Description

EN $ INTEGRATED AIR CONDITIONER Technical Field This invention relates to a class of air conditioning system. Specifically, it is a kind of integral air conditioner that fits into the wall. Technical Background of the Invention The divided type and window type air conditioners are most frequently used products to adjust the interior temperature. However, both have obvious flaws in either their structures or their uses. The disadvantages of the divided type of air conditioner are: (1) The installation of an external heat exchanger makes the maintenance work difficult and dangerous, and makes the outside of the buildings messy, therefore, destroys the unity and harmony of the exterior walls; (2) The external heat exchanger is supported by a steel bracket with screws, which corrode easily. 'After exposing a long time to the air, it will become a problem hidden in the airy weather. (3) The indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger of the divided type of air conditioner are connected through a copper tube while installed in the room. Connection work is a complicated task, requiring installation workers with a high level of technique. In addition, due to the limited installation at the point, the copper tubes are usually connected by screws, which easily leads to refrigerant leakage. As a result, refrigerant must be added frequently, therefore, the service life of the machine decreases; (4) The copper tube, which connects the indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger, together with the indoor heat exchanger that protrudes from the wall of the room, damages the artistic decoration of the room »(5) Since the exchanger internal thermal does not have the facility of ventilation, the indoor air is not cool enough for people to stay. If people stay inside this kind of air conditioner for a long time, they are prone to catch diseases related to the air conditioner. Even when the window type of air conditioner integrates the indoor heat exchanger with the outside one has to overcome the disadvantages of installing copper pipe at the point, it still has some flaws: (1) It is too loud to keep the room quiet; (2) Since the outside of the window type air conditioner protrudes into the outer wall, it requires a tripod to support this part. As a result, this will infect the elegance of the building; (3) The inner part of the window type of air conditioner also damages the overall decorations of the room; (4) Unlike the split type of air conditioner, the window type of the air conditioner can keep the room with fresh air, however, the air has not been dehumidified. Considering the above disadvantages of both split type and window air conditioner in the current industry, it is necessary to provide a new brand of air conditioner to overcome the defects in them. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The purpose of this invention is to overcome the defects in design, installation and aspects of use of the current window type and split type of air conditioners.

Brief Description of the Appended Drawings Figure 1 is the illustration of the structure of the present invention embedded in the wall, Figure 2 is the illustration of the structure of the present invention integrated with the window that is embedded in the wall; Figure 3 is an external perspective view of Figure 2; Figure 4 is a functional diagram of the present invention. Detailed Forms for Carrying Out the Invention As illustrated in Figure 1 to Figure 4, the integrated air conditioner includes at least one compressor 1, an indoor heat exchanger 2, an expansion apparatus 3, an external heat exchanger 4, and circular tubes 5 that connect all the parts. Its operating principles and procedures are the same as current air conditioners, so detailed illustration is omitted. The features of the present invention are that the integrated air conditioner is embedded in the wall 6; the outlet 21 of the internal thermal exchanger 2 opens into the room, exchanging heat with the internal air; while the outlet 41 of the external heat exchanger 5 opens out of the room exchanging heat with the outside air. In this way, the integrated air conditioner is integrated with the building; The air conditioner and the window of the room can be made in the factory as an integer, and then integrated into the wall of the building, so as to avoid connecting by copper pipe at the point. As a result, the difficulty of installation at the point can be reduced; In addition, because it is manufactured integrally in the factory, the leakage of refrigerant in the circular tubes 5 can be avoided and then expand the service life of the air conditioner. What's more, since there is no part of the invention outside the building, the air conditioner will not be damaged by strong weather. In addition, this design is able to solve the hidden problem. Since the integrated air conditioner is embedded in the wall, it is not necessary to leave any extra space for both indoor and outdoor installation so that the overall decorations of the room and the building is not damaged. In accordance with the illustration in figure 1, since the integrated air conditioner can be made integrally in the factory and embedded in the wall 6, this way it can overcome the defects of the current split type and window type air conditioners . As illustrated in Figure 2, the air conditioner can be integrated with the window 7, forming an integral window with the air conditioner. When the advantage 7 is set, the air conditioner can be embedded in the wall 6 at the same time. It has merits of easy installation, saving space and cold outside view. Additionally, as illustrated in Figure 2, the inner heat exchanger 2 of the present heat exchanger is fixed towards the upper part 71 of the window 7, while the outer heat exchanger 4 is fixed to the lower part 72 of the window 7. While manufacturing the air conditioner together with the window 7, the housing 22 of the indoor heat exchanger 2 can be integrated with the upper part 71 of the window frame, then the fin helical tubes 23 of the indoor heat exchanger 2 and fan 24 of the blower are fixed in the box 22, making the interior heat exchanger 2 and the window 7 integral. As to what the current air conditions have, there is an exit 21 in panel 25, which opens into the room, in case 22 of the indoor thermal exchanger 2. Inside the outlet 21 there is an air return filter screen and paddles 26 for adjusting in the lower part to adjust the wind direction from the air conditioner. What is more, there is a control panel 27 for controlling the mode of operation, which is the same as the current air conditioners, so that the detailed description is omitted here. The same principle, while the window 7 is made, the box 42 of the external thermal exchanger 4 is integrated with the lower part 72 of the window 7, then the fin-like helical tubes 43 of the external thermal exchanger 4 and the machine 44 of Wind flow is fixed in the case 42, making the thermal exchanger 4 outside and the window 7 integral. As illustrated in Figure 2, the compressor 1, as part of the air conditioning system, the expansion apparatus 3, and the circular tubes 5 are all integrated with the window 7, forming an integral window with the air conditioner. As illustrated in Figure 2, the compressor 1 and the external heat exchanger 4 are actually integrated with the lower window part 72, the circular tube 5 connecting the compressor 1 and the indoor thermal exchanger 2 can be integral in the frame 73 of side window. All 5 circular tubes are wrapped with insulation covers 51, reducing the loss of thermal exchange. As illustrated in Figure 3, there is a fresh air inlet 28 on the outside of the indoor thermal exchanger 2 of the present air conditioner. When the air conditioner is working, the fresh air inlet 28 can be opened as needed. Through the inlet 28 fresh air from the outside enters the case 212 of the indoor thermal exchanger 2, exchanging heat with the helical tube 23 similar to the fin in the indoor thermal exchanger 2. After that, the air enters the room. Not only is the quality of the interior air improved, but also the air from the outside has been dehumidified and exchanged through the interior heat exchanger 2. In this way, defects in the divided type of air conditioner, which is used in the non-circulated indoor environment, can be avoided. Additionally, there is a sound isolation device in the inner part of the outer heat exchanger 4 and the compressor 1 of the invention (this is not shown in the figure), which can reduce the noise when the air conditioner is working.
