Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of household appliance technology, and in particular to an air conditioning device. Background Technology

[0002] Air conditioning equipment typically includes air guide components to direct airflow. These components are driven by motors to achieve automatic adjustment of airflow direction.

[0003] In existing air conditioning equipment, the motor driving the air guide assembly is typically fixed with screws. Specifically, a flange or mounting plate with screw holes is usually provided on the axial end face of the motor housing. A corresponding mounting base or support is provided on the housing. During installation, the motor needs to be aligned with the mounting base along its axis, and then a tool is used to screw the screws through the support and into the motor's mounting plate in the same axial direction to complete the fixing.

[0004] This axial fastening method has significant limitations. To provide the necessary operating space for the fastening tools, sufficient clearance must be reserved on one side of the motor's axis. This clearance directly increases the overall length or depth of the air conditioning unit, hindering the design of a thinner and more compact product. In the pursuit of ultra-thin modern home appliance designs, this additional axial space due to the installation method has become a technical bottleneck restricting further size reduction. Furthermore, the need for aligning holes and fastening from one side of the axis is relatively cumbersome, impacting assembly efficiency.

[0005] Therefore, how to provide a motor fixing structure that does not require reserving operating space on the axial side of the motor, can effectively reduce the overall length of the equipment, and simplifies the installation steps is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art.

[0006] The information disclosed in this background section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the background technology of this application, and therefore may include prior art that is not known to those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0007] In response to the problems mentioned in the background art, this application provides an air conditioning device in which the drive motor of the air guide component can be embedded in the receiving part of the housing in its radial direction, eliminating the need to reserve operating space for installation tools on the axial side of the motor, greatly reducing the overall length of the device and making the product more compact in its structural layout.

[0008] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention employs the following technical solution: In some embodiments of this application, an air conditioning device is provided, comprising: a housing having an air outlet; and a guide vane disposed within the housing, the guide vane having at least one pivot end and pivotally disposed at the air outlet; a drive motor disposed on the housing and adjacent to the pivot end, the drive motor being pulsatorically connected to the guide vane; an integrally formed receiving portion for accommodating the drive motor on the housing, the receiving portion including a plurality of mutually spaced support ribs, wherein at least a portion of the support ribs has grooves, the grooves on the at least a portion of the support ribs collectively defining an installation space for accommodating the motor; the drive motor being configured to be radially embedded in the receiving portion; and a locking member configured to fix the drive motor in the receiving portion along the radial direction of the drive motor.

[0009] In some embodiments of this application, the locking element is a clamp, which straddles the drive motor and is fixed to the housing. Using a clamp as the locking element results in a simple structure, low cost, and quick and convenient installation, further improving assembly efficiency.

[0010] In some embodiments of this application, the housing is provided with a limiting groove that mates with one end of the clamp; one end of the clamp is inserted into the limiting groove, and the other end is fixed to the housing by a fastener. This clamp-on-machine installation method, with one end inserted and the other fastened, further simplifies the assembly process, ensures precise positioning, stable installation, and high efficiency.

[0011] In some embodiments of this application, the locking element includes at least one fastener, the housing has screw holes, and the drive motor has mounting holes corresponding to the screw holes; the fastener passes through the mounting holes and screw holes along the radial direction of the drive motor, fixing the drive motor within the receiving portion. This method of direct locking with fasteners offers extremely high connection reliability and a robust structure, making it suitable for applications requiring high vibration resistance; it also reduces the number of components and lowers cost.

[0012] In some embodiments of this application, a shaft connector is also included. The guide vane is provided with a rotating shaft portion. One end of the shaft connector is drive-connected to the output shaft of the drive motor, and the other end is drive-connected to the rotating shaft portion. By setting an independent shaft connector, the transmission of motor power to the guide vane can be conveniently realized, while also compensating for installation errors and simplifying assembly.

[0013] In some embodiments of this application, the housing is provided with a support portion, and the shaft connector is formed with a pivot portion; the support portion is provided with a support groove with a radial opening, and the pivot portion is received in the support groove by a snap-fit ​​method. The inner wall of the support portion provides rotational support for the pivot portion, and the snap-fit ​​installation method allows for quick installation and disassembly of the motor, shaft connector, and air guide vanes after assembly.

