Abstract
The present invention relates to an outdoor unit of an air conditioner, and more particularly, to a front grill in which a plurality of discharge ports through which air is discharged are formed; A blower fan disposed at a position spaced apart from the front grille and having a hub at a central portion thereof and a plurality of blades formed at a circumferential surface of the hub to discharge air in an axial direction; And a grill guide extending from the rear surface of the grill pan toward the blower fan and disposed on the same extension line as the hub to guide the discharge air.
Description
The present invention relates to an air conditioner.
The air conditioner is an appliance for keeping the indoor air in the most suitable condition according to the purpose and purpose. For example, in the summer, the room is controlled by a cool air condition, while in winter the room is controlled by a warm heating condition, by the humidity of the room, and by the clean air of the room.
In detail, the air conditioner is driven by a refrigeration cycle for compressing, condensing, expanding and evaporating the refrigerant, thereby performing the cooling or heating operation of the indoor space.
The air conditioner may be divided into a separate type air conditioner in which the indoor unit and the outdoor unit are separated from each other and an integrated type air conditioner in which the indoor unit and the outdoor unit are combined into one unit depending on whether the indoor unit and the outdoor unit are separated. The outdoor unit includes an outdoor heat exchanger that exchanges heat with outdoor air. The indoor unit includes an indoor heat exchanger that performs heat exchange with indoor air.
When the refrigeration cycle is a cooling operation, the outdoor heat exchanger functions as a condenser, and the indoor heat exchanger functions as an evaporator. On the other hand, when the refrigeration cycle performs the heating operation, the indoor heat exchanger functions as a condenser, and the outdoor heat exchanger functions as an evaporator.
Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2013-44457 discloses an outdoor unit of a general detachable air conditioner.
The outdoor unit of the air conditioner according to the related art is provided with components constituting a refrigeration cycle including an outdoor heat exchanger, a blowing fan rotated by a motor, and a compressor, and a front grill discharging air is provided on the front surface of the outdoor unit do.
The center of the front grill corresponding to the center of rotation of the blowing fan is clogged in a circular shape of a corresponding size, and radial holes are arranged around the hub to have a structure in which air is discharged.
At this time, the central portion of the grill and the hub of the blowing fan are spaced apart from each other. Therefore, when the outdoor unit is not under the rated operation, the flow velocity at the hub side becomes lower than the designed point, and air flowing due to a low flow velocity can be partially introduced into the space between the central portion of the grill and the blowing fan, There is a problem that noise is generated by the development.
An object of the present invention is to provide an outdoor unit of an air conditioner that reduces noise by preventing a vortex phenomenon during rotation of a blowing fan.
An outdoor unit of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a front grille having a plurality of discharge ports through which air is discharged; A blower fan disposed at a position spaced apart from the front grille and having a hub at a central portion thereof and a plurality of blades formed at a circumferential surface of the hub to discharge air in an axial direction; And a grill guide extending from the back surface of the grill pan to the blower fan side and arranged on the same extension line as the hub to guide the discharge air.
The grill guide is formed in a cylindrical shape and is formed to have the same diameter as the front surface of the hub positioned at the opposite position.
The grill guide is formed so that its diameter decreases gradually toward the front grill side, and the circumferential surface is formed to be inclined.
The grill guide includes a circumferential portion forming an inclined circumferential surface; A front portion bent inwardly from one end of the peripheral portion and engaged with the grill guide; And a rear portion bent inward from the other end of the peripheral portion and disposed to face the front surface of the hub.
And an opening through the grill guide is formed at the center of the front part and the rear part.
And a coupling protrusion and a coupling hole are formed on a rear surface of the front part and the front grille so as to be coupled to each other so that the grill guide can be fixedly mounted.
And the ratio of the diameters of the front portion and the rear portion is 0.6 to 0.7.
And the rear portion and the front surface of the hub are spaced apart by approximately 10 mm to 14 mm.
A circular grill core is formed at a center of a front grille extending in the same line as the hub, and the grill guide extends rearward along the periphery of the grill core.
The grill core is formed to be smaller than the diameter of the hub, and the diameter of the extended end of the grill guide is the same as the diameter of the hub, and the circumferential surface of the grill guide is formed to be inclined.
The extended end portion of the grill guide is formed to be open, and a rear portion adjacent to the front surface of the hub is further formed at the open end of the grill guide.
The grill guide is formed integrally with the front grille by injection molding at the time of forming the front grille.
According to the outdoor unit of the air conditioner of the embodiment of the present invention, since the grill guide is further provided between the core of the grill and the hub of the blowing fan, the interval between the hub of the blowing fan and the grill guide is narrowed, Even when the flow velocity of the air flowing along the air flow is lowered, air is introduced into the space between the hub of the blowing fan and the grill guide to prevent vortices from being generated, and noise generated when the air flows is reduced.
The outer surface of the grill guide may be inclined so that the flow of air adjacent to the hub side of the blower fan is guided smoothly toward the front grill side, thereby improving the flow of air.
In addition, a rear portion facing the hub may be formed on one side of the grill guide contacting the hub of the blowing fan, so that air flowing along the hub side can be prevented from flowing into the grill guide.
