This is a block diagram showing the connection relationship between the solar power generation unit, battery unit, connection terminal, refrigerant supply unit, blower, and additional blower applied to an umbrella-type air conditioner.

[0035] An umbrella-type air conditioner (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention is an invention that can block ultraviolet rays in various outdoor areas such as golf courses, mountain climbing, fishing, and picnics, and can supply cool air to the user to keep them cool, and can be easily unfolded or folded for portability, and is operated by a battery, making it easy to use outdoors.

[0036] An umbrella-type air conditioner (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention may include at least one of an umbrella shaft (10), a film forming portion (20a, 20b), a cooling portion (30), a spray portion (40), a cooling plate (70), an expansion portion (80), a dehumidifying filter (90), 2 to 8 radial spray nozzles (100), an extension spray pipe (110), and a solar power generation portion (120).

[0037] The umbrella stand (10) can be formed into a rod shape with a certain length and thickness.

[0038] A handle (11) that the user holds with his / her hand is formed on the lower side of the umbrella stand (10).

[0039] The inner space (10a) of the umbrella stand (10) accommodates a refrigerant circulation pipe (31) described later, and an empty space is formed to raise cold air generated by the interaction between the refrigerant supply unit (32) and the refrigerant circulation pipe (31).

[0040] On the upper side of the umbrella stand (10), a rotation guide ring (12) is formed to which the folding ribs (201a, 201b) forming the film forming portion (20a, 20b) according to the first embodiment described later are axially connected.

[0041] Along the circumference of the rotation guide ring (12), receiving grooves are formed at regular intervals to receive and axially couple the upper sides of the folding ribs (201a) according to the first embodiment.

[0042] The folding ribs (201a, 201b) can rotate in the up and down directions based on the aforementioned axis.

[0043] On the lower side of the umbrella stand (10), a catch (13) for fixing the unfolding section (2) described later, a button (14) connected to the catch (13) and protruding outward from the umbrella stand (10), and an elastic spring for elastically supporting the catch (13) in the empty space of the umbrella stand (10) are installed.

[0044] The catch (13), button (14) and elastic spring are technologies commercialized in the umbrella field, so a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

[0045] Additionally, the umbrella stand (10) further includes a first housing (150) installed on the upper side of the handle (11) and a second housing (160) installed on the lower side of the handle (11).

[0046] The first housing (150) and the second housing (160) can be formed in a box shape with an empty space formed inside.

[0047] In the empty space of the first housing (150), a certain area of ​​the refrigerant circulation pipe (31) described later, a refrigerant supply unit (32) and a blower (50) are stored.

[0048] A certain area of ​​the upper surface of the first housing (150) is opened to allow the refrigerant circulation pipe (31) to pass through while allowing the wind generated from the blower (50) to pass through.

[0049] And, a through hole is formed on the bottom surface of the first housing (150) through which a certain area of ​​the refrigerant circulation pipe (31) passes.

[0050] The second housing (160) is positioned at a predetermined distance below the first housing (150).

[0051] The empty space of the second housing (160) houses a battery unit (140), a heat dissipation unit (314), and an additional blower (60).

[0052] The battery section (140) is electrically connected to the refrigerant supply section, the blower (50) motor, and the motor of the additional blower (60).

[0053] Accordingly, the battery unit (140) supplies power to the refrigerant supply unit (32), the blower (50) motor, and the motor of the additional blower (60).

[0054] The battery section (140) is formed of a secondary battery that can be repeatedly charged.

[0055] And, the battery section (140) can be charged through a commercial power source.

[0056] For this purpose, the battery section (140) further includes a USB connection terminal for charging.

[0057] At this time, the battery section (140) is optionally implemented as a detachable section so that it can be withdrawn from the second housing (160).

[0058] To this end, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, a detachable rail part (190) is embedded in the internal space of the second housing (160).

[0059] And, one side of the detachable rail part (190) is opened to allow the battery part (140) to enter and exit.

[0060] And, a storage space (190a) in which a battery unit (140) is stored is formed inside the detachable rail unit (190). The battery unit (140) slides along the bottom surface of the detachable rail unit (190).

[0061] Accordingly, after pulling out the battery unit (140) stored in the storage space (190a), you can charge it by connecting the charging cable to the USB connection terminal, and after charging is complete, you can push the battery unit (140) and store it back in the storage space (190a).

