DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] Below, the present invention is further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0038] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside" and "outside" etc. indicating directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0039] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used in the specification of the present invention herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0040] The present invention discloses an air guide plate assembly 2, which is used to be assembled at the air outlet 11 of the air conditioner, and rotates and guides the air flow to be discharged in different directions when it is turned on. Figures 1 to 10As shown, the air guide plate assembly 2 of the present invention includes a first air guide plate 21 and a second air guide plate 22, wherein the first air guide plate 21 has a first rotating shaft 24, and the second air guide plate 22 has a second rotating shaft 25. The first rotating shaft 24 and the second rotating shaft 25 are driven by a motor 31 to respectively drive the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 to rotate, so as to adjust the position of the air guide plate assembly 2 at the air outlet 11; the axis of the first rotating shaft 24 and the axis of the second rotating shaft 25 are coincident or staggered. When the first air guide plate 21 rotates to be parallel to the second air guide plate 22, the projections of the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 on the same plane are connected to each other, and a double-layer air guide structure is formed, and the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 are arranged front and back in the air outlet direction of the airflow.

[0041] On the basis of this structure, when the air guide plate assembly 2 of the present invention is used, the air guide plate assembly 2 is first installed at the air outlet 11 of the air conditioner body 1 during assembly, wherein the first air guide plate 21 is vertically installed at the air outlet 11, and the second air guide plate 22 is horizontally installed at the air outlet 11, and the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 jointly close the air outlet 11. Then, the output end of the driving motor 31 is connected to the first rotating shaft 24 of the first air guide plate 21 and the second rotating shaft 25 of the second air guide plate 22, wherein the first rotating shaft 24 and the second rotating shaft 25 are arranged on the same straight line or on two straight lines parallel to each other.

[0042] It should be noted that a single motor 31 is used to drive the air guide assembly 2 in the present invention. Specifically, the motor 31 drives the first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22 to rotate through the transmission mechanism 32. The transmission mechanism 32 includes a transmission gear and an output gear, and the output gear is connected to the first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22. By providing a toothed segment and a toothless segment in the transmission gear of the second air guide 22, the motor 31 can first drive the first air guide 21 to rotate. When the first air guide 21 rotates from a vertical position to a horizontal position, the toothed segment in the transmission gear of the second air guide 22 meshes with the output gear of the second air guide 22, so that the motor 31 can simultaneously drive the first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22 to rotate in the same direction.

[0043] When the air conditioner is not in use, the air guide assembly 2 can close the air outlet 11 to prevent external dust from entering the air conditioner body 1. When the air conditioner is in use, the air guide assembly 2 rotates to open the air outlet 11. Specifically, the first air guide 21 rotates first to open part of the air outlet 11. When the first air guide 21 rotates to be parallel to the second air guide 22, the first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22 rotate together. At the same time, the first air guide 21 and the second air guide 22 form a double-layer air guide structure, thereby dividing the air outlet 11 into two layers, and the airflow that has been cooled or heated in the air conditioner can be discharged from the layered air outlet 11.

[0044] When the first air guide plate 21 rotates to be parallel to the second air guide plate 22, the motor 31 can drive the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 to rotate together in the same direction, and the two air guide plates remain parallel during the movement. When the first air guide plate 21 is parallel to the second air guide plate 22, the projections of the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 on the same plane are connected to each other, and the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 are arranged front and back in the outlet direction of the airflow, thereby extending the airflow delivery distance.

[0045] When the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 rotate, they can finely guide the airflow of the air outlet 11 of the corresponding layer, and guide the airflow in different directions at different inclination angles of the air guide plate. The combined plate structure of the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 is longer than that of a single air guide plate, thereby extending the airflow conveying distance, and the rotation angle is flexible and changeable, which can meet the various usage needs of customers.

[0046] Embodiment 1,

[0047] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 A wind deflector assembly 2 is shown, in this embodiment, the first wind deflector 21 has a first end close to the second wind deflector 22, and a first connecting arm 23 is provided on the first end, wherein the first connecting arm 23 is connected to the first wind deflector 21 at an angle, and a first rotating shaft 24 is provided on the first connecting arm 23. The second wind deflector 22 has a second end close to the first wind deflector 21, and a second rotating shaft 25 is provided on the second end, and the axis of the first rotating shaft 24 coincides with the axis of the second rotating shaft 25.