[0014] In some embodiments of this application, the opening of the slot is provided with an undercut structure that mates with the pivot portion, for confining the pivot portion within the support groove. Providing an undercut structure at the opening prevents the pivot portion of the shaft connector from accidentally dislodging from the support groove after the drive motor is installed and positioned, thus increasing the reliability and safety of the connection.

[0015] In some embodiments of this application, the air guide assembly further includes a swashplate assembly, which includes multiple swashplates and a linkage mechanism for driving the multiple swashplates to rotate synchronously; the multiple swashplates are rotatably mounted on the air guide blades. By adding a swashplate assembly to the air guide blades, left-right air guidance and three-dimensional air delivery can be achieved.

[0016] In some embodiments of this application, the plurality of blades are divided into at least two independent blade groups; the linkage mechanism correspondingly includes at least two independent linkage mechanisms for driving one of the corresponding blade groups respectively. This structure can realize zoned airflow function to meet more personalized air supply needs.

[0017] In some embodiments of this application, the air guide blade includes a first cover plate and a second cover plate that interlock, and the linkage mechanism is accommodated between the first cover plate and the second cover plate. Integrating the linkage mechanism of the air guide blade inside the blade not only makes the product appearance simpler and more aesthetically pleasing, but also effectively protects the internal mechanical structure from dust contamination and external damage.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are: In the above embodiments, the air conditioning equipment, by radially embedding the motor into the integrally formed receiving part of the housing and fixing it with locking components, changes the traditional installation method that requires screw fastening from the rear axial direction of the motor. This structure eliminates the need to reserve any operating space for installation tools on the axial side of the motor, thereby greatly reducing the overall length of the air conditioning equipment and making the product more compact in structural layout, especially suitable for compact air conditioning products. At the same time, the support ribs on the receiving part not only reliably support the motor, but the gaps between the support ribs also form heat dissipation channels, which is conducive to the timely dissipation of heat generated during motor operation. In addition, the radial embedding and locking installation method simplifies the installation operation, streamlines the installation steps, and improves assembly efficiency.

[0028] like Figures 1-10 As shown, some embodiments of this application provide an air conditioning device. This air conditioning device aims to solve the technical problem in the prior art where the use of axial screws to fix the drive motor 220 leads to an increase in the overall length of the device, which is not conducive to compact design.

[0029] The air conditioning equipment provided in this application embodiment is, for example, a wall-mounted air conditioner indoor unit, a cabinet air conditioner indoor unit, or an integrated air conditioner.

[0030] See Figure 1 The air conditioning equipment mainly includes a casing 100, a heat exchanger and a fan assembly located inside the casing 100, and an air guide assembly 200 for controlling the airflow direction.

[0031] The housing 100 forms the external outline of the air conditioning unit and provides a mounting base and protection for the internal components.

[0032] The housing 100 is typically composed of components such as a chassis, a front cover 110, side panels, and a top cover. In some embodiments of this application, the front side of the housing 100 is mainly the front cover 110.

[0033] like Figure 6 The front cover 110 is provided with an air outlet 111, which is typically provided to extend along the length direction (e.g., horizontal direction) of the front cover 110.

[0034] After the air temperature is regulated by the heat exchanger, it is blown into the room from the air outlet 111 by the fan assembly.

[0035] The air guide assembly 200 is installed at the air outlet 111 to guide the blown airflow to meet the user's requirements for the air delivery angle.

[0036] The air guide assembly 200 includes at least one rotatably mounted air guide blade 210 and at least one drive motor 220 for driving the air guide blade 210 to rotate.

[0037] The air guide vane 210 has at least one pivot end and is pivotally mounted at the air outlet 111; the drive motor 220 is mounted on the housing 100 and adjacent to the pivot end.

[0038] In this embodiment, the rotation axis of the air guide vane 210 is consistent with the extension direction of the air outlet 111, that is, it is set along the length direction of the front cover 110.

[0039] The drive motor 220 is located at one or both ends of the air guide blade 210. By driving the air guide blade 210 to rotate around its axis, the air outlet angle is changed.

