Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of air treatment devices, and in particular to an air guide module and an air treatment device. Background Art

[0002] An air handling unit (AHU) is a device that regulates and controls parameters such as temperature, humidity, and flow rate within a building's ambient air. It blows treated air out through outlets. However, since AHUs typically only have outlets on one side, high airflow directly directed at users can easily cause discomfort.

[0003] In the prior art, a guide plate can be provided on the air outlet end face of the air handling device, and the guide plate can be controlled to move forward and backward and up and down. Under the system resistance of the guide plate, the wind blown out of the air outlet is diverted, that is, the wind is blown out from the air outlet gap formed between the guide plate and the air outlet end face to form a multi-side air outlet state. However, in order to realize the forward and backward movement and up and down movement of the guide plate, the movement trajectory of the guide plate is relatively complicated, and there are problems such as easy damage and high production cost. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome at least one of the defects described in the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention provides a guide module, which aims to solve the problems of high cost and easy damage caused by the complex movement trajectory of the guide plate and the large number of driving parts when the air treatment device realizes multi-side air outlet state; the present invention also provides an air treatment device, including the guide module as described above.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the problem is:

[0006] A guide module comprises: two guide plates for being arranged on an air outlet end face of an air handling device, the air outlet end face being provided with an air outlet; a driving mechanism, the driving mechanism comprising: a first guide rail slidably engaged with one of the two guide plates; a second guide rail slidably engaged with the other of the two guide plates; a driving module, wherein, driven by the driving module, one of the two guide plates can slide along the first guide rail on the air outlet end face, and the other of the two guide plates can slide along the second guide rail on the air outlet end face, wherein the two guide plates can move away from each other to a first position to form a closure on the air outlet end face; and the two guide plates can move toward each other to a second position to form a plurality of air outlet gaps between the edges of the two guide plates and the air outlet end face; and the two guide plates approaching the second position can move synchronously relative to the air outlet to adjust the exposed area of ​​the air outlet; importantly, the two guide plates only need to slide on the air outlet end face, which simplifies the movement trajectory, is not easily damaged, and reduces the production cost compared to forward and backward movement and lifting movement.

[0007] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the air outlet end surface has a first direction inclined to the horizontal direction; the first guide rail has a first inclined section extending along the first direction, and the first inclined section is connected to a first vertical section extending along the vertical direction; the angle between the first inclined section and the first vertical section is an acute angle; the second guide rail has a second inclined section extending along the first direction, and the second inclined section is connected to a second vertical section extending along the vertical direction; the angle between the second inclined section and the second vertical section is an obtuse angle; wherein, driven by the driving module, one of the two guide plates can slide along the first inclined section, and the other of the two guide plates can slide along the second inclined section, so that the two guide plates approach or move away from each other along the first direction; and one of the two guide plates can slide along the first vertical section, and the other of the two guide plates can slide along the second vertical section, so that the two guide plates slide synchronously along the vertical direction; through the above scheme, the movement trajectory of the two guide plates is further simplified.

[0008] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the driving module includes: a slider, arranged between the first guide rail and the second guide rail; a first rod, having a first rotating end rotatably connected to the slider, and a first sliding end slidably arranged on the first guide rail, the first sliding end being connected to one of the two guide plates and driving the two guide plates to move synchronously; a second rod, having a second rotating end rotatably connected to the slider, and a second sliding end slidably arranged on the second guide rail, the second sliding end being connected to the other of the two guide plates and driving the other of the two guide plates to move synchronously; a driving member, used to drive the slider to perform vertical reciprocating motion relative to the air outlet end surface; wherein, under the drive of the slider, the first rod can slide along the first inclined section, and the second rod can slide along the second inclined section, so that the two guide plates approach or move away from each other along the first direction; and the first rod can slide along the first vertical section, and the second rod can slide along the second vertical section, so that the two guide plates slide synchronously along the vertical direction.

[0009] Wherein, driven by the slider, the first rod can slide along the first inclined section, and the second rod can slide along the second inclined section, so that the two guide plates are moved closer to or farther away from each other along the first direction; and the first rod can slide along the first vertical section, and the second rod can slide along the second vertical section, so that the two guide plates slide synchronously along the vertical direction; specifically,

[0010] The two guide plates can move away from each other along the first direction to a first position, at which time the two guide plates seal the air outlet end surface, so that the air treatment device is in a closed state;

[0011] Furthermore, the two deflectors can approach each other to a second position along the first direction, at which point the two deflectors partially block the air outlet, forming a plurality of air outlet gaps between the edges of the two deflectors and the air outlet end surface. The air treatment device is in a multi-side air outlet state, which can prevent a large amount of air from directly blowing onto the user, thereby improving the user experience.

