Claim 3

A method for controlling an air-conditioner, wherein when the temperature of air inside the room is lowered to a preset OFF temperature as a result of the cooling operation, the supply of an electric power to both a compressor and an outdoor fan of the refrigeration system is interrupted by the detection thereof, but when the temperature of air inside the room increases to a preset ON temperature, the supply of the electric power to both of the compressor and the outdoor fan is initiated and, at the same time, the blowing capacity of an indoor fan for supplying air, cooled by an indoor heat-exchanger, into the house room to cool the latter is irregularily switched over between strong and weak states during the period starting from thee time at which the temperature of air inside the house room has attained the present ON temperature and ending at the time at which the temperature of air inside the house room has subsequently attained the preset OFF position.

Claim 4

A method for controlling an air-conditioner, wherein when the temperature of air inside the room is lowered to a preset OFF temperature as a result of the cooling operation, the supply of an electric power to both a compressor and an outdoor fan of the refrigeration system is interrupted by the detection thereof, but when the temperature of air inside the room increases to a preset ON temperature, the supply of the electric power to both of the compressor and the outdoor fan is initiated and, at the same time, the blowing capacity of an indoor fan for supplying air, cooled by an indoor heat-exchanger, into the house room to cool the latter is irregularily switched over between strong and weak states during the period starting from thee time at which the temperature of air inside the house room has attained the present ON temperature and ending at the time at which the temperature of air inside the house room has subsequently attained the preset OFF position.

Claim 5

A method for controlling an air-conditioner wherein an indoor fan for supplying air, cooled by an indoor heat-exchanger, into a house room for cooling the latter is driven at a predetermined high speed subsequent to the start of the cooling operation and until the temperature of air inside the house room attains a preset OFF temperature; the refrigerating cycle is brought to a halt subsequent to the attainment of the temperature of air inside the house room to the present OFF temperature but before it increases to a preset ON temperature; and during a period in which the temperature of air inside the house room then equal to the preset On temperature increases to the preset OFF temperature, the indoor fan is controlled so as to irregularily switch the blowing capacity thereof over between strong and weak states in a low speed range.

Claim 6

A method for controlling an air-conditioner wherein an indoor fan for supplying air, cooled by an indoor heat-exchanger, into a house room for cooling the latter is driven at a predetermined high speed subsequent to the start of the cooling operation and until the temperature of air inside the house room attains a preset OFF temperature; the refrigerating cycle is brought to a halt subsequent to the attainment of the temperature of air inside the house room to the present OFF temperature but before it increases to a preset ON temperature; and during a period in which the temperature of air inside the house room then equal to the preset On temperature increases to the preset OFF temperature, the indoor fan is controlled so as to irregularily switch the blowing capacity thereof over between strong and weak states in a low speed range.

Claim 7

A method for controlling an air-conditioner, wherein, while the cooling operation is interrupted when the temperature of air inside a house room has attained a preset OFF temperature, the cooling operatin is again initiated, when the temperature of air inside the house room has attained a preset ON temperature, and at this time the blowing capacity of an indoor fan for supplying air, cooled by an indoor heat-exchanger, is irregularily switched over between strong and weak states to permit both of the preset OFF and ON temperatures to be suitably increased as the operating time passes.

Claim 8

A method for controlling an air-conditioner, wherein, while the cooling operation is interrupted when the temperature of air inside a house room has attained a preset OFF temperature, the cooling operatin is again initiated, when the temperature of air inside the house room has attained a preset ON temperature, and at this time the blowing capacity of an indoor fan for supplying air, cooled by an indoor heat-exchanger, is irregularily switched over between strong and weak states to permit both of the preset OFF and ON temperatures to be suitably increased as the operating time passes.

Claim 9

A method for controlling an air-conditioner, which comprises the steps of: driving an indoor fan for suppying an air, cooled by an indoor heat-exchanger, into a house room to cool the latter, at a predetermined high speed immediately after the start of a cooling operation; interrupting the operation of each of a compressor forming a refrigerating cycle, an outdoor fan for supplying an air to an outdoor heat-exchanger and the indoor fan when and after the temperature of air inside the house room has attained a preset OFF temperature; effecting the operation of both of the compressor and the outdoor fan and driving a motor for the indoor fan at a low spped region when and after the temperature of air inside the house room has subsequently increased to a preset ON temperature; and increasing both of the OFF and ON temperature to suitable values; wherein said effecting step is carried out by alternately effecting and interrupting the supply of an electric power to said motor at irregular intervals, the duration during which the electric power supply is effected is chosen at random while the duration which the electric power supply is interrupted is fixed.

Claim 10

A method for controlling an air-conditioner, which comprises the steps of: driving an indoor fan for suppying an air, cooled by an indoor heat-exchanger, into a house room to cool the latter, at a predetermined high speed immediately after the start of a cooling operation; interrupting the operation of each of a compressor forming a refrigerating cycle, an outdoor fan for supplying an air to an outdoor heat-exchanger and the indoor fan when and after the temperature of air inside the house room has attained a preset OFF temperature; effecting the operation of both of the compressor and the outdoor fan and driving a motor for the indoor fan at a low spped region when and after the temperature of air inside the house room has subsequently increased to a preset ON temperature; and increasing both of the OFF and ON temperature to suitable values; wherein said effecting step is carried out by alternately effecting and interrupting the supply of an electric power to said motor at irregular intervals, the duration during which the electric power supply is effected is chosen at random while the duration which the electric power supply is interrupted is fixed.

Claim 11

A method for controlling an air-conditioner wherein the blowing capacity of an indoor fan for supplying air, cooled by an indoor heat-exchanger forming a part of the refrigeration system, into a house room to cool the latter is irregularly randomly switched over between strong and weak states, wherein the irregular switching over between the strong and weak states is carried out by alternately effectiving and interrupting the supply of an electric power to an indoor fan motor for the indoor fan and wherein the duration during which the electric supply is interrupted is fixed, but the duration during which the electric power supply is effected is randomly chosen.

Claim 12

A method for controlling an air-conditioner wherein the blowing capacity of an indoor fan for supplying air, cooled by an indoor heat-exchanger forming a part of the refrigeration system, into a house room to cool the latter is irregularly randomly switched over between strong and weak states, wherein the irregular switching over between the strong and weak states is carried out by alternately effectiving and interrupting the supply of an electric power to an indoor fan motor for the indoor fan and wherein the duration during which the electric supply is interrupted is fixed, but the duration during which the electric power supply is effected is randomly chosen.
