Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of fans, for example, to a volute, a fan and a duct fan. Background Art
[0002] A ducted air conditioner is a type of central air conditioning system that distributes air through a duct system. It consists of an indoor unit, an outdoor unit, and a duct system, and is widely used in commercial buildings, office buildings, hotels, hospitals, and other locations. The indoor unit of a ducted air conditioner is concealed within the ceiling, eliminating space and creating a cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing interior. This improves space utilization. Furthermore, through the duct system, ducted air conditioners can evenly distribute hot and cold air to each room, improving comfort. However, existing ducted air conditioners utilize centrifugal fans and volutes, resulting in high noise levels, poor airflow stability, and poor sound uniformity.
[0003] In the related art, in order to reduce noise, the volute of the centrifugal fan generally adds cavities and small holes at the tongue position of the volute to weaken the pressure pulsation and thus achieve noise reduction.
[0004] During the implementation of the embodiments of the present disclosure, it was found that at least the following problems exist in the related art:
[0005] In the related art, ducted air conditioner products generally use evaporators of different lengths and thicknesses to achieve corresponding capacities for different capacity segments, and different evaporators are generally matched with 1 to 2 types of volutes. The effect produced by different overall resistances corresponding to a single volute (mainly due to different evaporators) cannot reach the optimal effect, and there are differences in noise values and sound quality. Therefore, the volute is not well adapted to different evaporators and cannot achieve the best effect.
[0006] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the above background technology section is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of this application, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art known to ordinary technicians in this field.

The accompanying drawings are for reference only and are not used to limit the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0042] The term "and / or" describes an association between objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B means: A or B, or A and B.
[0043] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be combined with each other.
[0044] The length and width of the air outlet are as follows Figure 1 shown.
[0045] Combine Figures 1 to 11 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a volute, which includes a volute body and a volute tongue 40, the volute body includes an upper volute 20 and a lower volute 10, and the upper volute 20 and the lower volute 10 are detachably connected; the volute tongue 40 is arranged at the air outlet 30 of the volute body, and the volute tongue 40 is detachably connected to the upper volute 20 and / or the lower volute 10; wherein, the end face of the volute tongue 40 facing the air outlet 30 is a wavy surface 401.
[0046] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the upper volute 20 and the lower volute 10 are detachably connected, and the volute tongue 40 is detachably connected to the upper volute and / or the lower volute 10, which improves the convenience of disassembly of the entire volute. In this way, when the fan is matched with different models, there is no need to replace the entire fan and the entire volute, only the volute tongue 40 needs to be replaced, which improves the versatility of the volute and reduces costs. In addition, if Figures 8 to 11 As shown, compared to Figure 8 and Figure 10 The end surface of the volute tongue 40 facing the air outlet 30 of the embodiment of the present disclosure is a wave surface 401, such as Figure 9 The wavy surface 401 causes the airflow on the surface of the volute tongue 40 to be split and converged toward the middle of the air outlet 30, reducing the airflow on both sides of the air outlet 30, effectively increasing the outlet pressure of the air outlet 30, improving the resistance of the airflow, and ensuring the stability of the airflow. Especially at high speeds, it can reduce the vortex in the inefficient air outlet areas on the left and right sides of the volute air outlet 30, effectively reducing noise. Moreover, compared to Figure 10 Ordinary volute, Figure 11 The volute with the wavy volute tongue has better airflow uniformity, which can effectively improve the heat exchange efficiency.
[0047] In addition, the volute tongue can be detachably connected to the upper volute, or detachably connected to the lower volute, or the volute tongue can be detachably connected to both the upper volute and the lower volute. Any connection method that can facilitate the detachment of the volute tongue belongs to an optional embodiment of the present application.
[0048] Optionally, the ratio of the maximum distance between two wave crests in the length direction of the wave surface 401 to the length of the air outlet 30 of the volute body is 20%-30%.
[0049] In the disclosed embodiment, when the ratio of the maximum distance between the two wave crests in the length direction of the wave surface 401 to the length of the air outlet 30 of the volute body is less than 20%, the length of the wave surface 401 is too small, the effect on the airflow is small, and the outlet pressure of the air outlet 30 cannot be effectively increased. When the ratio of the maximum distance between the two wave crests in the length direction of the wave surface 401 to the length of the air outlet 30 of the volute body is greater than 30%, the size of the wave surface 401 is too large, and the vortex on the left and right sides of the air outlet 30 cannot be effectively reduced, and the noise reduction effect is not obvious. Therefore, by setting the maximum distance between the two wave crests of the wave surface 401 within the above range, the airflow of the air outlet 30 is diverted at the wave surface 401 of the volute tongue 40, and the airflow can be converged to the middle area of the air outlet 30, the airflow on both sides of the air outlet 30 is reduced, and the resistance of the airflow is improved. In particular, the vortex on both sides of the air outlet 30 at high speed can be reduced, reducing noise and achieving the best noise reduction effect.
