In an air flow control device for an air conditioner including a heat exchanger arranged so as to face an inlet port, and upper and lower air-blowing fans disposed in upper and lower outlet ports, respectively, wherein air sucked through the inlet port and the heat exchanger is directed to the fans, there are further provided input producing means for outputting a condition required for the outlet air from the outlet ports and phenomenon information on the outlet air, upper and lower fan operation mode determining means for determining the operation modes depending on the output signals from the input producing means, upper and lower fan operation mode control means for controlling the operation of both fans at the operation mode according to the commands from the operation mode determining means, and control means for optimizing the outlet air to a user.

Air flow control device for an air conditioner

An air flow control device for an air conditioner increases the revolution of a fan motor to the revolution wherein the short cycle does not occur, or change the direction of an air directing plate to a preset angle wherein the short cycle does not occur when information corresponding to the short cycle is detected based on the air flowing direction from the outlet port or an intake air temperature. As a result, the short cycle can be prevented, and effective heat exchanger and effective air conditioning wherein temperature distribution in a room to be air-conditioned is not deteriotated are obtained.

An air flow control device for an air conditioner includes a compressor, an outdoor side heat exchanger, expansion means and a room side heat exchanger in sequence, wherein the improvement comprises a room side unit with a upper and lower outlet ports, having the room side heat exchanger therein, upper and lower air-blowing fans disposed in the room side unit so as to face the upper and lower outlet ports, respectively, controller for controlling the operations of the air-blowing fans, a covering member positioned at least one of the outlet ports so as to open and close the corresponding outlet port, and a driving device for controlling the opening and closing operations of the covering member.
