[0002] The air guide door of the air conditioner can rotate under the drive of the swing arm to close or open the air outlet. The swing arm of the existing air conditioner is not stably connected to the air guide door, which causes the air guide door to shake during movement, even fall off after long-term operation, and has a short service life. Summary of the invention

[0003] The present invention provides an air conditioner, wherein a swing arm and a first air guide door are effectively fixed to improve the connection firmness between the swing arm and the first air guide door.

[0004] The embodiments of the present invention can be implemented as follows:

[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an air conditioner, comprising a housing, a first air guide door, and a swing arm;

[0006] The shell is provided with an air outlet, and the swing arm is movably arranged on the shell. The swing arm is used to drive the first air guide door to cover or open the air outlet, and in the process of the swing arm driving the first air guide door to rotate, the distance between the two ends of the swing arm and the first air guide door remains unchanged.

[0007] In the above embodiment, both ends of the swing arm are connected to the first air guide gate, and it is ensured that the distance between the two ends of the swing arm and the first air guide gate remains unchanged during the rotation process, so that the swing arm and the first air guide gate are effectively fixed to improve the connection firmness between the swing arm and the first air guide gate, thereby improving the stability of the first air guide gate during the movement; not only that, the existence of the swing arm can also be weakened, thereby reducing the influence of the swing arm on wind resistance.

[0008] In an optional embodiment, the swing arm includes a swinging member and a clamping member, the swinging member is rotatably connected to the shell, the clamping member is connected to the swinging member, and both ends of the clamping member are clamped to the first air guide door.

[0009] In the above embodiment, the swing member is provided with an installation cavity and a wiring channel. The installation cavity is used to install the motor, and the wires connected to the motor are routed through the wiring channel to achieve the purpose of hiding the wiring.

[0010] In an optional embodiment, a first buckle is provided at one end of the clamping member, and a first buckle hole is provided at the other end, and the first air guide door is provided with a second buckle and a second buckle hole, the first buckle and the second buckle hole are clamped together, and the first buckle hole is clamped together with the second buckle.

[0011] In the above embodiment, the first clip is engaged with the second clip hole, and the first clip hole is engaged with the second clip, so that the clip is stably and firmly connected to the first air guide door, thereby improving the stability of the first air guide door during movement.

[0012] In an optional embodiment, the first buckle is provided with a first holding portion, and the first holding portion extends toward the direction of the first holding hole.

[0013] In the above embodiment, the first clamping portion is clamped into the second clamping hole to achieve clamping cooperation between the first clamping buckle and the second clamping hole.

[0014] In an optional embodiment, the second buckle is provided with a second holding portion, and the second holding portion extends in a direction away from the second buckle.

[0015] In the above embodiment, since the first clamping portion extends in the direction toward the first clamping hole and the second clamping portion extends in the direction away from the second buckle, the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion extend in the same direction in the installed state. Therefore, during the installation process, the second clamping portion needs to be inserted into the first clamping hole first, and then the first clamping portion is clamped into the second clamping hole by pressing, so as to achieve "self-locking" between the two ends of the clamping member and the first air guide door, ensuring that the first air guide door is firmly installed on the clamping member, thereby improving the stability of the first air guide door during movement.

[0016] In an optional embodiment, the second buckle and the second buckle hole are distributed on both sides of the first air guide door in the width direction.

[0017] In the above embodiment, the clip extends along the width direction of the first air guide door, and the second clip and the second clip hole are located on both sides of the width direction of the first air guide door. Therefore, the length of the clip is roughly the same as the length of the first air guide door. Therefore, the two ends of the clip are respectively clipped to the two sides of the first air guide door, which can significantly improve the connection firmness between the clip and the first air guide door, thereby improving the stability of the first air guide door during movement.

[0018] In an optional embodiment, the swinging member and the clamping member are integrally formed.

[0019] In the above embodiment, the swing member and the clamping member are made by an integrated molding process, which is convenient to process, can reduce the assembly process, and can improve the structural stability and strength of the swing member and the clamping member.

