Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an installation plate for an air conditioner, and more particularly to the structure of an installation plate attached to a wall surface in a room.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When an indoor unit of an air conditioner is installed on a wall surface in a room, the indoor unit is fixedly supported by a metal plate installation plate which is previously fixed to the wall surface with screws or the like. Since this installation plate needs to be positioned at a predetermined distance from the ceiling and side walls and attached to the wall surface, a gauge, a jig, or the like has been used. In addition, for example, as described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-4626, when determining the position of the opening formed in the wall surface for leading the drain hose or the like out of the room, FIG.
There is an example in which the installation plate is provided with a temporary fixing portion and a mark for indicating the position of the opening on the wall surface, as shown in FIG.

In the figure, reference numeral 21 denotes a rectangular installation plate smaller than the outer dimensions of the indoor unit 22, and a mark 23 indicating the position of the opening at a predetermined position (near the center) on the installation plate 21.
23a and temporary fixing parts (holes) 24 on the upper left and right of the installation plate,
24a is formed. First, when the indoor unit 22 is attached to the wall surface between the two main columns 26, the installation plate 21 is positioned substantially at the center of the two main columns so that the indoor unit 22 does not hit the main columns 26. That is, with the installation plate 21 oriented vertically (in the state of dotted lines in FIG. 4), the upper piece of the installation plate 21 serves as the ceiling, and the left piece of the installation plate 21 is the main pillar 26.
The installation plate 21 is temporarily fixed by inserting a screw into the left piece temporary fixing portion 24. Then, a writing instrument or the like is put in the mark 23a of the temporarily fixed installation plate 21 and the opening mark 27 is attached to the indoor wall surface. After that, the installation plate 21 is turned sideways (horizontally) from the vertical position to the installation position, and screws are inserted into the right temporary fixing portion 24a and the central hole 30 to fix the installation plate 21 to the wall surface. Was used.

By the way, when the installation plate is mounted on the wall surface in the room as described above, a gauge, a jig, or the like is used, or, as shown in the conventional example, the installation plate is provided with a mark hole indicating a position for positioning. At the time of attachment, the installation plate was first oriented vertically and temporarily fixed, and then it was oriented horizontally and fixed. For this reason, there is a problem that the mounting work is difficult.

[0005]

In view of these problems, the present invention does not use a gauge or a jig for positioning the installation plate, and does not change the orientation of the installation plate and temporarily fix it. The purpose of the present invention is to provide an air conditioner installation plate that can be easily fixed to a wall surface in a room.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and is provided with locking pieces for locking an indoor unit on both upper ends, and is fixed to a wall surface in a room by screws. In a flat plate-shaped installation plate, a plurality of temporary fixing holes for temporarily fixing to the wall surface with the upper end and the side edge of the installation plate abutting against the wall surface at the central portion of the installation plate, and above it. A reference hole for determining the mounting position is provided on the wall, the reference hole and the temporary fixing hole are communicated with each other through a communication hole, and either one of the temporary fixing holes is temporarily fixed to the wall surface with a screw, and then, , Is slid along the communication hole, and is fixed to the reference hole. Further, the temporary fixing hole and the reference hole are arranged in a triangular shape. Further, the temporary fixing holes are provided at left and right symmetrical positions of the reference hole.

[0007]

With the above structure, when the installation plate is mounted on the wall surface in the room, the positioning of the installation plate can be easily performed, and after temporarily fixing the installation plate, the installation plate can be easily slid downward or left or right. A mounting plate can be attached.

[0008]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 1 to 3 are main part configuration diagrams showing an embodiment of an installation plate of an air conditioner according to the present invention. In FIG. 1, 1 is an indoor unit of an air conditioner, 2 is a room to be air-conditioned, 3 is a wall surface on which the indoor unit is mounted, 4 is a metal plate installation plate that is fixed to and supports the indoor unit, Reference numeral 5 is a swivel edge that serves as a ceiling.

As shown in FIG. 2, the installation plate 4 is a rectangular metal plate smaller than the outer size of the indoor unit 1. The installation plate 4 has a central portion at the upper wall end and side wall end of the wall surface 3. A plurality of temporary fixing holes 6 and 6a for temporarily fixing to the wall surface 3 and a reference hole 7 for determining a mounting position in the state of being applied.
And are drilled. The reference hole 7 and the temporary fixing holes 6 and 6a
Are provided so as to communicate with each other through a communication hole 8 and to be connected by a triangle. Further, in this embodiment, the temporary fixing holes 6 and 6a are
Are arranged symmetrically to the left and right of the reference hole 7.

Further, the installation plate 4 has locking pieces 9 for locking the indoor unit 1 on the upper left and right sides, and a plurality of screws 11 on the peripheral edge.
Thus, a plurality of screw holes 10 for fixing the installation plate 4 are formed in the wall surface 3.

The installation plate 4 thus formed is shown in FIG.
First, align the upper piece of the installation plate 4 with the swivel edge 5 that serves as the ceiling, and the left piece of the installation plate 4 with the wall end 12, respectively, and insert the screw 13 into the right temporary fixing hole 6a to install. Temporarily fix the plate 4. (Dotted line state in FIG. 3). Next, the installation plate 4 can be positioned by sliding the installation plate 4 diagonally to the lower right along the communication hole 8 and aligning the reference hole 7 with the temporary set screw 13. Then, screws 11 are screwed into a plurality of screw holes 10 in the peripheral portion (not shown) of the installation plate 4, and the temporary fixing screws 13 are finally tightened to fix the installation plate 4 to the wall surface 3. be able to. In the above embodiment, the mounting plate 4 was positioned from the left wall side of the room. However, when positioning is performed from the right wall side, the temporary fixing hole 6 is used to mount the mounting plate 4 in the same manner as in the above embodiment. It can be mounted on the wall.

[0012]

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION If the installation plate as described above is used, it can be easily attached to a wall surface in a room without using a gauge or a jig and without changing the orientation of the installation plate to vertical or horizontal. Work is convenient and convenient.