[0012] Furthermore, the two guide plates approaching the second position can slide synchronously in the vertical direction to adjust the exposed area of ​​the air outlet; the larger the exposed area of ​​the air outlet, the greater the overall air output of the air treatment device; the smaller the exposed area of ​​the air outlet, the smaller the overall air output of the air treatment device; preferably, the two guide plates can move synchronously in the vertical direction to the third position, at which time the air outlet is fully opened, and the wind is basically blown out directly from the air outlet, so that the air treatment device can output air at maximum power.

[0013] Therefore, the present invention provides a guide module that uses a driving component to drive the slider to perform simple linear motion in the vertical direction, so as to drive the two guide plates to perform simple linear motion in the first direction or along the vertical direction within the air outlet end surface, thereby realizing a variety of air outlet states of the air treatment device. The movement form is very simple and not easy to be damaged, and the requirements for the number and design of driving components are reduced, thereby reducing R&D costs and manufacturing costs.

[0014] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the first rod has a first rotating end rotatably connected to the slider and a first sliding end slidably mounted on the first guide rail, the first sliding end being connected to one of the two guide plates and driving the synchronous movement of the two guide plates; the second rod has a second rotating end rotatably connected to the slider and a second sliding end slidably mounted on the second guide rail, the second sliding end being connected to the other of the two guide plates and driving the other of the two guide plates to move synchronously. By adopting the above solution, when the slider makes vertical movement, the first rotating end and the second rotating end rotate, the first sliding end slides along the first guide rail, and the second sliding end slides along the second guide rail, so as to realize multiple positions of the two guide plates. The structure is simple, the function is easy to realize, and the R&D cost and manufacturing cost are further reduced.

[0015] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a relief groove is provided at the connection between the slider and the first rotating end. When the first sliding end slides along the first inclined section, a first horizontal distance between the first rotating end and the first sliding end changes, but the length of the first rod does not change. By adopting this technical solution, the first rotating end can slide along the relief groove, thereby preventing interference between the first rotating end and the slider when the first horizontal distance changes.

[0016] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a third guide rail and a sliding member are provided between the first guide rail and the slider, the third guide rail extending in a vertical direction, the sliding member being slidably disposed on the third guide rail, and the first rod being connected to the sliding member; when the first rod slides along the first inclined section, the first rod rotates and slides relative to the sliding member, at which point the sliding member serves as a support point for the movement of the first rod; when the first rod slides along the first vertical section, the first rod moves synchronously with the sliding member, at which point the sliding member provides a guide for the movement of the first rod. By adopting the above technical solution, a guide and support function is provided for the movement of the first rod. More specifically, when the first rod slides along the first inclined section, the first rod remains in contact with the sliding member and slides and rotates relative to the sliding member, at which point the sliding member provides a lever fulcrum for the movement of the first rod, enabling the first rod to drive the deflector connected thereto to move in the first direction; when the first rod slides along the first vertical section, the sliding member also slides along the third guide rail, thereby providing support for the first rod.

[0017] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the drive member includes: a first gear; a first motor for driving the first gear; a first rack meshing with the first gear; the first rack being connected to the slider and driving the slider to move synchronously. By adopting this solution, the drive member has a simple structure and a small size, enabling miniaturization of the entire air treatment device. Furthermore, since only one first motor is provided, manufacturing costs are further reduced and energy consumption is also reduced, resulting in energy savings.

[0018] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a middle panel is further included, the middle panel being disposed on the air outlet end surface and being located between the two deflectors, with both deflectors partially overlapping the middle panel. By employing this technical solution, air leakage through the gap between the two deflectors is prevented, thereby further improving user comfort.

[0019] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the facing surfaces of the two guide plates are both inclined surfaces. By adopting the above solution, collision and interference between the two guide plates when they approach each other along the first direction can be avoided.

