[0057] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0058] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples to implement different structures of the present invention. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present invention, the parts and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present invention. In addition, the present invention can repeat reference numbers and / or letters in different examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity, and does not itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed. In addition, the present invention provides various specific processes and examples of materials, but those of ordinary skill in the art can be aware of the applicability of other processes and / or the use of other materials.

[0059] Hereinafter, the air guide assembly 100 for the air conditioner 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Fig.10 As shown, the air conditioner 200 may include a chassis 101a, and the air guide assembly 100 is suitable for being installed on the chassis 101a.

[0060] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, the wind guide assembly 100 includes a wind guide plate 1 and a sliding mounting seat 2. The wind guide plate 1 includes a plate body 11. A step portion 113 is formed on the plate body 11. The step portion 113 is protruded from the wind guide surface 11a of the plate body 11. The step portion 113 can be formed by protruding from a part of the wind guide surface 11a of the plate body 11. The sliding mounting seat 2 is connected to the plate body 11 along the length direction of the plate body 11 (for example, Figure 1The sliding mounting seat 2 is adapted to be matched with or separated from the chassis 101a, so that the air guide plate 1 can be disassembled and assembled with the chassis 101a by means of a latch through the sliding mounting seat 2, which is beneficial to improving the disassembly and assembly efficiency of the air guide assembly 100 and improving the production efficiency of the air conditioner 200.

[0061] Among them, when the sliding mounting seat 2 and the plate body 11 are slidably matched, the step portion 113 blocks the sliding limit assembly 4, and the step portion 113 partially blocks or completely blocks the sliding limit assembly 4, or the step portion 113 blocks at least part of the sliding limit assembly 4. As a result, it is easy to realize the hidden design of the sliding limit assembly 4, avoid the sliding limit assembly 4 from producing an abrupt feeling, and the user cannot see the sliding limit assembly 4 through the appearance of the wind guide assembly 100, which is conducive to improving the overall sense of the wind guide assembly 100, improving the appearance of the wind guide assembly 100, and at the same time avoiding that when the wind guide assembly 100 guides the airflow, the sliding limit assembly 4 blocks the wind and affects the wind guide effect.

[0062] Therefore, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the air guide assembly 100 for the air conditioner 200 forms a step portion 113 on the plate body 11, so that the step portion 113 can cover the sliding limit assembly 4 between the sliding mounting seat 2 and the plate body 11, which is convenient for realizing the hidden design of the sliding limit assembly 4, avoiding the abrupt feeling of the sliding limit assembly 4, and helping to enhance the overall sense of the air guide assembly 100, and ensuring the wind guiding effect of the air guide assembly 100, avoiding the negative effects such as wind blocking.

[0063] Alternatively, if Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the wind guiding surface of the sliding mounting seat 2 and the wind guiding surface of the step portion 113 can be arranged flush, which is conducive to realizing the hidden design of the sliding mounting seat 2, making it difficult for users to directly distinguish the sliding mounting seat 2 from the appearance of the wind guide assembly 100, avoiding the sliding mounting seat 2 from producing an abrupt feeling, and at the same time realizing smooth wind guiding of the sliding mounting seat 2 and the step portion 113, facilitating the realization of the expected wind guiding effect of the wind guide assembly 100.

[0064] For example, Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the sliding mounting seat 2 includes a sliding plate 21, and the sliding plate 21 is slidably matched with the plate body 11 through the sliding limit assembly 4, so that the sliding plate 21 can slide relative to the plate body 11, the sliding plate 21 has a first wind guiding surface 21a, and the step portion 113 has a second wind guiding surface 113a, and the second wind guiding surface 113a is flush with the first wind guiding surface 21a, then the second wind guiding surface 113a and the first wind guiding surface 21a are located on the same plane or the same curved surface, which is convenient for realizing a smooth and smooth connection between the second wind guiding surface 113a and the first wind guiding surface 21a, thereby realizing smooth wind guiding of the step portion 113, avoiding the sliding plate 21 blocking the wind and affecting the wind guiding effect of the wind guide assembly 100, and at the same time facilitating the step portion 113 to completely cover the sliding limit assembly 4, which is conducive to realizing the hidden design of the sliding plate 21, making it difficult for users to directly distinguish the sliding plate 21 from the appearance of the wind guide assembly 100, avoiding the sliding plate 21 from producing an abrupt feeling.

