[0095] The present utility model will be described in detail below by way of describing exemplary embodiments.

[0096]

First Embodiment

[0097] Figure 1A and Figure 1B show a part of the active intake air assembly according to the first embodiment of the present utility model. According to the present utility model, the active intake air assembly includes a frame provided with an opening for intake air. The active intake air assembly can be installed on a vehicle, such as at the front of the vehicle. For example, the frame of the active intake air assembly is installed on the main frame of the vehicle or forms a part of the main frame of the vehicle. Figure 1A and Figure 1B The components of the active intake air assembly shown in are configured to be integrally installed on the frame of the active intake air assembly. The first blade 100 and the second blade 200 of the active intake air assembly are located in the opening of the frame to close or open the opening.

[0098] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1A and Figure 1B , the active intake air assembly includes a first blade 100 and a second blade 200. The first blade 100 and the second blade 200 are rotatably fixed to the frame of the active intake air assembly, and the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 can rotate around the first rotation axis 101 and the second rotation axis 201 respectively.

[0099] The first blade 100 includes a first main body 110 and a first rotating arm 120. One end of the first rotating arm 120 is fixedly mounted to the first main body 110, and the first rotating arm 120 is fixedly connected to the drive mechanism 300 at a portion spaced apart from this end. The drive mechanism 300 is arranged on one side of the first blade 100 along the first rotation axis 101 of the first blade 100, so as to transmit the output torque of the drive mechanism 300 to the first blade 100. Among them, the drive mechanism 300 is, for example, a columnar member including a spline section, which is in spline fit with a motor (not shown) fixed on the frame of the active intake assembly, so as to be driven to rotate by the motor, such that the drive mechanism 300 can drive the first blade 100 to rotate around the first rotation axis 101 through the first rotating arm 120. As Figure 1A and Figure 1B shown, the rotation axis 301 of the drive mechanism 300 coincides with the first rotation axis 101 of the first blade 100.

[0100] The second blade 200 includes a second main body 210 and a second rotating arm 220. One end of the second rotating arm 220 is fixedly mounted to the second main body 210, and the second rotating arm 220 is rotatably mounted to the frame at a portion spaced apart from this end to define a second rotation axis 201. A cylindrical pin member 221 is fixedly provided on the second rotating arm 220. The pin member 221 can be received in a circular hole on the frame and rotate relative to the circular hole, such that the second blade 200 rotates around the second rotation axis 201.

[0101] In addition, as Figure 1A and Figure 1B shown, both the first rotating arm 120 and the second rotating arm 220 are formed as sheet bodies, and respectively have connection portions with longer cross-sections with the first main body 110 and the second main body 210, such that the first rotating arm 120 and the second rotating arm 220 have greater strength themselves and respectively have greater connection strength with the first main body 110 and the second main body 210.

[0102] As Figure 1A and Figure 1B shown, the first blade 100 may have another rotating arm at an end opposite to the first rotating arm 120 along the first rotation axis 101, and this another rotating arm can be rotatably mounted to the frame through a pin member fixedly provided thereon. Correspondingly, the second blade 200 may have another rotating arm at an end opposite to the second rotating arm 220 along its second rotation axis 201, and this another rotating arm of the second blade 200 can also be rotatably mounted to the frame through a pin member fixedly provided thereon.

[0103] In Figure 1A both the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 are in the closed position, that is, the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 close the opening of the frame. InFigure 1B In [description], the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 are both in the open position, that is, the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 open the opening of the frame. The first blade 100 and the second blade 200 rotate from the closed position to the open position in opposite rotational directions, so that an unobstructed space for air flow is formed between the first blade 100 and the second blade 200. Therefore, the maximum air intake volume of the active air intake assembly can be increased, and the air intake control ability of the active air intake assembly can be improved.

