    Description Title of Invention: AIR CONDITIONER Technical Field 5 [0001] The present invention relates to an air conditioner. Background Art [0002] Until now, a technique has been proposed which allows a signal line serving as a medium of transmission and reception of signals between an indoor unit and an outdoor 10 unit of an air conditioner to additionally serve as a function of power supply (power feeding) under a certain circumstance. Hereinafter, this will be briefly introduced. [0003] For example, when a cooling and heating function of an indoor unit is not necessary and only an air-blowing function is required to function, a refrigerant cycle operation of an outdoor unit is not necessary. For such a case, one proposal has been 15 made that the driving of a compressor of the outdoor unit is stopped to make the outdoor unit transition into a so-called operation-standby mode so that the power consumption is reduced. In this case, a path for feeding power to the compressor, and a path for feeding power to a control device which controls the driving of the compressor are interrupted. However, the power supply path of the control device which controls the driving of the 20 compressor is connected to a signal line. [0004] For the return from the operation-standby mode to a normal operation, electric power is fed to the signal line in the indoor unit side and a driving power is supplied to the control device. Thereby, the above power feeding path is connected to the compressor to drive. Such a technique is introduced, for example, in Patent Document 1 25 described below.
    2 [0005] On the other hand, an air conditioner in which a single outdoor unit is connected to a plurality of indoor units (hereinafter referred to as "a multi-indoor unit type air conditioner") has also been proposed until now. The multi-indoor unit type air conditioner is provided with a plurality of signal lines, corresponding to the indoor units. 5 The outdoor unit includes transmission/reception units to each of signal lines, and performs transmission and reception of signals for each of indoor units. Such a technique is introduced, for example, in Patent Document 2 described below. Prior Art Documents 10 Patent Documents [0006] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Publication No.4547950 Patent Document 2: Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No.63-306346 (1988) 15 Summary of Invention Problems to be Solved by the Invention [0007] If the technique of Patent Document 1 is merely applied to the multi-indoor-unit type air conditioner, then the plurality of signal lines will be connected to one another, in order to feed power to the control device of the outdoor unit. However, this will result 20 in broadcasting a signal to the plurality of indoor units, irrespective of trying to send a signal for each of the indoor units. [0008] In order to solve the problem, an object of the present invention is to allow a signal line to serve as a function of power feeding for a transition from the operation standby to the normal operation, so that transmission and reception of signals between an 25 outdoor unit and one indoor unit does not function as transmission and reception of 3 signals between the outdoor unit and another indoor unit. Means for Solving the Problems [0009] A first aspect of an air conditioner of the present invention includes a first 5 power supply line (LI) and a second power supply line (L2) between which electric power is applied; an outdoor unit (20); a plurality of indoor units (10A, 10B); and a plurality of signal lines (SA, SB) which are provided corresponding to each of indoor units and each serves as a medium of transmission and reception of signals between the corresponding indoor unit and the outdoor unit. 10 [0010] Each of the indoor units includes an indoor-unit control unit (12A, 12B); an indoor-power supply unit (11 A, 1 IB) which is fed with electric power from the first power supply line and the second power supply line and supplies indoor-unit controlling power to the indoor-unit control unit; an indoor-unit transmission/reception unit (1 5A, 15B) which is connected to one of the signal lines, the one corresponding to each of 15 indoor units, and performs the transmission and reception of signals with the outdoor unit; and a return switch (MR1OA, MR1OB) which is connected between the one of the signal lines and the first power supply line, and whose conduction/non-conduction is controlled by the indoor unit control unit. [0011] The outdoor unit includes an outdoor unit control unit (21); a first switch 20 (MRM10) which has one end connected to the first power supply line and the other end, and whose conduction/non-conduction between the first end and the other end is controlled by the outdoor-unit control unit; a second switch (MR30) which has a first end connected to the first power supply line, a second end, and a common end to which only one of the first end and the second end is connected based on a control by the 25 outdoor-unit control unit; a plurality of diodes (27A, 27B) which are provided 4 corresponding to each of the indoor units and respectively have anodes connected to the corresponding one of the signal lines and a cathode connected to the second end; an outdoor-power supply unit (22) which is connected to the common end and the second power supply line, connected to the first power supply line via the second switch, or via 5 the second switch, the diodes and the return switches, and supplies outdoor-unit controlling power to the outdoor-unit control unit; a plurality of outdoor transmission/reception units (25A, 25B) which are provided corresponding to each of the indoor units and connected to the corresponding of the signal lines; and a compressor (23) which receives compressor-use power from the second power supply line and the other 10 end. [0012] The outdoor-unit control unit makes the first switch have conduction upon a start of power feeding of the outdoor-unit controlling power, and makes the first switch have non-conduction and makes the common end of the second switch connect with the second end upon a transition from a normal operation of the air conditioner to an 15 operation standby, and the transition into the normal operation is performed by making any of the return switches of the indoor units have conduction in the operation standby. [0013] In a second aspect of the air conditioner of the present invention according to the first aspect, the indoor-unit transmission/reception units (15A, 15B) of all of the indoor units are connected between corresponding one of the signal lines and the second 20 power supply line (L2). [0014] The outdoor unit further includes a transmission power supply unit (24) which is connected to the first power supply line and the second power supply line to receive the electric power, and which supplies a dc voltage, having a high potential with respect to the second power source line, to all of the outdoor transmission/reception units (25A, 25 25B).
