Description

本発明は、自動車等の空調の空気吹出口に使用される空気吹出調整用のレジスタに関し、特に長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長の空気吹出口を有し、空気吹出口の内側に長手方向に沿って少数のフィンを設けた薄型レジスタに好適なレジスタに関する。   The present invention relates to an air outlet adjustment register used for an air outlet of an air conditioner such as an automobile, and in particular, has an elongated air outlet that is long in a longitudinal direction and short in a short direction, and is long inside an air outlet. The present invention relates to a register suitable for a thin register provided with a small number of fins along a direction.

この種の空気吹出調整用のレジスタとして、通風路を形成するベゼルまたはリテーナ内に、横可動ルーバと縦可動ルーバを前後して直交するように配設し、ベゼルに設けた空気吹出口から空気を吹き出す際、横可動ルーバ、縦可動ルーバの各フィンの角度を変えて空気の吹出し方向を調整するレジスタが、一般に、自動車の空調などで使用されている。   As a register for this type of air blowing adjustment, a laterally movable louver and a vertically movable louver are arranged so as to be orthogonal to each other in a bezel or retainer that forms a ventilation path, and air is supplied from an air outlet provided in the bezel. In general, a register that adjusts the air blowing direction by changing the angle of each fin of the laterally movable louver and the vertically movable louver is used for air conditioning of automobiles.

近年、自動車用の空調に使用されるレジスタでは、長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長の空気吹出口を有し、空気吹出口の内側に1〜3枚程度の少数の前可動フィンを設けた薄型レジスタが、主として意匠性やデザイン的なデマンドから製作される場合がある。このような薄型レジスタは、例えば下記特許文献1などで知られている。   2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, a register used for air conditioning for automobiles has an elongated air outlet that is long in the longitudinal direction and short in the lateral direction, and a small number of front movable fins of about 1 to 3 are provided inside the air outlet. In some cases, a thin register is manufactured mainly from a design or design demand. Such a thin register is known, for example, from Patent Document 1 below.

特開2002−103954号公報JP 2002-103954 A

細長の空気吹出口を有する薄型レジスタは、長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長の空気吹出口の内側に、枚数が1〜3枚程度の前可動フィンが長手方向に沿って配置され、前可動フィンの上流側に後可動フィンが前可動フィンと直交する短手方向に配置される。しかし、薄型レジスタはその空気吹出口が長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長形状であるが故に、通風路から空気吹出口に向けて送風される空気流が短手方向に圧縮されて縮流が発生しやすく、特に、その縮流によって、後可動フィンを長手方向に振った際の風の指向性が悪化しやすいという現象が生じていた。   A thin register having an elongated air outlet has a front movable fin of about 1 to 3 sheets disposed along the longitudinal direction inside the elongated air outlet that is long in the longitudinal direction and short in the lateral direction. The rear movable fin is disposed in the short direction perpendicular to the front movable fin on the upstream side of the movable fin. However, the thin resistor has a long and narrow air outlet, and the air flow blown from the ventilation path toward the air outlet is compressed in the short direction. In particular, the phenomenon that the directivity of the wind when the rear movable fin is shaken in the longitudinal direction is likely to be deteriorated due to the contracted flow.

すなわち、従来の薄型レジスタは、通常、図11に示すように、レジスタのケース本体70内に形成された通風路71の前部に長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長で長方形状の空気吹出口72が設けられ、空気吹出口72の内側に、枚数の少ない例えば3枚の前可動フィン73が長手方向に沿って配置され、その前可動フィン73の上流側に、枚数の多い後可動フィン74が前可動フィン73と直交する方向に配置された構造となっている。   In other words, a conventional thin register is generally a long and short rectangular air blow at the front part of a ventilation path 71 formed in the case body 70 of the register, as shown in FIG. An outlet 72 is provided, and for example, three front movable fins 73 with a small number of sheets are arranged along the longitudinal direction inside the air outlet 72, and a rear movable fin with a large number of sheets is disposed upstream of the front movable fin 73. 74 has a structure arranged in a direction orthogonal to the front movable fin 73.

しかし、このような薄型レジスタは、図11の如く、空気吹出口72が長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長形状であるが故に、通風路71から空気吹出口72に向けて送風される空気流が短手方向に圧縮されて縮流が発生しやすく、特に、後可動フィン74を左右につまり長手方向に振ったとき、後可動フィン74と前可動フィン73間の近傍で、空気流の縮流つまり上下短手方向に圧縮された空気の流れが発生しやすい。   However, as shown in FIG. 11, such a thin register has an elongated shape in which the air outlet 72 is long in the longitudinal direction and short in the short direction, and therefore air blown from the ventilation path 71 toward the air outlet 72. The flow is compressed in the short direction and the contraction flow is likely to occur. In particular, when the rear movable fin 74 is swung left and right, that is, in the longitudinal direction, the air flow is generated in the vicinity between the rear movable fin 74 and the front movable fin 73. A contracted flow, that is, a flow of air compressed in the vertical direction is likely to occur.

このため、前可動フィン73を上下に振った状態で、後可動フィン74を左右につまり長手方向に振ったとき、空気流の方向が縮流によって戻されることにより、風が曲がりにくく、後可動フィン74の向きを変えたときの風の指向性が悪化しやすいという課題があった。   For this reason, when the front movable fin 73 is swung up and down and the rear movable fin 74 is swung left and right, that is, in the longitudinal direction, the direction of the air flow is returned by the contracted flow, so that the wind is difficult to bend and the rear movable fin 74 There existed a subject that the directivity of the wind when changing the direction of the fin 74 was easy to deteriorate.

本発明は、上記の点に鑑みてなされたもので、長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長の空気吹出口を有し、空気吹出口の内側に可動ルーバを設けた薄型レジスタであっても、風の指向性を向上させることができるレジスタを提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and is a thin register having an elongated air outlet that is long in the longitudinal direction and short in the lateral direction, and a movable louver is provided inside the air outlet. An object of the present invention is to provide a register capable of improving the directivity of wind.

本発明者は、上記構造のレジスタについて鋭意開発研究を行なった結果、下流側の可動ルーバを回動させたときに生じる風の変流は、空気流の縮流と偏向から構成され、下流側の縮流が大きいと、上流側の可動ルーバを回動させて風を変流させたとき、その変流が戻される現象が生じ、上流側の可動ルーバによる風向の指向性が低下しやすいことを知見し、下記の発明に至った。   As a result of earnest development research on the register having the above structure, the present inventor has a wind current flow generated by rotating a movable louver on the downstream side, which is composed of contraction and deflection of the air flow. If the flow of the louver is large, when the upstream movable louver is rotated to transform the wind, the phenomenon of returning the current flow occurs, and the directivity of the wind direction by the upstream movable louver is likely to decrease. As a result, the inventors have reached the following invention.

すなわち、本発明に係るレジスタは、長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長の空気吹出口を有し、該空気吹出口の内側の通風路内に該短手方向に風向を変える前可動ルーバが配設され、該前可動ルーバの上流側に該長手方向に風向を変える後可動ルーバが配設されたレジスタにおいて、
該後可動ルーバの上流側に奥可動ルーバが該短手方向に風向を変えるために配設され、
該奥可動ルーバは、該通風路内の両内側面に沿って、第1奥フィン及び第2奥フィンが長手方向と平行な支軸を介して回動可能に軸支され、
短手方向に風向を変える場合、該第1奥フィンまたは該第2奥フィンの何れか一方を短手方向に回動させる一方、他方の該第2奥フィンまたは該第1奥フィンを該通風路と平行に保持し、且つ該奥可動ルーバが振られる短手方向と逆の方向に前記前可動ルーバを回動して、風向を短手方向に変えることを特徴とする。
That is, the register according to the present invention has an elongated air outlet that is long in the longitudinal direction and short in the lateral direction, and a movable louver before the air direction is changed in the lateral direction in the ventilation path inside the air outlet. In a register in which a movable louver is disposed on the upstream side of the front movable louver and the rear movable louver is disposed in the longitudinal direction.
A rear movable louver is arranged on the upstream side of the rear movable louver to change the wind direction in the short direction,
The inner movable louver is pivotally supported so that the first inner fin and the second inner fin are rotatable through a supporting shaft parallel to the longitudinal direction along both inner side surfaces in the ventilation path.
When changing the wind direction in the short direction, either the first back fin or the second back fin is rotated in the short direction, while the other second back fin or the first back fin is moved to the ventilation. The front movable louver is rotated in the direction opposite to the short direction in which the inner movable louver is swung while being held parallel to the road, and the wind direction is changed to the short direction.

