Abstract

PURPOSE:To make warm air reach men's feet upon a heating operation of an air conditioner provided on a wall surface by a method wherein the warm air blown from the blow-off port of the air conditioner is blown from the blow- off port provided on the underside of the table of a stand through a duct toward the floor surface (men's feet). CONSTITUTION:The warm-air is blown from the blow-off port 11 of the warm air at the air conditioner main body 1 and is flowed to an induction duct 6-1, 6-2, thereafter, it enters into an aerial reservoir chamber of the table 8 through a leg section from the lower part of the stand main body 8 while the warm air is blown from the blow-off port 8-1 of the table lower surface toward the floor surface 3. As a result, the warm air blown is contacted directly to the feet of a occupant 5 sitting near the stand, therefore, the lower part from a waist of the occupant 5 may be warmed enough.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention efficiently distributes warm air to the feet of a room equipped with air conditioning (hereinafter simply referred to as air conditioning) equipment having a hot air outlet, etc. This relates to an air conditioning stand for supplying air conditioning.

(Prior Art) In recent years, air conditioners that can switch between air conditioning and heating have come into widespread use in general households.

Furthermore, office rooms such as offices or reception rooms of companies and the like have traditionally been equipped with equipment for uniformly air-conditioning the entire room. These air conditioners or air conditioning equipment are often installed on the upper part of the wall inside the room.

Figure No. 2 shows an indoor air conditioner installed at the top of two walls.In conventional equipment of this kind, the bottom of the air conditioner body 1 is diagonally directed toward the indoor floor 3. A conditioned air outlet 1-1 is provided, and air for heating and cooling is blown out from this Suita outlet 1-1.

By the way, when this air-conditioned air is blown out, it is a matter of course when it is cold air, and when it is warm air, as shown by arrow F in the figure, the warm air flows once towards the floor 3, but immediately rises. Furthermore, this flow F is often obstructed by furniture such as a table 4 on the floor 3 and does not reach the feet of the resident 5 in many cases.

Therefore, it is difficult for resident 5 to stay warm from the waist down.
It was having a negative impact on my physical health.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) The present invention solves the problem that with these conventional wall-mounted air conditioners, it is difficult for warm air to reach the feet, especially during heating operation. This is what I am trying to do.

(Means for Solving the Problems) Therefore, the present invention provides a stand for a table or the like installed on the floor, which is connected to an air-conditioned air outlet of an air-conditioning equipment installed indoors through a detachable duct. This is a means for solving the above-mentioned problem by having an outlet that blows out the conditioned air guided through the duct downward toward the floor surface of the room.

(Function) Warm air blown from the air conditioner outlet of the air conditioning equipment is guided into the stand through the duct, and is blown out from the outlet at the bottom of the table of the stand toward the floor (feet).

(Example) Below, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
Figures 1 and 2 each show an embodiment of the present invention. The embodiment in Figure 1 is an example in which an air conditioner is installed independently on a wall, and Figure 2 shows an example in which a single outdoor unit is installed in an air conditioner. This is an example of equipment installed in air conditioning equipment that attempts to air condition indoors through a duct that runs through the wall, and the same reference numerals in the figure indicate the same objects.

Here, the explanation will be centered on FIG. 1.

Reference numeral 1 denotes an air conditioner main body, the air conditioner main body 1 is installed on the upper wall surface of the room, and a conditioned air outlet 1-1 is provided diagonally in the lower front of the air conditioner main body 1. Warm air is blown out. In the figure, the arrow indicated by F indicates the direction of airflow.

Reference numeral 6-1 denotes a duct for introducing air-conditioned air, which is provided hanging down along the wall surface with its opening facing the outlet 1-1, and its lower end is connected to the air-conditioning air duct arranged along the floor surface 3. It is connected to the introduction duct 6-2. 7 is a stand main body having a table 8 having a gas storage chamber formed in the upper part; in the illustrated embodiment, the legs of the stand main body 7 are formed hollow, and the upper ends of the legs are connected to the gas storage chamber of the table 8. It is connected so that it communicates with the inside of the storage chamber. Further, a hollow chamber having an appropriate shape is formed at the lower end of the leg so that it can be installed and fixed on the floor surface 8, and this hollow chamber is connected to the air-conditioned air introduction duct 6-2.
connected to. Further, on the lower surface of the table 8, a conditioned air outlet 8-1 communicating with the gas storage chamber is provided.

The embodiment shown in FIG. 2 differs from the embodiment shown in FIG. Other than that, there is no difference from the above-mentioned embodiment.

According to each of the embodiments configured in this manner, warm air is blown out from the warm air outlet 1.9 of the air conditioner body 1 or the wall duct, flows to the introduction duct 6-1, 6-2, and is discharged from the stand body 7. The gas enters the gas storage chamber of the table 8 from the lower part through the legs, and is blown out onto the floor 3 from the air outlet 8-1 on the underside of the table. As a result, the warm air blown out directly hits the feet of the occupant 5 sitting near the stand, and the area below the waist of the occupant 5 is sufficiently warmed.

If you want to further increase the blowout of warm air, use the third
As shown in the figure, a booster 10 such as a fan may be installed in the hollow part of the leg.

Note that the air conditioning stand according to the present invention is designed to suit the comfort of the room, for example, if the air conditioning stand 7 is designed to look like furniture, its interest will be further increased.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above in detail, when equipped with the air conditioning stand of the present invention, it becomes possible to sufficiently and efficiently deliver warm air to the feet of the occupants, eliminating discomfort of the occupants and improving health. is also good. Furthermore, if the air conditioning stand according to the present invention is designed so that the introduction duct can be attached and removed by appropriate means, the air conditioner or air conditioning equipment can be used in a normal state during the summer. Further, the air conditioning stand according to the present invention can be easily constructed and can be directly installed in an existing air conditioner.
