[0037] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0038] The embodiment of the present application provides an air guide mechanism for an air conditioner, which can be an integrated air conditioner or a split air conditioner. For example, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 5 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the air conditioner provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 for Figure 1 The exploded view of the air conditioner shown, Figure 3 for Figure 1 A cross-sectional view of the air conditioner shown, Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the air conditioner provided in an embodiment of the present application in another state. Figure 5 for Figure 4 The air conditioner 10 includes a main body 100 and an air guide mechanism 200. The main body 100 is provided with an air outlet 110. The air guide mechanism 200 is adapted to be mounted at the air outlet 110 on the main body 100. It should be noted that when the air conditioner 10 is a split-type air conditioner, the main body is the main body of the indoor unit of the air conditioner.
[0039] The air guide mechanism 200 includes a first air guide plate 210 and a second air guide plate 220 movably connected to the main body 100. The first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 are respectively provided with a plurality of soft air holes 230. The first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 are slidably connected. When the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 slide to a first relative position, the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 are stacked and cover the air outlet 110. When the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 slide to a second relative position, the overlapping area of the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 is reduced, and the two cooperate to form a soft air cavity 240 on the outside of the main body. The air outlet 110, the soft air cavity 240 and the soft air holes 230 are sequentially connected.
[0040] For example, Figure 1 The figure shows the state where the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 reach the first relative position. Figure 4 The figure shows a state where the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 have reached a second relative position.
[0041] Preferably, the soft wind holes 230 are long waist-shaped holes, and the multiple soft wind holes 230 are evenly distributed over the entire area of the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 .
[0042] As can be understood, the first and second air guide plates 210, 220, each having soft air holes 230, can decelerate and guide the circulating air, thereby achieving a soft and uniform wind effect. In actual use, the air blown by the fan inside the air conditioner 10 is reduced in speed and flows softly after reaching the first and second air guide plates 210, 220 at the air outlet 110. The air then flows evenly through the multiple soft air holes 230 on the air guide plates, ensuring that the air blown into the room by the air conditioner does not directly blow on the human body.
[0043] In addition, as the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 slide from the first relative position to the second relative position, the overlapping area between the two gradually decreases, and the cavity volume of the soft wind cavity 240 gradually increases, and the soft wind area also gradually increases; conversely, as the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 slide from the second relative position to the first relative position, the overlapping area between the two gradually increases, and the cavity volume of the soft wind cavity 240 gradually decreases, and the soft wind area also gradually decreases. It can be understood that by controlling the relative movement of the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220, the soft wind area and the air outlet range of the air guide mechanism 200 can be adjusted.
[0044] The air guide mechanism 200 provided in the embodiment of the present application, on the one hand, can make the air supply of the air conditioner soft and uniform by adding a first air guide plate 210 and a second air guide plate 220 with a soft wind function at the air outlet 110, thereby avoiding the air conditioner 10 from blowing directly on the human body and causing discomfort to the human body; on the other hand, by controlling the relative movement of the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220, the area and range of the soft wind supply of the air guide mechanism 200 can be adjusted, so that targeted soft wind supply can be carried out according to the actual needs of the user, thereby improving the user experience.
[0045] In some embodiments, when the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 slide to the first relative position, the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 are stacked to close the plurality of soft air holes 230, thereby sealing the air outlet 110. In actual use, when the air conditioner stops discharging air in response to a shutdown command, the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 are controlled to slide to the first relative position to seal the air outlet and prevent dust from entering.
[0046] In other embodiments, Figure 1-Figure 3When the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 slide to the first relative position, the soft air holes 230 on the first air guide plate 210 communicate with the soft air holes 230 on the second air guide plate 220, so that the air conditioner can output soft air. Preferably, when the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 slide to the first relative position, the soft air holes 230 on the first air guide plate 210 and the soft air holes 230 on the second air guide plate 220 are at least partially offset.
[0047] It can be understood that the soft wind holes 230 on the first air guide plate 210 and the soft wind holes 230 on the second air guide plate 220 are staggered and can form a microporous structure when connected. In this way, the air conditioner 10 can achieve breeze supply, avoid wind blowing directly on the human body, and improve the comfort brought by the air supply.
[0048] In some embodiments, the first air deflector 210 is slidably connected to the second air deflector 220. When the first air deflector 210 moves, it drives the second air deflector 220, causing the second air deflector 220 to move relative to the main body. In this way, the second air deflector 220 can be driven in conjunction with the first air deflector 210, eliminating the need for a separate drive element to drive the second air deflector 220. This helps reduce structural complexity, saves costs, and simplifies the control of the first and second air deflectors 210 and 220.
