Abstract:
An air conditioning apparatus includes a control device that controls a swing action of flaps of an air conditioning apparatus. The flaps are swung up and down. The control device includes an operation mode determining section, a swing pattern storage area and a control command generator. The operation mode determining section determines at least an air-cooling operation mode and an air-warming operation mode that are operation modes of the air conditioning apparatus. The swing pattern storage area stores a plurality of swing patterns that include information pertaining to the swing action. The control command generator generates a control command of the air conditioning apparatus on the basis of a swing pattern corresponding to the mode determined by the operation mode determining section from among the plurality of swing patterns.
Abstract:
The air conditioner includes an indoor unit including a main body having formed therein a blow-out port and a microphone element that accepts a voice instruction. The blow-out port is formed to extend with a longitudinal direction thereof corresponding to a second direction. The indoor unit includes a fan and an inverter fan motor that drives the fan. The fan is accommodated in the main body and a rotational axis of the fan extends in the second direction, and the fan motor is disposed on one side of an inside of the main body in the second direction and is disposed on one side of the fan in the second direction. The voice capturing portion is disposed on an opposite side of the main body as the side on which the fan motor is disposed in the second direction.
Abstract:
Provided is an air conditioner including an indoor unit provided with a microphone element for receiving voice instructions, such that a voice instruction spoken by an operator is acquired with high quality and control based on the voice instruction spoken by the operator is likely to be ensured. The air conditioner includes an indoor unit, a transmission unit, and a reception unit. The indoor unit has a main body and a microphone element. The main body has formed therein a blow-out port through which air-conditioned air is blown out toward a space to be air-conditioned. The microphone element accepts a voice instruction captured from a voice capturing portion arranged at a position that deviates from a ventilation space through which the air blown out from the blow-out port flows, in such a manner as to face the space to be air-conditioned. The transmission unit transmits the voice instruction accepted by the microphone element to an outside as a signal. The acceptance unit receives a command corresponding to the signal transmitted from the transmission unit from the outside.
Abstract:
Provided is an air conditioner including an indoor unit provided with a microphone element for receiving voice instructions, such that a voice instruction spoken by an operator is acquired with high quality and control based on the voice instruction spoken by the operator is likely to be ensured. The air conditioner includes an indoor unit (12), a transmission unit, and a reception unit. The indoor unit has a main body (100) and a microphone element. The main body has formed therein a blow-out port (120) through which air-conditioned air is blown out toward a space to be air-conditioned. The microphone element accepts a voice instruction captured from a voice capturing portion (P1) arranged at a position that deviates from a ventilation space through which the air blown out from the blow-out port flows, in such a manner as to face the space to be air-conditioned. The transmission unit transmits the voice instruction accepted by the microphone element to an outside as a signal. The acceptance unit receives a command corresponding to the signal transmitted from the transmission unit from the outside.
