As disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication, there is a method of driving by using separate motors for the respective directions of up, down, left, and right.

要がある。本発明では、一方の往復運動をウォームギヤ
を経由する歯車機構により変換し、他方の往復運動をリ
ンク機構により変換する。In order to adjust the vertical and horizontal wind directions by one motor, it is necessary to convert the rotational direction of the motor shaft into two different reciprocating motions. In the present invention, one reciprocating motion is converted by the gear mechanism passing through the worm gear, and the other reciprocating motion is converted by the link mechanism.

が弱くなり、均一な室温分布が得られないためである。In the present invention, the reciprocating motion converting mechanism is not a link mechanism, but one side is a gear mechanism. This is for maintaining the independence of vertical and horizontal wind direction adjustment. That is, in the case of the link mechanism, the reciprocating motion also makes one step (one reciprocation) while the motor makes one revolution, so
When both left and right directions are adopted, for example, when blowing upward, only leftward is blown, and rightward is not blown. This is because the room temperature distribution cannot be obtained.

する。With respect to the above-described wind direction adjusting mechanism, a means for setting the wind direction of the blown air in various ways according to the use situation of the user is to separate the power transmission members such as gears and links from the wind direction blades to the motor. It is configured so that the driving force of (1) is not transmitted to the blades and the wind direction blades can be manually set in position.

ような構成になっている。The rotational driving force of the motor 3 is transmitted to the gear 5 via the worm gear 4, converted into reciprocating motion by the connecting rod 6, and transmitted to the connecting rod 7. The connecting rod 7 is restrained from moving in the direction shown in FIG. 1 and reciprocates on a straight line in the left-right direction. On the other hand, the left and right wind direction adjusting blades 2 fixed to the connecting rod 7 are as shown in FIG. Since the position is fixed via the washer 13, it moves left and right in accordance with the movement of the connecting rod 7, and consequently changes the wind direction of the blown wind to the left and right. Next, in FIG. 1, the arm 8 rotating integrally with the worm gear 4 transmits the driving force to the arm 10 through the connecting rod 9. The arm 10 is constrained to move in the direction shown in FIG. 2 and reciprocates on the constrained arc. The vertical wind direction adjusting blade 1 fixed to the arm 10 in response to the reciprocating movement is the blade of the arm 10. Reciprocates around the center of rotation, and as a result, changes the direction of the blown wind up and down. Further, the connecting rod 6 and the connecting rod 9 are configured to be easily detachable, and when the connecting rod 6 is removed, the connecting rod 7
Does not receive the driving force of the motor 3, the left and right airflow direction adjusting blades 2 can be manually fixed, and similarly, when the connecting rod 9 is removed, the up and down airflow direction adjusting blades 1 can be manually fixed. Is becoming

という効果がある。According to the present embodiment, since the vertical airflow direction adjusting blade 1 is driven by the link mechanism, the vertical airflow direction adjusting blade 1 also reciprocates once while the motor 3 makes one rotation, while the left and right airflow direction adjusting blade 2 The reciprocating speed can be arbitrarily adjusted by changing the number of teeth of the gear 5. Therefore, the up-down airflow direction adjusting blade 1 and the left-right airflow direction adjusting blade 2 can continue the reciprocating motion without mutual interference, sufficiently mix the air in the air-conditioned room, and uniformize the room temperature distribution to improve comfort. effective. Further, since the same motor 3 can adjust the wind direction in the vertical and horizontal directions, there is an effect that the space occupied in the machine can be minimized and the cost is low. Further, the wiring route of the power wiring of the motor 3 can be simplified, and the assembling workability can be improved. When the user wants to fix the wind direction for use, it can be easily set by removing the connecting rod 6 and the connecting rod 9, and the wind direction of the blowing air can be variously set according to the use situation of the user. effective.
