DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an air conditioner.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in an air conditioner in which an indoor unit and an outdoor unit are connected by a pipe as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 54-103242, the pipe is exposed along a building outer wall. It extends in a state or is inserted through a sheath tube embedded in a wall.

[0003]

However, in the case where the pipe extends along the outer wall of the building in an exposed state, foreign matters are exposed on the wall surface, and the appearance is impaired. In addition, what inserts the pipe into the sheath pipe buried in the wall,
Poor workability.

[0004] It is an object of the present invention to improve the appearance by eliminating the exposed piping on the outer wall of the building while improving the workability.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an air conditioner comprising an indoor unit and an outdoor unit connected by piping, wherein the outdoor unit installation frame is installed along the outer wall of the building, and the frame of the outdoor unit installation frame is attached to the building. The pipe extends from the pipe penetration port of the outer wall to the side near the outdoor unit, and among the pipes, the pipe located outside the building is extended into a pipe path provided in the frame, and the pipe path is covered with a cover. It is.

[0006]

The pipe located outside the building is extended into the frame, which is a component of the outdoor unit installation frame, so that foreign matters are not exposed on the building outer wall and the appearance is improved.

[0007] The piping operator performs piping while looking at the piping path in the frame body from which the cover has been removed, and then applies the cover, thereby improving workability.

FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing a first embodiment, and FIG.
(A) is a cross-sectional view along line AA,
FIG. 3B is a cross-sectional view taken along line BB, and FIG. 3 is a schematic view showing a second embodiment.

(First Embodiment) (Refer to FIGS. 1 and 2) An air conditioner 10 has an indoor unit 12 and an outdoor unit 13 arranged inside and outside a building 11, and the indoor unit 12 and the outdoor unit 13 are connected by a pipe 14. Connected.

However, the air conditioner 10 has the outdoor unit installation frame 16 installed along the outer wall 15 of the building 11, and the frame 17 of the outdoor unit installation frame 16 is connected to the pipe penetration port 15 of the outer wall 15.
A extends from A to the side of the outdoor unit 13. And
The pipe 14A located outside the building among the pipes 14 is extended into a pipe 17A provided in the frame 17, and the pipe 1
7A is covered with a removable cover 18.

The operation of this embodiment will be described below. Since the piping 14 located outside the building 11 is extended into the frame 17 which is a constituent element of the outdoor unit installation frame 16, the foreign matter is not exposed on the outer wall of the building 11 and the appearance is improved. .

The piping operator performs piping while looking at the piping path 17A in the frame body 17 from which the cover 18 has been removed, and then applies the cover 18, thereby improving workability.

Second Embodiment (See FIG. 3) An air conditioner 20 also includes an indoor unit 22 and an outdoor unit 23 arranged inside and outside a building 21, and the indoor unit 22 and the outdoor unit 23 are connected by a pipe 24. I have.

However, the plumbing equipment 20 installs the outdoor unit installation frame 26 along the outer wall 25 of the building 21, and attaches the frame 27 of the outdoor unit installation frame 26 to the pipe penetration port 25 of the outer wall 25.
A extends from A to the side of the outdoor unit 23. And
Of the pipes 24, pipes 24A located outside the building are extended into pipe paths 27A provided in the frame body 27, and
7A is covered with a removable cover 28.

Here, the outdoor unit installation frame 26 is provided with a window eave 29 on a portion of the outer wall 25 facing the pipe penetration port 25A.
Are rotatably provided around the pin 29A. Window eaves 2
Numeral 9 is set to a retracted position indicated by a dashed line at the time of piping work, so that the pipe through hole 25A can be seen from the front of the work to improve piping workability. The window eave 29 is fixed at a normal position indicated by a solid line after the piping work.

As a result, the pipe 24A, which is located outside the building, of the pipe 24 is laterally pulled inside the window eave 29 from the position of the pipe through-hole 25A, and then the inside of the pipe passage 27A is moved to the outdoor unit 2
It will be able to hang down to 3.

Reference numeral 30 denotes a flower bed provided so as to cover the outdoor unit storage section of the outdoor unit installation frame 26.

The operation of this embodiment will be described below. Since the pipe 24 located outside the building 21 is extended into the frame 27 which is a component of the outdoor unit installation frame 26, the foreign matter does not appear on the outer wall of the building 21 and the appearance is improved. .

The piping operator performs piping while looking at the piping path 27A in the frame body 27 from which the cover 28 has been removed, and then applies the cover 28, thereby improving workability.

[0020]

As described above, according to the present invention, the external appearance can be improved by eliminating the exposed piping on the outer wall of the building while improving the workability.