この発明によれば、例えば、前可動ルーバを短手方向の斜め下方に向けた場合、奥可動ルーバはその逆の斜め上方を向くため、通風路を流れる空気流は、先ず奥可動ルーバにより短手方向の斜め上方に曲げられて縮流され、縮流された状態で後可動ルーバを通り、そこで後可動ルーバの向きに応じて長手方向に風向を変え、その状態で、空気流は次に前可動ルーバを通り短手方向の斜め下方に偏向されて曲げられ、空気吹出口から送風される。   According to the present invention, for example, when the front movable louver is directed obliquely downward in the short direction, the rear movable louver is directed obliquely upward in the opposite direction, so that the air flow flowing through the ventilation path is first shortened by the rear movable louver. It is bent obliquely upward in the hand direction and is compressed, and passes through the rear movable louver in a compressed state, and changes the wind direction in the longitudinal direction according to the direction of the rear movable louver, and in that state, the air flow is next It passes through the front movable louver, is deflected and bent obliquely downward in the short direction, and is blown from the air outlet.

このため、短手方向(例えば上下)に風向を変える変流部は、奥可動ルーバの部分が縮流部となり、前可動ルーバの部分が偏向部となって、風向を短手方向の斜め下方に曲げる際の変流動作が、奥可動ルーバによる縮流と前可動ルーバによる偏向に分割されることとなる。   For this reason, in the current transformation part that changes the wind direction in the short direction (for example, up and down), the part of the back movable louver becomes the contraction part and the part of the front movable louver becomes the deflection part, and the wind direction is obliquely below in the short direction. The current changing operation at the time of bending is divided into the contracted flow by the back movable louver and the deflection by the front movable louver.

このために、空気流が後可動ルーバから前可動ルーバを通過する際、縮流(圧縮された空気の流れ)が減少し、それにより、後可動ルーバを回動して風向を長手方向に変える際、風向が縮流により戻される現象が低減される。このため、長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長の空気吹出口を有した薄型のレジスタであっても、前可動ルーバの向きを短手方向に振った状態で、後可動ルーバの向きを長手方向に振ったとき、縮流により風が戻されることがなく、後可動ルーバの向きに応じて風向を良好に変え、風の指向性を向上させることができる。   For this reason, when the air flow passes from the rear movable louver to the front movable louver, the contracted flow (compressed air flow) is reduced, thereby rotating the rear movable louver and changing the wind direction in the longitudinal direction. In this case, the phenomenon that the wind direction is returned by the contracted flow is reduced. For this reason, even in the case of a thin register having an elongated air outlet that is long in the longitudinal direction and short in the lateral direction, the direction of the rear movable louver is elongated in the state where the direction of the front movable louver is shaken in the lateral direction. When swung in the direction, the wind is not returned by the contracted flow, and the direction of the wind can be changed favorably according to the direction of the rear movable louver to improve the directivity of the wind.

ここで、上記レジスタにおいて、通風路内の両内側面には内側凹部が形成され、上記第1奥フィン及び第2奥フィンが該内側凹部に収納可能に配設される構成とすることができる。これによれば、第1奥フィンまたは第2奥フィンが空気流の縮流動作を行なわない場合、内側凹部に第1奥フィンまたは第2奥フィンを収納させ、これにより送風時の圧力損失を低減することができる。   Here, in the register, inner concave portions are formed on both inner side surfaces in the ventilation path, and the first inner fin and the second inner fin can be disposed so as to be housed in the inner concave portion. . According to this, when the first back fin or the second back fin does not perform the contraction operation of the air flow, the first back fin or the second back fin is stored in the inner concave portion, thereby reducing the pressure loss during blowing. Can be reduced.

また、別のレジスタは、長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長の空気吹出口を有し、該空気吹出口の内側の通風路内に該短手方向に風向を変える前可動ルーバが配設され、該前可動ルーバの上流側に該長手方向に風向を変える後可動ルーバが配設されたレジスタにおいて、
該後可動ルーバの上流側に奥可動ルーバが該短手方向に風向を変えるために配設され、
該奥可動ルーバは、該通風路内に1枚の奥フィンが長手方向と平行な支軸を介して回動可能に軸支され、
風向を短手方向に変える場合、該1枚の奥フィンを短手方向に回動させ、且つ該奥可動ルーバが振られる短手方向と逆の方向に前記前可動ルーバを回動して、風向を短手方向に変えることを特徴とする。
Another register has an elongated air outlet that is long in the longitudinal direction and short in the lateral direction, and a pre-movable louver is disposed in the ventilation path inside the air outlet before changing the air direction in the lateral direction. In a register in which a rear movable louver is arranged on the upstream side of the front movable louver to change the wind direction in the longitudinal direction,
A rear movable louver is arranged on the upstream side of the rear movable louver to change the wind direction in the short direction,
The inner movable louver is pivotally supported in the ventilation path so that one inner fin is rotatable through a supporting shaft parallel to the longitudinal direction,
When the wind direction is changed to the short direction, the one back fin is rotated in the short direction, and the front movable louver is rotated in a direction opposite to the short direction in which the deep movable louver is swung, It is characterized by changing the wind direction to the short direction.

この発明のレジスタによれば、上記と同様、短手方向(例えば上下)に風向を変える変流部は、奥可動ルーバの部分が縮流部となり、前可動ルーバの部分が偏向部となって、風向を短手方向の斜め下方に曲げる際の変流動作が、奥可動ルーバによる縮流と前可動ルーバによる偏向に分割されることとなる。   According to the register of the present invention, in the same manner as described above, in the current changing portion that changes the wind direction in the short direction (for example, up and down), the back movable louver portion becomes the contracted portion, and the front movable louver portion becomes the deflecting portion. The current changing operation when the wind direction is bent obliquely downward in the short direction is divided into the contracted flow by the back movable louver and the deflection by the front movable louver.

このために、上記と同様、空気流が後可動ルーバから前可動ルーバを通過する際、縮流(圧縮された空気の流れ)が減少し、それにより、後可動ルーバを回動して風向を長手方向に変える際、風向が縮流により戻される現象が低減される。このため、長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長の空気吹出口を有した薄型のレジスタであっても、前可動ルーバの向きを短手方向に振った状態で、後可動ルーバの向きを長手方向に振ったとき、縮流により風が戻されることがなく、後可動ルーバの向きに応じて風向を良好に変え、風の指向性を向上させることができる。   For this reason, as described above, when the air flow passes from the rear movable louver to the front movable louver, the contracted flow (compressed air flow) is reduced, thereby rotating the rear movable louver to change the wind direction. When changing in the longitudinal direction, the phenomenon that the wind direction is returned by the contracted flow is reduced. For this reason, even in the case of a thin register having an elongated air outlet that is long in the longitudinal direction and short in the lateral direction, the direction of the rear movable louver is elongated in the state where the direction of the front movable louver is shaken in the lateral direction. When swung in the direction, the wind is not returned by the contracted flow, and the direction of the wind can be changed favorably according to the direction of the rear movable louver to improve the directivity of the wind.

ここで、上記前可動ルーバは、2枚または3枚の前フィンが長手方向と平行な支軸を介して回動可能に軸支され、全ての前フィンが同じ方向を向くように連動して回動し、風向を短手方向に変えるように構成することができる。   Here, the front movable louver is supported so that two or three front fins are pivotally supported via a support shaft parallel to the longitudinal direction, and all front fins are directed in the same direction. It can be configured to rotate and change the wind direction to the short direction.

さらに、本発明の別のレジスタは、長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長の空気吹出口を有し、該空気吹出口近傍の長手方向に沿った通風路内の両内側面に、上流側に傾斜面を有する山形凸条が長手方向に沿って形成され、該山形凸条の傾斜面の方向は該通風路の上流側に向け、該通風路の空気流を空気吹出口の中央寄りに曲げて吹出すように形成され、該山形凸条の上流側に後可動ルーバが該長手方向に風向を変えるように配設されたレジスタにおいて、
該後可動ルーバの上流側の該通風路内に、該短手方向に風向を変える1枚の奥フィンを有する奥可動ルーバが長手方向に沿った支軸を介して回動可能に軸支され、該奥フィンの回動によって縮流された空気流を、該山形凸条によって該奥フィンによる短手方向の曲げと逆の方向に曲げて、風向を短手方向に変えることを特徴とする。
Further, another register of the present invention has an elongated air outlet that is long in the longitudinal direction and short in the lateral direction, and is provided on both inner side surfaces in the ventilation path along the longitudinal direction in the vicinity of the air outlet on the upstream side. An angled ridge is formed along the longitudinal direction, and the direction of the angled surface of the angled ridge is directed upstream of the ventilation path, and the air flow in the ventilation path is closer to the center of the air outlet. In a register formed so as to be bent and blown, and a rear movable louver disposed on the upstream side of the chevron ridge to change the wind direction in the longitudinal direction,
A back movable louver having one back fin that changes the wind direction in the short direction is pivotally supported in the ventilation path on the upstream side of the rear movable louver via a support shaft along the longitudinal direction. The air flow which is contracted by the rotation of the back fin is bent in the opposite direction to the short direction bending by the back fin by the chevron ridge to change the wind direction to the short direction. .