[0048] Based on this structure, see Figure 2 , two first connecting arms 23 are provided on the first end, and the two first connecting arms 23 are arranged at intervals and connected with the first air guide plate 21 at an angle of 90 degrees. During assembly, the first rotating shaft 24 is first arranged at two ends of the two first connecting arms 23 that are far away from each other, and the second rotating shaft 25 is inserted into the second end; then the second air guide plate 22 is installed between the two first connecting arms 23, and the two ends of the second rotating shaft 25 are inserted through the first connecting arms 23 on both sides and extend from the two ends of the first rotating shaft 24; finally, the first rotating shaft 24 and the second rotating shaft 25 are connected to the output end of the motor 31. Among them, the axis of the first rotating shaft 24 coincides with the axis of the second rotating shaft 25.

[0049] Thus, when the air conditioner is turned on, the motor 31 first drives the first rotating shaft 24 to rotate, thereby driving the first connecting arm 23 and the first air guide plate 21 to rotate. The first air guide plate 21 gradually opens the air outlet 11 during the process of rotating from a vertical position to a horizontal position outside the body 1, and in this process, since the toothless section in the transmission gear is adjacent to the output gear of the second air guide plate 22, the second air guide plate 22 is in a stationary state.

[0050] When the first air guide plate 21 rotates from a vertical position to a horizontal position, the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 2 are parallel to each other to form a double-layer air guide structure; since the first connecting arm 23 also rotates from a horizontal position to a vertical position, a height difference is formed between the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 2 due to the existence of the first connecting arm 23, and the first air guide plate 21 is located below the second air guide plate 22. The airflow in the body 1 is discharged horizontally along the second air guide plate 22, and part of the airflow is sent out in the direction of the first air guide plate 21 with a lower height, so that the air conditioner can achieve horizontal air discharge at two different heights; in this way, the air in the lower layer can be doubled, and at the same time, after the airflow is sent in the same direction through the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22, the transportation distance is longer.

[0051] In the existing air guide plate assembly 2, when the rotation axis of the first air guide plate 21 coincides with the rotation axis of the second air guide plate 22, the inclination angles formed by the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 when rotating at the air outlet 11 are different, and there is only one layer of air guide structure in the air outlet direction of the air flow. The air flow is discharged in different directions along the inclination directions of different air guide plates, and the delivery distance is shorter.

[0052] Therefore, in this embodiment, a connecting arm is provided on one of the air guide plates, and the connecting arm is provided at an angle to the air guide plate, so that when the air guide plate provided with the connecting arm rotates coaxially with the other air guide plate, the air guide plate provided with the connecting arm can form a parallel position with the other air guide plate, thereby achieving the same inclination angle of the two air guide plates. The two air guide plates are arranged one after the other in the air outlet direction of the air conditioner, and the airflow is discharged in the same direction through the two air guide plates, so that it can be transported farther.

[0053] After the first air guide plate 21 rotates to be parallel to the second air guide plate 22, the output gear corresponding to the second air guide plate 22 meshes with the toothed segment on the transmission gear, so that the motor 31 can drive the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 to rotate together in the same direction. Figure 5, the second air guide plate 22 rotates and enters the body 1, and the second air guide plate 22 guides the airflow in the body 1 to be sent out along the inclined direction of the second air guide plate 22. Since the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 are parallel to each other, the first air guide plate 21 can receive and guide the airflow to be sent out in the air outlet direction. In this process, the air conditioner realizes inclined air outlet; the airflow is transported farther under the guide effect of the two air guide plates, thereby improving the air supply efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0054] When the second air guide plate 22 rotates from a horizontal position to a vertical position inside the air-conditioning body 1, the first air guide plate 21 rotates from a horizontal position to a vertical position outside the air-conditioning body 1 and is located below the second air guide plate 22. The airflow from the air outlet 11 is sent out along the direction of the first air guide plate 21 to achieve vertical air outlet.

[0055] Embodiment 2,

[0056] See also Figures 4 to 7 The second type of air guide plate assembly 2 is shown. In this embodiment, the first air guide plate 21 has a first end portion close to the second air guide plate 22, a first connecting arm 23 is provided on the first end portion, and the first connecting arm 23 is connected to the first air guide plate 21 at an angle, wherein the first connecting arm 23 is provided with a first rotating shaft 24.

[0057] Correspondingly, the second air guide plate 22 has a second end portion close to the first air guide plate 21, and a second connecting arm 26 is provided on the second end portion, and the second connecting arm 26 is connected to the second air guide plate 22 at an angle, wherein a second rotating shaft 25 is provided on the second connecting arm 26, and the axis of the second rotating shaft 25 coincides with the axis of the first rotating shaft 24.

