The specific embodiment
With reference to the accompanying drawings air-conditioner according to the preferred embodiment of the invention is described in detail.
Fig. 2 schematically shows the indoor unit according to air-conditioner of the present invention.That is, Fig. 2 has shown the outward appearance of indoor unit.
With reference to Fig. 2, air-conditioner comprises indoor unit 50 and outdoor unit (not shown).Form last-below upwards long face glass unit 100 be arranged on the place, front of indoor unit 50, be used to limit the outward appearance of the front of indoor unit 50.
Simultaneously, a plurality of patterns are formed on the front of face glass unit 100, that is, as shown in Figure 2, be formed at admirably on the front of face glass unit 100 such as the multiple image of design.
Fig. 3 shows the decomposition diagram of face glass unit 100.
As shown in Figure 3, face glass unit 100 comprises transparent armorplate glass 120, be bonded at the printed film 130 of the back of armorplate glass 120, be located at armorplate glass 120 the back bunting and be used to support the glass support plate 150 of armorplate glass 120.
In more detail, decorative pattern 122 and 124 comprises the front pattern 122 of the front that is transferred to armorplate glass 120 and is transferred to the back pattern 124 of the back of armorplate glass 120.Can use front pattern 122 or back pattern 124 separately herein.
Printed film 130 is the printing thin slices that are bonded at the back of armorplate glass 120.Printed film 130 is corresponding with armorplate glass 120 on length.That is, printed film 130 the right-hand member place of the back of armorplate glass 120 form last-below upwards long.
A plurality of button printed portions 134 are printed on the bottom that shows hole 132.As depicted in figure 3, button printed portions 134 is by the character that uses different shape or each function (will illustrate below) that symbol comes the Show Button assembly 170.
In more detail, each button printed portions 134 comprises and is the light hop 134a on annulus limit and is arranged among the light hop 134a and is printed on character or symbol printed portions 134b thereon.Light hop 134a must be transparent, with transmission light.Printed portions 134b can be a partially transparent or opaque.Therefore, the user can carry out operations necessary based on the character or the symbol that are imprinted on the button printed portions 134.
Bunting 140 is located at the place, left side of printed film 130.Bunting 140 is to make and be used as the cloth of the material of clothes or sheet with yarn, and is bonded to the back of armorplate glass 120.Therefore, the size sum of bunting 140 and printed film 130 equals the size of armorplate glass 120.
Perhaps, bunting 140 dimensionally can be corresponding with armorplate glass 120.In this case, bunting 140 can be positioned at the back of armorplate glass 120 and printed film 130.Here, the printed film 130 in the right side of bunting 140 is hidden, thereby is invisible on direction forward.
A plurality of supports 160,162,164 and 166 are arranged on the edge of glass support plate 150.Support 160,162,164 and 166 is used for armorplate glass 120 is fixed to glass support plate 150.Support 160,162,164 and 166 comprises the left side that is used for fixing glass support plate 150 and armorplate glass 120 and the left socle 160 and the right support 162 on right side, and the top-support 164 and the bottom bracket 166 that are used for the top and the bottom of support glass gripper shoe 150 and armorplate glass 120.
Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 show the detailed construction of button part 114.That is, Fig. 4 shows the perspective view of button part 114, and Fig. 5 shows the front view of the button part 114 of Fig. 4.
With reference to Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, a plurality of button assemblies 170 with soft-touch control function are arranged on button part 114 places.
Each button assembly 170 comprises energized conductor 172, be used for optionally luminous button LED 174 and the guiding piece 176 of the scattering of light that is used to prevent produced by button LED 174.
In more detail, button assembly 170 is formed on a plurality of circuit and is formed on wherein the circuit board 190.The supporting guide spare of trellis 192 forms on the front of circuit board 190 and is forwards projecting upwards.A plurality of guiding pieces 176 are formed in the supporting guide spare 192.
Guiding piece 176 forwards upwards from the previous section of circuit board 190 give prominence to.As shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5, guiding piece 176 forms and has the cylindrical of circular cross-section.Guiding piece 176 is positioned at the place, back of button printed portions 134.
Guiding piece 176 is set to most.That is, a plurality of (for example six) guiding piece 176 is formed in the trellis supporting guide spare 192.The light that guiding piece 176 is used for sending from button LED 174 be directed to forwards to and not with light scattering to outside (top of Fig. 5, bottom, the left side and the right).
Simultaneously, button LED 174 is optionally luminous.In more detail, when human body touch button printed portions 134, the current signal that control section 116 receives from conductor 172, and control button LED 174 is luminous.This state keeps one section preset time.Perhaps, button LED174 can be with the mode of operation collaborative work of the operation of remote controllers (not shown) or air-conditioner and is luminous.
The operation of the air-conditioner with above-mentioned structure is described now.
Since identical according to the basic operation of air-conditioner of the present invention with general air-conditioner, therefore will omit the explanation of overall operation state.That is, identical with general air-conditioner, air-conditioner according to the present invention has the basic function of optionally freezing or heating.
Therefore, the air of the interior space is inhaled into by the left side and the right side of the Lower Half of indoor unit 50, carries out heat exchange by the heat exchanger (not shown), and is discharged to the interior space.
Face glass unit 100 can (from the top) be opened by pivoting in the clockwise direction around panel hinge 102.
Simultaneously, display unit 110 shows the running status or the out of Memory of air-conditioner outside.Being presented at outer information by display part 112 is to control according to the order of control section 116.
According to the present invention, implement push button function in the mode of soft-touch control.That is, the operation of air-conditioner is to control according to the signal of telecommunication that the contact by human body produces.Therefore, when the user with he/during button printed portions 134 on her front of finger touch face glass unit 100, the contact by human body produces operation signal, makes the operation of control section 116 control air-conditioners.
When the front of human body contact button printed portions 134, corresponding button printed portions 134 brightens.That is, when the user with he/during her finger touch button printed portions 134, conductor 172 is because the electric current of human body and charged plays the effect of switch.Like this, button LED 174 is powered luminous.
In addition, the light that is produced by button LED 174 is only forwards upwards shining.That is,, surrounds a plurality of LED 174 because being directed part 176, so the light that is produced by button LED 174 can not scatter to the outside, but in upwards irradiation forwards.As a result, light can not shine contiguous button, but can illuminate the front of the button that human body touches, and makes the user can easily recognize action button.
Although described the preferred embodiments of the present invention, should be understood that, the invention is not restricted to these preferred embodiments, but in desired the spirit and scope of the invention, can make multiple change and modification by those skilled in the art.
Industrial applicibility
According to the present invention, has the face glass of the decorative pattern that is transferred to the various shapes on it The unit defines the outward appearance of the front of air-conditioner. Button with soft-touch control function is arranged on glass Therefore glass panel unit place has improved the overall appearance of air-conditioner.
According to the present invention, be used for luminous LED and be arranged on the button assembly place. Send from LED Light can not scatter to the outside, but shine in forward direction. Therefore, even in dark In the environment, the user is action button easily also. Because light is outwards scattering not, so user's energy More clearly recognize corresponding button.
In addition, user's operating air conditioner device easily.
