Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of air conditioners, and in particular to an air conditioner. Background Art
[0002] In the field of air conditioning, the large air guide plate blowing technology has become a widely recognized promotional selling point in the air conditioning industry, especially for household air conditioners. The large air guide plate can not only improve the blowing effect such as cooling without blowing on people and heating carpet wind, but also bring consumers a visual intuitive feeling, making users more accepting of bedroom air conditioner products that prevent direct blowing, and bringing a more reassuring user experience. Therefore, various air conditioning manufacturers have started to study the movement form of driving large air guide plates.
[0003] In the existing technology, the movement mechanism of the air guide plate is mostly a gear rack structure with poor load-bearing capacity. The air guide plate is small, and the movement form requires multiple stepper motors to cooperate in order to achieve the composite movement of pushing and rotating, resulting in poor air-conditioning blowing effect, and there are problems such as poor stability and easy shaking during the movement. Summary of the invention
[0004] The present invention solves one of the technical problems in the related art at least to a certain extent.
[0005] To this end, the present application aims to provide an air conditioner, in which the central axis on the follower is connected to the transmission module, and the transmission module is arranged in the sliding shell, and the sliding shell slides in the push-out chute. Therefore, the moving direction of the follower is the length direction of the push-out chute; when the driving slide rod flips with the driving shaft as the axis, the driving slide rod slides in the driving chute and drives the follower to move along the length direction of the push-out chute. At this time, the air guide plate will be pushed to move so that the air guide plate is free from the obstruction of the air outlet. And the track slide rod on the follower slides in the track chute, and the track of the track slide groove is used to make the driving member rotate with the central axis as the axis, and the rotation of the central axis is transmitted to the air guide plate through the transmission module, so that the air guide plate flips to achieve wind guidance, and its structure is stable and the blowing effect is good.
[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides an air conditioner, comprising:
[0007] A housing having an air outlet;
[0008] An indoor heat exchanger, the indoor heat exchanger is used to exchange heat with the air passing through it;
[0009] A heat exchange fan, the heat exchange fan is arranged in the housing, and the heat exchange fan is used to output the airflow to the room through the air outlet after the airflow passes through the indoor heat exchanger for heat exchange;
[0010] An air guide plate, which is arranged at the air outlet of the shell;
[0011] A bottom plate, one side of which is provided with a track slide groove and a push-out slide groove, one end of the push-out slide groove passes through the bottom plate;
[0012] A sliding shell, which slides in the ejection slide groove;
[0013] A transmission module, which is disposed in the sliding shell and connected to the air guide plate;
[0014] A driven member is arranged on one side of the bottom plate; a driving slot is provided on the side of the driven member away from the bottom plate;
[0015] A track slide bar, which is arranged on a side of the follower facing the bottom plate, and the track slide bar slides in the track slide groove;
[0016] A central shaft, which is arranged on a side of the driven member facing the base plate, and the central shaft is connected to the transmission module;
[0017] A driving slide rod sliding in the driving slide groove;
[0018] A driving shaft, which is parallel to and spaced from the driving slide bar, and the driving shaft is connected to the driving slide bar;
[0019] A driving member, which is used to drive the driving shaft to rotate;
[0020] The driving member drives the driving shaft to rotate, and the driving shaft drives the driving slide bar to flip, and the moving direction of the driven member is limited by the push-out slide slot, so that the driving member drives the sliding shell to partially extend out of the push-out slide slot, and at this time, the sliding shell drives the air guide plate to extend;
[0021] And the track slide bar slides along the track of the track slide groove, so that the driving member rotates with the central axis as the axis, and the rotation of the central axis drives the air guide plate to flip through the transmission module.
[0022] In the technical solution, the central axis on the follower is connected to the transmission module, and the transmission module is arranged in the sliding shell, and the sliding shell slides in the push-out chute. Therefore, the moving direction of the follower is the length direction of the push-out chute; when the driving slide rod flips with the driving shaft as the axis, the driving slide rod slides in the driving chute and drives the follower to move along the length direction of the push-out chute. At this time, the air guide plate will be pushed to move so that the air guide plate is free from the obstruction of the air outlet. And the track slide rod on the follower slides in the track chute, and the track of the track slide groove is used to make the driving member rotate with the central axis as the axis, and the rotation of the central axis is transmitted to the air guide plate through the transmission module, so that the air guide plate flips to achieve wind guidance.
[0023] In some embodiments of the present application, the track slide groove includes a track segment and a first arc segment that are interconnected, the length direction of the track segment is the same as the length direction of the ejection groove; the first arc segment is located at one end of the track segment close to the air guide plate; the radius of the first arc segment is the same as the distance from the center axis to the track slide rod.
[0024] In the technical solution, when the track slide bar connected to the follower moves in the track segment, the central axis on the follower drives the sliding shell, the transmission module and the air guide plate to move, and at this time the air guide plate only moves. When the track slide bar moves to the connection between the first arc segment and the track segment, the central axis is in line with the axis of the first arc segment; the track slide bar continues to move along the first arc segment, and at this time the follower rotates with the central axis as the rotation axis, and the rotation of the central axis drives the air guide plate to flip through the transmission module, realizing the function of pushing out the air guide plate first and then flipping it.
[0025] In some embodiments of the present application, a first connecting segment is arranged between the trajectory segment and the first arc segment, and the length direction of the first connecting segment is the same as the length direction of the trajectory segment; the two ends of the first connecting segment are respectively connected to the first arc segment and the trajectory segment.
[0026] In the technical solution, the track slide bar enters the first connecting section after passing through the track section. When the track slide bar slides in the first connecting section, the follower still drives the air guide plate to move until the first connecting section and the first arc section are connected, and the center axis is colinear with the axis of the first arc section; the track slide bar continues to move along the first arc section, and at this time the follower rotates with the center axis as the rotating axis, and the rotation of the center axis drives the air guide plate to flip through the transmission module; the first connecting section lengthens the distance that the air guide plate is pushed out.
[0027] In some embodiments of the present application, the center line of the ejection chute is defined as the central axis; the track chute also includes a second connecting segment and a second arc segment, and the second connecting segment and the second arc segment are mirrored to the first connecting segment and the first arc segment with the central axis as a reference.
[0028] In the technical solution, when the driving member reaches the forward rotation or flipping of the central axis, the trajectory slide bar of the driven member enters the first connecting section or the second connecting section respectively. Therefore, the rotation directions of the driven member in the first arc section and the second arc section are different, and thus the flipping directions of the air guide plate are different, thereby realizing adjusting the flipping direction of the air guide plate under different modes or different requirements.
[0029] In some embodiments of the present application, the air conditioner further comprises a limit rod, the limit rod is located on a side of the driving shaft away from the driving slide rod, a first stop bar and a second stop bar are provided on a side of the follower away from the bottom plate, and the first stop bar and the second stop bar are used for the limit rod to abut against;
[0030] When the limiting rod abuts against and slides along the length direction of the first baffle bar, the track sliding rod enters the first connecting section from the track section;
[0031] When the limiting rod abuts against and slides along the length direction of the second baffle bar, the track sliding bar enters the second connecting section from the track section.
[0032] In the technical solution, a triangular structure is formed between the limit rod, the driving slide rod and the central axis. The driving slide rod drives the follower to move through the driving slide groove, and the track slide rod moves in the track segment. According to the forward rotation or flipping of the driving shaft, the limit rod approaches the first baffle or the second baffle. When the track slide rod is located at the connection between the track segment and the first connecting segment and the second connecting segment, the limit rod abuts against the corresponding first baffle or the second baffle. At this time, the limit rod is limited by the corresponding first baffle or the second baffle, so as to ensure that the track slide rod can smoothly enter the corresponding first connecting segment or the second connecting segment, and avoid the track slide rod from getting stuck at the connection between the track segment and the first connecting segment and the second connecting segment, causing the air guide plate to fail to operate normally.
[0033] In some embodiments of the present application, the side of the follower having the first limiting groove also has a first avoidance groove and a second avoidance groove, and the first avoidance groove and the second avoidance groove are used for the limiting rod to pass through.
[0034] In the technical solution, when the track slide bar is located in the first arc segment or the second arc segment, the follower rotates with the central axis as the axis, and the limit rod will be separated from the first limit groove or the second limit groove, and the limit rod will touch the follower, so the first avoidance groove and the second avoidance groove are set to allow the limit rod to slide through the first avoidance groove and the second avoidance groove, thereby improving the stability of the structural operation.

[0039] In the technical solution, the driving member drives the second gear to rotate, and the second gear meshes with the first gear to drive the first gear to rotate with the driving shaft as the axis.
[0040] In some embodiments of the present application, the pitch circle diameter of the first gear is larger than the pitch circle diameter of the second gear.
[0041] In the technical solution, the reduction ratio of the first gear and the second gear is changed, which relatively improves the accuracy of the rotation angle of the first gear, so that the position of the driven member is more accurate and the stability of the structural operation is improved.
[0042] In some embodiments of the present application, a middle plate is provided on one side of the bottom plate on which the track groove is opened, and the driving member is detachably arranged on the middle plate; a accommodating cavity is formed between the middle plate and the bottom plate, and the follower, the sliding shell, the transmission module and the driving slide rod are all located in the accommodating cavity.

