An AC electric motor drive system includes a power supply transformer connected to an AC power supply and insulating an AC power supply side and a load side; an AC electric motor; a power converter which converts AC voltage outputted from the power supply transformer to output AC voltage, and which outputs the output AC voltage to the AC electric motor; and a capacitive component having one end connected to the load side of the power supply transformer, and another end grounded.

AC electric motor drive system

An air-conditioning apparatus includes a heat-source detection unit provided at the front of a housing. The heat-source detection unit includes an infrared sensor that detects a heat source in an air-conditioned space and a supporting member that supports the infrared sensor. The supporting member is rotated about an axis that extends in a vertical direction. Part of the infrared sensor that corresponds to the field of view thereof is exposed when the infrared sensor faces the air-conditioned space, and the part of the infrared sensor is concealed when the infrared sensor does not face the air-conditioned space.

Air-conditioning apparatus

An indoor unit for an air-conditioning apparatus includes a cartridge provided to an air inlet so as to be freely mountable and dismountable. The cartridge accommodates a filter so as to be freely movable in a fore-and-aft direction and has an opening port formed in one end portion in the fore-and-aft direction. A dust box is provided on a side of the end portion of the cartridge. The dust box includes a cleaning mechanism configured to clean the filter and a dust collecting portion configured to collect dust.

Indoor unit for air-conditioning apparatus

A fan includes an impeller including a boss serving as a center of rotation and a plurality of blades provided on an outer circumferential surface of the boss, and a structure member installed on an upstream side of the impeller in an airflow direction. The plurality of blades each have a plurality of recesses disposed only on a side of a suction surface of a leading edge. The plurality of recesses each have a rectangular shape having two longitudinal sides. Consequently, it is possible to reduce fluctuations of lift on the plurality of blades and thereby reduce discrete frequency noise.

Fan and air-conditioning apparatus equipped with fan

An indoor unit for an air-conditioning apparatus includes a plurality of axial-flow fans arranged side by side in a horizontal direction below an air inlet. Further, the indoor unit includes a plurality of filters provided to the air inlet so as to be arranged side by side. A cleaning mechanism and a dust box are further provided to the air inlet. Further, the dust box is arranged at a position between adjacent filters and adjacent axial-flow fans.

An indoor unit for an air-conditioning apparatus includes a cartridge provided to an air inlet so as to be freely mountable and dismountable. The cartridge accommodates a filter so as to be freely movable in a right-and-left direction and has an opening port formed in one end portion in the right-and-left direction. A dust box is provided on a side of the end portion of the cartridge. The dust box includes a cleaning mechanism configured to clean the filter and a dust collecting portion configured to collect dust.

A housing cover provided on a housing section of an indoor unit of an air conditioning apparatus, the indoor unit including a casing, and the housing section provided on a bottom portion of the casing and having a remote control receiving section for receiving an infrared signal from a remote control and a temperature detection sensor for contactlessly detecting a surface temperature of an object in a room, the housing cover comprising a light transmissive surface inclined diagonally downward from a front and a sensor opening port formed behind the light transmissive surface, wherein the light transmissive surface is formed in front of the remote control receiving section to be opposed to and be parallel to the remote control receiving section, and the sensor opening port is formed such that the temperature detection sensor protrudes from the opening port.

An indoor unit of an air-conditioning apparatus includes a fan unit having an axial fan and a motor that drives the axial fan. The indoor unit also includes a pair of support arms on a back plate constituting a back surface of a casing. The fan unit is supported by the pair of support arms from the below.

Indoor unit of air-conditioning apparatus

An air-conditioning apparatus indoor unit includes: a plastic design panel that includes a front panel part having a rectangular shape in front view and a flange part projecting toward a back surface from one longitudinal edge of the front panel part; and a reinforcement member that has a shape extending in the longitudinal direction of the front panel part across a middle part of the design panel and is fixed to the design panel so as to be in contact with a back surface of the front panel part and an inner surface of the flange part.

Air-conditioning apparatus indoor unit

An indoor unit for an air-conditioning apparatus: a display panel arranged on a front surface side; a display device, which includes a light-emitting device that is allowed to control turning on and turning off, and is arranged so as to be opposed to a back surface of the display panel; and an icon, which is formed on a surface of the display panel, and is configured to notify predetermined information. The icon includes a light blocking layer that is printed with ink that blocks transmission of light, and is visually recognized by radiating light emitted from the light-emitting device from an inner side of the indoor unit.

An indoor unit includes axial-flow fans, which are provided on downstream of an air inlet. Further, a plurality of first bars are provided to the air inlet. In plan view, leading edge portions of blades of the axial-flow fan are inclined in a direction of rotation of the axial-flow fan from a rotary shaft side of the axial-flow fan to an outer peripheral side. Further, in plan view, the plurality of the first bars are inclined in a direction opposite to the direction of rotation of the axial-flow fan from the rotary shaft side of the axial-flow fan to the outer peripheral side.

A fan includes an impeller including a boss that is a rotation center, and a plurality of blades that are provided on an outer peripheral surface of the boss; a motor and a motor fixing portion rotationally driving the impeller; a housing accommodating the impeller; a plurality of stationary blades disposed downstream of the impeller and connecting the motor fixing and the housing; and a connecting portion disposed between the housing and a rotation axis of the impeller, and extending in a rotation direction of the impeller and connecting the plurality of stationary blades. The connecting portion has a recessed portion for passing wind that flows in a radial direction of the impeller.

Fan and air-conditioning device

Provided is an indoor unit for an air-conditioning apparatus including: a sensor box accommodating a sensor configured to detect light; a gearbox configured to hold the sensor box so as to be rotatable, and to be moved along a first axis together with the sensor box; a first motor configured to apply a force causing the sensor box to rotate; a second motor configured to apply a force causing the gearbox to move along the first axis; and a shaft inserted through the gearbox to be rotated by receiving the force from the first motor, in which, in the gearbox, the shaft is inserted, and the gear is accommodated so that a rotational force transmitted from the shaft is transmitted to the sensor box, the gear being movable along the first axis.
