DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0043] The specific implementation of the present disclosure is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described herein is only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, and is not used to limit the present disclosure.
[0044] In the present disclosure, unless otherwise stated, directional words such as "front, back, left, right" are used based on Figure 1 and Figure 2 The XY coordinate system is defined in the figure. Specifically, the X direction represents the front-to-back direction, and the side indicated by the arrow is the front, and the opposite is the back. The Y direction represents the left-to-right direction, and the side indicated by the arrow is the left, and the opposite is the right. The up and down directions can refer to the gravity direction of the corresponding components. "Inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside of the contours of each component itself. "Upstream and downstream" are defined based on the flow direction of the airflow. The terms "first and second" are used to distinguish one element from another, and do not have order and importance. In addition, when the following description refers to the drawings, the same figure marks in different drawings represent the same or similar elements, and the present disclosure will not elaborate on this.
[0045] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, a finger guard net assembly is provided, referring to Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 6 as well as Figures 10 to 12 As shown in , the finger guard net assembly 4 includes a finger guard net 41 and a diverter 42 , and the diverter 42 is detachably connected to the finger guard net 41 .
[0046] Through the above technical scheme, in the finger guard net assembly 4 provided in the present invention, the diverter 42 is configured to be detachably connected to the finger guard net 41, that is, the finger guard net 41 and the diverter 42 are two separate parts. In this way, compared with the method of integrally forming the finger guard net 41 and the diverter, the material, shape, etc. of the diverter 42 can be designed separately without considering the finger guard net 41, so that the diverter 42 itself has a higher structural strength. In this way, when the diverter 42 and the finger guard net 41 are connected together, when the airflow flows through the diverter 42, the diverter 42 is not easy to deform, and when the airflow causes the finger guard net 41 to deform, the deformation of the finger guard net 41 is not easy to deform the diverter 42. Therefore, the finger guard net assembly 4 disclosed in the present invention can solve the technical problem that the diverter 42 is easy to deform.
[0047] It should be noted that the present disclosure does not limit the specific detachable connection method between the diverter 42 and the finger guard net 41, which will be described in detail in the following embodiments.
[0048] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the flow divider 42 may be made of a metal material. Thus, compared to the flow divider 42 made of a plastic material, the flow divider 42 made of a metal material has a higher structural strength, and thus, is less likely to deform. Here, the flow divider 42 may be made of aluminum, and the present disclosure does not limit this.
[0049] In the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6As shown in , the finger guard net 41 may include a frame 43 and a finger guard net body 411 disposed in the frame 43, the diverter 42 is detachably connected to the frame 43, and the diverter 42 is spaced apart from the finger guard net body 411. Here, the finger guard net body 411 may be deformed by the airflow, and at this time, since the diverter 42 is spaced apart from the finger guard net body 411, the deformation of the finger guard net body 411 can be prevented from being transmitted to the diverter 42, and thus, such a setting can effectively prevent the diverter 42 from being deformed, improve the stability and reliability of the diverter 42, and avoid abnormal noise caused by the deformation of the diverter 42.
[0050] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, reference Figures 10 to 12 As shown in , the frame 43 may have an upper frame 431 and a lower frame 432, both of which have a limiting hole 435, and the upper and lower ends of the diverter 42 are respectively penetrated in the corresponding limiting holes 435, and the lower end of the diverter 42 also extends out of the lower frame 432, so that the limiting hole 435 can provide a limit for the diverter 42. The finger guard net assembly 4 may include a pressure cover 44, the pressure cover 44 has a fixing hole 441, the fixing hole 441 is connected to the diverter 42 by interference fit, and the pressure cover 44 is detachably connected to the lower frame 432. In this way, the pressure cover 44 and the diverter 42 can be fixedly connected by the interference fit of the fixing hole 441 and the diverter 42, and the assembly of the diverter 42 and the finger guard net 41 can be realized by the connection between the pressure cover 44 and the lower frame 432, and the structure is simple and easy to operate.
