[0002] As people's living standards improve, the demand for air conditioners is increasing, and the requirements for air conditioner performance and comfort are also getting higher and higher. In the traditional wall-mounted split air outlet design, the air guide plate is usually opened upward to achieve a better cold air sinking effect in cooling mode.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0045] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0046] In the related art, in the heating mode, since the hot air is light, it is easy to stay in the upper part of the room, making the temperature in the lower part of the room lower and making the human body feel uncomfortable. For this reason, some air conditioners add a small air guide plate or use a motion mechanism to change the opening mode of the air guide plate to achieve the effect of pressing the hot air downward, but it requires adding a motor drive, which makes the air conditioner structure complicated and also increases the cost.
[0047] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 16 The wind deflector assembly 1 according to an embodiment of the utility model is described.
[0048] like Figure 1-Figure 7As shown, according to the utility model, the air deflector assembly 1 includes a shell 11, an air deflector 12, a transmission member 13 and a driving member 14. An air outlet is formed on the shell 11, and the air deflector 12 is flippably arranged at the air outlet. The air deflector 12 is formed with a first rotating portion 121 and a second rotating portion 122 spaced apart in the height direction; the transmission member 13 is movably arranged on the shell 11 and a first matching portion 131 and a second matching portion 132 are respectively formed at both ends of the transmission member 13, the first matching portion 131 is suitable for matching with the first rotating portion 121, and the second matching portion 132 is suitable for matching with the second rotating portion 122; the driving member 14 is arranged on the shell 11 and is suitable for driving the transmission member 13 to move, driving the first matching portion 131 to match with the first rotating portion 121 to rotate the air deflector 12 toward the first direction; or driving the second matching portion 132 to match with the second rotating portion 122 to rotate the air deflector 12 toward the second direction.
[0049] The wind deflector assembly 1 of the present application is provided with a wind deflector 12 which can be flipped at the air outlet. The wind deflector 12 can selectively close or open the air outlet by flipping, and the wind deflector 12 can guide the flow direction of the airflow when it is opened. By providing a transmission member 13, the transmission member 13 can move on the housing 11 to realize the flipping movement of the wind deflector 12. By providing a first rotating part 121 and a second rotating part 122 on the wind deflector 12, the first rotating part 121 and the second rotating part 122 are arranged at intervals in the height direction, and the first matching part 131 on the transmission member 13 can match with the first rotating part 121 on the wind deflector 12, so that the wind deflector 12 rotates toward the first direction to guide the airflow to one side in the height direction; or the second matching part 132 on the transmission member 13 can match with the second rotating part 122 on the wind deflector 12, so that the wind deflector 12 rotates toward the second direction to guide the airflow to the other side in the height direction. For example, in the cooling mode, the transmission member 13 moves toward the first matching portion 131, driving the first matching portion 131 to match with the first rotating portion 121, so that the air guide plate 12 moves toward the first direction, so that the air guide plate 12 guides the airflow to one side in the height direction, and achieves the upward air supply effect in the cooling mode. In the heating mode, the transmission member 13 moves toward the second matching portion 132, driving the second matching portion 132 to match with the second rotating portion 122, so that the air guide plate 12 moves toward the second direction, so that the air guide plate 12 guides the airflow to the other side in the height direction, and achieves the downward air supply effect in the heating mode. By setting the driving member 14, the driving member 14 can drive the transmission member 13 to move in two different directions, so that the first matching portion 131 can be selectively matched with the first rotating portion 121 or the second matching portion 132 can be matched with the second rotating portion 122. Under the drive of the driving member 14, the air guide plate 12 can be flipped in the first direction or the second direction, without adding a motor drive, simplifying the structure and reducing costs. Specifically, one of the first direction and the second direction is a clockwise direction, and the other of the first direction and the second direction is a counterclockwise direction.
[0050] Therefore, in the air guide plate assembly 1 of the present application, under the drive of the driving member 14, the air guide plate 12 can flip in the first direction or the second direction, so that the hot air or cold air is distributed more evenly in the room, without adding a motor drive, simplifying the structure and reducing costs.
