[0036] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the adjustment grille 100 includes:

[0037] The grille device 110 includes a mounting frame 111, a rotating shaft 112, and blades 113. The mounting frame 111 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the air outlet 210. The mounting frame 111 is provided with a mounting opening communicating with the air outlet 210. A plurality of rotating shafts 112 are arranged at intervals in the mounting opening. The blades 113 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the rotating shafts 112. Each blade 113 is rotatably sleeved outside the corresponding rotating shaft 112; and

[0038] The telescopic device 120 includes a bracket 121 and a first telescopic assembly 122. The bracket 121 is detachably arranged on the inner wall of the air outlet 210. The first telescopic assembly 122 is arranged on the bracket 121 and is drivingly connected to the mounting frame 111 to drive the grille device 110 to move outside the air outlet 210 or move back into the air outlet 210.

[0039] The adjustable grille 100 in the technical solution of the present utility model includes a grille device 110 and a telescopic device 120. The first telescopic assembly 122 of the telescopic device 120 is drivingly connected to the mounting frame 111 of the grille device 110. The mounting frame 111 of the grille device 110 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the air outlet 210. By the telescopic movement of the first telescopic assembly 122, the whole grille device 110 is driven to move, so that the grille device 110 can move outside the air outlet 210 or move back into the air outlet 210. When the grille device 110 is inside the air outlet 210, the air conditioner works normally. When the grille device 110 moves outside the air outlet 210, the grille device 110 is exposed, with a large surrounding space and less obstruction, which is convenient for cleaning the grille device 110, thereby improving the convenience when cleaning the adjustable grille 100; on the other hand, it is beneficial to reduce the cleaning dead corners and improve the cleanliness of the adjustable grille 100 after cleaning, thereby reducing harmful substances such as bacteria and viruses carried in the air blown out by the air conditioner.

[0040] Refer to Figure 2 In the embodiment of the present utility model, the telescopic device 120 includes a bracket 121 and a first telescopic assembly 122. The bracket 121 is detachably connected to the inner wall of the air outlet 210, which can be realized by means such as screw attachment or snap connection. By removing the bracket 121 from the inner wall of the air outlet 210, the whole adjustable grille 100 can be detached from the air outlet 210, further improving the convenience when cleaning the adjustable grille 100. In addition, when the grille device 110 has been used for a long time, it is prone to deformation due to thermal expansion and contraction. Detaching the whole adjustable grille 100 from the air outlet 210 is convenient for replacing the grille device 110. Among them, the first telescopic assembly 122 can adopt various methods such as a cylinder, a pneumatic telescopic rod, and an electric push rod.

[0041] Refer to Figure 4, in an embodiment of the present utility model, the grille device 110 includes a mounting frame 111, a rotating shaft 112, and blades 113. The mounting frame 111 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the air outlet 210 and is provided with a mounting opening communicating with the air outlet 210. The mounting frame 111 provides a mounting position for the rotating shaft 112 and the blades 113, facilitating the overall movement of the grille device 110. A plurality of rotating shafts 112 are spaced apart in the mounting opening, and each rotating shaft 112 is sleeved with a blade 113, enabling each blade 113 to rotate around the corresponding rotating shaft 112, thereby changing the blowing angle of the air passing through the mounting opening. The structure of the entire grille device 110 is relatively simple, easy to manufacture, and low in cost.

[0042] In one embodiment, there are two first telescopic components 122. The two first telescopic components 122 expand and contract synchronously and are respectively arranged at both ends in the width direction of the mounting frame 111. Each first telescopic component 122 is correspondingly provided with a bracket 121.

[0043] Refer to Figure 1 , in an embodiment of the present utility model, at both ends in the width direction of the mounting frame 111, two first telescopic components 122 are provided, improving the balance and stability of the grille device 110, especially the balance and stability when the grille device 110 extends outside the air outlet 210. The two first telescopic components 122 expand and contract synchronously, which helps to ensure the consistency and symmetry of the grille device 110 when extending or retracting, reducing the possibility of the grille device 110 getting stuck during movement and reducing faults and damages.

[0044] In one embodiment, the first telescopic component 122 is a pneumatic telescopic rod.

[0045] , in an embodiment of the present utility model, the first telescopic component 122 is in the form of a pneumatic telescopic rod, which is low in cost, easy to cooperate with the compressor of the air conditioner, and has a long service life.

[0046] In one embodiment, the grille device 110 further includes a first elastic member 114. Adjacent two blades 113 are connected by at least one first elastic member 114.

