Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a wind vane for an air conditioner.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 As shown in FIG. 3, the wind direction plate provided at the air outlet of the conventional air conditioner rotatably supports a wind direction plate 12 having a width shorter than the width of the opening 6 of the air conditioner outlet. The direction of the blown air is deflected up and down by being supported by the supporting portion 7 and the tip of the wind direction plate 12 being moved up and down around the supporting portion 7.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 If the length of the wind direction plate 12 along the blowout direction is increased, blown air can be sent to a long distance, but it is restricted by the shape of the opening 6 of the blowout port, and the blowout port is used when the air conditioner is not in use. Since it becomes impossible to close the pipe, the length along the blowing direction could not be increased. The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, in which the length of the wind direction plate in the blowing direction is increased, and at least one of the housing surfaces against which the end of the wind direction plate hits when the wind direction plate is closed is provided. It is an object of the present invention to provide a concave portion on the surface of the above-mentioned concave portion so that the wind direction plate can be accommodated and closed along with the concave portion so that the wind direction plate elongated in the blowing direction can be used. .

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, in the present invention, in a wind direction plate that opens and closes the air outlet of the housing and is rotatably supported, the length of the air direction plate in the blowing direction is set to the side wall of the opening of the outlet. The length is longer than the length, and the side surface of the airflow direction plate is pivoted at a position deviated from the center in the longitudinal direction, and when the airflow direction plate is closed, a recess is formed on at least one of the housing surfaces against which the end of the airflow direction plate hits. It is provided so that the wind direction plate is housed along with the concave portion.

[0005]

[Action]

 According to the above configuration, a recess is provided on at least one surface of the housing against which the end of the wind direction plate lengthened in the blowing direction hits, and the wind direction plate is housed along with the recessed part to close the air outlet. This makes it possible to use a wind direction plate that is elongated in the blowing direction.

【Example】

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a partially cutaway perspective view showing an embodiment of the air conditioner of the present invention. An indoor unit of an air conditioner has a housing formed by mounting a panel 2 on the front surface of a housing 1, and an elongated substantially rectangular outlet opening 6 is provided in the lower part of the panel 2 at the left and right. An airflow direction plate 4 is attached to the air conditioner 6. By driving the blower 11 housed in the housing 1, air is sucked in through the air suction port 3 provided in the panel 2, heat is exchanged by the heat exchanger 10, and air is sent out through the opening 6. I am trying to raise it. The wind direction plate 4 is rotatably supported by rotary shafts 7 provided on the left and right side walls of the opening 6, and the wind direction plate 4 is made rotatable, and the tip of the wind direction plate 4 is moved up and down around the rotary shaft 7 to blow out air. The direction of air can be deflected up and down.

FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of an essential part showing the mounting structure of the wind direction plate of FIG. 1, in which the same parts as those shown in FIG. 3 are indicated by the same symbols. The length of the wind direction plate 4 in the blowing direction is made longer than the width of the opening 6 in the vertical direction, and a position deviated from the longitudinal center of the side surface of the wind direction plate 4, for example, the lower side is supported by the rotating shaft 7, and air conditioning is performed. During operation of the machine, the tip of the wind direction plate 4 is moved up and down in the blowing direction to deflect the direction of blown air up and down. Since the length of the wind direction plate 4 in the blowing direction is longer than that of the conventional example, the blown air can be sent to a long distance.

However, when the air conditioner is not used or when the air conditioner is not used for a long period of time, it is necessary to keep the wind direction plate 4 protruding from the housing of the air conditioner so that an object or the like collides with the wind direction plate 4. There is a risk of damage due to damage, and the inside of the machine can be seen, and dust can easily get inside, making the appearance unattractive. In the present invention, the tip of the wind direction plate 4 is raised in the direction of the arrow, and the concave portion 5 is provided in the surface portion of the panel 2 against which the end portion of the wind direction plate 4 hits. It is designed so that it can be stored without sticking out from the main body of the.

Therefore, by increasing the length of the wind direction plate 4 along the blowing direction, blown air can be sent to a long distance, and when the wind direction plate 4 is closed, it is stored along with the concave portion 5 part. This makes it possible to store the air conditioner so that it does not stick out from the body of the air conditioner. Although the tip end portion of the wind direction plate 4 has a small thickness, it does not need to be particularly thin if the depth of the concave portion 5 is increased, and the shape of the outlet 6 of the air outlet is also limited to a rectangular shape. However, it may be an ellipse or another shape.

[0010]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to use the wind direction plate whose length along the blowout direction is long, and when closing the blowout port, it is necessary to use the concave portion provided in the opening portion of the blowout port of the housing. Since it is possible to store and close the wind direction plate along with it, it is possible to send blown air to a distance if the wind direction plate is pulled out, and if it is closed, damage to the wind direction plate 4 can be prevented, and It is possible to provide an airflow vane for an air conditioner that can close the opening so that it can no longer be seen, and that can improve the appearance.
