The indoor unit 10 provided in this embodiment may be installed on a ceiling in an indoor environment, and then an outer air return port is provided on a ceiling corresponding to the air return port 1131, and an air outlet is provided corresponding to the air outlet 1135, during the operation of the indoor unit 10, the wind wheel 2 rotates, and can suck the air flow in the indoor environment, the air flow sequentially enters the wind wheel cavity 1132 through the outer air return port and the air return port 1131, flows out from the air outlet 1135 and the air outlet after passing through the diffusion cavity 1133 and the heat exchange cavity 1134, and exchanges heat with the heat exchanger 3 in the heat exchange cavity 1134, and finally discharges the air flow after temperature change to the indoor environment through the air outlet.
The return air inlet 1131 may be formed on the bottom surface of the casing 1 or may be formed on the side surface of the casing 1; the first housing 111 includes a wind wheel cavity upper case 1111, a diffusion cavity upper case 1112, and a heat exchange cavity upper case 1113 connected together, a bottom surface of the wind wheel cavity upper case 1111 defines a cavity top wall of the wind wheel cavity 1132, a bottom surface of the diffusion cavity upper case 1112 defines a cavity top wall of the diffusion cavity 1133, a bottom surface of the heat exchange cavity upper case 1113 defines a cavity top wall of the heat exchange cavity 1134, and in order to close the air duct 113 in a length direction of the indoor unit 10, the first housing 111 may further include side plates 1114 positioned at both sides of the indoor unit 10 in the length direction.
The up-down direction is the same as the up-down direction in fig. 1 to 4, and the longitudinal direction of the indoor unit 10 is the same as the x-x axis direction in fig. 1 to 3; in addition, in the following description, the first housing 111 is further described as an example above the second housing 112.
Generally, since the indoor unit 10 has different modes in the operation state, an electric control module is required, in some embodiments, the indoor unit 10 further includes the electric control box 4, and since the electric control box in the related art is mounted on the side plate, when the electric control box needs to be overhauled, the grid at the air return opening on the ceiling and the cover plate of the corresponding electric control box on the ceiling need to be removed to overhauling the electric control box 4, so in order to overcome the defect, in the embodiment, the electric control box 4 is mounted on the bottom surface or the side surface of the casing 1, so that the electric control box 4 is exposed at the bottom or the side of the indoor unit 10. Thus, after the grille on the outer air return opening is opened, the electric control box 4 is exposed, and at this time, operations such as overhauling and the like can be performed on the electric control box 4.
Specifically, when the return air inlet 1131 is formed on the side surface of the casing 1, the electric control box 4 is installed on the side surface of the casing 1; when the return air inlet 1131 is formed on the bottom surface of the housing 1, the electronic control box 4 is mounted on the bottom surface of the housing 1, and in this embodiment, the return air inlet 1131 is formed on the bottom surface side of the housing 1, so that the electronic control box 4 is also mounted on the bottom surface of the housing 1.

Further, the wind wheel 2 of the present application may be a cross-flow wind wheel, and it can be understood that the cross-flow wind wheel has the characteristics of large air volume, low noise and compact structure of the indoor unit, and further, the casing 1 forms the wind wheel cavity 1132 to realize the installation of the cross-flow wind wheel, so compared with the related art, the present application adopts the form of a centrifugal fan with a centrifugal volute, and the indoor unit of the present application does not need to additionally provide a baffle structure for fixing the centrifugal volute in the air duct 113, so the structure is simplified.

In the operation process, under the drive of the wind wheel 2, the airflow discharged from the air outlet side of the wind wheel 2 sequentially flows through the diffusion cavity 1133 and the heat exchange cavity 1134 and then is discharged from the air outlet 1135, and when the airflow enters the joint of the diffusion cavity 1133 and the heat exchange cavity 1134, compared with the prior art adopting a centrifugal fan, the airflow is unlikely to swirl, the airflow flows more smoothly, and thus the airflow energy loss is less.

In other embodiments, the engagement structure between the cover 42 and the body 43 may be other. Here, other engagement structures are not limited.
The longitudinal direction of the electronic control box 4 is identical to the longitudinal direction of the indoor unit 10.
