As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the air supply device according to the embodiment of the present invention includes an air duct housing 1, an air cavity is formed in the air duct housing 1, an air outlet 2 is formed on an air duct side wall 12 of the air duct housing 1, and an air door 3 for opening and closing the air outlet 2 is disposed at the air outlet 2. The air door 3 is hinged with the air duct shell 1 through a rotating shaft 31 perpendicular to the air duct bottom plate 11, a guide shaft 32 on the air door 3 penetrates through an arc groove 111 on the air duct bottom plate 11, and the circle center of the arc groove 111 is located on the rotating axis of the rotating shaft 31. Further, when the damper 3 is opened or closed, the guide shaft 32 moves along the arc groove 111. In order to drive the air door 3 to open or close, a rotatable guide disc 4 is arranged on one side of the air duct bottom plate 11 away from the air cavity, a guide groove 41 is arranged on the guide disc 4, and one end of the guide shaft 32 extends into the guide groove 32 through the circular arc groove 111, so that when the guide disc 4 rotates, the guide groove 41 can drive the guide shaft 32 to rotate around the rotating shaft 31 to drive the air door 3, and the air door 3 can swing between an open position and a closed position. Compared with the prior art, the shape of positioning disk 4 can be fine narrow space in the adaptation wind channel, easy overall arrangement, and it is rotatory through positioning disk 4, opening or closing of air door 3 can be controlled in the cooperation of guide way 41 and guiding axle 32, thus, when needs set up a plurality of air doors 3, only need set up guide way 41 in the position of the guiding axle 32 that corresponds each air door 3 on positioning disk 4, can realize opening or closing of controlling a plurality of air doors 3, at this moment, only need set up a motor control positioning disk 4 rotatory, need not set up a plurality of motors, and then the cost is reduced.
In order to realize the temperature change of a plurality of storerooms of the refrigerator, a plurality of air ducts can be arranged, and meanwhile, an air door 3 is arranged at the inlet of each air duct (namely, an air outlet 2 of the air duct shell 1). As shown in fig. 2, for setting up three air outlets 2, and all set up the schematic structural diagram of air door 3 in every air outlet 2 department, specifically, a plurality of air outlets 2 have been seted up on the wind channel lateral wall 12, every air outlet 2 department all is equipped with an air door 3, in order to control three air door 3 simultaneously, many circular arc grooves 111 have been seted up on the wind channel bottom plate 11, many guide ways 41 have been seted up on the positioning disk 4, the guiding axle 32 of an air door 3 corresponds and passes an circular arc groove 11 and stretches into a guiding groove 41, and thus, when the positioning disk 4 is rotatory, many guide ways 41 can drive a plurality of guiding axles 32 respectively and rotate around its corresponding rotation axis 31, so that a plurality of air doors 3 swing between open position and closed position, and then realize the control to a plurality of air doors 3.
Referring to fig. 4, the position and shape of the guide groove 41 determines the direction in which the guide groove 41 can apply force to the guide shaft 32, that is, determines the movement state of the damper 3. In order to open and close the damper 3, the guide groove 41 includes an opening guide section 411 and a closing guide section 412 that communicate with each other, and referring again to fig. 5, 6 and 7, when the guide shaft 32 is located in the opening guide section 411, the guide shaft 32 slides relative to the opening guide section 411 as the guide disc 4 rotates, and the opening guide section 411 can apply a force to the guide shaft 32 that rotates to the open position to rotate the damper 3 to the open position; similarly, when the guide shaft 32 is located in the closing guide section 412, the guide shaft 32 slides relative to the closing guide section 412 as the guide disk 4 rotates, and the closing guide section 412 can apply a force to the guide shaft 32 to rotate toward the closed position, so that the damper 3 rotates toward the closed position.
For convenience of description, fig. 5, 6, and 7 show states when the guide disc 4 is rotated counterclockwise by 5 degrees, 10 degrees, and 15 degrees from the initial position, respectively.
In order to smooth the opening and closing motion of the damper 3, as shown in fig. 4, the opening guide section 411 and the closing guide section 412 are both linear grooves. Thus, the directions of the forces applied to the guide shaft 32 by the opening guide section 411 and the closing guide section 412 are linearly changed, so that the damper 3 can be smoothly and gradually opened or closed.
