Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning air guiding technology, specifically to an auxiliary device with an indoor air conditioning air guiding structure. Background Technology

[0002] Due to technical limitations, the air outlets of existing wall-mounted air conditioners are usually located at the bottom. This design can easily cause cold or warm air to blow directly onto users located below or near the air conditioner. At the same time, due to the size of the air outlet, the air deflector of the air conditioner is too close to the air duct, resulting in a very limited range of airflow adjustment. Especially in summer, the direct blowing of cold air is not only uncomfortable, but can also easily cause colds, seriously affecting the user experience.

[0003] To address the issue of direct airflow, current technologies generally employ the solution of installing an additional shield at the air conditioner's vent. These shields are typically fixed to the air conditioner using hooks or clips. When direct airflow protection is not needed, users need to remove the shield. However, storing the shield after removal becomes a problem: placing it randomly easily leads to dust accumulation, increasing the cleaning burden. If users need to frequently remove and install the shield based on environmental changes (such as temperature differences between day and night, or movement of people), the process becomes extremely cumbersome. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an auxiliary device with an indoor air conditioning air guiding structure to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] Disassembled panels are prone to accumulating dust when left lying around, increasing the cleaning burden. If users need to frequently disassemble and reassemble the panels according to environmental changes (such as temperature differences between day and night or movement of people), the operation becomes extremely cumbersome.

[0006] To address the above problems, this utility model aims to provide an auxiliary device with an indoor air conditioning air guiding structure, including a baffle plate. A positioning plate is hinged to one edge of the baffle plate via a hinge shaft. Hooks are fixedly connected to both ends of the upper side wall of the positioning plate. A slot is provided on one side of the positioning plate above the hinge shaft. The baffle plate is provided with a locking mechanism for locking its own position. The locking mechanism includes a connecting plate that is horizontally slidably mounted on the positioning plate. A first pin and a second pin are horizontally fixedly connected to the side of the connecting plate near the positioning plate. When the baffle plate is in the working state of guiding the airflow direction of the indoor air conditioning unit, the end of the first pin is inserted into the slot. When the side of the baffle plate away from the positioning plate rotates around the hinge shaft axis to above the positioning plate, the end of the second pin is inserted into the slot. At this time, the position of the baffle plate is fixed by the cooperation of the second pin and the slot, so that the baffle plate is in an idle state.

[0007] As a further improvement to this technical solution, an assembly block is fixedly installed on the shielding plate on the side of the connecting plate away from the positioning plate, and movable grooves are opened at both ends of the assembly block on the side near the connecting plate.

[0008] As a further improvement to this technical solution, a sliding rod is fixedly connected to each of the two movable slots on the connecting plate, and the other end of the sliding rod is slidably disposed inside the corresponding movable slot.

[0009] As a further improvement to this technical solution, a return spring is provided inside the movable groove, and the two ends of the return spring are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the movable groove and the end of the slide rod, respectively.

[0010] As a further improvement to this technical solution, the first pin and the second pin are arranged symmetrically with the hinge axis as the center, and the connecting plate, the first pin and the second pin together form a horizontal U-shaped structure.

[0011] As a further improvement to this technical solution, the assembly block is located on the adjacent side edge at the connection between the baffle plate and the positioning plate.

[0012] As a further improvement to this technical solution, the baffle plate is provided with a number of drainage holes. When the baffle plate is in working condition, the drainage holes are all located on the airflow path blown out by the indoor unit of the air conditioner.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. This auxiliary device with an indoor air conditioning air guide structure, after pushing the connecting plate towards the assembly block to completely remove the end of the first pin from the slot and release the restriction on the rotation of the baffle, flips the side of the baffle away from the positioning plate upward around the hinge axis to above the positioning plate. After releasing the connecting plate, the return spring rebounds, pushing the connecting plate back to its original position, so that the end of the second pin is inserted into the slot. Through the cooperation of the second pin and the slot, the baffle is reliably fixed in the storage position, completely detaching it from the airflow path. Without disassembling the baffle, the air conditioning indoor unit can be ensured to restore a smooth direct blowing effect, eliminating the risk of random placement and dust accumulation caused by disassembling the baffle, and reducing the burden of cleaning and maintaining the baffle.

