INSTRUCTIONS: I: TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an air conditioner having a function of automatically cleaning an air filter provided at an air intake of an indoor unit. 5 [Previous skill is not good] In the past, the filter device of the air conditioner was installed in front of the heat exchanger to prevent dust from intruding into the interior of the indoor unit, and the air filter was constructed to be detachable and free to clean the attached dust by hand. . The filter device thus constructed must not only be frequently maintained, but also until the maintenance period, the air filter screen is gradually blocked, resulting in a decrease in the amount of air passing through the heat exchanger and a decrease in air conditioning capacity, resulting in an increase in power consumption. Therefore, in order to reduce the maintenance time of the air filter, there is an automatic cleaning device for regularly cleaning the dust adhering to the air filter by a brush (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). [Patent Document 1] Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2001-99479. However, in the automatic cleaning device described in Patent Document 1, since the brush and the air filter rub against each other due to mutual friction, the brush is worn. Or deformation to reduce performance and other issues. Also, once a period of time has elapsed, 20 must collect the dust collected after brushing off, and the maintenance time cannot be greatly reduced. The object of the present invention is to provide a view of the above problems in the prior art, and to provide a means for automatically absorbing all of the clean air filter to reduce maintenance, and at the same time, even if the indoor unit body is set to be small, it will not be 5 1344531. And the original performance of the air conditioner. In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is an air conditioner having an indoor unit that blows air that is heat-exchanged by a heat exchanger, and the air conditioner includes a dust air filter for removing the heat exchanger through the heat exchanger. The air filter is slidably movable relative to the suction hole to attract the suction nozzle attached to the dust of the air filter, and a suction device that connects the suction nozzle. When the air conditioner is in operation, the suction nozzle is housed in the suction nozzle. In the accommodating portion at a position that does not overlap with the aforementioned air filter. Preferably, the accommodating portion of the suction nozzle is provided in the filter frame constituting the air filter, and the accommodating portion of the suction nozzle is provided with positioning means for positioning the position of the suction nozzle. Further, the accommodating portion of the suction nozzle may be provided in front of the refrigeration cycle line portion or between the air filter and the power supply box installed inside the indoor unit body. Further, the dust separating member is attached to the suction nozzle along the suction hole, and the dust adhering to the air filter can be scraped off by the dust separating member and can be sucked by the suction hole. In this case, it is preferable that the suction nozzle is not in contact with the surface of the accommodating portion opposed to the dust separating member when the suction nozzle is in the accommodating state. [Effects of the Invention] Since the present invention automatically cleans the air filter by the suction nozzle, the maintenance work can be reduced, and at the same time, when the air conditioner is operated, the suction nozzle can be accommodated at a position that does not overlap the air filter. The basic performance of the air conditioner is utilized. 6 In particular, the accommodating portion of the suction nozzle is disposed in the frame of the air filter, and the filter device can be easily assembled into the indoor unit body after completion of the filter device to reduce the time of the fit. Further, when the positioning means for the suction nozzle is provided in the nozzle housing portion, the suction nozzle can be reliably stored in the predetermined position. In particular, if the nozzle housing portion is disposed in front of the refrigeration cycle line portion or between the air filter and the power supply box, the product space can be effectively utilized, and the indoor unit body can be miniaturized. Further, by installing the dust separating member along the suction hole and sucking the dust adhering to the air filter by the dust separating member and sucking it by the suction hole, the entire air filter can be more efficiently cleaned. In this case, when the suction nozzle is set in the storage state, the dust separation member can be maintained in a predetermined shape for a long period of time without abutting against the surface of the accommodating portion facing the dust separating member, and the air filter cleaning is not reduced. effect.

Figs. 1 to 5 show a filter device for an air conditioner according to the present invention, and in Figs. 1 and 2, a dust filter 5 for removing air passing through a heat exchanger is supported by the filter frame 1 And a suction nozzle 3 movable along the surface of the air filter 2 is provided. By a pair of guide rails 4 provided at the lower end of the filter frame 1, the suction nozzle 3 can maintain a very narrow gap with the air filter 2 and smoothly move left and right. The driving means for driving the suction nozzles 3 to the left and right sides is not shown, but it may be configured such that a driving force is generated by a motor such as a gear. The suction nozzle 3 is connected to one end of the suction duct 5, and the other end of the suction duct 5 is connected to the suction device 6. In order not to hinder the movement of the suction nozzle 3, the suction duct 5 forms a bendable catheter. Further, the suction device 6 is connected to the exhaust duct 7 that is guided to the outside. The dust adhering to the open filter 2 is sucked by the suction nozzle 3, and then discharged to the outside through the suction duct 5, the suction device 6, and the exhaust duct 7. Further, the air filter 2 is composed of a filter, a horizontal bar 2a, a shuttle 2b, and a horizontal bar 2c. Further, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the suction nozzle 3 includes a nozzle 8 that constitutes a flow path for attracting wind, a film 9 that surrounds the nozzle 8 and is slidably attached, and a support film 9 that transmits driving force. A gear 14, and rollers 15a, 15b, 15c for supporting and smoothing the drive film 9 are provided. The nozzle 8 is provided with a slit-like opening 10 having a length corresponding to the longitudinal length of the air filter 2 on the side surface of the air filter 2. The film 9 is formed in a ring shape and surrounds the outer periphery of the nozzle 8 to cover the nozzle opening portion 10, and the surface of the air filter 2 side is supported by the film guide 17, and the film guide 17 is formed with a nozzle opposite thereto.

