[0038] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0039] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the present invention provides a volute assembly, comprising: a volute component 2, on which a slide groove 20 is arranged; a volute tongue component 1, which comprises: a volute tongue body 11, which is located in the volute component 2 and is slidably arranged along the slide groove 20; a slider 12, which is arranged on the volute tongue body 11, and the slider 12 is arranged corresponding to the slide groove 20 for being inserted into the slide groove 20; a clearance fit between the side wall of the slider 12 and the side wall of the slide groove 20 opposite thereto, and a clearance fit between the end face of the slider 12 away from the volute tongue body 11 and the bottom face of the slide groove 20, so as to support the volute tongue component 1.
[0040] The volute assembly of the present invention is provided with a slide groove 20 on the volute component 2, and a slider 12 is provided on the volute tongue body 11 of the volute tongue component 1. The slider 12 is provided corresponding to the slide groove 20, so as to be inserted into the slide groove 20; wherein, the slider 12 and the slide groove 20 are clearance matched, the side wall of the slider 12 and the side wall of the volute tongue 20 opposite thereto are clearance matched, and the end surface of the slider 12 away from the volute tongue body 11 is clearance matched with the bottom surface of the groove of the slide groove 20, so as to support the volute tongue component 1 in two directions, i.e., the width direction of the slide groove perpendicular to the extension direction of the slide groove and the axial direction of the volute tongue component 1. In this way, not only the number of roller assemblies arranged on the volute tongue component 1 can be reduced, but also the support and limit of the volute tongue component 1 can be increased, so as to prevent the roller assembly from shaking, making abnormal sounds or getting stuck due to deformation or extrusion, thereby ensuring the operation stability of the volute tongue component 1, reducing the production quality abnormality of the volute assembly, reducing the production cost, and solving the problem that the volute tongue and its motion mechanism of the air conditioner in the prior art are prone to shaking and getting stuck during the movement.
[0041] Preferably, there are multiple sliders 12, and the multiple sliders 12 are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the slide slot 20. In this way, the snail tongue component 1 can be supported and limited from multiple positions along the movement direction of the snail tongue component 1.
[0042] Preferably, the gap L between the side wall of the slide groove 20 and the side wall of the slider 12 opposite thereto is 0.1 mm to 0.3 mm. More preferably, L is 0.2 mm.
[0043] Preferably, the gap H between the end surface of the slider 12 away from the tongue body 11 and the bottom surface of the slide groove 20 is 0.1 mm to 0.3 mm. More preferably, H is 0.2 mm.
[0044] The clearance fit between the slide groove 20 and the slider 12 can not only ensure smooth relative movement between the volute tongue component 1 and the volute case component 2, but also increase support for the volute tongue component 1 along the width and height directions of the slide groove 20 to prevent it from deforming and sagging, and reduce the number of roller assemblies arranged on the volute tongue component 1.
[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, the volute tongue component 1 also includes a support portion 13 corresponding to the slide groove 20, the support portion 13 is arranged on the volute tongue body 11, and is used to be inserted into the slide groove 20; the support portion 13 and the slider 12 are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the slide groove 20; the support portion 13 abuts against the inner wall of the slide groove 20. In this way, the support portion 13 can support the movement of the volute tongue component 1 and play a role in local limiting support for the shaking and deformation of the volute tongue component 1.
[0046] Preferably, there are a plurality of support portions 13, and the plurality of support portions 13 are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the slide slot 20. In this way, the snail tongue component 1 can be supported and limited from a plurality of positions along the movement direction of the snail tongue component 1.
[0047] like Figure 4 As shown, the support portion 13 includes a support column 131 and an elastic member 132 sleeved on the support column 131 . The outer peripheral surface of the elastic member 132 is cylindrical. The support portion 13 abuts against the side wall of the slide groove 20 through the elastic member 132 .
[0048] The present invention adds a support portion 13 having an elastic member 132 to the volute tongue component 1, thereby eliminating the problems of operation jitter, jamming or FC function (filter cleaning prompt function) failure caused by injection molding deformation of parts or motor vacancy during operation of the volute tongue component 1.
[0049] When the slider 12 and the support part 13 are simultaneously provided on the volute tongue component 1, not only the number of roller assemblies arranged can be reduced, but also the problem of the roller assemblies shaking, making abnormal noises or getting stuck due to deformation or squeezing of injection molded parts can be solved, thereby better supporting the volute tongue component 1.
[0050] Preferably, the elastic member 132 and the slide groove 20 are interference fit.
[0051] Specifically, the elastic member 132 is made of rubber material and has a circular ring structure. The inner side is mounted on the support column 131 of the volute tongue component 1, and the outer side is in contact with the slide groove 20 of the volute case component 2, thereby generating a blocking torque on the relative movement between the volute tongue component 1 and the volute case component 2, so as to achieve the purpose of supporting the volute tongue component 1 and solving the problem of shaking, abnormal noise or jamming of the roller assembly due to deformation or extrusion of the injection molded parts.