[0025] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example 1

[0026] Please see Figure 1 As shown, the purpose of this embodiment is to provide an auxiliary device with an indoor air conditioning air guiding structure, including a baffle plate 1. A positioning plate 2 is hinged to one edge of the baffle plate 1 via a hinge shaft 22. Hooks 21 are fixedly connected to the upper side wall of the positioning plate 2 near both ends. During installation, simply hook the two hooks 21 to the top of the indoor air conditioning unit to stably suspend the positioning plate 2 and the connected baffle plate 1 in front of the air outlet of the indoor air conditioning unit. Several vent holes 11 are provided on the baffle plate 1. When the baffle plate 1 is in working condition, the several vent holes 11 are all located on the airflow path blown out by the indoor air conditioning unit. When the indoor air conditioning unit blows out airflow, the baffle plate 1 effectively blocks the airflow from blowing directly, while part of the airflow is discharged through the vent holes 11. This vent design effectively reduces the overall impact force of the airflow on the baffle plate 1, thereby improving the stability of the baffle plate 1 in use and preventing it from shaking.

[0027] To further enhance the stability of the shield 1, refer to Figures 2-4A slot 23 is provided on one side of the positioning plate 2 above the hinge shaft 22. The blocking plate 1 is provided with a locking mechanism 3 for locking its own position. The locking mechanism 3 includes a connecting plate 33 that is horizontally slidably disposed on the positioning plate 2. A first pin 31 and a second pin 32 are horizontally fixedly connected to the side of the connecting plate 33 near the positioning plate 2. The first pin 31 and the second pin 32 are symmetrically arranged with the axis of the hinge shaft 22 as the center. The connecting plate 33, the first pin 31 and the second pin 32 together form a horizontal U-shaped structure.

[0028] An assembly block 34 is fixedly installed on the baffle plate 1 on the side of the connecting plate 33 away from the positioning plate 2. Both ends of the assembly block 34 near the connecting plate 33 are provided with movable grooves 36. A slide rod 35 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 33 at the position corresponding to the two movable grooves 36. The other end of the slide rod 35 is slidably disposed inside the corresponding movable groove 36. The slide rod 35 and the movable groove 36 cooperate to constrain the connecting plate 33 to move only horizontally. A return spring 37 is provided inside the movable groove 36. The two ends of the return spring 37 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 36 and the end of the slide rod 35, respectively. The assembly block 34 is located on the adjacent side edge at the connection between the baffle plate 1 and the positioning plate 2, so that the user can easily push the connecting plate 33 towards the assembly block 34.

[0029] When the baffle 1 is in the working state of guiding the airflow direction of the indoor unit of the air conditioner (preventing direct blowing), the end of the first pin 31 is inserted into the inside of the slot 23. At this time, the first pin 31 and the slot 23 cooperate to restrict the baffle 1 from rotating around the axis of the hinge shaft 22, thereby improving the relative stability between the baffle 1 and the positioning plate 2.

[0030] When the anti-direct-blow function is not required, the user can push the connecting plate 33 towards the assembly block 34. This action causes the slide rod 35 to slide within the movable groove 36 and compresses the return spring 37 until the end of the first pin 31 is completely removed from the slot 23, releasing the restriction on the rotation of the baffle plate 1. The user can then flip the baffle plate 1 (the side away from the positioning plate 2) upwards around the hinge axis 22 until the baffle plate 1 contacts the side of the positioning plate 2 away from the indoor unit of the air conditioner. (Refer to...) Figure 5 and Figure 6 At this time, the second pin 32 rotates to the position corresponding to the slot 23. After the user releases the connecting plate 33, the return spring 37 rebounds and pushes the connecting plate 33 to reset, so that the end of the second pin 32 is inserted into the slot 23. Through the cooperation of the second pin 32 and the slot 23, the baffle 1 is reliably fixed in the storage position, so that it is completely separated from the airflow path, thereby ensuring the normal direct blowing effect of the air conditioner indoor unit.

[0031] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model.
