For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0051] The air type regulating mechanism 100 according to the embodiments of the present application is described below with reference to FIGS. 1-15.
[0052] With reference to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, the air type regulating mechanism 100 according to the embodiments of the present application is adapted to be arranged at the air outlet side of the driving fan 5 of the fan 200, and plays a role of adjusting the flow direction of the airflow. It should be noted that the airflow flowing through the air type regulating mechanism 100 is generally spiral, which has a circumferential component velocity and an axial component velocity.
[0053] The air type regulating mechanism 100 according to the embodiments of the present application comprises: an air duct adjusting piece 1, the air duct adjusting piece 1 is formed with an airflow adjusting cavity 11, the airflow adjusting cavity 11 has a first central axis, and the inner wall of the airflow adjusting cavity 11 is deflectable relative to the vertical plane of the first central axis under the action of the air duct adjusting piece 1. With reference to FIGS. 6 and 8, the air type regulating mechanism 100 has a wind gathering mode and a wind scattering mode, and the inner wall of the airflow adjusting cavity 11 deflects a larger angle relative to the vertical plane in the wind scattering mode than in the wind gathering mode, so that the airflow is limited by the inner wall of the airflow adjusting cavity 11 in the wind gathering mode, and the airflow is guided to diffuse outward by the inner wall of the airflow adjusting cavity 11 in the wind scattering mode.
[0054] It should be noted that the first central axis is the same as the extension direction of the airflow adjusting cavity 11, and the "vertical plane" does not refer to a plane extending in the vertical direction, but only refers to a plane perpendicular to the first central axis.
[0055] When the airflow flows into the airflow adjusting cavity 11, the inner wall of the airflow adjusting cavity 11 can guide the airflow to adjust the air outlet feeling and the air outlet range of the airflow flowing out of the air duct adjusting piece 1, and when the air duct adjusting piece 1 is adjusted, the inner wall of the airflow adjusting cavity 11 formed by the air duct adjusting piece 1 can deflect relative to the vertical plane of the first central axis, so that the adjustment effect of the inner wall of the airflow adjusting cavity 11 on the airflow can be adjusted.
[0056] The wind type regulation mechanism 100 has a wind gathering mode and a wind scattering mode. When the wind type regulation mechanism 100 is in the wind gathering mode, the inner wall of the air flow adjusting cavity 11 is arranged at an angle with the vertical plane, and the inner wall of the air flow adjusting cavity 11 can regularize the air flow, so that the circumferential component velocity of the air flow is converted into the axial component velocity, thereby causing the air flow out of the air duct adjusting piece 1 to gather towards the first central axis.
[0057] When the wind type regulation mechanism 100 is in the wind scattering mode, the included angle between the inner wall of the air duct adjusting piece 1 and the vertical plane is larger than that when the wind type regulation mechanism 100 is in the wind gathering mode, so as to reduce the adjustment of the circumferential component velocity of the air flow by the inner wall of the air flow adjusting cavity 11. When the air flow out of the air duct adjusting piece 1, the air flow can still maintain a certain circumferential component velocity, so that the air flow out of the air duct adjusting piece 1 is in a conical shape, and the air flow is in a diverging state.
[0058] The wind type regulation mechanism 100 in the embodiment of the present application can adjust the air outlet range and the air outlet intensity by arranging the air duct adjusting piece 1. When the wind type regulation mechanism 100 is in the wind gathering mode, the air flow out of the air duct adjusting piece 1 gathers towards the first central axis, that is, the air flow out of the air duct adjusting piece 1 is in a converging state, and the air outlet intensity of the air flow is larger. When the wind type regulation mechanism 100 is in the wind scattering mode, the air flow out of the air duct adjusting piece 1 diverges away from the first central axis, that is, the air flow out of the air duct adjusting piece 1 is in a diverging state, and the air outlet area of the air flow is larger. The air duct adjusting piece 1 can be switched between the wind gathering mode and the wind scattering mode, so that the wind type regulation mechanism 100 has different working states. The user can adjust the working state of the wind type regulation mechanism 100 according to the actual demand, so as to meet the use demand of the user.
[0059] Referring to FIGS. 3, 5 and 6, the wind type regulation mechanism 100 according to the embodiment of the present application further comprises a protection ring 2. In the direction parallel to the vertical plane, the protection ring 2 is located outside the air duct adjusting piece 1, and at least the air outlet end of the air duct adjusting piece 1 is movably located in the protection ring 2.