[0062] Additionally, a connection terminal (180) is installed on the ceiling surface of the second housing (160) to which a refrigerant supply unit (32) and a motor of a blower (50) and a motor of an additional blower (60) are electrically connected via a wire (lead wire). In addition, a connection terminal (141) electrically connected to the connection terminal (180) is formed on the upper surface of the battery unit (140).

[0063] Therefore, when the battery unit (140) is stored in the storage space (190a) of the detachable rail unit (190), the connection terminal (141) comes into contact with the connection terminal (180) and is electrically connected.

[0064] Due to this, the battery unit (140) supplies power to the refrigerant supply unit (32), the motor of the blower (50), and the motor of the additional blower (60).

[0065] A heat dissipation hole (161) is formed on the bottom surface of the second housing (160) through which the heat dissipation part (314) dissipates heat. A plurality of heat dissipation holes (161) may be applied to improve the dissipation effect, and these heat dissipation holes (161) may be arranged to be spaced apart from each other at a certain interval.

[0066] Additionally, a through hole is formed on the upper surface of the second housing (160) through which a certain area of ​​the refrigerant circulation pipe (31) passes.

[0067] At this time, the first housing (150) and the second housing (160) may be omitted. In this case, the blower (50), the refrigerant supply unit (32), the heat dissipation unit (314), and the additional blower (60) may be installed in the internal space (10a) of the umbrella stand (10).

[0068] Additionally, the umbrella stand (10) is equipped with an on / off button (3) that turns on or off the operation of the blower (50) motor, the refrigerant supply unit (32) and the motor of the additional blower (60).

[0069] When the on / off button (3) is pressed once, the blower (50) motor, the refrigerant supply unit (32) and the motor of the additional blower (60) are operated, and when the on / off button (3) is pressed once more, the blower (50) motor, the refrigerant supply unit (32) and the motor of the additional blower (60) are stopped.

[0070] Next, a first embodiment of the film forming portion (20a) will be described with reference to FIG. 2.

[0071] The membrane forming portion (20a) may include a plurality of folded ribs (201a) and a canopy (202a).

[0072] The folding rib (201a) operates in conjunction with the unfolding part (2) that moves in both directions along the umbrella shaft (10) to maintain the folded or unfolded state.

[0073] The folding rib (201a) is made of metal, just like the umbrella in the public domain.

[0074] And, the canopy (202a) is combined in a form that jointly covers the upper surface of the folding ribs (201a).

[0075] The canopy (202a) can be unfolded or folded together with the folding ribs (201a).

[0076] The canopy (202a) forms a kind of cover when unfolded.

[0077] The surface (upper surface) of the canopy (202a) may be coated with a waterproofing agent and an ultraviolet ray blocking agent.

[0078] The canopy (202a) functions to block rain, snow, ultraviolet rays, etc.

[0079] The unfolding section (2) is configured to unfold and unfold the film forming section (20a, 20b) or to fold the film forming section (20a, 20b).

[0080] The unfolding part (2) may include at least one of a lifting body (2a) that is raised or lowered along the umbrella shaft (10) in a sliding manner, as is known in the umbrella, and is supported on the lower surface of a spraying part (40) to be described later when raised, and includes a fixing hole in which a catch (13) is caught and fixed when lowered, a plurality of first unfolding ribs (2b) that are arranged to be spaced apart from each other at a certain interval on the lifting body (2a) and have their lower sides axially connected to the upper side of the lifting body (2a), and a second unfolding rib (2c) that is 1:1 connected to the first unfolding rib (2b) and the folding ribs (201a, 201b), and whose upper side is axially connected to the central part of the folding ribs (201a, 201b). In addition, the lower side of the second unfolding rib (2c) is axially connected to the upper side of the lifting body (2a).

[0081] Accordingly, when the elevator (2a) is lowered, the folding ribs (201a, 201b), the first unfolding ribs (2b), and the second unfolding ribs (2c) are each folded in a form that rotates about an axis, and at this time, the canopy (202a, 202b) is also folded. And, when the elevator (2a) is raised, the folding ribs (201a, 201b), the first unfolding ribs (2b), and the second unfolding ribs (2c) are each unfolded in a form that rotates about an axis, and at this time, the canopy (202a, 202b) is also unfolded to form a cover.

[0082] When the elevator (2a) is raised, its upper surface is supported on the lower surface of the injection unit (40).

[0083] The configuration of the elevating body (2a), the first unfolding rib (2b), the second unfolding rib (2c), the folding ribs (201a, 201b) and the canopy (202a, 202b) and the method of unfolding or folding the first unfolding rib (2b), the second unfolding rib (2c), the folding ribs (201a, 201b) and the canopy (202a, 202b) according to the rising and falling of the elevating body (2a) is a technology commercialized in umbrellas, so a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

[0084] At this time, the film forming part (20a, 20b) of the umbrella-type air conditioner (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention can be opened or closed in the same manner as an automatic umbrella.

