Technical Field

[0002] Currently, recessed air conditioner indoor units have air guide vanes at the air outlet, which are typically driven to rotate by a motor and a shaft.

[0058] Figure 1 This is a schematic structural diagram of an embedded air conditioner indoor unit according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, and with reference Figures 2 to 10 This utility model provides an embedded air conditioner indoor unit 10, which includes a housing 100, an air guide plate 400, and a first driving device 500. An air outlet 120 is provided on the lower front side of the housing 100. The air guide plate 400 is rotatably disposed at the air outlet 120; a rotating hole 420 is provided on the air guide plate 400. The first driving device 500 is disposed inside the housing 100 and has a rotating shaft assembly 510. The rotating shaft assembly 510 includes a rotating part 511, an elastic element 512, and a telescopic shaft 513 that is telescopically connected to the rotating part 511 and rotates synchronously with the rotating part 511. The telescopic shaft 513 is inserted into the rotating hole 420 and drives the air guide plate 400 to rotate. The elastic element 512 is disposed between the rotating part 511 and the telescopic shaft 513, configured to provide a force that causes the telescopic shaft 513 to insert into the rotating hole 420.
[0059] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the assembly process in this embodiment is as follows: The first drive device 500 is fixed inside the housing 100, and its telescopic shaft 513 is in a naturally extended state under the preload of the elastic element 512. When installing the air guide plate 400, the air guide plate 400 is brought close to the air outlet 120, so that the rotating hole 420 of the air guide plate 400 is roughly aligned with the position of the telescopic shaft 513. Since the telescopic shaft 513 has axial telescopic capability, the telescopic shaft 513 can also be slightly pressed into the rotating part 511 when the air guide plate 400 contacts it. At the same time, the elastic element 512 provides a reverse thrust, causing the telescopic shaft 513 to automatically insert into the rotating hole 420. After the alignment is completed, the telescopic shaft 513 always maintains close contact with the rotating hole 420 under the action of the elastic element 512, without the need for manual fine adjustment.
[0060] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, the working process of this embodiment is as follows: When the embedded air conditioner indoor unit 10 needs to adjust the airflow direction, the first drive device 500 is activated, and the rotating part 511 drives the telescopic shaft 513 to rotate synchronously. The telescopic shaft 513 drives the air guide plate 400 to rotate around its axis through the rotating hole 420, thereby adjusting the angle of the air outlet 120. During operation, if a slight displacement occurs between the air guide plate 400 and the telescopic shaft 513 due to vibration or component deformation, the elastic element 512 can adaptively adjust the axial position of the telescopic shaft 513 to ensure that the two are always in reliable contact, preventing the air guide plate 400 from shaking or slipping.
[0061] In this embodiment, the cooperation between the elastic element 512 and the telescopic shaft 513 in the rotating shaft assembly 510 improves the ease of assembly. Specifically, the preload of the elastic element 512 enables the telescopic shaft 513 to have axial self-adaptive capability, realizing adaptive alignment during the installation of the air guide plate 400, significantly reducing assembly difficulty and the risk of component damage.
[0062] Furthermore, this embodiment can increase the operational stability of the air guide plate 400. Specifically, the continuous thrust of the elastic element 512 eliminates the assembly gap between the rotating shaft and the air guide plate 400, ensuring that the air guide plate 400 rotates smoothly without abnormal noise. During operation, the elastic element 512 can dynamically compensate for the relative positional changes between the air guide plate 400 and the telescopic shaft 513 caused by thermal expansion and contraction, avoiding jamming or detachment caused by deformation of the air guide plate 400. The buffering effect of the elastic element 512 can effectively absorb the axial movement energy of the output shaft of the motor 520, preventing the movement from being transmitted to the air guide plate 400 and improving the vibration resistance of the system.
[0063] Furthermore, this embodiment also avoids the problem of gradually increasing gaps caused by material creep or wear in traditional rigid connections, ensuring the reliability and consistency of the air guide plate 400 drive system in long-term use.
[0064] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, in some optional embodiments of this utility model, the air guide plate 400 is provided with a mounting base 410, and a rotating hole 420 is disposed on the mounting base 410. The axial direction of the rotating hole 420 is parallel to the extension direction of the air guide plate 400. Specifically, the axial direction of the rotating hole 420 extends in the left-right direction.
[0065] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, in some optional embodiments of this utility model, the rotating part 511 includes a transmission shaft 5111 and a drive shaft 5112. The transmission shaft 5111 has a first mounting hole 5113 and a second mounting hole coaxially arranged with the transmission shaft 5111; the openings of the first mounting hole 5113 and the second mounting hole are opposite. An elastic member 512 is disposed in the first mounting hole 5113, and the telescopic shaft 513 is inserted into the first mounting hole 5113. The drive shaft 5112 is inserted into the second mounting hole, and the drive shaft 5112 drives the telescopic shaft 513 to rotate through the transmission shaft 5111.
