In addition, the terms "first", "second" are only for the purpose of description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first", "second" can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present application, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more, unless otherwise specifically limited.

[0035] Some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following examples and features in the examples can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0036] The present application provides an air outlet adjusting device, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 The air outlet adjusting device includes a panel assembly, a frame assembly 1 and a driving assembly 3. The panel assembly includes a first panel 21, a second panel 22 and a middle panel 23, the frame assembly 1 is provided with an air outlet 11 on one side, and the panel assembly is movably installed on the side of the frame assembly 1 provided with the air outlet 11 by the driving assembly 3. The driving assembly 3 includes two movement processes, the first movement makes the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 move away from or close to each other, and the second movement makes the panel assembly move in a synchronous vertical direction displacement movement. This air outlet adjusting device can obtain different air outlet modes by adjusting the different movement modes of the panel assembly, meet the different needs of users in different occasions and environments, so as to be able to adjust the different air supply angles on different areas, ensure the user's multiple comfort requirements of air conditioner, and bring better body comfort to the user.

[0037] The panel assembly and the frame assembly 1 in the embodiment are used to form an air conditioning cabin accommodating a heat exchange coil and a fan. The panel assembly can include a first panel 21, a second panel 22, and a middle panel 23 between the first panel 21 and the second panel 22. The frame assembly 1 can include a first frame, a second frame, and a middle frame between the first frame and the second frame. The first panel 21 is arranged below the second panel 22. The air outlet adjusting device provided by the embodiment is described. It should be noted that the frame assembly 1 is provided with an air outlet 11 close to the panel assembly. When the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 are away from each other to a first position, the large overall panel formed by the first panel 21, the second panel 22, and the middle panel 23 can completely block the air outlet 11. It should be noted that the panel assembly can be provided with a slide rail structure, so that the middle panel 23 is movably installed between the first panel 21 and the second panel 22, that is, the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 are away from or close to each other with the middle panel 23 as a reference. Further, the middle panel 23 is arranged on the side of the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 close to the frame assembly 1, that is, in the embodiment, the middle panel 23 is located on the rear side of the first panel 21 and the second panel 22. It can be understood that when the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 are close to each other to a second position, the middle panel 23 located on the rear side of the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 does not interfere with the close movement of the first panel 21 and the second panel 22. When the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 are close to each other, the middle panel 23 can be hidden on the rear side of the first panel 21 and the second panel 22, so that the user cannot see the middle panel 23, and the overall appearance can be improved.

[0038] Please refer to Figures 2 to 4 The air outlet adjusting device has at least three air outlet modes, which can be understood as follows:

[0039] The first mode: when the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 are away from each other to the first position, the large overall panel formed by the first panel 21, the second panel 22, and the middle panel 23 completely blocks the air outlet 11 in the frame assembly 1 to perform air outlet, so as to realize the air duct closing function.

[0040] The second mode: the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 are close to each other to the second position through the first movement process of the driving assembly 3. The frame assembly 1 and the panel assembly are arranged at intervals. The panel assembly is arranged to form an annular air duct around the panel assembly. The air outlet 11 in the frame assembly 1 performs air outlet through the annular air duct, so as to realize the annular air duct air outlet function. The innovative four-sided annular air duct can send air from the upper, lower, left, and right sides, so that the user has a body feeling of no wind, and the cold air can continuously penetrate, so as to improve the user experience.

[0041] The third mode is based on the second mode. The driving assembly 3 performs a second motion process, so that the panel assembly performs a synchronous vertical displacement motion. In this embodiment, the panel assembly synchronously moves upward, so that the lower air outlet of the annular air duct is widened, the air outlet 11 is exposed to the lower air outlet, the air volume is further increased, and the large-annular-air-duct air outlet function is realized.

[0042] It should be noted that the "first position" refers to a position where the first panel 21, the second panel 22, and the middle panel 23 form a large overall panel, and the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 are away from the middle panel 23. The "second position" refers to a position where the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 are close to each other and are attached to each other. The air outlet adjusting device can also switch between the first mode, the second mode, and the third mode through the driving assembly 3.

[0043] In addition, in this embodiment, the facing surfaces of the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 are respectively the first facing surface and the second facing surface. When the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 are close to each other, the air outlet adjusting device is converted into the second mode to perform air outlet, that is, annular air duct air outlet. At this time, the first facing surface of the first panel 21 and the second facing surface of the second panel 22 abut each other, so that the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 can be moved close to each other to the closest distance, so that the annular air duct formed in the second mode is the largest, that is, the air volume is larger.

