[0047] The link member for driving the air deflector 6 to move provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a driving link member. The driving link member includes a slideway surface and a limiting surface. A slideway portion is provided on the slideway surface. The driving link member can be drivingly connected to a driving element through the slideway portion. A first limiting portion is provided on the limiting surface, which can define the movement track of the driving link member. Driven by the driving element, the driving link member can drive the air deflector 6 to move, and the driving link member can cooperate with a driven link member to realize the extension and rotation of the air deflector 6.
[0048] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the above-mentioned driving element can be a crank element 1, such as Figure 6 shown.
[0049] The crank element 1 provided by the embodiment of the present application includes a driving surface 101 and a rotating surface 102. The driving surface 101 is the surface of the crank element 1 drivingly connected to the motor 5. The rotating surface 102 is opposite to the driving surface 101. Among them, a first transmission shaft 11 and a second transmission shaft 12 are provided on the rotating surface 102. The first transmission shaft 11 is provided at the end of the driving surface 101, and the first transmission shaft 11 is used to drive the first connecting rod 2 drivingly connected to the crank element 1 to move; the second transmission shaft 12 is provided between the first transmission shaft 11 and the rotation center of the crank element 1, and the second transmission shaft 12 is used to change the direction of movement of the first connecting rod 2. Optionally, both the first transmission shaft 11 and the second transmission shaft 12 are provided perpendicular to the rotating surface 102, which is beneficial to the driving transmission between the two transmission shafts and the connecting rod.
[0050] The rotation center of the crank element 1 can be understood as the center of the virtual circle formed by the crank element 1 rotating around the motor 5. Optionally, the second transmission shaft 12 abuts against the connecting rod or a certain position of the connecting rod. When the crank element 1 rotates to a certain position, the second transmission shaft 12 abuts against the connecting rod or a certain position of the connecting rod, so that a abutting force is generated between the second transmission shaft 12 and the connecting rod, thereby promoting the change of the movement direction of the connecting rod. Optionally, the connecting rod in this paragraph can be the aforementioned first connecting rod 2.
[0051] Optionally, the crank element 1 includes a rotating disk and a rotating rod, and the rotating disk is connected to the rotating rod. Among them, the first transmission shaft 11 is arranged at the end of the rotating rod, and the second transmission shaft 12 is arranged at the connection between the rotating rod and the rotating disk. Optionally, a reinforcing column 14 is arranged at the position of the driving surface 101 opposite to the second transmission shaft 12 to improve the strength and stability of the driving force for motion redirection provided by the second transmission shaft 12. Optionally, the rotating disk and the rotating rod are integrally formed. Optionally, the rotating rod is straight.
[0052] Optionally, the driving surface 101 is provided with a reinforcing rib 13 along the rotating rod, which improves the strength and stability of the driving force provided by the first transmission shaft 11 and the second transmission shaft 12 for the connecting rod. Optionally, the reinforcing rib 13 is integrally formed with the crank element 1.
[0053] The crank element 1 provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a driving force for a motion assembly that can simultaneously drive the air deflector 6 to extend and rotate. At the same time, the crank element 1 is provided with a second transmission shaft 12, which can generate a contact force with the first connecting rod 2 to drive the first connecting rod 2 to change the direction of motion.
[0054] Optionally, the slideway part includes a first slideway 201.
[0055] Optionally, the first slideway 201 is a slideway with a certain depth and can accommodate the first transmission shaft 11 of the crank element 1. The first transmission shaft 11 of the crank element 1 can slide in the first slideway 201, and then push the first connecting rod 2 to drive the air deflector 6 to move under the limitation of the first limiting part.
[0056] Optionally, the slideway part further includes a first branch slideway 202 and a second branch slideway 203. The first branch slideway 202 is in transmission connection with the driving element, so that the active connecting rod member changes the direction of motion in one direction under the drive of the driving element; the second branch slideway 203 is in transmission connection with the driving element, so that the active connecting rod member changes the direction of motion in another direction under the drive of the driving element, where the extending directions of the first branch slideway 202 and the second branch slideway 203 are different. Among them, the driving element in this paragraph can be the crank element 1, and both the first branch slideway 202 and the second branch slideway 203 are in transmission connection with the second transmission shaft 12 of the crank element 1.
[0057] The first branch slideway 202 and the second branch slideway 203 respectively give the second transmission shaft 12 contact forces in different directions to respectively prompt the first connecting rod 2 to move along a preset track, and then drive the air deflector 6 to open in a preset direction.