[0050] Here, the maximum distance between two crests in the length direction of the wave surface 401 refers to the distance between the crests at the two ends of the wave surface 401 along the length direction.
[0051] Optionally, the ratio of the maximum distance between two wave crests in the length direction of the wave surface 401 to the length of the air outlet 30 of the volute body is 25%-30%.
[0052] For example, the ratio of the maximum distance between two wave crests in the length direction of the wave surface 401 to the length of the air outlet 30 of the volute body is 20%, 21%, 22%, 23%, 24%, 25%, 26%, 28%, 30%, etc.
[0053] Optionally, the ratio of the maximum height of the wave crest of the wave surface 401 to the width of the air outlet 30 of the volute body is 10%-15%.
[0054] In the disclosed embodiment, when the ratio of the maximum height of the wave crest of the wave surface 401 to the width of the air outlet 30 of the volute body is less than 10%, the wave crest height is too small and cannot effectively increase the outlet pressure of the air outlet 30, resulting in poor airflow diversion effect on the surface of the volute tongue 40 and failure to reduce the vortex on both sides of the air outlet 30. When the ratio of the maximum height of the wave crest of the wave surface 401 to the width of the air outlet 30 of the volute body is greater than 15%, the wave crest height of the wave surface 401 is too high, resulting in excessive airflow resistance at the air outlet 30, which affects the airflow volume. Therefore, by setting the height of the wave surface 401 within the above range, the airflow at the air outlet 30 is diverted at the wave surface 401 of the volute tongue 40, and the airflow can be converged to the middle area of the air outlet 30, reducing the airflow on both sides of the air outlet 30, improving the airflow resistance, and particularly reducing the vortex on both sides of the air outlet 30 at high speeds, reducing noise, and achieving the best noise reduction effect.
[0055] Optionally, the ratio of the maximum height of the wave crest of the wave surface 401 to the width of the air outlet 30 of the volute body is 12%-15%.
[0056] For example, the ratio of the maximum height of the wave crest of the wave surface 401 to the width of the air outlet 30 of the volute body is 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, 14%, 15%, etc.
[0057] Optionally, the lower volute 10 and the volute tongue 40 can be detachably connected by means of snap connection, screws or magnetism.
[0058] Optionally, the upper volute and the volute tongue are detachably connected by means of snap connection, screw connection or magnetic connection.

[0060] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the air outlet side wall 101 of the lower volute 10 forms the two ends of the air outlet 30 in the length direction, and the first side wall 403 of the volute tongue 40 corresponds to the air outlet side wall 101 and is detachably connected. In this way, the lower volute 10 and the volute tongue 40 can be detachably connected, and the connection position will not affect the air outlet effect.
[0061] Alternatively, as Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the first side wall 403 is engaged with the air outlet side wall 101 .
[0062] Optionally, one of the first side wall 403 and the air outlet side wall 101 is provided with a hook 103, and the other of the first side wall 403 and the air outlet side wall 101 is provided with a buckle 405 adapted to the hook 103. When the hook 103 and the buckle 405 are engaged, the lower volute 10 and the volute tongue 40 are connected.
[0063] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first side wall 403 and the air outlet side wall 101 are detachably connected by the hook 103 and the buckle 405, so there is no need to set up additional connecting parts for connection. Moreover, the structure of the hook 103 and the buckle 405 facilitates the connection and disassembly of the lower volute 10 and the volute tongue 40, and thus facilitates the replacement of the volute tongue 40.
[0064] Optionally, the lower volute 10 also includes a connecting plate 102, the first end of the connecting plate 102 is connected to the air outlet side wall 101 and extends in a direction away from the upper volute 20, and the second end of the connecting plate 102 is constructed with a hook 103; wherein, the wall surface of the first side wall 403 away from the air outlet side wall 101 is constructed with a buckle 405, and when the volute tongue 40 is connected to the lower volute 10, the hook 103 is connected to the buckle 405.
[0065] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the connecting plate 102 extends from the air outlet side wall 101 in a direction away from the upper volute 20, so that the second end of the connecting plate 102 can be connected with the volute tongue 40, and the first side wall 403 of the volute tongue 40 is constructed with a buckle 405, so that when the hook 103 is connected to the buckle 405, the volute tongue 40 is connected to the lower volute 10.
[0066] Optionally, the connecting plate 102 includes a first connecting arm and a second connecting arm, the first connecting arm is connected to the air outlet side wall 101, and the first connecting arm extends along the length direction of the air outlet 30, one end of the second connecting arm is connected to the first connecting arm, and the second connecting arm extends along the width direction of the air outlet 30 in a direction away from the upper volute 20, and the second end of the second connecting arm extends from the direction toward the air outlet side wall 101 to form a hook 103, and the connecting plate 102 forms a connecting groove with the air outlet side wall 101.
