An air duct component 20 for a cross-flow impeller 10 according to embodiments of a first aspect of the present application will be described below with reference to the drawings.
As shown in
For example, in an example shown in
As shown in
As shown in
As shown in
Thus, in the air duct component 20 according to the embodiments of the present application, the cross-sectional area S2 of the end air outlet duct 232a is set to be smaller than the cross-sectional area S1 of the middle air outlet duct 231a, such that a larger air outlet area exists in the middle in a length direction of the cross-flow air duct 23 (i.e., an axial direction of the cross-flow impeller 10), and may be matched with a higher air outlet speed, and smaller air outlet areas exist at two end portions and may be matched with lower air outlet speeds, such that airflow loads which are substantially the same exist in a whole length range of the cross-flow air duct 23, and the airflow is uniform, thus effectively improving air-supply abnormal noise generated at the two end portions of the cross-flow air duct 23.
In some air conditioners in the related art, cross-flow impellers are adopted to be matched with cross-flow air ducts; however, in a working process of the cross-flow impeller, air unevenly flows in the whole length range of the cross-flow air duct, resulting in airflow abnormal noise in the cross-flow air duct. Regarding the root causes, the inventors found that the cross-flow impeller has a smaller length than the cross-flow air duct, and under influences of two side wall surfaces of the cross-flow air duct, the higher airspeed exists in the middle in the length direction of the cross-flow air duct (i.e., the axial direction of the cross-flow impeller), and the lower air speed exists near the two side wall surfaces.
However, since a volute tongue and a volute of the cross-flow air duct in the related art have the same cross sections at different length positions, all positions of the cross-flow air duct have coincident projection curves in a cross section perpendicular to an axis of the cross-flow impeller, and the cross-flow air duct has the same air outlet area in a whole length direction, such that airflow loads are different in the whole length range of the cross-flow air duct, the air flows unevenly, and airflow on two sides is not matched with an air duct load, thereby generating discontinuous airflow sounds on the two sides of the cross-flow air duct and resulting in the airflow abnormal noise.
In the air duct component 20 according to the embodiments of the present application, by setting the cross-sectional area S2 of the end air outlet duct 232a to be smaller than the cross-sectional area S1 of the middle air outlet duct 231a, the cross-flow air duct 23 has different air outlet sections in the whole length range and has a variable section design, such that the middle air outlet duct 231a with the larger cross-sectional area may be adapted to the higher air outlet speed, and the end air outlet duct 232a with the smaller cross-sectional area may be adapted to the lower air outlet speed; or, the cross-flow air duct 23 is set to have a variable section structure, such that the middle air outlet duct 231a with the larger cross-sectional area is matched in the middle with the higher air speed, and the end air outlet ducts 232a with the smaller cross-sectional areas are matched on the two sides with the lower air speeds, so as to ensure that the airflow loads are substantially the same in the whole length range of the cross-flow air duct 23, and the airflow is uniform, thereby reducing the discontinuous airflow sounds generated on the two sides of the cross-flow air duct 23 and improving the airflow abnormal noise.
It should be noted that, in the embodiments of the present application, in order to achieve the goal that “the cross-sectional area S2 of the end air outlet duct 232a is smaller than the cross-sectional area S1 of the middle air outlet duct 231a, such that the cross-flow air duct 23 has different air outlet sections in the whole length range and has a variable section design,” following specific solutions are proposed in the present application, for example: the first volute member 21 and/or the second volute member 22 are/is provided to have a variable section design along the axial direction of the cross-flow impeller 10; that is, the first volute member 21 and/or the second volute member 22 may be provided to have different sectional shapes in the middle and two ends in the axial direction of the cross-flow impeller 10, thereby adapting to load changes at different positions, and effectively eliminating the air-supply abnormal noise on the two sides of the cross-flow air duct 23.
