[0083] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0084] The driving component 400 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0085] like Figures 1-4 and Figures 28-30As shown, the drive assembly 400 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a drive box 60, a first drive member 410 and a second drive member 420.

[0086] The drive box 60 includes an upper cover 64 and a box body 61. The upper cover 64 is placed on and connected to the box body 61. The upper cover 64 has a first drive hole 644 and a clearance hole 643. At least a portion of the first drive member 410 is disposed inside the box body 61. The output shaft of the first drive member 410 is rotatably disposed inside the first drive hole 644 and is used to drive the door 300 to rotate. At least a portion of the second drive member 420 is disposed inside the box body 61. The second drive member 420 includes a connecting plate 301. The connecting plate 301 is rotatably disposed inside the clearance hole 643 and rotates synchronously with the output shaft of the first drive member 410 and is used to drive the air guide grille 200 to rotate. The door 300 and the air guide grille 200 rotate. The connecting plate 301 and the output shaft of the first drive member 410 are spaced apart in the radial direction.

[0087] It is understood that at least a portion of the first drive component 410 and the second drive component 420 are located within the drive housing 60. The drive housing 60 can protect the first drive component 410 and the second drive component 420 to a certain extent, preventing external oil stains, dust, and other contaminants from contaminating the first drive component 410 and the second drive component 420 and causing damage. At the same time, the design of the drive housing 60, including the top cover 64 and the housing body 61, makes the disassembly and assembly of the components within the drive housing 60 more convenient, helping to simplify the maintenance and repair process and reduce operational difficulty and costs.

[0088] Specifically, the switch door 300 can be connected to the output shaft of the first drive member 410 so that the first drive member 410 drives the switch door 300 to rotate. The connecting plate 301 can be connected to the connecting plate 301 so that the second drive member 420 drives the air guide grille 200 to rotate, so that the switch door 300 and the air guide grille 200 rotate coaxially. That is, the rotation axes of the switch door 300 and the air guide grille 200 coincide, thereby effectively utilizing space and reducing the volume of the air outlet structure 1001 or air conditioner 1000 that uses the drive component 400.

[0089] Meanwhile, by setting the connecting plate 301 and the output shaft of the first drive component 410 at radial intervals, the rotation trajectories of the switch door 300 and the air guide grille 200 can always remain concentric circles with different radii, thus avoiding mutual interference when they rotate. This facilitates the normal rotation of the switch door 300 and the air guide grille 200, preventing accidental collisions and ensuring the stability and reliability of the drive assembly 400 and the air outlet structure 1001, reducing the risk of damage to the air outlet structure 1001, and consequently extending its service life. Furthermore, by setting the connecting plate 301 and the output shaft of the first drive component 410 to rotate synchronously and at radial intervals, when assembling the drive assembly 400, the switch door 300 located at the output shaft of the first drive component 410 can be installed first, followed by the air guide grille 200 located on the radially outer side, effectively reducing assembly difficulty and improving assembly efficiency.

[0090] In addition, since the door 300 is connected to the output shaft of the first drive member 410, and the air guide grille 200 is connected to the connecting plate 301 of the second drive member 420, the upper cover 64 has a first drive hole 644 and a clearance hole 643, so that the output shaft of the first drive member 410 is rotatably disposed in the first drive hole 644, and the connecting plate 301 is rotatably disposed in the clearance hole 643. This ensures the reliability and stability of the first drive member 410 driving the door 300 to rotate, and also ensures the reliability and stability of the second drive member 420 driving the air guide grille 200 to rotate, thereby improving the overall reliability of the drive assembly 400.

[0091] In some embodiments, when the drive assembly 400 is applied to the air conditioner 1000, the switch door 300 is located at the air outlet 202, and the air guide grille 200 is located at the air outlet 202. The switch door 300 can be connected to the output shaft of the first drive member 410, so that the switch door 300 is connected to the drive assembly 400, allowing the switch door 300 to rotate around its rotation axis while supporting and fixing the switch door 300. When the air conditioner 1000 is supplying air, the switch door 300 can be rotated to the position where the air outlet 202 is open to ensure airflow and reduce air volume loss; when the air conditioner 1000 is turned off, the switch door 300 can be rotated to the position where the air outlet 202 is closed, which can play a dustproof role to ensure the cleanliness of the air conditioner 1000. The air guide grille 200 can be connected to the connecting plate 301 of the second drive member 420, so that the air guide grille 200 is connected to the drive assembly 400, allowing the air guide grille 200 to rotate around its rotation axis while supporting and fixing the air guide grille 200. When the air conditioner 1000 supplies air, the air guide grille 200 can be rotated to different angles to supply air at different angles in the width direction of the air outlet 202. The air guide grille 200 can also play a certain role in preventing dust to ensure the cleanliness of the inside of the air conditioner 1000.

[0092] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the drive assembly 400 includes a drive box 60 comprising an upper cover 64 and a box body 61. The upper cover 64 is disposed on and connected to the box body 61. The upper cover 64 has a first drive hole 644 and a clearance hole 643. At least a portion of the first drive member 410 is disposed within the box body 61. The output shaft of the first drive member 410 is rotatably disposed within the first drive hole 644 for driving the door 300 to rotate. At least a portion of the second drive member 420 is disposed within the box body 61. The second drive member 420 includes a connecting plate 301. The connecting plate 301 is rotatably disposed within the clearance hole 643 and rotates synchronously with the output shaft of the first drive member 410 for driving the air guide grille 200 to rotate. By rotating the door 300 and the air guide grille 200, space is effectively utilized, and the volume of the air outlet structure 1001 or air conditioner 1000 using the drive assembly 400 is reduced. Meanwhile, by setting the connecting plate 301 and the output shaft of the first driving component 410 at a distance in the radial direction, the connection position between the first driving component 410 and the door 300 and the connection position between the second driving component 420 and the air guide grille 200 are separated, which effectively avoids interference between the rotation of the door 300 and the air guide grille 200, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the driving component 400.

[0093] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figures 8-10 , Figure 29 and Figure 30As shown, the box body 61 has a motor slot 611, which is open on the side opposite to the upper cover 64. The bottom wall of the motor slot 611 has a second drive hole 6100 opposite to the first drive hole 644. The output shaft of the first drive member 410 is rotatably disposed in the second drive hole 6100. This arrangement allows the output shaft of the first drive member 410 to be rotatably disposed in the first drive hole 644 and the second drive hole 6100, thereby driving the rotating component connected to the output shaft of the first drive member 410 to rotate, making the layout of the drive box 60 more rational.

[0094] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 3-5 and Figures 28-30 As shown, the first driving component 410 includes a door opening / closing motor 62 and a non-circular shaft 622. The door opening / closing motor 62 is disposed within a motor slot 611, and its output shaft is rotatably disposed within a second driving hole 6100. The non-circular shaft 622 is sleeved on the output shaft of the door opening / closing motor 62 and rotatably passes through both the first driving hole 644 and the second driving hole 6100. The non-circular shaft 622 constitutes the output shaft of the first driving component 410.