[0095] In the present application, the air conditioner performs a refrigeration cycle of the indoor unit of the air conditioner by using a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve and an indoor heat exchanger. The refrigeration cycle includes a series of processes involving compression, condensation, expansion and evaporation, and supplies refrigerant to the air that has been conditioned and heat exchanged. The compressor compresses the refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state and discharges the refrigerant gas in a high-temperature and high-pressure state. The discharged refrigerant gas flows into the condenser. The condenser condenses the compressed refrigerant into a liquid phase, and the heat is released to the surrounding environment through the condensation process. The expansion valve expands the liquid phase refrigerant in a high-temperature and high-pressure state condensed in the condenser into a low-pressure liquid phase refrigerant. The indoor heat exchanger evaporates the refrigerant expanded in the expansion valve and returns the refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state to the compressor. The indoor heat exchanger can achieve a refrigeration effect by utilizing the latent heat of evaporation of the refrigerant to exchange heat with the material to be cooled. In the whole cycle, the indoor unit of the air conditioner can adjust the temperature of the indoor space. The outdoor unit of the air conditioner indoor unit refers to the part of the refrigeration cycle including the compressor and the outdoor heat exchanger, the indoor unit of the air conditioner indoor unit includes the indoor heat exchanger, and the expansion valve may be provided in the indoor unit or the outdoor unit. The indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger function as a condenser or an indoor heat exchanger. When the indoor heat exchanger functions as a condenser, the air conditioner indoor unit functions as a heater in the heating mode, and when the indoor heat exchanger functions as an indoor heat exchanger, the air conditioner indoor unit functions as a cooler in the cooling mode.
[0096] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present application will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0097] As attached Figures 1 to 10 As shown, in an exemplary embodiment of the air conditioner of the present invention, the air conditioner comprises: a housing 100, an air guide plate 200, a bottom plate 300, a sliding shell 170, a transmission module 180, a driven member 600, a track slide bar 140, a central shaft 150, a driving slide groove 160, a driving slide bar 210, a driving shaft 220 and a driving member 250; wherein, an air outlet is provided on the housing 100; the air guide plate 200 is arranged at the air outlet of the housing 100; a track slide groove 400 and a push-out groove 500 are provided on one side of the bottom plate 300, and one end of the push-out slide groove passes through the bottom plate 300; the sliding shell 170 slides in the push-out slide groove;
[0098] The transmission module 180 is disposed in the sliding shell 170, and the transmission module 180 is connected to the air guide plate 200; the follower 600 is disposed on one side of the bottom plate 300; the track slide bar 140 is disposed on the side of the follower 600 facing the bottom plate 300, and the track slide bar 140 slides in the track slide groove 400;
[0099] The central shaft 150 is disposed on the side of the driven member 600 facing the bottom plate 300, and the central shaft 150 is connected to the transmission module 180; the driving slide groove 160 is provided on the side of the driven member 600 away from the bottom plate 300; the driving slide bar 210 slides in the driving slide groove 160; the driving shaft 220 is parallel to the driving slide bar 210 and is spaced apart, and the driving shaft 220 is connected to the driving slide bar 210; the driving member 250 is used to drive the driving shaft 220 to rotate;
[0100] The driving member 250 drives the driving shaft 220 to rotate, and the driving shaft 220 drives the driving slide bar 210 to flip over, and limits the moving direction of the driven member 600 by the ejection slot, so that the driving member 250 drives the sliding shell 170 to partially extend out of the ejection slot, and at this time, the sliding shell 170 drives the air guide plate 200 to extend; and the track slide bar 140 slides along the track of the track slot 400, so that the driving member 250 rotates with the central axis 150 as the axis, and the rotation of the central axis 150 drives the air guide plate 200 to flip through the transmission module 180.
[0101] Through the above scheme, the central axis 150 on the follower 600 is connected to the transmission module 180, and the transmission module 180 is arranged in the sliding shell 170, and the sliding shell 170 slides in the push-out chute. Therefore, the moving direction of the follower 600 is the length direction of the push-out chute; when the driving slide bar 210 flips with the driving shaft 220 as the axis, the driving slide bar 210 slides in the driving chute 160 to drive the follower 600 to move along the length direction of the push-out chute. At this time, the air guide plate 200 will be pushed to move so that the air guide plate 200 is free from the obstruction of the air outlet. And the track slide bar 140 on the follower 600 slides in the track chute 400, and the track of the track slide groove is used to make the driving member 250 rotate with the central axis 150 as the axis, and the rotation of the central axis 150 is transmitted to the air guide plate 200 through the transmission module 180, so that the air guide plate 200 flips to achieve wind guidance, and its structure is stable and the blowing effect is good.

The length direction of the track segment 401 is the same as the length direction of the ejection slot 500. The first arc segment 403 is located at one end of the track segment 401 close to the air deflector 200. The radius of the first arc segment 403 is the same as the distance from the central axis 150 to the track slide 140. Through the above solution, when the track slide 140 connected to the follower 600 moves in the track segment 401, the central axis 150 on the follower 600 drives the sliding shell 170, the transmission module 180 and the air deflector 200 to move, and at this time, the air deflector 200 only moves. When the track slide bar 140 moves to the connection between the first arc segment 403 and the track segment 401, the central axis 150 is colinear with the axis of the first arc segment 403; the track slide bar 140 continues to move along the first arc segment 403, and at this time the follower 600 rotates with the central axis 150 as the rotation axis, and the rotation of the central axis 150 drives the air guide plate 200 to flip through the transmission module 180, realizing the function of first pushing out and then flipping the air guide plate 200. The radius of the first arc segment 403 is the same as the distance from the central axis 150 to the track slide bar 140, so as to ensure that when the track slide bar 140 slides in the first arc segment 403, the central axis 150 only rotates.
