FIG. 1 is an external perspective view showing an embodiment of an air conditioner with an air purifier according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the same part. As shown in the figure, the inside of a housing 1 is divided into right and left by a partition wall 2, and an indoor heat exchanger 6 is provided on one side in an air passage 5 connecting an inlet 3 on a front surface and an outlet 4 on a lower surface. Air conditioner 8 provided with 7
On the other hand, an air purifier 18 provided with an air purifying unit 16 and a blower 17 is disposed in an air passage 15 connecting the upper surface suction port 13 and the lower surface outlet 14.
And the air purifier 18 can be operated independently or simultaneously. Therefore, the air conditioner 8 can be operated efficiently without being affected by the air cleaner 18, and the air cleaner 18 can be efficiently operated without being affected by the air conditioner 8. it can.

The partition 2 has an opening 2a,
When facing the opening 2a, as shown in FIG.
An opening / closing door 9 that opens and closes by the rotation of the motor 33 is provided, and by opening the opening / closing door 9, the room air sucked from the suction port 3 passes through the indoor heat exchanger 6 to be harmonized, and the air is blown from the blowout port 4. Along with returning to the room, a part of the conditioned air is sucked into the air purifier 18 side, the conditioned air is purified by passing through the air cleaning unit, and then returned to the room from the lower surface outlet 14. ing.

As shown in FIG. 2 (c), an opening / closing panel 19 which is opened and closed by the rotation of a motor 22 is provided in the suction port 13 of the air purifier 18, and the opening / closing panel 19 is closed, and By opening the opening / closing door 9, suction of air from the suction port 13 is eliminated, and conditioned air from the opening / closing door 9 can be sucked. Further, as shown in FIG. 2D, the opening / closing door 9 and the opening / closing panel 19 may be linked by a link rod 10, and when the opening / closing panel 19 is closed, the opening / closing door 9 may be opened. . FIG. 3 is a sectional view of a main part showing an embodiment of an air conditioner with an air purifier according to the present invention. As shown in the figure,
By closing the open / close panel 19 and opening the open / close door 9, the conditioned air that has passed through the indoor heat exchanger 6 can be sent to the air purifier for purification.

Further, by providing a deodorizing filter 20 at the air outlet 14 of the air purifier 18, the indoor heat exchanger 6 is provided.
And the conditioned air with the odor of the indoor heat exchanger 6 can be deodorized.

[0013]