[0020] The present invention further provides an air treatment device, comprising a frame assembly, wherein the frame assembly is provided with an air outlet end surface, and the air outlet end surface is provided with an air outlet; and further comprising the air guide module as described above.

[0021] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the frame assembly includes a first frame, a second frame, and a middle frame, with the air outlet formed between the second frame and the middle frame. The air handling device further includes a transmission assembly. Under the action of the transmission assembly, when the two deflectors slide in a vertical direction, they can drive the first frame to slide synchronously, and the second frame can slide in a direction opposite to the sliding direction of the first frame. By adopting this technical solution, the size of the air outlet can be adjusted to achieve the effect of controlling the air output volume.

[0022] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the transmission assembly includes a second gear and two second racks; the two second racks are relatively meshed with the second gear and both extend in the vertical direction; one of the two second racks is connected to the first frame and drives the first frame to move synchronously; the other of the two second racks is connected to the second frame and drives the second frame to move synchronously. By adopting the above solution, the movement of the first frame will drive the movement of the second frame. Specifically, the two second racks will slide in opposite directions in the vertical direction, so that the first frame and the second frame are moved closer to or farther away from each other in the vertical direction. There is no need to set up an additional motor to control the upper frame and the lower frame, which further reduces manufacturing costs and energy consumption, achieving energy-saving effects.

[0036] See also Figures 1 to 5 The present invention discloses an air diversion module and an air treatment device 1 having the same. The air treatment device 1 may be an air conditioner, a drying device, a humidifier, an air purifier, etc. Specifically, in this embodiment, the air treatment device 1 is an air conditioner.

[0037] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, further, in this embodiment, the air treatment device 1 includes a frame assembly 11 and a fan assembly 15, the frame assembly 11 is provided with an air outlet end surface 13, the air outlet end surface 13 is provided with an air outlet 14, and the fan assembly 15 is connected to the air outlet 14.

[0038] See also Figure 5 More specifically, the frame assembly 11 includes a first frame 111, a second frame 112 and a middle frame 113. The middle frame 113 is arranged between the first frame 111 and the second frame 112 to form an air outlet end surface 13. An air outlet 14 is formed between the second frame 112 and the middle frame 113. The first frame 111 and the second frame 112 are movably arranged relative to the middle frame 113, so that the size of the air outlet 14 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the overall air outlet volume.

[0039] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the flow guide module includes: a driving mechanism 3 and two flow guide plates 2;

[0040] Two guide plates 2 are provided on the air outlet end surface 13 of the air handling device 1;

[0041] like Figure 6 As shown, the driving mechanism 3 includes: a first guide rail 31, which is slidably matched with one of the two guide plates 2; a second guide rail 32, which is slidably matched with the other of the two guide plates 2; a driving module, under the drive of which, one of the two guide plates 2 can slide along the first guide rail 31 on the air outlet end surface 13, and the other of the two guide plates 2 can slide along the second guide rail 32 on the air outlet end surface 13;

[0042] Among them, the two guide plates 2 can move away from each other to a first position to form a closure on the air outlet end surface 13; and the two guide plates 2 can move close to each other to a second position so that a plurality of air outlet gaps 16 are formed between the edges of the two guide plates 2 and the air outlet end surface 13; and the two guide plates 2 close to the second position can move synchronously relative to the air outlet 14 to adjust the exposed area of ​​the air outlet 14; importantly, the two guide plates 2 only need to slide on the air outlet end surface 13, which simplifies the movement trajectory compared to the forward and backward movement and the lifting movement, is not easy to be damaged, and reduces the production cost.

[0043] Furthermore, the air outlet end surface 13 has a first direction inclined relative to the horizontal direction; the first guide rail 31 has a first inclined section 311 extending along the first direction, the first inclined section 311 is connected to a first vertical section 312 extending along the vertical direction; the angle between the first inclined section 311 and the first vertical section 312 is an acute angle; the second guide rail 32 has a second inclined section 321 extending along the first direction, the second inclined section 321 is connected to a second vertical section 322 extending along the vertical direction; the angle between the second inclined section 321 and the second vertical section 322 is an obtuse angle;

[0044] Among them, driven by the driving module, one of the two guide plates 2 can slide along the first inclined section 311, and the other of the two guide plates 2 can slide along the second inclined section 321, so that the two guide plates 2 can move away from each other to the first position along the first direction, and the two guide plates 2 can approach each other to the second position along the first direction; and, one of the two guide plates 2 can slide along the first vertical section 312, and the other of the two guide plates 2 can slide along the second vertical section 322, so that the two guide plates 2 slide synchronously along the vertical direction; through the above scheme, the movement trajectory of the two guide plates 2 is further simplified.