[0095] Understandably, by setting a non-circular shaft 622 and fitting it onto the output shaft of the door opening / closing motor 62, the output force of the door opening / closing motor 62 is transmitted to the door opening / closing 300 via the non-circular shaft 622. This structural design is reasonable, reduces assembly difficulty, and thus improves the assembly and production efficiency of the drive assembly 400. Simultaneously, the non-circular shaft 622 can serve as an extension of the output shaft of the door opening / closing motor 62 and act as a transmission mechanism, transmitting the torque output by the door opening / closing motor 62 to the door opening / closing 300, thereby driving the door opening / closing 300 to rotate. Furthermore, by placing the door opening / closing motor 62 within the motor slot 611, the drive box 60 can, to a certain extent, protect the door opening / closing motor 62 from external oil, dust, and other contaminants, preventing damage to the motor.

[0096] Preferably, the non-circular shaft 622 is made of insulating material, which can solve the problems of static electricity on the output shaft of the door opening and closing motor 62 and damage to components such as the door opening and closing 300 when the power of the door opening and closing motor 62 suddenly increases. This can effectively improve the stability and reliability of the first driving component 410 and extend the service life of the first driving component 410.

[0097] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 5-9As shown, the top cover 64 has a fastening post 642 on the side facing the box body 61. The box body 61 has a first fixing hole 6101 corresponding to the fastening post 642, and the door opening / closing motor 62 has a second fixing hole 623 corresponding to the first fixing hole 6101. Fasteners are inserted into the fastening post 642, the first fixing hole 6101, and the second fixing hole 623. This arrangement secures the top cover 64, the box body 61, and the door opening / closing motor 62 together, thereby ensuring reliable connection between the three and improving overall reliability.

[0098] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 5-9 As shown, there are two fastening posts 642, located on opposite sides of the first drive hole 644. There are two first fixing holes 6101 corresponding to each fastening post 642, and two second fixing holes 623 corresponding to each fastening post 642. Thus, by having two fasteners inserted into the corresponding fastening posts 642, the corresponding first fixing holes 6101, and the corresponding second fixing holes 623, the connection strength between the top cover 64, the box body 61, and the door opening / closing motor 62 is further improved.

[0099] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 3-10 , Figure 29 and Figure 30 As shown, the box body 61 has an output hole 6102, and the second driving member 420 includes an air guide grille motor 63, an input gear 631, and an output gear 632. The air guide grille motor 63 is located within a motor slot 611, and its output shaft is rotatably mounted within the output hole 6102. A portion of the input gear 631 is located between the box body 61 and the upper cover 64, and is connected to the output shaft of the air guide grille motor 63. The output gear 632 is located between the box body 61 and the upper cover 64, meshing with the input gear 631. The output gear 632 has a clearance hole 633 opposite to the second driving member 420, and the output shaft of the first driving member 410 passes through the clearance hole 633. A connecting plate 301 is located at one axial end of the output gear 632.

[0100] Understandably, the air guide grille 200 can be connected to the connecting plate 301 on the output gear 632. The output gear 632 meshes with the input gear 631, and the input gear 631 is connected to the output shaft of the air guide grille motor 63. The structure of the second drive component 420 is reasonably designed, which can reduce assembly difficulty and thus improve the assembly efficiency and production efficiency of the drive assembly 400. At the same time, the input gear 631 can serve as an extension of the output shaft of the door opening and closing motor 62 and play a transmission role. The output gear 632 meshes with the input gear 631, transmitting the torque output by the air guide grille motor 63 to the input gear 631, which then transmits the torque to the output gear 632. The output gear 632 rotates synchronously with the air guide grille 200, thereby achieving stable and reliable driving of the air guide grille 200.

[0101] Meanwhile, with the air guide grille motor 63 located inside the motor slot 611, the box body 61 can protect the air guide grille motor 63 to a certain extent, effectively preventing external oil stains, dust, and other contaminants from polluting the air guide grille motor 63 and causing damage to it. Furthermore, with the output gear 632 and input gear 631 both located between the box body 61 and the top cover 64, the drive box 60 can also protect the output gear 632 and input gear 631 to a certain extent, effectively preventing external oil stains, dust, and other contaminants from polluting the output gear 632 and input gear 631 and causing damage to them.

[0102] Specifically, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figures 28-34As shown, when the door 300 is the door 300 and the air guide grille 200 is the air guide grille 200, the door motor 62 is the door motor 62 and the air guide grille motor 63 is the air guide grille motor 63. The door 300 includes a door body 51 and a rotating arm 55. By setting the rotating arm 55, it is possible to facilitate the connection between the door 300 and the non-circular shaft 622, which can reduce the assembly difficulty and thus improve the assembly efficiency and production efficiency of the drive components. A rotating arm 55 is located on one side of the door body 51 along its thickness. One end of the rotating arm 55 along its length is fixedly connected to the door body 51, and the other end is provided with a limiting post 551. The limiting post 551 has a non-circular hole 552, which extends along the axial direction of the limiting post 551. A non-circular shaft 622 passes through the non-circular hole 552. The rotating arm 55 can extend the distance between the door body 51 and the non-circular shaft 622, thus separating the door body 51 from the first driving member 410. When the drive motor of the door 300 drives the door 300 to rotate, it can prevent the door body 51 from colliding with the first driving member 410. The structural design is reasonable, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the door 300 opening or closing the air outlet 202. Furthermore, the cooperation between the non-circular shaft 622 and the non-circular hole 552 makes the connection method of the first driving member 410 driving the door 300 to rotate relatively simple and reliable.

[0103] The connecting plate 301 is provided with a first pin hole 3011. The air guide grille 200 includes a grille body 41 with a pin 45. The pin 45 is inserted into the first pin hole 3011, thereby connecting the connecting plate 301 and the grille body 41 so that the output gear 632 can drive the air guide grille 200 to rotate. At least part of the limiting post 551 passes through the clearance hole 633, so that the rotation axis of the switch door 300 coincides with the axis of the output shaft of the first drive member 410, and thus the rotation axis of the switch door 300 coincides with the rotation axis of the air guide grille 200. The rotation trajectory of the switch door 300 and the rotation trajectory of the air guide grille 200 can always remain as concentric circles with different radii. Therefore, the switch door 300 and the air guide grille 200 can avoid mutual interference when rotating. This facilitates the normal rotation of the door 300 and the air guide grille 200, preventing accidental collisions between the door 300 and the air guide grille 200 when they are driven to rotate separately. This ensures the stability and reliability of the drive assembly 400 and the air outlet structure 1001, reduces the risk of damage to the air outlet structure 1001, and helps extend the service life of the air outlet structure 1001.

[0104] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the diameter of the input gear 631 is smaller than the diameter of the output gear 632. This arrangement increases the transmission ratio, allowing the output gear 632 to obtain greater driving force, thereby more effectively rotating the air guide grille 200.

