Detailed Implementation

[0014] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0015] The present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0016] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a structure for shared active air intake grille blades includes: a main frame 1, with multiple blades 101 disposed inside the main frame 1, a motor 102 disposed between the multiple blades 101, a drive shaft 103 mounted on the outer end of each motor 102, a connecting rod 104 disposed on the outer side of each of the two drive shafts 103, a secondary shaft 2 mounted on both ends of each blade 101, and an installation assembly disposed between the main frame 1 and the blades 101 for mounting the blades 101. The installation assembly includes: a left pressure plate 3, a right pressure plate 301, an opening 302, and a main shaft 303.

[0017] Among them, five driving holes 201 are opened on one side of the outer end of the two connecting rods 104. The connecting rods 104 can be engaged with the outer side of the sub-shaft 2 through the driving holes 201. Therefore, the two connecting rods 104 can be installed on the inner side of the two sets of blades 101 respectively. The sub-shaft 2 located on the outer side of the blades 101 is a redundant design to ensure that the blades 101 can be installed in any position on the left or right.

[0018] The blades 101 are divided into two groups, and the blades 101 are symmetrical in the left and right. Since all ten blades 101 are mirror symmetrical, they can be interchanged without difference, so that there is no distinction between master and slave blades. This breaks through the constraints of the size and position of the traditional active air intake grille, thereby avoiding the problem of incorrect installation of existing blades 101.

[0019] Among them, a left pressure plate 3 and a right pressure plate 301 are respectively provided on one side of the outer end of the two sets of blades 101. Five openings 302 are provided on the inner side of the left pressure plate 3 and the right pressure plate 301 and on one side of the inner wall of the main frame 1. Five main shafts 303 are installed on both sides of the outer end of the multiple blades 101. The main shafts 303 and the openings 302 can install the two sets of blades 101 between the left pressure plate 3 and the right pressure plate 301 and the main frame 1, so that the mounting assembly can install the blades 101.

[0020] The right pressure plate 301 and the left pressure plate 3 each have three mounting holes 4 on one side of their outer ends. The main frame 1 has six threaded holes 401 on one side of its outer end. The mounting holes 4 are fitted with bolts 402 that are threaded to the threaded holes 401. The threaded holes 401, the mounting holes 4, and the bolts 402 can install the right pressure plate 301 and the left pressure plate 3 on one side of the main frame 1.

[0021] The inner sides of the two connecting rods 104 are connected to the mounting rods 5, the outer ends of the motor 102 are provided with mounting grooves 501 on both sides, and the outer side of the drive shaft 103 is provided with a buckle 502. The buckle 502 can install the drive shaft 103 on the outer side of the mounting rods 5 inside the connecting rods 104, and the mounting groove 501 can connect one end of the drive shaft 103 to the motor 102.

[0022] Working principle: When installing this structure, the motor 102 is installed on one side of the main frame 1. Then, one end of the drive shaft 103 is engaged with the mounting groove 501, and the other end of the drive shaft 103 is engaged with the outside of the mounting rod 5. The drive shaft 103 is then secured to the outside of the mounting rod 5 using the buckle 502, so that the drive shaft 103 connects the connecting rod 104 to the motor 102. Next, the blades 101 are placed on one side of the main frame 1, and one end of the auxiliary shaft 2 inside the blade 101 is inserted into the drive hole 201, while one end of the main shaft 303 inside the blade 101 is inserted into the opening 302 on the inner wall of the main frame 1. Then, ten blades 101 are installed on both sides of the two connecting rods 104 in sequence, and the left pressure plate 3 is placed on the two sets of blades. The leftmost part of the blades 101 is installed on the outside of the main shaft 303 through the opening 302 of the left pressure plate 3. At this time, the mounting hole 4 on one side of the left pressure plate 3 will be aligned with the threaded hole 401. Then, one end of the bolt 402 is passed through the mounting hole 4 and rotated into the threaded hole 401. The bolt 402 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 401, thereby installing the left pressure plate 3 on one side of the main frame 1. The same method is used to install the right pressure plate 301 between the rightmost part of the two sets of blades 101 and the main frame 1. When using this structure, the motor 102 can drive the transmission shaft 103 to drive the connecting rod 104 and the blades 101 to rotate, thereby adjusting the position of the ten blades 101, thus achieving the effect of synchronous opening and closing of the ten blades 101.
