thereby improving the installation reliability and safety. Or, when the outer machine body 2 rotates upwards with the rotating thrust force raised at the bottom relative to the inner machine part 101 and has a downward rotation trend under the action of gravity, the resistance provided by the supporting component 108 can make the operation of the outer machine body 2 upwards rotated by the installer more labor-saving and easier.

It should be noted that, according to the utility model discloses window type air conditioner 100 when installing to window 200, has avoided through raising window type air conditioner 100 is whole for the diapire of outer body 2 exceeds the windowsill height, makes outer body 2 can be from the operation of inside to outside release. And only need rotate outer machine body 2 and raise can to the supporting role that the cooperation supporting component 108 provided makes the operation more laborsaving. Moreover, the window type air conditioner 100 does not need to be lifted integrally and then the external unit body 2 is pushed out, so that the risk that the whole air conditioner topples and falls towards the outdoor side due to the fact that the gravity center height of the whole air conditioner is high and difficult to control when the whole air conditioner is pushed from inside to outside is avoided, and the installation safety is improved. Particularly, only need rotate outer casing 2 and raise, and original lower height can be maintained to interior machine part 1, and installer can push down interior machine part 1 from the top down very easily, avoids the complete machine to topple over the risk of falling outward.

It should be noted that the connection relationship between the internal unit body 1 and the connecting bracket 3 is not limited, and may be, for example, a fixed connection or a sliding connection that is relatively movable in the longitudinal direction, and the like, and is not limited herein. When the inner body 1 and the connecting bracket 3 are fixedly connected, at least a part of the connecting bracket 3 is always located outside the inner body 1, so that the outer body 2 is longitudinally spaced apart from the inner body 1. When the inner body 1 and the connecting bracket 3 are connected slidably in the longitudinal direction and the window air conditioner 100 is in the use configuration (for example, the configuration shown in fig. 1 and 2), at least a portion of the connecting bracket 3 is located outside the inner body 1, so that the outer body 2 is spaced apart from the inner body 1 in the longitudinal direction. When the inner body 1 and the connecting bracket 3 are connected to each other in a longitudinally slidable manner and the window air conditioner 100 is in an installation configuration (for example, the configuration shown in fig. 3 and 4), the connecting bracket 3 may be stacked on the upper portion of the inner body 1 so that the inner body 1 and the outer body 2 are in a close-coupled configuration, or at least a portion of the connecting bracket 3 may be located outside the inner body 1 so that the inner body 1 and the outer body 2 are spaced apart from each other in the longitudinal direction.

When the inner machine body 1 and the connecting bracket 3 are in sliding connection capable of moving relatively along the longitudinal direction, the relative longitudinal position of the outer machine body 2 and the inner machine body 1 can be adjusted, so that the longitudinal distance between the outer machine body 2 and the inner machine body 1 is favorably reduced to facilitate packaging and transportation, and the longitudinal spacing distance between the outer machine body 2 and the inner machine body 1 can be matched with the longitudinal size requirements of different windowsills.

It should be noted that the window air conditioner 100 described herein is suitable for being disposed in the window 200, and the inside and outside direction of the window 200 (i.e., the direction passing through the window 200) is "longitudinal", the width direction of the window 200 is "transverse", and the height direction of the window 200 is "vertical". In short, when the window type air conditioner 100 is in a use configuration (for example, the configuration shown in fig. 1 and 2), the inner unit body 1 and the outer unit body 2 are spaced apart in the inside and outside directions, the inner unit body 1 is disposed on the indoor side for adjusting the indoor ambient temperature, and the like, and the outer unit body 2 is disposed on the outdoor side for exchanging heat with the outdoor environment.

