One end of the second connecting rod is matched with the rotating part, and the other end of the second connecting rod is rotationally connected with one end of the crank. The other end of the crank is rotationally connected with the air deflector. The driving gear drives the rotating part to rotate, and the rotating part drives the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod to move, and cooperates with the crank, so that the air deflector has multiple air deflection positions.

[0004] In the process of implementing the embodiments of the present disclosure, it is found that at least the following problems exist in the related art:

[0005] The first connecting rod and the second connecting rod push the air deflector to extend. When the movement speeds of the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are inconsistent, the air deflector will be stuck, so the crank is needed, which leads to the complex structure of the driving mechanism.

[0006] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the above background section is only used to strengthen the understanding of the background of the present application, and therefore can include information that does not constitute prior art known to those of ordinary skill in the art. SUMMARY

[0007] In order to have a basic understanding of some aspects of the disclosed embodiments, the following gives a simple summary. The summary is not a general review, nor is it intended to determine the key / important components or to delineate the protection scope of these embodiments, but as a prelude to the detailed description below.

[0008] The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a driving mechanism for an air deflector of an air conditioner and the air conditioner, to solve the problem of complex structure of the driving mechanism in the related art.

[0009] According to a first aspect of the embodiments of the present application, a driving mechanism for an air deflector of an air conditioner is provided, comprising: a first connecting rod comprising a first rod body and a connecting part connected to each other, the connecting part being configured to be rotationally connected to the air deflector; a second connecting rod configured to be movably connected to the air deflector; a rotating member controlled to rotate and drivingly connected to the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod, the rotating member driving the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod to move to realize opening and closing of the air deflector; wherein during the process that the air deflector is opened from a first position to a second position, the movement speed of at least two points on the first rod body is different, so that the first rod body rotates during the movement.

[0010] Optionally, during the process that the air deflector is opened from the first position to the second position, the center of rotation of the first rod body during the rotation is a non-fixed point.

[0011] Optionally, during the process that the air deflector is opened from the first position to the second position, the movement trajectory of the first rod body is a first curve segment trajectory, the first curve segment trajectory comprises a first sub-curve segment trajectory and a second sub-curve segment trajectory connected to each other, the center of curvature of the first sub-curve segment trajectory is located on the side of the first sub-curve segment trajectory facing the air outlet, and the center of curvature of the second sub-curve segment trajectory is located on the side of the second sub-curve segment trajectory away from the air outlet; wherein during the opening process of the air deflector, the first rod body sequentially passes through the first sub-curve segment trajectory and the second sub-curve segment trajectory.

[0012] Optionally, the center of curvature of the first sub-curve segment trajectory is a non-fixed point; and / or, the center of curvature of the second sub-curve segment trajectory is a non-fixed point.

[0013] Optionally, during the process that the air deflector is opened from the first position to the second position, the movement of the first rod body exists in the plane where the first rod body is located.

[0014] Optionally, during the process that the air deflector is opened from the first position to the second position, the movement speed of each point on the first rod body is different.

[0015] Optionally, the first rod body and the connecting part are of an integrated structure, and the connecting part is directly rotationally connected to the air deflector through a first rotation shaft.

[0019] The driving mechanism for the air conditioner air guide plate and the air conditioner provided in this disclosure can achieve the following technical effects:

[0020] During the process of the air guide plate opening from the first position to the second position, the rotation speed of at least two points on the first rod body is different, which causes the first link to rotate during the movement, that is, it is not just the extension movement of the air outlet. This prevents the air guide plate from getting stuck when the speeds of the first link and the second link are inconsistent, thus eliminating the need for the crank in related technologies and simplifying the structure of the drive mechanism.

[0078] It should be noted that the embodiments in the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0079] In combination Figures 1-46 As shown, the present disclosure provides a driving mechanism for an air conditioner air deflector.

[0080] The air conditioner comprises an indoor unit 100 and an outdoor unit connected with the indoor unit. The indoor unit 100 comprises a shell 1001, an evaporator, a fan and a guide vane 1002. The shell 1001 defines an air duct, the evaporator and the fan are arranged in the air duct, the shell 1001 is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet which are in communication with the air duct, and the guide vane 1002 is arranged at the air outlet. The fan drives air to enter the air duct through the air inlet, and the air is blown out from the air outlet after heat exchange with the evaporator. The guide vane 1002 is used for adjusting the air outlet direction of the air outlet, that is, when the guide vane 1002 is at different guide vane positions, the air outlet direction of the air outlet is different.

[0081] The driving mechanism for the guide vane of the air conditioner comprises a linkage assembly and a rotating member 3. The linkage assembly comprises a linkage, and the linkage comprises a first linkage 1 and / or a second linkage 2.

[0082] The first linkage 1 is configured to be rotationally connected with the guide vane 1002, and the second linkage 2 is configured to be rotationally connected with the guide vane 1002. The rotating member 3 comprises a first driving part in driving connection with the first linkage 1 and a second driving part in driving connection with the second linkage 2.

[0083] When the rotating member 3 rotates in a set direction, the first linkage 1 is driven to move by the first driving part, and the second linkage 2 is driven to move by the second driving part, so as to open the guide vane 1002.

[0084] When the rotating member 3 rotates in the opposite direction of the set direction, the first linkage 1 is driven to move by the first driving part, and the second linkage 2 is driven to move by the second driving part, so as to close the guide vane 1002. The set direction can be a clockwise direction or a counterclockwise direction.

[0085] The first linkage comprises a first linkage body 18 and a connecting part 192. The connecting part is rotationally connected with the guide vane and is arranged at one end of the first linkage body.

[0086] During the opening process of the guide vane 1002, the movement track of the first linkage 1 comprises a first curve segment track 513, and the curvature center of the first curve segment track is a non-fixed point; and / or, the movement track of the second linkage 2 comprises a second curve segment track, and the curvature center of the second curve segment track is a non-fixed point.

[0087] During the opening process of the guide vane 1002, the movement track of the first linkage body 18 comprises a first curve segment track 513, and the curvature radii of at least two points on the first curve segment track are different; and / or, the movement track of the second linkage 2 comprises a second curve segment track, and the curvature radii of at least two points on the second curve segment track are different.

[0088] As Figure 4 and Figure 27As shown, the curvature center of the first curve segment trajectory is not fixed, and the curvature centers of at least two points on the first curve segment trajectory are not the same point, so that the first curve segment trajectory is not a circular arc, so that the first rod body 18 has a first extension movement (generally perpendicular to the plane of the air outlet) and a movement in a first deviation movement direction deviating from the first extension movement direction (the direction of the first extension movement) during the opening of the deflector 1002. The first deviation movement direction and the first extension movement direction form a first movement of the first rod body 1.

[0089] The curvature center of the second curve segment trajectory is not fixed, and the curvature centers of at least two points on the second curve segment trajectory are not the same point, so that the second curve segment trajectory is not a circular arc, so that the second connecting rod 2 has a second extension movement (generally perpendicular to the plane of the air outlet) and a movement in a second deviation movement direction deviating from the second extension movement direction (the direction of the second extension movement) during the opening of the deflector 1002. The second deviation movement direction and the second extension movement direction form a second movement of the second connecting rod 2.

[0090] During the opening of the deflector 1002, the movement trajectory of the first rod body 18 includes the first curve segment trajectory and / or the movement trajectory of the second connecting rod 2 includes the second curve segment trajectory, so that the first rod body and the connecting part can be made into an integral structure and directly connected with the deflector 1002 through the first rotating shaft, without the need to additionally set the crank in the related art, avoiding interference between the deflector 1002 and the shell 1001 during the opening of the deflector 1002. The second connecting rod 2 can also be made into an integral structure and directly connected with the deflector 1002 through the second rotating shaft, without the need to additionally set the crank in the related art, avoiding interference between the deflector 1002 and the shell 1001 during the opening of the deflector 1002.

[0091] Optionally, the first rod body and the connecting part are an integral structure and are directly connected with the deflector 1002 through the first rotating shaft; and / or, the second connecting rod 2 is an integral structure and is directly connected with the deflector 1002 through the second rotating shaft.

[0092] Optionally, as Figure 4As shown, in the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the first position to the second position, the movement track of the first rod body 18 includes a first sub-curve track 514 and a second sub-curve track 515 connected in sequence, the curvature center of the first sub-curve track is located on the side of the first sub-curve track facing the air outlet, the curvature center of the second sub-curve track is located on the side of the second sub-curve track away from the air outlet, and the movement track of the second connecting rod 2 is a straight line track N, such as Figure 28 As shown.

[0093] The first curve track includes the first sub-curve track and the second sub-curve track, and in the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the first position to the second position, the first connecting rod 1 sequentially passes through the first sub-curve track and the second sub-curve track.

[0094] The curvature center of the first sub-curve track is located on the side of the first sub-curve track facing the air outlet 1003, and the curvature center of the second sub-curve track is located on the side of the second sub-curve track away from the air outlet, that is, the bending directions of the first sub-curve track and the second sub-curve track are different, so that the first connecting rod 1 has the movement in the first offset movement direction in addition to the movement in the first stretching movement direction.

[0095] The first sub-curve track is not parallel to the length direction of the first connecting rod, and the curvature center of the first sub-curve track is not a fixed point, that is, the curvature centers of at least two sections of the first sub-curve track are different; the second sub-curve track is not parallel to the length direction of the first connecting rod, and the curvature center of the second sub-curve track is not a fixed point, that is, the curvature centers of at least two sections of the second sub-curve track are different.

[0096] With the arrangement, when the first rod body 18 moves along the first sub-curve track, the first connecting rod 1 has the movement in the first stretching movement direction and the movement in the first sub-movement direction. When the first connecting rod 1 moves along the second sub-curve track, the first connecting rod 1 has the movement in the first stretching movement direction and the movement in the second sub-movement direction. The first offset movement direction includes the first sub-movement direction and the second sub-movement direction, and the first sub-movement direction and the second sub-movement direction are different directions, that is, have different angles with the first stretching movement direction.

[0097] Optionally, in the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the second position to the fourth position, the second connecting rod 2 rotates around the first rotation axis at the movable connection between the second connecting rod 2 and the air deflector 1002. For example, the movable connection between the second connecting rod 2 and the air deflector 1002 is that the second connecting rod 2 and the air deflector 1002 are connected by rotating around the second rotation axis, and the axis line of the second rotation axis rotates around the axis line of the first rotation axis.

[0098] In the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the second position to the fourth position, the first connecting rod 1 stops moving, such as Figure 28As shown, the movement track of the second connecting rod 2 is a circular arc track M.

[0099] In this arrangement, the first connecting rod 1 stops moving, and the structure of the driving mechanism for the air deflector can be simplified, and the cost of the driving mechanism for the air deflector can be reduced while achieving the opening of the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position.

