Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air conditioning, in particular to an air outlet structure and an air conditioner. Background Art

[0002] Air conditioners are used in daily life to provide air conditioning to users' living and working environments, thereby improving the air quality in users' living and working environments, thereby enhancing users' comfort in their living and working environments.

[0003] Among them, the air conditioner adopts the method of introducing airflow into the designated area to achieve the function of air conditioning in the designated area. In the prior art, the air conditioner needs to be disassembled and maintained after long-term use. However, the air conditioner in the prior art is difficult to disassemble, especially the structure of the air outlet part, which is difficult to disassemble and assemble, thereby increasing the difficulty of maintenance and the maintenance cost, which affects the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0004] The problem solved by the utility model is how to improve the problem in the prior art that the air outlet part of the air conditioner is difficult to disassemble, resulting in high maintenance difficulty and affecting the user experience.

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides an air outlet structure for installation on an air conditioner main body of an air conditioner, the air outlet structure comprising:

[0006] Bearing body;

[0007] The wind wheel has a rotating shaft and a bearing arranged on the rotating shaft; the rotating shaft passes through the bearing body and is rotatably matched with the bearing body; the bearing is used to be detachably fixed to the air conditioner body;

[0008] The elastic member is arranged between the bearing and the bearing body, and drives the wind wheel to move along the axis of the rotating shaft when the bearing is separated from the air conditioner body.

[0009] The beneficial effects of the air outlet structure provided by the utility model compared with the prior art include:

[0010] When the air outlet structure needs to be disassembled, it is only necessary to disassemble the bearing from the air conditioner body. Due to the elastic recovery effect of the elastic member, the fan wheel can be pulled out along the axial direction of the rotating shaft, which reduces the difficulty of disassembling the fan wheel, thereby reducing the difficulty of disassembling the air outlet part of the air conditioner, thereby improving the maintenance convenience and reducing the maintenance cost. Therefore, the air outlet structure provided by the utility model can improve the problem of the high difficulty of disassembling the air outlet part of the air conditioner in the prior art, which leads to high maintenance difficulty and affects the user experience.

[0011] Optionally, the elastic member is a spring, and a diameter of the elastic member gradually decreases along its axial direction.

[0012] By setting the diameter of the spring to gradually decrease in the axial direction, the spring can be compressed to be flatter when it is compressed, thereby increasing the compression stroke of the spring, thereby increasing the mutual movement stroke between the bearing and the load-bearing body, which is beneficial to meeting the precision requirements of wind wheel assembly.

[0013] Optionally, one end of the elastic member with a smaller diameter abuts against the bearing, and the other end abuts against the bearing body.

[0014] Since the bearing body is kept in a relatively stable state relative to the air conditioner body, supporting the larger end of the spring against the bearing body is beneficial to improving the overall stability of the spring.

[0015] Optionally, a bearing portion is provided on the bearing body, a through hole is provided on the bearing portion for the rotation shaft to pass through, and the elastic member is supported against the bearing portion.

[0016] Optionally, a receiving groove is further provided on the bearing portion, and the internal space of the receiving groove is communicated with the internal space of the through hole; and one end of the elastic member away from the bearing is received in the receiving groove.

[0017] By accommodating the elastic part in the accommodating groove, on the one hand, the overall stability of the elastic part can be ensured, and the position deviation of the elastic part that affects the disassembly of the wind wheel can be avoided; on the other hand, by accommodating the elastic part in the accommodating groove, the elastic part can be prevented from rotating with the rotating shaft, thereby preventing the elastic part from being damaged by rotation.

[0018] Optionally, the accommodating groove is coaxially arranged with the through hole.

[0019] Since the rotating shaft passes through the through hole and the elastic member is sleeved on the rotating shaft, the accommodating groove is arranged coaxially with the through hole, which can facilitate the assembly and accommodation of the elastic member.

[0020] Optionally, the inner diameter of the accommodating groove is adapted to the diameter of the elastic member.

[0021] When the elastic member is installed in the receiving groove, the inner wall of the receiving groove can contact the elastic member to provide a certain restriction effect on the elastic member, thereby preventing the elastic member from rotating with the rotating shaft and preventing the elastic member from being damaged by rotation.