[0060] At least the air outlet end of the air duct adjusting piece 1 is movably located in the protection ring 2, so that the air duct adjusting piece 1 is protected by the protection ring 2, thereby reducing the risk of collision and interference between external objects and the air duct adjusting piece 1, reducing the risk of damage to the air duct adjusting piece 1, and prolonging the service life of the wind type regulation mechanism 100.
[0061] In order to distinguish the air outlet end of the protection ring 2 and the air outlet end of the air duct adjusting piece 1, the air outlet end of the protection ring 2 is a first air outlet end, and the air outlet end of the air duct adjusting piece 1 is a second air outlet end.
[0062] Because the second air outlet end of the air duct adjusting piece 1 is located in the protection ring 2, that is, the airflow blows out from the second air outlet end of the air duct adjusting piece 1 and then needs to pass through the first air outlet end of the protection ring 2. In the embodiment of the present application, in the direction parallel to the vertical plane, the protection ring 2 is located outside the air duct adjusting piece 1, that is, in the direction parallel to the first central axis, the protection ring 2 does not have a structure that blocks the air outlet of the air duct adjusting piece 1, for example, the first air outlet end of the protection ring 2 is open, and after the airflow blows out from the air duct adjusting piece 1, the airflow can be directly discharged, thereby reducing the wind resistance, increasing the air volume, and enhancing the performance of the fan 200.
[0063] According to the air type regulation mechanism 100 in the embodiment of the present application, the air duct adjusting piece 1 is arranged to adjust the air outlet range and the air outlet intensity. When the air type regulation mechanism 100 is in the air gathering mode, the air outlet intensity of the airflow is greater, and when the air type regulation mechanism 100 is in the air scattering mode, the air outlet area of the airflow is greater. The air duct adjusting piece 1 can be switched between the air gathering mode and the air scattering mode to meet different use requirements of the user. The protection ring 2 protects the air duct adjusting piece 1, reduces the risk of collision and interference between external objects and the air duct adjusting piece 1, reduces the risk of damage to the air duct adjusting piece 1, and prolongs the service life of the air type regulation mechanism 100. In the direction parallel to the vertical plane, the protection ring 2 is located outside the air duct adjusting piece 1, the airflow can be directly discharged after blowing out from the air duct adjusting piece 1, thereby reducing the wind resistance, increasing the air volume, and enhancing the performance of the fan 200.
[0064] Referring to FIGS. 3, 5 and 6, in some embodiments of the present application, the air duct adjusting piece 1 includes a plurality of swing leaves 12. The plurality of swing leaves 12 are arranged in the circumferential direction of the first central axis, and the airflow adjusting cavities 11 are defined between the plurality of swing leaves 12. Each swing leaf 12 is rotatable relative to the protection ring 2, and at least a portion of each swing leaf 12 is located in the protection ring 2. The air duct adjusting piece 1 in the embodiment of the present application has a simple structure, thereby reducing the cost of the air type regulation mechanism 100.
[0065] Specifically, a plurality of swing leaves 12 are arranged, and the plurality of swing leaves 12 are uniformly arranged in the circumferential direction of the first central axis to form the air duct adjusting piece 1 into a ring shape, and an air outlet 13 is formed at the air outlet end of the air duct adjusting piece 1. The air inlet end of each swing leaf 12 is rotatably connected to the protection ring 2, and when the air inlet end of the swing leaf 12 rotates, the air outlet end of each swing leaf 12 can move towards or away from the first central axis, thereby adjusting the area of the air outlet 13 of the air duct adjusting piece 1 to reduce or increase the area of the air outlet 13, so that the air duct adjusting piece 1 can be switched between the air scattering mode and the air gathering mode. Referring to FIGS. 6 and 8, the air outlet 13 area of the air duct adjusting piece 1 in the air gathering mode is smaller than the air outlet 13 area of the air duct adjusting piece 1 in the air scattering mode.
