Description

  The present invention relates to an air conditioner outdoor unit curing cover made of nonwoven fabric.

  In the exterior wall painting work of existing detached houses and apartment buildings, the air conditioner outdoor unit is covered with a vinyl sheet in advance before starting the painting work so that the coating agent scattered during the construction does not adhere to the air conditioner outdoor unit and become dirty. is doing. This vinyl sheet is cut into a required length from a roll and is attached to an air conditioner outdoor unit using adhesive tape or the like. Since there are usually 3 to 4 air conditioner outdoor units even in a normal house, the curing work of covering each outdoor unit with a vinyl sheet and fastening with adhesive tape is quite laborious. Moreover, since the vinyl sheet has to be removed from the outdoor unit after the painting work is completed, this removal work is quite troublesome. Furthermore, since the removed vinyl sheet is quite bulky, it is troublesome to transport and discard.

  Therefore, a cover exclusively for curing an air conditioner outdoor unit is proposed in Patent Document 1 (FIG. 1). This special curing cover is made of vinyl and can be used repeatedly. The principle is not to use an air conditioner during curing, but the air conditioner may be switched on by mistake. Therefore, a mesh portion is formed on the front surface of the cover so as not to block the air outlet of the air conditioner outdoor unit. If there is such a mesh part, even if the air conditioner is switched on by mistake, the air conditioner will not break down. With the cover for curing as described above, it is not necessary to cut out the required length from the vinyl sheet and fasten it with an adhesive tape.

  However, since the position of the mesh portion of the curing-specific cover of Patent Document 1 is determined, some or all of the outlets may be blocked by the cover depending on the type of outdoor unit. Providing a special curing cover with different specifications for each model with different positions and sizes of the air outlets is costly and requires installation work such as selecting the type of cover. Further, since the entire cover is made of vinyl, the weight is relatively heavy, and a considerable processing cost is required to form the mesh portion. Furthermore, there is a possibility that the coating agent that has dropped or scattered near the mesh portion may enter the cover from the mesh portion and contaminate the air conditioner outdoor unit. In addition, since it is made of vinyl, incineration treatment may cause harmful gas, and thus disposal costs are also incurred.

  Therefore, the present invention can be used regardless of the position of the air outlet of the air conditioner outdoor unit, is light in weight, does not require a separate mesh part for ventilation, and is low in cost and can reliably prevent the invasion of the coating agent. An object of the present invention is to provide a curing cover for an air conditioner outdoor unit that can be easily disposed of.

  The curing cover according to the first aspect of the present invention is characterized in that it is formed in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped bag shape by a nonwoven fabric so as to cover the front, rear, left and right side surfaces and the ceiling surface excluding the bottom surface of the air conditioner outdoor unit.

  By forming the curing cover with a nonwoven fabric, the cover can be used regardless of the position of the air outlet of the air conditioner outdoor unit. In addition, since the nonwoven fabric is breathable, it is not necessary to form a mesh portion for not blocking the outlet, so that the curing cover can be manufactured at low cost. Moreover, since there is no mesh part, even if a coating agent drips or scatters, it can prevent entering into a cover. In addition, since the nonwoven fabric is lightweight, it is easy to carry the curing cover and to remove it from the outdoor unit.

  The curing cover according to claim 2 is characterized in that a water-repellent resin such as polyethylene or polypropylene is applied to the non-woven fabric of the portion covering the ceiling surface of the air conditioner outdoor unit.

  By applying a water-repellent resin such as polyethylene or polypropylene to the nonwoven fabric covering the ceiling surface, it is possible to prevent the coating agent from penetrating into the nonwoven fabric.

  The curing cover according to the invention of claim 3 is characterized in that a notice is attached to a non-woven fabric of a portion covering the ceiling surface of the air conditioner outdoor unit.

  If you put a curing cover on the air conditioner outdoor unit, you will not be able to see the inside, so you may accidentally step on the outdoor unit during painting. Conventionally, in order to prevent such carelessness, a piece of paper on which a precautionary note has been written is pasted on the curing sheet one by one. However, this is troublesome and does not look good. For this reason, it is convenient to add a notice to the upper surface of the curing cover in advance.

  A curing cover according to a fourth aspect of the present invention is characterized in that the caution statement of the third aspect is formed on the water-repellent resin coating layer of the second aspect.

  If a notice display is formed at the same time when the water-repellent resin is applied, an effect that the display is difficult to disappear can be obtained.

  The curing cover according to the invention of claim 5 is characterized in that a string for skirting is provided along the lower opening edge of the cover.

  By providing the string for the skirt aperture, the curing cover can be securely attached regardless of the size of the outdoor unit.

  Since the curing cover of the air conditioner outdoor unit according to the present invention is made of nonwoven fabric as described above, it can be used regardless of the position of the air outlet of the air conditioner outdoor unit, and it is also necessary to form a mesh portion made of nonwoven fabric. It is lightweight and low-cost, and even if the coating agent drips or scatters, it can be reliably prevented from entering the inside of the cover, and it is harmless and environmentally friendly even if incinerated. . Moreover, there exists an effect that it can prevent more reliably that a coating agent osmose | permeates a nonwoven fabric by applying water-repellent resin to the part which covers the ceiling surface of an outdoor unit.

