According to the embodiment of the utility model, an electric driving mechanism is not required to be configured for the adjustable air guide grille 30, the switching of the installation posture is manually carried out by a user, the air guide direction adjustment is finished in an extremely simple mode, and the product cost and price are reduced.

FIG. 3 is a schematic view of the structure of the adjustable air guide grille 30 in the air conditioner of FIG. 1; fig. 4 is an exploded view of the adjustable air guide grille 30 shown in fig. 3.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3, the adjustable air guide grid 30 may include an outer frame 31 and a plurality of grid bars 32, where each grid bar 32 is located inside the outer frame 31 and two ends are connected to the outer frame 31 for guiding air.

Further, each of the grill strips 32 may be rotatably mounted to the outer frame 31 to adjust the wind guiding direction thereof by being rotated to different angles. For example, in the case of fig. 1, when the user rotates each of the grille bars 32 downward to be horizontal, the grille bars 32 can guide air directly in front. When each of the grille strips 32 is simply rotated to a downwardly inclined position, the grille strips 32 can guide air forward and downward. The angles of the various grills 32 can also be varied to direct the air flow in multiple directions to create a dispersion or aggregation effect.

The specific rotation structure of the grating strips 32 is shown in fig. 4, and a plurality of mounting holes 311 may be formed on the edge of the outer frame 31, and mounting posts 321 extend from two ends of each grating strip 32, and each mounting post 321 is rotatably inserted into one of the mounting holes 311, so that the grating strips 32 can rotate around the mounting post 321.

In some embodiments, the outer contour of the outer frame 31 may be formed as a rotationally symmetrical pattern, so that the adjustable air guide grille 30 fits into the same area of the air outlet 12 in a plurality of mounting positions. That is, the outer frame 31 is rotated around a fixed point by an angle and then coincides with its initial posture. For example, the outer frame 31 has a regular polygon or a circle overall in outline. Regular polygons include regular triangles, squares, regular pentagons, regular hexagons, and the like. If the shape is regular polygon, the number of installation postures of the adjustable guide grid 30 is the same as the number of sides. If circular, the adjustable air guide grille 30 theoretically has numerous mounting attitudes.

Preferably, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, the outer contour of the outer frame 31 may be formed as a square overall, and both ends of each grid bar 32 are respectively connected to opposite sides of the outer frame 31. The structure is convenient to manufacture and has four installation postures at most, and the daily air quantity regulation requirement of a user can be well met.

In some embodiments, the outer frame 31 may be detachably embedded inside the air outlet 12. Specifically, the outer frame 31 may be clamped inside the air outlet 12 in a manner similar to an interference fit in the shaft hole connection. Alternatively, the outer frame 31 may be elastically fastened to the inside of the air outlet 12.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, for a floor air conditioner, an air outlet 12 thereof may be opened at a front side of an indoor unit casing 10 of the air conditioner. The adjustable air guide grille 30 has a first installation posture in which the respective grille bars 32 extend in the lateral direction of the indoor unit casing 10 so as to guide air upward or downward, as shown in fig. 1. And has a second installation posture in which each grill strip 32 extends in the vertical direction so as to guide wind laterally (i.e., left-right direction), as shown in fig. 2.

Further, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the floor air conditioner may further include a fixed air guide grille 20. The fixed air guide grating 20 is fixedly installed at the air outlet 12 and is located above the adjustable air guide grating 30 for guiding the air outlet direction of the air outlet 12. And, the respective grill strips 22 of the fixed air guide grill 20 are arranged in the up-down direction, and each grill strip 22 extends in the lateral direction of the indoor unit casing 10 and is rotatable about an axis parallel to the length direction thereof so as to adjust the up-down air outlet angle of the air outlet 12.

In the present utility model, for the embodiment of the floor air conditioner, it includes not only the adjustable air guide grille 30 but also the fixed air guide grille 20. The fixed air guide grid 20 is additionally arranged, so that when a user uses the vertical air conditioner, the included angle between the air flow and the horizontal plane is more concerned, and the up-down air outlet angle is more required to be adjusted, so that the air flow is blown upwards, horizontally or downwards, and the left and right air outlet angles are seldom adjusted. It is common practice for a user to stay in front of the air conditioner if he wants to be blown straight by the air conditioner, and to get away from the front of the air conditioner if he wants to avoid being blown straight by the air conditioner. That is, the position of the air outlet is usually adjusted, and the left and right angles of the air outlet can be adjusted by taking out the remote controller.

Therefore, the utility model particularly utilizes the fixed air guide grating 20 to adjust the upper and lower air outlet angles of the air outlet 12, thereby meeting the requirements of most of the use occasions of users, and the whole fixed air guide grating 20 is not required to be disassembled during adjustment. The adjustable air guide grating 30 is positioned below the fixed air guide grating 20 and is manually adjusted by a user, so that the adjustable air guide grating can guide air up and down or left and right, and the requirements of few situations of the user can be met. The utility model comprehensively considers the habit of the user, not only adds the posture adjustment design of the adjustable air guide grille 30, but also reserves the conventional fixed air guide grille 20, and simplifies the operation of the user to the greatest extent.

In the above embodiment, since the fixed air guide grille 20 is mainly used for conventional air guide, the outer contour of the fixed air guide grille 20 is made to be a vertical rectangle as a whole, and the outer contour of the adjustable air guide grille 30 is made to be a square as a whole. The width of the fixed air guide grating 20 is equal or approximately equal to that of the adjustable air guide grating 30, so that the air outlet area of the fixed air guide grating 20 is larger to fully meet daily requirements.

FIG. 5 is a schematic illustration of the air conditioner of FIG. 1 with the adjustable air conduction grille in a closed position; fig. 6 is a schematic view of the air conditioner of fig. 2 with the adjustable air conduction grating in a closed state.

As shown in fig. 5 and 6, when the air conditioner is in the off state, the grill strip 32 may be rotated to the closed state, and the grill strip 22 may be rotated to the closed state, so as to close the air outlet 12 by using the adjustable air guide grill 30 and the fixed air guide grill 20, thereby preventing dust from entering.
