Description

天井埋込型空気調和装置Embedded ceiling air conditioner
 本発明は、天井埋込型空気調和装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a ceiling-embedded air conditioner.
 一般に、筐体内に送風機と、この送風機を囲むように配置された多角形状の熱交換器と、この熱交換器の直線形状部の吸込側に一端が取り付けられ、他端が前記送風機側へ延びる整流板とを備えた天井埋込型空気調和装置が知られている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。この種の空気調和装置では、送風機を介して熱交換器の内側に吸込まれる室内空気は、整流板を乗り越えるようにして通風路内を流れ、熱交換器の吸込側から吹出側に流出する。このため、整流板が空気の流れに対して適度な抵抗となることにより、整流板間の空間内の圧力が均一化され、上記空間内での渦流の発生、特に熱交換器の角部(隅部)での渦流の発生が抑えられるため、送風機が運転する際の騒音(風切音)を抑えることができる。 Generally, one end is attached to the suction side of the air blower in the housing, the polygonal heat exchanger disposed so as to surround the air blower, and the linear shape portion of the heat exchanger, and the other end extends to the air blower side. A ceiling-embedded air conditioner including a current plate is known (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In this type of air conditioner, the indoor air sucked into the heat exchanger via the blower flows through the ventilation path so as to get over the current plate, and flows out from the suction side of the heat exchanger to the outlet side. . For this reason, when the current plate becomes an appropriate resistance against the air flow, the pressure in the space between the current plates is made uniform, and the generation of eddy currents in the space, particularly the corners of the heat exchanger ( Since the generation of eddy currents at the corners is suppressed, noise (wind noise) during operation of the blower can be suppressed.

It is installed suspended.
 筐体1の内側には、発泡スチロール製の断熱材3がほぼ全面にわたって配置されており、この断熱材3の内側に、送風機9、及び熱交換器11が収容されている。送風機9は、シャフトを下向きに配置されたファンモータ5と、ファンモータ5のシャフトに回転自在に取り付けられたターボファン7とで構成され、このターボファン7の回りには通風路8が形成されている。熱交換器11は、平面視で多角形状に形成されたフィンアンドチューブ型の熱交換器であり、送風機9を取り囲むように配置される。
 熱交換器11の下方には、熱交換器11の下面を覆うように、発泡スチロール製のドレンパン13が配設されている。ドレンパン13の中央には、多角形状の吸込開口32が開口し、この吸込開口32には、上記送風機9の吸込部が臨んでいる。また、ドレンパン13の周縁部には、熱交換器11を通った送風機9の排気を通すための吹出開口33が形成されている。吸込開口32の上部には、吸込開口32を通った被調和室の空気を送風機9に案内するノズル14が取り付けられている。ノズル14は、吸込開口32より小さく形成された略円形の開口部15を有し、複数のねじを用いてドレンパン13に固定されている。
A heat insulating material 3 made of styrene foam is disposed almost entirely inside the housing 1, and a blower 9 and a heat exchanger 11 are accommodated inside the heat insulating material 3. The blower 9 includes a fan motor 5 having a shaft disposed downward, and a turbo fan 7 rotatably attached to the shaft of the fan motor 5, and a ventilation path 8 is formed around the turbo fan 7. ing. The heat exchanger 11 is a fin-and-tube heat exchanger formed in a polygonal shape in plan view, and is disposed so as to surround the blower 9.
Below the heat exchanger 11, a drain pan 13 made of styrene foam is disposed so as to cover the lower surface of the heat exchanger 11. A polygonal suction opening 32 is opened at the center of the drain pan 13, and the suction portion of the blower 9 faces the suction opening 32. Further, a blow-off opening 33 for allowing the exhaust of the blower 9 that has passed through the heat exchanger 11 to pass is formed in the peripheral portion of the drain pan 13. A nozzle 14 for guiding the air in the conditioned room that has passed through the suction opening 32 to the blower 9 is attached to the upper portion of the suction opening 32. The nozzle 14 has a substantially circular opening 15 formed smaller than the suction opening 32, and is fixed to the drain pan 13 using a plurality of screws.
 筐体1の下面には、化粧パネル21がねじ(図示略)等により取り付けられている。化粧パネル21は、上記天井面110の下方に天井裏空間111を介して設けられる天井板112に配置されて被調和室に露出している。化粧パネル21には、被調和室の空気を吸込む吸込口22と、熱交換器11を通った調和空気を被調和室に吹き出す吹出口23とが形成されている。吸込口22の内側には、フィルタ25が装着されている。
 天井埋込型空気調和装置100は、図示しない室外機から供給される冷媒を熱交換器11に通して、熱交換器11を蒸発器または凝縮器として機能させる。そして、天井埋込型空気調和装置100は、送風機9の動作により、吸込口22から被調和室の室内空気を吸い込み、フィルタ25で清浄化した後、吸込開口32及びノズル14を通して室内空気を熱交換器11に通して冷却または加熱し、調和空気とする。天井埋込型空気調和装置100は、送風機9の動作により、調和空気を吹出開口33を通して吹出口23から被調和室に吹き出し、被調和室を冷房または暖房する。
A decorative panel 21 is attached to the lower surface of the housing 1 with screws (not shown) or the like. The decorative panel 21 is disposed on the ceiling plate 112 provided below the ceiling surface 110 via the ceiling back space 111 and exposed to the conditioned room. The decorative panel 21 is formed with a suction port 22 for sucking in air in the conditioned room and an outlet 23 for blowing out conditioned air that has passed through the heat exchanger 11 into the conditioned room. A filter 25 is mounted inside the suction port 22.