[0085] In this case, the umbrella-type air conditioner (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention further includes a coil spring (2d) that moves the lifting body (2a) in the upward direction of the umbrella stand (10) when the hanging part (13) is pulled out from the fixing hole of the lifting body (2a).

[0086] And, in the umbrella-type air conditioner (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention, the film forming part (20a, 20b) can be opened or closed in the same manner as a manual umbrella.

[0087] In the case of the manual umbrella type, an additional catch portion having the same shape as the catch portion (13) described above is formed on the upper side of the umbrella stand (10).

[0088] Accordingly, when the elevator (2a) is raised, an additional catch is inserted and fixed into the fixing hole to stop the operation of the elevator (2a), thereby maintaining the canopy (202a, 202b) and the folding ribs (201a, 201b) in the unfolded state.

[0089] The cooling unit (30) is a configuration that generates cold air to be supplied to the user.

[0090] The cooling unit (30) may include at least one of a refrigerant circulation pipe (31) and a refrigerant supply unit (32).

[0091] The refrigerant circulation pipe (31) may include a curved pipe (311), a pair of first vertical pipes (312) each having an upper end connected to the curved pipe (311), a pair of second vertical pipes (313) each connected to the first vertical pipe (312), and a coil-shaped heat dissipation part (314) connecting the lower ends of the second vertical pipes (313).

[0092] The internal spaces of the curved pipe (311), the first vertical pipe (312), the second vertical pipe (313), and the heat dissipation unit (314) are connected to each other.

[0093] The refrigerant supply unit (32) can be formed as a compression compressor.

[0094] Based on Fig. 2, a first vertical pipe (312) located on the left and a second vertical pipe (313) located at the bottom are connected and installed in the refrigerant supply unit (32).

[0095] At this time, the second vertical pipe (313) located on the right and the second vertical pipe (313) located on the left may be formed to have a shape having a smaller inner diameter than the first vertical pipe (312). In addition, the first vertical pipe (312) located on the left and the first vertical pipe (312) located on the right may be formed to have the same inner diameter.

[0096] As another example, the second vertical pipe (313) located on the right and the second vertical pipe (313) located on the left may be formed to have a shape having an inner diameter smaller than that of the first vertical pipe (312), while the first vertical pipe (312) located on the left may be formed to have an inner diameter smaller than that of the first vertical pipe (312) located on the right.

[0097] The refrigerant supplied to the refrigerant supply unit (32) circulates sequentially along the second vertical pipe (313) located on the right, the heat dissipation unit (314), the second vertical pipe (313) located on the left, the first vertical pipe (312) located on the left, the curved pipe (311), and the first vertical pipe (312) located on the right. As a result, cold air is released into the internal space (10a) of the umbrella stand (10) by the refrigerant circulating in the refrigerant circulation pipe (31).

[0098] At this time, a refrigerant injection pipe (130) for injecting refrigerant into the interior of the refrigerant circulation pipe (31) described later may be installed through one side of the umbrella stand (10).

[0099] The refrigerant injection pipe (130) passes through a through hole formed in the umbrella stand and is connected to the first vertical pipe (312).

[0100] A certain area of ​​the refrigerant injection pipe (130) protrudes outside the umbrella stand (10).

[0101] A sealing plug or valve may be installed on the protruding portion of the refrigerant injection pipe (130).

[0102] Remove the sealing plug from the refrigerant injection pipe (130) or open the valve, then replenish the refrigerant to the refrigerant circulation pipe (31) using a known refrigerant injection device.

[0103] The additional blower (60) is placed on the upper side of the heat dissipation unit (314).

[0104] The additional blower (60) includes a motor installed on the ceiling surface of the second housing (160) and a fan that generates wind while being rotated by the motor.

[0105] The additional blower (60) is positioned to generate wind toward the heat dissipation unit (314).

[0106] As the refrigerant is heat-exchanged by the wind generated by the additional blower (60), the refrigerant heat is released into the atmosphere through the heat dissipation hole (161).

[0107] Accordingly, the liquid refrigerant discharged from the refrigerant supply unit (32) is cooled while moving along the heat dissipation unit (314) and then transferred to the second vertical pipe (313) located on the left.