[0058] Based on this structure, see Figure 5 , two first connecting arms 23 are provided on the first end portion, the two first connecting arms 23 are arranged at intervals and connected to the first air guide plate 21 at an angle of 90 degrees; Figure 6 , two second connecting arms 26 are provided on the second end, and the two second connecting arms 26 are also arranged at intervals and connected with the second air guide plate 22 at an angle of 90 degrees. During assembly, the first rotating shaft 24 is first arranged at two ends away from each other on the two first connecting arms 23, and the second rotating shaft 25 is arranged at two ends away from each other on the two second connecting arms 26; then the two second connecting arms 26 are installed between the two first connecting arms 23, and the two ends of the second rotating shaft 25 are passed through the two first connecting arms 23 on both sides, and extend from the two ends of the first rotating shaft 24, and finally the first rotating shaft 24 and the second rotating shaft 25 are connected to the output end of the motor 31; wherein the axis of the first rotating shaft 24 coincides with the axis of the second rotating shaft 25. Among them, in order to ensure that the first air guide plate 21 can be rotated from a vertical position to a horizontal position, it is necessary to set the first connecting arm 23 at the bottom of the second air guide plate 22.

[0059] Thus, when the air conditioner is turned on, the motor 31 first drives the first rotating shaft 24 to rotate, thereby driving the first connecting arm 23 and the first air guide plate 21 to rotate. The first air guide plate 21 gradually opens the air outlet 11 during the process of rotating from a vertical position to a horizontal position outside the body 1, and in this process, since the toothless section in the transmission gear is adjacent to the output gear of the second air guide plate 22, the second air guide plate 22 is in a stationary state.

[0060] When the first air guide plate 21 rotates from a vertical position to a horizontal position, the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 2 are parallel to each other to form a double-layer air guide structure; and because the first connecting arm 23 is arranged at the bottom of the second air guide plate 22, a height difference is formed between the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 2 due to the existence of the first connecting arm 23, and the first air guide plate 21 is located below the second air guide plate 22. The airflow in the body 1 is discharged horizontally along the second air guide plate 22, and part of the airflow is sent out in the direction of the first air guide plate 21 with a lower height, so that the air conditioner can achieve horizontal air discharge at two different heights; in this way, the air in the lower layer can be doubled, and at the same time, after the airflow is sent in the same direction through the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22, the transportation distance is longer.

[0061] After the first air guide plate 21 rotates to be parallel to the second air guide plate 22, the output gear corresponding to the second rotating shaft 25 meshes with the toothed section on the transmission gear, so that the driving motor 31 can drive the first rotating shaft 24 and the second rotating shaft 25 to rotate in the same direction, and the second rotating shaft 25 drives the second connecting arm 26 and the second air guide plate 22 to rotate together when the second rotating shaft 25 rotates. Since the two air guide plates rotate synchronously when the first air guide plate 21 rotates to be parallel to the second air guide plate 22, the two air guide plates remain parallel during the rotation process.

[0062] See also Figure 7 , the second air guide plate 22 rotates and enters the body 1, and the second air guide plate 22 guides the airflow in the body 1 to be sent out along the inclined direction of the second air guide plate 22. Since the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 are parallel to each other, the first air guide plate 21 can receive and guide the airflow to be sent out in the air outlet direction. In this process, the air conditioner realizes inclined air outlet; the airflow is transported farther under the guide effect of the two air guide plates, thereby improving the air supply efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0063] When the second air guide plate 22 rotates from a horizontal position to a vertical position inside the air-conditioning body 1, the first air guide plate 21 rotates from a horizontal position to a vertical position outside the air-conditioning body 1 and is located below the second air guide plate 22. The airflow from the air outlet 11 is sent out along the direction of the first air guide plate 21 to achieve vertical air outlet.

[0064] Embodiment 3,

[0065] See also Figure 8 , Fig. 9 as well as Fig.10 The third type of air guide plate assembly 2 is shown. In this embodiment, the first air guide plate 21 has a first end portion close to the second air guide plate 22, and a first rotating shaft 24 is provided on the first end portion. Correspondingly, the second air guide plate 22 has a second end portion close to the first air guide plate 21, and a second rotating shaft 25 is provided on the second end portion. The first end portion and the second end portion abut against each other so that the axis of the first rotating shaft 24 and the axis of the second rotating shaft 25 are staggered with each other.

[0066] Based on this structure, see Fig. 9 A first rotating shaft 24 is provided at both ends of the first end, a second rotating shaft 25 is provided at both ends of the second end, and a driving motor 31 of the air conditioner is connected to the first rotating shaft 24 and the second rotating shaft 25 through a transmission mechanism 3.