この発明によれば、1枚の奥フィンのみの回動により、風向を短手方向に変えることができ、例えば、奥フィンを短手方向の斜め上方に向けた場合、通風路を流れる空気流は、先ず奥フィンにより短手方向の斜め上方に曲げられて縮流され、縮流された状態で可動ルーバを通り、そこで可動ルーバの向きに応じて長手方向に風向を変え、その状態で、空気流は次に山形凸条を通り短手方向の斜め下方に偏向されて曲げられ、空気吹出口から送風される。   According to this invention, the wind direction can be changed to the short direction by turning only one back fin. For example, when the back fin is directed obliquely upward in the short direction, the airflow flowing through the ventilation path First, it is bent obliquely upward in the short direction by the back fin, and then flows through the movable louver in a contracted state, where the wind direction is changed in the longitudinal direction according to the direction of the movable louver, and in this state, The air flow is then deflected and bent obliquely downward in the short direction through the chevron ridges and blown from the air outlet.

このため、短手方向(例えば上下)に風向を変える変流部は、奥フィンの箇所が縮流部となり、山形凸条の部分が偏向部となって、風向を短手方向(例えば斜め下方)に曲げる際の変流動作が、奥フィンによる縮流と山形凸条による偏向に分割されることとなる。   For this reason, the current transformation part which changes a wind direction to a short direction (for example, up and down), the location of a back fin turns into a contraction part, and the part of a mountain-shaped protruding item | line becomes a deflection part, and a wind direction is made into a short direction (for example, diagonally downward) ) Will be divided into the contracted flow by the back fin and the deflection by the chevron.

このために、空気流が可動ルーバから山形凸条を通過する際、縮流(圧縮された空気の流れ)が減少し、それにより、後可動ルーバを回動して風向を長手方向に変える際、風向が縮流により戻される現象が低減される。このため、長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長の空気吹出口を有した薄型のレジスタであっても、奥フィンを短手方向に振った状態で、後可動ルーバの向きを長手方向に振ったとき、縮流により風が戻されることがなく、後可動ルーバの向きに応じて風向を良好に変え、風の指向性を向上させることができる。   For this reason, when the air flow passes through the ridges from the movable louver, the contracted flow (compressed air flow) is reduced, thereby turning the rear movable louver to change the wind direction to the longitudinal direction. The phenomenon that the wind direction is returned by the contracted flow is reduced. For this reason, even in the case of a thin register having an elongated air outlet that is long in the longitudinal direction and short in the lateral direction, the direction of the rear movable louver is shaken in the longitudinal direction while the back fin is shaken in the lateral direction. Then, the wind is not returned by the contracted flow, and the direction of the wind can be favorably changed according to the direction of the rear movable louver to improve the directionality of the wind.

ここで、上記山形凸条は、空気吹出口近傍の内側面の対向した両側に、空気吹出口の長手方向に同一横断面を持って連続して形成し、さらに、山形凸条の下流側の面を、前方に向けて広がるように開口した形状に形成することができる。これによれば、奥フィンを短手方向に振った状態で、後可動ルーバのフィンの向きを変えたときの風の指向性を向上させることができる。   Here, the above-mentioned chevron ridges are continuously formed on the opposite sides of the inner surface in the vicinity of the air outlet with the same cross section in the longitudinal direction of the air outlet, and further, on the downstream side of the chevron The surface can be formed in an open shape so as to spread forward. According to this, it is possible to improve the directivity of the wind when the direction of the fins of the rear movable louver is changed while the back fin is shaken in the short direction.

本発明のレジスタによれば、前可動ルーバまたは奥可動ルーバの向きを短手方向に振った状態で、後可動ルーバの向きを長手方向に振ったとき、縮流により風が戻されることがなく、後可動ルーバの向きに応じて風向を良好に変え、風の指向性を向上させることができる。   According to the register of the present invention, when the direction of the front movable louver or the back movable louver is shaken in the short direction and the direction of the rear movable louver is shaken in the longitudinal direction, the wind is not returned by the contracted flow. The wind direction can be changed favorably according to the direction of the rear movable louver, and the directivity of the wind can be improved.

以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面に基づいて説明する。図1〜図5は第1実施形態のレジスタを示している。レジスタのケース本体1は、薄型の箱状に形成され、その内部には、横断面を薄型の長方形状とした通風路3が形成される。通風路3の末端開口部に空気の導入口が形成され、前面には通風路3を通る空気を吹出すために、横に細長い形状の空気吹出口2が形成され、薄型レジスタを構成している。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 to 5 show the register of the first embodiment. The case body 1 of the register is formed in a thin box shape, and an air passage 3 having a thin rectangular cross section is formed therein. An air inlet is formed at the end opening of the air passage 3, and an air outlet 2 having an elongated shape is formed on the front surface to blow out air passing through the air passage 3. Yes.

つまり、空気吹出口2は、図1、2に示すように、偏平で細長いスリット状に形成され、長手方向(左右方向)に長く短手方向(上下方向)に短い横長の長方形に形成されている。ケース本体1の空気吹出口2の直ぐ内側に、3枚の横フィン41,42,43からなる前可動ルーバ4が回動可能に配設される。   That is, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the air outlet 2 is formed in a flat and elongated slit shape, and is formed in a horizontally long rectangle that is long in the longitudinal direction (left and right direction) and short in the lateral direction (vertical direction). Yes. A front movable louver 4 composed of three lateral fins 41, 42, 43 is rotatably disposed just inside the air outlet 2 of the case body 1.

前可動ルーバ4は、3枚の横フィン41,42,43を空気吹出口2の長手方向に沿って、上下に所定の間隔をあけて配置し、各横フィン41,42,43の両側から突出した水平方向の支軸41a,42a,43aを、ケース本体1の両側壁に、回動可能に軸支して構成される。前可動ルーバ4の各横フィン41,42,43は、回動機構46により、図2の状態から図4,5の風向を上下に変える状態まで、同期・連動して回動し、後述の奥可動ルーバ6と協働して上下短手方向に風向を変えるようになっている。   The front movable louver 4 has three horizontal fins 41, 42, 43 arranged at predetermined intervals in the vertical direction along the longitudinal direction of the air outlet 2, and from both sides of each horizontal fin 41, 42, 43. The protruding horizontal support shafts 41a, 42a, 43a are rotatably supported on both side walls of the case body 1. The horizontal fins 41, 42, 43 of the front movable louver 4 are rotated synchronously and interlocked from the state shown in FIG. 2 to the state where the wind direction shown in FIGS. In cooperation with the back movable louver 6, the wind direction is changed in the vertical direction.

また、図2に示すように、ケース本体1内前部の上壁部及び下壁部には、各々、内側凹部44,45が形成され、上の内側凹部44には上側の横フィン41が収納可能に配置され、下の内側凹部45には下側の横フィン43が収納可能に配置され、風向を下方に振る場合には、図4のように上の横フィン41を内側凹部44より内側に出して斜め下方に向け、風向を上方に振る場合には、図5のように下の横フィン43を内側凹部45より内側に出して斜め上方に向けるように構成される。   Further, as shown in FIG. 2, inner concave portions 44 and 45 are respectively formed in the upper wall portion and the lower wall portion in the front portion of the case body 1, and the upper lateral fin 41 is formed in the upper inner concave portion 44. The lower lateral fins 43 are disposed so as to be retractable, and the lower lateral fins 43 are disposed so as to be retractable. When the wind direction is swung downward, the upper lateral fins 41 are moved from the inner recesses 44 as shown in FIG. In the case where the air is directed inward and obliquely downward and the wind direction is swung upward, the lower horizontal fin 43 is configured to protrude inward from the inner concave portion 45 and obliquely upward as shown in FIG.

空気吹出口2の前方に真直ぐ送風を行なう場合、図2のように、上下の横フィン41,43は内側凹部44,45に収納された状態となり、正面送風時の圧力損失を最小としている。前可動ルーバ4の中間位置の横フィン42は、空気吹出口2の中央長手方向に配設され、上下の横フィン41,43と同期・連動して同じ方向に回動する。   When air is blown straight in front of the air outlet 2, the upper and lower horizontal fins 41 and 43 are housed in the inner recesses 44 and 45 as shown in FIG. 2, minimizing pressure loss during front air blowing. The horizontal fin 42 at the intermediate position of the front movable louver 4 is disposed in the central longitudinal direction of the air outlet 2 and rotates in the same direction in synchronization with and interlocking with the upper and lower horizontal fins 41 and 43.