[0105] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 8 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the wall of the box body 61 facing the upper cover 64 has an annular oil groove 6103, the annular oil groove 6103 surrounds the second drive hole 6100, and the output gear 632 has an annular extension 6321 at one end axially away from the connecting plate 301, at least a portion of the extension 6321 extending into the annular oil groove 6103. It is understandable that, since the output gear 632 is rotatably disposed between the box body 61 and the upper cover 64, and the output gear 632 is provided with the clearance hole 633 opposite to the second driving member 420, the extension 6321 of the output gear 632 axially away from the connecting plate 301 extends into the annular oil groove 6103. The annular oil groove 6103 contains lubricating oil, which can reduce the friction between the output gear 632 and the box body 61 when the output gear 632 rotates, thereby improving the smoothness of the rotation of the output gear 632, and further improving the rotational reliability of the air guide grille 200 connected to the connecting plate 301 of the output gear 632.

[0106] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the output gear 632 has multiple teeth 6322 that mesh with the input gear 631. These teeth are spaced apart circumferentially. A positioning plate 6323 is positioned between any two adjacent teeth 6322, located on the side of the teeth 6322 away from the connecting plate 301 and connected to both teeth 6322. This positioning plate 6323 enhances the overall structural strength of the output gear 632, making it more resistant to the forces generated by the meshing of the teeth 6322, thus reducing positioning errors caused by structural deformation. Simultaneously, the contact between the positioning plate 6323 and the input gear 631 ensures that the input gear 631 is accurately positioned and fixed in the axial direction of the output gear 632, preventing movement during operation that could affect transmission efficiency and stability, and effectively improving overall reliability.

[0107] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 12As shown, the outer wall of the clearance hole 633 is provided with an oil storage groove 634. The oil storage groove 634 extends along the axial direction of the clearance hole 633, and there are multiple oil storage grooves 634 arranged sequentially at intervals along the circumferential direction of the clearance hole 633. It can be understood that the oil storage groove 634 contains lubricating oil, which can reduce the friction between the side walls of the clearance hole 633 and the clearance hole 643 when the air guide grille 200 rotates, thereby improving the smoothness of rotation and thus improving the rotational reliability of the air guide grille 200 connected to the connecting plate 301 of the output gear 632.

[0108] Furthermore, the oil reservoir 634 and the clearance hole 633 extend in the same direction, which helps reduce the machining difficulty of the oil reservoir 634, thereby effectively reducing the production and machining costs of the clearance end plate and the oil reservoir 634 and improving production efficiency. On the other hand, the oil reservoir 634 extends along the axial direction of the clearance hole 633, which ensures that the lubricating oil is evenly distributed in the axial direction of the outer peripheral wall of the clearance hole 633, so as to ensure the lubrication effect of the lubricating oil, thereby further improving the smoothness and stability of the output gear 632 rotating in the clearance hole 643.

[0109] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 12 As shown, the oil guide grooves extend along the axial direction of the clearance hole 643. There are multiple oil guide grooves, which are arranged sequentially at intervals along the circumferential direction of the clearance hole 643. It can be understood that the oil guide grooves contain lubricating oil. By setting multiple oil guide grooves, the lubricating oil can be distributed at multiple points along the circumferential direction of the inner wall surface of the clearance hole 643, thereby ensuring the lubrication effect of the lubricating oil. When the air guide grille 200 rotates, it effectively reduces the friction between the second driving component 420 and the clearance hole 643, thereby improving the smoothness and stability of the rotation of the second driving component 420 within the clearance hole 643.

[0110] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 5-7 As shown, the top cover 64 and the box body 61 are snap-fitted together. This snap-fit ​​connection enables the top cover 64 and the box body 61 to be connected, allowing for quick installation and removal of both, thus improving assembly and disassembly efficiency.

[0111] Furthermore, the outer peripheral wall of the cover 64 has a plurality of cover latches 645 that are snapped together with the box body 61. The plurality of cover latches 645 are spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the cover 64. Thus, the connection reliability between the cover 64 and the box body 61 is further improved by snapping together with the box body 61 through the plurality of cover latches 645.

[0112] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 1-5 and Figure 11As shown, the drive box 60 also includes a lower cover 65, which is connected to the box body 61 and is used to seal the opening of the motor slot 611. It can be understood that after the various components located in the motor slot 611 are installed into the motor slot 611 through the opening, the upper cover 64 seals the opening of the motor slot 611, ensuring the airtightness of the box body 61 and improving the reliability of the drive box 60.

[0113] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 11 As shown, the outer peripheral wall of the lower cover 65 has a cover flange 651 that bends towards the box body 61. The cover flange 651 extends along the circumferential direction of the lower cover 65, and the inner sidewall of the cover flange 651 fits against the outer peripheral wall of the box body 61. Thus, by fitting the inner sidewall of the cover flange 651 against the outer peripheral wall of the box body 61, the sealing effect of the lower cover 65 on the motor groove 611 is further ensured, and the reliability of the drive box 60 is further improved.

[0114] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 11 As shown, the lower cover 65 is snap-fitted to the box body 61. This snap-fit ​​connection enables the lower cover 65 and the box body 61 to be connected, allowing for quick installation and removal of both, thus improving assembly and disassembly efficiency.

[0115] Furthermore, the outer peripheral wall of the lower cover 65 has a plurality of lower cover latches 652 that are snapped together with the box body 61. The plurality of lower cover latches 652 are spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the lower cover 65. Thus, the connection reliability between the lower cover 65 and the box body 61 is further improved by snapping together with the box body 61 through the plurality of lower cover latches 652.

[0116] like Figures 14-18 As shown, the box body 61 has a motor slot 611 for accommodating a motor and a wiring structure 612. The wiring structure 612 includes a wire outlet 6121 and a wire passage 6124. The wire outlet 6121 is located on the side wall of the box body 61, and the wire passage 6124 is located on the bottom wall of the motor slot 611. The angle between the extension direction of the wire passage 6124 and the axial direction of the wire outlet 6121 is an acute angle. The motor wire 621 is adapted to be located in the wire passage 6124 and pass through the wire outlet 6121.

[0117] It is understandable that the motor is accommodated by the motor slot 611 of the box body 61, thereby protecting and supporting the motor, effectively preventing external impurities from entering the motor and affecting its performance, and effectively preventing the motor from shifting due to vibration or external force during operation.

[0118] The motor's wire 621 is electrically connected to the drive box 60 via the wire guide 6124 and exit from the outlet 6121. When the wire 621 is pulled, the angle between the extension direction of the wire guide 6124 and the axial direction of the outlet 6121 is acute. At this acute angle, the wire 621 generates a large reverse force and a component of the pulling force, thus balancing the pulling force and preventing it from being transmitted to the motor's terminals. This effectively avoids the terminals from becoming loose due to tension, leading to poor contact. Therefore, this design ensures that the wire 621 will not exert any pulling force on the terminals throughout the entire product lifecycle (including assembly and operation), reducing the failure rate and improving reliability.

