Description

本発明はターボファンおよび空気調和機、特に、空気清浄、加除湿、冷暖房などの空気調和機に用いられるターボファンおよび当該ターボファンを搭載した空気調和機に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a turbo fan and an air conditioner, and more particularly to a turbo fan used in an air conditioner such as air purifier, humidifying / dehumidifying, and air conditioning, and an air conditioner equipped with the turbo fan.

(あ)従来の天井埋込型空気調和機に搭載される送風ファンには、そのファンの羽根が3次元形状に形成されたターボファンが広く採用されている。
たとえば、羽根の入口径を主板側から側板側にかけて漸次拡大し、かつ羽根の側板側端部の入口径を前記側板の吸込口径より大きくし、さらに羽根の上端を羽根車の回転方向に傾斜させたもの、また、羽根車軸心と同心となる円筒状に切断した時の断面を平面状に展開した断面上で羽根車の回転軸と羽根上端部とのなす傾斜角度を羽根車内周側から外周側にかけて大きくなるように設定し、側板近傍では前記傾斜角度が小さくなるように設定したものが、それぞれ開示されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。
(A) As a blower fan mounted on a conventional ceiling-embedded air conditioner, a turbofan in which the fan blades are formed in a three-dimensional shape is widely used.
For example, the inlet diameter of the blade is gradually increased from the main plate side to the side plate side, the inlet diameter of the side plate side end of the blade is made larger than the suction port diameter of the side plate, and the upper end of the blade is inclined in the rotation direction of the impeller. In addition, the inclination angle formed by the rotation axis of the impeller and the upper end of the impeller on the cross section obtained by flattening the cross section when cut into a cylindrical shape that is concentric with the impeller shaft center from the inner peripheral side of the impeller Each of them is set to increase toward the side and set so that the inclination angle decreases in the vicinity of the side plate (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

このようにターボファンを形成することで、羽根の上端部から流入する流れが羽根負圧面で剥離することを抑制し、送風性能の低下および乱流騒音の増加を抑制することができる。   By forming the turbo fan in this way, it is possible to suppress the flow flowing from the upper end portion of the blades from being separated at the blade negative pressure surface, and it is possible to suppress the deterioration of the blowing performance and the increase of the turbulent noise.

(い)また、従来の別の例として、各羽根の後縁部における側板側結合点の位置を主板側結合点よりも反回転方向に所定量オフセットせしめるとともに、各羽根の羽根前縁部における側板側結合点の位置を主板側結合点の位置よりも羽根車の回転方向に所定量オフセットせしめたものが開示されている(例えば、特許文献2参照)。   (Ii) As another conventional example, the position of the side plate side coupling point at the trailing edge of each blade is offset by a predetermined amount in the counter-rotating direction from the main plate side coupling point, and at the blade leading edge of each blade. A device is disclosed in which the position of the side plate side coupling point is offset by a predetermined amount in the rotational direction of the impeller from the position of the main plate side coupling point (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

このようにターボファンを形成することで、羽根後縁部において羽根圧力面が側板側へ傾斜することから圧力面により空気に作用する力が側板寄り方向となるため側板側の出口側での剥離流を防止することができる。さらに、羽根前縁部において流速の大きな羽根の側板側における翼弦長が長くなることで主板側寄りの羽根前縁部へ流入した流れが側板側へ向かい、羽根の側板側出口側の剥離流の発生が防止されるため、羽根車の下流側に配置された熱交換器の前面側における風速分布が上下方向の全域において均一化される。   By forming the turbo fan in this way, the blade pressure surface inclines toward the side plate at the blade trailing edge, so that the force acting on the air by the pressure surface is in the direction closer to the side plate, so the separation at the outlet side on the side plate side Flow can be prevented. Furthermore, since the chord length on the side plate side of the blade having a large flow velocity at the blade leading edge becomes longer, the flow flowing into the blade leading edge near the main plate moves toward the side plate, and the separation flow on the side plate side outlet side of the blade. Therefore, the wind speed distribution on the front side of the heat exchanger arranged on the downstream side of the impeller is made uniform in the entire vertical direction.

(う)さらに、従来の別の例として、羽根は前縁から後縁に渡り、主板との接合端部に対し側板との接合端部の位置が回転方向側へずらされ、前記羽根の前縁側における側板側の端部が回転方向側へ傾斜されているもの、また、羽根前縁部において径方向内方へ向かって回転方向へ傾斜されてなり、その傾斜角度(入口角α)が主板側及び側板側に対し中央側が大きいもの、主板側よりも側板側が小さいもの、さらに、羽根後縁部において、径方向外方へ向かって反回転方向へ傾斜され、その傾斜角度(出口角β)は主板側および側板側に対して中央側が大きくされているもの等が、それぞれ開示されている(例えば、特許文献3参照)。   (C) Further, as another conventional example, the blades extend from the front edge to the rear edge, the position of the joint end with the side plate is shifted to the rotational direction side with respect to the joint end with the main plate, and the front of the blade The edge of the side plate on the edge side is inclined to the rotation direction side, and the blade front edge is inclined inward in the radial direction in the rotation direction, and the inclination angle (inlet angle α) is the main plate. The center side is larger than the side plate and the side plate side, the side plate side is smaller than the main plate side, and further, the blade trailing edge is inclined in the counter-rotating direction radially outward, and the inclination angle (exit angle β) Are disclosed in which the central side is larger than the main plate side and the side plate side, respectively (for example, see Patent Document 3).

このようにターボファンを形成することで、流入空気の軸方向の速度成分が特に大きくなる羽根の前縁側における側板側端部が、回転方向へ傾斜されて流入する空気の流入方向に沿わされているため、羽根の反回転方向側に生じやすい剥離を確実に防ぎ、性能向上および騒音低減を図ることができる。また、前縁側傾斜角度αが中央部で大きいことにより、内周側からの空気の取り入れをきわめて円滑に行うことができる。さらに、主板側よりも側板側が傾斜角度αが小さい場合、流入角度に沿った形状のため円滑に空気を取り入れることができる。また、羽根後縁部において、傾斜角度(出口角β)は主板側、側板側に対し中央側が大きいことで外周側に送風される空気の均一化を図ることができる。   By forming the turbo fan in this way, the side plate side end portion on the front edge side of the blade, where the velocity component in the axial direction of the inflowing air is particularly large, is inclined in the rotation direction and is aligned with the inflow direction of the inflowing air. Therefore, it is possible to reliably prevent peeling that tends to occur on the side opposite to the rotation direction of the blades, and to improve performance and reduce noise. Further, since the leading edge side inclination angle α is large at the center portion, air can be taken in from the inner peripheral side very smoothly. Further, when the inclination angle α is smaller on the side plate side than on the main plate side, air can be smoothly taken in due to the shape along the inflow angle. Further, in the blade trailing edge, the inclination angle (exit angle β) is larger on the center side than the main plate side and the side plate side, so that the air blown to the outer peripheral side can be made uniform.

しかしながら、特許文献1〜3に開示されたターボファンおよび空気調和機は、以下のような問題を有する。
(イ)特許文献1に開示されたターボファンは組立性が悪い。すなわち、羽根の上端を羽根車の回転方向に傾斜させた場合、少なくとも側板と羽根が別体に成形後、溶着、勘合等で羽根車を一体に形成されるターボファンでは、羽根に側板を回転軸方向に力を加え押さえ結合するため、羽根上端の側板側が傾斜形状であるから、羽根の主板側結合点に応力が付加され、さらに羽根の側板側にうまく力が加わりづらい。
However, the turbofan and air conditioner disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3 have the following problems.
(A) The turbofan disclosed in Patent Document 1 has poor assemblability. That is, when the upper end of the blade is tilted in the direction of rotation of the impeller, at least the side plate and the blade are molded separately, and then the turbo fan in which the impeller is integrally formed by welding, fitting, etc., rotates the side plate on the blade. Since the side plate side at the upper end of the blade has an inclined shape because a force is applied in the axial direction and pressed, the stress is applied to the main plate side coupling point of the blade, and the force is not easily applied to the side plate side of the blade.

