Furthermore, terms such as "first," "second," and the like, are used herein to distinguish one element from another, and are not necessarily sequential or significant.

As shown in fig. 1 to 14, according to an aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided an air outlet structure. Optionally, the air outlet structure is applied to an air outlet end of an air outlet duct of a vehicle air conditioner, for example, the air outlet end is mounted to an air outlet pipe of the vehicle. The outlet structure includes a vane assembly 100, the vane assembly 100 includes a first vane assembly 10 and a second vane assembly 20, the first vane assembly 10 and the second vane assembly 20 can configure a passage for an air flow to pass through, and the first vane assembly 10 is movably disposed on the second vane assembly 20 to open or close the passage. In other words, the first and second blade assemblies 10 and 20 construct an air flow passage of the outlet structure, and the opening degree of the air flow passage is adjusted by the relative movement of the first and second blade assemblies 10 and 20, having a fully opened position and a closed position.

During the installation, can set up blade subassembly 100 whole in the air-out end of vehicle air conditioner's air-out pipe, the passageway outflow that the interior air current of air-out pipe constructed through first blade subassembly 10 and second blade subassembly 20.

Through the above technical solution, the first blade assembly 10 and the second blade assembly 20 are configured as an outlet opening and closing mechanism, and the opening and closing of the airflow channel of the outlet structure is realized through the movement of the first blade assembly 10 relative to the second blade assembly 20. Also, since the vane assembly 100 can replace the conventional damper structure (damper and associated drive). Therefore, the blade assembly 100 can also meet the requirement for opening and closing the air outlet of the housing 200, so that there is no need to provide a damper structure in the air outlet channel of the vehicle or in the conventional air outlet structure, which is beneficial to simplifying the air outlet system of the vehicle or simplifying the design of the air outlet structure.

Optionally, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 1, 4 and 14, the air outlet structure further includes a housing 200 and an angle adjusting assembly 300, the blade assembly 100 and the angle assembly 30 are both disposed in the housing 200, an air outlet 201 is opened on the housing 200, and the air outlet 201 of the housing 200 can be opened or closed by the cooperation of the first blade assembly 10 and the second blade assembly 20, that is, the first blade assembly 10 moves relative to the second blade assembly 20 to open or close the channel formed by the two, so as to open or close the air outlet 201 of the housing 200, so that the air flow in the air outlet pipe of the vehicle air conditioner can flow out or be blocked through the air outlet 201. The blade assembly 100 is rotatably connected to the housing 200 by the angle adjustment assembly 300 so that the air outlet direction of the blade assembly 100 can be adjusted. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 4, the second blade section 20 is rotatably coupled to the housing 200 by an angle adjustment assembly 300.

Since the second blade assembly 20 is rotatably connected to the housing 200 through the angle adjustment assembly 300, the blade assembly 100 can rotate relative to the housing 200 as a whole, and thus the orientation of the channel between the first blade assembly 10 and the second blade assembly 20 can be adjusted, so that the air outlet direction of the blade assembly 100 can be changed, and the air outlet direction of the air outlet of the housing 200 can be adjusted. In the air outlet structure that this disclosure provided, can satisfy the demand of adjusting the air current direction, reach the effect that provides the impression of blowing of wider scope for the user.

Moreover, it is because the blade assembly 100 integrates the functions of the conventional blades and the conventional air door structure, so that when the air outlet structure of the present application is applied to air outlet ducts of various shapes or structures, the normal operation can still be performed, that is, the direction adjustment and the air outlet opening and closing operations are performed. Has better universality.

It should be noted that, in other embodiments of the present disclosure, the air outlet structure may not be provided with the housing 200, and the blade assembly 100 may be directly installed at the air outlet end of the air outlet pipe of the vehicle air conditioner, as long as it is ensured that the air flow in the air outlet pipe flows out through the channel configured by the first blade assembly 10 and the second blade assembly 20. In addition, the air outlet structure of the present disclosure is not only used for vehicles, but also can be used in the air outlet system of any other device.

In the present disclosure, the structures of the first blade section 10 and the second blade section 20 are not limited, and both may have any suitable structures.

