Abstract

An air outlet assembly and an air conditioning equipment are provided in the present application. The air outlet assembly includes an inner shell, and the inner shell is configured with a first air duct and an air outlet connected to the first air duct; an outer shell, the outer shell is arranged around an outside of the inner shell to define a second air duct with the inner shell, and the second air duct is connected to the first air duct; and a supporting member connected to the inner shell and the outer shell. The present application aims to solve a technical problem of insufficient stability of the air outlet assembly and can quickly reduce an indoor temperature difference and improve a sensory effect.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An air outlet assembly, comprising:
 an inner shell, the inner shell configured with a first air duct and an air outlet connected with the first air duct;   an outer shell, the outer shell arranged around an outside of the inner shell to define a second air duct between the outer shell and the inner shell; and the second air duct connected with the first air duct; and   a supporting member, the supporting member connected to the inner shell and the outer shell.   
     
     
         2 . An air conditioning equipment, wherein the air conditioning equipment comprises the air outlet assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , and at least a part of the supporting member is arranged in the second air duct. 
     
     
         3 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein an end portion of the inner shell facing away from the air outlet is bent towards the outer shell to form a warping portion, and the warping portion is connected to the supporting member. 
     
     
         4 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the supporting member is embedded in the warping portion. 
     
     
         5 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein one side of the outer shell facing the inner shell is provided with an extending portion extending towards the inner shell, and the extending portion is connected to the supporting member. 
     
     
         6 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the supporting member is snap-connected to the extending portion. 
     
     
         7 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the supporting member comprises a first end and a second end arranged opposite to each other; the first end is fixedly connected to the inner shell, and the second end is fixedly connected to the outer shell. 
     
     
         8 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the air outlet assembly further comprises:
 an air-guiding shell, one end of the air-guiding shell is connected to the outer shell, and another end of the air-guiding shell is bent and extends towards the inner shell to form a mouth; and the mouth is spaced from the warping portion to define a third air duct connected to the second air duct.   
     
     
         9 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein a cross-sectional area of the third air duct gradually decreases along a flow direction of air flow in the third air duct. 
     
     
         10 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein the air outlet assembly further comprises an air inlet arranged opposite to the air outlet, and the air inlet is connected to the first air duct. 
     
     
         11 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein a ratio of a diameter of the air outlet to a diameter of the air inlet is between 4:3 and 3:1. 
     
     
         12 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the warping portion is provided with a reinforcing structure, and the reinforcing structure is connected to the supporting member. 
     
     
         13 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein one side of the outer shell facing the inner shell is provided with a groove, and the supporting member is embedded in the groove. 
     
     
         14 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein there are a plurality of the supporting members, and the plurality of supporting members are arranged at intervals along a circumferential direction of the inner shell. 
     
     
         15 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein there are a plurality of the warping portions, and the plurality of warping portions are arranged in the inner shell circumferentially at intervals. 
     
     
         16 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein a windward surface of the supporting member is a curved surface. 
     
     
         17 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein a cross-sectional area of the first air duct gradually increases along a flow direction of air flow in the first air duct. 
     
     
         18 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the outer shell is configured with an air inlet channel connected with the second air duct; and
 the air conditioning equipment further comprises an air supply assembly, and the air supply assembly is connected to the outer shell; and the air supply assembly has an air supply channel, and the air supply channel is connected to the air inlet channel.   
     
     
         19 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the warping portion is an annular structure arranged in the inner shell. 
     
     
         20 . The air conditioning equipment as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the supporting member is configured with a plurality of grids for air flow to pass inside the supporting member.
