The outdoor unit 101 includes a compressor 105, a four-way valve 106, an outdoor heat exchanger 107, and an expansion valve 108.

The compressor 105 compresses and discharges the sucked refrigerant. The compressor 105 may change the capacity of the refrigerant to be delivered per unit time of the compressor 105 by arbitrarily changing the operating frequency by, for example, an inverter circuit.

The four-way valve 106 is a valve that switches the flow of the refrigerant between cooling operation and heating operation, for example.

The outdoor heat exchanger 107 exchanges heat between the refrigerant and outdoor air. The outdoor heat exchanger 107 functions as a condenser during the cooling operation, and condenses and liquefies the refrigerant. The outdoor heat exchanger 107 functions as an evaporator during the heating operation, and evaporates and gasifies the refrigerant.

The expansion valve 108 is a flow rate control valve, and decompresses and expands the refrigerant. When the expansion valve 108 is formed of, for example, an electronic expansion valve, the opening degree can be adjusted based on an instruction from a control device or the like, not shown.

The indoor unit 102 has an indoor heat exchanger 109. The indoor heat exchanger 109 performs heat exchange between air to be air-conditioned and refrigerant, for example. The indoor heat exchanger 109 functions as an evaporator during the cooling operation, and evaporates and gasifies the refrigerant. The indoor heat exchanger 109 functions as a condenser during the heating operation, and condenses and liquefies the refrigerant.

With the air conditioning apparatus 100 configured as described above, the flow of the refrigerant can be switched by the four-way valve 106 of the outdoor unit 101, and cooling operation or heating operation can be achieved.

The side insulator 21 has the same height as the upper end 21a except for the position where the reactor 14 is disposed. As shown in fig. 6 and 7, the upper end portions 21a having the same height are evenly distributed in 3 places in the circumference of the side insulator 21 that is wound up around the compressor 105 in a well-balanced manner, so that the upper insulator 22 can be placed thereon without falling. The upper end portion 21b of the side insulator 21, which is the portion where the reactor 14 is disposed, shown in fig. 6 and 7 by hatching, is formed to have a height lower than that of the other upper end portion 21a so as to avoid the reactor 14.

As shown in fig. 5, 6, and 7, the side insulator 21 is one sheet. The side insulator 21 has an overlapping portion 21e that overlaps both the inner end 21c and the outer end 21d in the right direction R, which is a part of the side of the compressor 105. The overlapping portion 21e is formed by extending the outer end 21d in the back surface direction B than the inner end 21c. As shown in fig. 6, the overlapping portion 21e is disposed on the back surface side of the side panel 7, and has a flame-proof function of burning and spreading flame inside the outdoor unit 101 through the gas refrigerant pipe 103 and the liquid refrigerant pipe 104 connected to the indoor unit 102.

Further, the side sound insulator 21 may be configured not by one sheet but by overlapping or joining a plurality of different members.

Fig. 9 is a side view showing the inside of the machine room 9 of the outdoor unit 101 of the air-conditioning apparatus 100 according to embodiment 1 of the present invention, except for the side sound insulator 21, viewed from the right direction R.

As shown in fig. 8 and 9, the upper insulator 22 surrounds at least a part of the reactor 14, and is placed on the upper end 21a of the side insulator 21 at the same height except for the position where the reactor 14 is disposed.

In the upper insulator 22, notches 22a are formed corresponding to the periphery of the connection terminals 14a protruding from the upper surface of the reactor 14. The upper insulator 22 combines the cut-out portion 22a with the periphery of the connection terminal 14a, and covers the portion of the upper surface of the reactor 14 other than the protruding connection terminal 14a.

Further, the upper insulator 22 may cover at least a part of the upper surface of the reactor 14. Alternatively, the upper insulator 22 may cover at least a portion of the reactor 14 such as the side portion thereof.

Further, the upper insulator 22 may be formed not by one sheet but by stacking or joining a plurality of different members. The upper insulator 22 may be formed of a member having a thickness only at a portion surrounding the reactor 14, and may be formed of a member having a small thickness at the other portion. In addition, the upper sound insulator 22 may be formed by attaching a plurality of discrete pieces to a tape or sheet in a dispersed manner. The inner surface of the upper sound insulator 22 may have a concave-convex shape for improving sound absorption. The material of the upper insulator 22 may be any of a sound absorbing material, a sound insulating material, and a sound insulating material, such as a sheet, a plate, polyurethane, sponge, cloth, or glass wool, and more preferably has heat resistance. In addition, the material of the upper sound insulator 22 is preferably waterproof in at least one layer over the entire surface thereof in order to prevent infiltration of dew condensation water. The upper insulator 22 may be integrated with the side insulator 21, for example, as a sheet or the like integrated with the side insulator 21.

