Description

本発明は、空気調和機に関し、特に空気調和機の室内ユニットの吹出口に設けられる左右風向調整板の操作部の形状に関するものである。   The present invention relates to an air conditioner, and more particularly to the shape of an operating portion of a left / right airflow direction adjusting plate provided at an air outlet of an indoor unit of the air conditioner.

空気調和機は、室内に吹き出される風の向きを左右方向に調整する左右風向調整板と上下方向に調整する上下風向調整板とが吹出口に設けられている。このうち、左右風向調整板を手動で操作するようにしたものがある。
このような空調調和機における風向調整装置の操作部に関して、例えば、特許文献１には、自動車等の空調用レジスタのエア吹出し口において、エア吹出し口を上下に区画する円板をバレルの直径方向に一体に形成し、該円板の所定位置に上下に膨出した略流線形球体を設けたものが開示されている。 The air conditioner is provided with a left and right wind direction adjusting plate that adjusts the direction of wind blown into the room in the left and right direction and a vertical air direction adjusting plate that adjusts in the vertical direction at the outlet. Among these, there is one in which the left and right wind direction adjusting plates are operated manually.
Regarding the operation unit of the wind direction adjusting device in such an air conditioner, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses that a disk that divides the air outlet vertically in an air outlet of an air conditioning register such as an automobile has a diameter direction of the barrel. And a substantially streamlined sphere bulging up and down at a predetermined position of the disk is disclosed.

特許文献２には、車両の空気調和機において、外枠体に内装される回転式グリルに複数の風向調整用フィンを設け、その中央部の風向調整用フィンに略流線形状をした操作ノブを一体に形成したものが開示されている。   In Patent Document 2, in a vehicle air conditioner, an operation knob in which a plurality of wind direction adjusting fins are provided on a rotary grille built in an outer frame body, and the wind direction adjusting fins at the center portion thereof are substantially streamlined. Are integrally formed.

特許文献３には、走行車内室用の通風ノズルにおいて、空気案内ブロックを上下、左右等任意の方向に偏向するための調整装置が設けられ、該調整装置に球体の手動ノブを設けたものが開示されている。   In Patent Document 3, an adjustment device for deflecting the air guide block in an arbitrary direction such as up and down, left and right is provided in a ventilation nozzle for a traveling vehicle interior, and the adjustment device is provided with a spherical manual knob. It is disclosed.

特許文献４には、空気調和機の室内ユニットにおいて、左右風向板の取っ手部が上下風向板を軸支する支柱の側方からの投影面上に位置するように設けたものが開示されている。   Patent Document 4 discloses an indoor unit of an air conditioner that is provided so that the handle portion of the left and right wind direction plates is positioned on the projection surface from the side of the column that supports the vertical wind direction plate. .

実開平０５−７３４４９号公報（図１、図１３）Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 05-73449 (FIGS. 1 and 13) 実開昭６２−８３１３６号公報（図１）Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 62-83136 (FIG. 1) 特開平１０−１８１３４６号公報（図４−図７）Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-181346 (FIGS. 4 to 7) 特開平０９−２５０８０５号公報（図１）JP 09-250805 A (FIG. 1)

特許文献１に示される略流線形球体は、円板を１８０゜反転させることによって、バレルから吹き出される空気流を集束流から拡散流へ、あるいはその反対に変化させる目的で設けられたものである。従って、エアの吹き出し態様を変えるには、主に円板の先端部やバレルでもって操作される。略流線形球体は、拡散流とするためにバレル前方へ突出している場合にのみ操作可能であるが、この場合は風上側が細く、風下側が太くなっているので、掴みにくく操作性がよくない。また、略流線形球体が、上記とは逆に、風上側が太く、風下側が細くなっているものも示されているが、風下側が円錐体状に尖った形状であるため、掴みにくい。要するに、この略流線形球体は、操作部の機能を果たす目的で設けられたものではない。   The substantially streamlined sphere shown in Patent Document 1 is provided for the purpose of changing the air flow blown from the barrel from the focused flow to the diffusion flow or vice versa by inverting the disk by 180 °. is there. Therefore, in order to change the air blowing mode, the operation is mainly performed with the tip of the disk or the barrel. An almost streamlined sphere can be operated only when it protrudes forward of the barrel in order to make it a diffuse flow, but in this case the windward side is thin and the leeward side is thick, so it is difficult to grasp and the operability is not good . Also, contrary to the above, a substantially streamlined sphere is shown having a thick leeward side and a narrower leeward side, but it is difficult to grasp because the leeward side has a conical shape. In short, the substantially streamlined sphere is not provided for the purpose of fulfilling the function of the operation unit.

