Air conditioner having outlet port

Abstract

Disclosed herein is an air conditioner in which the structure of an outlet port is improved to prevent dew condensation at the outlet port. The air conditioner includes an outlet port to discharge air and a guide forming a discharge channel to guide air to the outlet port side. The guide is formed in a step shape to expand the discharge channel. The air conditioner has the effect of preventing dew condensation at the outlet port.

1 . An air conditioner, comprising:
 an outlet port discharging air; and   a guide forming a discharge channel to guide air to an outlet port side, the guide being formed in a step shape to expand the discharge channel.   
   
   
       2 . The air conditioner according to  claim 1 , wherein the guide includes a first guide part forming the discharge channel and a second guide part connected to the first guide part, the second guide part being stepped from the first guide part to expand the discharge channel. 
   
   
       3 . The air conditioner according to  claim 2 , wherein a step is formed between the first guide part and the second guide part. 
   
   
       4 . The air conditioner according to  claim 2 , wherein the discharge channel has a central axis and the second guide part is inclined at a first predetermined angle to the central axis of the discharge channel. 
   
   
       5 . The air conditioner according to  claim 2 , wherein the discharge channel has a central axis and the guide includes an incline connected to the second guide part, the incline being inclined at a second predetermined angle to the central axis of the discharge channel. 
   
   
       6 . An air conditioner, comprising:
 a guide forming a discharge channel to guide air;   an outlet port discharging the air guided by the guide; and   a discharge boundary formed adjacent to the outlet port to face indoor air, the guide being formed in a step shape to expand the discharge channel such that dew condensation is prevented at the discharge boundary.   
   
   
       7 . The air conditioner according to  claim 6 , wherein the guide includes a first guide part forming the discharge channel and a second guide part connected to the first guide part, the second guide part being stepped from the first guide part to expand the discharge channel. 
   
   
       8 . The air conditioner according to  claim 7 , wherein the discharge channel has a central axis and, the second guide part is inclined at a first predetermined angle to the central axis of the discharge channel, and the guide includes an incline inclined at a second predetermined angle to the central axis of the discharge channel. 
   
   
       9 . The air conditioner according to  claim 8 , wherein the inclined angle of the second guide part is less than the inclined angle of the incline. 
   
   
       10 . An air conditioner, comprising:
 an outlet port having a stepped guide;   a discharge boundary adjacent the outlet port; and   a fan blowing air through the outlet port,   wherein the stepped guide is inclined with respect to the discharge boundary.   
   
   
       11 . The air conditioner according to  claim 10 , wherein the stepped guide includes a first guide part, a second guide part and an incline, the first guide part being stepped with respect to the second guide part, the second guide part being inclined with respect to the incline, and the incline being angled with respect to the discharge boundary. 
   
   
       12 . The air conditioner according to  claim 11 , wherein the output port has a central axis, the second guide part is inclined at a first predetermined angle to the central axis and the incline is inclined at a second predetermined angle to the central axis.