[0052] The elastic member 132 includes a first shaft segment and a second shaft segment. The second shaft segment is located at an end of the first shaft segment away from the volute tongue body 11 . The diameter of the first shaft segment is smaller than the width of the slide slot 20 , and the diameter of the second shaft segment is larger than the width of the slide slot 20 .
[0053] Preferably, the elastic member 132 is interference-fitted with the support column 131. The elastic member 132 is interference-fitted on the support column 131 to fix the elastic member 132 relative to the support column 131 so that the elastic member 132 moves along the slide groove 20 together with the volute tongue component 1.
[0054] Preferably, the interference L1 between the outer peripheral surface of the elastic member 132 matched with the slide groove 20 and a corresponding side wall of the slide groove 20 is 0.1 mm to 0.3 mm. More preferably, L1 is 0.2 mm.
[0055] The interference fit between the elastic member 132 and the slide groove 20 can produce a slight frictional obstruction to the movement of the volute tongue component 1, but because the interference is small and the elastic member 132 has elastic deformation, the friction effect it produces is small. The elastic member 132 mainly plays the role of local limiting support for the volute tongue component 1, preventing the volute tongue component 1 from colliding with the volute component 2 due to shaking during movement.
[0056] Preferably, the interference L2 between the minimum diameter of the inner hole of the elastic member 132 and the outer peripheral surface of the support column 131 is 0.1 mm to 0.3 mm. Further preferably, L2 is 0.2 mm. In this way, the fixed connection between the elastic member 132 and the support column 131 can be ensured, so that the elastic member 132 moves with the volute tongue component and better supports the volute tongue component.
[0057] Preferably, a rib 14 is provided on the volute tongue body 11, the rib 14 protrudes from the axial end surface of the volute tongue body 11, the rib 14 is provided corresponding to the slide groove 20, the extension direction of the rib 14 is parallel to the extension direction of the slide groove 20, and the width of the rib 14 is smaller than the width of the corresponding slide groove 20. Part of the rib 14 is used to be inserted into the slide groove 20 to reduce the leakage of the airflow at the gap between the volute tongue component and the volute component 2.
[0058] Specifically, the width of the rib 14 refers to the dimension of the rib 14 perpendicular to the extending direction thereof, and the width of the slide groove 20 refers to the dimension of the slide groove 20 perpendicular to the extending direction thereof.
[0059] Specifically, the slider 12 is arranged on the rib 14; and / or the volute tongue component 1 also includes a support portion 13 abutting against the side wall of the slide groove 20, and the support portion 13 is arranged on the axial end face of the volute tongue body 11 for being inserted into the slide groove 20; a clearance space 140 for avoiding the support portion 13 is provided on the rib 14.
[0060] Preferably, a first roller 111 for contacting the volute component 2 is provided on the volute tongue body 11, and the rotation axis of the first roller 111 is parallel to the rotation axis of the volute tongue body 11; an avoidance groove 141 for avoiding the first roller 111 is provided on the rib 14; and / or a second roller 112 for contacting the volute component 2 is provided on the volute tongue body 11, and the rotation axis of the second roller 112 is perpendicular to the axis of the volute tongue body 11; a mounting portion 142 with a mounting cavity is provided on the rib 14, and the second roller 112 is rotatably mounted on the mounting portion 142, and a part of the wheel body of the second roller 112 is located in the mounting cavity.
[0061] Preferably, there are a plurality of first rollers 111, which are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the slide slot 20; there are a plurality of second rollers 112, which are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the slide slot 20. Accordingly, the avoidance grooves 141 and the mounting portions 142 are arranged at intervals along the ribs 14.
[0062] Preferably, the distance between the maximum outer diameter of the outer circumference of the first roller 111 and the side wall of the slide groove 20 is 0.1 mm to 0.3 mm; the distance between the maximum outer diameter of the outer circumference of the second roller 112 and the bottom surface of the slide groove 20 is 0.1 mm to 0.3 mm.
[0063] Specifically, the volute tongue component 1 and the volute case component 2 rotate relative to each other through the first roller 111 and the second roller 112, so that while a certain movement gap is ensured between the volute tongue component 1 and the volute case component 2, the volute tongue component 1 will not be shifted during movement due to the existence of the movement gap. The axes of the first roller 111 and the second roller 112 are perpendicular to each other, which plays a role in limiting and guiding the movement of the volute tongue component 1, thereby ensuring the relative position between the volute tongue component 1 and the volute case component 2.
