Description

本発明は、空気調和機の室内機に関するものである。 The present invention relates to an indoor unit of an air conditioner.

従来の一般的な空気調和機の室内機の吹き出し口には、熱交換された空気の吹き出し方向を左右に変更する左右方向風向変更羽根が設けられ、その左右方向風向変更羽根の回動軸を、リアガイダもしくはスタビライザに取り付けるため、左右方向風向変更羽根は、吹き出し口内部に存在していた（例えば、特許文献１参照）。
特開２００４-２３２９４３号公報 The air outlet of a conventional general air conditioner indoor unit is provided with a left / right air direction change vane that changes the air exchange direction of the heat-exchanged air to the left / right. In order to attach to the rear guider or the stabilizer, the airflow direction changing blade in the left-right direction is present inside the outlet (for example, see Patent Document 1).
JP 2004-232943 A

しかしながら、前記従来の空気調和機の室内機の構成では、左右の風向制御がしにくい、特に、広角に吹き出す事が出来ないという問題点があった。左右方向風向変更羽根を上下方向風向変更羽根に取り付けた室内機も存在するが、左右方向風向変更羽根の回動軸が、吹き出し口内部に固定されているため、結局この場合でも、左右の風向制御は吹き出し口内部でしか行うことが出来ない、という課題があった。 However, the configuration of the indoor unit of the conventional air conditioner has a problem that it is difficult to control the right and left wind directions, and in particular, it cannot be blown out to a wide angle. Some indoor units have left / right wind direction change blades attached to up / down direction wind direction change blades, but the rotation axis of the left / right direction wind direction change blades is fixed inside the outlet. There was a problem that control could only be performed inside the outlet.

本発明は、上記従来の課題を解決し、吹き出し口から吹き出される空気の左右への吹き分け角度を大きくすることができる空気調和機の室内機を提供することを目的とするものである。 An object of the present invention is to provide an indoor unit of an air conditioner that solves the above-described conventional problems and can increase the right and left blowing angle of the air blown from the blowout port.

前記従来の課題を解決するために、本発明の空気調和機の室内機は、スタビライザとリアガイダに挟まれて形成された吹き出し口と、回動可能で前記吹き出し口から吹き出される空気の左右方向の向きを変更する左右方向風向変更羽根を備え、前記左右方向風向変更羽根全体を前記吹き出し口の外部に配置するようにしたもので、よりユーザーに近い場所での、左右方向風向変更羽根による風向制御が可能となり、快適性の向上につながるだけでなく、従来のような吹き出し口内部に左右方向風向変更羽根が搭載されている場合と異なり、左右方向風向変更羽根の両端に壁面が存在しなくなるために、左右への吹き分け角度を大きくとることが可能となる。 In order to solve the above-described conventional problems, an indoor unit of an air conditioner according to the present invention includes an air outlet formed between a stabilizer and a rear guider, and a left and right direction of air that is rotatable and blown from the air outlet. The left and right direction wind direction changing blades are provided to change the direction of the air flow, and the entire left and right direction wind direction changing blades are arranged outside the outlet, and the wind direction by the left and right direction wind direction changing blades at a location closer to the user. Control is possible, not only improving comfort, but unlike the conventional case where the left and right wind direction changing blades are mounted inside the outlet, there are no wall surfaces at both ends of the left and right direction wind direction changing blades. Therefore, it is possible to increase the left and right blowing angle.

本発明の空気調和機の室内機は、左右方向風向変更羽根を吹き出し口外に配置することにより、よりユーザー側での左右風向制御が可能となるだけでなく、左右方向風向変更羽根の両端に吹き出し口の側壁が存在しなくなることから、左右への吹き分け角度を大きくすることが可能となる。 The indoor unit of the air conditioner of the present invention not only allows the user to control the left and right wind direction by arranging the left and right direction wind direction change blades outside the blowout port, but also blows out to both ends of the left and right direction wind direction change blades. Since the side wall of the mouth does not exist, it is possible to increase the right and left blowing angle.