[0020] In an optional embodiment, there are two swing arms, the two swing arms are respectively located on both sides of the air outlet in the length direction, and the two swing arms are respectively connected to two ends of the first air guide door.

[0021] In the above embodiment, in order to further improve the connection stability between the swing arm and the first air guide door, there are two swing arms, and the two swing arms are respectively located on both sides of the length direction of the air outlet, so that the two swing arms are respectively connected to the two ends of the first air guide door, so that the force of the first air guide door is balanced during the rotation process, thereby further improving the movement stability of the first air guide door.

[0022] In an optional embodiment, the air conditioner also includes a second air guide door, one end of the swing arm is rotatably connected to the shell, and the other end is movably connected to the second air guide door, so that the second air guide door can rotate relative to the first air guide door and be in an unfolded or folded state.

[0023] In the above embodiment, one side of the first air guide door is rotatably connected to the shell via a rotating shaft, and the other side is rotatably connected to the second air guide door, so that the first air guide door and the second air guide door can be relatively rotated to be in a folded state, and only a small space is occupied to accommodate the second air guide door; or the second air guide door is in an extended state, that is, the second air guide door is located on the extension plane of the first air guide door, so as to extend the air guide surface.

[0024] In an optional embodiment, the air conditioner further includes a motor, wherein the motor is disposed on the swing arm, and an output end of the motor is connected to the second air guide door for driving the second air guide door to rotate.

[0025] In the above embodiment, when the first air guide door opens the air outlet, the second air guide door can be driven by a motor to rotate to the extension plane of the first air guide door to serve as an extended air guide surface; and in order to ensure that the second air guide door does not take up space, that is, when the second air guide door is not in use, the second air guide door can be driven by a motor to rotate to overlap with the first air guide door to be in a folded state.

[0026] The beneficial effects of the air conditioner provided by the embodiment of the present invention include: connecting with the first air guide door through a swing arm, and ensuring that the distance between the two ends of the swing arm and the first air guide door remains unchanged during the rotation process, so that the swing arm and the first air guide door are effectively fixed, so as to improve the connection firmness between the swing arm and the first air guide door, and improve the stability of the first air guide door during the movement; not only that, the existence of the swing arm can also be weakened, thereby reducing the influence of the swing arm on wind resistance.

[0043] The air guide door of the air conditioner 10 can rotate under the drive of the swing arm 300 to close or open the air outlet 110. The swing arm 300 of the existing air conditioner 10 is not stably connected to the air guide door, which causes the air guide door to shake during movement, even fall off after long-term operation, and has a short service life.

[0044] Based on the above questions, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The present invention provides an air conditioner 10 , including a housing 100 , a first air guide door 200 , and a swing arm 300 .

[0045] Among them, the shell 100 is provided with an air outlet 110, and the swing arm 300 can be movably arranged on the shell 100, and both ends of the swing arm 300 are clamped with the first air guide door 200, which is used to drive the first air guide door 200 to cover or open the air outlet 110, and in the process of the swing arm 300 driving the first air guide door 200 to rotate, the distance between the two ends of the swing arm 300 and the first air guide door 200 remains unchanged.

[0046] In this embodiment, the swing arm 300 extends along the width direction of the first air guide door 200, so that both ends of the swing arm 300 are connected to the first air guide door 200, so that the swing arm 300 and the first air guide door 200 are effectively fixed to improve the connection firmness between the swing arm 300 and the first air guide door 200, thereby improving the stability of the first air guide door 200 during movement.

[0047] Furthermore, the swing arm 300 includes a swinging member 310 and a clamping member 330 , one end of the swinging member 310 is rotatably connected to the housing 100 via a rotating shaft, the clamping member 330 is connected to the swinging member 310 , and both ends of the clamping member 330 are clamped to the first air guide door 200 .

[0048] In this embodiment, the swing member 310 is provided with an installation cavity 311 and a wiring channel 312. The installation cavity 311 is used to install the motor 600. The wire 400 connected to the motor 600 is routed through the wiring channel 312 to achieve the purpose of hiding the wiring.

