Has an end surface portion 18 parallel to the inner surface 13. Further, the tip end portion of the side wall portion 23 of the air outlet portion cover 91 overlaps the end surface portion 18 of the air outlet portion panel 71 and closes the gap portion S on the air outlet 3 side. Here, in order to bring the end portion of the side wall portion 23 of the outlet port cover 91 into close contact with the end surface portion 18 of the outlet port panel 71, the outer surface 14 and the end surface portion 18 of the outlet port panel 71 shown in FIG. The dimension W 1 between
It is preferable to set the dimension W 2 or more between the side wall portion 23 and the outer side wall portion 24 of the air outlet cover 91. In that case, in order to improve the dimensional accuracy of the outlet panel 71 and the outlet cover 91 so that there is no dimensional error and to open and close the cover panel 2 easily, the front surface of the outlet panel 71 is improved. A corner portion 19 between 12 and the end surface portion 18,
Also, it is preferable that the corners 99 between the inner surface of the outlet port cover 91 and the tip 26 are rounded to have a shape with a corner R.