特許文献２に示される操作ノブは、風上側が細く、風下側が太い、全体的にほぼフラットな形状となっているため、形状に沿って風が流れにくく乱気流が発生しやすい。さらに乱気流による風の音も発生し、また風向調整用フィン自体あるいはその周囲に水滴が付き、着露による露飛びが発生するという問題もあった。   The operation knob shown in Patent Document 2 has a thin windward side and a thick leeward side, and has an almost flat shape as a whole. Therefore, it is difficult for the wind to flow along the shape, and turbulence is likely to occur. In addition, wind noise is also generated due to turbulent airflow, and there are also problems in that water droplets are attached to the wind direction adjusting fin itself or in the vicinity thereof, and dew is generated due to condensation.

また、操作ノブの大半がフラット形状になっているため、操作ノブを掴んだときの感触(フィット感)が悪く、操作時には指への抵抗が大きくなり不快に感じる傾向があった。また、操作時には、操作ノブを掴んだ手は腕と共に動かす必要があり、その動かす範囲は手首で操作するときに比べて広くなってしまっていた。   In addition, since most of the operation knobs are flat, the touch (feeling of fit) when gripping the operation knob is poor, and the finger tends to feel uncomfortable due to increased resistance to the fingers during operation. Also, during operation, the hand holding the operation knob must move with the arm, and the range of movement is wider than when operating with the wrist.

特許文献３に示される手動ノブは、球体であるため、掴んだときに違和感があるうえに、球体の後方に渦が生じて騒音が発生する。   Since the manual knob shown in Patent Document 3 is a sphere, there is a sense of incongruity when grasped, and a vortex is generated behind the sphere to generate noise.

また、手動ノブが球体であるため、操作をしても風向調整用の空気案内ブロックの方向が手の感覚では認識できないので、自分がどれだけどの方向に動かしたのかわからなかった。   In addition, since the manual knob is a sphere, the direction of the air guide block for adjusting the wind direction cannot be recognized with the sense of the hand even if operated, so it was not possible to know how much and in what direction it moved.

特許文献４に示される取っ手部は、左右風向板の風下側に突起部を設けてこれを取っ手部としているので、薄い板状のためフィット感に乏しく、左右に動かしたとき違和感が生じる。   Since the handle portion shown in Patent Document 4 is provided with a protrusion on the leeward side of the left and right wind direction plates and is used as the handle portion, it has a thin plate shape, so that the fit is poor and a sense of incongruity occurs when it is moved left and right.

また、フラット形状の取っ手部に凹凸をつけて操作性を向上させているが、その凹凸が起因となる乱気流の発生や、その乱気流による音の発生、着露の発生が懸念される。また、凸形状の形成の仕方によっては、樹脂成型時にいわゆる「ヒケ」を生じる。   Further, although the flat handle portion is provided with unevenness to improve operability, there is a concern about the occurrence of turbulence caused by the unevenness, the generation of sound due to the turbulence, and the occurrence of dew condensation. Also, depending on how the convex shape is formed, so-called “sinks” occur during resin molding.

本発明は、上記のような課題を解決するためになされたもので、室内ユニットの吹出口に設けられる左右風向調整板において、ユーザーが手動で風向を左右に調整する際の操作性が向上し、フィット感が良好で騒音や着露を発生することがなく、また樹脂成型時にいわゆる「ヒケ」を生じることのない操作部を持つ左右風向調整板を備える空気調和機を提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems. In the left and right wind direction adjusting plate provided at the air outlet of the indoor unit, the operability when the user manually adjusts the wind direction to the left and right is improved. An object of the present invention is to provide an air conditioner having a left / right airflow direction adjustment plate having an operation part that has a good fit, does not generate noise and dew condensation, and does not cause so-called `` sinks '' during resin molding. To do.

