例えば、部屋の温度等や湿度を調節する空気調和装置の室内機において、室内機の熱交換器に発生した結露水が室内機の風路壁の壁面に付着して風路壁を冷却し、風路壁に結露が生じることがあった。この結露を生じさせないために、従来、特許文献1に開示されたように風路壁の排水路近傍を2重構造にしたり、また特許文献2に開示されたように排水路を傾斜させて結露水の滞留を防ぐ構造が提案されている。また、特許文献3に開示されたように筐体の肉厚を厚くして断熱性を高めて結露を防止する構造や、特許文献4に開示されたように結露する部分の背面に発砲スチロールなどの断熱材を貼り付ける構造、および結露する部分の背面に中空構造を設けて断熱する構造が提案されている。   For example, in an indoor unit of an air conditioner that adjusts the temperature and humidity of a room, the condensed water generated in the heat exchanger of the indoor unit adheres to the wall surface of the indoor unit's air channel wall to cool the air channel wall, Condensation may occur on the air channel wall. In order to prevent this dew condensation, conventionally, as disclosed in Patent Document 1, the vicinity of the drainage channel of the air channel wall has a double structure, or as disclosed in Patent Document 2, the drainage channel is inclined to form dew condensation. A structure for preventing water retention has been proposed. Further, as disclosed in Patent Document 3, the thickness of the casing is increased to increase the heat insulating property to prevent condensation, and as disclosed in Patent Document 4, foaming polystyrene is provided on the back surface of the portion where condensation occurs. A structure in which a heat insulating material is affixed and a structure in which a hollow structure is provided on the back surface of a portion to be condensed are proposed.

しかしながら、上記従来の技術は、熱交換器で発生する結露水により風路壁が冷却されることに対し、断熱材などを使って断熱性を高めることで結露を防止する構造であるため、部品点数が増え製造コストが増大する等の問題があった。   However, the conventional technology described above is a structure that prevents condensation by increasing heat insulation using a heat insulating material, etc., while the air passage wall is cooled by the dew condensation water generated in the heat exchanger. There was a problem that the number of points increased and the manufacturing cost increased.

本発明は、上記に鑑みてなされたものであって、風路壁の壁面に生じる結露に対して、断熱材等を使わずに製造コストが増大することなく結露の発生を抑制することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the above, and an object of the present invention is to suppress the occurrence of condensation without increasing the manufacturing cost without using a heat insulating material or the like for the condensation occurring on the wall surface of the air passage wall. And

上述した課題を解決し、目的を達成するために、本発明は、空気調和装置の室内機の風路壁面の結露を防止するための、室内機の構造であり、熱交換器と、熱交換器を収納するとともに空気取入口から熱交換器に至る吸込風路、及び熱交換器から空気吹出口に至る吹出風路が形成された本体箱体と、吹出風路に設けられて、空気取入口から取り込んだ空気を熱交換器を通過させたのち、空気吹出口から吹き出す送風機とを備えた空気調和装置の室内機において、複数の熱交換器は、本体箱体内の上部寄りに送風機に対向して配置され下端が本体箱体の背面寄りに配置された背面熱交換器を含み、本体箱体の背面寄りに、吹出風路の背面側風路壁を構成する背面板が設けられており、熱交換器を通過する前の空気、或いは本体箱体外部の空気の熱を、背面板に伝達する熱伝達手段が、本体箱体に設けられていることを特徴とする。   In order to solve the above-described problems and achieve the object, the present invention is an indoor unit structure for preventing dew condensation on the air passage wall surface of an indoor unit of an air conditioner. And a main body box body in which a suction air passage from the air intake to the heat exchanger and a blow-off air passage from the heat exchanger to the air outlet are formed, and the air intake In the indoor unit of an air conditioner equipped with a blower that blows out air from the inlet through the heat exchanger and then blows out from the air outlet, the multiple heat exchangers face the blower near the top in the main body box The rear plate is arranged near the back of the main body box, and the back plate constituting the back side air passage wall of the blowout air passage is provided near the back of the main body box. , Air before passing through the heat exchanger, or air outside the body box The heat transfer means for transferring the back plate, characterized in that provided in the main box body.

On the other hand, since the heat of the air before passing through the heat exchanger or the air outside the main body box is transmitted, the cooling of the blowout air passage is alleviated and the manufacturing cost is reduced without using a heat insulating material or the like. There exists an effect that generation | occurrence | production of the dew condensation of a wind path wall surface can be suppressed, without increasing.

以下に、本発明にかかる空気調和装置の室内機の実施の形態を図面に基づいて詳細に説明する。なお、この実施の形態によりこの発明が限定されるものではない。   Embodiments of an indoor unit of an air conditioner according to the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments.

実施の形態1.
はじめに、空気調和装置の室内機の全体的な構造について説明する。図1は、この発明の実施の形態1にかかる空気調和装置の室内機の縦断面図である。図2は、図1のA部分を拡大して示す拡大図である。本実施の形態の室内機は、送風機4と、熱交換器(前面側熱交換器3、背面側熱交換器8)と、送風機4及び熱交換器3,8を収納する本体箱体1とを有している。
Embodiment 1 FIG.
First, the overall structure of the indoor unit of the air conditioner will be described. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of an indoor unit of an air-conditioning apparatus according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. FIG. 2 is an enlarged view showing an A portion of FIG. The indoor unit of the present embodiment includes a blower 4, a heat exchanger (a front-side heat exchanger 3, a rear-side heat exchanger 8), a main body box 1 that houses the blower 4 and the heat exchangers 3 and 8. have.

送風機4は図1に示す断面において、本体箱体1のほぼ中央よりに配置されている。熱交換器は、送風機4を囲むように配置され前面側熱交換器3及び背面側熱交換器8からなる。前面側熱交換器3及び背面側熱交換器8は、図示しない熱源機(室外機)と配管により接続されており、この熱源機から供給された冷媒が内部を循環する。   The blower 4 is disposed substantially from the center of the main body box 1 in the cross section shown in FIG. The heat exchanger is arranged so as to surround the blower 4 and includes a front side heat exchanger 3 and a back side heat exchanger 8. The front side heat exchanger 3 and the back side heat exchanger 8 are connected to a heat source unit (outdoor unit) (not shown) by piping, and the refrigerant supplied from the heat source unit circulates inside.

本体箱体1の内部には、空気取入口19から前面側熱交換器3及び背面側熱交換器8に至る吸込風路17と、前面側熱交換器3及び背面側熱交換器8から空気吹出口20に至る吹出風路18が形成されている。送風機4は、円筒状の多翼ファンを有するシロッコファン型の送風機であり、中央部から吸い込んだ空気を遠心力により周囲に吹き出す。送風機4は、吹出風路18に設けられて、空気取入口19から取り込んだ空気を熱交換器を通過させたのち、空気吹出口20から吹き出す。冷房運転及び除湿運転時においては、空気取入口19から取り込まれた空気は、前面側熱交換器3及び背面側熱交換器8にて冷却されて、空気吹出口20から吹き出す。   Inside the main body box 1, air is introduced from the air intake port 19 to the front side heat exchanger 3 and the rear side heat exchanger 8, and from the front side heat exchanger 3 and the rear side heat exchanger 8. A blowout air passage 18 reaching the air outlet 20 is formed. The blower 4 is a sirocco fan type blower having a cylindrical multi-blade fan, and blows out air sucked from a central portion to the periphery by centrifugal force. The blower 4 is provided in the blowout air passage 18 and blows out the air taken in from the air intake port 19 from the air blower outlet 20 after passing through the heat exchanger. During the cooling operation and the dehumidifying operation, the air taken in from the air intake port 19 is cooled by the front side heat exchanger 3 and the back side heat exchanger 8 and blown out from the air outlet 20.

空気取入口19には、ほこり等を取り除くフィルタ7が設置されている。また、空気吹出口20には、風向きを左右に切り替える左右風向ベーン5や、風向きを上下方向に切り替える上下風向フラップ6が設けられている。   A filter 7 that removes dust and the like is installed at the air intake 19. Further, the air outlet 20 is provided with a left and right wind direction vane 5 that switches the wind direction to the left and right and an up and down wind direction flap 6 that switches the wind direction to the up and down direction.

前面側熱交換器3は、本体箱体1の内部の前面寄り(部屋の内部寄り)の位置で送風機4に対向して配置されている。一方、背面側熱交換器8は、本体箱体1の内部の上部寄りの位置で送風機4に対向して配置され下端が本体箱体1の背面寄り(部屋の壁寄り)に位置している。   The front-side heat exchanger 3 is disposed to face the blower 4 at a position closer to the front surface (closer to the interior of the room) inside the main body box 1. On the other hand, the back-side heat exchanger 8 is disposed facing the blower 4 at a position near the upper part inside the main body box 1, and the lower end is located near the back of the main body box 1 (close to the wall of the room). .