More specifically, by providing the first volute member 21 and/or the second volute member 22 to have the variable section design along the axial direction of the cross-flow impeller 10, influences of end walls of the two sides of the cross-flow air duct 23 on an air volume may be adapted, such that the air more uniformly flows in the whole length direction (i.e., the axial direction of the cross-flow impeller 10) of the whole cross-flow air duct 23, thus adapting to the characteristics of the cross-flow air duct 23 that the middle air speed is higher and the air speeds on the two sides are lower, and improving the noise generated by the nonuniform airflow on the two sides of the cross-flow air duct 23. Furthermore, it should be noted that transition may be performed by a smooth curved surface or a stepped surface at section varying positions of the first volute member 21 and the second volute member 22, which will not be limited herein.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in
However, the present application is not limited thereto, and the length W2 of the end air duct section 232 may also be adjusted according to actual situations, which is not repeated herein. Furthermore, it should be noted that the length of each end air duct section 232 is only required to meet the value, but the lengths of the two end air duct sections 232 are not required to be consistent, and may be equal or unequal.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in
Thus, the volute tongue 211 is provided to have a variable section structure with a small gap between a middle part and the cross-flow impeller 10 and large gaps between two end parts and the cross-flow impeller 10, thus effectively adapting to the characteristics of small air volumes on the two sides and a large air volume in the middle of the cross-flow air duct 23, improving air volume uniformity of the cross-flow air duct 23 in the whole length direction to a certain extent (that is, the air volume is small due to airflow loss on the two sides of the cross-flow air duct 23, and air inlet resistance on the two sides may be reduced by increasing the air inlet gaps on the two sides, thereby increasing the air inlet volumes on the two sides), and reducing the noise of the air duct component 20 to a certain extent. It may be understood that, in the present embodiment, in the axial direction of the cross-flow impeller 10, the first volute member 21 is of a variable section design, and minimum distances from the volute tongue 211 to the cross-flow impeller 10, minimum distance positions, as well as angles and shapes of the volute tongue 211 may be different at the two ends and in the middle.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown
As shown in
Thus, the cross-sectional area S2 of the end air outlet duct 232a may be simply and effectively guaranteed to be set to be smaller than the cross-sectional area S1 of the middle air outlet duct 231a, such that the middle air outlet duct 231a with the larger cross-sectional area is matched in the middle with the higher air speed, and the end air outlet ducts 232a with the smaller cross-sectional areas are matched on the two sides with the lower air speeds, so as to ensure that the airflow loads are substantially the same in the whole length range of the cross-flow air duct 23, and the airflow is uniform, thereby reducing the discontinuous airflow sounds generated on the two sides of the cross-flow air duct 23 and improving the airflow abnormal noise.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in
Thus, a difference angle of 3° to 7° is formed between the first end linear section 212b and the first middle linear section 212a, such that the cross-sectional area S2 of the end air outlet duct 232a may be simply and effectively guaranteed to be set to be smaller than the cross-sectional area S1 of the middle air outlet duct 231a, the middle air outlet duct 231a with the larger cross-sectional area is matched in the middle with the higher air speed, and the end air outlet ducts 232a with the smaller cross-sectional areas are matched on the two sides with the lower air speeds, so as to ensure that the airflow loads are substantially the same in the whole length range of the cross-flow air duct 23, and the airflow is uniform, thereby reducing the discontinuous airflow sounds generated on the two sides of the cross-flow air duct 23, improving the airflow abnormal noise, and avoiding the problem that normal air discharge on the two sides is influenced by the overlarge difference angle between the first end linear section 212b and the first middle linear section 212a.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in
Thus, the inner end of the second volute member 22 is provided to have a variable section structure with a small gap between a middle part and the cross-flow impeller 10 and large gaps between two end parts and the cross-flow impeller 10, thus effectively adapting to the characteristics of the small air volumes on the two sides and the large air volume in the middle of the cross-flow air duct 23, improving the air volume uniformity of the cross-flow air duct 23 in the whole length direction to a certain extent (that is, the air volume is small due to the airflow loss on the two sides of the cross-flow air duct 23, and the air inlet resistance on the two sides may be reduced by increasing the air inlet gaps on the two sides, thereby increasing the air inlet volumes on the two sides), and reducing the noise of the air duct component 20 to a certain extent. It may be understood that, in the present embodiment, in the axial direction of the cross-flow impeller 10, the second volute member 22 is of a variable section design, and minimum distances from the inner end of the second volute member 22 to the cross-flow impeller 10, minimum distance positions, as well as angles and shapes of the second volute member 22 may be different at the two ends and in the middle.

