Analysis from the rotation angle of the first and second links: realizing the first open position and the second open position, as shown in fig. 11 and 12, the motor needs to be rotated by 3 angles: α1, α2, α3.
In the α1 range: the deflector moves from the closed position to the extended position, the first constant radius segment engages the first precursor portion, and the second constant radius segment engages the second precursor portion. Because the air deflector is an outward turning guide plate, if the air deflector rotates directly, the air deflector can interfere with the air duct frame, so that the air deflector needs to extend a certain distance to rotate again, or rotate while extending, and the air deflector extends and rotates simultaneously by adjusting the transmission ratio m and n without interfering with the air duct frame; in the case, the same initial radius of the first gear and the second gear is designed, and at the moment, the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod respectively rotate along respective circle centers and simultaneously extend out along the horizontal direction to be close to each other, and the air deflector extends out and overturns without interference of the air duct frame;
In the α2 range: the first radius changing section is engaged with the first concave section and the second radius changing section is engaged with the first convex section. After the air deflector extends and rotates for a certain distance, the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod can perform larger differential motion, and at the moment, the first connecting rod extends slowly, and the second connecting rod extends quickly, so that the air deflector extends and turns to a first open position within an angle alpha 2, namely, the air deflector moves from the extended position to the first open position;
in the α3 range: the third constant radius segment engages the second protrusion and the fourth constant radius segment engages the second recess. The air deflector moves from the first open position to the second open position, and the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod also need to perform larger differential motion, and at the moment, the first connecting rod stretches out faster, and the second connecting rod stretches out slower, so that the first connecting rod stretches out and turns to the second open position within an angle alpha 3.
L11<L21,L12>L22 and L11 are similar to L12, and the difference between L21 and L22 is larger. For example, l12=1.1χl11; l21=1.5×l11; l22=0.5×l11, and the diameters of the first gear and the second gear are controlled to beIn the range of from +.>First reduce to +.>Then increase to +.>The straight warp of the second gear is +.>First increase to +.>Then reduce to +.>
The diameters of the first gear and the second gear are controlled to be The gear strength and stability are improved; controlled at->In the meantime, in order to reduce the space occupied by the driving mechanism, the larger the diameter is, the larger the transmission torque is required.
The motor drives the first gear and the second gear to rotate for 3 angles (alpha 1, alpha 2 and alpha 3), and corresponding transmission parameters are as follows:
