[0041] Ceiling air conditioners are usually embedded in the indoor ceiling in a hidden installation form, and their air outlets are located on the ceiling. The air inlet grille is a panel with multiple small holes or slits, covering the air outlet of the ceiling air conditioner, used to adjust the air supply direction of the ceiling air conditioner.

[0042] Since the ceiling air conditioner is installed at a high position, the operator needs to use tools such as ladders to stand at a high place to dismantle the air inlet grille for cleaning or maintenance. However, dismantling the air inlet grille at a high place is inconvenient and poses a safety hazard.

[0043] To solve the above-mentioned problems, the present application provides an air inlet grille structure and an air conditioner, wherein the air inlet grille structure comprises an air inlet grille body, an installation shell, a driving assembly and a snap assembly; wherein the installation shell is used to connect with the air conditioner, and the air inlet grille body is connected to an opening opened at the bottom of the installation shell through the driving assembly; through the driving assembly, the air inlet grille body can be driven to rise or fall, thereby realizing automatic disassembly and installation of the air inlet grille, so that the operator can conveniently disassemble and assemble the air inlet grille without having to stand in a high place, thereby improving the operating efficiency and avoiding the safety hazards of height-reaching operations; through the snap assembly, the disassembly state of the air inlet grille body can be combined, and when the air inlet grille body covers the opening, the installation shell and the air inlet grille body can be snapped together; and when the air inlet grille body is separated from the opening, the installation shell and the air inlet grille body are disengaged, thereby helping to improve the connection stability of the air inlet grille structure of the present application, and making the air inlet grille body and the installation shell firmly connected and not easy to loosen.

[0044] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of the air inlet grille provided in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 2 for Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the connection structure between the middle buckle assembly, the air inlet grille body and the mounting shell; Figure 3 for Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the connection structure between the middle buckle assembly, the air inlet grille body and the mounting shell in another state.

[0045] On the one hand, combined with Figures 1 to 3As shown, the present application provides an air inlet grille structure, including an air inlet grille body 100, an installation shell 200, a driving assembly 300 and a snap assembly 400; the installation shell 200 is used to connect to the air conditioner, and an opening 210 is opened at the bottom of the installation shell 200; the installation shell 200 is connected to the air inlet grille body 100 through the driving assembly 300, and the driving assembly 300 is configured to drive the air inlet grille body 100 to rise or fall so that the air inlet grille body 100 covers or detaches from the opening 210; the snap assembly 400 includes at least one elastic hook 410, the elastic hook 410 is connected to the installation shell 200, and the elastic hook 410 is configured to move toward the air inlet grille body 100 when the air inlet grille body 100 covers the opening 210 so as to snap with the air inlet grille body 100; when the air inlet grille body 100 detaches from the opening 210, move away from the air inlet grille body 100 so as to snap away from the air inlet grille body 100.

[0046] By setting up the installation shell 200, the air inlet grille body 100 is connected to the air conditioner, and the driving assembly 300 and the snap assembly 400 for connecting the air inlet grille body 100 and the installation shell 200 are both set on the installation shell 200. The disassembly and installation of the air inlet grille body 100 can be carried out relative to the installation shell 200, which facilitates the overall disassembly and maintenance in case of failure, and can also reduce the internal space occupied by the air conditioner.

[0047] The driving assembly 300 is connected to the mounting housing 200 and the air inlet grille body 100 at the same time. When the driving assembly 300 is in operation, the air inlet grille body 100 can be driven to move. Specifically, when the air inlet grille needs to be removed for cleaning, it is only necessary to operate the driving assembly 300 to drive the air inlet grille body 100 to descend. When the air inlet grille needs to be installed after cleaning, it is only necessary to operate the driving assembly 300 to drive the air inlet grille body 100 to rise and cover the position of the opening 210. Furthermore, the filter of the air conditioner can be set to be connected to the air inlet grille body 100 of the present application, and the filter can be driven to be removed together when the air inlet grille body 100 is removed, so as to realize the convenience of removing the air conditioner filter.