本発明に係る空気調和機は、室内ユニットの吹出口に、複数の左右風向板が連動して、吹き出し空気を左右方向に偏向するするように設けられ、そのうちの少なくとも一つの左右風向板に操作部が設けられた空気調和機において、前記操作部は、風上側が太く、風下側が細くなっており、かつ、全周が球面形状をなす卵型の流線形状に形成されているものである。   The air conditioner according to the present invention is provided such that a plurality of left and right wind direction plates are interlocked with an air outlet of an indoor unit so as to deflect the blown air in the left and right directions, and the at least one of the left and right wind direction plates is operated. In the air conditioner provided with a section, the operation section is formed in an egg-shaped streamline shape in which the leeward side is thick, the leeward side is thin, and the entire circumference forms a spherical shape. .

本発明では、左右風向板の操作部を上記のような卵型の流線形状をもつ構造にしたので、フラット形状や凹凸のない球面構造や風上側が細く、風下側が細い流線型に比べ、指へのフィット感が生まれて掴み易くなった。   In the present invention, since the operation part of the left and right wind direction plates has the egg-shaped streamline shape as described above, the flat shape, the spherical structure without unevenness, the windward side is narrower, and the finger side is thinner than the streamlined type where the leeward side is thin. It was easier to grip with a fit.

また、操作時の指への抵抗も軽減され、滑らかな操作が可能になった。さらに、左右風向板の操作部を卵型の流線形状とすることにより、操作量や操作方向が認識できるようになった。   In addition, the finger resistance during operation has been reduced, enabling smooth operation. Furthermore, the operation amount and the operation direction can be recognized by making the operation part of the left and right wind direction plates into an egg-shaped streamline shape.

さらに、性能面では、吹き出し風が操作部の卵型流線形状に沿って流れるため、乱気流が抑制され、かつ、乱気流が抑制されることにより、音の発生も抑制することができた。また、乱気流の抑制により着露の発生も抑制することができた。   Furthermore, in terms of performance, since the blown air flows along the egg-shaped streamline shape of the operation unit, the turbulence is suppressed, and the generation of sound can be suppressed by suppressing the turbulence. Moreover, the occurrence of dew condensation could be suppressed by suppressing turbulence.

以下、本発明の実施の形態について、図面を参照して説明する。   Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

実施の形態１．
図１は本発明の実施の形態１における空気調和機の室内ユニット（室内機）の全体を示す斜視図、図２は空気調和機の概略断面図、図３は図１の上下風向板を取り外した状態の吹出口部分を示す斜視図、図４は図３の左右風向調整機構の一部を拡大して示す斜視図、図５は操作部付き左右風向板の側面図、図６（ａ）、（ｂ）はそれぞれ操作部付き左右風向板と操作部無し左右風向板の斜視図である。

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an entire indoor unit (indoor unit) of an air conditioner according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the air conditioner, and FIG. FIG. 4 is an enlarged perspective view of a part of the left / right airflow direction adjusting mechanism of FIG. 3, FIG. 5 is a side view of the left / right airflow direction plate with an operation unit, and FIG. 6 (a). , (B) is a perspective view of a left and right wind direction plate with an operating portion and a left and right wind direction plate without an operating portion, respectively.
In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes an indoor unit of an air conditioner, and the air sucked from the suction port 2 at the top of the front panel 8 passes through the heat exchanger 6 to exchange heat. Thereafter, the wind blows out from the blowout port 3 to the outside (inside the room) via the air passage 4 by the rotation of the blower 7. The blower outlet 3 formed by the rear guider 9 and the stabilizer 13 is provided on the left and right wind direction plates 10 for adjusting the blown air in the left and right direction, and on the leeward side of the left and right wind direction plates 10 to adjust the blown air in the vertical direction. An up-and-down wind direction plate 12 is provided.