[0105] Please refer to Fig.17 and Fig.18 In some embodiments, the track segment 401 is located at one end of the ejection chute; the first arc segment 403 is located at one side of the ejection chute. A first connecting segment 402 is provided between the track segment 401 and the first arc segment 403; the length direction of the first connecting segment 402 is the same as the length direction of the track segment 401, that is, the first connecting segment 402 is parallel to the track segment 401; the two ends of the first connecting segment 402 are connected to the first arc segment 403 and the track segment 401 respectively. The first connecting segment 402 is located on one side of the ejection slot 500 close to the first arc segment 403, and the first connecting segment 402 connects the track segment 401 with the first arc segment 403. Through the above solution, the track slide bar 140 enters the first connection section 402 after passing through the track section 401. When the track slide bar 140 slides in the first connection section 402, the follower 600 still drives the air guide plate 200 to move until the first connection section 402 and the first arc section 403 are connected, and the central axis 150 is colinear with the axis of the first arc section 403; the track slide bar 140 continues to move along the first arc section 403, and at this time, the follower 600 rotates with the central axis 150 as the rotation axis, and the rotation of the central axis 150 drives the air guide plate 200 to flip through the transmission module 180. The first connection section 402 lengthens the distance that the air guide plate 200 is pushed out.
[0106] Please refer to Fig.17 and Fig.18In some embodiments, the connection between the track segment 401 and the first connecting segment 402 is transitioned by an arc. The connection between the first connecting segment 402 and the first arc segment 403 is transitioned by an arc. Because the length directions of the track segment 401 and the first connecting segment 402 are not colinear, the track segment 401 and the first connecting segment 402 are connected by an arc transition. To improve the smoothness of the track slide 140 when sliding in the track slide 400. When the track slide 140 passes through the arc transition between the track segment 401 and the first connecting segment 402, because the track slide 140 changes from linear motion to curved motion, the follower 600 will rotate with the central axis 150 as the axis, and at this time the central axis 150 will drive the air guide plate 200 to flip through the transmission module 180. However, because the arc transition between the track segment 401 and the first connecting segment 402 is very small, the air guide plate 200 will only flip slightly.
[0107] Please refer to Fig.17 and Fig.18 In some embodiments, the center line of the ejection chute is the center axis, and the track chute 400 further includes a second connecting segment 404 and a second arc segment 405, which are mirrored to the first connecting segment 402 and the first arc segment 403 with the center axis as the reference. The second connecting segment 404 and the first connecting segment 402 are both connected to the track segment 401. The axes of the first arc segment 403 and the second arc segment 405 are collinear. Through the above scheme, the driving member 250 reaches the center axis 150 to rotate forward or flip, and the track slide bar 140 of the follower 600 enters the first connecting segment 402 or the second connecting segment 404 respectively, so the rotation direction of the follower 600 is different when it is in the first arc segment 403 and the second arc segment 405 respectively, so the flipping direction of the air guide plate 200 is different, so as to adjust the flipping direction of the air guide plate 200 under different modes or different requirements.
[0108] In some embodiments, the radius of the second arc segment 405 is the same as the distance between the central shaft 150 and the track slider 140 , thereby ensuring that the central shaft 150 only rotates when the track slider 140 slides in the second arc segment 405 .
[0109] In some embodiments, the length direction of the central axis is the same as the length direction of the ejection chute, and the distance between the central axis and the left and right sides of the ejection chute is the same.
[0110] In some embodiments, the width of the track groove 400 is 0.5 mm greater than the diameter of the track bar 140. The width of the track groove 400 is preferably 7 mm.
[0111] In some embodiments, the depth of the track slot 400 is set according to the height of the track slider 140. The height of the track slider 140 is not less than the depth of the track slot 400, and the depth of the track slot 400 is preferably 6 mm.
[0112] Please refer to Figures 11 to 16 In some embodiments, when the track slide bar 140 is located at one end of the track segment 401 away from the first arc segment 403, the length direction of the driving slide slot 160 is perpendicular to the length direction of the push-out slide slot, and the driving slide bar 210 is located in the middle of the driving slide slot 160. The line connecting the driving slide bar 210 and the driving shaft 220 is perpendicular to the driving slide slot 160. When the driving member 250 drives the driving shaft 220 to rotate, the driving slide bar 210 flips and moves with respect to one end of the driving slide slot 160. At this time, due to the limitation of the push-out slide slot, the driven member 600 is driven to move along the length direction of the push-out slide slot.
[0113] In some embodiments, when the track slider 140 is located at an end of the track segment 401 away from the first arc segment 403 , the central axis 150 is coaxial with the driving slider 210 .