[0049] Exemplarily, the first air deflector 210 and the second air deflector 220 are both curved plates, and preferably, the curvature of the two is the same. The first air deflector 210 is rotatably connected to the first side wall 111 of the main body 100 for forming the air outlet 110, and the second air deflector 220 is rotatably connected to the second side wall 112 of the main body 100 for forming the air outlet 110, with the first side wall 111 and the second side wall 112 facing each other. The first air deflector 210 and the second air deflector 220 rotate to reach a first relative position and a second relative position. One of the second air deflector 220 and the first air deflector 210 is provided with a guide rail and the other with a slider, and the slider cooperates with the slide groove so that the first air deflector 210 and the second air deflector 220 are slidably connected. For example, the second air deflector 220 is provided with a first slide groove 221 on both sides in the longitudinal direction, and the first air deflector 210 is provided with a first slider 211 protruding from both ends in the longitudinal direction to cooperate with the first slide groove 221. In some embodiments, the first sliding block 211 may be slidably connected to the first sliding groove 221 via a ball or a roller to improve the relative sliding smoothness between the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 .
[0050] For further information, see Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5The air guide mechanism 200 further includes a first driving member (not shown) and a first swing arm 250. The first driving member is used to be arranged in the main body 100; one end of the first swing arm 250 is connected to the first driving member, and the other end is connected to the first air guide plate 210. The first driving member drives the first air guide plate 210 to rotate through the first swing arm 250. The first swing arm 250 is, for example, U-shaped. When the first swing arm 250 rotates, it drives the first air guide plate 210 to extend outside the main body 100, avoiding interference between itself and the first air guide plate 210 and the outer shell of the main body 100, so that the first air guide plate 210 has a larger rotation angle, so that the width of the first air guide plate 210 can be designed to be larger, thereby increasing the soft wind supply area when the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 move to the second relative position.
[0051] The air guide mechanism 200 further includes a third air guide plate 260, a second driving member (not shown), and a second swing arm 270. The third air guide plate 260 is disposed at the air outlet 110 within the main body 100 and is configured to rotatably change the airflow direction of the air conditioner 10. When the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 slide to a first relative position, the third air guide plate 260, the first air guide plate 210, and the second air guide plate 220 are sequentially arranged along the airflow direction. Preferably, when the air conditioner is turned on, the third air guide plate 260 rotates to adjust the air outlet direction of the air conditioner; when the air conditioner is turned off, the third air guide plate 260 moves to the third relative position, and the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 slide to the first relative position, so that the third air guide plate 260, the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 are stacked in sequence along the air outlet direction, and the third air guide plate 260 closes the soft wind holes 230 on the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220 to close the air outlet 110.
[0052] The second driving member is used to be set on the main body 100; one end of the second swing rod 270 is connected to the third air deflector 260, and the other end is connected to the second driving member. The second driving member drives the third air deflector 260 to rotate through the second swing rod 270.
[0053] In some embodiments, the air guide mechanism 200 further includes a third driving member (not shown) and a third swing arm 280. The third driving member is configured to be disposed within the main body 100. One end of the third swing arm 280 is connected to the third driving member, and the other end is connected to the second driving member. The third driving member drives the second driving member to move via the third swing arm 280, thereby driving the third air guide plate 260 to at least partially extend into the soft wind chamber 240. It will be appreciated that by driving the third air guide plate 260 to extend outside the main body 100 through the air outlet 110 via the third driving member, it is possible to prevent the third air guide plate 260 from interfering with the housing of the main body 100 when rotating to adjust the air guide direction, thereby limiting the rotation angle of the third air guide plate 260, thereby increasing the air guide angle of the third air guide plate 260.
[0054] The first driving member, the second driving member and the third driving member are, for example, motors or other driving devices.
[0055] The air guide mechanism 200 provided in the embodiment of the present application, on the one hand, can make the air supply of the air conditioner soft and uniform by adding a first air guide plate 210 and a second air guide plate 220 with a soft wind function at the air outlet 110, thereby avoiding the air conditioner 10 from blowing directly on the human body and causing discomfort to the human body; on the other hand, by controlling the relative movement of the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220, the area and range of the soft wind supply of the air guide mechanism 200 can be adjusted, so that targeted soft wind supply can be carried out according to the actual needs of the user, thereby improving the user experience.
[0056] The present application also provides Figure 1-Figure 5 The air conditioner 10 shown includes a main body 100 and the above-mentioned air guide mechanism 200 . The main body 100 is provided with an air outlet 110 . The air guide mechanism 200 is suitable for being installed at the air outlet 110 on the main body 100 .
[0057] The air conditioner 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application, on the one hand, can make the air supply of the air conditioner soft and uniform by adding a first air guide plate 210 and a second air guide plate 220 with a soft wind function at the air outlet 110, thereby avoiding the air conditioner 10 blowing directly on the human body and causing discomfort to the human body; on the other hand, by controlling the relative movement of the first air guide plate 210 and the second air guide plate 220, the area and range of the soft wind supply of the air guide mechanism 200 can be adjusted, so that targeted soft wind supply can be carried out according to the actual needs of the user, thereby improving the user experience.