[0100] The circular arc track M is connected to the linear track N and located on one side of the linear track N, and the center of the circular arc track M is located on the side of the circular arc track M away from the air outlet.

[0101] Optionally, the first driving part includes a first driving portion, and the second driving part includes a second driving portion, and the number of the first driving portion and / or the second driving portion is multiple. The first connecting rod 1 includes a first driven portion matched with the first driving portion, and the first driven portion is arranged on the first rod body; and the second connecting rod 2 includes a second driven portion matched with the second driving portion.

[0102] The first connecting rod 1 includes a first driving structure drivingly connected with the first driving part, and the first driving structure is the first driven portion. The first driving structure includes a first slot structure, and the first driving part includes a first protruding structure arranged in the first slot structure and capable of sliding relative to the first slot structure. At this time, the first protruding structure includes the first driving portion, and the number of the first driving portion is multiple. Alternatively, the first driving part includes a first slot structure, and the first driving structure includes a first protruding structure arranged in the first slot structure and capable of sliding relative to the first slot structure. At this time, the first slot structure includes the first driving portion, and the number of the first driving portion is multiple.

[0103] The second connecting rod 2 includes a second driving structure drivingly connected with the second driving part, and the second driving structure is the second driven portion. The second driving structure includes a second slot structure, and the second driving part includes a second protruding structure arranged in the second slot structure and capable of sliding relative to the second slot structure. At this time, the second protruding structure includes the second driving portion, and the number of the second driving portion is multiple.

Through the cooperation of the second slot structure and the second protruding structure, the second driving part can drive the second connecting rod 2 to move, so as to realize the opening and closing of the air deflector 1002.

[0105] In the first position, the driving point of the rotating member to the first connecting rod (the matching point of the first slot structure and the first protruding structure) does not coincide with the movement direction of the air deflector, and the driving point of the rotating member to the second connecting rod (the matching point of the second slot structure and the second protruding structure) does not coincide with the movement direction of the air deflector, avoiding the formation of a dead point position coinciding with the movement direction, so that the air deflector cannot be manually pulled open when the air conditioner is powered off.

[0111] The first limiting portion 401 matches with the first limiting matching portion 301, so as to limit the movement of the transmission member along the first limiting direction, that is, the movement of the transmission member along the movement direction, thereby realizing the relative static of the transmission member and the transmission shaft 4 along the movement direction of the transmission member, so that the transmission shaft 4 can drive the transmission member to move along the movement direction of the transmission member, that is, the transmission member can move with the transmission shaft 4. The second limiting portion 402 matches with the second limiting matching portion 302, so as to limit the movement of the transmission member along the second limiting direction, thereby matching the first limiting portion 401 and the first limiting matching portion 301, so as to limit the movement of the transmission member in multiple directions, so that the transmission member achieves the expected movement effect.

[0112] Optionally, the first limiting portion 401 and the second limiting portion 402 are sequentially arranged along the circumference of the transmission shaft 4, so that the space of the circumference of the transmission shaft 4 can be reasonably utilized, and the structure of the transmission shaft 4 is more compact.

The limiting rib 3041 and the third limiting part 403 are arranged sequentially in a direction opposite to the second limiting direction to restrict the movement of the transmission member relative to the transmission shaft 4 in a direction opposite to the second limiting direction. Alternatively, if the first limiting part 401 is a limiting groove 3011, the third limiting part 403 is a limiting rib 3041 provided on the inner wall surface of the limiting groove 3011, and the third limiting mating part 304 is the surface of the first limiting protrusion 4011 facing the limiting rib 3041 and abutting against the limiting rib 3041. The third limiting mating part 304 and the limiting rib 3041 are arranged sequentially in a direction opposite to the second limiting direction to restrict the movement of the transmission member relative to the transmission shaft 4 in a direction opposite to the second limiting direction.

The first abutting rib 63 extends along the length direction of the limiting member 6. The number of the first abutting ribs 63 is multiple, and the multiple first abutting ribs 63 are arranged in sequence along the width direction of the limiting member 6.

Figure 9 The number of the fourth abutting ribs 27 is multiple, and the multiple fourth abutting ribs 27 are sequentially arranged along the width direction of the second connecting rod 2. Figure 9

[0134] As shown, Figure 23 optionally, the driving mechanism for the air conditioner air deflector further comprises a mechanism box 5, the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2 are at least partially arranged in the mechanism box 5 and move between a position extending out of the mechanism box 5 and a position retracting into the mechanism box 5, and the limiting piece 6 is installed on the mechanism box 5, so that the fixation of the limiting piece 6 is realized through the mechanism box 5.

[0135] As shown, Figure 23 optionally, the mechanism box 5 is provided with a mounting gap, the limiting piece 6 comprises a limiting body 61 and a stop rib 62, the limiting body 61 is arranged in the mechanism box 5, the stop rib 62 is arranged at the end of the limiting body 61 and extends out of the mounting gap, the number of the stop ribs 62 is multiple and they are respectively arranged at the opposite ends of the limiting body 61, and the size of the stop rib 62 is greater than the size of the mounting gap, so as to avoid the stop rib 62 from entering the mechanism box 5. The mounting gap is matched with the limiting body 61 and cooperates with the stop rib 62, so as to realize the positioning of the limiting piece 6.

[0136] Optionally, the mechanism box 5 comprises a box body 52 and a box cover 51, and the box cover 51 is arranged on the box body 52, and the limiting piece 6 is clamped between the box body 52 and the box cover 51.

[0137] The box body 52 and the box cover 51 are detachably connected. The limiting piece 6 is clamped between the box body 52 and the box cover 51, and the positioning of the limiting piece 6 can also be realized when the box cover 51 is arranged on the box body 52.

[0138] ​Optionally, the first connecting rod 1 is arranged between the limiting member 6 and the mechanism box 5, and a surface of the first connecting rod 1 towards the mechanism box 5 abuts against the mechanism box 5, so as to limit the movement of the first connecting rod 1 towards the mechanism box 5, i.e. in a direction away from the limiting member 6, thereby further limiting the movement of the first connecting rod 1 in a direction connecting the limiting member 6 and the mechanism box 5; and / or, the second connecting rod 2 is arranged between the limiting member 6 and the mechanism box 5, and a surface of the second connecting rod 2 towards the mechanism box 5 abuts against the mechanism box 5, so as to limit the movement of the second connecting rod 2 towards the mechanism box 5, i.e. in a direction away from the limiting member 6, thereby further limiting the movement of the second connecting rod 2 in a direction connecting the limiting member 6 and the mechanism box 5.

[0139] Optionally, the power source comprises a transmission member, which is drivingly connected with the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2, and is arranged between the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2 and abuts against the first connecting rod 1 and / or the second connecting rod 2.

[0141] Optionally, as shown in Figure 10 , the transmission member and the limiting member 6 are arranged along the length direction of the first connecting rod 1 or the second connecting rod 2 in sequence, so that different positions of the first connecting rod 1 or the second connecting rod 2 in the length direction are respectively limited by the transmission member and the limiting member 6, thereby avoiding collision at different positions of the first connecting rod 1 or the second connecting rod 2 in the length direction.

[0142] Embodiment one:

[0143] As shown in Figures 1-22 , the first driving groove 11 is a curved groove, and the second driving groove 12 is a curved groove.

[0144] The size of the first protruding column 31 is adapted to the first driving groove 11, i.e. when the first protruding column 31 is located in the first driving groove 11 and slides relative to the first driving groove 11, the first protruding column 31 can drive the first connecting rod 1 to move relative to the rotating member 3, in other words, the cooperation of the first protruding column 31 and the first driving groove 11 can provide driving force for the movement of the first connecting rod 1. And the size of the second protruding column 32 is adapted to the second driving groove 12.

[0145] The first protruding column 31 cooperates with the first driving slot 11, and the second protruding column 32 cooperates with the second driving slot 12, to jointly realize the movement of the first connecting rod 1. Compared with the cooperation between the first connecting rod 1 and the rotating member 3 through only one protruding column and one driving slot, the cooperation between the first protruding column 31 and the first driving slot 11 and the cooperation between the second protruding column 32 and the second driving slot 12 can realize the stable movement of the first connecting rod 1, and can realize the superposition of the movement in the first extension movement direction and the movement in the first deviation movement direction of the first connecting rod 1 under the condition that the structures of the first driving slot 11 and the second driving slot 12 are relatively simple.

[0146] As shown in Figure 7 , at least one of the first driving slot 11 and the second driving slot 12 needs to be a curved slot to meet the requirements of the movement trajectory of the first connecting rod 1.

[0147] Optionally, in the case that the first driving slot 11 and the second driving slot 12 are both curved slots, the first driving slot 11 is oppositely arranged with the second driving slot 12.

[0148] In the case that the first connecting rod 1 moves by a preset displacement, the sliding amount of the first protruding column 31 in the first driving slot 11 relative to the first driving slot 11 and the sliding amount of the second protruding column 32 in the second driving slot 12 relative to the second driving slot 12 are different, and the first driving slot 11 and the second driving slot 12 are oppositely arranged, so that the one with the larger sliding amount mainly drives the movement of the first connecting rod 1, and the one with the smaller sliding amount plays a role similar to a fulcrum or a rotating point.

[0149] As shown in Figure 7 , the first driving slot 11 and the second driving slot 12 are both arranged on the first connecting rod 1, the first driving slot 11 and the second driving slot 12 are oppositely arranged, and the first driving slot 11 and the second driving slot 12 are both arranged along the width direction (b) of the first connecting rod 1 and sequentially arranged along the length direction (a) of the first connecting rod 1. Figure 7 Figure 7 As shown in Figure 11 , the first protruding column 31 and the second protruding column 32 are sequentially arranged along the circumferential direction of the rotating member 3.

[0150] In this way, the cooperation between the first protruding column 31 and the first driving slot 11 and the cooperation between the second protruding column 32 and the second driving slot 12 can meet the requirements of the movement trajectory of the first connecting rod 1, and the first driving slot 11 and the second driving slot 12 occupy a small volume on the first connecting rod 1, thereby reducing the size of the first connecting rod 1.

[0151] ​The extension directions of both the first drive groove 11 and the second drive groove 12 are not parallel to the length direction of the first connecting rod 1. The first protrusion 31 slides relative to the first drive groove 11 along its extension direction, and the second protrusion 32 slides relative to the second drive groove 12 along its extension direction. Thus, the engagement of the first protrusion 31 with the first drive groove 11 drives the first connecting rod 1 to move; the engagement of the second protrusion 32 with the second drive groove 12 also drives the first connecting rod 1 to move.