[0066] It can be understood that when the air inlet end of the swing leaf 12 drives the air outlet end of the swing leaf 12 to rotate towards the direction close to the first central axis, the plurality of swing leaves 12 contract in the radial direction, the area of the air outlet 13 is small, the plurality of swing leaves 12 can regularize the airflow to convert the circumferential component velocity of the airflow into the axial component velocity, so that the air outlet intensity is large, the wind feeling is strong, and the wind channel adjusting piece 1 realizes the wind gathering mode; when the air inlet end of the swing leaf 12 drives the air outlet end of the swing leaf 12 to rotate away from the first central axis, the plurality of swing leaves 12 expand in the radial direction, the area of the air outlet 13 increases, and the swing leaf 12 has small interference to the circumferential component velocity of the airflow. When the airflow is discharged from the wind channel adjusting piece 1, the airflow can still maintain a certain circumferential component velocity, so that the air outlet area is large, the air outlet is soft, and the wind channel adjusting piece 1 realizes the wind dispersing mode.
[0067] It should be noted that at least a part of each swing leaf 12 defined in the above embodiments is located in the protection ring 2, which means that at least the air outlet end of the swing leaf 12 is located in the protection ring 2. For example, in some embodiments, the swing leaf 12 is rotationally connected to the structure outside the protection ring 2, the air inlet end of the swing leaf 12 is located outside the protection ring 2, and the air outlet end of the swing leaf 12 is located inside the protection ring 2; for another example, in some other embodiments, the swing leaf 12 is rotationally connected to the structure inside the protection ring 2, that is, the swing leaf 12 is rotationally arranged inside the protection ring 2.
[0068] Referring to FIGS. 6, 7 and 8, in some embodiments of the present application, adjacent swing leaves 12 have overlapping regions in the circumferential direction of the first central axis.
[0069] Specifically, the air inlet ends of the plurality of swing leaves 12 are sequentially and spaced apart in the circumferential direction, and parts of the adjacent swing leaves 12 can be arranged in an overlapping manner. For example, the swing leaves 12 can include a first swing leaf 121, a second swing leaf 122 and a third swing leaf 123, and the first swing leaf 121, the second swing leaf 122 and the third swing leaf 123 are sequentially and adjacently arranged. In the arrangement direction of the plurality of swing leaves 12, one side of the first swing leaf 121 can be overlapped on the second swing leaf 122, and one side of the second swing leaf 122 away from the first swing leaf 121 can be overlapped on the third swing leaf 123, so as to realize that adjacent swing leaves 12 have overlapping regions, to reduce the gap between adjacent swing leaves 12, reduce the air leakage of the wind channel adjusting piece 1, and ensure the air outlet effect of the air type regulation mechanism 100.
[0070] Referring to FIGS. 7 and 9, in some embodiments of the present application, in the wind gathering mode, the cross-sectional area of the wind channel adjusting piece 1 gradually decreases in the direction towards the air outlet 13; and / or, in the wind dispersing mode, the cross-sectional area of the wind channel adjusting piece 1 gradually increases in the direction towards the air outlet 13.
[0071] Specifically, in the wind gathering mode, the distance between the inner wall of the air duct adjusting piece 1 and the first central axis gradually decreases in the direction towards the air outlet 13, that is, the air duct adjusting piece 1 gradually shrinks towards the first central axis to guide the airflow to gradually concentrate, which is beneficial to increase the flow distance of the airflow in the air outlet direction and can enhance the intensity of the airflow, so that the airflow is more powerful when flowing out of the air type regulation mechanism 100.
[0072] It should be noted that the "inner wall" refers to the side wall surface of the air duct adjusting piece 1 close to the first central axis in the radial direction.
[0073] Specifically, in the wind gathering mode, the distance between the inner wall of the air duct adjusting piece 1 and the first central axis gradually decreases in the direction towards the air outlet 13, that is, the air duct adjusting piece 1 gradually shrinks towards the first central axis to guide the airflow to gradually concentrate, which is beneficial to increase the flow distance of the airflow in the air outlet direction and can enhance the intensity of the airflow, so that the airflow is more powerful when flowing out of the air type regulation mechanism 100.
[0074] Or, in the wind gathering mode, the distance between the inner wall of the air duct adjusting piece 1 and the first central axis gradually decreases in the direction towards the air outlet 13, and in the wind scattering mode, the distance between the inner wall of the air duct adjusting piece 1 and the first central axis remains constant in the direction towards the air outlet 13.
[0075] Or, in the wind gathering mode, the distance between the inner wall of the air duct adjusting piece 1 and the first central axis remains constant in the direction towards the air outlet 13, and in the wind scattering mode, the distance between the inner wall of the air duct adjusting piece 1 and the first central axis gradually increases in the direction towards the air outlet 13.