[0040] The core technical solution of this application lies in the mounting structure of the drive motor 220.

[0041] like Figure 4 As shown, on the back of the front cover 110, near the air outlet 111 and where the drive motor 220 needs to be installed, there is a receiving part 112.

[0042] The receiving part 112 and the front cover 110 are integrally molded structures. That is, the receiving part 112 is a structural feature directly formed during the injection molding of the front cover 110, rather than a separate additional part. This integrated design can effectively reduce the number of parts, reduce production and assembly costs, while ensuring structural strength and installation accuracy.

[0043] The receiving part 112 has an inner wall that is adapted to the outer peripheral contour of the drive motor 220 in order to stably support and position the motor.

[0044] For example, if the drive motor 220 is a common cylindrical shape, the inner wall of the receiving portion 112 can be formed as a semi-circular or larger arc surface. In some designs, it can also be a nearly complete arc surface, leaving only an opening for embedding.

[0045] The drive motor 220 is configured to be directly embedded in the receiving portion 112 along its radial direction, that is, in the direction perpendicular to its output shaft axis.

[0046] Unlike the traditional installation method where the motor is aligned axially with the mounting hole, the radial insertion installation of the drive motor 220 greatly simplifies the installation process. The operator only needs to push the motor forward from the rear side of the front cover 110 (i.e., the back side of the front cover 110) into the receiving part 112 to complete the initial positioning.

[0047] To prevent the radially embedded drive motor 220 from dislodging from the receiving portion 112, this application also provides a locking element.

[0048] The locking element is configured to fix the drive motor 220 in the receiving portion 112 in the radial direction of the drive motor 220.

[0049] The locking element serves to securely fix the drive motor 220 within the receiving portion 112, preventing it from moving radially or axially, thus achieving a stable installation. The locking element can take various structural forms, which will be illustrated below.

[0050] like Figure 7 As shown, the receiving part 112 is composed of a plurality of support ribs 113 arranged at intervals between each other.

[0051] These support ribs 113 can be sheet-like structures, arranged parallel to the axial direction of the drive motor.

[0052] Among them, at least a portion of the support ribs 113 located in the middle position have grooves 1131 that are adapted to the outer periphery of the motor.

[0053] When the motor is radially inserted, its housing is accommodated within the mounting space defined by the grooves 1131 on these support ribs 113.

[0054] While providing segmented and stable support for the motor, the multiple support ribs 113 naturally form gaps between adjacent support ribs 113, which constitute heat dissipation channels.

[0055] When an electric motor operates for an extended period of time, it generates heat. This heat can be carried away by the flowing air through the heat dissipation channels, thereby improving the motor's heat dissipation performance and ensuring its operational stability and long-term reliability.

[0056] The aforementioned air conditioning equipment, by radially embedding the motor into the integrally formed receiving portion 112 of the housing 100 and securing it with locking components, changes the traditional installation method where the motor needs to be tightened with screws from the axial side. This structure eliminates the need to reserve any operating space for installation tools on the axial side of the motor, thereby significantly reducing the overall length of the air conditioning equipment and making the product more compact in its structural layout, especially suitable for compact air conditioning products. Simultaneously, the support ribs 113 on the receiving portion 112 not only reliably support the motor, but the gaps between the support ribs also form heat dissipation channels, facilitating the timely dissipation of heat generated during motor operation. Furthermore, the radial embedding and locking installation method simplifies the installation process, improves assembly efficiency, and simplifies the installation steps.

[0057] In other embodiments, the receiving portion 112 may also be a continuous, integral groove structure without supporting ribs 113, which can also achieve the support and limitation of the motor.

[0058] In some embodiments, a specific structural form of the locking element is provided.

[0059] See Figure 4 The locking element can be a 300 clamp.

[0060] The clamp 300 can be made of a flexible metal sheet or an engineering plastic with a certain strength and toughness.

[0061] The overall shape of the clamp 300 can be designed as U-shaped or C-shaped, and the curvature of its inner side matches the outer periphery of the drive motor 220.