前可動ルーバ4の回動機構46は、手動操作によるリンク機構、歯車機構、或いはモータ駆動機構により構成され、空気吹出口2の前方に真直ぐ送風を行なうとき、中央の横フィン42を水平とし、且つ上下の横フィン41,43を内側凹部44,45に収納された状態とし、風向を下方に向けるとき、図4のように中央の横フィン42を下方に振り、上の横フィン41を内側凹部44より内側に出して斜め下方に向け、風向を上方に向けるときには、図5のように中央の横フィン42を上方に振り、下の横フィン43を内側凹部45より内側に出して斜め上方に向けるように構成される。   The rotating mechanism 46 of the front movable louver 4 is configured by a manually operated link mechanism, a gear mechanism, or a motor drive mechanism. When air is blown straight ahead of the air outlet 2, the central lateral fin 42 is horizontal, When the upper and lower horizontal fins 41 and 43 are housed in the inner recesses 44 and 45 and the wind direction is directed downward, the central horizontal fin 42 is swung downward as shown in FIG. When the air is directed inward from the recess 44 and directed obliquely downward, and the wind direction is directed upward, the central lateral fin 42 is swung upward as shown in FIG. 5, and the lower lateral fin 43 is ejected inward from the inner recess 45 and obliquely upward. Configured to point to.

前可動ルーバ4の上流側の通風路3内、つまり前可動ルーバ4の直ぐ上流側に、後可動ルーバ5が風向を空気吹出口2の長手方向つまり左右方向に風向を変えるために配設される。後可動ルーバ5は、図2,3に示すように、多数の縦フィン51を長手方向に間隔をおいて並設してなり、多数の縦フィン51は、上下に突設した支軸51aを、通風路3の上側壁と下側壁に設けた軸孔に嵌合し、回動可能に軸支される。   A rear movable louver 5 is disposed in the ventilation path 3 upstream of the front movable louver 4, that is, immediately upstream of the front movable louver 4 in order to change the wind direction in the longitudinal direction of the air outlet 2, that is, in the left-right direction. The As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the rear movable louver 5 includes a large number of vertical fins 51 arranged in parallel in the longitudinal direction at intervals, and the large number of vertical fins 51 have support shafts 51a that protrude vertically. The air passage 3 is fitted into shaft holes provided in the upper and lower side walls of the ventilation path 3 and is pivotally supported.

多数の縦フィン51は、同期・連動して回動するように、下側の支軸51aに、クランク51bが取り付けられ、クランク51bの偏位した連結軸51cにはリンクバー51dが連結される。後可動ルーバ5は、回動機構56により、何れかの支軸51aが所定の角度範囲内で回転駆動され、これにより、多数の縦フィン51が同期・連動して同じ方向に回動し、風向を長手方向つまり左右方向に変える構造である。後可動ルーバ5の回動機構56としては、操作ノブの操作或いはモータ駆動によるカム或いはクランクの回動により、縦フィン51の支軸51aを回動させる構造とすることができ、操作ノブの回動操作などによって、多数の縦フィン51の向きが左右に振られ、空気吹出口2の長手方向への風向が変えられるように構成される。   A large number of vertical fins 51 have a crank 51b attached to a lower support shaft 51a so that they rotate in synchronization with each other, and a link bar 51d is connected to a connecting shaft 51c displaced from the crank 51b. . In the rear movable louver 5, one of the support shafts 51 a is rotationally driven within a predetermined angle range by the rotation mechanism 56, and thereby, the many vertical fins 51 are rotated in the same direction in synchronization and interlocking with each other. This structure changes the wind direction in the longitudinal direction, that is, in the left-right direction. The rotation mechanism 56 of the rear movable louver 5 can be structured to rotate the support shaft 51a of the vertical fin 51 by operating the operation knob or rotating a cam or crank driven by a motor. The direction of the many vertical fins 51 is swung to the left and right by a moving operation or the like, and the air direction in the longitudinal direction of the air outlet 2 is changed.

さらに、後可動ルーバ5の直ぐ上流側の通風路3内に、第1奥フィン61と第2奥フィンからなる奥可動ルーバ6が、前可動ルーバ4と協働して上下短手方向に風向を変えるように配設される。   Further, in the ventilation path 3 immediately upstream of the rear movable louver 5, the inner movable louver 6 composed of the first inner fin 61 and the second inner fin cooperates with the front movable louver 4 in the vertical direction. Is arranged to change.

一般に、前可動ルーバと後可動ルーバを直交方向に配設してなるレジスタにおいては、下流側の前可動ルーバを回動させたときに生じる風の変流は、空気流の縮流と偏向から構成され、前可動ルーバの縮流が大きいと、後可動ルーバを回動して風向を変流させても、その変流が縮流によって戻される現象が生じ、後可動ルーバによる風向の指向性が低下しやすい。   In general, in a register in which a front movable louver and a rear movable louver are arranged in an orthogonal direction, the flow of wind generated when the downstream front movable louver is rotated is caused by the contraction and deflection of the air flow. If the front movable louver is configured with a large contraction flow, even if the rear movable louver is turned to change the wind direction, the phenomenon that the current flow is returned by the contraction occurs, and the directionality of the wind direction by the rear movable louver occurs. Is prone to decline.

そこで、本レジスタでは、後可動ルーバ5の上流側に配置した奥可動ルーバ6により、空気流を短手方向の上下に圧縮する縮流部をつくり、この奥可動ルーバ6で空気流を上方または下方向に縮流した後、前可動ルーバ4で下方または上方に偏向させることにより、上下の変流を奥可動ルーバ6による縮流と前可動ルーバ4による偏向とに分割する。これにより、後可動ルーバ5と前可動ルーバ4との間で変流が戻される現象を抑制し、後可動ルーバ5を回動して左右方向の風向調整したときの、指向性を改善するようにしている。   Therefore, in the present register, the rear movable louver 6 disposed on the upstream side of the rear movable louver 5 creates a contracted portion that compresses the airflow in the vertical direction, and the rear movable louver 6 moves the airflow upward or downward. After contracting downward, the front movable louver 4 deflects downward or upward to divide the up-and-down current transformation into contracted current by the rear movable louver 6 and deflection by the front movable louver 4. As a result, the phenomenon that the current transformation is returned between the rear movable louver 5 and the front movable louver 4 is suppressed, and the directivity when the rear movable louver 5 is rotated and the wind direction in the left-right direction is adjusted is improved. I have to.

奥可動ルーバ6は、第1奥フィン61と第2奥フィン62を、空気吹出口2の長手方向に沿って、通風路3内の上部と下部に配置し、第1奥フィン61,第2奥フィン62の両側部に突設した水平方向の支軸61a,62aを、ケース本体1の両側壁に、回動可能に軸支して構成される。また、奥可動ルーバ6の第1奥フィン61と第2奥フィン62は、水平状態において、通風路3内の上壁部及び下壁部に設けた内側凹部63,64内に各々収納されるように配設される。これにより、第1奥フィン61または第2奥フィン62が空気流の縮流動作を行なわない場合、第1奥フィン61を内側凹部63内に、第2奥フィン62を内側凹部64内に収納させることができ、これにより送風時の圧力損失を低減するようになっている。   The back movable louver 6 has a first back fin 61 and a second back fin 62 arranged along the longitudinal direction of the air outlet 2 at the upper and lower portions in the ventilation path 3. Horizontal support shafts 61 a and 62 a projecting from both sides of the back fin 62 are rotatably supported on both side walls of the case body 1. Moreover, the 1st back fin 61 and the 2nd back fin 62 of the back movable louver 6 are each accommodated in the inner side recessed parts 63 and 64 provided in the upper wall part and lower wall part in the ventilation path 3 in a horizontal state. It is arranged as follows. Accordingly, when the first back fin 61 or the second back fin 62 does not perform the air flow contracting operation, the first back fin 61 is stored in the inner recess 63 and the second back fin 62 is stored in the inner recess 64. Thereby, the pressure loss at the time of ventilation is reduced.

このような奥可動ルーバ6は、前可動ルーバ4が、例えば図4のように斜め下向きに回動し風向を下向きにしたとき、その動作に連動して、第2奥フィン62が斜め上向きに回動し、逆に前可動ルーバ4が図5のように斜め上向きに回動し風向を上向きにしたとき、その動作に連動して、第1奥フィン61が斜め下向きに回動するようになっている。   In such a back movable louver 6, when the front movable louver 4 is rotated obliquely downward and the wind direction is downward as shown in FIG. 4, for example, the second back fin 62 is inclined upward in conjunction with the operation. When the front movable louver 4 is rotated obliquely upward as shown in FIG. 5 and the wind direction is upward as shown in FIG. 5, the first back fin 61 is rotated obliquely downward in conjunction with the operation. It has become.

