  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described through embodiments of the invention, but the following embodiments do not limit the invention according to the claims. In addition, not all the combinations of features described in the embodiments are essential for the solving means of the invention.

  FIG. 1 schematically shows an example of an air conditioning system 100 according to the present embodiment. The air conditioning system 100 includes an air conditioning outdoor unit 200, a solar panel 302, and a gantry 400.

  The air conditioning outdoor unit 200 exchanges heat with an air conditioning indoor unit (not shown). The air conditioner outdoor unit 200 and the air conditioner indoor unit exchange heat to adjust the temperature of the room in which the air conditioner indoor unit is arranged. In the present embodiment, a case where indoor cooling is realized by the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200 and the air-conditioning indoor unit will be mainly described, but heating may be realized.

  The air conditioning outdoor unit 200 has an intake port 214 and an exhaust port 216. The air inlet 214 is disposed on the bottom surface 204 of the housing 202. Here, the case where the intake port 214 is disposed only on the bottom surface 204 is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the intake port 214 is disposed on at least one of the four side surfaces 208 of the housing 202. Also good. Further, the air inlet 214 may be disposed on at least one of the four side surfaces 208 of the housing 202 and the bottom surface 204 of the housing 202.

  The exhaust port 216 is disposed on the upper surface 206 of the housing 202. The air conditioner outdoor unit 200 includes an exhaust fan 217. When the exhaust fan 217 is driven, air is sucked from the intake port 214 and air is discharged from the exhaust port 216.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the high-temperature air discharged from the exhaust port 216 becomes an exhaust flow 30. When the exhaust flow 30 merges with the intake air flow 20 indicating the flow of air taken in by the intake port 214, the high-temperature air discharged from the exhaust port 216 is sucked from the intake port 214, and the air conditioning efficiency decreases. End up. Therefore, the air conditioning system 100 according to the present embodiment is a solar cell disposed between the exhaust port 216 and the intake port 214 in order to prevent high-temperature air discharged from the exhaust port 216 from being sucked from the intake port 214. An optical panel 302 is provided.

  Moreover, when sunlight reaches the periphery of the intake port 214, the ambient temperature of the intake port 214 becomes high, and the air conditioning efficiency decreases. Therefore, the air conditioning system 100 according to the present embodiment prevents high temperature air discharged from the exhaust port 216 from being sucked from the intake port 214 and prevents sunlight from reaching the periphery of the intake port 214. The solar panel 302 may be provided between the exhaust port 216 and the intake port 214 and at a position that shields sunlight from the periphery of the intake port 214.

  The solar panel 302 is supported by a gantry 400 as shown in FIG. The solar panel 302 supported by the gantry 400 is disposed between the exhaust port 216 and the intake port 214. The space between the exhaust port 216 and the intake port 214 may be on a route until the air discharged from the exhaust port 216 is taken into the intake port 214 when the solar panel 302 is not disposed. The solar panel 302 can prevent the air discharged from the exhaust port 216 from being sucked from the intake port 214.

  The gantry 400 includes a support plate 402 and legs 404. The support plate 402 supports the solar panel 302. The leg portion 404 supports the support plate 402. The leg portion 404 may support the support plate 402 with four legs. Further, the leg portion 404 may be cantilevered on one side of the support plate 402 by two of the four legs. Thereby, for example, when four legs vibrate due to the occurrence of an earthquake or the like, the solar panel 302 is damaged by the pressure generated by applying forces in different directions to the two pairs of opposing legs. Can be prevented. Note that the leg portion 404 may support the support plate 402 with one leg. For example, the leg portion 404 supports the vicinity of the center of the support plate 402 with one leg.

  The support plate 402 may support the solar panel 302 in parallel with the upper surface 206 of the air conditioning outdoor unit 200. The support plate 402 may be arranged so that the exhaust flow 30 from the exhaust port 216 does not pass between the support plate 402 and the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 or reduces the amount of passage. For example, the support plate 402 is disposed between the two air-conditioning outdoor units 200, has substantially the same length as the distance between the two air-conditioning outdoor units 200, and is disposed at the same height as the upper surface 206 of the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200. Is done. Thereby, it can prevent that the exhaust flow 30 passes between the support plate 402 and the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200, and is suck | inhaled from the inlet port 214. FIG.