The ceiling-embedded air conditioner 100 allows a refrigerant supplied from an outdoor unit (not shown) to pass through the heat exchanger 11 so that the heat exchanger 11 functions as an evaporator or a condenser. The ceiling-embedded air conditioner 100 sucks room air in the conditioned room from the suction port 22 through the operation of the blower 9, cleans it with the filter 25, and then heats the room air through the suction opening 32 and the nozzle 14. It is cooled or heated through the exchanger 11 to obtain conditioned air. The ceiling-embedded air conditioner 100 blows conditioned air from the blowout opening 23 to the conditioned room through the blowout opening 33 and cools or heats the conditioned room by the operation of the blower 9.
 図2は、化粧パネル21、及びドレンパン13を取り外した状態の天井埋込型空気調和装置100を下方から示す図であり、図3は、図2のB-B断面図である。なお、この図2、及び図3では、上下を逆にした状態を示している。
 熱交換器11は、図2に示すように、筐体1の形状に合わせて略五角形状に曲げられており、冷媒の入口・出口側端部11Kから順に5つの直線形状部(辺)11A,11B,11C,11D,11Eと、各直線形状部間に設けられる角部12A,12B,12C,12Dとを備えている。熱交換器11は、曲げ始め位置である冷媒の入口・出口側端部11Kと、曲げ終わり位置である他端11Lとの間が管板11Mを介して連結されている。本実施形態では、管板11Mにより、直線形状部11A,11Eは、互いに屈曲して連結されているため、この管板11Mも角部として機能する。なお、図2における符号16はドレンポンプである。
2 is a view showing the ceiling-embedded air conditioner 100 from which the decorative panel 21 and the drain pan 13 are removed from below, and FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line BB of FIG. 2 and 3 show a state in which the top and bottom are reversed.
As shown in FIG. 2, the heat exchanger 11 is bent into a substantially pentagonal shape in accordance with the shape of the housing 1, and has five linear shape portions (sides) 11 </ b> A in order from the refrigerant inlet / outlet side end portion 11 </ b> K. , 11B, 11C, 11D, and 11E, and corner portions 12A, 12B, 12C, and 12D provided between the linear shape portions. In the heat exchanger 11, the refrigerant inlet / outlet side end portion 11K, which is a bending start position, and the other end 11L, which is a bending end position, are connected via a tube plate 11M. In the present embodiment, since the straight shape portions 11A and 11E are bent and connected to each other by the tube plate 11M, the tube plate 11M also functions as a corner portion. In addition, the code | symbol 16 in FIG. 2 is a drain pump.
 また、本実施形態では、図2に示すように、熱交換器11の吸込側の直線形状部11A,11B,11C,11Eには、それぞれ内側、即ち送風機9のターボファン7側へ延びる整流板41が取付けられている。これら整流板41は、熱交換器11の高さ方向に沿って延出するとともに、図中矢印Xで示す通風路8内の空気の流れに対して下流側の角部12A,12B,12D及び管板11Mに近接した位置で各直線形状部11B,11C,11E,11Aに取り付けられている。このように、整流板41を角部に近接した位置で各直線形状部に取り付けることにより、ターボファン7と熱交換器11との距離が広い部位に取り付けることができるとともに、各角部での渦流の発生を抑えることができ、送風機9から発生する騒音を大幅に減衰することができる。 Further, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the straight shape portions 11 </ b> A, 11 </ b> B, 11 </ b> C, and 11 </ b> E on the suction side of the heat exchanger 11 are respectively arranged on the inner side, that is, on the turbo fan 7 side of the blower 9. 41 is attached. These rectifying plates 41 extend along the height direction of the heat exchanger 11 and have corners 12A, 12B, 12D on the downstream side with respect to the air flow in the ventilation path 8 indicated by an arrow X in the figure, and It is attached to each linear shape part 11B, 11C, 11E, 11A at a position close to the tube plate 11M. In this way, by attaching the rectifying plate 41 to each linear shape portion at a position close to the corner portion, the turbo fan 7 and the heat exchanger 11 can be attached to a wide distance, and at each corner portion. The generation of vortex can be suppressed, and the noise generated from the blower 9 can be greatly attenuated.