[0058] Optionally, the first branch slideway 202 includes a first linear abutting slideway and a first arc slideway extending along the first linear abutting slideway; the second branch slideway 203 includes a second linear abutting slideway and a second arc slideway extending along the second linear abutting slideway, wherein the first linear abutting slideway is used to abut against the driving element so that the active link member changes its direction of movement in one direction under the drive of the driving element, and the second linear abutting slideway is used to abut against the driving element so that the active link member changes its direction of movement in the other direction under the drive of the driving element.
[0059] The first linear abutting slideway is perpendicular to the first slideway 201, and the second linear abutting slideway is also perpendicular to the first slideway 201. During the rotation of the crank element 1, the first transmission shaft 11 of the crank element 1 slides in the first slideway 201 of the first connecting rod 2, and the second transmission shaft 12 of the crank element 1 can slide in the first branch slideway 202 and the second branch slideway 203. In the above process, the second transmission shaft 12 can abut against the first linear abutting slideway of the first branch slideway 202, or the second transmission shaft 12 abuts against the second linear abutting slideway of the second branch slideway 203. In this way, the movement of the first connecting rod 2 can be redirected, thereby driving the air deflector 6 to open upward or downward.
[0060] Optionally, the first branch slideway 202 and the second branch slideway 203 are arranged on the same side of the first slideway 201.
[0061] Optionally, the first slideway 201 is communicated with the first branch slideway 202 and the second branch slideway 203.
[0062] As Figure 3 shown, both the first branch slideway 202 and the second branch slideway 203 are arranged on the same side of the first slideway 201, and both the first branch slideway 202 and the second branch slideway 203 intersect with the first slideway 201. Optionally, the first branch slideway 202 and the second branch slideway 203 are respectively arranged at both ends of the center line of the first slideway 201.
[0063] Optionally, the depth of the first slideway 201 is greater than or equal to the depths of the first branch slideway 202 and the second branch slideway 203.
[0064] Optionally, the depth of the first branch slideway 202 and the depth of the second branch slideway 203 can be the same, and the depth of the first branch slideway 202 and the depth of the second branch slideway 203 match the length of the second transmission shaft 12 of the crank element 1, and the depth of the first slideway 201 matches the length of the first transmission shaft 11 of the crank element 1. The length of the first transmission shaft 11 is greater than the length of the second transmission shaft 12. During the rotation of the first transmission shaft 11, the second transmission shaft 12, as the middle transmission shaft, will also move in the virtual circle formed by the rotation of the first transmission shaft 11. The length of the second transmission shaft 12 is less than the length of the first transmission shaft 11, that is, the depth of the first branch slideway 202 and the depth of the second branch slideway 203 are both less than the depth of the first slideway 201. In this way, during the rotation of the crank element 1, it is conducive to the second transmission shaft 12 to enter the motion track, that is, enter the first branch slideway 202 or the second branch slideway 203 under the driving force of the crank element 1, and the second transmission shaft 12 can maintain abutment with the first branch slideway 202 or the second branch slideway 203.
[0065] Optionally, the slideway surface is further provided with an avoidance groove, and the avoidance groove is connected to the first slideway 201 .
[0066] During the rotation of the first transmission shaft 11 of the crank element 1, the second transmission shaft 12 will also move in the virtual circle formed by the rotation of the first transmission shaft 11, so the avoidance groove is required to provide a rotation space for the follow-up rotation of the second transmission shaft 12. Optionally, the depth of the avoidance groove is the same as the depth of the first branch slideway 202 and the second branch slideway 203, so that under the drive of the crank element 1, it is conducive to the second transmission shaft 12 to rotate from the avoidance groove to the first branch slideway 202 or the second branch slideway 203, and the second transmission shaft 12 is kept in abutment with the first branch slideway 202 or the second branch slideway 203.
[0067] Optionally, the connecting rod component further includes a driven connecting rod component rotatably connected to the air guide plate 6 , and the driven connecting rod component is transmission-connected to the active connecting rod component through the air guide plate 6 .
[0068] In the embodiment of the present application, the driven connecting rod is the second connecting rod 2 described below. Optionally, the first connecting rod 2 is further provided with a first connecting shaft 204, and the first connecting shaft 204 is plugged with the first mounting portion 611 on the mounting seat 61 of the air deflector 6 to achieve a rotatable connection between the first connecting rod 2 and the air deflector 6. Optionally, the second connecting rod 3 is further provided with a second connecting shaft 32, and the second connecting shaft 32 is plugged with the second mounting portion 612 on the mounting seat 61 of the air deflector 6 to achieve a rotatable connection between the second connecting rod 3 and the air deflector 6.
