PURPOSE:To enhance external appearance or design of a front panel and prevent damage to a handle or deformation of the front panel from occurring, by a construction wherein a handle is provided on a side surface part on the removing side of an air filter insertably fitted on the rear side of the front panel, and the handle is covered by an operating door attached to an operating port of the panel. CONSTITUTION:To fit an air filter 6, the filter 6 is inserted into an inserting port at a right end part of an intake port 3 by opening an operating door 8, and is fitted in position by sliding horizontally along upper and lower guide rails disposed in parallel with each other on the back side of the intake port 3. To remove the air filter 6, the door 8 is opened, fingers are inserted into a notch 5b in an operating port 5 and a notch 6b in the filter 6, a handle 6c of the filer 6 is gripped with the fingers, and the filter is removed by sliding the filter horizontally while bending the filter slightly inwards. Because the handle 6c of the air filter 6 is covered by the operating door 8 during normal operation, the external appearance of the front panel 2 is not damaged. Because the handle 6c does not make contact with other objects, it is possible to prevent damage to the handle 6c or deformation of the front panel 2 from occurring. |
