ABSTRACT:
An air conditioner with a direction changing device enabling safe handling of condensed water without causing reduction in direction changing capacity in a cooling-mode operation is provided. The air conditioner comprises a main body, air conditioning members provided in the main body for achieving a function of conditioning the air, an outlet grille located in a front side of the main body for directing air from inside the main body to outside the main body and a lateral flap placed in an opening of the outlet grille for changing the direction of air in the lateral direction. A part of the lateral flap is held by a mounting shaft. The lateral flap can be pivotally moved in the lateral direction about the mounting shaft. A convex portion is provided in a downwind end of the lateral flap. When the end portion of the lateral flap is moved either in the right or left direction, condensed water adhered to the lateral flap is gathered at the convex portion, then the condensed water gathered at the convex portion is transferred to a wall of the outlet grille, and flows out of a room through the main body of air conditioner.