[0119] Meanwhile, with the cable outlet 6121 located on the side wall of the box body 61 and the cable tray 6124 located on the bottom wall of the motor tray 611, it is convenient for the wires 621 to be arranged within the wiring structure 612. This facilitates assembly while preventing the plug terminals from being pulled, reducing assembly difficulty and improving assembly efficiency. Furthermore, the cable outlet 6121 on the side wall of the box body 61 and the cable tray 6124 on the bottom wall of the motor tray 611 result in a simple wiring structure 612 that occupies little space in the drive box 60. This effectively simplifies the structure of the drive box 60, simplifies mold design, improves production efficiency, and reduces costs.

[0120] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 16 and Figure 18 As shown, the bottom wall of the motor slot 611 has a first baffle 613 and a second baffle 614, which are spaced apart, and a wire passage groove 6124 is formed between the first baffle 613 and the second baffle 614.

[0121] Therefore, the pulling force is balanced by the acute angle between the extension direction of the cable tray 6124 formed between the first baffle 613 and the second baffle 614 and the axial direction of the cable outlet 6121. Simultaneously, the spaced first baffle 613 and second baffle 614 provide support and fixation for the wire 621 within the cable tray 6124, effectively preventing the wire 621 from moving or swaying within the cable tray 6124, thus avoiding damage to the wire 621 due to friction or noise generation. Furthermore, the first baffle 613 and second baffle 614 enhance the structural strength and stability of the cable tray 6124, enabling it to withstand certain external forces or pressures, preventing deformation or damage to the cable tray 6124 due to stress, and ensuring the reliability of the cable routing structure 612.

[0122] It should be noted that the wire channel 6124 can also be a groove in which the bottom wall of the motor channel 611 is recessed toward the opening 6122 away from the motor channel 611, thereby cooperating with the wire outlet 6121 to ensure that the wire 621 will not pull on the plug terminal throughout the entire product life cycle (including the assembly and operation stages), thereby reducing the failure rate and improving reliability.

[0123] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 14-18 As shown, the first baffle 613 and the second baffle 614 are arranged in parallel. This arrangement further ensures that the angle between the extension direction of the cable groove 6124 formed by the first baffle 613 and the second baffle 614 and the axial direction of the cable outlet 6121 is an acute angle, further improving reliability. Simultaneously, the parallel arrangement of the first baffle 613 and the second baffle 614 allows them to support each other, forming a stable structural frame that effectively disperses and bears forces from different directions, contributing to improved overall structural stability and preventing deformation or damage caused by external forces.

[0124] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 19 and Figure 20 As shown, the outlet 6121 has an opening 6122 that connects to the open opening of the motor slot 611. The width of the opening 6122 is less than the maximum distance between any two points on the outline of the outlet 6121, and the width of the opening 6122 is less than the diameter of the motor wire 621. Therefore, this design of the opening 6122 secures the wire 621, ensuring that the wire 621 will not move or fall off at the outlet 6121, thereby improving the safety and stability of the entire electrical system.

[0125] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 20 As shown, guide ramps 6123 are provided at both ends of the opening 6122. From the bottom wall of the motor slot 611 to the open end of the motor slot 611, the two guide ramps 6123 are inclined in a direction away from each other. It can be understood that since the width of the opening 6122 is smaller than the diameter of the motor wire 621, the two guide ramps 6123 allow the wire 621 to be more easily inserted into the outlet 6121 from the opening 6122 along the guide ramps 6123, reducing assembly difficulty and improving installation efficiency. At the same time, the guide ramps 6123 guide the wire 621 smoothly into the opening 6122, reducing resistance and friction during installation, further improving installation efficiency.

[0126] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 14-18 As shown, there are multiple motors spaced apart, multiple wire grooves 6124 corresponding to multiple motors, and multiple wire outlets 6121 corresponding to multiple motors.

[0127] Therefore, this arrangement allows the wires 621 of each motor to be led out of the drive box 60 from the corresponding outlet 6121 through the corresponding wire groove 6124. The acute angle between the extension direction of each wire groove 6124 and the axial direction of the corresponding outlet 6121 can balance the pulling force, thereby effectively preventing the motor terminals from loosening due to tension, resulting in poor contact, reducing the failure rate, and improving reliability.

[0128] Meanwhile, the wires 621 of each motor are led out of the drive box 60 through the corresponding wire grooves 6124 and the corresponding outlets 6121, so that the wires 621 of each motor have a predetermined path for wiring, avoiding the messy crossing of multiple wires 621 and the mutual interference between wires 621, improving the neatness of the wiring and the overall reliability.

[0129] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 14-18 As shown, multiple motors are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the box body 61 (as shown in direction a), multiple cable outlets 6121 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the box body 61, and multiple cable grooves 6124 are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the box body 61 (as shown in direction b).

[0130] Therefore, by arranging multiple outlets 6121 at intervals along the length of the box body 61, the wires 621 of multiple motors are led out from the same side, making electrical management of the multiple wires 621 more convenient and reducing safety hazards caused by messy wires 621. At the same time, by arranging multiple motors at intervals along the length of the box body 61, multiple outlets 6121 at intervals along the length of the box body 61, and multiple wire channels 6124 at intervals along the width of the box body 61, the arrangement of multiple motors and multiple wires 621 within the box body 61 is more neat and orderly, and the layout of multiple motors and multiple wires 621 within the motor channel 611 is more reasonable, effectively avoiding messy crossing of wires 621 and improving reliability and aesthetics.

[0131] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 14-18 As shown, multiple wire guide channels 6124 are arranged in parallel. This arrangement ensures that the wiring method of the wires 621 is identical in each wire guide channel 6124, allowing assembly personnel to quickly familiarize themselves with and master the wiring process, and more easily repeat the same wiring actions without frequent changes in operating procedures, thus improving assembly efficiency. Simultaneously, the parallel wire guide channels 6124 provide the wires 621 with a uniform wiring environment and standard, ensuring the wiring quality and consistency of each wire 621, effectively reducing wiring steps and assembly error rates, avoiding problems such as wire damage or layout confusion caused by improper operation, and facilitating inspection and maintenance by maintenance personnel.

[0132] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 17 As shown, the bottom wall of the motor slot 611 has a first baffle 613 and a second baffle 614. The first baffle 613 and the second baffle 614 are spaced apart to form a wire passage slot 6124. The first baffle 613 of one wire passage slot 6124 and the second baffle 614 of the other wire passage slot 6124 are connected by a connecting rib 615.

[0133] Therefore, this arrangement effectively enhances the structural strength of the connected first retaining rib 613 and second retaining rib 614, enabling them to support each other and form a stable structural frame. This further improves the overall structural stability and prevents deformation or damage caused by external forces. Simultaneously, the connecting rib 615 connecting the first retaining rib 613 and second retaining rib 614 provides a guiding function for the wire 621, further guiding it to be routed in a predetermined direction. This avoids the chaotic crossing of multiple wires 621 and mutual interference between them, improving the neatness of the wiring and overall reliability.