[0152] Optionally, such as Figure 7 As shown, when both the first drive groove 11 and the second drive groove 12 are curved grooves, the first drive groove 11 includes a first sub-drive groove 111 and a second sub-drive groove 112. The second sub-drive groove 112 is connected to the first sub-drive groove 111. When the air guide plate 1002 moves from the first position to the second position, the first protrusion 31 slides through the first sub-drive groove 111 and the second sub-drive groove 112 in sequence. The length of the first sub-drive groove 111 is less than the length of the second sub-drive groove 112, and the curvature of the first sub-drive groove 111 is greater than the curvature of the second sub-drive groove 112.

[0153] Both the first sub-drive groove 111 and the second sub-drive groove 112 are curved grooves, and the curvature of the first sub-drive groove 111 is greater than that of the second sub-drive groove 112. This results in a greater force exerted on the first sub-drive groove 111 when the first protrusion 31 is located within it, which is greater than the force exerted on the second sub-drive groove 112 when it is located within it. This initiates the opening process of the air guide plate 1002, changing its speed from zero to greater than zero. Because the opening process of the air guide plate 1002 is relatively short, the length of the first sub-drive groove 111 is less than the length of the second sub-drive groove 112.

[0154] The connection between the first sub-drive slot 111 and the second sub-drive slot 112 adopts a smooth transition.

[0155] Optionally, if both the first drive groove 11 and the second drive groove 12 are curved grooves, the second drive groove 12 includes a third sub-drive groove 121 and a fourth sub-drive groove 122. The fourth sub-drive groove 122 is connected to the third sub-drive groove 121, and during the process of the air guide plate 1002 moving from the first position to the second position, the second protrusion 32 slides through the third sub-drive groove 121 and the fourth sub-drive groove 122 in sequence; the length of the third sub-drive groove 121 is less than the length of the fourth sub-drive groove 122, and the curvature of the third sub-drive groove 121 is greater than the curvature of the fourth sub-drive groove 122.

[0156] The third sub driving groove 121 and the fourth sub driving groove 122 are both curved grooves, and the bending degree of the third sub driving groove 121 is greater than the bending degree of the fourth sub driving groove 122, so that when the second protruding column 32 is located in the third sub driving groove 121, the force acting on the third sub driving groove 121 is greater than the force acting on the fourth sub driving groove 122 when the second protruding column 32 is located in the fourth sub driving groove 122, so as to start the opening process of the air deflector 1002, and change the speed of the air deflector 1002 from zero to greater than zero. Since the time of starting the opening process of the air deflector 1002 is relatively short, the length of the third sub driving groove 121 is less than the length of the fourth sub driving groove 122.

[0157] Optionally, the plurality of first driving parts includes a fourth sub driving part; the fourth sub driving part and one of the first driven parts include a fourth protruding column 34, and the other includes a fourth driving groove 13.

[0158] The first slot structure further includes a fourth driving groove 13; the first protruding structure further includes a fourth protruding column 34, which is arranged in the fourth driving groove 13 and can slide relative to the fourth driving groove 13 during the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the first position to the second position; wherein the fourth driving groove 13 is a curved groove.

[0159] The fourth protruding column 34 is matched in size with the fourth driving groove 13.

[0160] During the process that the air deflector 1002 moves from the first position to the second position, the first protruding column 31 is located in the first driving groove 11 at least partially in the stroke, the second protruding column 32 is always located in the second driving groove 12, and the fourth protruding column 34 is always located in the fourth driving groove 13, so that at least two protruding columns are always matched with at least two driving grooves at the same time, and the fourth driving groove 13 is a curved groove, thereby realizing that the first connecting rod 1 has both the partial motion of the first deviated motion direction and the partial motion of the first extending motion direction.

[0161] In the case that the fourth driving groove 13 and the first driving groove 11, the second driving groove 12 are all located in the first connecting rod 1 or the rotating member 3, the fourth driving groove 13 intersects with the extension line of the first driving groove 11 and / or intersects with the extension line of the second driving groove 12.

[0162] Taking the case that the first slot structure is arranged in the first connecting rod 1 as an example, the extension line of the first driving groove 11 and / or the second driving groove 12 intersects with the fourth driving groove 13, so that the space of the first connecting rod 1 can be fully utilized, and the size of the first connecting rod 1 is prevented from being too large, thereby reducing the size of the driving mechanism for the air deflector of the air conditioner.

[0163] During the opening process of the air deflector 1002, the air deflector 1002 sequentially passes through the first position, the third position and the second position. From the first position to the third position, the first protruding column 31 is located in the first driving groove 11, the second protruding column 32 is located in the second driving groove 12, and the fourth protruding column 34 is located in the fourth driving groove 13. Figure 2As shown, the first protruding column 31 is at least partially located in the first driving slot 11 and can slide relative to the first driving slot 11, the second protruding column 32 is located in the second driving slot 12 and can slide relative to the second driving slot 12, and the fourth protruding column 34 is located in the fourth driving slot 13 and can move relative to the fourth driving slot 13. From the third position to the second position, as shown, Figure 13 As shown, the first protruding column 31 is separated from the first driving slot 11, the second protruding column 32 is located in the second driving slot 12 and can slide relative to the second driving slot 12, and the fourth protruding column 34 is located in the fourth driving slot 13 and can slide relative to the fourth driving slot 13.

[0164] In other words, from the first position to the second position, the second protruding column 32 is always matched with the second driving slot 12, the fourth protruding column 34 is always matched with the fourth driving slot 13, and the first protruding column 31 is first matched with the first driving slot 11 and then separated from the first driving slot 11, i.e. no longer matched, so as to ensure that at least two protruding columns are matched with two driving slots during the movement of the air deflector 1002 from the first position to the second position, and the first protruding column 31 is intermittently matched with the first driving slot 11, which can avoid the first driving slot 11 being too large.

[0165] Optionally, the fourth driving slot 13 is located on the first connecting rod 1 together with the first driving slot 11 and the second driving slot 12, and the first connecting rod 1 is provided with an avoiding gap 191, and the rotation axis of the rotating member 3 is arranged in the avoiding gap 191.

[0166] When the rotating member 3 rotates around the rotation axis thereof, the first connecting rod 1 is driven to move, the avoiding gap 191 moves together with the first connecting rod 1, i.e. the avoiding gap 191 moves relative to the rotation axis of the rotating member 3, so that the first protruding structure on the rotating member 3 is matched with different positions of the first slot structure.

[0167] As shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the first driving slot 11 and the second driving slot 12 are located on one side of the avoiding gap 191, and the fourth driving slot 13 is arranged on the other side of the avoiding gap 191, so that the intermittent matching of the first protruding column 31 and the first driving slot 11 can be achieved when the rotating member 3 rotates, and at least two protruding columns on the rotating member 3 can be matched with two driving slots respectively.

[0168] Optionally, the first slot structure further comprises a ninth driving slot 14, and the ninth driving slot 14 is in communication with the fourth driving slot 13, as shown in Figure 15 , Figure 17 and Figure 19As shown, during the process of the air guide plate 1002 opening from the second position to the fourth position, the fourth protrusion 34 is located in the ninth drive groove 14 and can slide relative to the ninth drive groove 14; wherein, during the process of the air guide plate 1002 moving from the second position to the fourth position, the ninth drive groove 14 is an arc-shaped groove with the rotation center of the rotating member 3 as its center.

[0169] The fourth protrusion 34 is adapted to the size of the ninth drive groove 14.

[0170] When the air guide plate 1002 continues to open from the second position, the fourth protrusion 34 slides from the fourth drive groove 13 into the ninth drive groove 14 and slides relative to the ninth drive groove 14. The first protrusion 31 disengages from the first drive groove 11. In the initial stage of continued opening, the second protrusion 32 is still located in the second drive groove 12. After the initial stage, the second protrusion 32 also disengages from the second drive groove 12. The ninth drive groove 14 is an arc-shaped groove, and the center of the ninth drive groove 14 is the rotation center of the rotating member 3. Thus, when the air guide plate 1002 continues to open from the second position, the rotating member 3 rotates, and the fourth protrusion 34 rotates relative to the ninth drive groove 14 around the rotation center of the rotating member 3. The first connecting rod 1 remains stationary.

[0171] The curvature of the ninth drive slot 14 is greater than that of the fourth drive slot 13.

[0172] The fourth drive groove 13 extends along the length direction of the first connecting rod 1. The first drive groove 11 and the fourth drive groove 13 are arranged sequentially along the width direction of the first connecting rod 1, and / or the second drive groove 12 and the fourth drive groove 13 are arranged sequentially along the width direction of the first connecting rod 1, so as to reduce the dimension of the first connecting rod 1 in the length direction.

[0173] like Figure 15 As shown, the driving mechanism for the air conditioner deflector also includes an eleventh driving groove 16, which is located in the first connecting rod 1 or rotating member 3 where the second driving groove 12 is located. The eleventh driving groove 16 is connected to the second driving groove 12 and is adapted to the second protrusion 32. When the deflector 1002 continues to open from the second position, the second protrusion 32 slides from the second driving groove 12 into the eleventh driving groove 16 and can slide relative to the eleventh driving groove 16 until the deflector 1002 moves to the seventh position.

[0174] The eleventh drive groove 16 is an arc-shaped groove, and during the process of the air guide plate 1002 moving from the second position to the fourth position, the center of the circle where the eleventh drive groove 16 is located is the rotation center of the rotating component 3. In this way, when the air guide plate 1002 moves from the second position to the seventh position, the sliding of the second protrusion 32 relative to the eleventh rotating groove will not drive the first connecting rod 1 to move, and will make the position of the first connecting rod 1 more stable, and will not hinder the rotation of the rotating component 3, that is, it will not affect the rotating component 3 from continuing to drive the second connecting rod 2 to move.

[0175] When the air deflector 1002 continues to move from the seventh position to the fourth position, the second protruding column 32 is out of the eleventh driving slot 16, avoiding the second protruding column 32 always cooperating with the eleventh driving slot 16 to cause the size of the eleventh driving slot 16 to be too large. Wherein, the air deflector 1002 sequentially passes through the second position, the seventh position and the fourth position during the opening process.

[0176] The eleventh driving slot 16 and the fourth driving slot 13 are both arranged on the first connecting rod 1 or the rotating member 3, and the fourth driving slot 13 is provided with a through gap 131 for the second protruding column 32 to pass through. When the second protruding column 32 slides out of the eleventh driving slot 16, with the continuous rotation of the rotating member 3, the second protruding column 32 passes out of the through gap 131. When the first protruding column 31 slides out of the first driving slot 11, with the continuous rotation of the rotating member 3, the first protruding column 31 passes out of the through gap 131.

[0177] The eleventh driving slot 16 and the ninth driving slot 14 are both arranged on the first connecting rod 1 or the rotating member 3, and the eleventh driving slot 16 and the ninth driving slot 14 are concentric circles during the movement of the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position, and the centers of the concentric circles are both the rotation center of the rotating member 3.