[0062] During installation, after the motor is inserted into the receiving part 112, the clamp 300 is placed across the motor from the rear side, and its two ends are then fixed to the housing 100 in a certain way. In this way, the clamp 300 acts like a pressure plate, firmly pressing the motor into the receiving part 112.

[0063] The clamp 300 has a low cost, simple structure, and is easy to install and disassemble.

[0064] In some embodiments, to achieve faster installation, such as Figure 4 The housing 100 can be pre-set with a structure that mates with the clamp 300.

[0065] For example, a limiting groove 114 is provided on the front cover 110 at one end corresponding to the clamp 300.

[0066] During installation, the operator only needs to tilt one end of the clamp 300 and insert it into the limiting groove 114 to complete the initial positioning.

[0067] Then, press down the other end of the clamp 300 and fix it to the screw post 115 reserved on the housing 100 with a fastener (such as a self-tapping screw).

[0068] This method of inserting at one end and securing at the other reduces the number of fasteners and operating steps compared to the method of fixing with screws at both ends. It makes positioning simpler and faster, and further improves assembly efficiency.

[0069] In other embodiments, both ends of the clamp 300 may be fixed by screws or by a snap-fit ​​structure, depending on the design requirements of the product.

[0070] In some embodiments, another specific structural form of the locking element is provided (not shown).

[0071] The locking element may include at least one fastener, such as a screw.

[0072] In this design, the housing of the drive motor 220 needs to have mounting holes pre-set, which can be threaded holes.

[0073] Correspondingly, a corresponding screw hole (usually a through hole without threads) is also provided on the housing 100 (which may be on the wall of the receiving part 112 or at a position adjacent to the receiving part 112).

[0074] Once the motor is radially inserted into the receiving part 112 and accurately positioned, the screw holes on the housing 100 are aligned with the mounting holes on the motor.

[0075] At this point, the fasteners are passed through the screw holes of the housing 100 and the mounting holes of the motor in the radial direction of the drive motor 220, and tightened. The locking force of the fasteners securely connects the motor to the housing 100.

[0076] The connection method, which uses fasteners for direct fastening, offers extremely high reliability and a robust structure, making it suitable for applications requiring high vibration resistance. It also eliminates components such as clamps (e.g., 300mm), resulting in fewer parts and lower costs.

[0077] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, in order to transmit the rotational motion of the drive motor 220 to the guide vane 210, this application also includes a shaft connector 230.

[0078] The shaft connector 230 can be a separate injection molded part, for example, made of wear-resistant materials such as POM (polyoxymethylene).

[0079] An integrally formed rotating shaft 211 for connection is provided on the air guide blade 210.

[0080] The shaft connector 230 has different structures at both ends. One end is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 220 for transmission. To prevent relative rotation, this connection can be made using a non-circular fit, for example, if the motor's output shaft is a D-shaped shaft, the corresponding end of the shaft connector 230 can be a D-shaped hole.

[0081] The other end of the shaft connector 230 is connected to the rotating shaft 211 on the air guide vane 210 for transmission, which can also be achieved by non-circular plug-in or other methods.

[0082] By setting an independent shaft connector 230, the installation coaxiality error between the motor and the air guide blade 210 can be effectively compensated, reducing the requirements for assembly accuracy.

[0083] In some embodiments, to further improve the ease of installation and operational stability of the air guide assembly 200, see [reference needed]. Figure 7 On the front cover 110, a support portion 116 is integrally formed between the receiving portion 112 and the installation position of the air guide blade 210.

[0084] The support 116 can be specifically represented as a baffle or rib structure extending from the back of the front cover 110 to provide intermediate support for the shaft connector 230.

[0085] Correspondingly, a cylindrical pivot portion 231 is integrally formed in the middle part of the shaft connector 230.

[0086] The support portion 116 is provided with a support groove 1161 with a radial opening for supporting the pivot portion 231. The support groove 1161 can be C-shaped or U-shaped.

[0087] During installation, first assemble the drive motor 220, shaft connector 230 and air guide blade 210. Then, align the pivot part 231 of the shaft connector 230 with the radial opening of the support groove 1161 and press it gently. The pivot part 231 will be accommodated in the support groove 1161 by snap-fit.