またこのために、奥可動ルーバ6の第1奥フィン61と第2奥フィン62の支軸61a、62aは、操作ノブ或いはモータ駆動の回動機構66により回動する構造をとなっており、回動機構66は、真直ぐ正面方向に送風する場合、図2のように第1奥フィン61と第2奥フィン62を水平状態に保持して内側凹部63,64内に収納する状態とし、前可動ルーバ4を回動して、風向を上方に振ったとき、図5のように、第1奥フィン61を下方に向け、前可動ルーバ4を回動して、風向を下方に振ったとき、図4のように、第2奥フィン62を上方に向けるように構成される。このように、奥可動ルーバ6は、前可動ルーバ4の回動と連動して、第1奥フィン61または第2奥フィン62を回動させ、前可動ルーバ4と協働して上下短手方向に風向を変えるようになっている。   For this purpose, the support shafts 61a and 62a of the first back fin 61 and the second back fin 62 of the back movable louver 6 are structured to be rotated by an operation knob or a motor-driven rotation mechanism 66. When the air is blown straight in the front direction, the rotation mechanism 66 keeps the first back fin 61 and the second back fin 62 in a horizontal state and accommodates them in the inner recesses 63 and 64 as shown in FIG. When the movable louver 4 is rotated and the wind direction is swung upward, as shown in FIG. 5, the first back fin 61 is directed downward and the front movable louver 4 is rotated and the wind direction is swung downward. 4, the second back fin 62 is configured to face upward. As described above, the back movable louver 6 rotates the first back fin 61 or the second back fin 62 in conjunction with the rotation of the front movable louver 4, and cooperates with the front movable louver 4 to move up and down. The direction of the wind is changed in the direction.

すなわち、風向を下に向ける場合、図4のように奥可動ルーバ6は、第2奥フィン62の先端部を、斜め上方に向けるように、その末端部の支軸62aを中心に、図4の時計方向に第2奥フィン62を回動させ、通風路3内の空気流を上側に縮流させるように動作する。このとき、前可動ルーバ4は、3枚の横フィン41,42,43が斜め下方に向けられるが、このときの変流が奥可動ルーバ6による縮流と前可動ルーバ4による偏向とに分割されて生じ、後可動ルーバ5と前可動ルーバ4との間で後可動ルーバ5による変流が戻される現象を抑制するようになっている。   That is, when the wind direction is directed downward, the rear movable louver 6 as shown in FIG. 4 is centered on the support shaft 62a at its end so that the tip of the second back fin 62 is directed obliquely upward. The second inner fin 62 is rotated in the clockwise direction so that the air flow in the ventilation path 3 is contracted upward. At this time, the front movable louver 4 has three horizontal fins 41, 42, 43 directed obliquely downward, but the current flow at this time is divided into a contracted flow by the back movable louver 6 and a deflection by the front movable louver 4. Thus, the phenomenon that the current flow caused by the rear movable louver 5 is returned between the rear movable louver 5 and the front movable louver 4 is suppressed.

一方、風向を上に向ける場合、図5のように奥可動ルーバ6は、第1奥フィン61の先端部を、斜め下方に向けるように、その末端部の支軸61aを中心に図5の反時計方向に第1奥フィン61を回動させ、通風路3内の空気流を下側に縮流させるようになっている。このとき、前可動ルーバ4は、3枚の横フィン41,42,43が斜め上方に向けられるので、上記と同様に、このときの変流が奥可動ルーバ6による縮流と前可動ルーバ4による偏向とに分割され、後可動ルーバ5と前可動ルーバ4との間で後可動ルーバ5による変流が戻される現象を抑制する構造となっている。   On the other hand, when the wind direction is directed upward, the rear movable louver 6 as shown in FIG. 5 is centered on the support shaft 61a at its end so that the front end of the first back fin 61 is directed obliquely downward. The first back fin 61 is rotated in the counterclockwise direction, and the air flow in the ventilation path 3 is contracted downward. At this time, the front movable louver 4 has the three horizontal fins 41, 42, 43 directed obliquely upward, so that the current flow at this time is reduced by the rear movable louver 6 and the front movable louver 4 as described above. Thus, the structure is configured to suppress the phenomenon in which the current is returned by the rear movable louver 5 between the rear movable louver 5 and the front movable louver 4.

上記構成のレジスタは、自動車の車内のインストルメントパネルやダッシュボードの部分に、そのケース本体1の末端を図示しない通風ダクトに接続するようにして装着される。通風ダクトから送られる空気は、ケース本体1の通風路3から空気吹出口2を通して吹き出される。   The register having the above-described configuration is attached to an instrument panel or a dashboard in an automobile so that the end of the case body 1 is connected to a ventilation duct (not shown). The air sent from the ventilation duct is blown out from the ventilation path 3 of the case body 1 through the air outlet 2.

送風方向をレジスタの真正面とする場合、図2のように、前可動ルーバ4の横フィン42は通風路3の送風方向と平行とされ、上下の横フィン41,43は内側凹部44,45に収納され、奥可動ルーバ6の第1奥フィン61及び第2奥フィン62は内側凹部63,64に収納された状態となる。これにより、空気流は、通風路3内を真直ぐに進み、後可動ルーバ5の縦フィン51の間を通過し、空気吹出口2から正面前方に真直ぐ吹き出される。   When the air blowing direction is directly in front of the register, as shown in FIG. 2, the horizontal fins 42 of the front movable louver 4 are parallel to the air blowing direction of the ventilation path 3, and the upper and lower horizontal fins 41, 43 are formed in the inner recesses 44, 45. The first inner fin 61 and the second inner fin 62 of the inner movable louver 6 are stored in the inner recesses 63 and 64. As a result, the air flow goes straight through the ventilation path 3, passes between the vertical fins 51 of the rear movable louver 5, and is blown straight forward from the air outlet 2 to the front front.

このとき、後可動ルーバ5の各縦フィン51を左右に回動させると、その方向に風向が変わり、前可動ルーバ4による上下短手方向の変流はないため、空気流の縮流は生じず、左右水平方向に風向を良好に変えて送風することができる。   At this time, if the vertical fins 51 of the rear movable louver 5 are rotated to the left and right, the wind direction changes in that direction, and there is no current flow in the vertical direction due to the front movable louver 4, so that the air flow contracts. However, it is possible to blow with a favorable change in the wind direction in the horizontal direction.

一方、空気の吹出方向を下方に変える場合、図4のように、前可動ルーバ4の横フィン41,42,43を下方に回動させ、奥可動ルーバ6はその第2奥フィン62の先端部を上方に向くように回動させる。   On the other hand, when the air blowing direction is changed downward, as shown in FIG. 4, the horizontal fins 41, 42, 43 of the front movable louver 4 are rotated downward, and the inner movable louver 6 is moved to the tip of the second inner fin 62. Rotate the part to face upward.

これにより、通風路3を流れる空気流は、図4のように、奥可動ルーバ6の第2奥フィン62により短手方向の斜め上方に曲げられて縮流され、縮流された状態で後可動ルーバ5の縦フィン51の間を通過し、そこで後可動ルーバ5の向きに応じて長手方向(左右方向)に風向を変え、その状態で、空気流は次に前可動ルーバ4の横フィン41,42,43の間を通り、短手方向の斜め下方に偏向されて曲げられ、空気吹出口2から送風される。   As a result, the airflow flowing through the ventilation path 3 is bent and contracted obliquely upward in the short direction by the second back fin 62 of the back movable louver 6 as shown in FIG. It passes between the vertical fins 51 of the movable louver 5 and changes the wind direction in the longitudinal direction (left-right direction) according to the direction of the rear movable louver 5, and in this state, the air flow is then the horizontal fin of the front movable louver 4. Passes between 41, 42, 43, is deflected and bent obliquely downward in the short direction, and is blown from the air outlet 2.

一方、空気の吹出方向を上方に変える場合、図5のように、前可動ルーバ4の横フィン41,42,43を上方に回動させ、奥可動ルーバ6はその第1奥フィン61の先端部を下方に向くように回動させる。   On the other hand, when the air blowing direction is changed upward, as shown in FIG. 5, the lateral fins 41, 42, 43 of the front movable louver 4 are rotated upward, and the rear movable louver 6 is moved to the tip of the first rear fin 61. Rotate the part to face downward.

これにより、通風路3を流れる空気流は、図5のように、奥可動ルーバ6の第1奥フィン61により短手方向の斜め下方に曲げられて縮流され、縮流された状態で後可動ルーバ5の縦フィン51の間を通過し、そこで後可動ルーバ5の向きに応じて長手方向(左右方向)に風向を変え、その状態で、空気流は次に前可動ルーバ4の横フィン41,42,43の間を通り、短手方向の斜め上方に偏向されて曲げられ、空気吹出口2から送風される。   As a result, the airflow flowing through the ventilation path 3 is bent and contracted obliquely downward in the lateral direction by the first back fin 61 of the back movable louver 6 as shown in FIG. It passes between the vertical fins 51 of the movable louver 5 and changes the wind direction in the longitudinal direction (left-right direction) according to the direction of the rear movable louver 5, and in this state, the air flow is then the horizontal fin of the front movable louver 4. Passes between 41, 42, 43, is deflected and bent obliquely upward in the short direction, and is blown from the air outlet 2.

