[0025] The shell is a cuboid-like structure; The housing is provided with a condenser air inlet 15, an evaporator air inlet 19, an air outlet 16, and an exhaust outlet 20.

The condenser air inlet and the exhaust outlet are located on the housing on one side of the condenser; The evaporator air inlet and the air outlet are located on the casing on one side of the evaporator.

[0032] Compared to the previous embodiment, this application has only two layers, resulting in a larger horizontal area and higher floor space compared to a three-layer design, but a lower height. This caters to different user needs.

[0033] The tent air conditioner provided in this application includes a housing, within which a battery layer and an air conditioning layer are provided. The battery layer is located at the bottom of the tent air conditioner and contains a storage battery. The air conditioning layer is located above the battery layer and includes a cooling system and an air guiding system. In this application, the tent air conditioner is powered by a storage battery, eliminating the need for AC power and significantly expanding its usability. Furthermore, because the storage battery is relatively heavy, this application places it in the bottom battery layer, while the cooling system and air guiding system are located above it. This reduces the horizontal footprint of the tent air conditioner and prevents its center of gravity from being too high, making the tent air conditioner more stable during use and less prone to tipping over, greatly improving the user experience.

[0034] To illustrate the scheme of this application in more detail, the following will use... Figure 3 and Figure 4 The following is a detailed explanation using the tent air conditioner as an example: like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the portable tent air conditioner consists of a battery, compressor, condenser, evaporator, throttling valve, axial fan, cross-flow fan, controller, guide ring, bracket, shell, chassis, volute assembly, air guide plate, etc.

[0035] The internal structure is divided into three layers: bottom, middle, and top.

[0036] The bottom layer is the battery box, which is filled with multiple sets of batteries connected in series and parallel to form a storage battery.

[0037] An installation frame is installed inside the battery box, and the chassis and bracket are fixed with screws. The compressor and guide ring are mounted on the chassis. The condenser, motor bracket and axial fan on the guide ring are fixed. The motor of the axial fan blades is fixed by the motor bracket, and the motor bracket, in turn, supports the top plate of the guide ring.

[0038] On the top plate of the guide ring, a volute assembly and controller are installed. The volute assembly consists of an upper volute and a water receiving tray. The upper part of the upper volute and the water receiving tray form a complete volute. A cross-flow fan and a guide plate are installed in the volute part, and an evaporator is installed on the upper part of the water receiving tray.

[0039] The frame, chassis, and mounting skeleton are fixed in place, and the air guide ring is connected to the frame, chassis, and motor bracket, making the three-layer structure of the tent air conditioner a whole. Casters are installed at the bottom of the air conditioner.

[0040] The air conditioner is arranged in three layers: the heaviest battery is placed on the bottom layer, and the relatively heavy compressor is placed on the middle layer. This lowers the center of gravity of the air conditioner, allowing for stable placement. Although the air conditioner is relatively tall, its horizontal dimensions are small, minimizing its space occupation within the tent. The battery consists of multiple battery banks connected in series and parallel, providing 36V 40Ah power. This power is transmitted via a controller to the compressor, axial fan, cross-flow fan, and air guide motor, driving their operation. The evaporator and condenser are all-aluminum tube-fin heat exchangers or parallel flow heat exchangers, reducing weight. An exhaust port is located on the back of the air conditioner casing, corresponding to the condenser, and an exhaust duct is installed at the exhaust port to guide the hot air that has undergone heat exchange in the condenser outside the tent. The air conditioner has a compact internal structure, small size, and light weight, and is equipped with casters at the bottom for easy transport.

[0041] The portable tent air conditioner provided in this embodiment has dimensions of 420x220x520mm (length, width, and height), a gross weight of 20kg, and can provide a rated cooling capacity of 500W.

[0042] The portable tent air conditioner provided in this application embodiment uses a rechargeable 36V 40Ah battery to provide DC power. The evaporator and condenser adopt aluminum parallel flow heat exchangers or aluminum tube-fin heat exchangers. The air conditioner is divided into three layers: bottom, middle and top. The bottom layer is the heaviest battery pack. The middle layer is equipped with a heavier compressor, axial flow fan and condenser through a chassis. The top layer is equipped with a lighter controller, cross flow duct system and evaporator. The air conditioner components are connected into a whole by a bracket, resulting in a compact structure and small size.

[0043] The air conditioner can be powered by itself, and the aluminum heat exchanger saves costs and reduces weight. The air conditioner components are arranged in three layers: top, middle and bottom. Although the size is relatively large, the center of gravity is low and the placement is stable. The bottom-up layout also saves horizontal space in the tent. The size is small and the bottom is equipped with wheels for easy carrying.
