For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0057] The following describes an air guide mechanism 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0058] like Figure 1 and Fig.16 As shown, the air guide mechanism 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a first air guide plate 1 and a second air guide plate 2 .

[0059] Specifically, Figure 5-Figure 8 As shown, the air guide mechanism 10 is used for the air conditioner 100, and the air conditioner 100 includes a housing 20, and the housing 20 has an air outlet 201. The air guide mechanism 10 is rotatably arranged at the air outlet 201 for opening or closing the air outlet 201. The housing 20 of the air conditioner 100 is also provided with an air inlet 202, and the housing 20 is also provided with a fan 30 and a heat exchanger 40. Therefore, when the air conditioner 100 is working, the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 rotate around their rotation axis to open the air outlet 201, and the fan 30 drives the external air to enter the housing 20 through the air inlet 202 and exchange heat with the heat exchanger 40, and the air after heat exchange is blown out through the air outlet 201, so that the indoor temperature can be adjusted. When the air conditioner 100 is not working, the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 rotate in the direction opposite to the opening direction to close the air outlet 201.

[0060] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the first air guide plate 1 has a receiving cavity 11, and the first air guide plate 1 has an opening 12 connected to the receiving cavity 11. The second air guide plate 2 is independently rotatably arranged on the housing 20 with the first air guide plate 1, and at least a portion of the second air guide plate 2 can extend into the receiving cavity 11 through the opening 12.

[0061] It is understandable that the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can be separated, so that the internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 is guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 respectively, and the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can also rotate and swing respectively in the separated state, so that the air guiding effect of the air guide mechanism 10 is better, and the air guiding mechanism 10 has more air guiding directions; at least part of the second air guide plate 2 can extend into the accommodating cavity 11 through the opening 12, and the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can rotate together, so that the internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 is guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2, and the air guiding mechanism 10 has more air guiding directions. According to the different needs of users for the air volume at a specific angle of the air conditioner 100, the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can be adjusted between the separated or matched states to meet the different wind direction needs of users.

[0062] According to the embodiment of the present invention, the air guide mechanism 10 is rotatably disposed at the air outlet 201 of the air conditioner 100 to open or close the air outlet 201 . The second air guide plate 2 and the first air guide plate 1 are independently rotatably arranged on the shell 20 of the air conditioner 100, the first air guide plate 1 has a accommodating chamber 11, the first air guide plate 1 has an opening 12 connected to the accommodating chamber 11, at least a portion of the second air guide plate 2 can extend into the accommodating chamber 11 through the opening 12, the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can be separated, so that the internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 is guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 respectively, and the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can also rotate and swing respectively in the separated state, so that the air guiding effect of the air guide mechanism 10 is better, and the air guiding mechanism 10 has more air guiding directions; at least a portion of the second air guide plate 2 can extend into the accommodating chamber 11 through the opening 12, the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can rotate together, so that the internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 is guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2, and the air guiding mechanism 10 has more air guiding directions. According to different demands of users for the air volume at a specific angle of the air conditioner 100, the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can be adjusted between a separated state and a matched state to meet different wind direction demands of users.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6-Figure 9 As shown, the opening 12 is provided on the end surface of one end of the first air guide plate 1 in the width direction and extends along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1. In this embodiment, the opening 12 is located at the upper end of the first air guide plate 1, and the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 rotate toward the air outlet 201, wherein the second air guide plate 2 rotates upward and the first air guide plate 1 rotates downward. The first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 are separated along the width direction of the first air guide plate 1, so that the internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 meets at the air outlet 201 after being guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2, so that the air flow of the air conditioner 100 flowing out of the air outlet 201 is in a turbulent state, reducing the blowing feeling of the air conditioner 100, and the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can also rotate and swing respectively in the separated state, so that the air guide effect of the air guide mechanism 10 is better.

[0064] At least a portion of the second air guide plate 2 can extend into the accommodating cavity 11 through an opening 12 extending along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1, and the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can rotate upward or downward together, so that the internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 is guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2. The internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 is guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2. The air guide mechanism 10 has more air guiding directions, which can meet the different needs of customers for the air outlet at a specific angle of the air conditioner 100.