[0076] In some embodiments of the present application, each swing leaf 12 is formed as an arc-shaped plate.
[0077] Specifically, the plurality of swing leaves 12 are arranged in sequence in the circumferential direction, and each swing leaf 12 is formed as an arc-shaped plate, that is, in the radial direction, the inner side wall (that is, the side wall surface of the swing leaf 12 close to the first central axis in the radial direction) of each swing leaf 12 is arc-shaped and rises away from the first central axis, so as to reduce the influence of the shape of the inner wall of the air duct adjusting piece 1 on the airflow, achieve the purpose of reducing wind resistance, and ensure the flow effect of the airflow.
[0078] Referring to FIGS. 3, 10 and 11, in some embodiments of the present application, the air duct adjusting piece 1 includes a plurality of swing leaves 12, the plurality of swing leaves 12 are arranged in the circumferential direction along the first central axis, the plurality of swing leaves 12 define the above-mentioned airflow adjusting cavity 11 therebetween, each swing leaf 12 is rotatable relative to the protection ring 2, at least a portion of each swing leaf 12 is located within the protection ring 2, and the inner wall of the protection ring 2 is provided with a wind guide surface 20 for guiding the airflow to diffuse outward.
[0079] When the wind type regulation mechanism 100 is in the scattering mode, compared with the wind type regulation mechanism 100 being in the gathering mode, the angle between the inner wall of the air duct adjusting piece 1 and the vertical plane is larger, a gap appears between the two adjacent swing leaves 12, and part of the airflow flows into the space between the protection ring 2 and the swing leaf 12, and then blows out from the first air outlet end of the protection ring 2.
[0080] In the embodiments of the present application, at least part of the inner wall of the protection ring 2 is arranged as the air guide surface 20 for guiding the airflow to diffuse outward, the airflow entering the space between the protection ring 2 and the swing leaf 12 blows out under the guidance of the air guide surface 20, the adjusting effect of the inner wall of the protection ring 2 on the circumferential component velocity of the airflow is reduced, and the airflow flowing out of the air guide surface 20 can still maintain a certain circumferential component velocity. In the scattering mode, the air guide surface 20 cooperates with the air duct adjusting piece 1, the airflow flowing out of the air guide surface 20 converges with the airflow flowing out of the airflow adjusting cavity 11, and the scattering effect of the wind type regulation mechanism 100 is further enhanced.
[0081] If the outer side of the air duct adjusting piece 1 is not provided with the protection ring 2, the airflow flowing in the gap between the two adjacent swing leaves 12 cannot converge with the airflow in the airflow adjusting cavity 11, and the air volume is lost.
[0082] That is to say, the protection ring 2 not only can protect the air duct adjusting piece 1, reduce the risk of collision and interference between external objects and the air duct adjusting piece 1, and reduce the risk of damage to the air duct adjusting piece 1, but also can guide part of the airflow and enhance the scattering effect of the wind type regulation mechanism 100 in the scattering mode.
[0083] It should be understood that when the wind type regulation mechanism 100 is in the gathering mode, compared with the wind type regulation mechanism 100 being in the scattering mode, the arrangement of the plurality of swing leaves 12 is more compact, the overlapping area of the two adjacent swing leaves 12 is larger, and there is almost no gap between the two adjacent swing leaves 12, so that the airflow blown out by the driving fan 5 is basically gathered in the direction close to the first central axis under the guidance of the air duct adjusting piece 1, and the air outlet strength is enhanced. A very small part of the airflow flows into the space between the protection ring 2 and the swing leaf 12, but this part of the airflow is too small to be ignored.
[0084] In some embodiments of the present application, the air guide surface 20 is formed as an inclined surface in the longitudinal section parallel to the first central axis.
[0085] In the embodiments of the present application, the structure of the air guide surface 20 is simple, easy to form, and reduces the cost of the wind type regulation mechanism 100.
[0086] In some further embodiments, the air guide surface 20 is formed as an inclined surface in the longitudinal section parallel to the first central axis, and the angle between the inner wall of the airflow adjusting cavity 11 and the air guide surface 20 in the scattering mode is Q, and Q satisfies: -15°≤Q≤15°.
