Abstract
A new constructive arrangement inserted into a condensing unit provided with bidirectional flow, thus allowing the flow of the machine to be disposed either vertically or horizontally, according to the required application having a base to which an “L” shaped condensing coil is attached, and further receiving a compressor in the center thereof and a side panel on the side thereof, for receiving a structural “L” shaped air scoop, provided with a motor fan on one of the faces thereof that allows the assembly to be closed with said fan being positioned either vertically or horizontally.
Claims20
A constructive arrangement inserted into a condensing unit provided with bidirectional flow, said arrangement comprising:
- a base, where an “L” shaped condensing coil is fixed, and further receiving
- a compressor in a center of the base,
- a side panel forming a sidewall of the condensing unit,
- an air scoop having a structural “L” shape;
- and
- a motor fan mounted on the air scoop and configured to move with the air scoop such that the motor fan may be positioned in a vertical or horizontal orientation relative to the base,
- wherein an upper frontal part of the unit is open to receive the air scoop thereby allowing the condensing unit to be closed when the fan is disposed in either the vertical or horizontal orientation.
A condensing unit for providing bidirectional flow, comprising:
- a base;
- a coil positioned about the base;
- an air scoop positioned about the base;
- the air scoop comprising a first face with a first curved corner, the first face forming a partial sidewall of the condensing unit, and a second face with a second curved corner, the second face forming a partial cover of the condensing unit;
- and
- a fan attached to either the first or second face;
- wherein the air scoop is configured to be positioned such that the fan may be oriented either vertically or horizontally about the coil;
- and
- the first and second faces of the air scoop are substantially planar.
