[0023] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of the present disclosure, the scheme of the present disclosure will be further described below. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0024] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present disclosure, but the present disclosure may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; it is obvious that the embodiments in the specification are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a damper structure, wherein the damper structure 10 includes: a damper assembly 11, including two rotatably connected dampers 111; a gear assembly 12, drivingly connected to the two dampers 111, and used to drive the two dampers 111 to rotate relative to each other to an open state and a blocked state; in the open state, there is a flow space 13 between the two dampers 111, and in the blocked state, the two dampers 111 are arranged relative to each other and blocked in the flow space 13.
[0026] In specific implementation, the damper structure 10 of the embodiment of the present application includes a damper assembly 11 and a gear assembly 12. The damper assembly 11 includes two rotatably connected dampers 111. The gear assembly 12 is drivingly connected to the two dampers 111 and can drive the two dampers 111 to rotate relative to each other to an open state and a blocked state. In the blocked state, the two dampers 111 can be arranged relative to each other and blocked in the circulation space 13, so that gas cannot pass through the circulation space 13; in the open state, the two dampers 111 can be rotated to separate from each other and form a circulation space 13. The circulation space 13 can be connected to the air outlet 21, and the two dampers 111 can be rotated to the inside of the shell 20, so that when the air outlet area of the air outlet 21 is fixed, the obstruction of the damper 111 in the air inlet direction of the air outlet 21 is reduced or eliminated, thereby ensuring the effective air outlet area of the air outlet 21 and improving the overall ventilation volume.
[0027] Specifically, the circulation space 13 and the air outlet 21 are arranged opposite to each other, and the area of the circulation space 13 is greater than or equal to the area of the air outlet 21 .
[0028] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the damper structure of an embodiment of the present application, wherein the damper 111 includes a blocking portion 112 and a driving connection portion 113 connected at a preset angle, the blocking portion 112 is used to block or avoid the circulation space 13, the driving connection portion 113 is arranged on one side of the circulation space 13, and is drivingly connected to the gear assembly 12, and the driving connection portion 113 is used to drive the blocking portion 112 to rotate.
[0029] During specific implementation, the two blocking parts 112 can form or block the circulation space 13, thereby blocking the air flowing at the air outlet 21; a driving connection part 113 connected at a preset angle is provided on one side of the blocking part 112, and the driving connection part 113 is driven and connected to the gear assembly 12. The gear assembly 12 can drive the driving connection part 113 to rotate, so the driving connection part 113 can drive the blocking part 112 to rotate around the gear assembly 12, thereby achieving blocking or avoiding the air outlet 21.
[0030] Specifically, the blocking portion 112 and the driving connection portion 113 are vertically connected, which can reduce the space occupied by the driving connection portion 113 in the shell 20, thereby ensuring that the blocking portion 112 has a sufficient blocking area. When the air conditioner is turned off, the blocking portion 112 can completely block the air outlet 21.
[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the damper structure of an embodiment of the present application, wherein the gear assembly 12 includes a first gear 121 and a second gear 123 that are meshingly connected, the first gear 121 is fixedly connected to the driving connection part 113 of one of the dampers 111, and the second gear 123 is coaxially arranged with the common rotation center of the two driving connection parts 113 of the two dampers 111.
[0032] During specific implementation, the first gear 121 is fixedly connected to the driving connection part 113 of one of the dampers 111, and when the first gear 121 rotates, it can drive the corresponding damper 111 to rotate synchronously. The second gear 123 is coaxially arranged with the common rotation center of the two driving connection parts 113, so that the rotation of the two dampers 111 and the rotation of the gear assembly 12 will not affect each other. When the meshing first gear 121 and the second gear 123 rotate, the two driving connection parts 113 can drive the two blocking parts 112 to move closer to or away from each other, thereby blocking or forming the flow space 13.
[0033] Optionally, at least a portion of the driving connection portion 113 is configured as a toothed structure meshing with the first gear 121 and the second gear 123 , and the rotation of the first gear 121 and the second gear 123 can respectively drive the corresponding driving connection portion 113 to rotate.
[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the damper structure of an embodiment of the present application, wherein the damper assembly 11 also includes a driving connecting rod 114, and the first gear 121 is connected to the corresponding damper 111 through the driving connecting rod 114, one end of the driving connecting rod 114 is fixed to the driving connection part 113 of the corresponding damper 111, and the other end is fixed to the first gear 121.
[0035] During specific implementation, one end of the driving link 114 is fixed to the first gear 121, so that the first gear 121 can drive the corresponding driving link 114 to rotate around the rotation center of the gear, and the other end of the driving link 114 is fixed to the driving connection part 113, so that the driving connection part 113 can also rotate around the rotation center of the gear with the driving link 114, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the damper structure.
[0036] Specifically, the driving connecting rod 114 is clamped between the two gear teeth of the first gear 121, and the wheel center of the second gear 123 is coaxially arranged with the two driving connecting parts 113 of the two damper assemblies 11, so that when the second gear 123 rotates to drive the first gear 121 to rotate, the driving connecting part 113 can rotate with the driving connecting rod 114, and the driving connecting part 113 rotates coaxially with the second gear 123, avoiding the influence of the movement of the damper assembly 11 and the gear assembly 12, thereby ensuring the smoothness of opening and closing of the damper structure.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the damper structure of the embodiment of the present application, wherein the gear assembly 12 also includes a toggle portion 122, the toggle portion 122 is a partially disc-shaped structure, the toggle portion 122 is covered by the second gear 123, and is transmission-connected to the second gear 123, and the diameter of the toggle portion 122 is greater than the diameter of the second gear 123.