In order to facilitate the arrangement of other components or structural members in the indoor unit 10, the electronic control box 4 may be installed in the middle of the bottom surface of the casing 1, that is, it may be understood that the projection area of the electronic control box 4 on the second casing 112 covers the central axis of the second casing 112 along the width direction of the indoor unit 10, and in a specific embodiment, the central axis of the projection area of the electronic control box 4 on the second casing 112 coincides with the central axis of the second casing 112. So, not only be favorable to overall structure to indoor set 10 to lay out, be convenient for confirm the mounted position of automatically controlled box 4 moreover, promote the packaging efficiency of indoor set 10 that this embodiment provided to set up like this and make the focus setting of complete machine more reasonable, more balanced.
When the electric control box 4 is installed at the middle position of the bottom surface of the second casing 112, the wind wheel cavity 1132 and the heat exchange cavity 1134 are respectively located at two sides of the electric control box 4 along the width direction of the indoor unit 10, so that under the condition that the gravity center layout is reasonable, the space formed between the wind wheel cavity 1132 and the heat exchange cavity 1134 can be fully utilized, and the structural compactness of the indoor unit 10 provided by the embodiment can be improved.
The width direction of the indoor unit 10 described above corresponds to the y-y axis direction in fig. 1 to 4.
In order to mount the electric control box 4 on the bottom surface of the second casing 112, a mounting cavity 1115 with an opening facing the lower side of the indoor unit, that is, opposite to the outer return air inlet, may be formed on the bottom surface of the second casing 112 between the wind wheel cavity 1132 and the heat exchange cavity 1134, and both the wind wheel cavity 1132 and the outer return air inlet are communicated with the mounting cavity 1115; the electronic control box 4 is mounted in the mounting cavity 1115. In this way, by forming the installation cavity 1115 at the bottom of the second housing 112, an increase in the size of the indoor unit 10 in the up-down direction can be avoided, so that the overall structural compactness of the indoor unit 10 is strong.
It can be appreciated that when the installation cavity 1115 is formed on the bottom surface of the second housing 112, the electronic control box 4 can dissipate heat of the electronic control box 4 by using the air flow flowing in through the outer air return opening, and in order to make the heat dissipation performance of the electronic control box 4 better, the size of the installation cavity 1115 in the width direction of the indoor unit 10 gradually decreases in the direction away from the outer air return opening, that is, the opening of the air inlet side of the installation cavity 1115 is larger, so that more air flow can flow into the installation cavity 1115 to dissipate heat of the electronic control box 4, and thus the working condition that the electronic components in the electronic control box 4 are in too high temperature for a long time can be effectively reduced, the service life of the electronic components can be prolonged, and the reliability of the electronic components can be ensured.
While the shape of the second housing 112 may be adapted to provide a larger opening on the windward side of the mounting cavity 1115, in some alternative embodiments, the second housing 112 includes a water tray 1121 and a diffuser lower housing 1122 connected together; the water pan 1121 defines a cavity bottom wall of the heat exchange cavity 1134, the water pan 1121 including a pan bottom wall 1123 and a pan side wall 1124 connected together, the pan side wall 1124 being connected between the diffuser cavity bottom shell 1122 and the pan bottom wall 1123; the disk sidewall 1124 defines a partial chamber sidewall of the mounting chamber 1115, with opposite sides of the diffuser chamber lower housing 1122 forming a chamber bottom wall of the diffuser chamber 1133 and a chamber bottom wall of the mounting chamber 1115; wherein the cavity bottom wall of the mounting cavity 1115 forms an included angle of greater than or equal to 90 degrees with the cavity side wall of the mounting cavity 1115 defined by the disk side wall 1124. Like this, then make the opening of installation cavity 1115 be big in the one side size towards outside return air inlet, so, then make the air inlet area of the income wind side of installation cavity 1115 great for more wind can flow to automatically controlled box 4, carries out effective heat dissipation to automatically controlled box 4.
Specifically, the cavity side wall of the installation cavity 1115 defined by the disk side wall 1124 extends in the height direction of the indoor unit 10, and an included angle is formed between the side wall of the installation cavity 1115 and the vertical direction; the cavity bottom wall of the installation cavity 1115 extends in the width direction of the indoor unit 10, an included angle is formed between the cavity bottom wall of the installation cavity 1115 and the horizontal direction, and the included angle between the side wall of the installation cavity 1115 and the vertical direction is smaller than the included angle between the cavity bottom wall of the installation cavity 1115 and the horizontal direction.