このように、短手方向(上下方向)に風向を変える変流部は、奥可動ルーバ6の部分が縮流部となり、前可動ルーバ4の部分が偏向部となって、風向を短手方向の斜め下方または上方に曲げる際の変流動作は、奥可動ルーバ6による縮流と前可動ルーバ4による偏向に分割されることとなる。   In this way, in the current changing portion that changes the wind direction in the short direction (vertical direction), the rear movable louver 6 portion becomes the contraction portion and the front movable louver 4 portion becomes the deflection portion, so that the wind direction changes in the short direction. The current changing operation at the time of bending downward or upward is divided into contraction by the rear movable louver 6 and deflection by the front movable louver 4.

このために、空気流が後可動ルーバ5から前可動ルーバ4を通過する際、縮流(圧縮された空気の流れ)が減少し、それにより、後可動ルーバ5を回動して風向を左右長手方向に変える際、風向が縮流により戻される現象が低減される。このため、長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長の空気吹出口2を有したレジスタであっても、前可動ルーバ4の向きを短手方向に振った状態で、後可動ルーバ5の向きを長手方向に振ったとき、縮流により風が戻されることがなく、後可動ルーバ5の向きに応じて風向を良好に変え、風の指向性を向上させることができる。   For this reason, when the air flow passes from the rear movable louver 5 to the front movable louver 4, the contracted flow (compressed air flow) is reduced, whereby the rear movable louver 5 is rotated to change the wind direction. When changing in the longitudinal direction, the phenomenon that the wind direction is returned by the contracted flow is reduced. Therefore, even in a register having an elongated air outlet 2 that is long in the longitudinal direction and short in the lateral direction, the direction of the rear movable louver 5 is changed with the direction of the front movable louver 4 being shaken in the lateral direction. When shaken in the longitudinal direction, the wind is not returned by the contracted flow, and the direction of the wind can be favorably changed according to the direction of the rear movable louver 5 to improve the directionality of the wind.

図6は第2実施形態のレジスタを示している。この図6の如く、前可動ルーバの枚数は2枚としてもよく、上下2枚の横フィン41,43のみからなる前可動ルーバ4を、ケース本体1内前部の上壁部及び下壁部に設けた、内側凹部44,45内に収納可能に、支軸41a,43aを介して軸支することができる。この図6のレジスタは、特にケース本体1の高さの低い、薄型のレジスタに好適である。   FIG. 6 shows a register of the second embodiment. As shown in FIG. 6, the number of front movable louvers may be two, and the front movable louver 4 including only two upper and lower horizontal fins 41 and 43 is connected to the upper wall portion and the lower wall portion of the front portion in the case body 1. It can be pivotally supported via the support shafts 41a and 43a so as to be housed in the inner concave portions 44 and 45 provided on the inner surface. The register of FIG. 6 is particularly suitable for a thin register having a low case body 1 height.

この図6に示すレジスタも、上記と同様に、風向を下方に振る場合には、前可動ルーバ4の上の横フィン41を、先端部を内側凹部44より中央側に出して斜め下方に向け、奥可動ルーバ6の第2奥フィン62の先端を斜め上方に向けて送風する。一方、風向を上方に振る場合には、図5の場合と同様に、前可動ルーバ4の下の横フィン43を、先端部を内側凹部45より中央側に出して斜め上方に向け、奥可動ルーバ6の第1奥フィン61の先端を斜め下方に向けて送風する。このように、2枚の横フィン41,43のみから前可動ルーバ4を構成することにより、スリット状の空気吹出口2の形状を、より短手方向に短く細長に形成することができる。   Similarly to the above, in the register shown in FIG. 6, when the wind direction is swung downward, the horizontal fin 41 on the front movable louver 4 is protruded obliquely downward with the tip portion protruding from the inner recess 44 toward the center. Then, the tip of the second back fin 62 of the back movable louver 6 is blown obliquely upward. On the other hand, when the wind direction is swung upward, as in the case of FIG. 5, the horizontal fins 43 below the front movable louver 4 are moved in the back direction with the tip portion protruding toward the center from the inner recess 45 and directed obliquely upward. The first louver 61 of the louver 6 is blown with the tip of the first back fin 61 obliquely downward. In this way, by forming the front movable louver 4 from only the two lateral fins 41 and 43, the shape of the slit-like air outlet 2 can be formed in a shorter and shorter direction.

図7,8は第3実施形態のレジスタを示している。この例では、上記の奥可動ルーバ6に代えて1枚の奥フィン81からなる奥可動ルーバ8がケース本体1内の通風路3の上流側に配設される。上記と同様な部分については、図7,8に上記と同じ符号を付してその説明を省略する。   7 and 8 show the register of the third embodiment. In this example, a back movable louver 8 including a single back fin 81 is provided on the upstream side of the ventilation path 3 in the case body 1 in place of the above-described back movable louver 6. About the same part as the above, the same code | symbol as the above is attached | subjected to FIG.7, 8, and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

図7,8に示すように、空気吹出口2の直ぐ内側に配設される前可動ルーバ4は、2枚の横フィン41、43を空気吹出口2の長手方向に沿って、上下に所定の間隔をあけて配置し、各横フィン41、43の両側から突出した水平方向の支軸41a,43aを、ケース本体1の両側壁に、回動可能に軸支して構成される。前可動ルーバ4の各横フィン41,43は、回動機構46により、上下方向に回動し、奥可動ルーバ8と協働して上下短手方向に風向を変えるようになっている。   As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the front movable louver 4 disposed just inside the air outlet 2 has two horizontal fins 41 and 43 vertically arranged along the longitudinal direction of the air outlet 2. The horizontal support shafts 41 a, 43 a that protrude from both sides of the horizontal fins 41, 43 are rotatably supported on both side walls of the case body 1. The horizontal fins 41, 43 of the front movable louver 4 are rotated in the vertical direction by a rotation mechanism 46, and the wind direction is changed in the vertical direction in cooperation with the rear movable louver 8.

前可動ルーバ4の回動機構46は、手動操作によるリンク機構、歯車機構、或いはモータ駆動機構により構成され、上記と同様に、空気吹出口2の前方に真直ぐ送風を行なうとき、上下の横フィン41,43を内側凹部44,45に収納された状態とし、風向を下方に向けるとき、図7のように、上の横フィン41を内側凹部44より内側に出して斜め下方に向け、風向を上方に向けるときには、図8のように、下の横フィン43を内側凹部45より内側に出して斜め上方に向けるように構成される。   The rotation mechanism 46 of the front movable louver 4 is constituted by a manually operated link mechanism, a gear mechanism, or a motor drive mechanism. Similarly to the above, when air is blown straight ahead of the air outlet 2, the upper and lower horizontal fins 41 and 43 are accommodated in the inner recesses 44 and 45, and when the wind direction is directed downward, as shown in FIG. 7, the upper horizontal fin 41 is protruded inward from the inner recess 44 and directed obliquely downward, and the wind direction is changed. When facing upward, as shown in FIG. 8, the lower horizontal fins 43 are configured to protrude inward from the inner recess 45 and be directed obliquely upward.

前可動ルーバ4の上流側に配設される後可動ルーバ5は、多数の縦フィン51を長手方向に間隔をおいて並設してなり、多数の縦フィン51は、上下に突設した支軸51aを、通風路3の上側壁と下側壁に設けた軸孔に嵌合し、回動可能に軸支される。後可動ルーバ5は上記と同様に、回動機構56によってそれらの縦フィン51を左右に振り風向を左右に変えるように動作する。   The rear movable louver 5 disposed on the upstream side of the front movable louver 4 has a large number of vertical fins 51 arranged side by side in the longitudinal direction, and the large number of vertical fins 51 are vertically supported. The shaft 51a is fitted into shaft holes provided in the upper side wall and the lower side wall of the ventilation path 3, and is pivotally supported. Similarly to the above, the rear movable louver 5 operates such that the vertical fins 51 are swung left and right by the rotation mechanism 56 and the wind direction is changed left and right.

さらに、後可動ルーバ5の直ぐ上流側の通風路3内に、1枚の奥フィン81のみからなる奥可動ルーバ8が、前可動ルーバ4と協働して上下短手方向に風向を変えるように配設される。奥可動ルーバ8の奥フィン81は、空気吹出口2の長手方向(水平横方向)に沿って長尺の横長形状に形成され、その両側端部に支軸81aが突設され、ケース本体1の両側壁部に設けた軸孔に、支軸81aが嵌合するなどの形態で、通風路3内で上下に回動可能に軸支される。   Further, in the ventilation path 3 immediately upstream of the rear movable louver 5, the rear movable louver 8 composed of only one rear fin 81 changes the wind direction in the vertical direction in cooperation with the front movable louver 4. It is arranged. The back fin 81 of the back movable louver 8 is formed in a long horizontally long shape along the longitudinal direction (horizontal horizontal direction) of the air outlet 2, and support shafts 81 a are projected from both side end portions thereof. The shaft 81a is pivotally supported so as to be vertically rotatable in the ventilation passage 3 in such a manner that the support shaft 81a is fitted into shaft holes provided in both side walls of the air.

