TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to air conditioning technical field, specifically, relate to a kind of air deflector assembly and air conditioner thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards, the requirements of air conditioning performance and user experience are also increasing. In modern home life, people's requirements for air conditioners are no longer limited to simple cooling and heating functions. Usually, the air deflection system of the air conditioner is optimized to improve the air outlet comfort.
[0003] In the prior art, air deflection is carried out by using an air deflector assembly. The air deflector assembly is usually installed on an indoor air conditioner in the form of an air deflector assembly rod and an air deflector plate. The air deflector assembly is usually arranged at the air outlet of the air conditioner. Due to the mechanical gap and design defects in the connection structure, the air deflection surface is prone to deformation, which hinders the air outlet and causes air turbulence, noise, and affects user experience. Second, the air deflector assembly is prone to loosen after a period of use. When the air conditioner is blowing air, the loosening of the air deflector assembly will affect the original air deflection channel, thereby affecting the air deflection effect and user experience. SUMMARY
[0004] Therefore, the utility model aims to solve at least one of the above problems and defects in the prior art.
[0005] One of the purposes of the utility model is to provide an air deflector assembly. The air deflector assembly is provided with a mounting groove and an arc-shaped plate to ensure the air deflection effect of the air deflector assembly while strengthening the structural strength of the air deflector assembly.
[0006] Another purpose of the utility model is to provide an indoor air conditioner comprising the above air deflector assembly. By optimizing the structure of the air deflector assembly, the installation stability of the air deflector assembly and the air deflector plate on the air conditioner is improved.
[0007] The utility model adopts the following technical solution: an air deflector assembly is installed on an indoor air conditioner, which comprises: an arc-shaped plate, a mounting groove, and a rib group. The arc-shaped plate is arranged upstream of the air outlet of the indoor air conditioner. The mounting groove is arranged downstream of the air outlet of the indoor air conditioner. The rib group is arranged on the inner wall of the mounting groove. The rib group is provided with a plurality of longitudinal ribs and a plurality of transverse ribs. The two ends of the longitudinal rib are connected to the two ends of the arc-shaped plate, respectively. The transverse rib is arranged along the axis direction of the air deflector assembly.
[0008] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this solution are as follows: An arc-shaped plate is provided on the side of the air guide assembly near the air outlet. This plate guides the airflow, making the airflow more uniform, reducing turbulence and resistance, thereby improving the air conditioning's delivery efficiency and comfort. The ribs installed on the inner wall of the mounting groove enhance the overall structural strength of the air guide assembly. The arc-shaped plate is supported by the ribs, preventing deformation. The air outlet is subjected to continuous airflow impact during operation, especially when adjusting the airflow direction, requiring the air guide assembly to withstand a certain force. The transverse and longitudinal ribs prevent deformation or damage to the air guide assembly during long-term use, ensuring its structural stability.
[0009] Furthermore, the mounting slot has a semi-elliptical structure.
[0010] Compared to existing technologies, the technical benefits of this solution include: the semi-elliptical structure offers unique advantages in guiding airflow. After airflow enters the area of the air guide component from the outlet, the semi-elliptical outline acts as a natural converging channel, focusing the initially dispersed airflow and facilitating more precise control over its direction and diffusion range. Furthermore, as the air continues to diffuse into the room after passing through the air guide component, this shape allows the airflow to spread more gently and evenly, preventing excessively turbulent local airflow or sudden changes in wind direction, thereby improving the comfort and uniformity of indoor air supply.
[0011] Furthermore, the mounting groove includes several mounting sub-grooves, the sidewalls of which are composed of longitudinal and transverse ribs, and the mounting sub-grooves have the same shape.
[0012] Compared with existing technologies, the technical advantages achieved by this solution are as follows: the sidewalls of the mounting sub-slots are composed of longitudinal and transverse ribs, and all mounting sub-slots have the same shape. This segmented structural design further enhances the overall stability of the air guiding assembly. By setting up mounting sub-slots and incorporating longitudinal and transverse ribs within each sub-slot, the overall mechanical strength of the air guiding assembly is improved. This design not only extends the service life of the air guiding assembly but also reduces structural damage caused by long-term use, providing stable support for the curved plate and ensuring its effective air guiding performance.
[0013] Furthermore, the longitudinal stiffeners (20) are set to 8-10;
[0014] And / or, longitudinal ribs are evenly distributed longitudinally along the inner wall of the mounting slot.
[0015] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by adopting this technical solution are as follows: by reasonably setting the number and distribution of longitudinal ribs, the air guide component can maintain a stable shape during operation, reduce deformation caused by airflow impact, extend service life, and thus improve the stability and durability of the overall structure, without adding too much weight to the air guide component due to too many ribs.
