Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, since the above-mentioned front baffle is a front-and-back opening and closing structure, the front baffle will move to the front of the blowing grill, so when performing cooling operation, the cold air blown from the top of the blowing grill will blow to the front of the front baffle. The lower end is prone to turbulent flow, and condensation is likely to occur near it
[0006] Additionally, if Figure 7 In the case of the conventional example shown, since the horizontal bar-shaped opening 12a serving as the air suction port of the front grille 12 has a concave-convex shape, dust tends to adhere to it and it is difficult to wipe it off.
Moreover, in order to ensure sufficient air intake, it is necessary to have a certain degree of opening area, so that many restrictions are added to the design.
[0007] In addition, since the display part 13 is arranged on the appearance part of the air conditioner, it usually leaks outside, so even in the state of stopping the operation of the air conditioner main body 11, this part should be located in a place with strong impact resistance in design, It is difficult to achieve a highly aesthetic design

Abstract

An air conditioner, wherein an openable front panel (4) is installed at the front of an air conditioner body (1). When the operation of the body (1) is stopped, the lower end of the front panel (4) is positioned on the lower side of the upper end (5a) of an air outlet port (5b), and when the body (1) is operated, the front panel (4) is moved in the forward upper direction and the lower end (4a) of the front panel (4) is positioned on the upper side of the upper end (5a) of the air outlet port (5b), whereby eliminating the need of an air intake opening part in the front panel. In addition, since the air conditioner is so formed that cool air does not touch the front panel, the appearance thereof can be improved and dewing at the front panel can be reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a structure of an air conditioner for heating and cooling the living environment. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, as an air conditioner in which a baffle is provided at the air inlet, a blowing grill for blowing out air is provided on the lower side of the front of the main body, and a front baffle for opening and closing the air inlet is provided above the blowing grill. , by the opening and closing device built in the main body, the above-mentioned front bezel is used for opening and closing in the front and rear directions. For example, refer to Patent Document 1 (JP-A-04-084042). [0003] Moreover, as other conventional examples, such as Figure 7 As shown, a front grille 12 is provided in front of the air conditioner main body 11, and on the front grille 12, a plurality of horizontal strip-shaped openings 12a are provided as suction ports for sucking air into the internal wind circuit. [0004] 13 is a disp...
