摘要

An electric blower includes a centrifugal impeller, a diffuser including stationary vanes on a discharge side of the centrifugal impeller, a motor configured to drive the centrifugal impeller, a fan case configured to cover the centrifugal impeller and the diffuser, a housing case joined to the fan case, and return guide vanes that guide air which has been guided by the stationary vanes to an inner surface of the fan case radially inward through a space under the diffuser. The housing case includes an annular lower plate portion located axially below the diffuser. Each return guide vane is continuous with an upper surface of the annular lower plate portion. An upper end of each return guide vane is located axially opposite to the diffuser.
