AI Technical Summary
Existing vehicle defrost grilles suffer from condensation or water droplet formation on the inner side of the windshield, which can lead to moisture accumulation inside the grille if not promptly removed.
A vehicle defrost grille design featuring a drainage channel and water storage cavity, with guide vanes and a snap-fit structure, directs condensation to the storage cavity where it can be dried by the outlet airflow, preventing interior moisture.
Effectively removes condensation and water droplets from the windshield by guiding them into a storage cavity for drying, thereby preventing moisture ingress into the grille.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile interior accessories, in particular to a vehicle defrosting grille. Background Art
[0002] The vehicle defrost grille is a key component used for defrosting and defogging the front windshield. Its design and function are intended to quickly and effectively remove frost and fog on the windshield, ensure the driver's clear field of vision, and improve driving safety. However, when using the existing vehicle defrost grille for defrosting, when the hot air comes into contact with the cold windshield, condensation or condensed water droplets often form on the inside of the glass. If the falling water droplets are not removed in time, they will flow into the inside of the grille and cause moisture in the car. Utility Model Content
[0003] The utility model aims to provide a defrost grille for a vehicle to solve the problem in the prior art that when hot air contacts a cold windshield, condensation or water droplets are often generated on the inner side of the glass. If the fallen water droplets are not removed in time, they will flow into the inside of the grille and cause moisture in the vehicle.
[0004] A vehicle defrost grille includes a grille body, an air inlet is provided at the bottom of the grille body, an air outlet is provided at the top of the grille body, a plurality of guide vanes are provided in the middle of the grille body, a frame is provided at the side end of the grille body extending outward in a circumferential direction, a snap-on structural member is provided at the side end of the frame, a drainage channel is provided on the side of the frame close to the front windshield, at least one water storage cavity is provided on the outside of the drainage channel, and the exhaust path of the air outlet covers the drainage channel.
[0005] Preferably, the guide vanes are symmetrically arranged in the middle of the grille body, and the middle parts of the guide vanes are fixedly connected with reinforcing ribs.
[0006] Preferably, four groups of the clamping structures are arranged along the length direction of the grille body.
[0007] Preferably, the snap-fitting structure comprises a buckle and a slot, and the buckle and the slot are arranged on two sides of the frame opposite to each other.
[0008] Preferably, the inlet of the water storage chamber is connected to the drainage channel.
[0009] Preferably, a mounting hole is provided at a side end of the water storage chamber.
[0010] The advantage of the utility model is that by arranging a drainage channel on the frame at the side end of the grille body, and cooperating with at least one water storage cavity on the outside of the drainage channel, when the amount of frost on the inner side of the vehicle window glass is large, condensation or condensed water droplets will be generated, but the water droplets will slide onto the drainage channel until they flow into the water storage cavity. Since the exhaust path of the air outlet covers the drainage channel, the fallen water droplets temporarily stored in the drainage channel and the water storage cavity can be quickly dried, thereby achieving the purpose of timely removing the fallen water droplets and preventing water from flowing into the inside of the grille and causing moisture in the vehicle.

[0015] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.
[0016] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a vehicle defrost grille includes a grille body 1, wherein an air inlet 2 is provided at the bottom of the grille body 1, an air outlet 3 is provided at the top of the grille body 1, a plurality of guide vanes 4 are provided in the middle of the grille body 1, a frame 5 is provided at the side end of the grille body 1 extending outward in a circumferential direction, a snap-on structure 6 is provided at the side end of the frame 5, a drainage channel 7 is provided on the side of the frame 5 close to the front windshield, at least one water storage cavity 8 is provided on the outer side of the drainage channel 7, and the exhaust path of the air outlet 3 covers the drainage channel 7.
[0017] In this embodiment, a plurality of guide vanes 4 are symmetrically arranged in the middle of the grille body 1 , and a reinforcing rib 9 is fixedly connected to the middle of a plurality of guide vanes 4 .
[0018] In this embodiment, four groups of the clamping structures 6 are arranged along the length direction of the grille body 1 .
[0019] In this embodiment, the snap-fit structure 6 includes a snap 10 and a snap slot 11 , and the snap 10 and the snap slot 11 are disposed on two sides of the frame 5 opposite to each other.
[0020] In this embodiment, the inlet of the water storage chamber 8 is connected to the drainage channel 7 , and a mounting hole 12 is opened at the side end of the water storage chamber 8 .
[0021] Working process and principle: The utility model installs the grille body 1 on the car dashboard through the buckle 10 and the slot 11 in the snap-fit structure 6. During the defrosting process, hot air enters from one side of the air inlet 2 and is blown out from the air outlet 3 through the guidance of the guide plate 4. The hot air is in full contact with the cold windshield to achieve rapid defrosting. When the amount of frost on the inner side of the car window glass is large, condensation or condensed water droplets will occur, but the water droplets will slide onto the drainage channel 7 until they flow into the water storage chamber 8. Since the exhaust path of the air outlet 3 covers the drainage channel 7, the water droplets temporarily stored in the drainage channel 7 and the water storage chamber 8 can be quickly dried.
[0022] Based on the above, the utility model sets a drainage channel 7 on the frame 5 at the side end of the grille body 1, and cooperates with at least one water storage chamber 8 on the outside of the drainage channel 7. When the amount of frost on the inner side of the vehicle window glass is large, condensation or condensed water droplets will be generated, but the water droplets will slide onto the drainage channel 7 until they flow into the water storage chamber 8. Since the exhaust path of the air outlet 3 covers the drainage channel 7, the fallen water droplets temporarily stored in the drainage channel 7 and the water storage chamber 8 can be quickly dried, thereby achieving the purpose of timely removing the fallen water droplets and preventing water from flowing into the inside of the grille and causing moisture in the vehicle.
[0023] It is known from common technical knowledge that the present invention can be implemented by other embodiments that do not deviate from its spirit or essential features. Therefore, the embodiments disclosed above are only illustrative in all respects and are not exclusive. All changes within the scope of the present invention or within the scope equivalent to the present invention are included in the present invention.