[0104] Figures 1A to 1D Also shown in [description] is a first transmission member 1400. The first transmission member 1400 is a connecting rod that connects the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 to each other, so that the first transmission member 1400 directly connects the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 in a single-piece form. The first transmission member 1400 is rotatably connected to a first pin 1125 fixed to the first rotating arm 120 and a second pin 1225 fixed to the second rotating arm 220, respectively. Thus, the driving mechanism 300 drives the first blade 100 to rotate around the first rotation axis 101, and the rotation of the first blade 100 further drives the movement of the first transmission member 1400. In other words, the first transmission member 1400 receives the driving force from the driving mechanism 300 and finally drives the rotation of the second blade 200.

[0105] Next, with reference to Figure 1C and Figure 1D , the working process of the active air intake assembly according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described.

[0106] In Figure 1C , the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 are in the closed position. For the second blade 200, the second pin 1225 is generally located on the right side of the pin member 221. In order to move the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 from the closed position to the open position, a driving force is provided to the driving mechanism 300. With reference to the perspective of Figure 1C , from Figures 1C to 1D , providing a driving force to the driving mechanism 300 causes the driving mechanism 300 to rotate counterclockwise, which causes the first blade 100 to also rotate counterclockwise, that is, rotate counterclockwise around the first rotation axis 101. Due to the rotation of the first blade 100, the first pin 1125 of the first blade 100 moves towards the lower left, thereby driving the first transmission member 1400 to move towards the lower left. Thus, the first transmission member 1400 exerts a force approximately towards the lower left on the second pin 1225 of the second blade 200, causing the second blade 200 to rotate clockwise around the second rotation axis 201. As a result, both the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 rotate to the open position.

[0107] From Figures 1D to 1C, a driving force is provided to the driving mechanism 300 to cause the driving mechanism 300 to rotate clockwise, which causes the first blade 100 to also rotate clockwise, that is, to rotate clockwise about the first rotation axis 101. Due to this clockwise rotation of the first blade 100, the first pin 1125 of the first blade 100 moves towards the upper right, thereby driving the first transmission member 1400 to move towards the upper right. Thus, the first transmission member 1400 exerts a force on the second pin 1225 of the second blade 200 that is generally towards the upper right, causing the second blade 200 to rotate counterclockwise about the second rotation axis 201. As a result, both the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 rotate to the closed position.

[0108]

Second Embodiment

[0109] Figures 2A to 2D The active intake assembly according to the second embodiment of the present invention is shown. Most of the structures of the frame, the driving mechanism 300, the first blade 100, and the second blade 200 of the active intake assembly according to the second embodiment of the present invention can be the same as the corresponding parts in the first embodiment. Therefore, the structural details of these parts will not be described in detail below, and only the differences between the active intake assembly of the second embodiment and the first embodiment will be described below.

[0110] Referring to Figures 2A to 2D , cylindrical pin members 121 and 221 are respectively fixed on the first rotating arm 120 and the second rotating arm 220, so that the first rotating arm 120 and the second rotating arm 220 are respectively rotatably mounted on the frame. Among them, the pin members 121 and 221 can be respectively received in the corresponding circular holes on the frame and rotate relative to the corresponding circular holes, so that the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 can respectively rotate about the first rotation axis 101 and the second rotation axis 201.

[0111] Figures 2A to 2D The first transmission member 2400 is also shown in

[0112] Figures 2A to 2DAlso shown is a transmission connecting member 2500. The transmission connecting member 2500 includes a torque receiving portion 2510 and a chute portion 2520 that are fixedly connected to each other. The torque receiving portion 2510 and the chute portion 2520 are, for example, integrally formed with each other. Among them, the torque receiving portion 2510 is used to receive the output torque from the driving mechanism 300 to rotate the transmission connecting member 2500, and the chute portion 2520 has a slideway 2530. On the other hand, a transmission pin 2126 is also provided on the first rotating arm 120 of the first blade 100. The transmission pin 2126 is spaced apart from the pin member 121 and the first pin 2125 of the first rotating arm 120. The transmission pin 2126 is received in the slideway 2530 and can slide in the slideway 2530 to drive the rotation of the first blade 100. Thus, the driving mechanism 300 drives the rotation of the transmission connecting member 2500, the transmission connecting member 2500 drives the rotation of the first blade 100 through the transmission pin 2126, the first blade 100 drives the movement of the first transmission member 2400 through the first pin 2125, and the first transmission member 2400 drives the rotation of the second blade 200 through the second pin 2225. In other words, the first transmission member 2400 receives the driving force from the driving mechanism 300 and finally drives the rotation of the second blade 200.

