An air filtration and air purification apparatus comprising: a first air channel; a second air channel; a divider that separates the first air channel from the second air channel; a first filter located in first air channel; a first filter located in the second air channel; a first air blower configured to pull air from the ambient environment generally into the first air channel, moving said air through the first filter, and returning said air into the ambient environment, creating generally a first air stream; a second air blower configured to pull air from the ambient environment generally into the second air channel, moving said air through the second filter and returning said air into the ambient environment, creating generally a second air stream; a control system that controls the activation and deactivation of the first and second air blower.

Air conditioner units and methods for providing make-up air are provided. An air conditioner unit includes an outdoor heat exchanger, an indoor heat exchanger and a bulkhead. The air conditioner unit further includes a vent aperture defined in a rear wall of the bulkhead. The air conditioner unit further includes a dehumidification system, the dehumidification system including an evaporator assembly and a condenser assembly. The evaporator assembly is configured for removing heat from outdoor air flowing therethrough. The evaporator assembly is in fluid communication with the vent aperture for flowing outdoor air from the evaporator assembly through the vent aperture. The condenser assembly is configured for adding heat to outdoor air flowing therethrough. The condenser assembly is spaced from the vent aperture for flowing outdoor air from the condenser assembly into the outdoor portion.

A variable refrigerant package air conditioner is shown that is easy to install in new construction with a unique base that causes collected mixture that overflows to drain outside the building. A control system is shown that has motors and compressor that are pulse width modulated so the air conditioner is infinitely variable while maintaining the highest possible power factor. Dehumidification of outside air occurs as it is mixed with inside air. By gradually approaching a temperature set point and even reheating after dehumidification, moisture is removed from the room. A snorkel that delivers fresh air to be mixed with inside entering air in front of the evaporator for a maximum dehumidification is also shown.

An air-conditioning apparatus, for treating air in enclosed environments, endowed with a constructive arrangement capable of absorbing vibrations of its inner components. The air-conditioning apparatus includes at least a cabinet, arranged to accommodate internal components of the apparatus, endowed with at least an outer face. The apparatus includes at least an absorber capable of absorbing vibrations from internal components of the apparatus. The absorber means is disposed tangentially to at least an outer face of the cabinet.

Disclosed herein is a mounting plate for an air conditioning unit. The mounting plate comprises a first side for attachment to a wall, a second side on which the air conditioning unit is mountable, and a housing on the first side that is positionable within a cavity in the wall, the housing being adapted to house piping for attachment to the air conditioning unit.

An integrated air conditioner comprises: a housing partitioned into a first housing on the upper side thereof and a second housing on the lower side thereof, wherein the first housing has a first intake port through which external air is introduced thereinto and a first exhaust port through which internal air is exhausted therefrom, and the second housing has a second intake port through which external air is introduced thereinto and a second exhaust port through which internal air is exhausted therefrom; a compressor provided in the interior of the housing to compress a refrigerant; a condenser that is provided on a second fluid channel, which connects the second intake port and the second exhaust port, and condenses the compressed refrigerant, supplied from the compressor, into a liquid phase; an expansion unit that expands the refrigerant, condensed in the condenser, into a low-pressure refrigerant; and an evaporator that is provided on a first fluid channel, which connects the first intake port and the first exhaust port, to correspond to the upper end of the condenser and returns the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant, supplied from the expansion unit, to the compressor. Therefore, the integrated air conditioner can be made compact and portable, thereby offering convenience.

An apparatus for supporting an object at a window of a building comprises a first member, a second member, and a third member. The first member extends along at least a partial width of the window and abuts an interior surface of the building. The first member is configured to support the object by exerting an outward force on the interior surface of the building in response to a downward force exerted by the object. The first member also comprises at least two sections extending from the interior of the building to the exterior of the building. These sections may extend from the interior of the building to the exterior of the building about respective distal ends of the first member. The sum of the forces applied on the surfaces of the building are sufficient to secure the object to the building.

Provided an area-specific environment management system, which manages an environment in an individual one of a plurality of areas, the system including: a biological information sensor that acquires biological information about at least one of an individual and a group who belongs to an individual one of the areas; an environmental information sensor that acquires environmental information about an individual one of the areas; an arousal level estimation section that estimates an arousal level with respect to the biological information by using an arousal level estimation model; and an environment provision section that provides an environment to an individual one of the areas based on the arousal level and the environmental information, wherein the arousal level includes, as a state to which the arousal level belongs, a state from sleepy until awakened; a wakeful state; and an excessively wakeful state, and wherein the environment provision section includes an individual control mode corresponding to a state to which the arousal level belongs and manages an environment to be provided to an individual one of the areas based on the control mode.
