In an air conditioner, a drain extraction unit and a refrigerant pipe connecting unit may be disposed in a blocking region in which a discharge port is not provided so that a size of the discharge port may be secured and the discharge port may be uniformly disposed, thereby generating uniform airflow in a room. In a lower housing formed in a circular shape, some of components inside an indoor unit of the air conditioner may be disposed in a protrusion portion that protrudes from the circular housing, thereby facilitating the installation of the air conditioner. A condensate water collecting space disposed outside the housing may be provided in a drain tray, thereby efficiently preventing a leakage due to condensate water generated outside the housing. The housing, the drain tray, and the cover member of the air conditioner may be coupled by a coupling member coupled outside.

Air conditioner

An air conditioner includes a housing having a suction port and a discharge port, a main fan configured to draw air into the housing through the suction port and discharge air from the housing through the discharge port, an auxiliary fan configured to draw, into the housing, air discharged by the main fan and a controller configured to control a rotational speed of the auxiliary fan to change a direction in which air is discharged from the housing.

Air conditioner and method of controlling the same

Disclosed herein is an air conditioner. The air conditioner includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet, and having a first guide surface forming the outlet and a second guide surface facing the first guide surface provided therein, a heat exchanger configured to heat-exchange air suctioned through the inlet, a blower fan configured to suction air from the inlet, heat-exchange the air by passing air through the heat exchanger, and discharge air toward the outlet, and an airflow control unit provided to be movable between a first position adjacent to one end portion of the outlet from which air is discharged and a second position spaced apart from the end portion of the outlet from which air is discharged, and protruding from the first guide surface or the second guide surface when the airflow control unit placed at the first

Disclosed herein is an air conditioner. The air conditioner includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet, and having a first guide surface forming the outlet and a second guide surface facing the first guide surface provided therein, a heat exchanger configured to heat-exchange air suctioned through the inlet, a blower fan configured to suction air from the inlet, heat-exchange the air by passing air through the heat exchanger, and discharge air toward the outlet, and an airflow control unit provided to be movable between a first position adjacent to one end portion of the outlet from which air is discharged and a second position spaced apart from the end portion of the outlet from which air is discharged, and protruding from the first guide surface or the second guide surface when the airflow control unit placed at the first position.

An outdoor unit of an air conditioner includes a housing including an outlet, a fan disposed inside the housing, and a guide guiding air flowing by the fan, wherein the guide includes an inflow portion provided to guide air introduced into the housing to the fan and a diffuser extending from the inflow portion to guide air passing through the fan to the outlet. The inflow portion includes a duct connected to the diffuser, a bell mouth disposed on an upstream side further than the duct and configured such that a width of an inlet end of the bell mouth is wider than a width of an outlet end of the bell mouth, and a guide vane formed on the bell mouth and configured to guide air introduced into the fan.

Outdoor unit of air conditioner

Disclosed is an air conditioner to prevent deterioration of cooling or heating performance caused by re-introduction of cooling or heating air into a heat exchanger. The air conditioner includes a housing including an air discharge plate having a plurality of holes and an outlet, a heat exchanger located inside the housing, a blower fan configured to blow air heat-exchanged with the heat exchanger toward the air discharge plate or the outlet, a blade rotating between a guide position to guide a direction of air blown from the blower fan and discharged through the outlet and a closing position to close the outlet, wherein the blade includes a first blade and a second blade spaced apart from the first blade and configured to guide air blown from the blower fan toward the air discharge plate when the first blade is located at the closing position.

Disclosed herein is a air conditioner. The air conditioner a housing including a suction port and a discharge port, a heat exchanger provided inside the housing, a blower fan configured to suction air through the suction port, pass and heat-exchange the air through the heat exchanger, and then discharge the air through the discharge port, and a sub-flow path that suctions and guides some air around the discharge port using a suction force of the blower fan to control the flowing direction of the air discharged from the discharge port.

Disclosed is an air conditioner (AC) indoor unit including a housing installed on the ceiling and having an inlet and an outlet provided around the inlet and having a pair of straight sections facing each other and a pair of curved sections facing each other; a heat exchanger provided inside the housing and arranged in a main flow path between the inlet and the outlet; a blower fan configured to suck in air through the inlet, allow the air to exchange heat with the heat exchanger, and discharge the air through the outlet; and an auxiliary flow path guiding an auxiliary air current to change a direction of an air current discharged from the outlet. The direction of the discharged air current may be controlled by sucking in air around the outlet or blowing air to the periphery of the outlet through the auxiliary flow path without a blade.