[0067] It should be noted that the transmission mechanism 3 includes a transmission gear, a first output gear and a second output gear, the first output gear is connected to the first rotating shaft 24, and the second output gear is connected to the second rotating shaft 25, wherein the transmission gear is provided with a toothed section and a toothless section at a position corresponding to the second output gear. When the motor 31 is started, the motor 31 drives the transmission gear to rotate, and since the transmission gear and the first output gear are always in meshing state, the transmission gear can drive the first air guide plate 21 to rotate; since the transmission gear is provided with a toothless section, when the toothless section is adjacent to the second output gear, the second rotating shaft 25 does not rotate.

[0068] Therefore, when the transmission gear rotates to the point where the toothed segment meshes with the second output gear, the motor 31 can drive the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 to rotate together. In the present invention, the time point at which the toothed segment in the transmission gear meshes with the second output gear is set when the first air guide plate 21 rotates from a vertical state to a horizontal state. Therefore, when the first air guide plate 21 rotates to a horizontal state, the motor 31 can drive the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 to move together, thereby realizing a single motor 31 to stagger the two air guide plates.

[0069] In this way, when the air conditioner is turned on, the motor 31 drives the first rotating shaft 24 to rotate, thereby driving the first connecting arm 23 and the first air guide plate 21 to rotate. The first air guide plate 21 gradually opens the air outlet 11 during the process of rotating from a vertical position to a horizontal position outside the body 1, and during this process, the second air guide plate 22 is in a stationary state. When the first air guide plate 21 rotates to a horizontal position, the airflow of the air outlet 11 is sent out along the direction of the first air guide plate 21, and the air conditioner achieves horizontal air outlet; at the same time, the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 are parallel to each other to form a double-layer air guide structure.

[0070] After the first air guide plate 21 rotates to be parallel to the second air guide plate 22, the output gear of the second rotating shaft 25 meshes with the toothed section on the transmission gear, so that the driving motor 31 can drive the second rotating shaft 25 to rotate together, and the second rotating shaft 25 drives the second connecting arm 26 and the second air guide plate 22 to rotate together. Since the first air guide plate 21 rotates to be parallel to the second air guide plate 22, the two air guide plates rotate synchronously, so the two air guide plates remain parallel during the rotation process.

[0071] See also Fig. 9 , the second air guide plate 22 rotates and enters the body 1, and the second air guide plate 22 guides the airflow in the body 1 to be sent out along the inclined direction of the second air guide plate 22. Since the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 are parallel to each other, the first air guide plate 21 can receive and guide the airflow to be sent out in the air outlet direction. In this process, the air conditioner realizes inclined air outlet; the airflow is transported farther under the guide effect of the two air guide plates, thereby improving the air supply efficiency of the air conditioner.

[0072] When the second air guide plate 22 rotates from a horizontal position to a vertical position inside the air-conditioning body 1, the first air guide plate 21 rotates from a horizontal position to a vertical position outside the air-conditioning body 1 and is located below the second air guide plate 22. The airflow from the air outlet 11 is sent out along the direction of the first air guide plate 21 to achieve vertical air outlet.

[0073] Furthermore, there are two situations in which the axis of the first rotating shaft 24 and the axis of the second rotating shaft 25 are staggered with each other, and the two situations are described below:

[0074] In one case, the height of the axis of the first rotating shaft 24 is equal to the height of the axis of the second rotating shaft 25, so that the axis of the first rotating shaft 24 and the axis of the second rotating shaft 25 are offset in the horizontal direction.

[0075] Since the first rotating shaft 24 in this embodiment is arranged on the first end and the second rotating shaft 25 is arranged on the second end, the first end and the second end are arranged to abut against each other in the horizontal direction. When the height of the axis center of the first rotating shaft 24 is equal to the height of the axis center of the second rotating shaft 25, the axis of the first rotating shaft 24 and the axis of the second rotating shaft 25 can be staggered in the horizontal direction.

[0076] In this way, when the first air guide plate 21 rotates to a horizontal position, the first air guide plate 21 is flush with the second air guide plate 22, forming a single-layer extended air guide structure, which is more conducive to the transportation of airflow at the air outlet 11; and the combination plate of the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 extends the transportation distance of the airflow.

[0077] In another case, the height of the axis of the first rotating shaft 24 is greater than or less than the height of the axis of the second rotating shaft 25 , so that the axis of the first rotating shaft 24 and the axis of the second rotating shaft 25 are staggered in the height direction.

