[0046] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended only to explain the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0047] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples for realizing different structures of the present invention. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present invention, the components and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are merely examples and are not intended to limit the present invention. In addition, the present invention may repeat reference numbers and / or letters in different examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity and does not in itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed. In addition, the present invention provides examples of various specific processes and materials, but a person of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate the applicability of other processes and / or the use of other materials.

[0048] In the description of the embodiments of this application, the term "and / or" is simply a description of the association relationship between associated objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent the following three situations: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this document generally indicates that the associated objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0049] The following describes the air outlet diversion assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein the solid arrows in the drawings, except for the dimension marks, indicate the direction of airflow.

[0050] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the air outlet diversion assembly 100 includes an air duct structure 1, which has an air duct 10 therein. The air duct 10 has a first air duct wall 11 and a second air duct wall 12 disposed opposite to each other. It is understood that the air duct 10 also has an air inlet 10a and an air outlet 10b. Air flow can flow from the air inlet 10a into the air duct 10 and out through the air outlet 10b.

[0051] The air outlet diversion assembly 100 also includes a diversion structure 2, which includes a diversion block 21 and a diversion plate 22. The diversion block is arranged at the air outlet 10b of the air duct 10, and the diversion block 21 is spaced apart from the first air duct wall 11 to define a first flow channel 10c. The diversion block 21 is spaced apart from the second air duct wall 12 to define a second flow channel 10d. The airflow in the air duct 10 can be distributed by the diversion structure 2 to be diverted to the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d, so that the airflow in the air duct 10 can be delivered through the first flow channel 10c and / or the second flow channel 10d.

[0052] The diverter plate 22 is rotatably connected to the diverter block 21, and the diverter plate 22 has a switchable first state (such as Figure 4 As shown), the second state (as shown Figure 5 As shown) and the third state (as Figure 6-Figure 9 In the first state, the diverter plate 22 opens the first flow channel 10c and is suitable for closing the second flow channel 10d. In this case, the airflow in the air duct 10 can be delivered through the first flow channel 10c but cannot be delivered through the second flow channel 10d. In the second state, the diverter plate 22 opens the second flow channel 10d and closes the first flow channel 10c. In this case, the airflow in the air duct 10 can be delivered through the second flow channel 10d but cannot be delivered through the first flow channel 10c. In the third state, the diverter plate 22 opens the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d. In this case, the airflow in the air duct 10 can be delivered through the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d respectively.

[0053] For example, in the first state, the free end of the diverter plate 22 can directly abut the second air duct wall 12, or the free end of the diverter plate 22 can indirectly abut the second air duct wall 12 through other components (such as the guide member 31 described later) to close the second flow channel 10d, and the diverter plate 22 and the diverter block 21 are spaced apart from the first air duct wall 11, and all the airflow in the air duct 10 can flow to the first flow channel 10c and be sent out through the first flow channel 10c; in the second state, the free end of the diverter plate 22 can directly abut the first air duct wall 11, or the free end of the diverter plate 22 can indirectly abut the second air duct wall 12 through other components (such as the guide member 31 described later) to close the second flow channel 10d. The other components are indirectly in contact with the first air duct wall 11 to close the first flow channel 10c, and the diverter plate 22 and the diverter block 21 are both spaced apart from the second air duct wall 12. All the airflow in the air duct 10 can flow to the second flow channel 10d and be sent out through the second flow channel 10d; in the third state, the diverter plate 22 and the diverter block 21 are both spaced apart between the first air duct wall 11 and the second air duct wall 12. Part of the airflow in the air duct 10 can flow to the first flow channel 10c and be sent out through the first flow channel 10c, and another part of the airflow can flow to the second flow channel 10d and be sent out through the second flow channel 10d.

[0054] As can be seen, when the diverter plate 22 is in different states, the air distribution method of the air outlet diverter assembly 100 varies, and the corresponding air supply channels vary, thereby enabling the air outlet diverter assembly 100 to have different air supply areas and air supply ranges. It is understood that the air outlet direction of the first flow channel 10c and the air outlet direction of the second flow channel 10d can be the same or different. Moreover, regardless of whether the air outlet directions of the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d are the same, in the third state, the diverter structure 2 can distribute the airflow within the air duct 10 to the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d, thereby improving the air supply range.

[0055] It can be understood that in the above scheme of the present application, the rotation of the diverter plate 22 can be used to achieve switching between the first state, the second state and the third state, so as to change the air supply area and air supply range of the air outlet diverter assembly 100, so that the air outlet diverter assembly 100 can have at least three different air supply modes; at the same time, in the switching process of any two of the first state, the second state and the third state, since the air volume of the first flow channel 10c changes from no wind to the corresponding maximum air volume and the air volume of the second air duct 10 changes from no wind to the corresponding maximum air volume through the rotation of the diverter plate 22, the rotation of the diverter plate 22 can also adjust the ratio of the air volume of the first flow channel 10c to the air volume of the second flow channel 10d, which is convenient for realizing a variety of proportional distribution of the air volume of the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d. For example, it is convenient to set the diverter plate 22 to have multiple third states, which is conducive to realizing any proportional distribution of the air volume of the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d, thereby improving the applicability and practicality of the air outlet diverter assembly 100.