[0114] Please refer to Figures 11 to 16 In some embodiments, the air conditioner further comprises a limit rod 230, the limit rod 230 is located on the side of the driving shaft 220 away from the driving slide bar 210, and the limit rod 230 is connected to the driving shaft 220 and the driving slide bar 210. A first stop bar 700 and a second stop bar 900 are provided on the side of the follower 600 away from the bottom plate 300, the first stop bar 700 and the second stop bar 900 are located on one side of the driving slide groove 160, and the first stop bar 700 and the second stop bar 900 are respectively at equal distances from the corresponding ends of the driving slide groove 160. The first stop bar 700 and the second stop bar 900 are used for abutting the limit rod 230. A triangular structure is formed between the limit rod 230, the driving slide bar 210 and the central shaft 150. The driving slide bar 210 drives the follower 600 to move through the driving slide groove 160, and the track slide bar 140 moves in the track segment 401. According to the forward rotation or flipping of the driving shaft 220, the limiting rod 230 is close to the first stop bar 700 or the second stop bar 900. When the track slide bar 140 is located at the connection between the track segment 401 and the first connecting segment 402 and the second connecting segment 404, the limiting rod 230 abuts against the corresponding first stop bar 700 or the second stop bar 900. At this time, the limiting rod 230 is limited by the corresponding first stop bar 700 or the second stop bar 900, so as to ensure that the track slide bar 140 can smoothly enter the corresponding first connecting segment 402 or the second connecting segment 404, thereby avoiding the track slide bar 140 from getting stuck at the connection between the track segment 401 and the first connecting segment 402 and the second connecting segment 404, causing the air guide plate 200 to fail to operate normally.
[0115] In some embodiments, when the track slide bar 140 is located at the end of the track segment 401 away from the first arc segment 403, the first stop bar 700 is close to the second connecting segment 404, and the second stop bar 900 is close to the first connecting segment 402. When the limiting rod 230 abuts against and slides along the length direction of the first stop bar 700, the track slide bar 140 enters the first connecting segment 402 from the track segment 401. When the limiting rod 230 abuts against and slides along the length direction of the second stop bar 900, the track slide bar 140 enters the second connecting segment 404 from the track segment 401.
[0116] Please refer to Figures 11 to 16 In some embodiments, the first stop bar 700 and the second stop bar 900 are arc-shaped and symmetrically arranged, with the center of the first stop bar 700 facing the second stop bar 900, and the center of the second stop bar 900 facing the first stop bar 700. When the limiting rod 230 contacts and abuts the first stop bar 700, it moves along the extension direction of the first stop bar 700, so that the track slide bar 140 can more easily enter the first connecting section 402 from the track section 401. When the limiting rod 230 contacts and abuts the second stop bar 900, it moves along the extension direction of the second stop bar 900, so that the track slide bar 140 can more easily enter the second connecting section 404 from the track section 401.
[0117] Please refer to Figures 11 to 16 In some embodiments, the first limiting groove 800 and the second limiting groove 110 are spaced apart on one side of the follower 600 facing the driving slide bar 210. The first limiting groove 800 and the second limiting groove 110 are located between the first stop bar 700 and the second stop bar 900, and the side wall of the first limiting groove 800 away from the second stop bar 900 is flush with the first stop bar 700, and the side wall of the second limiting groove 110 away from the first stop bar 700 is flush with the second stop bar 900; the first limiting groove 800 and the second limiting groove 110 are used for the limiting rod 230 to be inserted and slide. The first limiting groove 800 and the second limiting groove 110 further limit the moving direction of the limiting rod 230, so that the follower 600 moves along the preset direction, so that the track slide bar 140 can more easily enter the first connecting section 402 or the second connecting section 404 from the track section 401.
[0118] In some embodiments, ends of the first limiting groove 800 and the second limiting groove 110 are both connected to the outside to ensure that the limiting member can smoothly enter and exit the first limiting groove 800 or the second limiting groove 110.
[0119] In some embodiments, the first limiting groove 800 includes a first limiting section 801, the first limiting section 801 is close to the first stop bar 700, and the extension direction of the first limiting section 801 is the same as the extension direction of the first stop bar 700. When the limiting rod 230 enters the first limiting section 801, the limiting rod 230 contacts the outer peripheral wall of the first limiting section 801 and the inner peripheral wall of the first stop bar 700 at the same time, and the moving direction of the limiting rod 230 is further limited by the first limiting groove 800 to limit the moving direction of the follower 600, so that the track slide bar 140 can enter the first connecting section 402 more easily from the track section 401.
[0120] In some embodiments, the first limiting groove 800 further includes a second limiting section 802, and the first limiting section 801 is connected to the second limiting section 802. The second limiting section 802 is inclined from a side away from the first limiting section 801 to a direction away from the second stop bar 900. The limiting rod 230 enters the second limiting section 802 after passing through the first limiting section 801, and the limiting rod 230 slides in the second limiting section 802 to prevent the limiting rod 230 from hitting the follower 600, thereby improving the stability of the operation of the structure.
[0121] In some embodiments, the first limiting section 801 and the second limiting section 802 are connected by rounded corners, and the limiting rod 230 can smoothly enter the second limiting section 802 from the first limiting section 801 when sliding in the first limiting groove 800, thereby avoiding jamming and improving the smoothness of the structure operation.
