いる。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the appearance of the indoor unit, and FIG. 2 is a side sectional view showing the inside of the indoor unit.
It comprises a front cover 3 detachably mounted on the main body 2 and a front panel 4 attached to the front cover 3 so as to be openable and closable, and a suction port 5 for room air is provided at an upper portion of the front panel 4. An outlet 6 is formed in a lower front part of the front cover 3. A removable air filter 8, an indoor heat exchanger 9, a blower (cross flow fan) 10, and an air passage 7 below the blower 10 are arranged in the air passage 7 between the suction port 5 and the outlet 6 in the front-back (up-down) direction. The air outlet 6 is provided with a plurality of wind direction plates 12a and 12b for vertically adjusting the air blowing into the room. The indoor heat exchanger 9 is connected to an upper heat exchanger 9a having an upper part inclined rearward of the air passage 7 and a lower part of the upper heat exchanger 9a.
It comprises a lower heat exchanger 9b which stands substantially vertically, both are used as evaporators during the cooling operation, and both are used as condensers during the heating operation, but the upper heat exchanger 9a is used during the dehumidifying operation. Is a condenser (reheater),
The lower heat exchanger 9b is used as an evaporator.

る。By the way, in the dehumidifying operation, the upper heat exchanger 9a
Becomes a condenser (reheater), and the lower heat exchange 9b becomes an evaporator, so that the air warmed by the upper heat exchanger 9a and the air cooled by the lower heat exchanger 9b simultaneously go to the outlet 6. In this embodiment, a partition 11 is provided below the blower 10 to partition the air passage 7 back and forth.
Mixing of the warm air and the cool air after being sent from the outlet 10 can be suppressed to some extent, and the cold air from the lower heat exchanger 9b is sent upward in the room by the wind direction plates 12a and 12b at the outlet 6. The upper heat exchanger 9a
Warm air from the room can be forced down the room. The partition 11 shown in FIG. 2 is fixed at a predetermined position in the air passage 7, but is not limited to this. For example, the partition 11 is rotatably supported as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, if the airbag is moved in the vertical direction (or the front-back direction), the wind direction control can be advantageously performed not only in the dehumidifying operation but also in the cooling operation and the heating operation.