[0056] For example, in the first state, the air volume in the first flow channel 10c is its maximum air volume, and in the second state, the air volume in the second flow channel 10d is its maximum air volume. As an example: during the process of the diverter plate 22 switching from the first state to the second state, the air flow area of ​​the second flow channel 10d gradually increases, and the air flow area of ​​the first flow channel 10c gradually decreases, so that the air volume of the second flow channel 10d can be increased from no wind to its maximum air volume, and the air volume of the first flow channel 10c can be reduced from its maximum air volume to no wind. During the process of the diverter plate 22 switching from the first state to the third state, the air flow area of ​​the second flow channel 10d gradually increases, and the air flow area of ​​the first flow channel 10c gradually decreases, so that the air volume of the second flow channel 10d can be increased from no wind to its maximum air volume, and the air volume of the first flow channel 10c can be reduced from its maximum air volume to no wind. The airflow area of ​​the first flow channel 10d gradually increases, while the airflow area of ​​the first flow channel 10c gradually decreases, so that the air volume of the second flow channel 10d can be increased from no wind to wind, and the air volume of the first flow channel 10c can be reduced from its maximum air volume to an intermediate air volume; in the process of the diverter plate 22 switching from the second state to the third state, the airflow area of ​​the first flow channel 10c gradually increases, while the airflow area of ​​the second flow channel 10d gradually decreases, so that the air volume of the second flow channel 10d can be reduced from its maximum air volume to an intermediate air volume, and the air volume of the first flow channel 10c can be increased from no wind to wind. Optionally, the airflow area of ​​the first flow channel 10c can be the flow area between the first air duct wall 11 and the free end of the diverter plate 22, and the airflow area of ​​the second flow channel 10d can be the flow area between the second air duct wall 12 and the free end of the diverter plate 22.

[0057] It can be understood that the diverter plate 22 in the third state can be located between the diverter plate 22 in the first state and the diverter plate 22 in the second state; for example, the first state can be the limit state of the forward rotation of the diverter plate 22, and the second state can be the limit state of the reverse rotation of the diverter plate 22. During the switching process between the first state and the second state, the diverter plate 22 will pass through the third state.

[0058] like Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 10 、 Figure 12-14 As shown, the air outlet diversion assembly 100 further includes a guide structure 3, the guide structure 3 includes a guide member 31, the guide member 31 is movably connected to the air duct structure 1, and the guide member 31 has a switchable fourth state and a fifth state. Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 10 、 Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown), the side of the guide member 31 facing away from the first air duct wall 11 is attached to the second air duct wall 12; in the fifth state (as shown Figure 4 and Figure 12As shown), the side of the guide member 31 facing away from the first air duct wall 11 is spaced apart from the second air duct wall 12, and the guide member 31 is adapted to cooperate with the diverter plate 22 in the first state to close the second flow channel 10d.

[0059] It can be seen that the air guide 31 in the fourth state can cooperate with the diverter plate 22 in the second state to achieve air supply in the second flow channel 10d and no air supply in the first flow channel 10c. The air guide 31 in the fourth state can cooperate with the diverter plate 22 in the third state to achieve air supply in the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d respectively. The air guide 31 in the fifth state can cooperate with the diverter plate 22 in the first state to achieve air supply in the first flow channel 10c and no air supply in the second flow channel 10d. Obviously, the air guide 31 in the fourth state can be used to achieve air supply in the second flow channel 10d, or to achieve air supply in the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d respectively. The air guide 31 in the fifth state can be used to achieve air supply in the first flow channel 10c.

[0060] In the above solution, the guide member 31 in the fourth state can be spaced apart from the diverter plate 22 in the second state or the third state, and the guide member 31 in the fourth state is spaced apart from the first air duct wall 11, while the guide member 31 in the fifth state can cooperate with the diverter plate 22 in the first state to jointly achieve the closure of the second flow channel 10d, and the guide member 31 in the fifth state is also spaced apart from the first air duct wall 11. In other words, the switching of the guide member 31 between the fourth state and the fifth state can be used to achieve the opening and closing of the second flow channel 10d without affecting the opening and closing of the first flow channel 10c by the diverter plate 22. Obviously, the provision of the guide member 31 with the fourth state and the fifth state allows the guide member 31 to cooperate with the diverter plate 22 to achieve air supply in either or both of the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d, so that the air outlet diverter assembly 100 has at least three air outlet modes.

[0061] Thus, the arrangement of the guide member 31 eliminates the need for the diverter plate 22 to independently realize the switching of the first flow channel 10c and the switching of the second flow channel 10d, which is conducive to shortening the length of the diverter plate 22, facilitating the reduction of material consumption and costs, and improving the problem that the diverter plate 22 alone has the function of switching the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d at the same time, which easily makes the air duct 10 longer, thereby shortening the path of the air duct 10 and reducing the wind resistance of the air duct structure 1; at the same time, since the diverter plate 22 is shorter, it is conducive to reducing the impact of the diverter plate 22 on the air duct 10, is conducive to further reducing the wind resistance of the air outlet diversion assembly 100; in addition, because the diversion plate 22 has the switching first flow channel 10c and the switching second flow channel 10d at the same time, the requirements for the position of the rotation center axis of the diversion plate 22 between the first air duct wall 11 and the second air duct wall 12 are relatively high. The above-mentioned scheme of the present application is conducive to reducing the position requirements of the rotation center axis of the separation plate 22, facilitating the improvement of the position flexibility of the diversion structure 2, and helping to improve the applicability and practicality of the air outlet diversion assembly 100.

[0062] It can be understood that the embodiment of the present application does not impose any specific limitation on the movement of the air guide member 31 relative to the air duct structure 1 .

