Description

本発明は、空気調和機の構造に関する。
The present invention relates to the structure of an air conditioner.

従来の遠心送風機には、送風ファンを小型化することなくケーシングの小型化を図れるようにしたものとして、図4に示すように、側面に略円形状の空気吸込部aを設け、略矩形状の空気吹出部bを前端部に設けた渦巻形のケーシングcと、これら空気吸込部aと空気吹出部bとを結ぶ空気通路に設けた遠心式の送風ファンdとを備え、ケーシングcの巻き始めノーズ部eの側端から空気吹出部bの側端にかけて、空気吸込部aの外周面を順次拡大するように形成したものが知られている(例えば、特開2006−152936号公報および特開平9−287756号公報)。   As shown in FIG. 4, the conventional centrifugal blower is provided with a substantially circular air suction portion a on the side surface so that the casing can be miniaturized without reducing the size of the blower fan. And a centrifugal blower fan d provided in an air passage connecting the air suction part a and the air blowing part b, and a winding of the casing c. A device is known in which the outer peripheral surface of the air suction portion a is first enlarged from the side end of the nose portion e to the side end of the air blowing portion b (see, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-152936 and a special one). (Kaihei 9-287756).

これにより、ケーシングの小型化を図ることができるとともに、送風量が減少してしまったり、騒音を発生させてしまうといった性能の低下が生じないようにしていた。   As a result, the casing can be reduced in size, and the deterioration in performance such as a decrease in the amount of blown air or generation of noise is prevented.

しかしながら、空気吸込部aの外周面の傾斜角度を大きく形成できにくいため、小型化を図ったケーシングcの後端部において、空気吸込部aの外周面と、空気吸込部aの側方に配置した図示しないファンモータとの間の隙間は、空気吸込部aの外周面の傾斜角度を利用して大きく確保することが困難になって、該箇所から空気吸込部aに吸い込まれる空気の抵抗を減少できにくくなる。   However, since it is difficult to form a large inclination angle of the outer peripheral surface of the air suction portion a, the rear end portion of the casing c with a reduced size is disposed on the outer peripheral surface of the air suction portion a and on the side of the air suction portion a. It is difficult to ensure a large gap between the fan motor (not shown) using the inclination angle of the outer peripheral surface of the air suction portion a, and the resistance of air sucked into the air suction portion a from the location is reduced. It becomes difficult to decrease.

空気吸込部aに吸い込まれる空気の抵抗を減少させるには、送風ファンdとケーシングcとの隙間を大きくする必要があるため、この隙間が大きい上記公報に記載の遠心送風機を空気調和機に用いた場合、静圧を維持しつつ空気調和機の筐体の小型軽量化を図ることが困難になるという問題点を有していた。   In order to reduce the resistance of the air sucked into the air suction part a, it is necessary to increase the gap between the blower fan d and the casing c. Therefore, the centrifugal blower described in the above publication with a large gap is used for an air conditioner. In such a case, it is difficult to reduce the size and weight of the casing of the air conditioner while maintaining the static pressure.

以下、本発明を実施するための形態を、添付図面に基づいた実施例として詳細に説明する。   EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION Hereinafter, the form for implementing this invention is demonstrated in detail as an Example based on an accompanying drawing.

本発明による遠心送風機1の構成について、図1と、図2(A)および図2(B)とに基づいて以下に説明するとともに、この遠心送風機1が用いられている空気調和機13の構成について、図1に基づいて以下に説明する。   The configuration of the centrifugal blower 1 according to the present invention will be described below based on FIG. 1, FIG. 2 (A) and FIG. 2 (B), and the configuration of the air conditioner 13 in which the centrifugal blower 1 is used. Will be described below with reference to FIG.

本発明による遠心送風機1は、両側面に略円形状の空気吸込部2を備え、略矩形状の空気吹出部3を前端部4aに設けた渦巻形のケーシング4と、空気吸込部2と空気吹出部3とを結ぶ空気通路に設けた遠心式の送風ファン(シロッコファン)5とを備えている。   A centrifugal blower 1 according to the present invention is provided with a substantially circular air suction portion 2 on both side surfaces, a spiral casing 4 having a substantially rectangular air blowing portion 3 provided at a front end portion 4a, an air suction portion 2 and air. A centrifugal blower fan (sirocco fan) 5 provided in an air passage connecting the blowout part 3 is provided.