第１の発明は、スタビライザとリアガイダに挟まれて形成された吹き出し口と、回動可能で前記吹き出し口から吹き出される空気の左右方向の向きを変更する左右方向風向変更羽根を備え、前記左右方向風向変更羽根全体を前記吹き出し口の外部に配置するようにしたもので、よりユーザーに近い場所での、左右方向風向変更羽根による風向制御が可能となり、快適性の向上につながるだけでなく、従来のような吹き出し口内部に左右方向風向変更羽根が搭載されている場合と異なり、左右方向風向変更羽根の両端に壁面が存在しなくなるために、左右への吹き分け角度を大きくとることが可能となる。 1st invention is equipped with the blowing port formed between the stabilizer and the rear guider, and the left-right direction wind direction change blade | wing which changes the left-right direction of the air which can be rotated and is blown off from the said blowing port, The whole direction wind direction changing blade is arranged outside the outlet, and it is possible to control the wind direction by the left and right direction wind direction changing blade in a place closer to the user, not only improving comfort, Unlike the case where the blades for changing the wind direction in the left and right direction are mounted inside the conventional outlet, there are no wall surfaces at both ends of the blades for changing the wind direction in the left and right direction. It becomes.

第２の発明は、特に、第１の発明の左右方向風向変更羽根を伸縮可能なリアガイダに設けたもので、運転時には、風向制御のために左右方向風向変更羽根は吹き出し口の外部に配置するが、運転停止時には、美観を損なわないようにするために本体内部に収納することが可能となる。また、左右方向風向変更羽根をリアガイダに設けることにより、特に、冷房時など重たい空気が吹き出し口から吹き出されるときに効果的に風向制御を行うことが出来る。 In the second invention, in particular, the left and right wind direction changing blades of the first invention are provided in a telescopic rear guider. During operation, the left and right wind direction changing blades are arranged outside the outlet for controlling the wind direction. However, when the operation is stopped, it can be stored in the main body so as not to impair the beauty. Further, by providing the left and right direction wind direction changing blades on the rear guider, it is possible to effectively control the wind direction particularly when heavy air is blown out from the outlet, such as during cooling.

第３の発明は、特に、第１の発明の左右方向風向変更羽根を伸縮可能なスタビライザに設けたもので、運転時には風向制御のために、左右方向風向変更羽根を吹き出し口の外部に配置するが、運転停止時には、美観を損なわないように左右方向風向変更羽根を本体内部に収納することが可能となる。また、スタビライザに設けることにより、特に暖房時など軽い空気が吹き出し口から吹き出されるときに効果的である。 In the third invention, the left and right direction wind direction changing blades of the first invention are provided in a stabilizer that can be expanded and contracted, and the left and right direction wind direction changing blades are arranged outside the outlet for controlling the wind direction during operation. However, when the operation is stopped, it is possible to store the right and left wind direction changing blades inside the main body so as not to impair the beauty. Further, the provision of the stabilizer is effective particularly when light air is blown out from the outlet, such as during heating.

第４の発明は、特に、第１の発明の吹き出し口内に位置する回動軸を中心に回動自在で前記吹き出し口から吹き出される空気の上下方向の向きを変更する上下方向風向変更羽根を備え、左右方向風向変更羽根を前記上下方向風向変更羽根上に設けたもので、左右方向風向変更羽根を吹き出し口外部に配置するための特別な部材を必要とせず、コストの削減につながるだけでなく、制御も容易となる。 In particular, the fourth aspect of the invention includes a vertical direction airflow changing vane that is rotatable about a rotation axis located in the outlet of the first aspect of the invention and that changes the vertical direction of the air blown from the outlet. Equipped with left and right direction wind direction change blades on the up and down direction wind direction change blades, and does not require a special member to arrange the left and right direction wind direction change blades outside the outlet, only leading to cost reduction And control becomes easy.

第５の発明は、特に、第１の発明の吹き出し口外に位置する回動軸を中心に回動自在で前記吹き出し口から吹き出される空気の上下方向の向きを変更する上下方向風向変更羽根を備え、左右方向風向変更羽根を前記上下方向風向変更羽根上に設けたもので、上下方向風向変更羽根の回動軸が吹き出し口内部に存在するときよりも、さらに前方での風向制御が可能となり、気流のコントロールが行いやすくなる。 In particular, the fifth aspect of the present invention includes a vertical direction airflow changing vane that is rotatable about a rotation shaft positioned outside the blowout port of the first invention and that changes the vertical direction of the air blown from the blowout port. Equipped with a left / right wind direction change vane on the up / down direction wind direction change vane, and it is possible to control the wind direction further forward than when the rotation axis of the up / down direction wind direction change blade exists inside the outlet. This makes it easier to control the airflow.