[0063] According to the air outlet diversion component 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, the air outlet diversion component 100 has a plurality of different air supply modes, which is convenient for realizing different air supply areas and different air supply ranges, and can realize the distribution of the air volume of the first flow channel 10c and the air volume of the second flow channel 10d, and is convenient for realizing differentiated air supply to different areas by rotating the diversion plate 22, so as to meet the differentiated needs of human bodies in different areas, thereby improving the applicability of the air outlet diversion component 100; at the same time, the air outlet diversion component 100 can realize differentiated air supply using one air duct 10, and the wind resistance of the diversion plate 22 is relatively small in any state, the structure is simple, and the practicality is good. In addition, there is no need for the diverter plate 22 to independently realize the switching of the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d, which is beneficial to shortening the length of the diverter plate 22, reducing the amount of materials and costs, and shortening the path of the air duct 10, reducing the obstruction of the diverter plate 22 to the air flow, and reducing the wind resistance of the air duct structure 1. At the same time, it is beneficial to reduce the position requirements of the central axis of rotation of the separation plate 22, thereby improving the position flexibility of the diverter structure 2 and improving the applicability and practicality of the air outlet diverter assembly 100.

[0064] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the thickness of the diverter plate 22 gradually increases from the free end of the diverter plate 22 toward the end of the diverter plate 22 connected to the diverter block 21. For example, along the direction of the airflow, the diverter plate 22 can have a free end and a connecting end. The connecting end is rotatably connected to the diverter block 21, and the free end can rotate around the rotation axis of the connecting section. The free end is not connected to the diverter block 21, then the free end can be formed as the upstream end of the diverter plate 22, and the connecting end is formed as the downstream end of the diverter plate 22. The airflow trend is to flow from the free end of the diverter plate 22 toward the connecting section.

[0065] Thus, when the diverter plate 22 is in the first state or the second state, since the diverter plate 22 is directly or indirectly in contact with the wall of the corresponding air duct 10, at this time, air flows through one side of the thickness of the diverter plate 22, and the free end of the diverter plate 22 is located on the upstream side, the thickness of the diverter plate 22 is gradually increased from the free end of the diverter plate 22 toward the end of the diverter plate 22 connected to the diverter block 21, which is conducive to reducing the thickness of the diverter plate 22 protruding from the inside of the corresponding flow channel in the first state or the second state, so as to reduce the occupation of the internal space of the corresponding flow channel by the diverter plate 22, thereby facilitating the reduction of the internal space of the corresponding flow channel in the first state or the second state. The diverter plate 22 blocks the airflow and reduces the wind resistance; when the diverter plate 22 is in the third state, one side of the thickness of the diverter plate 22 corresponds to the first flow channel 10c, and the other side of the thickness of the diverter plate 22 corresponds to the second flow channel 10d, then air flows through the thickness of the diverter plate 22 on both sides, and the airflow in the air duct 10 is distributed at the free end of the diverter plate 22, then the thickness of the diverter plate 22 is set to gradually increase from the free end of the diverter plate 22 toward the end of the diverter plate 22 connected to the diverter block 21, on the premise that the diverter plate 22 can distribute the airflow, it is beneficial to reduce the obstruction of the airflow by the diverter plate 22 and reduce the wind resistance.

[0066] In addition, the above-mentioned thickness setting of the diverter plate 22 can also make it easier for the diverter plate 22 in the third state to make the directions of the airflow flowing to the first flow channel 10c and the airflow flowing to the second flow channel 10d different after distribution, so as to achieve a good match with the diverter plate 22 in the third state to achieve simultaneous air discharge from the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d to achieve a larger air supply range.

[0067] In the embodiments of the present application, "upstream" and "downstream" both refer to the relationship in the direction of airflow. If component A is located upstream of component B, it means that the airflow in the air conditioner 200 first flows through component A and then through component B. Similarly, if component A is located downstream of component B, it means that the airflow in the surface air conditioner 200 first flows through component B and then through component A.

[0068] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 11As shown, the free end of the diverter plate 22 is constructed into a pointed shape, so the free end of the diverter plate 22 forms a sharp angle, which is beneficial to further reduce the obstruction of the free end of the diverter plate 22 in different states to the air flow in the air duct 10, reduce wind resistance, and facilitate the smooth distribution of all airflow in the air duct 10 to the first flow channel 10c, or the smooth distribution of all airflow to the second flow channel 10d, or the distribution of part of the airflow to the first flow channel 10c and the other part to the second flow channel 10d.

[0069] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 10 As shown, the air duct structure 1 includes a volute 13 and a volute tongue 14 disposed opposite each other. The surface of the volute tongue 14 facing the volute 13 forms a first air duct wall 11, and the surface of the volute 13 facing the volute tongue 14 forms a second air duct wall 12. It can be seen that when the air guide 31 is in the fourth state, the side of the air guide 31 facing away from the volute tongue 14 is attached to the volute 13. When the air guide 31 is in the fifth state, the side of the air guide 31 facing away from the volute tongue 14 is spaced apart from the volute 13, and the air guide 31 can now be movably connected to the volute 13.

[0070] Normally, the air flow velocity in the portion of the air duct 10 adjacent to the volute tongue 14 is greater than the air flow velocity in the portion of the air duct 10 adjacent to the volute 13, such as a cross-flow air duct. For this reason, the guide member 31 is arranged on the volute 13, which is beneficial to reducing the blocking effect of the guide member 31 on the air flow in the air duct 10 and reducing the wind resistance generated by the guide member 31.