(ロ)また、熱可塑性樹脂で成形する場合、材料が増加して重量も増加し、加工性が悪い。すなわち、熱可塑性樹脂で成形する場合、ヒケが生じる恐れがあり、加工性が悪い羽根の肉厚は羽根車高さ方向の主板から側板へ向けて略同一なため、回転軸と直交する平面視において羽根の肉厚が羽根車内周から徐々に厚くなり、さらに、羽根車外周へ向けて薄肉となる翼型翼の場合、例えば、肉厚が厚くなる羽根の中央付近では、側面視における傾斜した羽根上端部で肉厚が厚くなり材料が増加し、重量も増加する。また熱可塑性樹脂で成形する場合、ヒケが生じる恐れがあり、加工性が悪い。   (B) When molding with a thermoplastic resin, the material increases, the weight also increases, and the processability is poor. That is, there is a possibility that sink marks may occur when molding with a thermoplastic resin, and the thickness of the blade with poor workability is substantially the same from the main plate to the side plate in the impeller height direction. In the case of an airfoil wing that gradually increases in thickness from the inner periphery of the impeller and becomes thinner toward the outer periphery of the impeller, for example, near the center of the blade where the thickness increases, the blade is inclined in a side view. The wall thickness is increased at the upper end of the blade, the material is increased, and the weight is increased. Further, when molding with a thermoplastic resin, there is a risk of sink marks, and the processability is poor.

(ハ)さらに、羽根の上端の傾斜角度が少なくとも羽根車内周から外周に向かい大きくなることで羽根の側板側結合部での流入量が増加するため、羽根の羽根車内周側から流入してきた流れと干渉し、騒音や振動が発生し、周辺環境を悪化させる恐れ(以下「騒音悪化の恐れ」と称す)がある。   (C) Furthermore, since the amount of inflow at the side plate side coupling portion of the blade increases because the inclination angle of the upper end of the blade increases at least from the inner periphery of the impeller toward the outer periphery, the flow that flows in from the impeller inner periphery side of the blade May cause noise and vibration to deteriorate the surrounding environment (hereinafter referred to as “risk of noise deterioration”).

(ニ)また、特許文献2に開示されたターボファンにおいて、羽根後縁部の側板側結合点が主板側結合点よりも反回転方向に所定量オフセットすることで羽根車下流側に配設された熱交換器の前面側における風速分布の均一化が向上されるが、羽根車出口での羽根後縁部の側板側に流れが集中し騒音悪化の恐れがある。
(ホ)また、羽根前縁部の側板側結合点が主板側結合点よりも回転方向へ所定量オフセットすることで、側板側結合点付近の剥離は抑制されるが、羽根前縁部の中間部位から側板側結合点までの剥離は依然として存在するため騒音低減の余地がある。
(D) Further, in the turbofan disclosed in Patent Document 2, the side plate side coupling point of the blade trailing edge is disposed downstream of the impeller by offsetting the predetermined amount in the counter-rotating direction from the main plate side coupling point. Although the uniformity of the wind speed distribution on the front side of the heat exchanger is improved, the flow concentrates on the side plate side of the trailing edge of the blade at the exit of the impeller, which may cause noise deterioration.
(E) Also, the side plate side coupling point of the blade leading edge is offset by a predetermined amount in the rotational direction from the main plate side coupling point, so that peeling near the side plate side coupling point is suppressed, but the middle of the blade leading edge There is still room for noise reduction because there is still delamination from the site to the side plate side coupling point.

(ヘ)さらに、側板側結合点が主板側結合点に対し回転方向へ傾斜し、主板表面と羽根の圧力面(反回転方向面)とは90°より小さな鋭角をなす。そのため前縁からの流入流れが主板側へ偏流し羽根後縁部の側板側に剥離領域が残存する。
(ト)さらに、側板側結合点を前縁側と後縁側で逆方向にオフセットすることで側板と溶着する側板側結合点から羽根主板側結合点は側板に対し傾斜形状となるため、特許文献1に開示されたターボファンと同様に、組立て性が悪い。
(F) Further, the side plate side coupling point is inclined in the rotation direction with respect to the main plate side coupling point, and the main plate surface and the pressure surface of the blade (counter rotation direction surface) form an acute angle smaller than 90 °. Therefore, the inflow flow from the front edge drifts to the main plate side, and a separation region remains on the side plate side of the blade trailing edge.
(G) Further, the blade main plate side coupling point is inclined with respect to the side plate from the side plate side coupling point that is welded to the side plate by offsetting the side plate side coupling point in the reverse direction on the front edge side and the rear edge side. As with the turbo fan disclosed in, the assemblability is poor.

(チ)一方、特許文献3に開示されたターボファンにおいて、羽根の前縁から後縁にわたり側板側結合点が主板側結合点に対し回転方向へずらされ、かつ、前縁側における側板側端部が回転方向側へ傾斜していることで、羽根の側板側端部および側板側結合点における吸込流れに対する剥離は抑制されるが、前縁からの流入流れが主板側へ偏流し羽根後縁部の側板側に剥離領域が残存する。
(リ)また、羽根全体が回転方向へ傾斜しているため、少なくとも側板と羽根が別体に成形後、溶着や勘合等で羽根車を一体に形成されるターボファンでは、羽根に対して側板から回転軸方向に力を加え押さえて結合するため、羽根の主板側結合点に応力が付加され、さらに羽根の側板側にうまく力が加わりづらく不安定なため、組立て性が悪い。
(H) On the other hand, in the turbofan disclosed in Patent Document 3, the side plate side coupling point is shifted in the rotational direction with respect to the main plate side coupling point from the front edge to the rear edge of the blade, and the side plate side end portion on the front edge side Is inclined to the rotational direction side, the separation of the suction flow at the side plate side end of the blade and the side plate side coupling point is suppressed, but the inflow flow from the front edge drifts to the main plate side and the blade trailing edge A peeling area remains on the side plate side of the plate.
(I) In addition, since the entire blade is inclined in the rotation direction, at least the side plate and the blade are formed separately, and then the impeller is integrally formed by welding, fitting, etc. Since a force is applied in the direction of the rotational axis from the side of the blade and the coupling is performed, stress is applied to the coupling point on the main plate side of the blade, and the force is not easily applied to the side plate side of the blade, resulting in instability.

本発明は上述のような問題点を解消するためになされたもので、羽根の前縁および側板側端部、また後縁部における剥離域の抑制を図ることによって、低騒音で、組立て性や加工性が良く、通風抵抗が付加されても性能悪化を極小に抑えることができる、ターボファンおよび当該ターボファンを搭載した空気調和機を得ることを目的とする。   The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems. By suppressing the separation area at the front edge and side plate side edge of the blade, and the rear edge, the low noise, assembling performance and An object is to obtain a turbo fan and an air conditioner equipped with the turbo fan, which have good workability and can suppress the deterioration of performance to a minimum even when ventilation resistance is added.

本発明に係るターボファンは、モータの回転軸が固定される固定部であるボスを有する円盤状の主板と、該主板と共に導風壁を形成する中心に側板開口部を具備する円環状の側板と、前記主板と前記側板とに跨って設置された複数枚の羽根と、を有するターボファンにおいて、前記羽根は、平面視において、前記羽根前縁部から前記羽根後縁部になるほど、前記回転軸から遠ざかり、反回転方向に位置するものであって、前記羽根の羽根外周面および羽根内周面は、羽根前縁部において高さ方向の中央範囲が前記回転軸に略平行であって、かつ前記羽根前縁部の前記主板に近い範囲が前記主板に近づくほど、前記主板の径方向外側に位置するように傾斜した裾野部を具備していることを有することを特徴とする。 A turbofan according to the present invention is an annular side plate having a disk-shaped main plate having a boss that is a fixed portion to which a rotating shaft of a motor is fixed, and a side plate opening at the center that forms a wind guide wall together with the main plate. And a plurality of blades installed across the main plate and the side plate, wherein the blades are rotated as the blades move from the blade leading edge to the blade trailing edge in plan view. The blade outer peripheral surface and the blade inner peripheral surface are located away from the shaft and in the counter-rotating direction, and the central range in the height direction is substantially parallel to the rotating shaft at the blade leading edge, And it has the base part inclined so that it might be located in the radial direction outer side of the said main board, so that the range close | similar to the said main board of the said blade front edge part was approached.

