When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.

[0042] The present invention provides an air outlet assembly. The air outlet assembly is applied to an air conditioner, wherein the air conditioner is provided with a casing, wherein the casing is provided with an air outlet on the indoor side, and the air outlet assembly is provided in the casing and is located near the air outlet to guide the air outlet of the air conditioner on the indoor side. The air conditioner can be an integral air conditioner or a split air conditioner. When the air conditioner is a split air conditioner, its indoor unit can be a wall-mounted type or a floor-standing type.

[0043] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the air outlet component includes:

[0044] The air duct component 100 is structured to form an air guide channel 101, and the outlet of the air guide channel 101 is used to connect with the air outlet; and

[0045] A first air guide 210 and a second air guide 220 are provided in the air guide channel 101, wherein the first air guide 210 is used to adjust the vertical air outlet angle, and the second air guide 220 is used to adjust the horizontal air outlet angle;

[0046] The air duct member 100 can rotate relative to the housing to drive the first air guide member 210 and the second air guide member 220 to rotate, so that the first air guide member 210 has a first state located at the air outlet side of the second air guide member 220 and a second state located at the air inlet side of the second air guide member 220;

[0047] When the first air guiding member 210 is in the first state and the second state, the air guiding channel 101 is gradually expanded in the air outlet direction.

[0048] In the technical solution of the present invention, when the air outlet assembly is installed in the housing, the outlet of the air guide channel 101 can be connected to the air outlet, and the air guide channel 101 is gradually expanded in the air outlet direction, which is conducive to promoting air flow diffusion, thereby increasing the air supply range. By driving the air duct component 100 to move relative to the housing, the relative positions of the first air guide member 210, the second air guide member 220 and the air outlet can be changed, thereby enabling the first air guide member 210 to switch between the first state and the second state. Specifically, when the first air guide 210 is in the first state, the first air guide 210 is located on the air outlet side of the second air guide 220, that is, the first air guide 210 is in a more outer position, and the first air guide 210 plays a wind guiding role at a position closer to the air outlet, so that the airflow at the air outlet can be well guided in the vertical direction, thereby meeting the user's requirement for adjusting the air outlet angle in the vertical direction; when the first air guide 210 is in the second state, the first air guide 210 is located on the air inlet side of the second air guide 220, that is, the second air guide 220 is in a more outer position, and the second air guide 220 plays a wind guiding role at a position closer to the air outlet, so that the airflow at the air outlet can be well guided in the horizontal direction, thereby meeting the user's requirement for adjusting the air outlet angle in the horizontal direction.

[0049] In particular, when the air outlet assembly is applied to a cabinet, the gradually expanding shape of the air guide channel 101 is manifested as the width of the air guide channel 101 gradually increasing in the air outlet direction, thereby increasing the lateral air supply range of the cabinet. Furthermore, when the cabinet is in the heating mode, the first air guide 210 is in the first state and guides the air downward; when the cabinet is in the non-heating mode, the first air guide 210 is in the second state. In the heating mode, the first air guide 210 is on the outside, and the air guide direction is inclined downward, specifically, it is preferably inclined downward by 30 to 60 degrees. In this way, the hot air at the air outlet first flows toward the ground, and then, under the trend of its own upward action, the hot air can be fully diffused in the height direction of the indoor environment, so that the hot air is fully diffused in various areas of the indoor environment. In addition, under the action of the wall effect, the hot air flowing to the ground can flow along the ground, so that the hot air can be more efficiently diffused in the indoor environment. As a result, the temperature of the indoor environment can more efficiently reach the temperature set by the user, which can improve the temperature regulation effect and comfort of the air conditioner. Furthermore, in the heating mode, the second air guide 220 located on the inside can swing horizontally to increase the horizontal air supply range of the cabinet. In the non-heating mode, the first air guide 210 is on the inside and the second air guide 220 is on the outside. The swinging effect of the second air guide 220 is stronger, which can break through the limitation of the width of the cabinet's air outlet on the air outlet range, thereby greatly widening the horizontal air supply range of the cabinet and facilitating airflow diffusion.

