Abstract

An air conditioner is provided. A location of, an angle between, or a distance between, a heat exchanger and a blower may be varied based on whether or not the air conditioner is operating. A number of drivers for moving the heat exchanger and/or the blower may be reduced and reliability of the driver be enhanced. Size of the air conditioner may be reduced, and efficiency may be improved.
