Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of air vents, and more specifically to air vent assemblies and vehicles. Background Technology
[0002] Car air conditioning is an important part of a car. To meet the airflow requirements of drivers or passengers of different heights, body types, and habits, the air vent assembly of the car air conditioning can adjust the airflow direction.
[0003] The air outlet assembly has two air outlet channels with different air outlet directions. The air outlet assembly adjusts the air volume of the two air channels by rotating an air guide element. This structure means that no matter how the air guide element rotates, it can only close one air outlet channel at most, and cannot achieve the function of closing both air outlet channels at the same time. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention proposes an air outlet assembly and a vehicle.
[0005] The technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows:
[0006] An air outlet assembly includes an outer shell, an inner shell, an airflow direction adjustment mechanism, a transmission mechanism, and a drive mechanism.
[0007] The inner shell is disposed within the outer shell and separates the air duct space inside the outer shell. The air duct space includes a first air outlet channel, a second air outlet channel, and an air inlet channel.
[0008] The wind direction adjustment mechanism is movably disposed in the air inlet channel. The wind direction adjustment mechanism includes a wind guide plate and a wind baffle plate, which are driven and cooperated by the transmission mechanism.
[0009] The movement area of the air guide plate includes a connected air adjustment area and a linkage area;
[0010] The transmission mechanism includes:
[0011] A first transmission component is disposed on the air guide plate and rotates synchronously with the air guide plate. The first transmission component has a first mating part.
[0012] The second transmission component is disposed on the wind baffle plate and rotates synchronously with the wind baffle plate. The second transmission component has a second mating part.
[0013] The third transmission component is rotatably mounted on the outer casing. The third transmission component has an arc-shaped groove, a first sliding groove, and a second sliding groove. One end of the arc-shaped groove is connected to the first sliding groove. The first mating part of the first transmission component can move in the arc-shaped groove and the first sliding groove. The second mating part of the second transmission component can move in the second sliding groove. When the third transmission component rotates, it can drive the windbreak plate to rotate through the cooperation of the second sliding groove and the second mating part.
[0014] When the air guide plate moves in the air conditioning zone, the first mating part moves in the arc-shaped groove, the third transmission component and the second transmission component remain stationary, the position of the air baffle plate remains unchanged and does not obstruct air from entering the first air outlet channel, and the airflow ratio between the first air outlet channel and the second air outlet channel is adjusted according to the position of the air guide plate.
[0015] When the air guide plate moves in the linkage area, the first mating part moves in the first slide groove. The first mating part can drive the third transmission component to rotate. The position of the baffle plate changes according to the position of the air guide plate. The second air outlet channel is always closed by the air guide plate. The opening and closing degree of the first air outlet channel is adjusted according to the position of the baffle plate.
[0016] The driving mechanism is used to drive the air guide plate or the first transmission component to move and control the position of the air guide plate or the first transmission component.
[0017] The air outlet assembly can control the air intake ratio of the first and second air outlet channels by rotating the air guide plate, thus achieving the function of a traditional air outlet assembly. With the additional baffle plate, the first air outlet channel can be closed when needed. In conjunction with the air guide plate, both air outlet channels can be completely closed, meaning that neither air outlet channel of the air outlet assembly can emit air without turning off the air conditioner.
[0018] The air guide plate and the air baffle are driven by a transmission structure. Due to the presence of the arc-shaped groove, when the air guide plate moves in the air conditioning area, the first mating part moves in the arc-shaped groove, while the third transmission component remains stationary (the axis corresponding to the arc-shaped groove coincides with the rotation axis of the first transmission component). That is, the second transmission component and the air baffle are stationary. When the air guide plate moves in the linkage area, the first mating part is located in the first sliding groove. When the air guide plate moves, the first mating part can drive the third transmission component to rotate. When the third transmission component rotates, it can drive the air baffle to rotate through the cooperation of the second sliding groove and the second mating part.
[0019] In practical applications, the air guide plate controls the air intake ratio of the first and second air outlet channels, including situations where the air intake ratio of the first and second air outlet channels is 0. It should be noted that the air intake volume of 0 mentioned in this application is actually a general term and is not limited to an absolute 0, because due to the existence of processing errors, gaps, etc., a small amount of air may pass through.
