Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of air conditioning technology, and in particular to an energy-saving tent air conditioner that is easy to install quickly. Background Technology

[0002] In a wide range of applications such as outdoor camping, emergency rescue, and temporary operations, tents serve as the core shelter space, and the control of their internal thermal environment is crucial. Especially under hot, humid, or strong sunlight conditions, the interior of a tent is prone to a "greenhouse effect" that is significantly higher than the ambient temperature, leading to unbearable heat and seriously affecting the comfort, health, and work efficiency of users. Therefore, tent air conditioners are installed outside the tent, and the tent air conditioners deliver cool air into the tent through pipes to cool the interior. The tent's structure is convex upwards, so when sunlight shines on the tent, the heat will accumulate in the top space inside the tent and then diffuse downwards. At the same time, in the existing tent air conditioning technology, after the air supply pipes are inserted into the tent, the temperature is low near the air outlet of the pipes while the temperature is high in other places, resulting in uneven temperature and thus limitations.

[0003] Therefore, we propose an energy-saving tent air conditioner that is easy to install quickly. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides an energy-saving tent air conditioner that is easy to install quickly, which overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art and aims to solve the problems in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an energy-saving tent air conditioner that is easy to install quickly, comprising: The system comprises a housing, an air conditioning unit, a water storage tank, a delivery pipe, and a distribution pipe; both the air conditioning unit and the water storage tank are located inside the housing; rollers are provided at the bottom of the housing; and the delivery pipe is connected to the air conditioning unit. The front end of the dispersion tube has an annular groove, allowing adjacent dispersion tubes to be joined together. A locking rod is rotatably connected to the front end of the dispersion tube, and a fixing groove is provided at the rear end. A first rod is provided on both sides of the front end of the dispersion tube; a second rod is provided on both sides of the rear end of the dispersion tube. The first and second rods are rotatable. An insulating cloth is connected to both the first and second rods on the same side. A heat-insulating coating is sprayed onto the insulating cloth. Flexible air outlet pipes are evenly distributed on the insulating cloth. The flexible air outlet pipes are connected to the dispersion tubes and are made of airtight fabric.

[0006] Preferably, a connecting rope is connected to the upper side of the dispersion tube; the other end of the connecting rope is connected to a spring clip.

[0007] By installing a tent air conditioner, a distribution pipe is installed at the top of the tent, and an insulating cloth is placed on both sides of the distribution pipe. A flexible air outlet pipe is installed on the distribution pipe and connected to the insulating cloth. This allows the air conditioner to blow cool air evenly downwards from the top of the tent, making the temperature inside the tent more uniform. At the same time, the insulating cloth separates the top and bottom of the tent, reducing the amount of heat generated by sunlight from the top and reducing the downward flow of air from the top. This results in less cooling air needed to lower the temperature inside the tent, making it more energy-efficient.

[0008] Preferably, the dispersion tube is recessed outward in the middle; an adsorption layer is uniformly disposed on the insulating cloth; an opening is provided on the dispersion tube; a water pump is disposed in the water storage tank; the water pump pipe enters the dispersion tube along with the delivery pipe; the adsorption layer enters the dispersion tube through the opening and extends to the recessed part of the dispersion tube.

[0009] By setting an adsorption layer on the insulating cloth and then passing the adsorption layer into the dispersion tube to contact the condensate, the adsorption layer humidifies the inside of the tent, ensuring that the tent is not too dry.

[0010] Preferably, fixing blocks are installed at both the front and rear ends of the dispersion tube; the first rod and the second rod are rotatably connected to the corresponding fixing blocks; The two sides of the dispersion tube are slidably connected to fixed rods; the two ends of the fixed rods are fixedly connected to elastic rods; the ends of the first rod and the second rod near the fixed block are fixedly connected to connecting blocks; the two connecting blocks are in opposite positions; the elastic rod is L-shaped and is hinged to the connecting block.

[0011] Preferably, the dispersion tube has an installation groove; the fixing block is rotatably connected in the installation groove; an installation screw is threaded between the fixing block and the dispersion tube; the rotation of the fixing block is adjusted by rotating the installation screw.

[0012] By pushing the connecting block back and forth with the fixed rod, the two connecting blocks on the fixed block, which are set opposite to each other, cause the first rod and the second rod to rotate in opposite directions, thereby unfolding the isolation cloth. Then, by pushing the fixed rod on the adjacent dispersion tube with the fixed rod, all the isolation cloths can be unfolded, which is convenient for operation.

[0013] Preferably, a pair of locking blocks are provided on the outer side of the conveying pipe; both of the locking blocks are semi-circular and can lock into each other; sealing rods are uniformly hinged to the outer side of the locking blocks; and a sealing cloth is connected between the two sealing rods.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are: 1. This invention, when installing a tent air conditioner, involves installing a distribution pipe on the top of the tent and then setting up insulating fabric on both sides of the distribution pipe. A flexible air outlet pipe is installed on the distribution pipe and connected to the insulating fabric. This allows the air conditioner to blow cool air evenly downwards from the top of the tent, making the temperature inside the tent more uniform. At the same time, the insulating fabric separates the top and bottom of the tent, thereby reducing the downward diffusion of a large amount of heat generated by sunlight from the top and reducing the downward flow of air from the top. This results in less cooling air needed to lower the temperature inside the tent, making it more energy-efficient.