  The length substantially the same as the distance between the two air-conditioning outdoor units 200 is a length shorter than the distance between the two air-conditioning outdoor units 200 to such an extent that the support plate 402 can be disposed between the two air-conditioning outdoor units 200. It's okay. Further, the substantially same height as the upper surface 206 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 may be a height at which the bottom surface of the support plate 402 is not located above the upper surface 206. By arranging the support plate 402 at substantially the same height as the upper surface 206 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200, it is possible to prevent the exhaust flow 30 from being sucked from the intake port 214, and from the sun 10 to the solar panel 302. It is possible to prevent solar radiation from being blocked by the air conditioner outdoor unit 200.

  The electric power generated by the solar panel 302 may be supplied to the air conditioning outdoor unit 200. For example, the electric power generated by the solar panel 302 is supplied to a drive unit that drives the exhaust fan 217. Thereby, air-conditioning efficiency can be improved. Moreover, the electric power generated by the solar panel 302 may be supplied to a building or the like in which the air conditioning system 100 is installed.

  Although FIG. 1 illustrates the case where the solar panel 302 is supported by the gantry 400, the present invention is not limited to this. The solar panel 302 may be supported by the air conditioning outdoor unit 200. For example, the solar panel 302 is supported by a support member installed on the upper surface 206 or the side surface 208 of the air conditioning outdoor unit 200. The solar panel 302 may be directly supported by the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200, or may be supported via a support plate or the like.

  Even when the solar panel 302 is disposed between the two air-conditioning outdoor units 200, the solar panel 302 is not supported by both of the two air-conditioning outdoor units 200, but is cantilevered by one air-conditioning outdoor unit 200. It's okay. Thereby, for example, when the two air conditioner outdoor units 200 vibrate due to the occurrence of an earthquake or the like, the solar panel 302 can be prevented from being damaged by the pressure applied from both of the two air conditioner outdoor units 200.

  FIG. 2 schematically shows another example of the air conditioning system 100. Here, a different point from the air conditioning system 100 shown in FIG. 1 is mainly demonstrated. The air conditioning system 100 illustrated in FIG. 2 includes a temperature sensor 222 and a mist supply unit 230 in addition to the air conditioning outdoor unit 200, the solar panel 302, and the gantry 400. 2 has an air supply fan 219 in addition to the air inlet 214, the air outlet 216, and the air exhaust fan 217. The air conditioner outdoor unit 200 shown in FIG.

  The air supply fan 219 supplies air around the air inlet 214. The air supply fan 219 may be an example of an intake port cooling unit.

  The mist supply unit 230 supplies mist around the intake port 214. The mist supply unit 230 is, for example, dry mist (registered trademark). The mist supply unit 230 includes a pipe 232 and a nozzle 234. The mist supply unit 230 supplies mist from the nozzle 234 using the water supplied to the pipe 232. The mist supply unit 230 may be an example of an intake port cooling unit.

  In addition, in FIG. 2, although the case where the piping 232 and the nozzle 234 are arrange | positioned under the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200 and the support plate 402 is illustrated, it is not restricted to this. As a result, other forms may be used as long as the periphery of the intake port 214 is cooled. For example, the mist supply unit 230 may supply mist from any position below the air conditioner outdoor unit 200. Further, the mist supply unit 230 may supply mist from an arbitrary position to the lower side of the support plate 402. In addition, the mist supply unit 230 may supply mist from above the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200 toward the entire air-conditioning outdoor unit 200.

  The temperature sensor 222 measures the temperature around the air conditioning outdoor unit 200. For example, the temperature sensor 222 measures the temperature around the intake port 214. The air conditioning system 100 may drive at least one of the air supply fan 219 and the mist supply unit 230 based on the output of the temperature sensor 222.

