DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in accompanying drawings. The embodiments described herein with reference to drawings are explanatory, illustrative, and used to generally understand the present disclosure. The embodiments shall not be construed to limit the present disclosure.

A wall-mounted air conditioner 1 according to embodiments of the present disclosure is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 3, the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 according to embodiments of the present disclosure includes a housing 100, a fan wheel 300 and a heat exchanger 200. A front surface of the housing 100 is provided with a first air inlet 101. The fan wheel 300 is arranged in the housing 100, and the heat exchanger 200 is arranged in the housing 100. At least a part of the heat exchanger 200 is located between the first air inlet 101 and the fan wheel 300, and a distance between either of an upper end and a lower end of the heat exchanger 200 and the fan wheel 300 is less than a distance between a middle portion of the heat exchanger 200 and the fan wheel 300.

As illustrated in FIG. 2, the front surface of the housing 100 is a surface of the housing 100 that can be seen by a horizontal backward line of sight. That is, the surface of the housing 100 that can be seen by the horizontal backward line of sight is the front surface of the housing. For example, when an observer's eyes are roughly at the same level as the housing 100 and the observer is located in front of the housing 100, the surface of the housing 100 that can be seen by the observer is the front surface of the housing 100. For example, the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 may be mounted on a wall surface. A direction away from the wall surface along the horizontal direction represents a forward direction, and a direction towards the wall surface along the horizontal direction represents a rearward direction. A front-and-rear direction is as indicated by an arrow A in FIG. 2, and an up-and-down direction is as indicated by an arrow B in FIG. 2.

It should be noted that, as illustrated in FIG. 2, the distance between either of the upper end and the lower end of the heat exchanger 200 and the fan wheel 300 may be understood as a shortest distance between any point of an upper portion of the heat exchanger 200 and an outer circumferential face of the fan wheel 300 and a shortest distance between any point of the upper portion of the heat exchanger 200 and the outer circumferential face of the fan wheel 300. The distance between the middle portion of the heat exchanger 200 and the fan wheel 300 may be understood as a shortest distance between any point of the middle portion of the heat exchanger 200 and an outer circumferential face of the fan wheel 300.

The wall-mounted air conditioner 1 according to embodiments of the present disclosure may be hanged on an indoor wall, and the ambient air does not need to enter an interior of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 from directly above the housing. Thus, a distance between the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 and an indoor top wall may be (e.g., greatly) reduced or removed, the indoor space utilization, in particular for the indoor space with low height, may be improved, and sense of crampedness of the indoor space may be effectively reduced or eliminated. The wall-mounted air conditioner 1 according to embodiments of the present disclosure has very low requirements for mounting space, and as long as the mounting space can accommodate the wall-mounted air conditioner 1, there is no need to leave air inlet space above the wall-mounted air conditioner 1, which can expand the applicability of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1.

In some optional embodiments, a part of the first air inlet 101 located at the front surface of the housing 100 is inclined upwards towards the wall, which may be understood as an mounting surface, relative to the vertical plane. In in this way, when a user stands on an indoor floor, the user cannot see the interior of the housing 100 (the wall-mounted air conditioner 1) through the first air inlet 101, and the internal structure of the housing 100 (the wall-mounted air conditioner 1) is not exposed to the user. Thus, the visual comfort of the user may be improved.

Furthermore, in scenarios where the air enters from the top, the top space is often limited and narrow, and the air inflow volume will be limited due to the narrow top space. In some embodiments, the first air inlet 101 is arranged at the front surface of the housing 100 such that the air entering the housing 100 via the first air inlet 101 passes through the heat exchanger 200 directly for adequate heat exchange with the heat exchanger 200. That is to say, the air inflow volume of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 may not be limited by the narrow space at the top. The air enters from the front surface of the housing 100, the air inflow volume may be effectively increased, the flow rate of the air passing through the heat exchanger 200 may be significantly improved, and the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger 200 may be (e.g., greatly) improved.