[0069] Optionally, the second link 3 is provided with a through chute 31 through which the first cooperation slider 212 of the first link 2 penetrates. The provision of the through chute 31 on the second link 3 enables the first cooperation slider 212 of the first link 2 to move through the through chute 31.
[0070] Optionally, the limiting surface of the first link 2 is in direct contact with the second link 3, and a first contact flange 213 is provided on the limiting surface of the first link 2, reducing the contact area between the two links and reducing the frictional force when the two links move relative to each other. Optionally, a first strengthening beam 214 is also provided on the limiting surface.
[0071] Optionally, the second link 3 is provided with a second limiting portion, and the second limiting portion includes a plurality of limiting sliders. Optionally, the number of limiting sliders is greater than or equal to 2. In the embodiment of the present application, the second limiting portion includes a second limiting slider 33, a third limiting slider 34, and a fourth limiting slider 35, and the second limiting slider 33, the third limiting slider 34, and the fourth limiting slider 35 are arranged in a triangular shape, improving the limiting effect on the second link 3.
[0072] The embodiment of the present disclosure provides a motion assembly, as Figures 7 to 12 shown.
[0073] In some embodiments, the motion assembly includes the above-described link member for driving the air deflector 6 to move and a driving element. The driving element is provided with a transmission shaft, and the transmission shaft is in transmission connection with the chute portion of the active link member to drive the active link member to move. Optionally, the driving element can be a crank element 1. The crank element 1 is provided with a first transmission shaft 11, and the first transmission shaft 11 is in transmission connection with the first chute 201 of the first link 2 and drives the first link 2 to move.
[0074] Optionally, under the limitation of their respective limiting portions, the first link 2 and the second link 3 first move linearly simultaneously, and the first link 2 and the second link 3 jointly drive the air deflector 6 to move linearly, so that the air deflector 6 linearly extends from the closed state to the first preset position; then, the first link 2 changes its direction of movement under the limitation of the first limiting portion, and the second link 3 continues to move linearly. At this time, relative movement occurs between the first link 2 and the second link 3, and the first link 2 and the second link 3 jointly drive the air deflector 6 to rotate.
[0075] Optionally, the first preset position is the position where the air deflector 6 translates out of the air conditioner and is about to start rotating. At this time, there is a certain distance between the air deflector 6 and the air outlet, and the air deflector 6 can be opened upward or downward at the first preset position. Optionally, the rotation position of the air deflector 6 is not limited to the first preset position. The first preset position can also be understood as the initial position where the air deflector 6 rotates, and the rotation of the air deflector 6 can be understood as extending and rotating at the same time.
[0076] It can be seen that the link assembly for driving the air deflector 6 provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure can drive the air deflector 6 to extend and rotate simultaneously. The link assembly provides two driving forces for the movement assembly to drive the air deflector 6 to move, enabling the air deflector 6 to be driven to extend and rotate by using a single movement assembly, simplifying the structure of the movement assembly and saving the internal space of the indoor unit of the air conditioner.
[0077] Optionally, the movement assembly further includes an orbital plate 4.
[0078] Optionally, the orbital plate 4 is provided with an orbital portion that defines the movement of the first link and the second link. The orbital portion includes a first orbit that defines the movement of the first link 2. Among them, the first orbit includes a first linear orbit 41. The first link 2 is driven by the first transmission shaft 11 of the crank element 1 and moves linearly along the first linear orbit 41 to drive the air deflector 6 to extend to a first preset position, or drive the air deflector 6 to retract from the first preset position to the air outlet.
[0079] Optionally, the orbital portion further includes a second orbit 44 that defines the movement of the second link 3. Among them, the second orbit 44 includes a second linear orbit. The second link 3 is driven by the air deflector 6 and moves linearly along the second linear orbit. Furthermore, the first link 2 and the second link 3 jointly drive the air deflector 6 to move linearly, extending from the air outlet to the first preset position, or driving the air deflector 6 to retract from the first preset position to the air outlet.
[0080] Optionally, the first orbit further includes a first bifurcated orbit. The first bifurcated orbit intersects with the first linear orbit 41. The first link 2 is driven by the first transmission shaft 11 of the crank element 1. The first link 2 moves from the first linear orbit 41 to the first bifurcated orbit, changing the movement direction of the first link 2. The second link 3 continues to move linearly along the second linear orbit. The first link 2 and the second link 3 have a relative movement to drive the air deflector 6 to rotate.