 整流板41は短手方向に湾曲して形成され、一端41Aが熱交換器11の吸込側に固定され、他端41Bは、上記した空気の流れに対して上流側に位置するように配置されている。この構成では、湾曲した凹面側が空気の上流側となるため、整流板41が抵抗となって、整流板41,41間の風速が均一化される。
 具体的には、整流板41は、図3に示すように、一端にフォーク状のホルダ(固定部)42が設けられており、このホルダ42を熱交換器11のチューブ18に嵌め込むことにより、当該熱交換器11の吸込側に取付けられている。さらに、整流板41は、長手方向の長さが少なくともターボファン7の吐出口7Aの高さよりも大きく形成されており、この吐出口7Aから吹き出された空気が整流板41によって整流される。
The rectifying plate 41 is formed to bend in the short direction, one end 41A is fixed to the suction side of the heat exchanger 11, and the other end 41B is arranged to be located upstream with respect to the air flow described above. ing. In this configuration, since the curved concave surface side is the upstream side of the air, the rectifying plate 41 becomes a resistance, and the wind speed between the rectifying plates 41 and 41 is made uniform.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, the rectifying plate 41 is provided with a fork-shaped holder (fixed portion) 42 at one end, and by fitting the holder 42 into the tube 18 of the heat exchanger 11. It is attached to the suction side of the heat exchanger 11. Further, the rectifying plate 41 is formed such that the length in the longitudinal direction is at least larger than the height of the discharge port 7A of the turbofan 7, and the air blown from the discharge port 7A is rectified by the rectifying plate 41.
 図4は整流板41を示す三面図であり、Aは整流板41の上面図であり、Bは正面図であり、Cは右側面図である。
 本実施形態では、整流板41は、図4Aに示すように、曲率半径rで湾曲された部材であり、一端41A側には図4Bに示すように、上記したホルダ42が長手方向に間隔をあけて複数(3つ)設けられている。また、他端41B側には、長手方向に複数の凹凸が連続して形成された凹凸部43が形成されている。この凹凸部43は、三角形状の凹部43A,凸部43Bが連続して形成されており、この凸部43Bの頂角の角度Rは略直角(90°)に設定されている。また、凸部43Bの高さhは、図4Cに示すように、整流板41の投影距離Lの約1/3に設定されている。
 この構成では、三角形状の凹凸部43を整流板41の長手方向の高さに対して大きく設けることができるため、これら凹凸部43の縁部によって空気の流れが分散されることで整流板41を通過した風速が略均一化される。これにより、熱交換器11の上記角部での渦流の発生を抑えることができ、送風機9から発生する騒音を大幅に減衰することができる。
 また、本実施形態では、整流板41の他端41Bに形成された凹凸部43は、それぞれ熱交換器11の直線形状部11A,11B,11C,11Eと略平行となるように配置されている。これによれば、整流板41を通過する際に、この整流板41が過剰な抵抗となるのを防止でき、整流板41での騒音の発生を抑えることができる。
FIG. 4 is a three-sided view showing the rectifying plate 41, A is a top view of the rectifying plate 41, B is a front view, and C is a right side view.
In the present embodiment, the rectifying plate 41 is a member curved with a radius of curvature r as shown in FIG. 4A, and the holder 42 is spaced apart in the longitudinal direction on the one end 41A side as shown in FIG. 4B. A plurality (three) are provided. In addition, on the other end 41B side, an uneven portion 43 is formed in which a plurality of uneven portions are continuously formed in the longitudinal direction. The concave-convex portion 43 is formed by continuously forming a triangular concave portion 43A and a convex portion 43B, and the apex angle R of the convex portion 43B is set to a substantially right angle (90 °). Further, the height h of the convex portion 43B is set to about 1/3 of the projection distance L of the rectifying plate 41 as shown in FIG. 4C.
In this configuration, since the triangular uneven portion 43 can be provided larger than the height in the longitudinal direction of the rectifying plate 41, the air flow is dispersed by the edges of the concavo-convex portion 43, thereby causing the rectifying plate 41. The wind speed that has passed through is made substantially uniform. Thereby, generation | occurrence | production of the vortex | eddy_current in the said corner | angular part of the heat exchanger 11 can be suppressed, and the noise which generate | occur | produces from the air blower 9 can be attenuate | damped significantly.
Moreover, in this embodiment, the uneven | corrugated | grooved part 43 formed in the other end 41B of the baffle plate 41 is arrange | positioned so that it may become substantially parallel with the linear shape part 11A, 11B, 11C, 11E of the heat exchanger 11, respectively. . According to this, it is possible to prevent the rectifying plate 41 from becoming excessive resistance when passing through the rectifying plate 41, and to suppress the generation of noise in the rectifying plate 41.
