[0041] Low-temperature polyurethane self-skinning foaming (i.e., polyurethane self-skinning foaming in a low-temperature environment) involves a core chemical reaction where isocyanate and polyol react under a catalyst to form a polyurethane elastomer (also called a polyurethane foam structure). Simultaneously, carbon dioxide gas is released, creating an internal porous structure. The high internal pressure and low temperature of the mold cause the foaming agent in the material near the mold to condense and solidify, forming a dense self-skinning layer on the surface. Its cross-sectional density gradually decreases from the skin to the core; that is, the outer skin has a high density, while the interior (containing pores) has a low density. Different skin thicknesses can be achieved by adjusting the mold temperature, the amount of foaming agent, and the filler content. Lowering the mold temperature increases the skin thickness.

[0042] During molding, low-temperature conditions (such as preheating the mold to 60°C) slow down the decomposition rate of the foaming agent, reducing gas release and thus controlling the expansion rate of the polyurethane foam. Low-temperature self-skinning polyurethane foam possesses characteristics such as low density, odorlessness, high thermal insulation, and aging resistance. It also exhibits strong adhesion to dissimilar materials, and its thermal conductivity decreases with decreasing temperature, exhibiting thermosetting properties. It can withstand high temperatures without easily melting. The thermal conductivity of the polyurethane foam structure produced using this method is 0.018 W / (m*K)~0.028 W / (m*K), lower than that of polystyrene foam (0.033 W / (m*K)~0.040 W / (m*K)) and lower than that of sponge (0.03 W / (m*K)~0.04 W / (m*K). This polyurethane elastomer exhibits excellent thermal insulation in air conditioning cooling mode and high-temperature resistance and aging resistance in air conditioning heating mode, matching the application requirements of the air conditioning fan plate 200.

[0043] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 6As shown, the first side is provided with a polyurethane foam structure (i.e., the first insulation layer 230), which includes a first flexible abutment portion 310, a second flexible abutment portion 320, a third flexible abutment portion 330, and a fourth flexible abutment portion 340; the second side is provided with a second annular groove 240, within which a polyurethane foam structure is provided, which includes a fifth flexible abutment portion 350, a sixth flexible abutment portion 360, a seventh flexible abutment portion 370, and an eighth flexible abutment portion 380 (air panel 200, polyurethane foam structure, fifth flexible abutment portion). 350, the sixth flexible abutment portion 360, the seventh flexible abutment portion 370 and the eighth flexible abutment portion 380 form a wind plate component. The first flexible abutment portion 310 and the third flexible abutment portion 330 are spaced apart in the width direction of the wind plate 200. The second flexible abutment portion 320 and the fourth flexible abutment portion 340 are spaced apart in the length direction of the wind plate 200. The fifth flexible abutment portion 350 and the seventh flexible abutment portion 370 are spaced apart in the width direction of the wind plate 200. The sixth flexible abutment portion 360 and the eighth flexible abutment portion 380 are spaced apart in the length direction of the wind plate 200. In this design, the bottom wall of the second annular groove 240 is provided with through overflow holes 250, which cover the entire bottom wall of the second annular groove 240. The interval t between adjacent overflow holes 250 is set to 2mm~50mm, the length L of each overflow hole 250 is set to 5mm~30mm, and the width n of each overflow hole 250 is set to 2mm~20mm. When this design is used to fabricate a polyurethane foam structure on the first side of the air plate 200, the polyurethane will enter the second annular groove 240 from the overflow holes 250 and form a polyurethane foam structure within the second annular groove 240. This not only simplifies the process but also ensures the high strength of the air plate 200, making it less likely for the polyurethane foam to detach from the air plate 200. When t is too small, the strength of the air plate 200 is insufficient; when t is too large, and L and n are too small, the polyurethane flowability is insufficient, making it difficult to completely fill the second annular groove 240 with the polyurethane foam structure, easily leading to poor foaming. Of course, if... Figures 1 to 3As shown, the wall of the lower air outlet 110 can also be provided with an annular flexible sealing structure 390, and the wall of the front air outlet 120 can also be provided with an annular flexible sealing structure 390. In this way, when the air plate 200 is in the first position, the first flexible abutment part 310, the second flexible abutment part 320, the third flexible abutment part 330 and the fourth flexible abutment part 340 abut against the flexible sealing structure 390 at the wall of the lower air outlet 110, and the sealing effect of the lower air outlet 110 is better. When the air plate 200 is in the second position, the fifth flexible abutment part 350, the sixth flexible abutment part 360, the seventh flexible abutment part 370 and the eighth flexible abutment part 380 abut against the flexible sealing structure 390 at the wall of the front air outlet 120, and the sealing effect of the front air outlet 120 is better. The flexible sealing structure 390 can be a polyurethane foam structure or a polystyrene foam structure located in a groove on the body 100. The flexible sealing structure 390 can also be a silicone ring, a rubber ring, or a sponge, etc.

[0044] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of ribs 260 are protruding on the first side. The plurality of ribs 260 are located inside the polyurethane foam structure and are spaced apart. This can improve the connection strength between the polyurethane foam structure and the air plate 200, and the polyurethane foam structure is less likely to fall off on the first side of the air plate 200.

[0045] In some examples, such as Figures 7 to 11 As shown, the mounting part 130 is provided with a hinge seat 410 ( Figure 8 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 The middle hinge seat 410 is detachably connected to the body 100. The mounting part 130 is provided with a mounting port, and the hinge seat 410 is fixed at the mounting port and seals the mounting port. The first assembly end 210 is provided with a hinge notch 420 (e.g., Figure 7 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown), the hinge seat 410 extends into the hinge notch 420 from the opening of the hinge notch 420 and is hingedly connected to at least one of the opposite sidewalls of the hinge notch 420. When the air plate 200 is in the first position, the opening of the hinge notch 420 is completely located behind the third flexible abutment portion 330 of the first flexible abutment structure. The third flexible abutment portion 330 completely isolates the opening of the hinge notch 420 and the lower air outlet 110, preventing air leakage from the opening of the hinge notch 420 into the lower air outlet 110 when air is discharged from the front air outlet 120; as Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, when the air panel 200 is in the second position, the opening of the hinge notch 420 is completely located below the seventh flexible abutment part 370 of the second flexible abutment structure. The seventh flexible abutment part 370 completely isolates the opening of the hinge notch 420 and the front air outlet 120, preventing air leakage from the opening of the hinge notch 420 into the front air outlet 120 when the lower air outlet 110 is discharging air.

[0046] In this design, one of the opposite sidewalls of the hinge notch 420 and the hinge seat 410 is provided with a hinge shaft, and the other is provided with a C-shaped hinge hole. The hinge shaft is rotatably disposed within the hinge hole to achieve a hinged connection. Furthermore, the left and right sidewalls of the body 100 are hinged to the left and right ends of the first assembly end 210 of the air baffle 200, respectively. In this design, the first assembly end 210 of the air baffle 200 is hinged and positioned at multiple locations in the left-right direction, making the air baffle 200 less prone to bending and deformation during use.