風の吹出口３に設けられる左右風向調整機構は、図３〜図６に示すように、複数の左右風向板１０がスタビライザ１３に回動自在に軸支され、かつ、互いに連動するように連結桟１５で連結された構成となっている。また、左右風向調整機構は、モータ駆動による自動制御のものと、手動によるものとがあるが、本発明は後者を対象としている。
手動によるものでは、複数の左右風向板１０の組が中央部で左右２組に分離されていて、左右それぞれ独立して風向を調整できるものや、複数の左右風向板全てが一つに連結されて一方向にのみ風向調整ができるものがある。本発明は特にどちらかに限定するものではないが、実施の形態では前者のタイプを示してある。 As shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, the left / right wind direction adjusting mechanism provided at the wind outlet 3 is coupled so that a plurality of left / right wind direction plates 10 are pivotally supported by the stabilizer 13 and interlocked with each other. The structure is connected by a crosspiece 15. The left and right airflow direction adjusting mechanisms include a motor-driven automatic control type and a manual type, but the present invention is intended for the latter.
In the case of manual operation, a set of a plurality of left and right wind direction plates 10 is separated into two sets of left and right at the center, and the right and left can independently adjust the wind direction, or all the plurality of left and right wind direction plates are connected together. Some can adjust the wind direction only in one direction. The present invention is not particularly limited to either one, but the former type is shown in the embodiments.

図３では、左右１組ずつの左右風向調整機構が示されており、各組の左右風向板１０のうち、それぞれ一つの左右風向板１０には、手動による連動用の操作部１４が設けられている。操作部１４は、図５及び図６（ａ）に示すように、左右風向板１０の羽根１０ａの風下側に、アーム部１０ｂを介して一体に形成されている。また、左右風向板１０に指等が接触しないようにするために、格子状の網体からなる保護ガード１１が左右風向板１０と上下風向板１２との間に設置されている。操作部１４はこの保護ガード１１より風下側に突出して左右に動かすことができるようになっている。ここで、操作部１４を有する左右風向板１０を、特に「操作部付き左右風向板１０Ａ」と称する。また、図６（ｂ）に示すように、操作部１４を有しない左右風向板１０を「操作部無し左右風向板１０Ｂ」と称する。つまり、操作部付き左右風向板１０Ａは、操作部無し左右風向板１０Ｂにアーム部１０ｂを介して操作部１４を設けた構成と同じである。なお、図５及び図６において、１０ｃは左右風向板１０の回転中心をなす軸支部であり、先端部にはフランジ部１０ｄを有し、スタビライザ１３に回動自在に取り付けられる。１０ｅは連結桟１５と連結するための連結部である。   FIG. 3 shows a pair of left and right wind direction adjusting mechanisms for each pair of left and right winds. Of each pair of left and right wind direction plates 10, one left and right wind direction plate 10 is provided with an operation portion 14 for manual interlocking. ing. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6A, the operation unit 14 is integrally formed on the leeward side of the blade 10a of the left and right wind direction plate 10 via the arm unit 10b. In order to prevent fingers and the like from coming into contact with the left and right wind direction plates 10, a protective guard 11 made of a grid-like net is provided between the left and right wind direction plates 10 and the upper and lower wind direction plates 12. The operation unit 14 protrudes from the protective guard 11 toward the leeward side and can be moved left and right. Here, the left / right wind direction plate 10 having the operation unit 14 is particularly referred to as a “left / right wind direction plate 10A with an operation unit”. Further, as shown in FIG. 6B, the left and right wind direction plates 10 that do not have the operation unit 14 are referred to as “left and right wind direction plates 10B without an operation unit”. That is, the left / right wind direction plate 10A with the operation unit is the same as the configuration in which the operation unit 14 is provided on the left / right wind direction plate 10B without the operation unit via the arm unit 10b. 5 and 6, reference numeral 10 c denotes a shaft support part that forms the rotation center of the left and right wind direction plate 10, and has a flange part 10 d at the tip part, and is rotatably attached to the stabilizer 13. Reference numeral 10 e denotes a connecting portion for connecting to the connecting bar 15.

