Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile window defogging, in particular to a rear window defogging structure for an automobile. Background Art

[0002] When there's a significant temperature difference between the inside and outside of a vehicle, the hot air inside hits the cold rear window, and moisture in the air condenses into small droplets on the glass surface, forming fog. For example, in cold winter, turning on the car's heater while the outside temperature is lower can easily cause the rear window to fog up. In summer, driving in high temperatures and then suddenly entering a cool underground parking lot can also cause the rear window to fog up due to the temperature difference. Rear window defogger uses specific technical means to remove fog from the rear window caused by temperature differences, humidity, and other factors. This ensures the driver can clearly see what's behind them while driving, improving driving safety.

[0003] However, the existing technology has the following shortcomings. Traditional resistance wires are mainly embedded in the rear window glass, which generates heat when powered on to defog. Due to the limited heating area of ​​the resistance wire and the relatively slow heat transfer, the defog speed is slow. Especially in cases of severe fog, it takes a long time to achieve a good defogging effect. The resistance wire is usually distributed linearly inside the glass, which can easily lead to uneven temperature distribution on the rear window. Some areas may have higher temperatures while other areas have lower temperatures, resulting in different defogging effects and the possibility of residual fog in some areas. Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a rear window defogging structure for automobiles to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 4 A rear window defogger structure for an automobile includes a mounting base 1, a rear window 4 mounted in the middle of the rear side wall of the mounting base 1, a ventilation grille 2 mounted in the middle of the top of the mounting base 1, a second mounting slot 12 located below the ventilation grille 2 and in the middle of the top, and a plurality of fans 7 arranged in an array and mounted in the middle of the bottom of the inner side wall of the second mounting slot 12. A heater 13 is mounted in the middle of the front side of the rear window 4 and at the top of the vehicle compartment. Heat generated by the heater 13, combined with the airflow generated by the fans 7, is quickly and evenly blown toward the rear window 4, effectively removing fog from the rear window 4 in a short period of time. The coordinated operation of the heater 13 and the fans 7 greatly improves the defogger efficiency, provides the driver with a clear rearview, and enhances driving safety.

[0031] A first mounting groove 6 is provided in the front middle of the rear side wall of the mounting base 1, and a drive motor 14 is installed in the right middle of the inner side wall of the first mounting groove 6. The output end of the drive motor 14 extends into the front middle of the top of the inner side wall of the second mounting groove 12. The drive motor 14 serves as the driving force for several fans 7. Each fan 7 includes a mounting frame 11. A transmission gear 10 is rotatably connected to the middle of the bottom of the inner side wall of each mounting frame 11, and a fan blade 8 is installed in the middle of the top of each transmission gear 10. Each fan blade 8 is rotatably connected to the upper middle of the inner side wall of the corresponding mounting frame 11. The mounting frame 11 provides a stable mounting position for the fan blade 8 and the transmission gear 10. To ensure that during the operation of the car, the fan blades 8 and the transmission gear 10 will not be displaced or loosened due to vibration or other external forces, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the fan 7, a transmission belt 9 is sleeved on the outer wall of several transmission gears 10, and the transmission belt 9 is used to realize the linkage of several transmission gears 10, so that each transmission gear 10 can be driven by the transmission belt to operate synchronously to complete a specific mechanical transmission function. The transmission belt 9 is closely matched with the transmission gear 10 to ensure that no slippage occurs during the transmission process and power is transmitted stably. The transmission belt 9 sleeved on the outer wall of several transmission gears 10 realizes the linkage of each transmission gear 10, so that each gear can be driven by the transmission belt 9 to operate synchronously, ensuring the stable operation of the fan 7 system and avoiding the failure of the entire system due to a single gear failure. The output end of the drive motor 14 is connected to the input end of the transmission gear 10 on the left side, and the output end of the drive motor 14 acts on the transmission gear 10 to rotate, thereby causing the fan blades 8 to rotate.

[0032] An adjustment grille 17 is rotatably connected to the middle position of the rear wall of the heater 13, and a transmission block 15 is installed at the rear middle position of the left side wall of the heater 13. The output end of the transmission block 15 is connected to the regulator 16, and the output end of the regulator 16 is connected to the input end. The adjustment grille 17 on the rear wall of the heater 13 can be adjusted in angle by rotating the regulator 16 in the transmission block 15, and can accurately control the output direction of heat according to actual conditions to ensure that the heat is concentrated in areas with heavier fog, further improving the demisting effect. A number of drainage grooves 3 distributed in an array are provided at the rear middle position of the bottom middle of the inner wall of the second mounting groove 12, and a support plate 5 is installed at the rear middle position of the top middle of the inner wall of the mounting seat 1. The airflow is guided and channeled through the 3 drainage grooves to ensure smooth flow of the airflow, avoid airflow turbulence and local blockage, and improve the working stability of the entire demisting system.

[0033] Working Principle: First, the drive motor 14, located in the first mounting slot 6 on the rear side wall of the mounting base 1, is activated. Its output connects to the input of the left-side transmission gear 10, driving the left transmission gear 10 to rotate. Because a drive belt 9 is sleeved onto the outer walls of several transmission gears 10, the transmission belt 9 drives the transmission gears 10 to operate synchronously. The transmission belt 9 fits tightly with the transmission gears 10, ensuring that they do not slip during transmission, thereby transmitting power stably. The fan blades 8, mounted in the top center of each transmission gear 10, also rotate accordingly. These fan blades 8 are located near the top center of the inner wall of the mounting frame 11, which is mounted in an array at the bottom center of the inner wall of the second mounting slot 12. The rotation of the fan blades 8 generates airflow, which is blown upward through the ventilation grille 2 in the top center of the mounting base 1. Simultaneously, the heater 13, located in the center in front of the rear window 4 and at the top of the vehicle compartment, begins to operate, generating heat. An adjustment grille 17, rotatably connected to the middle of the rear wall of the heater 13, can be rotated and adjusted by the drive block 15 and the regulator 16. The output of the transmission block 15 is controlled by a regulator 16, which in turn adjusts the angle of the regulating grille 17 to redirect heat output, allowing it to more effectively reach the rear window 4. A plurality of drainage grooves 3 arranged in an array, located at the rear center of the bottom inner wall of the second mounting slot 12, guide and direct the airflow, ensuring smooth flow. A support plate 5, located at the rear center of the top inner wall of the mounting base 1, supports and stabilizes the entire structure.

[0034] The rear window defogger structure for automobiles drives the fan blades 8 to generate airflow through the driving motor 14, and the heater 13 generates heat. The airflow blows the heat toward the rear window 4, the regulating grille 17 adjusts the heat direction, and the diversion groove 3 guides the airflow, thereby achieving the defogger function of the rear window of the automobile.

[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