[0178] The eleventh driving slot 16 and the fourth driving slot 13 are both arranged on the first connecting rod 1 or the rotating member 3, and the extension line of the eleventh driving slot 16 intersects with the fourth driving slot 13, so as to reduce the size of the first connecting rod 1 or the rotating member 3 where the eleventh driving slot 16 and the fourth driving slot 13 are arranged.

[0179] The ninth driving slot 14 and the eleventh driving slot 16 are arranged on opposite sides of the rotation center of the rotating member 3 during the movement of the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position. On the one hand, compared with being arranged on the same side of the rotation center, being arranged on opposite sides can make the structure of the first connecting rod 1 or the rotating member 3 where the ninth driving slot 14 and the eleventh driving slot 16 are arranged more compact, and the ninth driving slot 14 and the eleventh driving slot 16 are sequentially arranged along the length direction of the first connecting rod 1.

[0180] The seventh position is a position between the second position and the embracing air supply position.

[0181] As shown in FIG. 1, the driving mechanism for the air deflector of the air conditioner further includes a tenth protruding column 36, which is arranged on the first connecting rod 1 or the rotating member 3 where the fourth protruding column 34 is arranged. Figure 17 During the movement of the air deflector 1002 from the first position to the second position, the tenth protruding column 36 is arranged outside the ninth driving slot 14, and during the movement of the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position, the tenth protruding column 36 is arranged inside the ninth driving slot 14 and can slide relative to the ninth driving slot 14.

[0182] The tenth protrusion 36 is adapted to the ninth drive groove 14. Furthermore, the distance between the tenth protrusion 36 and the rotation center of the rotating member 3 is equal to the distance between the fourth protrusion 34 and the rotation center of the rotating member 3. Taking the example where both the tenth protrusion 36 and the fourth protrusion 34 are located on the rotating member 3, the tenth protrusion 36 and the fourth protrusion 34 are arranged sequentially along the circumference of the rotating member 3.

[0183] When the air guide plate 1002 is not opened to the second position, the tenth protrusion 36 is located in the clearance notch 191. The fourth drive groove 13 is provided with a through-inlet 132. When the air guide plate 1002 is opened to the second position, the tenth protrusion 36 enters the ninth drive groove 14 through the through-inlet 132.

[0184] like Figure 13 As shown, during the process of the air guide plate 1002 moving from the second position to the fourth position, the fourth protrusion 34 and the tenth protrusion 36 are both located in the ninth drive groove 14 and can slide relative to the ninth drive groove 14, thereby improving the positional stability of the first connecting rod 1.

[0185] Optionally, such as Figure 9 and Figure 12 As shown, one of the third driving part and the second driven part includes a third protrusion 33, and the other includes a third drive groove 21. The first protrusion 31 is disposed in the first drive groove 11 and can slide relative to the first drive groove 11, the second protrusion 32 is disposed in the second drive groove 12 and can slide relative to the second drive groove 12, and the third protrusion 33 is disposed in the third drive groove 21 and can slide relative to the third drive groove 21, so that the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2 together drive the air guide plate 1002 to move from the first position to the second position.

[0186] Optionally, the plurality of second driving parts include a fifth sub-driving part; one of the fifth sub-driving part and the second driven part includes a fifth protrusion 35, and the other includes a fifth drive groove 23.

[0187] When both the first drive groove 11 and the second drive groove 12 are curved grooves, the second groove structure includes a third drive groove 21 and a fifth drive groove 23; the second protrusion structure includes a third protrusion 33 and a fifth protrusion 35; during the process of the air guide plate 1002 opening from the first position to the second position, the third protrusion 33 is disposed in the third drive groove 21 and can slide relative to the third drive groove 21, and the fifth protrusion 35 is disposed in the fifth drive groove 23 and can slide relative to the fifth drive groove 23; wherein, the third drive groove 21 is a straight groove, and the fifth drive groove 23 is a curved groove.

[0188] The third protrusion 33 is sized to match the third drive groove 21. The fifth protrusion 35 is sized to match the fifth drive groove 23.

[0189] The cooperation of the third protruding column 33 and the third driving slot 21 and the cooperation of the fifth protruding column 35 and the fifth driving slot 23 jointly drive the second connecting rod 2 to move. The third driving slot 21 is a straight slot, and the fifth driving slot 23 is a curved slot, so as to realize the movement of the second connecting rod 2 along a straight track during the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the first position to the second position.

[0190] Optionally, the third driving slot 21 and the fifth driving slot 23 are both arranged on the second connecting rod 2, and the third driving slot 21 and the fifth driving slot 23 are both not parallel to the length direction of the second connecting rod 2, so that when the third protruding column 33 cooperates with the third driving slot 21, the third driving slot 21 can be applied with a force to drive the second connecting rod 2 to move, and when the fifth protruding column 35 cooperates with the fifth driving slot 23, the fifth driving slot 23 can be applied with a force to drive the second connecting rod 2 to move.

[0191] The extension line of the third driving slot 21 intersects with the fifth driving slot 23, which on the one hand meets the requirement of the movement track of the second connecting rod 2, and on the other hand reduces the volume occupied by the third driving slot 21 and the fifth driving slot 23.

[0192] Optionally, as shown in Figure 9 the second slot structure further comprises a tenth driving slot 22, the tenth driving slot 22 is in communication with the third driving slot 21, and during the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the second position to the fourth position, the third protruding column 33 is located in the tenth driving slot 22 and can slide relative to the tenth driving slot 22; wherein the tenth driving slot 22 is connected to the side of the third driving slot 21 away from the air outlet, and the communication part of the tenth driving slot 22 and the third driving slot 21 forms an angle, and the tenth driving slot 22 is a circular arc slot.

[0193] The third protruding column 33 is matched in size with the tenth driving slot 22.

[0194] As shown in Figure 16 when the air deflector 1002 continues to open from the second position, the third protruding column 33 slides into the tenth driving slot 22 and can slide relative to the tenth driving slot 22 to drive the second connecting rod 2 to move. The tenth driving slot 22 is a circular arc slot, so that the movement track of the second connecting rod 2 is a circular arc.

[0195] Since the second connecting rod 2 always moves during the rotation of the rotating part 3, the center of the circular arc where the tenth driving slot 22 is located deviates from the rotation center of the rotating part 3 during the process that the air deflector 1002 moves from the second position to the fourth position.

[0196] Optionally, as shown in Figure 16As shown, the second slot structure further comprises a thirteenth driving slot 24, the thirteenth driving slot 24 is in communication with the fifth driving slot 23, and the fifth protruding column 35 is located in the thirteenth driving slot 24 and can slide relative to the thirteenth driving slot 24 in the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the second position to the fourth position; wherein the thirteenth driving slot 24 is connected to the side of the fifth driving slot 23 away from the air outlet, and the communication part of the thirteenth driving slot 24 and the fifth driving slot 23 forms an angle, the thirteenth driving slot 24 is a circular arc slot, and the circle where the thirteenth driving slot 24 is located and the circle where the tenth driving slot 22 is located are concentric circles.

[0197] The fifth protruding column 35 is matched in size with the thirteenth driving slot 24.

The thirteenth driving slot 24 and the tenth driving slot 22 are both circular arc slots, and the circles where the two circular arc slots are located are concentric circles, and the center of the concentric circle does not coincide with the rotation center of the rotating member 3 in the process that the air deflector 1002 moves from the second position to the fourth position, so as to drive the movement track of the second connecting rod 2 to be circular arc.

[0235] The first power groove and the second power groove intersect, and it is not necessary that the extension line of the first power groove and the extension line of the second power groove intersect, so that the size of the first connecting rod 1, the second connecting rod 2, or the rotating member 3 in which the first power groove and the second power groove are located can be reduced.

[0236] The driving column structure includes a fifth driving column, which is sequentially matched with the first power groove and the second power groove during the rotation of the rotating member 3. The first power groove is a non-circular arc, and the second power groove is a circular arc. The center of the circular arc during the movement of the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position is not the rotation center of the rotating member 3. In this case, the first power groove can be the third driving groove 21, the fifth driving column can be the third convex column 33, and the second power groove can be the tenth driving groove 22. Alternatively, the first power groove can be the fifth driving groove 23, the fifth driving column can be the fifth convex column 35, and the second power groove can be the thirteenth driving groove 24.

[0237] The device for driving the air deflector 1002 of the air conditioner includes a first convex column and a reversing groove. One of the first convex column and the reversing groove is arranged on the second connecting rod 2, and the other is arranged on the rotating member 3. The reversing groove has a first end portion 211 and a second end portion 212 at two ends in the length direction of the reversing groove. During the opening of the air deflector 1002, the first convex column is arranged in the reversing groove and slides relative to the reversing groove in a first direction and then in a second direction. The first direction is from the first end portion 211 to the second end portion 212, and the second direction is from the second end portion 212 to the first end portion 211.

[0238] Optionally, the reversing groove is a straight groove, and the reversing groove and the second connecting rod 2 have a non-zero included angle in the length direction. The reversing groove can be the third driving groove 21, and the first convex column can be the third convex column 33.

[0239] Optionally, the reversing groove further includes an intermediate segment 215 arranged between the first end portion 211 and the second end portion 212. When the air deflector 1002 is in the closed position (i.e., the first position), the first convex column is located in the intermediate segment 215. In this way, as the air deflector 1002 is opened, the first convex column slides relative to the reversing groove in the first direction first, and then slides in the second direction after reaching the first end portion 211.

[0240] The power source for the air conditioner air deflector 1002 further comprises a second protruding column and a first adapter slot, one of which is arranged on the second connecting rod 2, and the other is arranged on the rotating member 3. During the opening process of the air deflector 1002, when the first protruding column moves a preset displacement in the first direction relative to the reversing slot, the second protruding column is switched from the non-matching position outside the first adapter slot to the matching position sliding into the first adapter slot, so that the first protruding column and the reversing slot are matched, and the second protruding column and the first adapter slot are matched, to jointly drive the air deflector 1002 to move.

[0241] By the movement of the first protruding column relative to the reversing slot, the switching of the second protruding column between the non-matching position and the matching position is realized, so as to flexibly adjust the position of the second protruding column. In the matching position, the second protruding column slides into the first adapter slot and slides relative to the first adapter slot, and at this time the first protruding column is located in the reversing slot and moves in the second direction relative to the reversing slot, so as to jointly drive the second connecting rod 2 to move.

[0242] The first adapter slot can be a fifth driving slot 23, and at this time the second protruding column is a fifth protruding column 35.