操作部付き左右風向板１０Ａにおいて、操作部１４を掴んで左右に動かすことにより、風向の角度を調整する。各組における一つの操作部付き左右風向板１０Ａと複数の操作部無し左右風向板１０Ｂとは連結桟１５により所定の間隔で連結されているので、操作部付き左右風向板１０Ａの操作により、その組の全ての左右風向板１０が連動して同じ角度に調整される。左右の調整角度は±４０゜の範囲となっている。また、各左右風向板１０は軸支部１０ｃのフランジ部１０ｄが取付部品のリブと台座により挟み付けられてスタビライザ１３に回動自在に取り付けられており、その際、挟み付け力を適宜に調整することにより、風圧に抵抗するようになっている。   In the left and right wind direction plate 10A with an operation unit, the angle of the wind direction is adjusted by grasping the operation unit 14 and moving it left and right. The left and right wind direction plates 10A with a single operation unit and the plurality of left and right wind direction plates 10B with no operation unit in each set are connected by a connecting bar 15 at a predetermined interval. All the left and right wind direction plates 10 of the set are interlocked and adjusted to the same angle. The left and right adjustment angles are in the range of ± 40 °. Further, each of the left and right wind direction plates 10 is rotatably attached to the stabilizer 13 with the flange portion 10d of the shaft support portion 10c being sandwiched between the ribs of the attachment parts and the pedestal, and at that time, the sandwiching force is adjusted appropriately. As a result, it resists wind pressure.

本実施の形態では、図５に示すように、操作部付き左右風向板１０Ａの操作部１４は、左右風向板１０の風下側において、風上側が太く、風下側が細くなっており、かつ、全周が球面形状をなす卵型の流線形状に形成されている。以下、この形状を「卵型流線型」と略称する。
このように、操作部１４の形状を卵型流線型とすることにより、球体よりも指へのフィット感が向上する。すなわち、親指と人差し指を合わせたとき、指の先端側が広く、手のひら側が細くなり、そこに卵型流線型がフィットすることになる。 In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the operation unit 14 of the left and right wind direction plate 10A with the operation unit is thick on the leeward side and thinner on the leeward side of the left and right wind direction plate 10, and It is formed in the shape of an egg-shaped streamline whose circumference forms a spherical shape. Hereinafter, this shape is abbreviated as “egg streamline type”.
Thus, by making the shape of the operation unit 14 an egg-shaped streamline type, the feeling of fitting to the finger is improved rather than the sphere. That is, when the thumb and index finger are combined, the tip side of the finger is wide and the palm side is narrowed, and the egg-shaped streamline type fits there.

球体ではどの方向に動かしても感触が変わらないので、どれだけどの方向に動かしたのか認識しづらいが、卵型流線型では細い先端部の指への当たり具合によって、動かした方向や動かした量が認識できる。   In the sphere, the touch does not change regardless of the direction of movement, so it is difficult to recognize how much it has moved, but in the egg-shaped streamline type, depending on how the thin tip part touches the finger, the direction and amount of movement Can be recognized.

一方、風上側が細く風下側が太い形状や、球体などの形状に比べて、本実施の形態の卵型流線型は乱気流を抑えることができる。
図７（ａ）は操作部が球体の場合、（ｂ）は凹凸無しの卵型流線型の場合、（ｃ）は凹凸有りの卵型流線型の場合の風の流れを模式的にあらわした模式図である。
図７（ａ）のように、操作部が球体の場合は球体の形状に沿って風が流れないため、球体の風下側に風の流れが絶たれるデッドスペースが発生し、このデッドスペースにて風の流れの速さの違いにより速い方に空気が引き寄せられて渦状の空気の流れが発生し、これが乱気流となる。一方、図７（ｂ）のように、操作部が凹凸の無い卵型流線型の場合はその形状に沿って風が流れるため、風の流れに速度差がないので乱気流が発生しない。また、図７（ｃ）の凹凸のある卵型流線型の場合も図７（ｂ）と同様に乱気流は発生しない。 On the other hand, the egg-shaped streamline type of the present embodiment can suppress turbulence as compared with a shape such as a thin windward side and a thick leeward side, or a shape such as a sphere.
7A is a schematic diagram schematically showing the flow of wind when the operation unit is a sphere, FIG. 7B is an egg-shaped streamline type without unevenness, and FIG. It is.
As shown in FIG. 7A, when the operation unit is a sphere, since the wind does not flow along the shape of the sphere, a dead space where the wind flow is cut off occurs on the leeward side of the sphere. Due to the difference in the speed of the wind flow, the air is attracted to the faster direction to generate a spiral air flow, which becomes a turbulent air current. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 7B, when the operation unit is an egg-shaped streamline type without unevenness, the wind flows along the shape, and therefore there is no speed difference in the wind flow, so that no turbulence is generated. In addition, in the case of the egg-shaped streamline type with unevenness in FIG. 7C, turbulence is not generated as in FIG. 7B.

