[0064] 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.

[0065] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center," "longitudinal," "transverse," "length," "width," "thickness," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," "outer," "clockwise," "counterclockwise," "axial," "radial," and "circumferential," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, features defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0066] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0067] The fixing base according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0068] The fixing base according to the embodiment of this utility model is used for the air outlet structure, such as Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the air outlet structure 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes a frame 1 and a plurality of air guide plates 2.

[0069] Specifically, such as Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the frame 1 is annular, specifically a rectangular annular shape. The space within the frame 1 can be used as an air outlet. The frame 1 can also be used to support and fix other components, serving as a basic element for supporting other components. Of course, this utility model is not limited to this; the frame 1 can also be circular, square, or other shapes, depending on the shape of the air outlet or other factors such as the space available for installing the air outlet structure 100.

[0070] When the air outlet structure 100 is applied to an air conditioner, it can be directly mounted on the air conditioner's casing, for example, the frame 1 can be directly connected to the air conditioner's casing, such as in a floor-standing or wall-mounted air conditioner. In a ceiling-mounted air conditioner, such as a central air conditioning system or a ducted air conditioner, the air outlet structure 100 can be mounted on the casing, such as in a ducted air conditioner, and the frame 1 can be directly connected to the casing of the ducted air conditioner. Alternatively, the air outlet structure 100 can be mounted on the ceiling and connected to the air outlet of the air conditioner via a duct, such as in a central air conditioning system.

[0071] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the frame 1 includes a frame body 11 and a flange 12. The frame body 11 is a rectangular ring, and the flange 12 is located at one axial end of the frame body 11 and folds outward toward the frame body 11. It can be understood that the cross-section of the frame 1 is L-shaped. Therefore, when the air outlet structure 100 is installed on the housing, wall sidewall, or ceiling of the air conditioner, the frame body 11 can be inserted into the installation opening on the housing, cavity, or ceiling, and the flange 12 is located on the outside. The flange 12 can cover the gap between the frame body 11 and the housing or between the frame body 11 and the ceiling or wall, and the flange 12 can limit the frame 1. During installation, the flange 12 abuts against the wall, ceiling, or housing, thereby achieving the positioning and installation of the air outlet structure 100.

[0072] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, a groove is provided on the side of the frame body 11 away from the flange 12 in the thickness direction. The flange 12 extends into a ring along the circumferential direction of the frame body 11, and the groove extends into a ring along the circumferential direction of the flange 12, thereby facilitating the bending of the flange 12.

[0073] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, combined Figure 24 and Figure 25 As shown, multiple air guide plates 2 are rotatably disposed within the frame 1 and spaced apart along the width direction of the frame 1. The air guide plates 2 extend along the length direction of the frame 1 and include a rotating shaft 21 and a plate body 22 connected in the width direction of the air guide plate 2. When the air outlet structure 100 is applied to a ducted air conditioner, the air outlet structure 100 is vertically arranged, the width direction of the frame 1 is the vertical direction, the length direction of the frame 1 is perpendicular to the vertical direction and parallel to the horizontal direction, and multiple air guide plates 2 are spaced apart in the vertical direction. Each air guide plate 2 extends along the length direction of the frame 1. The air guide plate 2 includes a rotating shaft 21 and a plate body 22 connected in the width direction of the air guide plate 2. The rotating shaft 21 extends along the length direction of the frame 1 and extends from one end of the length direction of the air guide plate 2 to the other end. The rotating shaft 21 is rotatably disposed within the frame 1. Along the airflow direction, the plate body 22 can be disposed downstream of the rotating shaft 21, thereby facilitating air guidance through the plate body 22.

[0074] Multiple air guide plates 2 are spaced apart in the vertical direction and can swing in the vertical direction, thereby adjusting the air delivery angle in the vertical direction. (Refer to...) Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the air guide plate 2 can be set horizontally to achieve horizontal airflow; as Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the air outlet of the air guide plate 2 can be tilted downward to deliver air downward. Especially when heating, it can press the hot airflow downward to improve the heating effect.

