[0028] To make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other implementation methods obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] Embodiment 1:

[0030] The present invention provides a wind guide device, including a fan guide structure 1 for guiding gas flow, a drive structure and a controller, wherein the fan guide structure 1 is connected to the drive structure, the fan guide structure 1 is arranged on the air inlet side of the fan 2, the drive structure is connected to the controller, and under the control of the controller, the drive device can adjust the position of the fan guide structure 1 to increase the air intake of the fan 2 at different air supply gears. For example, the device has three air supply gears and the three air supply gears are high, medium and low, respectively. When the device is in high gear, the fan guide structure 1 is in position one, when the device is in medium gear, the controller controls the drive structure to move, so that the drive structure drives the fan guide structure 1 to adjust to position two, and when the device is in low gear, the controller controls the drive structure to move, so that the drive structure drives the fan guide structure 1 to adjust to position three. The function of the fan guide structure 1 is to guide the airflow (mainly the airflow that does not flow to the fan) to the fan 2, thereby increasing the air intake of the fan. The reason why the position of the fan guide structure 1 is adjusted at different gears is that the fan speed is different at different gears, and the fan's ability to absorb airflow is also different. The fan guide structure 1 adjusts the suction range at different gears by adjusting the angle, thereby introducing more wind into the fan's suction range.

[0031] See also Figure 1 The fan 2 is a centrifugal fan, and a fan guide structure 1 is provided at one end of the fan 2, or a fan guide structure 1 is provided at both ends of the fan 2. Preferably, a fan guide structure 1 is provided at both ends of the fan 2 to increase the air intake of the fan.

[0032] See also Figure 2 The wind guide device also includes a frame 3, and the side of the fan guide structure 1 away from the axis of the fan 2 is connected to the frame 3. The fan guide structure 1 is formed with a guide surface 11, and the guide surface 11 faces the fan 2. Regarding the shape of the fan guide structure 1, the fan guide structure 1 is preferably in the shape of a guide sheet. Figure 2 , which simply illustrates the fan guide structure 1.

[0033] For example, the device has three air supply gears, and the three air supply gears are high, medium and low. Figure 2 ,think Figure 2 The position of the medium fan guide structure 1 is the position when the equipment is in a high gear (i.e., position one). When the airflow along the radial direction of the fan flows toward the fan guide structure 1, it will be guided to the fan 2; when the equipment is adjusted to the medium gear, the fan guide structure 1 will rotate along the needle and rotate at a set angle to reach position two. When the equipment is adjusted to a low gear, the fan guide structure 1 will rotate along the needle from position two and rotate at a set angle to reach position three.

[0034] If the position of the fan guide structure 1 is fixed and always in position 1, when the device is in a high gear, the airflow velocity is fast, and the airflow along the radial direction of the fan will be directed to the fan 2 when it flows to the fan guide structure 1; when the device is in a low gear, the airflow velocity is slow, and the airflow along the radial direction of the fan will flow to the fan guide structure 1. Although the airflow direction will change when it flows to the fan guide structure 1, the flow direction of part of the airflow will not always be along the extension direction of the guide surface 11, and thus, the part of the airflow may not flow to the fan 2. Therefore, the position of the fan guide structure is set to be adjustable to adapt to the airflow at different gears, so as to increase the air volume entering the fan at different gears. The fan guide structure 1 adjusts the suction range at different gears by adjusting the angle, and introduces more air into the suction range of the fan.

[0035] The connection between the frame 3 and the fan guide structure 1 can be as follows: the frame 2 includes a support frame and a rotating shaft, the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the support frame, the support frame is fixed in position, the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the fan guide structure 1, the driving structure is a driving motor, and the output shaft of the driving structure is connected to the rotating shaft. When the driving structure rotates, it drives the rotating shaft and the fan guide structure 1 fixed on the rotating shaft to rotate.

[0036] The installation of the frame 3 is described as follows: one end of the fan 2 is connected to the motor 4, the motor bracket 5 of the motor 4 forms an installation space, and the frame 3 is located in the installation space and fixedly connected to the motor bracket 5. The frame 3 can be detachably connected to the motor bracket 5 by screws or bolts.

[0037] A fan device includes a fan, a motor and the above-described wind guide device. The wind guide device can correct the wind field, and the position of the fan guide structure 1 of the wind guide device is adjustable. The position of the fan guide structure 1 is different at different gears, thereby increasing the air supply of the fan at different gears.