[0049] The clamping piece 330 extends along the width direction of the first air guide door 200. The two ends of the clamping piece 330 are respectively clamped on the two sides of the first air guide door 200 to achieve a detachable connection between the clamping piece 330 and the first air guide door 200, thereby facilitating the assembly of the swing arm 300 and the first air guide door 200. This not only facilitates the disassembly, maintenance and replacement of the first air guide door 200, but also ensures the installation stability of the first air guide door 200 and improves the stability of the first air guide door 200 during movement.

[0050] Specifically, the swinging member 310 and the clamping member 330 are integrally formed.

[0051] In this embodiment, the swing member 310 and the clamping member 330 are made by an integrated molding process, which is easy to process, reduces assembly steps, and improves the structural stability and strength of the swing member 310 and the clamping member 330 .

[0052] Furthermore, a first buckle 331 is provided at one end of the clamping member 330 , and a first clamp hole 332 is provided at the other end thereof; and a second buckle 210 and a second clamp hole 220 are provided at the first air guide door 200 .

[0053] In this embodiment, the first clip 331 is clipped to the second clip hole 220, and the first clip hole 332 is clipped to the second clip 210, so that the clip 330 is stably and firmly connected to the first air guide door 200, thereby improving the stability of the first air guide door 200 during movement.

[0054] It should be noted that the inner wall of the first air guide door 200 is provided with protrusions, one of which is a buckle structure, namely the second buckle 210 ; and the other protrusion is provided with a through hole, namely the second buckle hole 220 .

[0055] Of course, in other embodiments, buckles or holes may be provided at both ends of the clamping member 330, and two holes or two buckles may be provided on the first air guide door 200 accordingly, as long as the clamping member 330 can be ensured to be clamped with the first air guide door 200, no specific limitation is made here.

[0056] Furthermore, the first buckle 331 is provided with a first holding portion 333 , and the first holding portion 333 extends toward the direction of the first holding hole 332 .

[0058] Furthermore, the second buckle 210 is provided with a second holding portion 211 , and the second holding portion 211 extends in a direction away from the second buckle 210 .

[0059] In this embodiment, since the first clamping portion 333 extends in the direction toward the first clamping hole 332, and the second clamping portion 211 extends in the direction away from the second buckle 210, in the installed state, the first clamping portion 333 and the second clamping portion 211 extend in the same direction. Therefore, during the installation process, the second clamping portion 211 needs to be inserted into the first clamping hole 332 first, and then the first clamping portion 333 is clamped into the second clamping hole 220 by pressing, so as to achieve "self-locking" between the two ends of the clamping member and the first air guide door 200, ensuring that the first air guide door 200 is firmly installed on the clamping member 330, thereby improving the stability of the first air guide door 200 during movement.

[0060] Furthermore, the second buckle 210 and the second buckle hole 220 are distributed on both sides of the first air guide door 200 in the width direction.

[0061] In this embodiment, the clip 330 extends along the width direction of the first air guide door 200, and the second clip 210 and the second clip hole 220 are located on both sides of the width direction of the first air guide door 200. Therefore, the length of the clip 330 is approximately the same as the length of the first air guide door 200. Therefore, by respectively clipping the two ends of the clip 330 with the two sides of the first air guide door 200, the connection firmness between the clip 330 and the first air guide door 200 can be significantly improved, thereby improving the stability of the first air guide door 200 during movement.

[0062] Furthermore, in order to further improve the connection stability between the swing arm 300 and the first air guide door 200, there are two swing arms 300, and the two swing arms 300 are respectively located on both sides of the length direction of the air outlet 110, so that the two swing arms 300 are respectively connected to the two ends of the first air guide door 200, so that the first air guide door 200 is subjected to balanced force during rotation, thereby further improving the movement stability of the first air guide door 200.

[0063] For further information, see Figures 7 and 8 The air conditioner 10 further includes a second air guide door 500, one end of the swing arm 300 is rotatably connected to the housing 100, and the other end is movably connected to the second air guide door 500, so that the second air guide door 500 can rotate relative to the first air guide door 200 and be in an unfolded or folded state.