第６の発明は、特に、第４又は第５の発明の左右方向風向変更羽根を前後方向にスライド可能に設けたもので、左右方向風向変更羽根を前後にスライドさせることにより、運転停止時と運転時での左右方向風向変更羽根の位置を変更することが可能となり、運転停止時に上下方向風向変更羽根を閉じても、吹き出し口に搭載されている他の機能部品等と干渉しないように左右方向風向変更羽根を位置させることが出来る。 In the sixth aspect of the invention, in particular, the left and right direction wind direction changing blades of the fourth or fifth aspect of the invention are provided so as to be slidable in the front and rear direction. It is possible to change the position of the wind direction change blade in the left / right direction during operation, so that even if the wind direction change blade is closed during operation stop, the left / right direction does not interfere with other functional parts installed in the outlet. Directional wind direction changing blades can be positioned.

第７の発明は、特に、第５または第６の発明の上下方向風向変更羽根を変動可能な腕部を介して本体に取り付けたもので、上下方向風向変更羽根の配置位置の幅が広がるため、左右風向制御と合わせた気流コントロールが行いやすくなる。 In the seventh aspect of the invention, in particular, the vertical direction wind direction change blade of the fifth or sixth aspect is attached to the main body via a variable arm, and the width of the arrangement position of the vertical direction wind direction change blade is widened. Airflow control combined with left and right wind direction control becomes easier.

第８の発明は、特に、第１〜７のいずれか一つの発明の左右方向風向変更羽根を２つの上下方向風向変更羽根間に配置したもので、整流効果を高めると共に、左右方向風向変更羽根の上下が上下方向風向変更羽根で囲まれることにより、左右方向風向変更羽根を安定させることも出来る。 In the eighth aspect of the invention, in particular, the left and right direction wind direction change blades of any one of the first to seventh aspects are arranged between two up and down direction wind direction change blades. Since the upper and lower sides are surrounded by the vertical direction wind direction change blades, the horizontal direction wind direction change blades can also be stabilized.

第９の発明は、特に、第１〜８のいずれか一つの発明の左右方向風向変更羽根を取り付けた桟を複数設けたもので、左右方向風向変更羽根を各々独立して動かすことが出来るようになり、ある一点を狙うスポット気流、あるいは部屋全体に空気を送る拡散気流など、気流制御の幅が広がる。 In particular, the ninth invention is provided with a plurality of crosspieces to which the left and right direction wind direction changing blades of any one of the first to eighth aspects of the invention are attached, so that the left and right direction wind direction changing blades can be moved independently. Therefore, the range of airflow control is widened, such as a spot airflow aiming at a certain point, or a diffuse airflow that sends air to the entire room.

第１０の発明は、特に、第９の発明の複数の桟を、各々平行に配置しないようにしたもので、スポット気流、あるいは拡散気流などの気流制御がさらに行いやすくなる。 In the tenth aspect of the invention, in particular, the plurality of crosspieces of the ninth aspect of the invention are not arranged in parallel with each other, and air flow control such as spot air flow or diffusion air flow is further facilitated.

以下、本発明の実施の形態について、図面を参照しながら説明する。なお、下記実施の形態によって本発明が限定されるものではない。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In addition, this invention is not limited by the following embodiment.

（実施の形態１）
図１は、本発明の第１の実施の形態における空気調和機の室内機の断面図、図２（ａ）は、従来の空気調和機の室内機の左右方向風向変更羽根の位置を示す図、（ｂ）は、本実施の形態における空気調和機の室内機の左右方向風向変更羽根の位置を示す図である。 (Embodiment 1)
FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of an indoor unit of an air conditioner according to the first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2A is a diagram showing the position of a left-right direction airflow direction change blade of the indoor unit of a conventional air conditioner. (B) is a figure which shows the position of the left-right direction wind direction change blade | wing of the indoor unit of the air conditioner in this Embodiment.

