膨らんで変形する現象が起る。When the air conditioner is operated for heating, the temperature of the heat exchanger 2 rises, and the warm air inside is sent out by the fan 4 through the wind circuit inside the frame main body 3, and the outside air becomes warm, causing the front The surface temperature of panel 1 also rises and becomes warmer. However, if the defrosting operation starts during the heating operation, the indoor heat exchanger 2 becomes cold, the fan 4 stops, and the air inside the main body 3 stops moving. As a result, main body 3
Inside, the cold air on the surface of the heat exchanger 2 flows into the front panel l.
When the back side (inside the main body) of the front panel 1 is cooled and the temperature difference between the warm front side of the front panel 1 and the cold back side of the front panel 1 becomes large, the front panel 1 expands and deforms to the front side due to the bimetal principle. happens.
