Abstract

An air conditioner having a structure capable of variably installing an indoor unit of the air conditioner in a vertical or horizontal direction, the air conditioner including a body configured to be variably installed in a vertical or a horizontal direction, a heat exchanging device installed inside the body, and a drain assembly provided to collect condensation water generated from the heat exchanging device, wherein the drain assembly includes a first drain tray provided at a lower portion of a traverse side of the heat exchanging device to collect the condensation water falling along the surface of the heat exchanging device when the body is horizontally installed, and a second drain tray provided at a lower portion of a longitudinal side (h) of the heat exchanging device to collect the condensation water falling along the surface of the heat exchanging device when the body is vertically installed.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments relate to an air conditioner, and more particularly, to a structure of an indoor unit capable of variably installing the air conditioner in a vertical or horizontal direction. Background technique [0002] In general, an air conditioner is a device configured to supply cool air or heated air to the surroundings of the air conditioner using a heat absorption effect or a heat generation effect performed when a refrigerant circulates in a refrigeration cycle while being vaporized or liquefied. A refrigeration cycle is formed by a compressor, a condenser, a refrigerant expansion valve, and an evaporator connected to each other in a closed circuit by refrigerant pipes. [0003] Air conditioners may be mainly classified into a split type air conditioner and an integrated type air conditioner, and in the case of the split type air conditioner, an indoor unit and an outdoor unit are installed indoors and outdoors, respectively, and the indoor unit ...