[0044] Further, the first facing surface and the second facing surface are both inclined surfaces. Since the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 will be away from or close to each other along the diagonal line of the frame assembly 1, the first facing surface and the second facing surface are inclined surfaces, which can well adapt to the design of the movement of the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 along the diagonal line, and avoid interference between the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 during synchronous movement. Of course, in some other embodiments, the first facing surface and the second facing surface are both sawtooth surfaces. When the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 are close to each other to the second position, the first facing surface and the second facing surface abut each other, and the sawtooth surfaces of the first facing surface and the second facing surface abut each other. Since a part of the airflow will impact the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 during air supply, the sawtooth abutting structure can to some extent strengthen the strength of the first panel 21 and the second panel 22, and prolong the service life.

[0045] The parts of the driving assembly 3 provided in the embodiments of the application will be described in detail below.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 8The driving assembly 3 of the embodiment of the present application comprises a driving motor 31 and a first transmission assembly. The first transmission assembly comprises a first cam 321 and a second cam 322, and the driving motor 31 is in transmission connection with the first cam 321 and the second cam 322. As shown in Figure 8 , the first cam 321 is provided with a closed curve sliding rail 3211, and of course, the second cam 322 is also provided with the same curve sliding rail 3211. The driving assembly 3 further comprises a horizontally arranged first push rod 341 and a second push rod 342. The first connecting end of the first push rod 341 is slidably installed on the curve sliding rail 3211 of the first cam 321, and the second connecting end of the second push rod 342 is slidably installed on the curve sliding rail 3211 of the second cam 322. For example, when the second mode is performed, i.e., the driving motor 31 drives the first section to move, the first cam 321 and the second cam 322 rotate, and the first connecting end and the second connecting end make closed curve movement on the curve sliding rail 3211, thereby driving the first push rod 341 and the second push rod 342 to move close to each other.

[0047] Further, referring to Figure 5 , the driving assembly 3 further comprises a first limiting piece 3411 and a second limiting piece 3421. The first limiting piece 3411 cooperates with the first push rod 341 to limit the vertical direction displacement of the first push rod 341, and the second limiting piece 3421 cooperates with the second push rod 342 to limit the vertical direction displacement of the second push rod 342. Therefore, the stable displacement movement of the first push rod 341 and the second push rod 342 in the horizontal direction can be ensured.

[0048] Referring to Figure 5 , the driving assembly 3 further comprises a first sliding groove 351 and a second sliding groove 352 arranged vertically. The first sliding groove 351 is connected to the third connecting end of the first push rod 341, and the second sliding groove 352 is connected to the fourth connecting end of the second push rod 342. It should be noted that the first sliding groove 351 can be integrally formed with the first push rod 341, or the first sliding groove 351 can be separately formed with the first push rod 341 and then assembled by welding or fastening connection, which is not limited in the present application. The second sliding groove 352 is assembled with the second push rod 342 as described above, and will not be described here.

[0049] It should be noted that in the present embodiment, the first connecting end and the third connecting end are respectively located at the right end and the left end of the first push rod 341, and the second connecting end and the fourth connecting end are respectively located at the left end and the right end of the second push rod 342.

[0050] Referring to Figure 5The driving assembly 3 of the embodiment further comprises a second transmission assembly. The second transmission assembly comprises a gear (not shown in the figure) and a rack 33, and the driving motor 31 is in transmission connection with the rack 33 through the gear. For example, when the third mode is performed, i.e. the driving motor 31 drives the second section to move, the driving motor 31 can drive the rack 33 to move upward in the vertical direction through the gear. Further, please refer to Figure 5 The driving assembly 3 further comprises a rack limiting member 331, which cooperates with the rack 33 to limit the horizontal displacement of the rack 33. In this way, the stable displacement of the rack 33 in the vertical direction can be ensured.

[0051] It should be noted that the driving assembly 3 of the embodiment further comprises an inclined sliding groove assembly 36, which comprises a first connecting rod 361 and a second connecting rod 362 arranged vertically, and further comprises at least two inclined sliding grooves 363 arranged obliquely in the vertical plane, and the two ends of the inclined sliding grooves 363 are connected with the first connecting rod 361 and the second connecting rod 362 respectively. As shown in Figure 5 In the embodiment, the two parallel arranged inclined sliding grooves 363 and the vertically arranged first connecting rod 361 and second connecting rod 362 form a parallelogram structure, which strengthens the overall strength of the inclined sliding groove assembly 36. It should be noted that the first connecting rod 361 and the second connecting rod 362 of the inclined sliding grooves 363 can be separately formed or integrally formed, which is not limited in the present application.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 2 The uppermost inclined sliding groove 363 of the inclined sliding groove assembly 36 of the embodiment is provided with an abutting structure 367 for abutting with the rack 33 of the second transmission assembly. When the air outlet adjusting device performs the third mode, the rack 33 and the abutting structure 367 cooperate with each other at this time. Therefore, the driving motor 31 drives the rack 33 to move upward in the vertical direction through the gear, and further drives the inclined sliding groove assembly 36 provided with the abutting structure 367 to move upward in the vertical direction synchronously. Further, please refer to Figure 5 The driving assembly 3 further comprises a third limiting member 365 and a fourth limiting member 366, the third limiting member 365 cooperates with the first connecting rod 361 to limit the horizontal displacement of the first connecting rod 361, and the fourth limiting member 366 cooperates with the second connecting rod 362 to limit the horizontal displacement of the second connecting rod 362. In this way, the stable displacement of the inclined sliding grooves 363 in the vertical direction can be ensured.

