Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of air conditioning, and in particular to an air guide component and air conditioning equipment. Background Art

[0002] An air guide plate is provided at the air outlet of the air-conditioning equipment. When the air-conditioning equipment is shut down, the air guide plate closes the air outlet. However, in order to avoid the interference of the air guide plate with the edge of the air outlet during the opening and closing movement, the outline size of the air guide plate is designed to be smaller than the outline size of the air outlet. When the air guide plate closes the air outlet, there is still a certain gap between the outer peripheral edge of the air guide plate and the edge of the air outlet, and the spacing between the corresponding positions of the outer peripheral edge of the air guide plate and the edge of the air outlet is often uneven, resulting in the appearance structure of the air-conditioning equipment being not refined enough, and may even cause the air guide plate to collide with and rub against the edge of the air outlet during the opening and closing movement, affecting the normal movement of the air guide plate and easily causing structural damage to the air guide plate and the frame. Summary of the invention

[0003] One of the purposes of the present invention is to provide an air guide assembly.

[0004] The air guide assembly provided by the present invention comprises a shell frame, an air guide plate, a slider, an elastic member, a first magnetic member and a second magnetic member, the shell frame has an air outlet, the air outlet is oriented in the positive direction of a first direction, and the air guide plate can be installed at the air outlet in an openable and closable manner; the slider can be slidably installed on the shell frame, and the sliding direction of the slider intersects with the opening and closing movement direction of the air guide plate; the elastic member is connected between the slider and the shell frame, the first magnetic member is fixed on the slider, and the second magnetic member is fixed on the air guide plate; when the air guide plate closes the air outlet, under the action of the magnetic attraction of the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member, the end face of the slider facing the air guide plate is fitted and matched with the end face of the air guide plate facing the slider along the first direction, and along the first direction, the positive side wall surface of the air guide plate is flush with the positive side wall surface of the slider; when the air guide plate opens the air outlet, the slider is maintained in the first position under the action of the elastic member, and the first position is spaced apart from the opening and closing movement trajectory of the air guide plate.

[0005] As can be seen from the above, when the air guide plate closes the air outlet, the setting of the slider makes it possible for no gap to be formed on the side of the air guide plate facing the slider, and there will be no uneven gap on the side of the air guide plate facing the slider, which is beneficial to ensuring the simple appearance structure of the air guide assembly; and because the elastic member keeps the slider in the first position when the air guide plate opens the air outlet, when the air guide plate opens and closes to the point where the force between the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member is weak, the slider can be separated from the fit with the air guide plate under the action of the elastic member, which is beneficial to avoiding interference between the slider and the opening and closing movement of the air guide plate, and is beneficial to reducing the friction between the air guide plate and the slider during the opening and closing movement, which is beneficial to ensuring smooth opening and closing movement of the air guide plate.

[0006] The sliding direction of the slider of the present invention intersects with the opening and closing movement direction of the air guide plate, which means that there is an angle between the two directions, rather than that the sliding trajectory of the slider intersects with the opening and closing movement trajectory of the air guide plate.

[0007] A preferred solution is that the sliding direction of the slider is perpendicular to the opening and closing movement direction of the air guide plate.

[0008] Another preferred solution is that the air guide plate is rotatably mounted on the frame via a rotating shaft, the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the air guide plate, the sliding direction of the slider and the axial direction of the rotating shaft are both along a second direction, the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, and the slider and the air guide plate are distributed along the second direction.

[0009] A further solution is that a normal line of an end surface of the slider facing the air guide plate is along the second direction, and a normal line of an end surface of the air guide plate facing the slider is along the second direction.

[0010] A further solution is that the elastic member is a coil spring, the slider has a through hole extending along the second direction, the rotating shaft passes through the through hole from the air guide plate along the second direction and is rotatably connected to the frame, the coil spring is sleeved on the rotating shaft, the coil spring, the slider and the air guide plate are distributed in sequence along the second direction, and along the second direction, one end of the coil spring away from the slider is fixedly connected to the frame, and the other end of the coil spring is fixedly connected to the slider.

[0011] As can be seen from the above, this is conducive to ensuring the stability of the posture of the coil spring, and then when the air guide plate opens the air outlet, the slider can be maintained in the first position more accurately under the action of the coil spring, avoiding the slider from deviating too far from the first position, thereby further avoiding interference between the opening and closing movements of the slider and the air guide plate, and avoiding the situation where the suction force between the first magnetic part and the second magnetic part is insufficient to force the slider to slide toward the air guide plate along the second direction after the air guide plate closes the air outlet, which is conducive to ensuring that the slider runs smoothly according to a preset rule; and it is conducive to ensuring that the corresponding relationship between the position of the slider and the elastic force from the coil spring applied to the slider when the slider is in this position is stable, which is conducive to ensuring that the slider operates accurately and stably according to the preset rule under the action of the elastic force and the magnetic force.