[0122] In some embodiments, the second limiting groove 110 includes a third limiting section 111, the third limiting section 111 is close to the second stop bar 900, and the extension direction of the third limiting section 111 is the same as the extension direction of the second stop bar 900. When the limiting rod 230 enters the third limiting section 111, the limiting rod 230 contacts the outer peripheral wall of the third limiting section 111 and the inner peripheral wall of the second stop bar 900 at the same time, and the moving direction of the limiting rod 230 is further limited by the second limiting groove 110 to limit the moving direction of the follower 600, so that the track slide bar 140 can more easily enter the first connecting section 402 from the track section 401.
[0123] Please refer to Figures 11 to 16 In some embodiments, the second limiting groove 110 further includes a fourth limiting section 112, and the third limiting section 111 is connected to the fourth limiting section 112. The fourth limiting section 112 is inclined from a side away from the third limiting section 111 to a direction away from the second stop bar 900. The limiting rod 230 enters the fourth limiting section 112 after passing through the third limiting section 111, and the limiting rod 230 slides in the fourth limiting section 112 to prevent the limiting rod 230 from hitting the follower 600, thereby improving the stability of the operation of the structure.
[0124] In some embodiments, the third limiting section 111 and the fourth limiting section 112 are connected by rounded corners, and the limiting rod 230 can smoothly enter the fourth limiting section 112 from the third limiting section 111 when sliding in the second limiting groove 110, thereby avoiding jamming and improving the smoothness of the structure operation.
[0125] In some embodiments, the second limiting segment 802 and the fourth limiting segment 112 pass through the driving slide groove 160 .
[0126] Please refer to Figures 11 to 16 In some embodiments, the side of the follower 600 where the first limiting groove 800 is formed is also provided with a first avoidance groove 120 and a second avoidance groove 130, and the first avoidance groove 120 and the second avoidance groove 130 are used for the limiting rod 230 to pass through. When the track slide bar 140 is located at the first arc segment 403 or the second arc segment 405, the follower 600 rotates around the central axis 150, and the limiting rod 230 will be separated from the first limiting groove 800 or the second limiting groove 110, and the limiting rod 230 will touch the follower 600. Therefore, by setting the first avoidance groove 120 and the second avoidance groove 130, the limiting rod 230 can slide through the first avoidance groove 120 and the second avoidance groove 130. In this way, the stability of the structure operation is improved.
[0127] In some embodiments, the air conditioner further comprises a connecting rod, and the limiting rod 230, the driving slide rod 210 and the driving shaft 220 are all fixed on the connecting rod. The limiting rod 230, the driving slide rod 210 and the driving shaft 220 are connected by the connecting rod.
[0128] Please refer to Figure 20 to Figure 22 In some embodiments, the air conditioner further includes a first gear 190, and the output shaft of the driving member 250 is connected to the second gear 240, and the second gear 240 is meshed with the first gear 190. The limiting rod 230, the driving slide bar 210 and the driving shaft 220 are all arranged on the first gear 190, and the driving shaft 220 is coaxially arranged with the first gear 190. The driving member 250 drives the second gear 240 to rotate, and the second gear 240 is meshed with the first gear 190 to drive the first gear 190 to rotate with the driving shaft 220 as the axis.
[0129] In some embodiments, the connecting rod is disposed on the first gear 190, and the driving shaft 220 is coaxially disposed with the first gear 190. The connecting rod, the first gear 190, the limiting rod 230, the driving slide rod 210 and the driving shaft 220 are integrally formed to enhance the strength of the structure.
[0130] In some embodiments, the pitch circle diameters of the first gear 190 and the second gear 240 are different, and the sizes of the first gear 190 and the second gear 240 are adjusted according to the rotation speed of the driving member 250 .
[0131] In some embodiments, the pitch circle diameter of the first gear 190 is greater than the pitch circle diameter of the second gear 240. By changing the reduction ratio of the first gear 190 and the second gear 240, the accuracy of the rotation angle of the first gear 190 is relatively improved, so that the position of the follower 600 is more accurate, and the stability of the structural operation is improved.
[0132] In some embodiments, the second gear 240 is a common involute gear with a pitch circle diameter of 18 mm and a tooth width of 5 mm.
[0133] In some embodiments, the driving member 250 includes but is not limited to a motor, and is preferably a stepping motor.
[0134] In some embodiments, a middle plate is provided on one side of the bottom plate 300 where the track slide groove 400 is provided, and the driving member 250 is detachably provided on the middle plate. An accommodating cavity is formed between the middle plate and the bottom plate 300, and the driven member 600, the sliding shell 170, the transmission module 180, and the driving slide rod 210 are all located in the accommodating cavity.
[0135] In some embodiments, the output shaft of the driving member 250 passes through the second gear 240, and the second gear 240 is fixed to the output shaft of the driving member 250. The output shaft of the driving member 250 abuts against the middle plate.
[0136] In some embodiments, a positioning hole is opened on the middle plate, and the output shaft of the driving member 250 passes through the second gear 240 and is inserted into the positioning hole.
