Abstract: An air conditioner may provide a fan housing assembly that moves in the front-rear direction by the operation of an actuator, and the fan housing assembly moves so as to pass through a front outlet arranged on a door assembly to be in a projected state, and the front end of the fan housing assembly protrudes further to the front than the front surface of the door assembly; and through the projected state, may provide conditioned air by a direct air flow to a long-distance target region. The configuration may enable the minimization of interference between the discharged air and the door assembly, and the minimization of flow loss of the discharged air since, when the fan housing assembly is in the projected state, a steering grill is in a state of protruding to the outside of the door assembly by passing through the front outlet.

Abstract: Air conditioner is provided that may include a case having an inlet and an outlet provided below the inlet, a heat exchanger configured to heat exchange external air introduced into the case through the inlet, a blower fan disposed below the heat exchanger and configured to be rotated by a rotational shaft formed in a lateral direction so as to send air inside the case from the inlet to the outlet, a lower guide that guides air, which is blown toward a lower side of the blower fan by the blower fan, to the outlet, an upper guide spaced apart from the lower guide to form a discharge passage with the lower guide, and a sterilization device disposed at one side of the lower guide and having a sterilization lamp configured to emit ultraviolet light toward the blower fan. A lower end of the sterilization lamp may be disposed lower than an upper surface of the lower guide.