[0016] Furthermore, the longitudinal ribs are elliptical structures, with their axes parallel to the axis of the air guide assembly.
[0017] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by adopting this technical solution are: the longitudinal ribs of the elliptical structure can better withstand airflow impact and mechanical vibration, reduce deformation or damage caused by stress concentration, and thus extend the service life of the air guide assembly.
[0018] Furthermore, the air guide assembly also includes connectors, which are located on the arc-shaped plate, with transverse ribs connecting two adjacent connectors.
[0019] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this technical solution are as follows: the transverse ribs connect two adjacent connectors to form a frame structure, effectively dispersing stress, reducing deformation or damage to the connectors caused by airflow impact or mechanical vibration, and ensuring the strength of the connectors.
[0020] Furthermore, the rib assembly and the mounting groove are integrally formed.
[0021] Compared to existing technologies, this technical solution achieves the following advantages: the rib assembly and mounting groove are integrally formed, eliminating gaps or weak connections between them. Compared to structures formed by splicing or assembly, the integrated structure can better withstand external forces. Whether under the continuous impact of airflow during air conditioner operation or the force transmitted by the movement of the air guide plate, it is less prone to structural deformation or damage due to loose connections or separation, thus ensuring the stability of the airflow from the air conditioner and reducing noise generation.
[0022] Furthermore, this utility model also provides an indoor air conditioner, which includes: an indoor air conditioner housing and the air guide component in the above technical solution, wherein the air guide component is rotatably connected to the air outlet of the indoor air conditioner housing.
[0023] This indoor air conditioner incorporates the technical effects of any of the aforementioned air guiding components, which will not be elaborated upon here.
[0024] Furthermore, the indoor air conditioner also includes: an air guide plate; the connector includes a first connector and a second connector, the first connector being connected to the indoor air conditioner housing and the second connector being connected to the air guide plate.
[0025] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this technical solution are as follows: the connectors, air guide components, and air guide plates work together to guide the airflow to be evenly distributed in the room when the air conditioner is running. Through the adjustment function of the air guide plate, users can adjust the direction and intensity of the airflow as needed, thereby obtaining a more comfortable user experience.
[0026] Furthermore, the indoor air conditioner also includes a drive unit, which is located at the end of the air guide assembly and drives the air guide plate.
[0027] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by adopting this technical solution are as follows: the drive component is placed close to the air guide assembly, which shortens the power transmission path and reduces energy loss and delay. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0033] 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.
[0034] See Figures 1-4 The present invention adopts the following technical solution: an air guide assembly 1, installed on an indoor air conditioner, comprising: an arc plate 7, a mounting groove 2, and a rib group 3. The arc plate 7 is positioned upstream of the air outlet of the indoor air conditioner, and the mounting groove 2 is positioned downstream of the air outlet of the indoor air conditioner. The rib group 3 is disposed on the inner wall of the mounting groove 2. The rib group 3 is provided with a plurality of longitudinal ribs 20 and a plurality of transverse ribs 21. The two ends of the longitudinal ribs 20 are respectively connected to the two ends of the arc plate 7, and the transverse ribs 21 are arranged along the axial direction of the air guide assembly 1.
[0035] An arc-shaped plate 7 is provided on the side of the air guide assembly 1 near the air outlet. The arc-shaped plate 7 guides the airflow, making the airflow more uniform, reducing airflow turbulence and resistance, thereby improving the air delivery efficiency and comfort of the air conditioner. The rib group 3 set in the inner wall of the mounting groove 2 can enhance the overall structural strength of the air guide assembly 1. With the support of the rib group 3, the arc-shaped plate 7 is prevented from deforming. The air outlet of the air conditioner is subjected to continuous airflow impact during operation, especially when adjusting the airflow direction, the air guide assembly 1 needs to withstand a certain force. The transverse ribs 21 and longitudinal ribs 20 can prevent the air guide assembly from deforming or being damaged during long-term use, ensuring its structural stability.
[0036] For example, the transverse rib 21 is one, which cooperates with the longitudinal rib 20 in position and structure to improve the overall strength of the air guide assembly 1.
[0037] A well-designed layout of the transverse ribs 21 enhances the strength of the air guide assembly 1 along its length, reducing its vibration under airflow. Vibration of the air guide assembly 1 can generate noise, impacting user experience. The synergistic effect of the transverse ribs 21 and the longitudinal ribs 20 strengthens the structural strength of the curved plate 7, thereby improving the user experience.
[0038] Specifically, see Figures 1-4 The mounting slot has a semi-elliptical structure.
