背景技術  Background art
[0002] 従来、室内の床面に置かれた状態で使用される床置き型空気調和機が知られてい る。この床置き型空気調和機には吸込み口と吹出し口とが設けられており、室内の空 気が吸込みロカ 吸い込まれ、温度調整や空気清浄ィ匕などが行われた後に吹出し ロカも室内へと吹き出される (特許文献 1参照)。  [0002] Conventionally, a floor-standing air conditioner that is used in a state where it is placed on a floor surface in an room is known. This floor-mounted air conditioner is provided with a suction port and a blow-out port, so that air in the room is sucked in and the air is sucked in, and after the temperature is adjusted and air is cleaned, the blower is moved into the room.

発明が解決しょうとする課題  Problems to be solved by the invention
[0003] 上記のような床置き型空気調和機では、前面に多数のスリットが設けられた吸い込 みグリルが設けられることが多いが、正面視における美観向上の観点から、比較的少 数の開口力もなる吸込み開口を設けることが考えられる。この場合、このような吸込み 開口を通して内部の構造が外部から見える恐れがあるため、美観のさらなる向上の 観点から吸込み開口の奥にカバー部を設けることが有効である。このカバー部は、吸 込み開口の下端力 後斜め上方に延び、その上端は吸込み開口の上端と同じ高さ に位置している。このカバー部により、内部の構造を外部力 見え難くすることができ る。しかし、その反面、カバー部が設けられることにより、吸込み開口力も空気が吸い 込まれ難くなり、吸い込み抵抗を増大させてしまう恐れがある。 [0003] The floor-standing air conditioner as described above is often provided with a suction grille having a large number of slits on the front surface, but from the viewpoint of improving the aesthetics when viewed from the front, a relatively small number is used. It is conceivable to provide a suction opening that also has an opening force. In this case, since there is a possibility that the internal structure can be seen from the outside through such a suction opening, it is effective to provide a cover portion behind the suction opening from the viewpoint of further improving the aesthetic appearance. The cover portion extends obliquely upward after the lower end force of the suction opening, and its upper end is positioned at the same height as the upper end of the suction opening. With this cover part, the internal structure can be made difficult to see the external force. On the other hand, however, the provision of the cover part makes it difficult for air to be sucked into the suction opening force, which may increase the suction resistance.
本発明の課題は、内部の構造を外部力 見え難くすることができると共に吸い込み 抵抗の増大を抑えることができる床置き型空気調和機を提供することにある。  An object of the present invention is to provide a floor-standing type air conditioner that can make an internal structure difficult to see an external force and can suppress an increase in suction resistance.
課題を解決するための手段  Means for solving the problem
[0004] 第 1発明に係る床置き型空気調和機は、前面パネルと、第 1カバー部とを備える。 [0004] A floor-standing air conditioner according to a first invention includes a front panel and a first cover part.
前面パネルは、底面から 600mm以下の高さに位置する第 1吸込み開口を有し、前 面に設けられる。第 1カバー部は、第 1吸込み開口の下端力 後斜め上方まで延び る。そして、第 1カバー部の上端と第 1吸込み開口の上端とを結ぶ線と、第 1吸込み 開口の上端を含む水平面とが成す角度 dlは、 0° < dl≤45° を満たす。 The front panel has a first suction opening located at a height of 600 mm or less from the bottom, and is provided on the front. The first cover extends diagonally upward after the lower end force of the first suction opening. The An angle dl formed by a line connecting the upper end of the first cover portion and the upper end of the first suction opening and a horizontal plane including the upper end of the first suction opening satisfies 0 ° <dl ≦ 45 °.
この床置き型空気調和機では、第 1吸込み開口は底面力 600mm以下の高さに あり、比較的低い位置にある。従って、第 1吸込み開口は使用者の目線よりも低い位 置にあることが多くなり、使用者は吸込み開口を斜め上方から見下ろすことになる。こ のため、上記のような角度範囲は使用者にとって死角となり易い。従って、角度 dlが 上記のような角度範囲を満たすように第 1カバー部を設けることにより、外部力 の見 え難さをできる限り維持すると共に、カバー部材の上端の位置を低くすることができる 。これにより、この床置き型空気調和機では、内部の構造を外部から見え難くすること ができると共に吸い込み抵抗の増大を抑えることができる。  In this floor-mounted air conditioner, the first suction opening is at a relatively low position with a bottom force of 600mm or less. Therefore, the first suction opening is often located at a position lower than the user's line of sight, and the user looks down on the suction opening from obliquely above. For this reason, the angle range as described above tends to be a blind spot for the user. Therefore, by providing the first cover portion so that the angle dl satisfies the angle range as described above, it is possible to maintain the visibility of the external force as much as possible and to lower the position of the upper end of the cover member. . Thereby, in this floor-standing type air conditioner, it is possible to make the internal structure difficult to see from the outside and to suppress an increase in suction resistance.
