Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile air-conditioning air outlets, in particular to a manual and automatic integrated automobile air outlet. Background Art

[0002] Under the existing background, the automobile air-conditioning air outlet is one of the important interior parts of an automobile, generally arranged in the cab of the automobile or obliquely above the seating position. When it is necessary to adjust the temperature inside the automobile, the air conditioner can be turned on for refrigeration or heating, and the air will blow out from the automobile air-conditioning air outlet. Automobile air outlets are mainly divided into two categories from the aspect of adjustment types: traditional manual adjustment air outlets and electric adjustment air outlets.

[0003] The traditional manual adjustment air outlet can arbitrarily adjust the blowing direction of the air conditioner by hand. The advantage is that it can quickly and accurately adjust the blowing direction of the air conditioner. However, when there is a need for air outlet at the rear row / ceiling air outlet, the driver needs to operate the screen to realize the blowing requirement, which poses a safety hazard during driving. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In an embodiment of the present application, by providing a manual and automatic integrated automobile air outlet, an electric signal is transmitted to an actuator for execution through an operation button control end or a touch screen. The actuator drives a drive shaft and a drive gear coaxially arranged with the drive shaft to rotate, thereby driving a transmission gear engaged with the drive gear to rotate. The transmission gear drives a guide vane group to perform a rotational movement through a mounting column coaxially arranged therewith, so as to realize a sweeping function.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the utility model provides the following technical solution: A manual and automatic integrated automobile air outlet, comprising

[0006] A screen control end, communicatively connected to a system control end to automatically control the air outlet direction of the air outlet;

[0007] A housing assembly, inside which a plurality of guide vane groups hinged to the housing assembly are arranged;

[0008] A micro motion control button, externally provided on one side of the housing assembly, and communicatively connected to a button control end to manually control the air outlet direction of the air outlet;

[0009] An actuator, arranged on one side of the guide vane group, and one end of the actuator is provided with a wire harness group respectively signal-connected to the system control end and the button control end;

[0010] A transmission assembly, arranged between the guide vane group and the actuator. A mounting column is arranged on one side of the guide vane group close to the transmission assembly, and a drive shaft is arranged on one side of the actuator. The transmission assembly includes a transmission gear coaxially arranged with the mounting column and a drive gear coaxially arranged with the drive shaft, and the transmission gear is engaged with the drive gear.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present utility model are as follows:

[0012] Based on the existing background, the present invention combines traditional manual adjustment with an electronically controlled air outlet. It can not only automatically control the air outlet direction through the screen control terminal but also manually control the air outlet direction by toggling the micro control button externally provided on one side of the housing assembly, freely switching between modes;

[0013] Operating the micro control button transmits an electrical signal through the button control terminal or operating the screen control terminal transmits an electrical signal through the system control terminal to the actuator for execution. The principles are the same and do not conflict with each other. This not only ensures the function of freely and intuitively adjusting the air guide vane group but also avoids the malfunction problems caused by the disorder of the air outlet position due to manual operation and electronic control operation;

[0014] The actuator drives the drive shaft to rotate, thereby causing the drive gear coaxially arranged with the drive shaft to rotate. The transmission gear meshes with the drive gear, thereby driving the transmission gear to rotate. The transmission gear drives the air guide vane group to perform a rotational movement through the coaxially arranged mounting post to achieve the air sweeping function.

[0015] As an improvement, the micro control button can be toggled in six directions, namely, front-back, left-right, and up-down, relative to the housing assembly. Users can easily toggle the button to any direction according to their specific needs to achieve the most comfortable air outlet angle. This design eliminates the cumbersome adjustment steps, and users can quickly adjust the air outlet direction with a simple toggle.

[0016] As an improvement, the housing assembly includes a mounting main body. The air guide vane groups are arranged on both sides of the mounting main body, and a connecting shaft is arranged between the two air guide vane groups. The mounting main body is provided with a connecting through hole corresponding to the connecting shaft. The connecting shaft passes through the connecting through hole to connect the two air guide vane groups. The design of the connecting shaft and the connecting through hole between the two air guide vane groups helps to maintain the relative position and angle between the vane groups, thereby ensuring the stability and consistency of the air guiding effect.

[0017] As an improvement, the housing assembly further includes mounting plates arranged on both sides of the mounting main body. A plurality of hinge posts are arranged on one side of the air guide vane group close to the mounting plate. The mounting plate is provided with hinge holes corresponding to the hinge posts in a scattered manner. One side of the hinge post is hinged to the hinge hole. The design of the hinge post and the hinge hole makes the installation and disassembly of the air guide vane group more convenient. During the installation process, the hinge post can be aligned with the hinge hole and gently rotated to achieve fixation; during disassembly, no complex tools or steps are required, and the air guide vane group can be easily removed by overcoming the hinge force.

[0018] As an improvement, positioning blocks are provided on one side of the mounting plate close to the mounting body and on one side of the mounting body close to the mounting plate. The positioning blocks are arranged corresponding to the hinge columns and abut against the upper ends of the hinge columns. The design of the positioning blocks provides additional support and limit for the hinge columns, effectively preventing the hinge columns from shaking or shifting during installation and use. This stability is crucial for ensuring the correct installation and stable operation of the air guiding vane group.

[0019] As an improvement, the housing assembly further includes a left housing and a right housing. The front and rear ends of the mounting body and the upper end of the mounting plate are all snap - connected to the left housing and the right housing. Due to the snap - connection method, when internal components need to be maintained or replaced, the housing can be easily opened and closed.

[0020] As an improvement, on one side of the left housing close to the upper end of the right housing, a housing slot is provided, and an embedding groove is provided at the upper end of the housing slot. On one side of the right housing close to the upper end of the left housing, a housing block is provided, and an embedding block is provided at the upper end of the housing block. The embedding block is inserted into the embedding groove, and at the same time, the housing slot is snap - connected to the housing block. The design of the embedding block and the embedding groove ensures that the left housing and the right housing can be accurately aligned when snap - connected through the housing slot and the housing block.

[0021] As an improvement, on one side of the left housing close to the lower end of the right housing, a slot is provided, and on one side of the right housing close to the lower end of the left housing, a plug corresponding to the slot is provided. The plug is inserted into the slot. The upper ends of the left housing and the right housing are snap - connected through the housing slot and the housing block, and at the same time, the lower ends of the left housing and the right housing are fixedly connected by inserting the plug into the slot, ensuring that the left housing and the right housing form a solid whole at the connection, improving the structural stability of the entire housing assembly.

[0022] As an improvement, on one side of the transmission gear close to the air guiding vane group, a transmission column is provided. An installation hole is provided inside the installation column, and the transmission column is arranged inside the installation hole. A limit block is provided at the upper end of the transmission column, and a limit groove is provided on the side wall of the installation hole for the limit block. The limit block is slidably arranged inside the limit groove. The sliding fit between the limit block and the limit groove enhances the accuracy of transmission. The limit block being slidably arranged inside the limit groove can prevent the transmission column from shifting, ensuring that it always maintains the correct position during transmission, thereby avoiding the accumulation of transmission errors.

[0023] As an improvement, a transmission column block is provided at one end of the transmission column, and an installation column slot is provided on the side wall of the installation column for the block. The transmission column block is snap - connected to the installation column slot. The snap - connection design between the transmission column block and the installation column slot effectively limits the movement of the transmission column inside the installation column, and both axial and radial movements are well controlled. This limitation ensures the stability of the transmission column during transmission, reducing transmission errors caused by shaking or misalignment. Description of the Drawings