[0065] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6-Figure 9As shown, the second air guide plate 2 includes a first air guide portion 21 and a second air guide portion 22 that are interconnected. The first air guide portion 21 can extend into the accommodating cavity 11 through the opening 12. The thickness of the end of the second air guide portion 22 close to the first air guide portion 21 is greater than the width of the opening 12. After the first air guide portion 21 completely enters the accommodating cavity 11, the end of the second air guide portion 22 close to the first air guide portion 21 stops at the opening 12, thereby limiting the second air guide plate 2, so that the matching position of the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 is more reliable.

[0066] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6-Figure 9 As shown, when the first air guide 21 is completely located in the accommodating cavity 11, the two surfaces of the second air guide 22 in the thickness direction are flush with the two surfaces of the first air guide plate 1 in the thickness direction. For example, when the air guide mechanism 10 rotates to close the air outlet of the air conditioner, the second air guide 22 is relatively flush with the surface of the first air guide plate 1 in the thickness direction close to the inside of the air conditioner 100. When the second air guide 22 and the first air guide plate 1 rotate together to guide the air, the airflow inside the air conditioner 100 flows through the second air guide 22 and the surface of the first air guide plate 1 in the thickness direction close to the inside of the air conditioner 100, and the airflow flows relatively smoothly. The second air guide 22 is relatively flush with the surface of the first air guide plate 1 in the thickness direction away from the inside of the air conditioner 100, which can make the exterior of the air conditioner 100 more beautiful.

[0067] In this embodiment, if Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Fig.16 As shown, the first air guide plate 1 includes a first plate 16 and a second plate 17, and the first plate 16 and the second plate 17 are stacked and connected. For example, the first plate 16 and the second plate 17 can be connected by snapping. Parts of the first plate 16 and the second plate 17 are spaced apart to define a receiving cavity 11, and an opening 12 communicating with the receiving cavity 11 is also defined between the first plate 16 and the second plate 17. For example, one end of the first plate 16 and the second plate 17 in the width direction is connected, and the rest of the first plate 16 and the second plate 14 are spaced apart to define the receiving cavity 11, and the other ends of the first plate 16 and the second plate 17 in the width direction are spaced apart to define the opening 12.

[0068] When the air guide mechanism 10 rotates to close the air outlet of the air conditioner 100, the first plate 16 is located on the outside of the second plate 17, and in the cross section perpendicular to the length direction of the first air guide plate 1, the first plate 16 forms an arc shape bulging toward a direction away from the interior of the air conditioner 100, and the second plate 17 forms an arc shape bulging toward a direction away from the interior of the air conditioner 100, and the arc radius of the first plate 16 is greater than the arc radius of the second plate 17.

[0069] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1-Figure 4As shown, the air guide mechanism 10 also includes a first driving mechanism 3 and a second driving mechanism 4. The first driving mechanism 3 is provided on the housing 20 and connected to the first air guide plate 1, and can provide a driving force for the rotation of the first air guide plate 1, and can realize the automation of the rotation of the first air guide plate 1; the second driving mechanism 4 is provided on the housing 20 and connected to the second air guide plate 2, and can provide a driving force for the rotation of the second air guide plate 2, and can realize the automation of the rotation of the second air guide plate 2. By providing two sets of driving mechanisms, the independent rotation of the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can be better realized, and the control of the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 is convenient.

[0070] Furthermore, if Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the first driving mechanism 3 and the second driving mechanism 4 are respectively arranged at both ends of the length direction of the air outlet 201. The driving mechanisms of the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can be arranged separately to avoid mutual influence between the first driving mechanism 3 and the second driving mechanism 4 when working.