[0051] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, reference Figures 10 to 12 As shown in , the lower frame 432 may be provided with a connecting column 436, and the connecting column 436 has a threaded hole for threaded connection with a fastener, and the gland 44 has a through hole 442 that cooperates with the connecting column 436. In this way. Through the threaded connection between the fastener and the threaded hole, the gland 44 and the connecting column 436 can be fixed, and the reliability is high. Of course, in other embodiments of the present disclosure, the gland 44 can also be snap-connected to the lower frame 432. For example, one of the gland 44 and the lower frame 432 can be provided with a buckle, and the other can be provided with a slot. Through the snap connection between the buckle and the slot, the gland 44 and the lower frame 432 can be detachably connected.
[0052] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, reference Fig.11 As shown in , the limiting hole 435 of the upper frame 431 can be configured as a blind hole. In this way, the upper frame 431 can also provide downward limiting for the diverter 42.
[0053] Optionally, refer to Fig.11 and Fig.12As shown in , the upper frame 431 and the lower frame 432 are respectively provided with a boss 433, and the boss 433 can be provided with a limiting hole 435. In this way, the boss 433 can also provide a mounting base for the diverter 42. In addition, compared with increasing the size of the upper frame 431 or the lower frame 432 as a whole, adding the boss 433 can also help reduce the volume and weight of the upper frame 431 or the lower frame 432, which is conducive to the compact design of the indoor unit.
[0054] Optionally, refer to Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown in , the limiting hole 435 can also extend into the corresponding upper frame 431 or lower frame 432. In this way, the upper frame 431 and the lower frame 432 can also be used to provide a mounting base for the diverter 42. In addition, the limiting hole 435 is arranged by using the upper frame 431 or the lower frame 432, which can also be adapted to the diverter 42 with different sizes.
[0055] Optionally, refer to Fig.10 As shown in , the boss 433 of the upper frame 431 may also be provided with a mounting platform 434, and the mounting platform 434 is used to overlap the flow splitter bracket 35 of the indoor unit. In this way, by utilizing the overlap of the mounting platform 434 and the flow splitter bracket 35, it is convenient to arrange a sealing structure at the overlap of the mounting platform 434 and the flow splitter bracket 35, so as to realize the sealed connection between the upper frame 431 and the flow splitter bracket 35.
[0056] In the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown in , the finger guard net 41 includes a finger guard net body 411, and the diverter 42 can be arranged at the front side of the finger guard net body 411 and located downstream of the finger guard net body 411. The diverter 42 can be arranged to guide the airflow flowing through itself to flow leftward and forward. Here, for an indoor unit with two air outlets, the diverter 42 of the present disclosure can realize the pre-diversion of the airflow flowing out of the crossflow fan 1, for example, referring to Figures 1 to 3 As shown in , the airflow from the crossflow fan 1 can flow from back to front and gradually to the right to reach the outlet 22. At this time, a part of the airflow can pass through the finger guard net body 411 and continue to flow to the right and forward, and flow out through the second air outlet 32. Another part of the airflow can pass through the finger guard net body 411 and flow to the left and forward under the guidance of the diverter 42, and flow out through the first air outlet 31. At this time, the pre-diversion of the airflow by the diverter 42 is conducive to achieving uniform air outlets of the first air outlet 31 and the second air outlet 32, that is, it is conducive to achieving basically the same air volume of the first air outlet 31 and the second air outlet 32. Therefore, the above-mentioned setting can make the finger guard net assembly 4 adapt to the application of dual-air outlet indoor units.
