[0055] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0056] Example 1
[0057] like Figures 1 to 12 As shown, an air guide structure provided by the present embodiment is a frame body arranged below the air outlet grille 1 along the outflow direction of the air flow, and an annular flow channel is formed in the frame body; a plurality of guide vanes 4 are radially arranged in the annular flow channel, and a lever 43 is arranged on one end of the guide vane 4 close to the center of the annular flow channel, and an external force drives the lever 43 to drive the guide vane 4 to rotate with the radial direction of the guide vane 4 as the rotation center; wherein, the plurality of guide vanes 4 have a first state of closing the annular flow channel and a second state of opening the annular flow channel at a preset rotation angle.
[0058] The air guiding structure in this embodiment is used on a circulation fan. A fan is provided at the lower air inlet of the circulation fan to introduce external air flow into the air duct and discharge it to the outside through the air outlet grid in this embodiment. The frame body in this embodiment is part of the air duct of the entire circulation fan, and an annular flow channel is formed therein to facilitate the closing of the air duct by the guide vanes.
[0059] In the axial direction of the circulation fan, the air guiding structure in this embodiment realizes the opening and closing of the air duct in the axial direction. Specifically, when the air duct in the axial direction needs to be opened, as Figure 3 shown, under the drive of an external force, the guide vane 4 rotates by a certain angle. Here, the angle is the included angle between the blade surface of the guide vane and the fluid flow direction. When the above included angle is not 90 degrees, the air duct is in an open state. When it is 90 degrees, several guide vanes are butted together to realize the closing of the annular flow channel.
[0060] Therefore, in this embodiment, guide vanes are provided below the air outlet grille. The guide vanes can rotate in the annular air duct. When the fan is not working, the guide vanes rotate, and several guide vanes are spliced together to realize the closing of the annular air duct, thereby preventing dust from entering the air duct through the air outlet of the air outlet grille and affecting the use of the fan and the like.
[0061] The frame body in this embodiment includes two parts, a first frame body 2 and a second frame body 3 that are butted against each other, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, which shows the specific structures of the first frame body 2 and the second frame body 3:
[0062] As Figure 4 shown, the first frame body 2 has an annular first frame edge 21. An installation groove is provided at the upper end of the first frame edge 21, and the air outlet grille is installed in the installation groove on the first frame edge 21. A first central axis 22 is provided at the center of the first frame edge 21. A number of spokes are bridged between the circumferential surface of the first central axis 22 and the inner side surface of the first frame edge 21. In this embodiment, the number of spokes is four. As a variation, other numbers of spokes are also possible as long as they can support and fix the first central axis 22.
[0063] As Figure 5 shown, the second frame body 3 has an annular second frame edge 31. An installation hole is machined at the upper end of the second frame edge 31 and is fitted and installed with the lower end surface of the first frame edge 21. A second central axis 32 is provided at the center of the second frame edge 31; a number of spokes are bridged between the circumferential surface of the second central axis 32 and the inner side surface of the second frame edge 31. In this embodiment, the number of spokes is four. As a variation, other numbers of spokes are also possible as long as they can support and fix the second central axis 32.
[0064] Therefore, in this embodiment, an annular flow channel is formed between the inner side surface of the first frame 21 and the peripheral surface of the first central axis 22, and between the inner side surface of the second frame 31 and the peripheral surface of the second central axis 32 for the airflow from the fan to pass through.
[0065] Further, in this embodiment, a plurality of lateral air outlets 312 are provided on the peripheral surface of the second frame 31 to increase the air outlet angle of the fan.
[0066] As Figure 6 shown, the specific structure of the guide vane 4 is shown. In this embodiment, the guide vane 4 is configured as a sector ring structure. First rotation parts 41 and second rotation parts 42 are respectively arranged on two opposite arc edges of the guide vane 4, and both the first rotation part 41 and the second rotation part 42 are shaft structures. The sector ring structure in this embodiment is simple to process, and the sector ring structures can be assembled into a circular ring structure to better fit the annular flow channel and block the annular flow channel, thereby improving the sealing performance of the annular flow channel and the dust prevention effect.
[0067] The guide vane 4 in this embodiment is installed on the first frame body 2 and the second frame body 3. Specifically, as Figure 4 shown, a plurality of first rotation grooves 221 are arranged along the circumferential direction of the first central axis 22. The second rotation part 42 is rotatably arranged on the first rotation groove 221. While the first rotation groove 221 realizes the support of the second rotation part 42, the second rotation part 42 can rotate in the first rotation groove 221, with a simple structure and convenient installation of the guide vane.
