Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power component technology, and in particular to a new type of power component for an electric air outlet. Background Technology

[0002] An electric air vent is a device that uses an electric motor to control the angle and direction of the vent blades, thereby regulating airflow and improving indoor comfort and air quality. Electric air vents can automatically adjust the angle and direction of the vent to deliver precise airflow based on indoor temperature and airflow requirements. For example, in winter, an electric air vent can blow hot air downwards to quickly raise the indoor temperature; in summer, it can blow cool air upwards to create natural convection and improve cooling efficiency.

[0003] Existing electric air vents generally employ a spline connection between the motor and the drive blades. This connection method does have certain advantages, such as a relatively robust structure due to the large contact area between the spline and the motor, ensuring stable operation of the air vent. However, this connection method also brings a series of problems that cannot be ignored:

[0004] (1) Spline connection results in a larger air outlet size: This is because the spline itself requires a certain amount of space to cooperate with the motor and blades, thereby increasing the overall volume of the air outlet. During installation, this larger size will occupy more structural space, causing some inconvenience to the installation work. Especially in some places with limited space, such as small rooms or compact cabinets, this large air outlet may appear particularly obtrusive and inconvenient.

[0005] (2) Splines, as auxiliary accessories, increase costs: In the production process of electric air outlets, the manufacturing and processing of splines require certain cost inputs;

[0006] (3) Through spline connection, the transmission of force will be lost: During the spline transmission process, due to the existence of friction and gap, some power will be converted into heat energy and lost. This not only reduces the transmission efficiency of the motor, but may also cause the air outlet to generate additional noise and vibration during operation.

[0007] (4) The spline connection makes the air outlet structure complex and increases the difficulty of operation for workers: During installation and maintenance, workers need to be familiar with the structure and principle of the spline in order to operate correctly. This undoubtedly increases the learning cost and difficulty of the workers. Especially in some places where frequent maintenance or replacement of parts is required, this complex structure may cause great trouble for maintenance work.

[0008] To address this, a novel power component for an electric air outlet is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0009] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the aforementioned problems in traditional technologies and provide a new type of power component for electric air outlets.

[0010] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives and effects, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0011] A novel power assembly for an electric air outlet includes a transmission assembly, which comprises a drive motor, a groove, a connecting seat, a connecting slot, a drive blade, a connecting shaft, an upper driven blade, an upper mounting bracket, a lower mounting bracket, and a lower driven blade.

[0012] Two grooves are symmetrically formed on the outer wall of the output shaft of the drive motor. The connecting seat is fixedly connected to the top of the active blade. The connecting groove is formed on the upper surface of the connecting seat. The bottom end of the active blade is inserted into the top of the connecting shaft. The upper driven blades are rotatably connected to the inside of the upper mounting bracket. The lower driven blades are rotatably connected to the inside of the lower mounting bracket. The bottom end of the connecting shaft is fixedly connected to the top end of one of the lower driven blades.

[0013] More preferably, the output shaft of the drive motor is inserted into the inner wall of the connecting groove.

[0014] More preferably, the transmission assembly further includes two linkage brackets and a through hole;

[0015] The through holes are equidistantly opened inside the linkage frame.

[0016] More preferably, the two linkage frames are located inside the upper mounting frame and the lower mounting frame, respectively.

[0017] More preferably, the active blade, the upper driven blade, and the lower driven blade are all rotatably connected to the through hole via a pin, and the connecting shaft is located between the upper mounting bracket and the lower mounting bracket.

[0018] More preferably, the transmission assembly is externally provided with a main body assembly, the main body assembly including an air outlet pipe and a mounting base;

[0019] The air outlet duct is installed on one side of the mounting base.

[0020] More preferably, both the upper mounting bracket and the lower mounting bracket are installed inside the air outlet duct.

[0021] More preferably, the drive motor is mounted on the upper surface of the air outlet duct.

[0022] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0023] This invention uses a drive motor to rotate the active blades, which transmit power to the connecting shaft and the linkage frame. When the linkage frame moves, it drives the upper driven blades to rotate, and the connecting shaft drives one lower driven blade to rotate. With the cooperation of the lower linkage frame, the lower driven blade drives all the lower driven blades to rotate synchronously, thus realizing the linkage between the upper and lower driven blades and adjusting the airflow direction at the air outlet. Compared with the prior art, this invention eliminates the spline, reducing costs. Moreover, the drive motor is directly connected to the active blades, reducing force loss. The overall transmission structure is simpler, reducing the difficulty of operation for workers.

