Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of automotive air conditioning dampers, and in particular to an automotive internal and external circulation damper. Background Art
[0002] The automotive air conditioning system's internal and external circulation damper is used to control the switching between internal and external air circulation modes, selecting ventilation options to regulate the air inside the vehicle and maintain freshness. While existing internal and external circulation dampers can meet the usage requirements, their structure still has certain shortcomings. For example, when the car's air conditioning is in internal circulation mode, the damper blocks the external air intake passage. Since external noise can pass through the damper during vehicle operation and enter the vehicle's interior, it results in relatively high interior noise levels. Therefore, designing an automotive internal and external circulation damper that can reduce noise has become an urgent technical problem to be solved. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to overcome the existing technical defects, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an automotive internal and external circulation damper to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the technical problem is as follows:
[0005] According to one aspect of the present invention, an automotive internal and external circulation damper is designed, comprising: a damper body, wherein one end of the damper body is provided with a hinge shaft and the other end is provided with a drive unit, and the outer side wall of the damper body is provided with a plurality of protruding structures, wherein the protruding structures are formed by at least three surrounding plates connected together, and the interior of the protruding structures is provided with a plurality of protrusions in the shape of a triangular pyramid or a pyramid.
[0006] Using the above technical solution, the internal and external circulation damper is used to switch between the internal and external circulation air vents connected to the main body of the car air conditioner. The structural strength of the internal and external circulation damper can be increased by setting a protruding structure. By setting several triangular pyramid or pyramid-shaped protrusions inside the protruding structure, when the internal and external circulation damper blocks the external air intake passage, the triangular pyramid or pyramid-shaped protrusions can reduce the passage of external noise, thereby reducing noise.
[0007] To better address the aforementioned technical deficiencies, this utility model also offers a superior technical solution:
[0008] In some embodiments, a sealing ring is also included. The left and right ends of the damper body are respectively provided with U-shaped sealing plates. The outer edges of the two sealing plates are inserted into the insertion grooves at the left and right ends of the sealing ring, and the sealing ring is in a tensioned state. This allows for the installation of the sealing ring by insertion, which is faster and easier to replace compared to the existing adhesive method.
[0009] In some embodiments, the sealing ring has U-shaped sealing portions at its left and right ends, each composed of three inclined sealing plates connected together. This further improves the sealing performance.
[0010] In some embodiments, the inner wall of the damper body is provided with multiple reinforcing ribs spaced apart along its width. This increases the overall structural strength of the internal and external circulation damper, making it less prone to damage and extending its service life.
[0011] In some embodiments, the drive unit is a slotted or cross-shaped through-hole.
[0012] In some embodiments, the surface of the protrusion is provided with an absorbent coating layer. This can further reduce noise.
[0013] In some embodiments, the protruding structure is formed by six surrounding plates connected together. Attached Figure Description