[0068] Similarly, as Figure 5 shown, a plurality of second rotation grooves 311 are arranged along the circumferential direction of the second frame 31. The first rotation part 41 is rotatably arranged on the second rotation groove 311. The second rotation groove 311 can also realize the support of the first rotation part 41, with a simple structure and convenient installation of the guide vane.
[0069] Further, in this embodiment, in the airflow outflow direction, the first rotation groove 221 is arranged below the second rotation groove 311. The first rotation groove 221 is arranged lower than the second rotation groove, resulting in one end of the guide vane installed on the first rotation groove 221 and the second rotation groove tilting towards the second frame body 3. When the guide vane 4 is in the closed state, the airflow can be better guided to the lateral air outlet, increasing the air volume of the lateral air outlet and reducing the noise generated by the collision of the airflow with the duct wall at the same time.
[0070] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the driving of the guide vane, a driving assembly 5 is further included, as Figure 6As shown, a lever 43 is provided at the axial end of the second rotating part 42 away from the body of the guide vane 4, and the driving assembly 5 drives the lever 43, and the guide vane 4 is driven by the driving assembly 5. The lever 43 in this embodiment includes: a connecting portion 431 provided on the second rotating part 42, the connecting portion 431 is a long strip plate structure integrally formed at the axial end of the second rotating part 42; and a toggle portion 432 vertically provided on the connecting portion 431, the toggle portion 432 is a common cylindrical rod structure, and the driving assembly 5 drives the toggle portion 432.
[0071] In this embodiment, the first central axis 22 is constructed as a hollow structure. The driving assembly 5 is arranged in the first central axis 22 . The first central axis 22 cover is arranged on the driving assembly 5 , which can prevent the driving assembly 5 from dust.
[0072] like Figure 8 As shown, the driving assembly 5 includes: a driving motor 51, which is arranged in the first central axis 22, and a gear 52 is arranged on the driving motor 51. The gear 52 is installed on the motor shaft of the driving motor 51 in an interference fit or keyed manner. A turntable 53 is arranged between the first central axis 22 and the second central axis 32. A plurality of shifting teeth 531 are processed on the circumference of the turntable 53. There is a gap between two adjacent shifting teeth, and the gap space forms a shifting groove 535. The shifting part 432 is clamped in the shifting groove 535. When the turntable 53 rotates, the shifting rod 43 clamped in the shifting groove 535 is driven to rotate. Further, the middle position of the turntable is processed into a half-moon notch, and a tooth part 532 meshing with the gear 52 is processed on the inner side of the notch. The gear 52 is driven to rotate by the driving motor 51, and the gear 52 drives the turntable 53 to rotate through the tooth part 532. The turntable 53 drives the guide vane 4 to rotate through the shifting teeth 531, thereby realizing the adjustment of the rotation angle of the guide vane 4.
[0073] On the basis of the above embodiment, as a further limitation, a limit plate 536 is provided on the side of the toggle slot 535 close to the second frame body, and the limit plate 536 is connected between the two toggle teeth 531. When the toggle part 432 rotates in the toggle slot 535, the limit plate 536 can constrain the movement stroke of the toggle part 432 to limit the toggle part 432 from disengaging from the toggle slot 535.
[0074] like Figure 10As shown, the driving assembly 5 further includes a connecting member 54 disposed between the driving motor 51 and the turntable 53. A rotating shaft 541 protrudes from the connecting member 54. A first shaft hole 533 and a second shaft hole 322 for the rotating shaft 541 to pass through are respectively provided on the turntable 53 and the second central shaft 32. First, the driving motor 51 is locked to the connecting member 54 by screws, and a through hole for the motor shaft to pass through is machined on the connecting member 54. The second shaft hole 322 is a blind hole structure, the shaft end of the rotating shaft 541 abuts against the blind hole, the upper end of the first central shaft 22 is open, and when the air outlet grille 1 is installed on the first housing 2, it presses against the driving motor, and then the connecting member 54 is abutted against the second shaft hole 322 of the second central shaft 32, realizing the fixation of the connecting member 54. The turntable 53 is rotatably installed between the upper end faces of the connecting member 54 and the second central shaft 32.
[0075] As Figure 8 and as Figure 10 As shown, a limiting block 542 protrudes from the end face of the connecting member 54 facing the turntable 53. A limiting hole 534 that cooperates with the limiting block 542 is provided on the turntable 53. The limiting hole 534 is an arc hole. When installing the connecting member 54, the limiting block 542 is movably inserted into the limiting hole 534 and can move in the limiting hole 534. When the turntable 53 rotates a certain angle, the limiting block 543 thereon will be blocked by the limiting hole 534 to limit the rotation angle of the turntable 53. Further, by setting the size of the arc hole, the rotation angle range of the turntable 3 can be adjusted.
