Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a partition that also serves as an air conditioning duct.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, air conditioners such as room air conditioners are installed exposed indoors.

Furthermore, conventionally, a part of the wall surface is made of solid wood, and an air conditioner is housed on the back side of the wall.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

If the air conditioner is installed in an exposed room, the air conditioner will stand out and spoil the aesthetics of the room.

If the air conditioner is placed behind the Gararime, it will not be noticeable and will look good. However, there are cases where it is not possible to obtain a wall surface to provide a vent to serve as a ventilation hole.

An object of the present invention is to provide a partition that has the function of a ventilation duct, allows an air conditioner to be disposed inconspicuously, and allows for free placement of ventilation ports.

[Means to solve the problem]

The partition of this invention has an air passage inside,
Provide an air conditioner connection port on the back side of the partition body, and provide ventilation ports on any other surface.

[Effect]

According to the configuration of the present invention, the partition main body also serves as a ventilation duct, and the discharge of hot air or cold air by the air conditioner or the suction of room air is performed through the air path within the partition main body.

〔Example〕

A first embodiment of this invention will be described based on FIG.

1 is a partition main body that serves as a partition wall or screen, and inside there are three air channels 2 arranged vertically by partitions 5 and 6.
It is divided into ~4. Air conditioner connection lowers ~9 which are open to these air passages 2~4, respectively, are provided on the back surface of the partition main body 1, and ventilation holes 10~12 are provided on the side end faces.

A flat air conditioner 13 and a heater 14 are arranged one above the other in contact with the back surface of a partition main body 1. The air conditioner 13 has a discharge port that communicates with the air conditioner connecting lower portion at the top of the partition main body 1, and a suction port that communicates with the upper half of the central air conditioner connection port 8 (both not shown). The heater 14 has a discharge port that communicates with the air conditioner connection port 9 at the bottom of the partition main body 1, and a suction port that communicates with the lower half of the central air conditioner connection port 8 (none of which are shown).

According to this configuration, the cold air from the air conditioner 13 is discharged from the upper ventilation port 10 via the upper air path 2. The return air is sucked into the air conditioner 13 from the central ventilation opening 11 via the central air path 3.

Warm air from the heater a14 is discharged from the lower ventilation opening 12 via the lower air passage 4. The return air is sucked into the heater 14 from the central ventilation opening 11 through the central air path 3, as in the case of cooling.

In this way, the cold air is discharged from the upper part of the partition main body 1, and the warm air is discharged from the lower part, which is an ideal discharge method and has good cooling and heating efficiency.

Moreover, there is no need for a means to switch between cold air and hot air routes.
The structure is simple.

Furthermore, since the partition main body 1 also serves as a ventilation duct, materials and space are saved compared to the case where a duct is provided separately. The air conditioner connection lower ~9 is provided on the back side of the partition main body 1, and the air conditioner 13 and the heater 14 can be placed in the storage space of the building, so the air conditioner 13 and the heater 514 are not noticeable and the interior appearance is good.

2-4 show other embodiments of the invention. This example is
Temperature sensors a-C are installed at each ventilation opening 2.4.3 located at the top, bottom, and center of the room, and air conditioner 13 and heater 1
System of 4? A control device for performing ff1l as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 is provided.

Other structural effects are the same as in the first embodiment.

The third time shows operation in heating mode. The average of the temperatures A and C detected by temperature sensors a and c in the upper and central parts of the room is compared with the set temperature, and if the average temperature is lower, the heating operation of the heater 14 is turned on.

When the average temperature is higher than or equal to the set temperature, the heating operation of the heater 14 is turned off. In this case, the upper temperature sensor a
When the temperature detected by the central temperature sensor C is higher than the temperature C detected by the central temperature sensor C, only the air blowing operation of the heater 14 is turned on. In this case, the upper part of the room is warm, and by blowing air, the air in the room is circulated, and the warm air from the upper part flows to the lower part. When the detected temperature in the upper part is lower than the detected temperature C in the lower part, the ventilation operation is also turned off. By controlling in this way, efficient and ideal heating can be achieved.

FIG. 4 shows the operation in cooling mode. The average of the temperatures B and C detected by temperature sensors b and c in the lower and central portions of the room is compared with the set temperature E, and if the average temperature is higher, the cooling operation of the air conditioner 13 is turned on.

When the average temperature is lower than the set temperature E, the cooling operation of the air conditioner 13 is turned off. In this case, lower temperature sensor b
When the detected temperature B is lower than the detected temperature C of the central temperature sensor C, only the air blowing operation of the air conditioner 13 is turned on. In this case, there is cold air at the bottom of the room,
By blowing air, the air in the room circulates, and the cool air from the bottom flows to the center of the room. When the detected temperature B of the lower part is higher than the detected temperature C of the central part, the ventilation operation is also set to OFF and F.

By controlling in this way, efficient and ideal cooling can be achieved.

In addition, in each of the above embodiments, three ventilation ports 2 to 4 and air channels 7 to 9 were provided, but the ventilation ports, air conditioner connection port, and air channel may be provided in two or one each in the partition main body. Also good. Further, the ventilation opening may be placed anywhere other than the back surface of the partition main body l on which the air conditioner connection lower to 9 are provided. That is, ventilation holes may be arranged on the front or upper end surface of the partition main body 1.

〔Effect of the invention〕

Since the partition of this invention has an air passage provided within the partition main body, it can also be used as a ventilation duct.

Therefore, compared to the case where a duct is provided separately, the material is saved and the space is taken up less. In addition, the air conditioner connection port is provided on the back side of the partition body, and the ventilation port is provided on the other side, so the air conditioner is not noticeable and looks good.

Moreover, since the ventilation openings are provided in the main body of the partition, there is an effect that the installation position of the ventilation openings can be freely selected up or down.