[0075] A fixing base 5 is located within the frame 1, and multiple air guide plates 2 are spaced apart along the length of the fixing base 5 and rotatably mounted on it. The fixing base 5 provides support for the air guide plates 2, facilitating their rotation within the frame 1. Further, as... Figure 3 As shown, the two ends of the fixing base 5 in the length direction are connected to the two ends of the frame 1 in the width direction. This improves the support and fixing effect on the multiple air guide plates 2, and ensures the reliability of the rotation of the multiple air guide plates 2.

[0076] like Figure 4 and Figure 21 As shown, the frame 1 is vertically arranged and includes an upper frame 13, a lower frame 14, a left frame 15, and a right frame 16. The upper frame 13 and the lower frame 14 are horizontally arranged and spaced apart vertically. The upper and lower ends of the left frame 15 are connected to the left ends of the upper frame 13 and the lower frame 14, respectively. The upper and lower ends of the right frame 16 are connected to the right ends of the upper frame 13 and the lower frame 14, respectively. The lengths of the upper frame 13 and the lower frame 14 are greater than the lengths of the left frame 15 and the right frame 16. The upper frame 13 and the lower frame 14 are each provided with a first mounting hole 17. The two ends of the fixing base 5 in the length direction are provided with second mounting holes 511. Both ends of the fixing base 5 in the length direction are connected to the frame 1 by fasteners, which pass through the first mounting holes 17 and the second mounting holes 511.

[0077] The fixing base 5 includes a fixing base body 51, such as Figures 21-23 As shown, the fixing base body 51 has multiple fixing holes 512 spaced apart along the length of the fixing base body 51. The peripheral wall of each fixing hole 512 has a third opening 513. Multiple rotating shafts 21 of the multiple air guide plates 2 are rotatably disposed within the multiple fixing holes 512, and the plate body 22 passes through the third opening 513. This improves the reliability of supporting and fixing the air guide plates 2 and ensures the reliability of the rotation of the air guide plates 2. The rotating shafts 21 can be fitted into the fixing holes 512 through the third opening 513.

[0078] According to the embodiment of the present utility model, the fixing base 5 has a plurality of fixing holes 512 spaced apart along the length direction of the fixing base body 51, and a third opening 513 is provided on the peripheral wall of the fixing holes 512. The plurality of rotating shafts 21 of the plurality of air guide plates 2 can be respectively provided in the plurality of fixing holes 512 through the plurality of third openings 513, which can improve the reliability of the support and fixing of the air guide plates 2 and ensure the reliability of the rotation of the air guide plates 2.

[0079] In some embodiments of this utility model, the width of the third opening 513 is d1, and the diameter of the rotating shaft 21 is D1, satisfying that d1 < D1. This prevents the rotating shaft 21 from coming out of the fixing hole 512, ensuring the reliability of the air guide plate 2's fixation. When the rotating shaft 21 is assembled into the fixing hole 512, the width of the third opening 513 can be increased by deformation to facilitate the assembly of the rotating shaft 21 into the fixing hole 512. After the rotating shaft 21 is assembled, the third opening 513 returns to its initial state.

[0080] In addition, the width of the third opening 513 is greater than the thickness of the plate 22, so that when the rotating shaft 21 rotates in the fixing hole 512, the plate 22 can swing in the width direction of the frame 1, thereby adjusting the air supply angle.

[0081] Furthermore, such as Figures 21-23 As shown, a first notch 514 is also provided on the inner wall of the fixing hole 512, and the first notch 514 is arranged opposite to the third opening 513. The setting of the first notch 514 can reduce the structural strength of the fixing seat 5 at the location of the first notch 514. When the rotating shaft 21 is assembled into the fixing hole 512, it is convenient for the third opening 513 to deform and increase in width, so that the rotating shaft 21 of the air guide plate 2 can be assembled into the fixing hole 512 from the third opening 513.

[0082] Optionally, the first notch 514 is a U-shaped notch, and the inner wall of the first notch 514 is a smooth wall surface, which can avoid stress concentration at the first notch 514 and ensure the reliability of the fixing seat 5.

