And a human detection sensor 25 (human detection means) for detecting a person in the air-conditioned space.

  As shown in FIG. 2, a speaker 20, a display unit 21, a human detection sensor 25, and a remote control 4 attached to the air conditioner 1 are connected to the control unit 30 of the air conditioner 1. The control unit 30 of the air conditioner 1 changes the operation of the air conditioner 1 based on the operation change command supplied from the user terminal device 5. The user terminal device 5 is a liquid crystal terminal such as a smartphone, for example, and supplies an operation change command (operation start operation, operation stop operation, set temperature of the room temperature, etc.) to the air conditioner 1 via the network. can do. Therefore, the control unit 30 controls the operation of the air conditioner 1 based on commands (operation start operation, operation stop operation, indoor temperature set temperature, etc.) from the remote controller 4 or the user terminal device 5. As described above, the air conditioner 1 according to the present embodiment only changes the operation state based on the operation change command (operation start operation, operation stop operation, indoor temperature setting temperature, etc.) supplied from the remote controller 4. Instead, the operation state is changed based on an operation change command (operation start operation, operation stop operation, set temperature of the room temperature, etc.) supplied from the user terminal device 5.

  Here, the remote controller 4 is provided with a setting operation unit 6 (setting unit) for changing the setting of each function of the air conditioner 1.

  Whether or not the user permits response notification in response to an operation change command (operation start operation, operation stop operation, set temperature of the room temperature, etc.) supplied from the remote controller 4 by operating the setting operation unit 6 Can be selected. This response notification is divided into voice response notification and display response notification. For the voice response notification, for example, a message notification for notifying the contents of the operation change command supplied from the remote controller 4 in a message and a received sound such as “beep” in response to the operation change command supplied from the remote controller 4 are notified. Received sound notification. In the message notification (voice response notification), for example, when an operation start command is supplied from the remote controller 4, a message “Operation has started” is notified from the speaker 20 in response to the operation start command. Further, the display response notification is to turn on the LED element of the display unit 21 (display device) in response to an operation change command supplied from the remote controller 4. By operating the setting operation unit 6 of the remote controller 4, the user can select whether or not to individually permit setting of message notification, reception sound notification, and display response notification (ON / OFF). Therefore, when the user feels troublesome about the message notification, the reception sound notification, and the display response notification, the settings of the message notification, the reception sound notification, and the display response notification can be turned off, respectively. In this air conditioner 1, even if the message notification setting is turned on and the reception sound notification setting is off, reception sound notification and message notification are prohibited, and an operation change command is supplied from the remote controller 4. The reception sound notification and the message notification are not performed.

  The control unit 30 of the air conditioner 1 includes a plurality of hardware such as a CPU, a ROM, and a RAM. The ROM stores a control program for controlling the operation of the control unit 30. And this control part 30 has the alerting | reporting control part 31 (notification means), as shown in FIG.

  The notification control unit 31 (notification unit) includes a voice notification control unit 32 (voice notification unit) and a display notification control unit 33. In the voice notification control unit 32, for example, in response to a message notification for notifying the contents of the operation change command supplied to the air conditioner 1 by a message and the operation change command supplied to the air conditioner 1, “pip” or the like It is possible to perform reception sound notification for notifying the received sound. In addition, the display notification control unit 33 can perform display response notification that turns on the LED elements of the display unit 21 in response to an operation change command supplied to the air conditioner 1. First, the voice notification control unit 32 will be described in detail.

  The voice notification control unit 32 notifies a received sound or message via the speaker 20. When the received sound notification and message notification settings are on, the voice notification control unit 32 is supplied with an operation change command (operation start operation, operation stop operation, set temperature of the room temperature, etc.) from the remote controller 4. In response to the operation change command, for example, a reception sound (second reception sound) such as “beep” or “beep” is notified. Then, after notifying the received sound (second received sound), the contents of the operation change command supplied from the remote controller 4 are notified by a message. For example, when an operation start command is supplied from the remote controller 4, the voice notification control unit 32 notifies the reception sound “second” (second reception sound) and then the message “Operation has started”. Is notified.

  On the other hand, when the reception sound notification setting is on and the message notification setting is off, even if an operation change command is supplied from the remote controller 4, the message is not notified and only the reception sound (second reception sound) is received. Informed. In addition, when the reception sound notification setting is off, the reception sound (second reception sound) and the message are notified even if the operation change command is supplied from the remote controller 4 regardless of whether the message notification setting is on or off. Not.

  On the other hand, when the operation change command (operation start operation, operation stop operation, set temperature of the room temperature, etc.) is supplied from the terminal device 5, the voice notification control unit 32 responds to the operation change command, for example, “Pip”. ”,“ Beep ”, etc., is notified (first received sound). And after alerting | reporting a received sound (1st received sound), the message alerting | reporting which alert | reports with the message that the driving | running change command was supplied from the terminal device 5 is performed. The message notifying that the operation change command is supplied from the terminal device 5 is, for example, a message “Operated from a smartphone”.

