Furthermore, features defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features.

[0038] Hereinafter, an air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0039] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, the air conditioner 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 1 , a driving box 2 , a switch door 3 and a driving mechanism 4 .

[0040] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the housing 1 is provided with an air outlet 11. Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the example shown, the air outlet 11 extends in the vertical direction. The drive box 2 is provided in the housing 1. The drive box 2 can be used to carry the drive mechanism 4 and the switch door 3, and provide a support platform for the drive mechanism 4 and the switch door 3. Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, the switch door 3 is movably provided on the drive box 2 to open or close the air outlet 11. When the switch door 3 opens the air outlet 11, the air outlet 11 can discharge air normally, and the air conditioner 100 can realize the cooling or heating function; when the switch door 3 closes the air outlet 11, the switch door 3 blocks the air outlet 11, which can play a dust-proof role and increase the aesthetics of the air conditioner 100.

[0041] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the drive box 2 is provided with a guide groove 221 extending along the moving direction of the switch door 3. The guide groove 221 includes a main section 2211 and a bent section 2212. In the direction of the switch door 3 closing the air outlet 11, the main section 2211 and the bent section 2212 are arranged in sequence. One end of the bent section 2212 is connected to one end of the main section 2211, and the other end of the bent section 2212 extends obliquely toward the outside of the housing 1. Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown, the switch door 3 is provided with a first guide column 31 and a second guide column 32 that cooperate with the guide groove 221. The first guide column 31 and the second guide column 32 are spaced apart along the moving direction of the switch door 3, and in the direction of closing the air outlet 11 of the switch door 3, the first guide column 31 is located at the front end of the second guide column 32. The first guide column 31 and the second guide column 32 slide in the guide groove 221, which can limit the moving trajectory of the switch door 3, thereby guiding the switch door 3, making it convenient for the switch door 3 to open or close the air outlet 11.

[0042] Optionally, the first guide post 31 and the second guide post 32 are respectively located at two ends of the moving direction of the door 3, thereby facilitating the guidance of the door 3.

[0043] When closing the air outlet 11, the first guide post 31 and the second guide post 32 move along the guide slot 221. The first guide post 31 can move from the main section 2211 to the end of the bent section 2212 away from the main section 2211. Because the end of the bent section 2212 away from the main section 2211 extends obliquely toward the exterior of the housing 1, the first guide post 31 drives the corresponding end of the switch door 3 toward the exterior of the housing 1. A notch 222 is provided on the sidewall of the main section 2211 facing the exterior of the housing 1. When the first guide post 31 is located at the end of the bent section 2212 away from the main section 2211, the second guide post 32 faces the notch 222 and can be moved out of the main section 2211 through the notch 222. It will be appreciated that when closing the air outlet 11, when the first guide post 31 moves to the end of the bent section 2212 away from the main section 2211, the second guide post 32 faces the notch 222 and can be moved out of the notch 222 toward the exterior. In this way, the other end of the switch door 3 can also be moved toward the outside of the shell 1, so that the entire switch door 3 is closer to the outside of the shell 1 when the air outlet 11 is closed. The switch door 3 can be located inside the air outlet 11, better blocking the air outlet 11 and preventing dust from entering from the air outlet 11. In addition, the distance between the appearance surface of the switch door 3 and the appearance surface of the shell 1 can be made smaller, thereby improving the appearance of the air conditioner 100.

[0044] In addition, the switch door 3 of the present application is assembled in a guide groove 221, which is simple to assemble and has high production efficiency.

[0045] Preferably, when the door 3 closes the air outlet 11, the exterior surface of the door 3 is flush with the exterior surface of the housing 1. This allows the door 3 to better block the air outlet 11, preventing dust from entering through the air outlet 11, and further enhances the appearance of the air conditioner 100, making the air conditioner 100 more aesthetically pleasing.

[0046] The drive mechanism 4 is disposed on the drive box 2 and is connected to the switch door 3. When the air outlet 11 is closed, the drive mechanism 4 drives the first guide post 31 and the second guide post 32 to move along the guide groove 221. When the first guide post 31 is located at the end of the bent section 2212 away from the main section 2211, the drive mechanism 4 drives the second guide post 32 to pass through the notch 222 and move toward the outside of the housing 1. This facilitates driving the switch door 3 toward the outside of the housing 1, so that the switch door 3 is closer to the outside of the housing 1 when closing the air outlet 11. This allows the switch door 3 to be located within the air outlet 11, better blocking the air outlet 11 and preventing dust from entering the air outlet 11. In addition, the distance between the exterior surface of the switch door 3 and the exterior surface of the housing 1 can be reduced, thereby improving the appearance of the air conditioner 100.

