  • Patent number: 8356659
    Abstract: An air conditioner is disposed with a casing, a filter, an indoor heat exchanger, a blower, and a blowout passage. The casing includes a suction opening and a blowout opening. The filter is disposed downstream of the suction opening and transmits air. The indoor heat exchanger is disposed facing the filter downstream of the filter and performs heat exchange with air that passes through the indoor heat exchanger. The blower is disposed downstream of the indoor heat exchanger and generates a flow of air that is sucked in from the suction opening and is blown out from the blowout opening. The blowout passage includes an air introduction opening disposed facing and downstream of the indoor heat exchanger and guides air from the air introduction opening to the blowout opening. Additionally, the filter has an outer shape that is slanted with respect to the indoor heat exchanger.

  • Publication number: 20090229289
    Abstract: An indoor unit of an air conditioner includes an indoor heat exchanger, a body, a centrifugal fan, and a shutter. A plurality of discharge passages for discharging air that has passed through the indoor heat exchanger is formed in the body. The centrifugal fan generates a flow of air that passes through the indoor heat exchanger and is blown out of the discharge passages. The shutter is provided to at least one discharge passage of the plurality of discharge passages. The shutter is kept in a closed state by the pressure of the air flow.