[0071] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the side surface of the guide member 31 facing away from the second air duct wall 12 is formed as a third air duct wall 311, and the third air duct wall 311 includes a first wall 3111 and a second wall 3112 that are bent and transitionally connected. In the airflow direction, the first wall 3111 extends toward the direction close to the first air duct wall 11, and the second wall 3112 extends from the downstream end of the first wall 3111 toward the direction away from the first air duct wall 11. The extension trend of the surface of the diverter block 21 opposite to the second wall 3112 is consistent with the extension trend of the second wall 3112, so that the second flow channel 10d can guide the outlet air in the direction away from the first flow channel 10c, which is beneficial to expand the air supply range of the outlet air diversion component 100.

[0072] The free end of the diverter plate 22 in the first state is adapted to overlap the first wall 3111 of the flow guide 31 in the fifth state (e.g. Figure 4), the diverter plate 22 in the first state cooperates with the guide member 31 in the fifth state to close the second flow channel 10c, and the guide member 31 in the fifth state is deflected toward the diverter plate 22 relative to the guide member 31 in the fourth state, so that the extension trend of the first wall 3111 is consistent with that of the first duct wall 11, thereby making the wall surface of the diverter plate 22 and the guide member 31 corresponding to the first flow channel 10c relatively smooth, and the second wall 3112 will not interfere with the overlap of the free end of the diverter plate 22 and the first wall 3111; the diverter plate 22 is in the second state or the third state and the guide member 31 is in the fourth state (as shown). Figure 3 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown), the first wall 3111 is opposite to the diverter plate 22, and the second wall 3112 is opposite to the diverter block 21, so as to make the wall surface of the second flow channel 10d relatively smooth.

[0073] In some embodiments, the diverter block 21 has a preset position. At the preset position, the diverter block 21 is disposed adjacent to the first air duct wall 11 relative to the second air duct wall 12 .

[0074] It can be seen that in the preset position, the distance between the diverter block 21 and the first air duct wall 11 is smaller than the distance between the diverter block 21 and the second air duct wall 12; under normal circumstances, the air flow velocity of the portion of the air duct 10 adjacent to the volute tongue 14 is greater than the air flow velocity of the portion of the air duct 10 adjacent to the volute 13, such as the cross-flow air duct. For this reason, the diverter block 21 is arranged adjacent to the first air duct wall 11 to reduce the distance between the diverter block 21 and the center of the air volume, which is beneficial to reduce the impact of the uneven distribution of the air flow velocity in the air duct 10 on the air volume distribution, and facilitate the realization of the proportional distribution of the air volume of the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d. In addition, when the diverter block 21 is in the preset position for air supply, the setting of the guide member 31 can improve the risk that the diverter plate 22 may not be able to close the second flow channel 10d alone when the diverter block 21 is arranged adjacent to the first air duct wall 11 in the preset position, so as to shorten the length of the diverter plate 22, reduce costs, and improve the applicability of the diversion structure 2.

[0075] It can be understood that when the diverter block 21 is fixed to the air duct structure 1, the diverter block 21 is always located at the preset position; when the diverter block 21 can move relative to the air duct structure 1, the preset position is within the moving range of the diverter block 21, for example, the diverter block 21 is in the preset position when the power is off.

[0076] Exemplarily, the diverter block 21 includes a main body 211 and a stop portion 212. The stop portion 212 participates in defining the wall surface of the first flow channel 10c or the second flow channel 10d. The left stop portion 212 is the first stop portion 212a, and the right stop portion 212 is the second stop portion 212b. The distance between the first stop portion 212a and the first air duct wall 11 is smaller than the distance between the second stop portion 212b and the second air duct wall 12. Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the main body 211 may participate in defining the wall surface of the first flow channel 10c and / or the second flow channel 10d, or the main body 211 does not participate in defining the wall surface of the first flow channel 10c or the second flow channel 10d.

[0077] Of course, for other types of air duct structures 1, the setting of the preset position is not limited thereto.

[0078] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 、 Figure 6 and Figure 10 As shown, in the relative directions of the first and second duct walls 11, 12, the spacing between the rotation axis of the diverter plate 22 and the first duct wall 11 corresponding to the preset position is L1. The spacing between the first and second duct walls 11, 12 at the location of the rotation axis of the diverter plate 22 is L, where 1 / 4 ≤ L1 / L ≤ 1 / 3; for example, L1 / L is 0.25, 0.26, 0.28, 0.29, 0.3, 0.32, or 0.33. This facilitates positioning the diverter block 21 substantially at the center of the airflow volume, further reducing the impact of uneven airflow velocity distribution within the duct 10 on airflow distribution.

[0079] Of course, in other embodiments of the present application, L1 / L may also be other values.

[0080] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 10 As shown, the upstream end of the guide member 31 is rotatably connected to the air duct structure 1. The guide structure 3 also includes a driver 32 (such as a motor, etc.) provided on the air duct structure 1. The driver 32 is used to drive the guide member 31 to rotate relative to the air duct structure 1 to change the state of the guide member 31.

[0081] For example, Figure 10 As shown, the driver 32 is directly connected to the guide member 31 to directly drive the guide member 31 to rotate. In this case, the driver 32 can be provided at the upstream end of the guide member 31 to simplify the structure of the guide structure 3; for example, Figure 1As shown, a driving rod 33 is provided between the driver 32 and the guide member 31. The driving rod 33 and the guide member 31 are slidably matched to drive the guide member 31 to rotate by rotating the driving rod 33. At this time, the driver 32 drives the driving rod 33 to rotate, and the rotation of the driving rod 33 can drive the guide member 31 to rotate. The setting position of the driver 32 and the driving rod 33 is relatively flexible.