遠心式の送風ファン5は、ケーシング4の両側面に備えた空気吸込部2から空気を吸い込めるように、主板5aの両側に複数の翼を環状に配設した多翼ファンと、主板5aに接続されている多翼ファンの回転軸とからなる構成になっており、この多翼ファンの回転軸と、多翼ファンの回転軸を回転させるファンモータ6の駆動軸7とが同軸状に連結され、このファンモータ6は、その側部をケーシング4の空気吸込部2に近接させている。   The centrifugal blower fan 5 includes a multi-blade fan in which a plurality of blades are annularly arranged on both sides of the main plate 5a so as to suck air from the air suction portions 2 provided on both side surfaces of the casing 4, and a main plate 5a. The rotary shaft of the connected multi-blade fan is configured, and the rotary shaft of the multi-blade fan and the drive shaft 7 of the fan motor 6 that rotates the rotary shaft of the multi-blade fan are connected coaxially. The fan motor 6 has its side portion close to the air suction portion 2 of the casing 4.

これにより、ケーシング4の空気吸込部2の外周面2aを傾斜させることによって、ファンモータ6の側部を、ケーシング4の空気吸込部2に近づけることができるようになって、遠心送風機1として小型化を図ることができるようになる。   Thus, by tilting the outer peripheral surface 2 a of the air suction portion 2 of the casing 4, the side portion of the fan motor 6 can be brought closer to the air suction portion 2 of the casing 4. It becomes possible to plan.

その際、筐体11の前部に備えた吸込口11aに臨ませているケーシング4の空気吸込部2と、ファンモータ6との間(の隙間)が狭くならないように構成できるので、該箇所から吸い込まれて空気吸込部2に向かう空気流に対する抵抗が増加しなくなり、また同様に、ファンモータ6を近接させた空気吸込部2に対向する側の空気吸込部2に向かう空気流に対する抵抗も増加しなくなって、静圧を維持しつつ筐体11の小型軽量化を図れるようにした空気調和機となる。   In that case, since it can comprise so that the space | gap between the air suction part 2 of the casing 4 facing the suction inlet 11a with which the front part of the housing | casing 11 was equipped, and the fan motor 6 may not become narrow, The resistance to the air flow toward the air suction portion 2 that is sucked from the air does not increase, and similarly, the resistance to the air flow toward the air suction portion 2 on the side facing the air suction portion 2 that is close to the fan motor 6 is also provided. The air conditioner can be reduced in size and weight while maintaining the static pressure without increasing.

本発明による遠心送風機1は、渦巻形のケーシング4と、ケーシング4内に設置された遠心式の送風ファン5と、送風ファン5に連結された駆動軸7を有するファンモータ6とからなる構成になっており、この遠心送風機1を用いた空気調和機13は、空気調和機13を構成する筐体11の内部が、仕切板10により、遠心送風機1が設置されている送風機室と、熱交換器8が設置されている熱交換器室とに区画されており、熱交換器室の側部には電装部12が設けられている。   The centrifugal blower 1 according to the present invention includes a spiral casing 4, a centrifugal blower fan 5 installed in the casing 4, and a fan motor 6 having a drive shaft 7 connected to the blower fan 5. The air conditioner 13 using the centrifugal blower 1 is configured such that the inside of the casing 11 constituting the air conditioner 13 is heat-exchanged with the blower chamber in which the centrifugal blower 1 is installed by the partition plate 10. The heat exchanger room is divided into a heat exchanger room, and an electrical component 12 is provided on the side of the heat exchanger room.

これにより、ファンモータ6を起動し送風ファン5を駆動することにより、図1と、図2(A)とに示す矢印aのように、筐体11に備えた送風機室内に吸込口11aから空気が吸い込まれたのち、空気吸込部2からケーシング4内に吸い込まれ、ケーシング4内に設置されている送風ファン5を経て、ケーシング4の前端部4aに設けられている空気吹出部3から吹き出されるようになっている。   As a result, the fan motor 6 is activated and the blower fan 5 is driven, so that the air from the suction port 11a enters the blower chamber provided in the housing 11 as shown by the arrow a in FIG. 1 and FIG. Is sucked into the casing 4 from the air suction portion 2 and blown out from the air blowing portion 3 provided at the front end portion 4 a of the casing 4 through the blower fan 5 installed in the casing 4. It has become so.

なお、筐体11に備えている送風機室に設けられた吸込口11aは、ケーシング4に設けられた空気吸込部2に連通するように設けられた構成になっている。   The suction port 11 a provided in the blower chamber provided in the housing 11 is configured to communicate with the air suction part 2 provided in the casing 4.