[0005] 第 2発明に係る床置き型空気調和機は、第 1発明の床置き型空気調和機であって 、角度 dlは、 5° ≤dl≤35° を満たす。 [0005] The floor-standing air conditioner according to the second invention is the floor-standing air conditioner according to the first invention, and the angle dl satisfies 5 ° ≤ dl ≤ 35 °.
この床置き型空気調和機では、上記の角度 dlが上記の範囲を満たすことにより、 内部の構造の見え難さと、吸い込み抵抗の増大の抑制とをより適切に調和させること ができる。  In this floor-mounted air conditioner, when the angle dl satisfies the above range, it is possible to more appropriately harmonize the difficulty of seeing the internal structure and the suppression of the increase in the suction resistance.
[0006] 第 3発明に係る床置き型空気調和機は、第 1発明または第 2発明の床置き型空気 調和機であって、第 1吸込み開口の高さ方向寸法は 5mm以上である。  [0006] The floor-standing air conditioner according to the third invention is the floor-standing air conditioner according to the first or second invention, wherein the first suction opening has a height direction dimension of 5 mm or more.
第 1吸込み開口の高さ方向寸法があまりに小さければ、内部の構造が外部から見 え難くなり、カバー部は不要となる。しかし、第 1吸込み開口の高さ方向寸法が 5mm 以上の場合は、内部の構造を外部力 見え難くするためにカバー部が必要であり、 本発明が特に有効となる。  If the height dimension of the first suction opening is too small, the internal structure becomes difficult to see from the outside, and the cover part is unnecessary. However, when the height direction dimension of the first suction opening is 5 mm or more, a cover portion is necessary to make the internal structure difficult to see the external force, and the present invention is particularly effective.
[0007] 第 4発明に係る床置き型空気調和機は、第 1発明または第 2発明の床置き型空気 調和機であって、前面パネルは、底面から 600mm以下の高さに位置する第 2吸込 み開口をさらに有する。また、この床置き型空気調和機は、第 2吸込み開口の下端か ら後斜め上方まで延びる第 2カバー部をさらに備える。そして、第 2カバー部の上端と 第 2吸込み開口の上端とを結ぶ線と、第 2吸込み開口上端を含む水平面とが成す角 度 d2が、 0° < d2≤45° を満たす。  [0007] A floor-standing air conditioner according to a fourth invention is the floor-standing air conditioner according to the first or second invention, wherein the front panel is located at a height of 600 mm or less from the bottom surface. It further has a suction opening. The floor-standing air conditioner further includes a second cover portion that extends obliquely upward from the lower end of the second suction opening. The angle d2 formed by the line connecting the upper end of the second cover part and the upper end of the second suction opening and the horizontal plane including the upper end of the second suction opening satisfies 0 ° <d2≤45 °.
この床置き型空気調和機では、第 2カバー部に関する角度 d2についても第 1カバ 一部に関する角度 dlと同様の条件が満たされる。このため、複数の吸込み開口が設 けられる場合にも、内部の構造を外部力も見え難くすることができると共に吸い込み 抵抗の増大を抑えることができる。 In this floor-mounted air conditioner, the first cover is also used for the angle d2 with respect to the second cover. The same conditions as for angle dl for some are satisfied. For this reason, even when a plurality of suction openings are provided, it is possible to make the internal structure difficult to see the external force and to suppress an increase in suction resistance.
[0008] 第 5発明に係る床置き型空気調和機は、第 1発明から第 4発明のいずれかの床置 き型空気調和機であって、第 1吸込み開口は、前面パネルの上部に設けられる。また 、前面パネルは、第 3吸込み開口をさらに有する。第 3吸込み開口は、前面パネルの 下部に設けられ第 1吸込み開口よりも高さ方向寸法が大きい開口である。そして、こ の床置き型空気調和機は、第 3吸込み開口の下端力 後斜め上方まで延びる第 3力 バー部をさらに備える。  [0008] A floor-standing air conditioner according to a fifth invention is the floor-standing air conditioner according to any of the first to fourth inventions, wherein the first suction opening is provided at an upper portion of the front panel. It is done. The front panel further has a third suction opening. The third suction opening is an opening provided in the lower part of the front panel and having a height dimension larger than that of the first suction opening. The floor-standing air conditioner further includes a third force bar portion extending obliquely upward after the lower end force of the third suction opening.
