Description

  The present invention relates to an air conditioner for a temporary facility that can be mainly cooled by a temporary facility such as a tent.

  Conventionally, as an air conditioner for cooling and heating an almost enclosed indoor space of this type of temporary equipment, an air conditioner is installed outside, and cold air or hot air is blown from an air-conditioning air inlet of the temporary equipment to cool or heat the room. The method of performing was common. And since outdoor air is used as it is, it is cooled and heated to cool air or warm air and blown into the temporary equipment, the air inside the temporary equipment is driven out by the blown air, which is very efficient. Unfortunately, because the conditioned air is sent to the temporary facility by a powerful blower, the noise is loud, and eventually the comfortable facility cannot provide a comfortable conditioned space.

  In order to eliminate such a defect, the applicant proposed the structure of Patent Document 1. This air conditioner is realized by a heat pump air conditioner that can be used for both cooling and heating. The basic structure of this air conditioner is to use a floor-mounted indoor unit, and install the floor-mounted indoor unit and outdoor unit on one base. By positioning it inside the temporary facility, it takes in indoor air in the same way as a normal room and cools and heats it to produce cold air and hot air. Hot air is blown out along the floor, and the cold air is upward. A device that can be cooled and heated by a single unit was proposed.

  However, recent indoor air conditioner units are mainly wall-mounted, and there are few general-purpose heat exchangers for manufacturing floor-standing indoor units. The price is high, and there is a risk that the spread will be hindered in terms of price. For this reason, in Patent Document 1, as another example, a general-purpose wall-mounted indoor unit was attached to a strut that expands and contracts, and during the cooling operation, a proposal was made to extend the strut and arrange the indoor unit higher. In order to achieve this, a flexible pipe must be used for the refrigerant piping. This pipe is an expensive part, and the use of wall-mounted indoor units can be solved with this structure in terms of ease of manufacture. There are issues to be addressed.

  Even if the present invention is a recent temporary facility using a simple panel, a part of the side wall is made of a tent fabric or the like in order to create an opening for people to enter and exit, and an entrance that opens and closes with a fastener is provided in this part. Since there is also a proposal of a simple method, the present invention proposes an air conditioner device for temporary facilities that improves usability by focusing on temporary facilities having such side walls including tents.

The present invention solves the above problems, and is an air conditioner A mainly composed of an indoor unit 1 and an outdoor unit 2 that is used for cooling. The outdoor unit 2 of the air conditioner A has an air suction port 3 on its rear surface, An air discharge port 4 is provided on the front surface, and a fixing member 7 that is taller than the outdoor unit 2 is raised from a base 6 to which the outdoor unit 2 is attached through an air suction port 3 and a gap 5 on the rear surface. In the upper part of the fixing member 7, the indoor unit 1 is attached to the opposite side of the outdoor unit 2,
In addition, the connecting pipes 8 of the indoor unit 1 and the outdoor unit 2 are attached along the fixing member 7 to hold the air conditioner A in a usable state and higher than the outdoor unit 2 installed on the base 6. The wall surface 9 of the temporary equipment B at the rear or lower position of the indoor unit 1 of the indoor unit 1 attached to the fixing member 7 at a position is provided with an opening 10 whose width is larger than the width of the fixing member 7. The opening 10 is provided with a closing means 11 for closing the opening 10 while the fixing member 7 is interposed between the opening edges, and the indoor unit 1 attached to the fixing member 7 is located in the space in the temporary installation B from the opening 10. The indoor unit 1 is inserted in a high place in the temporary facility B, and the outdoor unit 2 is disposed outside the temporary facility B.

  The height dimension of the indoor unit 1 of the air conditioner A is set smaller than the height dimension of the outdoor unit 2, and the fixing member 7 is raised from the rear edge of the base 6. And an L-shaped support frame 12 that connects the front portion of the base 6 to each other, and a horizontal portion 12a constituting the upper portion of the support frame 12 is connected to the fixing member 7 at a position higher than the outdoor unit 2. Since it is connected and the base 6 or the leg 13 attached to the base 6 in the air conditioner A for other temporary facilities is mounted on the horizontal portion 12a so that the air conditioner A can be stacked and stored. It will be possible to stack and store many air conditioners for temporary facilities even in a small warehouse until it must be used unexpectedly.