 図5は、整流板41を備えた本実施形態の天井埋込型空気調和装置100の騒音値と、従来の空気調和装置の騒音値との比較した図である。本構成では、従来の構成として、特開平5-126351号公報に記載されたものと比較を行っている。具体的には、最急風(回転数A)、急風(回転数B)、強風(回転数C)、弱風(回転数D)、及び、微風(回転数E)における騒音値をそれぞれ計測し、これらの騒音値を風量ごとに比較した。なお、各風量における送風機9の回転数は、回転数A>回転数B>回転数C>回転数D>回転数Eとなっている。
 この図5より明らかなように、送風機9(ターボファン7)の回転数が最高回転数である最急風(回転数A)では、騒音値の変化は見られなかったが、急風(回転数B)では、従来の構成に比べて、騒音値が0.7(dB)低下したのを始め、強風(回転数C)、弱風(回転数D)及び微風(回転数E)では、従来の構成に比べて、騒音値がそれぞれ、0.3(dB)、0.4(dB)、0.8(dB)低下する結果を得た。
 このように、最急風(送風機9の回転数が最高値)の状態においては、騒音値の低下を見られなかったが、送風機9の回転数が最高値未満のいずれの回転数においても、騒音値の低下が見られた。これは、前述したように整流板41の他端41Bに設けた凹凸部43によって、整流板41に沿って流れた風の流れが凹部43Aと凸部43Bによって、整流板41の他端41Bで分散して、結果的に風速が略均一化され、騒音が低下したものと推察される。
FIG. 5 is a diagram comparing the noise value of the ceiling-embedded air conditioner 100 of the present embodiment provided with the rectifying plate 41 and the noise value of the conventional air conditioner. In this configuration, the conventional configuration is compared with that described in JP-A-5-126351. Specifically, the noise values in the steepest wind (revolution number A), steep wind (revolution number B), strong wind (revolution number C), weak wind (revolution number D), and light wind (revolution number E) are respectively shown. We measured and compared these noise values for each air volume. In addition, the rotation speed of the air blower 9 in each air volume satisfies the rotation speed A> the rotation speed B> the rotation speed C> the rotation speed D> the rotation speed E.
As is clear from FIG. 5, in the steep wind (rotation speed A) in which the rotation speed of the blower 9 (turbo fan 7) is the maximum rotation speed, no change in the noise value was observed. In the number B), the noise value began to decrease by 0.7 (dB) compared to the conventional configuration, and in the strong wind (number of revolutions C), weak wind (number of revolutions D) and light wind (number of revolutions E), Compared to the conventional configuration, the noise values were reduced by 0.3 (dB), 0.4 (dB), and 0.8 (dB), respectively.
Thus, in the state of the steepest wind (the rotational speed of the blower 9 is the highest value), a decrease in the noise value was not seen, but at any rotational speed where the rotational speed of the blower 9 is less than the highest value, The noise level decreased. As described above, the uneven flow 43 provided on the other end 41B of the rectifying plate 41 causes the flow of the wind that flows along the rectifying plate 41 to flow at the other end 41B of the rectifying plate 41 by the concave 43A and the convex 43B. As a result, it is assumed that the wind speed is substantially uniform and the noise is reduced as a result.
 以上説明したように、本実施形態によれば、筐体1内に送風機9と、この送風機9を囲むように配置された略5角形状の熱交換器11と、この熱交換器11の直線形状部11A,11B,11C,11Eの吸込側に一端41Aが取り付けられ、他端41Bが送風機9側へ延びる整流板41とを備え、この整流板41は、他端41Bの長手方向に複数の凹部43A及び凸部43Bが連続して形成された凹凸部43を備えるため、これら凹凸部43の縁部によって空気の流れが分散されることで整流板41を通過した風速が略均一化される。これにより、熱交換器11の角部での渦流の発生を抑えることができ、送風機9から発生する騒音を大幅に減衰することができる。 As described above, according to the present embodiment, the blower 9 in the housing 1, the substantially pentagonal heat exchanger 11 disposed so as to surround the blower 9, and the straight line of the heat exchanger 11. One end 41A is attached to the suction side of the shape portions 11A, 11B, 11C, and 11E, and the other end 41B includes a rectifying plate 41 extending to the blower 9 side. The rectifying plate 41 includes a plurality of rectifying plates in the longitudinal direction of the other end 41B. Since the concave portion 43A and the convex portion 43B are provided with the concavo-convex portion 43 formed continuously, the flow of air is dispersed by the edges of the concavo-convex portion 43 so that the wind speed passing through the rectifying plate 41 is substantially uniform. . Thereby, generation | occurrence | production of the vortex | eddy_current in the corner | angular part of the heat exchanger 11 can be suppressed, and the noise which generate | occur | produces from the air blower 9 can be attenuate | damped significantly.

 また、本実施形態によれば、整流板41は、短手方向に湾曲し、凹凸部43が送風機9から熱交換器11への空気の流れに対して上流側に位置するため、整流板41の湾曲した凹面側が空気の上流側となることにより、整流板41が抵抗となって、整流板41,41間の風速が均一化される。 In addition, according to the present embodiment, the rectifying plate 41 is curved in the short direction, and the concavo-convex portion 43 is located on the upstream side with respect to the air flow from the blower 9 to the heat exchanger 11. Since the curved concave surface side becomes the upstream side of the air, the rectifying plate 41 becomes a resistance, and the wind speed between the rectifying plates 41 and 41 is made uniform.
 また、本実施形態によれば、整流板41は、凹凸部43が熱交換器11の直線形状部と略平行となるように配置されているため、整流板41を通過する際に、この整流板41が過剰な抵抗となるのを防止でき、整流板41での騒音の発生を抑えることができる。 Further, according to the present embodiment, since the rectifying plate 41 is arranged so that the uneven portion 43 is substantially parallel to the linear shape portion of the heat exchanger 11, this rectifying plate 41 passes through the rectifying plate 41.