[0134] In some embodiments, such as Figures 14-18 As shown, there are two motors spaced apart and arranged at intervals along the length of the box body 61. There are two wire passage slots 6124 corresponding to the multiple motors and arranged at intervals along the width of the box body 61. There are two wire outlets 6121 corresponding to the multiple motors and arranged at intervals along the length of the box body 61. The terminals of the two motors are located on the side away from each other. The two ends along the length of the box body 61 are respectively end A and end B. The wire outlet 6121 through which the wire 621 of the motor at the first end passes is located on the side of the other wire outlet 6121 closer to end A. The wire passage slot 6124 where the wire 621 of the motor at the first end is located is located on the side of the other wire passage slot 6124 closer to the wire outlet 6121. Therefore, this setting makes the wiring of the two motor wires 621 in the wire trough 6124 more rational, making the arrangement of the two wires 621 in the box body 61 more neat and orderly, and making the layout of the two motors and two wires 621 in the motor slot 611 more reasonable, improving reliability and aesthetics.

[0135] Furthermore, a wire passage groove 6124 is formed between the first baffle 613 and the second baffle 614. One end of the first baffle 613 in the length direction of the wire passage groove 6124, where the motor wire 621 is located at the first end, is connected to the side wall with the wire outlet 6121, and the other end is spaced apart from the side wall with the wire outlet 6121. It can be understood that since the angle between the extension direction of the wire passage groove 6124 formed between the first baffle 613 and the second baffle 614 and the axial direction of the wire outlet 6121 is an acute angle, this arrangement of the first baffle 613 makes it easier for the wire 621 to bend at the acute angle position, reducing the difficulty of wiring, effectively avoiding wear on the wire 621, and improving overall reliability.

[0136] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 14-18 As shown, there are two wiring structures 612, located on both sides of the box body 61 in the width direction. This arrangement allows the motor wires 621 to be led out of the box from either side of the box body 61 in the width direction, enabling the drive box 60 to be used in various application scenarios and improving its versatility and flexibility.

[0137] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 14-18 As shown, the two wiring structures 612 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the box body 61. This arrangement prevents the wiring terminals from being pulled, while simultaneously simplifying the structure of the box body 61, reducing unnecessary complexity and design difficulty, facilitating mass production and assembly, improving production efficiency, and reducing costs. Furthermore, since the two wiring structures 612 are symmetrically arranged, their functions and performance are equal, allowing for interchangeable use, further increasing the versatility and flexibility of the drive box 60.

[0138] In some embodiments of the present invention, the width of the wire passage 6124 is 3mm-8mm. It is understood that the minimum width of the wire passage 6124 needs to be sufficiently large to ensure that the wire 621 can pass smoothly through the wire passage 6124, avoiding excessive compression or jamming of the wire 621, which could prevent the wire 621 from passing through or damage it. Simultaneously, if the width of the wire passage 6124 is too large, the wire 621 may wobble or become unstable within the wire passage 6124, making it impossible to guarantee that the wire 621 will generate a large component of the reverse and tensile forces at the acute angle to balance the tensile force. Therefore, by limiting the width of the wire passage 6124 to 3mm-8mm, while ensuring that the wire 621 can pass smoothly through the wire passage 6124, when the wire 621 receives a tensile force, a large component of the reverse and tensile forces will be generated at the acute angle to balance the tensile force. It should be noted that the width of the wire passage 6124 can be 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, or 8mm.

[0139] Furthermore, the width of the wire guide 6124 is the same as the diameter of the wire 621, or the width of the wire guide 6124 is within 1 mm greater than the diameter of the wire 621. This arrangement further ensures that the wire 621 can smoothly pass through the wire guide 6124, while also creating a large counterforce at the acute angle when the wire 621 is subjected to tensile force, balancing the tensile force with the component of the tensile force. For example, the width of the wire guide 6124 is 4 mm, and the diameter of the motor wire 621 is 3 mm-4 mm.

[0140] It should be noted that when the first baffle 613 and the second baffle 614 form a through groove 6124, the distance between the first baffle 613 and the second baffle 614 is 3mm-8mm.

[0141] In some embodiments of the present invention, the depth of the wire passage 6124 is 4mm-15mm. It is understood that the minimum depth of the wire passage 6124 needs to be sufficiently large to ensure that the wire 621 can pass through the wire passage 6124 smoothly and without obstruction, avoiding compression of the wire 621 due to insufficient depth, which could lead to deformation, damage, or decreased transmission performance. At the same time, an excessively deep wire passage 6124 would result in unnecessary space waste, increasing the volume and cost of the box body 61. Therefore, by limiting the depth of the wire passage 6124 to 4mm-15mm, the cost of the drive box 60 is reduced while ensuring that the wire 621 can pass through the wire passage 6124 smoothly and without obstruction. It should be noted that the depth of the wire passage 6124 can be 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 9mm, 10mm, 11mm, 12mm, 13mm, 14mm, or 15mm.

[0142] It should be noted that when the first baffle 613 and the second baffle 614 form a through groove 6124, the first baffle 613 and the second baffle 614 are 4mm-15mm away from the bottom wall of the motor groove 611 in the direction of the depth of the motor groove 611.

[0143] The air outlet structure 1001 of an embodiment of the present invention is described below.

[0144] like Figures 1-4 and Figures 28-30As shown, the air outlet structure 1001 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an air outlet frame assembly 100, an air guide grille 200, a switch door 300, and a drive assembly 400. The air outlet frame assembly 100 has an air outlet duct 201 and an air outlet 202 communicating with the air outlet duct 201. The air outlet 202 extends along the length direction of the air outlet frame assembly 100. The air guide grille 200 is rotatably disposed at the air outlet 202, and the rotation axis of the air guide grille 200 extends along the length direction of the air outlet 202. The switch door 300 is rotatably disposed at the air outlet 202, and the rotation axis of the switch door 300 extends along the length direction of the air outlet 202. The air guide grille 200 and the switch door 300 rotate coaxially. A first drive member 410 is used to drive the switch door 300 to rotate, a second drive member 420 is used to drive the air guide grille 200 to rotate, and a connecting plate 301 is connected to the air guide grille 200.

[0145] Therefore, by rotating the door 300 and the air guide grille 200 coaxially, space is effectively utilized, reducing the size of the air outlet structure 1001 and the air conditioner 1000 using the air outlet structure 1001. Simultaneously, by radially spacing the connecting plate 301 and the output shaft of the first drive member 410, the connection positions of the first drive member 410 and the door 300, and the second drive member 420 and the air guide grille 200 are separated, effectively preventing interference between the rotation of the door 300 and the air guide grille 200, thus ensuring the stability and reliability of the air outlet structure 1001.