[0045] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the trajectory of the first guide rail 31 and the trajectory of the second guide rail 32 may also be in other forms, as long as the two guide plates 2 can be brought closer to or farther away from each other at the air outlet end surface 13 .

[0046] Specifically, in this embodiment, the driving module includes: a slider 33, which is arranged between the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32; a first rod 34, which has a first rotating end 341 rotatably connected to the slider 33 and a first sliding end 342 slidably provided on the first guide rail 31, the first sliding end 342 is connected to one of the two guide plates 2 and drives the two guide plates 2 to move synchronously; a second rod 35, which has a second rotating end 351 rotatably connected to the slider 33 and a second sliding end 352 slidably provided on the second guide rail 32, the second sliding end 352 is connected to the other of the two guide plates 2 and drives the other of the two guide plates 2 to move synchronously; a driving member 38 is used to drive the slider 33 to perform vertical reciprocating motion relative to the air outlet end surface 13;

[0047] With this arrangement, when the slider 33 moves vertically, the first rotating end 341 and the second rotating end 351 rotate, the first sliding end 342 slides along the first guide rail 31, and the second sliding end 352 slides along the second guide rail 32, so as to achieve multiple positions of the two guide plates 2. This has a simple structure, is easy to implement, and further reduces R&D costs and manufacturing costs.

[0048] Driven by the slider 33, the first rod 34 can slide along the first inclined section 311, and the second rod 35 can slide along the second inclined section 321, so that the two guide plates 2 move closer to or farther from each other along the first direction; and the first rod 34 can slide along the first vertical section 312, and the second rod 35 can slide along the second vertical section 322, so that the two guide plates 2 slide synchronously along the vertical direction.

[0049] More specifically, see Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 6 , the two guide plates 2 can move away from each other along the first direction to a first position, at which time the two guide plates 2 close the air outlet end surface 13, so that the air treatment device 1 is in a closed state;

[0050] Specifically, see Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the two guide plates 2 can approach each other to the second position along the first direction, at which time the two guide plates 2 partially block the air outlet 14, and multiple air outlet gaps are formed between the edges of the two guide plates 2 and the air outlet end surface 13. The air treatment device 1 is in a multi-side air outlet state, which can prevent a large amount of air from directly blowing on the user, thereby improving the user experience;

[0051] Specifically, see Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 8 Preferably, the two guide plates 2 close to the second position can move synchronously in the vertical direction to the third position. At this time, the two guide plates 2 no longer block the air outlet 14, the air outlet 14 is fully opened, and the wind is basically blown out directly from the air outlet 14, so that the air treatment device 1 is in a large air volume outlet state.

[0052] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, when the two guide plates 2 move in the vertical direction, the area of ​​the portion used to block the air outlet 14 can be adjusted; when the area of ​​the portion of the two guide plates 2 used to block the air outlet 14 is smaller, the air intake of the first air outlet channel is smaller, and the air output through the air outlet gap 16 is also relatively small; when the area of ​​the portion of the two guide plates 2 used to block the air outlet 14 is larger, the air intake of the first air outlet channel is larger, and the air output through the air outlet gap 16 is also relatively large; through such a setting, the air treatment device 1 can have multiple air outlet states.

[0053] Therefore, the present invention provides a guide module that uses a driving component to drive the slider to perform simple linear motion in the vertical direction, so as to drive the two guide plates to perform simple linear motion in the first direction or the vertical direction within the air outlet end surface, thereby realizing a variety of air outlet states of the air treatment device. The movement form is very simple and not easy to be damaged, and the requirements for the number and design of driving components are reduced, thereby greatly reducing R&D costs and manufacturing costs.

[0054] Preferably, in this embodiment, the two guide plates 2 are both triangular-plate shaped, and the facing surfaces of the two guide plates 2 are both inclined surfaces. This arrangement can avoid collision and interference between the two guide plates 2 when they approach each other along the first direction.

