Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of air conditioners, and in particular to an air guide plate structure of an air conditioner wall unit and an air conditioner wall unit. Background Art

[0002] In household air conditioners, the general method for controlling the up and down swinging airflow is to use an air guide plate to control the up and down airflow. When cooling, the air guide plate can be controlled horizontally; when heating, the air guide plate can be controlled vertically; or it can be swung at any angle to control the up and down swinging of the airflow. When the air conditioner is stopped, the air guide plate must close the air outlet of the air conditioner to prevent dust or other debris from entering the air conditioner and causing pollution. Due to the size of the air outlet of the air conditioner, the width of the air guide plate is usually designed to be narrow. Due to the narrow width of the air guide plate, the air duct formed by the airflow at the air outlet is short and cannot guide the airflow direction well.

[0003] It can be seen from this that it is necessary to invent an air guide plate structure for an air conditioner wall unit that can guide the direction of the air flow at the air outlet and can change the direction of the air flow. Summary of the invention

[0004] The problem of the present invention is that the air guide plate of the air conditioner hanging unit can guide the direction of the air flow at the air outlet.

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides an air guide plate structure for an air conditioner wall unit.

[0006] An air guide plate structure for an air conditioner wall unit includes an air conditioner housing and an air guide plate. The air guide plate covers an air outlet on the air conditioner housing and can move at the air outlet. The air guide plate includes an air guide grille. The air guide grille is provided with ribs in multiple directions, and air flow channels are formed between the ribs.

[0007] When the air guide plate moves to different positions to cover the air outlet, ribs in different directions will guide the airflow to change the air outlet direction.

[0008] Furthermore, the air guide grille includes at least a first grille portion and / or a second grille portion, the first grille portion and the second grille portion respectively include a plurality of ribs, and the ribs included in the first grille portion and the second grille portion extend in different directions in the width direction.

[0009] Furthermore, the first grille portion includes ribs extending in parallel in the width direction, and the airflow blown out of the airflow channels between the ribs flows in parallel, which is convenient for single-direction airflow, making the airflow more concentrated and increasing the cooling or heating effect in the airflow direction in the space.

[0010] Furthermore, the second grille portion includes ribs extending radially from the inner surface to the outer surface in the width direction, and the airflow blown out of the airflow channel between the ribs diffuses and flows, making the airflow more uniform, so that all directions in the space can be cooled or heated uniformly.

[0011] Furthermore, the air guide plate includes an air guide door, and the air guide door is integrally formed with the air guide grille. Only the same air door motor can be used to control the opening and closing of the air guide door and the air flow direction of the air outlet, which is convenient for production and manufacturing and saves costs.

[0012] Furthermore, the air conditioner housing is provided with a panel, a slide groove is provided on the outer side of the panel or between the panel and the housing, and the air guide plate is connected to the slide groove and slides along the slide groove. The slide groove serves as a track for the air guide plate to slide and can support the air guide plate.

[0013] Specifically, the air conditioner housing is provided with a gear shaft, the inner side of the air guide plate is provided with a rack portion, and the gear shaft meshes with the rack portion, so as to drive the sliding of the air guide plate.

[0014] Specifically, a connecting rod is rotatably provided on the air conditioner housing, and the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the air guide plate to drive the air guide plate to slide along the slide groove, thereby driving the air guide plate to slide.

[0015] Furthermore, the air conditioner housing is provided with a slide bar, and the slide bar includes a first slide bar and a second slide bar, the first slide bar is connected to the upper end of the air guide plate and the upper part of the air outlet, the second slide bar is connected to the lower end of the air guide plate and the lower part of the air outlet, and the slide bar is provided with a slide rail for the air guide plate to slide. The slide bar simultaneously drives the air guide plate to move and guides the air guide plate to slide along a curved track. When the two slide bars guide the air guide plate to slide along a curved track, they support the air guide plate and prevent the air guide plate from deviating too far from the air outlet.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the air guide plate structure of an air conditioner hanging unit described in the present invention has the following advantages:

[0017] (1) The present invention provides an air guide plate structure for an air conditioner, wherein the air guide plate includes air guide grilles in different directions, which makes it easier to control the airflow direction at the air outlet and change the air outlet direction;

[0018] (2) The present invention discloses an air guide plate structure for an air conditioner wall mounted unit. The air guide plate is an integrated structure, including an air guide door and an air guide grille, which is easy to manufacture. The same motor controls both the air guide door and the air guide grille, thus saving costs.

[0019] An air conditioner wall mounted unit includes the air guide plate structure of the air conditioner wall mounted unit. The air conditioner wall mounted unit has the same beneficial effects as described above. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

When the second grille portion 222 rotates to the air outlet 14, the air outlet 14 diffuses the air. Further, the air guide plate 2 either reciprocates under the action of the first slide bar 31 and the second slide bar 32 to change the air outlet direction of the air outlet 14 in real time, or rotates to a fixed position to make the air outlet 14 The air outlet 14 only discharges air in the current direction. Furthermore, when the air guide door 21 rotates to the air outlet 14, the distance between the first pin shaft 24 and the first rotating axis 16 is the smallest, and the distance between the second pin shaft 25 and the second rotating axis 15 is the largest. When the air guide grille 22 rotates to cover the air outlet 14, especially when the second grille portion 222 covers the air outlet 14, the distance between the first pin shaft 24 and the first rotating axis 16 is the largest, and the distance between the second pin shaft 25 and the second rotating axis 15 is the smallest.