[0065] like Figure 3 As shown, the sliding mounting seat 2 also includes a connecting shaft 22, and the connecting shaft 22 is arranged on the sliding plate 21. The sliding plate 21 slides relative to the plate body 11 so that the connecting shaft 22 is suitable for cooperating with or separating from the chassis 101a. The air guide plate 1 can be disassembled and assembled with the chassis 101a by means of the sliding mounting seat 2, which is beneficial to further improve the disassembly and assembly efficiency of the air guide assembly 100.

[0066] For example, in Fig.10 and Fig.12 In the example, the chassis 101a may have a plate driving device 1011, and the air guide assembly 100 is suitable for being connected to the plate driving device 1011 so as to be driven to rotate by the plate driving device 1011. The sliding plate 21 slides relative to the plate body 11, so that the connecting shaft 22 can move between positions suitable for cooperating with and separating from the plate driving device 1011. Therefore, when installing the air guide assembly 100, the sliding plate 21 can be slid to drive the connecting shaft 22 to move to cooperate with the plate driving device 1011 to realize the rotation of the air guide assembly 100. When disassembling the air guide assembly 100, the sliding plate 21 can be slid to drive the connecting shaft 22 to move to separate from the plate driving device 1011, so as to facilitate the detachment of the sliding mounting seat 2 from the chassis 101a.

[0067] In some embodiments, Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the step portion 113 includes a first step sub-portion 1131 and a second step sub-portion 1132, and the first step sub-portion 1131 and the second step sub-portion 1132 are arranged in sequence along the wind guiding direction of the wind guide assembly 100, and the sliding plate 21 is located between the first step sub-portion 1131 and the second step sub-portion 1132, then the first step sub-portion 1131 is located on the upstream side of the second step sub-portion 1132, and when the wind guide assembly 100 guides the airflow, the airflow flows through the first step sub-portion 1131, the sliding plate 21 and the second step sub-portion 1132 in sequence, and the air guiding surface of the first step sub-portion 1131, the first air guiding surface 21a of the sliding plate 21 and the air guiding surface of the second step sub-portion 1132 are arranged flush. Therefore, by setting the step portion 113 to include a first step sub-portion 1131 and a second step sub-portion 1132, it is convenient to ensure that the step portion 113 will not interfere with the movement of the sliding plate 21. At the same time, since the first step sub-portion 1131 and the second step sub-portion 1132 are respectively located on both sides of the sliding plate 21 in the width direction of the plate body 11, it is beneficial to ensure that the step portion 113 completely covers the sliding limit assembly 4.

[0068] Among them, the wind guiding surface of the first step sub-portion 1131, the first wind guiding surface 21a of the sliding plate 21 and the wind guiding surface of the second step sub-portion 1132 are all formed as arc surfaces, and the wind guiding surface of the first step sub-portion 1131, the first wind guiding surface 21a of the sliding plate 21 and the wind guiding surface of the second step sub-portion 1132 are located on the same arc surface.

[0069] like Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, along the wind guiding direction of the wind guide assembly 100, the thickness of the first step sub-portion 1131 gradually increases, and the thickness of the second step sub-portion 1132 gradually decreases, so that the thickness of the upstream and downstream ends of the step portion 113 is smaller, so as to avoid the plate body 11 being blocked by the wind due to the larger thickness at the upstream and downstream ends, and the step portion 113 has a larger thickness in the middle to better match the sliding plate 21, so that the second wind guide surface 113a is flush with the first wind guide surface 21a, thereby ensuring the wind guiding effect of the step portion 113.

[0070] It can be understood that the gap between the first step sub-portion 1131 and the sliding plate 21, and the gap between the second step sub-portion 1132 and the sliding plate 21 can be specifically set according to actual applications to ensure that the sliding plate 21 slides smoothly relative to the plate body 11 while ensuring that the step portion 113 completely blocks the sliding limit assembly 4.

