Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an indoor unit for an air conditioner.
  • a conventional indoor unit for an air conditioner includes a heat exchanger having a U shape, a partition with which an opening of the heat exchanger is covered, and a turbo fan surrounded with the heat exchanger and the partition and configured to suck in and blow out air in two directions via the heat exchanger (see, for example, JP 2015-81692 A (Patent Literature 1).
  • the partition has a protrusion extending toward the turbo fan, and the protrusion equalizes airflows directed to blow-out ports in the two directions.
  • Patent Literature 1 JP 2015-81692 A
  • the turbo fan has a center located on a center line of the heat exchanger and a center line of a casing main body, and each of the heat exchanger and the partition has a laterally symmetrical shape. Accordingly, the left airflow and the right airflow are different from each other although the turbo fan rotates in a single direction. Consequently, a high-pressure spot occurs at the partition, which makes unusual noise.
  • the present invention sets out to provide an indoor unit for an air conditioner, the indoor unit being capable of reducing a pressure at a high-pressure spot that occurs at an end of a partition with which an opening of a heat exchanger is covered, to thereby reduce unusual noise.
  • An aspect of the present invention provides an indoor unit for an air conditioner, including:
  • the center of the centrifugal fan configured to rotate in the predetermined rotation direction is located upstream of the current of air between the centrifugal fan and the partition, with respect to the perpendicular bisector of the line connecting the two ends of the partition. Consequently, a clearance between an outer periphery of the centrifugal fan and the downstream-side end of the partition with which an opening of the heat exchanger is covered is larger than a clearance between the outer periphery of the centrifugal fan and the upstream-side end of the partition.
  • This configuration therefore enables reduction in pressure near the downstream-side end of the partition that makes loud unusual noise.
  • This configuration thus enables reduction in pressure at a high-pressure spot that occurs at the end of the partition with which the opening of the heat exchanger is covered, to thereby reduce unusual noise.
  • the casing has a blow-out port at a position opposite to the partition with respect to the heat exchanger.
  • the casing has the blow-out port at the position opposite to the partition with respect to the heat exchanger. Therefore, air from the centrifugal fan is smoothly blown out through the blow-out port via the heat exchanger.
  • the partition is bowed outward beyond the line connecting the two ends in plan view, and the centrifugal fan partially overlaps a region surrounded with the partition and the line connecting the two ends of the partition.
  • the partition is bowed outward beyond the line connecting the two ends of the partition in plan view.
  • the centrifugal fan partially overlaps the region surrounded with the partition and the line connecting the two ends of the partition. Therefore, the centrifugal fan rotates along the partition bowed outward, and the partition smoothly guides air from the centrifugal fan, which contributes to reduction in space for housing the components in the casing.
  • the heat exchanger includes:
  • the third heat exchange part located at the downstream side of the first heat exchange part with respect to the rotation direction of the centrifugal fan is shorter in length than the second heat exchange part located at the upstream side of the first heat exchange part with respect to the rotation direction of the centrifugal fan. Therefore, pipe connection parts may be connected to an end of the third heat exchange part. In other words, a space for connecting pipes is ensured in the casing.
  • the clearance between the outer periphery of the centrifugal fan and the downstream-side end of the partition is made larger than the clearance between the outer periphery of the centrifugal fan and the upstream-side end of the partition.
  • an indoor unit for an air conditioner is arranged such that a centrifugal fan configured to rotate in a predetermined rotation direction is disposed with a center thereof located upstream of a current of air between the centrifugal fan and a partition, with respect to a perpendicular bisector of a line connecting two ends of the partition, whereby it is possible to reduce a pressure at a high-pressure spot that may occur at an end of the partition with which an opening of a heat exchanger is covered, to thereby reduce unusual noise.

  • FIG. 9 illustrates the indoor unit from which the flap 20 is detached.