    5 [0015] In a third aspect of the air conditioner of the present invention according to the first or second aspect, the outdoor unit (20) further includes a plurality of third switches (28A, 28B) which are provided between the anodes of the diodes (27A, 27B) and the outdoor transmission/reception units (25A, 25B), which are corresponding each other 5 respectively. [0016] The outdoor-unit control unit (21) makes a switch of the third switches have non-conduction, the switch only corresponding to the indoor unit having the return switch that is estimated to have a short-circuit fault. [0017] In a fourth aspect of the air conditioner of the present invention according to 10 any one of the first to the third aspects, the outdoor-unit control unit (21) performs a first operation which makes the common end of the second switch connect with the first end, upon a start of power feeding of the outdoor-unit controlling power. [0018] The indoor-unit control unit (12A) of the indoor unit (10A) with the return switch (MR1OA) having conduction makes the return switch have non-conduction, after a 15 first time which is expected to be necessary to execute the first operation from the start of the conduction of this return switch. [0019] In a fifth aspect of the air conditioner of the present invention according to the third aspect, the outdoor-unit control unit (21) performs a first operation which makes the common end of the second switch connect with the first end, upon a start of power 20 feeding of the outdoor-unit controlling power. The indoor-unit control unit (1 2A) of the indoor unit (10A) with the return switch (MR1OA) having conduction makes the return switch have non-conduction, after a first time which is expected to be necessary to execute the first operation from the start of the conduction of this return switch. The outdoor-unit control unit (21) identifies the indoor units having the return switch that is 25 estimated to have a short-circuit fault, by sequentially making only one of the third 6 switches (28A, 28B) have non-conduction, and by determining failure/non-failure on the transmission and reception of signals. [0020] In a sixth aspect of the air conditioner of the present invention according to the fifth aspect, the failure/non-failure on the transmission and reception of signals is 5 determined as dead time which is longer than a product of the first time and the number of the indoor units. Effects of the Invention [0021] According to the first aspect of the air conditioner of the present invention, the 10 compressor and the outdoor-power supply unit are not operated in the operation standby, so that the power consumption of the outdoor unit can be reduced. By making a return switch of any of the indoor units have conduction in the operation standby, the first power source line is connected to the outdoor-power supply unit via the return switch, a diode, and the second switch, and thus electric power is supplied from the first and the second 15 power supply lines to the outdoor-power supply unit. Therefore, the outdoor-power supply unit supplies the driving power to the outdoor-unit control unit and the outdoor-unit control unit makes the first switch have conduction. Therefore, the compressor is connected not only to the second power supply line but also to the first power supply line via the first switch, and receives the compressor-use power. Thus, the 20 air conditioner transitions from the operation standby to the normal operation. [0022] It is noted that the diodes directed to mutually reverse directions via the second end are connected in series between the signal lines corresponding to different indoor units. Thus, transmission and reception of signals between the outdoor unit and one indoor unit does not function as transmission and reception of signals between the 25 outdoor unit and the other indoor unit.
    7 [0023] According to the second aspect of the air conditioner of the present invention, it is possible to perform transmission and reception of signals, utilizing changes in potential with respect to the dc voltage. [0024] According to the third aspect of the air conditioner of the present invention, as a 5 reason by which transmission and reception of signals are not performed normally, a short-circuit fault due to a welding of a return switch is conceivable. The short-circuit fault hinders the function of the transmission power supply unit. Therefore, the failure of the function of the transmission power supply unit, caused by the short-circuit fault, is avoided by making a third switch have non-conduction, the third switch being 10 corresponds to an indoor unit having a return switch that is assumed to have a short-circuit fault. [0025] According to the fourth aspect of the air conditioner of the present invention, after the transition from the operation standby to the normal operation, the signal lines are disconnected from the first power supply line, so that transmission and reception of 15 signals through the signal lines are enabled. [0026] According to the fifth aspect of the air conditioner of the present invention, in the case that the transmission and reception of signals have failure when all of the third switches have conduction, and only one of third switches has non-conduction so that the transmission and reception of signals become normal, it is determined that a return switch 20 of an indoor unit corresponding to the third switch with non-conduction has a short-circuit fault. Accordingly, it is possible to identify the indoor unit having the return switch that is assumed to have a short-circuit fault, by sequentially making one of the third switches have non-conduction. [0027] An object, feature, aspect, and advantage of the present invention will be more 25 apparent from the following detailed description and the accompanying drawings.

