Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ventilation fan manufacturing technology, and in particular to an airtight ventilation fan structure. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, there are many types of exhaust fans on the market; however, most have structural design flaws that fail to meet users' high requirements for airtightness and ventilation efficiency. Traditional exhaust fans have poor sealing performance, with inadequate sealing between the slats and the window frame. When closed, noticeable gaps often remain, allowing outside dust and odors to easily enter the room, affecting indoor air quality. This can also lead to heat or cold air loss, increasing energy consumption. Furthermore, some exhaust fans have simple slat structures, lacking effective sealing measures at the joints when closed, further reducing the sealing effect. In addition, the choice of materials and overall structural design of exhaust fans are also inadequate. Some exhaust fans are made of materials that are not sturdy and durable enough, easily leading to damage and deformation after prolonged use, thus affecting the performance and lifespan of the exhaust fan. Moreover, during ventilation, the airflow guidance and exhaust are not smooth enough, resulting in low ventilation efficiency and an inability to effectively refresh indoor air in a timely manner. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies that cannot simultaneously achieve airtightness and ventilation by providing a new airtight ventilation fan structure.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] An airtight ventilation fan structure includes a rear cover, a bulkhead, a window frame, a fan assembly, a linkage assembly, and a window blade assembly. The window frame, window blade assembly, and linkage assembly cooperate to form an open state and a closed state. It also includes a flexible sealing frame. The bulkhead is provided with a first ventilation opening. The rear cover and the window frame are respectively fixed to both sides of the first ventilation opening. The window blade assembly includes at least two window blades and a blade sealing strip provided on the window blades. The window blades are rotatably connected to the window frame. The blade sealing strip is provided at the tail end of the window blade away from the rotatable connection. The flexible sealing frame is fixed to the window frame. In the closed state, the tail end of the window blade abuts against the flexible sealing frame. The window frame, window blade assembly, rear cover, and bulkhead together form an accommodating space. The fan assembly is placed in the accommodating space. The linkage assembly is fixed to the window frame. The linkage assembly is provided with a control lever and is connected to the window blade assembly.

[0006] It also includes a steel plate and a honeycomb panel. The steel plate is fixed to the surface of the first ventilation opening on one side of the rear cover. The steel plate is provided with a second ventilation opening. The honeycomb panel is fixed to the steel plate and covers the second ventilation opening.

[0007] It also includes a grid plate, which is fixed to the window frame. The steel plate, honeycomb plate, grid plate, and window frame bulkhead together form a ventilation space, and the fan assembly is placed in the ventilation space.

[0008] This structural design, through the cooperation of the window frame, window slat assembly, and linkage components, enables the ventilation fan to open and close. The flexible sealing frame ensures a tight seal when the window slats are closed, effectively preventing outside air, dust, and odors from entering the room through gaps. This improves the airtightness of the ventilation fan, provides a better indoor air environment, and reduces energy loss, thus contributing to energy conservation and emission reduction.

[0009] The opening and closing of the window shutters can be controlled by using the joystick.

[0010] The combination of steel plate, honeycomb panel, and mesh panel, with the steel plate fixed to the surface of the first vent on one side of the rear cover and a second vent provided, and the honeycomb panel fixed to the steel plate and covering the second vent, enhances the overall structural strength of the ventilation fan, improves its durability and impact resistance, and better adapts to the needs of use in different environments. Furthermore, the honeycomb panel has excellent ventilation and filtration functions, ensuring normal air circulation while initially filtering incoming air, blocking some large dust particles and impurities, further improving indoor air quality, enhancing the practicality and functionality of the ventilation fan, and enabling it to perform better during ventilation.

[0011] Bulletproof plates can be added to the outside of the window leaf assembly and window frame to increase strength.

[0012] The honeycomb panel is a shielded honeycomb panel that can shield electromagnetic signals.

[0013] The opening and closing of the window leaf can be controlled by an unlimited switch, which will automatically stop when the limit is reached, or it can be controlled by a limit switch, which will stop when the leaf touches the limit switch.

[0014] Preferably, in the airtight ventilation fan structure described above, the window blade includes a rotating connecting part, a blade, and a baffle. The upper edge of the blade is connected to the rotating connecting part, and the lower edge of the blade is connected to the baffle. In the closed state, the baffle covers the rotating connecting part of the adjacent blade.

[0015] This window slat assembly design, when closed, allows the baffle to cover the rotating connection of adjacent slats, thereby reducing leakage of rainwater and other substances from the gaps in the rotating connection, enhancing the overall sealing of the window slat, further improving the sealing effect when the ventilation fan is closed, and improving the overall performance and user experience of the product.

[0016] Preferably, in the airtight ventilation fan structure described above, a blade sealing strip is fixed to the lower edge of the blade and the inner side of the baffle. When the blade is closed, the blade sealing strip abuts against the rotating connection of the adjacent window blade.

[0017] The blade sealing strip ensures that, when closed, it tightly abuts against the rotating connection of adjacent window blades, further enhancing the sealing performance between window blades and between window blades and the window frame. This multi-layer sealing structure effectively solves the problem of poor sealing caused by the simple structure of traditional ventilation fans, improving the airtightness of the ventilation fan and providing users with a better experience.