[0020] In practical applications, when the first air outlet channel is the upper air outlet channel, the second air outlet channel is the lower air outlet channel; when the first air outlet channel is the lower air outlet channel, the second air outlet channel is the upper air outlet channel; when the first air outlet channel is the left air outlet channel, the second air outlet channel is the right air outlet channel; and when the first air outlet channel is the right air outlet channel, the second air outlet channel is the left air outlet channel.
[0021] In practical applications, the drive mechanism can be an electrical component such as a motor, or a manually controlled lever.
[0022] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first slide and the second slide are the same slide.
[0023] In one embodiment of the present invention, the baffle plate has an initial position and a working position. When the air guide plate moves in the air adjustment area, the baffle plate is always in the initial position and the baffle plate is in a retracted state. The baffle plate does not obstruct the air intake of the first air outlet channel. When the baffle plate is in the working position, the baffle plate closes the first air outlet channel.
[0024] When the air guide plate moves from the starting position toward the direction of air adjustment in the linkage area, the air baffle moves from the working position toward the initial position.
[0025] In one embodiment of the present invention, when the air guide plate moves in one direction in the air guiding area, it has a first working position, an intermediate working position and a second working position arranged in sequence.
[0026] When the air guide plate is in the first working position, it closes the first air outlet channel; when the air guide plate is in the middle working position, the air intake ratio of the first air outlet channel and the second air outlet channel is the same; when the air guide plate is in the second working position, it closes the second air outlet channel.
[0027] In one embodiment of the present invention, the rotation axes of the air guide plate and the air baffle plate coincide, the air guide plate and the air baffle plate are in contact or clearance fit, and the air baffle plate and the air guide plate form an air guiding surface.
[0028] In practical applications, of the two components, the air guide plate and the air baffle plate, one component has a columnar portion, and the axis corresponding to the columnar portion is the rotation axis of that component. The other component has an arc-shaped surface that fits the outer surface of the columnar portion. This arrangement ensures that the two plates can rotate relative to each other without interference and guarantees a proper fit, effectively preventing air from passing between them.
[0029] The air guide plate also has a third working position located between the second working position and the starting position. When the air guide plate is in the third working position, it is located in the middle of the clearance groove. The free end of the baffle plate moves towards the side wall of the outer shell. The baffle plate blocks the air intake of the first channel, but air still passes through the space between the baffle plate and the outer shell.
[0030] In one embodiment of the present invention, the end of the inner shell facing the air inlet channel is a tapered pointed structure, the pointed structure includes an inclined sidewall, and when the air baffle is in the initial position, the air baffle is in contact with or clearance fit with the inclined sidewall.
[0031] This setup effectively prevents the air baffle from affecting the airflow entering the first channel when it is not in operation.
[0032] In one embodiment of the present invention, the inner wall of the outer shell has an avoidance groove corresponding to the linkage area; when the air guide plate moves in the linkage area, the end of the air guide plate enters the avoidance groove, and the surface shape of the avoidance groove is adapted to the shape of the trajectory surface generated by the end of the air guide plate.
[0033] In one embodiment of the present invention, the outer shell has a blocking surface on one side of the first channel. When the air guide plate is in the starting position of the linkage area, the air baffle plate is in contact with the side wall of the avoidance groove, and the air baffle plate is in contact with the blocking surface.
[0034] In one embodiment of the present invention, the drive mechanism includes a motor assembly.
[0035] In practical applications, the motor assembly may include the motor and the connector. The connector can be configured in various ways, such as by snapping it into the air guide plate, snapping it into the output shaft of the motor, or connecting it via a spline.
[0036] This application also discloses a vehicle including the air vent assembly described above.
[0037] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: the air outlet assembly can control the air intake ratio of the first air outlet channel and the second air outlet channel by rotating the air guide plate, and can realize the function of the traditional air outlet assembly; the additionally set air baffle can close the first air outlet channel when needed, and with the air guide plate, it can realize the function of completely closing the two air outlet channels, that is, without turning off the air conditioner, the two air outlet channels of the air outlet assembly can be kept from emitting air.

[0060] like Figures 1-16 As shown, an air outlet assembly includes an outer shell 1, an inner shell 2, an airflow direction adjustment mechanism, a transmission mechanism, and a drive mechanism 5.