[0243] The rotating member 3 is drivingly connected with the driven member, and the driven member comprises a first driven member, which can be the first connecting rod 1 or the second connecting rod 2. The following will be described by taking the first driven member as the first connecting rod 1 as an example. Figure 11 As shown in the figure, the first driven member comprises a first driven part, and the surface of the rotating member 3 comprises a first surface 306, a plurality of first driving parts are arranged on the first surface 306, and the plurality of first driving parts are configured to cooperate with the first driven part to drive the first driven member to move; at least two of the plurality of first driving parts are arranged in sequence along the circumference of the rotating member 3, so that the layout of the plurality of first driving parts is more reasonable, and the size of the rotating member 3 is reduced. For example, the plurality of first driving parts comprise a first protruding column 31 and a second protruding column 32, which are arranged in sequence along the circumference of the rotating member 3.

[0244] Optionally, the distance between at least two of the plurality of first driving parts and the rotation center of the rotating member 3 is not equal, so that the layout of the plurality of first driving parts is more reasonable, and the size of the rotating member 3 is reduced. For example, the plurality of first driving parts comprise a fourth protruding column 34 and a first protruding column 31, and the distance between the fourth protruding column 34 and the rotation center of the rotating member 3 is less than the distance between the first protruding column 31 and the rotation center of the rotating member 3.

[0245] The heights of at least two of the plurality of first driving parts are not equal, so that the first driving parts are arranged staggeredly in the thickness direction of the rotating member 3. One of the first driving part and the first driven part is a first slot structure, and the other is a first column structure, and the first column structure is located in the matched first slot structure and can move relative to the first slot structure. When the first driving part is the first column structure, i.e. at least one of the first protruding column 31, the second protruding column 32, the fourth protruding column 34 and the tenth protruding column 36, the height of the first driving part is the height of the protruding column protruding from the first surface 306; when the first driving part is the first slot structure, i.e. at least one of the first driving slot 11, the second driving slot 12, the fourth driving slot 13, the ninth driving slot 14 and the eleventh driving slot 16, the height of the first driving part is the depth of the slot.

[0246] At least two of the plurality of first column structures are matched with the same first slot structure. The heights of the at least two of the plurality of first column structures are equal, and the distances from the rotating center of the rotating member are equal. For example, the at least two of the first column structures include the fourth protruding column and the tenth protruding column, both of which are matched with the ninth driving slot, and the distances from the rotating center of the rotating member are equal.

[0247] Optionally, the rotating member 3 includes a rotating body 38 and a cantilever 39, the rotating center of the rotating member 3 is arranged at the rotating body 38, the cantilever 39 is arranged outside the rotating body 38, part of the first driving parts are arranged at the rotating body 38, and part of the first driving parts are arranged at the cantilever 39.

[0248] The rotating body 38 is circular, and the cantilever 39 is arranged outside the circle and in the same plane as the circle. It can be understood that part of the circumferential edge of the circle protrudes outward to form the cantilever 39. By arranging the cantilever 39 and arranging part of the first driving parts on the cantilever 39, the distance requirement of the first driving parts from the rotating center of the rotating member 3 can be met, and the volume of the rotating member 3 can be reduced, and the cost of the rotating member 3 can be reduced.

[0249] Optionally, the number of cantilevers 39 is a plurality, and at least one first driving part is arranged on each cantilever 39. As shown in Figure 11 The number of cantilevers 39 is two, and one first driving part is arranged on each of the two cantilevers 39, so that the distance requirement between the first driving parts arranged on the cantilevers 39 can be met, and the amount of material used for the rotating member 3 can be reduced.

[0250] Optionally, the number of cantilevers 39 is a plurality, and the lengths of the plurality of cantilevers 39 are equal or not equal.

[0251] By arranging the lengths of the cantilevers 39 to be equal or not equal, the distance of the first driving parts arranged on the cantilevers 39 from the rotating center of the rotating member 3 can be changed. As shown in Figure 11 The lengths of the two cantilevers 39 are equal.

[0252] Optionally, the driven member further comprises a second driven member, in the case that the first driven member is the first connecting rod 1, the second driven member is the second connecting rod 2, and in the case that the first driven member is the second connecting rod 2, the second driven member is the first connecting rod 1.

[0253] The second driven member comprises a plurality of second driven parts, and the surface of the rotating member 3 further comprises a second surface 307, which is arranged opposite to the first surface 306 and is provided with a plurality of second driving parts configured to cooperate with the second driven parts to drive the second driven member to move; at least two of the plurality of second driving parts are sequentially arranged along the circumference of the rotating member 3, so that the layout of the plurality of second driving parts is more reasonable, and the size of the rotating member 3 is reduced. For example, the plurality of second driving parts comprises a third protruding column 33 and a fifth protruding column 35, which are sequentially arranged along the circumference of the rotating member 3.

[0254] Optionally, at least one of the plurality of first driving parts corresponds to a second driving part, for example, as shown in Figure 12 The number of second driving parts is two, which respectively correspond to two first driving parts, that is, the distance from the rotating center of the rotating member 3 is equal and located on the same radial direction of the rotating member 3. The second protruding column 32 in the first driving part corresponds to the third protruding column 33 in the second driving part. When the air deflector 1002 is in the closed position, the second protruding column 32 is located in the second driving groove 12, and the third protruding column 33 is located in the third driving groove 21. When the air deflector 1002 starts to move from the closed position, the second protruding column 32 slides relative to the second driving groove 12 to provide driving force for the first connecting rod 1, and the third protruding column 33 is located in the third driving groove 21, and the third protruding column 33 slides relative to the third driving groove 21 to provide driving force for the second connecting rod 2. When the air deflector 1002 starts to move from the closed position, the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2 can move synchronously and the difference in movement stroke is small, and the air deflector 1002 is first extended to avoid a large difference in the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2 at the beginning, which causes the air deflector 1002 to rotate too early and interfere with the shell 1001.

[0255] The height of the first driving part and the corresponding second driving part is equal, so that when the corresponding first driving part and second driving part drive the first driven member and the second driven member respectively, the forces received from the first driven member and the second driven member are approximately equal, so that the rotating member 3 can rotate smoothly.

[0256] Optionally, the driving mechanism for the air conditioner air deflector comprises a driven part, a rotating part 3, a first sliding column and a first sliding groove.

The circular arc-shaped groove has a simple forming process, and the cooperation of the circular arc-shaped groove and the first sliding column can simplify the movement track of the driven part. During the opening process of the air deflector 1002, the position of the driven part changes, and the center position of the rotating part 3 does not change, so that the position of the first sliding groove relative to the center of the rotating part 3 changes when the air deflector 1002 is at different positions, and the position of the air deflector 1002 needs to be limited when the center of the first sliding groove and the center of the rotating part 3 are limited.

[0257] The first sliding groove can be a ninth driving groove 14, and correspondingly, the first sliding column is a fourth convex column 34.

[0258] Optionally, the center of the first sliding groove during the movement of the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position is the center of the rotating part 3. At this time, the first sliding groove is arranged on the first connecting rod 1.

[0260] The second sliding groove can be an eleventh driving groove 16, and the second sliding column is a second convex column 32.

[0261] Optionally, the second sliding column is out of the second sliding groove when the deflector 1002 moves from the sixth position to the fourth position, so as to avoid the second sliding groove being too long, wherein the deflector 1002 sequentially passes through the second position, the sixth position, the fifth position and the fourth position during the opening process; and / or the radius of the circle where the first sliding groove is located is not equal to the radius of the circle where the second sliding groove is located, for example, the radius of the circle where the first sliding groove is located is smaller than the radius of the circle where the second sliding groove is located; and / or the first sliding groove and the second sliding groove are sequentially arranged on the two sides of the rotation center of the rotating member 3 during the movement of the deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position.

[0262] Optionally, the center of the circle where the first sliding groove is located deviates from the rotation center of the rotating member 3 during the movement of the deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position. At this time, the first sliding groove is located on the second connecting rod 2.

[0263] The first sliding groove is the thirteenth driving groove 24, and the first sliding column is the fifth convex column 35.

[0264] The driving mechanism for the air deflector further comprises a fourth sliding column and a fourth sliding groove. The fourth sliding column is arranged on the driven member or the rotating member 3 where the first sliding column is located. The fourth sliding groove is arranged on the driven member or the rotating member 3 where the first sliding groove is located. During the movement of the deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position, the fourth sliding column is located in the fourth sliding groove and can slide relative to the fourth sliding groove to drive the movement of the driven member. Wherein, the first sliding groove and the fourth sliding groove are both circular arcs and the circles where they are located are concentric circles.

[0265] At this time, the fourth sliding groove is the tenth driving groove 22, and the fourth sliding column is the third convex column 33.

[0266] During the opening process of the deflector 1002, the deflector 1002 sequentially passes through the first position, the third position, the second position, the fifth position and the fourth position. The first position is the closed position, the third position is the cooling flat blowing position, the second position is the maximum air supply position, the fifth position is the ring air supply position, and the fourth position is the heating lower blowing position, or the third position is the heating lower blowing position, and the fourth position is the cooling flat blowing position. In the drawings, the third position is the cooling flat blowing position, and the fourth position is the heating lower blowing position. As shown in FIG. 1, when the deflector 1002 starts to move from the closed position, the first convex column 31 is located in the first driving groove 11, the second convex column 32 is located in the second driving groove 12, and the fourth convex column 34 is located in the fourth driving groove 13, so as to jointly drive the first connecting rod 1 to move. At this time, as shown in FIG. 2, the third convex column 33 is located in the third driving groove 21 and slides in the first direction. Figure 2 Figure 3 Figure 13 14 ​​​As shown, before reaching the third position, the first protrusion 31 disengages from the first drive groove 11, the second protrusion 32 remains in the second drive groove 12, the fourth protrusion 34 remains in the fourth drive groove 13, and the fifth protrusion 35 slides into the fifth drive groove 23, until the air guide plate 1002 moves to the third position, as shown. Figure 33 As shown, in the third position, the third protrusion 33 reaches the first end 211. Then, the air guide plate 1002 continues to open, and the third protrusion 33 moves along the second direction. When it reaches the second position, as... Figure 15 and 16 As shown, the second protrusion 32 slides into the eleventh drive groove 16, the fourth protrusion 34 disengages from the fourth drive groove 13 and slides into the ninth drive groove 14, the third protrusion 33 slides into the tenth drive groove 22, and the fifth protrusion 35 slides into the thirteenth drive groove 24. Figures 17 to 20 As shown, as the air guide plate 1002 continues to open, the first protrusion 31 and the second protrusion 32 successively pass through the through-hole 131.

[0267] Example 2:

[0268] The difference from Embodiment 1 is that, as Figures 23 to 40 As shown, the first drive groove 11 is a straight groove and the second drive groove 12 is a curved groove. The first drive groove 11 and the second drive groove 12 intersect, which makes full use of the space of the first connecting rod 1 or rotating member 3 where the first drive groove 11 and the second drive groove 12 are located, and avoids the first connecting rod 1 or rotating member 3 from being too large.

