Abstract: By avoiding the problem that in a hybrid optical disc, an optical pickup suitable for a standard-density recording area cannot operate as desired in a high-density recording area, damage to the disc drive or optical disc is prevented and optimal control is enabled. Access operation identification information such as reproducing identification information indicating whether or not information recorded in the user data area of the optical disc can be reproduced under the reproducing conditions of the optical disc driving apparatus is recorded in the lead-in area. The optical disc driving apparatus reads this type of access operation identification information, compares it with access operation identification information possessed by the optical disc driving apparatus, and if they do not correspond, does not carry out access operations by the optical head to the user data area, because reproducing or recording compatibility with the optical disc is lacking.

Abstract: An indoor unit includes a heat exchanger provided on the downstream side of a fan and formed with a plurality of lower end portions in a vertical cross section from the front side to the back side of a casing, a plurality of drain pans provided below the lower end portions of the heat exchanger and configured to collect drain water occurring on the heat exchanger, and a drain channel provided between the drain pans and configured to be a flow channel of the drain, and a connecting port to which a drain hose configured to drain the drain water collected by the drain pans to the outside of the casing, and one of the drain pans is arranged to a level equal to or higher than the level of the other drain pan, and the drain channel is provided on the drain pan arranged on the back side of the casing.

Abstract: An indoor unit includes a casing having a suction port formed on an upper portion and a blow-out port on a lower side of a front surface portion, an axial-flow or mixed-flow fan provided on the downstream side of the suction port in the casing, and a heat exchanger provided in the casing at a position on the downstream side of the fan and on the upstream side of the blow-out port. The heat exchanger includes a plurality of fins arranged side by side with predetermined gaps therebetween and a plurality of heat-transfer tubes penetrating through the plurality of fins. The heat exchanger is configured in such a manner that the air-flow resistance of an area facing the outer peripheral side of the fan is larger than the air-flow resistance of an area facing a center portion of the fan.

Abstract: An indoor unit includes: a casing formed with a suction port and a blow-out port; a plurality of fans provided in parallel in the casing; a heat exchanger provided on the downstream side of the fans and on the upstream side of the blow-out port; a horizontal wind direction control vane provided at the blow-out port to control the horizontal direction of an airflow blown out from the blow-out port; a vertical wind direction control vane provided at the blow-out port to control the vertical direction of the airflow blown out from the blow-out port; and an infrared ray human detection sensor configured to detect the position of a person present in a room, and air volumes, the orientation of the horizontal wind direction control vane, and the orientation of the vertical wind direction control vane of the fans are each controlled according to results of detection by the infrared ray sensor.

Abstract: An indoor unit includes a casing having a suction port formed in an upper part and a blow-out port formed on a lower side at a front face part, an axial-flow or diagonal-flow fan provided on the downstream side of the suction port in the casing, and a heat exchanger provided on the downstream side of the fan and on the upstream side of the blow-out port in the casing, in which air blown out of the fan and refrigerant are heat-exchanged.

Abstract: By avoiding the problem that in a hybrid optical disc with a standard-density recording area and a high-density recording area, an optical pickup designed to be suitable for the standard-density recording area cannot operate as desired in the high-density recording area and may cause a malfunction, damage to the disc drive or optical disc is prevented and optimal control is enabled. Access operation identification information such as reproducing identification information 225 indicating whether or not information recorded in the user data area 222 of the optical disc can be reproduced under the reproducing conditions of the optical disc driving apparatus is recorded in the lead-in area 222.