[0071] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the sliding mounting seat 2 is located at one end of the length of the plate body 11 (for example, Figure 1 When the connecting shaft 22 cooperates with the chassis 101a, the end of the sliding plate 21 close to the center of the plate body 11 (for example, Figure 1 The right end of the sliding plate 21 is flush with the first step sub-portion 1131 and the second step sub-portion 1132 respectively, then the above end surface of the sliding plate 21 and the corresponding end surface of the first step sub-portion 1131 and the corresponding end surface of the second step sub-portion 1132 are all located in the same plane (such as Figure 3 and Fig.10 As shown in the figure, or on the same curved surface, a smooth connection is achieved between the end surface of the sliding plate 21 and the end surface of the step portion 113, so that in the air guiding direction of the air guide assembly 100, the above-mentioned one end of the sliding plate 21 can be completely blocked by the step portion 113, avoiding the wind blocking due to the end of the sliding plate 21 extending out of the step portion 113 when the air guide assembly 100 is installed on the air conditioner 200, thereby ensuring the air guiding effect of the air guide assembly 100.

[0072] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, an operating portion 211 is formed on the sliding plate 21, and the operating portion 211 is protruded from or recessed in the first wind guide surface 21a. The user can directly operate the operating portion 211 by hand to realize the sliding of the sliding plate 21 relative to the plate body 11, and realize the cooperation and separation of the connecting shaft 22 and the chassis 101a, thereby realizing the disassembly and assembly of the wind guide assembly 100. Moreover, during the disassembly and assembly of the wind guide assembly 100, the user does not need to use other tools, and the operation is convenient.

[0073] The operating portion 211 may be a convex block (such as Figure 3 As shown) or grooves, both are convenient for users to operate directly with their hands.

[0074] Optionally, the sliding plate 21 may have an opening mark, which is disposed adjacent to the operating portion 211 , so that the user can understand how to operate the operating portion 211 through the opening mark to achieve disassembly of the air guide assembly 100 .

[0075] In some embodiments, Figure 5 and Figure 8As shown, the sliding limit assembly 4 includes a sliding groove 41, a sliding rail 42 and a clamping protrusion 43. The sliding groove 41 is formed on one of the plate body 11 and the sliding plate 21, and the sliding rail 42 is formed on the other of the plate body 11 and the sliding plate 21, and the sliding rail 42 is slidably matched with the sliding groove 41 to realize the movement of the sliding mounting seat 2 relative to the plate body 11, and the clamping protrusion 43 is arranged on the plate body 11 or the sliding plate 21. When the connecting shaft 22 cooperates with the chassis 101a, the clamping protrusion 43 stops the connecting shaft 22 from separating from the chassis 101a. When the connecting shaft 22 is located at a position suitable for cooperating with the chassis 101a, the clamping protrusion 43 can limit the movement of the connecting shaft 22 toward the position separated from the chassis 101a, so that the connecting shaft 22 is stably maintained in the position cooperating with the chassis 101a, thereby ensuring the installation reliability of the sliding mounting seat 2, preventing the sliding mounting seat 2 from being easily separated from the chassis 101a, and realizing the reliable installation of the air guide assembly 100.

[0076] exist Figure 8 In the example, a slide groove 41 is formed on the sliding plate 21, and there are two slide grooves 41, and the two slide grooves 41 are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the plate body 11, and the open side of each slide groove 41 is arranged to face away from the other slide groove 41, and the open sides of the two slide grooves 41 are arranged to face away from each other; a slide rail 42 is formed on the plate body 11, and there are two slide rails 42, and the two slide rails 42 are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the plate body 11, and the length of the slide rail 42 is greater than the length of the slide groove 41, so that the sliding plate 21 has a certain sliding range, and at the same time, it is avoided that the slide groove 41 on the sliding plate 21 is too long, which causes the plate body 11 to need to be provided with sufficient avoidance space, which is conducive to simplifying the structure of the plate body 11. Among them, the clamping protrusion 43 is arranged on the sliding plate 21, and when the connecting shaft 22 is matched with the chassis 101a, the clamping protrusion 43 stops at the clamping hook 1111 on the plate body 11. In this way, the matching reliability of the sliding limit assembly 4 is guaranteed, so that the sliding plate 21 slides stably.

