Detailed Implementation
[0037] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0038] Floor fans, as a common cooling device in homes, are mainly divided into two types based on product positioning: mechanical and electronic. Among them, electronic floor fans, due to their intelligence and convenience, are usually used with a remote control, providing users with the convenience of remote operation.
[0039] However, remote controls, being small and easily lost during storage, are a common problem, especially during seasons when electric fans are used less frequently. Electric fans are typically used only in summer in most parts of my country, and need to be stored away during other seasons. Because of their small size, users often overlook their location when storing them, making them difficult to find when the season changes.
[0040] Furthermore, while the control buttons are concentrated on the remote control, providing a convenient remote operation experience, the function display remains on the unit itself. However, the display interface is usually small, and users may find it difficult to clearly see the content during remote operation, which causes some inconvenience.
[0041] Furthermore, electronic floor fans typically feature a built-in display, meaning the unit needs a separate display panel for operation, display, and communication with the fan head. However, this display panel is not essential for operation; it's merely an additional function to enable control via the unit itself. While this design satisfies some users who prefer direct operation, it increases the overall cost and reduces the fan's cost-effectiveness. Especially for users who prefer remote control operation, the built-in display panel seems somewhat redundant.
[0042] One of the core concepts of this utility model is that, when the remote control is connected to the panel body, the panel slides through at least one guide rail and at least one slide groove to accommodate the remote control in the receiving cavity, thereby integrating and storing the remote control on the fan housing and avoiding the problem of the remote control being easily lost.
[0043] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The diagram shows a schematic diagram and a partially enlarged schematic diagram of a fan according to an embodiment of the present invention, which may specifically include the following structure:
[0044] The main unit 10 and the remote control 20.
[0045] The fuselage 10 includes a panel 11 and a fuselage housing 12.
[0046] The fuselage housing 12 has a receiving cavity, and at least one guide rail 1211 is provided on the inner sidewall 121 forming the receiving cavity. The receiving cavity refers to the space within the fuselage housing 12 used to receive or store components.
[0047] A guide rail is a mechanical structure typically used to provide support for linear motion or positioning. Guide rails can be fixed to a structure or used in conjunction with sliders or grooves to achieve relative motion. Guide rails are used for positioning and guiding sliding components, ensuring they move along a predetermined path. They are also used to fix and support components, providing a stable structure. When used with grooves, guide rails enable relative motion and are commonly used in mechanical structures requiring precise control.
[0048] At least one guide rail 1211 is designed on the inner wall 121 forming the receiving cavity to provide positioning and guidance for the sliding component. The guide rail is made of high-strength steel with a hardened surface treatment to ensure wear resistance and service life. The guide rail is straight and its length covers the entire inner wall of the receiving cavity, ensuring that the sliding component moves along a predetermined path. The design of the guide rail takes into account the weight and movement speed of the sliding component, ensuring sufficient support and stability.
[0049] The panel 11 is disposed within the receiving cavity.
[0050] The panel 11 includes a panel body 111 and an outer side wall 112 disposed along the panel body 111. The panel body 111 is the front of the panel, and the outer side wall 112 disposed along the panel body 111 is the side of the panel. The panel body 111 and the housing 12 are located on the same plane, thereby maintaining the integrity of the fan enclosure.
[0051] The outer side wall 112 has at least one groove 1121, and the at least one groove 1121 of the outer side wall 112 corresponds to at least one guide rail 1211 on the inner side wall 121.
[0052] The panel 11 is disposed within the receiving cavity of the housing 12. Specifically, at least one groove 1121 on the outer side wall 112 of the panel 11 corresponds to at least one guide rail 1211 on the inner side wall 121 of the housing 12. The groove 1121 and the guide rail 1211 are designed to enable the panel 11 to slide and be positioned within the housing 12, ensuring that the panel 11 can move smoothly within the housing 12 while maintaining stability and accuracy.
[0053] For example, the guide rail 1211 can be a rib, a common mechanical structure used to enhance strength and rigidity, and also serves as a support and guide structure for sliding parts. The rib is made of high-strength aluminum alloy with a hardened surface treatment to ensure wear resistance and service life. Of course, the specific implementation of the guide rail 1211 can be set according to actual needs in practical applications, and this embodiment of the utility model does not limit this.