この床置き型空気調和機では、第 1吸込み開口は前面パネルの上部に設けられて いる。一般に、吸込み開口が上方に設けられる程、使用者の視線の角度が浅くなり、 内部の構造が見え易くなる。しかし、この床置き型空気調和機では、第 1カバー部は 、上記の角度 dlに関する条件を満たすことにより、内部の構造の見え難くすることが できる。一方、第 3吸込み開口は前面パネルの下部に設けられるため、使用者の視 線の角度がきつくなり、内部の構造が見え難い。このため、第 3吸込み開口に関して は、第 1吸込み開口よりも高さ方向寸法を大きくしても、内部の構造が見え難い。この ため、内部の構造を見え難くすると共に、吸い込み抵抗を低減することができる。  In this floor-mounted air conditioner, the first suction opening is provided at the top of the front panel. Generally, the more the suction opening is provided above, the shallower the line of sight of the user and the easier it is to see the internal structure. However, in this floor-mounted air conditioner, the first cover portion can make the internal structure difficult to see by satisfying the condition regarding the angle dl. On the other hand, since the third suction opening is provided at the lower part of the front panel, the angle of the user's line of sight is tight and the internal structure is difficult to see. For this reason, the internal structure of the third suction opening is difficult to see even if the height dimension is larger than that of the first suction opening. For this reason, it is difficult to see the internal structure and the suction resistance can be reduced.
[0009] 第 6発明に係る床置き型空気調和機は、第 5発明の床置き型空気調和機であって 、第 3カバー部の上端と第 3吸込み開口の上端とを結ぶ線と、第 3吸込み開口の上端 を含む水平面とが成す角度 d3が、 0° < d2≤45° を満たす。  [0009] A floor-standing air conditioner according to a sixth aspect of the present invention is the floor-standing air conditioner according to the fifth aspect of the present invention, wherein a line connecting the upper end of the third cover part and the upper end of the third suction opening, 3An angle d3 with the horizontal plane including the upper end of the suction opening satisfies 0 ° <d2 ≤ 45 °.
この床置き型空気調和機では、第 3カバー部について角度 d3が上記の条件を満た す。このため、第 3カバー部についても、内部の構造を外部から見え難くすることがで きると共に吸い込み抵抗の増大をさらに抑えることができる。  In this floor-mounted air conditioner, the angle d3 satisfies the above conditions for the third cover. For this reason, the internal structure of the third cover portion can be made difficult to see from the outside, and an increase in the suction resistance can be further suppressed.
[0010] 第 7発明に係る床置き型空気調和機は、第 5発明または第 6発明の床置き型空気 調和機であって、第 3カバー部の上端と第 3吸込み開口上端とを結ぶ線と、第 3吸込 み開口上端を含む水平面とが成す角度 d3は、角度 dlより大きい。  [0010] A floor-standing air conditioner according to a seventh invention is the floor-standing air conditioner according to the fifth or sixth invention, wherein the line connects the upper end of the third cover part and the upper end of the third suction opening. And the angle d3 formed by the horizontal plane including the upper end of the third suction opening is larger than the angle dl.
この床置き型空気調和機では、第 3カバー部に関する角度 d3が第 1カバー部に関 する角度 dlよりも大きい。このため、第 3吸込み開口での吸い込み抵抗をより低減す ることができる。また、第 3吸込み開口は、第 1吸込み開口よりも低い位置にあるため、 第 1吸込み開口よりも死角が広ぐ内部の構造が見え難い。これにより、この床置き型 空気調和機では、第 3吸込み開口に関して、内部の構造を外部から見え難くすること ができると共に吸い込み抵抗の増大をより抑えることができる。 In this floor-mounted air conditioner, the angle d3 related to the third cover part is larger than the angle dl related to the first cover part. For this reason, the suction resistance at the third suction opening is further reduced. Can. In addition, since the third suction opening is located at a position lower than the first suction opening, it is difficult to see the internal structure having a wider dead angle than the first suction opening. Thereby, in this floor-standing type air conditioner, the internal structure of the third suction opening can be made difficult to see from the outside, and the increase in suction resistance can be further suppressed.