[0077] For example, the cross section of the slide groove 41 can be roughly formed into a U shape, so that the slide groove 41 can play a certain limiting role on the sliding plate 21, and the protrusion 43 is arranged at the edge of the slide groove 41, and the protrusion 43 protrudes from the edge of the slide groove 41. The plate body 11 includes a first plate body 111, and the hook 1111 is arranged on the leeward side of the first plate body 111, so as to avoid the hook 1111 blocking the wind when the air guide assembly 100 guides the airflow and affecting the air guide effect; a through hole 1110 is formed on the first plate body 111, and the edges on both sides of the through hole 1110 can form the slide rails 42 respectively, and one end of the length of the through hole 1110 is open to facilitate the smooth matching of the sliding plate 21 on the slide rails 42, so as to install the sliding mounting seat 2 on the first plate body 111, and the sliding mounting seat 2 can also be detached from the first plate body 111 through the through hole 1110.

[0078] In some embodiments, Figure 5As shown, the plate body 11 includes a first plate body 111 and a second plate body 112, the first plate body 111 is slidably matched with the sliding mounting seat 2, the second plate body 112 is buckled and connected to the leeward side of the first plate body 111, and the second plate body 112 and the first plate body 111 define a receiving space 110, and the hook 1111 is located in the receiving space 110, which can prevent the hook 1111 from being exposed outside the plate body 11, so as to further enhance the overall sense of the air guide assembly 100, and at the same time, it is conducive to enriching the structural diversity of the plate body 11, so that the air guide assembly 100 can better meet the actual differentiated needs. Among them, the connection method between the second plate body 112 and the first plate body 111 is not specifically limited here.

[0079] In some embodiments, Figure 8 As shown, a through opening 1110 is formed at one end of the length of the first plate body 111, and the through opening 1110 penetrates the first plate body 111 along the thickness direction of the first plate body 111. In the width direction of the plate body 11, the opposite side edges of the through opening 1110 are respectively formed as slide rails 42, so that the slide rails 42 have a simple structure and are easy to process, and at the same time, it is convenient to quickly install the sliding plate 21 on the first plate body 111.

[0080] In some embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, a fixed mounting seat 12 is provided on the second plate body 112, and the fixed mounting seat 12 can be set corresponding to the sliding mounting seat 2, and when the connecting shaft 22 cooperates with the chassis 101a, the connecting shaft 22 is passed through the fixed mounting seat 12, so that when the air guide assembly 100 is installed on the air conditioner 200, the sliding mounting seat 2 and the fixed mounting seat 12 can withstand a certain force, thereby increasing the bearing capacity of the air guide assembly 100 at the sliding mounting seat 2 and improving the installation reliability of the air guide assembly 100; at this time, the sliding mounting seat 2 stops between the fixed mounting seat 12 and the hook 1111 to limit the movement of the sliding mounting seat 2 relative to the plate body 11, then the hook 1111 stops the sliding mounting seat 2 from separating from the chassis 101a, and the fixed mounting seat 12 stops the sliding mounting seat 2 from separating from the plate body 11, thereby ensuring that the sliding mounting seat 2 is firmly installed and realizing the reliable installation of the air guide assembly 100.

[0081] For example, in Figure 8 In the example, a through opening 1110 is formed on the first plate body 111, and the opposite side edges of the through opening 1110 can respectively form sliding rails 42. One end of the through opening 1110 is open to facilitate the sliding plate 21 to smoothly fit on the sliding rail 42, so as to install the sliding mounting seat 2 on the first plate body 111. Similarly, the sliding mounting seat 2 can also be detached from the first plate body 111 through the through opening 1110, and the fixed mounting seat 12 stops at the open side of the through opening 1110 on the first plate body 111 to prevent the sliding mounting seat 2 from detaching from the first plate body 111 through the through opening 1110.

[0082] In some embodiments, Fig.10 and Fig.12 As shown, the chassis 101a is provided with a plate driving device 1011. When the sliding mounting seat 2 cooperates with the chassis 101a, the sliding mounting seat 2 is connected to the plate driving device 1011 to be driven to rotate by the plate driving device 1011, so as to drive the air guide plate 1 to rotate. Then, during the rotation process, the air guide plate 1 can change the air outlet direction at the air outlet 200a of the air conditioner 200. For example, the plate driving device 1011 can drive the air guide assembly 100 to rotate up and down, so as to realize the up and down sweeping of the air conditioner 200.