(i)本発明に係るターボファンは以上の構成であるから、ファン吹出口における風速分布が均一化され、ターボファンの下流側に熱交換器を有する場合、少なくともファン吹出口近傍では高さ方向で均一に流入するため、風速差による熱交換器を通過せず表面を流れる流れが抑制され圧損が低減され、低騒音化が図ることができる。
(ii)また、本発明に係る空気調和機は、ターボファン吸込口に通風可能なフィルタなどの圧損体を有しても、ターボファンの羽根前縁部における剥離が抑制され、低騒音な運転が可能になる。
(I) Since the turbo fan according to the present invention has the above-described configuration, when the wind speed distribution at the fan outlet is uniform and the heat exchanger is provided on the downstream side of the turbo fan, the height direction is at least in the vicinity of the fan outlet. Therefore, the flow through the surface without passing through the heat exchanger due to the difference in wind speed is suppressed, the pressure loss is reduced, and the noise can be reduced.
(Ii) In addition, the air conditioner according to the present invention has a pressure loss body such as a filter that can ventilate the turbofan suction port, so that separation at the blade leading edge portion of the turbofan is suppressed and operation with low noise is performed. Is possible.

In FIG. 1, a ceiling-embedded air conditioner (hereinafter referred to as “air conditioner”) 10 is installed in a state of being embedded in a rectangular hole formed in a ceiling 21 of a room 20. That is, the air conditioner 10 is a box having an opening on the lower side, and has an upper top plate 10a and a side plate 10b disposed on the lower side facing the top plate 10a. At this time, the side plate 10b has a side plate opening (communicating with the main body suction port 10c) in the center, and the lower end is located on the substantially same plane as the ceiling 21, so the opening of the air conditioner 10 is also Further, it is located on substantially the same plane as the ceiling 21.

さらに、側板10bの下端部および天井21の矩形孔を覆うように、平面視で略四角形状の化粧パネル11が、部屋20に面して側板10bまたは天井21に取り付けられている。また、化粧パネル11の中央付近には空気調和機10への空気の吸込口である吸込グリル11aと吸込グリル11a通過後の空気を除塵するフィルタ12、化粧パネル11の各辺に沿って形成されたパネル吹出口11bを有し、さらに各パネル吹出口11bには風向ベーン13を備えられている。   Furthermore, a substantially rectangular decorative panel 11 in plan view is attached to the side plate 10b or the ceiling 21 so as to cover the lower end of the side plate 10b and the rectangular hole of the ceiling 21 in plan view. Near the center of the decorative panel 11, a suction grill 11a that is an air inlet to the air conditioner 10, a filter 12 that removes air after passing through the suction grill 11a, and each side of the decorative panel 11 are formed. The panel outlet 11b is further provided with a wind vane 13 at each panel outlet 11b.

また、空気調和機10の内部にはターボファン1と、ターボファンの吸込風路を形成するベルマウス14と、ターボファン1を回転駆動するファンモータ15と、吸い込まれた室内空気(以下「吸込空気」と称す)との間で熱交換する熱交換器16と、がそれぞれ配置されている。このとき、熱交換器16は平面視で略C字形状に形成されたものであって、ターボファン1の外周側を囲むように立設され、接続配管によって図示しない室外機と接続されている。
また、空気調和機10の中央部には本体吸込口10cが形成され、本体吸込口10cの周囲には本体吹出口10dが形成されている。このとき、本体吸込口10cは化粧パネル11の吸込グリル11aに連通し、本体吹出口10dは化粧パネル11のパネル吹出口11bに連通している。
Further, inside the air conditioner 10, the turbo fan 1, a bell mouth 14 that forms a suction air passage of the turbo fan, a fan motor 15 that rotationally drives the turbo fan 1, and sucked room air (hereinafter “suction”). Heat exchangers 16 that exchange heat with each other are arranged. At this time, the heat exchanger 16 is formed in a substantially C shape in a plan view, is erected so as to surround the outer peripheral side of the turbofan 1, and is connected to an outdoor unit (not shown) by a connection pipe. .
Moreover, the main body inlet 10c is formed in the center part of the air conditioner 10, and the main body outlet 10d is formed around the main body inlet 10c. At this time, the main body suction port 10 c communicates with the suction grille 11 a of the decorative panel 11, and the main body outlet 10 d communicates with the panel outlet 11 b of the decorative panel 11.

このように構成された空気調和機10により、ターボファン1が回転すると部屋20の空気が化粧パネル11の吸込グリル11aを通過し、フィルタ12を通過し除塵され、さらに、本体吸込口10cおよびベルマウス14を通過後ターボファン1に吸込まれる。その後、熱交換器16へ向け吹出される。そして熱交換器16において暖房、冷房等の熱交換や除湿がされた空気は、本体吹出口10dを経由してパネル吹出口11bから部屋20に向けて、風向ベーン13により風向制御されながら吹き出される。よって、部屋20の空気調和(以下「空調」と称する場合がある)が行われる。   When the turbo fan 1 rotates by the air conditioner 10 configured in this way, the air in the room 20 passes through the suction grille 11a of the decorative panel 11, passes through the filter 12, and is removed, and further, the main body inlet 10c and the bell After passing through the mouse 14, it is sucked into the turbofan 1. Then, it blows out toward the heat exchanger 16. Then, air that has been subjected to heat exchange or dehumidification such as heating or cooling in the heat exchanger 16 is blown out from the panel blower outlet 11b toward the room 20 through the main body blower outlet 10d while being controlled by the wind direction vane 13. The Therefore, air conditioning of the room 20 (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “air conditioning”) is performed.

図2〜図5において、ターボファン1は、断面略山形の回転体(円盤)である主板2と、主板2の周縁部に対向して配置された断面略円弧状の円環である側板3と、主板2と側板3とに跨って配置された複数枚の羽根4と、が一体的に成形されたものである。
すなわち、主板2は中心(断面略山形の凸部)に、ファンモータ15の回転軸Oとの固定部であるボス2aが形成されている。したがって、回転軸Oは、高さ方向に平行で、水平方向に垂直である。
2 to 5, a turbofan 1 includes a main plate 2 that is a rotating body (disk) having a substantially chevron-shaped cross section, and a side plate 3 that is a ring having a substantially arc-shaped cross section that is disposed to face the peripheral edge of the main plate 2. And a plurality of blades 4 disposed across the main plate 2 and the side plate 3 are integrally formed.
In other words, the main plate 2 is formed with a boss 2a, which is a fixed portion to the rotation axis O of the fan motor 15, at the center (a convex portion having a substantially mountain-shaped cross section). Therefore, the rotation axis O is parallel to the height direction and perpendicular to the horizontal direction.

円環である側板3は、中央の側板開口部がファン吸込口1aを形成している。また、主板2の周縁部(断面略山形の裾野部)と側板3とが導風壁となって、これらによって囲まれた空間がファン吹出口1bを形成している。すなわち、図1において、主板2の周縁部の断面および側板3の断面は、何れも外周に向かって高い位置になるため、上昇した(図2〜図12は上下を反転しているから、下向きの矢印で示されている)後に、水平方向で外周に向かう風流れが形成されることになる。   The side plate 3 that is a ring has a central side plate opening that forms a fan suction port 1a. Moreover, the peripheral part (substantially mountain-shaped base part of the cross section) of the main plate 2 and the side plate 3 serve as a wind guide wall, and a space surrounded by these forms a fan outlet 1b. That is, in FIG. 1, since the cross section of the peripheral part of the main plate 2 and the cross section of the side plate 3 are both higher toward the outer periphery, they have risen (since FIGS. After that, a wind flow toward the outer periphery is formed in the horizontal direction.

(羽根の配置)
羽根4は、平面視において、羽根前縁部4aから羽根後縁部4eになるほど、回転軸0から遠ざかるものであって、羽根4の側板3に近い端縁が、羽根後縁部4eに近い範囲(4ec4〜4g1)において前記側板に接合され、羽根前縁部4aに近い範囲(4g1〜4a3)において側板3から離れて側板開口部に位置している。そして、羽根4は、主板2から離れて側板3に近づく程、羽根4の回転軸Oと直交する水平断面における肉厚t(羽根外周面と羽根内周面との距離に同じ)が、徐々に薄くなり、内部に空洞を有し主板2の羽根車外方に開口をもつ中空構造になっている。
(Arrangement of feathers)
In the plan view, the blade 4 moves away from the rotation axis 0 as the blade leading edge portion 4a becomes the blade trailing edge portion 4e, and the edge near the side plate 3 of the blade 4 is close to the blade trailing edge portion 4e. In the range (4ec4-4g1), it is joined to the side plate, and in the range (4g1-4a3) close to the blade leading edge 4a, it is separated from the side plate 3 and located in the side plate opening. As the blade 4 moves away from the main plate 2 and approaches the side plate 3, the thickness t (same as the distance between the blade outer peripheral surface and the blade inner peripheral surface) in the horizontal cross section orthogonal to the rotation axis O of the blade 4 gradually increases. The hollow structure has a hollow inside and an opening outside the impeller of the main plate 2.

