Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cross flow fan, especially, to a cross flow fan impeller, where rotational noise of the impeller is reduced in a low frequency band of the noise.
  • a plurality of outlet nozzles 7 are provided in a lower front panel of a casing 6, a plurality of inlet ports 8 are provided in an upper front panel of the casing 6, and a heat exchanger 9 is provided behind the inlet ports 8 inside of the casing 6.
  • a cross flow fan impeller 4 is located between a back panel of the casing 6 and the heat exchanger 9 inside of the casing 6. Air is led through the inlet ports 8. The temperature of the air is changed by the heat exchanger 9 to cool or warm. The air is sent to the outlet nozzles 7 by rotation of the cross flow fan impeller 4 and the air is thus blown into the interior of a room through the outlet nozzles 7.
  • the cross flow fan impeller 4 includes a plurality of division plates 3, which are perpendicular to a rotational axis of the impeller, and a plurality of blades 1 as shown in Fig. 8.
  • the blades 1 are provided at periodic intervals between each pair of division plates 3.
  • the impeller 4 makes a noise, which corresponds to a number of blades.
  • the noise corresponding to the number of blades is called the noise "NZ", hereinafter.
  • the blades 1 are provided aperiodically, that is, provided at random intervals. This type of cross flow fan impeller is disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. SHO 60-17296.
  • Fig. 9 shows a result of frequency analysis of rotational noise of a known cross flow fan impeller, where the blades are provided periodically.
  • Fig. 10 shows a result of frequency analysis of rotational noise of a known cross flow fan impeller where the blades are provided aperiodically, as disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. SHO 60-17296.
  • the noise "NZ" can be reduced in the cross flow fan impeller where the blades are provided aperiodically, as disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. SHO 60-17296.
  • another problem is raised that noise of low frequency, less than 600Hz, is generated as shown in Fig. 10.
  • Fig. 10 is a simulation result of frequency analysis of rotational noise of a cross flow fan impeller, where the blades are provided at random intervals based on the following equation.
  • ⁇ k ⁇ k 0 + d ⁇ ⁇ ( rnd( ⁇ ) - ⁇ /2) where,
  • Fig. 11 shows the locating angle ⁇ k which indicates the location of the k-th blade.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide an improved cross flow fan impeller, whereby the noise "NZ” can be reduced and the noise "N” in the low frequency band (lower than 600 Hz) can be also reduced.
  • a cross flow fan impeller includes a plurality of division plates being perpendicular to a rotational axis of the impeller and a plurality of blades provided between each pair of the plurality of division plates.
  • Fig. 1 shows a first embodiment of a cross flow fan impeller 4 according to the present invention.
  • a plurality of blades 1 including a reference blade 2 and a plurality of division plates 3 are provided in the impeller 4 of the first embodiment.
  • Each of the blades 1 is located with a locating angle ⁇ k away from the reference blade 2 based on the following equation.
  • ⁇ k ⁇ k 0 + ⁇ ⁇ d ⁇ ⁇ Sin( ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ 0 ⁇ k) where,
  • ⁇ k 0 2 ⁇ ⁇ k/35 .
  • the blades 1 are respectively located in positions obtained by the above equation (2).
  • Fig. 12 explains the above equation (2).
  • the reference angle ⁇ 0 equals to the angle d ⁇ .
  • the reference angle ⁇ 0 is used in the equation (3) for the simulation purpose.
  • ⁇ ⁇ d ⁇ ⁇ Sin( ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ 0 ⁇ k) shows displacement from ⁇ k 0, that is, the locating angle in the case of providing blades at equal intervals.
  • Fig. 2 shows an air conditioner including the cross flow fan impeller 4 of Embodiment 1 of the present invention.
  • a casing 6, an outlet 7, a plurality of inlet ports 8, a heat exchanger 9, and a stabilizer 10 are provided in an internal unit 5 of the air conditioner.
  • Fig. 3 is a sine curve showing the variation location of the blades 1 according to Embodiment 1 of the invention, the points A through D corresponding to the 0° , 90° , 180° , and 270° positions, as indicated in Fig. 1.
  • the location of the blades 1 is varied cyclically.
  • the noise "NZ” is modulated as shown in Fig. 4. A peak level of the noise “NZ” is dispersed and the noise level is thus decreased.
  • the noise level of the noise "N” generated by the impeller itself is decreased because there is still correlation among the blades.
  • ⁇ the cyclic coefficient
  • NZ the noise "NZ" is further modulated and it is effective to locate the plurality of blades cyclically.
  • ⁇ the cyclic coefficient
  • ⁇ the locating angle displacement coefficient
  • each location of the plurality of blades is determined by the equation (2) as in Embodiment 1, and the locating angle ⁇ k further includes a skew angle ⁇ ' as shown in Fig. 5. It is well-known that providing each blade with the skew angle ⁇ ' reduces the noise "NZ". To the configuration of Embodiment 1, the above feature is added, that is, each blade is provided with the skew angle ⁇ '. The noise "NZ" is reduced further more than the cross flow fan impeller only including the feature of Embodiment 1.
  • the cyclic coefficient ⁇ is a natural number greater than 2 in the cross flow fan impeller of Embodiment 5.
  • the noise "NZ" is further modulated and it is effective to locate the plurality of blades cyclically.
  • the cyclic coefficient ⁇ is a natural even number greater than 2 in the cross flow fan impeller of Embodiment 5.
  • the impeller is thus well-balanced mechanically.
  • the locating angle displacement coefficient ⁇ is a rational number and 0 ⁇ 1 in the cross flow fan impeller of Embodiment 5. Accordingly, the interval between each pair of adjacent blades does not become the same and none of the plurality of blades touches the next blade.