In the present application, the first air inlet 101 is located in a front surface of the housing 100. Thus, there is no need to arrange a heat exchanger 200 in a roughly inverted V shape below the first air inlet 101. That is, it is unnecessary to mount a water receiving tray having a width greater than or equal to a width of the roughly inverted V-shaped heat exchanger 200 at a lower end portion of the heat exchanger 200. Since the first air inlet 101 is located in the front surface of the housing 100, the water receiving tray 600 will not prevent the airflow from flowing to the heat exchanger 200. For example, the water receiving tray 600 may not pass an airflow path to the heat exchanger 200, which can (e.g., greatly) improve the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger 200. Optionally, the water receiving tray 600 is arranged below the heat exchanger 200.

In addition, in some embodiments, the distance between the middle portion of the heat exchanger 200 and the fan wheel 300 is greater than the distance between the upper portion of the heat exchanger 200 and the fan wheel 300, compared to a conventional structure with a consistent distance between the inner side surface of the heat exchanger 200 and the fan wheel 300, the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 of the present disclosure can increase an air inflow volume in the housing 100 and may improve the air inflow volume of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1, such that the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 can have high heat exchange efficiency.

Preferably, as illustrated in FIG. 2, the minimum distance between the heat exchanger 200 and the fan wheel 300 is L1, and the minimum distance L1 is greater than or equal to 15 millimeters. The inventors found through experimental research that, when the minimum distance L1 between the heat exchanger 200 and the fan wheel 300 is greater than or equal to 15 millimeters, the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 according to embodiments of the present disclosure may increase air inflow volume in the housing 100 while reducing inner size of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1, such that the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 can ensure high heat exchange efficiency and reduce the size of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1.

Optionally, the minimum distance L1 between the heat exchanger 200 and the fan wheel 300 is greater than or equal to 20 millimeters, and less than or equal to 50 millimeters. Further optionally, the minimum distance L1 between the heat exchanger 200 and the fan wheel 300 is greater than or equal to 30 millimeters, and less than or equal to 40 millimeters. Further optionally, the minimum distance L1 between the heat exchanger 200 and the fan wheel 300 is greater than or equal to 36 millimeters and less than or equal to the 39 millimeters, the air inflow volume in the housing 100 may be increased while reducing an inner size of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1, such that the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 can ensure high heat exchange efficiency and reduce the size of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1.

Optionally, for example, the minimum distance L1 between the heat exchanger 200 and the fan wheel 300 may be but not limited to 15 millimeters, 20 millimeters, 25 millimeters, 30 millimeters, 35 millimeters, 36 millimeters, 37 millimeters, 38 millimeters, 39 millimeters, 40 millimeters, 45 millimeters or 50 millimeters.

In some embodiments, as illustrated in FIG. 2, the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 further includes an air duct 102 and a fan wheel 300. The air duct 102 is located in the housing 100, and the air duct 102 includes an air inflow section 1021 and an air outflow section 1022 connected to each other. The air inflow section 1021 has an inlet air duct, and the air outflow section 1022 has an outlet air duct. A part of the fan wheel 300 is located in the inlet air duct, and the rest of the fan wheel 300 is located in the outlet air duct.

The fan wheel 300 is configured to generate an air exhaust force, such that the air enter the inlet air duct from the first air inlet 101, passes through the fan wheel 300, enters the outlet air duct and finally is discharged from an air outlet of the outlet air duct. The heat exchanger 200 is located in the inlet air duct, and arranged at the first air inlet 101, and the heat exchanger 200 is corresponding to the first air inlet 101, to exchange heat with the air entering inlet air duct from the first air inlet 101. The wall-mounted air conditioner 1 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is provided with the fan wheel 300 in the air duct 102, and thus can improve the flow volume and velocity of the air passing through the heat exchanger 200, to further improve the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger 200. Furthermore, the fan wheel 300 is arranged at a junction of the inlet air duct and the outlet air duct, and thus the structure of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 may be more reasonable.

