Problems solved by technology

For example, consider the structure that protrudes to the outside of the indoor unit, but in this case, it will be very unsightly, and it may hit the outside furniture and curtain rails, etc.
[0009] In addition, although it is also conceivable to wind the filter on the upper and lower parts, in this case, the size of the wound part becomes larger, leading to an increase in the size of the main unit
[0010] Furthermore, even if you move left and right instead of up and down, the same problem exists

Abstract

The present invention relates to an air conditioner. The indoor unit of the air conditioner is equipped with a heat exchanger and a fan blowing the air exchanged by the heat exchanger into the room in the main unit. In the air channel of the air port, a filter, a heat exchanger, and a blower fan are respectively installed, and at the same time, a dust collection part for removing and collecting dust on the filter is installed on the main unit. Also, the filter is divided into a plurality of parts in the moving direction, and each filter can reciprocate to pass through the dust collection part.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an air conditioner, which has the function of automatically cleaning the air filter provided at the air suction port of the indoor unit. Background technique [0002] For the indoor unit of the existing air conditioner, the filter is pulled out from the front panel of the main unit for cleaning, and then inserted into the inner side of the front panel of the main unit. [0003] However, because the indoor unit is usually installed at a high place in the room, it is not easy for the elderly and women to disassemble and install the filter. Therefore, the work of cleaning the filter is kept at a distance. As a result, there are the following problems. The period in which comfort is not exerted becomes longer. [0004] In order to solve this problem, the proposed Figure 7 The shown air conditioner equipped with a filter cleaning device (for example, refer patent document 1). [0005] The indoor unit of this air conditioner is re...
