【考案の詳細な説明】 この考案は空気調和機の室外側ユニット、特に降雨の回
収機能を有する電気品箱に関するものである。[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to an outdoor unit of an air conditioner, particularly an electrical component box having a rain collection function.

一般に、空気調和機の凝縮器を被う外殻キャビネットに
開設された吸込口又は吹出口へ降雨が侵入する為、付近
の電気部品等を降雨から如何にして保護するかというこ
とで色々と頭を悩ましてきた。Generally, rainwater enters the air inlet or outlet installed in the outer cabinet that covers the condenser of an air conditioner, so there are many concerns about how to protect nearby electrical components from the rain. has been bothering me.

この考案はこのような観点からなされたもので、以下、
第１図から第５図に示す実施例において説明する。This idea was made from this perspective, and is as follows:
The embodiments shown in FIGS. 1 to 5 will be explained.

１は室外ユニット本体、２は断面逆り字状の前面キャビ
ネット、３ａは左側板、３ｂは右側板、４は前面キャビ
ネット２に一体穿孔された吸込グリル、５は前面キャビ
ネット２に固着された吹出ネットである。1 is the outdoor unit main body, 2 is a front cabinet with an inverted cross-section, 3a is a left side panel, 3b is a right side panel, 4 is a suction grill formed integrally with the front cabinet 2, and 5 is an air outlet fixed to the front cabinet 2. It's the internet.

６は下達する各機能部品を各々固定する基板となる断面
り字状の室外ベース、７は断面逆り字状の仕切板で熱交
換器室８と圧縮機室９とに区画形成しいる。Reference numeral 6 denotes an outdoor base having an inverted-shaped cross section and serving as a substrate for fixing each of the functional parts to be lowered, and 7 a partition plate having an inverted-shaped cross-section, dividing the heat exchanger chamber 8 and the compressor chamber 9 into a heat exchanger chamber 8 and a compressor chamber 9.

１０は圧縮機、１１は送風機用電動機、１２は送風機、
１３ａおよび１３ｂは、各々送風機１２を取り囲むよう
に設けられたＬ字状の凝縮器、１４はこの考案の特徴と
する電気品上箱、１５は電気品箱Ｂである。10 is a compressor, 11 is a blower electric motor, 12 is a blower,
13a and 13b are L-shaped condensers provided so as to surround the blower 12, 14 is an upper electrical box that is a feature of this invention, and 15 is an electrical box B.

電気品下箱１５は前記室外ベース６にネジ止め固定され
ており、電気品上箱１４と電気品下箱１５は圧縮機電動
機用運転キャパシタ１６や送風用電動機速調用温度開閉
器１７、送風機電動機用運転キャパシタ１８などの電気
部品をネジ１９によって互に挟持固定している。The lower electrical box 15 is fixed to the outdoor base 6 with screws, and the upper electrical box 14 and the lower electrical box 15 contain a compressor motor operating capacitor 16, a temperature switch 17 for controlling the speed of the blower motor, and a blower motor. Electrical components such as an operating capacitor 18 are clamped and fixed to each other by screws 19.

２０ａと２０ｂは前記電気品上箱１４の上面に突出形成
されたリブであり、リブ２０ａおよびリブ２０ｂの突端
と前面キャビネット２との隙間２１ａおよび２１ｂをで
きるだけ小さくなるように電気品上箱１４が設置されて
いる。20a and 20b are ribs formed protrudingly on the upper surface of the electrical product upper box 14, and the electrical product upper box 14 is designed so that gaps 21a and 21b between the tip ends of the ribs 20a and 20b and the front cabinet 2 are made as small as possible. is set up.

吸込グリル４を通過した雨滴２２は大抵凝縮器１３ａに
接触し、凝縮器１３ａを伝わってベース６に滴下するが
、一部第４図のように凝縮器１３ａの外表面で跳ね上が
り、電気品上箱１４の方へ飛散する。Most of the raindrops 22 that have passed through the suction grille 4 come into contact with the condenser 13a, travel through the condenser 13a, and drip onto the base 6, but some of them bounce up on the outer surface of the condenser 13a as shown in FIG. It scatters towards box 14.

このままだと雨滴２２は電気品箱Ａの右端に到達し電気
品箱Ａの下部にある電気部品を濡らしてしまうが、リブ
２０ａとリブ２０ｂがある為、殆どリブ２０ａにせきと
められ、一部隊間２１ａを通過した雨滴２２も同じよう
にリブ２０ｂに殆どせきとめられる為、電気部品を濡ら
すことがない。If this continues, the raindrops 22 will reach the right end of the electrical component box A and wet the electrical components at the bottom of the electrical component box A, but since there are ribs 20a and 20b, most of the raindrops 22 will be stopped by the rib 20a, and between one unit and the other. Similarly, most of the raindrops 22 that have passed through 21a are stopped by the ribs 20b, so that they do not wet the electrical components.

又、リブ２０ａによってせきとめられた雨滴２２は電気
品上箱１４の左側に一体形成された傾斜面２３を伝わり
ベース６に滴下し、かつ、リブ２０ｂによってせきとめ
られた雨滴２２はリブ２０ａの一端に設けられた切欠２
４を通過し、同じく傾斜面２３を伝わりベース６に滴下
する。Further, the raindrops 22 blocked by the ribs 20a travel down the slope 23 integrally formed on the left side of the electrical equipment upper box 14 and drip onto the base 6, and the raindrops 22 blocked by the ribs 20b drop onto one end of the ribs 20a. Notch 2 provided
4 and drips onto the base 6 along the inclined surface 23 as well.

このようにこの考案の電気品箱は電気部品を固定するば
かりでなく、降雨の回収機能を有し、電気部品を降雨か
ら保護するという極めて有用なものである。As described above, the electrical component box of this invention not only fixes electrical components, but also has a rain collecting function and protects electrical components from rain, making it extremely useful.

尚、リブの個数を第５図のように、３個以上にすれば更
に効果は増大する。Incidentally, if the number of ribs is three or more as shown in FIG. 5, the effect will be further increased.