[0081] The first bifurcated orbit intersects with the first linear orbit 41. It can be understood that the extension direction of the first bifurcated orbit is different from that of the first linear orbit 41. When the first link 2 moves from the first linear orbit 41 to the first bifurcated orbit driven by the crank element 1, the movement direction of the first link 2 changes. At this time, the second link 3 continues to move linearly along the second linear orbit. Therefore, the first link 2 and the second link 3 have a relative movement, and both the first link 2 and the second link 3 are rotatably connected to the air deflector 6. Furthermore, the first link 2 and the second link 3 drive the air deflector 6 to rotate. Optionally, the first bifurcated orbit includes a first branch orbit 42 and a second branch orbit 43 with different extension directions, so that the movement assembly drives the air deflector 6 to rotate in different directions.

[0083] Optionally, the time node when the second transmission shaft 12 of the crank element 1 enters the first branch slideway 202 or the second branch slideway 203 precedes the time node when the first connecting rod 2 moves along the first branch track 42 or the second branch track 43, so that the first connecting rod 2 changes its movement direction under the acting force of the abutting force of the second transmission shaft 12 of the crank element 1 along a preset direction.
[0084] Optionally, when the crank element 1 rotates in the first direction to the second preset position, the second transmission shaft 12 of the crank element 1 abuts against the first branch slideway 202, and the second transmission shaft 12 of the crank element 1 generates an abutting force that drives the first connecting rod 2 to move along the first branch track 42, so that the movement track of the first connecting rod 2 is to move along the first branch track 42, and further the movement assembly drives the air deflector 6 to open upward; when the crank element 1 rotates in the second direction to the third preset position, the second transmission shaft 12 of the crank element 1 abuts against the second branch slideway 203, and the second transmission shaft 12 of the crank element 1 generates an abutting force that drives the first connecting rod 2 to move along the second branch track 43, so that the movement track of the first connecting rod 2 is to move along the second branch track 43, and further the movement assembly drives the air deflector 6 to open downward.

Optionally, when the crank element 1 rotates in the second direction to the third preset position, the second included angle between the connecting line formed by the first transmission shaft 11 of the crank element 1 and the rotation center of the crank element 1 and the first linear track 41 is greater than 85°.
[0086] The driving method for extending and rotating the air deflector 6 by using the motion assembly provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure is as follows:
[0087] When the air deflector 6 is in the closed state, the initial state of the motion assembly is as Figure 7 shown. The crank element 1 rotates in the first direction, the first transmission shaft 11 of the crank element 1 slides in the first slideway 201 of the first connecting rod 2, the first connecting rod 2 makes a linear motion under the limitation of the first end slider 211 and the first cooperating slider 212, and at the same time, the second connecting rod 3 makes a linear motion under the limitation of the second track 44. Furthermore, the first connecting rod 2 and the second connecting rod 3 drive the air deflector 6 to linearly extend to the first preset position. When the crank element 1 rotates in the first direction, the first preset position is as Figure 9 shown.
[0088] After reaching the first preset position, the second transmission shaft 12 of the crank element 1 enters the first branch slideway 202, and the second transmission shaft 12 generates a resisting force with the first branch slideway 202, thereby controlling the first end slider 211 of the first connecting rod 2 to move into the first branch track 42. And at this time, the first cooperating slider 212 of the first connecting rod 2 continues to make a linear motion. The first connecting rod 2 changes its motion direction under the limitation of the first end slider 211 and the first cooperating slider 212, and the second connecting rod 3 continues to make a linear motion. Therefore, the air deflector 6 is driven by the first connecting rod 2 and the second connecting rod 3 to open upward.
[0089] After reaching the first preset position, the second transmission shaft 12 of the crank element 1 enters the second branch slideway 203, and the second transmission shaft 12 generates a resisting force with the second branch slideway 203, thereby controlling the first end slider 211 of the first connecting rod 2 to move into the second branch track 43. And at this time, the first cooperating slider 212 of the first connecting rod 2 continues to make a linear motion. The first connecting rod 2 changes its motion direction under the limitation of the first end slider 211 and the first cooperating slider 212, and the second connecting rod 3 continues to make a linear motion. Therefore, the air deflector 6 is driven by the first connecting rod 2 and the second connecting rod 3 to open downward.