[0050] In the related art, the vertical air guide structure of the cabinet is set on the inside. When the horizontal air guide structure swings horizontally, the air guide function of the vertical air guide structure is often weakened, making the vertical air guide effect not obvious. In particular, during heating, the hot air rises and cannot be effectively guided to the ground, resulting in slow heating of the lower air in the room and poor comfort. In the present invention, when the first air guide 210 is in the first state, it is located on the outside of the second air guide 220. Even if the second air guide 220 swings on the inside, the first air guide 210 on the outside can also play a good role in adjusting the air outlet angle in the vertical direction, thereby greatly improving the vertical air guide effect of the cabinet. During heating, the first air guide 210 guides the air downward, which can make the air flow toward the ground to ensure the heating comfort of the cabinet.

[0051] Further, in the present embodiment, the two ends of the air guide channel 101 are respectively formed with a wide mouth 102 and a narrow mouth 103, and the wide mouth 102 is used to dock the air outlet; the air duct component 100 includes two side plates 120, and the side plates 120 can rotate relative to the housing so that the port of the air guide channel 101 switches between the wide mouth 102 and the narrow mouth 103. In this way, even if the side plates 120 rotate with the first air guide member 210 and the second air guide member 220, the size of the ports at both ends of the air guide channel 101 can be changed by driving the two side plates 120 to move relatively. It can be understood that when the rotation directions of the two side plates 120 are opposite, for example, one rotates clockwise and the other rotates counterclockwise, the wide mouth 102 can be shrunk to the narrow mouth 103, and thereafter, the two side plates 120 change the rotation direction, the former switches to counterclockwise rotation, and the latter switches to clockwise rotation, so that the narrow mouth 103 can be widened to the wide mouth 102 again. In this way, the adjustment of the air guide channel 101 can be simply achieved, so that the air guide channel 101 maintains a gradually expanding state in both states of the first air guide member 210. In the cabinet, the two side panels 120 extend vertically and are arranged opposite to each other in the horizontal direction. The two side panels 120 move relative to each other, and the distance between the two side panels 120 can be changed, so that the distance between the two side panels 120 gradually increases in the air outlet direction, so that the width of the air guide channel 101 gradually increases in the air outlet direction, thereby forming a wide mouth 102 on the side close to the air outlet, and a narrow mouth 103 on the side away from the air outlet, and docking with the air outlet through the wide mouth 102, thereby increasing the lateral air supply range of the cabinet. Of course, in other embodiments, it is also possible that the side panel 120 does not rotate with the first air guide member 210 and the second air guide member 220, so that the air guide channel 101 maintains a gradually expanding state.

[0052] Furthermore, in this embodiment, if Figure 6As shown, the air outlet assembly also includes a connecting rod 350 rotatably connected to the side panel 120. Under the action of the connecting rod 350, the two side panels 120 can be driven at the same time and rotate in opposite directions. In this way, power can be applied to only one side panel 120, and the side panel 120 can drive the other side panel 120 to rotate through the connecting rod 350, and the rotation directions of the two side panels 120 are opposite, so that the port of the air guide channel 101 can be switched between the wide opening 102 and the narrow opening 103. Of course, in other embodiments, it is also possible that the two side panels 120 do not have a linkage relationship and are driven by independent power sources.

[0053] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the two side panels 120 are connected by a connecting rod 350, one end of the connecting rod 350 is connected to the side of the rotation axis of one side panel 120 close to the narrow opening 103, and the other end is connected to the side of the rotation axis of the other side panel 120 close to the wide opening 102. For the convenience of description, the two side plates 120 are respectively called the driving plate and the driven plate, and it is defined that in the initial position, the side where the wide opening 102 is located is the first side, and the side where the narrow opening 103 is located is the second side. Taking the example that the connecting rod 350 is connected between the rotation axis of the driving plate and the first side, when the driving plate is in the initial position, it swings in the air guide channel 101 on the first side, and while applying a thrust to the connecting rod 350, the driving plate can also swing out of the air guide channel 101 on the second side; since the connecting rod 350 is connected between the rotation axis of the driven plate and the second side, the connecting rod 350 can push the driven plate on the second side after being subjected to the thrust, so that the driven plate can swing out of the air guide channel 101 on the second side, and at the same time, the driven plate can correspondingly swing in the air guide channel 101 on the first side. Thus, on the first side which was originally a wide opening 102, since both the driving plate and the driven plate swing toward the inside of the air guide channel 101, the first side can be switched to a narrow opening 103; on the second side which was originally a narrow opening 103, since both the driving plate and the driven plate swing toward the outside of the air guide channel 101, the second side is switched to a wide opening 102. In this embodiment, by driving one of the side plates 120 to rotate, the two side plates 120 can be linked, so that the port of the air guide channel 101 is switched between the wide opening 102 and the narrow opening 103. Only one driving device needs to be provided, which is simpler in control, and at the same time, the movement synchronization of the two side plates 120 can be ensured. Of course, in other embodiments, each side panel 120 may be connected to a connecting rod 350, and the connection position of each connecting rod 350 is on the side of the rotation axis of the side panel 120 close to the same port of the air guide channel 101, and the ends of the two connecting rods 350 are rotatably connected together through a shaft, and the shaft is restricted to move only along the air outlet direction. In this way, the linkage of the two side panels 120 can also be achieved.