[0047] Refer to Figure 4In an embodiment of the utility model, two adjacent blades 113 are connected by at least one first elastic member 114, so that the multiple blades 113 are connected as a whole and swing synchronously within a certain angle, thereby ensuring the consistency of the air outlet direction of the air conditioner and avoiding different blades 113 facing different angles, which causes turbulent air flow after the air is discharged. The first elastic member 114 is elastic. By connecting two adjacent blades 113 through the first elastic member 114, the first elastic member 114 can play a buffering role on the blades 113, improve the smoothness and stability of the blades 113 when rotating, and reduce the vibration of the blades 113 when rotating, thereby reducing the problem of abnormal sound and noise when adjusting the angle of the blades 113. Specifically in this embodiment, a first elastic member 114 is set between two adjacent blades 113, and does not occupy additional space.

[0048] In one embodiment, the grill device 110 further includes a driving mechanism 115 , and the driving mechanism 115 drives one of the blades 113 to rotate the blade 113 .

[0049] Reference Figure 4 In the embodiment of the utility model, the grille device 110 further includes a driving mechanism 115. Since two adjacent blades 113 are connected by the first elastic member 114, the driving mechanism 115 drives one of the blades 113 to rotate, thereby driving all the blades 113 to rotate. The driving mechanism 115 drives the blades 113 to rotate, thereby reducing the manual operation and improving the rotation accuracy of the blades 113. The driving mechanism 115 can be driven by a motor, a cylinder, an electric push rod, etc., as long as the functional requirements are met, and it is not limited here.

[0050] In one embodiment, the driving mechanism 115 and the first elastic member 114 are disposed on the same side of the rotating shaft 112 .

[0051] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 In an embodiment of the utility model, the driving mechanism 115 and the first elastic member 114 are arranged on the same side of the rotating shaft 112. When the driving mechanism 115 drives the blades 113 connected to the driving mechanism 115 to rotate, the force applied by the driving mechanism 115 can be quickly transmitted to the adjacent blades 113 through the first elastic member 114, thereby reducing the rotation time difference between the multiple blades 113, thereby improving the response speed of the overall adjustment angle of the multiple blades 113, realizing the adjustment of the air outlet angle of the air conditioner more quickly, and reducing the user waiting time.

[0052] In one embodiment, the grille device 110 further includes a second elastic member 116 . The mounting opening has a top wall and a bottom wall opposite to each other. The second elastic member 116 connects the top wall and the bottom wall and is disposed on a side of the rotating shaft 112 away from the first elastic member 114 and connects each blade 113 .

[0053] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 In an embodiment of the present utility model, the grille device 110 further includes a second elastic member 116. The second elastic member 116 connects the top wall and the bottom wall of the mounting opening, and each blade 113 is connected to the second elastic member 116. The first elastic member 114 and the second elastic member 116 are located on both sides of the rotating shaft 112. When the driving mechanism 115 drives one end of the blade 113 provided with the first elastic member 114 to rotate in one direction, the end of the blade 113 connected to the second elastic member 116 will rotate in the opposite direction. The second elastic member 116 plays a certain damping role, further improving the stability of the blade 113 during rotation, avoiding sudden movement of the blade 113, and thus reducing the possibility of damage to the blade 113.

[0054] In one embodiment, the driving mechanism 115 includes:

[0055] A second telescopic assembly 1151 having a fixed end and a telescopic end. The fixed end is provided on the mounting frame 111, and the telescopic end extends into the mounting opening; and

[0056] A connecting spring 1152 is provided at the telescopic end and is connected to one of the blades 113. The second telescopic assembly 1151 drives the blade 113 to rotate through the connecting spring 1152 during telescoping.

[0057] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 In an embodiment of the present utility model, the driving mechanism 115 includes a second telescopic assembly 1151 and a connecting spring 1152. The second telescopic assembly 1151 performs linear motion and can adopt various methods such as a cylinder, a pneumatic telescopic rod, an electric push rod, etc. The connecting spring 1152 connects the telescopic end of the second telescopic assembly 1151 and the blade 113 to be driven. Since the connecting spring 1152 has a certain flexibility, jamming during the conversion from linear motion to rotational motion is avoided. The second telescopic assembly 1151 drives the blade 113 to rotate through linear motion, with a simple structure, easy implementation, high reliability, and not easily damaged.

[0058] In one embodiment, the mounting frame 111 is provided with a mounting groove 1111 communicating with the mounting opening, and the fixed end is provided in the mounting groove 1111.

[0059] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 In an embodiment of the present utility model, the fixed end of the second telescopic assembly 1151 is arranged in the mounting groove 1111 provided in the mounting frame 111, making the structure of the entire grille device 110 more compact and occupying less space.

[0060] The above are only exemplary embodiments of the present utility model, and thus do not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformation made under the technical concept of the present utility model by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present utility model, or any direct / indirect application in other related technical fields, is included in the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