[0054] The shape and size of the slide groove 1121 should match the guide rail 1211 to ensure that the sliding component moves along a predetermined path. For example, the slide groove 1121 is rectangular in shape, 5 mm wide and 3 mm deep, with an anti-slip surface treatment to provide good sliding friction. The guide rail 1211 is rectangular in shape, 5 mm wide and 3 mm high, with a hardened surface treatment to ensure wear resistance and service life. The slide groove and guide rail are fitted with a sliding fit and a positioning fit to ensure the linear movement and precise positioning of the panel within the housing. Of course, the shape and size of the slide groove 1121 and the guide rail 1211 can be set according to actual needs in practical applications, and this embodiment of the invention does not limit this.
[0055] When the remote controller 20 is connected to the panel body 111 of the panel 11, the panel 11 slides through the at least one guide rail 1211 and the at least one slide groove 1121 to accommodate the remote controller 20 in the receiving cavity.
[0056] The size of the remote control 20 corresponds to the size of the panel body 111 of the panel 11. Specifically, the size of the remote control 20 is the same as the size of the panel body 111 of the panel 11. Figure 2 The diagram shows another structural schematic of a fan according to an embodiment of the present invention. Users can remotely control the floor fan using the remote control 20. When the floor fan is not in use, the remote control 20 can be integrated and stored in the body shell of the floor fan.
[0057] Reference Figure 3The diagram shows a schematic of a sliding structure of a fan according to an embodiment of the present invention. The user faces the panel body 111 of the panel 11, aligns the remote control 20 with the panel body 111 of the panel 11, and makes the remote control 20 contact with the panel body 111 of the panel 11. After the remote control 20 contacts the panel body 111 of the panel 11, the user pushes the remote control 20 forward. This force of pushing the remote control 20 forward is transmitted to the panel body 111 of the panel 11, so that the sliding groove 1121 of the panel body 111 of the panel 11 slides in cooperation with the guide rail 1211 on the inner side wall 121 of the housing 12, thereby allowing the panel 11 to slide deeper into the receiving cavity of the housing 12, so as to leave a corresponding space in the receiving cavity for the remote control 20 to be received in the receiving cavity.
[0058] A fan according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a body and a remote control; the body includes a panel and a housing, the housing having a receiving cavity and at least one guide rail on the inner sidewall forming the receiving cavity, the panel being disposed within the receiving cavity, the panel including a panel body and an outer sidewall disposed along the panel body, the outer sidewall having at least one groove; the at least one groove on the outer sidewall corresponds to at least one guide rail on the inner sidewall, when the remote control is connected to the panel body, the panel slides through the at least one guide rail and the at least one groove, so that the remote control is accommodated within the receiving cavity, thereby integrating and storing the remote control within the fan's housing, avoiding the problem of the remote control being easily lost.
[0059] In this embodiment of the utility model, the remote control 20 is magnetically connected or snap-fitted to the panel body 111 of the panel 11.
[0060] Magnetic and snap-fit connections are two common mechanical connection methods used to fix two or more components together. A magnetic or snap-fit connection is designed between the remote control 20 and the panel body 111 of the panel 11 to fix and position the remote control 20, ensuring its stability and convenience during use.
[0061] Magnetic connectors are used to secure and position the remote control. The magnetic connectors are simple to operate, requiring no tools, and allow for quick and easy disassembly and installation. Magnetic force provides a stable connection, ensuring the remote control is in the intended position. The magnetic connectors are designed with a sealed structure, providing dust and water protection and ensuring the safety of internal components.
[0062] The snap-fit connection is used to secure and position the remote control. It provides a firm hold, ensuring the remote control is in the intended position. The snap-fit structure is rationally designed for high durability. The snap-fit connection is designed with an anti-loosening structure to ensure the remote control will not loosen during use.
[0063] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 In this embodiment of the utility model, the remote control includes an upper shell 21 and a lower shell 22; the upper shell 21 and the lower shell 22 are connected.
