This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18092832 titled 'INDOOR UNIT FOR AIR CONDITIONER

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an indoor unit for an air conditioner that includes a cabinet assembly, a filter module, a mobile member, a driving device, and a controller.

• The cabinet assembly forms the external appearance of the indoor unit and has a suction port at the rear surface.
• The filter module is movably disposed behind the cabinet assembly and filters foreign substances in the air entering through the suction port.
• A mobile member is connected to the filter module and can move the position of the filter module.
• A driving device is used to press the mobile member, thereby changing the position of the filter module.
• The controller receives a control command to change the position of the filter module and operates the driving device accordingly.

Potential applications of this technology:

• Residential air conditioning systems
• Commercial air conditioning systems
• Industrial air conditioning systems

Problems solved by this technology:

• Efficiently filtering foreign substances in the air entering the air conditioner
• Easy maintenance and replacement of the filter module

Benefits of this technology:

• Improved air quality by effectively filtering out foreign substances
• Simplified maintenance process for the filter module
• Enhanced performance and longevity of the air conditioner