[0088] The inner wall of the support groove 1161 provides rotational support for the pivot portion 231, allowing the shaft connector 230 to rotate freely around its own axis. This snap-fit ​​installation method eliminates the need for screws or other fasteners, simplifying the assembly and disassembly process. Furthermore, the snap-fit ​​of the shaft connector 230 into the support groove 1161 also serves as a pre-positioning mechanism, facilitating subsequent fastening of the clamp to the drive motor.

[0089] In some embodiments, to further improve the reliability of the snap-fit ​​structure, an undercut structure (not shown in the figure) is also provided at the radial opening of the support groove 1161.

[0090] The buckle structure can be one or two tiny, flexible barbs set at the edge of the opening.

[0091] When the pivot portion 231 is pressed into the support groove 1161, the barb undergoes elastic deformation. After passing the barb, the barb springs back, thereby locking the pivot portion 231 in the groove. This prevents the pivot portion 231 from accidentally coming out of the support groove 1161 after the drive motor 220 is installed and positioned, thus increasing the reliability and safety of the connection.

[0092] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 In order to achieve a more flexible and three-dimensional air delivery effect, the air guide assembly 200 may further include a sway vane assembly 240.

[0093] Specifically, such as Figure 9 As shown, the oscillating blade assembly 240 includes a plurality of vertical oscillating blades 241 and a linkage mechanism 242 for driving the oscillating blades 241 to rotate synchronously.

[0094] It should be noted that in this application, the guide vane 210 is a horizontal guide vane responsible for vertical sweeping, and the oscillating blade assembly 240 is a vertical oscillating blade 241 responsible for horizontal sweeping.

[0095] Multiple oscillating blades 241 are rotatably mounted on transverse guide vanes 210 via their pivot shafts.

[0096] The linkage mechanism 242 connects multiple pendulum blades 241 into a whole. When the linkage mechanism 242 moves, it can drive all the pendulum blades 241 to rotate synchronously and at the same angle.

[0097] By adding a sway blade assembly 240 responsible for lateral airflow to the airflow guide blade 210 that is responsible for vertical airflow, a two-stage airflow guide structure is formed.

[0098] Through a two-stage air guide structure, the air conditioning equipment can simultaneously perform vertical and horizontal air sweeping, achieving a wider three-dimensional air supply coverage.

[0099] Furthermore, since the oscillating blade assembly 240 is integrally mounted on the air guide blade 210, when the user needs to clean it, the air guide blade 210, together with the entire oscillating blade assembly 240 on it, can be removed from the housing 100 as a whole, which greatly simplifies the cleaning and maintenance work and improves the convenience of the product.

[0100] In some embodiments, such as Figure 9As shown, the air guide blade 210 is formed by two parts, the first cover plate 212 and the second cover plate 213, which are fastened together. The linkage mechanism 242 can be hidden between the front cover 212 and the rear cover 213, making the appearance of the air guide blade and even the entire air conditioning outlet more concise and smooth, making the product appearance more concise and beautiful, while also effectively protecting the internal mechanical structure from dust pollution and external force damage.

[0101] In some embodiments, such as Figure 9 and Figure 10 In order to achieve zoned airflow and meet more personalized air supply needs, multiple oscillating blades 241 are divided into at least two independent oscillating blade groups.

[0102] The linkage mechanism 242 accordingly includes at least two independent linkage mechanisms 242 for driving a corresponding sway blade group respectively.

[0103] For example, the swaying blades 241 on the left side are divided into a first swaying blade group 241a, and the swaying blades 241 on the right side are divided into a second swaying blade group 241b.

[0104] Correspondingly, the linkage mechanism 242 is also divided into two independent linkage mechanisms, namely a first linkage mechanism and a second linkage mechanism.

[0105] The first linkage mechanism is used only to drive the first blade group 241a, while the second linkage mechanism is used only to drive the second blade group 241b.

[0106] The two linkage mechanisms can be manually controlled or driven by two independent micro motors, allowing for independent control of the airflow direction in the left and right air outlet areas.

[0107] In other embodiments, the blades 241 may also be divided into three or more groups to achieve more refined airflow control, and the structural principle is the same as that of being divided into two groups.