[0113] Next, with reference to Figure 2C and Figure 2D , the working process of the active intake air assembly according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described.

[0114] In Figure 2C , the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 are in the closed position. For the first blade 100, the transmission pin 2126 is located at the upper left of the pin member 121, the first pin 2125 is located at the upper left of the pin member 121, and in addition, the rotation axis 301 of the driving mechanism 300 is located substantially to the left of the transmission pin 2126. For the second blade 200, the second pin 2225 is located substantially to the right of the pin member 221. In order to move the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 from the closed position to the open position, a driving force is provided to the driving mechanism 300. With reference to Figure 2C 's perspective, from Figures 2C to 2D, a driving force is provided to the driving mechanism 300 to cause the driving mechanism 300 to rotate clockwise, so that the transmission connecting member 2500 also rotates clockwise around the rotation axis 301 of the driving mechanism 300. Therefore, the transmission pin 2126 received in the slideway 2530 of the chute portion 2520 of the transmission connecting member 2500 is driven by the chute portion 2520 to move downward, so that the first blade 100 rotates counterclockwise around the first rotation axis 101. Due to the counterclockwise rotation of the first blade 101, the first pin 2125 of the first blade 100 moves toward the lower left, thereby driving the first transmission member 2400 to move toward the lower left. Thus, the first transmission member 2400 exerts a force approximately toward the lower left on the second pin 2225 of the second blade 200, so that the second blade 200 rotates clockwise around the second rotation axis 201. Then, both the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 rotate to the open position.

[0115] From Figures 2D to 2C , a driving force is provided to the driving mechanism 300 to cause the driving mechanism 300 to rotate counterclockwise, so that the transmission connecting member 2500 also rotates counterclockwise around the rotation axis 301 of the driving mechanism 300. Therefore, the transmission pin 2126 received in the slideway 2530 is driven by the chute portion 2520 to move upward, so that the first blade 100 rotates clockwise around the first rotation axis 101. Therefore, the first pin 2125 of the first blade 100 moves toward the upper right, thereby driving the first transmission member 2400 to move toward the upper right. Thus, the first transmission member 2400 exerts a force approximately toward the upper right on the second pin 2225 of the second blade 200, so that the second blade 200 rotates counterclockwise around the second rotation axis 201. Then, both the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 rotate to the closed position.

Third Embodiment

[0117] Figures 3A to 3E The active intake air assembly according to the third embodiment of the present invention is shown. Most of the structures of the frame, the driving mechanism 300, the first blade 100, and the second blade 200 of the active intake air assembly according to the third embodiment of the present invention can be the same as the corresponding parts in the second embodiment. Therefore, the structural details of the above components will not be described in detail below, and only the differences between the active intake air assembly of the third embodiment and the second embodiment will be described below.

[0118] As Figures 3A to 3DAs shown, the first vane 100 is fixedly provided with a first pin 3125 on the first rotating arm 120, and the second vane 200 is fixedly provided with a second pin 3225 on the second rotating arm 220. On the other hand, the first transmission member 3400 includes a rod-shaped main body 3450 and a first branch portion 3410 and a second branch portion 3420 extending from the rod-shaped main body 3450. A first slideway 3430 extending along the length direction of the first branch portion 3410 is provided in the first branch portion 3410, and a second slideway 3440 extending along the length direction of the second branch portion 3420 is provided in the second branch portion 3420. The first pin 3125 of the first vane 100 is slidably received in the first slideway 3430, and the second pin 3225 of the second vane 200 is slidably received in the second slideway 3440. Thus, in the third embodiment, the first transmission member 3400 drives the rotation of the first vane 100 and the second vane 200 through the first pin 3125 and the second pin 3225.

