Detailed Description
< first embodiment >
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. Fig. 1 is a front view of the outdoor unit 10, and fig. 2 and 3 are perspective views showing the right and left sides of the outdoor unit 10 from the back side. The outdoor unit 10 includes a rectangular parallelepiped casing 11, and the casing 11 has an upper panel 11U disposed on an upper portion and a bottom panel 11D disposed on a bottom portion. A front panel 11F is disposed in front of the circumferential surface of the case 11, and a rear panel 11B is disposed behind the circumferential surface. Further, a left side panel 11L is disposed on the left side, and a right side panel 11R is disposed on the right side. The left and right side panels 11L and 11R are formed in an L shape when viewed from above, and are partially curved toward the rear side.
An exhaust port 12 is opened in the center of the front plate 11F of the case 11, and a circular grill 12a is attached to the exhaust port 12. Rear panel 11B has a rear air inlet 11BS, and left side panel 11L has a left air inlet 11 LS. The right side plate 11R has a right side air inlet 11RS opened in a part of the rear surface side. Left side air inlet 11LS and right side air inlet 11RS are formed in a grid shape. Further, handle recesses 63R and 63L are provided in the upper portions of the right and left side panels 11R and 11L, respectively.
Fig. 4 is an exploded perspective view of the outdoor unit 10, and fig. 5 and 6 are exploded perspective views showing a part of the right side portion of the outdoor unit 10. In fig. 5 and 6, the blower 30 and the compressor 40 are not shown. A heat exchanger 24 is disposed on the rear surface side inside the case 11. Both ends of the heat exchanger 24 are bent and the heat exchanger 24 is formed in a substantially コ shape (may be substantially L-shaped) as viewed from above. Heat exchanger 24 is disposed to face left side air inlet 11LS, back air inlet 11BS, and right side air inlet 11RS, and is exposed to the outside of case 11 through left side air inlet 11LS, back air inlet 11BS, and right side air inlet 11 RS.
Inside the case 11, a partition wall 20 is provided upright from the bottom panel 11D, and the heat exchanger 24 is partitioned by the partition wall 20. The partition wall 20 is formed in an L-shape as viewed from above, partitions the blower 30 and the compressor 40, and partitions the heat exchanger 24 and the compressor 40 by being wound back to the back side of the compressor 40. Thus, the interior of the case 11 is divided into a heat exchanger chamber 21 and a machine chamber 22 by the partition wall 20, and the heat exchanger 24 is disposed on the rear side of the heat exchanger chamber 21 and the blower 30 is disposed on the front side.
When the blower 30 is driven, the suction force of the air causes the outside air to flow into the heat exchanger compartment 21 through the left side air inlet 11LS, the back air inlet 11BS, and the right side air inlet 11 RS. The inflow external air is heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger 24, and flows through the heat exchanger chamber 21 and is blown out from the exhaust port 12 to the outside.
The machine chamber 22 is vertically partitioned, and an electric unit 50 is disposed in an upper portion and a compressor 40 is disposed in a lower portion. The electric unit 50 has a circuit board (not shown), and is electrically connected to the blower 30 and the compressor 40. The electric unit 50 controls the operation of the outdoor unit 10. A terminal portion 55 is disposed on an outer surface of the right side plate 11R, and the terminal portion 55 is used to introduce a power supply line and/or a control line from the outside of the outdoor unit 10 to the electric part 50.
A heat sink (not shown) is provided on the bottom surface of the electric part 50. The radiator has fins 51 on the heat exchanger chamber 21 side, and the fins 51 are exposed to the inside of the heat exchanger chamber 21. Thereby, the fins 51 are cooled by the airflow flowing through the heat exchanger chamber 21. The heat generating components mounted on the circuit board are cooled by the heat sink and the fins 51.
A vent hole 54 is provided in the right side panel 11R forming the side wall of the machine chamber 22. The electric unit 50 is provided with a communication hole (not shown) for communicating the heat exchanger chamber 21 and the machine chamber 22. Thus, if the blower 30 is driven, the air of the machine chamber 22 is introduced into the heat exchanger chamber 21 via the communication hole. The external air can be sucked into the machine chamber 22 through the vent hole 54 by the suction force, and the cooling effect of the electric part 50 can be improved.
An opening 53 is opened in an upper portion of an outer surface of the right side plate 11R, and a pipe connection portion 52 for connecting two refrigerant pipes (not shown) is disposed in a lower portion of the outer surface. Further, a vent hole 54 is disposed between the opening 53 and the pipe connection portion 52. The opening 53, the pipe connection portion 52, and the vent hole 54 are covered with a cover 60 made of resin. At this time, the outer wall 63RO of the handle recess 63R is inserted into the opening 53.