  In particular, when the operation change command from the terminal device 5 is an operation start command or an operation stop command, the voice notification control unit 32 responds to the operation change command, for example, “pip”, “pip”, etc. After notifying the reception sound (first reception sound), as a message notification, the operation change command is supplied from the terminal device 5 and the content of the operation change command is notified. For example, when an operation start command is supplied from the terminal device 5, the voice notification control unit 32 notifies the reception sound (first reception sound) “beep” and then “operated from a smartphone. Announce the message "Start." Here, the part “Operated from a smartphone” is a message indicating that a driving change command has been supplied from the terminal device 5, and the part “Starting driving” is the content of the driving change command. It is a message which shows. Therefore, when the operation change command from the terminal device 5 is an operation start command or an operation stop command, the message includes the content of the operation change command supplied from the terminal device 5. The operation change command from the terminal device 5 is a command other than the operation start command and the operation stop command (change of the operation mode such as the set temperature of the room temperature, the set humidity of the room temperature, the wind direction, the air volume, the cooling operation or the heating operation, ), The voice notification control unit 32 notifies the user that the operation change command is supplied from the terminal device 5 after notifying the reception sound (first reception sound). The content is not notified. For example, when a command for changing the set temperature of the room temperature is supplied from the terminal device 5, the voice notification control unit 32 notifies the reception sound (first reception sound) “beep” and then “operates from the smartphone. Only the message "."

  Note that the received sound (first received sound) that is notified in response to the operation change command supplied from the terminal device 5 and the received sound that is notified in response to the operation change command supplied from the remote controller 4 (second The received sound is the same. In addition, the voice notification control unit 32 performs reception sound notification and message notification in response to all operation change commands supplied from the terminal device 5.

  When the display response notification is set to ON, the display notification control unit 33 receives an operation change command (operation start operation, operation stop operation, set temperature of the room temperature, etc.) from the remote controller 4, and the operation change command In response to this, for example, a display response notification for lighting the LED element of the display unit 21 is performed for a predetermined time. On the other hand, when the display response notification setting is off, the display notification control unit 33 does not light the LED element of the display unit 21 even if an operation change command is supplied from the remote controller 4. In addition, lighting of the LED element of the display part 21 includes blinking the LED element of the display part 21. FIG.

  Further, when an operation change command (operation start operation, operation stop operation, set temperature of the room temperature, etc.) is supplied from the terminal device 5, the display notification control unit 33 responds to the operation change command, for example, for a predetermined time. The display response notification for lighting the LED element of the display unit 21 is performed. In addition, the display response notification performed in response to the operation change command supplied from the terminal device 5 and the display response notification performed in response to the operation change command supplied from the remote controller 4 include the lighting time and the number of blinks. Everything is the same. In addition, the display notification control unit 33 performs display response notification in response to all the operation change commands supplied from the terminal device 5.

  Here, when the message notification based on the operation change command from the remote controller 4 is prohibited, the voice notification control unit 32 performs the message notification when the operation change command is supplied from the terminal device 5. That is, even when the message notification based on the operation change command from the remote controller 4 is prohibited, if the operation change command from the terminal device 5 is the operation start command or the operation stop command, the terminal device 5 A message informs that the operation change command has been supplied and the content of the operation change command. Even when message notification based on the operation change command from the remote controller 4 is prohibited, if the operation change command from the terminal device 5 is an instruction other than the operation start command and the operation stop command, the terminal A message that the operation change command is supplied from the device 5 is notified. The case where the message notification based on the operation change command from the remote controller 4 is prohibited is a case where the reception sound notification setting is turned off or the message notification setting is turned off.

  In addition, the voice notification control unit 32 changes the operation from a terminal device 5 different from the remote controller 4 when the reception sound notification based on the operation change command from the remote controller 4 is prohibited (when the reception sound notification setting is off). When the command is supplied, the reception sound notification for notifying the reception sound (first reception sound) is performed. Further, the display notification control unit 33 changes the operation from the terminal device 5 different from the remote controller 4 when the display response notification based on the operation change command from the remote controller 4 is prohibited (when the display response notification setting is off). When the command is supplied, a display response notification for lighting the LED element of the display unit 21 is performed.

