An outdoor unit according to the present invention includes: a casing; and a heat exchanger accommodated in the casing. The casing includes a bottom panel on a bottom surface of the casing. The bottom panel includes: a first bottom plate portion formed below the heat exchanger; and a second bottom plate portion formed on the bottom panel at a portion other than the first bottom plate portion. A lower end of the heat exchanger is arranged at a position above any point on an upper surface of the first bottom plate portion and below any point on an upper surface of the second bottom plate portion.

An outdoor unit is an outdoor unit to which a refrigerant pipe used to circulate refrigerant between an indoor unit and the outdoor unit, the outdoor unit including a compressor and an outdoor heat exchanger. The outdoor unit includes: a rectangular bottom panel disposed below the compressor and the outdoor heat exchanger, the rectangular bottom panel supporting the compressor and the outdoor heat exchanger; a peripheral panel disposed on a peripheral portion of the bottom panel and positioned upright on the bottom panel; a fixing panel disposed at a corner portion of the bottom panel to be located at an inner side of the peripheral panel and positioned upright on the bottom panel; and a valve which is fixed to the fixing panel and to which the refrigerant pipe is connected.

A heat source side unit for an air conditioning apparatus includes a machine room in which a compressor is accommodated, an air-sending unit room in which an air-sending unit is accommodated, a separator for partitioning a space into the machine room and the air-sending unit room, a reactor installed in the machine room, and a reactor mounting member fixed to the separator on a side of the machine room and on which the reactor is mounted, and the reactor mounting member includes a first mounting unit and a second mounting unit corresponding to each of the reactors with the sizes different from each other, and on the reactor mounting member, the reactor is selectively mounted on either one of the first mounting unit and the second mounting unit corresponding to the size of the reactor.

Provided is an outdoor unit of an air conditioner capable of obtaining stable air blowing performance without enlarging a blower fan and decreasing the amount of air per unit area (wind velocity distribution) passing through the heat exchanger even if the capacity of the heat exchanger is enlarged by optimizing a relative arrangement and a configuration of a heat exchanger and a blower and effectively utilizing the wind of the blower which is conventionally wasted. The rotation shaft of the first blower is disposed closer to the center line in the lateral direction of the housing than the center line in a lateral direction of the left blower chamber, and the rotation shaft of the second blower is disposed closer to the center line in the lateral direction of the housing than the center line in a lateral direction of the right blower chamber.

Provided is an outdoor unit of an air conditioner capable of obtaining efficient air blowing performance by optimizing a length dimension of a heat exchanger and a relative position of a blower. A front end portion is disposed closer to the left side panel than a rotation shaft of the first blower, and a rear end portion is disposed closer to the right side panel than a rotation shaft of the first blower in the first heat exchanger, and a front end portion is disposed closer to the right side panel than a rotation shaft of the second blower, and a rear end portion is disposed closer to the left side panel than a rotation shaft of the second blower in the second heat exchanger.

Provided is an outdoor unit of an air conditioner which has good assembly stability by more cheaply and easily increasing mechanical strength of a housing, and in which the cost thereof is further suppressed by reducing the number of components such as screws, as an outdoor unit of a large air conditioner including two blowers. The left front pillar and the right front pillar are fixed between the front beam and the base panel hung between the front ends of the left side panel and the right side panel, and the rear pillar is fixed between the rear beam and the base panel hung between the rear ends of the left side panel and the right side panel. Therefore, the front beam and the rear beam are prevented from being distorted or bent, and thus mechanical strength of the entire housing is enhanced.

There is disclosed an outdoor unit an outdoor unit that may attach a cover to a case by using a magnetic member and have an empty space formed between the case and the cover as large as the thickness of the magnetic member, wherein air or a sound-proof or meta material may be filled in the empty space and a cover for covering the case of the outdoor unit may include several pieces that are detachably connected with each other like Lego pieces, and the cover may be attached to the other area of an outer surface of the outdoor unit except the area having an inlet for sucking external air and an outlet hole for discharging the external air drawn into the outdoor unit via the inlet outside again.

An outdoor unit of an air-conditioning apparatus includes a compressor, a heat exchanger, and a controller. The controller includes a compressor driving circuit configured to drive the compressor, a harmonic suppressing unit configured to suppress harmonics in the compressor driving circuit, and a housing containing the compressor driving circuit and the harmonic suppressing unit. The housing has a first section having ventilation holes that allow communication between the outside and the inside, and a second section constituting a frame outside the first section. The first section contains the harmonic suppressing unit and a fan configured to blow air from inside the first section to the outside through the ventilation holes. The second section contains the compressor driving circuit.