[0119] Figures 3A to 3D A guide member 3600 is also shown, and the guide member 3600 is configured to receive the first transmission member 3400 to guide the first transmission member 3400 to perform a linear motion. As Figures 3A to 3D shown, the guide member 3600 can be divided into multiple parts, which are respectively arranged along the length direction of the rod-shaped main body 3450 and are all fixed relative to the frame of the active intake assembly, so as to more stably limit the motion of the first transmission member 3400 to a linear motion.

[0120] Figures 3A to 3D A transmission connection assembly 3500 is also shown, and the transmission connection assembly 3500 includes a torque transmission member 3510 and a transmission connecting rod 3520. The torque transmission member 3510 is fixedly connected to the drive mechanism 300 and receives the output torque of the drive mechanism 300 to rotate. For example, the torque transmission member 3510 is in a disc shape and receives the output torque of the drive mechanism 300 in its central region. One end of the transmission connecting rod 3520 is rotatably connected to the torque transmission member 3510, and this connection point is particularly at a certain distance from the rotation axis 301 of the drive mechanism 300. For example, one end of the transmission connecting rod 3520 is rotatably connected to a point near the edge of the torque transmission member 3510 (for example, see Figure 3E ). The other end of the transmission connecting rod 3520 is rotatably connected to the first transmission member 3400, for example, connected to the end of the rod-shaped main body 3450 of the first transmission member 3400 closer to the first vane 100. Thus, the interrelated motions of the transmission connection assembly 3500, the first transmission member 3400, and the guide member 3600 can follow the crank-rocker mechanism.

[0121] Next, with reference to Figure 3C and Figure 3D, specifically describe the working process of the active intake assembly according to the third embodiment of the present utility model.

[0122] In Figure 3C , the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 are in the closed position. For the first blade 100, the first pin 3125 is located on the left side of the pin member 121. For the second blade 200, the second pin 3225 is located on the right side of the pin member 221. At this time, also refer to Figure 3A , the rotatable connection point of the transmission connecting rod 3520 and the torque transmission member 3510 is located above the rotation axis 301 of the drive mechanism 300. To move the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 from the closed position to the open position, a driving force is provided to the drive mechanism 300. Referring to Figure 3C 's perspective, from Figures 3C to 3D , providing a driving force to the drive mechanism 300 causes the drive mechanism 300 to rotate clockwise, causing the torque transmission member 3510 to also rotate clockwise around the rotation axis 301. Due to the rotation of the torque transmission member 3510, the transmission connecting rod 3520 moves downward while rotating around its connection point with the first transmission member 3400. In other words, in the vertical direction, the transmission connecting rod 3520 drives the first transmission member 3400 to move downward. The first branch portion 3410 and the second branch portion 3420 of the first transmission member 3400 respectively push the first pin 3125 of the first blade 100 and the second pin 3225 of the second blade 200 downward, thereby driving the first blade 100 to rotate counterclockwise and the second blade 200 to rotate clockwise. Thus, both the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 rotate to the open position.

[0123] From Figures 3D to 3C , providing a driving force to the drive mechanism 300 causes the drive mechanism to rotate counterclockwise, causing the torque transmission member 3510 to also rotate counterclockwise around the rotation axis 301. Thereby, in the vertical direction, the transmission connecting rod 3520 drives the first transmission member 3420 to move upward. The first branch portion 3410 and the second branch portion 3420 of the first transmission member 3400 respectively push the first pin 3125 of the first blade 100 and the second pin 3225 of the second blade 200 upward, thereby driving the first blade 100 to rotate clockwise and the second blade 200 to rotate counterclockwise. Thus, both the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 rotate to the closed position.