  • the heat exchanger 40 having a U shape in plan view includes the first heat exchange part 41 extending in parallel with the first wall 11 of the casing main body 1, the second heat exchange part 42 seamlessly elongated from a first end of the first heat exchange part 41, and the third heat exchange part 43 seamlessly elongated from a second end of the first heat exchange part 41.
  • a clearance between the second heat exchange part 42 and the third wall 13 is tapered from the first heat exchange part 41 toward a distal end, or tip, of the second heat exchange part 42.
  • a clearance between the third heat exchange part 43 and the fourth wall 14 is tapered from the first heat exchange part 41 toward a distal end, or tip, of the third heat exchange part 43.
  • a distance between the second heat exchange part 42 and the third heat exchange part 43 gradually increases toward the two ends of the heat exchanger 40.
  • the blow-out port 10 includes a first blow-out port part 10a having a rectangular shape and extending along the first wall 11 (see FIG. 8 ) of the casing main body 1, and second blow-out port parts 10b respectively elongated from two ends of the first blow-out port part 10a toward the second wall 12 (see FIG. 8 ) of the casing main body 1.

  • the center O1 of the turbo fan 30 (centrifugal fan) configured to rotate in the predetermined rotation direction (R1) is located upstream of the current of air (R2) between the turbo fan 30 and the partition plate 50, with respect to the perpendicular bisector L2 of the line L1 connecting the two ends of the partition plate 50 (partition). Consequently, a clearance between an outer periphery of the turbo fan 30 and the downstream-side end of the partition plate 50 with which the opening of the heat exchanger 40 is covered is larger than a clearance between the outer periphery of the turbo fan 30 and the upstream-side end of the partition plate 50.
  • This configuration therefore enables reduction in pressure near the downstream-side end of the partition plate 50 that makes loud unusual noise.
  • This configuration thus enables reduction in pressure at a high-pressure spot that may occur at the end of the partition plate 50 with which the opening of the heat exchanger 40 is covered, to thereby reduce unusual noise.
  • the inventors of the present invention performed a simulation on the condition that the center O1 of the turbo fan 30 is located upstream of the current of air (R2) between the turbo fan 30 and the partition plate 50, with respect to the perpendicular bisector L2 of the line L1 connecting the two ends of the partition plate 50. It was confirmed by this simulation that the indoor unit having the configuration described above reduces a pressure near the downstream-side end of the partition plate 50, and therefore reduces a pressure at a high-pressure spot that occurs at the end of the partition plate 50 with which the opening of the heat exchanger 40 is covered, to thereby reduce unusual noise.
  • FIG. 10 illustrates a pressure distribution obtained from the simulation performed on the indoor unit according to the first embodiment.
  • FIG. 11 illustrates the pressure distribution seen along line XI-XI in FIG. 10 . As illustrated in FIGS. 10 and 11 , a pressure at a high-pressure spot is reduced, the high-pressure spot occurring near the downstream-side end of the partition plate 50 with which the opening of the heat exchanger 30 is covered.
  • the panel 2 has the blow-out port 10 at the position opposite to the partition plate 50 with respect to the heat exchanger 40. Therefore, air from the turbo fan 30 is smoothly blown out through the blow-out port 10 via the heat exchanger 40.

Therefore, the turbo fan 30 rotates along the partition plate 50 bowed outward, and the partition plate 50 smoothly guides air from the turbo fan 30. Also, reduction in space for housing the components in the casing main body 1 is achievable.
  • the third heat exchange part 43 elongated from the first heat exchange part 41 of the heat exchanger 40 at the downstream side in the rotation direction of the turbo fan 30 is shorter in length than the second heat exchange part 42 elongated from the first heat exchange part 41 at the upstream side in the rotation direction of the turbo fan 30. Therefore, the pipe connection parts 5 and 6 are connected to the end of the third heat exchange part 43. In other words, a space for connecting pipes is ensured in the casing main body 1.
  • the clearance between the outer periphery of the turbo fan 30 and the downstream-side end of the partition plate 50 is made larger than the clearance between the outer periphery of the turbo fan 30 and the upstream-side end of the partition plate 50.
