1. An outdoor machine comprising:
a housing that includes a front panel in which an outlet of an air current is formed;
a blower that is provided inside the housing and generates the air current;
a compressor provided inside the housing;
a partition plate that divides a space inside the housing into a compressor chamber in which the compressor is stored and a blower chamber in which the blower is stored;
a bell mouth disposed in an outer periphery of the blower in such a way as to be connected to the outlet, the bell mouth having an edge protruding into the housing;
a control board on which an electric component is mounted, the control board being provided inside the housing;
a heat radiation part that radiates heat generated by the electric component, the heat radiation part being provided in the blower chamber; and
a vent deflector that covers the heat radiation part, and forms a ventilation flue through which the air current flows, wherein
an end of the heat radiation part on a side facing the front panel is located in a region between a virtual plane and the front panel, the virtual plane covering an entire periphery of the edge of the bell mouth and extending in parallel with the front panel, and when viewed from front, the heat radiation part is disposed adjacent to the edge of the bell mouth such that the heat radiation part is located outside the edge of the bell mouth,
the vent deflector is not provided in the region between the virtual plane and the front panel,
the ventilation flue includes a first ventilation flue and a second ventilation flue, and
a distance from an inlet to an outlet of the first ventilation flue is longer than a distance from an inlet to an outlet of the second ventilation flue.
