Disclosed is a window air conditioner having a constant temperature dehumidification mode. A first indoor heat exchanger and a second indoor heat exchanger of the air conditioner are stacked in an air inlet direction of an indoor air duct of the air conditioner. In the constant temperature dehumidification mode, one of the indoor heat exchangers is configured to be in a heating mode, and the other one is configured to be in a cooling mode. In this way, both fresh air and indoor air may be dehumidified and heated, a user may feel the fresh air and the temperature of the dehumidified air is comfortable.

This invention provides an isothermal turbo-compressor-expander-condenser-evaporator in a single integral arrangement that is suitable for a variety of compact arrangements, such as a window air-conditioner and/or automotive-based unit. This arrangement avoids the use of rotary fluid joints and maintains the entire fluid cycle, including compression, condensation, expansion and evaporation within a single rotating shaft-based structure, with the compressor/condenser section and the expansion/evaporator section separated from each other in separate spaces and/or plena by a rotating, insulated barrier disc and associated seal.

An adjustable mounting assembly for an outdoor unit of an air conditioning unit is disclosed. In some embodiments, the outdoor unit on the adjustable mounting assembly may be capable of moving between among multiple height positions, for example, from a higher loading position to a lower installed position. For example, in some embodiments, the adjustable mounting assembly may include a counterbalancing mechanism to facilitate the position movement of the outdoor unit. In some other embodiments, the position movement of the outdoor unit may be achieved by folding and/or unfolding of a scissor lifting mechanism.

A hybrid window air conditioning unit is disclosed. The hybrid window air conditioning unit may include an indoor unit and an outdoor unit operatively connected by a connection unit. The connection unit may have an interior channel containing refrigerant piping and electrical wiring connecting between the indoor unit and the outdoor unit. In some embodiments, the hybrid air conditioning may include a height-adjustable outdoor unit mounting assembly to allow the outdoor unit to be disposed substantially flush with or below a window.

A single-package air conditioner unit, as provided herein, may include a cabinet, an outdoor heat exchanger, an indoor heat exchanger, a compressor, and a controller. The cabinet may define an outdoor portion and an indoor portion. The outdoor heat exchanger may be disposed in the outdoor portion. The indoor heat exchanger may be disposed in the indoor portion. The compressor may be in fluid communication with the outdoor heat exchanger and the indoor heat exchanger to circulate a refrigerant therebetween. The controller may be in operative communication with the compressor. The controller may be configured to initiate a conditioning operation. The conditioning operation may include receiving a demand response signal corresponding to electric power access, determining occupancy of an indoor environment, and initiating a responsive conditioning cycle in response to receiving the demand response signal, the responsive conditioning cycle being based on the determined occupancy.

An air conditioner includes a chassis and an electric control box vertically installed on the chassis. The chassis includes a socket. The electric control box includes a pre-positioning member and a fixation structure provided at a bottom of the electric control box. The pre-positioning member corresponds to the socket. The pre-positioning member is configured to be inserted in the socket of the chassis to position the electric control box. The fixation structure is configured to connect and fix the electric control box to the chassis.

A window air conditioner includes a chassis, a housing including an indoor-side housing and an outdoor-side housing respectively arranged at two sides of the chassis, an electric control box installed at the chassis and located in the outdoor-side housing, a junction box arranged in the indoor-side housing, and a wiring plate arranged at the chassis and including a power supply wire slot, a strong electric wire slot, and a weak electric wire slot isolated from each other. A power wire electrically connected to the electric control box is arranged in the power supply wire slot. A strong electric wire electrically connected to at least one of the electric control box or the junction box is arranged in the strong electric wire slot. A weak electric wire electrically connected to the electric control box is arranged in the weak electric wire slot.