[0071] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the first driving mechanism 3 includes a first driving motor 31, which is arranged on the housing 20, and the connection strength of the first driving motor 31 is good. When the air guide mechanism 10 closes the air outlet 201, a first end plate 13 is provided on the inner side of the first air guide plate 1, and the first end plate 13 is connected to the output shaft of the first driving motor 31. It can be understood that a hexagonal rotating shaft 311 can be provided on the output shaft of the first driving motor 31, and the hexagonal rotating shaft 311 on the output shaft of the first driving motor 31 cooperates with the first end plate 13 of the first air guide plate 1. When the first driving motor 31 is working, the output shaft of the first driving motor 31 rotates, and the hexagonal rotating shaft 311 located on the output shaft rotates, driving the first end plate 13 to rotate with the axis of the output shaft of the first driving motor 31 as the axis, thereby driving the first air guide plate 1 to rotate, and the rotation process of the first air guide plate 1 is relatively simple.

[0072] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, when the air guide mechanism 10 closes the air outlet 201, a second end plate 14 is provided on the inner side of the first air guide plate 1, a first rotating arm 23 is provided on the inner side of the second air guide plate 2, the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4 is passed through the second end plate 14 and rotates relative to the second end plate 14, and the first rotating arm 23 is connected to the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4. It can be understood that the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4 is constructed as a rotating shaft of the end of the first air guide plate 1 away from the first driving mechanism 3, so that the two ends of the length direction of the first air guide plate 1 are respectively provided with the rotating shafts of the first air guide plate 1 corresponding to each other, so that the rotation of the first air guide plate 1 can be realized. When the second driving mechanism 4 is working, the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4 rotates, driving the first rotating arm 23 connected thereto to rotate with the axis of the output shaft of the first driving motor 31 as the axis, thereby driving the second air guide plate 2 to rotate, and the rotation process of the second air guide plate 2 is relatively simple.

[0073] In addition, if Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a third rotating arm 25 is provided on the inner side of one end of the second air guide plate 2 close to the first driving mechanism 3, and the output shaft of the first driving motor 31 is passed through the third rotating arm 25 and rotates relative to the third rotating arm 25. The output shaft of the first driving motor 31 is constructed as the rotating axis of the end of the second air guide plate 2 away from the second driving mechanism 4, so that the two ends of the second air guide plate 2 in the length direction are respectively provided with the rotating axes of the second air guide plate 2 corresponding to each other, so that the rotation of the second air guide plate 2 can be realized.

[0074] Further, the second drive mechanism 4 includes a second drive motor, which is disposed on the housing 20, and the output shaft of the second drive motor is configured as the output shaft of the second drive mechanism 4. It can be understood that the output shaft of the second drive motor cooperates with the first rotating arm 23 of the second air guide plate 2. When the second drive motor is working, the output shaft of the second drive motor rotates, driving the first rotating arm 23 to rotate with the axis of the output shaft of the second drive motor as the axis, thereby driving the second air guide plate 2 to rotate, and the rotation process of the second air guide plate 2 is relatively simple.

[0075] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the second drive mechanism 4 includes a second drive motor 41 and a gear set 42. The second drive motor 41 is arranged on the housing 20, and the connection strength of the second drive motor 41 is good. The gear set 42 includes an input gear 421 located at the input end and an output gear 422 located at the output end, the input gear 421 is connected to the output shaft of the second drive motor 41, and the rotating shaft of the output gear 422 is configured as the output shaft of the second drive mechanism 4. It can be understood that a non-circular rotating shaft 43 can be provided on the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4, and the non-circular rotating shaft 43 on the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4 cooperates with the first rotating arm 23 of the second air guide plate 2. When the second driving motor 41 is working, the output shaft of the second driving motor 41 rotates, driving the input gear 421 at the input end to rotate, the input gear 421 engages with the output gear 422, the output gear 422 rotates, and the rotating shaft of the output gear 422, that is, the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4, rotates. The output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4 rotates, and the non-circular rotating shaft 43 located on the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4 rotates, driving the first rotating arm 23 to rotate around the axis of the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4, thereby driving the second air guide plate 2 to rotate, and the rotation process of the second air guide plate 2 is relatively simple.

