Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an indoor unit of an air conditioner, and more particularly to a mounting structure of a holding member for holding a guard wire provided at an outlet.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a conventional air conditioner indoor unit has a heat exchanger 3 and an air passage connecting a suction port 2 and a blowout port 5 formed in a main body 1. Blower fan 4
And a vertical airflow direction plate group 6 having a support shaft 7 and a vertical airflow direction plate 10 provided with a support shaft 11 are provided from the rear of the outlet port 5, and a plurality of vertical airflow direction plate groups 6 are provided in the vertical direction. Insertion holes 9 are provided, and guide holes are provided in the guide portion 12 that is continuous with the insertion holes 9, and the guard wire 8 is provided in the insertion holes 9 and the guide holes.
And a holding portion 13a, 14a corresponding to the guard wire 8 on both side walls 5a or the back surface of the outlet 5
By holding the holding members 13 and 14 in a U shape or a substantially U shape with an adhesive and holding both ends of the guard wire 8 by the holding portions 13a and 14a, it is possible to prevent the fingers from being inserted into the outlet 5. It was a protected structure. With the above configuration,
The holding member 13 is provided on both side walls 5a or the back surface of the outlet 5,
When 14 was adhered by an adhesive, it took time to solidify the adhesive, and thus there was a problem that productivity was reduced.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above problems, the present invention improves productivity by fixing the holding member for holding the guard wire by providing fixing portions on both sides of the blowout port. The purpose is to provide an improved air conditioner.

[0004]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a heat exchanger and a blower fan are provided in an air passage connecting a suction port and a blowout port formed in a main body, and the blowout port is provided from the rear of the air passage. In an air conditioner in which a left / right wind direction plate group and an up / down wind direction plate are provided, a plurality of insertion holes are provided in the up / down direction in the left / right air direction plate group, and a guard wire is inserted into the insertion hole, both sides of the air outlet A fixing portion is provided on the fixing member, and a holding member made of a synthetic resin having a holding portion that holds the end portion of the guard wire is fixed to the fixing portion. Further, the upper and lower dimensions of the holding member are substantially the same as the upper and lower dimensions of the outlet. Further, the fixing portion is integrally provided so as to protrude from the air outlet. Further, the holding portion is formed in a bottomed tubular shape. Further, the holding portion is integrally formed with the holding member.

[0005]

With the above structure, since the holding member for holding the guard wire is fixed by the fixing portions provided on the upper and lower sides of the outlet, the productivity is improved as compared with the case where the holding member is bonded with the adhesive. It becomes an air conditioner.

[0006]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In FIGS. 1, 2 (A), (B), and (C), 1 is an indoor unit body of an air conditioner, 2 is a front cover detachably attached to the body 1 and an upper surface portion of the body 1. A suction port provided, 3 is a heat exchanger provided in the main body 1 for exchanging heat with the air sucked from the suction port 2, and 4 is provided in an air passage for transferring the heat-exchanged air to an outlet described later. The blower fan 5 for sending out is an air outlet for blowing out the heat-exchanged air toward the room. A concave fixing portion 5b for holding a holding member to be described later is integrally provided above and below both side walls 5a of the outlet 5. Since the fixed portion 5b is integrally formed with the both side walls 5a, the dimension and shape thereof are accurately finished. Reference numeral 6 denotes a left and right wind direction plate group that is rotatably supported by a support shaft 7 on the bottom wall surface behind the outlet 5 and that adjusts the wind direction in the left and right direction of the room. Reference numeral 8 is a guard wire for preventing the fingers from being inserted through the outlet 5. Reference numeral 9 denotes a plurality of insertion holes provided above and below the left-right airflow direction plate group 6 for inserting the guard wire 8. 10 is in front of the left and right wind direction plate group 6, and on both side walls 5a
A vertical wind direction plate that is rotatably supported by a support shaft 11 and adjusts the wind direction in the vertical direction of the room. Reference numeral 12 is a guide portion provided at the blowout port 5 for guiding the guard wire 8 and having a guide hole through which the guard wire 8 is inserted. 13 is an elastic holding member made of synthetic resin, which holds one end of the guard wire 8 and is fixed to one side of the outlet 5 by the fixing portion 5b and has a holding portion 13a having a bottomed cylindrical shape 13b. Is. The holding member 13 is formed to have substantially the same size and shape as the upper and lower sizes of the air outlet 5, so that the fixing portion 5b can be fixed to one side of the air outlet 5 without a gap. . Further, since the holding portion 13a is formed integrally with the holding member 13, the dimensional shape is accurately formed, and the guard wire 8 can be held accurately. In order to hold the other end of the guard wire 8, 14 is fixed to the other side of the outlet 5 by the fixing portion 5b, and has a holding portion 14a having a bottomed cylindrical shape 14b and is made of synthetic resin and has elasticity. It is a member. The holding member 13 is formed to have substantially the same size and shape as the upper and lower sizes of the outlet 5, so that the fixing portion 5b can fix the holding member 13 to the other side of the outlet 5 without a gap. . Also, the holding portion 14a
Is formed integrally with the holding member 14,
The dimension and shape are accurately formed, and the guard wire 8 can be accurately held.

With the above structure, the structure shown in FIGS.
As shown in, the guard wire 8 is inserted through the insertion hole 9 and the guide hole of the guide portion 12, and the both holding members 13 and 14 which are inserted and held in the holding portion 13a having the bottomed cylindrical shape 13b are attached. It is fixed by the fixing portion 5b. As shown in FIG. 2B, the holding member 13 is formed to have substantially the same size and shape as the upper and lower sides of the air outlet 5, and is formed in a concave shape and in a substantially V shape in the upper and lower sides. The fixed portion 5b
As a result, the holding member 14 is formed in a concave shape as shown in FIG. 2 (C), the upper portion is formed in a substantially V shape, and the lower portion is formed in a linear shape. The fixed portion 5b and the guide portion 12, which are formed in the above, are held in a state without play (play).
This eliminates the need to bond the holding member 13 to the blow-out port 5 by using an adhesive, so that the time for solidifying the adhesive becomes unnecessary and the productivity can be improved as compared with the conventional technique. It becomes an air conditioner.

[0008]

As described above, according to the present invention, since the holding member for holding the guard wire is fixed by the fixing portions which are provided on the upper and lower sides of the blowout port, the holding member is not required to be bonded by the adhesive. The air conditioner has improved productivity.
