[0023] The present application will be described in detail below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments:
[0024] REFERENCE Figure 1The utility model provides a center point finding device, including: baffle 1, baffle 1 is connected with a motor output shaft 2, it can swing under the drive of motor, baffle 1 is provided with at least two hollowed-out slots 11, the center point of device is located between at least two hollowed-out slots 11, at least two hollowed-out slots 11 are symmetrically arranged;At least two first photoelectric sensors 3, the light emitting element and photosensitive element of first photoelectric sensor 3 are arranged respectively above and below hollowed-out slot 11, and the detection light emitted by first photoelectric sensor 3 can pass through hollowed-out slot 11.
[0025] Wherein, baffle 1 is fan-shaped, at least two hollowed-out slots 11 are symmetrically distributed on baffle 1, and limit part 4 is arranged on the two sides of baffle 1.
[0026] The above-mentioned device works, for example, Figure 1 When both first photoelectric sensors 3 can detect light signals, it indicates that the current fan has found the center point. Figure 2 When only the right first photoelectric sensor 3 detects light signals, it indicates that the current baffle 1 needs to rotate to the right, that is, the fan swings to the right to find the center point. Figure 3 Similarly, when only the left first photoelectric sensor 3 detects light signals, the fan needs to rotate to the left to find the center point until both first photoelectric sensors 3 detect light signals.
[0027] The above-mentioned center point finding device can be applied to the fan, which is used to confirm the center point when the fan swings, and the fan further includes an air outlet assembly, the air outlet assembly includes a cover body, a fan blade arranged in the cover body, and a fan arranged in the cover body and used to drive the fan blade to rotate, and the output shaft 2 of the motor is directly or indirectly connected to the cover body, which is used to drive the cover body to swing.
[0028] When the output shaft 2 of the motor rotates, the cover body will rotate because the output shaft 2 is fixed to the cover body, that is, the entire air outlet assembly rotates to realize the swing, and then the above-mentioned center point finding device is used, the baffle 1 is driven by the motor to rotate synchronously, and the center point of the fan swing is located, and then the angle and speed of the fan swing can be adjusted according to requirements.
[0029] After the center point finding device is applied to the fan, the current swing direction of the fan can be identified when the fan is turned on, and then the fan can swing to the center point to avoid collision; based on the at least two first photoelectric sensors 3 arranged, the center point can be accurately located during the fan swing, and then more intelligent operations can be realized.
[0030] In another embodiment, for example, Figure 4As shown, the baffle 1 of the center point finding device is further provided with a plurality of arc-shaped arranged hole positions 12, the light emitting element and the photosensitive element of the second photoelectric sensor 5 are arranged above and below the hole positions 12 respectively, when the baffle 1 rotates, the detection light of the second photoelectric sensor 5 can pass through the hole positions 12 or be blocked between two hole positions 12.
[0031] Among them, the plurality of hole positions 12 can be arranged with the hollow groove 11 and the same center, and the plurality of hole positions 12 can be equidistant and symmetrically distributed with the hollow groove 11.
[0032] The first photoelectric sensor 3 and the arc-shaped hollow groove 11 of the last embodiment are used to find the center point of the fan, and the second photoelectric sensor 5 and the hole position 12 in the embodiment are used to position the angle of the fan.

In work, when both first photoelectric sensors 3 can detect light signals, it means that the current fan has found the center point. After finding the center point, when the fan swings to the right, the left first photoelectric sensor 3 detects the light signal, and the right first photoelectric sensor 3 does not detect the light signal, at this time, the second photoelectric sensor 5 detects how many times the light signal, which represents how many hole positions 12 the fan rotates, and after conversion, the angle of the fan rotation can be obtained, and the swing angle of the fan can be easily set by cooperating with the swing angle of the fan (not more than the limiting part 4).
[0033] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, and is not used to limit the present application, any modification, equivalent replacement and improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