[0108] The dehumidifying filter (90) is installed in the second vertical pipe (313). At this time, a certain area of ​​the second vertical pipe (313) may be formed to penetrate the dehumidifying filter (90). The dehumidifying filter (90) is attached to the second vertical pipe (313) using an adhesive or the like.

[0109] The dehumidifying filter (90) removes moisture generated in the internal space (10a) of the umbrella stand (10) by the refrigerant circulating in the refrigerant circulation pipe (31).

[0110] At this time, the drawing shows an example in which the dehumidifying filter (90) is installed only in the second vertical pipe (313) located on the left, but the dehumidifying filter (90) may be installed in one or more selected from the inside and outside of the curved pipe (311), the first vertical pipe (312) located on the left and right, and the second vertical pipe (313) located on the right.

[0111] The expansion member (80) is installed in the second vertical pipe (313) located on the left.

[0112] The expansion member (80) may be formed as an expansion valve. The refrigerant temperature decreases as it passes through the heat dissipation member, and when it passes through the expansion member (80) and moves to the first vertical pipe (312) which is wider than the second vertical pipe (313), it vaporizes into particles and begins to lower the external temperature by absorbing the heat of the first vertical pipe (312).

[0113] The expansion unit (80) expands the refrigerant and delivers it to the first vertical pipe (312) located on the left.

[0114] The spray unit (40) is configured to spray cold air existing in the internal space (10a) of the umbrella stand (10) to the user.

[0115] The spray unit (40) is attached to the upper end of the umbrella stand (10). The spray unit (40) can be formed in a tubular shape.

[0116] The injection unit (40) has an open bottom. A connecting space (41) is formed inside the injection unit (40) to connect with the internal space (10a) of the umbrella stand (10).

[0117] On the side of the injection unit (40), a spray means (42) is formed to spray cold air to the outside and supply it to the user.

[0118] The injection means (42) is formed alone to discharge cold air.

[0119] The spray means (42) can be applied in multiple numbers and are formed to be spaced apart at regular intervals along the periphery of the spray section (40). As a result, the cold air is sprayed radially.

[0120] The radial spray nozzle (100) is a configuration applied to supply cold air to the user more efficiently.

[0121] The radial spray nozzles (100) are each connected to the spray means (42).

[0122] The radial spray nozzle (100) has one side inserted into the spray means (42) and can be fixed using an adhesive.

[0123] The radial injection nozzle (100) is formed in a tubular shape.

[0124] The internal space of the radial injection nozzle (100) and the injection means (42) are connected.

[0125] Accordingly, the cold air sequentially passes through the connection space (41) of the injection unit (40), the injection means (42) and the radial injection nozzle (100) and is discharged to the outside.

[0126] And, the cold air discharged to the outside is supplied to the users located below.

[0127] At this time, the radial spray nozzle (100) is formed to have a length of, for example, about 3 cm to 15 cm, and can efficiently deliver cold air to the user compared to the method of discharging cold air through the spray means (42).

[0128] Additionally, the radial spray nozzle (100) is formed of an elastic material to operate in conjunction with the canopy (202a) forming the film forming portion (20a) and includes a plurality of fold guide folds (101). At this time, the fold guide folds (101) can be fixed to the spraying means (42).

[0129] The folded portion (101) for the folding guide is formed at regular intervals only in a certain area of ​​the radial spray nozzle (100).

[0130] And, the internal space of the folded portion (101) for the folding guide and the internal space of the radial injection nozzle (100) are connected to each other.

[0131] Accordingly, the cold air is transferred to the internal space of the radial spray nozzle (100) through the internal space of the folded portion (101) for the folding guide and then discharged through the open end of the radial spray nozzle (100).

[0132] At this time, the end of the radial spray nozzle (100) can be bent downwards through the folded portion (101) for the folding guide so that cold air can be concentrated and discharged toward the user positioned downwards.

[0133] Additionally, since the radial spray nozzle (100) is formed of an elastic material and includes a fold guide fold portion (101), it automatically unfolds by its own elastic force when the canopy (202a) unfolds, and when the canopy (202a) folds, it folds in a form in which pressure is applied to the canopy (202a) and it is bent.

[0134] Meanwhile, an umbrella-type air conditioner (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention may further include an extension spray pipe (110) coupled to a radial spray nozzle (100).

[0135] As shown in Fig. 3, the extension injection tubes (110) are each connected to the radial injection nozzles (100).

[0136] The extension nozzle (110) can be fixed to the radial nozzle (100) on one side using an adhesive.