For example, in some optional examples, the inner body 1 may include an indoor heat exchanger, an indoor fan, and the like, the outer body 2 may include a compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger, an outdoor fan, and the like, and a refrigerant pipeline is connected between the inner body 1 and the outer body 2, so that the indoor heat exchanger, the outdoor heat exchanger, the compressor, and the like form a refrigerant cycle system to implement a refrigeration cycle or a heating cycle. Of course, the present invention is not limited thereto, for example, in other embodiments of the present invention, the indoor side fan, the outdoor side fan, etc. may be omitted, which is not illustrated here.

Alternatively, the outer motor body 2 has a first state (e.g., the state shown in fig. 1 and 2) in which the back panel (e.g., the first back panel 21 shown in fig. 3) of the outer motor body 2 is erected and a second state (e.g., the state shown in fig. 3 and 4) in which the back panel (e.g., the first back panel 21 shown in fig. 3) of the outer motor body 2 is laid, and the outer motor body 2 is adapted to be rotated from the first state to the second state by upward rotation about the rotation connection position. Thereby facilitating the installation of the window type air conditioner 100.

It should be noted that "vertical" as used herein is vertical or substantially vertical, and "horizontal" is horizontal or substantially horizontal, as broadly understood. It should be noted that the back panel (i.e., the first back panel 21) of the outdoor unit body 2 refers to a structure of a side of the window-type air conditioner 100 facing the wall of the window when the window-type air conditioner is in use, for example, when the outdoor unit body 2 is in a closed structure, the first back panel 21 may be a side wall of a casing of the outdoor unit body 2, and for example, when the outdoor unit body 2 is in a semi-open structure, the first back panel 21 may also be a side wall of a condenser.

It should be noted that "the outer machine body 2 is adapted to rotate from the first state to the second state by rotating upward" is intended to describe that the outer machine body 2 has the capability of switching between the two states by rotating, but the switching between the two states by driving the outer machine body 2 is not limited to be realized, and for example, when the state of the outer machine body 2 is required to be switched, the switching may be realized by driving the outer machine body 2 to rotate, or by driving the inner machine member 101 to rotate, which falls within the protection scope of the present application.

For example, when the window type air conditioner 100 is in the use configuration (for example, as shown in fig. 1 and 2), the outer body 2 may be changed to the first state. When the window type air conditioner 100 is changed to a convenient installation form (for example, as shown in fig. 3 and 4), the outdoor unit body 2 can be changed to the second state. In addition, when the window type air conditioner 100 is switched between the use form and the installation form, the position and the form of the internal unit body 1 may be changed or may not be changed, and there is no limitation here.

It can be understood that, no matter the outer machine body 2 is in the first state or the second state, the vertical height position of the connecting bracket 3 and the rotating connecting position of the outer machine body 2 can be maintained, when the outer machine body 2 is in the first state, the rotating connecting position is located at the upper height position of the outer machine body 2, and when the outer machine body 2 is in the second state, the rotating connecting position is equivalent to the lower height position of the outer machine body 2 because the back plate of the outer machine body 2 is lifted to the horizontal position.

That is, it roughly corresponds to: when the outer body 2 is in the first state, the entire outer body 2 is substantially lower than the rotation connection position, and when the outer body 2 is in the second state, the entire outer body 2 is substantially higher than the rotation connection position. Therefore, when the outer machine body 2 is changed from the first state to the second state, the outer machine body 2 is lifted up relative to the rotating connection position, so that the outer machine body 2 can be easily pushed out from the window 200 from the direction from the indoor side to the outdoor side, the installation difficulty of the window type air conditioner 100 can be reduced, and the window type air conditioner 100 is more labor-saving to install.

Saddle formula window machine among the correlation technique, interior machine and outer machine are relatively fixed, and the upper end of interior machine is connected with the upper end of outer machine, during the installation, need raise saddle formula window machine is whole, release the outer machine outside the window, and this operation is comparatively hard, and outer machine has the risk of outwards falling. According to the window type air conditioner 100 of the present invention, the outer body 2 is rotatable, so that the above technical problem can be effectively solved.

