[0060] The specific implementation of the utility model is:
[0061] Continue to refer Figures 1 to 5In the vehicle air conditioning module of the utility model, the blower 1 is used to generate air flow. The diffuser volute 2 guides the air flow generated by the blower 1 to the main air outlet 5. The air guide grille 3 is arranged in the diffuser volute 2. The air guide grille 3 is provided with an air distribution grid 30, which divides the air flow passing through the air distribution grid 30 into a number of sub-air flows with equal air volume. Each grid of the air distribution grid 30 includes an air inlet 31 and an air outlet 32. The area of the air outlet 32 of the grid gradually increases from the center of the air distribution grid 30 to the edge of the air distribution grid 30. The air volume of each air outlet 32 is equal, so that the original situation of the diffuser volute 2 with a larger air volume in the central area and a smaller air volume in the edge area is changed to the air volume in the central area and the air volume in the edge area based on the same effect. Each area of the evaporator 4 is respectively provided with a sub-air flow for heat exchange and then flows out from the main air outlet 5, so that each area of the evaporator 4 can be evenly heat exchanged to enhance the heat exchange effect. The angle between the first ventilation wind direction of the grid located at the center of the air distribution grid 30 and the second ventilation wind direction of the grid located at the edge of the air distribution grid 30 is less than 90°. The inner wall of the diffuser volute 2 is provided with a plurality of positioning slots 21 in an annular direction, and the outer periphery of the air guide grille 3 is provided with a plurality of positioning tenons 33, and the positioning tenons 33 of the air guide grille 3 are embedded in the positioning slots 21 of the diffuser volute 2. The area of the air inlet 31 of the air distribution grid 30 is smaller than the area of the air outlet 32, and the area difference between the area of the air outlet 32 and the area of the air inlet 31 of the grid gradually increases from the grid located at the center of the air distribution grid 30 to the grid located at the edge of the air distribution grid 30. The size of the grid of the air distribution grid 30 is greater than 6mm×6mm. The thickness of the air guide grille 3 is greater than 3mm. The air distribution grid 30 is a grid composed of a plurality of crisscross strip blades, and the thickness of the strip blades is 0.5mm to 3mm. The spacing between the air guide grille 3 and the evaporator 4 is less than 300mm. The plane where the air guide grille 3 is located is perpendicular to the air outlet direction of the main air outlet 5 , and the plane where the evaporator 4 is located is perpendicular to the air outlet direction of the main air outlet 5 .
[0062] The utility model adds an air guide grille to an air conditioner, adjusts the density and air guide direction of the air guide grille according to the velocity distribution and flow field distribution of multiple cross sections on the evaporator surface and in the volute, thereby improving the velocity uniformity on the evaporator surface and reducing noise.
[0063] This solution mainly solves the problem of wind speed uniformity of automobile air-conditioning evaporator and airflow noise in the volute. The high-speed air outlet area is guided to the low-speed area through the air guide grille, which improves the evaporator speed uniformity, improves the refrigeration performance, and reduces the risk of airflow noise in the diffuser section.
[0064] The utility model determines the inclination angle, grid size, guide direction length, and installation position of each guide plate according to the distribution of the flow field in the volute. Among them, the air guide grille has a guiding structure for adjusting the direction of the airflow, and forms a certain angle with the air outlet direction of the blower. In this embodiment, the value range of this angle α is 0-90 degrees. The thickness d of the air guide grille 3 is greater than 3mm. The basic size of the air guide grille opening must be greater than 6*6mm. The installation position of the air guide grille is between the blower outlet and the evaporator, and the distance from the air inlet surface of the evaporator must be between 0mm-300mm. The thickness of each guide vane grille needs to be between 0.8mm-3mm. The installation of the grille guide plate follows the snap-on method shown in the figure below to make the structure more stable.
[0065] The embodiment of the utility model also provides a car, comprising the above-mentioned vehicle air conditioning module, wherein the vehicle air conditioning module is embedded in the instrument panel of the car and flows air into the passenger compartment. The relevant technical features are as described above and will not be repeated here.
[0066] In summary, the vehicle air-conditioning module and the vehicle of the utility model can guide the high-speed air outlet area to the low-speed air outlet area by adding an air guide grille in the blower outlet diffusion section, thereby improving the speed uniformity of the evaporator and the evaporator refrigeration performance, while reducing the noise risk.
[0067] The above contents are further detailed descriptions of the present invention in combination with specific preferred implementations, and the specific implementation of the present invention cannot be considered to be limited to these descriptions. For ordinary technicians in the technical field to which the present invention belongs, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which should be regarded as falling within the protection scope of the present invention.