Since a plurality of dampers 3 are provided and it may be necessary to have a plurality of dampers 3 in different states according to different temperature change requirements, for example, when one or more dampers 3 are opened or closed, another one or more dampers 3 are required to be kept in an open position or a closed position, referring to fig. 2, during the rotation of the guide tray 4, the guide shaft 32 is continuously slid in the guide slot 41, so that the guide slot 41 does not apply a force to the guide shaft 32 for a certain period of time during the rotation of the guide tray 4, and thus, when one or more dampers 3 are opened or closed, another one or more dampers 3 are required to be kept in an open position or a closed position. As shown in fig. 4, the guide groove 41 further includes a position maintaining section 413, and when the guide shaft 32 is located in the position maintaining section 413, the guide shaft 32 slides with respect to the position maintaining section 413 as the guide disc 4 rotates, and the position maintaining section 413 does not apply a rotational force to the guide shaft 32 to maintain the damper 3 at the current position.
Referring to fig. 4, the position holding end 413 may be an open position holding section or a closed position ensuring section, and the structure on the guide disc 4 is represented by an arc-shaped groove, that is, the position holding section 413 is an arc-shaped groove, and the center of the position holding section 413 is the rotation center of the guide disc 4. In this way, when the guide shaft 32 is located at the position holding section of the arc-shaped groove during the rotation of the guide plate 4, since the distance between each position of the arc-shaped groove and the rotation center of the guide plate 4 is not changed, the force is not applied to the guide shaft 32, and the damper 3 can be held at the current position.
Since the guide plate 4 is rotated, the guide grooves 41 are formed around the circumferential direction of the guide plate 4 so that the guide grooves 41 can be continuously engaged with the guide shaft 32, and thus, the plurality of guide grooves 41 are arranged in the radial direction of the guide plate 4 so that the plurality of guide grooves 41 do not interfere with each other, as shown in fig. 8. Meanwhile, when a plurality of guide grooves 41 are provided, in the process of rotation of the guide disc 4, the plurality of guide grooves 41 are respectively and simultaneously matched with the plurality of guide shafts 32, if the central angle of the guide disc 4 corresponding to a certain guide groove 41 is small, the rotatable angle of the guide disc 4 is small due to the matching of the guide groove 41 and the guide shafts 32, and further the matching of other guide grooves 41 and the guide shafts 32 is affected, so that other guide shafts 32 cannot slide to the maximum or minimum positions of the guide grooves 41, and further the corresponding air doors 3 cannot be completely opened or closed. Therefore, referring to fig. 8, the central angles of the guide disks 4 corresponding to the plurality of guide grooves 41 are the same. Wherein, the included angle between the connecting line of the two ends of the guide groove 41 and the rotation center of the guide disc 4 is the central angle of the guide disc 4 corresponding to the guide groove 41.
In order to control the plurality of dampers 3 in different position states and to change the temperature of each storage chamber in the refrigerator, the positions or the number of the opening guide section 411, the closing guide section 412 and the position guide section 413 of the guide groove 41 may be set as required. Taking the structure of the three air doors 3 as an example, an arrangement mode is preferred, which can realize that the three air doors 3 can be in different position states in the rotation process of the guide disc 4, specifically, as shown in fig. 9, the air duct side wall 12 is provided with a first air outlet 21, a second air outlet 22 and a third air outlet 23, the first air outlet 21 is provided with a first air door 33, the second air outlet 22 is provided with a second air door 34, the third air outlet 23 is provided with a third air door 35, the air duct bottom plate 11 is provided with a first arc groove 111a, a second arc groove 111b and a third arc groove 111c, as shown in fig. 8 and 10, the guide disc 4 is provided with a first guide groove 42, a second guide groove 43 and a third guide groove 44, the guide shaft 32 of the first air door 33 correspondingly passes through the first arc groove 111a and extends into the first guide groove 42, the guide shaft 32 of the second air door 34 correspondingly passes through the second arc groove 111b and extends into the second guide groove 43, the guide shaft 32 of the third damper 35 correspondingly passes through the third arc groove 111c and extends into the third guide groove 44. As shown in fig. 8, the first guide groove 42 includes a first opening guide section 421, a first opening position holding section 422, a first closing guide section 423, and a first closing position holding section 424 that are sequentially communicated in the first rotation direction of the guide tray 4, the second guide groove 43 includes a second initial position holding section 431, a second opening guide section 432, a second opening position holding section 433, a second closing guide section 434, and a second closing position holding section 435 that are sequentially communicated in the first rotation direction, and the third guide groove 44 includes a third initial position holding section 441, a third opening guide section 442, a third opening position holding section 443, and a third closing guide section 444 that are sequentially communicated in the first rotation direction.