発明の効果  The invention's effect
[0011] 第 1発明に係る床置き型空気調和機では、第 1吸込み開口は底面力も 600mm以 下の高さにあり、比較的低い位置にある。従って、第 1吸込み開口は使用者の目線よ りも低い位置にあることが多くなり、使用者は吸込み開口を斜め上方力 見下ろすこ とになる。このため、上記のような角度範囲は使用者にとって死角となり易い。従って 、角度 dlが上記のような角度範囲を満たすように第 1カバー部を設けることにより、外 部からの見え難さをできる限り維持すると共に、カバー部材の上端の位置を低くする ことができる。これにより、この床置き型空気調和機では、内部の構造を外部から見え 難くすることができると共に吸い込み抵抗の増大を抑えることができる。  [0011] In the floor-standing air conditioner according to the first aspect of the invention, the first suction opening is at a relatively low position with a bottom force of 600 mm or less. Therefore, the first suction opening is often located at a position lower than the user's line of sight, and the user looks down on the suction opening with an oblique upward force. For this reason, the angle range as described above tends to be a blind spot for the user. Therefore, by providing the first cover portion so that the angle dl satisfies the angle range as described above, it is possible to maintain the visibility from the outside as much as possible and to lower the position of the upper end of the cover member. . Thereby, in this floor-standing type air conditioner, it is possible to make the internal structure difficult to see from the outside and to suppress an increase in the suction resistance.
第 2発明に係る床置き型空気調和機では、上記の角度 dlが上記の範囲を満たすこ とにより、内部の構造の見え難さと、吸い込み抵抗の増大の抑制とをより適切に調和 させることがでさる。  In the floor-standing air conditioner according to the second aspect of the present invention, when the angle dl satisfies the above range, it is possible to more appropriately harmonize the difficulty of seeing the internal structure and suppressing the increase in suction resistance. I'll do it.
[0012] 第 3発明に係る床置き型空気調和機では、第 1吸込み開口の高さ方向寸法が 5m m以上であり、この場合、本発明が特に有効となる。  [0012] In the floor-standing air conditioner according to the third invention, the height direction dimension of the first suction opening is 5 mm or more. In this case, the present invention is particularly effective.
第 4発明に係る床置き型空気調和機では、第 2カバー部に関する角度 d2について も第 1カバー部に関する角度 dlと同様の条件が満たされる。このため、複数の吸込 み開口が設けられる場合にも、内部の構造を外部力 見え難くすることができると共 に吸 、込み抵抗の増大を抑えることができる。  In the floor-standing air conditioner according to the fourth aspect of the invention, the same condition as the angle dl related to the first cover part is satisfied with respect to the angle d2 related to the second cover part. For this reason, even when a plurality of suction openings are provided, if the internal structure can be made difficult to see the external force, the suction resistance can be prevented from increasing.
第 5発明に係る床置き型空気調和機では、第 1吸込み開口は前面パネルの上部に 設けられている。一般に、吸込み開口が上方に設けられる程、使用者の視線の角度 が浅くなり、内部の構造が見え易くなる。しかし、この床置き型空気調和機では、第 1 カバー部は、上記の角度 dlに関する条件を満たすことにより、内部の構造の見え難 くすることができる。一方、第 3吸込み開口は前面パネルの下部に設けられるため、 使用者の視線の角度がきつくなり、内部の構造が見え難い。このため、第 3吸込み開 口に関しては、第 1吸込み開口よりも高さ方向寸法を大きくしても、内部の構造が見 え難い。このため、内部の構造を見え難くすると共に、吸い込み抵抗を低減すること ができる。 In the floor-standing air conditioner according to the fifth aspect of the invention, the first suction opening is provided in the upper part of the front panel. In general, the more the suction opening is provided above, the shallower the user's line of sight and the easier it is to see the internal structure. However, in this floor-mounted air conditioner, the first cover portion can make the internal structure difficult to see by satisfying the above-mentioned condition regarding the angle dl. On the other hand, since the 3rd suction opening is provided in the lower part of the front panel, the angle of the user's line of sight becomes tight and the internal structure is difficult to see. Therefore, the third suction opening With regard to the mouth, even if the height dimension is made larger than that of the first suction opening, it is difficult to see the internal structure. This makes it difficult to see the internal structure and reduces the suction resistance.
[0013] 第 6発明に係る床置き型空気調和機では、第 3カバー部について角度 d3が上記の 条件を満たす。このため、第 3カバー部についても、内部の構造を外部から見え難く することができると共に吸い込み抵抗の増大をさらに抑えることができる。  [0013] In the floor-standing air conditioner according to the sixth aspect of the invention, the angle d3 of the third cover portion satisfies the above condition. For this reason, the internal structure of the third cover portion can be made difficult to see from the outside, and an increase in the suction resistance can be further suppressed.
第 7発明に係る床置き型空気調和機では、第 3カバー部に関する角度 d3が第 1力 バー部に関する角度 dlよりも大きい。このため、第 3吸込み開口での吸い込み抵抗 をより低減することができる。また、第 3吸込み開口は、第 1吸込み開口よりも低い位 置にあるため、第 1吸込み開口よりも死角が広ぐ内部の構造が見え難い。これにより 、この床置き型空気調和機では、第 3吸込み開口に関して、内部の構造を外部から 見え難くすることができると共に吸い込み抵抗の増大をより抑えることができる。  In the floor-standing air conditioner according to the seventh aspect of the invention, the angle d3 related to the third cover part is larger than the angle dl related to the first force bar part. Therefore, the suction resistance at the third suction opening can be further reduced. In addition, since the third suction opening is located at a lower position than the first suction opening, it is difficult to see the internal structure having a wider dead angle than the first suction opening. Thereby, in this floor-standing type air conditioner, regarding the third suction opening, the internal structure can be made difficult to see from the outside, and the increase in suction resistance can be further suppressed.

この床置き型空気調和機 1では、第 1吸込み開口 10aは底面 Bから 600mm以下と いう比較的低い位置にあり、使用者の目線よりも低い位置にあることが多ぐこの場合 、使用者は吸込み開口を斜め上方力も見下ろすことになる。このため、角度 dlが 45 ° 以下となる範囲は、使用者にとって死角となり易い。このため、角度 dlが 45° 以下 となるように第 1カバー部 17aを設けることによって、ケーシング 2の内部の見え難さを 確保することができる。また、角度 dlが 0° を越えるように、すなわち、第 1カバー部 1 7aの上端が第 1吸込み開口 10aの上端よりも低くなるように第 1カバー部 17aを設け ることによって、従来よりも吸い込み抵抗を低減することができる。このように、 0° < d 1≤45° を満たすように第 1カバー部 17aが設けられることにより、外部からの見え難 さをできる限り維持すると共に、吸い込み抵抗を低減することができる。  In this floor-mounted air conditioner 1, the first suction opening 10a is at a relatively low position of 600 mm or less from the bottom surface B, and is often located at a position lower than the user's line of sight. The diagonal upward force is also looked down at the suction opening. Therefore, the range where the angle dl is 45 ° or less is likely to be a blind spot for the user. For this reason, by providing the first cover portion 17a so that the angle dl is 45 ° or less, it is possible to ensure the difficulty of seeing the inside of the casing 2. Further, the first cover portion 17a is provided so that the angle dl exceeds 0 °, that is, the upper end of the first cover portion 17a is lower than the upper end of the first suction opening 10a. Suction resistance can be reduced. In this way, by providing the first cover portion 17a so as to satisfy 0 ° <d 1 ≤45 °, it is possible to maintain the visibility from the outside as much as possible and to reduce the suction resistance.
[0028] なお、上記の効果は、第 2吸込み開口 10bおよび第 2カバー部 17bに関しても同様 である。 [0028] It should be noted that the above effect is the same for the second suction opening 10b and the second cover portion 17b.

この床置き型空気調和機 1では、第 1吸込み開口 10aの高さ方向寸法が約 10mm であるため、高さ方向寸法が 5mm未満の場合よりも内部の構造が見え易い。このた め、内部の構造を外部から見え難くするためにカバー部が必要である。そこで、上記 のように第 1カバー部 17aが設けられることにより、内部の構造を外部から見え難くす ると共に、第 1カバー部 17aを設けることによる吸い込み抵抗の増大という弊害を抑え ることがでさる。 なお、この効果は、第 2吸込み開口 10bおよび第 2カバー部 17bに関しても同様で ある。 In this floor-mounted air conditioner 1, since the height direction dimension of the first suction opening 10a is about 10 mm, the internal structure is easier to see than when the height direction dimension is less than 5 mm. For this reason, a cover part is necessary to make the internal structure difficult to see from the outside. Therefore, by providing the first cover portion 17a as described above, it is possible to make the internal structure difficult to see from the outside and to suppress the adverse effect of increasing the suction resistance due to the provision of the first cover portion 17a. Monkey. This effect is the same for the second suction opening 10b and the second cover portion 17b.

