Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3534083A1] An air conditioning indoor unit that can facilitate elimination of temperature unevenness in an air conditioning target space during cooling operation to achieve the highly comfortable air conditioning target space is provided. The air conditioning indoor unit includes a casing having an intake port and a blow-out port, an indoor heat exchanger exchanging heat with air sucked through the intake port to draw the heat from the air, an indoor fan sends the air exchanged heat at the indoor heat exchanger out of the blow-out port, an airflow direction switching mechanism, and a switching mechanism control unit. The airflow direction switching mechanism switches, at least between a first direction and a second direction, an airflow direction of blow-out air from the blow-out port. The first direction is horizontal or substantially horizontal direction. The second direction is vertically downward or substantially vertically downward direction. The switching mechanism control unit controls operation of the airflow direction switching mechanism so that the blow-out air temporarily blows out in the second direction when temperature unevenness is detected or presumed in the air conditioning target space while the blow-out air blowing out in the first direction.
