FIG. 5 is a top view of a conventional centrifugal blower in a packed state, i.e., showscentrifugal blower 101 in a packed state seen from above. According tocentrifugal blower 101, as shown inFIG. 4 andFIG. 5 , the own weight ofmotor 107 is commonly supported by motor-fixing side plate 108. In packing, suction opening 104 of the centrifugal blower is faced tobottom 114 ofcontainer box 113 so that the motor's own weight applied to motor-fixing side plate 108 is supported by the entire structure ofcasing 102. -
Centrifugal blower 101 has a shape of a cuboid orcube having corners 115. Ifblower 101 packaged in the box is accidentally dropped,corners 115 can be damaged by the impact of the drop. To protectcorners 115 from the drop impact,buffering area 116 has to be formed betweencontainer box 113 and the body ofcentrifugal blower 101. The need forbuffering area 116 has brought a problem—increase in packaging volume. - The centrifugal blower of the present invention contains a casing having a scroll and an impeller incorporated in the casing. The casing has a side plate with a suction opening and a motor-fixing side plate on which the motor is mounted. The impeller is fixed to the motor. Each of the side plate and the motor-fixing side plate has an outer shape of a rectangle with the four corners cut off.
- When such formed centrifugal blower is packed in a container box whose bottom has a size approximately the same as the external dimensions of the centrifugal blower, a space is kept between a cut-off part and the container box. That is, the structure eliminates the corners that are easily damaged if the centrifugal blower packaged in the box is accidentally dropped. By virtue of the structure with no need of buffering material at the corners in packing, the package volume will not increase.

-
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a centrifugal blower of the exemplary embodiment of the present invention. As shown inFIG. 1 ,centrifugal blower 1 hascasing 2 andimpeller 3 built incasing 2.Casing 2 has side plate 5 having suction opening 4,scroll 6, and motor-fixing side plate 8 on whichmotor 7 is mounted. -
Impeller 3 is fixed to the rotation shaft ofmotor 7. The rotation ofimpeller 3 driven bymotor 7 allowssuction air 9 to flow intocasing 2 from suction opening 4 viaimpeller 3. The air then blows out ofimpeller 3 and is pressurized incasing 2. Having conversion from dynamic pressure to static pressure, the air flows out of discharge opening 10 asdischarge air 11. - Each of side plate 5 and motor-
fixing side plate 8 has an outer shape, as an anterior view facing suction opening 4, of a rectangular whose fourcorners 20 cut off. Side plate 5 and motor-fixing side plate 8 should preferably be disposed such thatlong sides 12 andshort sides 13 of side plate 5 are parallel to those of motor-fixing side plate 8. Further preferably,long sides 12 andshort sides 13 of side plate 5 should be the same aslong sides 12 andshort sides 13, respectively, of motor-fixing side plate 8. Side plate 5 and motor-fixing side plate 8 have an outer shape of octagon. Besides, each of side plate 5 and motor-fixingside plate 8 hasflange 14 standing upright like a wall on the periphery of the plate. -
FIG. 2 is a sheet-metal development view of the motor-fixing side plate of the centrifugal blower; specifically, it is a sheet-metal development view of motor-fixing side plate 8 withflange 14 not yet formed.Bend section 15 ofFIG. 2 is a line connecting betweenadjacent edges 20 a of fourcorners 20 of motor-fixing side plate 8. Similarly,bend section 15 of side plate 5 shown inFIG. 1 is a line connecting betweenadjacent edges 20 a of fourcorners 20.Flange 14 is formed parallel tobend section 15 in a manner that each side of the plates is outwardly bent atbend section 15. -
Bend section 15 is formed on eachlong side 12.Bend section 15 has extendedsections 16 extended along eachlong side 12 on the side ofshort side 13. That is,flange 14 has extendedsections 16 extended from the both ends ofbend section 15.Flange 14 atshort side 13 is so formed that each ofextended sections 16 is bent atbend line 15 a and then adjacent twoextended sections 16 are overlapped with each other.Flange 14 onshort side 13 shown inFIG. 1 is thus completed. Fourcorners 20 are cut off in the same shape, which allowsflange 14 to be easily formed. - The workings and effect of the aforementioned structure will be described below.
