Description

Technical description.

Technical field.

The invention relates to a device for guiding the supply air and exhaust air of the condenser of a monoblock air conditioner attached to the inside of an outer wall.

State of the art.

An air conditioner is used, among other things, to cool the room temperature.

• Splitanlage mit außeninstaliertem Kondensator und einem oder mehreren inneninstallierten Verdampfern. Der außen-installierter Kondensator ist gewöhnlich fest an der Haus-Außenwand installiert. Die Außen-Installation leistungsstarker Kondensatoren solcher Splitanlagen ist häufig aus Gründen des Lärmschutzes, Denkmalschutzes, behördlicher Auflagen oder fehlender Einwilligung des Immobilieneigentümers / Vermieters nicht umsetzbar.

Different types of air conditioners are known:

• Split system with externally installed condenser and one or more internally installed evaporators. The externally installed condenser is usually permanently installed on the outside wall of the house. The outdoor installation of powerful capacitors of such split systems is often not feasible for reasons of noise protection, monument protection, official requirements or the lack of consent from the property owner / landlord.

Free-standing air conditioning unit monoblock in the room to be cooled, with integrated condenser and evaporator. Supply air is taken from the room air and warm exhaust air is usually discharged to the outside through a loose hose through an open window. Floor units of this type are less effective than split systems. The exhaust air routing via a window-guided exhaust air hose also reduces the cooling effect due to the inflowing warm outside air. The alternative supply and exhaust air routing through wall drilling requires the consent of the property owner.

Air conditioning unit monoblock attached to the inside of an exterior wall, with integrated condenser and evaporator, as published in EP 1116001B1 , Modern air conditioning unit monoblocks installed inside are flat, similarly powerful as conventional split units and also quieter in operation than conventional split units. Due to the flat, weight-saving and aesthetic design, such air conditioner monoblocks are increasingly being installed. Supply air from the condenser is supplied from the outside of the room and the exhaust air from the condenser is discharged to the outside. According to the current state of the art, the supply air and exhaust air routing of the condenser are restricted to outside wall bores. However, this technical implementation is usually not feasible due to the lack of consent from the property owners, especially in rental apartments in metropolitan areas. There are no alternative technical solutions for the supply and exhaust air routing of the condenser to avoid structural changes that require approval (wall drilling).

Object of the invention.

The invention has for its object to provide an improved device for the supply and exhaust air routing of the condenser of a wall-mounted air conditioner monoblock without a structural change.

The invention is based on the further object of providing an improved device for supplying and extracting air from the condenser of a wall-mounted air conditioning unit monoblock, which runs without wall bores.

NEW: The invention is also based on the object of providing an improved device for supplying and extracting air from the condenser of a wall-mounted air conditioning unit monoblock, which connects to two tiltable components.

NEW: The invention is further based on the object of providing an improved device for supplying and extracting air from the condenser of a wall-mounted air conditioning unit monoblock, which follows the structural conditions of the tiltable components.

The invention is based on the additional object of providing an improved device for supplying and extracting air from the condenser of a wall-mounted air conditioning unit monoblock, which can be dismantled and reassembled at another suitable location together with the air conditioning unit monoblock.

The invention solves these problems according to the marked part of the protection claim 1 in that two air ducts with an adapter are installed between the condenser of the air conditioner monoblock and two existing tiltable components with an external opening. As a result, the supply air duct and the exhaust air duct of the condenser are carried out separately via two existing tiltable components, such as tilting windows or tilting doors, without any structural measures being necessary. The subclaims indicate advantageous design options for the air duct adapter device.

In technical terms, the term "tiltable component" includes tilting doors, tilting windows, tilting gates and tilting flaps in the roof, living room, work area, kitchen, sanitary area and basement of buildings, as well as in garages, halls and buildings in general. The term “tiltable component with external opening” chosen for the present invention clarifies the transition (space gap) from the interior of the room to the exterior, via the tiltable component.

1 simply shows the conventional supply and exhaust air routing of a wall-mounted air conditioner monoblock ( 1 ), mounted above a tilt window ( 2 ). Lines to the supply air ( 4 ) and exhaust ( 5 ) Connections on the capacitor ( 1.2 ) are in horizontal wall holes ( 6 ) that are set at the level of the connections ( 1b) ,

In order to avoid costly and labor-intensive construction measures requiring approval, a supply air and extract air device according to the invention is installed, consisting of an supply air duct ( 8th ) with adapter ( 11 ), running between the supply air connection ( 4 ) of the capacitor ( 1.2 ) and the gap ( 2.1 ) of an open tilt window ( 18 ), and consisting of an exhaust air duct ( 9 ) with adapter ( 11 ), running between the exhaust air connection ( 5 ) of the capacitor ( 1.2 ) and the gap ( 2.1 ) of the second open tilt window ( 18 ), as in the 4 . 5b and 7 shown.

The application of the supply air and extract air device according to the invention is not limited to tilting windows. Rather, the device can be applied to all tiltable components with an external opening known to the person skilled in the art.