[0022] Optionally, the inner diameter of the accommodating groove is smaller than the outer diameter of the bearing.

[0023] During the assembly process, the bearing can be prevented from being installed in the receiving groove, the bearing and the load-bearing part can be prevented from excessively compressing the elastic part and causing damage to the elastic part, and the bearing can be prevented from being stuck in the receiving groove and causing damage to the bearing during the assembly process.

[0024] Optionally, a radial mounting hole is provided on the bearing, and a matching hole adapted to the mounting hole is provided on the rotating shaft; the bearing is detachably connected to the rotating shaft via a connecting piece passing through the mounting hole and the matching hole.

[0025] After the bearing drives the wind wheel to move axially along the rotating shaft so that the wind wheel is removed from the driving device, the connecting part can be removed from the mounting hole and the matching hole to complete the disassembly of the bearing and the rotating shaft. Then, the rotating shaft can be removed from the bearing body to complete the disassembly of the wind wheel.

[0026] An air conditioner comprises the above-mentioned air outlet structure.

[0027] The air conditioner provided by the utility model adopts the above-mentioned air outlet structure. The beneficial effects of the air conditioner relative to the prior art are the same as the beneficial effects of the above-mentioned air outlet structure relative to the prior art, which will not be repeated here.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] See also Figure 1 and Figure 3In this embodiment, an air conditioner 10 is provided. The air conditioner 10 can be installed in a designated area and achieve the purpose of air conditioning the designated area by blowing air to the designated area. It is worth noting that the air conditioner 10 provided in this embodiment refers to an indoor air conditioner. Correspondingly, the air conditioner 10 provided in this embodiment can be connected to an outdoor air conditioner to realize the basic functions of the air conditioner 10.

[0036] The air conditioner 10 includes an air conditioner body 11 and an air outlet structure 12. The air outlet structure 12 is arranged on the air conditioner body 11, and the air outlet structure 12 is used to discharge air to a designated area to achieve air conditioning. It is worth noting that the air outlet structure 12 provided in this embodiment can improve the problem that the air outlet part of the air conditioner 10 in the prior art is difficult to disassemble, resulting in high maintenance difficulty and affecting the user experience; based on this, the air conditioner 10 using the air outlet structure 12 can also improve the problem that the air outlet part of the air conditioner 10 in the prior art is difficult to disassemble, resulting in high maintenance difficulty and affecting the user experience.

[0037] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the air outlet structure 12 includes a bearing body 100, a wind wheel 200 and an elastic member 300. The wind wheel 200 is rotatably connected to the bearing body 100. In addition, the air outlet structure 12 also includes a driving device, which is used to drive the wind wheel 200 to rotate; it is worth noting that the driving device is arranged at one end of the axial direction of the wind wheel 200. The wind wheel 200 has a rotating shaft 210 and a bearing 220 arranged on the rotating shaft 210; the rotating shaft 210 passes through the bearing body 100 and is rotatably matched with the bearing body 100; the bearing 220 is used to be detachably fixed to the air conditioner body 11. In this embodiment, a bearing 220 seat for fixing the bearing 220 is arranged on the air conditioner body 11, and the bearing 220 can be installed on the bearing 220 seat. In addition, the rotating shaft 210 is provided at one end of the wind wheel 200, and correspondingly, a driving shaft 230 assembled with a driving device is provided at the other end of the wind wheel 200, and the driving device realizes the rotation of the wind wheel 200 by driving the driving shaft 230 to rotate. The elastic member 300 is provided between the bearing 220 and the load-bearing body 100, and drives the wind wheel 200 to move along the axis of the rotating shaft 210 when the bearing 220 is separated from the air-conditioning body 11. It is worth noting that when the wind wheel 200 is in normal assembly, the bearing 220 and the load-bearing body 100 jointly compress the elastic member 300; based on this, when the bearing 220 is removed from the bearing 220 seat, the axial movement of the wind wheel 200 along the rotating shaft 210 can be realized by the elastic recovery effect of the elastic member 300, for example, Figure 1 In the viewing angle shown, the elastic recovery effect of the elastic member 300 can enable the wind wheel 200 to slide leftward.

