DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an exterior filter for a wall-mounted air conditioner which is used to cover an upper surface and a front surface of an air conditioner so as not to stain a decorative grill serving as an intake port of the wall air conditioner.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a wall-mounted air conditioner is provided with an air filter inside a decorative grill, which protects a heat exchanger, that is, the inside of the air conditioner from dirt.

[0003]

For this reason, dirt on the decorative grill cannot be prevented, and especially with respect to those installed in the kitchen, it is very difficult to clean them due to heavy oil dirt. In addition, since the air filter has to be reused, when the oil adheres, it has been troublesome to clean the oil filter. An object of the present invention is to provide a filter capable of removing dirt in front of a decorative grill of a wall-mounted air conditioner in order to eliminate such a problem.

[0004]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the invention according to claim 1 of the present invention is provided so as to cover a top surface of a wall-mounted air conditioner or a decorative grill on a front surface. For this purpose, the upper shaft for mounting on the air conditioner is fixed to the upper part of the sheet-shaped and air-permeable filter material, and the lower shaft for attaching to the air conditioner is fixed to the lower part. I do. Also,
According to the second aspect of the present invention, the upper tubular portion is provided at a portion corresponding to the upper side of a sheet-shaped and air-permeable filter material so as to cover the upper surface or the front facing grille which is an intake port of the wall-mounted air conditioner. And an upper shaft for inserting the air conditioner into the air conditioner, and a lower cylindrical portion provided at a lower side thereof, and a lower shaft for inserting the air conditioner therein is inserted therein.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a basic example of the present invention. The structure of the filter is a sheet-like and air-permeable filter material 1 such as a non-woven fabric. The upper shaft 2 is fixed by a method such as bonding, and a lower shaft 3 such as a square bar is attached to a lower side portion so as to be attached to a wall-mounted air conditioner.
Is also fixed by a method such as adhesion. To use the air conditioner, just place it on top of the top face and the front face of the decorative grille so that it does not catch on the air outlet located on the bottom or bottom of the wall-mounted air conditioner. It is. After use, that is, when the filter material 1 becomes dirty, it should be disposable in principle.
By holding the lower shaft 3 with both hands and lifting it up so as to wrap up the dirt, the lower shaft 3 may be removed from the wall-mounted air conditioner together with the upper shaft 2 and discarded. It should be noted that if a fragile paper material or the like is used for the upper shaft 2 and the lower shaft 3, it is possible to fold the small shaft and discard it, so that such a material may be used.

FIG. 2 shows an application example of the present invention.
In order to make the storage shape as a product before use and the final shape as waste after use into a compact one with a short shaft length and four folds, the lower half is divided into two equal parts with the upper shaft 2 The shaft 3 is adopted. Note that the other embodiments of the invention follow the basic example.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 3 shows a basic example of the present invention. The structure is such that an upper tubular portion 4 is provided by sewing or the like at a portion corresponding to the upper side of a sheet-like and air-permeable filter material 1 such as a nonwoven fabric, and the like. An upper shaft 2 such as a strip-shaped plate is inserted for mounting on a wall-mounted air conditioner, and a lower cylindrical portion 5 is also provided by sewing or the like at a portion corresponding to a lower side. The lower shaft 3 such as a square bar is inserted. How to use
In order to prevent the air-conditioner from being hung on the air outlet located on the lower surface or the lower part of the front surface of the wall-mounted air conditioner, the air conditioner is simply placed on the upper surface or on the front side of the decorative grille, and then attached. After use, that is, when the filter material 1 becomes dirty, dispose it in principle as a disposable. At the beginning, hold the lower shaft 3 with both hands and lift it up so as to wrap up the dirt. You just have to remove it from the air conditioner and discard it. In addition, if the upper shaft 2 and the lower shaft 3 are made of a PVC material that is not easily broken, the structure can be removed from the upper tube portion 4 and the lower tube portion 5 so that the filter member 1 can be reused. Can be discarded at
It is also good to utilize such materials.

FIG. 4 shows an application example of the present invention.
In order to make the storage shape as a product before use and the final shape as waste after use into a compact one with a short shaft length and four folds, the lower half is divided into two equal parts with the upper shaft 2 The shaft 3 is adopted. Note that the other embodiments of the invention follow the basic example.

[0009]

When the present invention is applied to a wall-mounted air conditioner installed in a kitchen, a considerable amount of oil stains unique to the kitchen can be prevented, thereby greatly reducing the time required for cleaning the makeup grill and the built-in air filter. In addition, if the present invention is used even in a place where there is no oil stain, it naturally removes ordinary dust, so that there is almost no need to clean the makeup grill and the built-in air filter. In addition, the air filter built into the wall-mounted air conditioner tends to neglected regular cleaning because it is not directly visible.
Since it is always possible to visually confirm, it is easy to judge the time of replacement, and it is possible to use it to replace it when it loses its aesthetic appearance. In addition, if the present invention is applied in the off season, it can be used as a simple cover for storage, and it is not designed to be a filter at a glance,
For example, decorate the lower side so that it does not interfere,
If a pattern is applied to the surface of the filter so as not to lose air permeability, it can be used as a cosmetic for wall-mounted air conditioners.