[0083] For example, in Figure 7 and Fig.13 In the example, the plate body 11 is also fixed with a plate body mounting seat 13, and the plate body mounting seat 13 and the sliding mounting seat 2 are spaced apart along the length direction of the plate body 11, for example, the sliding mounting seat 2 is located at one end of the length of the plate body 11, and the plate body mounting seat 13 is located at the other end of the length of the plate body 11; the plate body mounting seat 13 is suitable for pivoting with the chassis 101a, so as to ensure smooth rotation of the air guide assembly 100 during the process of the plate body driving device 1011 driving the air guide assembly 100 to rotate. It can be understood that the plate body mounting seat 13 is suitable for being detachably connected to the chassis 101a. For example, one of the plate body mounting seat 13 and the chassis 101a has a pivot shaft, and the other of the plate body mounting seat 13 and the chassis 101a is formed with a pivot hole, and the pivot shaft is pivotally matched with the pivot hole. At this time, the plate body mounting seat 13 can be matched with the shaft hole of the chassis 101a, which is convenient for the rapid disassembly and assembly of the plate body mounting seat 13 and the chassis 101a.

[0084] Thus, when installing the air guide plate 1, the plate body mounting seat 13 can be matched with the chassis 101a first, and then the sliding mounting seat 2 can be slid to match with the chassis 101a, thereby realizing the installation of the air guide plate 1; when removing the air guide plate 1, the sliding mounting seat 2 can be slid to separate from the chassis 101a first, and then the plate body mounting seat 13 can be removed from the chassis 101a by adjusting the air guide plate 1. Thus, the installation reliability of the air guide assembly 100 is ensured, the rapid disassembly and assembly of the air guide assembly 100 is realized, and the subsequent maintenance and cleaning of the air guide assembly 100 are convenient, and after-sales repair is also convenient.

[0085] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Fig. 9As shown, the air guide assembly 100 further includes a limit mounting seat 3, which is disposed on the plate body 11, and the limit mounting seat 3 is spaced between the plate body mounting seat 13 and the sliding mounting seat 2, and the limit mounting seat 3 is suitable for limiting the movement of the plate body 11 in the length direction of the plate body 11 with the chassis 101a. Therefore, when the air guide assembly 100 is installed on the air conditioner 200, the limit mounting seat 3 is limitedly matched with the chassis 101a, so that the chassis 101a can at least limit the movement of the plate body 11 in the length direction, which is convenient for ensuring that the gap between the two sides of the length of the plate body 11 and the chassis 101a is relatively uniform, which is conducive to improving the installation accuracy of the air guide assembly 100 and ensuring the smoothness of the rotation of the air guide assembly 100.

[0086] For example, in Fig.12 In the example, when installing the air guide assembly, the plate body mounting seat 13 can be matched with the chassis 101a first, and then the plate body 11 can be adjusted so that the chassis 101a limits the movement of the plate body 11 in the length direction of the plate body 11 through the limit mounting seat 3, and then the sliding mounting seat 2 is slid to make the sliding mounting seat 2 slide to match with the chassis 101a, so as to achieve the installation of the air guide assembly 100, so that the air guide assembly 100 is firmly installed; when disassembling the air guide assembly 100, the sliding mounting seat 2 can be slid to separate from the chassis 101a first, and then the plate body 11 can be adjusted so that the limit mounting seat 3 is disengaged from the chassis 101a, and the plate body mounting seat 13 is detached from the chassis 101a, so as to achieve the disassembly of the air guide assembly 100. In this way, the rapid disassembly and assembly of the air guide assembly 100 is achieved, the production efficiency is improved, and the after-sales maintenance and cleaning are convenient.

