Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of air outlet installation technology, specifically relating to a device that facilitates the installation of air outlets. Background Technology
[0002] With the improvement of modern people's living standards and the rapid development of science and technology, the design of ventilation for buildings has become more and more mature. Most buildings are equipped with air conditioning, and air vents are installed in the air inlet and outlet channels for the air conditioning to work.
[0003] When installing air vents, workers hold the vent in one hand to align it and use the other hand to hold the mounting bolts and screwdriver to fix it in place. This is inconvenient and lacks effective installation assistance mechanisms, which reduces installation efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a device that facilitates the installation of air vents, thereby solving the problem mentioned in the background art that when installing air vents, workers need to hold the air vent in one hand to align it and hold the mounting bolts with a screwdriver in the other hand to fix it. This is inconvenient, lacks effective installation auxiliary mechanisms, and reduces installation efficiency.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a device for facilitating the installation of air vents, comprising a base with movable wheels mounted on its lower surface, a plurality of sliding rods slidably mounted on the upper surface of the base, the top ends of the plurality of sliding rods being fixed to the same mounting plate, an adjustment mechanism 1 for driving the sliding rods 1 to move the mounting plate up and down on the base, an installation frame mounted on the side of the mounting plate, a plurality of sliding rods 2 slidably mounted on the upper and lower sides of the installation frame, a movable plate 2 fixed to the end of the sliding rod 2 located inside the installation frame, a support plate fixed to the end of the sliding rod 2 located outside the installation frame, two air vent suction cups slidably mounted on the side of the support plate, and an adjustment mechanism 2 for driving the two movable plates 2 to move relative to each other on the installation frame.
[0006] The above solution utilizes an adjustment mechanism (Mechanism 1) in conjunction with the mounting plate and frame. A motor drives a lead screw via a rotating shaft, causing the moving plate (Mechanism 1) to move up and down along the sliding rod and mounting plate, thus adjusting the height of the suction cup. This allows for installation at different heights by the suction cup adsorbing air vents. The structure is simple and easy to use. A second adjustment mechanism (Mechanism 2) works in conjunction with a locking mechanism. Gears and toothed plates enable relative movement of the two moving plates (Mechanism 2), which in turn enables relative movement of the two support plates via the sliding rod (Mechanism 2). A spring and pin lock the position, and a positioning pin and sliding block adjust the position of the suction cup. This design is suitable for the fixed installation of air vents of different sizes, offering a wide range of applications.
[0007] In the above scheme, it should be noted that the motor is electrically connected to an external power supply.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the adjustment mechanism includes a lead screw that is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the machine base with a rotating shaft fixed at both ends, a motor mounted on the upper surface of the machine base with its output shaft connected to the upper rotating shaft, and a movable plate threaded onto the outer surface of the lead screw. The bottom end of the sliding rod is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the movable plate.
[0009] Using the above scheme, the motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the lead screw to rotate, causing the moving plate to move up and down. This, in turn, drives the sliding rod to move up and down, which in turn drives the mounting frame to move up and down through the mounting plate, thus achieving the overall installation height adjustment for adaptive use.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the second adjustment mechanism includes a second rotating shaft rotatably mounted on the mounting frame, a gear mounted at the end of the second rotating shaft, and two toothed plates mounted on opposite sides of two second movable plates. The two toothed plates are staggered and mesh with the gear. The mounting frame and the second movable plates are provided with through holes for the toothed plates to pass through. One end of the second rotating shaft rotatably passes through the mounting plate and is fixed with a turntable. The mounting plate is provided with a locking mechanism for locking the turntable.
[0011] Using the above scheme, the rotating shaft 2 drives the gear to rotate, and the gear and toothed plate work together to realize the relative movement of the two moving plates 2. Then, the sliding rod 2 realizes the relative movement of the two support plates, which can meet the needs of installing and fixing air outlets of different height specifications.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the locking mechanism includes a second guide rod fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the mounting plate, a limiting plate mounted on the top of the second guide rod, a sliding plate slidably mounted on the outer surface of the second guide rod, a pin mounted on the lower surface of the sliding plate, and a spring sleeved on the outer surface of the second guide rod and connected at both ends to the mounting plate and the sliding plate respectively. The turntable has a plurality of slots for the pin to be inserted.
[0013] By adopting the above solution, the reverse force generated by the deformation of the spring when it is stressed drives the sliding plate to move the pin and insert it into the slot at the appropriate position. This can lock the position of the rotating turntable, thereby adjusting and locking the position of the support plate to prevent loosening and improve the stability of the use.
[0014] In one preferred embodiment, a plurality of guide rods are fixedly installed inside the mounting frame, and the movable plate is slidably installed on the outer surface of the guide rods.
[0015] By adopting the above scheme, the guide rod can be used to support the moving plate 2, making the moving plate 2 more stable during up and down movement and less prone to tilting and swaying.
[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the support plate has a sliding groove on its side and a sliding block is slidably installed in the sliding groove. The sliding block is installed on the side of the air vent suction cup. Several positioning holes are opened on both sides of the support plate. Positioning pins are inserted into two of the positioning holes on the support plate. The positioning pins pass through the positioning holes and are connected to the sliding block on the same side. A fixing rod for the sliding block to slide is installed in the sliding groove.
[0017] Using the above solution, the position of the air vent suction cup can be adjusted by sliding the sliding block in the sliding groove, and it can be fixed in place with the positioning pin. The fixing rod can limit and guide the sliding block, thereby improving the stability of the sliding adjustment.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0019] This device, which facilitates the installation of air vents, uses an adjustment mechanism in conjunction with a mounting plate and a mounting frame. A motor drives a lead screw to rotate via a rotating shaft, causing a moving plate to move up and down through a sliding rod and the mounting plate, thereby adjusting the height of the air vent suction cup. By using the air vent suction cup to adhere to the air vent, it can be installed at different heights. The device has a simple structure, is easy to use, requires no manual operation by workers, and improves installation efficiency.
[0020] This device, which facilitates the installation of air vents, uses an adjustment mechanism and a locking mechanism.

The bottom end of the sliding rod 3 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the movable plate 11. The motor 10 drives the rotating shaft 8 to rotate, which in turn drives the lead screw 9 to rotate, causing the movable plate 11 to move up and down, thereby driving the sliding rod 3 to move up and down, which in turn drives the mounting frame 5 to move up and down via the mounting plate 4, thus achieving the overall installation height adjustment.
[0029] The second adjustment mechanism includes a rotating shaft 15 rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 5, a gear 16 mounted on the end of the rotating shaft 15, and two toothed plates 17 mounted on the opposite sides of the two movable plates 12. The two toothed plates 17 are staggered and mesh with the gear 16. The mounting frame 5 and the movable plates 12 are provided with through holes for the toothed plates 17 to pass through. One end of the rotating shaft 15 rotatably passes through the mounting plate 4 and is fixed with a turntable 18. The mounting plate 4 is provided with a locking mechanism for locking the turntable 18. The rotating shaft 15 drives the gear 16 to rotate.