ケーシング4に設けられた空気吹出部3は、筐体11内を区画する仕切板10を挿通して、筐体11に備えている熱交換器室内に突出するように構成されている。   The air blowing portion 3 provided in the casing 4 is configured to pass through a partition plate 10 that partitions the inside of the housing 11 and protrudes into a heat exchanger chamber provided in the housing 11.

筐体11に備えた熱交換器室は、ケーシング4に設けられた空気吹出部3の前方である空気流通路からなり、この空気流通路には熱交換器8が配置されており、熱交換器8の下部には、この熱交換器8から滴下するドレン水を受けるためのドレンパン9が設置された構成になっている。   The heat exchanger chamber provided in the housing 11 is composed of an air flow passage in front of the air blowing portion 3 provided in the casing 4, and a heat exchanger 8 is disposed in the air flow passage. A drain pan 9 for receiving drain water dripping from the heat exchanger 8 is installed at the lower part of the vessel 8.

これにより、ケーシング4の前端部4aに設けられた空気吹出部3から、筐体11に備えた空気流通路からなる熱交換器室に吹き出された空気は、熱交換器8によって熱交換されたのち、図1と、図2(A)とに示す矢印bのように、筐体11に備えた熱交換器室に設けられている吹出口11bから室内に吹き出されて空気調和が行われることになる。   As a result, the air blown from the air blowing portion 3 provided at the front end portion 4 a of the casing 4 to the heat exchanger chamber including the air flow passage provided in the housing 11 was heat-exchanged by the heat exchanger 8. After that, as indicated by the arrow b shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 (A), the air is conditioned by being blown into the room from the air outlet 11b provided in the heat exchanger room provided in the housing 11. become.

なお、筐体11に備えた熱交換器室に設けられている吹出口11bは、図1と、図2(A)とに矢印bで示す調和空気の吹出位置に設けられている。   In addition, the blower outlet 11b provided in the heat exchanger chamber provided in the housing | casing 11 is provided in the blowing position of the conditioned air shown by the arrow b in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 (A).

次に、上述した構成でなる遠心送風機1の小型化を図るとともに、この遠心送風機1を用いることにより、空気調和機13として静圧を維持しつつ筐体11の小型軽量化に寄与できるようにした構成について、実施例1として示す図1と、図2(A)および図2(B)とに基づいて以下に説明する。   Next, the centrifugal blower 1 having the above-described configuration is reduced in size, and by using the centrifugal blower 1, the air conditioner 13 can contribute to reducing the size and weight of the casing 11 while maintaining a static pressure. The configuration described above will be described below based on FIG. 1 shown as the first embodiment and FIGS. 2 (A) and 2 (B).

遠心送風機1は、送風ファン5の回転軸方向となるケーシング4の幅寸法が、ケーシング4の前端部4aとなる空気吹出部3の側から後端部4bに向けて、空気吸込部2の外周面2aが傾斜して徐々に縮小するように形成された構成になっている。   The centrifugal blower 1 has an outer periphery of the air suction portion 2 such that the width dimension of the casing 4 in the rotational axis direction of the blower fan 5 is directed from the air blowing portion 3 side, which is the front end portion 4a of the casing 4, toward the rear end portion 4b. The surface 2a is inclined so as to be gradually reduced.

ケーシング4の幅寸法は、ケーシング4の前端部4aとなる空気吹出部3の幅寸法L1から、ケーシング4の後端部4bの幅寸法L2に向けて、空気吸込部2の外周面2aが徐々に縮小するように平面状に傾斜することにより、2°〜5°程度の図2(B)に示す傾斜角θを有してL1>L2の関係となるように形成されている。   The width dimension of the casing 4 is such that the outer peripheral surface 2a of the air suction part 2 gradually increases from the width dimension L1 of the air blowing part 3 serving as the front end part 4a of the casing 4 toward the width dimension L2 of the rear end part 4b of the casing 4. By being inclined in a planar shape so as to be reduced, the inclination angle θ shown in FIG. 2B is about 2 ° to 5 °, and the relationship of L1> L2 is established.

その際、図2(B)に示す送風ファン5の幅寸法Dは小型化することなく、送風ファン5と空気吸込部2との間に隙間Gを有したままの構成になっている。   At that time, the width D of the blower fan 5 shown in FIG. 2 (B) is configured such that the gap G remains between the blower fan 5 and the air suction portion 2 without being reduced in size.

