Description

[Detailed description of the invention] <Industrial application field> This invention relates to a fan that can be operated and operated by a wireless remote controller.

<Conventional technology> In recent years, even in the case of electric fans, the number of models that can be operated by a wireless remote controller has been increasing due to its convenience, and there are various storage methods when this remote control is not operated, but when storing it, It was considered to be housed in the decorative plate in the center of the front of the guard body because it had no strange feeling and good appearance.

<Problems to be solved by the present invention> By the way, in this storage in the decoration plate, when the remote control is stored and operated, the slight vibration by the drive of the electric motor is transmitted to the guard body, so the remote control stored in the decoration plate However, it vibrated slightly to generate chatter, which was a cause of noise.

<Means for solving the problems> This invention pays attention to this point, and in order to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks, in particular, its configuration, a remote control that enables driving operation from a place distant from the appliance body, when not operating In what is stored in the storage part formed in the decorative plate in the center of the guard body front,
The storage portion of the decorative plate is provided with elastic support means for constantly pressing the remote control toward the decorative plate when the remote control is stored.

<Operation> In the storage section 15 of the plaque 14, except when the remote control 11 is stored,
The cover body 18 and the spring
An elastic support means 20 comprising a remote control 19 is provided, so that the remote control 11 is stored in the housing 15 by pushing the remote control 11 together with the cover 18 into the housing 15 against the elastic force of the spring 19. The storage is completed by engaging the locking projections 21 with the locking recesses 23 on the outer wall of the remote controller 11.When the remote controller 11 is stored, the remote controller 11 is always pressed against the decorative plate 14 by the elastic support means 20 to engage the remote controller 11. Since the operation is performed in this state and the drive of the electric motor unit 7 is transmitted to the cover body 18, the remote control 11 in the decorative plate 14 does not vibrate slightly and generates chattering noise, which may cause noise. Therefore, it is possible to always use the remote controller 11 with a sense of security by improving the decorative body 14 which is extremely simple, and can realize the storage of the remote controller 11 which is not awkward and has a good appearance.

<Embodiment> Next, a fan according to the present invention will be described with reference to a preferred embodiment shown in the drawings.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a stand base on which a stand support 2 is integrally provided.
An infrared receiving section 4 is provided slightly protruding upward.

Reference numeral 5 denotes a sliding pipe provided on the stand support 2 so as to be slidable up and down. The sliding pipe 5 has an electric motor section 7 in which an electric motor and the like are housed inward via a neck piece 6.

Reference numeral 8 denotes three blades which are connected to the electric motor unit 7 via a support shaft 9 and rotate to blow air, and are surrounded by a guard body 10.

Reference numeral 11 denotes a disk-shaped wireless remote controller, which includes a transmitting unit 12 for transmitting infrared light toward the receiving unit 4 at an appropriate position, and switches for outputting commands such as a driving, a swing, and a timer. A remote controller 13 is provided.

14 is the remote controller provided in the center of the front of the guard body 10
It is a disc-shaped decorative plate larger than 11, and has a storage portion 15 formed of a recess for storing the remote controller 11 in the center.

Further, the storage portion 15 has a plurality of support legs 17 supported by support holes 16 provided in the rear wall, and a cover body 18 having a slightly smaller diameter than the storage portion 15. An elastic support means 20 comprising a spring 19 pressing forward so as to close the remote controller is provided. When the remote controller 11 is stored, the remote controller 11 is pressed by the elastic force of the elastic support means 20.

Reference numeral 21 denotes a locking projection which is formed to protrude inward at two places on the inner wall of the storage section 15 and locks the center of the side wall through the guide grooves 22 formed at the same two places on the outer wall of the remote controller 11 when the remote controller 11 is stored. By engaging with the concave portion 23, the remote controller 11 pressed by the elastic support means 20 is supported in the storage portion 15.

Reference numeral 24 denotes a light-transmitting hole formed in the lower part of the decorative plate 14 including the storage unit 15, and when the remote controller 11 is stored in the storage unit 15, the transmission unit 12 of the remote controller 11 is set to be completely stored at a lower position. The transmission to the receiving unit 4 is enabled through the light transmitting hole 24 so that the driving operation can be performed from the remote controller 11 in the housed state.

 Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described.

When the transmitter 12 of the remote controller 11 is directed to the receiver 4 on the stand base 1 and the switch of the desired remote controller 13 is pressed, the fan performs the desired operation.
The driving operation can be performed from a place remote from the fan main body, which is extremely convenient. Of course, a normal driving operation by the operation unit 3 on the stand base 1 is also possible.

When the remote control 11 is not necessary,
It is sufficient to store the remote controller 11 in the inside of the remote controller 15. There is no worry that the remote controller 11 will get in the way or be lost, and the circular remote controller 11 must be completely enclosed in the circular decorative plate 14 part. Therefore, the remote controller 11 does not protrude out of the device as in the related art, making it difficult to see, and it is possible to obtain a good aesthetic appearance without a sense of incongruity.

Further, the storage of the remote controller 11 is performed by pushing the remote controller 11 into the storage section 15 against the elastic force of the cover body 18 and the spring 19 of the elastic support means 20, and the locking projection 21 is inserted into the locking recess 23 through the guide groove 22. By rotating while inserted in the remote control,
11 is set and storage is completed.
11 is always pushed forward by the elastic support means 20 in the stored state, and the engagement between the locking projection 21 and the locking recess 23 becomes strong, so that even when the remote control 11 is stored in the storage portion 15, Even when driving is performed, there is no problem that the remote controller 11 generates a chattering sound due to slight vibration in the storage portion 15 and it can be used with peace of mind at all times, and the remote controller 11 is pressed against the surface by the cover body 18. Therefore, there is no fear that the pressing is uneven and the pressing surface is rubbed and the remote controller 11 is damaged.

Further, a cover body 18 and a spring 19 which are elastic support means 20 are provided.
This means that when the remote controller 11 is not housed, it is located in front of the housing part 15 and closes the housing part 15, so that when not housed, the center of the decorative plate 14 is not seen as a concave part, and the aesthetic appearance is good, and the dust is good. Is prevented, and the influence of dust on the remote controller 11 is also prevented.

<Effects of the Invention> In short, the present invention is to store the remote controller 11 which enables the driving operation from a place remote from the appliance body in the storage portion 15 formed on the decoration plate 14 at the front center of the guard body 10 when not operating. In the storage unit 15 of the decorative plate 14, a remote control
Since the remote control 11 is provided with the elastic support means 20 which constantly presses the remote control 11 toward the decorative plate 14 at the time of storage of the remote control 11, even if the remote control is stored in the storage portion and the fan is operated, Does not cause chattering noise due to micro-vibration and does not cause noise, and can always obtain a strong storage state. Therefore, it is possible to realize a good-looking remote control storage without a sense of incongruity. It is.