[0024] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the above advantages at the same time. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0033] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0034] Please see Figures 1-6 As shown, this embodiment is a power assembly for a novel electric air outlet, including a transmission assembly 101. The transmission assembly 101 includes a drive motor 11, a groove 12, a connecting seat 13, a connecting groove 14, an active blade 15, a connecting shaft 16, an upper driven blade 17, an upper mounting bracket 18, a lower mounting bracket 19, and a lower driven blade 20.

[0035] Two grooves 12 are symmetrically formed on the outer wall of the output shaft of the drive motor 11. The connecting seat 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the active blade 15. The connecting groove 14 is formed on the upper surface of the connecting seat 13. The output shaft of the drive motor 11 is inserted into the inner wall of the connecting groove 14. The shape of the connecting groove 14 is adapted to the shape of the output shaft of the drive motor 11, so that the drive motor 11 can be directly inserted into the connecting groove 14. At this time, the drive motor 11 is directly connected to the active blade 15. Compared with the prior art, this utility model eliminates the spline, reduces costs, and the drive motor 11 is directly connected to the active blade 15, reducing force loss. The overall transmission structure is simpler and reduces the difficulty of operation for workers.

[0036] The bottom end of the active blade 15 is inserted into the top of the connecting shaft 16. The upper driven blades 17 are all rotatably connected to the inside of the upper mounting bracket 18, and the lower driven blades 20 are all rotatably connected to the inside of the lower mounting bracket 19. The bottom end of the connecting shaft 16 is fixedly connected to the top end of one of the lower driven blades 20. The transmission assembly 101 also includes two linkage brackets 21 and through holes 22. The through holes 22 are equidistantly opened inside the linkage brackets 21. Through the cooperation of the connecting shaft 16, the active blade 15, the upper driven blades 17, the lower driven blades 20, the upper mounting bracket 18 and the lower mounting bracket 19, the airflow direction of the air outlet can be adjusted.

[0037] In one embodiment, two linkage frames 21 are located inside the upper mounting frame 18 and the lower mounting frame 19, respectively. The active blade 15, the upper driven blade 17, and the lower driven blade 20 are all rotatably connected to the through hole 22 via pins. The connecting shaft 16 is located between the upper mounting frame 18 and the lower mounting frame 19. When adjusting the airflow direction, the active blade 15 is driven to rotate by the drive motor 11. The active blade 15 transmits power, which drives the connecting shaft 16 and the linkage frame 21 to move respectively. When the linkage frame 21 moves, it drives the upper driven blade 17 to move in tandem. At the same time, the connecting shaft 16 drives one lower driven blade 20 to rotate. With the cooperation of the lower linkage frame 21, the lower driven blade 20 drives all the lower driven blades 20 to rotate synchronously, thereby realizing the linkage of the upper driven blade 17 and the lower driven blade 20 and achieving the adjustment of the airflow direction at the air outlet.

[0038] In one embodiment, a main body component 301 is provided on the outside of the transmission component 101, and the main body component 301 includes an air outlet pipe 31 and a mounting base 32.

[0039] The air outlet duct 31 is installed on one side of the mounting base 32. The upper mounting bracket 18 and the lower mounting bracket 19 are both installed inside the air outlet duct 31. By installing the transmission assembly 101 on the air outlet duct 31, the air outlet direction of the air outlet duct 31 can be electrically adjusted.

[0040] In one embodiment, the drive motor 11 is mounted on the upper surface of the air outlet duct 31. The drive motor 11 is fixedly connected to the air outlet duct 31 by screws. The detachable connection facilitates future maintenance.

[0041] When this utility model is in operation: the drive motor 11 drives the active blade 15 to rotate, and the active blade 15 transmits power, which drives the connecting shaft 16 and the linkage frame 21 in the upper mounting frame 18 to move respectively. When the linkage frame 21 in the upper mounting frame 18 moves, it drives the upper driven blade 17 to move in linkage. At the same time, the connecting shaft 16 drives a lower driven blade 20 to rotate. With the cooperation of the linkage frame 21 in the lower mounting frame 19, the lower driven blade 20 drives all the lower driven blades 20 to rotate synchronously, thereby completing the linkage of the upper driven blade 17 and the lower driven blade 20, and realizing the adjustment of the air outlet direction.

[0042] Compared with the existing technology, this utility model eliminates the spline by directly connecting the drive motor 11 to the active blade 15, reducing force loss, simplifying the overall transmission structure, and reducing the difficulty of operation for workers.
