The present invention relates to an air conditioner indoor unit, and more particularly, to an installation structure for attaching the indoor unit to the wall surface.

In general, air conditioners are classified into a window type in which a refrigeration cycle device is mounted in one body and installed in windows, and a separate type installed in a city and an outdoor unit by separating an indoor unit and an outdoor unit.

In addition, in the case of the separate type air conditioner, it is divided into a wall-mounted type, an upper tooth type, a ceiling-hanger type, and a ceiling-embedded type according to the installation method.                         

In addition, the indoor unit of the structure that can be used as a wall-mounted or upper teeth type, and can also be used as a ceiling-mounted type according to the needs of the user is called a convertible indoor unit.

1 is an exploded perspective view of a conventional air conditioner indoor unit inhaling and discharging to the front of the conventional front.

Referring to FIG. 1, a conventional air conditioner indoor unit is in contact with a front panel 20 and indoor air sucked from an upper side of the front panel 20 to filter foreign substances included in the suction air 30. ), The front frame 35 on which the filter 30 and the front panel 20 are seated to form a front portion, and the temperature of the intake air is brought into contact with the purified air through the front frame 35. A heat exchanger 60 for lowering, a blower fan 50 formed at a rear side of the heat exchanger 60 to suck low-temperature indoor air passing through the heat exchanger 60, and the blower fan 50 An orifice 70 for guiding the flow of the inhaled low-temperature air and a base 40 equipped with a discharge part through which the air guided by the orifice 70 is discharged are included.

In detail, a drain pan 80, which condenses on the outer wall of the heat exchanger 60 and collects moisture in the air, is included, and an upper portion 75 of the orifice 70 controls the driving of electrical components. It is seated.

In more detail, the upper inner surface of the base 40, the low-temperature air sucked into the blowing fan 50 through the orifice 70 is not discharged to the upper side, the air flows so as to discharge to the left and right sides of the indoor unit The flow guide 90 for guiding is seated.

When power is applied to the indoor unit 10, the fan 50 is operated, and the upper part of the front panel 20 opens to form an opening, and indoor air is sucked through the opening. Then, the sucked air is purified through the filter 30 and the front frame 35, and then the temperature drops while passing through the heat exchanger (60). Then, the sucked air is guided to the discharge port by the flow path guide 90 and the orifice 70, the air guided to the discharge port is discharged back to the room.
