[0022] This utility model proposes an air outlet assembly 100 for a sub-instrument panel.

[0023] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment of this utility model, the air outlet assembly 100 includes an outer shell 1, an inner shell 2, and an air direction adjustment component 3. The outer shell 1 forms an air outlet channel 11 extending longitudinally. At opposite ends of the outer shell 1 along the longitudinal direction, an air inlet 113 and an air outlet 114 communicating with the air outlet channel 11 are respectively formed. The inner wall of the air outlet channel 11 is provided with a slot 116. The inner shell 2 forms an air passage hole 213. At one end of the inner shell 2 along the longitudinal direction and at the position corresponding to the slot 116, a locking block 2121 is provided. The inner shell 2 can extend from the air outlet 114 into the air outlet channel 11, so that the locking block 2121 extends into and engages with the slot 116 respectively, and the outer side of the inner shell 2 abuts against the inner wall of the air outlet channel 11. The air direction adjustment component 3 is installed in the air passage hole 213 and near the air outlet 114. The air direction adjustment component 3 is used to adjust the air outlet direction of the air outlet 114.

[0024] The air outlet assembly 100 of the sub-instrument panel of this utility model forms an air outlet channel 11 through the outer shell 1. The air outlet channel 11 has an air inlet 113 and an air outlet 114. Air conditioning air from the vehicle enters the air outlet channel 11 through the air inlet 113 and is then blown out through the air outlet 114. A slot 116 is provided on the inner wall of the air outlet channel 11, and a locking block 2121 is provided at one end of the inner shell 2 at a position corresponding to the slot 116. When the inner shell 2 is installed from the air outlet 114 into the air outlet channel 11, the locking block 2121 engages with the slot 116, thereby stably installing the inner shell 2 in the air outlet channel. Within the channel 11, and by installing the air direction adjustment component 3 within the air passage 213 formed by the inner shell 2, when cleaning the air direction adjustment component 3 and the air outlet channel 11 is required, it can be removed along with the inner shell 2 from the air outlet channel 11 of the outer shell 1 for separate cleaning. At this time, the air outlet channel 11 of the outer shell 1 is fully open, facilitating cleaning of the interior of the air outlet channel 11. This keeps the air outlet channel 11 and the air direction adjustment component 3 clean, preventing the blowing out of dusty air, improving the air quality inside the vehicle, and effectively maintaining the smooth operation of the air direction adjustment component 3, thereby improving the user experience. In addition, if the air direction adjustment component 3 malfunctions and cannot operate smoothly, it can be quickly removed for repair, making it even more convenient.

[0025] It should be noted that the secondary instrument panel is usually located between the driver's seat and the passenger seat of the vehicle. It can be equipped with cup holders, storage boxes, etc. With the forward direction of the vehicle as the front, the air vent assembly 100 is mainly located on the rear side of the secondary instrument panel and is used to blow air to the rear seats of the vehicle.

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, it should be noted that in this embodiment, the horizontal, vertical, and longitudinal directions refer to the left-right, front-back, and up-down directions, respectively.

[0027] Please see Figure 2 In one embodiment, two mounting steps 115 are respectively provided on the inner walls of opposite sides of the air outlet duct 11, and the step surface of each mounting step 115 is set facing the air outlet 114. Each step surface is provided with a slot 116, and the slot opening of the slot 116 is set facing the air outlet 114. The number of locking blocks 2121 is the same as that of the slots 116 and they are set one-to-one. When the inner shell 2 is located in the air outlet duct 11, one end of the locking block 2121 abuts against the step surface.

[0028] Understandably, by providing an installation step 115 in the air outlet duct 11 and having a slot 116 on the step surface of the installation step 115, when the inner shell 2 is installed into the air outlet duct 11, one end of the locking block 2121 formed on the inner shell 2 abuts against the installation step 115, and the locking block 2121 simultaneously extends into the slot 116. The installation step 115 can effectively prevent the airflow entering the air outlet duct 11 from blowing directly towards the end of the inner shell 2 that forms the locking block 2121, thus avoiding the airflow causing the inner shell 2 to shake and produce abnormal noise, and improving the user experience.

[0029] In one embodiment, the air outlet duct 11 includes an air inlet section 111 and an installation section 112 that are interconnected in the longitudinal direction. The end of the air inlet section 111 away from the installation section 112 has an air inlet 113, and the end of the installation section 112 away from the air inlet section 111 has an air outlet 114. The inner shell 2 can extend into the installation section 112 from the air outlet 114. Two installation steps 115 are formed at the connection between the air inlet section 111 and the installation section 112, and the two installation steps 115 are arranged opposite each other in the vertical direction.