However, in the conventional configuration, the lead wire is routed along the lower surface of the drain pan, so that, for example, a serviceman accidentally touches the work with the decorative panel removed, and the lead wire is broken. There were cases where problems occurred. On the other hand, since the lead wire is routed after the drain pan and the electrical equipment box are assembled and connected to the electrical equipment box, it is desirable to facilitate the work of routing the lead wire at the time of connection.
Therefore, the object of the invention according to the second embodiment is to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, easily lead the lead wire and connect it to the electrical box, and reliably prevent the lead wire from being touched. An object of the present invention is to provide a ceiling-embedded air conditioner.
 上記課題を解決するため、本発明は、筐体内に送風機、熱交換器及び熱交換器の下面を覆うドレンパンを収納し、前記筐体の下面に化粧パネルを取り付け、前記化粧パネルと前記ドレンパンとの間に電装箱を備えた天井埋込型空気調和装置において、前記ドレンパンの下面に前記電装箱の側板と対向する立壁を形成し、この立壁と前記側板との隙間に前記送風機から前記電装箱に延びるリード線を引き回し、この隙間の少なくとも一部を前記電装箱の蓋部で覆ったことを特徴とする。 In order to solve the above problems, the present invention accommodates a blower, a heat exchanger, and a drain pan that covers a lower surface of the heat exchanger in a housing, a decorative panel is attached to the lower surface of the housing, and the decorative panel, the drain pan, In the ceiling-embedded air conditioner provided with an electrical box between them, a standing wall facing the side plate of the electrical box is formed on the lower surface of the drain pan, and the electrical box is connected to the gap between the standing wall and the side plate from the blower. A lead wire extending in the direction is drawn, and at least a part of the gap is covered with a lid portion of the electrical box.
 この構成において、前記蓋部の縁部と前記立壁の先端との距離は、前記リード線の太さよりも短くしても良い。また、前記立壁は、前記電装箱の側板のリード線引き込み孔に対向する位置に、前記隙間の幅を他の位置よりも広げる湾曲部を備えても良い。 In this configuration, the distance between the edge of the lid and the tip of the standing wall may be shorter than the thickness of the lead wire. Further, the standing wall may include a curved portion that widens the width of the gap as compared with other positions at a position facing the lead wire drawing hole of the side plate of the electrical equipment box.
 本発明によれば、ドレンパンの下面に電装箱の側板と対向する立壁を形成し、この立壁と側板との隙間に送風機から電装箱に延びるリード線を引き回すため、このリード線を容易に電装箱に接続することができる。さらに、上記した隙間の少なくとも一部を電装箱の蓋部で覆ったため、リード線は、立壁と側板と蓋部とで囲まれた空間内に配線されることにより、このリード線が露出することが防止され、当該リード線に触れることが確実に防止される。 According to the present invention, the standing wall facing the side plate of the electrical box is formed on the lower surface of the drain pan, and the lead wire extending from the blower to the electrical box is routed in the gap between the standing wall and the side plate. Can be connected to. In addition, since at least a part of the gap is covered with the lid of the electrical box, the lead wire is exposed in the space surrounded by the standing wall, the side plate, and the lid, so that the lead wire is exposed. Is prevented, and the lead wire is reliably prevented from touching.
 第2実施形態にかかる天井埋込型空気調和装置200は、第1実施形態にかかる天井埋込型空気調和装置100と同様に、天井面110から吊り下げ設置される。このため、天井埋込型空気調和装置200に関して、天井埋込型空気調和装置100と同一の構成(図1)については同一の符号を付して説明を省略する。 The ceiling-embedded air conditioner 200 according to the second embodiment is suspended from the ceiling surface 110 in the same manner as the ceiling-embedded air conditioner 100 according to the first embodiment. For this reason, regarding the ceiling-embedded air conditioner 200, the same configuration (FIG. 1) as that of the ceiling-embedded air conditioner 100 is denoted by the same reference numeral, and description thereof is omitted.
 図6は、化粧パネル21、ドレンパン13、及び送風機9を取り外した状態の天井埋込型空気調和装置200を下方から示す図であり、図7は、化粧パネル21を取り外した状態の天井埋込型空気調和装置200を下方から示す図である。
 筐体1は、図6に示すように、4つの側壁1A~1Dを備えている。各側壁1A~1Dの間には、それぞれ別の側壁1E~1Hが介在されており、これら側壁1A~1Hは、全体として略八角形の枠を形成している。
 熱交換器11は、筐体1の形状に合わせて略五角形状に曲げられており、冷媒の入口・出口側端部11Kから順に5つの辺(直線形状部)11A,11B,11C,11D,11Eを有している。これら4つの辺11A,11B,11C,11Eは、筐体1の4つの側壁1A,1B,1C,1Dに対して略平行に延び、残りの1つの辺11Dは、筐体1の側壁1Eに対応して筐体1の中央側に若干張り出している。熱交換器11は、曲げ始め位置である冷媒の入口・出口側端部11Kと、曲げ終わり位置である他端11Lとの間が管板11Mを介して連結されている。
FIG. 6 is a view showing the ceiling-embedded air conditioner 200 with the decorative panel 21, the drain pan 13, and the blower 9 removed from below, and FIG. 7 shows the ceiling embedded with the decorative panel 21 removed. It is a figure which shows the type | mold air conditioning apparatus 200 from the downward direction.