[0087] When the air type regulation mechanism 100 is in the air diffusion mode, a gap appears between the two adjacent swing leaves 12, and part of the air flow will flow into the space between the protection ring 2 and the swing leaves 12 from the gap. The air flow between the protection ring 2 and the swing leaves 12 will be blown out under the guidance of the air guide surface 20, and then will be combined with the air flow out of the air flow regulation chamber 11. In order to ensure the air diffusion effect of the air type regulation mechanism 100, the flow direction of the air flow out of the air guide surface 20 is preferably parallel to the flow direction of the air flow out of the air flow regulation chamber 11. That is, preferably, the inner wall of the air flow regulation chamber 11 in the air diffusion mode is parallel to the air guide surface 20. At this time, the air flow out of the air guide surface 20 and the air flow out of the air flow regulation chamber 11 will not interfere with each other, and the air diffusion effect of the air type regulation mechanism 100 is best.
[0088] If the angle Q between the inner wall of the air flow regulation chamber 11 and the air guide surface 20 in the air diffusion mode is greater than 15°, the distance between the air outlet end of the air guide surface 20 and the air outlet end of the air flow regulation chamber 11 will be too large. Compared with the air flow out of the air flow regulation chamber 11, the circumferential component velocity of the air flow out of the air guide surface 20 is larger, and the axial component velocity is smaller, which affects the axial component velocity of the air flow out of the air type regulation mechanism 100 as a whole, and shortens the air supply distance of the air type regulation mechanism 100.
[0089] If the angle Q between the inner wall of the air flow regulation chamber 11 and the air guide surface 20 in the air diffusion mode is less than -15°, the distance between the air outlet end of the air guide surface 20 and the air outlet end of the air flow regulation chamber 11 will be too small. Compared with the air flow out of the air flow regulation chamber 11, the circumferential component velocity of the air flow out of the air guide surface 20 is smaller, and the axial component velocity is larger, which affects the circumferential component velocity of the air flow out of the air flow regulation chamber 11, that is, affects the divergence of the air flow, and reduces the air diffusion effect of the air type regulation mechanism 100.
[0090] Therefore, in the embodiments of the present application, the range of the angle Q between the inner wall of the air flow regulation chamber 11 and the air guide surface 20 in the air diffusion mode is limited, and Q satisfies: -15°≤Q≤15°. Within this range, the air flow out of the air guide surface 20 has less influence on the air flow out of the air flow regulation chamber 11, and the air type regulation mechanism 100 has better air diffusion effect.
[0091] In some specific embodiments, the angle Q between the inner wall of the air flow regulation chamber 11 and the air guide surface 20 in the air diffusion mode is 5°, and in some other embodiments, the angle Q between the inner wall of the air flow regulation chamber 11 and the air guide surface 20 in the air diffusion mode can also be -15°, -5°, 7°, 12°, or other degrees.
[0092] In some of the above-mentioned embodiments, the air guide surface 20 is formed as an inclined surface in a longitudinal section parallel to the first central axis. Referring to FIG. 12, in other embodiments, the air guide surface 20 can also be formed as an arc surface in a longitudinal section parallel to the first central axis. In the embodiments of the present application, the air guide surface 20 is formed as an arc surface, which reduces the influence of the shape of the air guide surface 20 on the airflow, thereby reducing the wind resistance and ensuring the flow effect of the airflow.
[0093] Referring to FIG. 3, in some embodiments of the present application, the first air outlet end of the protection ring 2 protrudes outwardly beyond the second air outlet end of the air duct adjusting member 1 in a direction parallel to the first central axis on the air outlet side of the airflow adjusting cavity 11.
[0094] In the embodiments of the present application, the second air outlet end of the air duct adjusting member 1 is located within the protection ring 2, and the second air outlet end of the air duct adjusting member 1 is at a certain distance from the first air outlet end of the protection ring 2, which further reduces the risk of collision and interference between external objects and the air duct adjusting member 1, reduces the risk of damage to the air duct adjusting member 1, and prolongs the service life of the air type regulation mechanism 100.
[0095] In some preferred embodiments, the distance H between the first air outlet end and the second air outlet end in a direction parallel to the first central axis satisfies: 0 < H ≤ 15 mm.