Description of Embodiments 15 [0029] First Embodiment Fig. 1 is a diagram illustrating the configuration of an air conditioner according to a first embodiment. The air conditioner includes power supply lines LI, L2, an outdoor unit 20, a plurality of indoor units (shown here as two) 1 OA, 1 OB, and signal lines SA, SB. 20 [0030] Between the power supply lines Ll, L2, electric power, such as ac power, is supplied from a commercial-power-source input unit 26. [0031] The signal lines SA, SB are respectively provided corresponding to the indoor units 1 OA, 1 OB, and serve as media for transmission and reception of signals between the indoor units 1 OA, 1 OB and the outdoor unit 20. 25 [0032] The indoor unit IOA includes an indoor-power supply unit 1 A, an indoor-unit 9 control unit 12A, an indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 15A, and a return switch MR1OA. [0033] The indoor-power supply unit 11A, fed with electric power from the power supply lines LI, L2, supplies indoor-unit controlling power to the indoor-unit control unit 5 12A. [0034] The indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 15A, which is connected to the signal line SA corresponding to the indoor unit 1 OA, performs transmission and reception of signals between the indoor unit 1 OA and the outdoor unit 10. [0035] The return switch MR10A is connected between the signal line SA and the 10 power supply line Li. The conduction/non-conduction of the return switch MR1OA is controlled by the indoor-unit control unit 12A. [0036] The indoor unit 1OB includes an indoor-power supply unit 1 IB, an indoor-unit control unit 12B, an indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 15B, and a return switch MR1OB. The indoor-power supply unit 1IB, the indoor-unit control unit 12B, the 15 indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 15B, and the return switch MR1OB have identical connection and function with the indoor-power supply unit 11 A, the indoor-unit control unit 12A, the indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 15A, and the return switch MR1OA, respectively. [0037] The outdoor unit 10 includes an outdoor-unit control unit 21, an outdoor-power 20 supply unit 22, a compressor 23, outdoor-unit transmission/reception units 25A, 25B, a first switch MRM10, a second switch MR30, and a plurality of diodes 27A, 27B. [0038] The first switch MRM10 has one end and the other end, and the conduction/non-conduction between the one end and the other end is controlled by the outdoor-unit control unit 21. The one end is connected to the power supply line Li. 25 [0039] The second switch MR30 has a first end, a second end, and a common end.
    10 The common end is connected to only one of the first end and the second end, depending on the control by the outdoor-unit control unit 21. The first end is connected to the power supply line LI. [0040] The compressor 23 receives compressor-use power from the power supply line 5 L2 and the other end of the first switch MRM10. The compressor 23 has a function to compress a refrigerant which is required to operate the air conditioner. The technique described herein is not directly related to the refrigerant cycle itself, and thus the mechanism and description of the refrigerant cycle are omitted. [0041] The outdoor-unit transmission/reception units 25A, 25B are provided 10 corresponding to the indoor units 1OA, lOB, and connected to the corresponding signal lines SA, SB, respectively. [0042] The diodes 27A, 27B are provided corresponding to the indoor units 10A, 1OB, and the anodes of the diodes 27A, 27B are connected to the corresponding signal lines SA, SB, respectively. The cathodes of the diodes 27A, 27B are both connected to the second 15 end of the second switch MR30. [0043] The outdoor-power supply unit 22 is connected to the common end of the second switch MR30 and to the power supply line L2. Thereby, the outdoor-power supply unit 22 is connected to the power supply line Lb via the second switch MR30, or via the second switch MR30, the diode 27A and the return switch MR1OA, or via the 20 second switch MR30, the diode 27B and the return switch MR1OB. Through the connection with the power supply lines LI, L2, the outdoor-power supply unit 22 supplies outdoor-unit controlling power to the outdoor-unit control unit 21. [0044] The outdoor unit 10 is further provided with a transmission power supply unit 24. The transmission power supply unit 24 supplies a dc voltage, which has a high 25 potential with respect to the power source line L2, to all of the outdoor-unit I1 transmission/reception units 25A, 25B via a signal line S. [0045] The transmission power supply unit 24 includes a diode DI, a zener diode ZD 1, and a smoothing capacitor Cl. The diode D1 and the zener diode ZD1 are connected in series to each other between the power source lines Li, L2, with the anode of the diode 5 D1 being directed toward the side of the power supply line Li and the anode of the zener diode ZD1 being directed toward the side of the power source line L2. The smoothing capacitor C1 is connected to the zener diode ZD1 in parallel. [0046] The dc power which is rectified by the diode Dl is smoothed by the smoothing capacitor Cl. It is noted that the smoothed dc power does not exceed a voltage value 10 specified in the zener diode ZD1. The potential at the cathode of the zener diode ZD 1 is applied to the signal line S. [0047] The diode Dl may be provided with a resistor R1. The resistor RI can prevent overcurrent from flowing through the zener diode ZD 1 and the smoothing capacitor Cl. [0048] In addition, the zener diode ZD1 and the smoothing capacitor C1 may be 15 provided with a resistor R2 connected thereto in parallel. The resistor R2 can prevent overvoltage from being applied across the zener diode ZD1 and the smoothing capacitor Cl. [0049] Fig. 2 is a circuit diagram illustrating the configuration of an indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 15 which can be used as the indoor-unit 20 