Definitions

  • the invention relates to an air conditioner.
  • an air conditioner comprising a louver arrangement.
  • the louver arrangement can be used to adjust the outlet air flow from the air-conditioner.
  • Air conditioning is a collective expression for conditioning air into a desired state.
  • an air-conditioner can be used to treat air. It could be heating the air during cold periods, cooling the air during warmer periods or for cleaning/purifying the air if it contains unwanted particles. It can also humidify or dehumidify air.
  • an air conditioner has an air inlet some air treatment component and an air outlet,
  • the final output from the air-conditioner is conditioned air blown into a room or some other space. It is typically desired that the air is delivered at low noise, in a sufficient amount and also the process of delivering air should be energy efficient.
  • louver can be used at the air output from the air-conditioner.
  • a louver can be described as a movable element provided to displace air blown by a fan of the air-conditioner.
  • One or more such movable elements or louvers can be provided at the air outlet.
  • the louver(s) can deflect the air stream and aim it at a specific direction.
  • JP3748049 describes a louver arrangement comprising two louver groups that can be controlled separately through the rotation of a cam shaft of an eccentric cam respectively to a predetermined angle.
  • an air conditioner in particular an air purifier
  • the air conditioner comprises a fan and an air outlet.
  • the air conditioner further comprises a louver arrangement comprising a first louver and a second louver.
  • Each of the first and second louver comprises a set of parallel vanes that can be angled with respect to the air outlet.
  • the louver arrangement further comprises a first drive arrangement connected to the first louver for driving the first louver, and a second drive arrangement connected to the second louver for driving the second louver.
  • the air conditioner also comprises a control unit configured to control the drive of the first and second drive arrangements, respectively. and the control unit is configured to drive each of the louvers independently in a swinging motion.
  • additional control options for the user can be obtained and also a mode of operation where space coverage for conditioned air can be increased.
  • an air purifier it can be beneficial to provide purified air to an entire room so that purified air reaches the entire room.
  • control unit is configured to drive one of the louvers in a swinging motion and keep one of the louvers at a fixed angle.
  • a comfortable mode of operation for the air conditioner can be provided.
  • a fixed vane is located between the first louver and the second louver.
  • the air outlet is a vertical air outlet located at the top of the air-conditioner.
  • an efficient and comfortable air stream can be provided from the air outlet.
  • the air-purifier 10 has a control panel 16.
  • the control panel 16 is in the embodiment of Fig. 1 located at the front of the top of the air purifier 10.
  • the control panel 16 acts as a user interface whereby a user can b control various functions of the air-purifier 10. Such functions can be ON/OFF, fan speed and also the louver arrangement 20.
  • a fixed vane 26 can be located between the first louver 22 and the second louver 24.
  • the fixed vane 26 can act to improve stability and make the louver arrangement 20 more robust.
  • the individual vanes can be interconnected to a set of shafts 28.
  • three shafts 28 interconnect the vanes of the first louver 22 and a set of three shafts 28 interconnects the vanes of the second louver 24.
  • the shafts 28 can advantageously run in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the vanes of the first louver 22 and the second louver 24.