[0067] Optionally, the first side wall 403 is located on the side of the lower volute 10 body facing the air outlet 30, and the first side wall 403 corresponds to the air outlet side wall 101, and the buckle 405 protrudes from the side of the first side wall 403 away from the air outlet side wall 101, so that when the hook 103 is engaged with the buckle 405, part of the first side wall 403 is located in the engaging groove, which can also improve the connection stability between the volute tongue 40 and the lower volute 10.
[0068] Optionally, a portion of the first side wall 403 protrudes in a direction away from the air outlet side wall 101 to form a buckle 405 .
[0069] Optionally, the buckle 405 is tilted away from the first side wall 403. This can increase the connection area between the buckle 405 and the hook 103, thereby improving the connection stability.
[0070] Optionally, the air outlet side wall 101 is constructed with a guide column 104 and a guide groove 406, and the first side wall 403 is constructed with another guide column 104 and a guide groove 406. When the lower volute 10 is connected to the volute tongue 40, the guide column 104 is located in the guide groove 406 and can slide along the guide groove 406.
[0071] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the lower volute 10 and the volute tongue 40 are assembled, the guide column 104 can slide along the guide groove 406, so that the guide column 104 and the guide groove 406 can play a positioning and guiding role. In this way, when the guide column 104 and the guide groove 406 cooperate with each other, they can also play a limiting role in the front and rear directions, which can prevent the volute tongue 40 from being displaced by the forward force of the wind during the operation of the fan, thereby ensuring the stability of the volute tongue 40.
[0072] Optionally, the guide groove 406 extends along the width direction of the air outlet 30 , and the guide column 104 matches the guide groove 406 .
[0073] Optionally, the volute tongue 40 includes an air guide wall 402 and a first side wall 403. The air guide wall 402 is arranged at the end of the air outlet 30 close to the upper volute 20, and part of the air guide wall 402 protrudes toward the lower volute 10 to form a wavy surface 401; there are two first side walls 403, which are connected on both sides of the length direction of the air guide wall 402, and the first side wall 403 is detachably connected to the lower volute tongue 40.

This ensures the air outlet area of the air outlet 30, and the air outlet of the air outlet 30 can be affected by the wave surface 401, thereby increasing the air outlet pressure, allowing the airflow to converge toward the center of the air outlet 30, improving the airflow resistance, reducing the vortex at the positions on both sides of the air outlet 30, and thus effectively reducing noise. The two first side walls 403 in the longitudinal direction of the air guide wall 402 are detachably connected to the lower volute tongue 40, so that the connection between the volute tongue 40 and the lower volute 10 does not affect the air outlet, ensuring the smoothness of the air outlet.
[0075] Optionally, both first sidewalls 403 are provided with slots, and both opposing first sidewalls 403 of the lower volute 10 are provided with hooks 103, with the number of hooks 103 being the same as the number of slots and corresponding one to one. In this way, the volute tongues 40 at both ends of the air outlet 30 in the longitudinal direction can be connected to the lower volute 10, thereby improving the connection stability between the volute tongues 40 and the lower volute 10.
[0076] Optionally, both first side walls 403 are provided with guide grooves 406, and the number of guide columns 104 and guide grooves 406 are the same and correspond one to one, so that when the volute tongue 40 is assembled with the lower volute 10, both ends of the air outlet 30 in the length direction can be guided and positioned by the guide columns 104 and the guide grooves 406.
[0077] Optionally, a portion of the wind guide wall 402 protrudes toward the lower volute 10 to form a wavy surface 401.
[0078] Optionally, the volute tongue 40 also includes a second side wall 404 and a reinforcement plate 407, the number of the second side walls 404 is two, and the second side walls 404 are connected to the two ends of the wind guide wall 402 in the width direction; the reinforcement plate 407 is arranged on the side of the wind guide wall 402 away from the lower volute 10, and the two ends of the reinforcement plate 407 are connected to the two second side walls 404.
[0079] In the disclosed embodiment, a reinforcing plate 407 is provided on the wall of the volute tongue 40 facing away from the air outlet 30 . The reinforcing plate 407 can increase the strength of the volute tongue 40 , thereby causing the volute tongue 40 to bend and deform when air is discharged from the air outlet 30 .
[0080] Optionally, there are multiple reinforcing plates 407 , and the multiple reinforcing plates 407 are sequentially spaced apart along the length direction of the volute tongue 40 .
[0081] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the reinforcing plate 407 is arranged between the two first side walls 403, and multiple reinforcing plates 407 are arranged in sequence and spaced apart between the two first side walls 403 along the length direction of the snail tongue 40, which can improve the strength of the snail tongue 40 and prevent the snail tongue 40 from deformation.
[0082] Optionally, a recess 408 is constructed at the end of the volute tongue 40 facing the upper volute 20, and the recess 408 extends along the circumference of the volute tongue 40; a boss 203 is constructed at the end of the upper volute 20 facing the volute tongue 40, and when the upper volute 20 and the volute tongue 40 are connected, the recess 408 cooperates with the boss 203.
