The refrigerant of evaporates to absorb external heat.

Therefore, when the circulation fan 8 is rotated by the driving of the motor 3, the indoor air is sucked into the indoor space 10 along the indoor suction port 10b, and then the ambient air is cooled while passing through the evaporator 7. . Therefore, the cooled indoor air is discharged into the room through the indoor discharge port 10a and the room is cooled.

On the other hand, when condensate is generated in the heat exchange process of the evaporator 7, a predetermined amount of condensate is collected in the lower base 11, and the more condensate is discharged to the outside through the discharge hole 11a and the hose 11b. do.

As described above, the conventional window type air conditioner remains condensed in the lower base when the air conditioner is not used for a long time, such as in winter, thereby causing corrosion of the internal equipment, thereby shortening the life of the air conditioner.

In addition, bacteria, such as breeding in the condensate accumulated in the lower base and there was also another problem unsanitary due to the generation of odor.

The present invention was created in view of the above problems, and improves the drainage structure of the window type air conditioner to completely drain the condensate accumulated on the bottom when the air conditioner is not used, thereby preventing corrosion of the internal device caused by moisture of the condensate. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a drainage structure of the sanitary window type air conditioner.