[0124]

Fourth Embodiment

[0125] Figures 4A to 4DThe active intake assembly according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention is shown. The frame of the active intake assembly according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention, the drive mechanism 300, most of the structures of the first blade 100, and most of the structures of the second blade 200 may be the same as the corresponding parts in the second embodiment or the third embodiment. Therefore, the structural details of the above components will not be described in detail below, and only the differences between the active intake assembly of the fourth embodiment and the second embodiment or the third embodiment will be described below.

[0126] As Figures 4A to 4D shown, the first blade 100 is fixedly provided with a first pin 4125 on the first rotating arm 120, and the second blade 200 is fixedly provided with a second pin 4225 on the second rotating arm 220. On the other hand, the first transmission member 4400 has an elongated rod-like form, which includes a torque receiving portion two 4450 located in the middle section and a first elongated portion 4410 and a second elongated portion 4420 extending from the torque receiving portion two 4450 to both ends respectively. The first slideway 4430 is arranged in the first elongated portion 4410 along the length direction of the first elongated portion 4410, and the first slideway 4430 slidably receives the first pin 4125 of the first blade 100. The second slideway 4440 is arranged in the second elongated portion 4420 along the length direction of the second elongated portion 4420, and the second slideway 4440 slidably receives the second pin 4225 of the second blade 200. The first transmission member 4400 drives the rotation of the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 through the first pin 4125 and the second pin 4225.

[0127] As Figure 4A and Figure 4B shown, the first transmission member 4400 is configured to rotate around the transmission member rotation axis 4401, and the drive mechanism 300 is arranged on one side of the first transmission member 4400 along the transmission member rotation axis 4401 to transmit the output torque of the drive mechanism 300 to the first transmission member 4400. In other words, the rotation axis 301 of the drive mechanism 300 may coincide with the transmission member rotation axis 4401.

[0128] Next, referring to Figure 4C and Figure 4D , the working process of the active intake assembly according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described.

[0129] In Figure 4C , the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 are in the closed position. The first pin 4125 is approximately located in the upper left of the pin member 121 of the first blade 100, and the second pin 4225 is approximately located in the upper left of the pin member 221 of the second blade 200. In order to move the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 from the closed position to the open position, a driving force is provided to the drive mechanism 300. Referring to Figure 4CFrom the perspective of Figures 4C to 4D , a driving force is provided to the driving mechanism 300 to cause the driving mechanism 300 to rotate clockwise, causing the first transmission member 4400 to rotate clockwise about its rotation axis. The first extension portion 4410 of the first transmission member 4400 pushes the first pin 4125 substantially to the left, causing the first pin 4125 to move downward and to the left, and the first blade 100 rotates counterclockwise. The second extension portion 4420 of the first transmission member 4400 pushes the second pin 4225 substantially to the right, causing the second pin 4225 to move to the right, and the second blade 200 rotates clockwise. Thus, both the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 rotate to the open position.

[0130] From Figures 4D to 4C , a driving force is provided to the driving mechanism 300 to cause the driving mechanism 300 to rotate counterclockwise, causing the first transmission member 4400 to rotate counterclockwise about its rotation axis. The first extension portion 4410 of the first transmission member 4400 pushes the first pin 4125 substantially to the right, causing the first pin 4125 to move upward and to the right, and the first blade 100 rotates clockwise. The second extension portion 4420 of the first transmission member 4400 pushes the second pin 4225 substantially to the left, causing the second pin 4225 to move to the left, and the second blade 200 rotates counterclockwise. Thus, both the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 rotate to the closed position.

