Description

本発明は、空気調和機の室内ユニットに関するものである。   The present invention relates to an indoor unit of an air conditioner.

従来の空気調和機の室内ユニットについて、図１１、１２を参照しながら説明する。   A conventional indoor unit of an air conditioner will be described with reference to FIGS.

従来の空気調和機の室内ユニット１は、図１１、１２に示すように、台枠１ａと、前面枠２と前面パネル３を組み合わせて外郭を構成するとともに、前面パネル３には、光で運転状態を表示する表示部１４を備えている。前面パネル３には、光を通す開口部１５と、飾り台１６を固定するための引っ掛け部１７が設けられ、飾り台１６には、前面パネル３の引っ掛け部１７に相対する位置に爪部１８を設け固定し、表示部１４を構成している（例えば、特許文献１参照）。
特開２０００−１９３２６８号公報 As shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, a conventional indoor unit 1 of an air conditioner is configured by combining a base frame 1a, a front frame 2 and a front panel 3, and the front panel 3 is operated by light. A display unit 14 for displaying the status is provided. The front panel 3 is provided with an opening 15 through which light passes and a hooking portion 17 for fixing the decoration stand 16. The claw portion 18 is provided on the decoration stand 16 at a position facing the hooking portion 17 of the front panel 3. The display unit 14 is configured (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
JP 2000-193268 A

しかしながら、前記従来の空気調和機の室内ユニットの構成では、長い範囲で表示部１４内の発光素子（図示せず）を移動させる場合、前面パネル３の開口部１５の範囲も長くせねばならず、前記前面パネル３の開口部１５に飾り台１６を爪固定するだけでは、前記前面パネル３や前記飾り台１６のたわみによって、爪固定部がはずれやすいといった課題を有していた。また、前記前面パネル３の開口部１５につなぎ形状を設けたとしても、その部分が光を通さずデザイン性を損ねるといった課題を有していた。   However, in the configuration of the indoor unit of the conventional air conditioner, when the light emitting element (not shown) in the display unit 14 is moved in a long range, the range of the opening 15 of the front panel 3 must be long. The problem that the nail fixing part is easily detached due to the deflection of the front panel 3 or the decoration table 16 is obtained simply by fixing the decoration table 16 to the opening 15 of the front panel 3. Further, even if the opening 15 of the front panel 3 is provided with a connecting shape, there is a problem that the portion does not transmit light and the design is impaired.

本発明は、前記従来の課題を解決するもので、安価な構成で、長範囲で発光素子の移動ができる表示構成とし、デザイン性に優れた空気調和機の室内ユニットを提供することを目的とする。   An object of the present invention is to solve the above-described conventional problems, and to provide an indoor unit of an air conditioner that has a low-cost configuration, a display configuration in which a light emitting element can be moved in a long range, and is excellent in design.
