Description

  The present invention relates to a vehicle air conditioner that is mounted on a vehicle and performs air conditioning in a passenger compartment, and a railway vehicle equipped with the vehicle air conditioner, and more particularly to a vehicle air conditioner that reduces vibration propagating in a vehicle body and a rail vehicle equipped with the vehicle It is.

  Conventionally, various vehicle air conditioners that are installed in vehicles such as trains and perform air conditioning in passenger cabins have been proposed. In many of such vehicle air conditioners, a plurality of indoor heat exchangers are arranged on the ceiling of the vehicle body, and an indoor fan is arranged between the indoor heat exchangers. In general, the air cooled by the indoor heat exchanger is sucked by the indoor blower, and the sucked air is blown out from an air conditioning duct provided directly under the indoor blower to air-condition the cabin. .

  As such, “a space unit disposed on the roof of the vehicle, a cool air that is cooled by heat exchange with the indoor heat exchanger of this space unit, or a hot air that has been heated is passed through a plurality of vehicle ceiling ducts. A plurality of indoor sides that discharge into the vehicle compartment and air-condition the vehicle compartment and that are arranged to face each of the plurality of vehicle ceiling ducts and distribute the cold air or warm air to the vehicle ceiling ducts. A vehicle air conditioner provided with a fan has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  This vehicle air conditioner distributes cold air or hot air to a plurality of vehicle ceiling ducts, and can distribute the cold air or hot air to each vehicle duct for the time being without complicated adjustment, and The static pressure of the indoor fan is lowered so that the height of the indoor fan can be lowered. In addition, this vehicle air conditioner is attached to the roof of the vehicle via a seal packing.

  Further, “an indoor heat exchanger that is disposed on the vehicle roof and performs heat exchange of air in the vehicle interior, an indoor fan that sends out air that has been heat exchanged in the indoor heat exchanger as cold air or hot air, An air conditioning apparatus for a vehicle comprising a wind duct that distributes cool air or warm air sent out by an indoor fan in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle and discharges it into the vehicle interior, wherein the indoor fan is disposed opposite to the wind duct In addition, a vehicle air conditioner attached to the shaft of an indoor fan motor that is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the air distribution duct has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

  In this vehicle air conditioner, a fan that sends out air that has been heat-exchanged by an indoor heat exchanger as cold air or hot air is disposed opposite to an air distribution duct that guides the cold air or hot air into the vehicle interior. It is attached to the shaft of the indoor fan motor that is parallel to the longitudinal direction of this air distribution duct, and the space occupied by the main body of the vehicle air conditioner on the vehicle roof, especially the height, is kept small, while supplying sufficient cold or hot air. The air volume can be obtained, and the circulation fan directly under the main body can be mounted sufficiently and safely within the limits of a regular arc-shaped vehicle limit ruler.

  Furthermore, “the indoor fan of the air conditioner is attached to the ceiling on the vehicle body side, and the cooling air is blown out straight in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body. According to this, a small fan with a smaller outer diameter of the impeller than in the past can be obtained. A railway vehicle that can be used, can reduce noise in the vehicle, and can reduce the power consumption of the indoor blower has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 3). This railway vehicle reduces the ventilation resistance of the blowout part of the indoor blower, improves the flow of cooling air, and distributes the air uniformly in the car with a small fan with low noise, so that the noise in the car and the indoor fan The power consumption is reduced.

  And, “A room blower is placed between the evaporators, the air cooled by the evaporators is sucked and blown out to the air conditioning duct immediately below, and the wind of the blowout part once hits the bottom surface of the air conditioning duct and then at a right angle There has been proposed a vehicle air conditioner in which a guide plate is provided on the air conditioning duct side for the purpose of reducing the draft resistance due to this right-angled bending by flowing in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body (for example, non-patent document). 1). This vehicle air conditioner is configured to bend at a right angle and flow in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle after the wind of the blowout portion hits the bottom surface of the air conditioning duct.

  In such a vehicle air conditioner, a guide plate is generally provided on the side of the air conditioning duct installed on the vehicle side for the purpose of reducing the ventilation resistance due to this right-angle bending. Further, it has been generally performed that a vehicle air conditioner is attached to the vehicle body via a vibration isolating rubber so that vibrations generated by the vehicle air conditioner are not propagated to the vehicle. Further, a seal packing is installed at the joint between the vehicle and the vehicle air conditioner, and the flow path of the circulating air is usually made airtight.