[0137] In some embodiments, the driving member 250 is mounted on the mid-plate via a threaded connector, and the threaded connector includes but is not limited to screws and bolts.
[0138] In some embodiments, the driving member 250 is snap-fitted to the middle plate. The driving member 250 is connected to the middle plate by snap-fitting or buckling.
[0139] In some embodiments, the sliding shell 170 is long and hollow inside, the transmission module 180 is located inside the sliding shell 170, the length direction of the sliding shell 170 is the same as the length direction of the ejection slot, and when the follower 600 moves, the sliding shell 170 is driven by the central axis 150 to move along the length direction of the ejection slot.
[0140] Please refer to Fig.19In some embodiments, the transmission module 180 includes a first synchronous wheel 181, a second synchronous wheel 182, and a synchronous belt 183 disposed in the sliding shell 170. The axes of the first synchronous wheel 181 and the second synchronous wheel 182 are parallel, and the first synchronous wheel 181 and the second synchronous wheel 182 are spaced apart at both ends of the sliding shell 170. The first synchronous wheel 181 and the second synchronous wheel 182 are rotatably connected to the sliding shell 170, and the synchronous belt 183 is simultaneously sleeved with the first synchronous wheel 181 and the second synchronous wheel 182. The first synchronous wheel 181 is connected to the central shaft 150, and the second synchronous wheel 182 is connected to the air guide plate 200. When the central shaft 150 rotates, the central shaft 150 drives the first synchronous wheel 181 to rotate, the first synchronous wheel 181 drives the second synchronous wheel 182 to rotate through the synchronous belt 183, and the second synchronous wheel 182 drives the air guide plate 200 to flip.
[0141] In some embodiments, the axis of the second synchronization wheel 182 is colinear with the center line of the air guide plate 200 .
[0142] In some embodiments, the center line of the air deflector 200 is in the same direction as the length of the air deflector 200; the center line of the air deflector 200 is at the same distance from both sides of the width direction of the air deflector 200; a plane reference plane perpendicular to the air deflector 200 is defined, and the center line is located in the reference plane; the axis of the second synchronous wheel 182 is located on the reference plane. Ensure that the axis of the air deflector 200 is at the same distance from both sides of the air deflector 200 when it is flipped, so as to ensure that the two sides of the air deflector 200 will not interfere with the housing 100 when it is flipped.
[0143] In some embodiments, the diameters of the first synchronous wheel 181 and the second synchronous wheel 182 are set as required according to the requirements of the flipping speed and angle of the air deflector 200. When the air deflector 200 is required to have a larger flipping speed and angle, the diameter of the second synchronous wheel 182 is smaller than the diameter of the first synchronous wheel 181. When the air deflector 200 is required to have a smaller flipping speed and angle, the diameter of the second synchronous wheel 182 is larger than the diameter of the first synchronous wheel 181.
[0144] In some embodiments, the transmission module 180 is a gear set, and the rotation of the central shaft 150 is transmitted to the air guide plate 200 through the gear set.
[0145] In some embodiments, the connection between the second synchronization wheel 182 and the air guide plate 200 is located at the center line of the air guide plate 200 .
[0146] Please refer to Fig. 22 and Fig.29 In some embodiments, because the air guide plate 200 is first pushed out and then turned over in the present application, in order to avoid interference between the air guide plate 200 that rotates after being pushed out and the housing 100, the air guide plate 200 needs to meet the following conditions:
[0147]
[0148] Wherein, L is the pushing distance of the air guide plate 200 ; W is the width of the air guide plate 200 .
[0149] That is, the pushing distance of the air guide plate 200 is not less than half of the width of the air guide plate 200 , so the air guide plate 200 will not interfere with the housing 100 when rotating after being pushed out, thereby improving the stability of the structural operation.
[0150] Please refer to Fig. 22 , Fig.29 , Fig.31 and Fig.32 In some embodiments, to ensure that the air guide plate 200 can still rotate effectively after being pushed out, the distance from the central axis 150 to the drive shaft 220 is defined as the first distance, and the distance from the drive slide rod 210 to the drive shaft 220 is defined as the second distance; the first distance is less than twice the second distance, and the first distance is greater than 0.4 times the second distance.
[0151] Furthermore, the push-out distance of the air guide plate 200 is not greater than the first distance plus 0.6 times the second distance;
[0152] That is, the following conditions are met:
[0153] 0.4R<D<2R
[0154] L≤D+0.6R
[0155] Wherein, D is the distance from the central axis 150 to the driving axis 220; R is the distance from the driving slide bar 210 to the driving axis 220; and L is the push-out distance of the air guide plate 200. This ensures that the air guide plate 200 can still rotate effectively after being pushed out.
[0156] In some embodiments, the air guide plate 200 is rotationally connected to the transmission module 180 via a flip shaft, and the length direction of the flip shaft is the same as the length direction of the air guide plate 200; the distances from the flip shaft to both sides of the width of the air guide plate 200 are the third distance and the fourth distance respectively;
[0157] The push-out distance of the air guide plate 200 is greater than the third distance, and the push-out distance of the air guide plate 200 is greater than the fourth distance; this ensures that the axis of the air guide plate 200 is at the same distance from both sides of the air guide plate 200 when it is flipped, thereby ensuring that the two sides of the air guide plate 200 will not interfere with the shell 100 when it is flipped.