FIG. 3 is a top view of the centrifugal blower in a packed state of the exemplary embodiment. Specifically,FIG. 3 showscontainer box 18, seen from above, in whichcentrifugal blower 1 is packed.Centrifugal blower 1 is packed incontainer box 18 in a manner that motor-fixingside plate 8 places above.Container box 18 has bottom 17 that is approximately the same as the outside dimension of side plate 5 ofcentrifugal blower 1 shown inFIG. 1 ; specifically, bottom 17 is a little bit larger than the rectangle formed bylong sides 12 of side plate 5. - When
centrifugal blower 1 is packed in the box,space 19 is retained betweencontainer box 18 and the cut-off of side plate 5 and motor-fixingside plate 8. When a device in a packed state is dropped down, the most vulnerable part is an angulated section of the device. As shown inFIG. 3 ,centrifugal blower 1 has no angulated section andspace 19 is formed instead.Space 19 is a buffer against an accidental drop ofcentrifugal blower 1 in a packed state, working as impact absorption.Container box 18 absorbs the drop impact while deforming, protectingcentrifugal blower 1 from damage. - As shown in
FIG. 1 ,long sides 12 of side plate 5 and motor-fixingside plate 8 should preferably be the same in size and be disposed in parallel; similarly,short sides 13 of the two plates should preferably be the same in size and be disposed in parallel. Further preferably, the four sides ofcontainer box 18 ofFIG. 3 in whichcentrifugal blower 1 is packed should be the same in size. The structure eliminates limitation on packing positioning centrifugal blower 1 (i.e., eliminates wrong orientation ofcentrifugal blower 1 in packing), makingspace 19 for sure. - Although side plate 5 and motor-fixing
side plate 8 of the embodiment inFIG. 1 have an outer shape of octagon, the octagonal shape may have rounded-off corners. That is, side plate 5 and motor-fixingside plate 8 may be substantially shaped into an octagon with the corners rounded off. The structure—even when side plate 5 and motor-fixingside plate 8 are substantially shaped into an octagon—protectscentrifugal blower 1 in a packed state from drop impact. - In the embodiment, each of side plate 5 and motor-fixing
side plate 8 shown inFIG. 1 has eight sides of two pairs oflong sides 12 facing each other and two pairs ofshort sides 13 facing each other, but it is not limited to; each plate may contain more sides, as long as having at least eight. - In the embodiment,
flange 14 at eachshort side 13 of side plate 5 and motor-fixingside plate 8 shown inFIG. 1 is formed such that adjacent twoextended sections 16 are overlapped with each other, but it is not limited to;short side 13 may contain a flange part connected to flange 14 onlong side 12. In that case, the flange part is bent together withflange 14 so as to formflange 14 onshort side 13. - According to the structure of the embodiment,
flange 14 shown inFIG. 1 is easily formed by bending without an additional component. Further,flange 14 works as a reinforcement rib, which protects side plate 5 and motor-fixingside plate 8 from a warp or deformation in the direction of the plate surfaces. -
Flange 14 shown inFIG. 2 is formed ofextended sections 16 overlapped with each other. When the side plate is carried on and suspended for fixing whileflange 14 is being held, the direction in which the force is exerted agrees with the connecting direction ofadjacent flange 14. This increases the strength offlange 14. - The structure increases the strength of side plate 5 and motor-fixing
side plate 8 shown inFIG. 1 , allowingcentrifugal blower 1 to be fixed as a self-standing structure by casing 2 alone. Such structuredcentrifugal blower 1 is directly amounted on air conditioners and the like. Besides, the structure eliminates the need of buffer material for protecting corners whencentrifugal blower 1 is packed, reducing the package volume of the product. - The present invention is applicable not only to centrifugal blowers but also to packing of various devices.