[0015] 2. This invention humidifies the inside of the tent by setting an adsorption layer on the insulating cloth and then passing the adsorption layer into a dispersion tube to contact with condensate water, thus ensuring that the inside of the tent is not too dry.

[0016] 3. This invention uses a fixed rod to push the connecting block back and forth, causing the two connecting blocks on the fixed block to rotate in opposite directions, thus unfolding the isolation cloth. Then, the fixed rod pushes the fixed rod on the adjacent dispersion tube to unfold all the isolation cloth, making it easy to operate. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] Example 1: Refer to the appendix of the instruction manual. Figures 1 to 6 An energy-efficient tent air conditioner that is easy to install quickly includes: The system includes an outer casing 1, an air conditioning unit 11, a water storage tank 12, a delivery pipe 13, and a distribution pipe 14; the air conditioning unit 11 and the water storage tank 12 are both located inside the outer casing 1; rollers are provided at the bottom of the outer casing 1; the delivery pipe 13 is connected to the air conditioning unit 11. An annular groove is provided at the front end of the dispersion tube 14, allowing two adjacent dispersion tubes 14 to be spliced ​​together; a locking rod 2 is rotatably connected to the front end of the dispersion tube 14, and a fixing groove 21 is provided at the rear end of the dispersion tube 14; a first rod 22 is provided on both sides of the front end of the dispersion tube 14; a second rod 23 is provided on both sides of the rear end of the dispersion tube 14; the first rod 22 and the second rod 23 are rotatable; an insulating cloth 24 is connected to the first rod 22 and the second rod 23 on the same side; a heat-insulating coating is sprayed on the insulating cloth 24; flexible air outlet pipes 25 are evenly arranged on the insulating cloth 24; the flexible air outlet pipes 25 are connected to the dispersion tube 14, and the flexible air outlet pipes 25 are made of airtight fabric.

[0021] In this invention, a connecting rope 4 is connected to the upper side of the dispersing tube 14; the other end of the connecting rope 4 is connected to a spring clip 41.

[0022] In this invention, when installing a tent air conditioner on a tent, the outer casing 1 and the air conditioner unit 11 are placed on an open ground next to the tent to prevent the noise generated by the air conditioner from affecting the rest of the people inside the tent. One end of the delivery pipe 13 is connected to the air conditioner unit 11, and the other end passes through a pre-reserved opening or window on the tent and enters the tent. Then, the spring clip 41 on the distribution pipe 14 is clamped to the top of the tent or the support frame inside the tent, so that the distribution pipe 14 is installed on the top of the tent. Next, the distribution pipes 14 are spliced ​​together, and the front end of the distribution pipe 14 is inserted into the rear end of the adjacent distribution pipe 14. Then, the locking rod 2 on the distribution pipe 14 is rotated and inserted into the fixing groove 21 on the adjacent distribution pipe 14. The dispersion tube 14 is installed on the top of the tent. The front end of the dispersion tube 14 at the very end is closed. Rubber sleeves can be installed at both ends of the dispersion tube 14 to ensure a tight seal. After the dispersion tube 14 is installed, the first rod 22 and the second rod 23 on both sides of the dispersion tube 14 are rotated to unfold the insulation cloth 24. The insulation cloth 24 separates the space inside the tent. Under sunlight, the top of the tent forms strong downward heat radiation. After the insulation cloth 24 is unfolded, it can isolate and reflect the heat radiation, thereby reducing the heat radiation from spreading to the area where people are active below the tent. At the same time, after the insulation cloth 24 is unfolded, it prevents the air from flowing downward at the top of the tent, thereby reducing the temperature inside the tent under sunlight. The flexible air outlet duct 25 on the insulation fabric 24 is made of non-breathable fabric and is connected to the dispersion duct 14. The cold air generated by the air conditioning unit 11 enters the dispersion duct 14 through the delivery pipe 13 and then blows out downward from the flexible air outlet duct 25, so that the cold air is evenly distributed downward in the tent and the temperature inside the tent is more uniform. The insulation fabric 24 is provided with a heat insulation coating, so the heat above the insulation fabric 24 will not affect the flexible air outlet duct 25 below. This invention employs a method where, when installing a tent air conditioner, a dispersion pipe 14 is installed on the top of the tent, and an insulating cloth 24 is placed on both sides of the dispersion pipe 14. A flexible air outlet pipe 25 is installed on the dispersion pipe 14 and connected to the insulating cloth 24. This allows the air conditioner to blow cool air evenly downwards from the top of the tent, making the temperature inside the tent more uniform. At the same time, the insulating cloth 24 isolates the top and bottom of the tent, thereby reducing the downward diffusion of a large amount of heat generated by sunlight from the top and reducing the downward flow of air from the top. This results in less cooling air required to lower the temperature inside the tent, making it more energy-efficient.