[0076] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the air guide mechanism 10 further includes a plurality of shutters 5 and a connecting rod 6. When the air guide mechanism 10 closes the air outlet 201, the shutters 5 are rotatably arranged on the inner side of the first air guide plate 1, and the plurality of shutters 5 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1; the connecting rod 6 extends along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1, and the connecting rod 6 is rotatably connected to the plurality of shutters 5, so as to drive the plurality of shutters 5 to rotate synchronously.

[0077] The louver 5 is a fan-shaped structure, and the end of the louver 5 has a mounting portion. Each louver 5 is rotatably arranged on the inner wall of the first air guide plate 1. The first air guide plate 1 has a plurality of louver mounting holes corresponding to the plurality of louvers 5, and the mounting portion at the end of the louver 5 is inserted into the louver mounting hole on the first air guide plate 1. The louver 5 is fixed with the louver mounting hole on the first air guide plate 1. The rotation direction of the plurality of louvers 5 is the direction of the connecting line of the center points of the plurality of louver mounting holes. The plurality of louvers 5 are connected by a connecting rod 6, and the connecting rod 6 can drive the plurality of louvers 5 to rotate synchronously, so as to play a role in guiding the wind, and adjust the flow direction of the airflow flowing out of the air outlet 201 as needed.

[0078] For example, a plurality of louvers 5 are installed on the first air guide plate 1, and the louvers 5 may be four, six, eight, ten or twelve louvers 5 spaced apart from each other, which can improve the air guide effect of the louvers 5. Figure 1 As shown, there are ten louvers 5 spaced apart in the length direction of the first air guide plate 1 , which can make the airflow flowing out of the air outlet 201 flow in a desired direction.

[0079] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the air guide mechanism 10 further includes a third driving mechanism 7, which is disposed on the housing 20 and connected to the connecting rod 6, and is used to drive the connecting rod 6 to move along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1. It can be understood that when the third driving mechanism 7 is working, the third driving mechanism 7 drives the connecting rod 6 to move along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1, and the connecting rod 6 drives the plurality of shutters 5 to rotate, so that the air guide of the air conditioner 100 along the length direction of the first air guide plate can be achieved, and the driving structure of the connecting rod 6 is relatively simple.

[0080] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the rotating shaft of the output gear 422 has a cavity penetrating along the axial direction of the output gear 422, and the third driving mechanism 7 includes a third driving motor 71, a transmission gear and a screw 72. The third driving motor 71 is arranged on the housing 20, and the connection strength of the third driving motor 71 is good. The transmission gear is connected to the output shaft of the third driving motor 71, the screw 72 is penetrated in the cavity and connected to the connecting rod 6, and the screw 72 rotates relative to the output gear 422 and meshes with the transmission gear. It can be understood that when the third drive motor 71 is working, the output shaft of the third drive motor 71 rotates, driving the transmission gear to rotate, and the screw 72 meshing with the transmission gear can move along the left and right directions of the air conditioner 100. The screw 72 drives the connecting rod 6 to move along the left and right directions of the air conditioner 100. The connecting rod 6 drives multiple louvers 5 to rotate, which can realize the left and right directions of the air conditioner 100. The driving structure of the connecting rod 6 is relatively simple, and the movement of the screw 72 along the length direction of the first air guide plate of the air conditioner 100 and the rotation of the output gear 422 of the second drive mechanism 4 will not affect each other, thereby avoiding interference between the movement of the screw 72 and the rotation of the output gear 422, so that the working process of the air guide mechanism 10 is more reliable.

[0081] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the air guide mechanism 10 also includes a connecting member 8, which is connected to the connecting rod 6 and the screw 72 respectively. A connecting member 8 is provided on the inner side of the first air guide plate 1, and the connecting member 8 has an insertion groove. One end of the screw 72 along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1 is inserted into the insertion groove, and one end of the connecting rod 6 along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1 is inserted into the insertion groove. When the screw 72 moves linearly along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1 under the drive of the transmission gear, it drives the connecting member 8 to move, and the connecting member 8 drives the connecting rod 6 to move. The driving structure of the connecting rod 6 is relatively simple. Furthermore, the connecting member 8 includes a first connecting member and a second connecting member. The first connecting member is connected to the connecting rod 6, and the second connecting member is detachably connected to the first connecting member or one end of the second connecting member is rotatably connected to the first connecting member, and the other end is detachably connected to the first connecting member, so as to avoid safety problems such as leakage caused by the exposure of the screw 72. An insertion groove is defined between the second connecting member and the first connecting member, so that when the screw 72 cooperates with the insertion groove, the first connecting member and the second connecting member are separated or the first connecting member and the second connecting member are rotated open, and the insertion groove is in an open state, making the assembly process of the screw 72 and the connecting member 8 relatively simple.