[0078] In this embodiment, the first end and the second end are arranged to be inclined and abutted against each other in the height direction, so that the first end is located obliquely above or below the second end, and the first end is on the outside of the second end; this allows a height difference to exist between the axis of the first rotating shaft 24 and the axis of the second rotating shaft 25, thereby achieving the staggered height of the axis of the first rotating shaft 24 and the axis of the second rotating shaft 25.

[0079] Because when the first air guide plate 21 rotates to a horizontal position and is parallel to the second air guide plate 22, the first end is located obliquely above or below the second end, and thus the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 form a double-layer air guide plate structure; in this way, when the two air guide plates rotate together, the air outlets 11 can be layered, thereby achieving refined control of the air outlet volume of each layer of the air outlet 11.

[0080] When the first end is located obliquely below the second end, when the first air guide plate 21 rotates to a horizontal position, the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 are parallel to each other, and because the first end is located obliquely below the second end, the first air guide plate 21 is located below the second air guide plate 22. The airflow in the body 1 is discharged horizontally along the second air guide plate 22, and part of the airflow is discharged in the direction of the first air guide plate 21, which is lower in height, so that the air conditioner can discharge air horizontally at two different heights; in this way, the air in the lower layer can be doubled, which improves the user experience.

[0081] Furthermore, the air guide plate assembly 2 also includes a driving assembly 3. Specifically, the driving assembly 3 includes a motor 31 and a gear transmission mechanism 32, wherein the rotating shaft of the motor 31 is connected to the input teeth of the gear transmission mechanism 32; the output teeth of the gear transmission mechanism 32 are connected to the first rotating shaft 24 and the second rotating shaft 25.

[0082] It should be noted that, in the present invention, only one motor 31 is provided, and the motor 31 drives the first rotating shaft 24 and the second rotating shaft 25 in a staggered or synchronous manner.

[0083] Since the first air guide plate 21 in the present invention needs to rotate to be parallel to the second air guide plate 22 before forming a double-layer air guide structure and rotating synchronously with the second air guide plate 22, it is necessary to stagger and then synchronously drive the first rotating shaft 24 and the second rotating shaft 25 to achieve different rotation modes. Compared with using two motors 31 to drive the two air guide plates separately, this embodiment uses a single motor 31 to stagger and then synchronously drive the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22, which can reduce the number of motors 31 and reduce costs; the specific staggered driving method has been described in the above embodiment and will not be elaborated here.

[0084] Embodiment 4,

[0085] See also Fig.11 as well as Fig.12 This embodiment discloses an air conditioner, including the air guide plate assembly 2 and the body 1 in the above-mentioned embodiments 1, 2 and 3, wherein an air outlet 11 is provided at the bottom of the body 1; the air guide plate assembly 2 is hinged at the air outlet 11, and the air guide plate assembly 2 is used to guide the airflow of the air outlet 11 to be discharged in different directions during rotation.

[0086] Specifically, the machine body 1 has a panel 12 and a bottom plate 13, wherein the panel 12 is disposed on the front end surface of the machine body 1, and the bottom plate 13 is disposed on the bottom of the machine body 1. The bottom end of the panel 12 is spaced apart from the bottom plate 13 to form a first air outlet 11, and a first air guide plate 21 is disposed on the first air outlet 11 to open the first air outlet 11 during the rotation process and guide the airflow to be discharged along the inclined direction of the first air guide plate 21. The rear end of the panel 12 is spaced apart from the bottom plate 13 to form a second air outlet 11, and a second air guide plate 22 is disposed on the second air outlet 11 to close the second air outlet 11. The first air outlet 11 and the second air outlet 11 together form the air outlet 11.

[0087] On the basis of this structure, during assembly, the first air guide plate 21 is vertically installed at the first air outlet 11, and the second air guide plate 22 is horizontally installed at the second air outlet 11, so that the air guide plate assembly 2 covers the air outlet 11. When the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 rotate under the drive of the drive motor 31, the air outlet 11 can be opened and the air flow can be guided out.

[0088] Specifically, when the first air guide plate 21 rotates to a horizontal position, the first air outlet 11 realizes horizontal air outlet; when the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22 rotate together in the same direction to a vertical position, the second air outlet 11 realizes vertical air outlet.

[0089] In this way, by rotating the combined plate of the first air guide plate 21 and the second air guide plate 22, it is convenient to adjust the inclination direction of the double-layer air guide plate to achieve different air outlet modes to adapt to different operating modes; the combined plate ensures the length in the air outlet direction, can transport the airflow farther, and improve the user experience.