(羽根後縁部)
図5において、羽根4の羽根後縁部4eは、主板2の外周縁と側板3の外周縁とを結ぶ仮想円筒上に位置し、該仮想円筒上において少なくとも2以上の変曲点を具備する波状を呈している。すなわち、水平そり線C1と羽根後縁部4eとの交点は高さ方向で、主板側結合点である交点4ec1に対して、ファン吹出口1bの中央より主板2側の所定位置で回転方向に凸状に回転方向へ湾曲する主板側湾曲点である交点4ec2と、ファン吹出口1bの中央より側板3側の凹状に回転方向と逆へ湾曲する側板側湾曲点である交点4ec3と、側板3の側板側結合点である交点4ec4とを示している。
換言すると、主板側結合点4ec1と側板側結合点4ec4を結ぶ直線Gは、回転軸Oと平行に主板2および側板3の近傍では直立形状を呈し、主板側湾曲点4ec2と側板側湾曲点4ec3との間では主板2側が側板3側に対し回転方向Aに傾斜し、羽根後縁部4eが略S字形状となるように形成されていることになる。
(Blade trailing edge)
In FIG. 5, the blade trailing edge 4 e of the blade 4 is located on a virtual cylinder connecting the outer peripheral edge of the main plate 2 and the outer peripheral edge of the side plate 3, and has at least two or more inflection points on the virtual cylinder. It is wavy. That is, the intersection of the horizontal warp line C1 and the blade trailing edge 4e is in the height direction, and the rotation point is at a predetermined position on the main plate 2 side from the center of the fan outlet 1b with respect to the intersection 4ec1 which is the main plate side coupling point. Intersection 4ec2 which is a main plate side bending point which is curved in the rotational direction in a convex manner, intersection 4ec3 which is a side plate side bending point which is curved in a concave shape on the side plate 3 side from the center of the fan outlet 1b, and the side plate 3 The intersection 4ec4 which is a side plate side coupling point is shown.
In other words, the straight line G connecting the main plate side coupling point 4ec1 and the side plate side coupling point 4ec4 has an upright shape in the vicinity of the main plate 2 and the side plate 3 parallel to the rotation axis O, and the main plate side bending point 4ec2 and the side plate side bending point 4ec3. The main plate 2 side is inclined in the rotation direction A with respect to the side plate 3 side, and the blade trailing edge 4e is formed in a substantially S shape.

このとき、羽根後縁部4eは、主板2の外周縁と側板3の外周縁とを結ぶ仮想円筒面に位置し、主板側結合点4ec1と側板側結合点4ec4を結ぶ直線Gは、回転軸Oと平行で、主板2の外縁部の面に垂直(法線に垂直の同じ)である。
また、羽根後縁部4eは、側板3近傍では側板3の法線に平行になるような形状である。さらに、主板側湾曲部の回転方向A側への最大突出位置である主板側湾曲点4ec2と、側板側湾曲部の回転方向Aの反対方向への最大突出位置である側板側湾曲点4ec3との間では、主板2に近づくほど回転方向Aに突出するから、側面視において傾斜し、略S字形状になっている。
At this time, the blade trailing edge 4e is located on a virtual cylindrical surface connecting the outer peripheral edge of the main plate 2 and the outer peripheral edge of the side plate 3, and a straight line G connecting the main plate side coupling point 4ec1 and the side plate side coupling point 4ec4 is a rotation axis. Parallel to O and perpendicular to the surface of the outer edge of the main plate 2 (same as normal to the normal).
Further, the blade trailing edge 4 e is shaped so as to be parallel to the normal line of the side plate 3 in the vicinity of the side plate 3. Furthermore, the main plate side bending point 4ec2 which is the maximum protruding position of the main plate side bending portion in the rotation direction A side and the side plate side bending point 4ec3 which is the maximum protruding position of the side plate side bending portion in the direction opposite to the rotation direction A. In between, since it protrudes in the rotation direction A as it approaches the main plate 2, it is inclined in a side view and has a substantially S shape.

したがって、吸込空気は、羽根の外周面4bにおいては、主板側湾曲点4ec2によりファン吹出口1bの高さ方向主板2側と中央部側とに分流され、主板2側への流れの集中を防止している。また、主板側湾曲点4ec2と側板側湾曲点4ec3の間の傾斜部4e5により側板3方向へ力がかかり流れを誘導する。さらに、側板側湾曲点4ec3から側板側結合点4ec4は、羽根内周面4cにおいて羽根4の前縁側板側端部4a1の側板側結合点4g周辺から流入した流れをファン吹出口1bの側板3側へ導風している。   Accordingly, the intake air is divided into the height direction main plate 2 side and the central portion side of the fan outlet 1b by the main plate side curved point 4ec2 on the outer peripheral surface 4b of the blade, thereby preventing the concentration of the flow to the main plate 2 side. doing. Further, a force is applied in the direction of the side plate 3 by the inclined portion 4e5 between the main plate side bending point 4ec2 and the side plate side bending point 4ec3 to induce the flow. Further, the side plate side bending point 4ec3 to the side plate side coupling point 4ec4 are the side plate 3 of the fan outlet 1b that flows from the periphery of the side plate side coupling point 4g of the front edge side plate side end portion 4a1 of the blade 4 on the blade inner peripheral surface 4c. The wind is guided to the side.

A vertical cross section perpendicular to the chord line D in the vicinity of the front edge inner peripheral end 4a2 is referred to as “K1-K1 cross section”, and the blade 4 in the K1-K1 cross section is illustrated in FIG. Further, a vertical section perpendicular to the chord line D at the rotation direction front end portion 4g1 of the side plate side coupling portion (same as the boundary between the joining range and the range located at the side plate opening) is referred to as “K2-K2 cross section”, and K2-K2 The blade 4 in cross section is shown in FIG.
11 and 12, the thickness center line in the height direction of the blade 4 in the K1-K1 cross section and the K2-K2 cross section (same as the center of the blade outer peripheral surface and the blade inner peripheral surface) is expressed as “vertical sled line”. C12 ”, and the angle between the vertical sled line C12 and the rotation axis O in the blade leading edge tip portion 4a3 (K1-K1 cross section) and the side plate joint portion 4g1 (K2-K2 cross section) are respectively“ curved angle ε1 ”and“ The bending angle ε2 ”.

図2、図11および図12において、羽根4の側板3に近い端縁の側板3から離れている範囲(側板開口部に位置する範囲に同じ)において、平面視において羽根前縁部4aに近づくほど径方向外方に位置するように湾曲し、側面視において湾曲範囲が羽根前縁部4aに近づくほど端縁から遠ざかるように拡大している。
すなわち、羽根前縁側板側端部4a1および前縁内周側端部4a2の側板3側は、側板側結合部4gの羽根外周面における回転方向先端部4g1を支点、羽根前縁先端部4a3を力点として、湾曲角度εが羽根車内周側へ向かう(羽根前縁部4aに近づくに同じ)につれて、大きくなるように径方向外方へ湾曲している。
2, 11, and 12, the blade 4 approaches the blade leading edge 4 a in plan view in a range away from the side plate 3 at the end edge close to the side plate 3 of the blade 4 (same as the range located in the side plate opening). It is curved so as to be located outward in the radial direction, and in a side view, the curved range is enlarged so as to be farther from the edge as it approaches the blade leading edge 4a.
That is, on the side plate 3 side of the blade leading edge side plate side end 4a1 and the leading edge inner peripheral side end 4a2, the rotational direction tip 4g1 on the blade outer peripheral surface of the side plate side coupling portion 4g is used as a fulcrum, and the blade leading edge tip 4a3 is used. As a power point, as the bending angle ε moves toward the inner peripheral side of the impeller (same as approaching the blade leading edge 4a), it is curved radially outward so as to increase.

