Description

本発明は空気調和機や空気清浄機の空気調和機器に係り、特に本体前面の表面処理に関するものである。   The present invention relates to an air conditioner or an air conditioner such as an air purifier, and particularly relates to a surface treatment of a front surface of a main body.

空気調和機の室内ユニット１は、図１に示すように、熱交換器４と送風ファン３を支持するケーシング２と、同ケーシング２に被着された前面パネル５と、同前面パネルに係止された化粧カバー６で構成され、前記前面パネル５の上面に上面吸込口９、前面に前面吸込口１０があり、下部には吹出口１１が備えられ、前記上面吸込口９と前面吸込口１０から吸い込まれた吸込空気が熱交換されて冷気あるいは暖気となり、前記送風ファン３により前記吹出口１１から室内に送出されるものである。   As shown in FIG. 1, the indoor unit 1 of the air conditioner includes a casing 2 that supports the heat exchanger 4 and the blower fan 3, a front panel 5 that is attached to the casing 2, and a latch that is engaged with the front panel. The front cover 5 has an upper surface suction port 9 on the upper surface, a front surface suction port 10 on the front surface, and a blower port 11 on the lower side. The upper surface suction port 9 and the front surface suction port 10 are provided. The air sucked in from the air is heat-exchanged to become cold air or warm air, and is sent out from the air outlet 11 into the room by the blower fan 3.

近年は空気調和機の室内ユニットは設置する室内のインテリアに馴染むデザインが好まれている。そのため本体色は室内の壁紙に使われている白色や薄いベージュ色が多く、その上にウレタン高光沢塗装やパールやメタリック塗装を施し、質感を向上させて高級感を出すように処理が施されている。また形態においては吸込桟や吹出口による凹凸や孔によって存在が目立ちインテリアに違和感を与えることがないように、本体前面側は吸込桟を設けずにフラットなパネル形状が多くなってきている。このタイプでは空気の吸込みはユーザーの視線からは見えない上面側吸込口から吸い込まれ、吹出口は運転停止時に風向板により閉じられることになる。   In recent years, an indoor unit of an air conditioner has been favored with a design that fits into the interior of the room. For this reason, the main body color is white or light beige, which is used for indoor wallpaper, and urethane high-gloss paint, pearl or metallic paint is applied on it to improve the texture and give a sense of quality. ing. Also, in the form, the front side of the main body has a flat panel shape without providing a suction bar so that the presence of the unevenness and holes due to the suction bar and the air outlet is conspicuous and does not give the interior a sense of incongruity. In this type, air suction is sucked from the upper surface side suction port that cannot be seen from the user's line of sight, and the air outlet is closed by the wind direction plate when the operation is stopped.

しかし、空気調和機の室内ユニットは１つのモデルで例えば２．２Ｋｗから４．０Ｋｗまでの幅広い冷暖房能力に対応するため、高能力機種は上面側からだけの吸込みでは吸込量が不足することになる。また前記熱交換器４のように３段に折れて前面側に配置された構造では前面側からの吸込量が多いため効率を上げるために、従来例１として図７（a）の前面パネル分解斜視図の空気調和機の室内ユニット３００のように前面パネル３０１の前面に化粧カバー３０２を備え、前記前面パネル３０１の上部に凹部３０３を設けて同凹部の一側面を吸込口３０４とするもの（特許文献１参照）が提案されている。   However, the indoor unit of the air conditioner is a single model that supports a wide range of air conditioning capacity, for example, from 2.2 Kw to 4.0 Kw. . Further, in the structure in which the heat exchanger 4 is folded in three steps and arranged on the front side, the front panel shown in FIG. Like the indoor unit 300 of the air conditioner in the perspective view, a decorative cover 302 is provided on the front surface of the front panel 301, a concave portion 303 is provided on the upper portion of the front panel 301, and one side surface of the concave portion serves as a suction port 304 ( Patent Document 1) has been proposed.

