Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a separate type air conditioner installation device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Refrigerant pipes and drain hoses extend to the outside of an indoor unit of a separation type air conditioner, and these pipes and hoses pass through a wall hole of a house and are connected to an outdoor unit. Here, the refrigerant pipe and the drain hose extending from the indoor unit are generally bundled with a decorative tape and then inserted into one wall hole as shown in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 2-20552.

[0003]

As described above, since the refrigerant pipes and the drain hose are bundled together, the bundled pipe group has a large diameter, so that the diameter of the wall hole must be increased. It was If the diameter of the wall hole is increased, even if the indoor unit is installed, the wall hole cannot be completely covered by this indoor unit, and there is a possibility that part of the wall hole is visible from the inside of the room and the appearance is not good. If the wall hole is made smaller so that the wall hole cannot be seen from the room, it may be difficult to insert the tube group into the wall hole, resulting in poor workability.

Further, when the indoor unit temporarily fixed to the installation plate (the lower part of the indoor unit is slightly raised from the indoor wall surface) is set to the installation completion state (the back surface of the indoor unit is brought into contact with the indoor wall surface). , The drain hose is pushed to the outside of the room and it is easy to trap in this drain hose,
Drainage is not smooth, which may be a cause of leakage.

An object of the present invention is to reliably store a refrigerant pipe and a drain hose extending from an indoor unit of a separation type air conditioner to improve the appearance and to smoothly drain water. is there.

[0006]

In order to achieve this object, the present invention provides a first wall hole for inserting a refrigerant pipe extending from an indoor unit into a wall surface in a room, and a drain hose also extending from the indoor unit. And a second wall hole for inserting the hole.

[0007]

Since the refrigerant pipe and the drain hose extending from the indoor unit are inserted into the wall holes provided individually, the positions of the refrigerant pipe and the drain hose are individually determined, and the positions of the two are unlikely to be displaced. Also, each of the wall holes can be smaller than the conventional wall holes.

In particular, the width dimension A of the left cutout portion 5 is set larger than the width dimension B of the right cutout portion 6. Here, two marks 7 running in the vertical direction are provided on the upper side of the left notch 5, and one mark 8 running in the horizontal direction is provided on the right side. These marks are
This is for providing the first and second wall holes 9 and 10 having a diameter of 60 mm, for example, with the intersection of the extension lines of these marks as the center. Therefore, when the wall holes 9 and 10 are provided according to these marks 7 and 8, the two wall holes 9 and 1 are formed in the inner wall 2.
0 is applied.

Reference numeral 11 denotes an indoor unit of a separation type air conditioner, which accommodates a heat exchanger 12, a drain pan 13, and a blower (not shown). A drain hose 14 is connected to a drain pan and is led to the outside of the indoor unit 11. A refrigerant pipe 12 is connected to the heat exchanger and is led to the outside of the indoor unit 11.

The upper portion 15 of the indoor unit 11 (see FIG. 2)
(Refer to FIG. 4) is engaged with the locking piece 16 of the installation plate 4 and temporarily fixed, and the drain hose 14 is inserted into the second wall hole 10 through the refrigerant pipe 12
Are inserted into the first wall holes 9 respectively (see the one-dot chain line arrow).

FIG. 2 shows a state in which the indoor unit 11 is temporarily fixed in this way, and 17 is a spacer which is interposed between the indoor unit 11 and the installation plate 4. The spacer 17 keeps the lower portion of the indoor unit 11 raised from the installation plate 4. A drain pipe 18 is fixed in a space 19 between the inner wall 2 and the outer wall 3. The drainage pipe 18 is a “hard PVC pipe”, and the opening 20 at the tip thereof is inclined about 45 ° and faces the inner wall 2 side while being close to the second wall hole 10. In this way, the opening 20 of the drainage pipe 18 is inclined so that the tip 21 of the drain hose guided to the space 19 through the second wall hole 10 can be easily inserted into the drainage pipe 18. .

The lower portion of the indoor unit 11 is floated to connect the refrigerant pipe 12 to the inter-unit pipe, and the drain hose 14 is inserted into the drain pipe 18 through the second wall hole 10 of the hose 14. After that, if the spacer 17 is removed, the back surface of the indoor unit 11 directly contacts the inner wall, and the installation is completed.

When the indoor unit 11 is installed in this way, the drain hose 14 has the second wall hole 10 and the refrigerant pipe 1
Since the position of 2 is individually determined by the first wall hole 9, it becomes difficult to trap the drain hose 14 and smooth drainage treatment can be performed. Also, since the respective wall holes 9 and 10 are small enough, it is possible to sufficiently hide the wall holes 9 and 10 by installing the indoor unit 11 so that the appearance of the indoor unit 11 after installation is not deteriorated. There is.

In the above embodiment, the refrigerant pipe 12 and the drain hose 1 are used.
