Outdoor unit of refrigerating apparatus

Abstract

An outdoor unit includes a casing having a side surface formed with an inlet port; an outdoor fan arranged above the inlet port in the casing and configured to upwardly blow air; and an outdoor heat exchanger arranged so as to face the inlet port. The outdoor fan includes a fan and a bell mouth provided so as to surround the outer periphery of the fan, and an electric component unit positioned at the periphery of the bell mouth is arranged in the casing.

1 . An outdoor unit of a refrigerating apparatus, comprising:
 a casing having a side surface formed with an air inlet port and including a top panel at an upper part;   an air blower arranged above the air inlet port in the casing and configured to upwardly blow air; and   an outdoor heat exchanger arranged so as to face the air inlet port,   wherein the air blower includes a fan and a bell mouth provided so as to surround an outer periphery of the fan,   an electric component unit positioned at a periphery of the bell mouth is arranged in the casing, and   the electric component unit includes a contact member provided between an upper surface of the electric component unit and the top panel of the casing.   
     
     
         2 - 9 . (canceled) 
     
     
         10 . The outdoor unit of  claim 1 , wherein the contact member is configured to prevent the electric component unit and the top panel of the casing from contacting each other due to vibration. 
     
     
         11 . The outdoor unit of  claim 1 , wherein a sealant sheet member is provided between the contact member and the top panel of the casing. 
     
     
         12 . The outdoor unit of  claim 10 , wherein a sealant sheet member is provided between the contact member and the top panel of the casing. 
     
     
         13 . The outdoor unit of  claim 1 , wherein
 the electric component unit further includes an inlet part which is formed at a side surface of the electric component unit so as to communicate with an outlet side of the air blower and through which air on the outlet side flows into the electric component unit, and
 the contact member is arranged on the upper surface of the electric component unit so as not to overlap with a position right above the inlet part. 
   
     
     
         14 . The outdoor unit of  claim 13 , wherein
 the electric component unit further includes, at the position right above the inlet part on the upper surface of the electric component unit, an end part seal configured to prevent water from entering the inlet part.   
     
     
         15 . The outdoor unit of  claim 14 , wherein the end part seal is formed in dimensions corresponding to an area where the inlet part is formed. 
     
     
         16 . The outdoor unit of  claim 13 , wherein
 the inlet part is formed at the side surface of the electric component unit opposite to a side surface of the electric component unit facing the bell mouth, and   the contact member is formed with an air passage configured to guide the air on the outlet side of the air blower to the inlet part.   
     
     
         17 . The outdoor unit of  claim 1 , wherein
 the electric component unit is arranged at a position at which at least part of the electric component unit overlaps with the bell mouth in a height direction and a lower end part of the electric component unit is above the outdoor heat exchanger.