[0096] If the distance H between the first air outlet end and the second air outlet end is greater than 15 mm, the first air outlet end of the protection ring 2 will protrude outwardly beyond the second air outlet end of the air duct adjusting member 1 by too much, which will increase the overall space occupied by the air type regulation mechanism 100, and is not conducive to the miniaturization of the fan 200.
[0097] In the embodiments of the present application, the range of the distance H between the first air outlet end and the second air outlet end is limited, so that the protection ring 2 can well protect the air duct adjusting member 1, and at the same time, the overall size of the air type regulation mechanism 100 is within a suitable range, and the structure of the fan 200 will not be bloated.
[0098] In some of the above-mentioned embodiments, the first air outlet end of the protection ring 2 protrudes outwardly beyond the second air outlet end of the air duct adjusting member 1 in a direction parallel to the first central axis on the air outlet side of the airflow adjusting cavity 11. Referring to FIG. 7, in other embodiments, the first air outlet end of the protection ring 2 is flush with the second air outlet end of the air duct adjusting member 1 in a direction parallel to the first central axis on the air outlet side of the airflow adjusting cavity 11, that is, the distance H between the first air outlet end and the second air outlet end is 0, as long as the second air outlet end of the air duct adjusting member 1 is located within the protection ring 2, which is within the protection scope of the present application.
[0099] Referring to FIG. 11, in some embodiments of the present application, in the air diffusion mode, the maximum distance between the air duct adjusting member 1 and the protection ring 2 is a, and a satisfies: 0≤a≤15mm.
[0100] In the air diffusion mode, the smaller the maximum distance a between the air duct adjusting member 1 and the protection ring 2 is, the better. When the protection ring 2 is completely attached to the air duct adjusting member 1 (i.e., a is 0), the airflow cannot move between the air duct adjusting member 1 and the protection ring 2, at this time, all the airflow moves in the airflow adjusting cavity 11, and the air diffusion effect of the air duct adjusting member 1 is the most ideal.
[0101] However, in order to prevent mechanical injury (such as pinching hands, etc.), in some embodiments, a gap is left between the air duct adjusting member 1 and the protection ring 2, that is, the maximum distance a between the air duct adjusting member 1 and the protection ring 2 is greater than 0. The maximum distance a between the air duct adjusting member 1 and the protection ring 2 should not be too large. The larger the gap between the air duct adjusting member 1 and the protection ring 2, the more airflow flows between the air duct adjusting member 1 and the protection ring 2, the smaller the influence of the protection ring 2 on the part of the airflow, and the more uncontrollable the movement direction and speed of the airflow out of the air type control mechanism 100 as a whole.
[0102] Therefore, in the embodiments of the present application, the maximum distance a between the air duct adjusting member 1 and the protection ring 2 is limited to 0≤a≤15mm, which reduces the risk of the movement direction and speed of the airflow out of control, and ensures the air diffusion effect of the air type control mechanism 100 in the air diffusion mode.
[0103] Referring to FIGS. 3, 7 and 9, in some embodiments of the present application, the air type control mechanism 100 further comprises an airflow adjusting member 3, which is arranged in the extension direction of the first central axis and is spaced apart from the air duct adjusting member 1. The airflow adjusting member 3 comprises a plurality of guide vanes 30 arranged in the front-rear direction. The plurality of guide vanes 30 comprises a plurality of front guide vanes 31 and a plurality of rear guide vanes 32. The plurality of front guide vanes 31 is located on the outflow front side of the plurality of rear guide vanes 32 and can rotate relative to the plurality of rear guide vanes 32. The plurality of front guide vanes 31 is arranged in the circumferential direction. The plurality of rear guide vanes 32 is arranged in the circumferential direction. In the air concentration mode, the plurality of front guide vanes 31 and the plurality of rear guide vanes 32 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence in the front-rear direction. In the air diffusion mode, the plurality of front guide vanes 31 and the plurality of rear guide vanes 32 are arranged in the circumferential direction.
[0104] It should be noted that the plurality of guide vanes 30 is at least two guide vanes 30, that is, the plurality of guide vanes 30 can be two guide vanes 30, three guide vanes 30 or four guide vanes 30 arranged in the front-rear direction. It should also be noted that each guide vane 30 comprises a plurality of guide vanes 30 arranged in the circumferential direction, that is, the plurality of front guide vanes 31 is located in the same layer, and the plurality of rear guide vanes 32 is located in the same layer.