[0082] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, when the air guide mechanism 10 closes the air outlet 201, a second rotating arm 15 is provided on the inner side of the first air guide plate 1, a rotating bracket 24 is provided on the inner side of the second air guide plate 2, and the air guide mechanism 10 further includes a rotating shaft 91, which is passed through the rotating bracket 24 and the second rotating arm 15. The rotating shaft 91 provides better support for the rotating bracket 24 and the second rotating arm 15, so that the rotation of the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 is more reliable.

[0083] It can be understood that the axis of the output shaft of the first drive motor 31 and the axis of the output shaft of the second drive mechanism 4 can extend along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1, and the extension line of the axis of the output shaft of the first drive motor 31 and the extension line of the axis of the output shaft of the second drive mechanism 4 are collinear, the axis of the output shaft of the first drive motor 31 is the rotation axis of the first air guide plate 1, the axis of the output shaft of the second drive mechanism 4 is the rotation axis of the second air guide plate 2, the rotation axis of the first air guide plate 1 passes through the first end plate 13, the second rotating arm 15 and the second end plate 14 in sequence from left to right, and the rotation axis of the second air guide plate 2 passes through the third rotating arm 25, the rotating bracket 24 and the first rotating arm 23 in sequence from left to right. The rotation axes of the first end plate 13, the second rotating arm 15, the second end plate 14, the third rotating arm 25, the rotating bracket 24 and the first rotating arm 23 are all collinear, so that the rotation of the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 is more reliable.

[0084] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the air guide mechanism 10 further includes a fixing member 9. When the air guide mechanism 10 closes the air outlet 201, the fixing member 9 is disposed on the inner side of the first air guide plate 1. The fixing member 9 is engaged with the first air guide plate 1 and is movable along the arrangement direction of the rotating bracket 24 and the second rotating arm 15. The fixing member 9 is connected to a rotating shaft 91. During the assembly process of the air guide mechanism 10, the fixing member 9 moves along the arrangement direction of the rotating bracket 24 and the second rotating arm 15, and stops moving when the rotating shaft 91 on the fixing member 9 penetrates the rotating bracket 24 and the second rotating arm 15, so that the rotating shaft 91 can support the rotating bracket 24 and the second rotating arm 15, so that the rotation of the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 is more reliable.

[0085] The following describes an air guide mechanism 10 according to a specific embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the following description is merely exemplary and is intended to be used to explain the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0086] like Figure 1-Figure 16 As shown, the air guide mechanism 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a first air guide plate 1 and a second air guide plate 2 .

[0087] Specifically, the air guide mechanism 10 is used for the air conditioner 100, which includes a housing 20, and the housing 20 has an air outlet 201. The air guide mechanism 10 is rotatably arranged at the air outlet 201 for opening or closing the air outlet 201. The housing 20 of the air conditioner 100 is also provided with an air inlet 202, and the housing 20 is also provided with a fan 30 and a heat exchanger 40. Therefore, when the air conditioner 100 is working, the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 rotate around their rotation axis to open the air outlet 201, and the fan 30 drives the external air to enter the housing 20 through the air inlet 202 and exchange heat with the heat exchanger 40, and the air after heat exchange is blown out through the air outlet 201, so that the indoor temperature can be adjusted. When the air conditioner 100 is not working, the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 rotate in the direction opposite to the opening direction to close the air outlet 201.

[0088] The first air guide plate 1 has a receiving cavity 11 therein and an opening 12 communicating with the receiving cavity 11. The second air guide plate 2 is rotatably arranged on the housing 20 independently of the first air guide plate 1. At least a portion of the second air guide plate 2 can extend into the receiving cavity 11 through the opening 12.