[0055] Preferably, if Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment, the air guide module also includes a middle panel 5, which is arranged on the air outlet end surface 13 and is located between the two guide plates 2, and the two guide plates 2 partially overlap with the middle panel 5 to block the gap between the two guide plates 2. By such an arrangement, wind is prevented from leaking from the gap between the two guide plates 2 to further improve the user's comfort. Specifically, in this embodiment, the two guide plates 2 can slide relative to the middle panel 5; and the middle panel 5 is fixedly connected to the first frame 111 and can move synchronously with the first frame 111 to fully open the air outlet 14.

[0056] See also Figure 5 Preferably, the first sliding end 342 is connected to the corresponding guide plate 2 through the connecting member 4, and the second sliding end 352 is connected to the corresponding guide plate 2 through the connecting member 4 to improve the connection stability.

[0057] Furthermore, if Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, a relief groove 331 is provided at the connection between the slider 33 and the first rotating end 341. When the first sliding end 342 slides along the first inclined section 311, the first horizontal distance between the first rotating end 341 and the first sliding end 342 changes, but the length of the first rod 34 itself does not change. This configuration allows the first rotating end 341 to slide along the relief groove 331, preventing interference between the first rotating end 341 and the slider 33 when the first horizontal distance changes. It should be noted that in some embodiments, a relief groove 331 may also be provided at the connection between the slider 33 and the second rotating end 351.

[0058] See also Figure 6 Preferably, in this embodiment, a third guide rail 36 and a sliding member 37 are disposed between the first guide rail 31 and the slider 33. The third guide rail 36 extends vertically, the sliding member 37 is slidably mounted on the third guide rail 36, and the first rod 34 is rotationally and slidably connected to the sliding member 37. Because the angle between the first inclined section 311 and the first vertical section 312 is acute, the movement trajectory of the first rod 34 changes significantly when it transitions from sliding along the first vertical section 312 to sliding along the first inclined section 311. This arrangement provides guidance and support for the movement of the first rod 34.

[0059] More specifically, when the first rod 34 slides along the first inclined section 311, the first rod 34 remains in contact with the sliding member 37, and slides and rotates relative to the sliding member 37. At this time, the sliding member 37 provides a lever fulcrum for the movement of the first rod 34, so that the first rod 34 can drive the guide plate 2 connected thereto to move in the first direction; when the first rod 34 slides along the first vertical section 312, the sliding member 37 will also slide along the third guide rail 36 to provide support for the first rod 34.

[0060] See also Figure 7 Preferably, in this embodiment, the driving member 38 includes a first gear 381, a first motor 383, and a first rack 382. The first motor 383 is used to drive the first gear 381 to rotate. The first rack 382 is meshed with the first gear 381. The first rack 382 is connected to the slider 33 and can drive the slider 33 to move synchronously. This arrangement converts the rotation of the first gear 381 into linear motion of the first rack 382, ​​which in turn drives the slider 33 to move linearly. This makes the driving member 38 simple in structure and compact in size, thereby miniaturizing the entire air treatment device 1. Furthermore, since only one first motor 383 is provided, manufacturing costs are further reduced and energy consumption is also reduced, thereby achieving energy conservation.

[0061] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, preferably, in this embodiment, the driving mechanism 3 also includes a mounting base 39 for being assembled on the air treatment device 1, and the mounting base 39 is provided with a sliding cavity, and the first rack 382 is slidably arranged in the sliding cavity, and the first gear 381 and the first motor 383 are also accommodated in the second accommodating cavity, and the first gear 381 is connected to the output end of the second motor. In this arrangement, the first gear 381, the first motor 383 and the first rack 382 are reasonably arranged in the mounting base 39, so that the overall structure of the driving mechanism 3 is compact and exquisite, and the stability of the movement is improved.

[0062] Furthermore, if Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the air treatment device 1 further includes a transmission assembly 12. Under the action of the transmission assembly 12, when the two guide plates 2 slide in the vertical direction, they can abut against the first frame 111 and drive the first frame 111 to slide synchronously, and the second frame 112 can slide in a direction opposite to the sliding direction of the first frame 111. By adopting the above technical solution, the size of the air outlet 14 between the middle frame 113 and the second frame 112 can be adjusted to achieve the effect of controlling the overall air output of the air treatment device 1.