Fig. 10 is a perspective view showing a reactor 14 fixed to the separator 10 according to embodiment 1 of the present invention. Fig. 11 is a perspective view of partition plate 10 according to embodiment 1 of the present invention, viewed from the machine room 9 side. Fig. 12 is a perspective view of partition plate 10 according to embodiment 1 of the present invention, as viewed from the heat exchanger chamber 8 side. Fig. 13 is a plan view showing the partition plate 10 according to embodiment 1 of the present invention.

As shown in fig. 10, the reactor 14 is fixed to the machine chamber 9 side of the partition plate 10. The reactor 14 is disposed at an intermediate position in the vertical direction of the partition plate 10 in the upward direction U of the compressor 105.

As shown in fig. 11, 12, and 13, the separator 10 has a cooling mechanism on the back surface of the reactor 14 at its fixed portion. The cooling mechanism is a cooling hole 10a formed through the partition plate 10 in a region in the back surface portion of the reactor 14 fixing portion of the partition plate 10. The partition plate 10 is bent at a fixing portion of the reactor 14 in the ventilation direction a shown in fig. 13 so that the machine chamber 9 side protrudes toward the heat exchanger chamber 8 side, and is formed flat only at the fixing portion of the reactor 14. The bent portion 10b bent so that the machine chamber 9 side at the fixing portion of the reactor 14 protrudes toward the heat exchanger chamber 8 side makes it easy for the wind of the heat exchanger chamber 8 to blow to the back surface of the reactor 14. The flat portion 10c as the fixing portion of the reactor 14 brings the back surface of the reactor 14 into complete contact with the partition plate 10, and improves the cooling capacity by the wind of the heat exchanger compartment 8 through the cooling hole 10a.

The cooling mechanism may have another structure. The cooling mechanism may be fins or the like disposed on the heat exchanger chamber 8 side of the partition plate 10.

A combination of a clearance hole and a slit for taking out a wiring connected to the compressor 105 is also provided in the front direction F of the upper insulator 22.

In the through hole 22b, only the front end portion of the connection terminal 14a of the reactor 14 may be bent and extended in the upward direction U to protrude.

< modification 2 >

Fig. 16 is a plan view showing a side insulator 21 surrounding a compressor 105 according to modification 2 of embodiment 1 of the present invention. As shown in fig. 16, the side insulator 21 may be formed in a round tubular shape without the overlapping portion 21e and the side end portions. The cylindrical side insulator 21 has an upper end 21a having the same height as the upper end 21b indicated by hatching where the reactor 14 is disposed.

< Effect of embodiment 1 >

According to embodiment 1, the outdoor unit 101 of the air conditioning apparatus 100 includes the machine room 9. The outdoor unit 101 of the air conditioner 100 includes a compressor 105 disposed at the bottom in the machine room 9. The outdoor unit 101 of the air conditioner 100 includes a reactor 14 which is disposed in the machine room 9 at a height equal to or greater than the height of the compressor 105 and rectifies the current supplied to the compressor 105. The outdoor unit 101 of the air conditioner 100 has a height as high as the reactor 14, and surrounds the side insulator 21 of the compressor 105. The outdoor unit 101 of the air conditioner 100 includes an upper insulator 22 surrounding at least a part of the reactor 14 and placed on the side insulator 21.

According to this structure, the side insulator 21 is at a height up to the reactor 14 and surrounds the compressor 105. Further, the upper insulator 22 surrounds at least a part of the reactor 14 and is placed on the side insulator 21. Thereby, at least a part of the reactor 14 is surrounded by the side insulator 21 and the upper insulator 22 together with the compressor 105. Therefore, the electromagnetic sound generated by the reactor 14 can be suppressed together with the driving sound of the compressor 105. Further, it is not necessary to cover the lower side of the electric substrate 13 with a case made of a metal plate, and the machine chamber 9 is not limited to be narrow because there is no case. Further, since a case made of a metal plate is not used, the cost can be reduced. Therefore, while the electromagnetic sound of the reactor 14 is suppressed together with the driving sound of the compressor 105, the space of the machine chamber 9 can be prevented from being limited to be narrow, and cost reduction can be achieved.

