Outdoor machine for air conditioner

TLDR: In this paper, a top-flow type outdoor machine is provided with air supplying openings on its side-face sides and a heat exchanger 8 on its back side, and a corner guide 18a is provided to the void of each corner section formed of the front-face plate 2, sideface plate, roof plate 6, and bell mouth of the machine.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make compact and silent an outdoor machine for an air conditioner which uses the air blowing-out surface of an axial fan installed to the upper section of an enclosure as its upper surface by providing a corner guide to at least one of the void sections in the corner sections formed of the front-face plate, roof plate, and one side-face plate which is adjacent to the front-face plate SOLUTION: A top-flow type outdoor machine 1 is provided with air supplying openings on its side-face sides and a heat exchanger 8 on its back side The machine 1 is also provided with a compressor 9, an accumulator 10, an axial fan, a bell mouth 12, etc, and a heat-exchanged wind exhausted front the fan 11 is discharged upward after passing through an exhaust pipe 7 and a guard net 16 In the machine 1, a corner guide 18a is provided to the void of each corner section formed of the front-face plate 2, side-face plate, roof plate 6, and bell mouth of the machine 1 Therefore, the outdoor machine 1 can be operated silently, because the heat-exchanged wind sucked from the heat exchanger 8 is prevented front staying in the voids of the corner sections and, at the same time, the efficiency deterioration of the fan 11 caused by uneven flows in the circumferential direction can be suppressed