[0089] It is understandable that the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can be separated, so that the internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 is guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 respectively, and the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can also rotate and swing respectively in the separated state, so that the air guiding effect of the air guide mechanism 10 is better, and the air guiding mechanism 10 has more air guiding directions; at least part of the second air guide plate 2 can extend into the accommodating cavity 11 through the opening 12, and the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can rotate together, so that the internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 is guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2, and the air guiding mechanism 10 has more air guiding directions. According to the different needs of users for the air volume at a specific angle of the air conditioner 100, the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can be adjusted between the separated or matched states to meet the different wind direction needs of users.

[0090] The opening 12 is provided on an end surface of one end of the first air guide plate 1 in the width direction and extends along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1 .

[0091] The opening 12 is located at the upper end of the first air guide plate 1, and the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 rotate toward the air outlet 201, wherein the second air guide plate 2 rotates upward and the first air guide plate 1 rotates downward. The first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 are separated along the width direction of the first air guide plate 1, so that the internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 meets at the air outlet 201 after being guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2, so that the air flow flowing out of the air outlet 201 of the air conditioner 100 is in a turbulent state, reducing the blowing feeling of the air conditioner 100, and the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can also rotate and swing respectively in the separated state, so that the air guide effect of the air guide mechanism 10 is better.

[0092] At least a portion of the second air guide plate 2 can extend into the accommodating cavity 11 through an opening 12 extending along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1, and the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can rotate upward or downward together, so that the internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 is guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2. The internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 is guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2, and the wind speed of the internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 after being guided by the air guide mechanism 10 is faster, which can meet the different needs of customers for the air outlet at a specific angle of the air conditioner 100.

[0093] The second air guide plate 2 includes a first air guide portion 21 and a second air guide portion 22 connected to each other. The first air guide portion 21 can extend into the accommodating cavity 11 through the opening 12, and the thickness of the end of the second air guide portion 22 close to the first air guide portion 21 is greater than the width of the opening 12. After the first air guide portion 21 completely enters the accommodating cavity 11, the end of the second air guide portion 22 close to the first air guide portion 21 stops at the opening 12, so as to limit the position of the second air guide plate 2, so that the matching position of the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 is more reliable. When the first air guide portion 21 is completely located in the accommodating cavity 11, the two surfaces of the second air guide portion 22 in the thickness direction are respectively flush with the two surfaces of the first air guide plate 1 in the thickness direction. The second air guide 22 is flush with the surface of the first air guide plate 1 in the thickness direction close to the inside of the air conditioner 100. When the second air guide 22 and the first air guide plate 1 rotate together to guide the air, the airflow inside the air conditioner 100 flows through the second air guide 22 and the surface of the first air guide plate 1 in the thickness direction close to the inside of the air conditioner 100, and the airflow flows smoothly. The second air guide 22 is flush with the surface of the first air guide plate 1 in the thickness direction away from the inside of the air conditioner 100, which can make the outside of the air conditioner 100 more beautiful.

[0094] The first air guide plate 1 includes a first plate 16 and a second plate 17, which are stacked and connected. For example, the first plate 16 and the second plate 17 can be connected by snapping. Parts of the first plate 16 and the second plate 17 are spaced apart to define a receiving cavity 11, and an opening 12 communicating with the receiving cavity 11 is also defined between the first plate 16 and the second plate 17. For example, one end of the first plate 16 and the second plate 17 in the width direction are connected, the rest of the first plate 16 and the second plate 14 are spaced apart to define the receiving cavity 11, and the other ends of the first plate 16 and the second plate 17 in the width direction are spaced apart to define the opening 12.

[0095] When the air guide mechanism 10 rotates to close the air outlet of the air conditioner 100, the first plate 16 is located on the outside of the second plate 17, and in the cross section perpendicular to the length direction of the first air guide plate 1, the first plate 16 forms an arc shape bulging toward a direction away from the interior of the air conditioner 100, and the second plate 17 forms an arc shape bulging toward a direction away from the interior of the air conditioner 100, and the arc radius of the first plate 16 is greater than the arc radius of the second plate 17.