[0082] Thus, the driver 32 can directly or indirectly drive the guide member 31 to rotate, thereby facilitating the rotation control of the guide member 31 and realizing the switching of the guide member 31 between the fourth state and the fifth state.

[0083] Exemplarily, the guide member 31 is formed with a slide groove 310, one end of the driving rod 33 is slidably engaged with the slide groove 310, and the other end is connected to the driver 32, so that the driving rod 33 rotates around the other end to drive the guide member 31 to rotate.

[0084] In some embodiments, as Figure 6-Figure 9 As shown, there are multiple third states so that the air outlet diversion component 100 has at least four different air supply modes. In different third states, the distance L2 between the free end of the diversion plate 22 and the first air duct wall 11 in the relative directions of the first air duct wall 11 and the second air duct wall 12 is different, which is convenient for adjusting the air volume distribution ratio of the first air duct 10c and the second air duct 10d, further improving the applicability of the air outlet diversion component 100.

[0085] Take the third state as an example, Figure 6-Figure 9 As shown, Figure 6 L2 in Figure 7 The L2 in is equal, Figure 8 L2< Figure 6 L2< Figure 9 L2 in, under the same other conditions, Figure 8 The air volume of the first air duct 10c is less than Figure 6 The air volume of the first air duct 10c is less than Figure 9 The air volume of the first air duct 10c, Figure 8 Air volume of the second air duct 10d> Figure 6 Air volume of the second air duct 10d> Figure 9 Of course, in other examples, the third state can also be two, four, five or more than five. Further optionally, Figure 6 L1 satisfies 1 / 4≤L1 / L≤1 / 3, so that the air volumes of the first air duct 10c and the second air duct 10d can be easily equalized by rotating the diverter plate 22.

[0086] In some embodiments, the diverter block 21 is fixed to the air duct structure 1, and the diverter block 21 is directly or indirectly fixedly connected to the air duct structure 1, the diverter block 21 is stationary relative to the air duct structure 1, and the distance between the diverter block 21 and the first air duct wall 11 and the second air duct wall 12 remains unchanged. The rotation of the diverter plate 22 can realize the switching of the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d, and at the same time realize the distribution of the air volume of the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d, and the structure of the air outlet diverter assembly 100 is simple.

[0087] In other embodiments of the present application, the diverter block 21 can move relative to the air duct structure 1 in the relative directions of the first air duct wall 11 and the second air duct wall 12, and the rotation axis of the diverter plate 22 can move in the relative directions of the first air duct wall 11 and the second air duct wall 12; at this time, the distance between the diverter block 21 and the first air duct wall 11 and the second air duct wall 12 can change with the movement of the diverter block 21, so as to achieve a richer air volume distribution ratio by rotating with the diverter plate 22.

[0088] Exemplarily, the first air duct wall 11 and the second air duct wall 12 are arranged opposite to each other on the left and right, and the diverter block 21 can move linearly or curvedly relative to the air duct structure 1 in the left and right directions. It can be understood that the moving range of the diverter block 21 can be constructed as follows: the diverter block 21 is always spaced apart from the first air duct wall 11 and the second air duct wall 12, or the diverter block 21 can be moved to abut at least one of the first air duct wall 11 and the second air duct wall 12.

[0089] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 11 As shown, the diverter block 21 includes a main body 211 and a stopper 212. The main body 211 is rotatably connected to the diverter plate 22, and the stopper 212 is connected to the main body 211. The stopper 212 participates in defining the wall surface of the first flow channel 10c or the second flow channel 10d. The stopper 212 is provided on both sides of the thickness of the diverter plate 22. The free end of the stopper 212 is elastically stopped against the side of the corresponding thickness of the diverter plate 22. The free end of the stopper 212 can be understood as the end of the stopper 212 away from the main body 211.

[0090] It can be seen that the free end of the stop portion 212 always stops at the side of the corresponding thickness of the diverter plate 22. No matter whether the diverter plate 22 rotates relative to the diverter block 21, and no matter how the diverter plate 22 rotates relative to the diverter block 21, the free end of the stop portion 212 always stops at the side of the corresponding thickness of the diverter plate 22, so as to reduce the gap between the stop portion 212 and the diverter plate 22, and even make it easy to make there is no gap between the stop portion 212 and the diverter plate 22, so as to improve the smoothness and continuity of the wall surface of the first air duct 10 and the wall surface of the second air duct 10, which is beneficial to the The invention can reduce the risk of condensation water being easily generated due to gaps in the wall of the air duct 10, and at the same time improve the sealing of the first air duct 10 and the second air duct 10, thereby reducing the risk of air leakage. At the same time, the free end of the stop portion 212 is elastically abutted against the side of the corresponding thickness of the diverter plate 22, so that the free end of the stop portion 212 can adapt to the requirement of always abutting against the diverter plate 22 regardless of whether the diverter plate 22 rotates or how the diverter plate 22 rotates, and is particularly suitable for scenarios where all contact positions of the diverter plate 22 with the stop portion 212 are constructed as non-cylindrical surfaces. Among them, the free end of the stop portion 212 can be understood as the end of the stop portion 212 away from the connection position of the stop portion 212 with the main body 211.