  For example, the air conditioning system 100 drives at least one of the air supply fan 219 and the mist supply unit 230 when the output value of the temperature sensor 222 exceeds a predetermined threshold value. Accordingly, at least one of the air supply fan 219 and the mist supply unit 230 can be driven only when the temperature around the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200 rises above the threshold value. The air conditioning system 100 stops driving when the output value of the temperature sensor 222 becomes smaller than a predetermined threshold as a result of driving at least one of the air supply fan 219 and the mist supply unit 230. Alternatively, the air supply fan 219 and the mist supply unit 230 may be controlled.

  When driving the air supply fan 219, the air conditioning system 100 may use electric power generated by the solar panel 302. Moreover, when driving the mist supply part 230, the air conditioning system 100 may use the electric power generated by the solar panel 302.

  In addition, although the air supply fan 219 and the mist supply part 230 were mentioned and demonstrated here as an example of an inlet-port cooling part, it is not restricted to this. The air inlet cooling unit may be a sprinkler that sprays water around the air inlet 214.

  FIG. 3 schematically shows an arrangement example of the plurality of air conditioner outdoor units 200 and the plurality of mounts 400 each supporting the solar panel 302. Although FIG. 3 shows an example in which six air conditioning outdoor units 200 and six mounts 400 are arranged, the number arranged may be arbitrary. As shown in FIG. 3, each of the plurality of mounts 400 may be disposed between the plurality of air conditioner outdoor units 200 arranged in parallel. As a result, the solar panel 302 supported by the plurality of mounts 400 is configured such that the air discharged from the exhaust ports 216 of the plurality of air conditioner outdoor units 200 is sucked from the air intake ports 214 of the plurality of air conditioner outdoor units 200. Can be prevented. Further, the solar panel 302 can prevent sunlight from reaching the vicinity of the air inlet 214 of each of the plurality of air conditioner outdoor units 200.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the gantry 400 arranged at the end of the plurality of gantry 400 arranged in parallel may have a side member 408. Since the gantry 400 disposed at the ends of the gantry 400 has the side surface member 408, air discharged from the exhaust port 216 of the air conditioning outdoor unit 200 flows in from the side surface of the gantry 400 and the air conditioning outdoor unit. Inhalation by the 200 intake ports 214 can be prevented.

  The arrangement shown in FIG. 3 is an example, and the plurality of air conditioner outdoor units 200 and the plurality of mounts 400 can prevent air discharged from the exhaust port 216 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 from being sucked from the air intake port 214. Any other arrangement may be used as long as it is an arrangement.

  The plurality of air conditioner outdoor units 200 and the plurality of mounts 400 illustrated in FIG. 3 are disposed on the roof of a building such as a data center or an office building, for example. In many cases, various facilities such as air conditioning equipment and power generation equipment are installed on the rooftops of data centers and office buildings. Therefore, there is little space where the solar panel 302 can be installed. On the other hand, according to the air conditioning system 100 according to the present embodiment, the solar panel 302 has a role of preventing the air exhausted from the exhaust port 216 from being sucked from the intake port 214, and sunlight is the intake port. It plays the role of preventing the vicinity of 214 and the role of generating electricity. Thereby, according to the air conditioning system 100 which concerns on this embodiment, the installation space of the solar panel 302 can be ensured efficiently.

  FIG. 4 schematically illustrates an example of a functional configuration of an air-conditioning outdoor unit 200, a solar power generation device 300 having a solar panel 302, and an electric facility 600 included in a building in which the air-conditioning outdoor unit 200 and the solar power generation device 300 are installed. Indicate. The air conditioner outdoor unit 200 includes a heat exchange unit 210, a power supply unit 212, a power supply connection unit 213, an exhaust fan 217, a temperature sensor 222, an exhaust fan drive unit 227, an air supply fan drive unit 229, a mist supply unit 230, and a mist drive. Part 236.

  The heat exchange unit 210 circulates the refrigerant and releases heat from the refrigerant. The power supply unit 212 supplies power to the heat exchange unit 210. The power supply unit 212 may receive power from the power supply unit 604 included in the electrical facility 600 connected to the power supply connection unit 213 and supply the power to the heat exchange unit 210.

