[0002] Car air conditioning vents are an important component of a vehicle's air conditioning system, primarily responsible for effectively delivering cooled or heated air into the vehicle's interior. Through these vents, passengers can adjust the interior temperature and airflow, thereby enhancing passenger comfort. The design of the vents typically takes into account the direction and intensity of airflow to ensure that every passenger enjoys a comfortable temperature and airflow.

[0003] Traditional toggle switches typically consist of a rotary knob, a fixed base, and a connecting mechanism. The rotary knob design allows users to easily adjust the air conditioner's fan speed, temperature, or airflow direction; the fixed base provides stable support and connects to the air conditioning system; and the connecting mechanism allows the knob's movement to directly affect the air conditioning system settings, enabling more convenient operation and adjustment.

[0004] The current side-mounted blade toggle structure has a groove on one side of the blade to allow the toggle to adjust the airflow direction laterally. When the blade is tilted, the user will see a noticeable groove on the blade, which affects visual consistency and reduces the aesthetics of the air conditioning vent. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a semi-enclosed toggle structure for automotive air conditioning vents, aiming to improve the current side-blade toggle structure which affects visual consistency and reduces the aesthetic effect of air conditioning vents.

[0033] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 5 This application will be described in further detail below.

[0034] Reference Figures 1-5This utility model provides an embodiment of a semi-enclosed toggle structure for an automotive air conditioning vent, comprising a blade 1 made of ABS engineering plastic. The blade 1 is a core component for adjusting the direction of the air conditioning vent and also supports components such as a shoulder plate 2 and a slider 7. It possesses sufficient strength and toughness to withstand prolonged toggle operation, which is common knowledge and will not be elaborated further here. A shoulder plate 2 is provided at the top of the blade 1, and the shoulder plate 2 adopts a semi-enclosed structure to cover the top of the blade 1, thereby concealing the internal groove 8 of the blade 1. This avoids the groove 8 being exposed and forming a noticeable groove, as is common in traditional side-mounted toggle structures, solving the problems of poor visual consistency and low aesthetics, and improving the overall interior texture of the automotive air conditioning vent. A button 4 is provided on the side wall of the shoulder plate 2, which is operated by the user. The user applies external force to drive subsequent components, thereby adjusting the angle of the blade 1, allowing the user to conveniently control the direction of the air conditioning vent and improving operational convenience. Rotating shafts 5 are fixedly connected to both sides of the blade 1, and the rotating shafts 5 cooperate with the blade 1 to rotate. The rotating shaft 5 is rotatably connected to the frame of the car air conditioning vent, providing a stable rotation support point for the blade 1. When the blade 1 rotates around the rotating shaft 5, it can change the air outlet angle to adjust the air conditioning air outlet direction. Limiting shafts 6 are fixedly connected to both sides of the blade 1. A slider 7 is set inside the blade 1. A connecting component is set inside the blade 1. The connecting component includes multiple connecting blocks 9. The connecting blocks 9 engage with the connecting groove 13 inside the shoulder plate 2. The connecting blocks 9 are embedded in the connecting groove 13 to form a mechanical limit, which prevents the shoulder plate 2 from shifting in the horizontal direction of the blade 1 and ensures the assembly stability of the shoulder plate 2 and the blade 1. The bottom of the multiple connecting blocks 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the blade 1. Multiple elastic blocks 11 are fixedly connected to the top of the blade 1. The elastic blocks 11 are made of elastic plastic and their function is to resist the inclined block 15 inside the shoulder plate 2 through their own elasticity to generate a continuous pressing force, thereby enhancing the tightness of the connection between the shoulder plate 2 and the blade 1 and avoiding gaps between them. This is common knowledge and will not be elaborated further here.

[0035] Reference Figures 1-5The blade 1 has a sliding groove 8 inside, and a guide groove 10 at the top of the blade 1. A limiting block 12 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the shoulder plate 2. Multiple connecting grooves 13 are opened inside the shoulder plate 2, and connecting blocks 9 engage with connecting grooves 13. A guide block 14 is fixedly connected inside the shoulder plate 2, and guide blocks 14 engage with guide grooves 10. An inclined block 15 is opened inside the shoulder plate 2, and elastic blocks 11 abut against inclined blocks 15. A limiting cavity 16 is opened inside the button 4, and limiting blocks 12 engage with limiting cavity 16. Multiple locking blocks 17 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the button 4. Multiple connecting parts 3 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider 7. Multiple locking slots 18 are opened inside the slider 7, and locking slots 18 cooperate with locking blocks 17 on the side wall of the button 4. 7 performs a locking motion, working together with locking block 17 to achieve linkage between button 4 and slider 7, preventing button 4 from spinning freely or slipping, and ensuring effective transmission of operating force. Locking block 17 engages with locking slot 18. Multiple locking slots 20 are provided inside button 4. Multiple locking blocks 19 are fixedly connected to the side wall of slider 7, and locking blocks 19 engage with locking slots 20. A pad 21 is fixedly connected inside slider 7. The pad 21 is made of rubber and its function is to buffer the contact pressure between button 4 and slider 7 when they are linked, avoiding wear caused by direct collision of metal or hard plastic materials, and extending the service life of the parts. This is common knowledge and will not be elaborated on here. Connecting grooves 22 are provided between multiple connecting parts 3.

[0036] Working principle: The rotating shafts 5 on both sides of the blade 1 provide support for the rotation of the blade 1. The limiting shaft 6 is used to limit the rotation angle of the blade 1 to avoid excessive rotation and structural damage. The top of the blade 1 is stably assembled with the shoulder plate 2 through the connecting assembly. The connecting block 9 engages with the connecting groove 13 inside the shoulder plate 2, and the guide block 14 engages with the guide groove 10 on the top of the blade 1, ensuring that the shoulder plate 2 is accurately and stably installed on the blade 1. The elastic block 11 abuts against the inclined block 15 inside the shoulder plate 2, further enhancing the tightness of the connection between the shoulder plate 2 and the blade 1. At the same time, the shoulder plate 2 adopts a semi-enclosed design to cover the top of the blade 1, avoiding the exposed groove 8 in the traditional structure and forming an obvious groove, ensuring visual consistency and aesthetics. The limiting block 12 on the side wall of the shoulder plate 2 engages with the limiting cavity 16 inside the button 4, and cooperates with the locking block 1 on the side wall of the button 4. The engagement structure between the slot 18 inside the slider 7 and the slot 20 inside the button 4 and the block 2 19 on the side wall of the slider 7 enables synchronous linkage between the button 4, the shoulder plate 2 and the slider 7. The slider 7 can slide in the groove 8 inside the blade 1. When the user moves the button 4, the button 4 drives the slider 7 to move along the groove 8 through the above engagement structure. The connector 3 at the bottom of the slider 7 and the connecting groove 22 connect to the linkage component of the air conditioner outlet, thereby driving the blade 1 to rotate around the rotating shaft 5 to adjust the air outlet direction. The pad 21 inside the slider 7 can buffer the contact pressure between the button 4 and the slider 7 to reduce component wear. The limiting shaft 6 simultaneously limits the rotation range of the blade 1 during this process to ensure that the adjustment action is stable and controllable, realizing the air direction adjustment function. At the same time, the semi-enclosed design solves the problem of the traditional toggle structure affecting aesthetics.
