[0006] Furthermore, the limiting device is located on the side of the control unit away from the connecting rod.
[0007] The technical effects achieved by adopting this technical solution are: it facilitates user operation and optimizes the internal space layout, making the entire device more compact and stable.
[0008] Furthermore, the air guiding device also includes a fixed bracket, which works in conjunction with the control unit to restrict the movement of the control unit.

Detailed Implementation
[0034] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an air guiding device and an air conditioner, which enables the air conditioner to achieve both manual and automatic air sweeping modes.
[0035] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0036] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This utility model provides an air guiding device 1, including: an air guiding link 11, a driving device 12, and blades 13. The air guiding link 11 is connected to the driving device 12, and the driving device 12 controls the movement of the air guiding link 11. The air guiding link 11 includes a link portion 111 and a control portion 112. The control portion 112 is disposed on the link portion 111 and includes a limiting device 1121 and a moving device 1123. The blades 13 are mounted on the link portion 111. The manual control limiting device 1121 can manually adjust the blades 13, and the moving device 1123 can automatically adjust the blades 13.
[0037] In this embodiment, the user can choose to use the manual adjustment blade 13 or the automatic adjustment blade 13 to meet the requirements through the limiting device 1121 and the moving device 1123, which improves the flexibility of operation.
[0038] Specifically, the air guide rod 11 is connected to the drive device 12, which drives the air guide rod 11 to move left and right. The air guide rod 11 is divided into a connecting rod part 111 and a control part 112. Blades 13 are evenly installed on the connecting rod part 111. One end of the blade 13 is fixed, and the other end moves left and right with the connecting rod part 111 to achieve left and right air sweeping. The control part 112 is divided into a limiting device 1121 and a moving device 1123. When the limiting device 1121 is switched, the air guide rod 11 is manually adjusted to adjust the air sweeping angle. When the moving device 1123 is switched, the air guide rod 11 is automatically swept.
[0039] See Figure 3The limiting device 1121 is located on the side of the control unit 112 away from the connecting rod 111.
[0040] In this embodiment, user operation is facilitated and the internal space layout is optimized, making the entire device more compact and stable.
[0041] Specifically, the position of the limiting device 1121 is adjacent to the moving device 1123, and the moving device 1123 is located between the limiting device 1121 and the connecting rod portion 111.
[0042] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The air guide device 1 also includes a fixed bracket 14, which cooperates with the control unit 112 to restrict the movement of the control unit 112.
[0043] In this embodiment, the cooperation between the fixed bracket 14 and the control unit 112 can effectively limit unnecessary movement of the control unit 112 and ensure the safe operation of the equipment.
[0044] Specifically, the fixed bracket 14 cooperates with the control unit 112 to limit the air guide rod 11 to move left and right within a limited range, thus avoiding unnecessary displacement.
[0045] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The limiting device 1121 includes a positioning post 141 and a slot band. The slot band 1126 has a plurality of protrusions 1127 arranged in sequence, wherein the vertical extension length of the protrusions 1127 at both ends exceeds the extension length of the middle protrusion 1127. The positioning post 141 is set on the fixed bracket 14, and two protrusions 1127 form a stop buckle 1122. The positioning post 141 cooperates with the stop buckle 1122.
[0046] In this embodiment, the positioning post 141 and the stop buckle work together to precisely control the rotation angle of the blade 13, while ensuring a stable connection between the various components; the protrusions 1127 at both ends of the slot strip 1126 are higher than the protrusion 1127 in the middle, preventing the customer from accidentally pulling the positioning post 141 out of the slot strip, thus ensuring the user's safety.
[0047] Specifically, the positioning post 141 is set on the fixed bracket 14. The positioning post 141 is the key point for controlling the manual and automatic switching of the air guide device 1. The limiting device 1121 includes a slot band 1126. The slot band 1126 is provided with serrated protrusions 1127 arranged in sequence. The two outermost serrated protrusions 1127 on the slot band 1126 are higher than the middle serrated protrusion 1127. A stop buckle 1122 is formed between the two serrated protrusions 1127. The positioning post 141 cooperates with the stop buckle 1122 to realize the air sweeping of the air conditioner 2. When the positioning post 141 cooperates with different stop buckles 1122, the blade 13 that cooperates with the connecting rod part 111 will rotate at different angles. This is manual control.
[0048] Preferably, the slot strip 1126 is made of plastic and has a certain degree of toughness, allowing for slight deformation, which facilitates the movement of the positioning post 141 on the slot strip 1126 to fix different stop buckles 1122.
[0049] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 The fixed bracket 14 also includes a locking component 142, which cooperates with the control unit 112.
[0050] In this embodiment, the control unit 112 is prevented from generating other abnormal vibrations that could affect the normal operation of the air guide device 1 during left and right movement.
