Water that is inclined and forms an opening at a portion below the air circulation port of the cabinet, and falls along the inner surface side of the blade and the inner surface side and outer surface side of the cabinet. The guide plates put led to the reservoir portion and the one end is an air conditioner according to the point provided by the other end side is projected to the outside is extended on the container portion in the cabinet through the opening.

[Action]

In the air conditioner according to the present invention, since the blades are arranged so as to be inclined so as to be able to face water droplets scattered in the circumferential direction of the fan as it rotates, the blades scatter as the fan rotates. By hitting the feathers,
It does not leak out of the air conditioner through the air circulation port.

Furthermore, the water droplets that fall along the inner surface side of the wing plate and the inner surface side and outer surface side of the cabinet are reliably guided into the storage section by the guide plate provided below the air circulation port.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings to provide an understanding of the present invention. In addition, the following embodiment is an example in which the present invention is embodied, and does not limit the technical scope of the present invention.

Here, FIG. 1 shows a structure of a main part of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention, in which FIG. 1 (a) is a front sectional view and FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of an arrow A in FIG.

Moreover, the same reference numerals are used for the elements common to the conventional air conditioner 1 shown in FIG. 2, and the detailed description thereof will be omitted.

The air conditioner 20 according to this embodiment is shown in FIG.
As shown in (b), the basic structure is substantially the same as that of the conventional air conditioner 1, and the difference from the air conditioner 1 is that the blade 21 provided in the air circulation port 10 is replaced by the outdoor fan. 6
Is inclined toward the inside of the cabinet 8 so as to be able to face water droplets scattered in the circumferential direction of the cabinet 8, and an opening 13 is formed in the cabinet 8 at a position below the air circulation port 10. Then, a guide plate 22 for introducing water drops that have fallen along the inner surface side of the wing plate 21 and the inner surface side and outer surface side of the cabinet 8 to the bottom portion of the substrate 9,
That is, one end thereof is projected to the outside through the opening 13 and the other end side thereof is extended on the substrate 9 in the cabinet 8 to be inclined and arranged.