[0137] The internal space of the radial injection nozzle (100) and the internal space of the extended injection pipe (110) are connected to each other.

[0138] The extension nozzle (110) is formed to have a length of about 30% to 90% of the length of the folding rib.

[0139] The internal space of the extension injection pipe (110) and the injection means (42) are connected. A plurality of injection holes (111) are formed at regular intervals on the bottom surface of the extension injection pipe (110) to inject cold air toward the user.

[0140] Accordingly, the cold air sequentially passes through the connection space (41) of the injection unit (40) and the injection means (42) and is supplied to the internal space of each extended injection pipe (110), and then is distributed and discharged through the injection holes (111).

[0141] And, the discharged cold air is supplied to the user located below.

[0142] At this time, the extension nozzle (110) is connected to the folding member (201a) using a fixing strap (170) or adhesive.

[0143] And, at least one extension nozzle (110) can be connected to one folding member (201a).

[0144] The extension nozzle (110) is formed of an elastic material so as to operate in conjunction with the folding rib (201a) and the canopy (202a).

[0145] Since the extension nozzle (110) is formed of an elastic material, it folds in a bent form when the canopy (202a) and the folding rib (201a) are folded, and when the canopy (202a) and the folding rib (201a) are unfolded, it unfolds naturally together with the folding rib (201a).

[0146] The radial spray nozzle (100) or extended spray tube (110) is applied only when the film forming portion (20a) applied to the umbrella-type air conditioner (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention is manufactured to have the same size as the film forming portion of a relatively small 1-2 person umbrella. This allows cold air to be concentrated on the user.

[0147] For example, the aforementioned radial injection nozzle (100) may be omitted, in which case an extended injection tube (110) is respectively connected to the injection means (42) instead of the radial injection nozzle (100).

[0148] At this time, the extended injection tube (110) may be inserted into the injection means (42) on one side and fixed using an adhesive. In addition, although not shown in the drawing, a folded portion (not shown) for a folding guide may be formed when the extended injection tube (110) is directly connected to the injection means.

[0149] The blower (50) includes a motor and a fan that generates wind while being rotated by the motor.

[0150] The blower (50) generates upward wind in the internal space of the first housing (150) and supplies cold air generated by the cooling unit (30) to the connection space (41) of the injection unit (40).

[0151] And, the cold air supplied to the connection space (41) is discharged to the branch through the injection means (42) and supplied to the user.

[0152] The cooling plate (70) is configured to increase the cooling area of ​​cold air moved to the connection space (41) of the injection unit (40) by the blower (50).

[0153] The cooling plate (70) can be formed of a metal material with excellent thermal conductivity to improve cooling efficiency.

[0154] The cooling plate (70) can be positioned only at a higher position than the blower (50). At least one cooling plate (70) can be positioned along the inner space (10a) of the umbrella stand (10). In addition, a refrigerant circulation pipe (31) passes through a certain area of ​​the cooling plate (70). In this case, for example, the cooling plate (70) can be welded to the refrigerant circulation pipe (31).

[0155] The internal space (10a) of the umbrella stand (10) also functions as a passage for cold air to rise, and the cooling plate (70) is formed to have a size that does not block the entire passage.

[0156] Additionally, a plurality of cooling plates (70) may be installed at regular intervals along the length of the first vertical pipe (312) located on the left and the first vertical pipe (312) located on the right.

[0157] At this time, the cooling plates (70) installed in the first vertical pipe (312) located on the left and the cooling plates (70) installed in the first vertical pipe (312) located on the right can be arranged in a zigzag shape in the vertical direction.

[0158] As the cold air rises, it exchanges heat by contact with the cooling plates (70) and then rises.

[0159] By increasing the cooling area of ​​the cold air through this principle, the efficiency of supplying cold air to the user can be improved.

[0160] Next, a second embodiment of the film forming portion (20b) will be described with reference to FIG. 5.

[0161] The membrane forming portion (20b) may include a plurality of folded ribs (201b) and a canopy (202b).

[0162] Since the canopy (202b) is the same as the canopy of the other embodiments described above, only the folding rib (201b) will be described below.

[0163] The folding bar (201b) is applied in multiple numbers. A plurality of slit holes (43) are formed at regular intervals along the circumference of the injection unit (40).

[0164] The slit hole (43) is connected to the injection means (42).

[0165] As shown in Fig. 5, one side of the folding member (201b) is accommodated in the injection means (42).