[0066] In this embodiment, the drive shaft 5112 is inserted into the second mounting hole of the transmission shaft 5111 and rigidly connected to transmit the torque of the first drive device 500. The first mounting hole 5113 of the transmission shaft 5111 is provided with an elastic element 512 and a telescopic shaft 513. The elastic element 512 is pre-tightened to extend the telescopic shaft 513.
[0067] During installation, the telescopic shaft 513 can retract into the first mounting hole 5113 under external force to adapt to the position of the air guide plate 400 rotating hole 420, and the elastic element 512 compresses and stores energy; after the telescopic shaft 513 and the rotating hole 420 are aligned, the elastic element 512 releases energy, pushing the telescopic shaft 513 to reset and extend into the rotating hole 420 and tightly abut against the inner wall of the rotating hole 420, thus achieving self-locking.
[0068] During operation, the drive shaft 5112 drives the transmission shaft 5111 and the telescopic shaft 513 to rotate synchronously. The telescopic shaft 513 continuously presses against the air guide plate 400 to eliminate axial clearance, avoid vibration and noise, and ensure efficient torque transmission.
[0069] This embodiment achieves efficient assembly, stable operation and long-term reliability of the air guide plate 400 and the first drive device 500 in a limited space through the double hole design of the drive shaft 5111, the rigid linkage between the drive shaft 5112 and the drive shaft 5111, and the dynamic compensation of the elastic element 512 and the telescopic shaft 513. This is beneficial to meeting the requirements of embedded air conditioning scenarios with strict requirements for space layout and noise control.
[0070] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, the first mounting hole 5113, the second mounting hole, and the rotating hole 420 can be polygonal holes.
[0071] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, the elastic element 512 is a spring or a rubber elastomer.
[0072] Furthermore, the cross-sections of both the telescopic shaft 513 and the drive shaft 5112 can be polygonal.
[0073] like Figure 7As shown, in some optional embodiments of this utility model, the rotating part 511 includes a sleeve 5114, a retaining ring 5115, and a drive shaft 5112. The sleeve 5114 has a third mounting hole 5117 extending through it axially. The retaining ring 5115 is disposed at one end of the sleeve 5114 facing the air guide plate 400; a baffle 516 is disposed at one end of the telescopic shaft 513 away from the rotating hole 420, and the telescopic shaft 513 is configured to be inserted into the third mounting hole 5117 from the end of the third mounting hole 5117 away from the air guide plate 400, and to extend from the end of the third mounting hole 5117 near the air guide plate 400; the baffle 516 is configured to contact the retaining ring 5115 to prevent the telescopic shaft 513 from disengaging from the third mounting hole 5117. The drive shaft 5112 is inserted into the third mounting hole 5117, and the elastic element 512 is disposed within the third mounting hole 5117, with the elastic element 512 positioned between the drive shaft 5112 and the baffle 516. The drive shaft 5112 drives the telescopic shaft 513 to rotate via the sleeve 5114. In some alternative embodiments, the drive shaft 5112 drives the telescopic shaft 513 to rotate via the sleeve 5114 and the retaining ring 5115.
[0074] In this embodiment, the retaining ring 5115 and the sleeve 5114 are integrally formed or fixedly connected. During assembly, the telescopic shaft 513 is inserted into the third mounting hole 5117 from the end of the sleeve 5114 away from the air guide plate 400; the elastic element 512 is installed in the third mounting hole 5117 and placed between the baffle 516 of the telescopic shaft 513 and the inner wall of the sleeve 5114; the drive shaft 5112 is inserted into the third mounting hole 5117 of the sleeve 5114, compressing the elastic element 512 to form a preload, causing the telescopic shaft 513 to extend outward and insert into the rotating hole 420 of the air guide plate 400, while the baffle 516 contacts the retaining ring 5115 to prevent the telescopic shaft 513 from axially dislodging.
[0075] During operation, the drive shaft 5112 drives the telescopic shaft 513 to rotate synchronously through the sleeve 5114. The elastic element 512 continuously pushes the baffle 516 of the telescopic shaft 513, so that the telescopic shaft 513 is always in close contact with the inner wall of the rotating hole 420 of the air guide plate 400, eliminating axial clearance. The retaining ring 5115 cooperates with the baffle 516 to limit the stroke of the telescopic shaft 513, prevent it from disengaging from the sleeve 5114, and ensure stable transmission.
