This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18027235 titled 'INDOOR UNIT AND REFRIGERATION CYCLE DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an indoor unit for air conditioning systems.
- The unit consists of a main body attached to an installation section, with an opening near the target space.
- A panel covers the opening and has an air inlet and outlet for suctioning and discharging air.
- A fan is provided in the main body to generate airflow by suctioning air from the panel's inlet and blowing it out from the outlet.
- A bell mouth is positioned before the fan to guide the suctioned air towards it.
- An electric component box is located before the bell mouth, creating an air-flowing space and housing a control unit for the fan's operation.
Original Abstract Submitted
An indoor unit includes: a main body having an opening near an air-conditioning target space and attached to an installation section; a panel having an air inlet through which air is suctioned and an air outlet through which the suctioned air is discharged, and covering the opening of the main body; a fan provided to the main body and generating flow of air that is suctioned from the air inlet of the panel and blown out from the air outlet of the panel; a bell mouth provided upstream of the fan in the main body and guiding the air suctioned from the air inlet toward the fan; and an electric component box provided upstream of the bell mouth in the main body, to thereby define an air-flowing space between the electric component box and the bell mouth, and accommodating a control unit that controls operation of the fan.