[0131]

Embodiment not shown

[0132] In addition, according to an embodiment not shown, the first transmission member 4400 is still a single component, which has a first slideway and a second slideway to receive the first pin 4125 of the first blade 100 and the second pin 4225 of the second blade 200 respectively. The first transmission member 4400 is still configured to rotate about the transmission member rotation axis 4401, and the driving mechanism 300 is arranged along the transmission member 4401 on one side of the first transmission member 4400 to transmit the output torque of the driving mechanism 300 to the first transmission member 4400.

[0133] However, different from the fourth embodiment, according to this embodiment not shown, the first transmission member 4400 has a disc-shaped main body. The central area of the disc-shaped main body is set as a torque receiving portion, the first slideway and the second slideway are arranged on the disc-shaped main body, both the first slideway and the second slideway are arc-shaped slideways, and extend along the same circumferential direction around the torque receiving portion. In addition, with reference to Figure 4C From the perspective of, in this embodiment not shown, when the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 are in the closed state, for the first blade 100, its first pin 4125 is arranged above and to the left of the pin member 121, and for the second blade 200, its second blade 4225 is arranged below and to the left of the pin member 221.

[0134] Specifically, in the embodiment not shown, the first slideway and the second slideway respectively have opposite first ends and second ends. When the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 are in the closed position, the first pin 4125 of the first blade 100 and the second pin 4225 of the second blade 200 are respectively located at the first end of the first slideway and the first end of the second slideway. When the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 are in the open position, the first pin 4125 and the second pin 4225 are respectively located at the second end of the first slideway and the second end of the second slideway. Moreover, from the first end to the second end of the first slideway, the distance from the points on the first slideway to the rotation axis 4401 of the transmission member increases. From the first end to the second end of the second slideway, the distance from the points on the second slideway to the rotation axis 4401 of the transmission member increases.

[0135] Thus, in the embodiment not shown, if it is necessary to move the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 from the closed position to the open position, a driving force can be provided to the driving mechanism 300 to cause the driving mechanism 300 to rotate. The driving mechanism 300 drives the first transmission member 400, which is mainly disk-shaped, to rotate, so that the first pin 4125 moves from the first end of the first slideway to the second end, and the second pin 4225 moves from the first end of the second slideway to the second end. Then, the first pin 4125 and the second pin 4225 move away from the rotation axis 4401 of the transmission member, causing the first blade 100 to rotate counterclockwise to the open position and the second blade 200 to rotate clockwise to the open position.

[0136] Correspondingly, in the embodiment not shown, if it is necessary to move the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 from the open position to the closed position, a driving force is provided to the driving mechanism 300 to cause the driving mechanism 300 to rotate. The driving mechanism 300 drives the first transmission member 400 to rotate, so that the first pin 4125 moves from the second end of the first slideway to the first end, and the second pin 4225 moves from the second end of the second slideway to the first end. Then, the first pin 4125 and the second pin 4225 move closer to the rotation axis 4401 of the transmission member, causing the first blade 100 to rotate clockwise to the closed position and the second blade 200 to rotate counterclockwise to the closed position.

[0137]

Fifth Embodiment

[0138] Figures 5A to 5D The active intake air assembly according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention is shown. The frame of the active intake air assembly according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention, the driving mechanism 300, most of the structures of the first blade 100 and most of the structures of the second blade 200 can be the same as the corresponding parts in the second embodiment, the third embodiment or the fourth embodiment. Therefore, the structural details of the above components will not be described in detail below. Only the differences between the active intake air assembly of the fifth embodiment and the second embodiment, the third embodiment or the fourth embodiment will be described below.