そのため、側面視において、湾曲範囲が略三角形状に形成されるから、羽根4の外周面4bには回転方向先端部4g1から前縁内周側端部4a2へ向けて、徐々に主板2側へ向かう斜め状の「折り曲げ線B」が生成されている。
さらに、図4および図11のように、羽根前縁部4aの主板2側の羽根の外周面4bが、径方向外方へ湾曲するように羽根肉厚Tが徐々に厚く、かつ垂直そり線C12も径方向外方へ湾曲している。
Therefore, since the curved range is formed in a substantially triangular shape in a side view, the outer peripheral surface 4b of the blade 4 is gradually moved toward the main plate 2 from the front end portion 4g1 in the rotational direction toward the front end inner peripheral end portion 4a2. A diagonal “folding line B” is generated.
Further, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 11, the blade wall thickness T is gradually increased so that the outer peripheral surface 4b of the blade on the main plate 2 side of the blade leading edge 4a is curved radially outward, and the vertical sled line is formed. C12 is also curved outward in the radial direction.

また、図12に示すK2−K2断面では、羽根の外周面4bは主板2の外縁部の面に対して略垂直であって、羽根内周面4cの側板3側のみが径方向外方へ湾曲し、羽根4は全体として主板2から側板3へむけて(高い位置になるにつれ)肉厚が薄くなりながら略直立した形態を呈している。
そして、図6〜図10の各断面に示す鋭角の入口角β11、β12、β13、β14は、「β14<β11」であって、さらに、高さ方向中央部のβ12、β13は少なくともβ11、β14より大きくなる(β12>β11、β13>β14)ように、径方向内方において羽根前縁先端部4a3から側板3にかけては徐々に入口角β1が拡大し、羽根前縁先端部4a3の入口角β14が最も小さくなるように形成されている。
以上のように少なくとも羽根前縁部4aは内周側からの側面視において、羽根の外周面4bの側板4a1側および主板2側が、回転方向Aに対し凹形状を成し、羽根内周面4cは径方向外方へ湾曲した形状に形成されている。
In the K2-K2 cross section shown in FIG. 12, the outer peripheral surface 4b of the blade is substantially perpendicular to the surface of the outer edge portion of the main plate 2, and only the side plate 3 side of the inner peripheral surface 4c of the blade is radially outward. The blades 4 are curved, and as a whole, the blades 4 are substantially upright from the main plate 2 toward the side plates 3 (as they become higher) while being reduced in thickness.
The acute entrance angles β11, β12, β13, and β14 shown in the cross sections of FIGS. 6 to 10 are “β14 <β11”, and β12 and β13 at the center in the height direction are at least β11 and β14. In order to become larger (β12> β11, β13> β14), the inlet angle β1 gradually increases from the blade leading edge tip 4a3 to the side plate 3 radially inward, and the inlet angle β14 of the blade leading edge tip 4a3. Is formed to be the smallest.
As described above, at least the blade leading edge 4a has a concave shape with respect to the rotational direction A in the side plate 4a1 side and the main plate 2 side of the blade outer peripheral surface 4b in a side view from the inner peripheral side, and the blade inner peripheral surface 4c. Is formed in a shape curved radially outward.

(作用・効果)
ターボファン1は以上のような構成であるから、図2に示すように、ファンモータ15により回転方向Aに回転された際、ファン吸込口1aから吸い込んだ室内空気(吸込空気に同じ)を、羽根4を通過した後、ファン吹出口1bから略放射状に吹き出すことになる。このとき、以下の作用、効果を奏する。
(Action / Effect)
Since the turbo fan 1 is configured as described above, as shown in FIG. 2, when it is rotated in the rotation direction A by the fan motor 15, the indoor air sucked from the fan suction port 1a (same as the sucked air) After passing through the blades 4, the air is blown out substantially radially from the fan outlet 1b. At this time, the following operations and effects are achieved.

(i)ファン吹出口1bにおける風速分布は均一化される。その結果、ターボファン1の下流側に熱交換器16を有する場合、少なくともファン吹出口1b近傍では高さ方向で均一に流入するため、風速差による熱交換器16を通過せず表面を流れる2次流れが抑制され圧損が低減でき、低騒音化が図れる(図1参照)。
また、羽根後縁部4eの主板2および側板3近傍は直立しているので、従来のターボファンのように主板2、側板3に対し羽根後縁部4eが傾斜しているものに比べ、溶着組立て時に回転軸Oに平行した力が正確に加えられ、羽根4の逃げによる溶着不具合が抑制されることになる。
(I) The wind speed distribution at the fan outlet 1b is made uniform. As a result, when the heat exchanger 16 is provided on the downstream side of the turbofan 1, it flows uniformly over the height direction at least in the vicinity of the fan outlet 1b, so that it flows on the surface without passing through the heat exchanger 16 due to the wind speed difference. The next flow is suppressed, pressure loss can be reduced, and noise can be reduced (see FIG. 1).
Further, since the vicinity of the main plate 2 and the side plate 3 of the blade trailing edge portion 4e is upright, the blade trailing edge portion 4e is welded compared to the main plate 2 and the side plate 3 that are inclined with respect to the main plate 2 and the side plate 3 as in the conventional turbofan. A force parallel to the rotation axis O is accurately applied at the time of assembly, and a welding failure due to the escape of the blade 4 is suppressed.

(ii)さらに、主板側湾曲点4ec2と側板側湾曲点4ec3の間の傾斜部4e5と、回転軸Oとの平行線Gとのなす傾斜角度である「後縁傾斜角度α2」を、「10°〜30°」にしている。そのため、ファン吹出口1bにおいて、羽根の外周面4bの側板3側へ流れが集中し過ぎない。また、羽根内周面4cの側板3側では、羽根の羽根前縁部側板側4a1から流入してきた流れも集中し過ぎない。よって、後縁傾斜角度αと同一風量時の騒音値との関係のように低騒音となる(図13参照)。   (Ii) Further, a “rear edge inclination angle α2”, which is an inclination angle formed by the inclined portion 4e5 between the main plate side bending point 4ec2 and the side plate side bending point 4ec3, and the parallel line G to the rotation axis O, is set to “10 ° to 30 ° ". Therefore, in the fan blower outlet 1b, a flow does not concentrate too much to the side plate 3 side of the outer peripheral surface 4b of the blade. Further, on the side plate 3 side of the blade inner peripheral surface 4c, the flow flowing in from the blade front edge side plate side 4a1 of the blade does not concentrate too much. Therefore, the noise becomes low as in the relationship between the trailing edge inclination angle α and the noise value at the same air volume (see FIG. 13).

(iii)また、図10の平面視で羽根車回転中心(回転軸に同じ)Oと主板側湾曲点4ec2、側板側湾曲点4ec3を結ぶ直線がなす周方向湾曲角度γを「5°〜15°」にしている。したがって、ファン吹出口1bの下流側に熱交換器16が配設された場合、ターボファン1が回転し羽根後縁部4eが熱交換器16へ接近し、局所的に通風抵抗が増加しても、風流れは分散される。また、後縁傾斜角度αの効果と同様に、ファン吹出口1bにおける羽根の外周面4bの側板3側へ流れが集中し過ぎず、羽根内周面4cの側板3側で羽根4の羽根前縁部側板側4a1から流入してきた流れも集中し過ぎないことにより、周方向湾曲角度γと同一風量時の騒音値との関係のように低騒音となる(図14参照)。   (Iii) Further, in the plan view of FIG. 10, the circumferential curve angle γ formed by the straight line connecting the impeller rotation center (same as the rotation axis) O, the main plate side curve point 4ec2, and the side plate side curve point 4ec3 is set to “5 ° to 15”. ° ”. Therefore, when the heat exchanger 16 is disposed on the downstream side of the fan outlet 1b, the turbo fan 1 rotates, the blade trailing edge 4e approaches the heat exchanger 16, and the ventilation resistance increases locally. However, the wind flow is dispersed. Similarly to the effect of the trailing edge inclination angle α, the flow does not concentrate too much on the side plate 3 side of the outer peripheral surface 4b of the blade at the fan outlet 1b, and the front side of the blade 4 on the side plate 3 side of the inner peripheral surface 4c of the blade. Since the flow flowing in from the edge side plate side 4a1 does not concentrate too much, the noise becomes low as in the relationship between the circumferential curve angle γ and the noise value at the same air volume (see FIG. 14).