JP 62-125912 (page 5-7, Fig. 1) JP-A-3-217316 (page 5-7, FIG. 1) Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-347617 (page 5-7, FIG. 1) “Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Handbook III, Air Conditioning Deviation”, January 1, 2001 (Pages 229-238)

  In railway vehicles and vehicle air conditioners equipped with the air conditioners described above, the air blown out from the air blowout ports of the indoor blowers constituting the vehicle air conditioner temporarily expands temporarily to the air conditioning duct installed in the vehicle. It hits the provided guide plate, changes its direction of flow, and flows to an air conditioning duct installed in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. In other words, when the air blown from the air outlet of the indoor blower hits the guide plate provided in the air conditioning duct of the vehicle, the guide plate vibrates and the ceiling of the vehicle body where the air conditioning duct is installed vibrates. There was a problem.

  In order to solve the problem, the strength against the vibration of the air blown out from the air outlet of the indoor blower, for example, the guide plate, the ceiling plate, the floor plate, etc. is strengthened, and those portions are not vibrated. There was a need to do. In other words, in order to prevent vibrations from propagating to the vehicle body, the strength of the parts where the blown air collides must be strengthened, and the vibrations generated when these parts collide with the blown air must be suppressed. .

  Moreover, since the guide plate is installed in the air conditioning duct of the vehicle body, it is necessary to provide a predetermined gap so as not to interfere with the air outlet of the indoor blower constituting the vehicle air conditioner. For this reason, the air blown out from the air outlet of the indoor blower once suddenly expands and then changes the direction of flow through the guide plate, resulting in an increase in ventilation resistance. This problem sometimes developed into a problem that the air flow was deteriorated and the air was not distributed to the end of the air conditioning duct.

  In such a case, the air must be distributed to the end of the air conditioning duct by increasing the blowing pressure of the indoor blower. However, in order to increase the blowing pressure, it is necessary to increase the outer diameter of the impeller or increase the rotational speed of the fan motor, which increases the noise of the indoor fan and increases the noise in the vehicle. There was also a problem. In recent years, it is also necessary to consider that the level of demand for noise reduction from passengers has become very high.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and suppresses vibrations generated by collision of air blown out by an indoor blower and reduces vibrations propagating to the vehicle body. It provides a railway vehicle equipped with it. In addition, the present invention can reduce the ventilation resistance of the blowout part of the indoor blower and improve the flow of air, so that the air can be distributed inside the vehicle with a small indoor blower, and both the noise in the vehicle and the power consumption of the motor can be reduced. The present invention provides a vehicle air conditioner to be reduced and a railway vehicle equipped with the same.

  A vehicle air conditioner according to the present invention is a vehicle air conditioner mounted on a roof of a vehicle, and includes a main body including at least an indoor blower for blowing air into the vehicle, and air blown from the indoor blower. And a guide plate that changes a flow direction, and the guide plate is attached to the main body so as to be positioned below the indoor fan.

  A vehicle air conditioner according to the present invention is a vehicle air conditioner mounted under the floor of a vehicle, and includes a main body including at least an indoor fan for blowing air into the vehicle, and a flow of air blown from the indoor fan. And a guide plate for changing the direction, and the guide plate is attached to the main body so as to be positioned above the indoor fan.

  A vehicle air conditioner according to the present invention is a vehicle air conditioner mounted on a roof of a vehicle, and includes a main body having at least an indoor blower for blowing air into the vehicle, and air blown from the indoor blower. Since the guide plate is attached to the main body so as to be positioned below the indoor fan, the vibration generated when the air blown from the indoor fan collides with the guide plate is applied to the vehicle body. Direct propagation can be prevented. That is, since the guide plate is attached to the vehicle air conditioner, the vibration generated by the guide plate propagates to the vehicle air conditioner and does not directly propagate to the vehicle body.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
Embodiment 1 FIG.
FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view showing a schematic configuration of a vehicle air conditioner 10 (main body) according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. Based on FIG. 1, the structure of the vehicle air conditioner 10 is demonstrated. The vehicle air conditioner 10 is mounted on the roof of the vehicle body 20 (vehicle) on the side surface via a vibration isolating rubber 30. In addition, in the following drawings including FIG. 1, the relationship of the size of each component may be different from the actual one.