[0269] Optionally, such as Figure 30 As shown, the first groove structure also includes a ninth drive groove 14. During the process of the air guide plate 1002 opening from the second position to the fourth position, the fourth protrusion 34 is disposed in the ninth drive groove 14 and can slide relative to the ninth drive groove 14. The ninth drive groove 14 is an arc-shaped groove, and the center of the circle where the arc-shaped groove is located is the rotation center of the rotating component 3 during the process of the air guide plate 1002 moving from the second position to the fourth position.

[0270] The fourth protrusion 34 is adapted to the size of the ninth drive groove 14.

[0271] like Figure 34 As shown, when the air guide plate 1002 continues to open from the second position, the fourth protrusion 34 slides from the fourth drive groove 13 into the ninth drive groove 14 and slides relative to the ninth drive groove 14. The first protrusion 31 comes out from the first drive groove 11, and the second protrusion 32 also comes out from the second drive groove 12. The ninth drive groove 14 is an arc-shaped groove, and the center of the ninth drive groove 14 is the rotation center of the rotating member 3. Thus, when the air guide plate 1002 continues to open from the second position, the rotating member 3 rotates, and the fourth protrusion 34 rotates relative to the ninth drive groove 14 around the rotation center of the rotating member 3, while the first connecting rod 1 remains stationary.

[0272] Optionally, in the case that the first slot structure is provided on the first connecting rod 1, the first driving slot 11 and the ninth driving slot 14 are sequentially arranged along the length direction of the second connecting rod 2, and / or the second driving slot 12 and the ninth driving slot 14 are sequentially arranged along the length direction of the second connecting rod 2.

[0273] With the above arrangement, in the initial stage of opening the air deflector 1002, the first protruding column 31 cooperates with the first driving slot 11, and the second protruding column 32 cooperates with the second driving slot 12. As the air deflector 1002 is opened, the second connecting rod 2 extends outward from the air outlet, and the first protruding column 31 is separated from the first driving slot 11, and the second protruding column 32 is separated from the second driving slot 12. The fourth protruding column 34 enters the ninth driving slot 14 and cooperates with the ninth driving slot 14, thereby meeting the requirements for the movement trajectory of the second connecting rod 2. With the above arrangement, the size of the second connecting rod 2 in the width direction can be reduced.

[0274] Optionally, as shown in FIG. 1B, the first slot structure further includes an eleventh driving slot 16. In the process of opening the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position, the second protruding column 32 slides into the eleventh driving slot 16 and can slide relative to the eleventh driving slot 16. In the process of moving the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position, the eleventh driving slot 16 is a circular arc slot with a center of rotation located at the rotation center of the rotating member 3 and intersects with the second driving slot 12. Figure 16

[0275] The size of the second protruding column 32 and the eleventh driving slot 16 is matched.

[0276] In the process of opening the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position, the second protruding column 32 slides from the second driving slot 12 into the eleventh driving slot 16 and is at least partially located in the eleventh driving slot 16. The fourth protruding column 34 is always located in the ninth driving slot 14. Therefore, the cooperation of the second protruding column 32 and the second driving slot 12, the cooperation of the fourth protruding column 34 and the ninth driving slot 14, and the same center of the eleventh driving slot 16 and the ninth driving slot 14 can achieve the circular arc movement trajectory of the second connecting rod 2 and enhance the stability of the movement of the second connecting rod 2.

[0277] The eleventh driving slot 16 intersects with the second driving slot 12 to enhance the integration of the first connecting rod 1 or the rotating member 3 provided with the eleventh driving slot 16 and the second driving slot 12 and reduce the size of the first connecting rod 1 or the rotating member 3.

In the process of moving the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position, the eleventh driving slot 16 is a circular arc slot with a center of rotation located at the rotation center of the rotating member 3 and intersects with the second driving slot 12.

[0280] The cooperation of the third protruding column 33 and the third driving slot 21 and the cooperation of the fifth protruding column 35 and the fifth driving slot 23 jointly drive the second connecting rod 2 to move, and under the cooperation of the first connecting rod 1, the air deflector 1002 is moved from the first position to the second position. During the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the first position to the second position, the movement trajectory of the second connecting rod 2 is a straight line, therefore, the third driving slot 21 and the fifth driving slot 23 are designed as straight-line slots, which can not only meet the movement trajectory of the second connecting rod 2, but also simplify the structure of the third driving slot 21 and the fifth driving slot 23.

[0281] Optionally, the third driving slot 21 and the fifth driving slot 23 are both arranged on the second connecting rod 2, and the third driving slot 21 and the fifth driving slot 23 are both not parallel to the length direction of the second connecting rod 2, so that when the third protruding column 33 cooperates with the third driving slot 21, the third driving slot 21 can be applied with a force to drive the second connecting rod 2 to move, and when the fifth protruding column 35 cooperates with the fifth driving slot 23, the fifth driving slot 23 can be applied with a force to drive the second connecting rod 2 to move.

[0282] The extension line of the third driving slot 21 intersects with the fifth driving slot 23, which on the one hand meets the requirement of the movement trajectory of the second connecting rod 2, and on the other hand reduces the volume occupied by the third driving slot 21 and the fifth driving slot 23.

[0283] Optionally, the second slot structure further includes a tenth driving slot 22, the tenth driving slot 22 is in communication with the third driving slot 21, and during the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the second position to the fourth position, the third protruding column 33 is located in the tenth driving slot 22 and can slide relative to the tenth driving slot 22; wherein the communication part of the tenth driving slot 22 and the third driving slot 21 forms an angle, and the tenth driving slot 22 is a circular-arc slot.

[0284] The third protruding column 33 is matched in size with the tenth driving slot 22.

[0285] When the air deflector 1002 continues to open from the second position, the third protrusion 33 is out of the third driving slot 21, slides into the tenth driving slot 22, and cooperates with the tenth driving slot 22. The tenth driving slot 22 is a circular arc slot, so that the cooperation between the third protrusion 33 and the tenth driving slot 22 can drive the second connecting rod 2 to make a circular arc movement.

[0286] Optionally, the second slot structure further comprises a thirteenth driving slot 24, the thirteenth driving slot 24 is in communication with the fifth driving slot 23, and the fifth protrusion 35 is located in the thirteenth driving slot 24 and can slide relative to the thirteenth driving slot 24 during the process that the air deflector 1002 opens from the second position to the fourth position; wherein the communication position of the thirteenth driving slot 24 and the fifth driving slot 23 forms an angle, and the thirteenth driving slot 24 is a circular arc slot.

[0287] The fifth protrusion 35 is matched in size with the thirteenth driving slot 24.

[0288] When the air deflector 1002 continues to open from the second position, the fifth protrusion 35 is out of the fifth driving slot 23, slides into the thirteenth driving slot 24, and cooperates with the thirteenth driving slot 24. The thirteenth driving slot 24 is a circular arc slot, so that the cooperation between the fifth protrusion 35 and the thirteenth driving slot 24 can drive the second connecting rod 2 to make a circular arc movement.

[0289] Optionally, the second protrusion structure further comprises a fourteenth protrusion 37; the second slot structure further comprises a fourteenth driving slot 26, the fourteenth protrusion 37 is arranged in the fourteenth driving slot 26 and can slide relative to the fourteenth driving slot 26 during the process that the air deflector 1002 opens from the second position to the fourth position; wherein the fourteenth driving slot 26 is a circular arc slot.

[0290] The fourteenth protrusion 37 is matched in size with the fourteenth driving slot 26.

[0362] The driving mechanism for the air deflector of the air conditioner further comprises a third sliding column and a third sliding groove, one of which is arranged on the driven member, and the other is arranged on the rotating member 3; during the movement of the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position, the third sliding column is at least partially located in the third sliding groove and slides relative to the third sliding groove; wherein the third sliding groove is a circular-arc-shaped groove, and the center of the circular-arc-shaped groove is the rotation center of the rotating member 3 during the movement of the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position.

[0363] The third sliding groove can be the twelfth driving groove 17, and the third sliding column can be the first protruding column 31.

[0364] Optionally, the radius of the circle in which the third sliding groove is located is not equal to the radius of the circle in which the second sliding groove is located, for example, the radius of the third sliding groove is greater than the radius of the second sliding groove; and / or the third sliding groove and the second sliding groove are located on the same side of the rotation center of the rotating member 3 during the movement of the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position.

[0365] When the air deflector 1002 starts to move from the closed position, as shown in Figure 25 , the first protruding column 31 is located in the first driving groove 11, and the second protruding column 32 is located in the second driving groove 12 to jointly drive the first connecting rod 1 to move, at this time, as shown in Figure 26 , the fifth protruding column 35 is located in the fifth driving groove 23 and slides in the first direction, before reaching the third position, the third protruding column 33 slides into the third driving groove 21 in the fourth direction, as shown in Figure 34 , at the third position, the fifth protruding column 35 is located at the first end 211, and the third protruding column 33 is located at the third end 213. Subsequently, the air deflector 1002 continues to open, the fifth protruding column 35 slides in the second direction, the third protruding column 33 slides in the third direction, and the fourteenth protruding column 37 slides into the communication groove 25. As shown in Figure 35 and Figures 36 , when reaching the second position, the first protruding column 31 is out of the first driving groove 11 and slides into the twelfth driving groove 17, the second protruding column 32 is out of the second driving groove 12 and slides into the eleventh driving groove 16, the fourth protruding column 34 and the tenth protruding column 36 successively slide into the ninth driving groove 14, the fifth protruding column 35 slides into the thirteenth driving groove 24, the third protruding column 33 slides into the tenth driving groove 22, and the fourteenth protruding column 37 slides into the fourteenth driving groove 26, and then the air deflector 1002 continues to open to the fourth position, as shown in Figures 37 to 40 .

[0366] Embodiment three:

[0367] The difference from embodiment two is that, as shown in Figure 41 , the end of the eleventh driving groove on the first connecting rod coincides with the twelfth driving groove. During the opening of the air deflector, the second protruding column moves in the second driving groove, the eleventh driving groove and the twelfth driving groove in turn, and finally comes out of the twelfth driving groove.

[0368] In Figure 44 , the distance between the fourth protruding column 34 and the tenth protruding column 36 is smaller than Figure 32 , the distance between the fourth protruding column 34 and the tenth protruding column 36 is increased, so that as the rotating member rotates, the fourth protruding column enters the ninth driving groove 14 first, and then the rotating member needs to rotate a larger angle before the tenth protruding column enters the ninth driving groove 14, so that the tenth protruding column enters the ninth driving groove more smoothly.

