    摘要: Disclosed herein is a blower blowing air and an outdoor unit of air conditioner having the same. The blower includes a fan, a motor driving the fan, and a motor support member disposed on a flow path, through which air generated by a rotation of the fan flows, to support the motor. The motor support member includes a cross-sectional shape including a maximum width portion having a maximum width in a direction perpendicular to the airflow direction, an upstream portion having a width being increased from the upstream side to the downstream side, and a downstream portion having a width being reduced from the upstream side to the downstream side. A downstream end located downstream of the downstream portion has a width in a direction perpendicular to the airflow direction.

    摘要: Provided is an outdoor unit for an air-conditioning apparatus, including a heat exchanger having heat exchanger cores stacked in a plurality of stages in a vertical direction of the outdoor unit. Each of the heat exchanger cores includes: a plurality of fins arranged in parallel to each other at intervals therebetween; and heat transfer tubes provided to extend through the fins, through which refrigerant is caused to flow. Each of the fins of the heat exchanger includes a deformable portion configured to be deformable by impacts applied to the deformable portion, which is formed at a position where the fins of the upper one of the heat exchanger cores from among the vertically-adjacent heat exchanger cores comes into contact with the fins of the lower one of the heat exchanger cores from among the vertically-adjacent heat exchanger cores.

    摘要: An outdoor unit according to the present invention includes an air-sending-device chamber including a heat exchanger disposed at least on the rear side within an outdoor unit body, a propeller fan having a plurality of blades and disposed on the front side of the heat exchanger, and a bell mouth disposed on the front side of the propeller fan to face an air outlet, a machine chamber in which a compressor is disposed, and a partition plate that separates the air-sending-device chamber and the machine chamber. The partition plate has a protruding shape protruding from the air-sending-device chamber toward the machine chamber. The partition plate has, on the side of the air-sending-device chamber, a recessed area corresponding to the protruding shape. The amount of recess of the recessed area is maximized at a position equal in height to the center of rotation of the propeller fan.
