An installation device configured to hold a window mounted split air-conditioner. The installation device comprises a support structure configured to be mounted on the window sill, and a mechanism for guiding the outdoor unit from a position inside the window opening to a position outside the window opening, and holding the outdoor unit in that position for use.

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.

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.

The embodiments of the invention relate to a transparent panel or window insert of corresponding shape and size to a casement or awning window. The transparent panel or window insert is attached to the frame of a casement or awning window or an insect screen by way of a series of releasable fasteners around the outer perimeter of the transparent panel or window insert. A void, corresponding to the shape and size of a A/C hose is cut into the transparent panel or window insert. In some embodiments of the invention the void may be bayoneted to cooperate with bayonette-style hose connections.

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.

A method of installing an air conditioning unit in an opening. The method includes securing a bracket to a sill of the opening between a first and second environment where the bracket has a pivot arm disposed and extending within the first environment. The method also includes positioning a first unit of the air conditioning unit on top of the bracket; moving the first unit on top of the bracket onto the pivot arm; and rotating the pivot arm and first unit downward so that the first unit is disposed in the first environment and extending downward below the sill of the opening.

The apparatus and method disclosed herein is a new system that can be used as windows air conditioner's accessary and its possible embodiments.

By first attaching base modules to the window air conditioner's housing and/or window frames, it can create an foundation with opening for attaching other functional modules. The functional modules attached on later are interchangeable and allow a variety of applications and combination of applications.

The invention also makes installing and remove window AC unit more safer and easier.

The invention had built a new ecosystem around the window air conditioner unit. It turns the current wasted spaces around windows AC housing into a unique area where users can design and customize for different functional uses. Because the functional modules are interchangeable, user can switch easily between different modules and designs with different possible combination from time to time to achieve different goals and meet different needs.

The present invention relates to an air-conditioning device comprising: a case having an interior divided into a first area and a second area, having an indoor inlet and an indoor outlet formed therein such that the first area and an indoor space communicate with each other, and having an outdoor inlet and an outdoor outlet formed therein such that the second area and an outdoor space communicate with each other; a barrier arranged between the first area and the second area inside the case; an indoor blowing fan arranged in the first area so as to form a flow of air from the indoor inlet to the indoor outlet; an outdoor blowing fan arranged in the second area so as to form a flow of air from the outdoor inlet to the outdoor outlet; a first thermoelectric element comprising a first indoor heat exchanger arranged in the first area so as to exchange heat with air passing through the first area, and a first outdoor heat exchanger arranged in the second area so as to exchange heat with air passing through the second area; a case lower-surface formed on the lower surface of the case so as to have an open upper side such that condensed water generated from the first thermoelectric element is collected; and a second thermoelectric element arranged between the first thermoelectric element and the case lower-surface so as to heat the condensed water. The first area and the second area are connected between the case lower-surface and the second thermoelectric element such that the condensed water is distributed across the first area and the second area. The present invention is advantageous in that indoor cooling/heating can be performed without no separate compressor, outdoor unit, and the like, and condensed water can be effectively evaporated.

A fluidic valve system comprises a housing, a shell mounted to the housing, a vent for allowing fluid to enter the housing in a high pressure zone, at least one Dielectric Elastomer Actuator (DEA) flap forming a seal with the shell, wherein applying a voltage to the DEA flap causes the DEA flap to open the seal with the shell so that fluid can exit through a low pressure zone created between the shell and the DEA flap, and a power supply for supplying the voltage to the DEA flap.

A temperature control unit may include one or more thermoelectric cooling elements coupled to a conditioned space heat exchanger and an unconditioned space heat exchanger. The unit may further include one or more conditioned air fans configured to move air from a conditioned space over the conditioned space heat exchanger. The unit may also include one or more unconditioned air fans configured to move air from an unconditioned space over the unconditioned space heat exchanger. The unit may further include a power supply configured to change a polarity and level of power to the one or more thermoelectric cooling elements.