[0012] A further solution is that the hole wall of the through hole is clearance-matched with the rotating shaft.

[0013] A further solution is that the combined structure of the slider, the elastic member, the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member has two groups, the two groups of combined structures are distributed along the second direction, and the two sliders are disposed on both sides of the air guide plate along the second direction.

[0014] Another preferred solution is that the housing frame is provided with a limiting structure, and along the sliding direction of the slider, the limiting structure is located at a side of the first position facing away from the air guide plate, and the limiting structure limits the sliding range of the slider.

[0015] As can be seen from the above, this is further helpful in avoiding the situation where the suction force between the first magnetic part and the second magnetic part is insufficient to force the slider to slide toward the air guide plate along the second direction after the air guide plate closes the air outlet, which is helpful in ensuring that the slider runs smoothly according to the preset rules.

[0016] Another preferred solution is that it also includes a third magnetic member; the third magnetic member is fixed on the slider, the second magnetic member and the third magnetic member are both magnets, the second magnetic member and the third magnetic member repel each other, the third magnetic member is arranged adjacent to the first magnetic member, and along the movement direction of the air guide plate when the air outlet is opened, the third magnetic member is located in front of the first magnetic member; or the third magnetic member is fixed on the air guide plate, the first magnetic member and the third magnetic member are both magnets, the first magnetic member and the third magnetic member repel each other, the third magnetic member is arranged adjacent to the second magnetic member, and along the movement direction of the air guide plate when the air outlet is opened, the third magnetic member is located behind the second magnetic member.

[0017] It can be seen from the above that in the process of the air guide plate opening the air outlet, the air guide plate only needs to move a short stroke, and the slider can slide away from the air guide plate under the action of the two-phase repulsive magnets, thereby avoiding prolonged friction between the air guide plate and the slider, which is further conducive to ensuring that the air guide plate moves smoothly in the process of opening the air outlet; and in the process of the air guide plate closing the air outlet, the air guide plate is subjected to the repulsive force of the two-phase repulsive magnets when it is about to complete the closing of the air outlet, so that the slider will not slide towards the air guide plate prematurely under the action of the two-phase attractive magnetic parts, thereby avoiding prolonged friction between the air guide plate and the slider, which is further conducive to ensuring that the air guide plate moves smoothly in the process of closing the air outlet.

[0018] A second object of the present invention is to provide an air conditioning device.

[0019] The air conditioning equipment provided by the present invention includes the aforementioned air guide assembly. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0023] Air guide assembly and air conditioning equipment embodiment:

[0024] This embodiment of Figures 1 to 3A unified spatial rectangular coordinate system (right-hand system) is used to represent the air guide assembly when the air guide plate 2 closes the air outlet 11 ( Figure 1 The relative position relationship of each feature in the state), wherein the positive direction of the X axis is the positive direction of the first direction, and the positive direction of the X axis is Figure 1 and Figure 2 The direction perpendicular to the outward direction of the drawing plane is the second direction, and since Figure 2 and Figure 3 The air guide plates 2 in the embodiment are all in the state of opening the air outlet 11, so Figure 2 and Figure 3 The positional relationship of the various features of the middle air guide plate 2 does not necessarily match the direction indicated by the rectangular coordinate system shown in the figure.

[0025] The air conditioning device of this embodiment is a wall-mounted air conditioning indoor unit. The air conditioning device of this embodiment includes the air guide assembly of this embodiment. Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The air guide assembly includes a shell frame 1, an air guide plate 2, a slider 3, a coil spring 4 (an example of an elastic member), a motor 5, a first magnet 7 (an example of a first magnetic member), a second magnet 8 (an example of a second magnetic member) and a third magnet 9 (an example of a third magnetic member). The shell frame 1 has an air outlet 11, the opening of the air outlet 11 faces the positive direction of the X-axis, the outline of the air outlet 11 is rectangular, the length direction of the outline of the air outlet 11 is along the Y-axis direction, and the width direction of the outline of the air outlet 11 is along the Z-axis direction.

[0026] Alternatively, in other embodiments of the present invention, the air-conditioning device may also be the entire air-conditioning system including the air-conditioning indoor unit, or the air-conditioning device may also be other types of air-conditioning.

[0027] The air guide plate 2 is rotatably mounted on the housing frame 1 via a rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the air guide plate 2 . The axis of the rotating shaft is along the Y-axis direction. The air guide plate 2 is located at the air outlet 11 .