[0054] Furthermore, in this embodiment, if Figure 1As shown, the air duct component 100 also includes two end plates 110, and the side plates 120 are rotatably connected to the end plates 110 so that the port of the air guide channel 101 can be switched between the wide opening 102 and the narrow opening 103; the end plates 110 can rotate relative to the housing, and can drive the first air guide member 210, the second air guide member 220 and the air duct component 100 to rotate as a whole, so that the first air guide member 210 can be switched between the first state and the second state. The side plate 120 is fixedly connected with a first rotating shaft 121, and is rotatably connected to the end plate 110 through the first rotating shaft 121. The axis of the first rotating shaft 121 is the axis of the side plate 120, and the first rotating shaft 121 of the side plate 120 is the output shaft of the driving motor 310. Both ends of the connecting rod 350 are rotatably connected to the side plate 120 through the second rotating shaft 351. The second rotating shaft 351 at one end of the connecting rod 350 is located between the narrow opening 103 and the corresponding first rotating shaft 121, and the second rotating shaft 351 at the other end is located between the wide opening 102 and the corresponding first rotating shaft 121. The end plate 110 is provided with a third rotating shaft 111, which is rotatably connected to the housing through the third rotating shaft 111. In this way, the end plate 110 rotates around the third rotation axis 111, which can simultaneously drive the side plate 120, the first air guide 210 and the second air guide 220 to rotate. Since the positions of the first air guide 210 and the second air guide 220 are swapped, the two ports of the air guide channel 101 will also be swapped. By driving one of the side plates 120 to rotate around its first rotation axis 121 relative to the end plate 110, the other side plate 120 can be driven by the connecting rod 350 to rotate around its first rotation axis 121 relative to the end plate 110, so that the port of the air guide channel 101 switches between the wide mouth 102 and the narrow mouth 103, so as to ensure that the air guide channel 101 is connected to the air outlet through the wide mouth 102. Of course, in other embodiments, it is also possible to drive the first air guide 210 and the second air guide 220 to rotate through the side plate 120.

[0055] Without loss of generality, the air outlet assembly is applied to a cabinet of a split-type air conditioner, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the first air guide member 210 includes a connecting vertical rod 211 and a plurality of horizontal louvers distributed vertically, the horizontal louvers are rotatably connected to the side plate 120 and fixed to the connecting vertical rod 211, so that the vertical movement of the connecting vertical rod 211 drives the horizontal louvers to rotate; Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, the second air guide 220 includes a plurality of vertical guide plates 221 distributed in the transverse direction, and the vertical guide plates 221 are rotatably connected to the end plate 110. The first air guide 210 and the second air guide 220 are arranged at intervals along the air guide channel 101, and the third rotating shaft 111 is located between the first air guide 210 and the second air guide 220. In this way, the second air guide 220 can be directly driven to rotate by the rotation of the end plate 110, and the end plate 110 drives the side plate 120 to rotate, which can indirectly drive the first air guide 210 to rotate. The first air guide 210 and the second air guide 220 are actually rotated around the third rotating shaft 111, so that the positions can be swapped.

[0056] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a first motor 214 is installed on the side plate 120, and the first motor 214 is connected to a rocker 213, and the rocker 213 drives the connecting vertical rod 211 to move vertically, thereby driving the horizontal swing leaf 212 to rotate to adjust the vertical air supply angle. Furthermore, the first motor 214 drives the rocker 213 to swing back and forth, which can drive the horizontal louver to swing back and forth in the vertical direction to achieve vertical swing wind; Figure 5 As shown, a second motor 223 is installed on the end plate 110, and the second motor 223 is connected to the rotating shaft of the vertical guide plate 221, and can drive the vertical guide plate 221 to rotate to adjust the horizontal air supply angle; further, the second motor 223 drives the vertical guide plate 221 to swing back and forth, so as to achieve horizontal swinging wind. Figure 1 As shown, the second air guide member 220 further includes a linkage member 222 , and the linkage member 222 is rotatably connected to each vertical guide plate 221 . The second motor 223 drives one vertical guide plate 221 to rotate, and all vertical guide plates 221 can be driven to rotate through the linkage member 222 .

