Abstract: Disclosed herein is an air conditioner. The air conditioner includes an outdoor unit having a compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger, and a flowpath switching valve disposed on a refrigerant flowpath between the compressor and the outdoor heat exchanger, a plurality of indoor units configured to operate in a cooling mode or in a heating mode, a mode controller configured to selectively guide refrigerant received from the outdoor unit to the plurality of indoor units. The mode controller guiding the refrigerant through one or more of: a first refrigerant pipe extending from the flowpath switching valve to the mode control unit, a second refrigerant pipe extending from the flowpath switching valve and diverging to the outdoor heat exchanger, and to the mode control unit, and a third refrigerant pipe extending from the outdoor heat exchanger to the mode controller.

Abstract: An air conditioner includes a main body, a fan configured to cause air to flow through the main body, and a water reservoir detachably disposed on an upper portion of the main body. A humidifying fabric member is disposed inside the main body and configured to receive water from the water reservoir. A water collecting tank is configured to collect water that flows down from the humidifying fabric member. In addition, a pump is configured to pump the water in the water collecting tank to the water reservoir through a suction hole. A bottom of the water collecting tank is formed to be downwardly inclined toward one portion of the bottom and the suction hole of the pump is disposed adjacent to the one portion.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an air conditioner that is designed to include a first space in which an evaporator is disposed and a second space in which a condenser is disposed and which is divided from the first space. An outdoor unit and an indoor unit are integrally formed, and thus it is easy to move the air conditioner. A structure and disposition of a heat exchanger are improved, and thus heat exchange efficiency is improved. Operations of a cooling mode and a dehumidifying mode are possible.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a humidifier and a control method of a humidifier providing with the hygienic humidification since it is possible to completely evaporate water remaining in a water tub because a humidifying element of a humidifier is disposed adjacent to the bottom of the water tub, further, since the humidifier has a structure configured to raise the humidifying element over the water surface of the water tub after the end of the humidifying operation, it is possible to provide the hygienic humidification without contamination of the humidifying element.

Abstract: An evaporative humidifier includes a main body; a reservoir provided in the main body to store water; and a humidifying element assembly rotatably provided in the main body. The humidifying element assembly includes a humidifying element which is configured to absorb water and perform humidification, and a frame to support the humidifying element, the frame including at least one guider portion which guides the water of the reservoir toward one side surface of the humidifying element.