[0063] Specifically, the transmission assembly 12 includes a second gear and two second racks 121; the two second racks 121 are relatively meshed with the second gear and both extend in the vertical direction; one of the two second racks 121 is connected to the first frame 111 and can drive the first frame 111 to move synchronously; the other of the two second racks 121 is connected to the second frame 112 and can drive the second frame 112 to move synchronously. Through this arrangement, the movement of the first frame 111 will drive the movement of the second frame 112. Specifically, under the action of the second gear, the two second racks 121 will slide in opposite directions in the vertical direction, thereby causing the first frame 111 and the second frame 112 to move closer to or farther away from each other in the vertical direction. There is no need to set up an additional motor to control the upper and lower frames, which further reduces R&D and manufacturing costs, and can also reduce energy consumption, achieving an energy-saving effect.

[0064] Preferably, the transmission assembly 12 also includes a fixed block 122 for assembly on the air treatment device 1, the fixed block 122 is provided with an installation cavity, the second gear is rotatably arranged in the installation cavity, and the two second racks 121 are slidably arranged in the installation cavity, so that the overall structure is compact and exquisite and the transmission stability is improved.

[0065] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the transmission assembly 12 may also be a screw-nut mechanism, a telescopic rod mechanism, etc., which is not specifically limited here.

[0066] like Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, further, in this embodiment, the driving mechanism 3 is provided with two, that is, the slider 33 is provided with two;

[0067] A first guide rail 31 and a first rod 34 corresponding to the first guide rail 31 are provided on the right side of the left slider 33, and two second guide rails 32 and two second rods 35 corresponding to the two second guide rails 32 are provided on the left side.

[0068] The right side of the right slider 33 is provided with two first guide rails 31 and two first rods 34 corresponding to the two first guide rails 31 . The left side of the other slider 33 is provided with a second guide rail 32 and a second rod 35 corresponding to the second guide rail 32 .

[0069] In this arrangement, a total of three first rods 34 and three second rods 35 are provided. The three first sliding ends 342 of the three first rods 34 form a stable triangle and are simultaneously connected to one of the two guide plates 2; the three second sliding ends 352 of the three second rods 35 also form a stable triangle and are simultaneously connected to the other of the two guide plates 2; this arrangement can better support the two guide plates 2 and improve the movement stability of the two guide plates 2.

[0070] In summary, the air guide module and air treatment device disclosed in the present invention can at least bring the following beneficial effects:

[0071] 1) The two guide plates 2 only need to slide on the air outlet end surface 13 to achieve the multi-side air outlet state of the air treatment device 1, which simplifies the movement trajectory, is not easy to be damaged, and reduces production costs;

[0072] 2) By using a single driving member 38 to drive the slider 33 to perform simple linear motion in the vertical direction, thereby driving the two guide plates 2 to perform simple linear motion in the first direction or in the vertical direction within the surface of the air outlet end 13, a variety of air outlet states of the air treatment device 1 can be achieved. The motion form is very simple, not easily damaged, and easy to implement, which reduces the number and design requirements of the driving members 38, and greatly reduces R&D costs and manufacturing costs;

[0073] 3) The first rotating end 341 can slide along the avoidance groove 331 to avoid interference between the first rotating end 341 and the slider 33 when the first horizontal distance between the first rotating end 341 and the first sliding end 342 changes;

[0074] 4) The sliding member 37 is slidably mounted on the third guide rail 36 , and the first rod 34 is rotatably and slidably connected to the sliding member 37 , providing guidance and support for the movement of the first rod 34 ;

[0075] 5) The rotation of the first gear 381 is converted into the linear motion of the first rack 382, ​​making the overall structure of the driving member 38 simple and compact, thereby miniaturizing the entire air treatment device 1; and since only one first motor 383 is provided, the production cost is greatly reduced;

[0076] 6) Under the action of the second gear, the two second racks 121 will slide in opposite directions in the vertical direction, so that the first frame 111 and the second frame 112 are moved closer to or farther away from each other in the vertical direction. There is no need to set up an additional motor to control the upper frame and the lower frame, which further reduces the R&D cost and manufacturing cost, and can also reduce energy consumption, thereby achieving an energy-saving effect.

[0077] The technical means disclosed in the solutions of the present invention are not limited to those disclosed in the above-mentioned embodiments, but also include technical solutions composed of any combination of the above-mentioned technical features. It should be noted that those skilled in the art may make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of the present invention, and such improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