[0051] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 8-Figure 13As shown, the air deflector assembly 1 further includes a locking member 15, which is disposed between the transmission member 13 and the air deflector 12 and is suitable for limiting the first rotating portion 121 and / or the second rotating portion 122 from being separated from the transmission member 13. By arranging the locking member 15 between the transmission member 13 and the air deflector 12, the locking member 15 can limit the first rotating portion 121 and / or the second rotating portion 122, thereby limiting the first rotating portion 121 and / or the second rotating portion 122 from being separated from the transmission member 13, thereby improving reliability. Specifically, when the air guide plate 12 closes the air outlet, the locking member 15 limits the first rotating part 121 and the second rotating part 122 from being disengaged from the transmission member 13, so that the air guide plate 12 can reliably close the air outlet; when the air guide plate 12 flips over in the first direction, the locking member 15 limits the first rotating part 121 from being disengaged from the transmission member 13, so that the first rotating part 121 and the first matching part 131 can be reliably matched, and the second rotating part 122 can be disengaged from the transmission member 13, so that the air guide plate 12 can be freely flipped in the first direction; when the air guide plate 12 flips over in the second direction, the locking member 15 limits the second rotating part 122 from being disengaged from the transmission member 13, so that the second rotating part 122 and the second matching part 132 can be reliably matched, and the first rotating part 121 can be disengaged from the transmission member 13, so that the air guide plate 12 can be freely flipped in the second direction.
[0052] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 8-Figure 13As shown, the locking member 15 is movably arranged on the housing 11, and a first locking portion 151 and a second locking portion 152 are formed at both ends of the locking member 15. A first limiting cavity 151c is formed in the first locking portion 151, and a second limiting cavity 152c is formed in the second locking portion 152. The first limiting cavity 151c and the second limiting cavity 152c are open to each other; a protruding first rotating shaft 121a is formed on the first rotating portion 121, and the first rotating shaft 121a is received in the first rotating portion 121 when the first rotating portion 121 cooperates with the first matching portion 131.

By arranging the first locking part 151 and the second locking part 152 at both ends of the locking member 15, the first locking part 151 can limit the first rotating part 121 from being separated from the transmission member 13, and the second locking part 152 can limit the second rotating part 122 from being separated from the transmission member 13. By movably arranging the locking member 15 on the shell 11, the movement of the locking member 15 on the shell 11 can drive the first locking portion 151 to disengage from the first rotating portion 121, so that the air guide plate 12 can be freely flipped in the second direction; or the movement of the locking member 15 on the shell 11 can drive the second locking portion 152 to disengage from the second rotating portion 122, so that the air guide plate 12 can be freely flipped in the second direction.Specifically, a first limiting cavity 151c is formed in the first locking portion 151, and a protruding first rotating shaft 121a is formed on the first rotating portion 121. When the first rotating shaft 121a is received in the first limiting cavity 151c, the first locking portion 151 will limit the movement of the first rotating shaft 121a, thereby limiting the first rotating portion 121 from being separated from the transmission member 13. Similarly, a second limiting cavity 152c is formed in the second locking portion 152, and a protruding second rotating shaft 122a is formed on the second rotating portion 122. 2a is received in the second limiting cavity 152c, the second locking portion 152 will limit the movement of the second rotating shaft 122a, thereby limiting the second rotating portion 122 from being separated from the transmission member 13; the first limiting cavity 151c and the second limiting cavity 152c are open to each other, and when the air guide plate 12 closes the air outlet, the first rotating shaft 121a is received in the first limiting cavity 151c and the second rotating shaft 122a is received in the second limiting cavity 152c; if the air guide plate 12 needs to be turned over in the first direction, the locking member 15 will turn toward the second locking portion 15 2 direction, so that the first rotating shaft 121a is accommodated in the deeper part of the first limiting cavity 151c, and the second rotating shaft 122a is separated from the second limiting cavity 152c, so that when the air guide plate 12 is flipped in the first direction, the first rotating shaft 121a rotates and remains accommodated in the first limiting cavity 151c, the first rotating part 121 and the first matching part 131 are reliably matched, and the second rotating part 122 is separated from the transmission member 13, so that the air guide plate 12 can be freely flipped in the first direction; if the air guide plate 12 needs to be flipped in the second direction The locking member 15 will move toward the first locking portion 151, so that the second rotating shaft 122a is accommodated deeper in the second limiting cavity 152c, and the first rotating shaft 121a is disengaged from the first limiting cavity 151c, so that when the air guide plate 12 is flipped in the second direction, the second rotating shaft 122a rotates and remains accommodated in the second limiting cavity 152c, the second rotating portion 122 is reliably matched with the second matching portion 132, and the first rotating portion 121 is disengaged from the transmission member 13, so that the air guide plate 12 can be freely flipped in the second direction.