[0083] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 21-23 As shown, the fixing base body 51 has a second notch 515 on one side of the third opening 513, and the second notch 515 is provided between any two adjacent fixing holes 512. The setting of the second notch 515 can provide deformation space for the hole wall of the fixing hole 512 formed when the third opening 513 deforms, increase the elasticity of the hole walls on both sides of the fixing hole 512, and facilitate the adjustment of the width of the third opening 513 when the rotating shaft 21 is assembled into the fixing hole 512, so as to facilitate the assembly of the rotating shaft 21 of the air guide plate 2 into the fixing hole 512.

[0084] Optionally, the second notch 515 is a U-shaped notch, and the inner wall of the second notch 515 is a smooth wall surface, which can avoid stress concentration at the second notch 515 and ensure the reliability of the fixing seat 5.

[0085] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 23 As shown, the mounting body 51 has a first surface 516 and a second surface 517 respectively connecting the opposite ends of the third opening 513. The first surface 516 and the second surface 517 are located outside the fixing hole 512 and on opposite sides of the third opening 513. The angle between the first surface 516 and the plane perpendicular to the length direction of the mounting body 5 is a1, and the angle between the second surface 517 and the plane perpendicular to the length direction of the mounting body 5 is a2, satisfying a1 < a2. During the swinging process of the air guide plate 2, the plate body 22 of the air guide plate 2 can abut against the first surface 516 and the second surface 517 at two extreme positions, thereby limiting the swinging angle of the air guide plate 2. When the frame 1 is vertically set, the first surface 516 can be located above the second surface 517, and the downward swinging angle of the air guide plate 2 can be greater than the upward swinging angle, which can better press the hot airflow downward, thereby improving the heating effect of the air conditioner using the air outlet structure 100 during heating.

[0086] In some embodiments of this utility model, the fixing seat further includes a base 52, the fixing seat body 51 is disposed on the base 52, the base 52 extends along the length direction of the fixing seat body 51, the fixing seat body 51 and the base 52 are arranged in the width direction of the fixing seat 5, along the airflow direction, the base 52 is located upstream of the fixing seat body 51, the thickness of the base 52 is greater than the thickness of the fixing seat body 51, the base 52 is connected to the frame 1, thereby facilitating the connection between the fixing seat 5 and the frame 1 and improving the structural strength of the fixing seat 5 and the reliability of the connection between the fixing seat 5 and the frame 1.

[0087] Optionally, the fixing base 5 is a single piece, that is, the fixing base body 51, the base 52 and the mounting base 53 described below are a single piece.

[0088] The following describes the air outlet structure 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0089] The air outlet structure 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes a frame 1, the aforementioned fixing seat 5, and a plurality of air guide plates 2.

[0090] Specifically, the fixed base 5 is located inside the frame 1 and its two ends in the length direction are respectively connected to the two ends in the width direction of the frame 1. The multiple rotating shafts 21 of the multiple air guide plates 2 are rotatably located in the multiple fixed holes 512, and the plate body 22 passes through the third opening 513.

[0091] According to the air outlet structure of this utility model embodiment, by setting the above-mentioned fixing base 5, a plurality of fixing holes 512 are provided on the fixing base body 51 at intervals along the length direction of the fixing base body 51, and a third opening 513 is provided on the peripheral wall of the fixing hole 512. The plurality of rotating shafts 21 of the plurality of air guide plates 2 can be respectively provided in the plurality of fixing holes 512 through the plurality of third openings 513, which can improve the reliability of the support and fixing of the air guide plate 2 and ensure the reliability of the rotation of the air guide plate 2.

[0092] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the air outlet structure 100 also includes a linkage assembly 3 and a drive mechanism 4. The linkage assembly 3 is rotatably connected to multiple air guide plates 2, and the drive mechanism 4 is located within the frame 1, used to drive the linkage assembly 3 to move so as to drive the multiple air guide plates 2 to rotate synchronously. In this application, the drive mechanism 4 drives the linkage assembly 3 to move, for example, the clamp 32 or the linkage 31 described below, thereby driving the multiple air guide plates 2 to rotate synchronously. The drive mechanism 4 can be connected to a control terminal via wires or wirelessly. The control terminal can be a remote control or a terminal device such as a mobile phone, thereby controlling the rotation of the air guide plates 2 by controlling the remote control or terminal device, eliminating the need for manual swinging of the air guide plates 2, making it convenient for users.