[0146] Meanwhile, the air outlet structure 1001 can be installed on the air conditioner 1000 to realize the air supply function of the air conditioner 1000. The air conditioner 1000 can be a floor-standing or cabinet-type air conditioner 1000. The air outlet frame has an air outlet duct 201 and an air outlet 202 communicating with the air outlet duct 201. The air outlet 202 is along the length direction of the air outlet frame (e.g., ...). Figure 28 (As shown in the first direction). The air conditioner 1000 includes a housing 1005, with an air outlet frame connected to the housing 1005. The housing 1005 is cylindrical, forming the overall appearance of the air conditioner 1000. The housing 1005 has an air inlet 1006 communicating with the air outlet duct 201, allowing airflow to enter the air conditioner 1000 through the air inlet 1006 for heat exchange, and then be blown out of the air conditioner 1000 through the air outlet duct 201 and the air outlet 202, thereby realizing the air supply function of the air conditioner 1000. The air outlet frame and the housing 1005 are vertically arranged, meaning the air outlet 202 extends vertically, thereby expanding the vertical air supply range of the air conditioner 1000 and ensuring the air supply effect of the air conditioner 1000.

[0147] Specifically, when the air conditioner 1000 is supplying air, the switch door 300 can be rotated to open the air outlet 202 to ensure airflow and reduce air volume loss. The switch door 300 also guides the airflow direction to expand the air supply angle and air outlet range of the air outlet structure 1001. Furthermore, the air guide grille 200 can be rotated to different angles to allow the air outlet structure 1001 to supply air at different angles in the width direction of the air outlet 202. When the air conditioner 1000 is turned off, the switch door 300 can be rotated to close the air outlet 202, which can prevent dust and ensure the cleanliness of the air conditioner 1000. The air guide grille 200 is located inside the switch door 300, which can ensure the aesthetic appearance of the air conditioner 1000.

[0148] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the air outlet structure 1001 is provided with a drive assembly 400, which rotates coaxially with the door 300 and the air guide grille 200. This achieves multi-functional and multi-angle air delivery while effectively utilizing space and reducing the volume of the air outlet structure 1001 and the air conditioner 1000 using it. Simultaneously, by radially spacing the connecting plate 301 and the output shaft of the first drive member 410, the connection positions of the first drive member 410 and the door 300, and the second drive member 420 and the air guide grille 200 are separated, effectively preventing interference between the rotation of the door 300 and the air guide grille 200, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the air outlet structure 1001.

[0149] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 21-25 As shown, one end of the air outlet frame 20 has a mounting groove 2010 along its length. The mounting groove 2010 and the air outlet 202 are arranged along the length of the air outlet frame 20. The side of the mounting groove 2010 facing away from the air outlet 202 is open. The drive assembly 400 includes a drive box 60. It is understood that the drive box 60 is used to house the motor, thereby protecting and supporting the motor, effectively preventing external impurities from entering the motor and affecting its performance, and effectively preventing the motor from shifting due to vibration or external forces during operation. Simultaneously, the mounting groove 2010 provides installation space for the drive assembly 400 and provides a certain degree of protection and support for the assembly.

[0150] The drive box 60 is located within the assembly slot 2010 and has a first assembly part 616 and a second assembly part 617. The first assembly part 616 is snap-fitted to the side wall of the assembly slot 2010, and the second assembly part 617 is connected to the inner bottom wall of the assembly slot 2010 by fasteners. It can be understood that pre-positioning is achieved by the snap-fit ​​connection of the first assembly part 616 to the side wall of the assembly slot 2010, and then the connection of the second assembly part 617 to the inner bottom wall of the assembly slot 2010 by fasteners connects the drive box 60 to the air outlet frame 20, thereby fixing the drive assembly 400 onto the air outlet frame 20.

[0151] Therefore, the snap-fit ​​connection between the first assembly part 616 and the side wall of the assembly groove 2010 plays a pre-positioning role during the initial assembly of the drive box 60, ensuring the correct position of the drive box 60 within the assembly groove 2010. This helps reduce assembly errors, improves the accuracy and consistency of the overall assembly, and ensures the overall quality and performance of the air outlet structure 1001. Furthermore, by combining snap-fit ​​connections and fastener connections, this application only requires a fastener connection between the second assembly part 617 and the inner bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010 to ensure a reliable connection between the drive box 60 and the air outlet frame 20, simplifying the assembly process and improving assembly efficiency.

[0152] Furthermore, since the drive assembly 400 is used to drive the air guide assembly at the air outlet 202 to rotate, it is usually located near the outer contour of the air outlet frame 20. Traditional fastener connection methods make it very difficult to drive screws close to the outer contour, and even make effective electric screwdriver operation impossible. Therefore, this application replaces the step of using fasteners in difficult-to-operate locations by using the snap-fit ​​connection between the first assembly part 616 and the side wall of the assembly groove 2010, effectively reducing assembly difficulty, simplifying the assembly process, and effectively reducing the risk of assembly errors and damage caused by operational difficulties.

[0153] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 , Figure 9 and Figure 25 As shown, the first assembly part 616 is a snap-fit, which is located on the outer side wall of the drive box 60. The side wall of the air outlet frame 20 has a snap-fit ​​hole 2011, and the snap-fit ​​is engaged in the snap-fit ​​hole 2011. Thus, by engaging the snap-fit ​​hole 2011, the first assembly part 616 is engaged with the side wall of the assembly groove 2010. At the same time, by having the snap-fit ​​located on the outer side wall of the drive box 60, it is easy for the snap-fit ​​to engage in the snap-fit ​​hole 2011 on the side wall of the air outlet frame 20, making the structure of the air outlet structure 1001 more reasonable and reliable.

[0154] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 5-8 and Figure 10 As shown, a cantilever 2012 is provided inside the snap-fit ​​hole 2011. One end of the cantilever 2012 in the length direction is connected to the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​hole 2011 away from the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010, and the other end is spaced apart from the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​hole 2011 near the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010. Both ends of the cantilever 2012 in the width direction are spaced apart from the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​hole 2011. The buckle is snapped between the cantilever 2012 and the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​hole 2011 near the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010.

[0155] Thus, as the drive box 60 moves from the open end of the assembly groove 2010 toward the inner bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010, the latch pushes the cantilever 2012 away from the drive box 60 and locks it between the cantilever 2012 and the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​hole 2011 near the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010, thereby realizing the snap-fit ​​connection between the first assembly part 616 and the side wall of the assembly groove 2010.

[0156] Furthermore, the distance between one end of the cantilever 2012 in the length direction and the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​hole 2011 near the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010 is greater than the distance between both ends of the cantilever 2012 in the width direction and the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​hole 2011. Thus, while ensuring that the cantilever 2012 is movable, the buckle is better engaged between the cantilever 2012 and the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​hole 2011 near the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010, further ensuring the reliability of the snap-fit ​​connection.

[0157] It should be noted that the cantilever 2012 can be made by carving out a three-sided gap on the side wall of the air outlet frame 20 so that one end of the cantilever 2012 in the length direction is connected to the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​hole 2011 away from the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010, and the other end is separated from the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​hole 2011 near the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010. The two ends of the cantilever 2012 in the width direction are separated from the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​hole 2011.