したがって、乱気流が抑えられることにより、音の発生が抑えられる。また、左右風向板１０やその周囲部分への着露の発生も抑えられる。   Therefore, generation of sound can be suppressed by suppressing turbulence. Further, the occurrence of dew condensation on the left and right wind direction plates 10 and the surrounding portions thereof can be suppressed.

実施の形態２．
前記凹凸の無い卵型流線型の操作部１４を有する上下風向板１０を、樹脂により一体成型する場合、いわゆる「ヒケ」が操作部１４に生じることがある。ここで、「ヒケ」とは、金型で成型した樹脂部品が、温度低下に伴い収縮し、表面が凹む現象のことをいう。
そこで、このような樹脂部品の成型時に生じるヒケを防止するため、いわゆる「肉盗み」と称する凹凸を形成するものである。
本実施の形態では、図５、図６、図７（ｃ）に示すように、操作部１４の中心軸１６（または風向調整用の動作線）と平行に延びる凹部１７を複数、円周方向に形成したものである。この凹部１７があるため、樹脂成型時のヒケの発生を抑えることができる。 Embodiment 2. FIG.
When the up-and-down wind direction plate 10 having the egg-shaped streamline-type operation unit 14 without the unevenness is integrally formed of resin, so-called “sink” may occur in the operation unit 14. Here, “sink” refers to a phenomenon in which a resin part molded with a mold shrinks with a decrease in temperature and the surface is recessed.
Therefore, in order to prevent sink marks that occur during molding of such resin parts, irregularities called so-called “meat stealing” are formed.
In the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 5, 6, and 7 (c), a plurality of concave portions 17 extending in parallel with the central axis 16 (or the operation line for adjusting the wind direction) of the operation unit 14 are provided in the circumferential direction. Is formed. Since there is this concave portion 17, the occurrence of sink marks during resin molding can be suppressed.

また、凹状溝１７部に指の肉が入り込み、球体や凹凸のない流線型よりも、よりフィット感が向上する。   Moreover, the flesh of a finger enters the concave groove 17 portion, and the feeling of fitting is improved more than a streamlined type without a sphere or unevenness.

実施の形態３．
実施の形態２で示したように、凹部１７を、左右の風向調整の動作線（ここでは、操作部１４の中心軸１６）に対して、垂直や角度をつけた方向ではなく、平行に形成するものである。 Embodiment 3 FIG.
As shown in the second embodiment, the concave portion 17 is formed in parallel with the left and right wind direction adjustment operation lines (here, the central axis 16 of the operation unit 14), not in a direction perpendicular to or angled. To do.

左右の風向調整操作時に凹凸による指への抵抗が抑えられ、不快感なくスムーズに調整できる。   Resistance to fingers due to unevenness is suppressed during left and right wind direction adjustment operations, and adjustment can be performed smoothly without discomfort.

凹凸がない状態や、凹凸が風向調整の動作線に対して垂直や角度をつけた方向のときに比べて、風の流れをより改善できるため、乱気流をより抑えられる（図７（ｃ）参照）。   Since the flow of wind can be improved more than when there is no unevenness or when the unevenness is perpendicular or angled with respect to the operating line for adjusting the wind direction, turbulence can be further suppressed (see FIG. 7C). ).

乱気流が抑えられることにより、音の発生が抑えられるとともに、着露の発生が抑えられる。   By suppressing the turbulence, the generation of sound is suppressed and the occurrence of condensation is suppressed.
