Blower for air conditioner of automotive vehicles
View Patent ↗The present invention relates to a blower for air conditioner of automotive vehicles capable of striving to increase the blowing volume and reduce noise, and simplifying the structure of the blower by distributing the air come into the inside of an intake duct effectively to an upper blowing wheel and a lower blowing wheel. The blower for air conditioner of automotive vehicles comprises a scroll case formed with upper/lower suction openings at the upper/lower surfaces and a discharge opening at one side; a double suction type centrifugal fan mounted rotatably at the scroll case, and having the upper/lower blowing wheels integrated with a hub plate in the opposite direction, to which a motor is connected; an intake duct with inside/outside air suction openings and an intake door for controlling the opening degree of the inside/outside suction openings, and forming an upper air passage and a side air passage for distributing the air sucked through the inside/outside air suction openings toward the upper/lower suction openings, wherein, a ratio of an air suction cross-sectional area S 1 of the upper suction opening versus a cross-sectional area S 2 +S 3 of the side air passage is 6:4˜8:2.
1. A blower for air conditioner of automotive vehicles comprising scroll case formed with upper/lower suction openings at the upper/lower surfaces and a discharge opening at one side; a double suction type centrifugal fan mounted rotatably at the scroll case, and having the upper/lower blowing wheels integrated with a hub plate in the opposite direction, to which a motor is connected; an intake duct with inside/outside air suction openings and an intake door for controlling the opening degree of the inside/outside suction openings, and forming an upper air passage and a side air passage for distributing the air sucked through the inside/outside air suction openings toward the upper/lower suction opening, a water block wall formed around the motor in the bottom of the intake duct to block the inflow of water or foreign substance toward the motor, and a drain port formed at one side of the bottom in the intake duct to discharge the water concentrated in the bottom of the intake duct toward the air conditioning case: wherein,
a ratio of a cross-sectional area S 1 of the upper suction opening versus a cross-sectional area S 2 +S 3 of the side air passage is 6:4˜8:2 and a ratio of a height H 1 of the upper blowing wheel versus a height H 2 of the lower blowing wheel is 6:4˜8:2.
2. The blower for air conditioner of automotive vehicles according to claim 1 , wherein the scroll case is formed with a dividing plate for dividing the inside thereof into an upper portion and a lower portion on the basis of the hub plate.
3. The blower for air conditioner of automotive vehicles according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the cross-sectional area S 1 of the upper suction opening versus the cross-sectional area S 2 +S 3 of the side air passage is 6.5:3.5˜7.5:2.5.
4. The blower for air conditioner of automotive vehicles according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the cross-sectional area S 1 of the upper suction opening versus the cross-sectional area S 2 +S 3 of the side air passage is identical with a ratio of a height H 1 of the upper blowing wheel versus a height H 2 of the lower blowing wheel.
5. A blower for air conditioner of automotive vehicles comprising scroll case formed with upper/lower suction openings at the upper/lower surfaces and a discharge opening at one side; a double suction type centrifugal fan mounted rotatably at the scroll case, and having the upper/lower blowing wheels integrated with a hub plate in the opposite direction, to which a motor is connected; an intake duct with inside/outside air suction openings and an intake door for controlling the opening degree of the inside/outside suction openings, and forming an upper air passage and a side air passage for distributing the air sucked through the inside/outside air suction openings toward the upper/lower suction opening, a water block wall formed around the motor in the bottom of the intake duct to block the inflow of water or foreign substance toward the motor, and a drain port formed at one side of the bottom in the intake duct to discharge the water concentrated in the bottom of the intake duct toward the air conditioning case: wherein,
a ratio of a cross-sectional area S 1 of the upper suction opening versus a cross-sectional area S 2 +S 3 of the side air passage is about 6:4˜8:2.