[0048] The elastic hook 410 and the mounting housing 200 are fixedly connected, and the elastic hook 410 is also selectively engaged with the air inlet grille body 100 in combination with the disassembly state of the air inlet grille body 100. Specifically, when the air inlet grille body 100 is covered in the opening 210, the elastic hook 410 engages with the air inlet grille body 100 to connect the air inlet grille body 100 and the mounting housing 200 together, so that the air inlet grille body 100 and the mounting housing 200 are firmly connected and not easy to be loosened; and when the air inlet grille body 100 is separated from the opening 210, the elastic hook 410 is disengaged from the air inlet grille body 100 to disengage the air inlet grille body 100 and the mounting housing 200, so as not to hinder the disassembly of the air inlet grille body 100.

[0049] The air inlet grille structure of the present application is convenient and easy to operate. The operator does not need to stand at a high place, but only needs to operate the driving component 300 to conveniently disassemble and assemble the air inlet grille body 100, which improves the working efficiency and avoids the safety hazards of high-altitude operations.

[0050] In some embodiments, the buckle assembly 400 further includes at least one first driving member 420 , which is connected to the inner wall of the mounting shell 200 and is used to drive the elastic hook 410 to move toward or away from the air inlet grille body 100 .

[0051] The first driving member 420 corresponds to the elastic hook 410 one by one, and the first driving member 420 drives the corresponding elastic hook 410 to move. When the elastic hook 410 moves in a direction close to the air inlet grille body 100, it can be engaged with the air inlet grille body 100 to achieve the connection between the air inlet grille body 100 and the mounting shell 200; when the elastic hook 410 moves in a direction away from the air inlet grille body 100, it can be disengaged from the air inlet grille body 100 to achieve the disengagement of the air inlet grille body 100 from the mounting shell 200. After the air inlet grille body is disengaged from the mounting shell 200, the air inlet grille body 100 can be lowered or raised under the action of the driving assembly 300.

[0052] In some embodiments, the first driving member 420 is a first magnetic member 421 . The first magnetic member 421 is located on a side of the elastic hook 410 away from the air inlet grille body 100 . The first magnetic member 421 absorbs or releases the elastic hook 410 .

[0053] Exemplarily, the first magnetic attraction member 421 is an electromagnet, the elastic hook 410 is a magnet or a ferromagnetic metal member that can be electromagnetically attracted, and the elastic hook 410 is elastic.

[0054] Combination Figure 3 As shown, when the air inlet grille body 100 needs to be separated from the opening 210 to descend, the first magnetic attraction member 421 is energized to generate magnetic force to attract the elastic hook 410 so that the elastic hook 410 is deformed to move away from the air inlet grille body 100, thereby disengaging from the air inlet grille body 100, thereby achieving the separation of the air inlet grille body 100 from the mounting shell 200; Figure 2 As shown, when the air inlet grille body 100 rises to cover the opening 210, the electromagnetic force of the first magnetic attraction member 421 disappears to release the adsorption of the elastic hook 410, so that the elastic hook 410 recovers its deformation to approach the air inlet grille body 100, thereby engaging with the air inlet grille body 100, thereby realizing the connection between the air inlet grille body 100 and the mounting shell 200.

[0055] Figure 4 for Figure 1Another schematic diagram of the connection structure between the middle buckle assembly, the air inlet grille body and the mounting shell. Figure 4 As shown, in other embodiments, the first driving member 420 is an elastic member 422, one end of the elastic member 422 is connected to the inner wall of the mounting shell 200, and the other end of the elastic member 422 is connected to the side of the elastic hook 410 away from the air inlet grille body 100.

[0056] Exemplarily, the elastic member 422 is a spring. The elastic hook 410 has a guiding inclined surface 4111 .