[0051] Specifically, the fixing component is provided with a locking component 142, which abuts against the control unit 112 to restrict the air guide rod 11 from swinging left and right inside the air conditioner 2, so as to prevent it from moving outside the fixed range and affecting other components inside the air conditioner 2.
[0052] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 The moving device 1123 is located on the side of the control unit 112 near the connecting rod 111. The moving device 1123 is provided with a smooth belt 1124, and the positioning post 141 cooperates with the smooth belt 1124. When the positioning post 141 cooperates with the smooth belt 1124, the locking component 142 does not contact the control unit 112.
[0053] In this embodiment, the smooth belt 1124 on the moving device 1123 is designed to allow the positioning post 141 to slide on it, while the locking component 142 does not contact the control unit 112 at this time, thereby ensuring that the blade 13 can move smoothly and without obstruction during the automatic adjustment process.
[0054] Specifically, the moving device 1123 is provided with a relatively smooth smooth belt 1124. When the positioning post 141 is set on the smooth belt 1124, the driving device 12 drives the air guide rod 11 to move left and right, so that the moving device 1123 also moves left and right. The fixed positioning post 141 moves on the surface of the moving device 1123. This is automatic control.
[0055] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 The connecting rod 111 is provided with an adjustment device 1111, which is located on the side of the connecting rod 111 near the control unit 112 and is used for switching between manual and automatic modes.
[0056] In this embodiment, the adjustment device 1111 is provided to facilitate the user's switching between manual control and automatic control.
[0057] Specifically, the connecting rod 111 is provided with an adjustment device 1111, which is a lever, and is located on both sides of the control unit 112 to facilitate the automatic and manual switching of the air guide device 1; by moving the adjustment device 1111, the control unit 112 is separated from the positioning column 141, and the limiting device is located below the moving device 1123, making it easier to switch between manual and automatic control.
[0058] See Figure 6 and Figure 7 The control unit 112 is provided with an adjustment notch 1125. When switching between manual and automatic modes, the positioning column 141 switches through the adjustment notch 1125.
[0059] In this embodiment, the positioning column 141 switches between manual and automatic control by adjusting the notch 1125, making the operation more effortless for the user.
[0060] Specifically, the adjustment notch 1125 is located on both sides of the control unit 112. During the switching between manual control and braking control, and during the switching between manual control and automatic control, the positioning pin 141 exits from the slot belt 1126 and enters the smooth belt 1124 through the adjustment notch 1125.
[0061] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The air guide device 1 also includes a connecting part 15, which is located on the side of the connecting rod part 111 away from the control part 112. The connecting part 15 is provided with a fixing post 151, which is connected to the drive device 12.
[0062] In this embodiment, the connecting part 15 and the fixing post 151 therein ensure a firm connection between the air guide rod 11 and the driving device 12, thus ensuring the reliability of the air guide device 1.
[0063] Specifically, the connecting part 15 is located at one end of the air guide rod 11. The connecting part 15 is provided with a fixing post 151, which cooperates with the drive device 12 to fix it and prevent the air guide rod 11 from getting out of control when moving left and right.
[0064] See Figure 1This utility model provides an air conditioner 2, which includes any of the above technical solutions. The air conditioner 2 includes a drive device 12, which cooperates with the air guide device 1.
[0065] In this embodiment, the drive device 12 provides the power for the air guide rod 11 to move left and right, ensuring the efficiency of power transmission.
[0066] Specifically, one end of the air conditioner 2 is provided with a drive device 12, which is a motor installed inside the air conditioner 2. One end of the motor is provided with a buckle, and the two fixing posts 151 of the connecting part 15 pass through the buckle and lock each other. The motor provides power for the air guide rod 11 to move left and right.
[0067] This utility model solves the problem of how to enable the air conditioner 2 to achieve both manual and automatic air-sweeping modes. Specifically, when switching from automatic to manual air-sweeping mode, the air guide rod is moved to the leftmost or rightmost end via the adjusting device 1111, causing the positioning post 141 to disengage from the smooth belt 1124 and be placed on the slot belt 1126 of the limiting device 1121. The slot belt 1126 is a plastic part with a certain degree of toughness, allowing for slight deformation, and is positioned above the positioning post 141. Then, the adjusting device 1111 causes the slot belt 1126 to move left and right when it engages with the positioning post 141; manual air-sweeping... When switching between different blade angles 13, the adjusting device 1111 moves the air guide rod 11 to the leftmost or rightmost end, presses the slot strip 1126 inward to disengage the positioning post 141 from the notches on both sides of the slot strip 1126, then presses the slot strip 1126 inward to fix the positioning post 141 into the stop buckle 1122 of the slot strip 1126, and then moves the blade 13 left and right to move the positioning post 141 between multiple stop buckles 1122, thereby achieving the effect of manual air sweeping and setting.
[0068] While the present invention has been disclosed above, it is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various modifications and alterations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
