Abstract

A heat exchange unit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a housing; a heat exchange device disposed on an inside of the housing; a coolant pipe connected to the heat exchange device, and a blower that has a motor and that blows air to the heat exchange device, wherein the housing has a hollow wall that is disposed between the motor and the coolant pipe.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A heat exchange unit comprising:
 a housing;   a heat exchange device disposed on an inside of the housing;   a coolant pipe connected to the heat exchange device;   a blower that has a motor and that blows air to the heat exchange device, and   a controller that controls the motor, wherein   the housing has:   a first room that accommodates the heat exchange device,   a second room that accommodates the controller,   a partitioning wall that partitions the first room and the second room, and   a hollow wall that is disposed between the motor and the coolant pipe, and   the hollow wall is connected to the partitioning wall.   
     
     
         2 . The heat exchange unit according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the hollow wall is located above the motor in a vertical direction.   
     
     
         3 . The heat exchange unit according to  claim 2 , wherein
 a top surface of the hollow wall diagonally inclines with respect to a horizontal plane that is orthogonal with the vertical direction.   
     
     
         4 . The heat exchange unit according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the hollow wall has an opening.   
     
     
         5 . The heat exchange unit according to  claim 4 , wherein
 an inside surface of the hollow wall has an inclined surface that comes closer to the opening as the inside surface of the hollow wall approaches a bottom in the vertical direction.   
     
     
         6 . The heat exchange unit according to  claim 4  further comprising:
 a controller that controls the motor, wherein 
 the opening opens to the inside of the second room. 
 
     
     
         7 . The heat exchange unit according to  claim 4 , wherein
 a thermal insulating material that covers the opening.   
     
     
         8 . The heat exchange unit according to  claim 1  further comprising:
 a drain pan located on a bottom of the heat exchange device in the vertical direction, wherein 
 the hollow wall is located above the drain pan in the vertical direction. 
 
     
     
         9 . The heat exchange unit according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the housing has a motor fixing part that fixes the motor, and   the motor fixing part has the hollow wall.   
     
     
         10 . The heat exchange unit according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the heat exchange unit is an indoor unit of an air conditioner.   
     
     
         11 . The air conditioner further comprising:
 the heat exchange unit according to claim  10 , and   an outdoor unit.
