<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To expand an area of a filter and extend a life of an indoor device of an air conditioner by a method wherein there is provided a filter supporting section for supporting the filter at an air passage between an air suction port and an indoor heat exchanger substantially in parallel with a fixing angle of the indoor heat exchanger and in a removable manner. SOLUTION: Since a filter 29 is arranged to be substantially in parallel with an indoor heat exchanger 27, it is possible to form the filter 29 in such a manner that its area is substantially the same as a heat exchanging area of the indoor heat exchanger 27. With such an arrangement as above, the area of the filter 29 becomes larger than that of a suction port 33. In the case that the filter 29 is to be replaced with another filter, a filter ascending to descending switch of a remote controller is turned ON (depressed), an opening or closing driving mechanism 35 is driven to pull down a wire, resulting in that a filter fixing section 24b at its free end is rotated in a downward direction to release a circumferential end frame 24a and a central panel 24c, respectively.</p> |