[0105] Specifically, the plurality of front guide vanes 31 are arranged in sequence and spaced apart in the circumferential direction, a front gap is formed between every two adjacent front guide vanes 31 for the airflow to pass through, the plurality of rear guide vanes 32 are arranged in sequence and spaced apart in the circumferential direction, a rear gap is formed between every two adjacent rear guide vanes 32 for the airflow to pass through, and the front guide vanes 31 and the rear guide vanes 32 are arranged along the extension direction of the first central axis, the front guide vanes 31 are located at the air outlet end of the rear guide vanes 32, the airflow flows through the rear guide vanes 32 from the air inlet end of the rear guide vanes 32 and flows into the gap between the plurality of front guide vanes 31 through the air outlet end of the rear guide vanes 32, and the rear guide vanes 32 and the front guide vanes 31 can both guide the airflow, thereby adjusting the flow direction of the airflow.
[0106] Further, the plurality of front guide vanes 31 and the plurality of rear guide vanes 32 can move relative to each other to switch the airflow adjusting member 3 between the air concentrating mode and the air diffusing mode. Referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, in the air concentrating mode, the plurality of front guide vanes 31 and the plurality of rear guide vanes 32 are arranged one by one and correspondingly in the extension direction of the first central axis, at this time, the front gap and the rear gap are opposite to each other, the airflow flows into the rear gap, the rear guide vanes 32 guide the airflow, and then the airflow continues to flow into the front gap, so that the front gap further guides the airflow, the circumferential component velocity of the airflow is converted into the axial component velocity, so that the airflow can be concentrated towards the first central axis, the front gap and the rear gap form a continuous flow space, the front guide vanes 31 and the rear guide vanes 32 can continuously guide the airflow, so as to continuously adjust the airflow, improve the flow regulation effect of the airflow adjusting member 3 on the airflow, improve the effect of converting the circumferential component velocity of the airflow into the axial component velocity, reduce the flow area of the airflow in the radial direction when the airflow flows out of the airflow adjusting member 3, so that the airflow after flowing out presents a cylindrical shape, and the axial velocity of the airflow when flowing out is large, so that the air outlet intensity is large.
[0107] Referring to FIGS. 8 and 9, in the air diffusing mode, the front projection of each rear guide vane 32 is located between the front projections of every two adjacent front guide vanes 31 in the extension direction of the first central axis, that is, the rear guide vanes 32 are arranged opposite to the front gap in the axial direction, so as to realize the misalignment of the plurality of front guide vanes 31 and the plurality of rear guide vanes 32 in the circumferential direction, the misalignment of the front gap and the rear gap, and the front guide vanes 31 and the rear guide vanes 32 cannot continuously guide the airflow. Compared with the air concentrating mode, the guiding time of the airflow by the rear guide vanes 32 when the airflow flows into the rear gap is short, and similarly, the guiding time of the airflow by the front guide vanes 31 when the airflow flows into the front gap is short. The flow regulation effect of the airflow adjusting member 3 on the airflow is reduced as a whole, the airflow can maintain the circumferential component velocity when flowing through the airflow adjusting member 3, so that the airflow presents a conical shape when flowing out of the airflow adjusting member 3, and the divergence state of the airflow when flowing out is ensured.
[0108] It should be noted that the size of the front side gap in the direction parallel to the first central axis is the length dimension of the front side gap, and the size of the rear side gap in the direction parallel to the first central axis is the length dimension of the rear side gap.
[0109] The air flow adjusting piece 3 is provided, the air flow adjusting piece 3 is provided with a front side vane 31 and a rear side vane 32, in the air gathering mode, the front side vane 31 and the rear side vane 32 are oppositely arranged in the front-rear direction, the front side vane 31 and the rear side vane 32 can continuously guide the air flow, improve the guiding effect of the air flow adjusting piece 3 on the air flow, improve the effect of converting the circumferential component velocity of the air flow into the axial component velocity, reduce the flow area of the air flow in the radial direction when the air flow flows out of the air flow adjusting piece 3, and make the axial velocity of the air flow when the air flow flows out large, the air flow is in a converging state when the air flow flows out, and the air outflow intensity is large; in the air scattering mode, the air flow adjusting piece 3 has small air flow straightening effect, and the circumferential component velocity of the air flow can be maintained when the air flow flows through the air flow adjusting piece 3, so that the air flow can be in a conical shape when the air flow flows out of the air flow adjusting piece 3, and the divergence state of the air flow when the air flow flows out is ensured. Therefore, the air type control mechanism 100 adjusts the air outflow range and the air outflow intensity of the air flow, and the working state of the air type control mechanism 100 can be switched, and the user can adjust the working state of the air type control mechanism 100 according to the actual use demand to meet different use demands of the user.