  In the present invention, a tall fixing member 7 is raised from the rear of the outdoor unit 2 of the base 6, and the indoor unit 1 is attached to the upper part of the fixing member 7. The indoor unit 1 and the outdoor unit 2 are connected in advance to piping. And the connecting pipe 8 for the electrical wiring have been installed, and if the outdoor unit 2 is supplied with power in this state, it can be started immediately, and even if there is an unexpected use request in the event of a disaster, the engine generator There is a feature that can be used just by connecting the power supply.

  In addition, when the apparatus is attached to the temporary facility B, the wall surface 9 of the temporary facility B is previously provided with an opening 10 at a position higher than the outdoor unit 2, and the indoor unit 1 attached to the fixing member 7 is inserted from the opening 10. Since the opening 10 is inserted into the indoor side of the temporary facility B, and the opening 10 is provided with closing means 11 that can be closed between the opening edges and between the opening edge and the fixing member 7, the sealed state of the temporary facility B can be secured, and By using the indoor unit 1 that is a horizontally long and cool air blown down used for general households installed at a high position by the fixing member 7, the indoor space of the temporary installation B can be efficiently air-conditioned.

  The fixing member 7 for installing the indoor unit 1 rises from the rear edge of the base 6 on which the outdoor unit 2 is installed, and connects to the rear fixing member 7 while rising upward from the front edge of the base 6. Since the inverted L-shaped support frame 12 is attached and the base 6 and the legs 13 of the other air conditioner A can be placed on the horizontal portion 12a of the inverted L-shaped support frame 12 and stored. Can be efficiently stacked in a small space and stored in a warehouse.

  Prior Patent Document 1 can also stack the air conditioner A, but when using a horizontally long lower blowout indoor unit 1 as in the present invention, if the height is not lowered by adding an expansion / contraction function, two-stage stacking is performed. However, according to the present invention, two-stage stacking and three-stage stacking are possible in a ready-to-use state. In addition, if the height of the fixing member 7 from the base 6 is set to the internal height of the general-purpose container in a state where the fixing member 7 is stacked in two stages, the container can be stored in large quantities.

  In addition, the air conditioner A of the present invention focuses on the air conditioning of the temporary facility B used at the time of a disaster, and the use of machines is restricted at the time of such a disaster. Even if there is an upper space in the warehouse, it is assumed that it is stored in two layers. If the air conditioner A of the present invention is set to a positional relationship in which the height of the upper indoor unit 1 is set higher than that of the lower outdoor unit 2, two units can be substantially installed in the floor installation space only for the outdoor unit 2. It becomes possible to store, and mass storage becomes possible.

  Further, the height of the indoor unit 1 installed on the fixing member 7 is set to the height of the outdoor unit 2 that is above when stacked as shown in FIG. 5, that is, the width of the indoor unit 1 is the width of the fixing member 7. When the indoor unit 1 is attached to the fixing member 7 so that the lower end portion of the indoor unit 1 is positioned higher than the horizontal portion 12a of the air conditioner A that is stacked, two are stacked. Since the next indoor unit 1 of the air conditioner A can be positioned above the outdoor unit of the air conditioner A, the two air conditioners A can be stored as long as the projection area of the base 6 is practically more efficient. Can now be stored safely.

  The air conditioner A of the present invention enables the air conditioning of the temporary facility B. Such a temporary facility B is usually disassembled into parts, or the tent device is stored in a folded state. When such a situation occurs, it provides a place where people can live and direct disaster activities. For this reason, it is a precondition that it is always stored, and when the occurrence of a disaster does not require air conditioning as in spring or autumn, the air conditioner A remains in the stored state, and the temporary equipment B It will only be used. The temporary facility B of the present invention is provided with an opening 10, and the opening 10 can be sealed by the closing means 11, so that the air conditioner A is closed when not in use. In addition, since the opening 10 is provided with the opening / closing means 11, the opening 10 is sometimes opened to allow wind to ventilate the temporary facility B. On the other hand, the air conditioner A is mainly used during a summer disaster, and the period that is really necessary is short. Therefore, the most important issue is how many air conditioners A of this kind can be stored in a narrow space. . In addition, in the event of a disaster, there is no other way than relying on humans than machines, and the air conditioner A stored in the warehouse is preferred because it is easy to handle in two stages. Since the present invention has a feature that it can be stored very efficiently particularly when stored in a two-stage stack, it provides an optimum structure as an air conditioner for a temporary facility.
