Outdoor Unit Of Air Conditioner

Abstract: Provided is an outdoor unit of an air conditioner. The outdoor unit comprises: a housing which forms an outer shell; a separator which partitions the inside of the housing into a blower room in which a blow fan is provided and a machine room in which a compressor is provided; and an electrical component unit which is fixed to an upper portion of the separator. The electrical component unit includes: a control board provided with a plurality of electronic components arranged on a mounting surface, a plate shaped portion which is attached to some of the plurality of electronic components and which covers said some of the plurality of electronic components, and a heat release member including a large number of fins which extend from the plate shaped portion toward a direction away from the mounting surface; a control board support member which is attached to the control board and which supports a peripheral edge portion of the control board; and a heat release portion protection member and a partition wall portion protection member, which are made of metal, are attached to the control board support member from the side of the mounting surface of the control board and cover the control board support member. The control board support member includes: a slit peripheral edge portion which is provided at a peripheral edge of a slit through which the large number of fins pass and which covers the plate shaped portion of the heat release member; a partition wall portion which extends toward the same direction as that of the large number of fins and which partitions, together with the separator, the inside of the housing into the blower room and the machine room; and a side wall portion which is provided with a pair of first claw portions and a pair of second claw portions and which surrounds the peripheral edge portion of the control board. The heat release portion protection member includes: a first protection portion which is provided at the peripheral edge of the slit thro

Specification

[Claim 1]An air-conditioning apparatus outdoor unit (100) comprising:
a casing constituting an outer shell;
a separator (7) configured to partition an interior portion of the casing into an air-5
sending device room (2) in which an air-sending fan (21) is provided and a machine
room (3) in which a compressor (30) is provided; and
an electrical component unit (40) fixed to an upper part of the separator (7),
wherein
the electrical component unit (40) includes10
a control board (50) including a plurality of electrical components (51) and
a radiating component (52), the plurality of electrical components (51) being placed on a
mounting surface, the radiating component (52) having a plate-shaped portion (52a)
and a plurality of fins (52b), the plate-shaped portion (52a) being attached to a subset of
electrical components (51) of the plurality of electrical components (51) and covering15
the subset of electrical components (51), the plurality of fins (52b) extending from the
plate-shaped portion (52a) in a direction away from the mounting surface,
a control board supporting component (210) made of resin attached to the
control board (50) and supporting a peripheral edge portion of the control board (50),
and20
a radiating portion protecting component (230) and a partition wall portion
protecting component (240) both made of metal, attached to the control board
supporting component (210) from a side of the mounting surface of the control board
(50), and being covered by the control board supporting component (210),
the control board supporting component (210) includes25
a slit peripheral edge portion (217) provided at a peripheral edge of a slit
(217a) through which the plurality of fins (52b) are passed and covering the plate-
shaped portion (52a) of the radiating component (52),
21
a partition wall portion (215) extending in a direction that is same as the
direction in which the plurality of fins (52b) extend and partitioning the interior por