図１において、空気調和機の室内機１は、送風ファン２と、熱交換器３と、スタビライザ４と、伸縮自在のリアガイダ５と、熱交換器３で熱交換された空気を吹き出す吹き出し口7と、吹き出し口7から吹き出される空気の左右方向の向きを変更する左右方向風向変更羽根６と、吹き出し口7から吹き出される空気の上下方向の向きを変更する上下方向風向変更羽根８と、熱交換器３の温度を検出する温度検出器（図示せず）と、マイクロコンピュータなどからなる制御手段（図示せず）を備えている。 In FIG. 1, an indoor unit 1 of an air conditioner includes a blower fan 2, a heat exchanger 3, a stabilizer 4, a telescopic rear guider 5, and a blowout port 7 for blowing out the air heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger 3. A left-right direction wind direction changing blade 6 that changes the left-right direction of the air blown out from the blowing port 7, and an up-down direction wind direction changing blade 8 that changes the up-down direction of the air blown from the blowing port 7, A temperature detector (not shown) for detecting the temperature of the heat exchanger 3 and a control means (not shown) including a microcomputer or the like are provided.

本実施の形態では、伸縮可能なリアガイダ５に左右方向風向変更羽根６を設けており、図１（ａ）に示すように、運転停止時には、吹き出し口７の内部に収納されていた左右方向風向羽根６が、運転時には、図１（ｂ）に示すように、リアガイダ５が前方に伸びて、それと共に左右方向風向変更羽根６全体が吹き出し口７の外部に配置される。 In the present embodiment, the expandable rear guider 5 is provided with the left-right direction wind direction change blade 6, and as shown in FIG. 1A, the left-right direction wind direction stored in the outlet 7 when the operation is stopped. When the blade 6 is in operation, as shown in FIG. 1B, the rear guider 5 extends forward, and at the same time, the entire left-right direction wind direction changing blade 6 is disposed outside the outlet 7.

このように左右方向風向変更羽根６が吹き出し口７の外部に配置されることにより、よりユーザーに近いところでの左右方向での風向制御が可能となり、快適な気流を生み出すことが可能となる。また、図２（ａ）に示すように、左右方向風向変更羽根６が吹き出し口７内部にある従来の空気調和機と異なり、図２（ｂ）に示すように左右方向風向変更羽根６を吹き出し口７の外部に配置することにより壁面１ｂから開放されるため、羽根角度を、従来よりもより大きく左右に向けることが可能となり、より広角に風を吹き出すことが出来る。 As described above, the left and right direction wind direction changing blades 6 are arranged outside the air outlet 7, so that it is possible to control the wind direction in the left and right direction closer to the user and to generate a comfortable airflow. Also, as shown in FIG. 2 (a), unlike the conventional air conditioner in which the left and right direction wind direction changing blade 6 is inside the outlet 7, the left and right direction wind direction changing blade 6 is blown out as shown in FIG. 2 (b). Since it is opened from the wall surface 1b by disposing it outside the mouth 7, the blade angle can be directed to the left and right more than before, and the wind can be blown out at a wider angle.

特に、冷房時には送風ファン２より吹き出る風が重いために、リアガイダ５に沿って流れやすくなり、この実施の形態による効果は大きくなる。なお、ここで吹き出し口７とは運転停止時にスタビライザ４とリアガイダ５によって挟まれている領域（図１および図２の点線より本体１ａ側の領域）を指す。 In particular, since the air blown from the blower fan 2 is heavy during cooling, the air easily flows along the rear guider 5, and the effect of this embodiment is increased. Here, the air outlet 7 refers to a region (region on the main body 1a side from the dotted line in FIGS. 1 and 2) sandwiched between the stabilizer 4 and the rear guider 5 when the operation is stopped.

（実施の形態２）
図３は、本発明の第２の実施の形態における空気調和機の室内機の断面図である。尚、上記第１の実施の形態における空気調和機の室内機と同一部分については、同一符号を付してその説明を省略する。 (Embodiment 2)
FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of an indoor unit of an air conditioner according to the second embodiment of the present invention. In addition, about the same part as the indoor unit of the air conditioner in the said 1st Embodiment, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

