Abstract

A centrifugal blower for an air conditioner may include a centrifugal fan rotatably coupled to a motor, and a bell mouth guiding air into the centrifugal fan. The centrifugal fan may include a hub fixed to a rotary shaft of the motor, a main plate provided at an outer circumferential surface of the hub, a shroud having a suction opening surrounding the rotary shaft, the shroud positioned opposite the main plate to define a main gas flow path, and a plurality of wings arranged along the circumferential direction of the suction opening between the main plate and the shroud. A rear axial end portion of the bell mouth may be inserted into the shroud through the suction opening so as to form a predetermined radial gap with the suction opening. The rear portion of the bell mouth may include a plurality of alternately formed protruding portions and recessed portions, with the protruding portions and the recessed portions inserted into the shroud.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Art [0002] This application claims priority from Patent Application No. 10-2013-0082135 filed in Korea on Jul. 12, 2013, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference into this application. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to centrifugal blowers, and more particularly to centrifugal blowers with reduced noise and increased efficiency. Background technique [0004] Air conditioners provide cooling or heating to a space using a refrigeration cycle that includes a compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger, an expansion valve, and an indoor heat exchanger. Such an air conditioner may function as a cooler for cooling a space, or as a heater for heating a space, or as an air conditioner for cooling and heating a space. [0005] The air conditioner may include: an indoor unit installed, for example, at the top of an indoor space to be heated / cooled to deliver heated / cooled air into the indoor space; an outd...