[0028] There are two rotating shafts, which are the first shaft 6 and the second shaft. The first shaft 6 extends from the negative end of the Y-axis of the air guide plate 2 to the negative direction of the Y-axis, and the second shaft extends from the positive end of the Y-axis of the air guide plate 2 to the positive direction of the Y-axis. The axis of the first shaft 6 coincides with the axis of the second shaft, and the first shaft 6 and the second shaft are symmetrically arranged with respect to the symmetry plane along the Y-axis direction relative to the normal.

[0029] There are two groups of combined structures of the slider 3, coil spring 4, motor 5, first magnet 7, second magnet 8 and third magnet 9. The two combined structures are distributed along the Y-axis direction. The two sliders 3 are placed on both sides of the air guide plate 2 along the Y-axis direction. The first axis 6 cooperates with the combined structure on the negative side of the Y-axis, and the second axis cooperates with the combined structure on the positive side of the Y-axis. The two combined structures are also symmetrically arranged with respect to the symmetry plane along the Y-axis direction compared to the normal.

[0030] The air guide plate 2 of this embodiment is driven by the motors 5 in the two combined structures. The motor 5 drives the air guide plate 2 to rotate through the rotating shaft to open and close the air outlet 11. Optionally, in other embodiments of the present invention, the motor 5 in one of the two combined structures can be eliminated. In this case, the air guide plate 2 is driven by a single motor 5.

[0031] The following description takes the combination structure on the negative side of the Y-axis as an example, and the combination structure on the positive side of the Y-axis is set with reference to the combination structure on the negative side of the Y-axis, which will not be repeated below.

[0032] The slider 3 is slidably mounted on the frame 1 along the Y-axis direction, the positive side end face of the slider 3 in the Y-axis direction matches the negative side end face of the air guide plate 2 in the Y-axis direction, the motor 5, the coil spring 4, the slider 3 and the air guide plate 2 are sequentially distributed along the positive direction of the Y-axis, the motor 5 is fixed on the frame 1, the first shaft 6 is coaxially fixedly connected with the driving shaft of the motor 5, the slider 3 has a through hole passing through along the Y-axis direction, the first shaft 6 passes through the through hole, the slider 3 and the first shaft 6 are clearance-matched, the coil spring 4 is sleeved on the first shaft 6, the negative end of the coil spring 4 in the Y-axis direction is fixedly connected to the frame 1, and the positive end of the coil spring 4 in the Y-axis direction is fixedly connected to the slider 3. Of course, since the motor 5 is fixed on the frame 1, the direct fixed connection with the housing of the motor 5 also belongs to a type of fixed connection with the frame 1, so the negative end of the coil spring 4 in the Y-axis direction can also be directly fixedly connected to the housing of the motor 5.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 3 The first magnet 7 is fixed on the slider 3, the second magnet 8 and the third magnet 9 are both fixed on the air guide plate 2, the S poles of the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 8 are both located at the positive end of the Y axis, the N poles of the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 8 are both located at the negative end of the Y axis, the S pole of the third magnet 9 is located at the negative end of the Y axis, the N pole of the third magnet 9 is located at the positive end of the Y axis, the second magnet 8 is arranged adjacent to the third magnet 9, and the third magnet 9 is located on the negative side (i.e., the rear) of the second magnet 8 along direction R, and direction R is the rotation direction of the air guide plate 2 when the air outlet 11 is opened.

[0034] That is, the acting force between the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 8 is an attractive force, and the acting force between the first magnet 7 and the third magnet 9 is a repulsive force.

[0035] When the air guide plate 2 opens the air outlet 11, please refer to Figure 2 The first magnet 7 is subjected to a smaller force from the second magnet 8 and the third magnet 9, the coil spring 4 is in a free state, and the slider 3 is maintained in the first position under the action of the coil spring 4. At this time, the slider 3 is spaced apart from the opening and closing motion trajectory of the air guide plate 2.

[0036] During the process of the air guide plate 2 rotating in the opposite direction of the direction R to close the air outlet 11, the slider 3 remains in the first position for a long period of time after the air guide plate 2 starts to rotate, until the first magnet 7 and the third magnet 9 generate a large repulsive force, and the slider 3 moves away from the air guide plate 2 along the negative direction of the Y axis; and after the air guide plate 2 closes the air outlet 11, please refer to Figure 1 Under the action of the suction force between the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 8, the slider 3 moves along the positive direction of the Y axis toward the air guide plate 2 until the end surface of the slider 3 on the positive direction of the Y axis is in contact with the end surface of the slider 3 on the negative direction of the Y axis. At this time, the main surface of the slider 3 on the positive direction of the X axis is flush with the main surface of the slider 2 on the positive direction of the X axis.

