Original Abstract Submitted

A fan motor includes a motor mount, a motor part accommodated in an inner space of the motor mount, and an impeller disposed above the motor mount. The motor mount defines: an air discharge opening configured to discharge air discharged from the impeller to an outer space of the motor mount; a cooling flow path outlet disposed at the upper side of the motor mount at a position between the impeller and the air discharge opening; and a first cooling flow path inlet disposed at a position below the air discharge opening and the cooling flow path outlet. The fan motor further includes a guide that is configured to direct, to an upward direction, at least a portion of air that is discharged through the air discharge opening and introduced to the inner space through the first cooling flow path inlet.