また空気清浄機においても、室内のインテリアに馴染むデザインが好まれている傾向は同様であるから、本体前面側には吸込桟を設けないフラットなパネル形状が提案されている。例えば従来例２として図８の空気清浄機の斜視図では、空気清浄機４００は前面パネル４０１に凹部４０２を設け凹部４０２の中央に吸込用開口部４０３を開けて同吸込用開口部４０３を覆うように化粧カバー４０４を備え、吸込開口部４０３と化粧カバー４０４の隙間を前面吸込口４０５とする構成であり、前面吸込口４０５は正面からは視認しにくくなっている。（特許文献２参照）
一方、前面パネルの前面に凹部を設け、その前に化粧カバーを備え同凹部と化粧カバーの隙間を前面吸込口とする空気調和機の室内ユニットや空気清浄機では、ユーザーの視線からは直接前面吸込口は見えなくても、化粧カバーの背面が凹部面に影として映り込むことになり、折角フラットなデザインであるにも関わらず、反って前面吸込口が目立つ結果となる。これを目立たなくさせるために前記従来例１では図７（ｂ）の縦断面図に示すように化粧カバー３０２の上端に光沢面３０５を設け、同光沢面３０５を前面パネル凹面３０６より上方に突き出すと共に、光沢面３０５の表裏面の上方を後方に傾斜させたから、光沢面３０５の反射効果による高級感を生み出すとともに、さらに光沢面３０５正面からの視界を透明部品の屈折効果３０８で吸込口３０４の上面３０７の下端よりも上の部分を見えるようにすることができ、吸込口３０４から前面パネル３０１の内側の部分が見えないようにすることができる。 In the air purifier, since the tendency to favor the design that fits the interior of the room is the same, a flat panel shape without a suction bar on the front side of the main body has been proposed. For example, in the perspective view of the air cleaner of FIG. 8 as Conventional Example 2, the air cleaner 400 has a recess 402 in the front panel 401 and opens a suction opening 403 at the center of the recess 402 to cover the suction opening 403. Thus, the makeup cover 404 is provided, and the gap between the suction opening 403 and the makeup cover 404 is a front suction port 405. The front suction port 405 is difficult to see from the front. (See Patent Document 2)
On the other hand, in air conditioner indoor units and air purifiers that have a recess on the front face of the front panel and have a decorative cover in front of it, and the gap between the recess and the decorative cover is the front inlet, Even if the suction port is not visible, the back surface of the decorative cover is reflected as a shadow on the concave surface, and the front suction port is warped in spite of the fact that the design is flat. In order to make this inconspicuous, in the conventional example 1, a glossy surface 305 is provided at the upper end of the decorative cover 302 as shown in the longitudinal sectional view of FIG. 7B, and the same glossy surface 305 protrudes above the concave surface 306 of the front panel. At the same time, since the upper part of the front and back surfaces of the glossy surface 305 is inclined rearward, a high-class feeling is produced by the reflection effect of the glossy surface 305, and the field of view from the front of the glossy surface 305 is further reduced by the refraction effect 308 of the transparent part The portion above the lower end of the upper surface 307 can be made visible, and the portion inside the front panel 301 can be made invisible from the suction port 304.

しかし、この場合は前面パネル３０１に重ねて化粧カバー３０１を設けるため材料が二倍掛かり、さらに化粧カバー３０２を光沢のあるアクリル等の透明材料で加工する必要があり材料コストを上げることとなってしまう。   However, in this case, since the decorative cover 301 is provided on the front panel 301, the material is doubled, and the decorative cover 302 needs to be processed with a transparent material such as glossy acrylic, which increases the material cost. End up.