[0091] For example, Figure 2 and Figure 11 As shown, the two stop portions 212 on either side of the thickness of the diverter plate 22 are respectively a first stop portion 212a and a second stop portion 212b. The first stop portion 212a helps define the wall surface of the first flow channel 10c, and the free end of the first stop portion 212a often stops at one side of the thickness of the diverter plate 22. The second stop portion 212b helps define the wall surface of the second flow channel 10d, and the free end of the second stop portion 212b often stops at the other side of the thickness of the diverter plate 22. In the direction of airflow, the two stop portions 212 extend away from each other, so that the thickness of the diverter block 22 gradually increases along the airflow direction to meet the need to blow the distributed air in different directions.

[0092] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 11 As shown, the diverter plate 22 includes a diverter portion 221 and a pivot portion 222, the pivot portion 222 is rotatably connected to the main body portion 211, and the outer peripheral wall of the pivot portion 222 is a cylindrical surface, and the thickness of the two side surfaces of the diverter portion 221 are tangent to the outer peripheral wall of the pivot portion 222, so that the thickness of the two side surfaces of the diverter plate 22 are respectively formed into smooth surfaces, so that when the diverter plate 22 and the stop portion 212 are stopped, even if the diverter plate 22 rotates, it is easy to ensure that the stop portion 212 and the diverter plate 22 can stop smoothly and always, and it is not easy for the stop portion 212 to get stuck in the diverter plate 22 and restrict the rotation of the diverter plate 22, and the stop portion 212 is not easy to apply a large rotation resistance to the diverter plate 22, which is beneficial to improving the smoothness of the rotation of the diverter plate 22.

[0093] Moreover, since the outer peripheral wall of the pivoting portion 222 is a cylindrical surface, when the abutting portion 212 and the pivoting portion 222 abut against each other, the distance between the abutting position of the two and the rotation axis of the diverter plate 22 does not change with the rotation of the diverter plate 22.

[0094] Optionally, the central angle α corresponding to the outer peripheral wall of the pivot portion 222 is greater than 180° and less than 360°. In the first state and the third state, one of the abutting portions 212 abuts against the pivot portion 222, and the other abutting portion 212 abuts against the diverter portion 221. In the second state, one of the abutting portions 212 abuts against the diverter portion 221, and the other abutting portion 212 abuts against the pivot portion 222. Thus, the central angle of the outer peripheral wall of the pivot portion 222 is less demanding, and the central angle corresponding to the outer peripheral wall of the pivot portion 222 can be set to be relatively small. For example, the central angle corresponding to the outer peripheral wall of the pivot portion 222 can be less than 270°, or even less than 250°, which is conducive to appropriately increasing the thickness of the diverter portion 221 at the connection position with the pivot portion 222, thereby improving the reliability of the diverter plate 22.

[0095] For example, Figure 3 and Figure 12 As shown, the diverter block 21 has a preset position. In the preset position, the diverter block 21 is arranged adjacent to the first air duct wall 11 relative to the second air duct wall 12. The two stop portions 212 on both sides of the thickness of the diverter plate 22 are respectively a first stop portion 212a and a second stop portion 212b. The first stop portion 212a participates in defining the wall surface of the first flow channel 10c, and the second stop portion 212b participates in defining the wall surface of the second flow channel 10d. In the first state and the third state, the first stop portion 212 a stops at the pivot portion 222, and the second stop portion 212b stops at the diverter portion 221. In the second state, the first stop portion 212a stops at the diverter portion 221, and the second stop portion 212b stops at the pivot portion 222. The above-mentioned arrangement of the first stop portion 212a and the second stop portion 212b can easily adapt to the arrangement that when in the preset position, the distance between the first stop portion 212a and the first air duct wall 11 is smaller than the distance between the second stop portion 212b and the second air duct wall 12.

[0096] In some embodiments, as Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, the stop portion 212 is cantilevered from the main body 211 and is configured as an elastic stop portion. One end of the stop portion 212 is fixedly connected to the main body 211. The stop portion 212 itself has good elastic deformation capability, and the stop portion 212 has an area for recovering deformation, so that the stop portion 212 can always stop against the diverter plate 22 when the diverter plate 22 rotates arbitrarily, and at the same time, the stop portion 212 and the diverter plate 22 are elastically stopped. It can be seen that the stop portion 212 is pre-deformed during assembly and always stops against the diverter plate 22 through its own elastic force.

[0097] For example, Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the diverter plate 22 includes a diverter portion 221 and a pivot portion 222. The outer peripheral wall of the pivot portion 222 is a cylindrical surface. The thickness of the diverter portion 221 and the two side surfaces are tangent to the outer peripheral wall of the pivot portion 222 respectively. When the stop portion 212 and the pivot portion 222 stop, the diverter plate 22 can rotate without changing the deformation of the stop portion 212; the left stop portion 212 is the first stop portion 212a, and the right stop portion 212 is the second stop portion 212b. When the diverter plate 22 rotates to the left until the first stop portion 212a stops with the diverter portion 221, as the diverter plate 22 continues to rotate to the left, the free end of the first stop portion 212a continues to deflect to the left, which will increase the deformation of the first stop portion 212a. The same is true when the diverter plate 22 rotates to the right, and no further details are given.

[0098] In other embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, one end of the stop portion 212 away from the diverter plate 22 is rotatably connected to the main body 211, and an elastic member 213 is provided between the stop portion 212 and the main body 211. The elastic member 213 is used to apply an elastic force to the stop portion 212 to rotate toward the diverter plate 22. It can be understood that the elastic member 213 is connected between the two ends of the stop portion 212 (the two ends of the stop portion 212 are respectively the end where the stop portion 212 is connected to the main body 211 and the free end of the stop portion 212). The elastic member 213 is used to apply an elastic force to the stop portion 212, so that the stop portion 212 squeezes the diverter plate 22, so that the stop portion 212 always stops at the diverter plate 22 when the diverter plate 22 rotates arbitrarily, and at the same time, the stop portion 212 and the diverter plate 22 are elastically stopped.

