Abstract (en)

To provide an indoor unit of an air conditioner that can reduce, over what has conventionally been the case, the potential to spoil the beauty inside a room. An indoor unit (2a) of an air conditioner (1) is disposed with a casing body (23) and a front panel (50). The casing body (23) includes a blowout opening (26) through which air blown out into a room passes and a first suction opening (27) through which air taken in from the room passes. The front panel (50) opens and closes at least one of the blowout opening (26) and the first suction opening (27). A middle portion (52) of the front panel (50) changes between two or more stationary states, and the degree of curvature of the cross-sectionally seen shape of the middle portion in a first state is different from the degree of curvature of the cross-sectionally seen shape of the middle portion in a second state.
