More specifically, the present invention relates to an outlet provided with a cleaning means that can easily remove and clean dust adhering to the grid-shaped vanes of the outlet in the installed state without removing the outlet. It's about the outlet.

In general, performing indoor air conditioning, such as in a home or office, means maintaining indoor air at a temperature, humidity, and cleanliness appropriate for the intended use, while also eliminating various types of dust and harmful gases. It is also called air-conditioning, and is recognized as both cooling and heating to maintain the indoor atmosphere in a state suitable for the user's life throughout the four seasons, especially through cooling in the summer and heating in the winter. It is becoming.

The most widely used method for indoor air conditioning as described above is to install an air conditioner that can change the air condition into cold or hot air according to the need in a machine room located in a place such as a basement, and then install various A blower is used to blow the cold and hot air produced by the air conditioner into the room through a duct. A duct is installed on the wall, ceiling or floor to blow cold and hot air through the room. There are various types of outlets connected to the outlet.

This outlet is an opening for discharging the conditioned air from the air conditioner through the duct into the room. The installation location is the ceiling, wall, window frame, floor, etc., and it is also installed in a lighting fixture. At this time, it is divided into an axial flow outlet and a double flow outlet according to the airflow direction and shape. The former includes a nozzle, a right-wood plate grid outlet, a slot outlet, and a perforated plate outlet, and the latter includes a plate-shaped outlet and a ceiling diffuser.

Meanwhile, the most widely used outlet is a vane grid type outlet. The vane grid type outlet is made by attaching vanes (wings) to a square frame, and is available in horizontal, vertical, and horizontal types depending on the direction in which the vanes are attached.

On the other hand, when the vane grid type outlet is used for a long period of time, dust flows in through the duct in the process of passing cold and hot conditioned air, or dust adsorbed from the indoor side accumulates, causing oil and dust to stick together, making it difficult to clean. If this situation continues for a long period of time, dust accumulated on the vane of the air outlet may interfere with air discharge, or polluted air and fine dust may flow into the room, creating a hygienic problem.

In order to remove dust accumulated on the vane of the outlet, cleaning is performed while it is installed on the ceiling or wall, or the frame itself on which the vane is installed is removed, cleaned, and then reassembled. As such, it was difficult to remove and clean the dust accumulated in the outlet.

Previously, a 'removable louver (Korean registered patent 10-0668113)' was proposed, which is easy to clean and remove dust accumulated on the vane such as the outlet.

The conventional detachable louver has blades (vanes) arranged horizontally at an angle at a predetermined interval and is used for purposes such as lighting, artificial lighting, daylight adjustment, ventilation, and ventilation, allowing for easy cleaning of the blades. It is characterized by a structure that is removable for use.

However, the conventional detachable louver has a problem in that it is inconvenient to separate each blade for cleaning and then reassemble it after cleaning is completed. In other words, it takes a lot of time to clean and assemble the blade, which reduces work efficiency.

Next, the vane 20 has the function of filtering bulky foreign substances contained in the air flowing through the duct, reduces flow friction of incoming air, and stabilizes the flow of air discharged from the blower, depending on the generation of air flow. This is a part to reduce noise.

The vanes 20 are erected at right angles in the up/down and left/right directions on the inner surface of the housing 10, and a plurality of vanes are erected vertically or horizontally at regular intervals on the front and rear surfaces of the housing 10, respectively. Can be installed.

Next, the cleaning means 100 is installed on one side of the housing 10 and slides in the longitudinal direction of the vane 20 to remove foreign substances attached to both surfaces of the vane 20.

The cleaning means 100 is disposed outside the vane 20 between opposing inner surfaces of the housing 10 and moves toward the bar body 110 and the vane 20, which are formed to extend in the horizontal or vertical direction. It is installed on one side of the bar body 110 to protrude at regular intervals to correspond to the number and position of the vanes 20 on one side, and each has an insertion groove 121 formed at the center so that it is divided into two branches. , It may include a close protrusion 120 into which the vane 20 is inserted into the insertion groove 121 between the two branches.

The bar body 110 has a bar-shaped body disposed perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the vane 20 on one side, and the length of the bar body 110 is located on both sides or the upper and lower sides of the housing 10. It can be formed to correspond to the width between them.

The close contact protrusion 120 is a part that protrudes from one side of the bar body 110, corresponds to each of the vanes 20, and is formed to protrude so that the two prongs are in close contact with the vane 20 as the center. You can.
