Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent nonuse of a plug-in port by superposing power cords and the ports, and the cords and power plugs by extending the cords extended in parallel with an aligning direction of plug-in sockets from the plugs perpendicularly to the direction of the aligning sockets. CONSTITUTION:Power cords 2 of an air conditioner are provided perpendicularly to an aligning direction of plug-in sockets from power plugs 3. Thus, even if the plug 3 is inserted to any plug-in port 6, the cord 2 is not superposed to other plug-in port, and not superposed to other plug 3. Accordingly, any plug sockets aligned longitudinally and laterally of the plurality of the sockets can be all used.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a power supply device for an air conditioner having a power plug and a power cord extended from the power plug.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional power supply unit of this type of air conditioner will be described with reference to FIGS.

In FIG. 4, 7 is a body of a conventional air conditioner, 8 is a conventional power plug, and 9 is a power cord.

Here, the conventional power plug 8 has a power plug 10 and a ground terminal 11 protruding from it. Reference numeral 9 denotes a power cord, which extends from the power plug 8 in parallel with the direction in which the power plugs 10 are arranged.

Reference numeral 12 is a general outlet and is provided with a plurality of insertion ports 13. 12a is a vertical outlet, and 12b is a horizontal outlet.

The outlet 13 is provided with a power outlet 14 and a ground outlet 15.

[0007]

However, when a plurality of the above-mentioned power plugs 8 are inserted into the insertion ports 13 of the general outlet 12, the power cord 9 is formed as shown in FIG. 7d.
The other insertion port 1 that is not used because it overlaps with the insertion port 13
3 cannot be used. Further, there is a problem that the power cord 9 cannot be used because it overlaps the other power plugs 8 even if the inserting method as shown in FIG.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and prevents the power cord and the insertion port from overlapping and making the insertion port unusable, and preventing the power cord from overlapping the power plug and becoming unusable. The purpose is.

[0009]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a power cord that is parallel to the direction in which the power plugs are arranged from the power plug and is perpendicular to the direction in which the power plugs are arranged. It is a thing.

[0010]

According to the present invention, the power cord, which is output from the power plug in parallel to the direction in which the power plugs are lined up, is perpendicular to the direction in which the power plugs are lined up. It is possible to prevent the outlet from becoming unusable due to the power cord overlapping the power plug.

[0011]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

Reference numeral 1 is a main body of the air conditioner, 2 is a power cord, and 3 is a power plug.

As shown in FIG. 1, the power cord 2 is provided vertically from the power plug 3 in the direction in which the power insertion portions 4 are arranged. Reference numeral 5 is a ground terminal, and 6 is an outlet.

Here, the insertion state of the plug 3 will be described. As shown in FIG. 3, even if the plugs 3 are inserted into all the insertion openings 6, the power cord 2 does not overlap with the other insertion openings 6, and
All the plugs 6 can be used without overlapping the other power plugs 3.

[0015]

As is apparent from the above description, the present invention is as follows.
By pulling out the power cord vertically from the power plug in the direction in which the power plugs are lined up, it is possible to prevent the power cord from overlapping the power plug and the power cord from overlapping with the power plug. It is possible to use all the plug-in parts even with outlets or side-by-side outlets.