[0076] Compared with the previous embodiment, this embodiment has the advantages of easy installation and simple structure. In addition, by setting the baffle 516 and the retaining ring 5115, the telescopic shaft 513 can be prevented from coming out of the third mounting hole 5117.
[0077] Furthermore, the cross-section of the third mounting hole can be a polygonal hole, and the cross-sections of the telescopic shaft and the drive shaft can both be polygonal.
[0078] like Figures 3 to 6As shown, in some optional embodiments of this utility model, a positioning plate 514 is provided on the rotating part 511, and a first stop surface and a second stop surface that cooperate with the positioning plate 514 are provided on the housing 100.
[0079] Specifically, the positioning plate 514 can be disposed on the outer peripheral wall of the sleeve 5114 or on the outer peripheral wall of the drive shaft 5111.
[0080] In this embodiment, by setting the positioning plate 514 and the first and second stop surfaces on the housing 100, the maximum forward and reverse rotation angles of the rotating part 511 can be limited, thereby ensuring that the air guide plate 400 rotates only within a preset angle range, and avoiding collision between the air guide plate 400 and the housing 100 or damage to the transmission components due to excessive rotation.
[0081] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, when the sleeve 5114 rotates in the first direction, one side of the positioning plate 514 contacts the first stop surface for limiting; when the sleeve 5114 rotates in the second direction, the other side of the positioning plate 514 contacts the second stop surface for limiting; the first direction is opposite to the second direction.
[0082] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in some optional embodiments of this utility model, the housing 100 includes a front panel 101, and an air outlet 120 is disposed on the lower part of the front panel 101. A first stop surface is a portion of the inner surface of the front panel 101, and a second stop surface is also a portion of the inner surface of the front panel 101. The positioning plate 514 is perpendicular to the telescopic shaft 513. For example, when the air guide plate extends in the left-right direction, the first stop surface and the second stop surface are located on the upper and lower sides of the rotating part 511, respectively.
[0083] In this embodiment, by directly using the inner surface of the front panel 101 as the first stop surface and the second stop surface, there is no need to add additional independent limiting components, which simplifies the structure of the housing 100 and reduces the processing cost.
[0084] Furthermore, the first stop surface and the second stop surface are integrated into the inner surface of the front panel 101 where the air outlet 120 is located, which is highly compatible with the rotation space of the air guide plate 400, avoiding the occupation of additional lateral space, and is especially suitable for the compact layout inside the embedded air conditioner.
[0085] like Figure 3 As shown, in some optional embodiments of this utility model, the housing 100 is provided with a through hole, through which the rotating part 511 passes. The first driving device 500 also includes a motor 520, and the drive shaft 5112 is fixedly connected to or integrally formed with the output shaft of the motor 520. The motor 520 and the air guide plate 400 are located on both sides of the through hole.
[0086] Specifically, the housing 100 has a mounting portion 1011, and a through hole is formed within the mounting portion 1011. The through hole and the rotating hole are coaxially arranged. In this embodiment, by providing the mounting portion 1011, the installation stability of the rotating portion 511 can be increased. The through hole serves as a connection channel between the motor 520 and the air guide plate 400 side. After the rotating portion 511 passes through, only one side of the motor 520 needs to be fixed, simplifying the assembly process.
[0087] like Figure 1 As shown, in some optional embodiments of this utility model, an air inlet 110 is further provided on the front panel 101, and the air inlet 110 is located above the air outlet 120. The embedded air conditioner indoor unit 10 also includes a sealing plate 300 and a second driving device 200. The sealing plate 300 is rotatably mounted at the air inlet 110 and is used to open or close the air inlet 110. The second driving device is disposed in the housing 100 and configured to drive the sealing plate 300 to rotate.
[0088] In this embodiment, by providing a second driving device 200, it is possible to effectively prevent the sealing plate 300 from getting stuck during the opening or closing of the air inlet 110.
[0089] like Figure 2 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in some optional embodiments of this utility model, the second driving device 200 includes a driving base 210, a driving arm 220, a bushing 222, a plurality of first rollers 230, and a plurality of second rollers 240. The driving base 210 is disposed within the housing 100; the driving base 210 has a guide groove 211. The driving arm 220 is disposed on the driving base 210, and has a protrusion 221 that inserts into the guide groove 211; the bushing 222 is fitted onto the protrusion 221, and the bushing 222 contacts the side wall of the guide groove 211. The plurality of first rollers 230 are mounted on the driving base 210, and the first rollers 230 are disposed on the upper side of the driving arm 220 and contact the driving arm 220; the plurality of second rollers 240 are mounted on the driving base 210, and the second rollers 240 are disposed on the lower side of the driving arm 220 and contact the driving arm 220. Specifically, the first roller 230 and the second roller 240 are located on opposite sides of the drive arm 220, and the guide groove 211 and the protrusion 221 are located on the other side of the drive arm 220.