[0057] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, reference Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6As shown in , the finger guard net body 411 may have a left end, a right end, and a middle end between the left end and the right end. Here, the middle end may be understood as a position in the left-right direction that divides the finger guard net body 411 in half. The flow divider 42 may be constructed as a flow divider rib, and the flow divider rib has a first upstream end 421 and a first downstream end 422. The first upstream end 421 may be arranged on the right side of the middle end. Here, since the airflow flowing out of the crossflow fan 1 flows from the back to the front and gradually flows to the right to reach the outlet 22, the airflow velocity on the right side of the outlet 22 is relatively large, and the airflow velocity on the left side of the outlet 22 is relatively small. Therefore, by arranging the first upstream end 421 on the right side of the middle end, more airflows with a slower flow velocity can flow to the first air outlet 31 through the guide of the flow divider 42, and less airflows with a faster flow velocity can flow to the right and forward to the first air outlet 31. At this time, such an arrangement can achieve uniform air discharge from the first air outlet 31 and the second air outlet 32.
[0058] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, reference Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown in FIG. 4 , the first downstream end 422 may be located on the left side of the first upstream end 421. In this way, the flow divider 42 is conducive to guiding the airflow to flow to the left.
[0059] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, reference Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown in , the diverter rib can be constructed as an arc-shaped plate-like structure. Of course, in other embodiments, the diverter rib can also be constructed as a flat plate-like structure, and the present disclosure does not limit this.
[0060] In the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown in , the finger guard net 41 may be at least partially recessed to form a clearance space 100 for avoiding the sweeping blade 34. Here, the provision of the clearance space 100 can avoid interference between the sweeping blade 34 and the finger guard net assembly 4, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the sweeping blade 34 and the finger guard net assembly 4. According to some embodiments, when the finger guard net assembly 4 is arranged at the outlet 22 of the indoor unit, the sweeping blade 34 may be arranged on the front side of the finger guard net body 411. At this time, the sweeping blade 34 can change the flow direction of the airflow by rotating, for example, to achieve up and down sweeping. During the rotation of the sweeping blade 34, the provision of the clearance space 100 can avoid collision between the finger guard net body 411 and the sweeping blade 34. According to some embodiments, the spacing between the sweeping blade 34 and the finger guard net body 411 may be not less than 3 mm to 5 mm, so as to absorb the influence of assembly error and manufacturing error, and further avoid collision between the finger guard net body 411 and the sweeping blade 34.
[0061] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, reference Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown in , the finger guard net 41 includes a finger guard net body 411, and the finger guard net body 411 may have a first net body 4113 and a second net body 4114 connected together, and the first net body 4113 and the second net body 4114 are respectively formed with a clearance space 100. In this way, the first net body 4113 and the second net body 4114 can respectively avoid the corresponding wind sweeping blades 34 through the clearance spaces 100 formed by themselves, thereby being adapted to be used in a double-outlet indoor unit, for example, the indoor unit may include a first air outlet 31 and a second air outlet 32, and a wind sweeping blade 34 may be arranged on the rear side or upstream of the first air outlet 31 and the second air outlet, and the wind sweeping blade 34 may be partially arranged in the corresponding clearance space 100.
[0062] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, reference Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown in , the first mesh body 4113 and the second mesh body 4114 can jointly make the finger guard net body 411 configured as an M-shaped net. That is, the finger guard net body 411 of the present disclosure can form the above two clearance spaces 100 through its own M-shaped shape, thereby facilitating the formation of the two clearance spaces 100.
[0063] Optionally, refer to Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown in , the connection 4115 between the first mesh body 4113 and the second mesh body 4114 can be located at the front end of the finger guard net body 411. Here, the connection 4115 can be used to facilitate the arrangement of the diverter 42. In addition, since the connection 4115 is located at the front end of the finger guard net 41, it is beneficial to ensure the diverter effect of the diverter 42.
[0064] Optionally, the finger guard net body 411 is constructed in a grid shape and has vertical ribs 4111 and horizontal ribs 4112 connected together, wherein the first net body 4113 has at least three vertical ribs 4111 spaced sequentially along the left-right direction; among the three adjacent vertical ribs 4111, the front end of the middle vertical rib 4111 is arranged in front of the front ends of the vertical ribs 4111 on both sides.