(iv)そして、回転軸に直交する平面における羽根の各断面図において、羽根後縁部の回転方向Aに対し、主板側湾曲点4ec2における出口角β22と、側板側湾曲点4ec3における出口角β23との差である「角度差△β2」は「20〜35°」の間になっている。したがって、空気調和機10において、ファン吹出側に配設された熱交換器16(通風可能な圧損体である平面視で略C字形状)とファン吹出口1bとの距離が周方向で変化しても、羽根後縁部4eが凹凸に湾曲する略S字形状に形成されているため、該略S字形状よって空気流れが規制される。
このため、従来ではファン1と熱交換器16が近い領域ではファン吹出口1bの主板2側に流れが集中し、側板3側で剥離が大きく騒音悪化が大きかったが、本発明では風速分布の変化が小さく騒音の発生が抑えられる(これについては、「出口角度差△β2と同一風量時の騒音値との関係」を示す図15参照)。
(Iv) And in each sectional view of the blade in the plane orthogonal to the rotation axis, the exit angle β22 at the main plate side bending point 4ec2 and the exit angle β23 at the side plate side bending point 4ec3 with respect to the rotation direction A of the blade trailing edge. The “angle difference Δβ2”, which is a difference from the above, is between “20 to 35 °”. Therefore, in the air conditioner 10, the distance between the heat exchanger 16 (on the fan blowing side, which is a substantially C-shaped in a plan view, which is a pressure loss body capable of passing air) and the fan outlet 1b varies in the circumferential direction. However, since the blade trailing edge portion 4e is formed in a substantially S-shape that curves unevenly, the air flow is regulated by the substantially S-shape.
For this reason, conventionally, in the region where the fan 1 and the heat exchanger 16 are close to each other, the flow is concentrated on the main plate 2 side of the fan outlet 1b, and the separation is large on the side plate 3 side and the noise deterioration is large. The change is small and the generation of noise is suppressed (refer to FIG. 15 showing “relationship between outlet angle difference Δβ2 and noise value at the same air flow”).

(v)そして、羽根前縁部4aにおいて、空気が流入する際、中心側(回転軸O)からの側面視で外周面4bの側板3側および主板2側が、回転方向Aに対し凹形状に湾曲しているため、羽根4の前縁内周側端部4a2の側板3側および羽根の外周面4bの側板側誘引部4b1(前縁側板側端部4a1が径方向外方へ湾曲されている)では、吸込空気が外周面4bに衝突することなく乱れが抑制され、さらに、滑らかに導入される。
したがって、ファン回転数が同一である時の送風量を増加することができ、空気調和機10の熱交換に必要な送風量に対し、ファン回転数を低下することができるため、低騒音化することができると共に、ファンの回転駆動を低トルク化することができ、モータの消費電力を低減することが可能である。
(V) When air flows in at the blade leading edge portion 4a, the side plate 3 side and the main plate 2 side of the outer peripheral surface 4b are concave with respect to the rotation direction A in a side view from the center side (rotary axis O). Since it is curved, the side plate 3 side of the front edge inner peripheral side end portion 4a2 of the blade 4 and the side plate side attracting portion 4b1 (front edge side plate side end portion 4a1 of the outer peripheral surface 4b of the blade are curved radially outward. In this case, the turbulence is suppressed without the intake air colliding with the outer peripheral surface 4b, and the air is introduced smoothly.
Therefore, it is possible to increase the air flow rate when the fan rotation speed is the same, and to reduce the fan rotation speed with respect to the air flow required for heat exchange of the air conditioner 10, thereby reducing noise. In addition, the rotational drive of the fan can be reduced in torque, and the power consumption of the motor can be reduced.

(vi)また、羽根前縁部4aの羽根の外周面4bの主板2側が径方向外方に湾曲しているため、ボス2aより主板2の表面を通過してきた流れを、羽根高さ方向中央へ向け、前縁内周側端部4a2から流入した流れと共に、主板2側への流れの集中を抑制する。
また、羽根4へ流れが衝突することなく滑らかに羽根の外周面4bへ導入され乱れが抑制される。
その結果、従来ファン吹出口の主板側へ集中していた風速分布に対し、側板側の剥離抑制と主板側への集中回避によって吹出風速分布が均一化され、かつ低騒音化を図ることができる。
(Vi) Since the main plate 2 side of the outer peripheral surface 4b of the blade at the blade leading edge 4a is curved radially outward, the flow passing through the surface of the main plate 2 from the boss 2a Concentration of the flow toward the main plate 2 side is suppressed together with the flow flowing in from the front edge inner peripheral side end 4a2.
Further, the flow is smoothly introduced into the outer peripheral surface 4b of the blade without colliding with the blade 4, and the disturbance is suppressed.
As a result, compared to the conventional wind speed distribution concentrated on the main plate side of the fan outlet, the blown wind speed distribution can be made uniform and the noise can be reduced by suppressing separation on the side plate side and avoiding concentration on the main plate side. .

(vii)また、羽根前縁部4aの羽根内周面4cの側板3側が、径方向外方へ傾斜し且つ、湾曲するように形成したものであるため、羽根内周面4cの吸込空気が、かかる傾斜した湾曲面に沿い、滑らかに羽根後縁部4eへ向け流れる。したがって、従来のターボファンにおいて側板3近傍で生じていた剥離が、抑制されるため低騒音化を図ることができる。   (Vii) Since the side plate 3 side of the blade inner peripheral surface 4c of the blade leading edge 4a is formed to be inclined radially outward and curved, the intake air of the blade inner peripheral surface 4c is Then, it smoothly flows toward the blade trailing edge 4e along the inclined curved surface. Therefore, since the peeling that has occurred in the vicinity of the side plate 3 in the conventional turbofan is suppressed, the noise can be reduced.

(viii)そして、側板側結合部4gの羽根の外周面4bにおける回転方向先端部4g1を支点、羽根前縁先端部4a3を力点として、羽根の主板側端部4dの水平断面での弦線Dに直交する縦断面図において、「湾曲角度ε(垂直そり線C12が回転軸Oと平行な直線とのなす角度に同じ)」が、羽根車内周側へ向かうにつれて大きくなるように、径方向外方へ湾曲している。つまり、羽根4の前縁内周側端部4a2の側板3側と前縁側板側端部4a1とが、羽根4の羽根外周面(回転方向面に同じ)4bに向けて(側板側結合部の回転方向先端4g1から前縁内周側端部4a2へ向けて)、徐々に主板2側へ向かう折り曲げ線B(斜め状、図2参照)が生成されるように径方向外方へ湾曲している。
そのため、従来の回転軸Oに直交する水平線を起点に湾曲したものに比べ、羽根4の前縁内周側端部4a2の側板3側における流入量と、前縁側板側端部4a1における流入量との差が縮小される。
(Viii) The chord line D in the horizontal section of the main plate side end 4d of the blade, with the tip 4g1 in the rotational direction on the outer peripheral surface 4b of the blade of the side plate side coupling portion 4g as a fulcrum and the blade leading edge tip 4a3 as a power point. In the longitudinal cross-sectional view orthogonal to the "circular angle ε (the same as the angle formed by the vertical warp line C12 and a straight line parallel to the rotation axis O)" is increased radially outwardly toward the impeller inner peripheral side. Is curving towards. That is, the side plate 3 side and the front edge side plate side end portion 4a1 of the front edge inner peripheral side end portion 4a2 of the blade 4 are directed toward the blade outer peripheral surface (same as the rotation direction surface) 4b of the blade 4 (side plate side coupling portion). ) In the radial direction so that a fold line B (oblique, see FIG. 2) gradually toward the main plate 2 side is generated. ing.
Therefore, compared to a conventional curved line starting from a horizontal line perpendicular to the rotation axis O, the inflow amount on the side plate 3 side of the front edge inner peripheral side end portion 4a2 of the blade 4 and the inflow amount on the front edge side plate side end portion 4a1. And the difference is reduced.

(ix)また、羽根前縁先端部4a3を頂点にして、前縁内周側端部4a2および前縁側板側端部4a1が略三角状に連設していることで、羽根前縁先端部4a3を中心に前縁内周側端部4a2および前縁側板側端部4a1において生じる縦渦が均一化され、羽根内周面4c上へ空気が誘引されることで安定する。したがって、空気調和機10(図1参照)に搭載した時のように、フィルタ12(ファン吸込口1a側へ配設される通風可能な圧損体である)にホコリが堆積して、通風抵抗が増加した場合であっても、空気流れの剥離が生じ難く、騒音悪化を小さく抑えることができる。   (Ix) Further, the leading edge of the blade leading edge 4a3 and the leading edge inner peripheral side edge 4a2 and the leading edge side plate side edge 4a1 are connected in a substantially triangular shape, so that the leading edge of the blade leading edge The vertical vortex generated at the front edge inner peripheral side end 4a2 and the front edge side plate side end 4a1 is made uniform with 4a3 as the center, and the air is attracted onto the blade inner peripheral surface 4c and stabilized. Accordingly, dust is deposited on the filter 12 (which is a pressure-dissipating body that can be ventilated disposed on the fan suction port 1a side) as when mounted on the air conditioner 10 (see FIG. 1), and the ventilation resistance is reduced. Even if it is increased, separation of the air flow hardly occurs, and noise deterioration can be suppressed to a small level.

