The heat insulation board for an air conditioner outdoor unit mainly includes a foamed resin board 1 having a sufficient size so that the top surface side of the air conditioner outdoor unit 5 is shielded from direct sunlight, and is disposed on the lower surface of the foamed resin board 1. Two or more (three in this embodiment) gap forming members 2 are arranged in parallel in the width direction. The number of the gap forming members 2 to be used can be appropriately determined in consideration of the size and strength of the foamed resin board 1.

  In the illustrated embodiment, the light reflecting layer 11 that reflects direct sunlight is integrally formed on one surface of the foamed resin board 1, but it can also be formed on both the upper and lower surfaces of the foamed resin board 1. In particular, when the light reflecting layer 11 is formed only on one surface of the foamed resin board 1, when the light reflecting layer 11 is placed on the top surface of the air conditioner outdoor unit 5, the light reflecting layer 11 is placed on the upper side so that the light reflection layer 11 is exposed from the sun. It is possible to prevent the temperature rise of the foamed resin board 1 by reflecting direct sunlight.

Further, when the foamed resin board 1 is placed on the top surface of the air conditioner outdoor unit 5, air naturally flows between the lower surface side of the foamed resin board 1 and the top plate surface of the air conditioner outdoor unit 5, so that the outside of the air conditioner outdoor. A gap forming member 2 for forming a gap is provided so as to form a gap that prevents heat conduction between the machine 5 and the foamed resin board 1, that is, an air flow path C. The gap forming member 2 Are made of the same material as the foamed resin board 1, and at least two of them are arranged in parallel in the width direction.
When the gap forming member 2 is placed on one side of the foamed resin board 1, usually the top surface of the air conditioner outdoor unit 5, the gap forming member 2 may be formed integrally with the foamed resin board 1 in advance so as to be on the lower surface side. Or it can form separately with the foamed resin board 1, and can be united using an adhesive agent, a double-sided adhesive tape, etc. (all are not shown) at the time of use.
The gap forming member 2 forms an air flow passage C through which air naturally flows even when the foamed resin board 1 is distorted when the foamed resin board 1 is placed on the air conditioner outdoor unit 5. The height shall be determined as possible.

The foamed resin board 1 is not particularly limited, but is made of polyethylene foam having a foaming rate of about 30 to 40 times, has a thickness of about 8 to 20 mm, and the light reflecting layer 11 is made of the foamed resin board 1. It is made to form in at least the one side (surface side). Thereby, it can be made lightweight and easy to produce so as to have the required complementarity, heat insulation and flexibility.
The foamed resin board 1 is not limited to polyethylene foam, but can be formed of polypropylene foam, melamine foam, polyurethane foam, or the like.
Usually, the resin material is used in the form of a plate foamed at a required foaming rate. However, when flame retardancy is required, a flame retardant can be added to the resin material, thereby making the flame retardant The foamed resin board 1 can be obtained.
The flame retardant is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include bromines such as TBBPA, DBDPO, HBCD, and TBP, chlorines such as chlorinated baraffin, phosphate esters, and halogenated phosphate esters. An inorganic system such as phosphorus, aluminum hydroxide, and antimony trioxide can be appropriately employed.

  The light reflecting layer 11 formed on at least one surface of the foamed resin board 1 is a metal foil layer formed by depositing aluminum on at least one surface of a polyethylene film, and covering the deposited aluminum surface with a polyethylene terephthalate film to form a three-layer structure. The film can be bonded to the foamed resin board 1 to form an integral structure, but this is not particularly limited, and an aluminum foil film is directly attached to at least one surface of the foamed resin board 1. It can be constituted by a layer made of an arbitrary material capable of reflecting light rays, for example, constituted by sticking a white print film.