The pipe connection portion 52 has a two-way valve 52a and a three-way valve 52b, and the refrigerant pipe is connected via the two-way valve 52a and the three-way valve 52 b. During the cooling operation, the liquid refrigerant flows through the refrigerant pipe connected to the two-way valve 52 a. On the other hand, during the cooling operation, a gas refrigerant flows through the refrigerant pipe connected to the three-way valve 52 b.
Fig. 7 and 8 are perspective views showing the inner surface side of the cover 60, and fig. 8 shows a state where the fireproof plate 70 is fitted and inserted. In order to cover the two-way valve 52a and the three-way valve 52b, a bulging portion 65 is formed at a lower portion of the cover 60, and a drawing port 65a is opened at a rear surface side of the bulging portion 65. The refrigerant pipe connected to the pipe connection portion 52 and the power supply line and/or the control line connected to the terminal portion 55 are drawn out to the outside of the cover 60 through the drawing port 65 a. A handle recess 63R is provided in the upper portion of the cover 60, and an intake hole 64 communicating with the vent hole 54 is provided between the recess 63R and the bulging portion 65.
A metal fire shield plate 70 is disposed between the right side plate 11R and the cover 60. A bulging portion 75 is formed at a lower portion of the fire shield 70 so as to cover the pipe connection portion 52. The bulging portion 75 of the fireproof plate 70 is fitted into the inside of the bulging portion 65 of the insertion cover 60. The fire-proof plate 70 prevents a fire from entering the casing 11 through the pipe connecting portion 52 when a fire breaks out around the outdoor unit 10.
A shielding plate 71 is formed integrally with the fire shield plate 70 at an upper portion of the fire shield plate 70. The shielding plate 71 is disposed upright between the ventilation hole 54 and the suction hole 64, and the upper end of the shielding plate 71 is located above the ventilation hole 54 and the suction hole 64.
An upper rib 67 is provided on the inner surface side of the cover 60 and above the air intake hole 64. The upper rib 67 has side ribs 68 at both ends thereof, the side ribs 68 pass through the side of the air intake hole 64 and extend downward, and the upper rib 67 and the side ribs 68 are formed in an コ shape that is open downward. Further, a lower rib (first shielding portion) 69 is provided below the side rib 68. The upper rib 67, the side ribs 68, and the lower rib 69 protrude from the inner surface of the cover 60 and abut against the outer surface of the shielding plate 71.
Thereby, the guide portion 90 (see fig. 9) is formed, and the guide portion 90 has the upper rib 67 as an upper wall, the side rib 68 as a side wall, and a part of the outer surface of the shielding plate 71 as a peripheral wall. The guide portion 90 guides the airflow flowing in from the air intake hole 64 to the lower side of the shielding plate 71. At this time, since the wall surface of the guide portion 90 is formed by the shielding plate 71, the distance between the shielding plate 71 and the inner surface of the cover 60 can be shortened. Therefore, the outdoor unit 10 can be downsized. The fireproof plate 70 and the shielding plate 71 are formed integrally, and when the fireproof plate 70 blocks the gap between the cover 60 and the shielding plate 71, the lower rib 69 may be omitted.
A shielding portion (second shielding portion) 72 that blocks between the shielding plate 71 and the right side panel 11R is provided below the ventilation hole 54. The shielding portion 72 prevents raindrops and dust flowing into the cover 60 from the outlet 65a from entering the vent hole 54. Further, a rib (third shielding portion) 73 is provided on the inner surface side of the cover 60, and the rib 73 is disposed above the upper end of the shielding plate 71 so as to block a space between the cover 60 and the right side plate 11R. The rib 73 prevents raindrops and dust flowing into the cover 60 from entering the case 11 through the opening 53.
Fig. 9 and 10 are explanatory views of the gas flow path a communicating the vent hole 54 and the suction hole 64, and fig. 9 is a plan view of the cover 60 showing the suction hole 64 from the inner surface side. Fig. 10 is a front cross-sectional view of the gas flow path a in a state where the cover 60 is fixed to the right side plate 11R. The gas flow entering the gas flow path a from the suction hole 64 descends along the guide portion 90. The airflow that descends along the guide portion 90 and flows out of the guide portion 90 is blocked by the lower rib 69 and flows sideways along the lower rib 69. The airflow flowing sideward is detoured to the lower end of the side rib 68 and rises along the outer surface of the shielding plate 71 outside the side rib 68.