  The vehicle air conditioner 10 has a bottom plate 19 formed on the bottom surface, and includes an indoor fan 11, an indoor heat exchanger 12a, and an indoor heat exchanger 12b. The indoor blower 11 takes in air and blows out the air. The indoor heat exchanger 12a and the indoor heat exchanger 12b exchange heat with the air taken in by the indoor blower 11, and use the air as cold air or hot air (see FIG. 3). The bottom plate 19 is opened at a portion corresponding to the outlet of the air blown out from the indoor blower 11 so that the air flows to the vehicle body 20 side.

  In addition, a guide plate 16 is installed below the opened portion of the bottom plate 19. That is, the guide plate 16 is provided in the vehicle air conditioner 10. This guide plate 16 changes the direction in which the air blown out from the indoor blower 11 flows. That is, the air blown out from the indoor blower 11 collides with the guide plate 16, the flow direction is changed, and the air flows in the longitudinal direction (front-rear direction) of the vehicle body 20. The indoor blower 11 is not particularly limited as long as it can take in and blow out air. For example, a centrifugal fan such as a sirocco fan, a turbo fan, or a paddle fan may be used for the indoor blower 11.

  A duct 22 for forming an air passage for air blown out from the indoor blower 11 is provided in the vehicle ceiling portion 26 of the vehicle body 20. On both side surfaces of the duct 22, grills 23 are formed for blowing air into the vehicle interior 25 such as a cabin. Further, the filter device 21 is installed on both side surfaces of the vehicle ceiling portion 57. When the indoor blower 11 sucks air from the vehicle interior 25, the filter device 21 filters the air to remove dust, dust, and the like.

  When the vehicle air conditioner 10 is attached to the vehicle body 20, a gap may be formed between the bottom plate 19 of the vehicle air conditioner 10 and the roof 27. Therefore, a seal packing 40 is provided between the bottom plate 19 and the roof 27 to prevent rainwater from entering. A seal packing 41 for preventing leakage of air flowing through the duct 22 is provided between the bottom plate 19 and the vehicle ceiling portion 26. That is, the seal packing 41 reduces the loss (loss) of the air blown out from the grill 23 into the vehicle interior 25.

  FIG. 2 is a main side view showing a state in which the vehicle air conditioner 10 is mounted on the roof of the vehicle body 20. Based on FIG. 2, the flow of the air blown out from the indoor blower 11 will be described. The vehicle air conditioner 10 takes in air from the vehicle interior 25 with the indoor blower 11, converts the air into cold air or hot air with the indoor heat exchanger 12a and the indoor heat exchanger 12b, and blows it out. Here, the case where two indoor blower outlets 11a and indoor blower outlets 11b are incorporated is shown as an example.

  The air blown out from the indoor blower outlet 11a and the indoor blower outlet 11b first collides with the guide plate 16a and the guide plate 16b installed in the vehicle air conditioner 10. The guide plate 16a is installed with respect to the indoor blower outlet 11a, and the guide plate 16b is shown as an example when installed with respect to the indoor blower outlet 11b. Here, the case where two guide plates (guide plate 16a and guide plate 16b) are installed for one vehicle body 20 is shown. In addition, the guide plate 16 a and the guide plate 16 b are installed so as to be opposite to the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body 20.

  Next, the air blown out from the indoor blower outlet 11a and the indoor blower outlet 11b collides with the guide plate 16a and the guide plate 16b, changes its direction in both longitudinal directions of the vehicle body 20 in the duct 22, and the vehicle body 20 Flowing forward and backward. The air flowing in the duct 22 is blown out from the grill 23 formed in the duct 22 into the vehicle interior 25. In this way, the interior 25 is cooled or heated. Here, the vehicle air conditioner 10 is mounted at a substantially central position in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body 20, and the distances through which the air blown from the indoor blower outlet 11a and the indoor blower outlet 11b flow are equal. The case is shown as an example.

  FIG. 3 is a plan view showing a refrigeration cycle configuration of the vehicle air conditioner 10. Based on FIG. 3, the basic circuit configuration of the vehicle air conditioner 10 will be described. The vehicle air conditioner 10 includes a compressor 13a, a compressor 13b, a condenser 14a, and a condenser in addition to the indoor blower outlet 11a, the indoor blower outlet 11b, the indoor heat exchanger 12a, and the indoor heat exchanger 12b. 14b, the outdoor blower 15 is incorporated. Here, a case where two compressors and two condensers are incorporated will be described as an example.

