Description

 Air Conditioner

 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an air conditioner, and more particularly, to an air conditioner in which a gap between an intake panel in which an air inlet is formed and a discharge panel in which an air outlet is formed.

 In general, an air conditioner is used to cool or heat a room or purify the air by using a refrigeration cycle of a refrigerant consisting of a compressor, a condenser, an expansion mechanism, and an evaporator to create a more comfortable indoor environment for a user. .

The separation type and integral type are functionally the same, but the separation type is an indoor heat exchanger and an indoor blower installed in an indoor unit and an outdoor heat exchanger and an outdoor blower and a compressor installed in an outdoor unit to connect the indoor unit and the outdoor unit separated from each other by a refrigerant pipe. The indoor heat exchanger, the indoor blower, the outdoor heat exchanger, the outdoor blower, and the compressor are installed in one case.

The air conditioner as described above is formed with an air intake port through which air is sucked from the inside of the air conditioner and an air discharge port through which air that is air-conditioned from the inside of the air conditioner is formed. It is a trend to open and close the air inlet and the air outlet by installing a plate-shaped panel rather than a grill in each of the air outlets.

 In Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 10-2005-0078882, an air inlet panel is rotated on a lower panel on which an air inlet is formed to open and close an air inlet, and an air outlet port is rotated on an upper panel on which an air outlet is formed, to open and close an air outlet. The machine is disclosed, and the inlet panel and the outlet panel are connected to a rotation shaft connected to a motor provided in the main body to be rotated in the main body.

 However, the air conditioner according to the related art has a gap between the air inlet and the inlet panel when the inlet panel and the outlet panel are closed, and a gap exists between the air outlet port and the outlet panel, and there is a gap between the lower panel and the upper panel. Since the presence of the air conditioner, the appearance is not enhanced by the gaps when the air conditioner is stopped, there is a problem that the cleanliness is deteriorated if foreign matters are caught in the gaps.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide an air conditioner that can prevent the infiltration of foreign matter and keep clean by covering the gap around the air inlet and air outlet.

 Another object of the present invention is to provide an air conditioner in which the inlet panel is kept clean without foreign matters accumulated on the top of the inlet panel.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide an air conditioner capable of sharing parts of a motor for moving the outlet panel and a motor for moving the inlet panel.

Air conditioner according to the present invention for solving the above problems, the base; A cabinet installed above the base; A suction panel installed at a lower front of the cabinet and having an air inlet; An inlet panel formed larger than the air inlet to cover or open the air inlet; A discharge panel installed at an upper front of the cabinet and having an air discharge port; And a discharge port panel formed larger than the air discharge port to cover or open the air discharge port, and at least one of the suction port panel and the discharge port panel has a shielding portion covering the suction panel and the discharge panel.

The suction port panel and the discharge port panel each have a shielding part, and the other has a avoiding part avoiding the shielding part.

The shielding portion and the avoiding portion are formed to face opposite surfaces in the same direction.

The air conditioner includes: an inlet panel moving mechanism for moving the inlet panel to a position covering the air inlet at a periphery of the air inlet and to a periphery of the air inlet at a position covering the air inlet; The apparatus may further include an ejection panel panel moving mechanism configured to move the ejection opening panel to a position covering the air ejection opening around the air ejection opening and to move the ejection opening panel to the periphery of the air ejection opening at the position covering the air ejection opening.

Vanes rotatably disposed on the discharge port panel; The vane driving mechanism is provided on the discharge port panel to rotate the vane.

The shielding portion is formed in the intake panel, and the avoidance portion is formed in the discharge port panel.

In the air conditioner according to the present invention configured as described above, the inlet panel covers the air inlet and the periphery, the outlet panel covers the air outlet and the periphery, and the shield covers the gap between the intake panel and the discharge panel, Since the gap is not visible from the outside around the inlet and the air outlet, it can be upgraded and there is an advantage that foreign matter is not caught in the gap and can be kept clean.

In the air conditioner according to the present invention, since one of the inlet panel and the outlet panel has a shield and the other avoids the shield, the air inlet, the periphery and the air outlet, There is an advantage that can be covered as close as possible, and can be kept more clean.

In the air conditioner according to the present invention, the opposite surface of the shielding portion and the avoiding portion is formed to be inclined, and foreign matter penetrated between the shielding portion and the avoiding portion slips downward, and thus, the cleanliness is more improved.

In the air conditioner according to the present invention, the vane and the vane driving mechanism are installed in the discharge port panel, so that the vane and the vane driving mechanism is easier to service than the vane and the vane driving mechanism.

The air conditioner according to the present invention is formed by the vane and the vane driving mechanism to form a avoiding part on the heavier outlet port panel, and to form a shield on the inlet panel lighter than the outlet panel, thereby reducing the weight of the inlet panel and the weight of the outlet panel. Since it is as close as possible, the motor of the discharge port panel drive mechanism and the motor of the suction port panel drive mechanism can be constituted by a motor having the same capability, and there is an advantage that the parts can be shared.

The side of the air outlet port 76 and 78 is stably rotated to the side of the air outlet port 8 and 10, wherein the air outlet port 8, 10 and the periphery are discharge port The panels 76 and 78 are covered.

When the vane rotation motors 82 and 84 are stopped, the vanes 81 and 83 are rotated to block between the air discharge ports 8 and 10 and the discharge port panels 76 and 78, and the front panel ( 51 is inserted into the left and right spaces S1 and S2 and accommodated therein.

The inlet panels 36 and 46 and the outlet panel 76 and 78 as described above are in close contact with the main body 2 while being positioned on the same surface, and the shielding portions 39 and 49 are the suction panels 31 and 41. The gap T between the suction panels 31 and 41 and the discharge panel 51 is hidden from the outside while covering the gap T between the discharge panel 51 and the discharge panel 51. 46, the upper portion of the shield 39, 49 covers a portion of the lower portion of the discharge panel 76, 78.

In addition, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and the shielding portion may be formed in the discharge port panels 76 and 78, and the avoidance portion may be formed in the inlet panel 36 and 46. The gap between the suction panels 31 and 41 and the discharge panel 51 while the upper part of the upper part 36 and the lower part of the discharge port panel 76 and 78 overlaps one part while the other part covers the other part. It is of course possible to cover (T), and of course, various implementations are possible within the technical scope to which this invention belongs.