これにより、送風ファン5の幅寸法Dは小型化することなく、ケーシング4の幅寸法を、ケーシング4の前端部4aとなる空気吹出部3の側から後端部4bに向かうにしたがって小型化できるようになる。   Thereby, without reducing the width dimension D of the blower fan 5, the width dimension of the casing 4 can be reduced as it goes from the air blowing part 3 side, which is the front end part 4a of the casing 4, toward the rear end part 4b. It becomes like this.

その際、ケーシング4の幅寸法を小型化したことにより、送風ファン5の回転軸に同軸状に連結される駆動軸7を備えたファンモータ6は、図2(B)に示す傾斜角θを有して傾斜させた空気吸込部2の外周面2aに近づけることができるようになって、遠心送風機1として小型化を図れるようになる。   At that time, by reducing the width of the casing 4, the fan motor 6 having the drive shaft 7 coaxially connected to the rotating shaft of the blower fan 5 has an inclination angle θ shown in FIG. The centrifugal blower 1 can be reduced in size by being able to approach the outer peripheral surface 2a of the air suction portion 2 that is inclined.

また、遠心送風機1は、空気調和機13に用いられた際、ケーシング4の空気吸込部2の外周面2aと、ファンモータ6との間の隙間が、筐体11の前部に備えた吸込口11aに向かうにしたがって拡大するように構成されているので、吸込口11aから吸い込まれて空気吸込部2に向かう空気流に対する抵抗を減少させることで空気流量は増加することになって、空気調和機13として静圧を維持しつつ筐体11の小型軽量化を図れるようになる。   Further, when the centrifugal blower 1 is used in the air conditioner 13, the suction between the outer peripheral surface 2 a of the air suction portion 2 of the casing 4 and the fan motor 6 is provided in the front portion of the housing 11. Since it is configured to expand toward the port 11a, the air flow rate is increased by reducing the resistance to the air flow sucked from the suction port 11a and directed to the air suction unit 2, and thus air conditioning. As the machine 13, the casing 11 can be reduced in size and weight while maintaining a static pressure.

同様に、ケーシング4の両側面に備えた略円形状の空気吸込部2の外周面2aを傾斜させることで、ファンモータ6を近接させた空気吸込部2に対向する側の空気吸込部2に向かう空気流に対する抵抗も増加しなくなって、静圧を維持しつつ筐体11の小型軽量化を図れるようにした空気調和機となる。   Similarly, by inclining the outer peripheral surface 2a of the substantially circular air suction portion 2 provided on both side surfaces of the casing 4, the air suction portion 2 on the side facing the air suction portion 2 close to the fan motor 6 is provided. The resistance to the air flow to which it goes is not increased, and the air conditioner can be reduced in size and weight while maintaining the static pressure.

次に、ケーシング4の側面に設けられた空気吸込部2の外周面2aを傾斜させることなく、図2(B)の破線で示すように、L2=L2’となるようにケーシング4の小型化を図る場合の構成を従来の遠心送風機とし、空気吸込部2の外周面2aを傾斜させたケーシング4の構成を本発明による遠心送風機1とした時の「静圧(Pa)−入力(W)」の関係について、図2(B)と、図3(A)とに基づいて以下に説明する。   Next, the casing 4 is reduced in size so that L2 = L2 ′ as shown by the broken line in FIG. 2B without inclining the outer peripheral surface 2a of the air suction portion 2 provided on the side surface of the casing 4. "Static pressure (Pa)-input (W)" when the configuration of the conventional centrifugal blower is used and the configuration of the casing 4 in which the outer peripheral surface 2a of the air suction portion 2 is inclined is the centrifugal blower 1 according to the present invention. ”Will be described below with reference to FIG. 2B and FIG.

従来の遠心送風機および本発明による遠心送風機1における静圧(Pa)−入力(W)の関係において、図3(A)に示す破線および実線のように、入力(W)に対する静圧(Pa)は、破線で示す従来の遠心送風機よりも、実線で示す本発明による遠心送風機1が上回っている。   In the relationship of static pressure (Pa) -input (W) in the conventional centrifugal blower and the centrifugal blower 1 according to the present invention, the static pressure (Pa) with respect to the input (W) as indicated by the broken line and the solid line shown in FIG. Is higher than the centrifugal blower 1 according to the present invention indicated by a solid line than the conventional centrifugal blower indicated by a broken line.