When the first driving motor 31 is working, the output shaft of the first driving motor 31 rotates, and the hexagonal rotating shaft 311 on the output shaft rotates, driving the first end plate 13 to rotate with the axis of the output shaft of the first driving motor 31 as the axis, thereby driving the first air guide plate 1 to rotate, and the rotation process of the first air guide plate 1 is relatively simple.

[0098] The second drive mechanism 4 includes a second drive motor 41 and a gear set 42. The second drive motor 41 is disposed on the housing 20, and the connection strength of the second drive motor 41 is good.

It can be understood that a non-circular rotating shaft 43 can be provided on the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4, and the non-circular rotating shaft 43 on the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4 cooperates with the first rotating arm 23 of the second air guide plate 2. When the second driving motor 41 is working, the output shaft of the second driving motor 41 rotates, driving the input gear 421 at the input end to rotate, the input gear 421 engages with the output gear 422, the output gear 422 rotates, and the rotating shaft of the output gear 422, that is, the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4, rotates. The output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4 rotates, and the non-circular rotating shaft 43 located on the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4 rotates, driving the first rotating arm 23 to rotate around the axis of the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 4, thereby driving the second air guide plate 2 to rotate, and the rotation process of the second air guide plate 2 is relatively simple.

[0099] The air guide mechanism 10 also includes ten louvers 5 and a connecting rod 6. When the air guide mechanism 10 closes the air outlet 201, the louvers 5 are rotatably arranged on the inner side of the first air guide plate 1, and the ten louvers 5 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1; the connecting rod 6 extends along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1, and the connecting rod 6 is rotatably connected to the ten louvers 5, and is used to drive the ten louvers 5 to rotate synchronously. The louvers 5 are fan-shaped structures, and the ends of the louvers 5 have mounting portions, and each louver 5 is rotatably arranged on the inner wall of the first air guide plate 1. The first air guide plate 1 has ten louver mounting holes corresponding to the ten louvers 5, and the mounting portions at the ends of the louvers 5 are inserted into the louver mounting holes on the first air guide plate 1, and the louvers 5 are fixed in cooperation with the louver mounting holes on the first air guide plate 1.

The ten louvers 5 are connected by a connecting rod 6, and the connecting rod 6 can drive the ten louvers 5 to rotate synchronously, thereby playing a wind guiding role and adjusting the direction of the airflow flowing out from the air outlet 201 as needed.

[0100] The air guide mechanism 10 also includes a third driving mechanism 7, which is arranged on the housing 20 and connected to the connecting rod 6, and is used to drive the connecting rod 6 to move along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1. The rotating shaft of the output gear 422 has a cavity that penetrates along the axial direction of the output gear 422. The third driving mechanism 7 includes a third driving motor 71, a transmission gear and a screw 72. The third driving motor 71 is arranged on the housing 20, and the connection strength of the third driving motor 71 is good. The transmission gear is connected to the output shaft of the third driving motor 71, the screw 72 is penetrated in the cavity and connected to the connecting rod 6, and the screw 72 rotates relative to the output gear 422 and meshes with the transmission gear.

[0104] The air conditioner 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0105] like Figure 5-Figure 15 As shown, the air conditioner 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention comprises a housing 20 and the above-mentioned air guide mechanism 10.

[0107] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5-Figure 8 As shown, when the air guide mechanism 10 closes the air outlet 201, at least part of the second air guide plate 2 is located in the accommodating cavity 11. The first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 jointly close the air outlet 201, and when the first air guide plate 1 or the second air guide plate 2 is impacted by an external force, the stress can be dispersed, and the strength of the air guide mechanism 10 is better.