奥可動ルーバ8の回動機構86は、操作ノブの操作に応じて奥フィン81を回動させるリンク機構、或いはモータ駆動機構により構成され、送風方向を下方に変える場合、奥フィン81の下流側先端部を、送風方向とは逆の、斜め上方に向くように回動させ、送風方向を上方に変える場合、奥フィン81の下流側先端部を、斜め下方に向くように回動させるように構成される。   The rotation mechanism 86 of the back movable louver 8 is configured by a link mechanism or a motor drive mechanism that rotates the back fin 81 according to the operation of the operation knob, and when the blowing direction is changed downward, the downstream side of the back fin 81. When the tip portion is rotated so as to face obliquely upward, which is opposite to the air blowing direction, and the air blowing direction is changed upward, the downstream side tip portion of the back fin 81 is turned so as to face obliquely downward. Composed.

上記構成のレジスタは、送風方向を下方に変える場合、図7のように、前可動ルーバ4の横フィン41,43を下方に回動させ、奥可動ルーバ8の奥フィン81の下流側先端部を、斜め上方に向くように回動させる。   When changing the blowing direction downward, the register having the above configuration rotates the horizontal fins 41 and 43 of the front movable louver 4 downward as shown in FIG. Is rotated diagonally upward.

これにより、通風路3を流れる空気流は、図7のように、奥可動ルーバ8の奥フィン81により短手方向の斜め上方に曲げられて縮流され、縮流された状態で後可動ルーバ5の縦フィン51の間を通過し、そこで後可動ルーバ5の向きに応じて長手方向(左右方向)に風向を変え、その状態で、空気流は次に前可動ルーバ4の横フィン41,43の間を通り、短手方向の斜め下方に偏向されて曲げられ、空気吹出口2から送風される。   Accordingly, the air flow flowing through the ventilation path 3 is bent and contracted obliquely upward in the short direction by the back fins 81 of the back movable louver 8 as shown in FIG. 5 passes between the vertical fins 51 and changes the wind direction in the longitudinal direction (left and right direction) in accordance with the direction of the rear movable louver 5, and in that state, the air flow is next to the horizontal fins 41 of the front movable louver 4. 43 passes through 43, is deflected and bent obliquely downward in the short direction, and is blown from the air outlet 2.

一方、送風方向を上方に変える場合、図8のように、前可動ルーバ4の横フィン41,43を上方に回動させ、奥可動ルーバ8はその奥フィン81の下流側先端部を下方に向くように回動させる。   On the other hand, when changing the blowing direction upward, as shown in FIG. 8, the horizontal fins 41, 43 of the front movable louver 4 are rotated upward, and the rear movable louver 8 has the downstream end portion of the rear fin 81 downward. Rotate to face.

これにより、通風路3を流れる空気流は、図8のように、奥可動ルーバ8の奥フィン81により短手方向の斜め下方に曲げられて縮流され、縮流された状態で後可動ルーバ5の縦フィン51の間を通過し、そこで後可動ルーバ5の向きに応じて長手方向(左右方向)に風向を変え、その状態で、空気流は次に前可動ルーバ4の横フィン41,43の間を通り、短手方向の斜め上方に偏向されて曲げられ、空気吹出口2から送風される。   Thus, the air flow flowing through the ventilation path 3 is bent and contracted obliquely downward in the short direction by the back fins 81 of the back movable louver 8 as shown in FIG. 5 passes between the vertical fins 51 and changes the wind direction in the longitudinal direction (left and right direction) in accordance with the direction of the rear movable louver 5, and in that state, the air flow is next to the horizontal fins 41 of the front movable louver 4. Passing through 43, deflected and bent obliquely upward in the short direction, and blown from the air outlet 2.

このように、短手方向(上下方向)に風向を変える変流部は、上記と同様、奥可動ルーバ8の部分が縮流部となり、前可動ルーバ4の部分が偏向部となって、風向を短手方向の斜め下方または上方に曲げる際の変流動作は、奥可動ルーバ8による縮流と前可動ルーバ4による偏向に分割されることとなる。このために、空気流が後可動ルーバ5から前可動ルーバ4を通過する際、縮流(圧縮された空気の流れ)が減少し、それにより、後可動ルーバ5を回動して風向を左右長手方向に変える際、風向が縮流により戻される現象が低減される。   As described above, in the current changing portion that changes the wind direction in the short direction (vertical direction), the rear movable louver 8 portion becomes the contracted portion and the front movable louver 4 portion becomes the deflecting portion, as described above. The current-transforming operation at the time of bending diagonally downward or upward in the short direction is divided into contraction by the rear movable louver 8 and deflection by the front movable louver 4. For this reason, when the air flow passes from the rear movable louver 5 to the front movable louver 4, the contracted flow (compressed air flow) is reduced, whereby the rear movable louver 5 is rotated to change the wind direction. When changing in the longitudinal direction, the phenomenon that the wind direction is returned by the contracted flow is reduced.

図9,10は、第4実施形態のレジスタを示し、この例では、上記の前可動ルーバ4に代えて、空気吹出口2の直ぐ内側の上部と下部に、山形凸条11,12が空気吹出口2の長手方向に沿って設けられる。   9 and 10 show a register according to the fourth embodiment. In this example, instead of the front movable louver 4, chevron ridges 11 and 12 are provided at the upper and lower portions immediately inside the air outlet 2. It is provided along the longitudinal direction of the blower outlet 2.

このレジスタの空気吹出口2は、横長で上下幅の短い薄型レジスタの空気吹出口として形成され、上部と下部の山形凸条11,12は空気吹出口2の上下の両内側面に長手方向に沿って形成され、各山形凸条11、12の高さは、この図面の実施形態では、空気吹出口2の高さ(縦方向の短辺の長さ)の約9%となっており、空気吹出口2の高さによっては、その高さの約7〜12%とすることができる。   The air blower outlet 2 of this register is formed as an air blower outlet of a thin register having a horizontally long and short vertical width, and the upper and lower chevron ridges 11 and 12 are formed on the upper and lower inner side surfaces of the air blower 2 in the longitudinal direction. In the embodiment of this drawing, the height of each mountain-shaped ridge 11, 12 is about 9% of the height of the air outlet 2 (the length of the short side in the vertical direction), Depending on the height of the air outlet 2, it can be about 7 to 12% of the height.

また、上部と下部の山形凸条11、12には、その上流側に傾斜面11a,12aが形成されている。この山形凸条11、12の上流側の傾斜面11a,12aは、各々、その傾斜方向を後可動ルーバ5の縦フィン51に向けて形成されており、この実施形態の傾斜面11a,12aの水平線に対する傾斜角度は、ここでは約45°に設定されるが、空気吹出口2の高さ(短手方向の長さ)によっては、約35°〜55°に設定することができる。   The upper and lower chevron ridges 11 and 12 are formed with inclined surfaces 11a and 12a on the upstream side. The inclined surfaces 11a and 12a on the upstream side of the angle ridges 11 and 12 are formed with their inclination directions directed toward the vertical fins 51 of the rear movable louver 5, and the inclined surfaces 11a and 12a of this embodiment The inclination angle with respect to the horizontal line is set to about 45 ° here, but can be set to about 35 ° to 55 ° depending on the height (length in the short direction) of the air outlet 2.

山形凸条11と山形凸条12は、図9、10に示すように、空気吹出口2の直ぐ内側面の対向した上部と下部に、空気吹出口2の横方向中央線に対し対称形に形成される。さらに、山形凸条11と山形凸条12は、同一横断面を持ってその長手方向に連続して形成されている。   As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the chevron ridges 11 and the chevron ridges 12 are symmetrical with respect to the horizontal center line of the air outlet 2 on the opposed upper and lower portions of the inner side surface of the air outlet 2. It is formed. Further, the chevron ridges 11 and the chevron ridges 12 are continuously formed in the longitudinal direction with the same cross section.

他方、山形凸条11,12の下流側の面つまりレジスタの正面側の面は、前方に向けて広がるように、つまり前斜め上方と前斜め下方に向けて広がるように開口し、上部と下部の前方傾斜面11b、12bとして形成されている。この山形凸条11と山形凸条12は、図9、10に示すように、奥可動ルーバ8の奥フィン81の下流側先端を、上方或いは下方に向けたとき、空気吹出口2から吹き出される空気流の方向を下方或いは上方に曲げるように作用する。   On the other hand, the downstream surface of the ridges 11 and 12, that is, the surface on the front side of the register, is open so as to expand forward, that is, to expand toward the front diagonally upper side and the front diagonally lower side. Are formed as front inclined surfaces 11b and 12b. As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the angle ridges 11 and the angle ridges 12 are blown out from the air outlet 2 when the downstream end of the inner fin 81 of the inner movable louver 8 is directed upward or downward. The air flow direction is bent downward or upward.