これにより、図2(B)の破線で示すように、L2=L2’となるようにケーシング4の小型化を図る場合の構成に較べて、L1>L2となるようにケーシング4を傾斜させて小型化を図る構成は、入力(W)に対する静圧(Pa)を大きくすることができるようになることから、本発明の構成により、ケーシング4の小型化を図る以前の構成に対し、ケーシング4の小型化を図って、空気吸込部2に吸い込まれる吸込空気の抵抗を減少できるようにした遠心送風機1となる。   As a result, as shown by the broken line in FIG. 2B, the casing 4 is inclined so that L1> L2 as compared with the configuration in which the casing 4 is downsized so that L2 = L2 ′. Since the configuration for reducing the size can increase the static pressure (Pa) with respect to the input (W), the configuration of the present invention allows the casing 4 to be compared with the configuration before the casing 4 is reduced in size. Therefore, the centrifugal blower 1 is configured such that the resistance of the suction air sucked into the air suction portion 2 can be reduced.

同様に、ケーシング4の側面に設けられた空気吸込部2の外周面2aを傾斜させることなく、図2(B)の破線で示すように、L2=L2’となるようにケーシング4の小型化を図る場合の構成を従来の遠心送風機とし、空気吸込部2の外周面2aを傾斜させたケーシング4の構成を本発明による遠心送風機1とした時の「静圧(Pa)−風量(m3/h)」の関係について、図2(B)と、図3(B)とに基づいて以下に説明する。   Similarly, the casing 4 is reduced in size so that L2 = L2 ′ as shown by the broken line in FIG. 2B without inclining the outer peripheral surface 2a of the air suction portion 2 provided on the side surface of the casing 4. "Static pressure (Pa)-air volume (m3 /) when the structure of the casing 4 in which the outer peripheral surface 2a of the air suction portion 2 is inclined is the centrifugal fan 1 according to the present invention. h) ”will be described below with reference to FIG. 2B and FIG.

従来の遠心送風機および本発明による遠心送風機1における静圧(Pa)−風量(m3/h)の関係において、図3(B)に示す破線および実線のように、静圧(Pa)に対する風量(m3/h)は、破線で示す従来の遠心送風機よりも、実線で示す本発明による遠心送風機1が上回っている。   In the relationship between the static pressure (Pa) and the air volume (m3 / h) in the conventional centrifugal fan and the centrifugal fan 1 according to the present invention, as shown by the broken line and the solid line in FIG. m3 / h) is higher than the centrifugal blower 1 according to the present invention indicated by the solid line than the conventional centrifugal blower indicated by the broken line.

これにより、図2(B)の破線で示すように、L2=L2’となるようにケーシング4の小型化を図る構成に較べて、L1’>L2となるようにケーシング4を傾斜させて小型化を図る構成は、静圧(Pa)に対する風量(m3/h)を大きくすることができるようになることから、本発明の構成により、ケーシング4の小型化を図る以前の構成に対し、ケーシング4の小型化を図って、空気吸込部2に吸い込まれる吸込空気の抵抗を減少できるようにした遠心送風機1となる。   As a result, as shown by the broken line in FIG. 2 (B), the casing 4 is inclined so that L1 ′> L2 and is smaller than the configuration in which the casing 4 is downsized so that L2 = L2 ′. Since the structure to achieve the reduction can increase the air volume (m3 / h) with respect to the static pressure (Pa), the casing of the present invention is different from the structure before the casing 4 is reduced in size by the structure of the present invention. Therefore, the centrifugal blower 1 is configured so that the resistance of the suction air sucked into the air suction portion 2 can be reduced.

なお、本発明による遠心送風機1は、図1に示すように、ケーシング4の両側面に設けられた空気吸込部2の外周面2aを傾斜させることによって、空気吸込部2に吸い込まれる吸込空気の抵抗を減少できるようにしたものとして説明しているが、ケーシング4の一側面にのみ設けられた空気吸込部2の外周面2aを傾斜させるように構成してもよい。   In addition, as shown in FIG. 1, the centrifugal blower 1 according to the present invention tilts the outer peripheral surface 2a of the air suction portion 2 provided on both side surfaces of the casing 4 so that the suction air sucked into the air suction portion 2 is reduced. Although it has been described that the resistance can be reduced, the outer peripheral surface 2a of the air suction portion 2 provided only on one side surface of the casing 4 may be inclined.

以上説明したように、本発明の構成によれば、静圧を維持しつつ筐体の小型軽量化を図った空気調和機を提供できる。
As described above, according to the configuration of the present invention, it is possible to provide an air conditioner in which the casing is reduced in size and weight while maintaining a static pressure.