transmission/reception units 15A, 15B. [0050] The indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 15 has terminals 151, 152. When the indoor-unit transmission/reception units 15 are used as the indoor-unit transmission/reception units 15A, 15B, the terminals 151 are connected to the corresponding signal lines SA, SB. Even if the indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25 15 is used for either of the indoor-unit transmission/reception units 15A, 15B, the 12 terminal 152 is connected to the power source line L2. [0051] The indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 15 includes a phototransistor Q151 and a light-emitting diode D 152 which are connected in series to each other between the terminals 151, 152. The phototransistor Q151 is provided with a zener diode ZD151 5 connected thereto in parallel. [0052] The light-emitting diode D152 is provided, with the anode being directed toward the side of the terminal 151 and the cathode being directed toward the side of the terminal 152. [0053] The phototransistor Q151 is provided, with its forward direction being directed 10 in the direction from the terminal 151 toward the terminal 152. As an example, the phototransistor Q151 is an NPN-type bipolar transistor, and is disposed with the collector and the emitter being directed toward the terminal 151 and the terminal 152, respectively. [0054] The zener diode ZD151 is provided, with the cathode being directed toward the side of the terminal 151 and the anode being directed toward the side of the terminal 152. 15 [0055] The phototransistor Q151 has conduction/non-conduction with the reception of pulsed light which is emitted by a light-emitting mechanism (not shown), based on the control of the indoor-unit control unit 12A. Depending on the conduction/non-conduction of the phototransistor Q151, a corresponding low/high potential at the terminal 151 is set. That is, the phototransistor Q151 serves as a function 20 of sending an "L" active signal from the indoor unit 10A or the indoor unit 10B to the outdoor unit 20. [0056] When receiving a signal from the outdoor unit 20, more specifically, from the outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25A or 25B, the phototransistor Q151 remains OFF. When the potential at the terminal 151 is set to a high/low by the outdoor-unit 25 transmission/reception unit 25A or 25B, the zener diode ZD 151 correspondingly has 13 conduction/non-conduction and the light-emitting diode D152 correspondingly turns ON/OFF. Such a blink of light is converted into an electric signal by a light-receiving mechanism (not shown), which is sent to the indoor-unit control unit 12A. That is, the light-emitting diode D152 serves as a function of receiving a "H" active signal (described 5 later) from the outdoor unit 20. [0057] Between the terminals 151, 152, the phototransistor Q151 and the light-emitting diode D152 are desirably provided with a resistor R151 and a diode D151 connected thereto in series. The diode D151 is provided, with the cathode being directed toward the side of the terminal 152 and the anode being directed toward the side of the terminal 10 151. [0058] The resistor R151 prevents overvoltage from being applied across the phototransistor Q151 and across the light-emitting diode D152. The diode D151 shapes the waveforms of the "L" active signal to be sent from the indoor unit 10A or the indoor unit lOB to the outdoor unit 20 and the "H" active signal from the outdoor unit 20. 15 [0059] In addition, the light-emitting diode D152 is desirably provided with a resistor R1 52 connected thereto in parallel, which prevents overcurrent from flowing through the light-emitting diode D152. [0060] Fig. 3 is a circuit diagram illustrating the configuration of an outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25 which can be used as the outdoor-unit 20 transmission/reception units 25A, 25B. [0061] The outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25 has terminals 251, 252. When the outdoor-unit transmission/reception units 25 are used as the outdoor-unit transmission/reception units 25A, 25B, the terminals 251 are connected to the corresponding signal lines SA, SB. Even if the outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25 25 is used for either of the outdoor-unit transmission/reception units 25A, or 25B, the 14 terminal 252 is applied with a dc voltage, from the transmission power supply unit 24 via the signal line S. [0062] The outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25 includes a phototransistor Q251 and a light-emitting diode D252 which are connected in series to each other 5 between the terminals 251, 252. In addition, a structure in which zener diodes ZD251, ZD252 are connected in series to each other (hereinafter, provisionally referred to as "a series connection body") is connected to the phototransistor Q251 in parallel. [0063] The light-emitting diode D252 is provided, with the anode being directed toward the side of the terminal 251 and the cathode being directed toward the side of the 10 terminal 252. [0064] The phototransistor Q251 is provided, with its forward direction being directed in the direction from the terminal 252 toward the terminal 251. As an example, the phototransistor Q251 is an NPN-type bipolar transistor, and is disposed with the collector and the emitter being directed toward the terminal 251 and the terminal 251, respectively. 