  Therefore, in this air conditioner, for example, when message notification based on the operation change command from the remote controller 4 is prohibited, when the operation change command is supplied from the terminal device 5, the operation change command is issued from the terminal device 5. When the user changes the operation setting of the air conditioner 1 from the outside using the terminal device 5, for example, even if there is another user in the room, It is easy to grasp that the operation setting of the air conditioner 1 has been changed by the terminal device 5. Further, in this air conditioner, for example, when the display change notification based on the operation change command from the remote controller 4 is prohibited, the display response notification is performed when the operation change command is supplied from the terminal device 5. Therefore, when the user changes the operation setting of the air conditioner 1 from the outside using the terminal device 5, for example, even if another user exists in the room, the other user has the operation setting of the air conditioner 1. It is easy to grasp that it has been changed by the terminal device 5.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described based on drawing, it should be thought that a specific structure is not limited to these embodiment. The scope of the present invention is shown not by the above description of the embodiments but by the scope of claims for patent, and further includes meanings equivalent to the scope of claims for patent and all modifications within the scope.

[First Modification]
Next, the air conditioner concerning a 1st modification is demonstrated. In the above embodiment, the received sound (first received sound) notified in response to the operation change command supplied from the terminal device 5 and the received sound notified in response to the operation change command supplied from the remote controller 4. (Second received sound) is the same, but in the air conditioner according to the first modification, the first received sound and the second received sound are different. For example, the first received sound is a received sound “beep”, while the second received sound is a received sound “beep”.

  In the air conditioner according to the first modified example, a received sound (second received sound) that is notified when the operation setting is changed from the remote controller 4 and a notification that is issued when the operation setting is changed from the terminal device 5. Since the received sound (first received sound) is different, it can be seen that the operation setting of the air conditioner has been changed by the terminal device 5 only by listening to the received sound. Therefore, it is easier to recognize that the operation setting of the air conditioner has been changed from the terminal device 5.

[Second Modification]
Next, the air conditioner concerning a 2nd modification is demonstrated. In the said embodiment, although the alerting | reporting control part 31 responds to all the operation change commands supplied from the terminal device 5, it alert | reports a message, but in the air conditioner concerning a 2nd modification, it is supplied from the terminal device 5.

  In the air conditioner according to the second modified example, a message is notified when an operation start command or an operation stop command is supplied from the terminal device 5, so that another user in the room is particularly likely to mistake for a malfunction. It can be recognized that the start operation or the operation stop operation is operated by the terminal device 5. In addition, other operation change commands (such as changing the indoor temperature setting temperature, indoor temperature setting humidity, wind direction, air volume, operation mode such as cooling operation or heating operation) that are difficult for a user in the room to misunderstand It is possible to eliminate the troublesome notification of messages when supplied.

[Third Modification]
Next, an air conditioner according to a third modification will be described. In the said embodiment, the alerting | reporting control part 31 responds to all the operation change commands supplied from the terminal device 5, regardless of whether there is a person in the room (the air-conditioned space where the air conditioner 1 is arranged). In the air conditioner according to the third modification, when a person is detected by the human detection sensor 25, the message is notified in response to the operation change command supplied from the terminal device 5. When a person is not detected by the detection sensor 25, a message is not notified in response to the operation change command supplied from the terminal device 5.

  In the air conditioner according to the third modification, it is possible to prevent the message from being notified when the user is not in the air-conditioned space, so that energy can be saved.

[Other variations]
In the above-described embodiment, instructions other than the operation start instruction and the operation stop instruction as the operation change instruction from the terminal device 5 (operating modes such as the set temperature of the indoor temperature, the set humidity of the indoor temperature, the wind direction, the air volume, the cooling operation and the heating operation) The change of the operation change command is not notified, but the content of the operation change command may be notified as a message. For example, in the above-described embodiment, when a command for changing the set temperature of the room temperature is supplied from the terminal device 5, the notification is only “Operated from a smartphone.” However, “Operation from a smartphone has been set. A message including the content of the operation change command “change the temperature” may be notified.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the alerting | reporting control part 31 responds to all the driving change commands supplied from the terminal device 5, it alert | reports a message, but as shown in the said 2nd modification, it supplies from the terminal device 5. A message may be notified when the operation change instruction to be performed is an operation start instruction or an operation stop instruction, or only when the operation change instruction supplied from the terminal device 5 is an operation start instruction. Alternatively, the message may be notified only when the operation change command supplied from the terminal device 5 is the operation stop command.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although a message may contain the content of the driving | running change command supplied from the terminal device 5, it does not need to contain. Therefore, when a driving change command is supplied from the terminal device 5, only a driving change command is supplied from the terminal device 5 (for example, “only operated from a smartphone”) may be notified by a message. .

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, when a driving | running change command is supplied from the terminal device 5, a received sound alert | report, a message alert | report, and a display response alert are performed, but only a message alert may be performed. Therefore, it is not necessary to notify the reception sound (first reception sound) before the message is notified.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the thing which can supply an operation change command to the air conditioner 1 via a network was mentioned as the terminal device 5 different from the remote control 4, an operation change command was given to the air conditioner 1 without going through a network. It may be one that can supply.

  By using the present invention, when the operation setting of the air conditioner is changed using a terminal device different from the remote control attached to the air conditioner, the change is mistaken for a malfunction of the air conditioner. Can be prevented.
