Abstract

See full text

An air-conditioning apparatus includes a body, a decorative panel attached to a lower surface of the body defining a lower surface of the air-conditioning apparatus, an air-inlet grille that can rotate to open and close and is attached to an air inlet of the decorative panel, and a shaft disposed on the decorative panel. The shaft is movable along an axis of rotation of the air-inlet grille. The shaft includes a shaft body, a pivot protruding from one end face of the shaft body in a moving direction of the shaft, and a rib extending parallel to the pivot. The air-inlet grille has a mating portion into which the pivot is inserted to support rotation of the air-inlet grille. The pivot engages the air-inlet grille at a first limit of a movable range of the shaft. The rib engages the decorative panel while the pivot is fitted in the mating portion.
