  • This indoor unit includes a decorative panel in a lower surface of a box-shaped body case, and in this decorative panel, an inlet port and an outlet port of air are provided.
  • An inside of the body case is divided into a machine chamber and a heat exchange chamber by a partition plate, in the machine chamber, a fan unit is arranged, and in the heat exchange chamber, a heat exchanger, a drain pan, a drain pump and the like are arranged. Air sucked from the inlet port by the fan unit is blown from the outlet port after being subjected to heat exchange with the heat exchanger to adjust indoor temperature and humidity.

  • control board and the terminal block inside the electric component box are arranged side by side, and the control board is arranged in a state where long sides thereof are lateral (horizontal). This can make a height dimension of the electric component box small, thereby contributing to the thinning of the body case.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide an indoor unit for an air conditioning device that can make a height dimension of an electric component box small to achieve thinning of a body case without arranging long sides of a control board horizontally.

  • a height dimension of the control board can be made as small as possible without arranging long sides of the control board laterally (horizontally). This can also make small a height dimension of the electric component box containing this control board, which enables thinning of the body case. Moreover, since the long sides of the control board need not be lateral, a lateral dimension of the electric component box can also be made small, which increases a freedom degree of an arrangement location of the electric component box. Furthermore, since the mounting surface of the control board is arranged obliquely downward, inspection and the like of the control board can be easily performed through the opening.
  • a longitudinal dimension of the control board may be larger than a height dimension of the body case.
  • the slant arrangement of the control board with respect to the vertical direction allows the control board to be appropriately contained in the body case in a state where the long sides of the control board are arranged longitudinally (in a direction crossing the horizontal).
  • a terminal block is contained detachably inside the electric component box, and that this terminal block is arranged so as to overlap a planar region of the control board within a range of a height of the control board.
  • the above-described configuration enables the control board and the terminal block to be arranged compactly, and the electric component box to be downsized.
  • a weak current circuit is provided on a lower side in the mounting surface of the control board, and that a strong current circuit is provided on an upper side therein.
  • the weak current circuit controlling the weak current part is mounted on the lower side close to the opening for maintenance, which can enhance maintenance performance.
  • control board is fixed to the electric component box by a screw in at least one side, and is locked to the electric component box in at least other two sides.
  • the above-described configuration can prevent the control board from floating up with respect to the electric component box, when vibration in a direction perpendicular to a plate surface of the control board is applied.
  • the height dimension of the electric component box can be made small without arranging the long sides of the control board laterally, and the thinning of the body case in which this electric component box is provided can be achieved.

  • the terminal block 61 is arranged within a range of a height of the control board 60 , as shown in FIG. 7 , and is arranged within a range in the front-back direction and in the right-left direction (within a planar region) of the control board 60 , as shown in FIG. 8 . Accordingly, the control board 60 and the terminal block 61 can be arranged inside the electric component box 59 compactly.
  • the terminal block 61 can be detached from the electric component box 59 together with the attachment bracket 90 by detaching the screw 91 . Therefore, when the maintenance of the control board 60 is performed, detaching the terminal block 61 together with the attachment bracket 90 can prevent the terminal block 61 from being impeditive. Moreover, with the attachment bracket 90 , since only the lower leg portion 90 b is fixed by the screw 91 , and the upper leg portion 90 a is only locked to the electric component box 59 , the attachment bracket 90 can be detached from the electric component box 59 easily and quickly.
  • control board 60 inside the electric component box 59 does not include the case 81 , but may be made up of only the board body 80 .
  • the mounting surface 80 a is arranged obliquely backward and downward, it may be arranged obliquely forward and downward, or obliquely rightward or leftward, and downward.
  • the control board 60 may be fixed to the electric component box 59 by two or more screws.
  • the whole of the terminal block 61 need not be arranged within the planar region of the control board 60 , but at least a part of the terminal block 61 only needs to be arranged (overlapped) in the relevant planar region.
  • the present invention can be applied not only to the ceiling embedded type indoor unit 11 but also to a hanging type indoor unit.