また、前面吸込口を目立たなくさせるために従来例３として図９の前面グリル拡大断面図に示すように空気調和機の室内ユニット５００では、前面パネル５０１と化粧カバー５０２の隙間を前面吸込口５０３として、孤を描くように凹部を設け同凹部を風路奥壁５０４としており、風路奥壁５０４とその下部を合わせて前面吸込口の全長にわたって、光が透過できる材質で作られた飾り板５０５を形成し、飾り板５０５の裏面には光を反射させる反射板５０６を設ける。そして風路奥壁５０４の内部に入射した光が、風路奥壁の背面の反射板５０６で反射され風路奥壁の表面側５０４に戻るとき、風路奥壁５０４の内部を照らして風路奥壁自身をほのかに発光させることになる。そのため室内ユニット５００を見上げた視線は前面吸込口５０３より風路奥壁５０４に注がれることになり、前面吸込口５０３を開口部として認識することが少なくなり、室内と違和感なく調和させることができるようになる。   In order to make the front suction port inconspicuous, as shown in the enlarged front sectional view of the front grill in FIG. 9 as Conventional Example 3, in the indoor unit 500 of the air conditioner, the gap between the front panel 501 and the decorative cover 502 is set to the front suction port 503. As shown in the figure, a concave portion is provided so as to draw an arc, and the concave portion is defined as an air channel back wall 504, and the decorative plate made of a material that can transmit light over the entire length of the front suction port by combining the air channel back wall 504 and the lower portion thereof. 505 is formed, and a reflective plate 506 that reflects light is provided on the back surface of the decorative plate 505. Then, when the light incident on the inside of the air channel back wall 504 is reflected by the reflector 506 on the back surface of the air channel back wall and returns to the surface side 504 of the air channel back wall, the interior of the air channel back wall 504 is illuminated The back wall of the road itself emits light. Therefore, the line of sight looking up at the indoor unit 500 is poured from the front suction port 503 to the air channel inner wall 504, and the front suction port 503 is less likely to be recognized as an opening, and can be harmonized with the room without a sense of incongruity. become able to.

しかし、この場合も前面吸込口５０３の幅と同じ幅が必要な飾り板５０５をアクリル等の透明材料で加工することと、光を反射させる反射板が必要となることで材料コストを上げることとなってしまう。（特許文献３参照）
特開２００４−２５７６１９号公報 特開２００２−２８２４２６号公報 特開２００４−８５０２２号公報 However, in this case as well, the decorative plate 505 that requires the same width as the front suction port 503 is processed with a transparent material such as acrylic, and the need for a reflecting plate that reflects light increases the material cost. turn into. (See Patent Document 3)

上記従来例１または従来例３に記載された空気調和機の室内ユニットでは、光沢のあるアクリル等の透明材料および反射板で光を反射して吸込口の凹部を照らし前面吸込口周辺を明るくさせて前面吸込口を目立たなくさせるとともに、ひいては空気調和機の室内ユニットが室内に溶け込むデザインとなる効果があるが、前面吸込口と同幅を有する透明材料による化粧カバーもしくは飾り板、さらに光を反射させる反射板はヘアーライン等の処理を必要とするため、材料コストを上げることとなってしまう。   In the indoor unit of the air conditioner described in Conventional Example 1 or Conventional Example 3 above, light is reflected by a transparent material such as glossy acrylic or the like and a reflecting plate to illuminate the concave portion of the suction port and brighten the front suction port periphery. The front suction port is made inconspicuous, and the indoor unit of the air conditioner is designed to melt into the room, but the decorative cover or decorative board made of a transparent material having the same width as the front suction port, and also reflects light Since the reflecting plate to be processed requires a treatment such as a hairline, the material cost is increased.

FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the indoor unit, FIG. 4 is an indoor unit of the air conditioner according to the present invention, (a) is a partial front view, (b) is an AA ′ enlarged end view of (a), and (c) is FIG. It is a partial reduction rear view of a decorative cover. Note that the same reference numerals are used for the same components as those in the conventional example described above.