[0038] In specific implementation, the toggle part 122 is covered by the second gear 123 and is in transmission connection with the second gear 123. When the user needs to turn on or off the air conditioner, the toggle part 122 can be toggled to drive the second gear 123 to rotate, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the damper structure; and the toggle part 122 is a partially disc-shaped structure, and the diameter of the toggle part 122 is larger than the diameter of the second gear 123, which can facilitate the user to manually operate the toggle part 122. Optionally, the toggle part 122 can also be arranged corresponding to the first gear 121 and covered by the first gear 121, thereby driving the gear assembly 12 to rotate as a whole.
[0039] Optionally, the toggle portion 122 may be a rod-shaped structure protruding from the surface of the second gear 123 , and the operator may rotate the second gear 123 by shaking the toggle portion 122 of the rod-shaped structure, thereby opening and closing the damper structure.
[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the damper structure of the embodiment of the present application, wherein the damper 111 also includes a rotating connection part 115, which is connected to the blocking part 112 at a preset angle, and the rotating connection part 115 and the driving connection part 113 are connected to the two ends of the blocking part 112 relative to each other.
[0041] During specific implementation, the rotating connection part 115 and the driving connection part 113 are relatively connected to the two ends of the blocking part 112, which can assist the rotation of the blocking part 112 at the other end of the blocking part 112, thereby avoiding unstable situations such as the other end of the blocking part 112 being freely set in the shell 20 and shaking, thereby improving the stability of the blocking part 112 during the rotation process.
[0042] Specifically, the rotating connection part 115 is vertically connected to the blocking part 112, which can reduce the space occupied by the rotating connection part 115 in the shell 20, thereby ensuring that the blocking part 112 has a sufficient blocking area. When the air conditioner is turned off, the blocking part 112 can completely block the air outlet 21.
[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, the damper structure of the embodiment of the present application, wherein the damper 111 further includes a rotating shaft 116 , and two rotating connecting parts 115 are rotatably disposed on the rotating shaft 116 .
[0044] During specific implementation, the two rotating connecting parts 115 can be rotatably installed on the rotating shaft 116, ensuring that the two rotating connecting parts 115 and the two blocking parts 112 connected to the two rotating connecting parts 115 can coaxially rotate around the rotating shaft 116, so that in the blocked state, the two blocking parts 112, the two rotating connecting parts 115 and the two driving connecting parts 113 can all be stably connected to completely block the circulation space 13, thereby preventing wind from flowing out of the circulation space 13 to the air outlet 21 when the air conditioner is in the off state.
[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, the damper structure of the embodiment of the present application, wherein the blocking portion 112 is arranged in an arc-shaped structure, the driving connection portion 113 and the rotating connection portion 115 are both arranged in a fan-shaped structure, the centers of the two driving connection portions 113 are rotationally connected, the centers of the two rotating connection portions 115 are rotationally connected, and the arc portions of the driving connection portion 113 and the rotating connection portion 115 are fixedly connected to the blocking portion 112.
[0046] During specific implementation, when the blocking portion 112 rotates to an open state, the blocking portion 112 with an arc structure can have a guiding effect on the wind, thereby ensuring the air volume and air speed of the air outlet, and the blocking portion 112 with an arc structure can be adapted to the shape of the air conditioner shell 20, reducing the space occupied by the blocking portion 112 inside the shell 20; the driving connection portion 113 and the rotating connection portion 115 are both arranged in a fan-shaped structure, and the centers of the two driving connections 113 rotate to connect, and the centers of the two rotating connections 115 rotate to connect, so that the two driving connections 113 and the two rotating connections 115 can rotate coaxially and can be stably docked, and the arc parts of the driving connection portion 113 and the rotating connection portion 115 are adapted to the surface shape of the blocking portion 112 with an arc structure, which can avoid the occurrence of gaps at the connection between the two, causing wind to flow out from the gaps.
[0047] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present application further provides an air conditioner, which includes the above-mentioned damper structure, and the air conditioner also includes a shell 20, the damper structure 10 is arranged in the shell 20, and the shell 20 has an air outlet 21, and the air outlet 21 is connected to the circulation space 13.
[0048] Specifically, the damper 111 is rotatably connected to the interior of the shell 20 via the rotating shaft 116, and the driving connection part 113 is also rotatably connected to the interior of the shell 20. When the damper 111 is in an open state, the two dampers 111 rotate in opposite directions to enter the interior of the shell 20 and fit into the interior of the shell 20 to form a circulation space 13. The arrangement of the air outlet 21 being connected to the circulation space 13 ensures that the air outlet 21 is not blocked by the damper 111 and can have sufficient ventilation.
[0049] Specifically, the air conditioner further includes a fan blade assembly 30 . When the air door 111 is in an open state, the air door 111 is located between the fan blade assembly 30 and the housing 20 to avoid the wind generated by the fan blade assembly 30 .
[0050] An embodiment of the present application also provides a vehicle, wherein the vehicle includes the above-mentioned air conditioner.

It can rotate to an open state and a blocked state. In the blocked state, the two dampers 111 can be arranged opposite to each other, and the blocking portion 112 can block the flow space 13, so that gas cannot pass through the flow space 13; in the open state, the two dampers 111 can rotate to be separated from each other, and there is a flow space 13 between the two blocking portions 112, and the flow space 13 can be connected with the air outlet 21, thereby preventing the dampers 111 from blocking the air outlet 21, ensuring the effective air outlet area of the air outlet 21, so that there is sufficient ventilation at the air outlet 21.