It should be noted that, in combination with the above, the wind wheel 2 of the present application adopts a cross flow wind wheel, so that the indoor unit 10 has the characteristics of large air output and low noise. In addition, the wind wheel 2 is directly installed in the wind wheel cavity 1132, the dimension (i.e. the X-X direction) of the wind wheel 2 in the axial direction is matched with the dimension of the wind wheel cavity 1132 in the X-X direction, so that the surplus space of the wind wheel cavity 1132 in the X-X direction is less, the electric control box 4 is difficult to install, and in order to realize effective heat dissipation of the electric control box 4, if the dimension of the wind wheel cavity 1132 is increased to place the electric control box 4, the whole dimension of the indoor unit 10 is increased, so that the indoor unit 10 also ingeniously utilizes the space below the diffusion cavity lower shell 1122 to form an installation cavity 1115 under the condition that the air duct 113 is arranged as the fluent structure of the wind wheel cavity 1132, the diffusion cavity 1133 and the heat exchange cavity 1134 so as to reduce wind energy loss, and accommodates and installs the electric control box 4, so that the whole machine further realizes the advantage of convenient disassembly and assembly with the emphasis on the basis of compact structure.

As shown in fig. 18 to 21, in other embodiments, the case body 431 and one side of the lower diffuser 1122 along the length direction of the electronic control box 4 are detachably connected by a threaded fastener, and the case body 431 and the other side of the lower diffuser 1122 along the length direction of the electronic control box 4 are snap-connected.
Specifically, because the bottom of the box body 431 is smaller in the length direction of the electric control box 4, an avoidance space 4313 is formed on two sides of the bottom of the box body 431, a fifth threaded hole 4314 is formed on the top wall of the avoidance space 4313 on one side of the box body 431 along the length direction of the electric control box 4, a sixth threaded hole 1128 can be formed on the lower diffuser 1122, and a threaded fastener, such as a screw, can sequentially pass through the fifth threaded hole 4314 and the sixth threaded hole 1128 to detachably connect one side of the box body 431 along the length direction of the electric control box 4 with the lower diffuser 1122.
In order to avoid the influence of the opening of the sixth screw hole 1128 on the structural strength of the diffuser lower case 1122, a reinforcing column 1129 may be provided on the diffuser lower case 1122, the reinforcing column 1129 may extend into the corresponding avoiding space 4313, and the sixth screw hole 1128 may be opened on the reinforcing column 1129.

With continued reference to fig. 22 to 25, fig. 22 is a schematic perspective view of an indoor unit according to another embodiment of the present application, fig. 23 is an enlarged schematic perspective view of a portion of fig. 22 at a position M, fig. 24 is a schematic perspective view of an indoor unit according to another embodiment of the present application, and fig. 25 is an enlarged schematic perspective view of a portion of fig. 24 at a position N. As shown in fig. 22 to 25, in order to drain the water in the water receiving tray 1121, the indoor unit 10 provided in this embodiment may further include a drain pipe 5, and the drain pipe 5 is connected to the water receiving tray 1121. In this way, the condensed water is prevented to some extent from being accumulated in the water receiving tray 1121, which may cause the indoor unit 10 to leak out of the condensed water and leak out of the room.
In order to improve the compactness of the indoor unit 10 provided in this embodiment, in some alternative embodiments, the space between the electric control box 4 and the cavity 1118 of the installation cavity 1115 may be penetrated by the water supply and drainage pipe 5 and the refrigerant pipe 6. In this way, the electronic control box 4, the drain pipe 5 and the refrigerant pipe 6 can be accommodated in the installation cavity 1115, so that the indoor unit 10 provided in this embodiment is more compact in structural layout.
Specifically, the refrigerant pipe 6 includes an air pipe 61 and a liquid pipe 62, one end of the air pipe 61 is connected to the heat exchanger 3, the other end is connected to the outdoor unit, one end of the liquid pipe 62 is connected to the heat exchanger 3, and the other end is connected to the outdoor unit, so that in the refrigeration process, the refrigerant is transferred to the heat exchanger 3 through the liquid pipe 62 in a liquid state, and the heat exchanger 3 converts the refrigerant from the liquid state into a gaseous state, and then is transferred to the outdoor unit through the air pipe 61, and in the process, the refrigerant absorbs heat and takes away the heat to realize refrigeration; in the heating process, the refrigerant is transmitted to the heat exchanger 3 through the air pipe 61 in a gaseous form, so that the heat exchanger 3 converts the refrigerant from the gaseous form into a liquid form, and then is transmitted to the outdoor unit through the liquid pipe 62, and in the process, the refrigerant releases heat to realize heating.