空気調和機の室内ユニット１は、熱交換器４と送風ファン３とフィルター８と図示しない電装品箱を支持するケーシング２と、同ケーシング２に被着された蒲鉾状の前面パネル５と、同前面パネルに係止された化粧カバー６で構成され、前記前面パネル５の上面に上面吸込口９、前面に前面吸込口１０があり、下部には吹出口１１が備えられ、前記上面吸込口９と前面吸込口１０から吸い込まれた吸込空気を熱交換して冷気あるいは暖気とし、前記送風ファン３により吹出口１１から風向板１２で風向を調整して室内に送出している。   The indoor unit 1 of the air conditioner includes a heat exchanger 4, a blower fan 3, a filter 8, a casing 2 that supports an electrical component box (not shown), a bowl-shaped front panel 5 that is attached to the casing 2, The front cover 5 includes a decorative cover 6, which has a top suction port 9 on the top surface of the front panel 5, a front suction port 10 on the front surface, and a blower outlet 11 on the bottom. The intake air sucked from the front suction port 10 is heat-exchanged to make cold air or warm air, and the wind fan 3 adjusts the air direction from the air outlet 11 with the air direction plate 12 and sends it out to the room.

前面パネル５は正面側から背面側に向かい凹部５０を有する。凹部５０の上下位置は上面吸込口９と吹出口１１の間にあり、横幅は前面パネルの全幅近くある。   The front panel 5 has a recess 50 from the front side to the back side. The vertical position of the recessed part 50 is between the upper surface inlet 9 and the blower outlet 11, and the horizontal width is near the full width of the front panel.

凹部５０の底面５０aには、底面５０aの背面側でフィルター８と重なる部分が開口され開口部５３となり、室内ユニット１の右端側に配置される図示しない電装品箱と重なる部分は保護壁５４となる。開口部５３の手前側には開口部５３を上下に跨るように化粧カバー６を取り付ける取付板５５が数箇設けられている。また保護壁５４は取付板５５と立ち上り高さの間隔Ｘを合わせてあり、取付板５５と保護壁５４の上部立ち上がり面には上面係止孔５６があり、正面側には前面係止孔５６ａがある。   On the bottom surface 50 a of the recess 50, a portion that overlaps the filter 8 on the back side of the bottom surface 50 a is opened to form an opening 53, and a portion that overlaps an electrical component box (not shown) arranged on the right end side of the indoor unit 1 is a protective wall 54. Become. Several attachment plates 55 for attaching the decorative cover 6 are provided on the front side of the opening 53 so as to straddle the opening 53 vertically. The protective wall 54 is aligned with the mounting plate 55 at a rising height interval X. The upper rising surface 56 of the mounting plate 55 and the protective wall 54 has an upper surface locking hole 56 and the front surface has a front locking hole 56a. There is.

開口部５３の周縁には平坦面５２が形成され、同平坦面５２から凹部５０の側面５１にかけて緩やかな曲面状に形成され、前面パネル５の全体または少なくても凹部５０の側面５１と平坦面５２には鏡面のように光を反射させるほどの光沢のあるウレタンによる高光沢塗装５８が施されている。   A flat surface 52 is formed on the periphery of the opening 53, and is formed in a gently curved shape from the flat surface 52 to the side surface 51 of the recess 50. The entire front panel 5 or at least the side surface 51 of the recess 50 and the flat surface are formed. 52 is provided with a high gloss paint 58 made of urethane which is glossy enough to reflect light like a mirror surface.

化粧カバー６は正面側上下方向に緩やかな曲面をつけたフラットな形状であり、上下左右寸法は前記凹部５０の平坦面５２と重合するぐらいがよい。   The decorative cover 6 has a flat shape with a gentle curved surface in the vertical direction on the front side, and the vertical and horizontal dimensions are preferably overlapped with the flat surface 52 of the recess 50.

