Ruggedized environmental control unit

The present disclosure is directed to implementation of an environmental control unit using rotomolded techniques to fabricate the structures of the unit instead of the standard conventional sheet metal, extruded, forged, and punched parts. Such implementations will provide a lighter weight and more durable mechanical configuration that will also simplify inspection, simplify assembly/disassembly, and reduce fabrication costs. Implementations incorporate rotationally-molded interlocking structures to contain and attach the critical items of the ECU's mechanical components including the compressor, and the indoor and outdoor coils, as well as the fan and blower motor assembly. In one implementation, the rotomolded structure is strengthened and insulated (thermally and acoustically) by filling the interior void of the rotationally molded structure with a closed-cell foam.

AIR CONDITIONER UNIT HAVING A STERILIZATION LIGHT ASSEMBLY

An air conditioner unit may include a housing, an outdoor heat exchanger assembly, an indoor heat exchanger assembly, a compressor, a sterilization light assembly, and a flow sensor. The housing may define an indoor portion and an outdoor portion. The housing may further define an exhaust outlet downstream from the indoor portion to exhaust air therefrom. The sterilization light assembly may be disposed within the indoor portion to transmit an ultraviolet light emission thereto. The flow sensor may be disposed within the indoor portion upstream from the exhaust outlet. The flow sensor may be operably coupled to the sterilization light assembly and configured to activation of sterilization light assembly in response to detecting a predetermined airflow within the indoor portion.

WINDOW INSTALLATION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SPLIT-ARCHITECTURE AIR CONDITIONING UNIT

An air conditioning unit comprising a bracket configured to be coupled to a sill of an opening between a first and second environment, the bracket comprising a pivot arm configured to be disposed and extending within the first environment. The bracket is configured to have a first unit positioned on top of the bracket; have the first unit moved on top of the bracket onto the pivot arm; and have the pivot arm and first unit rotated downward so that the first unit is disposed in the first environment and extending downward below the sill of the opening to cause one or more pivot arm guide slots of the pivot arm to rotate from a first configuration to a second configuration.

AIR CONDITIONING UNIT
20230054677 · 2023-02-23 · ·

An air conditioning unit includes a conditioning chamber, a fan with a fan air input and a fan air output, and an evaporative unit. The fan and the evaporative unit are arranged in the conditioning chamber. The fan draws in entry air to enter the air conditioning unit, then through the evaporative unit, to condition the entry air to produce conditioned air. Within the conditioning chamber, the fan is positioned and configured such that at least 30% of an area of the fan air output are positioned above an average top surface of the evaporative unit, and that air from the at least 30% of the area of the fan air output is directed towards a wall of the conditioning chamber prior to being redirected downwards and through the evaporative unit.

Air purifier with air outlet guider
11585548 · 2023-02-21 ·

An air purifier includes a main housing, an air filter, a driving motor, a centrifugal fan, and an air outlet guider. The air outlet guider includes a central hub connected to the driving motor, a plurality of outlet guiding blades outwardly extended from the central hub, and a peripheral rim connected to the central hub at a distance from the central hub to form an air guiding cavity between the central hub and the peripheral rim. The outlet guiding blades extend in the air guiding cavity. When the driving motor is activated to draw air from the air inlet, the air is forced to sequentially pass through the filter assembly and the guiding cavity. The air in the air guiding cavity is diverted and guided by the outlet guiding blades to form a more streamlined flow which is to be discharged through the air outlet.
