Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0823598A2] An in-ceiling type air conditioner (50) including an unit body (2) which contains a heat exchanger (16) and an air blower (10) and is mounted in the ceiling (1), a decorative panel (7) provided on the ceiling face, an elevating panel with an air filter (24) which is upwardly and downwardly moved by an elevating motor (140), a driver circuit for supplying an operating current to the elevating motor to rotate the elevating motor (140) forwardly and backwardly, a controller (160) for outputting a control signal to the driver circuit and controlling the driver circuit (305) on the basis of the control signal, a consumption current detector for detecting the consumption current (307) of the elevating motor (140) at all times to output a detection result to the controller (160), and a timer (309) for counting a predetermined time and outputting the count result to the controller (160). When the consumption current detected by the consumption current detector exceeds a predetermined value during the upward or downward motion of the elevating panel, the controller outputs an operation stop instruction to the driver circuit to stop the rotation of the elevating motor (140) and thus stop the elevating panel.