The housing 1 includes four side walls 1A to 1D as shown in FIG. Separate side walls 1E to 1H are interposed between the side walls 1A to 1D, respectively, and these side walls 1A to 1H form a substantially octagonal frame as a whole.
The heat exchanger 11 is bent into a substantially pentagonal shape in accordance with the shape of the housing 1, and has five sides (linearly shaped portions) 11A, 11B, 11C, 11D, in order from the refrigerant inlet / outlet end portion 11K. 11E. These four sides 11A, 11B, 11C, and 11E extend substantially in parallel to the four side walls 1A, 1B, 1C, and 1D of the housing 1, and the remaining one side 11D extends to the side wall 1E of the housing 1. Correspondingly, it protrudes slightly to the center side of the housing 1. In the heat exchanger 11, the refrigerant inlet / outlet side end portion 11K, which is a bending start position, and the other end 11L, which is a bending end position, are connected via a tube plate 11M.
 図7に示すように、ドレンパン13は、熱交換器11から落ちるドレンを受ける部材であり、筐体1の側壁1A~1Eの内面に接した状態で配置される。ドレンパン13は略中央部に開口された吸込開口32を備え、この吸込開口32は、熱交換器11の辺11A~11E及び管板11Mの形状に合わせて、平面視で略六角形状に形成されている。
 ドレンパン13と化粧パネル21(図1参照)との間には、送風機9等を制御する基板を収容する電装箱140が配設され、この電装箱140は、複数のねじ(不図示)を用いてドレンパン13に固定されている。電装箱140は、上記ノズル14の開口部15の径方向外側であって、吸込開口32の内側に近接して配置される。このため、平面視で電装箱140を送風機9の吸込部に重ならない位置に配置することができ、電装箱140を送風機9近傍に配置しつつ吸気抵抗を低減することが可能になる。
As shown in FIG. 7, the drain pan 13 is a member that receives the drain falling from the heat exchanger 11, and is disposed in contact with the inner surfaces of the side walls 1 </ b> A to 1 </ b> E of the housing 1. The drain pan 13 is provided with a suction opening 32 opened substantially in the center, and the suction opening 32 is formed in a substantially hexagonal shape in plan view in accordance with the shapes of the sides 11A to 11E of the heat exchanger 11 and the tube plate 11M. ing.
Between the drain pan 13 and the decorative panel 21 (see FIG. 1), an electrical box 140 that houses a substrate for controlling the blower 9 and the like is disposed. The electrical box 140 uses a plurality of screws (not shown). It is fixed to the drain pan 13. The electrical box 140 is arranged in the radial direction outside the opening 15 of the nozzle 14 and close to the inside of the suction opening 32. For this reason, the electrical equipment box 140 can be arranged at a position that does not overlap the suction portion of the blower 9 in plan view, and the intake resistance can be reduced while the electrical equipment box 140 is placed in the vicinity of the blower 9.
 電装箱140は、天井埋込型空気調和装置100の下方側の一面が開口した電装箱本体141に、この電装箱本体141の開口部(不図示)を塞ぐ蓋体(蓋部)142を取り付けて構成されている。電装箱本体141及び蓋体142は、金属等の難燃性材料を用いた薄板を折り曲げることにより、熱交換器11の辺11E及び管板11Mの形状に合わせて、平面視で略台形に形成されている。
 蓋体142の熱交換器11の辺11E側の縁部には、辺11Eに沿って延びる一対の切り欠き部142Aが形成されている。電装箱本体141には、蓋体142の切り欠き部142Aに対応する位置に鍔部141Aが形成されている。蓋体142は、切り欠き部142Aに電装箱本体141の鍔部141Aを挿入し、一対のねじ143で固定することにより、電装箱本体141に着脱可能に固定される。
In the electrical box 140, a lid (lid) 142 that closes an opening (not shown) of the electrical box main body 141 is attached to the electrical box main body 141 whose one side on the lower side of the ceiling-embedded air conditioner 100 is open. Configured. The electrical box main body 141 and the lid 142 are formed in a substantially trapezoidal shape in plan view according to the shape of the side 11E of the heat exchanger 11 and the tube plate 11M by bending a thin plate using a flame retardant material such as metal. Has been.
A pair of notches 142A extending along the side 11E is formed at the edge of the lid 142 on the side 11E side of the heat exchanger 11. In the electrical box main body 141, a flange 141A is formed at a position corresponding to the notch 142A of the lid 142. The lid 142 is detachably fixed to the electrical box main body 141 by inserting the flange 141A of the electrical box main body 141 into the notch 142A and fixing with the pair of screws 143.
