On the other hand, the outside air is taken into the unit room by the rotation of the condenser fan, and the warm wind after cooling the condenser flows backward. A part of the warm wind that comes out behind is taken into the duct from the entrance opening of the duct, and is blown toward the evaporator through the duct. Since the duct gradually widens as it goes ahead, a sufficient amount of warm air is smoothly fed into the evaporator. Then, the warm air sent from the duct hits the evaporating member, and the evaporation of the drain water in the evaporating dish is promoted.

生ずることとなる。As shown in FIG. 3, behind the condenser fan 17, it extends in the vertical direction to cool the condenser 16 and to take in a part of the wind which rises a little in temperature and goes backward. An intake duct 31A is provided, and the wind taken in from the opening 32 on the front surface passes through a bottom duct 31B provided in the longitudinal direction along the bottom surface of the main body 1A, and the evaporator 2B.
5 is supplied. That is, intake duct 3
1A and a bottom duct 31B, and a duct 31 is provided for effectively guiding heat radiation of the condensing unit 20 on the side and for flowing wind so as to promote the evaporating action of the evaporating member 29 of the evaporating device 25. The bottom duct 31B has a shape whose width gradually increases as it goes forward. Even if the width of the inlet of such warm air is narrow, the duct 31B which expands toward the outlet side can secure warm air with a sufficient air volume to evaporate. In addition, since the outlet side is widened, warm air comes into contact with the evaporator evenly without bias, so that efficient evaporation can be expected. By providing such a duct 31, a high evaporating ability is obtained by a synergistic effect of the heat radiation temperature of the condenser 16 and the wind of the condenser fan 17, and those which cannot exert these effective effects, A remarkable difference in evaporative power is produced as compared with a case in which only one of the effects acts.

A wind direction plate 35 having a tip directed downward is provided above the discharge opening 33 of B. Due to the presence of the wind direction plate 35, the discharged wind flows without passing through the upper part of the evaporating member 29 as shown by the arrow, and evenly hits the exposed portion of the evaporating member 29, so that the evaporation efficiency is improved. It becomes possible.

It is possible to solve the shortage of the evaporation ability due to the decrease in the wind speed of the discharge opening 33 that occurs when the discharge opening 33 is shielded by the side wall 30A.

Since the air is sent to the evaporator, warm air having a substantially constant air volume and air velocity is sent in, the evaporation efficiency in the evaporator is remarkably increased, and the evaporating process of the drain water can be performed quickly. In addition, the duct has a shape that gradually widens as it gets closer to the evaporator, so that a sufficient amount of warm air is smoothly sent to the evaporator, and warm air is evenly applied to the evaporator from the expanded discharge port. Therefore, the warm air is effectively used, and the evaporation is actively performed. Further, in terms of configuration, it is possible to provide a drain water treatment apparatus which can cope with the improvement by providing a part of the warm air flowing to the rear of the condenser and carrying a duct to the evaporator, and which is inexpensive.