15 [0065] The zener diodes ZD251, ZD252 are both provided, with the cathodes being directed toward the side of the terminal 252 and the anodes being directed toward the side of the terminal 251. [0066] The phototransistor Q251 has conduction/non-conduction with the reception of pulsed light which is emitted by a light-emitting mechanism (not shown), based on the 20 control of the outdoor-unit control unit 21. Depending on the conduction/non-conduction of the phototransistor Q 251, a corresponding high/low potential at the terminal 251 is set. That is, the phototransistor Q251 serves as a function of sending a "H" active signal from the outdoor unit 20 to the indoor unit 10A or the indoor unit 1OB. 25 [0067] When receiving a signal from the indoor unit 1 OA, 1 OB, more specifically, from 15 the indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 15A or the indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 15B, the phototransistor Q251 remains OFF. When the potential at the terminal 251 is set to a low/high by the indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 15A or the indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 15B, the series connection body correspondingly has 5 conduction/non-conduction and the light-emitting diode D252 correspondingly turns ON/OFF. Such a blink of light is converted into an electric signal by a light-receiving mechanism (not shown), which is sent to the outdoor-unit control unit 21. That is, the light-emitting diode D252 serves as a function of receiving an "L" active signal from the indoor unit 1 OA or 1 OB. 10 [0068] Between the terminals 251, 252, the phototransistor Q251 and the light-emitting diode D252 are desirably provided with a resistor R251 and a diode D251 connected thereto in series. The diode D251 is provided, with the cathode being directed toward the side of the terminal 251 and the anode being directed toward the side of the terminal 252. 15 [0069] The resistor R251 prevents overvoltage from being applied across the phototransistor Q251 and across the light-emitting diode D252. The diode D251 shapes the waveforms of the "L" active signal sent from the indoor unit 10A or the indoor unit 10B to the outdoor unit 20 and the "H" active signal from the outdoor unit 20. [0070] In addition, the light-emitting diode D252 is desirably provided with a resistor 20 R252 connected thereto in parallel, which prevents overcurrent from flowing through the light-emitting diode D252. [0071] Also, the phototransistor Q251 and the series connection body are desirably provided with a resistor R253 connected thereto in parallel. The resistor R253 prevents overcurrent from flowing through the phototransistor Q251 and the series connection 25 body.
    16 [0072] In order to perform transmission and reception of the "H" active signal and the "L" active signal via the signal lines SA, SB as described above, the transmission power supply unit 24 applies a series voltage having a high potential with respect to the power source line L2, such as a voltage of 55V, to the signal line S, as a reference voltage to 5 these signals. Thus, depending on the transmission power supply unit 24, it is possible to perform transmission and reception of signals, utilizing changes in electric potential with respect to the dc voltage. [0073] <brief description of operation in normal operation> In the normal operation, the common end of the second switch MR30 is 10 connected to the first end, and through which the outdoor-power supply unit 22 is connected to the power source line Ll. The outdoor-power supply unit 22 is also connected to the power source line L2. The power source lines L1, L2 are supplied with electric power from the commercial-power-source input unit 26. Accordingly, the outdoor-power supply unit 22 is operated and the outdoor-unit control unit 21 is supplied 15 with the outdoor-unit controlling power. [0074] With the supply of the outdoor-unit controlling power, the outdoor-unit control unit 21 operates and makes the first switch MRM10 have conduction. Since the first switch MRM1O thus has conduction in the normal operation, the compressor 23 is connected not only to the power source line L2 but also to the power source line Ll via 20 the first switch MRM10, and receives the compressor-use power. Thus, the compressor 23 is driven. [0075] The outdoor-unit control unit 21 causes the common end of the second switch MR30 to continue being connected with the first end. In the normal operation, the return switches MR1OA, MR1OB are both non-conductive. Accordingly, the signal lines SA, 25 SB are both interrupted from the power source line L1, by the operation of the second 17 switch MR30 in the outdoor unit 20, and by the operation of the return switches MRlOA, MR1OB in the indoor units 10A, 1OB. [0076] Thus, in the normal operation, the signal line SA operates along with the power source line L2, and serves as a medium of transmission and reception of pulsed-voltage 5 signals with the transmission power supply unit 24 and the outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25A. Similarly, the signal line SB operates along with the power source line L2, and serves as a medium of transmission and reception of pulsed-voltage signals with the transmission power supply unit 24 and the outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25B. The transmission and reception of signals in itself is a 10 known technique, and thus the more detailed description thereof is omitted herein. [0077] In this embodiment, because the diodes 27A, 27B are connected in series and reversely to each other between the signal lines SA, SB, there is no transmission and reception of signals between the signal lines SA, SB. In other words, in the normal operation, even though the diodes 27A, 27B are present, transmission and reception of 15 signals between the indoor unit 10A and the outdoor unit 20 do not function as transmission and reception of signals between the indoor unit 10B and the outdoor unit 20. [0078] <transition from normal operation to operation standby> When only an air-blowing function is required to function for both of the indoor 20 units 10A, 10B, a refrigerant cycle operation of the outdoor unit 10 is not necessary. Thus, depending on the control of the indoor-unit control units 12A, 12B, a power-saving request from the indoor units 1 OA, 1 OB is sent to the outdoor unit 10 via the signal lines SA, SB, respectively. Upon detecting that all of the indoor units 1 OA, 1 OB have issued the power-saving request, the outdoor-unit control unit 21 performs a process to stop