An outdoor unit of an air conditioner includes a housing including an outlet, a fan disposed inside the housing, and a guide guiding air flowing by the fan, wherein the guide includes an inflow portion provided to guide air introduced into the housing to the fan and a diffuser extending from the inflow portion to guide air passing through the fan to the outlet. The inflow portion includes a duct connected to the diffuser, a bell mouth disposed on an upstream side further than the duct and configured such that a width of an inlet end of the bell mouth is wider than a width of an outlet end of the bell mouth, and a guide vane formed on the bell mouth and configured to guide air introduced into the fan.

Outdoor unit of air conditioner

An outdoor unit of an air conditioner having an improved structure to efficiently cool a heating unit of electronic parts therein, a cooling unit applied to the outdoor unit, and a method for manufacturing the cooling unit are provided. The outdoor unit of an air conditioner includes a case, a compressor for compressing a refrigerant, a condenser for condensing a refrigerant discharged from the compressor, electronic parts arranged in the case; and a cooling unit arranged to cool the electronic parts, wherein the cooling unit comprises a heat radiation member arranged to receive and cool down heat produced from the electronic parts, and to come into contact with at least a part of a cooling pipe in which the refrigerant flows, and a plurality of heat transfer fins formed at least some part of the heat radiation member.

In an air-conditioning system, a gaseous refrigerant remaining in a reservoir can be discharged from the reservoir even when a cooling operation has started and the reservoir is being filled with a liquid refrigerant. Therefore, the reservoir can be filled with the liquid refrigerant at a faster speed.

Air-conditioning system

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an outdoor unit of an air conditioner configured to cool a heating unit by making contact with the heating unit, a cooling unit applied thereto, and a method for manufacturing the cooling unit. An outdoor unit of an air conditioner comprises a compressor configured to compress refrigerant; a condenser configured to condense the refrigerant discharged from the compressor; a control box provided with an electronic component configured to control an outdoor unit of an air conditioner; and a cooling unit configured to cool a heating unit by making contact with the heating unit of the electronic component, wherein the cooling unit comprises a heat radiating member having one side thereof make contact with the heating unit; and a refrigerant pipe extended by penetrating through the heat radiating member and in which refrigerant is moved.

Outdoor unit of air conditioner, cooling unit applied thereto, and method for manufacturing cooling unit

Provided are an outdoor unit of an air conditioner that detects snow that piles up on the outdoor unit of the air conditioner and a method of controlling the same. When a detection device is installed in the outdoor unit and snow piles up in a snow cover detection area included in the detection device, it is detected using an optical sensor whether snow cover occurs. A value detected by the optical sensor is transmitted to a controller, and the controller compares the value with a default value, and when the controller receives a value different from the default value, the controller controls a fan driving unit to drive a fan. Wind generated by driving the fan removes snow that piles up in the snow cover detection area, a fan guard and a discharge port to prevent the fan from malfunctioning due to accumulated snow.