 ところで、電装箱140には、送風機9のファンモータ5から延びるリード線(図9参照)が接続されている。このリード線は、ドレンパン13の上記開口部15の周囲に形成された引き込み孔50を通じて下方に引き出され、ドレンパン13の下面に沿って引き回された後、当該ドレンパン13の下面に固定された電装箱140に接続されている。
 このリード線は、ドレンパン13の下面に沿って引き回されるため、化粧パネル21を外した状態では、リード線がドレンパン13の下方で露出することにより、例えば、サービスマンが作業中に誤って触れてしまうことが想定され、リード線が破断する等の問題が生じることがあった。
Incidentally, a lead wire (see FIG. 9) extending from the fan motor 5 of the blower 9 is connected to the electrical equipment box 140. The lead wire is drawn downward through a drawing hole 50 formed around the opening 15 of the drain pan 13, drawn around the lower surface of the drain pan 13, and then fixed to the lower surface of the drain pan 13. Connected to the box 140.
Since this lead wire is routed along the lower surface of the drain pan 13, when the decorative panel 21 is removed, the lead wire is exposed below the drain pan 13, so that, for example, a serviceman accidentally operates during work. It may be touched, and problems such as breakage of the lead wire may occur.
 このため、本構成では、図8に示すように、ドレンパン13の下面に電装箱本体141の側板145と対向する立壁51を形成し、この立壁51と側板145との隙間に上記リード線が配線される配線部146が設けられている。立壁51は、ノズル14の平面部16と一体に形成されており、このノズル14をドレンパン13に固定することにより、規定された位置に立壁51を容易に形成することができる。なお、この図8及び後述する図9A,Bでは、上下を逆にした状態を示している。
 また、図7に示すように、立壁51に連なるノズル14の平面部16は、引き込み孔50と平面視でオーバーラップするように形成されている。この場合、ドレンパン13は、引き込み孔50の周囲が他よりも低く形成され、この低所と平面部16との隙間には、図9Aに示すように、引き込み孔50と配線部146とを連結する連結部147が形成されている。このため、引き込み孔50から引き出されたリード線60は、連結部147を通過することにより、外部に露出させることなく、配線部146に導くことができる。
For this reason, in this configuration, as shown in FIG. 8, a standing wall 51 that faces the side plate 145 of the electrical box main body 141 is formed on the lower surface of the drain pan 13, and the lead wire is wired in the gap between the standing wall 51 and the side plate 145. A wiring portion 146 is provided. The standing wall 51 is formed integrally with the flat portion 16 of the nozzle 14, and the standing wall 51 can be easily formed at a specified position by fixing the nozzle 14 to the drain pan 13. In FIG. 8 and FIGS. 9A and 9B described later, a state in which the top and bottom are reversed is shown.
As shown in FIG. 7, the flat portion 16 of the nozzle 14 connected to the standing wall 51 is formed so as to overlap the drawing hole 50 in a plan view. In this case, the drain pan 13 is formed so that the periphery of the lead-in hole 50 is lower than the others, and the lead-in hole 50 and the wiring part 146 are connected to the gap between the low part and the flat part 16 as shown in FIG. 9A. A connecting portion 147 is formed. For this reason, the lead wire 60 drawn out from the lead-in hole 50 can be guided to the wiring part 146 without being exposed to the outside by passing through the connecting part 147.
 更に、本構成では、配線部146の下方(図中上方)には、電装箱140の蓋体142が延在し、この蓋体142の縁部142Bは、配線部146を幅方向に一部を覆うように配置されている。具体的には、蓋体142の縁部142Bは、上方に向けて屈曲されており、この縁部142Bは、図9Aに示すように、立壁51と側板145との間に配置される。ここで、蓋体142の縁部142Bと立壁51の下端部(先端)51Aとの距離L1は、リード線60の太さDよりも短く形成されているため、このリード線60は、立壁51と側板145と蓋体142とで囲まれた空間内に配線されることにより、このリード線60が露出することが防止され、当該リード線60に触れることが確実に防止される。また、リード線60は、指よりも細く形成されているため、上記した蓋体142の縁部142Bと立壁51の下端部51Aとの隙間から指を入れてリード線60を引き出すことも防止される。 Further, in this configuration, a lid 142 of the electrical box 140 extends below the wiring portion 146 (upward in the drawing), and an edge 142B of the lid 142 partially extends the wiring portion 146 in the width direction. It is arranged to cover. Specifically, the edge 142B of the lid 142 is bent upward, and the edge 142B is disposed between the standing wall 51 and the side plate 145, as shown in FIG. 9A. Here, since the distance L1 between the edge 142B of the lid 142 and the lower end (tip) 51A of the standing wall 51 is shorter than the thickness D of the lead wire 60, the lead wire 60 is connected to the standing wall 51. By wiring in the space surrounded by the side plate 145 and the lid 142, the lead wire 60 is prevented from being exposed, and the lead wire 60 is reliably prevented from touching. Further, since the lead wire 60 is formed thinner than the finger, it is possible to prevent the lead wire 60 from being pulled out by inserting a finger from the gap between the edge portion 142B of the lid 142 and the lower end portion 51A of the standing wall 51. The
 また、蓋体142を開放した状態では、図9Bに示すように、立壁51と側板145との間の配線部146がすべて開放されることにより、この配線部146に容易にリード線60を引き回すことができ、配線作業の容易化を図ることができる。 Further, in the state in which the lid 142 is opened, as shown in FIG. 9B, all the wiring portions 146 between the standing wall 51 and the side plate 145 are opened, so that the lead wire 60 can be easily routed around the wiring portions 146. Therefore, the wiring work can be facilitated.