  The vehicle air conditioner 10 forms two refrigeration cycles (the compressor 13a, the condenser 14a, and the indoor heat exchanger 12a form one refrigeration cycle, and the compressor 13b, the condenser 14b, and the indoor heat exchange. A refrigerating cycle is formed with the container 12b). And the cool air or warm air created in one refrigeration cycle is blown out from the indoor fan blower outlet 11a, and the cold air or warm air created in the other refrigeration cycle is blown out from the indoor fan blower outlet 11b. Note that the two refrigeration cycles are sequentially connected by a refrigerant pipe (not shown). The outdoor blower 15 is shared by both of the two refrigeration cycles.

  The compressor 13a and the compressor 13b compress the refrigerant circulating through the refrigeration cycle to a high temperature and high pressure state. The condenser 14a and the condenser 14b condense and liquefy the refrigerant by heat exchange between the refrigerant discharged from the compressor 13a and the compressor 13b and the outside air. The outdoor blower 15 takes in outside air supplied to the condenser 14a and the condenser 14b. The indoor heat exchanger 12a and the indoor heat exchanger 12b exchange heat between the refrigerant heat-exchanged by the condenser 14a and the condenser 14b and the air in the vehicle interior 25, and evaporate the refrigerant.

  Here, the flow of the refrigerant during the cooling operation will be described. First, the refrigerant made high temperature and high pressure by the compressor 13a and the compressor 13b is discharged from the compressor 13a and the compressor 13b and flows into the condenser 14a and the condenser 14b. The refrigerant that has flowed into the condenser 14a and the condenser 14b undergoes heat exchange with the outside air taken in by the outdoor blower 15 and is condensed and liquefied. That is, the refrigerant dissipates heat and changes to a liquid having substantially the same temperature as the outside air. The condensed and liquefied refrigerant flows into the indoor heat exchanger 12a and the indoor heat exchanger 12b.

  The refrigerant that has flowed into the indoor heat exchanger 12a and the indoor heat exchanger 12b is decompressed by an expansion valve (not shown) or the like, and changes to a low-pressure two-phase refrigerant. And it heat-exchanges with the air of the vehicle interior 25 by the indoor heat exchanger 12a and the indoor heat exchanger 12b, and it evaporates. That is, it absorbs heat from the air in the vehicle interior 25 (cools the outside air) and changes to gas. The evaporated gasified refrigerant exits from the indoor heat exchanger 12a and the indoor heat exchanger 12b and is sucked into the compressor 13a and the compressor 13a again.

  Next, the flow of the refrigerant during the heating operation will be described. During the heating operation, the refrigerant flow is reversed, so that the functions of the condenser 14a and the condenser 14b and the functions of the indoor heat exchanger 12a and the indoor heat exchanger 12b are interchanged. First, the refrigerant made high temperature and high pressure by the compressor 13a and the compressor 13 is discharged from the compressor 13a and the compressor 13b and flows into the indoor heat exchanger 12a and the indoor heat exchanger 12b. The refrigerant flowing into the indoor heat exchanger 12a and the indoor heat exchanger 12b is condensed and liquefied by exchanging heat with the air in the vehicle interior 25 in the indoor heat exchanger 12a and the indoor heat exchanger 12b. That is, the refrigerant dissipates heat (warming up the outside air) and changes to a liquid.

  Then, the pressure is reduced by an expansion valve (not shown) or the like, and the refrigerant is changed to a low-pressure two-phase refrigerant. Thereafter, the refrigerant flows into the condenser 14a and the condenser 14b, and heat-exchanges with the outside air taken in by the outdoor blower 15 in the condenser 14a and the condenser 14b to be evaporated. That is, it absorbs heat from the outside air and changes to gas. The evaporated gasified refrigerant that has come out of the condenser 14a and the condenser 1b is again sucked into the compressor 13a and the compressor 13b.

  In addition, although the case where two compressors, a condenser, an indoor heat exchanger, and an indoor fan were each incorporated in the vehicle air conditioner 10 was demonstrated here as an example, it is not limited to this. For example, one device may be provided in the vehicle air conditioner 10, or three or more devices may be provided. Moreover, although the outdoor fan 15 demonstrated as an example the case where it shared by two condensers, it is not limited to this. For example, you may provide the number of outdoor fans corresponding to each condenser.

  Furthermore, the compressor 13a and the compressor 13b may not have the same capacity. For example, the capacity of each compressor may be determined according to the place where the vehicle air conditioner 10 is mounted (the position of the mounted roof 27). Here, since the vehicle air conditioner 10 is installed at a substantially central position of the roof 27, a case where a compressor having the same capacity is used is shown as an example, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, if the vehicle air conditioner 10 is installed on the rear side of the vehicle body 20, the compressor 13a may be configured with a larger capacity than the compressor 13b. The compressor 13a and the compressor 13b may be configured by an inverter compressor capable of capacity control, or may be configured by a constant speed compressor that operates at a constant speed.