[0061] The inner shell 2 is located in the outer shell 1 and separates the air duct space inside the outer shell 1. The air duct space includes a first air outlet duct 13, a second air outlet duct 14 and an air inlet duct 11.
[0062] The wind direction adjustment mechanism is movably installed in the air inlet channel 11. The wind direction adjustment mechanism includes a wind guide plate 3 and a wind baffle plate 4, which are driven and cooperated by a transmission mechanism.
[0063] The movement area of the air guide plate 3 includes the connected air adjustment area and the linkage area (see...). Figure 6 );
[0064] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 14, 15, and 16, the transmission mechanism includes:
[0065] The first transmission component 61 is disposed on the air guide plate 3 and rotates synchronously with the air guide plate 3. The first transmission component 61 has a first mating part 611.
[0066] The second transmission component 62 is disposed on the wind baffle plate 4 and rotates synchronously with the wind baffle plate 4. The second transmission component 62 has a second mating part 621.
[0067] The third transmission component 63 is rotatably mounted on the outer casing 1. The third transmission component 63 has an arc-shaped groove 631, a first sliding groove 632, and a second sliding groove 633. One end of the arc-shaped groove 631 is connected to the first sliding groove 632. The first mating part 611 of the first transmission component 61 can move in the arc-shaped groove 631 and the first sliding groove 632. The second mating part 621 of the second transmission component 62 can move in the second sliding groove 633. When the third transmission component 63 rotates, it can drive the wind baffle 4 to rotate through the cooperation of the second sliding groove 633 and the second mating part 621.
[0068] When the air guide plate 3 moves in the air conditioning area, the first mating part 611 moves in the arc-shaped groove 631, the third transmission member 63 and the second transmission member 62 remain stationary, the position of the air baffle plate 4 remains unchanged and does not obstruct air from entering the first air outlet channel 13, and the airflow ratio between the first air outlet channel 13 and the second air outlet channel 14 is adjusted according to the position of the air guide plate 3.
[0069] When the air guide plate 3 moves in the linkage area, the first mating part 611 moves in the first slide groove 632. The first mating part 611 can drive the third transmission component 63 to rotate. The position of the baffle plate 4 changes according to the position of the air guide plate 3. The second air outlet channel 14 is always closed by the air guide plate 3. The opening and closing degree of the first air outlet channel 13 is adjusted according to the position of the baffle plate 4.
[0070] The drive mechanism 5 is used to drive the air guide plate 3 or the first transmission component 61 to move and control the position of the air guide plate 3 or the first transmission component 61.
[0071] The air outlet assembly can control the air intake ratio of the first air outlet channel 13 and the second air outlet channel 14 by rotating the air guide plate 3, thus achieving the function of a traditional air outlet assembly. The additionally set air baffle plate 4 can close the first air outlet channel 13 when needed. In conjunction with the air guide plate 3, it can achieve the function of completely closing both air outlet channels, that is, without turning off the air conditioner, both air outlet channels of the air outlet assembly can be kept from emitting air.
[0072] The air guide plate 3 and the air baffle plate 4 are driven by the transmission structure 6. Due to the presence of the arc-shaped groove 631, when the air guide plate 3 moves in the air conditioning area, the first mating part 611 moves in the arc-shaped groove 631, and the third transmission member 63 remains stationary (the axis corresponding to the arc-shaped groove 631 coincides with the rotation axis of the first transmission member 61). That is, the second transmission member 62 and the air baffle plate 4 are stationary. When the air guide plate 3 moves in the linkage area, the first mating part 611 is located in the first sliding groove 632. When the air guide plate 3 moves, the first mating part 611 can drive the third transmission member 63 to rotate. When the third transmission member 63 rotates, it can drive the air baffle plate 4 to rotate through the cooperation of the second sliding groove 633 and the second mating part 621.
[0073] In practical application, the air guide plate 3 controls the air intake ratio of the first air outlet channel 13 and the second air outlet channel 14, including situations where the air intake ratio of the first air outlet channel 13 and the second air outlet channel 14 are both 0. It should be noted that the air intake volume of 0 mentioned in this application is actually a general term and is not limited to an absolute 0, because due to the existence of processing errors, gaps, etc., a small amount of air may pass through.
