For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood through specific circumstances.
[0021] The present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and in conjunction with embodiments.
[0022] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , a swing structure of an electric fan, comprising a fan housing 1, a wind outlet cover 2 is rotatably connected to the fan housing 1, a motor 3 is connected to the inner side of the wind outlet cover 2, a fan blade is rotatably connected to the motor 3, a driving pulley 4 is fixedly connected to the rotor of the motor 3, a driven pulley 5 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the fan housing 1, a transmission belt 6 is arranged between the driving pulley 4 and the driven pulley 5, a tensioning mechanism 7 for tensioning the transmission belt 6 is arranged on the fan housing 1, a driving mechanism 12 for driving the wind outlet cover 2 to swing is arranged at the bottom of the fan housing 1, and the driving mechanism 12 is in transmission connection with the driven pulley 5.
[0023] The fan applied in this application is a kind of desktop fan for office use, which is an existing fan. The fan blade is driven by a motor 3 to rotate. Air enters from the side of the fan housing 1 and blows out from the front side. The wind direction is relatively fixed and the wind force is large, but there is no mechanism for up and down swinging for driving. Through the structure disclosed in this application, swinging on the vertical plane can be realized, which is not equivalent to the horizontal swinging mechanism of the existing fan. When in use, by pressing the tensioning mechanism 7 inward, the internal transmission belt 6 can be tensioned to realize power transmission, and the mechanism can drive the air outlet hood 2 to swing.
[0024] A wind guiding plate is fixedly connected to the air outlet hood 2, an air inlet partition plate is fixedly connected to the side of the fan housing 1, and a support foot pad is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fan housing 1. The wind guiding plate is used to guide the air discharged from the air outlet hood 2. The air inlet partition plate prevents larger sundries from entering the fan housing 1 through the side of the device. The support foot pad is made of anti-slip silica gel and other materials, which can ensure the stable placement of the device.
[0025] The tensioning mechanism 7 includes a pressing rod 8 slidably connected to the fan housing 1. An extrusion head 9 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the pressing rod 8. The extrusion head 9 is magnetically matched with the fan housing 1. A tensioning wheel 10 is fixedly connected to the inner end of the pressing rod 8. The tensioning wheel 10 is in extrusion fit with the transmission belt 6. A first spring 11 for resetting is fixedly connected between the extrusion head 9 and the fan housing 1.
[0026] The tensioning mechanism 7 realizes tensioning through the position of the pressing rod 8. Other tensioning mechanisms can also be used, as long as the tensioning of the transmission belt 6 can be realized. In this actual example, by pressing the extrusion head 9, the extrusion head 9 moves inward, and then drives the tensioning wheel 10 to press the transmission belt 6 to realize the tensioning of the transmission belt 6, and then power transmission can be realized. A magnet is fixedly connected to the fan housing 1, and a magnet is also fixedly connected to the extrusion head 9. The two are mutually attracted. After pressing, the position can be fixed through the magnetic attraction of the magnets. In addition, the pressing head 9 can also adopt a rotatable mechanism, and then can be screwed onto the fan housing 1 by means of threaded connection. The first spring 11 provides spring force, and can pop up the extrusion head 9 after the extrusion head 9 is separated from the fan housing 1, on the one hand to prevent falling, and on the other hand to make the fan in a state of not shaking its head.
[0027] The driving mechanism 12 includes an incomplete gear 13 coaxially fixed with the driven pulley 5. A rack 14 is slidably connected to the bottom of the fan housing 1. The incomplete gear 13 is meshed with the rack 14. A fork 15 is fixedly connected above the rack 14. A driven dial rod 16 is fixedly connected to the air outlet hood 2. The fork 15 is matched with the driven dial rod 16. A second spring 17 for resetting is fixedly connected to the rack 14.
[0028] This embodiment provides a specific driving mechanism. Through the synchronous rotation between the incomplete gear 13 and the driven pulley 5, after the tensioning mechanism 7 is tensioned, the incomplete gear 13 continues to rotate, and then drives the rack 14 to reciprocate. When the toothless part of the incomplete gear 13 cooperates with the rack 14, reset is achieved. At this time, the second spring 17 provides the reset force for the rack 14. During the reciprocating movement of the rack 14, the fork 15 is driven to move left and right, then the driven lever 16 is driven to move synchronously, and the air outlet hood 2 is driven to shake its head in the vertical plane.
[0029] The central angle corresponding to the toothless part of the incomplete gear 13 is not less than 90°.