(x)図16は「通風抵抗比に対する騒音値」と湾曲角度εとの関係図であって、羽根前縁先端部4a3の湾曲角度εが、湾曲角度εにおける場合と同一風量時におけるものである。すなわち、吸込側へ配設されたフィルタへホコリが堆積した時の値に対する、ホコリが堆積していない時の値との比率である「通風抵抗比に対する騒音値」の関係図である。そして、図16に示すように、「ε1=25°〜45°」の範囲であれば、ファン吸込口1aでの通風抵抗が変化しても剥離しづらく低騒音なターボファン、および空気調和機が得られる。   (X) FIG. 16 is a relationship diagram between the “noise value with respect to the draft resistance ratio” and the bending angle ε, and the bending angle ε of the blade leading edge tip 4a3 is the same as that at the bending angle ε. is there. That is, it is a relationship diagram of “noise value with respect to ventilation resistance ratio” that is a ratio of a value when dust is accumulated on a filter disposed on the suction side to a value when dust is not accumulated. And as shown in FIG. 16, if it is the range of "(epsilon) 1 = 25 degrees-45 degrees", even if the ventilation resistance in the fan inlet 1a changes, it will be hard to peel off, and the low noise turbo fan and air conditioner Is obtained.

(xi)さらに、図12のように、羽根4は主板2から側板3へ向けファン高さ方向で肉厚Tが薄くなり、主板2の羽根車外方に開口2bをもつ中空構造のため、ターボファンの軽量化が図られている。そのため、ファンモータ起動時に、ボス2aへかかる起動トルクを小さくすることができ、ねじれが抑制されるから、ターボファン1の耐久性が向上する。   (Xi) Further, as shown in FIG. 12, the blade 4 has a hollow structure in which the wall thickness T decreases from the main plate 2 toward the side plate 3 in the fan height direction and the main plate 2 has an opening 2b outside the impeller. The weight of the fan is reduced. Therefore, when the fan motor is started, the starting torque applied to the boss 2a can be reduced and the twist is suppressed, so that the durability of the turbo fan 1 is improved.

(xii)そして、羽根4は、図6に示す縦断面K1−K1(羽根羽根の主板側端部4dの水平断面における弦線Dに直交する羽根4の側板側結合部の回転方向先端部4g1を含む縦断面)および、その下流側の羽根後縁部4eへ向かう所定範囲は、何れも主板2に対して回転軸Oと平行に略直立するように形成されている。そのため、羽根4と側板3を溶着し一体とするために回転軸Oと平行方向に、側板3を羽根4に押さえつける際、従来の羽根が主板2に対し傾斜している場合に生じる「羽根の主板側端部4dにおける応力集中」が抑制され、羽根4の座屈が防止され、組上げがし易く生産信頼性を高めることが可能になる。   (Xii) Then, the blade 4 has a longitudinal section K1-K1 shown in FIG. 6 (rotational tip 4g1 of the side plate side coupling portion of the blade 4 perpendicular to the chord line D in the horizontal section of the main plate side end 4d of the blade blade). And a predetermined range toward the blade trailing edge 4e on the downstream side thereof are formed so as to be substantially upright with respect to the main plate 2 in parallel with the rotation axis O. Therefore, when the side plate 3 is pressed against the blade 4 in the direction parallel to the rotation axis O in order to weld the blade 4 and the side plate 3 together, the conventional blade is inclined with respect to the main plate 2. “Stress concentration at the main plate side end portion 4d” is suppressed, buckling of the blades 4 is prevented, assembly is easy, and production reliability can be improved.

(xiii)そして、回転軸Oに直交する平面における羽根4の各断面図における入口角β1について、羽根前縁先端部4a3における入口角β14が羽根前縁部4aの中で最も小さくなっている。そして、前縁内周側端部4a2における羽根車高さ方向中央付近での入口角β1は、少なくとも前記主板側での入口角β11、羽根前縁先端部での入口角β14より大きくなるように径方向内方に形成されている。すなわち、「β1>β11>β14」の関係になっている。
また、羽根4の前縁側板側端部4a1において、羽根前縁先端部4a3から側板側結合部4gにかけて徐々に入口角β1が拡大するように形成したものであるから、前縁内周側端部4a2における回転軸Oと直交する水平断面上の「吸込流れJ」と入口角β1との角度差である「入射角δ」を小さくすることができ、吸引空気を剥離が小さく滑らかに誘引することができ、低騒音化を図ることができる。
(Xiii) With respect to the entrance angle β1 in each cross-sectional view of the blade 4 in the plane orthogonal to the rotation axis O, the entrance angle β14 at the blade leading edge tip 4a3 is the smallest in the blade leading edge 4a. The inlet angle β1 near the center of the impeller height direction at the front edge inner peripheral end 4a2 is larger than at least the inlet angle β11 at the main plate side and the inlet angle β14 at the front end of the blade front edge. It is formed radially inward. That is, the relation of “β1>β11> β14” is established.
In addition, the leading edge side plate end 4a1 of the blade 4 is formed so that the inlet angle β1 gradually increases from the blade leading edge tip 4a3 to the side plate coupling portion 4g. It is possible to reduce the “incident angle δ”, which is an angle difference between the “suction flow J” on the horizontal section orthogonal to the rotation axis O in the portion 4a2 and the entrance angle β1, and attract the suction air smoothly with little separation. And noise reduction can be achieved.

(xiv)また、羽根前縁先端部4a3から前縁側板側端部4a1の側板側結合部4gまでは、ファン吸込口1a側への傾斜部で径方向に吸込流れを径方向へ誘引し、入口角βを徐々に拡大させることで、さらに径方向へ誘引させ、側板3側の剥離を抑制し、ファン吹出口1bにおける風速分布を均一化することができる。   (Xiv) Also, from the blade leading edge tip 4a3 to the side plate side coupling portion 4g of the leading edge side plate side end 4a1, the suction flow is induced in the radial direction at the inclined portion toward the fan suction port 1a, By gradually increasing the inlet angle β, it is further attracted in the radial direction, the separation on the side plate 3 side can be suppressed, and the wind speed distribution at the fan outlet 1b can be made uniform.

(xv)また、羽根の外周面4bにおいて垂直そり線C12が、最も逆回転方向となる凹状底部での高さ位置における前縁内周側端部4a2(図7および図11参照)における入口角β12に対する、羽根前縁先端部4a3における入口角β14(図8および図11参照)との角度差を「角度差△β1」とする。
そうすると、図17に示すように、角度差△β1が大き過ぎると、羽根内周面4cの主板2側で剥離が生じ、騒音悪化が生じるものの、角度差△β1が「10°〜20°」の間となるように形成すれば、低騒音効果が得られる。
(Xv) In addition, the vertical sled line C12 on the outer peripheral surface 4b of the blade has an entrance angle at the front edge inner peripheral side end 4a2 (see FIGS. 7 and 11) at the height position at the concave bottom that is the most reverse rotation direction. The angle difference between β12 and the inlet angle β14 (see FIGS. 8 and 11) at the blade leading edge tip 4a3 is defined as “angle difference Δβ1”.
Then, as shown in FIG. 17, if the angle difference Δβ1 is too large, peeling occurs on the main plate 2 side of the blade inner peripheral surface 4c and noise deterioration occurs, but the angle difference Δβ1 is “10 ° to 20 °”. If it forms so that it may become between, a low noise effect is acquired.

(xvi)なお、羽根後縁部4eを略S字状に湾曲した形状、および羽根前縁部4aを径方向外方へ湾曲した形状は、それぞれ単独でも従来に対し低騒音効果がある。
さらに両形状を組み合わせることで、吸引空気は、羽根前縁部4a全体から滑らかに流入するため、羽根後縁部4eへ向け整流された流れが流入する。これにより、略S字形状の羽根表面に流れが沿い易く、かつ、乱れの少ない流れが流入するから、さらに風速分布も均一化され、かつ、相乗して騒音低減が促進される。
(Xvi) Note that the shape in which the blade trailing edge portion 4e is curved in a substantially S-shape and the shape in which the blade leading edge portion 4a is curved outward in the radial direction have a low noise effect compared to the conventional case.
Further, by combining both shapes, the suction air flows smoothly from the entire blade leading edge portion 4a, so that a rectified flow flows into the blade trailing edge portion 4e. As a result, since the flow is easy to follow along the surface of the substantially S-shaped blade and the flow with less turbulence flows, the wind speed distribution is also made uniform and the noise reduction is promoted synergistically.