[0057] When the air inlet grille body 100 is about to leave the opening 210, the air inlet grille body 100 descends to squeeze the guide slope 4111, thereby deforming the elastic hook 410 to compress the spring, and the elastic hook 410 moves away from the air inlet grille body 100, thereby disengaging from the air inlet grille body 100; when the air inlet grille body 100 enters the opening 210, the air inlet grille body 100 rises to squeeze the bottom of the elastic hook 410, thereby deforming the elastic hook 410 to compress the spring, and the elastic hook 410 moves away from the air inlet grille body 100 so that the air inlet grille body 100 can enter the opening 210. After the air inlet grille body 100 completely enters the opening 210, the squeezing effect on the elastic hook 410 disappears, and under the action of the spring and the resilience of the elastic hook 410, the elastic hook 410 recovers its deformation to approach the air inlet grille body 100, thereby disengaging from the air inlet grille body 100.

[0058] Furthermore, the buckle assembly 400 may not be provided with the first driving member 420 , and the buckle assembly 400 may be connected or disconnected with the air inlet grille body 100 only by the elastic action of the elastic hook 410 .

[0059] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the inner side wall of the mounting shell 200 has a mounting portion 220 , the mounting portion 220 extends into the interior of the mounting shell 200 , and the elastic hook 410 is connected to the mounting portion 220 .

[0060] Exemplarily, the mounting portion 220 may be an annular convex strip disposed inside the mounting housing 200 , or may be a protrusion corresponding one-to-one with the elastic hook 410 .

[0061] Furthermore, in some other embodiments, the mounting portion 220 may be integrated with the elastic hook 410 and connected to an end of the elastic hook 410 facing away from the air inlet grille body 100 , and the elastic hook 410 is connected to the mounting shell 200 via the mounting portion 220 .

[0062] Wherein, when the first driving member 420 is an elastic member 422, the mounting portion 220 may not be provided inside the mounting housing 200, and the elastic hook 410 is connected to the mounting housing 200 through the elastic member 422. In specific implementation, the upward and downward movement of the air inlet grille will squeeze the elastic hook 410 so that the elastic hook 410 squeezes the elastic member 422, and the elastic member 422 is deformed after being pressed to drive the elastic hook 410 away from the air inlet grille body 100 and cancel the clamping connection with the air inlet grille body 100; after the air inlet grille body 100 completely enters the opening 210, the squeezing effect on the elastic hook 410 disappears, and under the action of the rebound force of the elastic member 422, the elastic hook 410 approaches the air inlet grille body 100 and clamps with the air inlet grille body 100.

[0063] In some embodiments, a clearance groove 230 connected to the opening 210 is provided at a position corresponding to the opening 210 and the elastic hook 410. The hook body 411 of the elastic hook 410 extends to the outside of the mounting shell 200 through the clearance groove 230. The elastic hook 410 moves along the clearance groove 230 under the drive of the first driving member 420 so that the hook body 411 is engaged or disengaged with the air inlet grille body 100.

[0064] The end of the elastic hook 410 facing away from the hook body 411 is connected to the mounting portion 220, and the end of the elastic hook 410 close to the hook body 411 extends into the clearance groove 230. Driven by the first driving member 420, the end of the elastic hook 410 close to the hook body 411 is deformed and drives the hook body 411 to approach or away from the air inlet grille body 100, so as to be engaged with or disengaged from the air inlet grille body 100.

[0065] The guiding slope 4111 is disposed on a surface where the hook 411 is engaged with the air inlet grille body 100, and extends in a direction away from the air inlet grille body 100. A chamfer for guiding is also disposed on the side of the hook 411 away from the air inlet grille body 100.