the 25 compressor 23. Specifically, the first switch MRM10 is caused to be non-conductive, 18 and thereby the compressor 23 is caused to be stopped. [0079] In addition, the outdoor-unit control unit 21 makes the common end of the second switch MR30 connect with the second end. Since the power feeding into the outdoor-power supply unit 22 is herewith interrupted, the outdoor-unit controlling power 5 into the outdoor-unit control unit 21 is also interrupted. Therefore, the non-conduction of the first switch MRM10 is retained, and the connection of the second switch MR30 is also retained. In Fig. 1, the operation standby mode of the first switch MRM1O, the second switch MR30, and the return switches MR1OA, MR10B is shown. [0080] <transition from operation standby to normal operation (return)> 10 When any of the indoor units 10A, 10B needs a refrigerant cycle operation, such as a cooling and heating operation, in the operation standby mode, the compressor 23 is required to be driven again. Thus, depending on the control of the indoor-unit control units 12A, 12B, the return switches MR1OA, MR1OB are correspondingly made to have conduction. Therefore, the transition from the operation standby to the normal 15 operation is performed as follows. Hereinafter, the description will be made in the case that the return switch MR1OA is made to have conduction. [0081] With the conduction of the return switch MR1OA, the signal line SA is connected to the power source line Li. Therefore, the outdoor-power supply unit 22 is connected to the power supply line Li via the signal line SA, the diode 27A, and the 20 second switch MR30, and is fed with electric power from the power source lines L1, L2. [0082] With the power feeding into the outdoor-power supply unit 22 from the power supply lines L1, L2, the outdoor-unit control unit 21 is fed with the outdoor-unit controlling power, and the outdoor-unit control unit 21 starts operating. Upon a start of the power feeding of the outdoor-unit controlling power, the outdoor-unit control unit 21 25 makes the first switch MRM10 have conduction. Therefore, the compressor 23 is fed 19 with electric power from the power source lines Li, L2 and is operated again, and the refrigerant cycle (not shown) is restarted. [0083] In addition, upon the start of the power feeding of the outdoor-unit controlling power, the outdoor-unit control unit 21 makes the common end of the second switch 5 MR30 connect with the first end (first operation). By the first operation, the power feeding from the power source line Li through the signal lines SA, SB to the outdoor-power supply unit 22 is eliminated. After the completion of the first operation, the return switch MR1 OA is thus made to have non-conduction. [0084] A variety of controls for making the return switch MR1OA have non-conduction 10 are conceivable. But, when the return switch MR1OA has conduction, because the signal line SA is connected to the power source line Li, it is difficult to give an instruction from the outdoor unit 20 through the signal line SA to the indoor unit 1 OA. [0085] As an example, the indoor-unit control unit 12A of the indoor unit 10A, in which the return switch MR1OA has conduction, makes the return switch MR1OA have 15 non-conduction, after a first time which is expected to be necessary to execute the first operation from the start of the conduction of the return switch MR1OA. [0086] After the transition from the operation standby to the normal operation, by making the return switch MR10A have non-conduction in this manner, it is possible to disconnect the signal line SA from the power source line Li and perform transmission 20 and reception of signals through the signal line SA. [0087] As described above, according to the embodiment, the compressor 23 and the outdoor-power supply unit 22 are not operated in the operation standby, so that the power consumption of the outdoor unit 20 can be reduced. [0088] By making any of the return switches MR1OA, MRIOB of the indoor units 10A, 25 10B have conduction in the operation standby, the outdoor-power supply unit 22 is 20 connected to the power source line LI via the return switches MR1OA, MR1OB, the diodes 27A, 27B, and the second switch MR30. Therefore, electric power is supplied from the power source lines LI, L2 to the outdoor-power supply unit 22. [0089] Thus, the outdoor-power supply unit 22 supplies the driving power to the 5 outdoor-unit control unit 21, and the outdoor-unit control unit 21 makes the first switch MRM10 have conduction. Therefore, the compressor 23 is connected not only to the power source line L2 but also to the power source line LI via the first switch MRM1O, and receives the compressor-use power. Therefore, the air conditioner transitions from the operation standby to the normal operation. 10 [0090] Additionally, the diodes 27A, 27B are connected in series and reversely to each other, via the second end, between the signal lines SA, SB corresponding to the different indoor units 1 OA, 1 OB. Thus, transmission and reception of signals between the outdoor unit 20 and the indoor unit 1OA do not function as transmission and reception of signals between the outdoor unit 20 and the indoor unit 1OB. 15 [0091] After the transition from the operation standby to the normal operation, it is possible to disconnect the signal lines SA, SB from the power source line LI and perform transmission and reception of signals through the signal lines SA, SB. [0092] Furthermore, through the function of the transmission power supply unit 24, it is possible to perform transmission and reception of signals, utilizing changes in potential 20 with respect to the dc voltage. [0093] Second Embodiment Fig. 4 is a circuit diagram illustrating the configuration of an air conditioner according to a second embodiment. The air conditioner has an additional configuration to the configuration of the air conditioner according to the first embodiment, in which 25 third switches 28A, 28B are added to the outdoor unit 20.
