Abstract
In an air conditioner having a vertical wind deflector in an air outlet, in order to blow almost all of a warm air flow toward a floor surface without leakage on the ceiling surface side at the heating operation time, a recess connecting with an air passage in a housing is formed at the front part of the air outlet, and a vertical wind deflector is disposed in the recess via a support frame. At the cooling operation time, the support frame and the vertical wind deflector are opened integrally, and at the heating operation time, only the vertical wind deflector is opened in a state in which the support frame is stored in the recess.