[0053] It should be noted that the first connecting rod 361 and / or the second connecting rod 362 of the embodiment is provided with at least one anti-skid protrusion 364, which cooperates with the third limiting piece 365 and / or the fourth limiting piece 366 to ensure the structural stability of the inclined sliding groove assembly 36 in the initial state. As shown in the drawings, in this embodiment, the first connecting rod 361 is provided with one anti-skid protrusion 364, so that the air outlet adjusting device avoids the inclined sliding groove assembly 36 from sliding and mispositioning without obstruction when working in the first and second modes, and the inclined sliding groove assembly 36 can remain stable. The number of the anti-skid protrusion 364 is not limited in the application, as long as it can achieve the above-mentioned effect. Figure 5

[0054] Please refer to Figures 5 to 7 The driving assembly 3 of the embodiment further includes a first slider assembly and a second slider assembly. The first slider assembly includes a plurality of first sliders 211 arranged vertically and corresponding in number to the inclined sliding grooves 363, and the second slider assembly includes a plurality of second sliders 221 arranged vertically and corresponding in number to the inclined sliding grooves 363. The first slider assembly and the second slider assembly are fixedly installed on the side of the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 close to the frame assembly 1. Moreover, the first slider assembly is movably installed in the inclined sliding grooves 363 and the first sliding grooves 351 in sequence, and the second slider assembly is movably installed in the inclined sliding grooves 363 and the second sliding grooves 352 in sequence. Therefore, through the sliding of the first slider assembly in the first sliding grooves 351 and the inclined sliding grooves 363 and the sliding of the second slider assembly in the second sliding grooves 352 and the inclined sliding grooves 363, the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 can be driven to move differently.

[0055] Based on the above-mentioned scheme, the driving assembly 3 can realize two-stage movement processes. The first-stage movement makes the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 move away from or close to each other, and the second-stage movement makes the panel assembly move in a synchronous vertical direction displacement movement.

[0056] For example, in the above-mentioned three air outlet modes, please refer to ​ The specific working process is as follows:

[0057] In the first mode, the driving motor 31 is not started and is in a static state.

[0058] In the second mode, the driving motor 31 is started, driving the first cam 321 and the second cam 322 connected in transmission to rotate, and driving the rack 33 to move vertically upward through the gear, and the first connecting end and the second connecting end move in a variable-diameter track in the curved sliding rail 3211, thereby driving the first push rod 341 and the second push rod 342 to move close to each other. At this time, the inclined sliding groove assembly 36 is fixed and does not move, and the first slider assembly and the second slider assembly start to move towards each other in the inclined sliding groove assembly 36, i.e., driving the first panel 21 and the second panel 22 to move close to each other.​

[0059] The third mode is based on the second mode, when the first cam 321 and the second cam 322 continue to rotate, the first connecting end and the second connecting end make constant radius curve motion on the curved slide rail 3211, at this time, the first push rod 341 and the second push rod 342 remain stationary, and the rack 33 is in abutting connection with the abutting structure 367 of the inclined slide groove 363, the rack 33 continues to move vertically upward, thereby driving the inclined slide groove assembly 36 to move vertically upward synchronously, and the first slide block assembly and the second slide block assembly start to move vertically upward in the first slide groove 351 and the second slide groove 352 respectively, that is, the panel assembly is driven to move vertically upward synchronously.

[0060] The air conditioner provided by the embodiment of the present application comprises the air outlet adjusting device, and the panel assembly is controlled by the driving assembly 3 to move in different modes to obtain different air outlet modes in the process of air outlet of the air conditioner, so that the singleness of the air outlet structure is avoided, the single air outlet mode is effectively solved, the air supply mode demand of the user in different occasions and different time periods is well met, and the use experience of the user is improved.