[0030] The air outlet duct 11 includes an air inlet section 111 and an installation section 112. Two installation steps 115 are formed at the connection between the air inlet section 111 and the installation section 112. Each of the two installation steps 115 has a slot 116. Two locking blocks 2121 are respectively engaged with the two slots 116, which further improves the stability of the inner shell 2 installed in the air outlet duct 11 and can effectively prevent the inner shell 2 from loosening and causing abnormal noise.

[0031] Specifically, the vertical dimension of the air inlet section 111 is smaller than the vertical dimension of the installation section 112, thus directly forming two installation steps 115.

[0032] In one embodiment, the mounting section 112 includes two first inner walls 1121 arranged vertically opposite each other and two second inner walls 1122 arranged horizontally opposite each other. The step surfaces of the two mounting steps 115 are connected to the two first inner walls 1121 in a one-to-one correspondence. The side wall of each slot 116 away from the air inlet section 111 is flush with the corresponding first inner wall 1121. Understandably, by aligning the side wall of the slot 116 away from the air inlet section 111 with the first inner wall 1121, when the inner shell 2 extends into the air outlet channel 11, the locking block 2121 can smoothly extend into the slot 116, significantly reducing the assembly difficulty of the inner shell 2, making both assembly during production and disassembly / reassembly during later maintenance smoother.

[0033] Furthermore, the outer shell 1 forms two horizontally spaced air outlet channels 11, and the inner shell 2 includes two interconnected mounting frames 21. The two mounting frames 21 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the two air outlet channels 11. The two mounting frames 21 can extend into the mounting sections 112 of the two air outlet channels 11 respectively. Each mounting frame 21 is provided with a locking block 2121 at one end along the longitudinal direction. Each mounting frame 21 forms an air passage hole 213, and an air direction adjustment component 3 is installed in each air passage hole 213.

[0034] By forming two air outlet channels 11 from the outer casing 1, and installing two mounting frames 21 in the two air outlet channels 11 respectively, each mounting frame 21 forms an air passage 213 and is equipped with an air direction adjustment component 3. The air direction adjustment component 3 on the right can adjust the air outlet direction of the right air outlet channel 11, and the air direction adjustment component 3 on the left can adjust the air outlet direction of the left air outlet channel 11. This allows passengers on both sides of the rear of the vehicle to adjust the air outlet direction of the two air outlet channels 11 as needed, thus improving the riding experience of rear passengers.

[0035] Furthermore, each mounting frame 21 includes two first mounting rods 211 extending vertically and two second mounting rods 212 extending horizontally. The two first mounting rods 211 are spaced apart horizontally, and the two second mounting rods 212 are spaced apart vertically. The top and bottom of each first mounting rod 211 are detachably connected to the two second mounting rods 212, and the two first mounting rods 211 and the two second mounting rods 212 together form a ventilation hole 213. One end of each second mounting rod 212 along the longitudinal direction forms a locking block 2121. Two adjacent first mounting rods 211 on the two mounting frames 21 are connected to each other or integrally formed.

[0036] Understandably, each mounting frame 21 includes two first mounting rods 211 and two second mounting rods 212, and the two first mounting rods 211 and the two second mounting rods 212 are detachably connected, which facilitates disassembly so that the wind direction adjustment component 3 can be removed for more detailed cleaning and maintenance. After the wind direction adjustment component 3 has been used for a long time and is worn out, it can also be replaced separately, saving maintenance costs.

[0037] The two adjacent first mounting rods 211 on the two mounting frames 21 are connected to each other or integrally formed, so that the two mounting frames 21 can be installed in the corresponding mounting channels at the same time without independent installation, saving assembly process. In addition, the two mounting frames 21 can also constrain each other, resulting in better stability.

[0038] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3In one embodiment, the airflow adjustment component 3 includes a toggle knob 33, a plurality of first blades 31, and a plurality of second blades 32. The plurality of first blades 31 are distributed vertically at intervals, each first blade 31 extends horizontally, and each first blade 31 is rotatably connected to two first mounting rods 211 at both ends along the horizontal direction, and the plurality of first blades 31 are connected by a first connecting rod 34. The plurality of second blades 32 are distributed horizontally at intervals, each second blade 32 extends vertically, and each second blade 32 is rotatably connected to two second mounting rods 212 at both ends along the vertical direction, and the plurality of second blades 32 are connected by a second connecting rod 35. The plurality of second blades 32 are disposed on the side of the plurality of first blades 31 away from the air outlet 114. The toggle knob 33 can be slidably sleeved on one of the first blades 31 along the horizontal direction, and one end of the toggle knob 33 is engaged with one of the second blades 32.