[0166] In addition, a fixed cap (203) provided at the end of the canopy (202b) is mounted on the other end of the folding rib (201b). (See Fig. 1) As a result, the folding rib (201b) and the canopy (202b) are linked to each other and operate to unfold or fold. In addition, the folding rib (201b) and the canopy (202b) are linked to the unfolding section (2) and operate to unfold or fold.

[0167] As shown in Fig. 6, a certain area of ​​the folding rib (201b) is accommodated in the slit hole (43), and the remaining area protrudes outside the slit hole (43).

[0168] On both sides of the area accommodated in the slit hole (43) of the folding member (201b), an axis (2011c) that penetrates and is installed in the injection unit (40) is formed.

[0169] Therefore, the folding rib (201b) can rotate in the up and down directions based on the axis (2011c).

[0170] The folding rib (201b) may be formed of metal or synthetic resin material. As illustrated in Fig. 7, the injection means (42) is formed in a longitudinal direction and has a diameter larger than that of the folding rib (201b).

[0171] Accordingly, a free space is secured above the portion of the folding rib (201b) accommodated in the injection means (42). As a result, the portion of the folding rib (201b) accommodated in the injection means (42) can also rotate in the up and down directions.

[0172] A second unfolding rib (2c) is axially connected to the folding rib (201b). In addition, a first unfolding rib (2b) is axially connected to the second unfolding rib (2c), and the first unfolding rib (2b) is axially connected to the lifting body (2a).

[0173] Accordingly, when the elevator (2a) rises along the umbrella pole (10), the first unfolding ribs (2b) are rotated to unfold away from the umbrella pole (10) and push the second unfolding ribs (2c) to unfold, and the second unfolding ribs (2c) are rotated to unfold away from the umbrella pole (10) and push the folding ribs (201b) to unfold. As a result, the canopy (202b) is also unfolded.

[0174] At this time, since the injection means (42) is formed in a long hole shape, even if the folding rib (201b) is folded, one side thereof always remains in a state of being received in the injection means (42).

[0175] And, when the elevator (2a) descends along the umbrella stand (10), the first unfolding ribs (2b) are folded in a direction approaching the umbrella stand (10) by means of a rotational operation, thereby pulling the second unfolding ribs (2c), and the second unfolding ribs (2c) are folded in a direction approaching the umbrella stand (10) by means of a rotational operation, thereby pulling the folding ribs (201b), thereby folding. As a result, the canopy (202b) is also folded.

[0176] As illustrated in Fig. 6, the folding rib (201b) has one side open facing the connecting space (41). Furthermore, an empty space connected to the connecting space (41) is formed inside the folding rib (201b). Furthermore, the other side of the folding rib (210b) is closed. Furthermore, a plurality of injection holes (2011b) are formed at regular intervals on the bottom surface of the folding rib (201b).

[0177] Accordingly, the cold air passes through the connecting space (21) of the injection unit (40) and flows into the empty space of the folding rib (201b), and the cold air thus introduced is discharged through the injection holes (2011b) into the branch. Ultimately, the cold air is supplied to the user located below, thereby cooling them down in the hot summer.

[0178] The folding rib (201b) according to the second embodiment is applied to widen the spray range of cold air when the film forming part (20b) applied to the umbrella-type air conditioner (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention is manufactured to have the same size as the film forming part of a relatively large 2-3 person umbrella such as a parasol or a large umbrella.

[0179] Meanwhile, the solar power generation unit (120) is configured to enable easy charging of the battery unit (140) even outdoors.

[0180] At least one solar power generation unit (120) can be installed on the upper surface of the canopy (202a, 202b), and the drawing shows an example in which a plurality of units are divided into several pieces and installed in a unit form.

[0181] The solar power generation unit (120) is formed of a flexible material so that it can be folded or unfolded together with the film forming unit (20a, 20b).

[0182] When the canopy (202a, 202b) is opened outdoors, the solar power generation unit (120) is opened together with the canopy (202a, 202b), and as a result, the solar power generation unit (120) converts solar energy into electrical energy and stores it in the battery unit (140).

[0183] And, the battery unit (140) supplies electric energy to the motor of the blower (50), the motor of the additional blower (60), and the refrigerant supply unit (32), respectively.

[0184] Through this solar power generation unit (120), each battery unit (140) can be easily charged even outdoors where power supply is difficult, enabling long-term use.

[0185] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without altering its technical spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments described above should be understood as illustrative in all respects and not restrictive. The scope of the present invention is defined by the claims below rather than the detailed description above, and all changes or modifications derived from the meaning and scope of the claims and their equivalents should be construed as being included within the scope of the present invention.