[0065] Optionally, refer to Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6As shown in the figure, the finger guard net body 411 is constructed in a grid shape and has vertical ribs 4111 and horizontal ribs 4112 connected together, wherein the first net body 4113 can have at least three vertical ribs 4111 spaced sequentially along the left-right direction; among the three adjacent vertical ribs 4111, the front end of the middle vertical rib 4111 can be set at the front side of the front end of the vertical ribs 4111 located on both sides. In this way, in the implementation mode in which the diverter 42 is configured to guide the airflow passing through it to flow to the left and forward, the middle vertical rib 4111 is arranged closer to the front side or downstream, which can facilitate the airflow passing through the middle vertical rib 4111 to flow forward to the diverter 42, and avoid the situation in which the front end of the middle vertical rib 4111 is arranged at the rear side of the front end of the vertical ribs 4111 on both sides, so that part of the airflow passing through the middle vertical rib 4111 flows directly to the second air outlet 32 without passing through the diverter 42. Therefore, the above arrangement is also conducive to achieving uniform air discharge from the first air outlet 31 and the second air outlet 32. Here, in some embodiments, reference is made to Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown in , the second mesh body 4114 may have a vertical rib 4111, but the present disclosure does not limit this.
[0066] In the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown in , the finger guard net 41 includes a finger guard net body 411, which is constructed in a grid shape and has vertical ribs 4111 and horizontal ribs 4112 connected together. Here, the vertical ribs 4111 can be understood as a rib arranged in the up and down direction, wherein the vertical ribs 4111 have a second upstream end 41111 and a second downstream end 41112, and the width of the second upstream end 41111 can be smaller than the width of the second downstream end 41112. In this way, the wind resistance can be reduced, thereby reducing the loss of wind volume. It should be noted that the width of the second upstream end 41111 can be understood as the width of the cross section of the second upstream end 41111, and similarly, the width of the second downstream end 41112 can be understood as the width of the cross section of the second downstream end 41112.
[0067] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, reference Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown in , the transverse rib 4112 has a third upstream end 41121 and a third downstream end 41122, and the width of the third upstream end 41121 can be smaller than the width of the third downstream end 41122. In this way, the wind resistance can be reduced, thereby reducing the loss of wind volume. It should be noted that the width of the third upstream end 41121 can be understood as the width of the longitudinal section of the third upstream end 41121, and similarly, the width of the third downstream end 41122 can be understood as the width of the longitudinal section of the third downstream end 41122.
[0068] In the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown in , the finger guard net 41 includes a finger guard net body 411, which is constructed in a grid shape and has vertical ribs 4111 and horizontal ribs 4112 connected together, wherein the vertical ribs 4111 can be arranged to extend gradually from back to front to the right in an inclined manner. In this way, the vertical ribs 4111 can adapt to the airflow flowing gradually from back to front to the right, thereby reducing wind resistance and thus reducing the loss of air volume. Here, the finger guard net body 411 can have a plurality of vertical ribs 4111, wherein any two vertical ribs 4111 can be parallel to each other, or any two vertical ribs 4111 can be arranged at an angle, and the present disclosure does not limit this.
[0069] In the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to Figures 8 to 11 As shown in , the finger guard net 41 may include a frame 43 and a finger guard net body 411 disposed in the frame 43, and a connecting structure 45 may be disposed on the frame 43, and the frame 43 is used to be detachably connected to the shunt bracket 35 of the indoor unit through the connecting structure 45. In this way, the finger guard net 41 and the shunt bracket 35 can be disassembled and assembled through the connecting structure 45, which facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the finger guard net assembly 4 and the shunt bracket 35. Here, the present disclosure does not limit the specific structure of the connecting structure 45, and the present disclosure will be described in detail in the following embodiments.

[0082] In the exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the diverter cone 33 may include a first diverter plate 331 and a second diverter plate 332 set at an angle, and the first diverter plate 331 and the second diverter plate 332 are both provided with wind sweeping blades 34.