  The exhaust fan 217 sucks air from the intake port 214 and discharges air from the exhaust port 216. The air warmed by the heat exchange unit 210 is exhausted from the exhaust port 216. The exhaust fan driving unit 227 drives the exhaust fan 217 using the power supplied from the power supply unit 212.

  The air supply fan 219 supplies air to the intake port 214. The air supply fan drive unit 229 drives the air supply fan 219 using the power supplied from the power supply unit 212. The supply fan driving unit 229 may be an example of a cooling driving unit.

  The mist supply unit 230 supplies mist around the intake port 214. The mist drive unit 236 drives the mist supply unit 230 using the power supplied from the power supply unit 212. The mist driving unit 236 may be an example of a cooling driving unit.

  The temperature sensor 222 continuously measures the temperature. The temperature sensor 222 causes the air supply fan drive unit 229 to drive the air supply fan 219 when the measured temperature exceeds a predetermined threshold value. Further, the temperature sensor 222 causes the mist driving unit 236 to drive the mist supply unit 230 when the measured temperature exceeds a predetermined threshold value.

  The solar power generation device 300 includes a solar panel 302, a power generation unit 304, a power storage unit 306, and a power supply unit 308. The power generation unit 304 generates power using the solar panel 302.

  The power storage unit 306 stores the power generated by the power generation unit 304. The power supply unit 308 may supply power to at least one of the power supply unit 212 included in the air conditioner outdoor unit 200 and the power receiving unit 602 included in the electric facility 600. The power supply unit 308 may supply the power stored in the power storage unit 306 to at least one of the power supply unit 212 and the power reception unit 602. Further, the power supply unit 308 may directly receive the power generated by the power generation unit 304 from the power supply unit 308 and supply the power to at least one of the power supply unit 212 and the power reception unit 602.

  The power supply unit 212 may supply the power received from the power supply unit 308 to the heat exchange unit 210, the exhaust fan drive unit 227, the supply fan drive unit 229, and the mist drive unit 236. Thereby, the efficiency of air-conditioning can be improved by the electric power generated by the solar panel. Note that the power supply unit 308 may supply power to the heat exchange unit 210, the exhaust fan drive unit 227, the air supply fan drive unit 229, and the mist drive unit 236 without using the power supply unit 212. The power supply unit 308 may be an example of a cooling unit power supply unit.

  Here, although an example has been described in which the power supply unit 308 supplies the power generated by the power generation unit 304 to at least one of the power supply unit 212 and the power reception unit 602, the present invention is not limited thereto. The power generated by the power generation unit 304 may be sold to an electric power company. For example, the electric power generated by the power generation unit 304 is sold using a smart meter connected to the solar power generation device 300.

  FIG. 5 schematically shows another example of the air conditioning system 100. Here, differences from the air conditioning system 100 shown in FIG. 1 will be mainly described. A gantry 400 shown in FIG. 5 includes a movable portion 406, an exhaust shielding member storage portion 410, and an exhaust shielding member 420.

  The movable part 406 supports the solar panel 302 through the support plate 402 so as to be rotatable. The support plate 402 and the movable unit 406 may be an example of a panel support unit that rotatably supports the solar panel 302. The movable unit 406 may rotate the solar panel 302 upward from an angle at which the solar panel 302 is parallel to the upper surface 206 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200. For example, the efficiency of power generation by the solar panel 302 can be improved by rotating the solar panel 302 toward the sun 10 by the movable portion 406.

  The exhaust shielding member accommodating portion 410 accommodates the exhaust shielding member 420. The exhaust shielding member 420 prevents the exhaust from the exhaust port 216 from being sucked into the intake port 214 when the solar panel 302 is rotated to an angle other than the angle parallel to the upper surface 206 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200. To prevent.

  The exhaust shielding member accommodating portion 410 accommodates the exhaust shielding member 420 in the same manner as a roll curtain, for example. The exhaust shielding member 420 may be a cloth-like member. The material of the exhaust shielding member 420 is desirably a material having durability, antifouling properties, and flexibility. The exhaust shielding member 420 is made of, for example, a polyethylene sheet.