[0047] According to the air conditioner 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, a guide groove 221 is provided on the driving box 2, and the guide groove 221 includes a main section 2211 and a bent section 2212 connected to the main section 2211, and the end of the bent section 2212 away from the main section 2211 is inclined toward the outside of the housing 1, and a notch 222 is provided on the main section 2211, and a first guide column 31 and a second guide column 32 are provided on the switch door 3 to cooperate with the guide groove 221. When the first guide column 31 is located at the end of the bent section 2212 away from the main section 2211, the second guide column 32 is provided. The guide column 32 is opposite to the notch 222 and can be moved out of the guide groove 221 from the notch 222. When the air outlet 11 is closed, the front and rear ends of the switch door 3 can be driven by the driving mechanism 4 to move toward the outside of the shell 1, so that the switch door 3 is closer to the outside of the shell 1 when the air outlet 11 is closed. The switch door 3 can be located inside the air outlet 11, better blocking the air outlet 11 and preventing dust from entering from the air outlet 11. In addition, the distance between the appearance surface of the switch door 3 and the appearance surface of the shell 1 can be made smaller, thereby improving the appearance of the air conditioner 100.

[0048] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figures 9-12 As shown, the drive mechanism 4 includes a motor 41, a gear 42, a rack 43, and a connecting rod 44. Specifically, the motor 41 is mounted on the drive box 2, the gear 42 is connected to the motor 41, and the rack 43 is movably mounted on the drive box 2. The rack 43 moves in the same direction as the door 3. The rack 43 engages with the gear 42, and the motor 41 drives the gear 42 to rotate, which in turn drives the rack 43 to move on the drive box 2. One end of the connecting rod 44 is rotationally connected to the door 3, and the other end of the connecting rod 44 is rotationally connected to the rack 43. As the rack 43 moves, it drives the door 3 to move via the connecting rod 44, thereby causing the door 3 to open or close the air outlet 11.

[0049] Specifically, when the switch door 3 closes the air outlet 11, the rack 43 drives the switch door 3 to move via the connecting rod 44, and the first guide post 31 moves along the guide groove 221 from the main section 2211 to the bent section 2212, thereby causing the front end of the switch door 3 to move toward the outside of the housing 1. The second guide post 32 moves along the main section 2211. When the first guide post 31 moves to the end of the bent section 2212 away from the main section 2211, the second guide post 32 faces the notch 222. At this time, the rack 43 continues to move and pushes the connecting rod 44 to move. Since the switch door 3 cannot continue to move along the guide groove 221, the connecting rod 44 pushes the switch door 3, and the second guide post 32 moves out of the notch 222 and out of the guide groove 221 toward the outside of the housing 1, thereby causing the rear end of the switch door 3 to also move forward. Figure 13 shown.

[0050] The front end and the rear end are relative to when the door 3 closes the air outlet 11 , the part that moves to the air outlet 11 first is the front end, and the part that moves to the air outlet 11 later is the rear end.

[0051] In the present application, the aforementioned drive structure allows the switch door 3 to move the entire switch door 3 toward the outside of the housing 1 when closing the air outlet 11. When the switch door 3 closes the air outlet 11, it is closer to the outside of the housing 1, allowing the switch door 3 to be located within the air outlet 11, better blocking the air outlet 11 and preventing dust from entering through the air outlet 11. Furthermore, the distance between the exterior surface of the switch door 3 and the exterior surface of the housing 1 can be reduced, thereby improving the appearance of the air conditioner 100. Furthermore, the aforementioned drive mechanism 4 has a simple structure, low cost, and high reliability, allowing the switch door 3 to move a greater distance out of the housing 1, facilitating alignment of the exterior surface of the switch door 3 with the exterior surface of the housing 1. Furthermore, a single motor 41 is used to drive the switch door 3 to close the air outlet 11 and move it toward the outside of the housing 1, saving costs.

