Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an outdoor unit of an air conditioner having a heat sink for efficiently cooling a power module as an electronic component for driving and controlling the air conditioner.
  • An outdoor unit of an air conditioner in the related art has a structure in which an electric component box is provided along a partition plate for dividing the interior of the outdoor unit into a machinery chamber and a heat exchanger chamber, and in order to cool a power module on an electronic substrate provided in the electric component box, a heat radiation fin is projected from the heat exchanger chamber side of the electric component box, a heat sink is provided at an angle such that the longitudinal direction of the heat radiation fin extends vertically with respect to a heat exchanger on the back surface side of the outdoor unit, and an angular U-shaped wind direction guide is provided on the heat radiation fin.
  • the angular U-shaped wind direction guide keeps a constant space with the heat sink, and is mounted in such a manner that an upstream side thereof projects toward the heat exchanger and a downstream side thereof is opened (for example, Patent Literature 1).
  • EP 1 956 310 A1 describes an outdoor unit of an air conditioner in which an substrate attachment plate is inclined and an control circuit board is fixed to an opening, a heat sink being fixed in parallel in contact with the control circuit board. Cooling fins protrude toward the inside of the fan chamber.
  • a heat sink In an outdoor unit of an air conditioner in the related art, a heat sink can not be arranged along a main stream of air taken through a heat exchanger and blown to outdoor from a blowout port on a front surface of the outdoor unit. Therefore, only a small part of the whole air taken from the heat exchanger flows into the heat sink, and hence the volume of the air passing through a heat radiation fin of the heat sink is not sufficient. Consequently, a cooling efficiency of the heat sink is low.
  • an object of the present invention to provide an outdoor unit of an air conditioner in which breakdown of a power module due to heat rupture is prevented by achieving efficient cooling of a heat sink being configured to cool the power module and having heat radiation fins provided so as to project from one of side surfaces of an electric component box toward a heat exchanger chamber, whereby high operation reliability is ensured.
  • An outdoor unit of an air conditioner according to the present invention including:
  • the electric component partition plate being in contact at the one end thereof with the end of the heat exchanger positioned on the side of the back surface of the heat exchanger chamber and at the other end thereof with the front plate of the outdoor unit and being configured to divide the interior of the electric component box and the heat exchanger chamber, is inclined so that the extended line thereof toward the front surface of the outdoor unit intersects a line of projection of the front edge of a vane of the propeller fan, the electronic substrate is fixed to the opening provided on the electric component partition plate so as to be positioned within the electric component box and the heat sink for cooling the power module is fixed in parallel to the one surface of the electric component partition plate in contact with the back side of the electronic substrate, and the plurality of heat radiation fins are provided on the one surface of the heat sink so as to project toward the heat exchanger chamber and extend in parallel to the flow of the air on the electric component partition plate.
  • the heat radiation fins of the heat sink are capable of capturing a main stream of the air, and the speed of the air passing through the heat radiation fins may be increased.
  • the air flowing inward from an inlet port of the heat sink reaches an outlet port without leaving the heat sink at some midpoint and escaping therefrom, and generation of significant wind drift in an air duct of the outdoor unit is prevented, a pressure loss in the air duct is reduced, and a cooling efficiency of the heat sink is enhanced by being capable of increasing the air volume in the entire outdoor unit, so that operation reliability of the air conditioner is enhanced by preventing breakdown due to heat rupture of the power module.
  • the cooling can be achieved sufficiently even with the heat sink having a smaller volume than that in the related art by increasing the air volume of the entire outdoor unit, reduction of the manufacturing cost and reduction of the weight of the outdoor unit are achieved.

  • the heat sink 17 for cooling the power module which includes the plurality of heat radiation fins 16 on one surface thereof, is molded by an extrusion method or the like using a metal having a high thermal conductivity such as aluminum as a material in order to prevent the temperature of the power module from exceeding a heat resistant temperature and causing damages and breakdown.
  • Air taken by the rotation of the propeller fan 6 from the back surface of the outdoor unit is subjected to the heat exchange with respect to the refrigerant in the heat exchanger 5, passes through the spaces among the plurality of vanes of the propeller fan 6 or a space between the propeller fan 6 and the bell mouth 10, and is blown out from the blowout port 9 of the front plate 8 of the outdoor unit.
  • part of the air taken through the heat exchanger 5 flows from an inlet port of the heat sink 17 smoothly along the electric component partition plate 15 without meandering significantly, passes through the plurality of heat radiation fins 16 arranged in parallel to the flow of air on the electric component partition plate 15 without allowing the air escaping from a midsection of the heat sink 17, and is blown out from an outlet port of the heat sink 17, so that the heat sink 17 is cooled, and the power module on the electronic substrate 13, which is in contact with the heat sink 17, is also cooled.

Therefore, the cooling efficiency of the heat sink 17 is lowered in comparison with the case where the lid portion 20 is provided.
  • the wind direction guide 18 may be molded using synthetic resin or the like, the shape can be changed freely to some extent. Therefore, when further enhancement of the cooling efficiency of the heat sink 17 is wanted, the angle ⁇ of attachment of the inlet member 19 of the wind direction guide 18 may be increased so that the surface area of the opening is increased in order to increase the volume of the air flowing into the inlet port of the heat sink 17.