For example, in some embodiments of the present invention, the outer machine body 2 may be rotated by 90 ° around the rotation connection position from the first state (e.g., the state shown in fig. 1 and 2) to the second state (e.g., the state shown in fig. 3 and 4). For example, the inner unit 101 may be rotated to a vertical position (for example, as shown in fig. 5) by lifting the inner unit 101 by hand, or the outer unit 2 may be rotated to a horizontal position (for example, as shown in fig. 3) by lifting the outer unit 2 by hand to a 90 ° position. In this process, the support resistance of the support member 108 is used, so that the outer machine body 2 can be easily changed to the second state.

As shown in fig. 3 and 4, when the outer body 2 is rotated by 90 ° to the second state, the lower surface of the outer body 2 is flush with the lower surface of the connecting bracket 3, so that the outer body 2 and the connecting bracket 3 can be smoothly and smoothly pushed out. With reference to fig. 6 and 7, after the outdoor unit body 2 reaches the outdoor side, the supporting assembly 108 allows the outdoor unit body 2 to slowly rotate and fall down, and the outdoor unit body 2 rotates 90 ° to return to the first state (for example, the state shown in fig. 7), so as to mount and fix the window air conditioner 100, which is safe and reliable. Therefore, the problems that the saddle type window machine is difficult to install and the outdoor machine is too heavy and is difficult to directly lift from the window 200 to the outdoor side to install can be effectively solved.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3 and 6, the window type air conditioner 100 may further include a buckle assembly including a first buckle 61 and a second buckle 62, the first buckle 61 is disposed on the inner unit 101, the second buckle 62 is disposed on the outer unit 2, when the outer unit 2 assumes the second state (for example, the state shown in fig. 3), the first buckle 61 and the second buckle 62 may be locked in a buckle manner to prevent the outer unit 2 from being reversed toward the first state (for example, the state shown in fig. 1), and when the first buckle 61 and the second buckle 62 are separated and unlocked (for example, as shown in fig. 6), the outer unit 2 may be reversed from the second state toward the first state to be reversed toward the first state (for example, as shown in fig. 7). Thus, by providing the snap assembly, the outdoor unit body 2 can be stably and reliably maintained in the second state, so that the window type air conditioner 100 can be conveniently mounted.

In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 7 and 8, the at least one supporting component 108 is a first supporting component 8, the first supporting component 8 includes a first supporting member 81 and a second supporting member 82 which can slide relatively, an energy storage medium is provided between the first supporting member 81 and the second supporting member 82, one end of the length of the first supporting member 81, which is far away from the second supporting member 82, is rotatably connected to the connecting bracket 3, and one end of the length of the second supporting member 82, which is far away from the first supporting member 81, is rotatably connected to the outer machine body 2. Therefore, the first supporting component 8 can be extended and retracted by the relative sliding of the first supporting part 81 and the second supporting part 82, and is supported by the energy storage medium, for example, when the external machine body 2 rotates downwards, the first supporting part 81 and the second supporting part 82 move relatively to shorten the first supporting component 8, and at this time, the energy storage medium is compressed, and the energy storage medium can provide a supporting force to buffer the acting force of the downward rotation of the external machine body 2.

Alternatively, as shown in fig. 8, one of the first supporting member 81 and the second supporting member 82 is a sleeve, the other one is an inserted rod, the inserted rod is slidably inserted through the sleeve, and the energy storage medium is gas, liquid, or a spring 83 disposed in the sleeve. That is, the first support member 8 may be a pneumatic rod, a hydraulic rod, a spring telescopic rod, or the like. Therefore, through the structural design, the stability and the reliability of the relative sliding between the first supporting piece 81 and the second supporting piece 82 can be ensured, the selectable types of energy storage media are more, and the supporting function can be exerted more reliably and stably.