[0064] The lower shell 22 of the remote control includes a lower shell surface 221, the lower shell surface 221 having a first preset number of first mounting holes 2211 and a first magnet 2212 disposed in the first mounting holes 2211.
[0065] For example, the first preset quantity is 2, the lower shell surface 221 has 2 first mounting holes 2211, and 2 first magnets 2212 are provided in the 2 first mounting holes 2211. The 2 first mounting holes 2211 can be distributed in the upper half and the lower half of the lower shell surface 221 respectively.
[0066] The panel body 111 of the panel 11 has the first preset number of second mounting holes and a second magnet 1112 disposed in the second mounting holes.
[0067] When the lower shell 22 of the remote control is connected to the panel body 111 of the panel 11, the position of the second mounting hole corresponds to the position of the first mounting hole 2211.
[0068] For example, the lower shell surface 221 of the remote control lower shell 22 has two first mounting holes 2211, and two first magnets 2212 are provided in the two first mounting holes 2211. The panel body 111 of the panel 11 has two second mounting holes and second magnets 1112 provided in the second mounting holes. When the remote control lower shell 22 is connected to the panel body 111 of the panel 11, that is, when the user faces the panel body 111 of the panel 11, aligns the remote control 20 with the panel body 111 of the panel 11, and makes the remote control 20 contact with the panel body 111 of the panel 11, the positions of the two first mounting holes 2211 of the lower shell surface 221 correspond to the positions of the two second mounting holes of the panel body 111, so that the two first magnets 2212 of the two first mounting holes 2211 attract each other with the second magnets 1112 in the two second mounting holes, thereby making the remote control 20 and the panel 11 magnetically connected.
[0069] In this embodiment of the utility model, the fuselage housing 12 includes a front fuselage housing 13.
[0070] The outer wall 112 of the panel 11 has a second preset number of third mounting holes 1122 and a third magnet 1123 disposed in the third mounting holes 1122.
[0071] Specifically, the outer wall 112 of the panel 11 has four third mounting holes 1122 and four third magnets 1123 disposed in the four third mounting holes 1122.
[0072] The front housing 13 of the fuselage has a receiving cavity, and the inner sidewall 121 forming the receiving cavity has a second preset number of fourth mounting holes 131 and a fourth magnet 132 disposed in the fourth mounting holes 131.
[0073] Specifically, the inner sidewall 121 of the front housing 13 of the fuselage has four fourth mounting holes 131 and four fourth magnets 132 disposed in the four fourth mounting holes 131.
[0074] When the remote control 20 is not connected to the panel body 111 of the panel 11, the position of the fourth mounting hole 131 corresponds to the position of the third mounting hole 1122.
[0075] Specifically, when the remote control 20 is not connected to the panel body 111 of the panel 11, that is, when the user remotely controls the fan using the remote control, the panel 11 is housed in the receiving cavity of the front shell 13. The positions of the four third mounting holes 1122 on the outer side wall 112 of the panel 11 correspond to the positions of the four fourth mounting holes 131 on the inner side wall 121 of the front shell 13. As a result, the four third magnets 1123 at the positions of the four third mounting holes 1122 on the outer side wall 112 of the panel 11 attract each other to the four fourth magnets 132 at the positions of the four fourth mounting holes 131 on the inner side wall 121 of the front shell 13.
[0076] In this embodiment of the utility model, the lower shell 22 of the remote control further includes a lower shell sidewall 222 disposed along the lower shell surface 221; the lower shell sidewall 222 has a second preset number of fifth mounting holes 2221 and a fifth magnet disposed in the fifth mounting holes.
[0077] Specifically, the lower shell sidewall 222 has four fifth mounting holes 2221 and four fifth magnets disposed within the four fifth mounting holes 2221.
[0078] When the remote controller 20 is connected to the panel body 111 of the panel 11, the position of the fourth mounting hole 131 corresponds to the position of the fifth mounting hole 2221.