[0110] In some embodiments, the air duct adjusting piece 1 is located on the air outflow side of the air flow adjusting piece 3.
[0111] In the air gathering mode, after the air flow adjusting piece 3 converges and adjusts the air flow, the air flow flows to the air duct adjusting piece 1, the air duct adjusting piece 1 can further converge and straighten the air flow, and ensure the convergence effect of the air flow flowing out of the air type control mechanism; in the air scattering mode, the spiral air flow maintains the circumferential component velocity after passing through the air flow adjusting piece 3, and the air duct adjusting piece 1 can further maintain the circumferential component velocity of the air flow after the air flow flows out of the air flow adjusting piece 3, and ensure the divergence effect of the air flow flowing out of the air type control mechanism 100.
[0112] Therefore, by cooperating the air duct adjusting piece 1 with the air flow adjusting piece 3, the guiding effect of the air type control mechanism 100 on the air flow is improved, thereby improving the adjusting effect of the air type control mechanism on the air flow, and making the air outflow feeling have obvious differences, which is beneficial to meet different use demands of the user and improve the use experience of the user.
[0113] In some embodiments of the present application, the front side vane 31 and the rear side vane 32 are formed in a circular arc shape.
[0114] Specifically, the cross section of the front guide vane 31 perpendicular to the first central axis is formed in a circular arc shape, and similarly, the cross section of the rear guide vane 32 perpendicular to the first central axis is also formed in a circular arc shape, so as to reduce the wind resistance when the air flow flows through the front guide vane 31 and the rear guide vane 32, and ensure the flow effect of the air flow. Of course, it can be understood that the front guide vane 31 and the rear guide vane 32 can also be formed in other shapes, for example, formed in a straight line type.

[0122] Each swing leaf 12 is connected with two mounting arms 125, and the two ends of the pivot shaft 124 are connected between the two mounting arms 125, further improving the stability of the swing leaf 12.
[0123] Specifically, in some embodiments, the front side vane 31 is mounted on the fixed ring 33, and the rear side vane 32 is mounted on the rotating ring 34, i.e., the fixed ring 33 is arranged between the mounting portion 21 of the protection ring 2 and the rotating ring 34, the pivot shaft 124 of the swing leaf 12 is rotatably arranged between the mounting portion 21 and the fixed ring 33, and the mounting portion 21 and the fixed ring 33 are connected by fasteners, which are screws or bolts, having high connection stability and low cost.

[0126] Referring to FIG. 7 and FIG. 14, in some embodiments, the rotation of the swing leaf 12 is linked with the rotation of the rotation ring 34 to improve the smoothness of the switching of the air type adjustment mechanism 100 between the air gathering mode and the air scattering mode.
[0127] Specifically, the swing leaf 12 is connected with the guide rod 126, and the guide rod 126 is arranged on the side of the mounting arm 125 away from the swing leaf 12.
[0128] The rotation ring 34 is provided with a plurality of guide portions 341 arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction, and the guide portions 341 extend in the radial direction away from the rotation ring 34 to be opposite to the guide rod 126.

The guide rod 126 is arranged in the guide groove 342. When the rotation ring 34 rotates relative to the fixed ring 33, the inner groove wall of the guide groove 342 can press against the guide rod 126 to make it slide in the guide groove 342. At the same time, since the guide groove 342 is arranged obliquely, the guide rod 126 slides in the guide groove 342, and at the same time, the guide rod 126 moves obliquely in the radial direction towards the first central axis or away from the first central axis. For example, the guide groove 342 can drive the end of the guide rod 126 away from the swing leaf 12 to move in the radial direction towards the first central axis, at this time, the air outlet end of the swing leaf 12 rotates away from the first central axis; when the guide groove 342 drives the end of the guide rod 126 away from the swing leaf 12 to move in the radial direction away from the first central axis, at this time, the air outlet end of the swing leaf 12 rotates towards the first central axis.
