In recent years, air conditioners have
Especially, from the viewpoint of global environmental protection, we are rapidly promoting energy saving to tackle environmental issues. In order to address this energy-saving problem, conventional indoor units are working to increase the amount of heat exchangers installed. However, this approach increases the depth of the indoor unit and the height of the indoor unit main body, increases the size of the indoor unit, and has a problem that the feature of wall hanging which lacks compactness and has good interior characteristics is disappearing. .

[0004] In addition, in the case of the proposal, the suction opening is formed on the lower surface or the rear surface, the suction area is small, and the mounting amount of the heat exchanger is V-shaped. There is a problem that it is difficult to configure an efficient indoor unit main body because the contribution ratio at which the capability is increased is poor and the indoor unit is not compact.

[0005] The housing industry has also been making efforts to significantly improve the hermetic insulation structure of the house in response to environmental issues, to develop a highly airtight and highly insulated house, and to reduce the heat loss during air conditioning as much as possible. In such a house, the heat load at the start of cooling and heating is large, but once the temperature reaches the predetermined temperature, the carcass heat can be stored on the floor, wall, ceiling of the house,
The operation of cooling and heating can be performed with a small capacity, and a comfortable environment can be created only by supplying a predetermined small capacity. When a conventional indoor unit is operated in such a house, there is a problem that many people feel uncomfortable at the time of startup because the blowing wind is strong and the user feels unpleasant at the time of startup. In order to reduce the capacity of the machine, there is a problem that a low blowing temperature is blown out in the heating operation and the user feels a cool air feeling.

[0006] Also, indoor units of air conditioners in cold regions are typically floor-standing and wall-mounted types. The floor-standing has good heating comfort but requires a place for installation on the floor. There was a problem that the space became smaller. In addition, the wall-mounted type has a problem in that since warm air is generated from a place close to the ceiling, the warm air does not reach the floor surface and a sense of cool air is felt.

In the temperature distribution of the operation of the indoor unit placed on the floor shown in FIG. 7 (c), the heating feeling for the user is high even with partial heating because the heating outlet is located near the user. However, since the indoor unit is located close to the user due to the heating by blowing air, unnecessary high-temperature feeling after the room temperature rises and the low blown wind easily hits the user due to the reduced capacity at the time of stability and it is uncomfortable with the feeling of cold wind There are not a few opinions. There is also a fundamental problem that the living area of a narrow Japanese house is further reduced because it is installed on the floor.