[0369] The slot wall of the opening end of the ninth driving slot is provided with a clearance slot 141. The clearance slot is in communication with the ninth driving slot. The fourth protruding column and the ninth protruding column enter the ninth driving slot through the opening end of the ninth driving slot during the opening process of the air deflector. The depth of the clearance slot is different from the depth of the ninth driving slot. The heights of the fourth protruding column and the tenth protruding column are different. The height of the fourth protruding column is consistent with the depth of the ninth driving slot. The height of the tenth protruding column is consistent with the depth of the clearance slot. As shown in Figure 41 、 Figure 46 , the height of the fourth protruding column is greater than the height of the tenth protruding column, and the depth of the ninth driving slot is greater than the depth of the clearance slot. During the opening process of the air deflector, the fourth protruding column enters the ninth driving slot through the opening end of the ninth driving slot, and the fourth protruding column enters the ninth driving slot through the clearance slot. The provision of the clearance slot can expand the size of the opening end of the ninth driving slot, so that the tenth protruding column can smoothly enter the ninth driving slot, avoiding collision with the ninth driving slot.

[0370] The ninth driving slot 14 intersects the second driving slot 12. Thus, when the second protruding column slides into the intersection of the second driving slot and the ninth driving slot (H in Figure 41 ), the second protruding column can pass through the ninth driving slot and then slide into the second driving slot. Since the depth of the ninth driving slot 14 is greater than the depth of the second driving slot 12, the second protruding column is not adapted to the ninth driving slot. Thus, when the second protruding column passes through the ninth driving slot, there is no or little force between the second protruding column and the ninth driving slot, which does not affect the movement trajectory of the first connecting rod. During the opening process of the air deflector, the movement trajectory of the second protruding column is indicated by the arrow in Figure 41 .

[0371] At least two first columnar structures in the plurality of first columnar structures are matched with the same first slot-shaped structure. The distances from the at least two first columnar structures to the rotation center of the rotating member are not equal. For example, the at least two first columnar structures are the fourth protruding column and the tenth protruding column, the same first slot-shaped structure is the ninth driving slot, the opening end of the ninth driving slot is provided with a clearance slot, and the distances from the fourth protruding column and the ninth protruding column to the rotation center of the rotating member are not equal.

[0372] Embodiment Four

[0373] On the basis of the embodiment one, the embodiment two or the embodiment three, as shown in Figure 42 , the connecting part of the first connecting rod 1 is rotationally connected with the air deflector 1002 through a first rotation shaft; the second connecting rod 2 is rotationally connected with the air deflector 1002 through a second rotation shaft; the rotating member 3 is drivingly connected with the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2 to drive the air deflector 1002 to open and close; wherein, during the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the first position to the second position, the movement of the rotationally connected part of the second connecting rod 2 with the air deflector 1002 includes a straight line movement (such as the direction of N in Figure 28 ).

[0374] The component is rotationally connected with the air deflector 1002, and the rotational connection between the component and the air deflector 1002 is defined as follows: a first shaft hole is arranged on the component, a first rotation shaft is fixedly arranged on the air deflector 1002, located in the first shaft hole and capable of rotating relative to the first shaft hole, so that the air deflector 1002 is rotationally connected with the component, and the rotational connection between the component and the air deflector 1002 is at the first shaft hole; or a first shaft hole is arranged on the air deflector 1002, a first rotation shaft is fixedly arranged on the component, located in the first shaft hole and capable of rotating relative to the first shaft hole, so that the air deflector 1002 is rotationally connected with the component, and the rotational connection between the component and the air deflector 1002 is at the first rotation shaft; or the component is provided with a first shaft hole, the air deflector 1002 is provided with a second shaft hole, and a first rotation shaft passes through the first shaft hole and the second shaft hole, so that the air deflector 1002 is rotationally connected with the component, and the rotational connection between the component and the air deflector 1002 is at the first shaft hole.

[0375] In the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the first position to the second position, the movement of the rotational connection Y between the second connecting rod 2 and the air deflector 1002 includes a straight line movement, as shown at E in Figure 42 and Figure 43 . Under the condition that the rotating member 3 rotates by the same angle, the displacement of the second connecting rod 2 is larger, so that the movement speed of the air deflector 1002 is faster, and the response speed to the user's instruction is faster.

[0376] The air deflector 1002 passes through a third position in the process of being opened from the first position to the second position, and the air outlet direction of the air conditioner indoor unit 100 in the second position is different from the air outlet direction of the indoor unit 100 in the third position, that is, in the process of being opened from the first position to the second position, the air deflector 1002 not only extends along the air outlet direction of the air outlet, but also rotates, so that the air outlet direction of the air outlet changes.

[0377] Optionally, in the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the first position to the second position, the rotational connection between the second connecting rod 2 and the air deflector 1002 moves along a first straight line direction (such as the direction of N in Figure 28 , the direction of E in Figure 42 , 43 ), which can not only improve the movement speed of the air deflector 1002, but also simplify the design process of the driving mechanism for the air deflector of the air conditioner.

[0378] Optionally, in the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the first position to the second position, the movement trajectory of the rotational connection R (i.e., the connecting portion) between the first connecting rod 1 and the air deflector 1002 includes a straight line segment trajectory and / or a curve segment trajectory, in other words, at least one of the straight line segment trajectory and the curve segment trajectory.

[0379] When the motion trajectory of the first link 1 at the point of rotational connection with the air guide plate 1002 includes a straight line segment, it can be a straight line. Figure 43 The L in the middle can also be a broken line formed by multiple connected straight lines; when the motion trajectory of the first connecting rod 1 at the rotational connection with the air guide plate 1002 includes a curved segment trajectory, the radii of curvature of at least two points on the curved segment trajectory are the same or different.

[0380] Optionally, during the process of the air guide plate 1002 opening from the first position to the second position, the rotational connection point on the first connecting rod 1 with the air guide plate 1002 moves along the second linear direction ( Figure 43 The first straight line direction and the second straight line direction intersect, so that the air guide plate 1002 can rotate, thereby enabling the air guide plate 1002 to move from the first position to the second position.

[0381] Optionally, during the process of the air guide plate 1002 opening from the first position to the second position, the rotational connection point of the first connecting rod 1 and the air guide plate 1002 successively moves linearly along the second straight line direction and moves curvilinearly along the curve direction. This motion trajectory can not only meet the requirements of the air guide position of the air guide plate 1002, but also simplify the design of the drive mechanism used for the air guide plate of the air conditioner.

[0382] The angle between the first straight direction and the second straight direction is less than or equal to 30°. The angle between the first straight direction and the second straight direction is small, such as 0°, 5°, 10°, 15°, 20°, 25°, or 30°. This allows the movement trajectories of the rotational connection points on the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2 with the air guide plate 1002 to be parallel or approximately parallel when the air guide plate 1002 is opened from the first position. This ensures that the air guide plate 1002 can extend in a straight line or with a slight rotation when it starts moving from the first position, thus avoiding interference between the air guide plate 1002 and the housing 1001 when the air guide plate 1002 rotates.

[0383] Optionally, during the process of the air guide plate 1002 opening from the first position to the second position, the rotational connection point on the first connecting rod 1 and the air guide plate 1002 sequentially moves along the second straight direction ( Figure 42 (O) moves in a straight line, along the curve direction ( Figure 42 P) moves in a curved path along the direction of the third straight line ( Figure 42 The Q) moves in a straight line. This motion trajectory can not only meet the requirements for the air guiding position of the air guide plate 1002, but also simplify the design of the drive mechanism used for the air conditioning air guide plate.

[0384] Optionally, the first straight line direction and the third straight line direction intersect and the included angle is greater than the included angle between the first straight line direction and the second straight line direction.

[0385] In the initial stage of opening of the air deflector 1002 from the first position, the rotation connection of the first connecting rod 1 with the air deflector 1002 first moves along the second straight line direction and then moves along the third straight line direction. In the initial stage of opening of the air deflector 1002 from the first position, the air deflector 1002 is relatively close to the shell 1001, so the air deflector 1002 needs to be first extended and then rotated or extended and rotated at a small angle. The rotation needs to be controlled at a small angle, so the included angle between the first straight line direction and the second straight line direction is small. With the opening of the air deflector 1002, the distance between the air deflector 1002 and the shell 1001 increases, and the air deflector 1002 can rotate at a large angle to reach the target air deflection position as soon as possible, so the included angle between the first straight line direction and the third straight line direction is large.

[0386] The curve direction is on the same side of the first straight line direction as the third straight line direction, so that the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2 move smoothly and avoid jamming during movement.

[0387] Optionally, in the process of opening of the air deflector 1002 from the first position to the second position, the distance between the movement track of the rotation connection of the first connecting rod 1 with the air deflector 1002 and the movement track of the rotation connection of the second connecting rod 2 with the air deflector 1002 increases with the opening of the air deflector 1002.

[0388] In the initial stage of opening of the air deflector 1002 from the first position, the distance between the movement track of the rotation connection of the first connecting rod 1 with the air deflector 1002 and the movement track of the rotation connection of the second connecting rod 2 with the air deflector 1002 is small, which can avoid large-angle rotation of the air deflector 1002 and interference between the air deflector 1002 and the shell 1001. With further opening of the air deflector 1002, the distance between the movement track of the rotation connection of the first connecting rod 1 with the air deflector 1002 and the movement track of the rotation connection of the second connecting rod 2 with the air deflector 1002 gradually increases, which can make the air deflector 1002 quickly flip to reach the target air deflection position as soon as possible.

[0389] Optionally, the first position is a closed position in which the air deflector 1002 closes the air outlet, and the second position is a maximum air supply position.

[0390] Optionally, the driving mechanism for the air deflector of the air conditioner further comprises a guide member fixed to the shell 1001.

[0391] The connecting rod is provided with a guide portion, and the guide member is provided with a guide matching portion matched with the guide portion to guide the movement of the first connecting rod 1 and / or the second connecting rod 2. The guide portion includes a first guide portion 19 provided on the first connecting rod 1 and a second guide portion 28 provided on the second connecting rod 2, and the guide matching portion includes a first guide matching portion 512 and a second guide matching portion 521.

[0392] The guide member is provided with a first guide matching part 512; the first connecting rod 1 comprises a first rod body 18, the rotating member 3 is drivingly connected with the first rod body 18, the first rod body 18 is provided with a first guide part 19, the first guide part 19 matches with the first guide matching part 512 to guide the movement track of the first connecting rod 1; during the process that the air deflector 1002 is opened from the first position to the second position, the movement track of the first guide part 19 is a curve track to cooperate with the second connecting rod 2 to realize the movement of the air deflector 1002 between the first position and the second position.