[0093] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, there are multiple fixing seats 5 spaced apart along the length of the frame 1, which can improve the support effect on the air guide plate 2.

[0094] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 18-21 As shown, one of the fixed seats 5 is provided with a mounting seat 53 for mounting the drive mechanism 4. It is understood that one of the fixed seats 5 is located adjacent to one of the connecting rod assemblies 3, and one of the clamps 32 in the connecting rod assembly 3 is provided with a toothed structure 324. Mounting the drive mechanism 4 on the mounting seat 53 of the fixed seat 5 facilitates the installation of the drive mechanism 4, facilitates the connection between the drive mechanism 4 and the connecting rod assembly 3, and facilitates the movement of the driving connecting rod assembly 3.

[0095] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, multiple linkage assemblies 3 are spaced apart along the length of the frame 1, and the drive mechanism 4 is used to drive one of the linkage assemblies 3 to move. This avoids the problem of poor synchronization of the swinging of the air guide plate 2 at the position far from the linkage assembly 3 when only one linkage assembly 3 is used. It can ensure that the multiple air guide plates 2 swing with high synchronization along the length of the air guide plate 2, and the cost is lower when only one drive mechanism 4 is used.

[0096] For example, in Figure 3In the example shown, there are two connecting rod assemblies 3, which are respectively located at both ends of the length direction of the air guide plate 2. This ensures good synchronization of the swing of multiple air guide plates 2 along the length direction, while also reducing the number of connecting rod assemblies 3, improving assembly efficiency, and reducing costs. In addition, the fact that the two connecting rod assemblies 3 are located at both ends of the length direction of the air guide plate 2 also avoids the connecting rod assemblies 3 being located in the middle area of ​​the air guide plate 2, thus preventing obstruction of airflow and ensuring smooth airflow.

[0097] For example, in Figure 3 In the example shown, there are two linkage assemblies 3, which are respectively located at both ends of the length direction of the air guide plate 2, that is, at both ends of the length direction of the frame 1. One of the clamps 32 in one of the linkage assemblies 3 is provided with a tooth 324. There are three fixing seats 5 arranged at intervals along the length direction of the frame 1. Two fixing seats 5 are respectively located at both ends of the length direction of the frame 1, and the remaining one is located in the middle of the length direction of the frame 1. The fixing seat 5 close to the linkage assembly 3 with the tooth 324 is also provided with a mounting seat 53 for fixing the drive mechanism 4.

[0098] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, for reference Figure 3 , Figures 12-17 The linkage assembly 3 is located within the frame 1 and includes a connecting rod 31 and multiple clamps 32. The connecting rod 31 extends along the width direction of the frame 1, and the multiple clamps 32 correspond to multiple air guide plates 2. Specifically, each air guide plate 2 has a clamp 32 rotatably mounted at both ends. One end of the clamp 32 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 31, and the other end has a first mating groove 3231 that mates with the rotating shaft 21. The peripheral wall of the first mating groove 3231 has a first opening 32311 that avoids the plate body 22. The rotating shafts 21 of the multiple air guide plates 2 are respectively assembled in the first mating grooves 3231 of the multiple clamps 32 of the linkage assembly 3, and the linkage assembly 3 can make the multiple air guide plates 2 rotate synchronously.

[0099] For example, when one of the air guide plates 2 rotates, since the plate body 22 of the air guide plate 2 is engaged in the first opening 32311, it can drive the clamp 32 to rotate, thereby driving the connecting rod 31 to move along the width direction of the frame 1. During the movement, the connecting rod 31 drives the other clamps 32 to rotate, which in turn drives the other air guide plates 2 to rotate with their corresponding clamps 32. When driving multiple air guide plates 2 to rotate, at least one air guide plate 2 can be driven to rotate, or the connecting rod 31 can be driven to move, or at least one clamp 32 can be driven to rotate.