[0108] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5-Figure 8 As shown, the first air guide plate 1 is rotatably arranged inside the air outlet 201, and the first air guide plate 1 can rotate toward the inside of the air outlet 201 toward both sides of the width direction of the air outlet 201. When the air conditioner 100 is in cooling mode, the first air guide plate 1 can rotate downward, so that the airflow is blown out more upward, and the colder airflow gradually decreases, so as to achieve uniform temperature in the vertical direction of the room; when the air conditioner 100 is in heating mode, the first air guide plate 1 can rotate upward, so that the airflow is blown out more downward, and the hotter airflow gradually rises, so as to achieve uniform temperature in the vertical direction of the room. And during the operation of the air conditioner 100, the air sweeping of the air conditioner 100 can be realized by switching the rotation direction of the two ends of the air guide mechanism 10, so that users can have more choices when using the air conditioner 100 to meet the different needs of customers.

[0109] The opening 12 is provided on the end surface of one end of the first air guide plate 1 in the width direction and extends along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1. In this embodiment, the opening 12 is located at the upper end of the first air guide plate 1, and the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 rotate toward the air outlet 201, wherein the second air guide plate 2 rotates upward and the first air guide plate 1 rotates downward. The first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 are separated along the width direction of the first air guide plate 1, so that the internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 meets at the air outlet 201 after being guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2, so that the air flow of the air conditioner 100 flowing out of the air outlet 201 is in a turbulent state, reducing the blowing feeling of the air conditioner 100, and the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can also rotate and swing respectively in the separated state, so that the air guide effect of the air guide mechanism 10 is better.

[0110] At least a portion of the second air guide plate 2 can extend into the accommodating cavity 11 through an opening 12 extending along the length direction of the first air guide plate 1, and the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 can rotate upward or downward together, so that the internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 is guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2. The internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 is guided by the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2, and the wind speed of the internal air flow of the air conditioner 100 after being guided by the air guide mechanism 10 is faster, which can meet the different needs of customers for the air outlet at a specific angle of the air conditioner 100.

[0111] For example, when the air conditioner 100 is an indoor mounted air conditioner, the second air guide plate 2 is located above the first air guide plate 1 in the up and down direction.

[0112] When the air conditioner 100 is turned on and in cooling mode, Figure 9-12 As shown, the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 rotate toward the air outlet 201, wherein the second air guide plate 2 rotates upward around its rotation axis, and the first air guide plate 1 rotates downward around its rotation axis. The upper end of the air outlet 201 of the air conditioner 100 is opened, and the relatively cold air flow inside the air conditioner 100 flows out from the upper end of the air outlet 201, and the relatively cold air flow gradually decreases, so as to achieve uniform temperature in the upper and lower directions of the room. The first air guide plate 1 is stationary at the bottom or the first air guide plate 1 swings toward the inside of the air outlet 201, and the second air guide plate 2 swings toward the inside of the air outlet 201, and the distance between the air outlet ends of the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 gradually decreases and then gradually increases, the first air guide plate 1 continuously swings downward to guide the air, and the second air guide plate 2 continuously swings upward to guide the air, thereby forming a pulsating air supply effect in the cooling mode, which can form a gust of cool wind blowing on the face, and effectively increases the comfort of air supply.

[0113] When the air conditioner 100 is turned on and in the heating mode, Figure 13-Figure 15As shown, at least part of the second air guide plate 2 extends into the accommodating cavity 11 through the opening 12, the lower end of the second air guide portion 22 abuts against the opening 12 of the first air guide plate 1, the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 cooperate to rotate synchronously to guide the air, and the wind speed of the internal airflow of the air conditioner 100 after being guided by the air guide mechanism 10 is relatively fast. The first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 rotate upward around the rotation axis of the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2, and open at the lower end of the air outlet 201 of the air conditioner 100, and the hotter airflow inside the air conditioner 100 flows out from the lower end of the air outlet 201, and the hotter airflow gradually rises, so as to achieve uniform temperature in the upper and lower directions of the room. Moreover, the first air guide plate 1 and the second air guide plate 2 rotate to the position of guiding the air downward, so that the hotter airflow inside the air conditioner 100 can be better guided out from the lower end of the air outlet 201, and the hotter airflow can be fully guided to the ground, which greatly enhances the effect of ground air supply.
