[0002] The air outlet filter is an important component of an air conditioner, mainly used to regulate and distribute the air blown out by the air conditioner.

[0003] Blowout grilles are typically fitted with insulation boards to retain heat between hot and cold air. Currently, the insulation boards are installed by applying an adhesive to them, then baking the boards in an oven to heat the adhesive. Finally, the insulation boards are attached to the sides of the blowout grille using the adhesive. This installation method is complex and costly, and the insulation boards cannot be removed from the blowout grille. If production is not done properly, the entire blowout grille may become unusable. Furthermore, it is inconvenient to replace the insulation boards or the blowout grille individually, resulting in high operating costs. Utility Model Content

[0031] Please see Figures 1 to 5 One embodiment of this utility model provides a blower assembly, comprising:

[0032] Blow out the grid body 10;

[0033] Several clamping parts 20 are provided on the side of the blow-out grid body 10, and a clamping gap 30 is formed between the clamping parts 20 and the blow-out grid body 10.

[0034] The insulation board 40 is at least partially detachably installed within the clamping gap 30. The clamping gap 30 secures the insulation board 40, ensuring accurate and stable fixation. Furthermore, it facilitates easy installation and disassembly; even if problems arise during installation, it can be disassembled and reinstalled, simplifying the production and maintenance process. This results in more stable quality of the blown grid assembly and reduced production costs.

[0035] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some alternative embodiments, the clamping gap 30 is formed with an installation opening 31, which gradually widens in the direction outward from the clamping gap 30. The installation opening 31 adopts a flared design to facilitate the insertion of the insulation board 40 into the clamping gap 30.

[0036] In some alternative embodiments, a guide ramp 32 is formed on the clamping part 20 within the mounting opening 31. The guide ramp 32 gradually moves away from the blow-out grid body 10 in a direction toward the outside of the clamping gap 30, causing the mounting opening 31 to widen. The guide ramp 32 can guide the insulation board 40 into the clamping gap 30. Of course, the widened design of the mounting opening 31 can also be achieved in other ways. For example, the blow-out grid body 10 can be designed with an inclined portion located at the mounting opening 31. The inclined portion causes the mounting opening 31 to widen, and the insulation board 40 can be guided into the clamping gap 30 through the inclined portion.

[0037] The clamping gap 30 can be detachably fixed to the insulation board 40 through an interference fit. Alternatively, the clamping gap 30 can also be detachably connected to the insulation board 40 through a snap-fit ​​structure. For example, the insulation board 40 has a groove, and the clamping gap 30 has an elastic snap-fit. The snap-fit ​​engages with the groove, thus positioning the insulation board 40 within the clamping gap 30 and preventing it from detaching, thereby fixing the insulation board 40. In this embodiment, the insulation board 40 and the clamping gap 30 are interference-fitted. The clamping part 20 and the blow-out grid body 10 work together to clamp the insulation board 40, enabling quick assembly and disassembly of the insulation board 40.

[0038] In some alternative embodiments, the clamping gap 30 is formed with an installation opening 31, and the width of the clamping gap 30 gradually increases in the direction close to the installation opening 31, so that after the insulation board 40 enters the installation opening 31, it gradually achieves an interference fit with the clamping gap 30. When the insulation board 40 initially enters the clamping gap 30, the degree of interference fit between the insulation board 40 and the clamping gap 30 is relatively light, so the insulation board 40 experiences relatively little resistance, allowing the insulation board 40 to be installed smoothly.

[0039] In some optional embodiments, the clamping gap 30 forms a positioning space 33 and a clamping space 34. The mounting opening 31, the positioning space 33, and the clamping space 34 are sequentially connected. The difference between the width of the insulation board 40 and the width of the positioning space 33 is not greater than the difference between the width of the insulation board 40 and the width of the clamping space 34. After the insulation board 40 passes through the mounting opening 31, the positioning space 33 positions the insulation board 40, but not too tightly, to prevent the insulation board 40 from being unable to enter the clamping space 34. The portion of the insulation board 40 located in the clamping space 34 has a large interference fit with the clamping space 34, ensuring sufficient clamping force on the insulation board 40, making the insulation board 40 stably installed and not easily loosened. When it is necessary to remove the insulation board 40, the clamping force on the insulation board 40 is reduced after the insulation board 40 is pulled out from the clamping space 34, and the insulation board 40 can be pulled out from the positioning space 33 and the installation port 31 relatively easily.

[0040] In some optional embodiments, a plurality of reinforcing ribs 21 are connected between the clamping part 20 and the blow-out grid body 10. The reinforcing ribs 21 can ensure a stable connection between the clamping part 20 and the blow-out grid body 10, resulting in a high connection strength and stable fit to fix the insulation board 40. In this embodiment, since the portion of the clamping part 20 located in the clamping space 34 needs to apply greater force to the insulation board 40, the reinforcing ribs 21 are arranged in the clamping space 34 to improve the connection strength between the portion of the clamping part 20 located in the clamping space 34 and the blow-out grid body 10, thereby improving the structural stability of the clamping part 20 and ensuring that the clamping part 20 can apply sufficient clamping force to the insulation board 40.

[0041] In order to avoid the reinforcing ribs 21 from obstructing the arrangement of the insulation board 40, in some optional embodiments, the insulation board 40 is provided with a plurality of clearance grooves 41, at least a portion of the reinforcing ribs 21 is located in the clearance grooves 41, thereby avoiding interference between the reinforcing ribs 21 and the insulation board 40.

[0042] The clamping part 20 can be designed as a long strip adapted to the insulation board 40. In this case, only one clamping part 20 can be provided. In some optional embodiments, the blowout grid assembly includes multiple clamping parts 20, which are arranged sequentially along the extension direction of the blowout grid body 10. The insulation board 40 and multiple clamping gaps 30 are detachably assembled. The number of clamping parts 20 can be appropriately designed according to the number and length of the insulation board 40. For example, two clamping parts 20 can be arranged on the blowout grid body 10, with the clamping parts 20 located at both ends of the insulation board 40. When the insulation board 40 is long, a clamping part 20 located in the middle of the insulation board 40 can be added to improve the stability of the insulation board 40.

[0043] The aforementioned airflow grille assembly can be applied to an air conditioner, which includes an airflow grille assembly as described above.

[0044] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
