Hereinafter, the operation of the integrated air conditioner according to the present invention having the configuration as described above.

The air conditioner of the present invention can be operated in the cooling and heating mode, the present specification will be described taking the case of operating in the cooling mode as an example. In the cooling mode, the air conditioner discharges heat from the space for air conditioning to the outside.

To this end, when the air conditioner is driven, the indoor fan 410 is rotated in the room side, and the air in the space for air conditioning is sucked into the air conditioner through the suction grill 210 of the front panel 200.

The air sucked through the suction grill 210 is purged by the air filter 220 and heat exchanged with the working fluid of the heat exchange cycle while passing through the indoor heat exchanger 310. Air that passes through the indoor heat exchanger 310 and heats to a relatively low temperature is sucked into the indoor fan 410.

Air sucked into the indoor fan 410 and discharged again is guided by the air guides 320 and 340 and flows to the discharge guide 250. In addition, the air flowing into the discharge guide 250 is discharged into the space for air conditioning through the discharge grill 244. The discharged air circulates inside the space for air conditioning to increase the temperature, and then enters the air conditioner through the suction grill 210 again.

Next, the working fluid which receives heat from the indoor heat exchanger 310 is transferred to the outdoor heat exchanger 830 of the outdoor side to exchange heat with the air sucked from the outside to discharge the heat to the outside.

That is, when the blowing fan 820 is driven and rotated by the outdoor motor 810, outdoor air is supplied through the suction grille, the cover grille 660, and the lower grill 150 of the cabinet 600. It is sucked to the outdoor side of the conditioner and flows between the shroud 130 and 850 and the barrier 120 of the base pan 100. The air guided between the shrouds 130 and 850 and the barrier 120 is sucked into the blowing fan 820 and flows to the outdoor heat exchanger 830.

As the air passes through the outdoor heat exchanger 830, heat is exchanged with the working fluid of the heat exchange cycle. Since the air is in the cooling mode, the air is discharged to the rear of the cabinet 600 of the air conditioner by receiving heat from the working fluid.

Meanwhile, the installation of the air conditioner will be described with reference to FIGS. 11 and 12. First, the curtain 720 is inserted into the curtain frame 710 through the curtain insertion opening 714. In this case, as shown in FIG. 11, the curtains 720 are inserted in a state in which adjacent flat portions 721 are folded to be in close contact with each other. When the curtain 720 is inserted through the curtain insertion hole 714, the first hook strap 724 is hooked to the hook piece 711 ′ so that one end of the curtain 720 is connected to the vertical bar 711. It is fixed.

As described above, the lower one of the horizontal bars 712 of the curtain frame 710 into which the curtain 720 is inserted is inserted into the guide hole 170 of the base fan 100, and the upper one is the outdoor side cover 650. It is inserted into the insertion channel 662 formed in the cover step 660 of the.

When the curtain frame 710 is initially inserted into the insertion channel 662, the stripping prevention jaw 718 is guided along the tip of one side insertion guide piece 664, and the insertion of the curtain frame 710 proceeds. As the removal prevention jaw 718 is pressed, the elastic channel 719 is compressed. The stripping prevention jaw 718 is restored once the insertion guide piece 664 passes through, and one side of the stripping prevention jaw 718 hangs on the insertion guide piece 664 so that the curtain frame 710 does not fall out arbitrarily. do.

In this state, the curtain frame 710 has the horizontal bar 712 sliding along the insertion channel 662 of the guide hole 170 and the cover step 660 to the outside of the cabinet 600. You can adjust the degree of protrusion.

That is, when the air conditioner is installed in the window (W), the curtain 720 to shield the gap between the window (W) and the side of the air conditioner. Once the air conditioner with the curtain assembly 700 is mounted on the window W, the curtain frame 710 is moved along the guide hole 170 and the cover step 660 to the vertical bar ( 711 is in close contact with one side of the window (W). The second hook strap 726 of the curtain 720 is hooked on the hook piece 630 of the cabinet 600 to shield the gap between the window W and the air conditioner.

The rights of the present invention are not limited to the embodiments described above, but are defined by the claims, and those skilled in the art can make various modifications and adaptations within the scope of the claims. It is self-evident.

In the curtain assembly of the integrated air conditioner according to the present invention as described in detail above, when the curtain is folded and inserted into the curtain frame through the curtain insertion hole, one end of the curtain is fixed to the curtain frame, thereby making the assembly work relatively easy. You can get it.

In addition, since the curtain is mounted on the outer surface of the cabinet, a separate screw or the like is not used, so that the curtain mounting work is relatively easy.