[0038] As described above, when the air outlet structure 12 needs to be disassembled, it is only necessary to disassemble the bearing 220 from the air conditioner body 11. Due to the elastic recovery effect of the elastic member 300, the wind wheel 200 can be pulled out along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 210, thereby reducing the difficulty of disassembling the wind wheel 200, thereby reducing the difficulty of disassembling the air outlet part of the air conditioner 10, thereby improving the maintenance convenience and reducing the maintenance cost. Therefore, the air outlet structure 12 provided in this embodiment can improve the problem in the prior art that the air outlet part of the air conditioner 10 is difficult to disassemble, resulting in high maintenance difficulty and affecting the user experience.

[0039] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the elastic member 300 is a spring, and the diameter of the elastic member 300 gradually decreases along its axial direction. The diameter of the spring is set to gradually decrease in the axial direction, so that the spring can be compressed to be flatter when it is compressed, thereby increasing the compression stroke of the spring, thereby increasing the stroke of the mutual movement between the bearing 220 and the bearing body 100, which is conducive to meeting the precision requirements of the wind wheel 200 assembly. Figure 1 It can be seen that the spring as a whole can be regarded as a "pagoda-shaped" or a frustum-shaped.

[0040] It should be understood that in other embodiments of the present application, the elastic member 300 may also be a cylindrical spring or other elastic structures.

[0041] In addition, in order to further improve the axial compression stroke of the elastic member 300, optionally, the elastic member 300 can be divided into a plurality of elastic parts 310, and the plurality of elastic parts 310 together constitute a pagoda-shaped spring; wherein each elastic part 310 is presenting a spirally extended annular structure; it is worth noting that, of two adjacent elastic parts 310, the inner diameter of the elastic part 310 with a larger diameter is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the elastic part 310 with a smaller diameter. Based on this, when the elastic member 300 is fully compressed, the elastic part 310 with a smaller diameter can be accommodated on the inner side of the elastic part 310 with a larger diameter. That is to say, under theoretical conditions, the elastic member 300 can be compressed into a sheet-like structure.

[0042] In this embodiment, the end of the elastic member 300 with a smaller diameter abuts against the bearing 220, and the other end abuts against the bearing body 100. Since the bearing body 100 is kept in a relatively stable state relative to the air conditioner body 11, abutting the larger end of the spring against the bearing body 100 is conducive to improving the overall stability of the spring.

[0043] Of course, in some other embodiments of the present application, the elastic member 300 may be disposed in such a manner that the end with a smaller diameter abuts against the supporting body 100 , while the other end abuts against the bearing 220 .

[0044] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, a bearing portion 110 is disposed on the bearing body 100. A through hole 111 is formed on the bearing portion 110 for the rotation shaft 210 to pass through. The elastic member 300 is supported on the bearing portion 110. Figure 1 It can be seen that the bearing body 100 has a chamber (not marked in the figure) for accommodating the integral wind wheel 200, and a plate-like structure for carrying the wind wheel 200 is formed at both ends of the axial direction of the wind wheel 200, and the bearing part 110 is a partial reinforcement structure arranged on the plate-like structure. The thickness of the bearing part 110 is greater than the plate-like structure, so as to improve the overall strength of the partial structure carrying the wind wheel 200 and ensure the overall stability of the wind wheel 200. In addition, in this embodiment, the bearing part 110 can be adapted to another partial structure on the air conditioner body 11, so as to facilitate the assembly of the air conditioner body 11 and the air outlet structure 12.

[0045] The bearing portion 110 is also provided with a receiving groove 112, the inner space of which is communicated with the inner space of the through hole 111; the end of the elastic member 300 away from the bearing 220 is received in the receiving groove 112. By receiving the elastic member 300 in the receiving groove 112, on the one hand, the overall stability of the elastic member 300 can be ensured, and the position deviation of the elastic member 300 can be prevented from affecting the disassembly of the wind wheel 200; on the other hand, by receiving the elastic member 300 in the receiving groove 112, the elastic member 300 can be prevented from rotating with the rotating shaft 210, and the elastic member 300 can be prevented from being damaged by rotation.