[0158] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 9 and Figure 25 As shown, the buckle includes a buckle body 6161 and a buckle reinforcing rib 6162. The buckle body 6161 is connected to the outer wall of the drive box 60. The buckle reinforcing rib 6162 is located on the side of the buckle body 6161 near the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010 and is connected to the buckle body 6161 and the outer wall of the drive box 60. In the direction from the drive box 60 to the snap hole 2011, the buckle reinforcing rib 6162 is inclined in a direction away from the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010.

[0159] Thus, by engaging the snap-fit ​​body 6161 and the snap-fit ​​reinforcing rib 6162 within the snap-fit ​​hole 2011, the first assembly part 616 is snap-fitted to the side wall of the assembly groove 2010. Simultaneously, in the direction from the drive box 60 to the snap-fit ​​hole 2011, the snap-fit ​​reinforcing rib 6162 is inclined away from the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010, allowing it to guide and more securely engage within the snap-fit ​​hole 2011, thereby improving the snap-fit ​​connection strength. Furthermore, the snap-fit ​​reinforcing rib 6162 effectively strengthens the overall structure of the snap-fit, ensuring the reliability of the snap-fit ​​connection between the drive box 60 and the air outlet frame 20.

[0160] Furthermore, the buckle reinforcing ribs 6162 are multiple spaced apart. Thus, the multiple buckle reinforcing ribs 6162 improve the overall structural strength of the buckle while also increasing the connection strength between the drive box 60 and the air outlet frame 20.

[0161] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 , Figure 9 , Figure 23 and Figure 24 As shown, the second assembly part 617 is formed as an assembly hole on the wall surface of the drive box 60 facing the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010. One end of the air outlet frame 20 facing the drive box 60 has a fixing post 2013 opposite to the assembly hole. Fasteners pass through the assembly hole and the fixing post 2013. Thus, by fastening the fasteners through the assembly hole and the fixing post 2013, the second assembly part 617 is connected to the inner bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010, thereby fixing the drive box 60 to the air outlet frame 20.

[0162] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 4 , Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown, the drive box 60 also has a positioning protrusion 618, which is located on the side of the drive box 60 facing the bottom wall of the assembly slot 2010 and extends along the circumferential direction of the assembly hole. Thus, the positioning protrusion 618 provides a positioning reference during the assembly process of the drive box 60, effectively reducing errors and uncertainties in the assembly process and improving assembly efficiency and accuracy.

[0163] Furthermore, the end of the fixing post 2013 facing the assembly box extends into the positioning protrusion ring 618 and is spaced apart from the positioning protrusion ring 618. This makes it easier for assembly personnel to identify the correct alignment position of the assembly hole and the fixing post 2013, thereby further improving assembly efficiency and accuracy.

[0164] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 9 As shown, the assembly hole is located near the outer edge of the drive box 60, and the positioning protrusion 618 is an open ring with its opening facing the center of the drive box 60. Therefore, by setting the positioning protrusion 618 to be an open ring with its opening facing the center of the drive box 60, the positioning protrusion 618 can avoid structures located at the center of the drive box 60, making the layout of the drive box 60 more reasonable and reducing the volume of the assembly box.

[0165] For example, the drive box 60 includes a box body 61 and a top cover 64. The top cover 64 is located on the side of the box body 61 near the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010 and is connected to the box body 61. The first assembly part 616 and the second assembly part 617 are located on the box body 61. The top cover 64 can be effectively avoided through the opening of the positioning protrusion ring 618.

[0166] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 21-25 As shown, the second assembly part 617 and the first assembly part 616 are located on opposite sides of the drive box 60. It is understandable that, since the drive assembly 400 is used to drive the air guide assembly at the air outlet 202 to rotate, it is typically located near the outer contour of the air outlet frame 20. Traditional fastener connections make it very difficult to drive screws close to the outer contour, and even make effective electric screwdriver operation impossible. Therefore, by positioning the second assembly part 617 and the first assembly part 616 on opposite sides of the drive box 60, the first assembly part 616 is snapped into the side wall of the assembly groove 2010, replacing the step of using fasteners close to the outer contour. This effectively reduces assembly difficulty, simplifies the assembly process, and effectively reduces the risk of assembly errors and damage caused by operational difficulties.

[0167] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 21 and Figure 9 As shown, there are two drive components 400, which are located on the same side of the two air outlets 202 along the length of the air outlet frame 20. There are two first assembly parts 616 and two second assembly parts 617. The two first assembly parts 616 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the drive box 60, and the two second assembly parts 617 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the drive box 60. The first assembly parts 616 and the second assembly parts 617 connected to the air outlet frame 20 are located on opposite sides of the drive box 60.

[0168] Understandably, this arrangement allows the two first assembly parts 616 of the two drive components 400, which are far apart from each other, to be snapped into the side wall of the air outlet frame 20, while the two second assembly parts 617 of the two drive components 400, which are close to each other, are connected to the bottom wall of the air outlet frame 20 by fasteners. This allows the first assembly parts 616 to be snapped into the side wall of the assembly groove 2010, replacing the step of using fasteners at a position close to the outer contour. This effectively reduces the assembly difficulty, simplifies the assembly process, and effectively reduces the risk of assembly errors and damage caused by operational difficulties.

[0169] Meanwhile, by symmetrically arranging the two first assembly parts 616 along the central axis of the drive box 60, the two first assembly parts 616 have equal functions and performance, and can be used interchangeably, further increasing the versatility and flexibility of the drive box 60. Furthermore, by symmetrically arranging the two second assembly parts as shown in the figure along the central axis of the drive box 60, the two second assembly parts as shown in the figure have equal functions and performance, and can be used interchangeably, further increasing the versatility and flexibility of the drive box 60.

[0170] Furthermore, the second assembly part 617 is formed as an assembly hole on the wall surface of the drive box 60 facing the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010. The end of the air outlet frame 20 facing the drive box 60 has a fixing post 2013 that is disposed opposite to the assembly hole. Fasteners are inserted into the assembly hole and the fixing post 2013. The fixing post 2013 is in two sets corresponding to the two assembly components. Each set of fixing posts 2013 consists of two fixing posts corresponding to the two assembly holes. The two fixing posts 2013 in the two sets that are close to each other are respectively connected to the two close assembly holes of the corresponding assembly components by fasteners.

[0171] The drive box 60 also has multiple positioning protrusions 618 corresponding one-to-one with the assembly holes. The positioning protrusions 618 are located on the side of the drive box 60 facing the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010 and extend circumferentially along the corresponding assembly holes. The assembly holes are near the outer edge of the drive box 60. The positioning protrusions 618 are open rings with their openings facing the center of the drive box 60. Two of the two sets of fixing posts 2013, the two posts 2013 furthest from each other, have post notches opposite to the openings of the positioning protrusions 618. Thus, during the assembly process of the drive box 60, the two fixing posts 2013 furthest from each other with post notches, engaging with the openings of the positioning protrusions 618, provide a positioning reference. This allows the assembler to connect the two fixing posts 2013 furthest from each other to the two adjacent assembly holes of the corresponding assembly components using fasteners, effectively reducing errors and uncertainties during assembly and improving assembly efficiency and accuracy.

