Abstract

PURPOSE:To automatically change the direction of an airflow in accordance whether the airflow is warm or cool, by fitting a shape memory alloy and an ordinary spring to an airflow direction plate. CONSTITUTION:The shape memory alloy 11 and an end of an ordinary spring 12 are fitted to the airflow direction plate 8 provided at a blow-off port 7, and the other end of the spring 12 is fixed to the periphery of the port 7. The spring constant of the spring 12 is set to be larger than that of the alloy 11 at normal temperature and smaller than that of the alloy at the time of returning to a memorized shape. Accordingly, the airflow direction can be automatically changed by sensing the temperature of the blown-off airflow by a simple construction, and comfortableness can be enhanced.

The present invention aims to improve the above-mentioned drawbacks. In other words, by attaching a shape memory alloy and a general spring to the wind direction plate that returns to its original shape when the temperature reaches a certain temperature, the wind direction plate automatically rotates and changes the wind direction when hot or cold air is blown out. It is.

The details of the present invention will be explained below with reference to FIGS. 1, 2, and 3. Figure 1 shows the indoor unit of the air conditioner, with the base of the IW''i unit, 2 the fan that blows air, 3 the rear casing that guides the air from fan 2,
Reference numeral 4 denotes a front casing, which also functions as a tray for receiving dew from the heat exchanger 5 during cooling. 6 is a filter that removes dust etc. from the air, 7 is an air outlet formed by the front casing 4 and the rear casing 3, 8 is a wind direction plate that changes the direction of air flow, and the solid line indicates the cold air 1) during cooling. This shows the condition where the air is installed so that air can be aired horizontally to cool a wide area of the living space. The dotted line indicates that warm air C is blown downward during heating,
This shows how it is installed so that it can be heated efficiently from the floor.
ai4, suction airflow. Detailed structure for automatically rotating this wind direction plate 8 by cooling and heating f: 21ヅㅅ, and 0. -4-01° shown in Fig. 3 is the rotation axis of the wind direction plate 8, 13
is a stopper of the wind direction plate 8. Reference numeral 11 is a metal alloy with a shape that returns to its memorized shape when exposed to warm air, and 12 is a general spring, each of which is fixed at both ends around the wind direction plates 8 and 0, and the blowout lower. Here, since the shape memory alloy 11 has a property that the force when layered into a memorized shape is several times stronger than at room temperature, the force for general springs should be set to an intermediate value. With this structure, when hot air C flows through the blowout lower, the shape memory alloy 11 overcomes the tensile force of the spring 12 and enters the contracted state shown by the third dotted line, causing the wind direction plate 8 to rotate counterclockwise. However, the wind direction is downward, increasing the heating effect. However, when cold air flows through the blowout lower, the tensile force of the shape memory alloy 11 is weakened, and the wind direction plate 5 returns to its original position, cooling the room extensively.

In this way, the present invention provides a wind direction control device that has a simple structure, senses the temperature of the blown airflow, automatically changes the wind direction, and has excellent determination performance.
