no. 1 Embodiment approach

[0032] figure 1 Represents the front view of the indoor unit of the air conditioner related to the present invention, figure 2 means along figure 1 The cross-sectional view taken along the line II-II in particular shows the indoor unit of this embodiment.

[0033] Such as figure 2 As shown, a heat exchanger 4 is provided inside the indoor unit main body 2, and an air passage 6 serving as an air flow passage is formed. A fan 8 is equipped in the wind passage 6, which can generate air flow that is sucked in from the front of the main body 2 through the air inlet 10 formed above and discharged from the air outlet 12. In addition, a filter device 14 is equipped between the air inlet 10 and the heat exchanger 4, and the air is sucked in from the air inlet 10 formed on the main body 2 by the action of the fan 8, and the dust floating in the air is filtered by the filter device. 14 extraction.

[0034] As described above, since the air inlet 10 is formed from the front of th...

no. 2 Embodiment approach

[0047] Figure 7 and Figure 8 The indoor unit and the filter device 14A in the second embodiment are respectively shown.

[0048] Such as Figure 8 As shown, the filter frame 42 is equipped with an air filter 44 that removes dust from the air passing through the heat exchanger, and a dust recovery section 46 that sandwiches the air filter 44 and the filter frame 42 . Dust Recovery Section 46, via Figure 9 The shown drum 50 is supported by a pair of guide rails 48 provided at the upper and lower ends of the filter frame 42, and is free to slide left and right. The dust recovery part 46 is driven left and right by the metal wire 52 provided at the bottom of the filter frame 42 and the driving motor 54 . The wire 52 is stretched over a pulley 55 provided at one end of the guide rail 48 and a pulley 55 provided at the drive motor 54 .

[0049] Such as Figure 9 same Figure 1O As shown, the inside of the dust recovery part 46 is equipped with a dust removal part 56 , the ...

Abstract

The present invention provides an air conditioner having superior maintenance performance. The filter device for the air conditioner comprising an air filter to be driven for collecting dusts in the air passing through a heat exchanger, a removing member capable of removing the dusts attached to the air filter, and a dust storing portion capable of storing the dusts removed by the removing member, further comprises a suction device communicated with the dust storing portion, and an air inflow portion formed on the dust storing portion, thus the dusts attached to the air filter can be automatically cleaned, which saves the trouble of periodically cleaning the air filter.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an air conditioner which automatically cleans an air filter provided at an air suction port of an indoor unit. Background technique [0002] In conventional air conditioner filter devices, the air filter is placed in front of the heat exchanger in order to prevent dust from entering the main body of the air conditioner. Such an air filter has a structure that can be easily attached and detached for manual cleaning of the absorbed dust. The air filter of such a structure must be frequently maintained, and the air filter is gradually clogged before maintenance. As a result, the air volume passing through the heat exchanger is reduced, the air conditioning capacity is reduced, and the power consumption is increased. [0003] Therefore, in order to reduce the maintenance of the air filter, there is provided an automatic cleaning device which regularly cleans the dust adsorbed on the air filter with a brush (for example, re...
