Abstract: An air conditioner unit may include a housing, an outdoor heat exchanger assembly, an indoor heat exchanger assembly, a compressor, and a sterilization light assembly. The housing may define an indoor portion and outdoor portion. The housing may further define an exhaust outlet downstream from the indoor portion to exhaust air. The outdoor heat exchanger assembly may be disposed in the outdoor portion and include an outdoor heat exchanger. The indoor heat exchanger assembly may be disposed in the indoor portion and include an indoor heat exchanger and an indoor fan. The compressor may be in fluid communication with the outdoor heat exchanger and the indoor heat exchanger to circulate a refrigerant between the outdoor heat exchanger and the indoor heat exchanger. The sterilization light assembly may be disposed within the indoor portion below the indoor fan and directed forward to transmit an ultraviolet light emission within the indoor portion.

Abstract: Provided are an air purification device (100) and an air conditioner (1000). The air purification device (100) includes a housing (1), a filter module (2), and a plurality of power supply elements (3). The housing (1) has an accommodation cavity (11). The filter module (2) is disposed within the accommodation cavity (11) and has a plurality of electrical connectors (21) provided thereon and arranged at intervals in a first direction. The plurality of power supply elements (3) are arranged at intervals at the housing (1) in the first direction and have a one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of electrical connectors (21). Each of the plurality of power supply elements (3) has a plurality of power supply contacts (31). When the plurality of electrical connectors (21) is in contact with one of the plurality of power supply contacts (31) of each of the plurality of power supply elements (3), the power supply elements (3) is electrically connected to the electrical connectors (21). Therefore, it is possible to allow for diversified mounting positions of the filter module (2) and improve mounting flexibility of the filter module (2). In addition, optimization of an internal structure of each of the air purification device (100) and the air conditioner (1000) having the air purification device (100) are facilitated.