[0099] Optionally, the elastic member 213 is a tension spring.

[0100] For example, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the diverter plate 22 includes a diverter portion 221 and a pivot portion 222. The outer peripheral wall of the pivot portion 222 is a cylindrical surface. The thickness of the diverter portion 221 and the two side surfaces are tangent to the outer peripheral wall of the pivot portion 222 respectively. When the stop portion 212 and the pivot portion 222 stop, the diverter plate 22 can rotate without changing the deformation of the stop portion 212; the left stop portion 212 is the first stop portion 212a, and the right stop portion 212 is the second stop portion 212b. When the diverter plate 22 rotates to the left until the first stop portion 212a stops with the diverter portion 221, as the diverter plate 22 continues to rotate to the left, the free end of the first stop portion 212a continues to deflect to the left, which will increase the deformation of the left elastic member 213. The same is true when the diverter plate 22 rotates to the right, and no further details will be given.

[0101] Obviously, no matter the stop portion 212 is cantilevered on the main body 211 or the stop portion 212 is rotatably connected to the main body 211, the free end of the stop portion 212 stops at the diverter plate 22, so that the diverter plate 22 supports the free end of the stop portion 212 to limit the movement of the free end of the stop portion 212. Then, the two ends of the stop portion 212 are subjected to the force exerted by other components, so that the middle part of the stop portion 212 is close to the position of the rotation axis of the diverter plate 22, so that the stop portion 212 is bent to define a smooth surface (for example, the side surface of the stop portion 212 facing away from the pivot portion 222), and the smooth surface is used to participate in defining the wall surface of the corresponding flow channel, thereby improving the smoothness of the wall surface of the corresponding flow channel.

[0102] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the stop portion 212 is formed into a plate-like structure, and one end of the stop portion 212 adjacent to the diverter portion 221 is configured into a pointed shape. As a result, the stop portion 212 has a simple structure and can reduce the obstruction of the stop portion 212 to the airflow in the corresponding flow channel, thereby further reducing wind resistance.

[0103] It can be understood that the air outlet diversion component 100 in the embodiment of the present application can be used for air supply equipment, for example, the air outlet diversion component 100 is used for an air conditioner 200, a fan, an air purifier, a humidifier, etc., wherein the air outlet 10b of the air duct 10 can be constructed as the air outlet 10b of the air supply equipment. Of course, the air outlet 10b of the air duct 10 and the air outlet 10b of the air supply equipment may not be the same outlet. For example, the air outlet 10b of the air duct 10 is arranged at intervals on the upstream side of the air outlet 10b of the air supply equipment.

[0104] The air conditioner 200 according to the second aspect embodiment of the present invention includes a wind wheel 102, a heat exchange component 103 and an air outlet diversion component 100 according to the above-mentioned first aspect embodiment of the present invention. The wind wheel 102 is arranged at the air inlet 10a of the air duct 10, and the heat exchange component 103 is arranged on the upstream side of the wind wheel 102. The air flows through the heat exchange component 103 and then flows to the wind wheel 102.

[0105] The rotor 102 is disposed at the air inlet 10a of the air duct 10. The rotor 102 may be disposed within the air duct 10 and located at the air inlet 10a; the rotor 102 is disposed outside the air duct 10 and corresponding to the air inlet 10a; or the rotor 102 is partially disposed within the air duct 10 and partially disposed outside the air duct 10, with the outlet position of the rotor 102 corresponding to the air inlet 10a. Thus, the rotation of the rotor 102 drives air flow, causing the air to be blown out of the air outlet 10b of the air duct 10, thereby achieving air discharge from the air conditioner 200.

[0106] According to the air conditioner 200 of the embodiment of the present invention, by adopting the above-mentioned air outlet diversion component 100, it is convenient to enrich the air outlet mode of the air conditioner 200, realize differentiated air supply, and improve the applicability of the air conditioner 200.

[0107] It is worth noting that the type of air conditioner 200 according to the embodiment of the present application is not limited and can be an integrated air conditioner or a split air conditioner. An integrated air conditioner can include a window air conditioner or a mobile air conditioner, and a split air conditioner can include a wall mounted air conditioner or a cabinet air conditioner. Once the type of air conditioner 200 is determined, the heat exchange assembly 103 and the impeller 102 can be adaptively designed. In the following description of this application, the air outlet diverter assembly 100 is used in the air conditioner 200 as an example. After reading the following description, those skilled in the art will easily understand the implementation scheme of the air outlet diverter assembly 100 for other air supply equipment.

[0108] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, the air conditioner 200 further includes an air guide assembly 101, which is movably disposed at the air outlet 10b of the air duct 10 to open and close the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d. The air guide assembly 101 can also adjust the air outlet direction of the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d. Thus, the air guide assembly 101 can cooperate with the diversion structure 2 to further enrich the air supply range of the air conditioner 200.