In the related art, when the installation position of the outdoor unit is located in the opposite direction of the joint position of the drain pipe and the refrigerant pipe, the drain pipe and the refrigerant pipe need to be connected with the outdoor unit only by one turn on the body of the indoor unit, so that the pipe is complicated to walk, the length of the pipe can be increased, and the cost is increased. To overcome this disadvantage, in some alternative embodiments, each side plate 1114 has a tube cutout 1116 in communication with the mounting cavity 1115, and the air tube 61, liquid tube 62, and drain tube 5 can extend out of the mounting cavity 1115 through the tube cutout 1116 in either side plate 1114. In this way, the drain pipe 5, the air pipe 61 and the liquid pipe 62 can extend out of the installation cavity 1115 from the pipe notch 1116 on the side plate 1114 near the outdoor unit according to the installation position of the outdoor unit, so that the pipe can be prevented from being wound on the outer side of the indoor unit 10, and the pipe running of the indoor unit 10 is simpler.
In order to avoid the damage of the air pipe 61, the liquid pipe 62 or the drain pipe 5 when penetrating the outlet notch 1116, the mouth wall of the outlet notch 1116 is smooth, so that no sharp point exists on the mouth wall of the outlet notch 1116, and the air pipe 61, the liquid pipe 62 or the drain pipe 5 cannot be scratched to cause leakage of refrigerant or condensed water due to the fact that the sharp point is touched when touching the mouth wall of the outlet notch 1116, so that the service lives of the drain pipe 5 and the refrigerant pipe 6 are longer.
If the lower portion of the outlet notch 1116 is completely opened, the drain pipe 5 and/or the refrigerant pipe 6 may fall after extending out of the mounting cavity 1115, which may damage the drain pipe 5 and/or the refrigerant pipe 6, so that a supporting structure connected to the side plate 1114 may be disposed below the outlet notch 1116 to support the drain pipe 5 and/or the refrigerant pipe 6.
Specifically, referring to fig. 25, the support structure may be a support member 1117 connected to the side plate 1114, the support member 1117 extends along the width direction of the outlet opening 1116, in this embodiment, the extending direction of the support member 1117 coincides with the width direction of the indoor unit 10, and the support member 1117 may be a sheet metal member connected to the side plate 1114 and located below the outlet opening 1116, for example, a support plate formed by bending. Here, the specific shape of the support 1117 is not limited.
In some embodiments, in order to avoid an excessive temperature difference between the medium in the refrigerant pipe 6 and the air outside the refrigerant pipe 6, the heat insulation sleeve 7 may be wrapped on the outer side of the refrigerant pipe 6, so that condensation on the inner walls of the air pipe 61 and the liquid pipe 62 can be avoided to a certain extent.
It should be noted that there may be two heat-insulating sleeves 7, and the two heat-insulating sleeves 7 are respectively wrapped on the outer sides of the air pipe 61 and the liquid pipe 62; the heat preservation sleeve 7 can also be one, and the air pipe 61 and the liquid pipe 62 are jointly covered by one heat preservation sleeve 7. In the specific embodiment of the present embodiment, the heat insulating jacket 7 is one in order to reduce the manufacturing cost of the indoor unit 10, that is, the latter case. Here, the number of the heat insulating jackets 7 in the present embodiment is not limited.
The heat insulation sleeve 7 can be made of glass wool, rubber plastic sponge or polyurethane, so that the heat insulation sleeve 7 has the characteristics of excellent heat insulation performance, corrosion resistance, moisture resistance and the like, has good processing performance, and can be processed into various shapes and thicknesses to adapt to refrigerant pipes 6 with different shapes and sizes.
While the projected area of the insulating sleeve 7 on the side plate 1114 is positioned within the outlet aperture 1116 in order to allow the insulating sleeve 7 to maintain a durable insulating effect. Like this, can avoid the exit tube breach 1116 to produce the extrusion to heat preservation cover 7 to avoid the outer wall of heat preservation cover 7 to take place wearing and tearing to a certain extent, then can make heat preservation cover 7 keep lasting heat preservation effect.

In this way, since the height at the water discharge port 1141 is lower than the height at the water inlet of the water discharge groove 1140, water located in the water discharge groove 1140 is allowed to flow along the water discharge groove 1140 toward the water discharge port 1141, so that water in the water receiving tray 1121 can be rapidly discharged through the water discharge pipe 5.
While, in order to promote the smoothness of the flow of water in the water discharge groove 1140, in some embodiments, the bottom wall of the water discharge groove 1140 is an inclined wall. In this way, the flow resistance of the water flowing in the water discharge groove 1140 is made small, so that the water in the water receiving tray 1121 can be rapidly discharged from the water discharge groove 1140.