本実施の形態は、スタビライザ４を伸縮自在にし、その伸縮自在なスタビライザ４に左右方向風向変更羽根６を設けたもので、図３（ａ）は、空気調和機の室内機１の運転停止時で、左右方向風向変更羽根６が吹き出し口７内に収納された状態を示し、図３（ｂ）は、運転時にスタビライザ４が外方に伸びて、左右方向風向変更羽根６全体が吹き出し口７の外部に配置された状態を示している。 In the present embodiment, the stabilizer 4 is extendable and retractable, and the retractable stabilizer 4 is provided with the left and right wind direction changing blades 6. FIG. 3 (a) shows when the operation of the indoor unit 1 of the air conditioner is stopped. FIG. 3B shows a state in which the left / right direction wind direction changing blade 6 is housed in the outlet 7, and FIG. 3 (b) shows that the stabilizer 4 extends outward during operation, and the entire left / right direction wind direction changing blade 6 is the outlet 7. The state arrange | positioned outside is shown.

以上のように、本実施の形態によれば、上記第１の実施の形態と同様、快適な気流を生み出すことが可能となるだけでなく、より広角に風を吹き出すことが出来る。特に暖房時にはファンより吹き出る風が軽いためにスタビライザに沿って流れやすくなり、この実施の形態による効果は大きくなる。 As described above, according to the present embodiment, it is possible not only to generate a comfortable airflow, but also to blow out the wind at a wider angle, as in the first embodiment. In particular, since the air blown from the fan is light during heating, it tends to flow along the stabilizer, and the effect of this embodiment is increased.

（実施の形態３）
図４は、本発明の第３の実施の形態における空気調和機の室内機の断面図である。尚、上記実施の形態における空気調和機の室内機と同一部分については、同一符号を付してそ
の説明を省略する。 (Embodiment 3)
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of an indoor unit of an air conditioner according to the third embodiment of the present invention. In addition, about the same part as the indoor unit of the air conditioner in the said embodiment, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

本実施の形態は、図４に示すように、吹き出し口７内に設けた回動軸８ａを中心に回動する上下方向風向変更羽根８に、前後方向にスライド可能な左右方向風向変更羽根６を搭載したものである。 In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, a horizontal wind direction change blade 6 that can be slid in the front-rear direction on a vertical direction wind direction change blade 8 that rotates about a rotation shaft 8 a provided in the outlet 7. Is installed.

本実施の形態では、図４に示すように、左右方向風向変更羽根６を上下方向風向変更羽根８の下面に搭載しているが、このような構成とすることにより、特に、暖房時などで空気が上昇しやすい場合に、上下方向風向変更羽根８で暖気を下に押し付けつつ、左右方向風向変更羽根６での左右への風向制御が行いやすくなる。 In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the left and right direction wind direction change blades 6 are mounted on the lower surface of the up and down direction wind direction change blades 8. When air is likely to rise, it is easy to control the air direction to the left and right with the left and right direction wind direction changing blade 6 while pressing the warm air downward with the up and down direction wind direction changing blade 8.

反対に、冷房時には空気が下降しやすいため、図２とは、逆に、上下方向風向変更羽根８の上面に左右方向風向変更羽根６を搭載すると上下・左右ともに風向制御が行いやすくなる。さらには、特に、図示しないが、左右方向風向変更羽根６を、上下方向風向変更羽根８の上下両面に配置しても良く、この場合には、上下の左右方向風向変更羽根６を異なる向きに配置することにより、上下方向風向変更羽根８の上下で風向を変えることが出来る。 On the other hand, since air tends to descend during cooling, conversely to FIG. 2, if the left and right wind direction changing blades 6 are mounted on the upper surface of the up and down direction wind direction changing blades 8, it becomes easier to control the wind direction both vertically and horizontally. Further, although not particularly shown, the left and right direction wind direction changing blades 6 may be arranged on both upper and lower sides of the up and down direction wind direction changing blade 8. In this case, the upper and lower left and right direction wind direction changing blades 6 are arranged in different directions. By arranging, the wind direction can be changed up and down the up-and-down direction wind direction changing blade 8.

尚、前後のスライドとは、斜め前後へのスライドも含むのは言うまでもない。 In addition, it cannot be overemphasized that the slide to the back and front also includes the slide to the back and front diagonally.