 さらに、本実施形態では、立壁51は、側板145に形成されたリード線引き込み孔145Aに対向する位置に、他部より送風機9側に膨らんで、配線部146の隙間を広げる湾曲部51Bを備える。この湾曲部51Bは、リード線60を曲げて電装箱140内に接続する際に当該リード線60を案内する形状に形成されており、接続作業を行う際に、リード線60を緩やかに曲げることができるため、当該リード線60に過剰な負荷がかかることを防止できる。 Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the standing wall 51 includes a curved portion 51B that swells from the other portion to the blower 9 side and widens the gap of the wiring portion 146 at a position facing the lead wire drawing hole 145A formed in the side plate 145. . The bent portion 51B is formed in a shape that guides the lead wire 60 when the lead wire 60 is bent and connected to the electrical box 140, and the lead wire 60 is gently bent when the connection work is performed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent an excessive load from being applied to the lead wire 60.
 以上説明したように、本実施の形態によれば、筐体1内に送風機9、熱交換器11及び熱交換器11の下面を覆うドレンパン13を収納し、筐体1の下面に化粧パネル21を取り付け、化粧パネル21とドレンパン13との間に電装箱140を備えた天井埋込型空気調和装置200において、ドレンパン13の下面に電装箱本体141の側板145と対向する立壁51を形成し、この立壁51と側板145との間の配線部146に送風機9から電装箱140に延びるリード線60を引き回すため、このリード線60を容易に電装箱140に接続することができる。更に、配線部146の少なくとも一部を電装箱140の蓋体142で覆ったため、リード線60は、立壁51と側板145と蓋体142とで囲まれた空間内に配線されることにより、このリード線60が外部に露出することが防止され、当該リード線60に触れることが確実に防止される。 As described above, according to the present embodiment, the blower 9, the heat exchanger 11, and the drain pan 13 that covers the lower surface of the heat exchanger 11 are housed in the housing 1, and the decorative panel 21 is disposed on the lower surface of the housing 1. In the ceiling-embedded air conditioner 200 provided with the electrical box 140 between the decorative panel 21 and the drain pan 13, a standing wall 51 facing the side plate 145 of the electrical box body 141 is formed on the lower surface of the drain pan 13. Since the lead wire 60 extending from the blower 9 to the electrical box 140 is routed to the wiring portion 146 between the standing wall 51 and the side plate 145, the lead wire 60 can be easily connected to the electrical box 140. Furthermore, since at least a part of the wiring portion 146 is covered with the lid body 142 of the electrical equipment box 140, the lead wire 60 is wired in a space surrounded by the standing wall 51, the side plate 145, and the lid body 142. The lead wire 60 is prevented from being exposed to the outside, and the lead wire 60 is reliably prevented from touching.
 また、本実施形態によれば、蓋体142の縁部142Bと立壁51の下端部51Aとの距離L1は、リード線60の太さDよりも短いため、蓋体142の縁部142Bと立壁51の下端部51Aとの隙間からリード線60を引き出すことが防止される。 Further, according to the present embodiment, since the distance L1 between the edge 142B of the lid 142 and the lower end 51A of the standing wall 51 is shorter than the thickness D of the lead wire 60, the edge 142B of the lid 142 and the standing wall It is possible to prevent the lead wire 60 from being pulled out from the gap between the lower end 51 </ b> A of the 51.
 また、本実施形態によれば、立壁51は、電装箱本体141の側板145のリード線引き込み孔145Aに対向する位置に、配線部146の隙間の幅を他の位置よりも広げる湾曲部51Bを備えるため、接続作業を行う際に、リード線60を緩やかに曲げることができ、当該リード線60に過剰な負荷がかかることを防止できる。 Further, according to the present embodiment, the standing wall 51 has the curved portion 51B that widens the gap width of the wiring portion 146 more than the other positions at a position facing the lead wire drawing hole 145A of the side plate 145 of the electrical box main body 141. Therefore, when the connection work is performed, the lead wire 60 can be gently bent, and an excessive load can be prevented from being applied to the lead wire 60.
 但し、上記実施の形態は本発明の一態様であり、本発明の趣旨を逸脱しない範囲において適宜変更可能であるのは勿論である。
 例えば、本実施の形態では、電装箱140の蓋体142は、蓋体142の縁部142Bが配線部146を幅方向に一部を覆うように配置された構成として記載しているが、蓋体142が配線部146を幅方向に全部覆っても良いことは勿論である。
However, the above embodiment is an aspect of the present invention, and it is needless to say that the embodiment can be appropriately changed without departing from the gist of the present invention.
For example, in this embodiment, the lid 142 of the electrical box 140 is described as a configuration in which the edge 142B of the lid 142 is arranged so as to partially cover the wiring portion 146 in the width direction. Of course, the body 142 may entirely cover the wiring portion 146 in the width direction.
