Abstract: An indoor unit of an air-conditioning apparatus eliminates a possibility of condensation on a front panel without deteriorating a quality of design. In an off state, an auxiliary air-directing plate is positioned above an up-down air-directing plate inside an air outlet such that a free end of the auxiliary air-directing plate opposite from one end of the auxiliary air-directing plate fixed to a rotating shaft is positioned closer to a rear surface of a casing than is the rotating shaft. In an on state, the auxiliary air-directing plate is rotated in a direction from the rear surface to a front surface of the casing, and the free end is protruded from the air outlet to an outside of the casing.

Abstract: An indoor unit for an air-conditioning apparatus includes a box-shaped casing having an air inlet in a top surface of the casing and an air outlet in a bottom surface of the casing, an air-sending device disposed in the casing and configured to suck in indoor air through the air inlet and blow conditioned air through the air outlet, a heat exchanger disposed in the casing and configured to cause the indoor air to exchange heat with refrigerant to supply the conditioned air, a vertical deflector, a first auxiliary vertical deflector, and a second auxiliary vertical deflector each rotatably arranged in the air outlet and configured to change an air flow direction in a vertical direction.

Abstract: Provided is an outdoor unit, including: a main body including a front panel; a top panel covering a top surface of the main body; and an air outlet grille mounted to the front panel. The top panel includes a bending piece portion formed along a periphery of the top panel. The air outlet grille includes a fixing piece portion formed along an edge of the air outlet grille. The air outlet grille is mounted so that the fixing piece portion of the air outlet grille is sandwiched between the front panel and the bending piece portion.

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: A coating composition including ultrafine silica particles having an average particle diameter of 15 nm or less and fluororesin particles, in which ultrafine silica particle content is 0.1 to 5 mass %, and the mass ratio of the ultrafine silica particles to the fluororesin particles is 70:30 to 95:5. According to the coating composition, there is provided a coating film which makes it possible to readily coat the surfaces of various articles without impairing the color tone and the texture and which is excellent in antisoiling performance and durability.

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 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: The invention relates to a separation-type air conditioner capable of increasing the heat exchanging area of a compact indoor unit and of effecting high-performance heat exchange, and particularly employable as a high-performance yet compact indoor unit whose height is low. A front heat exchanger having a configuration in which an upper edge portion and a lower edge portion are respectively made to recede is disposed in an indoor unit. In addition, a rear heat exchanger separate from the front heat exchanger is disposed on the rear surface side of the front heat exchanger. Consequently, it is possible to increase the heat exchanging area in an indoor unit having the same height, and improve the heat exchanging capacity.