[0109] In some embodiments, as Figure 3As shown, the air guide assembly 101 includes a first air guide plate 1011 and a second air guide plate 1012. The first air guide plate 1011 is used to switch the first flow channel 10c, and the first air guide plate 1011 can adjust the air outlet direction of the first flow channel 10c. The second air guide plate 1012 is used to switch the second flow channel 10d, and the second air guide plate 1012 can adjust the air outlet direction of the second flow channel 10d. The air conditioner 200 has at least one of the first air outlet mode, the second air outlet mode, the third air outlet mode and the fourth air outlet mode.

[0110] In the first air outlet mode (such as Figure 4 and Figure 12 As shown), the diverter plate 22 switches to the first state, and the first air guide plate 1011 guides the air out of the first flow channel 10c in a direction away from the second air guide plate 1012; in the second air outlet mode (as shown), the diverter plate 22 switches to the first state, and the first air guide plate 1011 guides the air out of the first flow channel 10c in a direction away from the second air guide plate 1012; Figure 5 and Figure 13 As shown), the diverter plate 22 switches to the second state, and the second air guide plate 1012 guides the air out of the second flow channel 10d in a direction away from the first air guide plate 1011; in the third air outlet mode (as shown Figure 7 As shown), the diverter plate 22 switches to the third state, and the first air guide plate 1011 and the second air guide plate 1012 guide the air outlet of the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d toward the same side; in the fourth air outlet mode (as shown Figure 6 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 9 and Figure 14 As shown), the diverter plate 22 switches to the third state, and the first air guide plate 1011 and the second air guide plate 1012 guide the air outlet of the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d in a direction away from each other.

[0111] Exemplarily, the first air guide plate 1011 and the second air guide plate 1012 are arranged at intervals on the left and the first air guide plate 1011 is located on the left side of the second air guide plate 1012. In the first air outlet mode, the diverter plate 22 switches to the first state, and all the airflow in the air duct 10 flows to the first flow channel 10c. At the same time, the first air guide plate 1011 guides the air outlet of the first flow channel 10c to the left, so that the air conditioner 200 realizes left air supply, for example, realizing the air supply at the extreme left angle. At this time, the state of the second air guide plate 1012 is not specifically limited, for example, the second air guide plate 1012 is deflected to the left; in the second air outlet mode, the diverter plate 22 switches to the second state, and all the airflow in the air duct 10 flows to the second flow channel 10d. At the same time, the second air guide plate 1012 guides the air outlet of the second flow channel 10d to the right, so that the air conditioner 200 realizes right air supply, for example, realizing the extreme right angle. Air supply, at this time the state of the first air guide plate 1011 is not specifically limited, for example, the first air guide plate 1011 is deflected to the left; in the third air outlet mode, the diverter plate 22 switches to the third state, and the airflow in the air duct 10 is distributed to the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d, and at the same time the first air guide plate 1011 guides the outlet of the first flow channel 10c forward, and the second air guide plate 1012 guides the outlet of the second flow channel 10d forward, so that the air conditioner 200 can supply air forward, which is convenient for achieving large air volume outlet from the front; in the fourth air outlet mode, the diverter plate 22 switches to the third state, and the airflow in the air duct 10 is distributed to the first flow channel 10c and the second flow channel 10d, and at the same time the first air guide plate 1011 guides the outlet of the first flow channel 10c to the left, and the second air guide plate 1012 guides the outlet of the second flow channel 10d to the right, so that the air conditioner 200 can achieve surround air supply.

[0112] It is understood that there may be one or more first air guide plates 1011 and one or more second air guide plates 1012. The movement mode of the first air guide plate 1011 and the movement mode of the second air guide plate 1012 are not specifically limited in the present embodiment. For example, Figure 4 and Figure 12 As shown, there are one first air guide plate 1011 and one second air guide plate 1012 . The first air guide plate 1011 is rotatably disposed at the outlet of the first flow channel 10 c , and the second air guide plate 1012 is rotatably disposed at the outlet of the second flow channel 10 d .

[0113] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 and Figure 12As shown, air conditioner 200 is a cabinet air conditioner, with air outlet 10b located on the front side of air conditioner 200. First and second flow channels 10c, 10d are spaced apart in the left-right direction. The first and second flow channels 10c, 10d are adapted to direct the outgoing air away from each other, so that when the diverter plate 22 is in the third position, the air outlet diverter assembly 100 has a wider air supply range than when the diverter plate 22 is in the first and second positions. The diverter block 22 contributes to forming the front panel of the air conditioner 200, and the air outlet 10b can form the air outlet of the air conditioner 200. Alternatively, the diverter block 22 can be located behind the front panel of the air conditioner 200, for example, the diverter block 22 is independent of the front panel.

[0114] Taking the example of the first flow channel 10c being located to the left of the second flow channel 10d, the first flow channel 10c is used to guide the inner air outflow to the left, and the second flow channel 10d is used to guide the inner air outflow to the right. Of course, the first flow channel 10c can also be located to the right of the second flow channel 10d. In this case, the first flow channel 10c is used to guide the inner air outflow to the right, and the second flow channel 10d is used to guide the inner air outflow to the left.

[0115] For example, Figure 3 and Figure 12 As shown, the air conditioner 200 is a cabinet air conditioner. The air conditioner 200 includes a housing. The air outlet 10b is located at the front side of the air conditioner 200. The inlet of the air conditioner 200 (eg Figure 3 The dotted line portion is located at the rear side of the housing, with an air inlet grille at the entrance. An electric auxiliary heater 104 is provided between the heat exchange assembly 103 and the impeller 102. If the impeller 102 is a crossflow impeller, then the air duct 10 is also a crossflow duct. Of course, the impeller 102 can also be a centrifugal impeller, an axial flow impeller, or the like.