[0066] Figure 5 for Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the connection structure between the adsorption component, the air inlet grille body and the mounting shell. Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, an adsorption component 500 is also included, and the adsorption component 500 includes at least two second magnetic components 510 and at least two magnets 520, one of the second magnetic components 510 and the magnet 520 is connected to at least one pair of sides of the air inlet grille body 100, and the other is connected to the side wall of the opening 210, and the second magnetic component 510 and the magnet 520 correspond one to one; the second magnetic component 510 and the magnet 520 are configured such that when the air inlet grille body 100 is close to the opening 210, the second magnetic component 510 adsorbs the magnet 520 to allow the air inlet grille body 100 to enter the opening 210.

[0067] Exemplarily, the second magnetic attraction member 510 is an electromagnet, and the magnet 520 is a magnet or a ferromagnetic metal member that can be attracted by the electromagnet.

[0068] When the air inlet grille body 100 is to be lowered to be separated from the opening 210, the second magnetic attraction member 510 is powered off and does not generate attraction to the magnet 520, so that the air inlet grille body 100 can be smoothly separated from the opening 210; when the air inlet grille body 100 is raised into the opening 210, the second magnetic attraction member 510 is powered on to generate attraction to the magnet 520, and the adsorption effect of the second magnetic attraction member 510 and the magnet 520 prompts the air inlet grille body 100 to enter the opening 210. By providing the adsorption assembly 500, the stable connection between the air inlet grille body 100 and the mounting housing 200 can be further improved.

[0069] In other embodiments, one of the second magnetic attraction member 510 and the magnet 520 may be a magnet, and the other may be a ferromagnetic metal member that can be attracted by a magnet.

[0070] Combination Figure 5 As shown, the second magnetic attraction member 510 may be disposed at the bottom of the opening 210 , and the magnet 520 may also be correspondingly disposed on a surface of the air inlet grille body 100 close to the opening 210 .

[0071] Figure 6 for Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the central air inlet grille body, mounting shell and guide assembly. Figure 6 As shown, or, further includes a guide assembly 600, which includes a first guide portion 610 arranged at an edge of one side of the air inlet grille body 100 close to the mounting shell 200 and a second guide portion 620 arranged at an edge of one end of the opening 210 close to the air inlet grille body 100.

[0072] The first guide portion 610 is a fillet or chamfer provided at the edge of the air inlet grille body 100; the second guide portion 620 is a fillet or chamfer provided at the edge of one end of the opening 210 close to the air inlet grille body 100. By providing the guide assembly 600, when the air inlet grille body 100 is installed, a guide effect can be provided for the air inlet grille body 100 to enter the opening 210. Combined with the adsorption assembly 500, the air inlet grille body 100 can be aligned with the opening 210 and quickly enter the opening 210. The second magnetic attraction member 510 and the magnet 520 are preferably distributed at least one pair of corners of the air inlet grille body 100 and the opening 210 to form an adsorption effect at multiple points and improve the alignment effect of the air inlet grille body 100 and the opening 210.

[0073] Figure 7 for Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the connection structure between the middle drive assembly, the air inlet grille body and the mounting shell. Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments, the driving assembly 300 includes a second driving member 310, and the second driving member 310 includes a fixed part and a movable part, the fixed part is connected to the mounting shell 200, and the movable part is connected to the air inlet grille body 100, and the movable part is used to move relative to the fixed part to drive the air inlet grille body 100 to rise or fall.

[0074] The second driving member 310 is a power component for driving the air inlet grille body 100 to move. The fixed part of the second driving member 310 is fixed, and when the movable part moves relative to the fixed part, it also drives the air inlet grille body 100 to move, so that the air inlet grille body 100 can be lowered or raised.

[0075] In some embodiments, the second driving member 310 is a motor 311, and a pull rope 320 is connected to the output shaft 330 of the motor 311. The middle part of the pull rope 320 is wound around the shaft 330 of the motor 311, and the end of the pull rope 320 is connected to the air inlet grille body 100. The motor 311 is used to reel in the pull rope 320 to drive the air inlet grille body 100 to move upward, or release the pull rope 320 to drive the air inlet grille body 100 to descend.