[0039] The semi-elliptical structure of the air conditioner offers unique advantages in guiding airflow. After the airflow from the air outlet enters the area where the air guide component 1 is located, the semi-elliptical outline acts like a natural channel, converging the airflow and allowing the relatively dispersed air to be concentrated, facilitating more precise control of its direction and diffusion range. Furthermore, as the air continues to diffuse into the room after passing through the air guide component 1, this shape ensures a smoother and more even distribution of airflow, preventing excessively turbulent local airflow or sudden changes in airflow direction, thereby improving the comfort and uniformity of indoor air supply.
[0040] Specifically, see Figures 1-4 The mounting groove 2 includes several mounting sub-grooves 22. The sidewalls of the mounting sub-grooves 22 are composed of longitudinal ribs 20 and transverse ribs 21. The mounting sub-grooves 22 have the same shape.
[0041] The sidewalls of the mounting sub-slots 22 are composed of longitudinal ribs 20 and transverse ribs 21, and all mounting sub-slots 22 have the same shape. This segmented structural design further enhances the overall stability of the air guide assembly 1. By setting up the mounting sub-slots 22 and providing longitudinal ribs 20 and transverse ribs 21 within each mounting sub-slot 22, the overall mechanical strength of the air guide assembly 1 is improved. This design not only increases the service life of the air guide assembly 1 but also reduces structural damage caused by long-term use, providing stable support for the arc-shaped plate 7 and ensuring the air guiding effect of the arc-shaped plate 7.
[0042] Specifically, see Figures 1-4 The longitudinal ribs 20 are evenly spaced within the mounting groove 2, with 8-10 longitudinal ribs 20; and / or, the longitudinal ribs 20 are evenly distributed longitudinally along the inner wall of the mounting sub-groove 22.
[0043] The longitudinal ribs 20 are evenly spaced within the mounting slots 22. This design makes the structure of the air guide assembly 1 more uniform, which can better disperse the airflow impact force and mechanical stress, thereby improving the stability and durability of the overall structure, without adding too much weight to the air guide assembly 1 due to too many ribs.
[0044] Specifically, see Figure 1 The longitudinal rib 20 is an elliptical structure, and the axis of the longitudinal rib 20 is set parallel to the axis of the air guide assembly 1.
[0045] The longitudinal ribs 20 and transverse ribs 21 are designed to cooperate with the mounting groove 2, ensuring a uniform weight distribution of the air guide assembly 1. This reduces vibration and swaying during operation, thereby improving the operational stability of the air conditioning system. During installation, the uniform weight distribution helps reduce the center of gravity shift of the air guide assembly 1, making it more stable during installation and operation. Simultaneously, the elliptical structure of the longitudinal ribs 20 and transverse ribs 21 effectively disperses stress, reducing stress concentration in the air guide assembly 1 caused by airflow impact or mechanical vibration. This design not only enhances the structural stability of the air guide assembly 1 and extends its service life, but also better maintains its shape when subjected to airflow impact from the air outlet of the air conditioner, reducing deformation and improving the airflow experience.
[0046] Specifically, see Figures 1-4 The reinforcing bar group 3 and the mounting groove 2 are integrally formed.
[0047] The rib assembly 3 and the mounting groove 2 are integrally formed, eliminating any gaps or weak connections between them. Compared to structures formed by splicing or assembly, the integrated structure can better withstand external forces. Whether it's the continuous impact of airflow during air conditioner operation or the force transmitted by the movement of the air guide plate 5, it is less prone to structural deformation or damage due to loose connections or separation. This ensures the stability of the airflow from the air conditioner and reduces noise generation.
[0048] Specifically, see Figures 1-4 The present invention also provides an indoor air conditioner, which includes: an indoor air conditioner housing 100 and an air guide assembly 1 as described above, the air guide assembly 1 being rotatably connected to the indoor air conditioner housing 100.
[0049] This indoor air conditioner includes the technical effects of any of the aforementioned air guide components 1, which will not be elaborated further here.
[0050] Specifically, see Figure 4 The indoor air conditioner also includes: an air guide plate 5, and a connector 4 including a first connector 41 and a second connector 42. The first connector 41 is connected to the indoor air conditioner housing 100, and the second connector 42 is connected to the air guide plate 5.
[0051] Connector 4 works in conjunction with air guide assembly 1 and air guide plate 5 to guide airflow evenly to the room when the air conditioner is running.
[0052] Specifically, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the indoor air conditioner also includes a drive unit 6, which is located at the end of the air guide assembly 1 and drives the air guide plate 5.
[0053] As shown in the figure, the driving component 6 is a driving component mounting slot, which is located at the end of the air guide assembly 1. For example, the driving component 6 can be a motor, which is not shown in the figure. The motor is mounted in the driving component mounting slot.
[0054] The drive component 6 is positioned close to the air guide assembly 1, which shortens the power transmission path and reduces energy loss and delay.
[0055] 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.
