1. A deflector for a condenser, the condenser having an inlet communicated with exhaust pipes of a compressor, and the deflector being provided at the inlet, wherein the deflector comprises:
a flow guiding structure having a first tube section and a second tube section of increasing diameter, the second tube section being positioned below the first tube section and configured to extend into the condenser when mounted in place, wherein the second tube section comprises two notches symmetrically arranged thereon, each notch corresponding to absence of the second tube section; and
a support assembly for fixing the flow guiding structure at the inlet,
wherein the deflector is configured such that, when the deflector is mounted in the condenser, at least a part of refrigerant gas flow flows through interior of the first tube section, and at least another part of the refrigerant gas flow flows through outer side of the first tube section.
