Twist suppression mechanism and air conditioner having the same

摘要

The invention provides a distortion suppressing mechanism capable of suppressing distortion caused by the weight of a up-down wind deflection blade at a good precision and an air conditioner containing the same. The distortion suppressing mechanism comprising a rotating component connected with the other end of a support shaft and rotating with the rotation of the support shaft; a force-applying component in contact with the rotating component at an offset position of the rotating center of the rotating component so as to apply force to the rotating component in the direction in which the torque applied to the support shaft because of the weight of the up-down wind deflection blade is decreased. The force component, applied by the force-applying component to the rotating component in the rotating direction of the rotating component is configured in such a way that the force component when the rotating component is located at a position corresponding to the closed position of the up-down wind deflection blade is larger than that when the rotating component is located at a position corresponding to the maximum opened position of the up-down wind deflection blade.