化粧カバー６の背面側には上部に前記上面係止孔５６に係止する上面係止爪６１と前記前面係止孔５６ａに係止する前面係止爪６１ａが設けられている。   On the back side of the decorative cover 6, an upper surface locking claw 61 that locks into the upper surface locking hole 56 and a front surface locking claw 61 a that locks into the front surface locking hole 56 a are provided at the top.

化粧カバー６の色は前記前面パネルと同色でも良いが、デザインのバリエーションを図り別色としてもよい。次に化粧カバー６の背面周縁部に化粧カバー６の色とは異なる色でなる塗装６２を施した色彩部６３を設ける。塗装６２の塗装色は彩度の高いはっきりとした明るい色がよく蛍光色でもよい。なお、色彩部６３は化粧カバー６の背面全面に施してもよい。   The color of the decorative cover 6 may be the same color as that of the front panel, but a different design color may be used. Next, the color part 63 which gave the coating 62 which becomes a color different from the color of the decorative cover 6 in the back peripheral part of the decorative cover 6 is provided. The paint color of the paint 62 may be a bright color with high saturation and may be a fluorescent color. The color portion 63 may be provided on the entire back surface of the decorative cover 6.

化粧カバー６を前面パネル５に係止するには、上面係止爪６１を上面係止孔５６に引掛けて化粧カバー６を手前側に倒し、前面係止爪６１ａを前面係止孔５６ａに係止させる。取付けた際には化粧カバーと凹部の間は前記取付板５５の立ち上がり分の間隔Ｘをあけ、塗装６２を施した色彩部６３と前記凹部５０の平坦面５２とが重合するように取り付けられる。   In order to lock the decorative cover 6 to the front panel 5, the upper surface locking claw 61 is hooked on the upper surface locking hole 56, the decorative cover 6 is tilted forward, and the front locking claw 61a is moved to the front locking hole 56a. Lock. At the time of attachment, an interval X corresponding to the rising of the attachment plate 55 is provided between the decorative cover and the recess, and the color portion 63 provided with the coating 62 and the flat surface 52 of the recess 50 are attached so as to overlap.

係止した前面パネル５と化粧カバー６には正面側から見ると隙間Ｙができる。この隙間Ｙが前面吸込口１０となり、前面吸込口１０から吸い込まれた空気が曲面状の側面５１に導かれ、開口部５３からフィルター８を通り送風ファン３により吸い込まれる。   A gap Y is formed between the front panel 5 and the decorative cover 6 that are locked when viewed from the front side. The gap Y becomes the front suction port 10, and air sucked from the front suction port 10 is guided to the curved side surface 51, and is sucked by the blower fan 3 through the filter 8 from the opening 53.

この際、間隔Ｘ＜隙間Ｙとなるように側面５１の曲面状を緩やかな形状となるように構成することが望ましい。   At this time, it is desirable to configure the curved surface of the side surface 51 to be a gentle shape so that the interval X <the gap Y.

壁に掛けられた空気調和機の室内ユニット１を見上げると、前面吸込口１０から前面パネル５の凹部５０に差し込んだ光２０は凹部５０全体を明るくするとともに、凹部５０の表面に施された高光沢塗装５８により反射されて化粧カバー６の背面を明るく照らす。これにより従来なら暗部となる化粧カバー６の背面周縁が明るくなり、明るくなった塗装６２を施した色彩部６３が今度は凹部５０の高光沢塗装５８に映り込むことになり、映り込み５７としてはっきりとユーザー７に視認される。   Looking up at the indoor unit 1 of the air conditioner hung on the wall, the light 20 inserted from the front suction port 10 into the recess 50 of the front panel 5 brightens the entire recess 50 and the height applied to the surface of the recess 50. Reflected by the gloss coating 58, the back surface of the decorative cover 6 is brightly illuminated. As a result, the peripheral edge of the back surface of the decorative cover 6, which is conventionally a dark part, becomes brighter, and the color part 63 with the brighter paint 62 is now reflected in the high-gloss paint 58 of the concave part 50. And is visually recognized by the user 7.