[0039] Understandably, the wind direction adjustment component 3 includes multiple first blades 31 and multiple second blades 32. A toggle knob 33 is slidably mounted on the first blades 31 and one end is engaged with a second blade 32. The multiple first blades 31 are linked by a first connecting rod 34, and the multiple second blades 32 are linked by a second connecting rod 35. When the user slides the toggle knob 33 horizontally, the toggle knob 33 directly drives the engaged second blade 32 to rotate, and all second blades 32 are linked through the second connecting rod 35 to achieve left-right wind direction adjustment. When the user slides the toggle knob 33 vertically, the toggle knob 33 directly drives the first blades 31 to rotate, and all first blades 31 are linked through the first connecting rod 34 to achieve up-down wind direction adjustment. By toggling the toggle knob 33 in the up-down and left-right directions, the user can achieve precise control of the air outlet 114's airflow direction, improving the user experience.

[0040] Please combine Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, a fork 331 is provided at one end of the lever 33 near the second blade 32, and the fork 331 forms a slot 332; the second blade 32, which engages with the lever 33, has a notch 322 and two baffles 321, wherein the two baffles 321 are located on one side of the corresponding second blade 32 along the lateral direction and are also located on opposite sides of the notch 322 along the vertical direction, and a vertically extending insert rod 323 is connected between the two baffles 321, and the insert rod 323 extends into the slot 332.

[0041] Understandably, by providing a notch 322 on the corresponding second blade 32 and providing two baffles 321 on one side of the second blade 32 along the lateral direction, with the two baffles 321 located on the upper and lower sides of the notch 322, in the right-side airflow adjustment assembly 3, the two baffles 321 are located on the right side of the corresponding second blade 32. When the right-side lever 33 is moved to the left to its limit position, the lever 331 drives the insert rod 323 to rotate to the left, causing each of the right-side second blades 32 to rotate until the entire air passage 213 is closed, thereby preventing the airflow in the right-side air outlet 11 from exiting through the right-side air outlet 1. 14. Air is blown out; Similarly, in the left-side airflow adjustment component 3, two baffles 321 are set on the left side of the corresponding second blades 32. When the left-side lever 33 is moved to the right to its limit position, the lever 331 drives the insert rod 323 to rotate to the right, so that each of the left-side second blades 32 rotates to close the entire air passage 213, thereby preventing the airflow in the left-side air outlet 11 from being blown out from the left-side air outlet 114; that is, in actual use, the left and right passengers in the rear of the vehicle can adjust the airflow direction of the two air outlets 11 or close the air outlet 114 according to their own needs, improving the user experience.

[0042] Please see Figure 5 This utility model also proposes a sub-instrument panel, which includes a sub-instrument panel body, a panel 200, and an air outlet assembly 100 as described above. An air duct is disposed within the sub-instrument panel body, with an outlet at one end. The panel 200 is disposed on one side of the sub-instrument panel body and has a through hole. One end of the housing 1 forming an air inlet 113 is detachably connected to the end of the air duct forming an outlet, so that the air inlet 113 and the outlet communicate. One end of the housing 1 forming an air outlet 114 is detachably connected to the side of the panel 200 facing the sub-instrument panel body, and the air outlet 114 communicates with the through hole. The specific structure of the air outlet assembly 100 of this sub-instrument panel is as described in the above embodiments. Since this sub-instrument panel adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it possesses at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be elaborated further here.

[0043] Furthermore, by installing the air outlet assembly 100 on the side of the panel 200 facing the sub-instrument body, the panel 200 limits and blocks the air outlet assembly 100 after it is installed on the sub-instrument body, further preventing the air outlet assembly 100 from shaking. One end of the inner shell 2 also cooperates with the mounting step 115, that is, the panel 200 and the mounting step 115 cooperate with each other to limit the inner shell 2 within the mounting section 112, which improves stability. Moreover, when disassembling, the inner shell 2 can be quickly removed from the air outlet duct 11 after the panel 200 is removed.

[0044] Furthermore, a sealing ring 4 is provided on the outer side of the outer casing 1 and near the air inlet 113.