The film 9 is provided with a slit-shaped suction hole 11 and the film 9 is attached such that the suction hole 11 faces the nozzle opening 10 and the air filter 2. A plurality of equally spaced drive holes are formed on both sides of the film 9, and the gears 14 coupled to the stepping motor are freely slidable in either direction of the up and down direction by engaging the drive holes. According to the above configuration, the air volume contracted by the suction device 6 is contracted in the suction hole 11, so that a strong wind speed can be generated in the suction hole 11 portion even if the air volume is small, that is, a small output can exert a strong suction force. The dust on the air filter sucked by the strong attraction enters the inside of the nozzle 8 from the suction hole 11 through the nozzle opening portion 10, and is discharged to the outside through the suction duct 5, the suction device 6, and the exhaust duct 7. Further, each time the suction nozzle 3 is driven left and right, the position of the suction hole 11 provided in the film 9 is changed in the vertical direction, whereby all of the clean air filter 2 can be sucked. In the present invention, after the suction cleaning is completed, the suction nozzle 3 is housed at a position that does not impair the basic performance of the air conditioner. In other words, as shown in Fig. 1, after the suction nozzle 3 sucks the clean air filter 2, the suction nozzle 3 is housed in a position that does not overlap the air filter 2 (non-opposing position), so that the air conditioner can be sufficiently utilized. Basic performance. In other words, when the air conditioner is operated, the suction nozzle 3 is housed at a position that does not overlap the air filter 2, and the suction nozzle 3 does not become an obstacle when the air conditioner is operated. Therefore, the basic performance of the air conditioner can be ensured. . Hereinafter, a specific example of the nozzle housing space will be described. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the accommodating portion 1a of the suction nozzle 3 is provided in a part of the air filter frame 1 (the right end of the filter frame 1 at the right end in FIGS. 1 and 2). And when the air conditioner is running, "and the bow and mouth are viewed in the storage portion la. This structure can be easily assembled in the interior of the indoor unit body as a finished filter device as shown in the figure, and the assembly man-hour can be eliminated. As shown in Fig. 6, the receiving portion of the suction nozzle 3 is provided with the positioning device 18' of the suction nozzle 3, and the storage position of the nozzle 3 during the operation of the air conditioner is set to a predetermined position. Nozzle. The positioning device _ is constituted by, for example, a contact type position sensor, and after cleaning the air filter 2, once the suction bow nozzle 3 is moved to the accommodating portion "and contacts the positioning device" 8 as shown in Fig. 6, the positioning device 18 The control device (not shown) outputs an ON signal, and the control unit stops the suction nozzle 3 at the position. Further, in the example shown in Fig. 6, the housing portion 3 of the suction nozzle 3 It is disposed between the air filter 2 and the power box located at the end of the indoor unit body 21, or as shown in Fig. 7, is disposed in front of the refrigeration cycle line 。. This structure can have a living product space, and Further, in the above-described embodiment, the dust adhering to the air filter 2 is sucked and sucked to the suction hole 11 formed in the suction nozzle 3, but it may be along the suction, 1 amp. The flat dust separating member, and when the air filter 2 is cleaned, the dust adhering to the air transition device 2 is scraped off by the dust member, and is simultaneously made by the suction hole 11. At this time, it may be configured to be opposed to the suction nozzle. The face of the accommodating portion 13 of the 3 is further attached to the extension surface of the air filter 2 When the suction nozzle 3 is in the state of being accommodated in the sling portion 1a, the dust separating member is reduced to the surface of the accommodating portion 1a. [Industrial Applicability] The filter device of the air conditioner of the present invention can be automatically Dust and discharge the dust attached to the air filter, and maintain the basic performance. Therefore, it can also be used for other commercial applications using filters. [Simplified Schematic] Figure 1 is installed in the interior of the air conditioner of the present invention.