[0100] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 18 As shown, combined Figure 9 , Figures 15-17 The drive mechanism 4 includes a drive motor 41 and a gear 42. The drive motor 41 is located inside the frame 1, and the gear 42 is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 41. One of the multiple clamps 32 in the linkage assembly 3 connected to the drive mechanism 4 has a tooth 324 with the axis of the rotation shaft 21 (or the axis of the first mating groove 3231) as its axis. The tooth 324 is located at one axial end of the clamp 32 and meshes with the gear 42. The drive motor 41 can drive the gear 42 to rotate. The gear 42 drives the tooth 324 to rotate around the axis of the rotation shaft 21 or the axis of the first mating groove 3231 through its engagement with the tooth 324. This drives the entire clamp 32 to rotate around the axis of the rotation shaft 21 or the axis of the first mating groove 3231, and at the same time drives the air guide plate 2 connected to the clamp 32 to rotate. The clamp 32 also drives the linkage 31 to move, thereby driving the other air guide plates 2 to rotate synchronously.

[0101] like Figures 15-17 As shown, the tooth portion 324 can be part of a complete gear. The tooth portion 324 may include multiple tooth structures spaced apart circumferentially along the axis of the first mating groove 3231. The axis of the complete gear is collinear with the axis of the first mating groove 3231, that is, the pitch circle of the complete gear containing the tooth portion 324 and the first mating groove 3231 are concentric circles. After the fixture 32 and the rotating shaft 21 are assembled, the axis of the complete gear is collinear with the axis of the rotating shaft 21. The tooth portion 324 is located at one end of the fixture 32 along the axis of the first mating groove 3231 to facilitate mating with the gear 42.

[0102] For example, in Figure 3 In the example shown, there are two connecting rod assemblies 3, which are respectively located at both ends of the air guide plate 2 along its length. When the air outlet structure 100 is assembled, the clamps 32 of the connecting rod assembly 3 are fixed to both ends of the air guide plate 2. One air guide plate 2 has a clamp 32 with teeth 324 and a clamp 32 without teeth 324 installed at both ends, while the other air guide plates 2 have clamps 32 without teeth 324 installed at both ends.

[0103] In addition, both ends of the air guide plate 2 along its length can be rotatably connected to the frame 1. In the example of this application, since the connecting rod assembly 3 is located at one end of the length of the air guide plate 2, and the first mating groove 3231 of the clamp 32 has an end wall 3232 at one axial end, the air guide plate 2's rotation shaft 21 cannot be rotatably mounted on the frame 1 in the example of this application.

[0104] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, the clamp 32 is located at one end of the rotation shaft 21 along its length. The axial end of the first mating groove 3231 has an end wall 3232 for sealing that end. It can be understood that, along the axial direction of the first mating groove 3231, only one end of the first mating groove 3231 is open, and the other end is closed. After the rotation shaft 21 of the air guide plate 2 is fitted into the first mating groove 3231, the axial end of the rotation shaft 21 of the air guide plate 2 can abut against the end wall 3232, preventing the clamp 32 from moving along the length of the rotation shaft 21 of the air guide plate 2, thus ensuring the reliability of the relative fixation between the clamp 32 and the rotation shaft 21.

[0105] In addition, when the air guide plate 2 is assembled with the fixture 32, the rotating shaft 21 of the air guide plate 2 can be inserted into the first mating groove 3231 through the open end of the first mating groove 3231 of the fixture 32, and the side wall of the first mating groove 3231 plays a positioning role.

[0106] Furthermore, such as Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, along the axial direction of the first mating groove 3231, a boss 3233 is provided on the side of the end wall 3232 facing away from the first mating groove 3231. The clamp 32 is installed at one end of the rotating shaft 21 in the axial direction. After the clamp 32 and the air guide plate 2 are assembled, the clamp 32 is located at both ends of the length direction of the frame 1. The boss 3233 can abut against the two inner wall surfaces of the frame 1 in the length direction, thereby limiting the clamp 32 and ensuring that there are gaps between the multiple clamps 32 and the inner wall surfaces of the frame 1 and the gap distance is approximately the same.