[0393] One of the guide part and the guide matching part comprises a guide column, and the other comprises a guide groove. During the opening process of the air deflector (during the process that the air deflector is moved from the first position to the fourth position), the rotating member rotates in a set direction to drive the connecting rod assembly to move, the guide column is located in the guide groove and moves unidirectionally along the length direction of the guide groove without reverse movement. During the whole closing process of the air deflector, the guide column moves unidirectionally along the length direction of the guide groove in the reverse direction.

[0394] In this way, during the opening process of the air deflector, the motor rotates unidirectionally to drive the guide column to move unidirectionally along the length direction of the guide groove, and the unidirectional rotation of the motor can simplify the control logic of the motor. During the closing process of the air deflector, the motor reversely rotates to drive the guide column to reversely move unidirectionally along the length direction of the guide groove.

[0395] The number of the guide matching parts is at least two, and the number of the guide parts is not less than the number of the guide matching parts. That is, the number of the guide parts and the guide matching parts is at least two. The number of the guide grooves is at least two, and at least one guide column is arranged in one guide groove.

[0396] The number of the guide columns is greater than two, and the connecting lines of three guide columns among the plurality of guide columns form a triangle. And / or, the number of the guide grooves is greater than two, and the connecting lines of the middle parts of the length directions of three guide grooves among the plurality of guide grooves form a triangle.

[0397] The connecting lines of the three guide columns and / or the middle parts of the length directions of the three guide grooves form a triangle, which can define a plane instead of being located on the same straight line, so as to guide the connecting rod to move in the plane.

[0398] The guide member comprises a mechanism box 5, a box cover 51, a first connecting rod 1, a second connecting rod 2 and a box body 52 which are sequentially arranged. As shown in Figure 4 and 6The first guide matching part 512 is arranged on the surface of the box cover 51 facing the first connecting rod 1. One of the first guide part 19 and the first guide matching part 512 is a first guide column, and the other is a first guide groove. The first guide column is located in the first guide groove and slides relative to the first guide groove. The first guide column and the first guide groove are matched. The shape of the first guide groove is the same as the movement track of the first connecting rod 1 at the position where the first guide groove or the first guide column matched with the first guide groove is located. The movement track of the first connecting rod 1 is guided and further limited by the matching of the first guide column and the first guide groove.

[0399] The guide column includes the first guide column, and the guide groove includes the first guide groove. During the opening of the air deflector, the first guide column is located in the first guide groove and moves unidirectionally relative to the first guide groove along the length direction of the first guide groove. The movement track of the first connecting rod can be simplified, and thus the structure of the driving mechanism of the air deflector of the air conditioner can be simplified.

[0400] The first connecting rod 1 is taken by a first plane to obtain a longitudinal section of the first connecting rod 1. The movement track is different at each position on the longitudinal section. The first plane is perpendicular to the thickness direction of the first connecting rod 1 and is the plane where the length direction and the width direction of the first connecting rod 1 are located.

[0401] The number of the first guide matching parts is at least two. The number of the first guide parts is not less than the number of the first guide matching parts. When the number of the first guide parts and the number of the first guide matching parts are both greater than two, the connecting line of the plurality of first guide parts 19 does not lie on the same straight line but forms a triangle. The connecting line of three first guide matching parts in the plurality of first guide matching parts does not lie on the same straight line but forms a triangle. That is, the connecting line of three first guide columns in the plurality of first guide columns forms a triangle. The connecting line of the middle portions of the length directions of three first guide grooves in the plurality of first guide grooves forms a triangle. Thus, the plurality of first guide parts 19 can collectively guide the planar movement of the first connecting rod 1. During the opening of the air deflector, the first rod body edge extends out of the air outlet edge and rotates in the plane where the first connecting rod is located. The center of rotation during the rotation is not fixed.

[0402] The guide member is provided with a second guide matching part 521. The second connecting rod is provided with a second guide part 28. The second guide part 28 is matched with the second guide matching part 521 to guide the movement track of the second connecting rod 2.

[0403] The second guiding matching part 521 is arranged on the surface of the box body 52 facing the second connecting rod 2. One of the second guiding part 28 and the second guiding matching part 521 is a second guiding column, and the other is a second guiding groove. The second guiding column is located in the second guiding groove and slides relative to the second guiding groove. The second guiding column and the second guiding groove are matched. The shape of the second guiding groove is the same as the movement track of the second connecting rod 2, so as to guide and further limit the movement track of the second connecting rod 2 through the cooperation of the second guiding column and the second guiding groove. The guiding column includes the second guiding column, and the guiding groove includes the second guiding groove.

[0404] During the opening process of the air deflector, the second guiding column is located in the second guiding groove and moves unidirectionally along the length direction of the second guiding groove relative to the second guiding groove.

[0405] The second guiding groove includes a straight guiding segment and a curved guiding segment connected with each other. During the opening process of the air deflector, the second guiding column slides through the straight guiding segment and the curved guiding segment in sequence and moves unidirectionally in the straight guiding segment and the curved guiding segment.

[0406] The movement track of each part of the second connecting rod is the same, which is a translational movement. The shape of the second guiding groove is the same as the movement track of the second connecting rod 2. Therefore, the straight guiding segment is a straight track N, and the curved guiding segment is a circular arc track M.

[0407] The second connecting rod 2 is taken by a second plane to obtain a longitudinal section of the second connecting rod 2. The movement track of each part of the longitudinal section is the same. The second plane is perpendicular to the thickness direction of the second connecting rod 2 and is a plane in which the length direction and the width direction of the second connecting rod 2 are located.

[0408] The number of the second guiding matching parts is at least two, and the number of the second guiding parts is not less than the number of the second guiding matching parts.

[0409] When the number of the second guiding parts 28 and the number of the second guiding matching parts are both greater than two, the connecting line of the plurality of second guiding parts 28 is not located on the same straight line, and the connecting line of the plurality of second guiding matching parts is not located on the same straight line. For example, the connecting line of three second guiding parts in the plurality of second guiding parts forms a triangle; the connecting line of three second guiding matching parts in the plurality of second guiding matching parts forms a triangle, that is, the connecting line of the middle part of the length direction of three second guiding grooves in the plurality of second guiding grooves forms a triangle, and the connecting line of three second guiding columns in the plurality of second guiding columns forms a triangle. In this way, the plurality of second guiding parts 28 can collectively guide the second connecting rod 2 to make a planar movement during the movement of the air deflector from the second position to the fourth position. When the air deflector moves from the first position to the second position, the second connecting rod moves linearly.

[0410] In the first embodiment, the number of the first guide columns, the first guide grooves, the second guide columns and the second guide grooves is two. In the second embodiment, the number of the first guide columns, the first guide grooves, the second guide columns and the second guide grooves is three.

[0411] Optionally, during the opening of the air deflector, the movement trajectory of the first rod body is a first curve segment trajectory, and the shape of the first guide groove is the same as the movement trajectory of the first connecting rod 1 at the position of the first guide groove or the first guide column matched with the first guide groove. Therefore, the first guide groove is a curve guide groove.

[0412] The first curve segment trajectory 513 includes a first sub-curve segment trajectory 514 and a second sub-curve segment trajectory 515 connected in sequence along the length direction of the first connecting rod 1. The connection between the first sub-curve segment trajectory 514 and the second sub-curve segment trajectory 515 forms an angle W.

[0413] The curve guide groove includes a first sub-curve guide groove and a second sub-curve guide groove arranged in sequence along the length direction of the first connecting rod, and the connection between the first sub-curve guide groove and the second sub-curve guide groove forms an angle. The first sub-curve guide groove is the first sub-curve segment trajectory 514, and the second sub-curve guide groove is the second sub-curve segment trajectory 515.

[0414] During the opening of the air deflector, the first guide column slides through the first sub-curve guide groove and the second sub-curve guide groove in sequence, and is a unidirectional movement in the first sub-curve guide groove and the second sub-curve guide groove.

[0415] During the opening of the air deflector, the first guide column moves relative to the first sub-curve guide groove from one end of the first sub-curve guide groove away from the second sub-curve guide groove, moves unidirectionally along the first sub-curve guide groove to the angle W, enters the second sub-curve guide groove, and moves unidirectionally along the second sub-curve guide groove away from the angle, until reaching one end of the second sub-curve guide groove away from the angle.

[0416] Optionally, during the opening of the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position, the movement trajectory of the second connecting rod 2 at the rotating connection with the air deflector 1002 is an arc trajectory, for example, Figure 28 a middle circular arc trajectory M, Figure 42 and Figure 43 a middle circular arc trajectory F. The circular arc trajectory can simplify the design of the driving mechanism for the air deflector of the air conditioner.

[0417] In the closed position, the first guide post is located at the end of the first sub-curved segment trajectory 514 away from the second sub-curved segment trajectory 515, and the second guide post is located at the end of the linear portion of the second guide slot away from the arc-shaped portion. As the air deflector 1002 is opened, the first guide post moves along the first sub-curved segment trajectory 514 towards the second sub-curved segment trajectory 515, and the second guide post moves along the linear portion and towards the arc-shaped portion. In the cooling flat-blowing position, the first guide post reaches the corner, and then the first guide post enters the second sub-curved segment trajectory 515 and moves away from the first sub-curved segment trajectory 514. In the maximum air supply position, the first guide post enters the end of the second sub-curved segment trajectory 515 away from the first sub-curved segment trajectory 514 and remains stationary, and the second guide post enters the connection between the linear portion and the arc-shaped portion, and then the second guide post moves along the arc-shaped portion until the heating lower-blowing position.

[0418] Optionally, during the opening of the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position, the first connecting rod 1 remains stationary, and the second connecting rod 2 rotates about the axis of the first rotation axis at the rotation connection with the air deflector 1002.

[0419] In this way, during the opening of the air deflector 1002 from the second position to the fourth position, the rotating member 3 does not need to drive the first connecting rod 1 to move, thereby simplifying the structure of the driving mechanism for the air deflector of the air conditioner, and the second connecting rod 2 rotates about the axis of the first rotation axis at the rotation connection with the air deflector 1002, thereby driving the air deflector 1002 to flip, thereby meeting the requirements for the air deflection position of the air deflector 1002.

[0420] Optionally, the center of the arc-shaped trajectory M and the linear motion trajectory in the first linear direction are located on the same side of the arc-shaped trajectory M, so that the second connecting rod 2 rotates along the arc-shaped trajectory M after extending in the first linear direction.

[0421] The circumference of the arc-shaped trajectory M is smaller than the length of the linear motion trajectory in the first linear direction.

[0422] The application also provides an air conditioner comprising an indoor unit 100, wherein the indoor unit 100 comprises an air deflector 1002 and a driving mechanism for the air deflector of the air conditioner according to any one of the above embodiments, and the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2 are rotationally connected with the air deflector 1002.
