Abstract

PURPOSE:To make a perfume pervade a room by passing part of the air sent into the room through air holes in a perfume corresponding to through holes in the bottom of a perfume case. CONSTITUTION:Downstream in the passageway for air and in front of a heat exchanger 4 a front plate 9 holding an electric box 10 is provided. A perfume case 11 is provided between this electric box 10 and the heat exchanger 4. The bottom piece 11a of the perfume case 11 has a multiplicity of through hole 14. The perfume case 11 is fitted with a perfume 12, and air holes 13 corresponding to the through holes 14 are provided in the perfume 12 so that passageway for air are formed therebetween. Part of the air sent to the outlet 7 to the room flows through the through holes 14 in the perfume case 11 and through the air holes 13 in the perfume 12 and then to the room.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an apparatus for providing fragrance by equipping an air conditioner with a fragrance.

Conventional Technology When constructing buildings these days, emphasis is placed on improving the environment within offices, and better buildings are being constructed. Regarding air conditioners, which play a part in improving the environment of buildings, it is important not only to control the temperature and humidity inside the office, but also to create better amenity (comfort) spaces. There is a tendency to improve comfort by adding fragrance. This is because environmental research on fragrances has shown that adding fragrances can contribute to improving work efficiency, so more and more places are equipping rooms with fragrances. However, the fragrance of these fragrances was generally created by placing the fragrance body indoors and naturally fragrant the air by naturally circulating air.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention With such a conventional configuration, when a perfume box is placed on a desk, it becomes cluttered and takes up a lot of space. Furthermore, since the fragrance is a natural fragrance, the fragrance effect can only be obtained around the perfume box, and the effect of the fragrance disappears if you move a little away from the perfume box. In addition, because documents, vases, etc. are placed on counters, tables, and desks where perfume boxes are usually placed, ventilation is poor, making it difficult for the emitted amount of perfume to reach further distances. There were various problems such as dropping and damaging the device.

The present invention solves these conventional problems, and aims to provide a fragrance device for an air conditioner that allows a certain amount of fragrance to be emitted throughout the room and prevents the fragrance from being exposed indoors. It is.

Means for Solving the Problem In order to solve this problem, the present invention includes a perfume box in the space between the heat exchanger and the air outlet in the main body, and a plurality of holes in the bottom piece of the perfume box. In addition, the perfume is filled in such a manner that a ventilation hole is provided corresponding to the hole and communicates with the air, and air is ventilated from the hole to the ventilation hole.

Function: With this configuration, when the blower is operated, indoor air is sucked in from the suction port of the main unit, heat exchanged by the heat exchanger, and blown out from the air outlet into the room via the blow-off grill. The mixture is mixed with the vaporized aroma from the perfume and blown into the room through the ventilation hole for the perfume, which corresponds to the hole in the bottom piece of the perfume box.

EXAMPLE An example of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

As shown in the figure, a main body 1 includes a suction port 2, a blower 3, and a heat exchanger 4 facing the blower 3.
Above this heat exchanger 4, there is a blowing lower formed by a top plate 5 and a rear plate 6, and the top plate 5 has a top plate bent piece 5a.
The rear plate 6 is provided with a rear plate bent piece 6a to hold the outlet grille 8. Further, a front plate 9 is provided in front of the heat exchanger 4 on the leeward side, and this front plate 9
is equipped with an electrical box 10. And this electrical box lO,
A space A is formed between the heat exchangers 40, that is, between the air outlet and the air outlet, and a fragrance box holding plate 15 having an abbreviated shape is fixed to the electrical equipment box 10. The perfume box 11 is fixed to the perfume box holding plate 15 with screws (not shown) or the like. Bottom piece 11 of the perfume box 11
A has a large number of holes 14, and the perfume box 11
The inside is filled with fragrance 12, and the hole 1 provided in the bottom piece 11a is
4, ventilation holes 13 are also provided on the side of the perfume 12 so that air can communicate with them.

In the above configuration, when the blower 3 is operated to perform air conditioning, indoor air is sucked in from the suction port 2 and heat exchanged through the heat exchanger 4, and cold air is emitted during cooling, and warm air is emitted from the blower lower during heating. Arrow G through the outlet grille 8
As shown in the arrow, part of the blown air passes through the communication hole 14 provided in the fragrance box 11, passes through the ventilation hole 13 of the fragrance 12, and is mixed with the vaporized scent from the fragrance 12, and is mixed with the scent vaporized from the fragrance 12. It is blown into the room as shown in H. That is, by forcing the blown air to pass through the ventilation hole 13 of the fragrance 12 and increasing the fragrant area of the fragrance 12 by the ventilation hole, the fragrance of the fragrance 12 is blown out while further promoting its aroma. Note that the size relationship between the ventilation hole 13 and the hole 14 may be either larger or smaller.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above embodiments, the present invention provides a main body with a large number of holes in the bottom piece of the perfume box, the perfume box is filled with perfume, and the perfume in the parentheses is provided with holes corresponding to the holes. A ventilation hole is provided that penetrates through the fragrance, and since the structure is configured to communicate with this ventilation hole, when the blower is operated, a part of the blown air that has been heat exchanged by the heat exchanger is forced into the ventilation hole provided in the fragrance. Ventilation has the great effect of enlarging the fragrant area of the perfume due to the ventilation holes, and allows the aroma of the perfume to be blown out while promoting a larger amount of aroma. Therefore, there is no need to place the perfume box on a desk or the like as in the past, and by operating the blower inside the main unit, the fragrance can be distributed throughout the room even in a sufficiently large room. It is something that you have.