[0053] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 10-13As shown, the first locking portion 151 includes a first rod portion 151a and a first limiting portion 151b, and the first rod portion 151a extends in the air outlet direction of the air outlet; the limiting portion is arranged on the first rod portion 151a and defines a first limiting cavity 151c suitable for accommodating the first rotating shaft 121a between the first rod portion 151a; the second locking portion 152 includes a second rod portion 152a and a second limiting portion 152b, and the second rod portion 152a extends in the air outlet direction of the air outlet; the limiting portion is arranged on the second rod portion 152a and defines a second limiting cavity 152c suitable for accommodating the second rotating shaft 122a between the second rod portion 152a. By setting the first rod portion 151a and the first limiting portion 151b, the first limiting portion 151b is set on the first rod portion 151a and defines a first limiting cavity 151c between the first rod portion 151a. When the first rotating shaft 121a is accommodated in the first limiting cavity 151c, the first limiting portion 151b will stop with the first rotating shaft 121a to limit the movement of the first rotating portion 121, and the first rod portion 151a extends in the air outlet direction of the air outlet. When the first rotating shaft 121a is accommodated in the first limiting cavity 151c, the first rotating shaft 121a and the transmission member 13 will be spaced in the air outlet direction of the air outlet, providing space for the rotational cooperation between the first rotating portion 121 and the first matching portion 131. Similarly, by setting a second rod portion 152a and a second limiting portion 152b, the second limiting portion 152b is set on the second rod portion 152a and defines a second limiting cavity 152c between the second rod portion 152a.

When the second rotating shaft 122a is accommodated in the second limiting cavity 152c, the second rotating shaft 122a and the transmission member 13 will be spaced in the air outlet direction of the air outlet, providing space for the rotational cooperation between the second rotating portion 122 and the second matching portion 132.
[0054] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Fig. 9 , Fig.11 and Fig.13As shown, a driving tooth 142 is formed on the output shaft 141 of the driving member 14, and a transmission tooth 133 extending in the moving direction and meshing with the driving tooth 142 is formed on the transmission member 13, and the output shaft 141 is suitable for driving the transmission member 13 to move. By arranging the driving tooth 142 on the output shaft 141 of the driving member 14, the transmission and conversion of power can be realized to drive the movement of the transmission member 13. When the driving member 14 is working, the output shaft 141 rotates and drives the driving tooth 142 to rotate, and the driving tooth 142 and the transmission tooth 133 mesh with each other, thereby transmitting power to the transmission member 13 and converting the rotation into linear movement, so that the transmission member 13 moves along the set direction. Specifically, the rotation of the output shaft 141 can be achieved by a motor or other suitable driving device. The shape and size of the driving tooth 142 and the transmission tooth 133 can be designed according to actual needs to ensure that the power can be stably transmitted and the desired movement effect can be achieved.
[0055] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 14-16 As shown, a first locking tooth 143 is also formed on the output shaft 141, and a second locking tooth 153 extending in the moving direction and meshing with the first locking tooth 143 is formed on the locking member 15. The rotation of the output shaft 141 is suitable for driving the locking member 15 to move; so that when the first matching portion 131 is matched with the first rotating portion 121, the second locking portion 152 is disengaged from the second rotating portion 122; or when the second matching portion 132 is matched with the second rotating portion 122, the first locking portion 151 is disengaged from the first rotating portion 121. By providing a first locking tooth 143 on the output shaft 141 and providing a second locking tooth 153 on the locking member 15 that extends in the moving direction and meshes with the first locking tooth 143, when the output shaft 141 rotates, the locking member 15 can move with the rotation of the output shaft 141, so that when the air guide plate 12 flips over, the locking member 15 can unlock the first rotating part 121 or the second rotating part 122 accordingly according to the flipping direction of the air guide plate 12, and the transmission member 13 will also move under the drive of the driving member 14 to realize the flipping of the air guide plate 12. Specifically, the rotation of the output shaft 141 will drive the transmission member 13 and the locking member 15 to move in the same direction. If the air guide plate 12 needs to be flipped in the first direction, the first matching portion 131 will cooperate with the first rotating portion 121, and the locking member 15 will unlock the second rotating portion 122; if the air guide plate 12 needs to be flipped in the second direction, the second matching portion 132 will cooperate with the second rotating portion 122, and the locking member 15 will unlock the first rotating portion 121.