[0037] Specifically, the end surface of the slider 3 on the positive side of the Y axis and the end surface of the air guide plate 2 on the negative side of the Y axis are both planes whose normal lines are along the Y axis direction.

[0038] The air guide plate 2 is not likely to interfere with or rub against the slider 3 during the movement to close the air outlet 11, which helps ensure that the air guide plate 2 moves smoothly during the process of closing the air outlet 11. After the air guide plate 2 closes the air outlet 11, since the slider 3 fits the air guide plate 2 in the Y-axis direction, no large gap will be formed on the negative side of the Y-axis of the air guide plate 2, which helps to make the appearance of the air guide assembly simple and the appearance of the air-conditioning equipment simple.

[0039] In the process of the air guide plate 2 rotating in the direction R to open the air outlet 11, please refer to Figure 3 After the air guide plate 2 rotates a preset small angle, the repulsive force of the third magnet 9 on the first magnet 7 increases. For example, the repulsive force of the third magnet 9 on the first magnet 7 increases to be greater than the attractive force of the second magnet 8 on the first magnet 7. Under the combined action of the repulsive force between the third magnet 9 and the first magnet 7 and the tension of the coil spring 4, the slider 3 slides in the negative direction along the Y-axis, and the slider 3 is out of contact with the air guide plate 2. Therefore, the air guide plate 2 will not rub against the slider 3 for a long time during the movement of opening the air outlet 11, which is conducive to ensuring that the air guide plate 2 moves smoothly during the process of opening the air outlet 11; of course, after the air guide plate 2 opens the air outlet 11, the slider 3 returns to the first position under the action of the coil spring 4.

[0040] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the air guide plate 2 closes the air outlet 11, the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 9 are directly opposite to each other in the Y-axis direction; at this time, the suction force between the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 9 is relatively large, and the sum of the suction force between the first magnet 7 and the third magnet 9 and the tension of the coil spring 4 is relatively small, so the slider 3 can slide to fit the air guide plate 2.

[0041] Of course, the air conditioning device of this embodiment also has an outer shell, which covers the outer side of the frame 1, and has an opening facing the air outlet 11. The motor 5, the coil spring 4 and part of the negative end of the Y-axis of the slider 3 are covered by the outer shell.

[0042] Specifically, the sliding fit between the slider 3 and the housing frame 1 can be set with reference to the sliding fit in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here. Of course, it is necessary to ensure that the slider 3 can only slide relative to the housing frame 1 along the set direction.

[0043] Alternatively, in other embodiments of the present invention, the air deflector 2 may also be installed by referring to other methods of the prior art, for example, the air deflector 2 is installed by using the solution with publication number CN103574869A. Of course, it is preferred that the solution satisfies: along the movement direction of the air deflector 2 to open the air outlet 11, the third magnet 9 is adjacent to the rear of the second magnet 8. In this way, during the movement of the air deflector 2 to open the air outlet 11, after the air deflector 2 moves a short stroke, the slider 3 moves away from the air deflector 2 along the Y-axis direction under the repulsive force between the second magnet 8 and the third magnet 9. The air deflector 2 does not contact the slider 3 during the long rotation stroke, and the friction stroke between the air deflector 2 and the slider 3 is short, which is conducive to ensuring that the air deflector 2 moves smoothly during the process of opening the air outlet 11.

[0044] The coil spring 4 is provided in this embodiment to enable the slider 3 to remain in the first position when the air outlet 11 is in the open state, and to ensure that the slider 3 can slide along the Y-axis direction when the first magnet 7 is subjected to a large magnetic force, so that after the air guide plate 2 closes the air outlet 11, it can be ensured that the magnetic attraction between the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 8 can force the slider 3 to slide to fit with the air guide plate 2; if the coil spring 4 is cancelled, then when the air outlet 11 is in the open state, the slider 3 may obviously deviate from the first position, for example, it may slide to the positive side of the Y-axis of the first position and be too far away from the first position, so that the slider 3 interferes with the movement of the air guide plate 2, or moves to the negative side of the Y-axis of the first position and is too far away from the first position, so that after the air guide plate 2 closes the air outlet 11, the attraction between the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 8 is not enough to force the slider 3 to slide toward the air guide plate 2 along the positive direction of the Y-axis.

