[0026] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0027] Please refer to Figure 1 The embodiment of the utility model provides an adjustable air inlet grille structure of air compressor, including frame 1, blade 2 and drive assembly. Frame 1 is installed on the shell of compressor body (not shown in the drawing), to define the ventilation opening for air circulation on the shell. A plurality of blades 2 are installed in the ventilation opening relatively parallel, and both ends of each blade 2 are rotatably connected to frame 1. Drive assembly is drivingly connected with blade 2, and is configured to be able to drive a plurality of blades 2 to rotate synchronously, so as to change the air inlet area of the ventilation opening by adjusting the opening angle of blade 2, thereby realizing the adjustment of air inlet amount.
[0028] As Figure 2 , Figure 3 The drive assembly in the embodiment of the utility model includes handle 3, rocker 4 and connecting rod 5. Among them, rocker 4 is rotatably installed on the inner side wall of frame 1, and the rotating shaft 41 of rocker 4 penetrates out of frame 1 and is fixedly connected with handle 3, and rotating handle 3 can drive rocker 4 to rotate. The free end of rocker 4 is drivingly connected with connecting rod 5, and each blade 2 is drivingly connected with connecting rod 5, so that the free end of rocker 4 can drive connecting rod 5 to move up and down when rocker 4 rotates, thereby driving a plurality of blades 2 to flip synchronously through connecting rod 5, realizing the adjustment of air inlet amount.
[0029] As an optional driving connection mode, as shown inFigure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the free end of the rocker arm 4 can be hinged to the connecting rod 5 via a pin 6. The mounting hole of the pin 6 can be a circular hole or an oblong hole. The oblong hole can improve the problem of motion jamming caused by assembly errors.
[0030] As another optional transmission connection method, such as Figure 5 As shown, the free end of the rocker arm 4 can also be connected to the connecting rod 5 via a transmission rod 7. Both ends of the transmission rod 7 are hinged to the rocker arm 4 and the connecting rod 5 respectively. When the rocker arm 4 rotates, its free end can drive the connecting rod 5 to move up and down via the transmission rod 7. Different ratios of the rotation angles of the rocker arm 4 and the blade 2 can be achieved through different length designs of the rocker arm 4, transmission rod 7, and connecting rod 5. Preferably, in this embodiment of the invention, the distance from the rotation shaft 41 of the rocker arm 4 to its free end is greater than the distance from the rotation shaft 21 of the blade 2 to the connecting rod 5. Therefore, by rotating the handle 3 and the rocker arm 4 at small angles, a large angle of rotation of the blade 2 can be achieved, thereby enabling rapid adjustment of the blade 2's angle.
[0031] To ensure driving stability, this embodiment of the invention uses two connecting rods 5. The middle sections of both ends of the blade 2 are rotatably connected to the frame 1 via their pivots 21. The two connecting rods 5 are arranged parallel to each other on both sides of the pivot 21 and are both connected to the blade 2, allowing adjacent blades 2 to form a stable parallelogram structure with the two connecting rods 5. The pivot 41 of the rocker arm 4 is also located in its middle section. Both ends of the rocker arm 4 are connected to the two connecting rods 5, allowing the rocker arm 4 to rotate simultaneously, driving the two connecting rods 5 to move in opposite directions, thereby causing the blades 2 to rotate more smoothly.
[0032] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, a positioning pin mounting hole 8 and a positioning pin 9 matching the positioning pin mounting hole 8 can be provided on the connecting rod 5, and multiple positioning holes 10 for the positioning pin 9 to be inserted are correspondingly provided on the frame 1 (e.g. Figure 2 As shown), the connecting rod 5 is positioned by the positioning pin 9 and the positioning holes 10 at different positions, thereby locking the blade 2 at different opening angles. Similarly, as... Figure 4 As shown, the positioning pin mounting hole 8 and the positioning pin 9 can also be set on the rocker arm 4. The rocker arm 4 can be positioned by the positioning pin 9 and the positioning holes 10 in different positions, which can also achieve locking of the blade 2 at different opening angles.
[0033] In addition, blade 2 can adopt a single-piece structure, an edge-bent reinforced structure, or a box-shaped structure formed by welding, etc. It is necessary to ensure that blade 2 has a large rigidity to prevent blade 2 from deforming during rotation.
[0034] The principle and implementation mode of the present application are described by using specific examples in the present application, and the above examples are only used for helping to understand the technical scheme and core idea of the present application; it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the technical scheme recorded in the foregoing examples can be modified, or some technical features can be replaced equivalently; and the modification or replacement does not make the essence of the corresponding technical scheme deviate from the scope of the technical scheme of the embodiments of the present application.
