Disclosed is an air conditioner including a housing having a suction port and a discharge port, a discharge panel having a plurality of discharge holes and disposed at the discharge port, a blowing fan provided inside the housing, and a reinforcing member disposed at a rear of the discharge panel to support the discharge panel. With this configuration, it is possible to prevent the discharge panel from being deformed by pressing, and to minimize the exposure of the inside of the air conditioner through the discharge hole of the discharge panel.

This invention relates to an apparatus (10) for cleaning a helical member (52) such as a tabulator blade. The apparatus comprises opposed scrubbing brushes (32, 34) for removing deposits from the helical faces of the helical member (52) as it is passed between opposed bristles of the scrubbing brushes (32, 34). The opposed scrubbing brushes (32, 34) are mounted with the apparatus via a rotatable bearing (12) such that as the helical faces are reciprocated between the brushes, the continuously curving profile of the helical member (52) causes the brushes to rotate. Accordingly, the opposed scrubbing brushes (32, 34) maintain good contact with the helical surfaces thereby simplifying and improving the removal of deposits.

An online cleaning system for tube and shell heat exchangers is presented. The system includes a positioner, a plunger, an umbilical cleaner, and a motor. The cleaning system cleans the tubes while the heat exchanger remains in operation. The cleaning system locates and isolates a single tube via rotating and translating mechanical actions and inserts the umbilical cleaner into the tube, which may clean the tube via rotational movement or via sonication. The cleaning system may further clean the outer surface of the tubes of the heat exchanger.
