Patent ID: 11774149

Abstract:
An air conditioner includes a first inlet-side inside/outside air switching part, a first outlet-side outside/inside air switching part, a second inlet-side inside/outside air switching part and a second outlet-side inside/outside air switching part. In a dehumidifying heating mode, the first outlet-side inside/outside air switching part makes a switch to a ventilation path that guides air having passed through a first heat exchange part into a space to be air-conditioned, and the second inlet-side inside/outside air switching part makes a switch to a ventilation path that guides outside air to a second heat exchange part. In a defrosting mode, the second inlet-side inside/outside air switching part makes a switch to a ventilation path that guides inside air to the second heat exchange part, and a flow rate of refrigerant flowing through the second heat exchange part is reduced more than in the dehumidifying heating mode.