[0079] Specifically, when the remote control 20 is connected to the panel body 111 of the panel 11, i.e., when the user needs to install the remote control 20 into the fan housing for integrated storage, the user can face the panel body 111 of the panel 11, align the remote control 20 with the panel body 111 of the panel 11, and make the remote control 20 contact with the panel body 111 of the panel 11. After the remote control 20 contacts the panel body 111 of the panel 11, push the remote control 20 forward. This force of pushing the remote control 20 forward is transmitted to the panel body 111 of the panel 11, so that the sliding groove 1121 of the panel body 111 of the panel 11 slides in cooperation with the guide rail 1211 on the inner side wall 121 of the housing 12, thereby allowing the panel 11 to slide deeper into the receiving cavity of the housing 12, so as to leave corresponding space in the receiving cavity for the remote control 20 to be accommodated in the receiving cavity. Figure 6 and Figure 7 At this time, the four fourth mounting holes 131 on the inner sidewall 121 of the front cover 13 of the device body, which were originally aligned with the four third mounting holes 1122 on the outer sidewall 112 of the panel 11, are now aligned with the four fifth mounting holes 2221 on the lower sidewall 222 of the remote control 20. As a result, the four fourth magnets 132 at the positions of the four fourth mounting holes 131 on the inner sidewall 121 of the front cover 13 of the device body, which were originally magnetically attracted to the four third magnets 1123 at the positions of the four third mounting holes 1122 on the outer sidewall 112 of the panel 11, are now magnetically attracted to the four fifth magnets at the positions of the four fifth mounting holes 2221 on the lower sidewall 222 of the remote control 20.
[0080] In this embodiment of the utility model, the fuselage housing 12 further includes a rear fuselage housing 14, which is connected to the front fuselage housing 13.
[0081] Specifically, the rear cover 14 is installed on the front cover 13 of the body, which can limit the sliding of the panel 11 while ensuring the integrity of the appearance and the assembly of the complete body.
[0082] In this embodiment of the utility model, the upper shell 21 of the remote control has a handle groove 211.
[0083] Specifically, the upper shell 21 of the remote control has a handle groove 211. The handle groove 211 refers to a groove or protrusion designed on the upper shell 21 of the remote control for the user to pull out the remote control, ensuring that the user can easily separate the remote control 20 from the front shell 13 of the main body. The handle groove 211 is also called a latch. The types of latches include straight latches, which extend along a straight direction and are usually used to provide a straight grip and pull out; curved latches, which extend along a curved direction and are used to provide a curved grip and pull out; and grid latches, where multiple latches intersect to form a grid, providing stronger grip and pull-out support. The size and shape of the latches should be designed according to the user's grip and pull-out needs to ensure grip stability and ease of operation. The surface of the latches should be treated with anti-slip to ensure that the user will not slip when gripping and pulling out.
[0084] When a user needs to remove the remote control 20 stored on the main body 10 to remotely control the fan, the user can pinch the handle groove 211 on the upper shell 21 of the remote control and pull it outward. At this time, the four fifth magnets on the lower shell side wall 222 of the lower shell 22 of the remote control will disengage from the four fourth magnets 132 on the front shell 13 of the main body. At the same time, due to the attraction between the two first magnets 2212 on the lower shell side 221 of the lower shell 22 of the remote control and the two third magnets 1123 on the panel body 111, the panel 11 moves outward with the remote control 20. Finally, the remote control is removed from the main body. The four third magnets 1123 on the outer side wall 112 of the panel 11 are attracted to the four fourth magnets 132 on the front shell 13 of the main body, ensuring the integrity of the appearance. The remote control can then be taken out for remote operation.
[0085] When the user needs to store the remote control 20 on the body 10, the remote control 20 is aligned with the panel body 111 of the panel 11 and pressed onto the panel body 111. The four third magnets 1123 on the outer wall 112 of the panel 11 disengage from the four fourth magnets 132 on the front shell 13 of the body. The panel 11 slides into the body 10 through the cooperation of at least one guide rail 1211 and at least one slide groove 1121. After installation, the four fifth magnets on the lower shell side wall 222 of the lower shell 22 of the remote control attract the four fourth magnets 132 on the front shell 13 of the body. The panel 11 supports the remote control 20, and the remote control 20 can be operated by pressing the buttons on the body 10. At the same time, the remote control 20 can be stored away for seasonal changes.
[0086] In this embodiment of the invention, the sliding distance of the groove 1121 is the same as the thickness of the remote controller 20.