As shown in fig. 4 and 6 to 9, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first blade assembly 10 may include a plurality of first blades 11 having different sizes, the first blades 11 are annular, the plurality of first blades 11 are sleeved (may be concentrically sleeved) and are arranged at intervals in a radial direction, and the first blades 11 include a straight cylinder portion 111 and a flange 112 formed at one end of the straight cylinder portion 111. The second blade assembly 20 includes a casing 21 and a plurality of second blades 22 with different sizes disposed in the casing 21, the plurality of second blades 22 are sleeved (can be concentrically sleeved) and are arranged at radial intervals, each first blade 11 is inserted between two adjacent second blades 22 between two corresponding adjacent second blades 22, and the first blade 11 can slide between two adjacent second blades 22 to shield or partially expose a gap between two corresponding second blades 22 by the turned-over edge 112 of the first blade 11, so as to open or close the air outlet.

In this embodiment, referring to fig. 4 and 8, the air outlet duct of the air outlet structure is divided into a plurality of annular sub-ducts by the plurality of second blades 22, the turned-over edge 112 of the first blade 11 can shield or expose the annular sub-duct between two corresponding second blades 22 during the moving process, and when the turned-over edge 112 shields the annular sub-duct between two corresponding second blades 22, as shown in fig. 12, the duct between the first blade 1 and the second blade 20 is closed, that is, the air outlet 201 of the housing 200 is closed, so as to achieve the effect of blocking ventilation. When the first vane 11 axially slides relative to the second vane 22, referring to the drawing direction of fig. 4, when the first vane 11 moves upward, the turned-up edge 112 exposes the annular sub-ducts so that the air flow can flow out through the respective annular sub-ducts.

In the present disclosure, two adjacent first blades 11 may have a connecting rib 12 therebetween, two adjacent first blades 11 of the plurality of first blades 11 may be connected to each other by a single connecting rib 12, and the plurality of first blades 11 may also be connected to each other by a common connecting rib 12, alternatively, as shown in fig. 6 and 7, the plurality of first blades 11 may be connected to each other by a connecting rib 12 provided at one end of the first blade assembly 10, the connecting rib 12 may be plural, and the plurality of first blades 11 may be configured in an annular grid shape.

The connecting ribs 12 may be formed integrally with the first blades 11 by injection molding, so as to simplify the manufacturing process. Or may be a separate component from the first blade 11 and attached to the first blade 11, for example, by snapping or welding.

It is understood that in other embodiments of the present disclosure, the first blade assembly 10 and the second blade assembly 20 may be formed in other structures, for example, the second blade 22 still has a ring shape, the first blade 11 is hinged at one end of the second blade 22, and the first blade 11 can adjust the opening degree of the gap between two adjacent second blades 22 during the rotation process around the second blade 22, and can completely block or close the gap.

As shown in fig. 8 and 9, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second blade 22 includes a cylindrical portion 221 and a skirt 222 formed at one end of the cylindrical portion 221, and when the passage formed by the first blade assembly 10 and the second blade assembly 20 is in an open state, that is, when the air outlet 201 of the housing 200 is in an open state, a guide air duct is formed between the skirt 222 and the corresponding flange 112.

The distance between the turned-over edge 112 and the skirt 222 after the movement determines the size of each sub-air outlet, and therefore the size of the air output of each guide air duct is determined. In this embodiment, the flange 112 and the skirt 222 function as a baffle, and can guide the airflow.

In the present disclosure, the size of the angle between the burring 112 of the first blade 11 and the straight cylinder portion 111 and the size of the angle between the skirt 222 of the second blade 22 and the cylinder portion 221 are not limited, and as shown in fig. 4, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the passage configured by the first blade assembly 10 and the second blade assembly 20 is in the closed state, that is, when the outlet port of the housing 200 is in the closed state, the outer end surface of the burring 112 and the outer end surface of the skirt 222 are connected to form a circular arc surface recessed toward the inside of the housing 200. That is, the angle between the cuff 112 and the straight cylinder portion 111 is greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees, and the angle between the skirt 222 and the cylinder portion 221 is greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees.