The airflow rising outside the side ribs 68 bends between the upper end of the shielding plate 71 and the rib (third shielding portion) 73, descends along the inside of the shielding plate 71, and flows into the case 11 through the vent hole 54. By bending the gas flow path a up and down a plurality of times, water droplets entering the breathing holes 54 from the air intake holes 64 can be further reduced.
Fig. 11 and 12 are an enlarged perspective view and a plan view of the engagement claw 66, and fig. 13 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which the engagement claw 66 is inserted into the engagement hole 56. An engagement claw 66 is provided on a circumferential edge of an inner surface of the cover 60, and the cover 60 is fixed to the right side panel 11R by screwing after the engagement claw 66 is inserted into the slit-shaped engagement hole 56 provided in the right side panel 11R and the cover 60 is slid upward (see fig. 5 and 6).
At this time, an annular outer circumferential rib 66a (see fig. 7 and 8) that is arranged along the circumferential portion and protrudes is provided on the inner surface of the cover 60, and the outer circumferential rib 66a abuts against the right side panel 11R. Further, a shielding rib 66b protruding at the same height as the outer circumferential rib 66a is formed around the engaging pawl 66, and a part of the shielding rib 66b is formed by the outer circumferential rib 66 a.
When the cover 60 is fixed to the right side panel 11R, the shielding rib 66b is disposed around the engagement hole 56. Thus, noise (arrow N) leaking to the outside through the gap S1 of the engagement hole 56 is blocked by the blocking rib 66b, and the gap S1 is generated when the engagement pawl 66 is inserted into the engagement hole 56 from the inside of the housing 11 and then slid. Therefore, noise generated when the compressor 40 or the like is driven and generated inside the casing 11 can be prevented from leaking to the outside through the gap S1.
Further, a concave thin portion 66c is provided between the engagement claw 66 and the shielding rib 66b, and a sink (concave portion) is prevented from being generated at the time of molding.
Fig. 14 is a front cross-sectional view of the recess 63R in a state where the cover 60 is fixed to the right side panel 11R. When the cover 60 is fixed to the right side panel 11R, the outer wall 63RO of the handle recess 63 is inserted into the opening 53 formed in the right side panel 11R. At this time, the outer wall 63RO of the recess 63R abuts on the upper wall 53a of the opening 53. Thus, when the outdoor unit 10 is lifted by inserting fingers into the concave portion 63R, the upper wall 53a of the opening 53 is supported by the fingers. Therefore, the weight of the outdoor unit 10 applied to the cover 60 can be reduced, so that the cover 60 can be prevented from being deformed.
Further, a curved portion 53b curved toward the inside of the case 11 is formed on the upper wall 53a of the opening 53, and the curved portion 53a and the outer wall 63RO of the recess 63R are in surface contact with each other. This enables the upper wall 53a to be stably supported when the outdoor unit 10 is lifted, thereby further preventing the cover 60 from being deformed. The bent portion 53a is inclined upward toward the inside of the case 11. Thus, when the fingers are inserted into the recessed portion 63R, the fingers can easily grip the recessed portion 63R, and the convenience in carrying is improved.
Further, when the opening 53 is largely opened in the vertical direction with respect to the outer wall 63RO of the recess 63R and the cover 60 is slid and fixed upward along the right side panel 11R, a gap S2 is generated between the lower wall 53c of the opening 53 and the outer wall 63RO of the recess 63R. Thereby, the power supply line and/or the control line can be drawn out from the electric part 50 to the terminal part 55 through the gap S2.
Fig. 15 and 16 are perspective views of the handle recess 63L provided in the left side panel 11L. The recess 63L is made of resin and is inserted into and fixed to an opening (not shown) formed in the upper portion of the left side plate 11L. A plurality of slit-shaped through holes 63LH2 extending vertically are provided in parallel and in parallel in the peripheral wall of the recess 63L. Further, a plurality of slit-shaped through holes 63LH1 extending in the front-rear direction are provided in parallel and in parallel in the bottom wall of the recess 63L. Thus, the outside air is sucked into the case 11 through the through holes 63LH1 and 63LH 2. Therefore, the heat exchange rate of the heat exchanger 24 can be improved.
The through holes 63LH1 and 63LH2 are formed continuously, and reinforcing ribs are provided around the rear surfaces of the through holes 63LH1 and 63LH2 to reinforce the peripheral wall and the bottom wall of the recess 63L. This prevents the concave portion 63L from being deformed when the outdoor unit 10 is lifted.