[0076] Among them, the rotating shaft 330 is coaxially connected to the output shaft of the motor 311. When the output shaft of the motor 311 rotates, it drives the rotating shaft 330 to rotate to reel in or release the pull rope 320 wound on the rotating shaft 330. When the pull rope 320 is reeled in, the air inlet grille body 100 connected to the end of the pull rope 320 will rise; when the pull rope 320 is released, the air inlet grille body 100 connected to the end of the pull rope 320 will drop under the action of gravity.

[0077] Exemplarily, the pull rope 320 may be one or more, and the end of the pull rope 320 away from the motor 311 is connected to the four corners of the air inlet grille body 100, which is beneficial for the air inlet grille body 100 to remain horizontal during the rising or falling process so as to be aligned with the opening 210 during installation.

[0078] Furthermore, the motor 311 driving assembly 300 further includes at least two guide shafts 340, each guide shaft 340 is distributed at both ends of the extension direction of the opening 210, the end of the pull rope 320 is connected to the air inlet grille body 100 via the guide shaft 340, and the guide shaft 340 is parallel to the axial direction of the rotating shaft 330. The pull rope 320 is guided by the guide shaft 340, so that the air inlet grille body 100 can be pulled vertically, further promoting the air inlet grille body 100 to remain horizontal during the movement.

[0079] In other embodiments, the second driving member 310 is a telescopic rod, the telescopic end of which is connected to the air inlet grille body 100, the fixed end of which is connected to the mounting housing 200, and the telescopic end of which drives the air inlet grille body to descend or ascend.

[0080] When the first driving member 420 is an elastic member 422, the corresponding second driving member 310 is a telescopic rod. When the air inlet grille body 100 is disassembled, the thrust generated by the telescopic rod on the air inlet grille body 100 can cause the air inlet grille body 100 to squeeze the hook to shrink the elastic member 422, thereby driving the elastic hook 410 away from the air inlet grille, so that the air inlet grille body 100 can be smoothly lowered.

[0081] When one of the second magnetic member 510 and the magnet 520 is a magnet and the other is a ferromagnetic metal member that can be attracted by a magnet, the corresponding second driving member 310 is a telescopic rod. When the air inlet grille body 100 is disassembled, the telescopic rod can generate a downward thrust on the air inlet grille body 100 to overcome the suction force between the second magnetic member 510 and the magnet 520, so that the air inlet grille body 100 is disengaged from the mounting housing 200 and drives the air inlet grille body 100 to descend.

[0082] On the other hand, the present application provides an air conditioner, comprising an air conditioner body and any one of the above-mentioned air inlet grille structures arranged on the air conditioner body.

[0083] The air inlet grille structure has been described in detail in the above embodiments and will not be described again here.

[0084] In summary, the air inlet grille structure provided by the present application includes an air inlet grille body 100, an installation shell 200, a driving assembly 300, a buckle assembly 400, an adsorption assembly 500 and a guide assembly 600; the driving assembly 300 can drive the air inlet grille body 100 to rise or fall, so as to realize the automatic disassembly and installation of the air inlet grille, so that the operator can conveniently disassemble and install the air inlet grille without standing at a high place, thereby improving the operation efficiency and avoiding the safety hazards of the high-altitude operation; the buckle assembly 400 can be combined with the disassembled state of the air inlet grille body 100, when the air inlet grille body 100 covers the opening 2 10, the installation shell 200 is engaged with the air inlet grille body 100; and when the air inlet grille body 100 is separated from the opening 210, the installation shell 200 is separated from the air inlet grille body 100, which helps to improve the connection stability of the air inlet grille structure of the present application, and makes the air inlet grille body 100 and the installation shell 200 firmly connected and not easy to loosen; through the adsorption component 500 and the guide component 600, when the air inlet grille body 100 is installed, a guiding effect can be provided for the air inlet grille body 100 to enter the opening 210, which can prompt the air inlet grille body 100 to align with the opening 210 and quickly enter the opening 210.