これにより従来は化粧カバー６の影により本体に暗い印象を与えていた前面吸込口１０に彩度の高いはっきりとした明るい色が反映されて、前面吸込口１０も明るくなり、デザインのアクセントとなると共に、高級感を生み出し意匠性の向上が図れる。   As a result, a clear bright color with high saturation is reflected on the front suction port 10 which has conventionally given a dark impression to the main body due to the shadow of the decorative cover 6, and the front suction port 10 is also brightened, which is an accent of the design. At the same time, it creates a sense of quality and improves design.

なお、間隔Ｘ＜隙間Ｙとなっていることにより、映り込んだ塗装６２は側面５１の緩やかな曲面に幅広く映り込むことになりさらに視認しやすくなる。   In addition, since the distance X <the gap Y, the reflected paint 62 is reflected widely on the gently curved surface of the side surface 51 and is more easily visible.

さらに、凹部５０の平坦面５２により、前記化粧カバーの塗装６２を施した色彩部６３が映り込む面積が広くなり、やや斜めから見た場合には、奥までくっきりと塗装６２が映り込む面が覗け、より効果的である。   Furthermore, the flat surface 52 of the recess 50 increases the area in which the color portion 63 to which the decorative cover coating 62 is applied is reflected, and when viewed from a slight angle, the surface on which the coating 62 is clearly reflected to the back. Peek and be more effective.

なお、実施例１では、空気調和機の室内ユニット１の前面吸込口１０および凹部５０を上下左右に設けているが、これに限らず１か所でもよい。   In addition, in Example 1, although the front inlet 10 and the recessed part 50 of the indoor unit 1 of an air conditioner are provided in the upper and lower sides and the right and left, it is not restricted to this and may be one place.

また、凹部５０の表面処理は光を少しでも反射させる効果のある処理であれば、実施例１に限らず、パールやメタリック塗装でもよいし、塗装に限らず蒸着メッキによる鏡面加工処理でもよい。さらに前面パネル自体をステンレス材で加工してもよい。   Further, the surface treatment of the recess 50 is not limited to the first embodiment as long as it has an effect of reflecting light as much as possible, and may be pearl or metallic coating, or may be mirror processing by vapor deposition plating without being limited to coating. Further, the front panel itself may be processed with a stainless material.

さらに、凹部５０にのみ上記処理を施した別の部材を組み合わせてもよいし、メタリック感のあるアルミシール部材を貼付してもよい。   Furthermore, another member that has been subjected to the above-described treatment may be combined only in the recess 50, or an aluminum seal member having a metallic feeling may be attached.

同様に化粧カバー６の背面に施す塗装６２は、塗装に限らず蛍光色の塩ビ材のシール部材等の別部材を貼付してもよい。   Similarly, the coating 62 applied to the back surface of the decorative cover 6 is not limited to coating, and another member such as a sealing member made of a fluorescent PVC material may be attached.

The difference is that the front panel 205 has concave portions 250 on the left and right sides of the front, and a decorative cover 206 and another decorative cover 206a.

化粧カバー２０６の表面色は夏用に白および寒色系の色彩とする。そして化粧カバー２０６の背面には図示しないが本体色よりはっきりとした蛍光色等の寒色の塗装２６２を施す。また、化粧カバー２０６ａには冬用にクリーム色や暖色系の色彩とする。そして化粧カバーの背面には図示しないが本体色よりはっきりとした蛍光色等の暖色の塗装２６２ａを施す。   The surface color of the decorative cover 206 is white and cold colors for summer. A cold-colored coating 262 such as a fluorescent color that is clearer than the main body color is applied to the back surface of the decorative cover 206, although not shown. In addition, the decorative cover 206a has a cream color or a warm color for winter. A warm-colored coating 262a such as a fluorescent color that is clearer than the main body color is applied to the back surface of the decorative cover.