つまり、奥可動ルーバ8の奥フィン81の下流側先端を上側(斜め上方)に向けた場合、図9のように、通風路3を流れる空気流は、その上壁面近傍に沿って流れ、上側の山形凸条11の傾斜面11aに当たって下方に曲げられ、斜め下方に送風されるようなっている。他方、奥フィン81の下流側先端を下側(斜め下方)に向けた場合、図10のように、通風路3を流れる空気流は、その下壁面近傍に沿って流れ、下側の山形凸条12の傾斜面12aに当たって上方に曲げられ、斜め上方に送風されるようなっている。また、斜め下方または斜め上方の送風時には、前方に向けて広がるように開口した前方傾斜面11b、12bにより風が良好にガイドされ、風の指向性が開口部の縁で乱されることなく、送風されるようになっている。   That is, when the downstream end of the back fin 81 of the back movable louver 8 is directed upward (obliquely upward), the airflow flowing through the ventilation path 3 flows along the vicinity of the upper wall surface as shown in FIG. It hits the inclined surface 11a of the mountain-shaped ridge 11 and is bent downward and blown obliquely downward. On the other hand, when the downstream end of the back fin 81 is directed downward (obliquely downward), the airflow flowing through the ventilation path 3 flows along the vicinity of the lower wall surface as shown in FIG. It strikes the inclined surface 12a of the strip 12, is bent upward, and is blown obliquely upward. In addition, when blowing obliquely downward or obliquely upward, the wind is well guided by the front inclined surfaces 11b and 12b opened so as to spread forward, and the directivity of the wind is not disturbed by the edge of the opening, It is designed to be blown.

奥可動ルーバ8の回動機構86は、上記と同様に、操作ノブの操作に応じて奥フィン81を回動させるリンク機構、或いはモータ駆動機構により構成され、送風方向を下方に変える場合、奥フィン81の下流側先端部を、送風方向とは逆の、斜め上方に向くように回動させ、送風方向を上方に変える場合、奥フィン81の下流側先端部を、斜め下方に向くように回動させるように構成される。   Similarly to the above, the turning mechanism 86 of the back movable louver 8 is constituted by a link mechanism that rotates the back fin 81 in accordance with the operation of the operation knob or a motor drive mechanism. When the tip of the downstream side of the fin 81 is rotated so as to face obliquely upward, which is opposite to the air blowing direction, and the air blowing direction is changed upward, the downstream tip of the back fin 81 is directed obliquely downward. Configured to rotate.

上記構成のレジスタは、送風方向を下方に変える場合、図9のように、上記と同様、奥可動ルーバ8の奥フィン81の下流側先端部を、送風方向とは逆の、斜め上方に向くように回動させる。   When the blowing direction is changed downward, the register having the above configuration faces the downstream end portion of the back fin 81 of the back movable louver 8 obliquely upward, which is opposite to the blowing direction, as shown in FIG. Rotate as follows.

これにより、通風路3を流れる空気流は、図9のように、奥可動ルーバ8の奥フィン81により短手方向の斜め上方に曲げられて縮流され、縮流された状態で後可動ルーバ5の縦フィン51の間を通過し、そこで後可動ルーバ5の向きに応じて長手方向(左右方向)に風向を変え、その状態で、通風路3を流れる空気流は、その上壁面近傍に沿って流れ、上側の山形凸条11の傾斜面11aに当たって下方に曲げられ、空気吹出口2から斜め下方に送風される。   As a result, the air flow flowing through the ventilation path 3 is bent and contracted obliquely upward in the short direction by the back fins 81 of the back movable louver 8, as shown in FIG. 5 passes between the vertical fins 51 and changes the wind direction in the longitudinal direction (left and right direction) according to the direction of the rear movable louver 5, and in this state, the air flow flowing through the ventilation path 3 is near the upper wall surface. It flows along and is bent downward by hitting the inclined surface 11a of the upper chevron 11 and blown obliquely downward from the air outlet 2.

一方、送風方向を上方に変える場合、図10のように、奥可動ルーバ8の奥フィン81を、その下流側先端部を下方に向くように回動させる。   On the other hand, when changing the blowing direction upward, as shown in FIG. 10, the inner fin 81 of the inner movable louver 8 is rotated so that the downstream end portion thereof faces downward.

これにより、通風路3を流れる空気流は、図10のように、奥可動ルーバ8の奥フィン81により短手方向の斜め下方に曲げられて縮流され、縮流された状態で後可動ルーバ5の縦フィン51の間を通過し、そこで後可動ルーバ5の向きに応じて長手方向(左右方向)に風向を変え、その状態で、通風路3を流れる空気流は、その下壁面近傍に沿って流れ、下側の山形凸条12の傾斜面12aに当たって上方に曲げられ、空気吹出口2から斜め上方に送風される。   As a result, the airflow flowing through the ventilation path 3 is bent and contracted obliquely downward in the short direction by the back fins 81 of the back movable louver 8 as shown in FIG. 5 passes between the vertical fins 51 and changes the wind direction in the longitudinal direction (left and right direction) according to the direction of the rear movable louver 5, and in this state, the air flow flowing through the ventilation path 3 is near the lower wall surface. It flows along and is bent upward by hitting the inclined surface 12a of the lower chevron 12 and blown obliquely upward from the air outlet 2.

このように、短手方向(上下方向)に風向を変える変流部は、上記と同様、奥可動ルーバ8の部分が縮流部となり、山形凸条11,12の部分が偏向部となって、風向を短手方向の斜め下方または上方に曲げる際の変流動作は、奥可動ルーバ8による縮流と山形凸条11,12による偏向に分割されることとなる。このために、空気流が後可動ルーバ5から山形凸条11,12を通過する際、縮流(圧縮された空気の流れ)が減少し、それにより、後可動ルーバ5を回動して風向を左右長手方向に変える際、風向が縮流により戻される現象が低減される。   As described above, in the current changing portion that changes the wind direction in the short direction (vertical direction), the back movable louver 8 portion becomes the contracted portion and the chevron ridges 11 and 12 become the deflecting portions. The current changing operation when the wind direction is bent obliquely downward or upward in the short direction is divided into the contracted flow by the rear movable louver 8 and the deflection by the mountain-shaped ridges 11 and 12. For this reason, when the air flow passes through the chevron ridges 11 and 12 from the rear movable louver 5, the contracted flow (compressed air flow) is reduced, whereby the rear movable louver 5 is rotated to move the wind direction. The phenomenon that the wind direction is returned by the contracted flow is reduced when the is changed to the left and right longitudinal direction.

このため、長手方向に長く短手方向に短い細長の空気吹出口2を有したレジスタであっても、奥可動ルーバ8の向きを短手方向に振った状態で、後可動ルーバ5の向きを長手方向に振ったとき、縮流により風が戻されることがなく、後可動ルーバ5の向きに応じて風向を良好に変え、風の指向性を向上させることができる。   For this reason, even in a register having an elongated air outlet 2 that is long in the longitudinal direction and short in the lateral direction, the direction of the rear movable louver 5 is changed while the direction of the rear movable louver 8 is shaken in the lateral direction. When shaken in the longitudinal direction, the wind is not returned by the contracted flow, and the direction of the wind can be favorably changed according to the direction of the rear movable louver 5 to improve the directionality of the wind.

なお、上記実施形態では、横長の空気吹出口2を有したレジスタについて、前可動ルーバ4に横フィン41,42,43を設け、後可動ルーバ5に縦フィン51を設けるなどして構成したが、それらを90度回転させた状態として、縦長の薄型レジスタに適用することもでき、縦長の薄型レジスタの場合、縦に細長い形状の空気吹出口を設けると共に、前可動ルーバに縦フィンを設け、後可動ルーバに横フィンを並設し、或いは縦長の空気吹出口の内側の左右両側に、前可動ルーバに代えて山形凸条を設けるように構成することもできる。この場合、奥可動ルーバの奥フィンは前可動ルーバの縦フィン或いは山形凸条と同じ縦方向となる。   In the above embodiment, the register having the horizontally long air outlet 2 is configured by providing the front movable louver 4 with the horizontal fins 41, 42, 43 and the rear movable louver 5 with the vertical fins 51. In addition, in a state where they are rotated by 90 degrees, it can be applied to a vertically long thin register. In the case of a vertically long thin register, an air outlet having a vertically elongated shape is provided, and a vertical fin is provided in a front movable louver. Lateral fins can be arranged side by side on the rear movable louver, or chevron ridges can be provided on both the left and right sides inside the vertically long air outlet instead of the front movable louver. In this case, the back fins of the back movable louver are in the same vertical direction as the vertical fins or the ridges of the front movable louver.