[0087] Specifically, when the user needs to store the remote control 20 on the body 10, the remote control 20 is aligned with the panel body 111 of the panel 11 and pressed onto the panel body 111. The four third magnets 1123 on the outer side wall 112 of the panel 11 disengage from the four fourth magnets 132 on the front shell 13 of the body. The panel 11 slides through the at least one guide rail 1211 and the at least one slide groove 1121. The sliding distance of the slide groove 1121 is the same as the thickness of the remote control 20, thereby ensuring the appearance integrity of the remote control 20 when stored on the body 10.
[0088] When a user needs to remove the remote control 20 stored on the main body 10 to remotely control the fan, the user can pinch the handle groove 211 on the upper shell 21 of the remote control and pull it outward. At this time, the four fifth magnets on the lower shell side wall 222 of the lower shell 22 of the remote control will disengage from the four fourth magnets 132 on the front shell 13 of the main body. At the same time, since the two first magnets 2212 on the lower shell side 221 of the lower shell 22 of the remote control are attracted to the two third magnets 1123 on the panel body 111, the panel 11 slides through the at least one guide rail 1211 and the at least one sliding groove 1121. The sliding distance of the sliding groove 1121 is the same as the thickness of the remote control 20. As the remote control 20 moves outward, the remote control is finally removed from the main body. The four third magnets 1123 on the outer side wall 112 of the panel 11 are attracted to the four fourth magnets 132 on the front shell 13 of the main body, ensuring the integrity of the appearance. The remote control can then be taken out for remote operation.
[0089] In this embodiment of the invention, the second preset number of third mounting holes 1122 are symmetrically distributed.
[0090] Specifically, the second preset number of third mounting holes 1122 are symmetrically distributed. The four third mounting holes 1122 can be symmetrically distributed from left to right. The left outer wall 112 has two third mounting holes 1122, and the right outer wall 112 has two third mounting holes 1122 symmetrically distributed.
[0091] In this embodiment of the invention, the upper shell of the remote control has a display module.
[0092] Specifically, the remote control has a display module on its upper casing, which can be a display screen.
[0093] When using a remote control to operate an electronic floor fan, although the control buttons are concentrated on the remote, providing a convenient remote control experience, the function display is still retained on the fan itself. However, the display interface is usually small, and users may find it difficult to clearly see the displayed content during remote operation, which causes some inconvenience.
[0094] Furthermore, electronic floor fans typically feature a built-in display, meaning the unit needs a separate display panel for operation, display, and communication with the fan head. However, this display panel is not essential for operation; it's merely an additional function to enable control via the unit itself. While this design satisfies some users who prefer direct operation, it increases the overall cost and reduces the fan's cost-effectiveness. Especially for users who prefer remote control operation, the built-in display panel seems somewhat redundant.
[0095] The remote control features a display screen on its top casing, solving the problem of difficulty in seeing the device's display during long-distance operation. This also eliminates the need for physical buttons and displays on the device itself, reducing costs. The remote control can be mounted directly onto the device for operation. Furthermore, the integrated remote control and device design prevents loss during seasonal storage.
[0096] This embodiment of the invention relates to a floor fan, specifically a floor fan with an integrated display screen and remote control, eliminating the need for a separate display panel on the main unit. This provides a more flexible and convenient operating method for users with different habits. Users who prefer remote control operation can easily remove the remote for remote control. The remote control has a built-in display interface, allowing users to view the interface up close without worrying about the display screen being unclear on the main unit. Furthermore, the entire unit includes a built-in buzzer to respond to remote control operations, further enhancing the convenience and user experience.
[0097] For users who prefer operating the entire unit via buttons, the remote control can be installed on the main unit for intuitive and convenient operation. When storing the unit for the season, the remote control can also be integrated into the storage, effectively solving the problem of the remote control being easily lost and ensuring it can be quickly found the next time it's needed.
[0098] This operating mode eliminates the display panel on the chassis, simplifying the structure and significantly reducing overall cost, providing users with a more cost-effective fan. This innovative design allows users to choose the most suitable operating method based on their habits, enjoying a convenient and comfortable user experience whether using remote control or direct operation.