（実施の形態４）
図５は、本発明の第４の実施の形態における空気調和機の室内機の断面図である。尚、上記実施の形態における空気調和機の室内機と同一部分については、同一符号を付してその説明を省略する。 (Embodiment 4)
FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of an indoor unit of an air conditioner according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention. In addition, about the same part as the indoor unit of the air conditioner in the said embodiment, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

本実施の形態は、図５に示すように、変動自在で、一端に、上下方向風向変更羽根８を回動自在に設けた腕部９を本体１ａに取り付け、同時に、左右方向風向変更羽根６を、上下方向風向変更羽根８にスライド可能に設けたものである。 In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the arm 9 having a vertically movable wind direction changing blade 8 rotatably attached to one end is attached to the main body 1a as shown in FIG. Is slidably provided on the vertical direction wind direction changing blade 8.

以上のように、本実施の形態によれば、腕部９を介して、上下方向風向変更羽根８を使用することにより、上下方向風向変更羽根８の位置の自由度が従来に比べて増すために、上下方向風向変更羽根８自体をよりユーザー側に配置できるだけでなく、冷房・暖房によっても、上下方向風向変更羽根８の位置・角度等を変更できるため、気流コントロールが行いやすくなる。また、左右方向風向変更羽根６をより前方に配置できるようになるため、空気も広角に吹き出すことが容易となる。ここで、腕部９の形状・配置は問わないのは言うまでもない。 As described above, according to the present embodiment, by using the up / down direction wind direction changing blade 8 via the arm portion 9, the degree of freedom of the position of the up / down direction wind direction changing blade 8 is increased as compared with the prior art. In addition, not only can the vertical direction wind direction change blades 8 themselves be arranged on the user side, but also the position and angle of the vertical direction wind direction change blades 8 can be changed by cooling and heating. Moreover, since the left-right direction wind direction changing blade 6 can be disposed further forward, air can be easily blown out at a wide angle. Here, it goes without saying that the shape and arrangement of the arm portion 9 are not limited.

（実施の形態５）
図６は、本発明の第５の実施の形態における空気調和機の室内機の断面図である。尚、上記第４の実施の形態における空気調和機の室内機と同一部分については、同一符号を付してその説明を省略する。 (Embodiment 5)
FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view of an indoor unit of an air conditioner according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention. In addition, about the same part as the indoor unit of the air conditioner in the said 4th Embodiment, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

本実施の形態は、図６に示すように、左右方向風向変更羽根６の下方に、第２の上下方向風向変更羽根であるサブフラップ１０を設けて、左右方向風向変更羽根６を、上下方向風向変更羽根８とサブフラップ１０の２枚の上下羽根間に配置するものである。従来の空気調和機においては、上下への風向特性向上のためにサブフラップを用いた２段形状の上下羽根を使用した例もあるが、本実施の形態のように、その間に可動式の左右方向風向変更羽根６を配置することにより、上下の風向特性だけでなく左右の風向特性も向上する。さらには左右方向風向変更羽根６が上下で固定されるため、左右方向風向変更羽根６自体も安定する。 In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, a sub-flap 10 that is a second vertical direction wind direction change blade is provided below the horizontal direction wind direction change blade 6, and the horizontal direction wind direction change blade 6 is set in the vertical direction. It is arranged between the two upper and lower blades of the wind direction changing blade 8 and the sub flap 10. In a conventional air conditioner, there is an example in which two-stage upper and lower blades using a sub-flap are used to improve the wind direction characteristics in the vertical direction. By arranging the direction wind direction changing blades 6, not only the upper and lower wind direction characteristics but also the left and right wind direction characteristics are improved. Furthermore, since the left and right direction wind direction changing blades 6 are fixed vertically, the left and right direction wind direction changing blades 6 themselves are also stable.

（実施の形態６）
図７（ａ）は、本発明の第６の実施の形態における空気調和機の室内機の上下方向風向変更羽根と左右方向風向変更羽根を上から見た図である。尚、上記実施の形態における空気調和機の室内機と同一部分については、同一符号を付してその説明を省略する。 (Embodiment 6)
Fig.7 (a) is the figure which looked at the up-down direction wind direction change blade | wing and left-right direction wind direction change blade | wing of the indoor unit of the air conditioner in the 6th Embodiment of this invention from the top. In addition, about the same part as the indoor unit of the air conditioner in the said embodiment, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

本実施の形態は、図７（ａ）に示すように、上下方向風向変更羽根８を変動可能な腕部９を介して本体１ａに取り付けると共に、その上下方向風向変更羽根８の左右に、それぞれ桟１１を用いた左右方向風向変更羽根６を分割して設け、それぞれの左右方向風向変更羽根６を独立して駆動させるようにしたものである。 In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7 (a), the vertical direction wind direction change blade 8 is attached to the main body 1a via a variable arm portion 9, and the vertical direction wind direction change blade 8 is provided to the left and right of the vertical direction wind direction change blade 8, respectively. The horizontal direction wind direction change blades 6 using the crosspiece 11 are divided and provided, and the respective horizontal direction wind direction change blades 6 are driven independently.