[0074] In practical application, when the first air outlet duct 13 is the upper air outlet duct, the second air outlet duct 14 is the lower air outlet duct; when the first air outlet duct 13 is the lower air outlet duct, the second air outlet duct 14 is the upper air outlet duct; when the first air outlet duct 13 is the left air outlet duct, the second air outlet duct 14 is the right air outlet duct; and when the first air outlet duct 13 is the right air outlet duct, the second air outlet duct 14 is the left air outlet duct.
[0075] In practical applications, the drive mechanism 5 can be an electrical component such as a motor or a manually controlled lever.
[0076] In practical applications, the first slide groove 632 and the second slide groove 633 can be the same slide groove.
[0077] In this embodiment, the windbreak plate 4 has an initial position (see...) Figure 4 , 6and 8) and work location (see Figure 12 When the air guide plate 3 moves in the air adjustment area, the air baffle plate 4 is always in the initial position and in a retracted state. The air baffle plate 4 does not obstruct the air intake of the first air outlet channel 13. When the air baffle plate 4 is in the working position, the air baffle plate 4 closes the first air outlet channel 13.
[0078] When the air guide plate 3 moves from the starting position toward the direction of the air adjustment area in the linkage zone, the air baffle plate 4 moves from the working position toward the initial position.
[0079] In this embodiment, when the air guide plate 3 moves in one direction within the air guide area, it has a first working position arranged sequentially. Figure 4 ), intermediate workstation ( Figure 6 ) and the second workstation ( Figure 8 );
[0080] See Figure 4 When the air guide plate 3 is in the first working position, it closes the first air outlet channel 13; see Figure 6 When the air guide plate 3 is in the middle working position, the air intake ratio of the first air outlet channel 13 and the second air outlet channel 14 is the same; see Figure 8 When the air guide plate 3 is in the second working position, the air guide plate 3 will close the second air outlet channel 14.
[0081] like Figure 9 and 10 As shown, the air guide plate 3 also has a starting position in the linkage area (see...). Figure 12 The third workstation between the second and third workstations (see...) Figure 10 ).
[0082] In this embodiment, the rotation axes of the air guide plate 3 and the air baffle plate 4 coincide, the air guide plate 3 and the air baffle plate 4 are in contact or clearance fit, and the air baffle plate 4 and the air guide plate 3 form an air guiding surface.
[0083] like Figure 13 and 14 As shown, of the two parts, the air guide plate 3 and the air baffle plate 4, one part has a columnar portion 31, and the axis corresponding to the columnar portion 31 is the rotation axis of the part. The other part has an arc-shaped surface 41 that fits the outer surface of the columnar portion 31. This arrangement ensures that the two plates can rotate relative to each other without interference and guarantees a proper fit, effectively preventing air from passing between them.
[0084] like Figure 4 , 6As shown in Figure 8, in this embodiment, the end of the inner shell 2 facing the air inlet channel 11 is a tapered pointed structure 21. The pointed structure 21 includes an inclined sidewall. When the baffle 4 is in its initial position, the baffle 4 is in contact with or has a clearance fit with the inclined sidewall. This arrangement can effectively prevent the baffle 4 from affecting the airflow entering the first channel when it is not working.
[0085] like Figure 8 , 10 As shown in Figure 12, in this embodiment, the inner wall of the outer shell 1 has an avoidance groove 15 corresponding to the linkage area; when the air guide plate 3 moves in the linkage area, the end of the air guide plate 3 enters the avoidance groove 15, and the surface shape of the avoidance groove 15 is adapted to the shape of the trajectory surface generated by the end of the air guide plate 3.

When the air guide plate 3 is in the starting position in the linkage area, the air baffle plate 4 is in contact with the side wall of the avoidance groove 15, and the air baffle plate 4 is in contact with the blocking surface 16.
[0087] like Figure 13 and 14 In this embodiment, the drive mechanism 5 includes a motor assembly. The motor assembly includes a motor 51 and a connector 53. The connector 53 can be configured in various ways, such as by engaging with the air guide plate 3, engaging with the output shaft 52 of the motor 51, or by spline connection.
[0088] This embodiment also discloses a vehicle, including the air vent assembly described in this embodiment.
[0089] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the scope of patent protection of the present invention.