Further, as illustrated in FIG. 2, in a vertical plane perpendicular to a length direction of the air duct 102, the rotation axis of the fan wheel 300 and the vertical plane are intersected at a base point O, and a distance between the upper end of the heat exchanger 200 and a vertical line passing through the base point O is L2, and the L2 is greater than zero. It should be noted that the length direction of the air duct 102 is indicated by an arrow C illustrated in FIG. 3. The length direction of the air duct 102 may be consistent with a length direction of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1. That is, the length direction of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 is along the direction indicated by the arrow C in FIG. 3.

The inventors of the present application found through experimental research that, L2 is greater than zero, the probability of condensation water generated during the operation of the heat exchanger 200 flowing into the air outflow section 1022 can be reduced, and the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger 200 can be ensured while reducing the size of the heat exchanger 200, optimizing the layout of an internal space of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1. Optionally, L2 is greater than or equal to 3 millimeters and less than or equal to 8 millimeters. Thus, the probability of the condensation water generated during the operation of the heat exchanger 200 flowing into the air outflow section 1022 can be further reduced, and the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger 200 is better.

Optionally, L2 may be but not limited to 3 millimeters, 3.5 millimeters, 4 millimeters, 4.5 millimeters, 5 millimeters, 5.5 millimeters, 6 millimeters, 6.5 millimeters, 7 millimeters, 7.5 millimeters or 8 millimeters.

Further, as illustrated in FIG. 2, in a vertical plane perpendicular to a length direction of the air duct 102 (e.g., a direction indicated by an arrow C illustrated in FIG. 3), the rotation axis of the fan wheel 300 and the vertical plane are intersected at the base point O, and a first connection line between a middle point H of a projection of an inner side surface of the heat exchanger 200 and the base point O is L3. The first connection line L3 substantially coincides with a centerline of the air inflow section 1021. It could be understood that, the first connection line L13 substantially coincides with the centerline of the air inflow section 1021, and the heat exchanger 200 is directly corresponding to the first air inlet 101 and the fan wheel 300, such that the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger 200 may be better and the heat exchange efficiency of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 may be further enhanced.

Optionally, as illustrated in FIG. 2, the heat exchanger 200 is corresponding to the first air inlet 101, the heat exchanger 200 is curved or bent towards first air inlet 101. Optionally, the heat exchanger 200 is in an arc shape protruding towards (e.g., the heat exchanger 200 is arced towards) the first air inlet 101. In the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 according to embodiments of the present disclosure, the heat exchanger 200 is corresponding to the first air inlet 101, such that the air entering the housing 100 may directly contact the heat exchanger 200 for heat exchange to shorten an air inflow path of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1. Moreover, the heat exchanger 200 has a curved or bent structure, and thus a heat exchange area of the heat exchanger 200 may be increased, improving the heat exchange efficiency of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1.

In some embodiments, as illustrated in FIG. 2, a position of the middle portion of the heat exchanger 200 is higher than the rotation axis of the fan wheel 300. It could be understood that, the heat exchanger 200 is arranged between the first air inlet 101 and the fan wheel 300, and the first air inlet 101 opens towards the direct front and/or the front upper part and/or the front lower part of the housing 100 such that the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 can achieve air inflow from the front. Furthermore, a protruding direction of the heat exchanger 200 is towards the first air inlet 101, and the heat exchanger 200 may perform adequate heat exchange with the air entering the first air inlet 101, and may further improve the heat exchange efficiency of the wall-mounted air conditioner 11.

In some embodiments, as illustrated in FIG. 2, a thickness of the heat exchanger 200 gradually decreases along a direction from a middle portion of the heat exchanger 200 to an upper end of the heat exchanger 200 (a direction from bottom to top as illustrated in FIG. 2), and the thickness of the heat exchanger 200 gradually decreases along a direction from the middle portion of the heat exchanger 200 to a lower end of the heat exchanger 200 (a direction from top to bottom as illustrated in FIG. 1). It could be understood that, the thickness of the middle portion of the heat exchanger 200 is greater than the thicknesses of the two ends of the heat exchanger 200.