[0087] In some embodiments, the position-limiting mounting seat 3 includes a position-limiting member 31, which is fixed on the plate 11, and a position-limiting groove 30 is formed on the position-limiting member 31. The chassis 101a is provided with a position-limiting protrusion 1013, which is suitable for extending into the position-limiting groove 30 to limit the movement of the plate 11 in the length direction of the plate 11. Therefore, the cooperation between the position-limiting mounting seat 3 and the chassis 101a is simple and easy to implement. For example, in Fig.14 In the example, the plate body 11 extends in the left-right direction, and the two side walls of the limiting groove 30 in the left-right direction are respectively the left side wall and the right side wall. When the limiting protrusion 1013 is engaged in the limiting groove 30, the limiting protrusion 1013 is suitable for cooperating with the left side wall of the limiting groove 30 to limit the plate body 11 from moving to the left, and the limiting protrusion 1013 is suitable for cooperating with the right side wall of the limiting groove 30 to limit the plate body 11 from moving to the right.

[0088] In some embodiments, Figure 4 and Fig.14As shown, the position-limiting mounting seat 3 further includes a sliding member 32, the sliding member 32 includes a sliding seat 321 and a rotating shaft 322 disposed on the sliding seat 321, and the sliding seat 321 is disposed on one side of the position-limiting member 31 along the length direction of the plate body 11 (for example, Figure 4 ), and the slide 321 is slidably matched with the plate body 11 along the length direction of the plate body 11, the rotating shaft 322 can move relative to the plate body 11 along the length direction of the plate body 11, so that the rotating shaft 322 moves between a position suitable for pivoting and disengaging with the limiting protrusion 1013. Therefore, when installing the air guide assembly 100, the sliding slide 321 drives the rotating shaft 322 to pivotally match with the limiting protrusion 1013, ensuring that the air guide assembly 100 rotates smoothly, and at the same time, the chassis 101a can support the plate body 11 through the sliding member 32, further ensuring that the air guide plate 1 is reliably installed.

[0089] Therefore, when installing the air guide component 100, the plate body mounting seat 13 can be matched with the chassis 101a first, and then the plate body 11 can be adjusted so that the limiting protrusion 1013 is limited and matched with the limiting groove 30, and then the sliding mounting seat 2 is slid to make the sliding mounting seat 2 slide to match with the chassis 101a, and finally the sliding member 32 is installed on the plate body 11 and the sliding slide seat 321, so that the rotating shaft 322 is pivotally matched with the limiting protrusion 1013, thereby realizing the installation of the air guide component 100. At this time, the chassis 101a can be respectively The body mounting seat 13, the sliding mounting seat 2 and the limiting mounting seat 3 apply force to the plate body 11 to ensure that the plate body 11 is installed stably and reliably; when disassembling the air guide assembly 100, the sliding seat 321 can be slid first to make the rotating shaft 322 disengage from the limiting protrusion 1013, and then the sliding mounting seat 2 can be slid to separate from the chassis 101a, and then the plate body 11 can be appropriately adjusted to make the limiting groove 30 disengage from the limiting protrusion 1013, and the plate body mounting seat 13 can be removed from the chassis 101a to realize the disassembly of the air guide assembly 100.

[0090] When the rotating shaft 322 is pivotally matched with the limiting protrusion 1013, the rotating shaft 322 is inserted through the limiting member 31 to extend into the limiting groove 30, so that the limiting mounting seat 3 forms an integral body, which is conducive to improving the bearing capacity of the limiting mounting seat 3. For example, a through hole can be formed on the limiting member 31, and the through hole passes through the wall surface of the limiting groove 30. When the rotating shaft 322 is pivotally matched with the limiting protrusion 1013, the rotating shaft 322 is inserted through the through hole and extends into the limiting groove 30, so that there is an interaction force between the sliding member 32 and the limiting member 31, thereby improving the bearing capacity of the limiting mounting seat 3 and ensuring the reliable use of the limiting mounting seat 3. When the rotating shaft 322 is disengaged from the limiting protrusion 1013, the rotating shaft 322 can be moved out of the through hole.