In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 9-11, at least one supporting component 108 is a second supporting component 7, the second supporting component 7 includes a pull rod 71 and a return spring 74, a sliding groove 72 extending along a longitudinal direction is disposed on the connecting bracket 3, a first end 711 and a second end 712 are disposed at two ends of the pull rod 71, the first end 711 is rotatably connected to the outer machine body 2, the second end 712 slides along the sliding groove 72 and is rotatably engaged with the sliding groove 72, and the return spring 74 is connected between the connecting bracket 3 and the second end 712 to provide an elastic force for sliding the second end 712 toward an inner end of the sliding groove 72 (i.e., an end of the sliding groove 72 close to an indoor side).

Therefore, the pull rod 71 can move by the rotation of the outer machine body 2 relative to the connecting bracket 3, so as to link the extension and contraction of the return spring 74 to provide support by the return spring 74, for example, when the outer machine body 2 rotates downwards, the second end 712 of the pull rod 71 slides towards the outer end of the sliding groove 72 (i.e. the end of the sliding groove 72 close to the outdoor side), and pulls the return spring 74 to extend, and at this time, the return spring 74 can provide elastic force to buffer the downward rotation of the outer machine body 2.

Further, as shown in fig. 9 to 11, the inner end of the sliding groove 72 has a catching groove 73 extending upward, and when the second end 712 is fitted into the catching groove 73, the outer machine body 2 is prevented from being reversed toward the direction of returning to the first state. For example, when the outer unit body 2 is rotated to the second state, the second end 712 of the pull rod 71 can slide toward the indoor side and enter the locking groove 73, and at this time, even if the outer unit body 2 tends to rotate downward by gravity, the outer unit body 2 cannot slide toward the outdoor side along the slide groove 72 because the second end 712 of the pull rod 71 is locked in the locking groove 73, thereby preventing the outer unit body 1 from rotating toward the first state.

In addition, the return spring 74 can apply an elastic force to the second end 712 to move toward the locking groove 73, so that when the second end 712 of the pull rod 71 enters the locking groove 73, the return spring 74 can apply a force to the pull rod 71 to form a more stable limit, thereby preventing the reverse rotation of the outer machine body 2.

In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 12, the supporting components 108 are respectively disposed outside the two lateral sides of the external machine body 2, where the supporting components 108 may be the first supporting component 8 or the second supporting component 7, but not limited to the first supporting component 8 and the second supporting component 7, and may be other forms of supporting components. Thus, the support assembly 108 is disposed therein for ease of installation, viewing, servicing, and the like.

In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 13, at least one supporting component 108 is disposed on the back side of the external machine body 2 (i.e. the side of the window type air conditioner 100 facing the wall in the use configuration), where the supporting component 108 may be the first supporting component 8 or the second supporting component 7, but is not limited to the first supporting component 8 and the second supporting component 7, and may be other supporting components. Thus, the support member 108 provided therein does not occupy a space other than the lateral sides of the outer unit body 2, so that the window type air conditioner 100 occupies a smaller lateral space when it is used and packaged.

When the rear side of the outer machine body 2 is provided with at least one support member 108, in some alternative examples, as shown in fig. 13, the rear side of the outer machine body 2 is provided with a mounting rib 211, and the support member 108 is mounted to a lateral side of the mounting rib 211. Thereby facilitating connection, observation, and maintenance of the support assembly 108.

When the back side of the outer machine body 2 is provided with at least one support assembly 108, in some alternative examples, as shown in fig. 14, the back side of the outer machine body 2 is provided with a groove 212, and the support assembly 108 is installed in the groove 212. That is, at least a portion of the support member 108 fits within the recess 212, and the support member 108 may at least partially enter the recess 212 during rotation. Therefore, the groove 212 can be used for avoiding the supporting component 108, and the space occupied by the supporting component 108 on the back side of the external machine body 2 is reduced as much as possible, so that the external machine body 2 can be closer to a wall body.