According to the present embodiment, the upper end of the shielding plate 71 is disposed above the ventilation hole 54 and the intake hole 64, and the lower rib (first shielding portion) blocks the gap between the cover 60 and the shielding plate 71, and the shielding portion 72 (second shielding portion) blocks the gap between the shielding plate 71 and the housing 11. The airflow flowing in from the air intake hole 64 rises along the shielding plate 71, then bends downward between the upper end of the shielding plate 71 and the rib (third shielding portion) 73, descends along the shielding plate 71, and is guided toward the ventilation hole 54. This prevents water droplets and dust from entering the vent hole 54 through the outlet 65 a.
Further, since the guide portion for guiding the airflow flowing in from the intake holes 64 downward is formed by the rib of the cover 60, the gas flow path a can be bent up and down a plurality of times, and water droplets entering the vent holes 54 from the intake holes 64 can be further reduced.
Further, since the shielding plate 71 forms a wall surface of the guide portion facing the side surface of the case 11, the distance between the shielding plate 71 and the inner surface of the cover 60 can be shortened. Therefore, the outdoor unit 10 can be downsized.
Further, by providing the metal fire shield 70 disposed on the inner surface side of the cover 60 and covering the pipe connecting portion 52 and integrally forming the shield plate 71 from the fire shield 70, the number of parts of the shield plate 71 can be reduced, and cost reduction can be achieved.
The heat exchanger chamber 21 and the machine chamber 22 are communicated by a communication hole (not shown) provided in the electric unit 50, and if the blower 30 is driven, air in the machine chamber 22 is introduced into the heat exchanger chamber 21 through the communication hole. By the suction force, the outside air can be sucked into the machine chamber 22 through the air intake holes 64 and the air vent holes 54, and the cooling effect inside the electric part 50 can be improved.
Further, by inserting the handle recess 63R provided in the cover 60 into the opening 53 and bringing the upper wall 53a of the opening 53 into contact with the outer wall 63RO of the recess 63R, the upper wall 53a of the opening 53 is supported by fingers when the fingers are inserted into the recess 63R and the outdoor unit 10 is lifted. Therefore, the weight of the outdoor unit 10 applied to the cover 60 can be reduced, so that the cover 60 can be prevented from being deformed.
Further, a curved portion 53b curved toward the inside of the case 11 is formed on the upper wall 53a of the opening 53, and the curved portion 53b is in surface contact with the outer wall 63RO of the recess 63R. This stably supports the upper wall 53a when the outdoor unit 10 is lifted, and further prevents the cover 60 from being deformed.
Further, by inclining the curved portion 53b upward toward the inside of the case 11, when fingers are inserted into the concave portion 63R, the fingers easily grip the inside of the concave portion 63R, and convenience in carrying is improved.
The cover 60 is fixed to the case 11 by inserting and sliding an engagement claw 66 provided on the inner surface of the cover 60 into a slit-shaped engagement hole 56 formed in the side surface of the case 11, an outer circumferential rib 66a protruding so as to surround the outer circumference and a shielding rib 66b protruding at substantially the same height as the outer circumferential rib 66a are formed on the inner surface of the cover 60, and the shielding rib 66b is disposed around the engagement hole 56 when the cover 60 is fixed. Thus, the shielding rib 66b shields the noise (arrow N) leaking to the outside through the gap S1 of the engagement hole 56. Therefore, noise generated when the compressor 40 or the like is driven and generated inside the casing 11 can be prevented from leaking to the outside through the gap S1.
< second embodiment >
Fig. 17 is an explanatory view illustrating a gas flow path a of the outdoor unit 10 according to the second embodiment. In addition, the same portions as those of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted. In contrast to the first embodiment, in the second embodiment, the upper rib 67 is not brought into contact with the shielding plate 71, and the guide portion 90 is not formed on the outer surface of the shielding plate 71.
Specifically, the guide plate 91 forms the guide portion 90, and the guide plate 91 extends downward from the tip of the upper rib 67, and has a lower end located below the suction hole 64. Thereby, the airflow flowing in from the air intake hole 64 descends along the outer surface of the guide plate 91, and winds back to the inner surface of the guide plate 91 below the lower end of the guide plate 91 and ascends along the outer surface of the shielding plate 71.
< third embodiment >
Fig. 18 is an explanatory view for explaining the gas flow path a of the outdoor unit 10 according to the third embodiment. In addition, the same portions as those of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted. The third embodiment forms the shielding portion 72 by bending the fire prevention plate 70, as compared with the first embodiment. This reduces the number of parts of the shielding portion 72, thereby reducing the cost.
