Detailed Implementation
[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

By moving the air guide plate 3, the flow path of the airflow passing through it is increased, particularly allowing the air guide plate 3 to move horizontally, increasing the horizontal distance the airflow travels, thereby increasing the horizontal air delivery distance and the waterfall-style cooling effect of the ceiling fan. Figure 3 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the air guide plate 3 when it is close to the second mounting component 2. Figure 4 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the air guide plate 3 when it is far away from the second mounting component 2;
[0038] The first mounting component 1 has a first end 11 and a second end 12, and the line connecting the first end 11 and the second end 12 forms an angle with the vertical direction. The air guide plate 3 can move along the line connecting the first end 11 and the second end 12. That is, the air guide plate 3 moves obliquely, so that the movement of the air guide plate 3 can simultaneously meet the needs of the horizontal and vertical directions. At the same time, it can also avoid the need to set too many and too complex structures in the horizontal direction of the air guide plate 3 when the air guide plate 3 moves horizontally directly, which would make the air outlet assembly too large in the horizontal direction and affect its use.
[0039] The air outlet assembly also includes a drive mechanism, which is disposed on the first mounting member 1 and / or the second mounting member 2, and the drive mechanism is capable of moving the air guide plate 3.
[0040] The driving mechanism comprises a first rack 41 and a driving member 42, the first rack 41 is arranged on the first mounting member 1, the driving member 42 is arranged on the first mounting member 1 and / or the second mounting member 2, the driving member 42 can drive the first rack 41 to move along the direction of the line connecting the first end 11 and the second end 12, and the air deflector 3 is rotatably arranged on the first rack 41. The linear movement of the first rack 41 realizes the oblique movement of the air deflector 3, and the reliability of the movement direction of the air deflector 3 is ensured.
[0041] The first mounting member 1 is further provided with a first guide mechanism, and the first rack 41 is movably arranged on the first guide mechanism.

[0043] Specifically, the first rack 41 is provided with a guide portion, the guide portion is located inside the first guide channel, and the first guide channel can limit the movement direction of the guide portion, so as to avoid the shaking of the air deflector 3 during the movement and reduce the generation of noise.
[0044] The driving mechanism further comprises a second rack 43, the second rack 43 is movably arranged on the second mounting member 2, the driving member 42 can drive the second rack 43 to move, and the movement direction of the first rack 41 and the movement direction of the second rack 43 have an included angle. The movement direction of the second rack 43 and the first rack 41 has an included angle, which offsets or cooperates with the component of part of the direction in the oblique movement of the air deflector 3, so as to increase the guiding effect of the air port assembly on the airflow.
[0045] The second mounting member 2 is further provided with a second guide mechanism, and the second rack 43 is movably arranged on the second guide mechanism. The second guide mechanism limits the movement direction of the second rack 43, and ensures the reliable operation of the second rack 43.
[0046] The second guide mechanism comprises at least two second guide wheels 52, all the second guide wheels 52 form a second guide channel on the second mounting member 2, the guide direction of the second guide channel has the included angle with the movement direction of the first rack 41, and the second rack 43 is movably arranged on the second guide channel.
[0047] Specifically, the second rack 43 is provided with a guide part, the guide part is located inside the second guide channel, the second guide channel can limit the moving direction of the guide part, so as to avoid the second rack 43 (the air outlet assembly) from shaking during the movement and reduce the generation of noise.
[0048] The driving member 42 comprises a first gear 421 and a second gear 422 which are engaged with each other, the first gear 421 and the second gear 422 are located between the first mounting member 1 and the second mounting member 2, and the first gear 421 is engaged with the first rack 41, and the second gear 422 is engaged with the second rack 43. The first gear 421 and the second gear 422 are reversely rotated through the engagement of the first gear 421 and the second gear 422, so as to ensure that the first rack 41 moves downward (the air outlet assembly descends) while the second rack 43 moves in a diagonal downward direction (the air deflector 3 moves away from the second mounting member 2), and the first rack 41 moves upward (the air outlet assembly ascends) while the second rack 43 moves in a diagonal upward direction (the air deflector 3 moves close to the second mounting member 2).

[0052] Further, the air deflector 3 is connected to the air outlet assembly 200 by a flexible connecting member 10. With the connection of the flexible connecting member 10, when the air deflector 3 moves, the flexible connecting member 10 deforms synchronously, at this time, the air flow discharged from the air outlet 300 can flow through the flexible connecting member 10 and the air deflector 3 in turn and then be discharged, the horizontal moving distance of the air flow is increased, thereby achieving the purpose of increasing the air supply distance of the ceiling machine.

When the air outlet assembly 200 needs to be lowered, the second rack 43 can drive the air outlet assembly 200 to be lowered, at the same time, the air deflector 3 can be obliquely moved under the driving of the first rack 41, the vertical component of the oblique movement is the same as the lowering displacement of the air outlet assembly 200, and the horizontal component of the oblique movement can realize the horizontal movement of the air deflector 3, thereby achieving the purpose of increasing the horizontal flow of the air outlet 300.

[0056] The ceiling machine has a cooling mode and a heating mode:
[0057] In the cooling mode, the air outlet assembly 200 is lowered, and at the same time, the air deflector 3 moves away from the main frame 100, thereby increasing the horizontal flow distance of the air outlet 300, increasing the air supply distance, and achieving the effect of waterfall cooling, as shown in Figure 1 .
[0058] In the heating mode, the air outlet assembly 200 remains stationary, and the air deflector 3 swings downward, so that the air flow can flow downward, thereby achieving the effect of rapid heating, as shown in Figure 2 .
