Abstract
An air conditioner device having a housing or duct with an opening for exit of air and one or more rotatable flaps for adjusting air flow rate and angle exiting through the opening. An ionizer having an electrode is configured to ionize air exiting through the opening, and a cleaning pad is adapted to frictionally remove debris from the electrode consequent to rotation of the flaps without requiring manual operation by a user.
Claims15
An air conditioner device, comprising:
- a housing or duct having an opening for exit of air flowing parallel to a longitudinal axis of the housing or duct,
- one or more rotatable flaps that span across said opening and each of which is adapted to swing about a respective axis of the flap substantially normal to said longitudinal axis to adjust airflow rate and angle of the air exiting through said opening,
- an ionizer having an electrode for ionizing the air exiting through said opening, and
- a cleaning pad positioned on the air conditioner device to frictionally remove debris from said electrode as a consequence to rotation of the one or more flaps about the respective axis without requiring manual operation by a user,
- wherein the ionizer is mounted in the housing or duct and the cleaning pad is mounted on one of the one or more rotatable flaps.