[0107] In some embodiments of this utility model, the single-sided gap between the two opposing walls of the first opening 32311 and the two opposing walls of the plate 22 is 0-0.5mm. For example, the single-sided gap between the two opposing walls of the first opening 32311 and the two opposing walls of the plate 22 is 0.1mm, 0.2mm, 0.3mm, 0.4mm, or 0.5mm, etc. On the one hand, it facilitates the installation between the air guide plate 2 and the clamp 32, and facilitates the assembly of the rotating shaft 21 of the air guide plate 2 into the first mating groove 3231. On the other hand, it allows the clamp 32 to be adapted to different types of air guide plates 2, improving the versatility of the clamp 32's application, and avoiding the need to set a clamp 32 for each type of air guide plate 2, thus reducing development and mold opening costs.

[0108] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 11 As shown, the connecting rod 31 is provided with second mating grooves 311 spaced apart along the length of the connecting rod 31, and the peripheral wall of the second mating groove 311 has a second opening 312, as shown. Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, the clamp 32 includes a rotating shaft portion 321, a fixing portion 323, and a connecting portion 322. The rotating shaft portion 321 and the fixing portion 323 are spaced apart. The rotating shaft portion 321 has a rotating shaft that mates with a second mating groove 311. A first mating groove 3231 is provided in the fixing portion 323. The axis of the rotating shaft is parallel to the axis of the first mating groove 3231. The connecting portion 322 is used to connect the rotating shaft portion 321 and the fixing portion 323. There may be one connecting portion 322 or multiple connecting portions 322 spaced apart. The connecting portion 322 can connect the rotating shaft portion 321 and the fixing portion 323 and also serves to space the rotating shaft portion 321 and the fixing portion 323 apart. For example, in Figure 12 and Figure 13 In the example shown, there are two connecting parts 322 spaced apart along the axis of the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is located between the two connecting parts 322. The clamp 32 and the connecting rod 31 can be detachably connected. The rotating shaft of the rotating shaft part 321 can be fitted into the second mating groove 311 through the second opening 312 and rotate within the second mating groove 311.

[0109] like Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, the toothed portion 324 and the rotating shaft are arranged sequentially along the length of the air guide plate 2, and the rotating shaft portion 321 is located close to the first mating groove 3231.

[0110] In some examples of this utility model, such as Figure 14 As shown, the second opening 312 faces one side of the center plane of the clamp 32 parallel to the axis of the rotating shaft and the axis of the first mating groove 3231, which facilitates mating with the plate 22 of the air guide plate 2 and facilitates driving the air guide plate 2 to rotate.

[0111] Furthermore, the width of the second opening 312 is d2, and the diameter of the rotating shaft is D2, satisfying that d2 < D2. This prevents the rotating shaft from coming out of the second mating groove 311, ensuring the reliability of the rotating shaft's fixation within the second mating groove 311. When the rotating shaft is assembled within the second mating groove 311, the clamps 32 on both sides of the second opening 312 can deform in a direction away from each other, thereby allowing the rotating shaft to be assembled into the second mating groove 311.

[0112] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 18-21 As shown, the mounting base 53 is provided with a fixing post 531, and the drive motor 41 is connected to the fixing post 531 by fasteners, which can improve the reliability of fixing the drive motor 41 and simplify the fixing method of the drive motor 41.

[0113] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 18-21As shown, the mounting base 53 has a receiving cavity 532 for accommodating the gear 42, and the side of the receiving cavity 532 facing the tooth portion 324 is open. This prevents the placement of the gear 42 from affecting the installation of the drive motor 41. In addition, placing the gear 42 inside the receiving cavity 532 can protect the gear 42. Furthermore, the open side of the receiving cavity 532 facing the tooth portion 324 facilitates the partial extension of the gear 42 to engage with the tooth portion 324.

[0114] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the air outlet structure 100 also includes louvers 6, which are disposed within the frame 1. Multiple louvers 6 are spaced apart along the length of the frame 1 and extend along the width of the frame 1. Along the airflow direction, the louvers 6 are located upstream of the air guide plate 2. The air guide plate 2 can guide airflow in the width direction of the frame 1, and the louvers 6 can guide airflow in the length direction of the frame 1, thereby improving the smoothness of the airflow. The louvers 6 can be fixed to the frame 1 at an angle, or they can be rotatably disposed within the frame 1. When the louvers 6 are rotatably disposed within the frame 1, they can be manually adjusted by swinging, or driven by a drive device; there are no limitations on this.