[0064] However, after being assembled, there is still a certain gap between the first roller 111 and the second roller 112 and the slide groove 20 of the volute component 2. When the volute tongue component 1 moves, it will shake due to the existence of the gap, and the first roller 111 and the slide groove 20 of the volute component 2 will produce abnormal noise due to collision. The elastic member 132 of the support part 13 of the present invention is used to support the volute tongue component 1 and buffer the shaking of the volute tongue component 1 to reduce the shaking amplitude of the volute tongue component 1, thereby avoiding the collision between the first roller 111 and the second roller 112 and the slide groove 20 and the generation of abnormal noise due to collision.
[0065] Preferably, the volute tongue body 11 and the slider 12 are integrally formed, and the volute tongue body 11 includes a volute tongue main board and connecting plates arranged at both ends of the volute tongue main board, and the sliders 12 are arranged on both connecting plates.
[0066] Preferably, support portions 13 are provided on both connecting plates.
[0067] The two connecting plates are respectively located at two axial ends of the volute tongue main board, and the two connecting plates are parallel to each other. The volute tongue main board is an arc-shaped plate, and the slider 12 and the support portion 13 are protruded from the corresponding connecting plates.
[0068] The two connecting plates are respectively located at two axial ends of the volute tongue main board, and the two connecting plates are parallel to each other. The volute tongue main board is an arc-shaped plate, and the supporting portion 13 protrudes from the corresponding connecting plate.
[0069] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Fig. 9 As shown, the volute component 2 includes a first volute portion 21 and a second volute portion 22 that are arranged opposite to each other, and a slide groove 20 is provided on the first volute portion 21 and the second volute portion 22. The end of the volute tongue body 11 opposite to the first volute portion 21 and the end opposite to the second volute portion 22 are both provided with a slider 12 that cooperates with the corresponding slide groove 20.
[0070] Preferably, the end of the volute tongue body 11 opposite to the first volute portion 21 and the end opposite to the second volute portion 22 are both provided with a support portion 13 matched with the corresponding slide groove 20 .
[0071] Specifically, the volute component 2 includes a first volute portion 21 and a second volute portion 22 which are arranged opposite to each other along the axial direction of the volute tongue component 1. The first volute portion 21 and the second volute portion 22 are respectively located at the axial ends of the volute tongue component 1. The first volute portion 21 and the second volute portion 22 of the volute component 2 are positioned by a pin and fixed by screws. The fan device realizes upward and downward air discharge through the rotation of the volute tongue component 1.
[0072] Specifically, a slide groove 20 is provided on the first volute portion 21 and the second volute portion 22. The slide groove 20 is used for the first roller 111 and the second roller 112 to roll, and is used to cooperate with the slider 12 and the support portion 13 of the volute tongue component 1 to guide, limit, buffer, reduce shock and reduce noise for the movement of the volute tongue component 1.
[0073] The present invention provides a fan device, comprising a volute assembly, wherein the volute assembly is the volute assembly mentioned above.
[0074] like Figures 7 to 9As shown, the fan device of the present invention is mainly used in a vertical air conditioner in which the volute tongue component 1 needs to move during operation. The volute tongue component 1 with a wind shielding function is rotatably arranged in the fan device, and the volute tongue component 1 is driven to rotate by a motor and a transmission assembly arranged on the outside of the volute tongue component 1. The transmission assembly includes a driving wheel 5 arranged on the output shaft of the motor 4, a part of the ring gear 15 arranged on the volute tongue component 1, and a double gear 6 respectively meshed with the driving wheel 5 and the ring gear 15 to drive the volute tongue component 1 to move, thereby respectively realizing the upward air outlet and downward air outlet functions of the fan device.
[0075] like Figure 7 As shown, the position of the volute tongue component 1 can block the upward movement of the airflow to achieve the downward air outlet function of the fan device. Figure 8 As shown, Figure 7 The volute tongue component 1 is rotated 180° to form a vortex fan, which can block the airflow from moving downward to achieve the upward air outlet function of the fan device.
[0076] Specifically, the fan device further includes a fan blade 3 , which is located inside the volute tongue component 1 so as to provide airflow to the volute tongue component 1 through the rotation of the fan blade 3 .

[0078] Specifically, the air conditioner of the present invention is a vertical air conditioner.
[0079] The volute assembly of the present invention supports and limits the volute tongue component 1 by arranging a slider 12 and a support portion 13 on the volute tongue component 1 that cooperate with the slide groove 20 of the volute component 2, thereby preventing the roller assembly from shaking, making abnormal noises or getting stuck due to deformation or extrusion, thereby ensuring the stability of the operation of the volute tongue component 1, reducing the production quality abnormalities of the volute assembly, and eliminating the problems of operation shaking, jamming or FC function failure caused by injection molding deformation of parts or motor vacancy. In addition, the number of roller assemblies arranged on the volute tongue component 1 can be reduced, reducing its production cost, and solving the problem that the volute tongue and its motion mechanism of the air conditioner in the prior art are prone to shaking and jamming during movement.
[0080] The assembly sequence of the fan device of the present invention is as follows:
