The second connecting member 27 is fixed to the side ends of the first and second heat exchangers 21 and 22 to be fixed to the main body 10 while the two heat exchangers 21 and 22 are connected, or the second heat exchanger It may be coupled to only the (22) side such that only the second heat exchanger 22 is fixed to the main body 10. When the second connection member 27 fixes only the second heat exchanger 22, the first heat exchanger 21 is fixed to the main body 10 by a separate fixing means (not shown). The second connecting member 27 shown in FIG. 3 shows only a case of fixing only the second heat exchanger 22, but the second connecting member 27 may be changed in various forms according to the design of the device.

커버부재(30)는 도 3과 도 4에 도시한 바와 같이, 두 열교환기(21,22) 사이의 틈(28)을 덮는 커버부(31), 커버부(31)의 일측으로부터 하방으로 연장되어 제1열교환기의 단부에 걸리는 제1걸림부(32), 커버부(31)의 타측으로부터 하방으로 연장되어 제2열교환기(22)의 단부에 걸리는 제2걸림부(33)를 포함한다.3 and 4, the cover member 30 extends downwardly from one side of the cover portion 31 and the cover portion 31 covering the gap 28 between the two heat exchangers 21 and 22. As shown in FIG. And a first catching part 32 which is caught by an end of the first heat exchanger, and a second catching part 33 which extends downward from the other side of the cover part 31 and is caught by an end of the second heat exchanger 22. .

커버부(31)는 제1 및 제2열교환기(21,22)의 횡방향길이와 대응하는 길이를 구비하고, 제1 및 제2열교환기(21,22) 사이의 틈보다 큰 폭을 구비한다. 따라서 커버부(31)는 두 열교환기(21,22) 사이의 틈(28)을 덮어 공기의 유통을 차단할 수 있다.The cover portion 31 has a length corresponding to the transverse lengths of the first and second heat exchangers 21 and 22 and has a width larger than the gap between the first and second heat exchangers 21 and 22. do. Therefore, the cover part 31 may cover the gap 28 between the two heat exchangers 21 and 22 to block the flow of air.

제1걸림부(32)는 커버부(31)의 일측으로부터 하방으로 연장되며 하단에 탄성변형이 가능한 'V'형 절곡부(34)를 구비한다. 이 'V'형 절곡부(34)는 자유단이 제1열교환기(21)의 단부에 걸릴 수 있도록 제1열교환기(21)를 향한다. 제2걸림부(33)는 커버부(31)의 타측으로부터 하방으로 연장되며 하단에 탄성변형이 가능한 'V'형 절곡부(35)를 구비한다. 제2걸림부(33)의 'V'형 절곡부(35)는 제2열교환기(22)의 단부에 걸릴 수 있도록 자유단이 제2열교환기(22)를 향한다. 이러한 커버부재(30)는 수지재의 사출성형 또는 금속판재의 절곡성형을 통하여 커버부(31), 제1걸림부(32), 제2걸림부(33)가 일체로 형성되는 것이 바람직하다.The first catching portion 32 extends downward from one side of the cover portion 31 and includes a 'V'-type bent portion 34 capable of elastic deformation at a lower end thereof. This 'V' type bend 34 is directed towards the first heat exchanger 21 so that the free end can be caught at the end of the first heat exchanger 21. The second catching part 33 extends downward from the other side of the cover part 31 and has a 'V' type bending part 35 capable of elastic deformation at the lower end thereof. The 'V' type bent part 35 of the second catching part 33 has a free end facing the second heat exchanger 22 so as to be caught by an end of the second heat exchanger 22. The cover member 30 is preferably formed integrally with the cover portion 31, the first locking portion 32, the second locking portion 33 through injection molding of the resin material or bending molding of the metal plate material.

이러한 커버부재(30)를 제1 및 제2열교환기(21,22)의 상부에 장착할 때는 도 4에 도시한 바와 같이, 커버부재(30)를 두 열교환기(21,22) 사이의 틈(28) 상부에 위치시킨 상태에서 하방으로 눌러 준다. 이렇게 하면, 제1 및 제2걸림부(32,33)의 'V'형 절곡부들(34,35)이 탄성변형 되면서 두 열교환기(21,22) 사이의 틈(28)으로 진입한다. 진입이 완료된 후에는 다시 탄성에 의해 복원되면서 양측의 V'형 절곡부(34,35)가 제1 및 제2열교환기(21,22)의 단부에 걸린다. 따라서 커버부재(30)의 장착이 완료된 후에는 제1 및 제2걸림부(32,33)의 'V'형 절곡부들(34,35)에 의해 걸림이 유지되므로 커버부재(30)의 이탈이 방지된다. 이처럼 본 발명의 커버부재(30)는 고정나사 등을 체결하지 않고 단지 상부로부터 하방으로 가압하는 동작만으로도 커버부재(30)를 장착할 수 있으므로 종래보다 손쉽게 장착할 수 있다.When the cover member 30 is mounted on the first and second heat exchangers 21 and 22, the gap between the heat exchangers 21 and 22 between the two heat exchangers 21 and 22 is illustrated in FIG. 4. (28) Press down on the upper position. In this way, the 'V' bent portions 34 and 35 of the first and second catching portions 32 and 33 are elastically deformed and enter the gap 28 between the two heat exchangers 21 and 22. After the entry is completed, the V'-shaped bent portions 34 and 35 on both sides are caught by the ends of the first and second heat exchangers 21 and 22 while being restored by elasticity again. Therefore, after the mounting of the cover member 30 is completed, the locking is maintained by the 'V'-type bent portions 34 and 35 of the first and second locking portions 32 and 33, so that the detachment of the cover member 30 is prevented. Is prevented. As described above, the cover member 30 of the present invention can be easily mounted since the cover member 30 can be mounted only by pressing downward from the top without fastening the fixing screw.