また、本体箱体1の背面寄りに、吹出風路18の背面側風路壁を構成する背面板11が設けられている。背面板11は、背面側熱交換器8の下端の下方に位置している。そして、本実施の形態においては、吸込風路17が延長されて背面板11の裏面まで延びる延長風路21が形成されている(図2)。延長風路21は、背面側熱交換器8の下端に設けられた断熱材10と本体箱体1の裏面壁面1aとの間に設けられており、背面板11の裏面11aを含めて形成されている。この延長風路21は、吸込風路17と連通しており、熱交換器(前面側熱交換器3、背面側熱交換器8)を通過する前の暖気を図2に破線矢印Cで示すように背面板11の裏面11aまで導き、この暖気を背面板11の裏面に接触させる。すなわち、延長風路21は、熱交換器(前面側熱交換器3、背面側熱交換器8)を通過する前の空気の熱を、背面板11に伝達する熱伝達手段を構成している。   Further, a back plate 11 constituting a back side air passage wall of the blowing air passage 18 is provided near the back of the main body box 1. The back plate 11 is located below the lower end of the back side heat exchanger 8. And in this Embodiment, the suction air path 17 is extended and the extended air path 21 extended to the back surface of the backplate 11 is formed (FIG. 2). The extension air passage 21 is provided between the heat insulating material 10 provided at the lower end of the back surface side heat exchanger 8 and the back wall surface 1 a of the main body box 1, and is formed including the back surface 11 a of the back plate 11. ing. The extended air passage 21 communicates with the suction air passage 17, and the warm air before passing through the heat exchangers (the front-side heat exchanger 3 and the rear-side heat exchanger 8) is indicated by a dashed arrow C in FIG. In this way, the warm air is brought into contact with the back surface of the back plate 11. That is, the extended air passage 21 constitutes a heat transfer means for transmitting the heat of the air before passing through the heat exchanger (the front side heat exchanger 3 and the back side heat exchanger 8) to the back plate 11. .

図3は、比較のために示す従来の空気調和装置の室内機の図2に相当する部分の拡大図である。従来、背面側熱交換器8に発生した温度の低い結露水が背面板11に伝わり、これが原因で背面板11が想定以上に冷やされ、吹出風路18に結露が発生するという問題があった。そのため、従来、背面板11の裏面に排水路12等を設けるなどの対策が取られていたが十分な効果を得られるものではなかった。   FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of a portion corresponding to FIG. 2 of the indoor unit of the conventional air conditioner shown for comparison. Conventionally, the low-temperature dew condensation water generated in the back-side heat exchanger 8 is transmitted to the back plate 11, which causes the back plate 11 to be cooled more than expected, and there is a problem that dew condensation occurs in the blowing air passage 18. . For this reason, measures such as providing a drainage channel 12 or the like on the back surface of the back plate 11 have been conventionally taken, but sufficient effects cannot be obtained.

本実施の形態においては、吸込風路17の一部が延長されて背面板11の裏面まで延びる延長風路21が形成されており、この延長風路21は、背面板11の裏面を含めて形成され、この延長風路21によって熱交換器(前面側熱交換器3、背面側熱交換器8)を通過する前の暖気が背面板11の裏面に導かれ、この導かれた暖気が背面板11の裏面に接触するので、背面板11が冷やされ過ぎることがなく吹出風路18に結露が発生することが抑制される。   In the present embodiment, a part of the suction air passage 17 is extended to form an extended air passage 21 that extends to the back surface of the back plate 11, and this extended air passage 21 includes the back surface of the back plate 11. The warm air before passing through the heat exchangers (the front side heat exchanger 3 and the back side heat exchanger 8) is guided to the back surface of the back plate 11 by the extended air passage 21, and the guided warm air is Since it contacts the back surface of the face plate 11, it is suppressed that the back plate 11 is not cooled too much and the dew condensation is generated in the blowing air passage 18.

実施の形態2.
図4は、この発明の実施の形態2にかかる空気調和装置の室内機の断面図である。本実施の形態においては、実施の形態1の延長風路21に替えて、外気(室内機の本体箱体1の外部の空気)の熱を背面板11に伝達する外気導入凹部22が設けられている。外気導入凹部22は、本体箱体1の裏面壁面1bが本体箱体1の内部側に深く断面V字状に後退する(凹む)ことで形成されている。外気導入凹部22は、背面板11の裏面を含めて形成され、本体箱体外部空間と連通し、外気を背面板11の裏面11aに直接接触させる。すなわち、外気導入凹部22は、外気の熱を背面板11に伝達する熱伝達手段を構成している。本実施の形態においては、通常、背面側熱交換器8に発生する結露水よりも温度の高い外気が、背面板11の裏面11aに直接接触するので、背面板11が暖められ、冷やされ過ぎることがなく吹出風路18に結露が発生しない。
Embodiment 2. FIG.
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the indoor unit of the air-conditioning apparatus according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. In the present embodiment, in place of the extended air passage 21 of the first embodiment, an outside air introduction recess 22 that transmits heat of outside air (air outside the main body box 1 of the indoor unit) to the back plate 11 is provided. ing. The outside air introduction recess 22 is formed by the back wall 1b of the main body box 1 being deeply recessed (recessed) into a V-shaped cross section on the inner side of the main body box 1. The outside air introduction recess 22 is formed including the back surface of the back plate 11, communicates with the main body box external space, and directly contacts the outside air with the back surface 11 a of the back plate 11. That is, the outside air introduction recess 22 constitutes a heat transfer means for transferring the heat of outside air to the back plate 11. In the present embodiment, the outside air having a temperature higher than the dew condensation water generated in the back side heat exchanger 8 is usually in direct contact with the back surface 11a of the back plate 11, so that the back plate 11 is warmed and cooled too much. There is no condensation and no condensation occurs in the blowout air passage 18.

