It had drawbacks such as causing problems.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks, and the overall shape is made extremely compact, and the temperature of the outside air is low, such as in the middle season and winter when cooling is not required. Focusing on the use of the outside air at the time, even when the indoor temperature rises due to the collective body of the population, the degree of sunshine, the use of OA equipment, etc. even in the above-mentioned seasons, the outside air is directly required, It is intended to provide a wide range of convenient terminals and system type air conditioners that can obtain an ideal cooling effect by introducing them into a room.

[0004]

As a means for achieving the above object, an example of a cassette type air conditioner according to the present invention is shown in the drawings, and the inside of a machine body 1 is divided into upper and lower parts by a partition plate, and the front and rear parts are separated from each other. A return air passage a that connects the intake port 2 and the exhaust port 3, which are respectively opened, and an exhaust air passage a at the top, and an outside air intake port 4
And a return air passage b communicating with the air outlet 5 is formed below. Further, the return, exhaust blower 6 and return, outside air blower 7 are arranged in parallel in the air passage, and cool, hot water coil 8, humidifier 9 and other necessary mechanical devices are installed in the lower air passage. To form the A unit. Also the aircraft 1
By installing a by-pass air passage c vertically or on one side between the inner upper and lower air passages of the B unit having the exhaust port 3 and the outside air intake port 4 provided on one side, the total heat exchanger 10 is installed vertically. The outside air introduction dampers d1 and d2 are returned between the upper and lower air passages a and b in the front air passage of the total heat exchanger 10, the exhaust air blow switching damper d3, and the by-pass damper d in the by-pass air passage c.
4 is installed so as to be openable and closable, and is configured to freely return air through the switching operation of these dampers, exhaust air, introduction of outside air, and air-fuel mixture.

Further, in the present invention, in the usual case, the A unit and the B unit are continuously arranged in an integrated structure. However, the A unit and the B unit are separately formed in advance, If necessary, above A unit and B
It is also possible to separate the units so that, for example, one of the unit devices can be used independently as an RA-equipped air handling unit machine.

[0006]

According to the present invention, the A unit and the B unit are integrally used, and each of the intake / exhaust ports is connected to the air outlet, the outdoor exhaust port, etc. which are installed on the indoor side by duct connection or the like, Return, exhaust blower 6 and return, outside air blower 7
During operation, the contaminated air on the indoor side is sucked from the suction port 2 of the A unit, is returned, and the whole amount is discharged to the outside from the exhaust port 3 through the exhaust air blowing path a. At the same time as the above operation, one of the fresh outside air is returned from the outside air intake port 4 while passing through the total heat exchanger 10 while recovering a part of the heat quantity contained in the exhaust gas and flowing to the outside air blowing passage b. Cooling and warming air of a predetermined temperature and fresh outside air are sent to each room through the outlet 5 while heat exchange and humidification are performed to an appropriate temperature by the action of the cold and hot water coils 8. When it is necessary to recirculate the indoor air at the same time as the intake of the outside air during the above-mentioned operation, the entire amount of the indoor air is discarded by opening the return / exhaust air ventilation switching damper d3 installed between both ventilation passages. Instead, it is recirculated to the room as a mixture. In addition, when the outside air is not required for the operation, the outside air introduction dampers d1 and d are naturally used.
By closing the bypass bus damper d4 and the bypass bus return d2 and opening the exhaust air blowing switching damper d3, the return air operation can be performed only with the indoor air without taking in the outside air. Further, when it is necessary to introduce a small amount of cold air in addition to normal cooling and heating due to the indoor environment in the middle of the season, winter, etc., by opening the bypass damper d4 when the cold and warm air is sent, Appropriate cold air can be easily taken into the room, and when it is necessary to introduce only fresh outdoor air, the bypass bus damper d4 is opened and the other outdoor air introduction dampers d1, d2, and It is also possible to easily take in the return and exhaust air blowing switching damper d3 by closing the circuit. That is, in the case of the above, the outside air cooling can be directly fed to the room without using the cold and hot water coil 8, and therefore, it can be used very economically and healthyly. In addition, when the effect is insufficient at the time of cooling the outside air and more cool air is required, the intended cooling effect can be enhanced by supplementarily flowing cold water through the cold water coil. Further, when humidification is required at the time of blowing air, the humidifier 9 installed in the return air / air blowing passage b is opened and water or steam is circulated so that proper humidification can be performed at the same time as the blowing. It is also possible to send air into the room.

Further, according to the present invention, in some cases, the above-mentioned return, exhaust, and outside air blowers 6 and 7 are provided.
The unit and the B unit having the total heat exchanger 10 are separately formed in advance so that the A unit and the B unit are separated as necessary, and the A unit and the B unit are individually separated, for example, the A unit is an air handling unit with RA. It can also be used as a machine.

Further, according to the present invention, the front panel 12 is attached to the front surface of each unit body so as to be openable and closable, so that the inside of the body is exposed at once by simply opening the front panel 12. It is a convenient invention that various works such as individual maintenance can be surely and easily performed from the front of the machine body.