  Examples of the refrigerant that can be used in the refrigeration cycle include a non-azeotropic refrigerant mixture, a pseudo-azeotropic refrigerant mixture, and a single refrigerant. Non-azeotropic refrigerant mixture includes R407C (R32 / R125 / R134a) which is an HFC (hydrofluorocarbon) refrigerant. Since this non-azeotropic refrigerant mixture is a mixture of refrigerants having different boiling points, it has a characteristic that the composition ratio of the liquid-phase refrigerant and the gas-phase refrigerant is different. The pseudo azeotropic refrigerant mixture includes R410A (R32 / R125) and R404A (R125 / R143a / R134a) which are HFC refrigerants. This pseudo azeotrope refrigerant has the same characteristic as that of the non-azeotrope refrigerant and has an operating pressure of about 1.6 times that of R22.

  The single refrigerant includes R22, which is an HCFC (hydrochlorofluorocarbon) refrigerant, R134a, which is an HFC refrigerant, and the like. Since this single refrigerant is not a mixture, it has the property of being easy to handle. In addition, carbon dioxide, propane, isobutane, ammonia, etc., which are natural refrigerants, can also be used. R22 represents chlorodifluoromethane, R32 represents difluoromethane, R125 represents pentafluoroethane, R134a represents 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane, and R143a represents 1,1,1-trifluoroethane.

  FIG. 4 is an enlarged detailed side view showing a state where the vehicle air conditioner 10 is mounted. Based on FIG. 4, the air path structure of the vehicle air conditioner 10 and the flow of air when the vehicle air conditioner 10 is mounted will be described. As described with reference to FIG. 2, the air blown from the indoor blower outlet 11a and the indoor blower outlet 11b first collides with the guide plate 16a and the guide plate 16b. Next, the air that collides with the guide plate 16 a and the guide plate 16 b is changed in the flow direction to the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body 20, and flows in the duct 22.

  The guide plate 16 a and the guide plate 16 b are provided below the bottom plate 19 of the vehicle air conditioner 10. Therefore, the vibration generated when air collides with the guide plate 16a and the guide plate 16b propagates to the vehicle air conditioner 10 main body. Therefore, the vibration generated in the guide plate 16a and the guide plate 16b does not propagate directly to the vehicle body 20 side. Further, since the vehicle air conditioner 10 is attached to the upper side of the roof 27 of the vehicle body 20 via the vibration isolating rubber 30, the vibration transmitted to the vehicle air conditioner 10 is attenuated by the vibration isolating rubber 30. It has become. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the vibration propagating to the vehicle body 20 side.

  That is, by installing the guide plate 16a and the guide plate 16b in the vehicle air conditioner 10, the vibration generated by the guide plate 16a and the guide plate 16b is not directly transmitted to the vehicle body 20 side, and the vibration isolating rubber 30 is installed. By attaching the vehicle air conditioner 10 to the vehicle body 20 via the vehicle, the vibration generated in the vehicle air conditioner 10 is attenuated and the vibration transmitted to the vehicle body 20 side is further reduced. Therefore, the vibration generated in the guide plate 16a and the guide plate 16b is not directly transmitted to the vehicle body 20 side, and is further reduced by further damping the vibration with the vibration isolating rubber 30.

Embodiment 2. FIG.
FIG. 5 is an enlarged detailed side view showing a state where the vehicle air conditioner 10a (main body) according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention is mounted. Based on FIG. 5, the flow of air when the vehicle air conditioner 10a is mounted will be described. In the second embodiment, differences from the first embodiment will be mainly described, and the same parts as those in the first embodiment will be denoted by the same reference numerals and description thereof will be omitted. In the second embodiment, the shapes of the guide plate 16c and the guide plate 16d are different from the shapes of the guide plate 16a and the guide plate 16b shown in the first embodiment.

  Similar to the guide plate 16a and the guide plate 16b, the guide plate 16c and the guide plate 16d are provided below the bottom plate 19 of the vehicle air conditioner 10a. As shown in FIG. 5, the guide plate 16c and the guide plate 16d are formed to have a curved surface shape. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the air blown from the indoor blower outlet 11a and the indoor blower outlet 11b from rapidly expanding. That is, air collides with the guide plate 16c and the guide plate 16d without sudden expansion, and the bending static pressure loss can be reduced, so that the ventilation resistance can also be reduced.