[0045] In addition, since the slider 3 is provided with a through hole in the present embodiment, the first shaft 6 passes through the through hole, and the coil spring 4 is sleeved on the first shaft 6, this is conducive to maintaining the posture of the coil spring 4 stable, so that when the air outlet 11 is opened, it is further conducive to ensuring that the slider 3 can be more accurately maintained in the first position, and is conducive to ensuring that the slider 3 runs stably and smoothly according to a preset rule; of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, the slider 3 may not be provided with a through hole, the slider 3 and the first shaft 6 are separately provided, and the coil spring 4 is not sleeved on the first shaft 6. Of course, this is not conducive to maintaining the posture of the coil spring 4 stable, is not conducive to the slider 3 accurately maintaining the first position when the air outlet 11 is opened, and is not conducive to the slider 3 running smoothly according to the preset rule.

[0046] Preferably, a limiting structure is provided on the shell frame 1, and the limiting structure is located on the negative side of the Y-axis of the first position. The limiting structure limits the sliding range of the slider 3, so as to prevent the slider 3 from moving to the negative side of the Y-axis of the first position and being too far away from the first position, thereby preventing the magnetic attraction force between the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 8 from being insufficient to force the slider 3 to slide in the positive direction of the Y-axis.

[0047] More preferably, the slider 3 abuts against the limiting structure when in the first position, so that when the air guide plate 2 opens the air outlet 11, it is more conducive to ensuring that the slider 3 is stably and accurately maintained in the first position.

[0048] Alternatively, in other embodiments of the present invention, the third magnet 9 can also be eliminated, so that in the process of the air guide plate 2 opening the air outlet 11, after the air guide plate 2 rotates a small angle, the magnetic attraction between the second magnet 8 and the first magnet 7 is weakened, and the slider 3 returns to the first position under the pulling force of the coil spring 4; in the process of the air guide plate 2 closing the air outlet 11, the slider 3 is first maintained in the first position until the air guide plate 2 moves to the point where the magnetic attraction between the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 8 can overcome the pulling force of the coil spring 4, and the slider 3 slides to fit with the air guide plate 2; of course, this solution requires the first magnet 7 to be aligned with the third magnet 8. The suction force between the two magnets 8 is set to be relatively small, so that during the movement of the air guide plate 2 to open the air outlet 11, the slider 3 can be separated from the air guide plate 2 as early as possible under the pulling force of the coil spring 4; however, if the magnetic attraction between the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 8 is relatively small, then after the air guide plate 2 closes the air outlet 11, the magnetic attraction may be insufficient to force the slider 3 to move toward the air guide plate 2, resulting in the slider 3 being unable to fit normally with the air guide plate 2. Therefore, it is preferred to adopt the technical solution of providing a third magnet 9 in this embodiment; and, in this solution, one of the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 8 can be replaced with an iron body.

[0049] Optionally, in other embodiments of the present invention, the movement direction of the air guide plate 2 to open and close the air outlet 11 may not be perpendicular to the sliding direction of the slider 3. For example, the movement direction of the air guide plate 2 to open and close the air outlet 11 and the sliding direction of the slider 3 have an angle of 80°. Of course, it is preferred that the movement direction of the air guide plate 2 to open and close the air outlet 11 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the slider 3.

[0050] Alternatively, in other embodiments of the present invention, the coil spring 4 may also be located on the positive side of the Y-axis of the slider 3. For example, the negative side wall of the X-axis of the slider 3 has a connecting block protruding along the negative direction of the X-axis. The negative end of the Y-axis of the coil spring 4 is connected to the positive side wall of the Y-axis of the connecting block, and the positive end of the Y-axis of the coil spring 4 is connected to the frame 1. At this time, the coil spring 4 is mainly under pressure or in a free state. Therefore, at this time, the coil spring 4 can be fixedly connected to only one of the slider 3 and the frame 1, and abut against the other. Of course, a limiting structure needs to be set on the negative side of the Y-axis of the slider 3 to prevent the slider 3 from moving away from the first position in the negative direction of the Y-axis.

[0051] Alternatively, in other embodiments of the present invention, the coil spring 4 may also be replaced by other elastic structures such as spring plates.

[0052] The first magnet 7 , the second magnet 8 and the third magnet 9 of this embodiment are all magnets. Alternatively, in other embodiments of the present invention, the second magnet 8 may be replaced by an iron body.

[0053] Optionally, in other embodiments of the present invention, the third magnet 9 can also be fixed on the slider 3, and the third magnet 9 is arranged adjacent to the first magnet 7. Along the direction R, the third magnet 9 is located in front of the first magnet 7. Of course, the first magnet 7 in this solution can be replaced by an iron body.

[0054] Finally, it should be emphasized that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various changes and modifications. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