Since the air outlet face formed by the outer end face of the flange 112 and the outer end face of the skirt 222 is lower than the outer end face of the housing 200 when the air outlet 201 is closed, such a structural design has an advantage that when another structure is disposed on the outer end face of the first blade assembly 10, for example, the handheld portion 131 (a specific solution is described below) provided with the shift lever 13 shown in fig. 4, it is convenient to reduce the size of the shift lever 13 protruding from the outer end face of the housing 200, and is beneficial to avoiding interference between the shift lever 13 and other parts.

In the present disclosure, the outer end of the first blade 11 refers to an end of the first blade 11 adjacent to the air outlet, and the inner end of the first blade 11 refers to an end of the first blade 11 away from the air outlet. Referring to fig. 4, an "outer end of the first vane 11" is an upper end of the first vane 11, and an "inner end of the first vane 11" is a lower end of the first vane 11.

In the present disclosure, the first blade assembly 10 is lockably movably disposed on the second blade assembly 20 to enable the wind tunnel to be maintained at a plurality of opening positions. There are various ways in which the lockable movable disposition of the first blade assembly 10 on the second blade assembly 20 can be achieved.

As shown in fig. 4, 5 and 9, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second blade assembly 20 further includes a first connecting bracket 23, the plurality of second blades 22 are respectively mounted on the first connecting bracket 23 and fixed to the housing 21 by the first connecting bracket 23, the first blade assembly 10 further includes a lever 13, the lever 13 is connected to at least one of the first blades 11, and one end of the lever 13 is lockably slidably disposed on the first connecting bracket 23.

Because the shift lever 13 is lockably connected to the first connecting bracket 23, the shift lever 13 can be locked at a predetermined position according to the air output requirement, so as to lock the first blade assembly 10 at a predetermined position, and thus the distance between the turned edge 112 of the first blade 11 and the skirt 222 of the second blade 22 can be adjusted as required, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the size of the air outlet.

In the present embodiment, the first connecting bracket 23 serves to fix the plurality of second blades 22 and also serves to connect the first blade assembly 10, and thus, the blade assembly 100 is dual-purpose, and the number of parts of the blade assembly 100 is reduced, and the structure is simplified. In other embodiments of the present disclosure, two components may be employed separately.

Further, as shown in fig. 5, the shift lever 13 may be located in the middle of the first blade 11, and both ends of the shift lever 13 respectively protrude from both ends of the first blade 11 to form a hand-held portion 131 and a sliding rod portion 132 respectively, and the sliding rod portion 132 is slidably engaged with the first connecting bracket 23. That is, a portion of the lever 13 protruding from the outer end of the first blade 11 forms a hand-held portion 131 for a user to operate, and a portion of the lever 13 protruding from the inner end of the first blade 11 forms a slider portion 132. In this way, as shown in fig. 14, when it is required to adjust the opening degree of the air outlet structure, the hand-held portion 131 may be held, so that the first blade assembly 10 slides in the axial direction with respect to the second blade assembly 20. The slide bar portion 132 can be locked to the first connecting bracket 23 after being adjusted in place.

The manner in which the slider part 132 can be locked to the first connecting bracket 23 can be various. As shown in fig. 5, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the sliding rod portion 132 is fixedly sleeved with the elastic damping ring 30, the first connecting bracket 23 is provided with the damping sleeve 40, and the elastic damping ring 30 is slidably fitted in the damping sleeve 40 with damping. Thus, when the user stops sliding the sliding rod portion 132, the damping force can be provided by the damping sleeve 40 to keep the sliding rod portion 132 at a certain position, so as to keep the size of the air outlet 201. In addition, when the sliding rod portion 132 moves axially along the hole of the damping sleeve 40, the elastic damping ring 30 and the damping sleeve 40 also provide the necessary smoothness for the movement, so as to provide a good operation feeling for the user during the blade movement process, and improve the use feeling of the user.

It will be appreciated that in other embodiments of the present disclosure, the first connecting bracket 23 may be provided with a through hole 232, the sliding rod portion 132 is tightly fitted in the through hole 232, and when the position of the first blade 11 needs to be adjusted, a force may be applied to overcome the tight fitting force between the two, so as to enable the sliding rod portion 132 to slide in the through hole 232.