2 shows an example of the position of a wall-mounted air conditioner monoblock ( 1 ) relative to two bottom-hung windows ( 2 ). The central positioning above the bottom hung window is also in the following 3 to 10 maintained. The technical expert can understand that the relative position can vary depending on structural and non-structural conditions.

5 describes the essential structural features of the new air supply and exhaust air device. The supply air duct ( 8th ) is at the supply air connection ( 4 ) of the capacitor ( 1.2 ), the exhaust air duct ( 9 ) to the exhaust air connection ( 5 ) of the capacitor ( 5a) , Supply and exhaust air ducts are connected via at least one telescopic bracket ( 22 ) on the wall ( 3 ) attached. The supply and exhaust air ducts each contain at least one length-variable region in their vertically running air duct region ( 21 ), for example a telescopic element. Using a telescopic bracket ( 22 ) and telescopic element ( 21 ) the portion of both channels facing the window is relative to the respective window gap ( 2.1 ) positioned such that after coupling the adapter ( 11 ) to the adapter connection ( 13 ) the adapter close to the window gap ( 2.1 ) is present. An adapter contains one or more elastic parts ( 14.2 ), which due to their accordion-like structure can be shaped by pulling and bending in both the length and the side orientation. By pulling and bending the elastic parts ( 14.2 ) the final adapter gap seal ( 17 ) of the adapter in the upper window gap ( 2.1 ) led to the airtight seal of the upper window gap ( 5b) ,

The adaper gap seals ( 17 ) seated air duct openings ( 16 ) there is air circulation: through a tilting window, supply air flows from the outside through the supply air opening ( 16.1 ) and the supply air duct ( 8th ) in the capacitor ( 1.2 ). The exhaust air of the Capacitor ( 1.2 ), after passage through the exhaust air duct ( 9 ) and the exhaust air opening ( 16.2 ) of the adapter ( 11 ), how 5b identifies.

The separate supply air and exhaust air routing via two tilt windows is in a particularly advantageous embodiment in 4 demonstrated. The supply air duct ( 8th ) consists of a short vertical part with a telescopic element ( 21 ) and a window-wide horizontal section that can be opened using a telescopic 22 ) adjustable in height on the wall above the left tilt window. The exhaust air duct ( 9 ) above the right tilt window is identical. When the device is in operation, a 4 ) Air Conditioner Monoblock () sitting fan 1 ) Fresh air from outside through the left-hand tilt window gap ( 2.1 ), Adapter ( 11 ) and supply air duct ( 8th ) in the condenser (arrow direction towards the air conditioner monoblock), and presses in behind the exhaust air connection ( 5 ) seated blower of the air conditioner monoblock ( 1 ) warm exhaust air through the exhaust air duct ( 9 ), Adapter ( 11 ) and right tilt window gap ( 2.1 ) outwards (arrow direction away from the air conditioner monoblock).

The routing of the air ducts for supply air ( 8th ) and exhaust air ( 9 ) varies depending on structural and non-structural conditions and is in several embodiments in the 3 . 6 . 8th . 9 and 10 shown. In the 3 (Variant 1 ), 6 (variant 2 ), 8 (variant 3 ) and 9 (variant 4 ) lead air ducts of different designs to two single bottom-hung windows, in 10 the air ducts lead to a double tilt window.

The width of the air duct openings ( 16.1 and 16.2 ) of an adapter and thus the width of the portion of an air duct running above a tilting window, horizontally to the window, is part of the optimal air circulation for operating the air conditioning unit monoblock ( 1 ) oriented and can therefore vary depending on the model. In the 3 . 6 , and 10 air ducts and adapters extend across the entire window width in the 8th and 9 air ducts and adapters extend over half the window width.

The air ducts are designed as round ducts or flat ducts made of suitable airtight and heat-resistant material. The air ducts are designed as one-part or multi-part ducts.

The airtight insulation of the side area of a tilting window does not fall within the scope of the present invention. Suitable foam blocks or elastic, inflatable air barriers in the form of a window side gap are conceivable for insulation. Insulation with foldable elements, as in EP2199525 A2 described, conceivable. The complete airtight insulation of the window column is carried out analogously ( 2.1 ) in 8th and 9 where there are no air ducts and adapters.

The advantages of the supply air and extract air device according to the invention are the avoidance of cost-intensive construction measures for supply and extract air routing of the condenser and the simple installation of the device between the air conditioner and two existing tiltable components with an external opening.

The device according to the invention has been described above in some embodiments. It goes without saying that numerous changes and modifications are possible, particularly with regard to the material nature and design of the air ducts ( 8th . 9 ) and their guidance between the wall-mounted air conditioner monoblock ( 1 ) and window gap ( 2.1 ) without thereby leaving the inventive concept on which this device is based.

The adapter disclosed here ( 11 ), as part of the new air supply and exhaust air device, is described by the inventor and applicant in the published utility model DE 202019002009U1 and in the submitted utility model with the file number DE 202019002489.2 , priority document DE 202019002009U1 , registered on April 29, 2019 and published on June 27, 2019, is incorporated as a whole in this utility model application.