[0046] It is worth noting that, because the thickness of the bearing part 110 is greater than that of the plate-like structure, the overall strength of the bearing part 110 can still be ensured after the receiving groove 112 is provided on the bearing part 110. The thickness of the portion of the bearing part 110 where the through hole 111 is provided is equivalent to the thickness of the plate-like structure.

[0047] Furthermore, the receiving groove 112 is coaxially arranged with the through hole 111. Since the rotating shaft 210 is arranged through the through hole 111, and the elastic member 300 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 210, the receiving groove 112 is arranged coaxially with the through hole 111, which can facilitate the assembly and accommodation of the elastic member 300. Among them, in the case where the elastic member 300 is a spring, the spring is arranged in a manner of being sleeved on the rotating shaft 210, and the receiving groove 112 is arranged coaxially with the through hole 111, which can facilitate the arrangement of the spring and the assembly of the spring. It should be understood that in other embodiments of the present application, the opening method of the receiving groove 112 can also be arranged eccentrically with the through hole 111.

[0048] In addition, the inner diameter of the receiving groove 112 is adapted to the diameter of the elastic member 300. When the elastic member 300 is loaded into the receiving groove 112, the inner wall of the receiving groove 112 can contact the elastic member 300 to provide a certain restriction to the elastic member 300, so as to prevent the elastic member 300 from rotating with the rotating shaft 210 and prevent the elastic member 300 from being damaged by rotation. In other words, the inner peripheral wall of the receiving groove 112 also needs to provide friction force to the elastic member 300 to limit the rotation of the elastic member 300. Therefore, setting the diameter of the elastic member 300 to match the inner diameter of the receiving groove 112 can facilitate the outer side of the elastic member 300 to contact the inner wall of the receiving groove 112, thereby limiting the rotation of the elastic member 300.

[0049] Optionally, in this embodiment, the inner diameter of the receiving groove 112 is smaller than the outer diameter of the bearing 220. During the assembly process, the bearing 220 can be prevented from being installed in the receiving groove 112, and the bearing 220 and the bearing portion 110 can be prevented from over-compressing the elastic member 300 and causing damage to the elastic member 300. The bearing 220 can also be prevented from being stuck in the receiving groove 112 and causing damage to the bearing 220 during the assembly process.

[0050] In this embodiment, a radial mounting hole 221 is provided on the bearing 220, and a matching hole 211 matching with the mounting hole 221 is provided on the rotating shaft 210; the bearing 220 is detachably connected to the rotating shaft 210 via a connecting piece passing through the mounting hole 221 and the matching hole 211. After the bearing 220 drives the wind wheel 200 to move along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 210 so that the wind wheel 200 is removed from the driving device, the connecting piece can be removed from the mounting hole 221 and the matching hole 211, and the bearing 220 and the rotating shaft 210 are disassembled, and the rotating shaft 210 can be removed from the bearing body 100, and the wind wheel 200 is disassembled.

[0051] In summary, in the air outlet structure 12 and the air conditioner 10 provided in the present embodiment, when the air outlet structure 12 needs to be disassembled, it is only necessary to disassemble the bearing 220 from the air conditioner body 11. Due to the elastic recovery effect of the elastic member 300, the wind wheel 200 can be pulled out along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 210, thereby reducing the difficulty of disassembling the wind wheel 200, thereby reducing the difficulty of disassembling the air outlet part of the air conditioner 10, and improving the maintenance convenience and reducing the maintenance cost. Therefore, the air outlet structure 12 provided in the present embodiment can improve the problem that the air outlet part of the air conditioner 10 is difficult to disassemble and thus difficult to maintain, thereby affecting the user experience in the prior art. In addition, by accommodating the elastic member 300 through the accommodating groove 112, on the one hand, the overall stability of the elastic member 300 can be ensured, and the position deviation of the elastic member 300 can be avoided to affect the disassembly of the wind wheel 200; on the other hand, by accommodating the elastic member 300 through the accommodating groove 112, the elastic member 300 can be avoided from rotating with the rotating shaft 210, and the elastic member 300 can be avoided from being damaged by rotation.

[0052] Although the utility model is disclosed as above, the utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model shall be subject to the scope defined by the claims.