In this embodiment, during installation, an annular installation groove may be formed on the sliding rod portion 132, and the elastic damping ring 30 is engaged in the annular installation groove to ensure the installation stability of the elastic damping ring 30.

Further, in order to improve the stability of the installation of the elastic damping ring 30, the elastic damping ring 30 and the sliding rod portion 132 are prevented from moving relatively. As shown in fig. 5, the sliding rod portion 132 is further sleeved with a first limiting ring 51 and a second limiting ring 52, and the first limiting ring 51 and the second limiting ring 52 are respectively located at two sides of the elastic damping ring 30 and are respectively abutted against the elastic damping ring 30. In this way, when the damping ring moves axially along the damping sleeve 40, the first and second position-limiting rings 51 and 52 can further ensure the mounting stability of the elastic damping ring 30 on the sliding rod portion 132.

In the present disclosure, the material of the elastic damping ring 30 is not limited, and may be any suitable material such as rubber or felt.

In the present disclosure, a limiting structure may be provided to limit the moving stroke of the first blade assembly 10, and the present disclosure does not limit the specific composition of the limiting structure. Optionally, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, a first limiting portion 133 and a second limiting portion may be axially disposed on the lever 13 at an interval, wherein the first limiting portion 133 is close to the handheld portion 131 of the lever 13 relative to the second limiting portion, the first limiting portion 133 is configured to cooperate with the first connecting bracket 23 to limit the first blade assembly 10 when the air outlet 201 is in the closed position (i.e., when the channel formed by the first blade assembly 10 and the second blade assembly 20 is in the closed position), and the second limiting portion is configured to cooperate with the first connecting bracket 23 to limit the first blade assembly 10 when the air outlet 201 is in the fully open position (i.e., when the channel formed by the first blade assembly 10 and the second blade assembly 20 is in the fully open position). In this way, while avoiding the situation that the first blade assembly 10 and the second blade assembly 20 are separated, the hand feeling experience when the air outlet is fully opened and closed can be provided for the user.

The first and second position-limiting portions 133 and 133 may be formed in any suitable structure. As shown in fig. 5, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, a position of the sliding rod portion 132 near one end of the first blade 11 is formed with a limiting step, which is a first limiting portion, the sliding rod portion 132 is inserted into the first connecting bracket 23, and the limiting step cooperates with one side of the first connecting bracket 23 near the first blade 11 to limit a closing position of the air outlet.

Alternatively, the second limiting portion may be a limiting protrusion (e.g., the first limiting ring 51 shown in fig. 5) disposed on the sliding rod portion 132, and during the movement of the first blade assembly 10 toward the direction of increasing the opening degree of the air outlet (e.g., upward as shown in fig. 4), after a certain distance is passed, the limiting protrusion (the first limiting ring 51) may be attached to the side of the first connecting bracket 23, which is away from the handheld portion 131 of the deflector rod 13, so as to limit the movement of the first blade assembly 10 and achieve complete opening of the air outlet.

In other embodiments of the present disclosure, the sliding rod portion 132 may be formed as a three-section shaft, the diameters of the shaft sections at the two ends are larger than the diameter of the shaft section at the middle portion, and the diameters of the shaft sections at the two ends are larger than the diameter of the through hole 232 on the first connecting bracket 23, so as to locate the shaft section in the first connecting bracket 23, and thus, the movement limitation of the first blade assembly 10 can be realized by reasonably designing the length of the shaft section.

As shown in fig. 9, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first connecting bracket 23 may be a cross-shaped bracket, and each of the second blades 22 is provided with four first slits 223, and the four first slits 223 are correspondingly engaged with the four extending sections 231 of the cross-shaped bracket. Thus, the plurality of second blades 22 are connected into a whole, and the installation is convenient.

Optionally, the opening can be a T-shaped opening, which is beneficial to avoiding the second blade 22 and the first connecting bracket 23 from being accidentally separated, and can improve the installation stability of the two.

Optionally, as shown in FIG. 9, the second blade assembly 20 further includes a second connecting bracket 24, and the second connecting bracket 24 includes a connecting portion 241 for connecting with the inner wall of the housing 21 and a catch 242 for connecting with the angle adjusting assembly 300.