  In this way, since the air blown from the indoor blower outlet 11a and the indoor blower outlet 11b is sent to the duct 22, vibration generated when the air collides with the guide plate 16c and the guide plate 16d is further reduced. be able to. Moreover, since the vehicle air conditioner 10a is attached to the vehicle body 20 via the anti-vibration rubber 30 as in the first embodiment, vibrations propagating to the vehicle body 20 side can be further reduced. Furthermore, since the guide plate 16c and the guide plate 16d can reduce the static pressure loss, the air reaches the end of the vehicle body 20 in the longitudinal direction.

  Here, the ventilation resistance will be described by comparing with a conventional guide plate. FIG. 6 is an enlarged detailed side view showing a state where a conventional vehicle air conditioner 100 (main body) is mounted. FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram showing an analysis model shape and analysis result of fluid (air) when a conventional general guide plate 160a and guide plate 160b are used. FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram showing an analysis model shape and analysis result of fluid (air) when the guide plate 16c and the guide plate 16d according to the second embodiment are used. In FIG. 7, the indoor blower outlet 110a and the guide plate 160a are shown as representatives, and in FIG. 8, the indoor blower outlet 11a and the guide plate 16c are shown as representatives.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the guide plate 160 a and the guide plate 160 b are installed not in the vehicle air conditioner 100 but in the duct 220. The vehicle air conditioner 100 is attached to the vehicle body 200 via a vibration-proof rubber 300. That is, the air blown out from the indoor blower outlet 110a and the indoor blower outlet 110b collides with the guide plate 160a and the guide plate 160b, and then the direction in which the air flows through the guide plate 160a and the guide plate 160b is changed. It comes to flow.

  Therefore, the vibration generated when air collides with the guide plate 160a and the guide plate 160b is directly propagated to the vehicle body 200 side. Moreover, although the vehicle air conditioner 100 is attached via the anti-vibration rubber 300, the anti-vibration rubber 300 propagates vibration generated in either the vehicle air conditioner 100 or the duct 220 to any of them. It attenuates what you do. In other words, the vibration proof rubber 300 can reduce the vibration generated in the duct 220 from propagating to the vehicle air conditioner 100, but does not reduce the vibration itself generated in the duct 220. It was to be propagated throughout the body 200.

  FIG. 7A shows the analysis model shape of fluid (air) when a conventional general guide plate 160a and guide plate 160b are used, and FIG. 7B shows the analysis result at that time. Show. 7 (a) and 7 (b) are analytical models when the static pressure difference of air of the same air volume is obtained from the air outlet of the indoor blower outlet 110a and the indoor blower outlet 110b to the air outlet of the duct 220. FIG. The shape and analysis results are shown as examples. In addition, as shown to Fig.7 (a), the static pressure in the air outlet of the duct 220 is made constant (P = 0), and is measured.

  As shown in FIG. 7 (a), the shape of the duct 220 when the conventional general guide plate 160a and guide plate 160b are used is such that the duct is formed from the air outlets of the indoor blower outlet 110a and the indoor blower outlet 110b. There is an inclined surface up to 220 air outlets. FIG. 7B shows an analysis result obtained by measuring the static pressure in the duct 220 and expressing it with isobars. From this analysis result, when the average static pressure of the air blower cross section of the indoor blower outlet 110a and the indoor blower outlet 110b when the guide plate 160a and the guide plate 160b are used is 67 Pa (Pascal).

  FIG. 8A shows the analysis model shape of the fluid (air) when the guide plate 16c and the guide plate 16d according to Embodiment 2 are used, and FIG. 8B shows the analysis result at that time. Is shown. 8 (a) and 8 (b) are similar to FIGS. 7 (a) and 7 (b), from the air outlet of the indoor blower outlet 11a and the indoor blower outlet 11b to the air outlet of the duct. An analysis model shape and an analysis result when the static pressure difference of air having the same air volume is obtained are shown as an example. In addition, as shown to Fig.8 (a), the static pressure in the air exit of the duct 22 is made constant (P = 0), and is measured.

  As shown to Fig.8 (a), the shape of the duct 22 at the time of using the guide plate 16c and the guide plate 16d which concerns on embodiment is duct from the air blower outlet of the indoor air blower outlet 11a and the indoor air blower outlet 11b.