[0057] Furthermore, in this embodiment, if Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the end plate 110 is installed with a driving motor 310 and a sun gear 330, and the output shaft of the driving motor 310 is fixedly connected with a planetary gear 320, and the planetary gear 320 can be engaged with the sun gear 330, so as to drive the end plate 110 to rotate relative to the housing under the drive of the driving motor 310, and drive the side plate 120 to move relative to the end plate 120. In this way, the state switching of the first air guide member 210 and the state switching of the port of the air guide channel 101 are simultaneously realized by one driving motor 310, which is very convenient to control, and is conducive to simplifying the structure of the air outlet component and reducing its installation space.

[0058] In one embodiment, if Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the driving motor 310 is fixed to one of the side plates 120, and when the first air guide 210 switches between two states, the angle at which the end plate 110 rotates relative to the housing is the first rotation angle, and the angle at which the side plate 120 rotates relative to the end plate 110 is the second rotation angle, and the transmission ratio of the sun gear 330 and the planetary gear 320 is adapted to the ratio of the first rotation angle to the second rotation angle. Among them, the first rotation angle is 180 degrees, so that the air duct component 100 can drive the first air guide 210 and the second air guide 220 to flip, and the second rotation angle is preferably 15 to 30 degrees, so that the widths of the wide mouth 102 and the narrow mouth 103 are appropriate to ensure the air guiding effect of the air guide channel 101. The transmission ratio of the sun gear 330 and the planetary gear 320 is adapted to the ratio of the first rotation angle to the second rotation angle, which can make the rotation of the end plate 110 relative to the housing and the rotation of the side plate 120 relative to the end plate 110 synchronous. Specifically, when the sun gear 330 rotates and drives the air duct component 100 to flip 180 degrees, so that the state of the first air guide 210 is switched, the planetary gear 320 rotates accordingly, which can drive the side plate 120 to rotate relative to the end plate 110, so that the width of the wide mouth 102 and the narrow mouth 103 changes. In this embodiment, when the first air guide 210 switches between the first state and the second state, the port of the air guide channel 101 switches between the wide mouth 102 and the narrow mouth 103 synchronously. When the first air guide 210 is switched to the position, the outlet of the air guide channel 101 is also correspondingly switched to the wide mouth 102, and docking with the air outlet is achieved. Further, the center angle of the toothed disc of the planetary gear 320 is adapted to the second rotation angle. In this way, while the meshing requirements of the planetary gear 320 and the sun gear 330 are met, the volume of the planetary gear 320 is relatively small, does not occupy too much space, and is not prone to interference.

[0059] In one embodiment, if Fig. 9 and Fig.10As shown, one of the side plates 120 is fixedly connected with a pinion 340, and the outer periphery of the planetary gear 320 has a continuous tooth portion 321, and the central angle of the continuous tooth portion 321 is 180 degrees. The continuous tooth portion 321 can mesh with the sun gear 330 and the pinion 340 in sequence to drive the end plate 110 and the side plate 120 to rotate in sequence. When the air outlet assembly is switched, the end plate 110 can be driven to rotate relative to the housing through the cooperation of the continuous tooth portion 321 and the sun gear 330, so that the first air guide 210 is switched from the first state to the second state, and then the continuous tooth portion 321 is meshed with the pinion 340 to drive the side plate 120 to rotate relative to the end plate 110, so as to switch the narrow opening 103 connected to the air outlet to the wide opening 102; of course, it can also be that the side plate 120 is driven to rotate relative to the end plate 110 first, and then the end plate 110 is driven to rotate relative to the housing. Each time the end plate 110 is driven to rotate relative to the housing, the meshing position of the continuous tooth portion 321 and the sun gear 330 moves from one edge to the other edge. When the continuous tooth portion 321 cooperates with the sub-gear 340, there is no meshing relationship between the planetary gear 320 and the sun gear 330, so that the end plate 110 remains fixed and the side plate 120 rotates relative to the end plate 110.