この床置き型空気調和機 1では、第 1吸込み開口 10aおよび第 2吸込み開口 10bは 前面パネル 22の上部に設けられている。一般に、吸込み開口が上方に設けられる程 、使用者の視線の角度が浅くなる(水平に近くなる)ため、内部の構造が見え易くなる 。また、吸込み開口の高さ方向寸法が大きいほど内部の構造が見え易くなる。そこで 、この床置き型空気調和機 1では、第 1吸込み開口 10aおよび第 2吸込み開口 10bの 高さ方向寸法 hi, h2を比較的小さくすることによって内部の構造の見え難くしている 。また、 2つの吸込み開口を設けることにより、 1つの吸込み開口の高さ方向寸法を小 さくすると共に吸い込み空気の風量を確保することができる。  In the floor-standing air conditioner 1, the first suction opening 10a and the second suction opening 10b are provided in the upper part of the front panel 22. In general, the more the suction opening is provided above, the shallower the line of sight of the user (closer to the horizontal), so that the internal structure becomes easier to see. Further, the larger the dimension in the height direction of the suction opening, the easier it is to see the internal structure. Therefore, in this floor-mounted air conditioner 1, the internal structure is made difficult to see by relatively reducing the height dimensions hi and h2 of the first suction opening 10a and the second suction opening 10b. Further, by providing two suction openings, the height dimension of one suction opening can be reduced and the air volume of the suction air can be secured.
一方、第 3吸込み開口 18は、前面パネル 22の下部に設けられているため、使用者 の視線の角度がきつくなり、内部の構造が見え難い。このため、第 3吸込み開口 18は 、第 1吸込み開口 10aよりも高さ方向寸法が大きくても、内部の構造が見え難い。そこ で、この床置き型空気調和機 1では、第 3吸込み開口 18の高さ方向寸法 h3が第 1吸 込み開口 10aよりも大きくなつており、吸い込み抵抗が低くなつている。さらに、 0° < dl≤45° を満たすように第 3カバー部 19が設けられるため、吸い込み抵抗がより低 くなつている。また、使用者の視線に入り易い部分には第 3カバー部 19が設けられて いるため、ケーシング 2の内部の騒音が外部に漏れることを抑えることができ、遮音効 果ち奏することができる。  On the other hand, since the third suction opening 18 is provided in the lower part of the front panel 22, the angle of the user's line of sight is tight and the internal structure is difficult to see. For this reason, even if the third suction opening 18 has a larger dimension in the height direction than the first suction opening 10a, it is difficult to see the internal structure. Therefore, in this floor-mounted air conditioner 1, the height direction dimension h3 of the third suction opening 18 is larger than that of the first suction opening 10a, and the suction resistance is low. Further, since the third cover portion 19 is provided so as to satisfy 0 ° <dl ≦ 45 °, the suction resistance is lower. In addition, since the third cover portion 19 is provided in a portion that easily enters the line of sight of the user, it is possible to suppress noise inside the casing 2 from leaking to the outside, and to achieve a sound insulation effect.

上記の実施形態では、 dl = d2 = d3である力 角度 dlと角度 d2と角度 d3とがそれ ぞれ異なる大きさであってもよい。また、角度 dlと角度 d2とが同じ大きさであり角度 d 3のみが異なる大きさであってもよい。例えば、角度 d3が角度 dlおよび角度 d2より大 きくてもよい。第 3吸込み開口 18は第 1吸込み開口 10aおよび第 2吸込み開口 10bよ りも下方に位置しているため、使用者の死角となる部分が大きぐ角度 d3が角度 dlよ り大きくても内部の構造を外部力 見え難くすることができる。 In the above embodiment, the force angle dl, the angle d2, and the angle d3 where dl = d2 = d3 may be different in magnitude. Further, the angle dl and the angle d2 may have the same size and only the angle d3 may have a different size. For example, angle d3 is greater than angle dl and angle d2. You may ask. Since the third suction opening 18 is located below the first suction opening 10a and the second suction opening 10b, the inner portion of the user's blind spot is large even if the angle d3 is larger than the angle dl. The structure can be made difficult to see external force.
