  • Patent number: 7971448
    Abstract: An air conditioner includes a heat-exchanger positioned in an outdoor unit and configured to conduct heat-exchange between air provided from outside of the outdoor unit and a refrigerant. The air conditioner also includes a fan configured to generate a flow of the air that is from the heat-exchanger to an outlet of the outdoor unit. The air conditioner further includes a driving unit configured to provide a driving force to the fan. In addition, the air conditioner includes a first member positioned in the flow of the air generated by the fan and a second member configured to guide a flow of the air to reduce collision between the air and the first member when the fan is operated.

  • Publication number: 20090229290
    Abstract: Provided is an outdoor unit of an air conditioner. In the outdoor unit, when an anti-vibration member is placed on the top surface of a base pan forming the bottom surface of the outdoor unit, the anti-vibration member is guided by a guide member disposed on the top surface of the base pan. In a state where a portion of the anti-vibration member is inserted through a base plate of a compressor, the base pan, the anti-vibration member, and the compressor are fixed using a coupling member. Therefore, the compressor can be fixed more easily and simply.

  • Patent number: 7527484
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a muffler of a scroll compressor. The muffler includes a first muffler having a pair of chambers defined above an outlet of a fixed scroll to communicate with the outlet and a gas passage hole formed at the center of an upper end thereof, and a second muffler located around the first muffler to be spaced apart from the gas passage hole of the first muffler and having a chamber including one or more guidance paths of the fixed scroll. The muffler can achieve reduction of operational noise, sufficient separation of oil contained in discharge gas, and efficient isolation between a discharge pressure inside the muffler and outside suction pressure.

  • Patent number: 7390180
    Abstract: A hermetic compressor uses an oil pump that includes a trochoid gear. Therefore, regardless of the rotation speed of a driving motor of the compressor, a sufficient amount of oil can always be pumped. The oil pump unit may include a plurality of suction holes with openings at different heights. If the refrigerant and oil separate, at least one of the openings will admit oil into the oil pump unit, to ensure lubricating oil is supplied to the moving parts of the compressor.
