In addition, those skilled in the art may combine and combine the different embodiments or examples described in this specification and the features of the different embodiments or examples, without contradiction.

[0031] Combine the following Figure 1 and Figure 2 An air guide plate assembly for an air conditioner and an air conditioner provided by the utility model are described. It should be understood that the following description is only an illustrative embodiment of the utility model and does not constitute any particular limitation to the utility model.

[0032] The first embodiment of the utility model provides an air guide plate assembly for an air conditioner, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the air guide plate assembly for an air conditioner includes a first air guide plate 100, a second air guide plate 200, an active driving mechanism, a first driven driving mechanism and a second driven driving mechanism.

[0033] The first air guide plate 100 and the second air guide plate 200 are rotatably connected to the air outlet of the air conditioner inner housing, respectively. The first driven driving mechanism is connected to the first air guide plate 100, and the second driven driving mechanism is connected to the second air guide plate 200. The active driving mechanism is connected to the first driven driving mechanism and the second driven driving mechanism, so as to drive the first air guide plate 100 and the second air guide plate 200 to rotate synchronously through the first driven driving mechanism and the second driven driving mechanism.

[0034] With this structural setting, during operation, the active drive mechanism can drive the first air guide plate 100 and the second air guide plate 200 to rotate synchronously through the first driven drive mechanism and the second driven drive mechanism to adjust the air volume and air outlet angle of the indoor unit of the air conditioner. As a result, not only the number of active power mechanisms of the air guide plate assembly for the air conditioner is reduced, saving costs, but also the turning synchronization of the first air guide plate 100 and the second air guide plate 200 can be improved.

[0035] In one embodiment of the present invention, a first rotating shaft is respectively disposed at both ends of the first air guide plate 100. Each first rotating shaft is passed through the inner side of the air conditioner inner unit casing to the outer side of the air conditioner inner unit casing.

[0036] A second rotating shaft is respectively disposed at both ends of the second air guide plate 200. Each second rotating shaft is passed through the inner side of the air conditioner inner unit housing to the outer side of the air conditioner inner unit housing.

[0037] For example, a first through hole and a second through hole are provided on the housing of the air conditioner inner unit, and the first through hole is provided in one-to-one correspondence with the first rotating shaft, and the second through hole is provided in one-to-one correspondence with the second rotating shaft. The first rotating shaft and the second rotating shaft are provided in parallel with each other. For example, an active driving mechanism can be provided between one of the first rotating shafts and the corresponding second rotating shaft, and a first driven driving mechanism can be provided between the first rotating shaft and the active driving mechanism, and a second driven driving mechanism can be provided between the second rotating shaft and the active driving mechanism. When the active driving mechanism drives the first air guide plate 100 and the second air guide plate 200 to rotate synchronously in the forward direction through the first driven driving mechanism and the second driven driving mechanism, the air outlet angle and air outlet volume of the air conditioner inner unit gradually increase to the maximum value; when the active driving mechanism drives the first air guide plate 100 and the second air guide plate 200 to rotate synchronously in the reverse direction through the first driven driving mechanism and the second driven driving mechanism, the air outlet angle and air outlet volume of the air conditioner inner unit gradually decrease until the air outlet is completely closed.

[0038] In one embodiment of the utility model, each first rotating shaft is respectively equipped with a first driven driving mechanism, each second rotating shaft is respectively equipped with a second driven driving mechanism, and an active driving mechanism is correspondingly arranged between each first driven driving mechanism and the corresponding second driven driving mechanism.

[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention, the active driving mechanism includes a motor and an active gear 310 , the first driven driving mechanism includes a first driven gear 320 , and the second driven driving mechanism includes a second driven gear 330 .

[0040] The motor is connected to the driving gear 310, and the first driven gear 320 and the second driven gear 330 are both meshed and connected to the driving gear 310. The first driven gear 320 is connected to the corresponding first rotating shaft, and the second driven gear 330 is connected to the corresponding second rotating shaft.

[0041] For example, in this embodiment, in order to improve the turning force balance of the first air guide plate 100 and the second air guide plate 200, a set of driving mechanisms is respectively arranged between one end of the first air guide plate 100 and one end of the second air guide plate 200, and between the other end of the first air guide plate 100 and the other end of the second air guide plate 200. Specifically, a first driven gear 320 is respectively connected to the first rotating shaft at both ends of the first air guide plate 100, and a second driven gear 330 is respectively connected to the second rotating shaft at both ends of the second air guide plate 200. A driving gear 310 is connected between each first driven gear 320 and the corresponding second driven gear 330. The driving gears 310 are respectively driven by a motor. In order to achieve the same technical effect, the prior art usually needs to be equipped with four motors, that is, the four motors are respectively arranged at both ends of the first air guide plate 100 and the two ends of the second air guide plate 200. However, the air guide plate assembly for air conditioning provided by the utility model only needs to be realized by using two motors, which can reduce the number of motors and thus reduce the cost.

[0042] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the air guide plate assembly for air conditioner further includes an installation box 400. The installation box 400 is located on the outside of the housing of the air conditioner inner unit. The motor, the driving gear 310, the first driven gear 320 and the second driven gear 330 are all arranged in the installation box 400. The first rotating shaft and the second rotating shaft are both extended into the installation box 400 and are respectively connected to the first driven gear 320 and the second driven gear 330. In this way, not only the driving mechanism of the air guide plate assembly for air conditioner can be protected, but also the space of the installation inner cavity of the air conditioner inner unit can be saved.

[0043] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, a first angle limiting protrusion 411 and a second angle limiting protrusion 412 are provided on the side wall of the installation box 400. A first angle limiting groove is provided on the first rotating shaft. A second angle limiting groove is provided on the second rotating shaft. The first angle limiting protrusion 411 can slide in the first angle limiting groove to limit the rotation angle of the first air guide plate 100. The second angle limiting protrusion 412 can slide in the second angle limiting groove to limit the rotation angle of the second air guide plate 200. For example, the first angle limiting groove and the second angle limiting groove are both arc-shaped groove structures.

[0044] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the installation box 400 includes a first half box body 410, a second half box body 420 and a connector. The first half box body 410 and the second half box body 420 are connected to each other. The connector passes through the first half box body 410 and the second half box body 420 in sequence and is connected to the air conditioner inner housing.

[0045] Further, in one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the installation box 400 also includes a motor fixing member. The motor fixing member sequentially passes through the first half box body 410, the motor and the second half box body 420 and is connected to the air conditioner inner housing.

[0046] For example, the connecting member is a connecting screw, and the motor fixing member is a fixing screw. In this embodiment, one connecting screw and two fixing screws are provided. The connecting screw is used to specifically fix the installation box 400 and the air conditioner inner machine housing. The fixing screw can not only reinforce the installation box 400 and the air conditioner inner machine housing, but also fix the motor to the installation box 400.

[0047] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, a positioning guide column 431 is provided on the inner side of the first half box body 410. A positioning guide hole 432 is provided on the inner side of the second half box body 420. The positioning guide column 431 can be inserted into the positioning guide hole 432. A positioning installation hook 441 is provided on the outer side of the first half box body 410. A positioning installation slot 442 is provided on the outer side of the second half box body 420. The positioning installation hook 441 can be clamped in the positioning installation slot 442. In this way, the docking installation connection between the first half box body 410 and the second half box body 420 can be facilitated.

[0048] An embodiment of a second aspect of the utility model provides an air conditioner, comprising the air guide plate assembly for air conditioning as described above.

[0049] Furthermore, in the air conditioner provided by the utility model, since it includes the air guide plate assembly for air conditioning as described above, it also has the advantages as described above.

[0050] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the utility model.