  For example, one end of the exhaust shielding member 420 is fixed to the exhaust shielding member storage 410 and the other end is fixed to the support plate 402. When the support plate 402 is rotated by the movable portion 406, the exhaust shielding member 420 is pulled out from the exhaust shielding member storage portion 410. By pulling out the exhaust shielding member 420, the exhaust shielding member 420 prevents the air exhausted from the exhaust port 216 from being taken into the intake port 214.

  For example, the exhaust shielding member 420 can be fixed to a hooking member provided on the support plate 402. In this case, the exhaust shielding member storage 410 supports one end of the exhaust shielding member 420, and the hook member provided on the support plate 402 supports the other end of the exhaust shielding member 420.

  In addition, the exhaust shielding member 420 may have a hook attached to the tip thereof, and the exhaust shielding member 420 may be fixed to the support plate 402 by a fastener attached to the support plate 402 and the hook. Further, a fastener may be attached to the tip of the exhaust shielding member 420 and a hook may be attached to the support plate 402.

  The support plate 402 may support the exhaust shielding member 420 so as to release the support of the exhaust shielding member 420 when a certain level of force is applied to at least one of the exhaust shielding member 420 and the support plate 402. The force above a certain level is a force that damages at least one of the support plate 402 and the exhaust shielding member 420 when applied to at least one of the support plate 402 and the exhaust shielding member 420 by strong wind or the like. The support plate 402 does not release the support of the exhaust shielding member 420 when the exhaust shielding member 420 is pulled out from the exhaust shielding member storage portion 410 by rotating the support plate 402, and when a certain level of force is applied. The exhaust shielding member 420 may be supported so as to release the support of the exhaust shielding member 420.

  The support plate 402 supports the exhaust shielding member 420 by magnetic force, for example. Specifically, the exhaust shielding member 420 may be fixed to the support plate 402 by a magnetic force by attaching a magnet to at least one of the tip of the exhaust shielding member 420 and the support plate 402 and attaching a magnetic body to the other. When the exhaust shielding member 420 is fixed to the support plate 402 by a magnetic force, for example, when a force is applied to the support plate 402 by a strong wind or the like, the fixing by the magnetic force is released, so that the solar panel 302, the gantry 400, etc. Can be prevented from being damaged.

  Here, as an example, the case where the support plate 402 supports the exhaust shielding member 420 by magnetic force has been described as an example, but the present invention is not limited thereto. If the support of the exhaust shielding member 420 is released when a certain level of force is applied to at least one of the exhaust shielding member 420 and the support plate 402, the support plate 402 supports the exhaust shielding member 420 by another mechanism. May be. For example, the support plate 402 supports the exhaust shielding member 420 with a suction cup or the like.

  In FIG. 5, the case where the exhaust shielding member accommodating portion 410 is disposed on the leg portion 404 is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the exhaust shielding member accommodating portion 410 may be disposed on the support plate 402. In this case, the exhaust shielding member 420 may be pulled out from the exhaust shielding member storage portion 410 disposed on the support plate 402 and fixed to the leg portion 404. Further, in this case, the leg portion 404 supports the exhaust shielding member 420 so as to release the support of the exhaust shielding member 420 when a certain force is applied to at least one of the exhaust shielding member 420 and the support plate 402. You can do it.

  In addition, here, an example in which the exhaust shielding member accommodating portion 410 accommodates the exhaust shielding member 420 in the same manner as the roll curtain has been described, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The exhaust shielding member accommodating portion 410 may accommodate the exhaust shielding member 420 by having a storage space for accommodating the bellows-shaped exhaust shielding member 420. The bellows-shaped exhaust shielding member 420 is in a contracted state when the solar panel 302 is parallel to the upper surface 206 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200, and the solar panel 302 is parallel to the upper surface 206 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 200. When it is rotated to an angle other than the angle, it may have a bellows shape that is in an extended state.