[0172] In some embodiments of the present invention, the air outlet 202 is located along the width direction of the air outlet frame 20 (e.g., Figure 1 Two air outlets 202 are spaced apart (as shown in the second direction). Therefore, the air outlet structure 1001 can increase the air delivery angle and air delivery range in the width direction of the air outlet frame 20 by using two air outlets 202, so that the air outlet structure 1001 can further meet different user needs. At the same time, both air outlets 202 have a drive assembly 400 on the same side along the length direction of the air outlet frame 20, so that the two drive assemblies 400 drive the air guide assembly in the corresponding air outlet 202 to rotate, thereby changing the airflow direction.

[0173] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 9 As shown, the drive box 60 has a second drive hole 6100 on the wall facing the bottom wall of the assembly slot 2010, from which the output shaft of the motor extends. The line connecting the first assembly part 616 and the second assembly part 617 passes through the center point of the second drive hole 6100. This arrangement ensures that the drive box 60 is subjected to uniform force after being connected to the air outlet frame 20, making the output shaft of the motor extending from the second drive hole 6100 drive the air guide assembly more stably and powerfully, thus improving overall reliability.

[0174] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 , Figure 8 and Figure 26 As shown, one of the walls of the drive box 60 facing the bottom wall of the assembly slot 2010 and the wall of the air outlet frame 20 facing the drive box 60 has a positioning rib 641, and the other has a positioning notch 2014 that mates with the outer peripheral wall of the positioning rib 641. Thus, through the cooperation of the positioning rib 641 and the positioning notch 2014, a positioning reference is provided during the assembly process of the drive box 60, effectively reducing errors and uncertainties in the assembly process and improving assembly efficiency and accuracy.

[0175] Furthermore, the drive box 60 includes a box body 61 and an upper cover 64. The upper cover 64 is located on the side of the box body 61 near the bottom wall of the assembly groove 2010 and is connected to the box body 61. The first assembly part 616 and the second assembly part 617 are located on the box body 61, and the positioning rib 641 is located on the upper cover 64.

[0176] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 26 As shown, the positioning notch 2014 is a non-circular hole. Therefore, the positioning notch 2014 provides more precise positioning guidance for the non-circular hole design, further reducing positioning errors and improving the manufacturing precision and consistency of the air outlet structure 1001.

[0177] The air conditioner 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below.

[0178] like Figures 28-30 and Figures 35-37 As shown, an air conditioner 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an air outlet structure 1001, which can be disposed on the air conditioner 1000 to realize the air supply function of the air conditioner 1000. The air conditioner 1000 can be a floor-standing or cabinet-type air conditioner 1000. The air outlet frame assembly 100 has an air outlet duct 201 and an air outlet 202 communicating with the air outlet duct 201. The air outlet 202 extends along the length direction of the air outlet frame assembly 100. The air conditioner 1000 includes a housing 1005, and the air outlet frame assembly 100 is connected to the housing 1005. The housing 1005 is cylindrical to form the overall appearance of the air conditioner 1000. The housing 1005 is provided with an air inlet 1006 that communicates with the air outlet duct 201, allowing airflow to enter the air conditioner 1000 through the air inlet 1006 for heat exchange, and then be blown out of the air conditioner 1000 through the air outlet 202 after passing through the air outlet duct 201, thereby realizing the air supply function of the air conditioner 1000. The air outlet frame assembly 100 and the housing 1005 are vertically arranged, that is, the air outlet 202 is along the vertical direction (see attached diagram). Figure 35 Extending in the first direction shown, the air outlet range of the air conditioner 1000 in the vertical direction can be expanded, thereby ensuring the air supply effect of the air conditioner 1000.

[0179] Among them, such as Figures 28-30 and Figures 35-37 As shown, the air guide grille 200 is detachably and rotatably mounted at the air outlet 202. The rotation axis of the air guide grille 200 extends along the length of the air outlet 202, thereby allowing the air guide grille 200 to rotate about the rotation axis extending along the length of the air outlet 202. When airflow flows into the air outlet duct 201 and passes through the air guide grille 200, the air guide grille 200 can rotate in the width direction of the air outlet 202 (see attached diagram). Figure 37 By guiding the airflow in the first direction (as shown), and changing the airflow direction, the air conditioner 1000 can deliver air at different angles along the width of the air outlet 202 to meet the user's air supply needs. It can also increase the air supply angle and range along the width of the air outlet 202, achieving wide-angle air supply from the air outlet structure 1001, thereby improving the air supply effect of the air outlet structure 1001 and enhancing user comfort and experience.

[0180] like Figures 28-30 and Figures 35-37 As shown, the switch door 300 is detachably and rotatably located at the air outlet 202. The rotation axis of the switch door 300 extends along the length of the air outlet 202, so the switch door 300 can rotate around the rotation axis extending in the vertical direction. When the air conditioner 1000 is blowing air, the switch door 300 can rotate to the position of opening the air outlet 202 to ensure airflow and reduce air volume loss. When the air conditioner 1000 is turned off, the switch door 300 can rotate to the position of closing the air outlet 202, which can play a dust prevention role to ensure the cleanliness of the inside of the air conditioner 1000.

[0181] like Figures 28-30 and Figures 35-37 As shown, the air guide grille 200 and the switch door 300 rotate coaxially. That is, the rotation axis of the switch door 300 coincides with the rotation axis of the air guide grille 200. When the switch door 300 closes the air outlet 202, the air guide grille 200 is located inside the switch door 300. Therefore, the rotation trajectory of the switch door 300 and the air guide grille 200 can always remain concentric circles with different radii. Thus, the switch door 300 and the air guide grille 200 can avoid mutual interference during rotation. This facilitates the normal rotation of the switch door 300 and the air guide grille, preventing accidental collisions when the switch door 300 and the air guide grille 200 are driven separately. This ensures the stability and reliability of the drive assembly 400 and the air outlet structure 1001, reduces the risk of damage to the air outlet structure 1001, and ultimately helps extend the service life of the air outlet structure 1001.

[0182] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner 1000 is provided with an air outlet structure 1001. The door 300 and the air guide grille 200 rotate coaxially, achieving multi-functional and multi-angle air delivery while effectively utilizing space and reducing the size of the air conditioner 1000. Simultaneously, by radially spacing the connecting plate 301 and the output shaft of the first drive member 410, the connection positions of the first drive member 410 and the door 300, and the connection positions of the second drive member 420 and the air guide grille 200 are separated, effectively preventing interference between the rotation of the door 300 and the air guide grille 200, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the air conditioner 1000.