It should be noted that the support assemblies 108 may be disposed at a plurality of positions, for example, as shown in fig. 15, the support assemblies 108 are disposed outside the lateral sides of the outer machine body 2, and at least one support assembly 108 is disposed on the back side of the outer machine body 2, so as to better enhance the support effect.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the outer machine body 2 is pivotally connected to the inner machine part 101 such that the outer machine body 2 is rotatable about a single pivot axis L extending in a transverse direction and located at an upper inner end of the outer machine body 2 relative to the inner machine part 101. Therefore, when one of the outer machine body 2 and the inner machine part 101 is used as a rotating part and the other is used as a static part, and the rotating part rotates relative to the static part by applying force, only one of the rotating pivot axes L of the rotating part relative to the static part is unique, and a plurality of pivot axes L do not exist, so that the rotating track of the rotating part relative to the static part is ensured to be definite, when the form of the window type air conditioner 100 needs to be changed, the rotating part can rotate around the unique pivot axis L relative to the static part, and the bottom of the outer machine body 2 can be easily lifted or lowered.

Moreover, the inner machine part 101 is pivotally connected with the outer machine body 2 by a unique pivot axis L, so that the rotating part can be smoothly and reliably pulled to rotate around the unique pivot axis L relative to the stationary part according to a determined track, and the window type air conditioner 100 can be reliably and effectively changed in shape. Moreover, the rotating track of the rotating component is determined and the rotating component is supported by the position of the pivot connection, so that the action of driving the rotating component to rotate is simple, smooth and labor-saving, and the stability and the reliability of the rotating support are better.

Optionally, the inner machine part 101 is provided with a first hinge 41, the outer machine body 2 is provided with a second hinge 42, and the first hinge 41 and the second hinge 42 are hinged to form a hinge assembly 106, so that the outer machine body 2 is rotatable relative to the inner machine part 101 about a single pivot axis L extending in the transverse direction and located at the upper inner end of the outer machine body 2. Thus, by providing the hinge assembly 106, the pivotal connection of the inner machine part 101 to the outer machine body 2 can be achieved such that one of the outer machine body 2 and the inner machine part 101 is rotatable relative to the other about a single pivot axis L extending in the lateral direction to allow the window air conditioner 100 to be converted. Of course, the present invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments of the present invention, the inner machine part 101 and the outer machine body 2 may also be pivotally connected through other manners, for example, through a bearing or a rotating shaft connection, etc., which will not be described herein.

In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 16, the first hinge 41 and the second hinge 42 are pivotally connected by a damping shaft 43. Particularly, the damping rotating shaft 43 may adopt a spring washer, and the rotating torque may be adjusted as required, thereby solving the problem that the outer machine body 2 is rotated and dropped rapidly, and the damping rotating shaft 43 has a strong enough structure, and may effectively support the outer machine body 2 to rotate.

In some embodiments, the hinge assembly 106 may be an exposed hinge a, in which case the first hinge 41 may be mounted outside the top wall of the connecting bracket 3 (as shown in fig. 18, for example), or the first hinge 41 may also be mounted outside the bottom wall of the connecting bracket 3 (as shown in fig. 19, for example), and so on. Thereby, the installation and inspection can be simplified. Of course, the present invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 16 and 17, the hinge assembly 106 may also be a built-in hinge b, and at this time, the window type air conditioner 100 may further include: and a shielding case 51, wherein the shielding case 51 is located between the outer end of the connecting bracket 3 and the upper inner end of the outer machine body 2, and is used for shielding the corresponding part of the hinge assembly 106. That is to say, the hinge assembly 106 and the position that shelters from shell 51 and correspond can be sheltered from by sheltering from shell 51 to can protect hinge assembly 106 comparatively effectively, avoid hinge assembly 106 to collide with the damage, be corroded by liquid etc. guarantee hinge assembly 106's life and operational reliability.