[0139] As shown Figures 5A to 5D , the first blade 100 is fixedly provided with a first pin 5125 on the first rotating arm 120, and the second blade 200 is fixedly provided with a second pin 5225 on the second rotating arm 220. On the other hand, the first transmission member 5400 includes an elongated rod-shaped main body 5410 and a branch portion 5420 that extends angularly from the rod-shaped main body 5410. The rod-shaped main body 5410 is provided with a second slideway 5440 at one end along its elongation direction. The branch portion 5420 is provided with a first slideway 5430 at one end along its elongation direction. The first pin 5125 of the first blade 100 is received in the first slideway 5430, and the second pin 5225 of the second blade 200 is received in the second slideway 5440. The first transmission member 5400 further includes a torque receiving portion three 5450, and the torque receiving portion three 5450 is located at one end of the rod-shaped main body 5410 opposite to the end where the second slideway 5440 is located, and receives the output torque of the driving mechanism 300.

[0140] As shown Figure 5A and Figure 5B , the first transmission member 5400 is configured to rotate about the transmission member rotation axis 5401, and the driving mechanism 300 is arranged along the transmission member rotation axis 5401 on the first side of the first transmission member 5400 to transmit the output torque of the driving mechanism 300 to the first transmission member 5400. In other words, the rotation axis 301 of the driving mechanism 300 may coincide with the transmission member rotation axis 5401.

[0141] Next, with reference to Figure 5C and Figure 5D , the working process of the active intake air assembly according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described.

[0142] In Figure 5C , the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 are in the closed position. The first pin 5125 is approximately located above the left of the pin member 121 of the first blade 100, and the second pin 5225 is approximately located above the left of the pin member 221 of the second blade 200. In order to move the first blade 100 and the second blade 200 from the closed position to the open position, a driving force is provided to the driving mechanism 300. With reference to Figure 5C 's perspective, from Figures 5C to 5D, a driving force is provided to the driving mechanism 300 to cause the driving mechanism 300 to rotate clockwise, causing the first transmission member 5400 to rotate clockwise about its rotation axis. The branched portion 5420 of the first transmission member 4400 pushes the first pin 4125 substantially downward, causing the first pin 4125 to move leftward and downward, and the first vane 100 rotates counterclockwise. The rod-shaped main body 5410 of the first transmission member 5400 pushes the second pin 5225 substantially rightward, causing the second pin 5225 to move rightward, and the second vane 200 rotates clockwise. Thus, both the first vane 100 and the second vane 200 rotate to the open position.

[0143] From Figures 5D to 5C , a driving force is provided to the driving mechanism 300 to cause the driving mechanism 300 to rotate counterclockwise, causing the first transmission member 5400 to rotate counterclockwise about its rotation axis. The branched portion 5420 of the first transmission member 5400 pushes the first pin 4125 substantially upward, causing the first pin 4125 to move rightward and upward, and the first vane 100 rotates clockwise. The rod-shaped main body 5410 of the first transmission member 5400 pushes the second pin 4225 substantially leftward, causing the second pin 4225 to move leftward, and the second vane 200 rotates counterclockwise. Thus, both the first vane 100 and the second vane 200 rotate to the closed position.

[0144] In addition, as can be seen from the drawings depicting the embodiments, the rotation angle of the first vane 100 from the closed position to the open position is different from the rotation angle of the second vane 200 from the closed position to the open position. For example, when the first vane 100 and the second vane 200 are in the closed position, the first main body 110 is arranged substantially vertically, and the second main body 210 is arranged obliquely to the vertical direction to meet the appearance design requirements of the vehicle. On the other hand, when the first vane 100 and the second vane 200 are in the open position, the first main body 110 and the second main body 210 are positioned substantially symmetrically with respect to the horizontal direction. Thus, when designing the appearance of the active intake assembly according to requirements, the rotation angles and relative rotation speeds of the first vane and the second vane can also be adjusted, for example, by adjusting the positions of the rotatably connected points between the components, so as to adjust the intake control ability of the active intake assembly.

[0145] In the above, the exemplary embodiments of the active intake assembly and the vehicle proposed by the present utility model have been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments. However, those skilled in the art can understand that, without departing from the concept of the present utility model, various modifications and variations can be made to the above specific embodiments, and various combinations of the technical features and structures proposed by the present utility model can be made without exceeding the protection scope of the present utility model.