[0090] When the drive unit 200 is running, the drive arm 220 drives the protrusion 221 to move linearly along the guide groove 211 of the drive seat 210; the bushing 222 forms a sliding friction guide with the side wall of the guide groove 211, while the first and second roller groups arranged symmetrically on both sides dynamically constrain the attitude of the drive arm 220 through rolling contact, forming a "sliding + rolling" composite guidance mechanism. The rollers absorb vibration and correct offset during the movement of the drive arm 220, ensuring that the drive arm 220 moves smoothly in three-dimensional space, and finally efficiently transmits power to the closed plate 300.
[0091] When the second drive device 200 of this embodiment is running, the drive arm 220 slides along the guide groove 211 of the drive seat 210 via the protrusion 221. The first roller 230 and the second roller 240 clamp the drive arm 220 from above and below. The bushing 222 contacts the side wall of the guide groove 211, realizing the low-friction, high-precision linear-rotational motion conversion of the drive arm 220. This drives the sealing plate 300 to smoothly open and close the air inlet, ensuring long-term operation without jamming, low wear, and a compact and durable structure.
[0092] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, there are two guide grooves 211, respectively disposed on both sides of the drive arm 220; and multiple protrusions 221 are disposed on both sides of the drive arm 220, with a bushing 222 disposed on each protrusion 221. In this embodiment, the combination of the symmetrically arranged double guide grooves 211 and multiple protrusions 221-shoulder sleeves 222 on both sides of the drive arm 220 forms a multi-node distributed guide structure, improving the force balance of the drive arm 220; by having multiple protrusions 221 share the motion load, the contact stress between a single bushing 222 and the guide groove 211 is reduced, reducing frictional loss caused by off-center loading; and by the synchronous constraint between the double bushings 222 and the roller assembly, the guiding accuracy of the linear motion of the drive arm 220 is enhanced, avoiding trajectory deviation caused by unilateral wear.
[0093] In some optional embodiments of this utility model, the bushing 222, the first roller 230, and the second roller 240 are all made of POM material. POM (Polyoxymethylene) is a high-density, highly crystalline thermoplastic engineering plastic, often referred to as "metal among plastics" or "plastic steel" due to its properties being close to those of metals. In this embodiment, since the bushing 222, the first roller 230, and the second roller 240 are all made of POM material, and POM material has the characteristics of low coefficient of friction, high wear resistance, and self-lubrication, this embodiment can extend the life of the device and maintain smooth movement, effectively avoiding jamming or trajectory deviation problems caused by material wear.
[0094] like Figure 2 and Figure 10As shown, in some optional embodiments of this utility model, the embedded air conditioner indoor unit 10 further includes a guide rail 310, a slider 421, and a connecting rod 422. The guide rail 310 is disposed on the inner wall of the enclosed plate 300 and extends in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis of the enclosed plate 300. The slider 421 is disposed on the guide rail 310; one end of the connecting rod 422 is fixedly connected to the slider, and the other end is rotatably connected to the front end of the drive arm 220; the connecting rod 422 is inclined relative to the extension direction of the guide rail 310.
[0095] Specifically, the guide rail 310 has a groove, and the slider 421 is located within the groove. When the air conditioner is turned on, the drive arm 220 moves from the inside to the outside along the housing 100, driving the slider 421 to slide along the guide rail 310 via the connecting rod 422, thereby driving the sealing plate 300 to rotate around its rotation axis to open the air inlet 110. When the air conditioner is turned off, the slider 421 drives the drive arm 220 to move in the opposite direction, and the connecting rod 422 drives the slider 421 to slide in the opposite direction along the guide rail 310, pulling the sealing plate 300 back to the position where it completely blocks the air inlet 110.
[0096] This embodiment utilizes the lever effect of the inclined connecting rod 422 to optimize force transmission, continuously pressing the slider 421 against the inner wall of the guide rail 310 groove, avoiding gaps between the slider 421 and the groove, reducing jamming, and improving motion smoothness.
[0097] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in some optional embodiments of this utility model, the second driving device 200 further includes a drive motor 252, a gear 251, and a rack. The drive motor 252 is mounted on the drive base 210; the gear 251 is disposed on the output shaft of the drive motor 252; the rack is disposed on the drive arm 220, and the gear 251 and the rack mesh. In this embodiment, the drive motor 252 directly drives the arm 220 through the meshing of the gear 251 and the rack, thereby improving transmission efficiency and motion synchronization.