[0115] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 , Figure 26 and Figure 27 As shown, the two ends of the louver 6 in the length direction are connected to the two ends of the frame 1 in the width direction. This facilitates the fixing of the louver 6 and improves the reliability of the fixing of the louver 6. Specifically, the upper frame 13 and the lower frame 14 of the frame 1 are provided with a plurality of third mounting holes 18 spaced apart along the length direction of the frame 1. The two ends of the louver 6 in the length direction are respectively provided with fourth mounting holes 61. The two ends of the louver 6 in the length direction are respectively connected to the two ends of the frame 1 in the width direction by fasteners. The fasteners are inserted into the third mounting holes 18 and the fourth mounting holes 61 to realize the connection between the louver 6 and the frame 1.

[0116] Optionally, such as Figure 27 As shown, along the width direction of the louver 6, the thickness of the louver 6 first increases and then decreases, that is, along the width direction of the louver 6, the louver 6 has a structure that is thick in the middle and thin at both sides, which facilitates the guidance of airflow.

[0117] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 28-31As shown, the plate 22 includes a snap-fit ​​portion 221 and a blade portion 222. The snap-fit ​​portion 221 is connected to the rotating shaft 21, and the blade portion 222 is connected to the snap-fit ​​portion 221. The snap-fit ​​portion 221 connects the rotating shaft 21 and the blade portion 222. The snap-fit ​​portion 221 includes a first surface and a second surface that are arranged opposite to each other in the thickness direction. The air guide plate 2 includes various shapes, such as the four shapes shown in the figure. The dimensions of the rotating shaft 21 of different air guide plates 2 are basically the same. The snap-fit ​​portion 221 and the blade portion 222 of different shaped air guide plates 2 can be different. The shapes of the first surfaces of the snap-fit ​​portion 221 of the four types of air guide plates 2 are basically the same, while the second surfaces of the air guide plates 2 can be the same or different. The narrowest dimension of the snap-fit ​​portion 221 of the four types of air guide plates 2 is h1, and the widest dimension is h2. The h1 of different air guide plates 2 is basically the same. The first opening 32311 of the first mating groove 3231 of the clamp 32 includes a third surface and a fourth surface that are arranged opposite to each other. After the air guide plate 2 is inserted into the first mating groove 3231, the third surface is opposite to the first surface of the air guide plate 2 locking part 221, and the fourth surface is opposite to the second surface of the air guide plate 2 locking part 221. The first surface and the third surface can have the same shape, and the fourth surface can have the same shape as the second surface of the air guide plate 2 with the largest h2 of several different air guide plate 2 locking parts 221.

[0118] In this application, during the assembly of the air outlet structure 100, clamps 32 are installed at both ends of the rotation shaft 21 of the air guide plate 2. One end of one air guide plate 2 is fitted with a clamp 32 with teeth 324 and the other end with a clamp 32 without teeth 324. The other ends of the rotation shaft 21 of the other air guide plates 2 are fitted with clamps 32 without teeth 324. Then, the air guide plates 2 are installed on the fixed base 5. Specifically, the air guide plates 2 fitted with clamps 32 with teeth 324 are installed at the corresponding positions of gears 42 on the fixed base 5, which has a drive mechanism 4 mounting base 53. After installation, the gears 42 and teeth 324 on the fixed base 5 mesh. When the drive motor 41 rotates, it drives the gears 42 to rotate. The gears 42, through meshing motion, drive the rack to rotate, thereby causing the air guide plates 2 fitted with teeth 324 to swing. This, in turn, drives the other air guide plates 2 to swing together via the connecting rod 31, thus guiding the airflow.

[0119] In this application, the air guide plate 2 has at least two states, the first being a cooling and air supply mode, such as... Figure 7 As shown, the air guide plate 2 is basically horizontal by default. The second state is the heating mode, where the air guide plate 2 is tilted downwards by default, and the swing angle is 40°-70°, preferably 50°-60°.