[0038] An electrical device includes the fan device provided by the present invention. The electrical device is a fresh air ventilator, and the fan guide structure 1 of the fan device is located on a side close to the heat exchanger 7 of the electrical device. Figure 1 and Figure 2 , indicating the position of the fan guide structure 1. When the fan 2 is in operation, the airflow flows to the fan 2 through the heat exchanger 7, and the fan guide structure 1 guides the airflow (mainly the airflow that does not flow to the fan) to flow to the fan 2, thereby increasing the air intake of the fan. The position of the fan guide structure 1 of the air guide device is adjustable, and the position of the fan guide structure 1 is different at different gears, thereby increasing the air supply of the fan at different gears.

[0039] A method for self-correcting a wind field using an air guide device includes the following contents: identifying the air supply gear position when the equipment is running; adjusting the position of a fan guide structure 1 to increase the air intake of a fan 2 at different air supply gear positions.

[0040] Specifically, when the air supply gear is lowered, the free end of the fan guide structure 1 rotates toward the direction approaching the fan 2 .

[0041] For example, the equipment has three air supply gears, which are high gear, medium gear and low gear respectively. When the equipment starts running, it starts at high gear. At this time, the fan guide structure 1 is in the initial position (position one). When the equipment has a gear adjustment, for example, when adjusted to low gear, the fan guide structure 1 will rotate along the needle and rotate the set angle to reach position three; when adjusted to medium gear, the position of the fan guide structure 1 is adjusted to position two; when adjusted to high gear, the fan guide structure 1 is in position one.

[0042] Embodiment 2:

[0043] Different from the first embodiment, the air guide device further includes a motor guide structure 6 , which is arranged on one side of the motor 4 connected to the fan 2 , and is used to guide air to the motor 4 .

[0044] At present, the fans in the existing fresh air ventilators on the market are all driven by motors. The motors generate a lot of heat when working. Since the wind field in the machine needs to be smooth, it is not easy to add other heat dissipation devices, which leads to the situation that if the motor is overheated, it will be damaged or destroyed. Based on this, the air guide device provided by the present invention also includes a motor guide structure 6, which can achieve heat dissipation of the motor 4 by guiding air to the motor 4 to protect the motor.

[0045] The motor flow guiding structure 6 is in the shape of a flow guiding sheet, and the motor flow guiding structure 6 extends along the radial direction of the motor 4. The structure of the motor flow guiding structure 6 is simple. Figure 2 , schematically showing the motor flow guide structure 6. Under the drive of the fan, air flows in from both ends of the fan. By adding the motor flow guide structure 6, part of the air flow can flow along the motor flow guide structure 6 to the motor 4, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the motor 4.

[0046] As an optional implementation, there is one motor flow guide structure 6 connected to the frame 3 connected to the fan flow guide structure 1 ; or, there are more than two motor flow guide structures 6 distributed along the circumferential direction of the motor 4 .

[0047] Regarding "the motor flow guide structure 6 is a frame 3 connected to the fan flow guide structure 1", the specific description is as follows: the frame 3 close to the motor 4 side includes a fixed shaft, the fixed shaft is fixedly connected to the support frame of the frame, the fixed shaft is arranged parallel to and close to the rotating shaft, and the motor flow guide structure 6 is fixed on the fixed shaft.

[0048] See also Figure 2 and Figure 5When the fan guide structure 1 is in position one, the angle between the fan guide structure 1 and the motor guide structure 6 is about 30°. When the fan guide structure 1 is in position two, the angle between the fan guide structure 1 and the motor guide structure 6 is about 45°. When the fan guide structure 1 is in position three, the angle between the fan guide structure 1 and the motor guide structure 6 is about 60°.

[0049] Embodiment 3:

[0050] At present, the fans in the existing fresh air ventilators on the market are all driven by motors. The motors will generate a lot of heat when working. Since the wind field in the machine needs to be smooth, it is not easy to add other heat dissipation devices, which will cause the motor to be damaged or destroyed if it overheats. Based on this, the present invention provides a motor guide structure, in which the motor guide structure 6 is arranged on one side of the motor 4 connected to the fan 2, and the motor guide structure 6 is used to guide the wind to the motor 4. Driven by the fan, the airflow enters from both ends of the fan. By adding the motor guide structure 6, part of the airflow can flow along the motor guide structure 6 to the motor 4, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the motor 4.

[0051] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
