Abstract:
A blower apparatus includes an impeller and a casing that accommodates the impeller. The casing includes an upper wall including an intake port, a lower wall, a side wall that includes an exhaust port, and a tongue portion connected to the upper wall. The side wall includes a first side wall, and a second side wall disposed downstream in a rotational direction of the impeller relative to the first side wall via the exhaust port. The tongue portion extends from the second side wall toward the first side wall, and includes a lower portion opposed to the lower wall. The lower portion includes a first lower portion on the base end side and a second lower portion on the tip side. A distance between the first lower portion and the lower wall is shorter than a distance between the second lower portion and the lower wall.