또 본 발명의 열교환유닛(20)은 도 5에 도시한 바와 같이, 제1연결부재(26)에 형성된 제1걸림돌기(41)와, 제2연결부재(27)에 형성된 제2걸림돌기(42)를 포함한다. 이들 걸림돌기(41,42)는 커버부재(30)의 양단을 결속함으로써 커버부재(30)가 두 열교환기(21,22)의 상부에 더욱 견고히 고정될 수 있도록 한다.In addition, the heat exchange unit 20 of the present invention, as shown in Figure 5, the first engaging projection 41 formed in the first connecting member 26, and the second engaging projection formed in the second connecting member 27 ( 42). These locking projections 41 and 42 bind both ends of the cover member 30 so that the cover member 30 can be more firmly fixed to the upper portions of the two heat exchangers 21 and 22.

제1걸림돌기(41)는 도 6에 도시한 바와 같이, 제1연결부재(26)의 내면으로부터 제2연결부재(27) 방향으로 돌출한다. 제1걸림돌기(41)는 제1연결부재(26)와 일체로 형성된다. 제2걸림돌기(42)는 도 7에 도시한 바와 같이, 제2연결부재(27)의 상단으로부터 상방으로 연장된 형태이며, 소성변형을 위한 절곡홈(42a)을 구비한다.As shown in FIG. 6, the first catching protrusion 41 protrudes from the inner surface of the first connecting member 26 toward the second connecting member 27. The first catching protrusion 41 is integrally formed with the first connecting member 26. As shown in FIG. 7, the second locking protrusion 42 extends upward from the upper end of the second connection member 27 and includes a bending groove 42a for plastic deformation.

따라서 커버부재(30)를 장착할 때는 도 6에 도시한 바와 같이, 먼저 커버부재(30)의 제1걸림돌기(41) 쪽 단부를 하방으로 가압하여 두 열교환기(21,22) 사이로 진입시킨 후 제1걸림돌기(41) 방향으로 약간 밀어 준다. 이렇게 하면, 커버부(31)의 상면이 제1걸림돌기(41)에 의해 걸린다. 이 상태에서 커버부재(30)의 반대편을 하방으로 가압하여 커버부재(30)가 완전히 장착되도록 한다. 그리고 최종적으로 도 7에 도시한 바와 같이, 제2걸림돌기(42)를 절곡시켜 커버부(31) 상면이 제2걸림돌기(42)에 걸리도록 한다.Therefore, when the cover member 30 is mounted, as shown in FIG. 6, first, the end portion of the first catching protrusion 41 of the cover member 30 is pressed downward to enter between the two heat exchangers 21 and 22. After slightly pushing in the direction of the first locking projection (41). In this way, the upper surface of the cover part 31 is caught by the first locking projection 41. In this state, the opposite side of the cover member 30 is pressed downward so that the cover member 30 is completely mounted. Finally, as shown in FIG. 7, the second locking protrusion 42 is bent so that the upper surface of the cover portion 31 is caught by the second locking protrusion 42.

이상에서 상세히 설명한 바와 같이, 본 발명에 따른 공기조화기는 커버부재를 설치할 때 고정나사 등을 체결하지 않고 단지 커버부재를 상부로부터 가압하는 동작만으로도 장착할 수 있기 때문에 커버부재를 종래보다 용이하게 설치할 수 있는 효과가 있다.As described in detail above, the air conditioner according to the present invention can be installed by simply pressing the cover member from the top without fastening the fixing screw or the like when installing the cover member, so that the cover member can be easily installed. It has an effect.

또 본 발명은 커버부재를 장착할 때 제1 및 제2걸림부의 'V'형 절곡부가 탄성 변형되면서 제1 및 제2열교환기의 단부에 걸리기 때문에 커버부재의 이탈을 방지할 수 있는 효과가 있다.In addition, the present invention has the effect of preventing the cover member from being detached because the 'V' bent portion of the first and second catching parts is caught by the ends of the first and second heat exchangers while being elastically deformed when the cover member is mounted. .

또 본 발명은 제1연결부재에 형성된 제1걸림돌기와 제2연결부재에 형성된 제2걸림돌기를 이용하여 커버부재의 양단을 결속할 수 있기 때문에 커버부재를 견고히 결속할 수 있는 효과가 있다.In addition, the present invention has the effect that can be firmly coupled to the cover member because both ends of the cover member can be bound by using the first locking projection formed on the first connecting member and the second locking projection formed on the second connecting member.