このように左右方向風向変更羽根６を左右独立で稼働させ、例えば、図７（ａ）に示すように、左右方向風向変更羽根６のそれぞれの羽根６ａを外側に向けるようにすれば、空気を広角に吹き出すことが可能となる。反対に、左右方向風向変更羽根６のそれぞれの羽根６ａを内側に向けることにより、一点を狙ったスポット気流を生み出しやすくなる。 In this way, the left and right direction wind direction changing blades 6 are operated independently, and, for example, as shown in FIG. 7 (a), if each of the left and right direction wind direction changing blades 6 is directed outward, It becomes possible to blow out to a wide angle. On the other hand, by directing the respective blades 6a of the left and right direction wind direction changing blades 6 to the inside, it becomes easier to generate a spot airflow aimed at one point.

さらには、図７（ｂ）に示すように、４本の桟１１を用いて、同図に示すような羽根角度とすることにより、２点へのスポット気流も可能となる。ここで、桟１１の使用本数に限度はないのは言うまでもない。 Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 7B, a spot airflow to two points is also possible by using four crosspieces 11 and a blade angle as shown in the figure. Here, it goes without saying that there is no limit to the number of bars 11 used.

上記第６の実施の形態では、左右の桟１１を、水平に設けたが、本実施の形態は、左右の桟１１を平行にしないようにするもので、例えば、図８に示すように、左右の桟１１を略Ｖ字状に配したものである。 In the sixth embodiment, the left and right crosspieces 11 are provided horizontally. However, in this embodiment, the left and right crosspieces 11 are not arranged in parallel. For example, as shown in FIG. The left and right crosspieces 11 are arranged in a substantially V shape.

このように、左右の左右方向風向変更羽根６の桟１１を略Ｖ字型とすることにより、上記第６の実施の形態よりもさらにスポット気流の効果が得られる。なお、左右方向風向変更羽根６の桟１１の配置形状はＶ字型に限らず、それぞれが平行に配置されていなければよいことは言うまでもない。 Thus, by making the crosspiece 11 of the left and right direction wind direction changing blades 6 substantially V-shaped, the effect of the spot airflow can be obtained more than in the sixth embodiment. Needless to say, the arrangement shape of the crosspieces 11 of the left and right direction wind direction changing blades 6 is not limited to the V shape, and it is not necessary to arrange them in parallel.

ここで、本発明において、左右方向風向変更羽根６の羽根６ａの枚数、サイズ、形状、もしくは上下方向風向変更羽根８の形状等は問わない。さらには、これら左右方向風向変更羽根６、上下方向風向変更羽根８の羽根の制御方法に関して問わないことは言うまでもない。また、個々の左右方向風向変更羽根６同士を連結する桟１１の取り付け位置に関しても、特に限定するものでは無い。 Here, in the present invention, the number, size and shape of the blades 6a of the left and right direction wind direction changing blades 6 or the shape of the up and down direction wind direction changing blades 8 are not limited. Furthermore, it goes without saying that the method of controlling the blades of the left-right direction wind direction changing blade 6 and the up-down direction wind direction changing blade 8 is not questioned. Moreover, it does not specifically limit also about the attachment position of the crosspiece 11 which connects each left-right direction wind direction change blade | wing 6 mutually.

以上のように、本発明にかかる空気調和機の室内機は、従来よりも快適な気流を生み出すことができるもので、可動な左右方向風向変更羽根を持つ空気調和機の室内機において有用である。 As described above, the indoor unit for an air conditioner according to the present invention is capable of producing a more comfortable airflow than before, and is useful in an indoor unit for an air conditioner having movable left and right direction airflow direction change blades. .