    21 [0094] Specifically, the third switch 28A is provided between the anode of the diode 27A and the outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25A, and the third switch 28B is provided between the anode of the diode 27B and the outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25B. 5 [0095] The outdoor-unit control unit 21 makes a switch of the third switches 28A, 28B have non-conduction, only the switch corresponding to the indoor units 10A, lOB having the return switches MR10A, MR1OB that is estimated to have a short-circuit fault. If there is no indoor unit which is estimated to have a short-circuit fault, then the third switches 28A, 28B have conduction and the operation of the second embodiment is 10 applied with the operation described in the first embodiment. [0096] Hereinafter, meaning of providing the third switches 28A, 28B will be described. As a reason of the problem that normal transmission and reception of signals are not performed between the indoor unit 10A, 10B and the outdoor unit 20, a short-circuit fault of the return switches MR1OA, MR10B is conceivable. An aspect of 15 the short-circuit fault is a welding, for example. [0097] In the configuration of the first embodiment, if the return switch MR10A has a short-circuit fault, then the power supply line LI is connected to the signal line SA and the blink of the light-emitting diode D152 (see Fig. 2) of the indoor unit transmission/reception unit 15A is influenced, not only by the conduction/non-conduction 20 of the phototransistor Q251 (see Fig. 3) of the outdoor unit transmission/reception unit 25A, but also by the potential on the power supply line Li. Therefore, normal transmission and reception of signals cannot be performed between the indoor unit 1OA and the outdoor unit 20. [0098] In addition, from the smoothing capacitor C1 to the power supply line Ll, a 25 discharge path is formed by a series connection of the signal line S, the outdoor-unit 22 transmission/reception unit 25A and the return switch MR1OA having a short-circuit fault. As a result, the dc voltage provided by the transmission power supply unit 24 to the signal line S can no longer have a normal value, so that the short-circuit fault hinders the function of the transmission power supply unit 24. This hinders even normal 5 transmission and reception of signals performed between the indoor unit 10B having the return switch MR1OB without short-circuit fault and the outdoor unit 20. [0099] Accordingly, the third switch 28A corresponding to the return switch MR1OA that is estimated to have a short-circuit fault is made to have non-conduction. Therefore, the above discharge path is interrupted. But, even with such measures, transmission and 10 reception of signals between the indoor unit 10A and the outdoor unit 20 cannot still be performed normally. However, because the failure of the function of the transmission power supply unit 24 can be avoided, the transmission and reception of signals between the indoor unit lOB and the outdoor unit 20 are performed normally. [0100] As to estimating which of the return switches MR1OA, MR1OB has a 15 short-circuit fault, the following method can be adopted. [0101] Generally, in the transmission and reception of signals in a multi-indoor-unit type air conditioner, communication from an outdoor unit to individual indoor units is performed sequentially, in order to identify the plurality of indoor units. In this embodiment, in the normal operation, the outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25A 20 first outputs a "H" active signal to the signal line SA, then the indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 15A receives this signal and outputs a signal, which also functions as an acknowledge, to the signal line SA with "L" active. The outdoor-unit control unit 21 analyzes the signal and determines whether the indoor unit 10A is normally operating. 25 [0102] Subsequently, the outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25B outputs a "H" 23 active signal to the signal line SB, then the indoor-unit transmission/reception unit 15B receives this signal and outputs a signal, which also functions as an acknowledge, to the signal line SB with "L" active. The outdoor-unit control unit 21 analyzes the signal and determines whether the indoor unit 10B is normally operating. 5 [0103] If any of the return switches MR10A, MR10B has a short-circuit fault, then normal communication with any of the indoor units 1OA, 10B is not performed, as described above. That is, the return switch MR10A, MR1OB in any of indoor units 10A, 1 OB may have a short-circuit fault. [0104] Accordingly, upon the determination that both of the indoor units 10A, lOB are 10 not normally operating or are not able to perform normal communication, the outdoor-unit control unit 21 performs a second operation to identify an indoor unit which is estimated to have a short-circuit fault. [0105] In the second operation, the outdoor-unit control unit 21 sequentially makes one of the third switches 28A, 28B have non-conduction. In addition, by determining 15 failure/non-failure on transmission and reception of signals, the outdoor-unit control unit 21 identifies an indoor unit having the return switch that is estimated to have a short-circuit fault. [0106] Fig. 5 is a flowchart illustrating the operation of the outdoor-unit control unit 21 in the second operation and the preceding operation thereof. In Step S101, transmission 20 from the outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25A to the signal line SA is performed. In Step S102, it is determined whether a normal "L" active signal is transmitted to the signal line SA. If the result of the determination in Step S102 is affirmative, then this process determines that the above short-circuit fault has not occurred and proceeds to another process in Step S2. That is, the second operation is not performed. 25 [0107] If the result of the determination of Step S102 is negative, then transmission 24 from the outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25B to the signal line SB is performed in Step S103. In Step S104, it is determined whether a normal "L" active signal is transmitted to the signal line SB. If the result of the determination in Step S102 is affirmative, then this process determines that the above short-circuit fault has not 5 occurred, and proceeds to another process in Step S2. That is, the second operation is not performed. [0108] If the result of the determination in Step S104 is negative, this means that both of the indoor units 1 OA, 1 OB are not normally operating or are not able to perform normal communication, and thus the second operation subsequent to Step S105 is performed. 10 [0109] At first, in Step S105, the third switch 28A is made to have non-conduction. Because transmission and reception of signals through the signal line SA is disable by this, it is determined whether signals are normally performed to an indoor unit other than the indoor unit 10A, i.e. the indoor unit lOB in this embodiment. Specifically, in Step S106, transmission from the outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 25B to the signal line SB 15 is performed. In Step S107, it is determined whether a normal "L" active signal is transmitted to the signal line SB. [0110] If the result of the determination in Step S107 is affirmative, the above short-circuit fault is estimated to occur in the return switch MR10A of the indoor unit 10A. Thus, the following operations are performed with a premise that the indoor unit 20 10A is not normal. As an example, the outdoor unit 20 may inform the outside that the return switch MR1OA of the indoor unit 1OA is not normal. [0111] If the result of the determination in Step S107 is negative, the above short-circuit fault is estimated not to be produced in the return switch MR1OA of the indoor unit 1OA. Thus, in Step 108, the third switch 28A is made to have conduction. 25 [0112] Further, in step S 109, the third switch 28B is made to have non-conduction.