[0158] In some embodiments, an opening is formed in the middle of the middle plate, and the driving slide rod 210 on the first gear 190 can be placed in the accommodating cavity through the opening and inserted into and slid in the driving slide groove 160 .
[0159] In some embodiments, an end cover is disposed on a side of the middle plate facing away from the bottom plate 300 , and the end cover closes the opening on the middle plate to close the first gear 190 .
[0160] In some embodiments, the bottom plate 300, the middle plate and the end caps are detachably connected. The connection methods between the bottom plate 300, the middle plate and the end caps include but are not limited to snaps, buckles, and threaded connectors.
[0161] In some embodiments, the drive shaft 220 passes through the first gear 190 , and the drive shaft 220 is disposed through and rotatably connected to the end cover.
[0162] In some embodiments, the air conditioner of the present application includes but is not limited to a wall-mounted air conditioner and a vertical air conditioner.
[0163] Please refer to Fig.23 and Fig.24 The present application utilizes the above contents, and drives the second gear 240 to rotate through the driving member 250, and the second gear 240 meshes with the first gear 190 to drive the first gear 190 to rotate with the driving shaft 220 as the axis. The first gear 190 drives the driving slide bar 210 and the limit rod 230 to rotate with the driving shaft 220 as the axis through the connecting rod. Because the central axis 150 on the driven member 600 is connected to the transmission module 180, and the transmission module 180 is arranged in the sliding shell 170, and the sliding shell 170 slides in the push-out chute. Therefore, the driven member 600 only moves along the length direction of the push-out chute. Under the action of the sliding of the driving slide bar 210 in the driving chute 160, the driven member 600 is pulled, and at this time, the track slide bar 140 on the driven member 600 slides in the track section 401. At the same time, the air guide plate 200 connected to the transmission module 180 is pushed out.
[0164] Please refer to Fig.25 and Fig.26When the track slide bar 140 moves to the connection between the track segment 401 and the first connecting segment 402 and the second connecting segment 404, the limiting rod 230 enters the corresponding first limiting groove 800 and the second limiting groove 110, and the limiting rod 230 abuts against the corresponding first stop bar 700 or the second stop bar 900, and the limiting rod 230 is limited by the corresponding first stop bar 700 or the second stop bar 900. The follower 600 continues to move under the action of the driving slide bar 210 and the driving slide groove 160, and at this time the track segment 401 enters the corresponding first connecting segment 402 or the second connecting segment 404. Because the first connecting section 402 and the second connecting section 404 have rounded corners at the connection with the track section 401, the central axis 150 on the follower 600 will rotate at a small angle, and the transmission module 180 will transmit the rotation of the central axis 150 to the air guide plate 200. Therefore, when the track slide bar 140 enters the corresponding first connecting section 402 or second connecting section 404 in the track section 401, the air guide plate 200 will flip at a small angle while being pushed out.
[0165] Please refer to Fig. 27 and Fig.28 When the track slide bar 140 moves in the corresponding first connecting section 402 or the second connecting section 404 , the air guide plate 200 continues to be pushed out.
[0166] Please refer to Fig.29 and Fig.30 When the track slide bar 140 moves to the first arc segment 403 or the second arc segment 405, the central axis 150 is coaxial with the axis of the first arc segment 403 and the second arc segment 405. The follower 600 continues to move under the action of the driving slide bar 210 and the driving slide slot 160, and the central axis 150 slides in the corresponding first arc segment 403 and the second arc segment 405. At this time, the follower 600 only rotates around the central axis 150. The rotation of the central axis 150 is transmitted to the first synchronous wheel 181, and the first synchronous wheel 181 drives the second synchronous wheel 182 to rotate through the synchronous belt 183, and the second synchronous wheel 182 drives the air guide plate 200 to flip, thereby realizing the flipping of the air guide plate 200. In this way, the function of the air guide plate 200 being pushed out first and then rotated is realized.
[0167] The forward or reverse rotation of the driving member 250 changes the moving direction of the limit rod 230. That is, whether the limit rod 230 approaches the first stop bar 700 or the second stop bar 900 is determined by the forward or reverse rotation of the output shaft of the driving member 250. The contact between the limit rod 230 and the first stop bar 700 or the second stop bar 900 determines whether the track slide bar 140 enters the first connecting section 402 or the second connecting section 404. When the track slide bar 140 slides in the first arc segment 403 or the second arc segment 405, because the arc directions of the first arc segment 403 and the second arc segment 405 are different, the rotation direction of the central shaft 150 on the driven member 600 is opposite. The rotation direction of the central shaft 150 corresponds to the rotation direction of the air guide plate 200. Therefore, the flipping direction of the air guide plate 200 can be changed by changing the forward or reverse rotation of the output shaft of the driving member 250.
