PURPOSE:To contrive to improve the operational performance through a structure wherein a rotating disc with radially extending curved ridges and approach plates, which curve from the scooping-up part of the disc to an outdoor heat exchanger side and are molded integrally with a water receiving tray, are provided. CONSTITUTION:A rotating disc having radially extending curved ridges 2a for scattering condensate 3 is driven by a motor 1. In addition, approach plates 6 curve gradually from a scooping-up part 14 to an outdoor heat exchanger 4 side and are molded integrally with a water receiving tray 7 out of synthetic resin. The condensate 3 released from an indoor heat exchanger 5 is collected to the water receiving tray 7, when a room is cooled and dehumidified during the cooling operation. The condensate 5 is scattered at a scooping-up part 14 by the rotation of the disc 2 as indicated with the arrows A and further scattered by approach plates 6 against an outdoor heat exchanger 4. Finally, the condensate is adhered to the high temperature outdoor heat exchanger 4 and evaporates. Thus, refrigerant is cooled on the outdoor side, resulting in improving the heat exchange capacity on the indoor side. |
