Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, the conventional air filter requires regular maintenance by removing the air filter from the indoor unit according to the frequency of use of the air conditioner, washing or sweeping, etc., to remove the attached dust, especially for the form buried on the ceiling. Requires a lot of man-hours and labor
In addition, if regular maintenance is not performed, dust will accumulate on the air filter, increase the ventilation resistance of the sucked air, reduce the performance of the air conditioner, and increase power consumption.
[0007] In addition, there are problems with complex structures

Abstract

A rotatable disc-like air filter is provided between a suction opening formed in a housing and a heat exchanger. The air filter is automatically cleaned by providing air filter-driving means for rotating the air filter and a suction unit, provided opposite the air filter, to which a suction nozzle for sucking dust adhered to the filter is installed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an air conditioner having a function of automatically cleaning an air filter provided on an air inlet of an indoor unit (unit). Background technique [0002] Figure 9 The indoor unit of the conventional air conditioner uses the heat exchanger 9 to exchange heat between the air and the refrigerant. However, in order to prevent the dust contained in the sucked air from entering the interior of the indoor unit, an air filter is installed to achieve regular cleaning and adhesion. The air filter has a detachable structure for convenience when dust is collected. [0003] In addition, as the air filter device of the indoor unit that is easy to clean the air filter, there are known devices that have a suction unit that is used to remove dust and move across a wide range, or devices that have a belt-shaped filter (such as , refer to Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2). [0004] Patent Document 1: Japanese Unexamined Patent ...