For example, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, when the window type air conditioner 100 is in the use configuration, the inner body 1 and the outer body 2 are spaced apart in the inside-outside direction, the bottom plate (i.e., the second bottom plate 12) of the inner body 1 faces downward, the top plate (i.e., the second top plate 13) faces upward, the panel (i.e., the second panel 14) faces the indoor side, and the back plate (i.e., the second back plate 11) faces the outdoor side. The bottom plate (i.e., the first bottom plate 22) of the outer unit body 2 faces downward, the top plate (i.e., the first top plate 23) faces upward, the face plate (i.e., the first face plate 24) faces the outdoor side, and the back plate (i.e., the first back plate 21) faces the indoor side. The outer motor body 2 is rotatable relative to the inner motor part 101 about a single pivot axis L extending in the lateral direction and located at the upper inner end of the outer motor body 2.

For example, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, if the outer unit body 2 is pulled upward to pivot the outer unit body 2 in a counterclockwise direction about the pivot axis L, after the outer unit body 2 is rotated by 90 °, the window type air conditioner 100 is installed, in which the bottom plate (i.e., the first bottom plate 22) of the outer unit body 2 faces the outdoor side, the top plate (i.e., the first top plate 23) faces the indoor side, the front plate (i.e., the first panel 24) faces upward, and the back plate (i.e., the first back plate 21) faces downward. The inner body 1 still keeps the bottom plate (i.e., the second bottom plate 12) facing downward, the top plate (i.e., the second top plate 13) facing upward, the face plate (i.e., the second face plate 14) facing the indoor side, and the back plate (i.e., the second back plate 11) facing the outdoor side.

For example, as shown in fig. 5, if the inner unit 101 is pulled upward so that the inner unit 101 pivots clockwise about the pivot axis L, after the inner unit 101 rotates 90 °, the window type air conditioner 100 is in the neutral configuration in which the bottom plate (i.e., the second bottom plate 12) of the inner unit body 1 faces the indoor side, the top plate (i.e., the second top plate 13) faces the outdoor side, the face plate (i.e., the second face plate 14) faces upward, and the back plate (i.e., the second back plate 11) faces downward. The outer body 2 still has the bottom plate (i.e., the first bottom plate 22) facing downward, the top plate (i.e., the first top plate 23) facing upward, the face plate (i.e., the first face plate 24) facing the outdoor side, and the back plate (i.e., the first back plate 21) facing the indoor side. It will be appreciated that the window air conditioner 100 in the intermediate configuration (as shown in fig. 5) may be rotated 90 counter-clockwise as a whole, and the window air conditioner 100 may be in the installed configuration (as shown in fig. 3, for example).

In summary, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, when the window type air conditioner 100 is in the use state, the pivot axis L is located at the upper height position of the outer machine body 2, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, when the window type air conditioner 100 is in the installation state, the pivot axis L is located at the lower height position of the outer machine body 2, and since the vertical height of the pivot axis L is unchanged, the outer machine body 2 is lifted up as a whole, so that the outer machine body 2 can be easily pushed out from the indoor side to the outdoor side through the window 200 under the condition that the state of the inner machine body 1 is unchanged, the installation difficulty of the window type air conditioner 100 is reduced, the installation of the window type air conditioner 100 is more labor-saving, the control is easy, and the risk that the whole machine falls down to the outdoor side is reduced.

It can be understood that, if the window type air conditioner 100 is always maintained in the use state, the window type air conditioner 100 needs to be lifted up as a whole when the outdoor unit body 2 needs to be pushed out of the window 200, which is a laborious operation. Moreover, if the window type air conditioner 100 is always in a use state, when the whole machine is lifted to be pushed out, the gravity center of the whole machine is higher due to the fact that the height of the inner machine part 101 is higher (for example, higher than the height of the bottom edge of the window 200), so that the problem that the outer machine body 2 is inclined outwards exists, and the window type air conditioner is not easy to control and has danger.

According to the utility model discloses a window type air conditioner 100 of some embodiments, because under the installation form, interior machine part 101 can still maintain the height of using the form, for example is less than the bottom along height of window 200, installer can press interior machine body 1 from the top of interior machine body 1 very easily, avoids outer machine body 2 outwards to topple over the problem of falling, and easy control reduces danger.
