Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an air filter mounting device for an air conditioner, and particularly relates to an air conditioner in which an air suction part is formed in the upper part of the front grill of the air conditioner body and a sudden blowout part is formed in the lower part. Although the air filter is attached and detached from between the suction part and the blowout part in the machine, the air filter can be attached and detached very easily.

In a conventional air conditioner, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, an air intake section 23 is formed at the upper part of a front grille 22 that forms the front surface of the air conditioner main body 21, and an air outlet section is formed at the lower part. 24, and an attachment/detachment port 26 for attaching/detaching the air filter 25 between the suction portion 23 and the blowout portion 24.
is formed.

Note that a rail 27 for guiding the air filter 25 is formed on the back surface of the suction part 22, but since this rail 27 is straight and the air filter 25 is flat, when removing the air filter 25, , it must be pulled out straight on the extension line of the rail 27.

However, as a recent trend, the air conditioner main body 21 is becoming smaller in depth and thinner.
When the air filter 25 is pulled out, the air filter 25 or the hand holding it may hit or get caught on the blow-off part 24, making it difficult to remove the air filter 25 or damaging the hand. There was.

Therefore, the present invention provides an air filter mounting structure for an air conditioner that eliminates the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks, and one embodiment thereof will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3.

In the figure, 1 is the thin air conditioner body of the present invention, which consists of a front grill 2 and a base plate 3. The front grill 2 has a suction part 4 and an outlet part 5 formed therein, and a base plate. 3
A blower 6, an air guider 7, and a stabilizer 8 are provided, and a wind circuit is formed from these.

A heat exchanger 9 is provided on the windward side of this wind circuit.

The stabilizer 8 also serves to reinforce the water tray 10 made of a heat insulating material such as styrofoam.

Reference numeral 11 denotes an air filter formed into a curved shape with a convex back surface, which includes a filter 12, a filter frame 13, a protrusion 14 formed on one side of the lower side of the filter frame 13, and a knob provided on the lower edge of the filter frame 13. 15, which is fitted along a curved rail 16 that is convex toward the rear and is provided on the back surface of the suction portion 4 of the front grille 2.

In addition, 17 is the lower water tray, 18 is the front gnoll 2 and the base plate 3.
This is a screw to fix it to.

Reference numeral 19 denotes an attachment/detachment port formed between the suction section 4 and the blowout section 5 of the front grille 2 for attaching and detaching the air filter 12 .

According to the above-mentioned takeover, the air filter 11 is formed into a curved shape so as to convex rearward, and the rail 16 is also curved so as to convex rearward, so that the attachment/detachment direction is downward and toward the front, and the knob 15 Since there is a sufficient distance between the air filter 12 and the blowing part 5, the air filter 12 or your hand will not hit the knob 15 or the blowing part 5 when the air filter 12 is removed.

Conversely, the same applies when attaching the air filter 12, and the operation of attaching and detaching the air filter can be made extremely easy.

As is clear from the above embodiments, according to the air filter mounting structure for an air conditioner of the present invention, the air filter and the rail that guides the air filter are curved so as to be convex to the rear. Even though the attachment/detachment port is formed between the suction part and the blowout part, the air filter can not only be easily attached and detached, but also can be attached and detached in a curved direction, so it can be attached and detached smoothly, similar to the relationship between a sword and a scabbard. Effects such as sensation can be obtained.