When the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 is in operation, the heat exchanger 200 has a structure protruding towards (e.g., the heat exchanger 200 has a structure that is bent towards) the first air inlet 101 such that the air entering the first air inlet 101 contacts with the middle portion of the heat exchanger 200. The heat exchanger 200 of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 according to embodiments of the present disclosure has a relatively large middle portion, which may perform heat exchange with the majority of the air entering the first air inlet 101. Moreover, the air inflow volume at an edge of the first air inlet 101 is smaller than at the middle portion of the first air inlet 101. Thus, the thicknesses of the upper end of the heat exchanger 200 and the lower end of the heat exchanger 200 can be reduced, and the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger 200 is not affected. The wall-mounted air conditioner 1 according to embodiments of the present disclosure may ensure the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger 200 while reducing the size of the heat exchanger 200, reducing the production cost of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1.

In some embodiments, the housing 100 has a second air inlet (not illustrated), and the second air inlet is located in a top surface of the housing 100, e.g., an upper end face of the housing 100 as illustrated in FIG. 2. It could be understood that, the upper end of the housing 100 is provided with the second air inlet such that the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 can receive the air from the top, to further increase the air inflow volume.

Specifically, a part of the heat exchanger 200 is located between the first air inlet 101 and the fan wheel 300, and another part of the heat exchanger 200 is located between the second air inlet and the fan wheel 300. It could be understood that, the first air inlet 101 and the second air inlet are corresponding to the heat exchanger 200 to improve the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger 200. That is, the air entering the inlet air duct from the first air inlet 101 and the second air inlet passes through the heat exchanger 200 for heat exchange, and then is guided into the outlet air duct under the rotation action of the fan wheel 300. The applicability range of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 may be expanded, to meet use requirements of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 in different occasions.

In some embodiments, as illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 3, the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 further includes an air-inlet grille 400. The air-inlet grille 400 includes a frame 401 and a plurality of blades 402, the frame 401 is arranged at the first air inlet 101, and the plurality of blades 402 is arranged along a circumferential direction of the housing 100. Each blade 402 is rotatably arranged at the frame 401 between an open position and a closed position. Therefore, when the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 stops operation, the blades 402 may be rotated to the closed position to cover the first air inlet 101, to prevent from dust and impurity from entering the housing 100, reduce cleaning frequency of the interior of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1, and result in high utility.

Optionally, as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, when the air-inlet grille 400 is in the closed position, the cross section of the air-inlet grille 400 is an arc-shaped surface, and the arc-shaped surface protrudes outwards (e.g., the air-inlet grille 400 is arced outwards). It could be understood that, the air-inlet grille 400 in the closed position has an arc-shaped structure protruding forwards, thus a surface area of the air-inlet grille 400 may be increased such that more air can enter the housing 100 through the air-inlet grille 400, to further increase the air inflow volume of the first air inlet 101.

Further, as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 further includes a filter screen 500. The filter screen 500 is arranged between the air-inlet grille 400 and the heat exchanger 200. The wall-mounted air conditioner 1 according to embodiments of the present disclosure is provided with the filter screen 500, which may filter the air entering the first air inlet 101, reduce the probability of the dust and the impurity entering the interior of the housing 100 and reduce the later use and maintenance costs of the wall-mounted air conditioner 1.

Preferably, the filter screen 500 is detachably connected to the housing 100, to facilitate daily cleaning of the filter screen 500. Specifically, a cross section of the filter screen 500 is also an arc surface, and the protruding directions of the filter screen 500, the heat exchanger 200 and the air-inlet grille 400 are consistent. Thus, the wall-mounted air conditioner 1 may have a compact structure, and a relatively high cleanliness.
