Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent scattering of condensed water generated in a heat exchanger out of a water reservoir, a cause of an offensive odor and disturbance of the air in a diffuser. CONSTITUTION:A water splash preventive plate 4 is provided from a water reservoir 3 to a diffuser 5 of an air conditioner. However, the plate 4 is installed at a position of the side of the reservoir 3. Thus, drain when condensed water generated in a heat exchanger is scattered out of the reservoir 3 and disturbance of the diffuser 5 are prevented, and an offensive odor and abnormal sound (noise) are prevented.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a structure from a water receiving portion to an air outlet of an air conditioner having a blower portion, a heat exchanger portion and a water receiving portion inside a cabinet.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Regarding a water receiver having a bent water receiver, there is Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 131831/1991, in which the position of the outlet is higher than the bottom plate of the air conditioner, and It is composed of two parts, a preventive plate, which smoothly discharges the condensed water and blows air.

[0003]

In the above-mentioned prior art, in the air conditioner having the blower section, the heat exchanger section and the water receiving section in the cabinet, the air sent from the blower section causes the heat exchanger section to generate. There is no consideration for the case where the water droplets are ejected to other than the water receiving part, and there is a problem that a bad odor and an abnormal noise are generated.

Further, when the air blown from the blower unit passes through the heat exchanger unit and is blown out from the blowout port, the air blowout occurs inside the cabinet due to the small blowout port, resulting in a strange noise. there were.

An object of the present invention is to provide an air conditioner that prevents an abnormal odor and noise.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems] A water splash prevention plate is provided from the blowing portion to the water receiving portion so that the position on the blowing portion side is higher than the position on the water receiving portion side.

[0007]

The air resistance can be suppressed by the water splash prevention plate arranged so that the position on the outlet side is higher than the position on the horizontal side from the outlet to the water receiver. Since the passing air can be blown out to the leeward side without becoming a strong turbulent flow, it is possible to suppress the action of blowing the condensed water accumulated in the water receiving portion.

[0008]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

FIG. 1 shows the mounting position of the water splash prevention plate 4 of the present invention. In the indoor air conditioner including the blower unit 1, the heat exchanger unit 2 and the water receiving unit 3, a water splash prevention plate 4
Is installed so that it covers from the leeward side end of the water receiving portion 3 to the lower surface of the air outlet of the outlet 5 and the leeward end position of the water receiving portion 3 is lower than the lower surface of the air outlet of the outlet 5. To do. Further, a heat insulating material 6 is attached to one surface of the water splash prevention plate 4 on the back surface of the air blowing surface to prevent dew condensation. FIG. 3 shows a mounting state diagram of the water splash prevention plate 4, and FIG. 2 shows a mounting position of the water splash prevention plate 4 when viewed from the direction of the outlet 5. The attachment range of the water splash prevention plate 4 is as described above in the lateral direction of the water splash prevention plate 4,
As shown in FIG. 2, the longitudinal direction covers the side lid 9 to the side lid 10.

As means for attaching the water splash prevention plate 4, an L-shaped stay 7 is provided inside the cabinet of the side lids 9 and 10.
In addition, a plurality of L-shaped stays 7 are arranged inside the cabinet of the front lid 11. With the plurality of L-shaped stays 7,
Position and fix the water splash prevention plate 4,
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the fixing method is an L-shaped stay 7
The bent portion of is overlapped with the air blow surface of the water splash prevention plate 4 and screwed.

According to this embodiment, when the dew condensation water generated in the heat exchanger section 2 is scattered to other than the water receiving section 3, it is scattered by the water splash prevention plate 4 whose mounting position on the water receiving section 3 side is lowered. The condensed water thus returned returns to the water receiver 3. Further, when the water splash prevention plate 4 is arranged in this way, there is also an effect of reducing the noise by smoothing the air blown from the air outlet portion 5 without causing a turbulent flow in the cabinet.

[0012]

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION By providing a water splash prevention plate to improve the air resistance around the blowout part, the water splash of the condensed water is prevented, the turbulent flow of the blown air is prevented, the in-machine resistance is reduced, and the motor required. The load can be reduced and the noise can be reduced.
