Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioner technology, and in particular to an air guide plate assembly for air conditioners and an air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the micro-perforated air guide plate structure of air conditioners typically adopts a design of evenly distributing multiple straight-hole micro-perforations on the air guide plate. This type of structure can achieve airflow diffusion to a certain extent, but because the perforations are straight cylindrical, the airflow is prone to forming a concentrated directional jet when passing through the micro-perforations, resulting in poor airflow uniformity. At the same time, the airflow is sent out at a high speed without sufficient turbulence and attenuation, which can easily cause users to experience a noticeable wind impact, reducing the gentleness and comfort of the airflow and affecting the overall user experience.

The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 3 This invention describes an air guide plate assembly 200 for air conditioning and an air conditioner according to embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that the following description is merely an illustrative embodiment of the present invention and does not constitute any particular limitation on the present invention.

[0029] An embodiment of the first aspect of this utility model provides an air guide plate assembly 200 for an air conditioner, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it includes: a guide vane body 210; and multiple flow holes 220, with each flow hole 220 arranged at intervals on the guide vane body 210.

[0030] The flow passage 220 includes: a flow guide section 221, which is arranged on the inner side of the air guide plate body 210 and extends along the thickness direction of the air guide plate body 210; and a diffuser section 222, which is arranged on the outer side of the air guide plate body 210 and extends along the thickness direction of the air guide plate body 210, and the diffuser section 222 is connected to the flow guide section 221.

[0031] The air guide plate assembly 200 for air conditioning provided by this utility model includes an air guide plate body 210 and a plurality of flow holes 220. The plurality of flow holes 220 are spaced apart on the air guide plate body 210. For example, the plurality of flow holes 220 are evenly distributed on the air guide plate body 210. Each flow hole 220 includes a guiding section 221 and a diffuser section 222. The guiding section 221 is located on the inner side of the air guide plate body 210, and the diffuser section 222 is located on the outer side of the air guide plate body 210. Both the guiding section 221 and the diffuser section 222 extend along the thickness direction of the air guide plate body 210, and are interconnected. Alternatively, the first end of the guide section 221 extends to the inner side of the air guide plate body 210, and the second end of the guide section 221 extends along the thickness direction of the air guide plate body 210 into the interior of the air guide plate body 210. The first end of the diffuser section 222 extends to the outer side of the air guide plate body 210, and the second end of the diffuser section 222 extends along the thickness direction of the air guide plate into the interior of the air guide plate body 210 and communicates with the second end of the guide section 221. The guide section 221 can guide the airflow inside the air conditioner into the flow hole 220, and the diffuser section 222 can diffuse the airflow in the guide section 221 into the room.

[0032] As described above, by setting a flow passage 220 consisting of a guide section 221 and a diffuser section 222, the guide section 221 guides the airflow, and the diffuser section 222 effectively diffuses the airflow to avoid concentrated directional jets, thus significantly improving the uniformity of air supply. At the same time, the airflow velocity is reduced and fully turbulent attenuated during the diffusion process, solving the problem of strong wind impact in traditional designs, and ultimately achieving the technical effect of soft airflow and high comfort.

[0033] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the guide section 221 is a tapered section. The larger end of the tapered section is located on the inner side of the guide plate body 210, and the smaller end of the tapered section is located inside the guide plate body 210.

[0034] Furthermore, in one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the diffuser section 222 is a gradually expanding section. The small opening of the gradually expanding section is located inside the air guide plate body 210 and is connected to the small opening of the gradually contracting section. The large opening of the gradually expanding section is located on the outer side of the air guide plate body 210.

[0035] Through this structural design, the tapered guide section 221 accelerates and focuses the airflow inside the air conditioner, significantly improving the airflow guiding effect of the through-holes 220, ensuring sufficient airflow supply, and laying a good foundation for subsequent diffusion treatment. After the airflow is accelerated by the tapered section, the flow cross-section gradually increases in the connected expanding section, thereby achieving a significant and smooth attenuation of airflow velocity. This process eliminates the concentrated high-speed jet generated by traditional straight-hole structures, and the wind speed at the outlet of the final diffusion section 222 is effectively controlled within the range imperceptible to the human body, achieving truly gentle and shock-free comfortable airflow. At the same time, the structural design of the expanding section makes the outflowing airflow conical, greatly increasing the airflow diffusion angle. The diffused airflows emitted from different through-holes 220 can converge and merge earlier and more fully, thereby breaking up local hot and cold zones, making the indoor temperature distribution more uniform, and effectively expanding the coverage of comfortable airflow. In addition, this composite channel structure makes the airflow change smoother, avoiding eddies and turbulent noise caused by sudden expansion of airflow at the outlet of straight holes. At the same time, the smooth reduction in speed also reduces the noise generated by airflow and air friction, resulting in a low-noise and quiet operating experience.

[0036] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the diameter of the small end of the tapering section is smaller than the diameter of the small end of the expanding section.

[0037] By making the diameter of the small opening of the converging section smaller than that of the small opening of the expanding section, a tiny pre-expansion cavity is formed at the junction of the two. This allows the high-speed airflow to undergo a preliminary expansion and turbulent mixing after exiting the converging section, effectively optimizing the flow direction and attenuating the kinetic energy. This not only lays a more uniform flow field foundation for the smooth diffusion of the airflow in the expanding section, but also further improves the uniformity of air supply and diffusion efficiency.

[0038] The air guide plate body 210 and its passage holes can be manufactured by injection molding. For example, in one embodiment of this utility model, the diffuser section 222 is a front mold injection molding structure; the guide section 221 is a rear mold injection molding structure.

[0039] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the distance between the parting surface 223 between the front mold injection molding structure and the rear mold injection molding structure and the large end face of the tapering section is the first distance; the distance between the parting surface 223 between the front mold injection molding structure and the rear mold injection molding structure and the large end face of the tapering section is the second distance. The first distance is less than the second distance.

[0040] For example, the parting surface 223 can be set on the outer side of the air guide plate body 210 to one-third of its thickness. This reduces the difficulty of demolding the front mold.

[0041] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the air guide plate assembly 200 for air conditioning also includes a rotatable connection part 230, one end of which is connected to the inner side of the air guide plate body 210, and the other end of which is used to rotatably connect to the air conditioner indoor unit housing 100.

[0042] In one embodiment of the present invention, the air guide plate assembly 200 for air conditioning further includes: a rotation drive mechanism, which is connected to the rotation connection part 230 and is used to drive the rotation connection part 230 to rotate the air guide plate body 210.

[0043] For example, the rotating connection 230 includes two connecting ears, which are respectively connected to the inner ends of the air guide plate body 210. The connecting ears can be rotatably connected to the housing of the indoor unit of the air conditioner. The rotation drive mechanism can drive the connecting ears to rotate, thereby causing the air guide plate body 210 to flip to adjust the air supply direction.

[0044] It should be noted that this utility model does not limit the specific type of the rotation drive mechanism. For example, in one embodiment of this utility model, the rotation drive mechanism includes a motor, which is connected to the rotation connection part 230.

[0045] An embodiment of the second aspect of this utility model provides an air conditioner, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes the air guide vane assembly 200 for air conditioning as described above.

[0046] Furthermore, the air conditioner provided by this utility model includes the air guide plate assembly 200 for air conditioning as described above, and therefore also possesses the advantages described above.

[0047] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