以上より、本発明に係るターボファンは、低騒音で、製造信頼性や耐久性が高いものである。また、かかるターボファンを搭載することによって、ユーザーにとって耳障りな騒音が抑えられて快適な使用環境を保証することができると共に、長期間に渡って故障のない使用が可能となる安価で高品質な空気調和機を提供することが可能になる。   As described above, the turbofan according to the present invention has low noise and high manufacturing reliability and durability. In addition, by installing such a turbofan, it is possible to guarantee a comfortable use environment by suppressing noise that is unpleasant for the user, and at the same time, it can be used without any trouble over a long period of time. An air conditioner can be provided.

[実施の形態3:ターボファン]
図18および図19は本発明の実施の形態3に係るターボファンを説明するものであって、図18は斜視図、図19は部分を示す断面図(正確には、図18に示す羽根の主板側端部4dにおける弦線Dに直交する平面における羽根4の縦断面図)である。なお、実施の形態2(図2〜図12)と同じ部分または対応する部分にはこれと同じ符号を付し、一部の説明を省略する。
[Embodiment 3: Turbofan]
18 and 19 illustrate a turbofan according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. FIG. 18 is a perspective view, and FIG. 19 is a sectional view showing a part (more precisely, the blade shown in FIG. 18). It is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of the blade | wing 4 in the plane orthogonal to the chord line D in the main-plate side edge part 4d. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part which is the same as that of Embodiment 2 (FIGS. 2-12), or respond | corresponds, and one part description is abbreviate | omitted.

図18において、羽根4の側板3に近い端縁である前縁側板側端部4a1が、側板3から離れた範囲(側板開口部に位置する範囲に同じ)において、平面視において前縁内周側端部4a2に近づくほど径方向外方に位置するように湾曲し、側面視において湾曲範囲が前縁内周側端部4a2に近づくほど前記端縁から遠ざかるように拡大している。
すなわち、ターボファン30には、径方向外方へ湾曲する羽根4の前縁側板側端部4a1と、前縁内周側端部4a2の側板3側の羽根の外周面4bとに、側板側結合部4gの羽根の外周面4bにおける回転方向先端部4g1から羽根4の前縁内周側端部4a2へ向け、徐々に主板2側へ向かう折り曲げ線Bが生成されている。
そして、かかる湾曲範囲の羽根内周面4cには、折り曲げ線Bに略垂直となり、回転軸Oに対し側板3側から主板2側へ向け斜め外方に延出する長方形状の凹溝5を形成されている。
図19において、凹溝5の深さは、前縁側板側端部4a1に近づくに伴って浅くなっている。
すなわち、羽根4は、羽根外周面を形成する部材と羽根内周面を形成する部材とから形成され、内部に空洞を具備する二重構造であって、両者が前縁側板側端部4a1において接合され、前縁側板側端部4a1から遠ざかるほど両者の間隔が広くなっている。
そして、凹溝5の溝底部5aが羽根外周面を形成する部材によって形成されているから、凹溝5の深さは、羽根外周面を形成する部材の内周側面と羽根内周面を形成する部材の内周側面との距離に相当している。
In FIG. 18, the front edge inner periphery in the plan view in the range where the front edge side plate side end 4 a 1, which is the edge close to the side plate 3 of the blade 4, is separated from the side plate 3 (same as the range located in the side plate opening). As it approaches the side end 4a2, it is curved so as to be located radially outward, and in a side view, the curve range is enlarged so that it is farther from the end edge as it approaches the front edge inner peripheral side end 4a2.
That is, the turbo fan 30 includes a front plate side end 4a1 of the blade 4 curved outward in the radial direction and a blade outer peripheral surface 4b of the front plate inner peripheral side end 4a2 on the side plate 3 side. A fold line B is gradually generated from the front end 4g1 in the rotational direction of the outer peripheral surface 4b of the blade of the coupling portion 4g toward the front edge inner peripheral side end 4a2 of the blade 4 toward the main plate 2 side.
Further, on the blade inner peripheral surface 4c in such a curved range, a rectangular groove 5 that is substantially perpendicular to the bending line B and extends obliquely outward from the side plate 3 side to the main plate 2 side with respect to the rotation axis O is provided. Is formed.
In FIG. 19, the depth of the concave groove 5 becomes shallower as it approaches the front edge side plate side end 4 a 1.
That is, the blade 4 is formed of a member that forms a blade outer peripheral surface and a member that forms a blade inner peripheral surface, and has a double structure including a cavity therein, both of which are at the leading edge side plate side end 4a1. The distance between the two becomes wider as they are joined and away from the front edge side plate side end 4a1.
And since the groove bottom part 5a of the ditch | groove 5 is formed of the member which forms a blade outer peripheral surface, the depth of the ditch | groove 5 forms the inner peripheral side surface and blade inner peripheral surface of the member which forms a blade outer peripheral surface. This corresponds to the distance from the inner peripheral side surface of the member.

このように形成されたターボファン30は、ファンモータにより回転方向Aに回転されることで、ファン吸込口1aから空気を吸い込み、羽根4を通過した後、吸引空気をファン吹出口1bから回転方向へ略放射状に吹き出す。
このとき、羽根4に空気が流入する際、前縁側板側端部4a1は径方向外方へ湾曲しているため、羽根の外周面4b上に空気が沿い滑らかに羽根後縁部へ流れるから、乱れが抑制される。また、凹溝5が回転軸Oに対し側板3側から主板2側へ拡大しながら斜め方向に延出するように形成されているため、溝底部5aにより流れが整流されるから、さらに乱れが抑制され低騒音化を促進することができる。
The turbo fan 30 formed in this manner is rotated in the rotation direction A by the fan motor, so that air is sucked from the fan suction port 1a, passes through the blades 4, and then sucked air is rotated from the fan outlet 1b in the rotation direction. Blow out almost radially.
At this time, when the air flows into the blade 4, the leading edge side plate side end portion 4a1 is curved outward in the radial direction, so that the air smoothly flows along the outer peripheral surface 4b of the blade and flows to the trailing edge of the blade. Disturbance is suppressed. Further, since the concave groove 5 is formed so as to extend obliquely while expanding from the side plate 3 side to the main plate 2 side with respect to the rotation axis O, the flow is rectified by the groove bottom portion 5a, so that the disturbance is further disturbed. It is suppressed and noise reduction can be promoted.

また、前記凹溝5の溝底部5aは羽根の外周面4bに沿い羽根4の肉厚が薄肉となるように形成されているので、熱可塑性樹脂でターボファンを成形する場合、肉厚が厚くなる湾曲部でも薄肉なためヒケの防止が可能で成形の信頼性が向上する。
特に、ファン吸込口1aにフィルタ等の通風可能な圧損体が配設される空気調和機10(図1参照)にターボファン30が搭載されると、徐々にフィルタへホコリが堆積し通風抵抗が増加した場合であっても、剥離を抑制し低騒音を維持することができる。
Further, since the groove bottom portion 5a of the concave groove 5 is formed along the outer peripheral surface 4b of the blade so that the thickness of the blade 4 is thin, when the turbofan is molded with a thermoplastic resin, the thickness is large. Even the curved portion is thin, so that sink marks can be prevented and the molding reliability is improved.
In particular, when the turbo fan 30 is mounted on the air conditioner 10 (see FIG. 1) in which a pressure loss body such as a filter is disposed in the fan suction port 1a, dust gradually accumulates on the filter and the ventilation resistance is reduced. Even if it increases, peeling can be suppressed and low noise can be maintained.

本発明は以上の構成であって、低騒音で製造信頼性が高いから、家庭用および事業用の各種ターボファンとして、さらに、かかるターボファンを搭載した家庭用および事業用の各種空気調和機として広く利用することができる。   Since the present invention has the above-described configuration and low noise and high manufacturing reliability, it is used as various household and commercial turbofans, and as various domestic and commercial air conditioners equipped with such turbofans. Can be widely used.