In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in
It may be understood that, with reference to
Thus, the cross-sectional area S2 of the end air outlet duct 232a may be simply and effectively guaranteed to be set to be smaller than the cross-sectional area S1 of the middle air outlet duct 231a, such that the middle air outlet duct 231a with the larger cross-sectional area is matched in the middle with the higher air speed, and the end air outlet ducts 232a with the smaller cross-sectional areas are matched on the two sides with the lower air speeds, so as to ensure that the airflow loads are substantially the same in the whole length range of the cross-flow air duct 23, and the airflow is uniform, thereby reducing the discontinuous airflow sounds generated on the two sides of the cross-flow air duct 23 and improving the airflow abnormal noise.
In some embodiments, 3°≤α5-α4≤7°; that is, included angles between the first volute member 21 and the second volute member 22 have a difference value of 3° to 7° at the two ends and in the middle, for example, the difference value may be 3°, 4°, 5°, 6°, 7°, thereby reducing discontinuous airflow sounds generated on the two sides of the cross-flow air duct 23, improving the airflow abnormal noise, and avoiding the problem that the normal air discharge on the two sides is influenced by the overlarge difference value.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in
An air conditioning apparatus 100 according to embodiments of a second aspect of the present application will be described below with reference to the drawings.
As shown in
Thus, in the air conditioning apparatus 100 according to the embodiments of the present application, the cross-sectional area S2 of the end air outlet duct 232a is set to be smaller than the cross-sectional area S1 of the middle air outlet duct 231aa, such that the larger air outlet area exists in the middle in the length direction of the cross-flow air duct 23 (i.e., the axial direction of the cross-flow impeller 10), and may be matched with the higher air outlet speed, and the smaller air outlet areas exist at the two end portions and may be matched with the lower air outlet speeds, such that the airflow loads which are substantially the same exist in the whole length range of the cross-flow air duct 23, and the airflow is uniform, thus effectively improving the air-supply abnormal noise generated at the two end portions of the cross-flow air duct 23.
It should be noted that there is no limitation in the specific type of the air conditioning apparatus 100 according to the embodiments of the present application. For example, the air conditioning apparatus 100 may be configured as an air conditioner or an air sterilizer, or the like, and when configured as an air conditioner, the air conditioning apparatus 100 may further include a heat exchanger 30 which may be provided upstream and/or downstream of the air duct component 20, such that the air conditioner may adjust an air temperature. When configured as an air sterilizer, the air conditioning apparatus 100 may further include a sterilizing device which may be provided upstream and/or downstream of the air duct component 20, such that the air sterilizer may sterilize and disinfect air.
In addition, it should be noted that when the air conditioning apparatus 100 is configured as an air conditioner, there is no limitation in the specific type of the air conditioner, and the air conditioner may be configured as an air conditioner indoor unit (including a cabinet air conditioner indoor unit or a wall mount air conditioner indoor unit, or the like) in a split air conditioner, or a mobile air conditioner or a window air conditioner, or the like, in an all-in-one air conditioner. After the specific type of the air conditioning apparatus 100 is determined, other configurations and operations of the air conditioning apparatus 100 according to the embodiments of the present application are known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail herein.
For example, in some embodiments of the present application, as shown in
In some embodiments, 0.7D≤L1≤D, thus avoiding the abnormal noise due to a high speed of the air passing through the heat exchanger 30 caused by too small L1, and the large size and cost caused by too large L1. In some embodiments, 0.65D≤L2≤D, thus avoiding the abnormal noise caused by too small L2, and the large complete-machine size and cost caused by too large L2.
In order to meet cost and appearance requirements, a mobile air conditioner in the related art usually has a very small and compact space size, such that a distance from a heat exchanger to a cross-flow impeller is small, airflow passing through a heat exchanger has a high speed, whining noise is generated, and performance advantages of a cross-flow air duct are unable to be developed to the maximum extent.
The mobile air conditioner according to the above-mentioned embodiments of the present application has the cross-flow air duct 23 with the rear air inlet and the front upper air outlet, and through reasonable design of the cross-flow air duct 23, the heat exchanger 30 and the cross-flow impeller 10, for example, D=126 mm, L1=104.7 mm, L2=97 mm, H=63 mm, and the first middle volute section 21a and the second middle volute section 22a have the included angle α4=14.16°, such that the performance of the cross-flow air duct 23 may be improved greatly, and the duct abnormal noise may be improved, for example, 2 db to 2.5 db of noise may be reduced at substantially the same air volume as compared with a conventional cross-flow air duct.