[0023] Example 2: Based on Example 1, refer to the appendix of the instruction manual. Figures 1 to 6 In this invention, the dispersion tube 14 is recessed outward in the middle; an adsorption layer 3 is uniformly disposed on the insulating cloth 24; an opening 31 is provided on the dispersion tube 14; a water pump is provided in the water storage tank 12; the water pump pipe enters the dispersion tube 14 along with the delivery pipe 13; the adsorption layer 3 enters the dispersion tube 14 through the opening 31 and extends to the recessed part of the dispersion tube 14.

[0024] In this invention, when installing the dispersion tube 14, the end connected to the conveying pipe 13 is raised, and a downwardly recessed groove is set in the dispersion tube 14. The adsorption layer 3 on the insulating cloth 24 extends into the groove. In this way, when the air conditioning unit 11 is working, the condensate generated is stored in the water storage tank 12. The water pump in the storage tank works and sends water through the pipe into the dispersion tube 14. The water flows along the dispersion tube 14 and is stored in the groove, thereby wetting the adsorption layer 3. After the water on the adsorption layer 3 evaporates, it ensures that the inside of the tent is not too dry. The present invention humidifies the inside of the tent by setting an adsorption layer 3 on the insulating cloth 24 and then passing the adsorption layer 3 into the dispersion tube 14 to contact the condensate water, thereby ensuring that the inside of the tent is not too dry.

[0025] In this invention, fixing blocks 32 are installed at both the front and rear ends of both sides of the dispersion tube 14; rod 22 and rod 23 are rotatably connected to the corresponding fixing blocks 32. The two sides of the dispersion tube 14 are slidably connected to fixed rods 33; the two ends of the fixed rods 33 are fixedly connected to elastic rods 34; the ends of the first rod 22 and the second rod 23 near the fixed block 32 are fixedly connected to connecting blocks 35; the two connecting blocks 35 are in opposite positions; the elastic rods 34 are L-shaped and are hinged to the connecting blocks 35.

[0026] In this invention, the dispersing tube 14 is provided with an installation groove 5; the fixing block 32 is rotatably connected in the installation groove 5; the fixing block 32 and the dispersing tube 14 are threadedly connected by an installation screw 51; the fixing block 32 is adjusted to rotate by rotating the installation screw 51.

[0027] In this invention, rod 22 and rod 23 are mounted on the dispersion tube 14 via a fixing block 32. Both rods 22 and 23 are inwardly attached to the side of the dispersion tube 14. When rods 22 and 23 need to be unfolded, one rod on the same side rotates clockwise and the other counterclockwise, requiring opposite rotation directions. This invention addresses this by connecting elastic rods 34 to the fixing rod 33. The elastic rods 34 at both ends of the fixing rod 33 are hinged to two oppositely oriented connecting blocks 35. Thus, when the fixing rod 33 pushes the elastic rods 34, it causes… The two connecting blocks 35 rotate in opposite directions, and the elastic rod 34 bends elastically during the rotation of the connecting blocks 35. After all the dispersing tubes 14 are connected together, by pushing the fixing rod 33 on the last dispersing tube 14, the fixing rod 33 on the last dispersing tube 14 pushes the fixing rod 33 on the adjacent dispersing tube 14 forward. In this way, by pushing the fixing rod 33 once, all the first rod 22 and the second rod 23 can be unfolded with the isolation cloth 24, which is convenient for operation. After the isolation cloth 24 is unfolded, bolts are used to pass through the fixing rod 33 to fix the fixing rod 33 to the dispersing tube 14 to prevent the fixing rod 33 from moving. In this invention, the fixing block 32 is connected to the dispersion tube 14 by mounting bolts. By adjusting the mounting bolts, the fixing block 32 can be rotated downwards, thereby adjusting the angles of the first pole 22, the second pole 23 and the insulating cloth 24, which can adapt to tent tops with different tilt angles. The present invention pushes the connecting block 35 back and forth by the fixing rod 33, so that the two connecting blocks 35 arranged oppositely on the fixing block 32 drive the first rod 22 and the second rod 23 to rotate in opposite directions, thereby unfolding the isolation cloth 24. Then, the fixing rod 33 pushes the fixing rod 33 on the adjacent dispersion tube 14 to unfold all the isolation cloths 24, which is convenient for operation.

[0028] In this invention, a pair of locking blocks 6 are provided on the outside of the conveying pipe 13; the pair of locking blocks 6 are both semi-circular and can lock into each other; sealing rods 61 are uniformly hinged on the outside of the locking blocks 6; a sealing cloth 62 is connected between the two sealing rods 61.

[0029] In this invention, after the delivery pipe 13 enters the tent through the window, two locking blocks 6 can be installed and locked onto the delivery pipe 13 on one side inside the tent. Then, the sealing rod 61 is rotated so that the sealing rod 61 and the sealing cloth 62 cover the area around the window. In this way, the delivery pipe 13 continuously blows cold air into the tent, making the air pressure inside the tent slightly higher than outside the tent, which can prevent hot air from outside the tent from entering the tent through the gap between the window and the delivery pipe 13.

[0030] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the present invention as claimed. The scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