実施の形態3.
図5−1は、この発明の実施の形態3にかかる空気調和装置の室内機の拡大断面図である。本実施の形態においては、背面板11の熱伝導性を向上させる目的で、背面板11の裏面(外側)に、熱伝導性促進部材として金属板23Aが貼着されている。詳細には、金属板23Aは、背面板11に本体箱体1の裏面壁面1aが接合した部分の角部の外側に、両主面にかかるように折れて貼着されている。金属板23Aの材料は、例えば銅などの熱伝導性に優れた材料でなり、外気に接触れるよう少なくとも一部が本体箱体1の外気に露呈するので、外気の熱を良く吸収して背面板11に伝達する。これにより、吹出風路18の結露発生が緩和される。なお、金属板23Aを本体箱体1の外気に露呈する部分と背面板11との間に架け渡すように設けることにより、外気の熱を背面板11に伝達することができ効果的である。
Embodiment 3 FIG.
FIGS. 5-1 is an expanded sectional view of the indoor unit of the air conditioning apparatus concerning Embodiment 3 of this invention. FIGS. In the present embodiment, for the purpose of improving the thermal conductivity of the back plate 11, a metal plate 23A is attached to the back surface (outside) of the back plate 11 as a thermal conductivity promoting member. Specifically, the metal plate 23 </ b> A is folded and attached to the outer side of the corner portion where the back surface wall 1 a of the main body box 1 is joined to the back plate 11 so as to cover both main surfaces. The material of the metal plate 23A is, for example, a material having excellent thermal conductivity such as copper, and at least a part thereof is exposed to the outside air of the main body box 1 so as to be in contact with the outside air. It is transmitted to the face plate 11. Thereby, the dew condensation generation | occurrence | production of the blowing wind path 18 is relieved. In addition, by providing the metal plate 23A so as to be bridged between the portion exposed to the outside air of the main body box 1 and the back plate 11, heat of the outside air can be transmitted to the back plate 11, which is effective.

図5−2は、この発明の実施の形態3の第1の変形例を示す拡大断面図である。この例では、熱伝導性促進部材である金属板23Bは、背面板11の内面(吹出風路18側)11bに貼着されている。このような構成の金属板23Bにおいては、背面板11の伝熱能力を向上させるので、背面板11の一部において、極端に温度が下がってしまうことが緩和され、吹出風路18の結露発生が抑制される。なお、金属板23Bは、背面板11の比較的温度が下がらない部分(裏面が外気に接触する部分)と、背面側熱交換器8に発生する結露水により温度が低くなる部分とを跨ぐように配設されると効果的である。   FIG. 5-2 is an enlarged sectional view showing a first modification of the third embodiment of the present invention. In this example, the metal plate 23 </ b> B, which is a thermal conductivity promoting member, is attached to the inner surface (blow air passage 18 side) 11 b of the back plate 11. In the metal plate 23 </ b> B having such a configuration, the heat transfer capability of the back plate 11 is improved, so that the temperature of the back plate 11 is partly reduced and the condensation of the blowout air path 18 is reduced. Is suppressed. Note that the metal plate 23B straddles the portion of the back plate 11 where the temperature is not lowered (the portion where the back surface is in contact with the outside air) and the portion where the temperature is lowered by the condensed water generated in the back side heat exchanger 8. It is effective if it is disposed.

図5−3は、この発明の実施の形態3の第2の変形例を示す拡大断面図である。熱伝導性促進部材である金属板23Cは、背面板11の内部に埋めこまれて配設されている。このような構成の金属板23Cにおいても、図5−2のものと概略同様な効果が得られる他、金属板23Cが背面板11の内部に埋めこまれて配設されているので、腐食しづらく耐久性が向上する。   FIG. 5-3 is an enlarged cross-sectional view showing a second modification of Embodiment 3 of the present invention. The metal plate 23 </ b> C that is a thermal conductivity promoting member is embedded in the back plate 11 and disposed. In the metal plate 23C having such a configuration, effects similar to those of FIG. 5-2 can be obtained, and the metal plate 23C is embedded in the back plate 11 and thus corroded. Durability is improved.
