Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to an exposed ceiling panel of a ceiling-embedded air conditioner whose main body portion is installed embedded within the ceiling.

Conventional configuration and its problems Generally, the main body of a ceiling-mounted air conditioner is installed inside the ceiling of the air-conditioned room, and the panel that forms the air intake and air outlet for this main body is exposed from the ceiling. It will be installed. Therefore, this exposed ceiling panel has a great impact on the appearance of the air-conditioned room, and it is important to match the color of the panel to the ceiling surface,
Users have a variety of preferences, such as adding accents by using different widths. For this reason, methods such as pasting wallpaper on exposed ceiling panels are adopted, but in recent years there have been a large number of types of wallpaper, and the thickness of wallpaper has also varied, especially when the wallpaper is thick. However, even if an attempt was made to hold the outer circumferential groove, it was difficult because the thicknesses were different, and the installation work required a great deal of time.

Purpose of the invention Therefore, in order to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional methods, the present invention was developed by pasting wallpaper on the outer surface of exposed ceiling panels in a way that matches the mood of the air-conditioned room such as the ceiling of a store or the user's preference. The purpose of this is to make the work easier and to have an extremely good finish when installing it on the main body later.

Structure of the invention In order to achieve this objective, the invention consists of an exposed ceiling panel, an outer peripheral panel having a discharge grille, an intermediate panel having a suction grille, and a mounting plate that adjusts the gap between the grooves holding the intermediate panel. Therefore, even if the size of the intermediate panel changes depending on the thickness of the decorative paper pasted on the intermediate panel, the groove can be easily held in the groove by using any part of the mounting plate and the intermediate panel can be mounted. This simplifies panel installation.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In the figure, 1 is a ceiling-embedded air conditioner body that is buried inside the ceiling A of the air-conditioned room.A box body 2 that forms the outer shell and is located inside the ceiling A, and a panel 3 that is exposed from the ceiling A side. The whole is formed flat. This panel 3 has air discharge ports 4 on the left and right sides, and has an air suction port 5 in the center. and air intake port 5
A pair of approximately inverted U-shaped air passages 6, 6 are formed from the air outlet 4 to the air outlet 4, and a blower 7 is connected to the air inlet 5.
and heat exchangers 8, 8 are arranged in the air passages 6, 6, respectively.

Next, details of the panel 3 will be explained. Panel 3
has a pair of U-shaped outer circumferential panels 9, 9 having an air outlet 4 and disposed with a discharge grille 4a, and an intermediate panel 10 with decorative paper 15 pasted on the inside of the outer circumferential panels 9. . And the outer panel 9
The overlapping portion of the intermediate panel 10 and the intermediate panel 10 have a U-shaped groove 9 to cover the edge of the decorative paper 15 attached to the intermediate panel 10.
a is formed on each outer peripheral panel 9. The outer peripheral panels 9, 9 and the intermediate panel 10 are connected to each other via a mounting plate 17 having a hole 17' connected to each stepped part, which allows adjustment of the mounting dimension a of the groove 9a according to the thickness of the intermediate panel 10. and appropriate stepped portions 17a, 17b...
Select ... and install from the inside using a plurality of screws 11. In addition, the pair of outer peripheral panels 9, 9 are provided with a connecting plate 12 on the inner and outer sides, and this connecting plate 1
2 and the outer peripheral panels 9, 9 are attached and fixed using screws 13. Further, an air suction port 5 is provided in the center of the intermediate panel 10, and a suction grill 14 is disposed therein. Further, a horizontal flange 10a is integrally extended into the suction port 5 of the intermediate panel 10, and this horizontal flange 10a and a part of the main body are overlapped and screwed together with screws 16, so that the entire panel 3 is connected to the main body. It is installed on 1.
Therefore, when attaching the decorative paper 15 to the intermediate panel 10 to match the design of the ceiling of the store, first remove the screws 16 and remove the panel 3 from the ceiling A, then attach the connecting plate 12 and the grooves of the outer peripheral panels 9, 9. Mounting plate 1 of section 9a
7 and divide the outer peripheral panels 9, 9 into two. Then, the intermediate panel 10 is taken out and a decorative paper 15 is pasted on the surface of the intermediate panel 10. The peripheral end face of the decorative paper 15 stuck to the intermediate panel 10 is covered by the groove 9a of the outer peripheral panels 9, 9 and is not exposed to the outside. At this time, the middle panel 10 is thicker than before the decorative paper 15 is pasted by the thickness of the decorative paper 15 to be pasted, but the groove 9a at the overlapping part of the outer peripheral panels 9, 9 and the middle panel 10 is The dimension a is obtained by shifting the mounting plate 17 (from the state shown in Fig. 4 to the state shown in Fig. 5) using the oblong hole 17' of the mounting part of the mounting plate 17, and setting the arbitrary stepped portions 17a and 17b. Since it is possible to arbitrarily change the dimension a, it becomes possible to select a decorative paper 15 that gives priority to the store design, completely ignoring the thickness, and the work of pasting and installing it is extremely easy. .

Although the decorative paper has been described using wallpaper, it may also be a vinyl sheet.

Effects of the invention As is clear from the above explanation, the present invention consists of an exposed ceiling panel of a ceiling-mounted air conditioner consisting of a removable outer peripheral panel and an intermediate panel, and a groove covering the outer periphery of the intermediate panel. Since the mounting plate can be selected and adjusted arbitrarily depending on the thickness of the paper, it is possible to attach decorative paper to the middle panel, and it is easy to do so without the need for a lot of time and effort, which is required in the conventional method of attaching decorative paper to the entire panel. In addition, the finish of the end surface treatment of the wallpaper is good, and the store design can be satisfied.