[0018] Preferably, in the airtight ventilation fan structure described above, the flexible sealing frame is provided with blade slot protrusions, which are disposed between two adjacent window blades. In the closed state, the blade slot protrusions abut against the space between the blade sealing strips and the rotating connection parts of the two adjacent window blades.

[0019] The flexible sealing frame's blade seam protrusion design effectively fills the tiny gaps between the slats when closed, further enhancing the stability of the seal. Even if the slats undergo minor deformation due to long-term use, impact, or wear, the blade seam protrusions still provide excellent sealing compensation, extending the lifespan of the ventilation fan and the duration of its sealing performance, thus reducing maintenance costs and replacement frequency.

[0020] As a preferred embodiment, in the airtight ventilation fan structure described above, the window blade is provided with a blade groove, and the end of the baffle is provided with a baffle bend, the baffle bend extending into the blade groove in the closed state.

[0021] The combination of the baffle bending and the blade groove further enhances the shielding of the gaps between adjacent blades, which helps to reduce the infiltration of rainwater.

[0022] As a preferred embodiment, in the airtight ventilation fan structure described above, the window frame includes an outer frame and an inner frame. The outer frame is connected to the bulkhead, and the inner frame connects the outer frame to the rotating connection part. The inner frame is provided with a shaft hole, and the rotating connection part is rotatably connected to the shaft hole by means of a pin. The inner frame is provided with an anti-protrusion groove, and the shaft hole is located in the anti-protrusion groove.

[0023] The anti-protrusion groove is used to accommodate the pin inserted into the shaft hole, preventing the pin from colliding with the outer frame and ensuring smooth opening of the window leaf.

[0024] Preferably, in the airtight ventilation fan structure described above, the blade thickness W1 is 10mm and the outer frame thickness W2 is 17mm.

[0025] Specifying the exact thickness of the blades and outer frame allows for optimization of the overall size and weight of the ventilation fan while ensuring the structural strength of the window blades. This ensures that the fan meets the requirements for airtightness and structural stability without compromising ventilation efficiency and ease of installation due to excessive thickness, thus helping to achieve a balance between performance and cost. The profile wall thickness used for the blades is 1.2mm, and the profile wall thickness used for the outer frame is 2mm.

[0026] As a preferred embodiment, in the airtight ventilation fan structure described above, the fan assembly includes a fixing plate, a fan, and a power component. The power component is fixed to the steel plate, and the fan is fixed to the window frame by means of the fixing plate.

[0027] This structural design of the fan assembly fixes the power unit to the steel plate, and the fan is fixed to the window frame with the help of the fixing plate. This makes the installation of the fan assembly more stable, the operation more stable, reduces vibration and noise, improves the ventilation efficiency and service life of the ventilation fan, and also facilitates the installation, disassembly and maintenance of the fan assembly.

[0028] Preferably, in the airtight ventilation fan structure described above, the flexible sealing frame is provided with a surrounding protrusion, the window frame is provided with a T-shaped snap-fit ​​part, the flexible sealing frame is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove, and the snap-fit ​​part cooperates with the snap-fit ​​groove.

[0029] The design of the protrusions on the flexible sealing frame and the T-shaped snap-fit ​​part and snap-fit ​​groove on the window frame makes the connection between the flexible sealing frame and the window frame tighter and more secure, facilitating installation and disassembly. At the same time, the protrusions can further enhance the sealing performance of the flexible sealing frame, improve the overall airtightness of the ventilation fan, and effectively prevent air from leaking from the gap between the sealing frame and the window frame.

[0030] Preferably, the airtight ventilation fan structure described above includes a linkage assembly comprising a drive assembly, two vertical linkage rods, a rack, a primary linkage, two secondary linkages, a blade linkage corresponding to the number of window slats, a horizontal linkage, two linkage fixing components, and two tertiary linkages. The drive assembly is fixed to the inner side of the window frame. The rack is rotatably connected to one end of the primary linkage, and the other end of the primary linkage is fixedly connected to the horizontal linkage. The drive assembly drives the primary linkage to rotate by controlling the rack to move up and down, which in turn drives the horizontal linkage to rotate. One end of each secondary linkage is fixedly connected to the horizontal linkage, and the other end is rotatably connected to the two tertiary linkages. The other ends of the two tertiary linkages are rotatably connected to the two vertical linkage rods. One end of the blade linkage is connected to the vertical linkage rod, and the other end abuts against the inner side of the window slats.

[0031] The complex structural design of this linkage component, through the coordinated action of components such as the drive component, rack and pinion, various linkages, and vertical linkage rods, achieves synchronous control of the window slat assembly, enabling it to reliably and stably perform opening and closing operations. This ensures the ease of operation and stability of the ventilation fan during use. At the same time, this linkage method helps to improve the synchronicity of the opening and closing of the window slats, further optimizing the sealing performance and ventilation effect of the ventilation fan.

[0032] Meanwhile, the setup of primary, secondary, and tertiary linkages increases the foldability of the linkage components, compresses space, and allows for a thinner ventilation fan. Attached Figure Description