According to embodiment 1, the upper insulator 22 covers at least a part of the upper surface of the reactor 14.

According to this structure, at least a part of the upper surface of the reactor 14 is surrounded by the side insulator 21 and the upper insulator 22 together with the compressor 105. Therefore, the electromagnetic sound generated by the reactor 14 is further suppressed together with the driving sound of the compressor 105. Further, the upper insulator 22 can suppress heat dissipation from the reactor 14 to the electrical substrate 13 disposed above.

According to embodiment 1, a connection terminal 14a to which wiring from the electric substrate 13 is connected is provided so as to protrude from the upper surface of the reactor 14. In the upper insulator 22, a cutout 22a is formed corresponding to the periphery of the connection terminal 14a. The upper insulator 22 combines the cut-out portion 22a with the periphery of the connection terminal 14a, and covers the portion of the upper surface of the reactor 14 other than the protruding connection terminal 14a.

According to this structure, the upper insulator 22 covers the portion other than the connection terminal 14a. Therefore, the electromagnetic sound generated by the reactor 14 can be further suppressed together with the driving sound of the compressor 105. Further, the upper insulator 22 can further suppress heat dissipation from the reactor 14 to the electrical substrate 13 disposed above.

According to embodiment 1, the upper insulator 22 completely covers the upper surface of the reactor 14.

According to this structure, the upper insulator 22 completely covers the upper surface of the reactor 14. Therefore, the electromagnetic sound generated by the reactor 14 can be shielded together with the driving sound of the compressor 105. In addition, the heat radiation from the reactor 14 to the electrical substrate 13 disposed above can be blocked by the upper insulator 22.

According to embodiment 1, the side insulator 21 has the same height of the upper end 21a except for the portion where the reactor 14 is disposed. The upper insulator 22 is placed on the upper end 21a of the side insulator 21 at the same height except for the location where the reactor 14 is disposed.

According to this structure, the upper insulator 22 can be stably placed on the side insulator 21. This improves the sound insulation performance of the side insulator 21 and the upper insulator 22. This can suppress electromagnetic noise generated by the reactor 14 together with the driving noise of the compressor 105.

According to embodiment 1, outdoor unit 101 of air conditioning apparatus 100 includes partition plate 10 that partitions the interior into machine chamber 9 and heat exchanger chamber 8. The reactor 14 is fixed to the separator 10.

With this configuration, the installation step and the wiring step of the reactor 14 are completed before the casing 1 of the outdoor unit 101 is covered, and the outdoor unit 101 can be easily manufactured.

According to embodiment 1, the partition plate 10 has a cooling hole 10a as a cooling mechanism in a back surface portion of a fixed portion of the reactor 14.

With this configuration, the cooling hole 10a can cool the reactor 14 from the back surface. Thus, even if the reactor 14 generates heat in the space surrounded by the side insulator 21 and the upper insulator 22, the reactor 14 can be cooled without enclosing the heat.

According to embodiment 1, the cooling mechanism is a cooling hole 10a formed through the partition plate 10 in a region in the back surface portion of the fixed portion of the reactor 14.

According to this configuration, the reactor 14 can be cooled from the back side by the cooling holes 10a formed in the separator 10. Thus, even if the reactor 14 generates heat in the space surrounded by the side insulator 21 and the upper insulator 22, the reactor 14 can be cooled with a simple structure, and the heat is not confined.

According to embodiment 1, the partition plate 10 is bent at the bent portion 10b so as to protrude from the machine room 9 side at the fixing portion of the reactor 14 in the ventilation direction a, and is formed as the flat portion 10c only at the fixing portion of the reactor 14.

According to this configuration, in order to perform heat exchange in outdoor unit 101, the wind flowing in ventilation direction a easily blows to reactor 14 at the bent portion of bent portion 10b of partition plate 10, that is, at the fixed portion of reactor 14. This allows the reactor 14 to be efficiently cooled by the wind flowing into the outdoor unit 101. In addition, since the separator 10 is formed as the flat portion 10c only at the fixing portion of the reactor 14, the reactor 14 can be easily fixed to the separator 10.

According to embodiment 1, the side insulator 21 is one sheet.

With this structure, the side insulator 21 can be simply configured.