    25 Because transmission and reception of signals through the signal line SB is disable by this, it is determined whether transmission and reception of signals are normally performed to an indoor unit other than the indoor unit 1OB, i.e. the indoor unit 1OA in this embodiment. Specifically, in Step Sl10, transmission from the outdoor-unit transmission/reception unit 5 25A to the signal line SA is performed. In Step S11, it is determined whether a normal "L" active signal is transmitted to the signal line SA. [0113] If the result of the determination in Step S111 is affirmative, the above short-circuit fault is assumed to occur in the return switch MR OB of the indoor unit lOB. Thus, the following operations are performed with a premise that the indoor unit 10B is 10 not normal. As an example, the outdoor unit 20 may inform the outside that the return switch MROB of the indoor unit 1OB is not normal. [0114] If the result of the determination in Step SIll is negative, it is estimated that the transmission and reception of signals was not performed normally due to a different reason other than a short-circuit fault of the return switches MR10A, MR1OB. Thus, in 15 Step S 112, the third switch 28B is made to have conduction and then this process proceeds to another process in Step S3. As an example, the outdoor-unit control unit 21 may force the compressor 23 to stop. [0115] Thus, according to the second embodiment, in the case that the transmission and reception of signals have failure when all of the third switches 28A, 28B have 20 conduction, and only one of them becomes non-conduction so that the transmission and reception of signals become normal, it is determined that a return switch of an indoor unit corresponding to the third switch with non-conduction has a short-circuit fault. Accordingly, it is possible to identify an indoor unit having the return switch that is estimated to have a short-circuit fault, by sequentially making only one of the third 25 switches have non-conduction.
    26 [0116] Desirably, a predetermined dead time is set for the determination of failure/non-failure on transmission and reception of signals in Steps S 102, S 104. Within the first time, the return switch MR10A, MR10B has conduction, and thus normal transmission and reception of signals cannot be performed. As a result, when all of the 5 return switches MR1 OA, MR1 OB sequentially have conduction with a duration of the first time, it is not possible to perform normal transmission and reception of signals in the dead time which is a product of the first time and the number of the indoor units. [0117] Therefore, it is desirable to perform the determination of failure/non-failure on transmission and reception of signals, with the dead time which is longer than the product 10 of the first time and the number of the indoor units (indicated here as two). [0118] Modification Although any of the above embodiments is exemplified in the case that two indoor units are provided, it is apparent that the embodiments may also be applied in the case that three or more indoor units are provided. 15 [0119] When three or more indoor units are provided for an example, it is possible to perform an operation corresponding to a signal line other than the signal lines SA, SB, in Steps S 106, S107 of the second embodiment. [0120] As an example, the indoor-unit control units 12A, 12B, and the outdoor-unit control unit 21 include a microcomputer and a storage. The microcomputer executes 20 each process step (in other words, procedure) written in a program. The storage may include one or more various storage devices, such as a ROM (Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), a rewritable nonvolatile memory (e.g., EPROM: Erasable Programmable ROM), and a hard disk device. The storage stores a variety of information and data, stores a program executed by the microcomputer, and provides a 25 work area which is used for executing the program. It can be grasped that the 27 microcomputer functions as a variety of means corresponding to each process step written in a program, or achieves a variety of functions corresponding to each process step. [0121] Furthermore, the indoor-unit control units 12A, 12B, and the outdoor-unit control unit 21 may, not limited to this, achieve a part or all of a variety of procedures 5 performed by the indoor-unit control units 12A, 12B, and the outdoor-unit control unit 21, or a part or all of a variety of means or functions accomplished thereby, with hardware. [0122] Although the present invention has been described in detail, the above description is merely intended in all aspects to provide an example and thus the present invention is not limited thereto. It should be understood that an infinite number of 10 unillustrated modifications can be conceivable without departing from the scope of the present invention.
