Description of Related Arts

In addition to common air conditioning systems, small air conditioning devices such as fans and heaters are also widely used. Accordingly, fans are considered as an indoor device, wherein the fans can be categorized into tower fans, desktop fans, and window fans adapted to be installed on the window for introducing outdoor fresh air into the room. Even though the window fan can suck the outdoor fresh air into the room, it does not provide a heating function to provide warm air into the room. Therefore, the window fan can only be used in summertime. Particularly, 1 to 3 window fans are recommended to be installed into on the window for achieving different air volumes in the room. Even though the existing household heaters can heat up the air to provide warm air in the room, the heaters can only be used as the indoor heating devices and cannot introduce outdoor fresh air into the room. In other words, the household heaters only have one single heating function. Therefore, the traditional window fans and household heaters have limitations of use obviously.

The present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description and the accompanying drawings.

Embodiment 1

As shown in FIGS. 1A to 5, according to the air regulating device, the casing assembly 10 comprises a front casing 11 and a rear casing 12 securely coupled to the front casing 11. In one example, the front casing 11 has four front screw posts provided at four corners respectively and the rear casing 12 has four rear screw posts provided at four corners respectively. When the front casing 11 and the rear casing 12 are coupled with each other to align the front and rear screw posts with each other, the front casing 11 and the rear casing 12 can be secured by fixing screws to the front and rear screw posts respectively. The front casing 11 has a first fresh air inlet 112 provided at an upper portion thereof for indoor and outdoor air circulation, an air outlet 111 which is provided at a lower portion of the front casing 11 below the first fresh air inlet 112 and is positioned aligned with the heating assembly 40 for heating up the air into the room. The first fresh air inlet 112 and the air outlet 111 have a plurality of air through apertures, wherein the air through apertures can be arranged regularly or irregularly. In the first embodiment, the air through apertures are spacedly lined up in a row and column manner to form the first fresh air inlet 112 having a rectangular shape. The rear casing 12 has a second fresh air inlet 121A provided at an upper portion thereof for introducing the outdoor fresh air into the room in order to circulate air indoor and outdoor. The second fresh air inlet 121A also has a plurality of air through apertures spacedly lined up in a row and column manner to form the second fresh air inlet 121A having a rectangular shape.

As shown in FIGS. 1A, 1B and 2, the outdoor fresh air regulator 20 comprises a front damper gate 21 and a rear damper gate 22. The front damper gate 21 is movably arranged on an outer upper portion of the front casing 11 at a position corresponding to the first fresh air inlet 112 of the front casing 11 for opening, closing or partially opening-partially close the first fresh air inlet 112. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the front damper gate 21 comprises a first gate plate 211, two front gate sliders 212, and a front damper gate positioning assembly 213. The first gate plate 211, having a rectangular shaped, is shaped and sized larger than the first fresh air inlet 112. Therefore, when the first gate plate 211 is moved in a closed position, the first fresh air inlet 112 is entirely covered by the first gate plate 211 to block the air passing through the first fresh air inlet 112. The two front gate sliders 212 are vertically provided at two sides of the first fresh air inlet 112 of the front casing 11, wherein two sides, i.e. the left and right sides, of the first gate plate 211 are slidably coupled at the front gate sliders 212 respectively. Accordingly, each of the front gate sliders 212 has a L-shaped cross section, and is protruded from the front casing 11 to form a front gate sliding groove therebetween, wherein openings of the front gate sliding grooves of the two front gate sliders 212 face toward each other. The two sides of the first gate plate 211 are slidably coupled at the front gate sliding grooves of the two front gate sliders 212 respectively, wherein the first gate plate 211 is actuated to move up and down along the front gate sliders 212 to regulate an amount of air passing through the first fresh air inlet 112. The front damper gate positioning assembly 213 is arranged to retain the first gate plate 211 after the first gate plate 211 is moved in a desired position. The front damper gate positioning assembly 213 comprises a plurality of elastic positioning protrusions 2131 and a plurality of positioning recesses 2132, wherein the elastic positioning protrusions 2131 are spacedly provided at the two sides of the first gate plate 211.

Each of the elastic positioning protrusions 2131 comprises a ball-shaped retention pin 21311, a spring 21312, and a spring slot 21313 formed at the side of first gate plate 211 to receive the spring 21312, wherein the spring 21312 has one end biasing against the retention pin 21311 and an opposed end biasing against, preferably affixing to, a bottom of the spring slot 21313. A portion of the retention pin 21311 is pushed, via the spring 21312, out of the spring slot 21313. Each of the positioning recesses 2132 is a semicircular pit shaped corresponding to the retention pin 21311, wherein a diameter of each of the positioning recesses 2132 is slightly larger than a diameter of the retention pin 21311. When the first gate plate 211 is moved up and down in a desired position, the retention pins 21311 are pushed by the springs 21312 to engage with the positioning recesses 2132 respectively, such that the first gate plate 211 is held and retained in the desired position for maintaining the amount of air passing through the first fresh air inlet 112. The rear damper gate 22 is movably arranged on an outer upper portion of the rear casing 12 at a position corresponding to the second fresh air inlet 121A of the rear casing 12 for opening, closing or partially opening-partially close the second fresh air inlet 121A. The rear damper gate 22 comprises a second gate plate 221 and two rear gate sliders 222. The second gate plate 221 is shaped and sized larger than the second fresh air inlet 121A. Therefore, when the second gate plate 221 is moved in a closed position, the second fresh air inlet 121A is entirely covered by the second gate plate 221 to block the air passing through the second fresh air inlet 121A. The two rear gate sliders 222 are horizontally provided at upper and lower sides of the second fresh air inlet 121A of the rear casing 12, wherein two sides, i.e. the top and bottom sides, of the second gate plate 221 are slidably coupled at the rear gate sliders 222 respectively, such that the second gate plate 221 is actuated to move left and right along the rear gate sliders 222 to regulate an amount of air passing through the second fresh air inlet 121A.