[0091] In some embodiments, Figure 7As shown, the air guide assembly 100 also includes a louver 6 and a driving rod 7. There are multiple louvers 6, and the multiple louvers 6 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the plate body 11. Each louver 6 is rotatably arranged on the plate body 11. The driving rod 7 is located between the plate body mounting seat 13 and the sliding mounting seat 2, and the driving rod 7 is connected to the multiple louvers 6 to drive the multiple louvers 6 to rotate. A connecting buckle 8 is provided at one end of the driving rod 7 close to the plate body mounting seat 13. The connecting buckle 8 is slidably matched with the plate body 11, and the connecting buckle 8 is movably connected to the driving rod 7. The connecting buckle 8 is suitable for being driven to move by the louver driving device 1012 on the chassis 101a. Therefore, when the air guide assembly 100 is installed on the air conditioner 200, the louver driving device 1012 can drive the connecting buckle 8 to move relative to the plate body 11, so as to drive the multiple louvers 6 to rotate through the driving rod 7 to achieve air guiding, thereby enriching the air guiding effect of the air guide assembly 100. For example, the rotation of multiple louvers 6 can realize the left and right wind sweeping of the air conditioner 200; moreover, the plate driving device 1011 and the louver driving device 1012 on the chassis 101a can be respectively located on both sides of the length of the air guide assembly 100, which is convenient for the reasonable layout of the air conditioner 200.

[0092] For example, Fig.13 As shown, an opening 81 is formed on one of the driving rod 7 and the connecting buckle 8, and a sliding column 71 is provided on the other of the driving rod 7 and the connecting buckle 8. The sliding column 71 and the opening 81 slide together along the width direction of the plate body 11, and the two side walls of the opening 81 in the length direction of the plate body 11 can both stop against the sliding column 71, so that when the connecting buckle 8 moves along the length direction of the plate body 11, it can drive the driving rod 7 to move along the length direction of the plate body 11, thereby realizing the rotation of multiple shutters 6.

[0093] exist Fig.13 In the example, the opening 81 is formed on the connecting buckle 8, the sliding column 71 is arranged on the driving rod 7, the axis of the sliding column 71 can be perpendicular to the length direction of the plate body 11, and the free end of the sliding column 71 can form a limiting portion. In the length direction of the plate body 11, the width of the limiting portion is greater than the width of the opening 81 to prevent the sliding column 71 from being easily disengaged from the opening 81.

[0094] In some embodiments, Fig.13As shown, a support shaft 1014 is provided on the chassis 101a, and the support shaft 1014 is suitable for being passed through the plate body mounting seat 13 to pivotally cooperate with the plate body mounting seat 13, so that an axis hole is formed between the support shaft 1014 and the plate body mounting seat 13; the connecting buckle 8 is suitable for being connected with the driving shaft 1012a of the shutter driving device 1012, and the driving shaft 1012a is passed through the support shaft 1014, and the driving shaft 1012a is arranged parallel to the support shaft 1014, and the driving shaft 1012a is movable along the axial direction of the support shaft 1014, so the support shaft 1014 can be formed into a hollow structure, and the central axis of the driving shaft 1012a is parallel to the central axis of the support shaft 1014, and the driving shaft 1012a is sleeved in the support shaft 1014 and movable relative to the support shaft 1014. Therefore, the driving shaft 1012a drives the driving rod 7 to move through the connecting buckle 8, which will not affect the pivotal cooperation between the plate mounting seat 13 and the support shaft 1014. In other words, the rotation of the louver 6 will not affect the rotation of the air guide plate 1, thereby ensuring that the air guide assembly 100 has a rich air guide effect.

[0095] Optionally, the connecting buckle 8 includes a first buckle and a second buckle, the first buckle is slidably matched with the plate body 11, the second buckle is arranged on the first buckle, one end of the second buckle is pivotally connected to the first buckle, and the other end of the second buckle is snap-connected with the first buckle, so that a connecting hole is defined between the second buckle and the second buckle, and the driving shaft 1012a is suitable for passing through the connecting hole to achieve the connection between the connecting buckle 8 and the driving shaft 1012a. When assembling the connecting buckle 8 and the driving shaft 1012a, the above-mentioned other end of the second buckle can be detached from the first buckle, the driving shaft 1012a is passed through the first buckle, and then the above-mentioned other end of the second buckle is connected to the first buckle, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the connecting buckle 8 and the driving shaft 1012a.