[0052] like Figure 9 and Figure 11 As shown, the switch door 3 is provided with a first boss 33, one end of a connecting rod 44 is sleeved on the first boss 33, and the rack 43 is provided with a second boss 432, the other end of the connecting rod 44 is sleeved on the second boss 432. The first boss 33 has a circular cross-section, and the second boss 432 also has a circular cross-section. The connecting rod 44 has a circular hole at each end, which sleeves on the first boss 33 or the second boss 432, thereby achieving a rotational connection between the connecting rod 44, the switch door 3, and the rack 43. This facilitates the movement of the rack 43, which pushes the switch door 3 along the guide groove 221. When the second guide post 32 is opposite the notch 222, the switch door 3 is pushed toward the outside of the housing 1.

[0053] Furthermore, a first stopper is provided at the free end of the first boss 33, and the connecting rod 44 is located between the first stopper and the door 3. A second stopper is provided at the free end of the second boss 432, and the connecting rod 44 is located between the second stopper and the rack 43. This prevents the connecting rod 44 from falling off the first boss 33 and the second boss 432, thereby improving the reliability of the movement of the door 3.

[0054] Optionally, the first limiting member and the second limiting member may be screws connected to the first boss 33 and the second boss 432 , and the nuts of the screws limit the connecting rod 44 from coming off the first boss 33 and the second boss 432 .

[0055] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 10 and Figure 13As shown, the connecting rod 44 is rotatably connected to the end of the switch door 3 located on the side of the second guide post 32 away from the first guide post 31. It will be understood that when the switch door 3 is in the direction of closing the air outlet 11, the switch door 3 has a front end and a rear end, and the connecting rod 44 is rotatably connected to the rear end of the switch door 3. This facilitates the connecting rod 44 to drive the rear end of the switch door 3 to move toward the outside of the housing 1 when the second guide post 32 and the notch 222 are opposite each other.

[0056] like Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the drive box 2 includes an upper cover 21 and a lower cover 22, which are connected to each other. The motor 41 is located on the upper cover 21, the gear 42 and the rack 43 are located between the upper cover 21 and the lower cover 22, and the guide groove 221 is located on the lower cover 22. This facilitates the layout of the drive mechanism 4 and facilitates the fixation of the drive mechanism 4, which can improve the reliability of the drive mechanism 4.

[0057] like Figure 12 As shown, the side of the rack 43 facing the outside of the housing 1 is provided with a skirt 431. When the door 3 opens the air outlet 11, the skirt 431 opposes the air outlet 11. Therefore, when the door 3 opens the air outlet 11, a gap is created at this location due to the movement of the rack 43 and the door 3 into the housing 1. Providing the skirt 431 opposite the air outlet 11 shields the internal structure, preventing air leakage and enhancing the aesthetics of the air conditioner 100. Furthermore, the side of the rack 43 facing the interior of the housing 1 opposite the skirt 431 is partially untoothed, while the other portion is toothed, simplifying the structure of the rack 43.

[0058] In some embodiments of the present invention, the depth of the notch 222 is less than the depth of the guide groove 221, the extension depth of the first guide post 31 within the guide groove 221 is greater than the depth of the notch 222, and the extension depth of the second guide post 32 within the guide groove 221 is less than the depth of the notch 222. This allows the first guide post 31 to better avoid the notch 222 when moving along the guide groove 221 past the notch 222, preventing the first guide post 31 from moving out of the guide groove 221 through the notch 222. Furthermore, the second guide post 32 can smoothly move out of the guide groove 221 at the notch 222 and toward the exterior of the housing 1, thereby ensuring the reliability of the movement of the door 3.

[0059] In some embodiments of the present invention, there are two drive boxes 2, which are respectively located at the opposite ends of the switch door 3. The opposite ends of the switch door 3 are respectively movably provided on the corresponding drive boxes 2. There are two drive mechanisms 4, which correspond one-to-one to the two drive boxes 2. The two drive mechanisms 4 drive the opposite ends of the switch door 3 respectively to ensure the reliability of the movement of the switch door 3.

[0060] For example, Figure 1In the example shown, the air outlet 11 extends in the up and down directions, and the switch door 3 moves in the horizontal direction to open or close the air outlet 11. There are two drive boxes 2, and the two drive boxes 2 are respectively arranged at the upper and lower ends of the switch door 3. There are two drive mechanisms 4, and the two drive mechanisms 4 are respectively arranged on the two drive boxes 2 and drive the upper and lower ends of the switch door 3 respectively, thereby ensuring the reliability of the movement of the switch door 3.