It is a perspective view which shows a state when a curing cover is put on an air conditioner outdoor unit. It is a perspective view of the state where the curing cover was put on the air conditioner outdoor unit. It is a perspective view when the air conditioner outdoor unit covered with a curing cover is viewed from above.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of a curing cover for an air conditioner outdoor unit according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a state when the curing cover 2 is put on the air conditioner outdoor unit 1. There are various types of the air conditioner outdoor unit 1 and the positions of the air outlets 1a are various, but the outer shape is generally a horizontally long rectangular parallelepiped. The curing cover 2 according to the present invention has a horizontally long rectangular parallelepiped shape so as to conform to the general shape of the outdoor unit 1 and is formed in a bag shape slightly larger than the outdoor unit 1. A notch 2a is formed at one side of the cover 2 so as to extend upward from the hem of the cover 2 to about half the height of the cover 2. The notch 2a is widened to cover the cover 2 with the outdoor unit 1. It is easy to cover. A string 3 for skirt drawing is passed through a string passing hole formed along the opening at the bottom of the cover 2, and both ends of the string 3 are pulled out from the notch 2a. By squeezing the string 3, the cover 2 can be securely attached to the outdoor unit 1 even when the outdoor unit 1 is slightly smaller than the cover 2. In addition to the string 3, a line fastener or a surface fastener may be attached along the notch 2a, or a surface fastener belt may be attached to one side or both sides of the notch 2a instead of the string 3.

  Since the material of the cover 2 is a non-woven fabric, and this non-woven fabric has air permeability, there is an advantage that it can be used regardless of the position of the outlet 1a of the outdoor unit 1. The nonwoven fabric used for the cover 2 may be one having water repellency, nonflammability, and natural decomposability in addition to air permeability. The natural degradability includes, for example, those having a maximum life of 90 days outdoors, and using such a nonwoven fabric can contribute to the prevention of environmental pollution. The water repellency includes, for example, those coated with a polyethylene film or a polypropylene film. By using such a nonwoven fabric, it is possible to reliably prevent the coating agent from penetrating.

The weight of the nonwoven fabric is, for example, 36 g / m ² and is very light. In addition, the strength of the nonwoven fabric is, for example, that the tear strength is 40 N / 50 mm in the longitudinal direction and 28 N / 50 mm in the lateral direction, and the elongation at break (%) is, for example, 30% in the longitudinal direction and 30% in the lateral direction. Hard to break. As described above, since the nonwoven fabric is light and strong, it has an advantage that the curing cover 2 can be easily transported and detached from the outdoor unit 1 and can withstand wind and rain during the curing period.

  An attention note display 4 may be attached to the upper surface of the cover 2 as shown in FIG. The caution notice 4 may be formed by printing or transferring directly on the nonwoven fabric, but may be formed simultaneously with application of a water-repellent resin such as polyethylene or polypropylene. If the caution notice 4 is directly printed on or transferred to the nonwoven fabric, the fixability and durability may be insufficient, but if it is formed simultaneously with the application of the water repellent resin, sufficient fixability and durability can be obtained. The portion marked with light ink in FIG. 3 is such a water-repellent resin coating region 5, and thus the water-repellent resin is applied to the upper surface of the cover and the side surface portion slightly lowered from the upper surface. 2, even if the coating agent 7 of the coating gun 6 drops and adheres to the upper surface of the cover 2, it is possible to reliably prevent the coating agent 7 from penetrating into the inside of the cover 2. It goes without saying that the water-repellent resin coating region 5 may be expanded to other portions than the front surface of the cover 2.

  The curing cover 2 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 1 is configured as described above, and the curing operation is completed by simply covering the outdoor unit 1 with the cover 2 as shown in FIG. 1 and squeezing the string 3 as shown in FIG. Even if the coating agent drips or scatters during the painting work and hits the cover 2, the coating agent does not enter the inside of the cover because the cover 2 has no holes on the ceiling surface and side surfaces. In particular, if the water-repellent resin coating region 5 is formed on the ceiling surface as described above, even if a large amount of coating agent adheres to the ceiling surface like a liquid pool, it surely penetrates to the inside of the cover 2. Can be prevented. When the cover 2 is removed after the painting work is completed, it is only necessary to unfasten the string 3 and pull the cover 2 upward. In this case, the cover 2 is very lightweight and can be easily removed.

  As described above, since the air conditioner outdoor unit curing cover 2 according to the present invention is made of non-woven fabric, it can be used regardless of the position of the air outlet of the air conditioner outdoor unit, and the coating agent may drip or scatter. In addition, it is possible to reliably prevent the inside of the cover from entering, and since it is light and low cost and is naturally degradable, there is an advantage that even if it is disposable, the burden on the environment is extremely small. In addition, it is possible to improve the durability by impregnating the resin other than the front surface that hits the air outlet of the air conditioner outdoor unit or laminating it, and it is possible to use it after it is used several times and then discarded. It is.
