The spring-loaded valves in the male self-sealing pipe fitting half 31 and the female self-sealing pipe fitting half 32 are sealed so as to prevent leakage of the medium and the presence of air or foreign matter before the first unit 1 and the second unit 2 are connected to each other. When the first unit 1 and the second unit 2 are connected to each other by means of the second connection, the fitting half portions at the two ends of the first long connection pipe portion 41 of the second connection are connected to each other in male-female cooperation with the fitting half portions located at the other end of the first connection pipe 131 of the first unit 1 and at the other end of the first connection pipe 271 of the second unit 2, respectively, and the fitting half portions at the two ends of the second long connection pipe portion 42 of the second connection are connected to each other in male-female cooperation with the fitting half 31 located at the other end of the second connection pipe 132 of the first unit 1 and the fitting half located at the other end of the second connection pipe 272 of the second unit 2, respectively, wherein the two fitting half portions are pulled together by tightening the female self-sealing pipe fitting half and the fluid passage is opened by opening the poppet assembly of the male self-sealing pipe fitting half and the sleeve assembly of the female self-sealing pipe fitting half, and a leak-free metal-to-metal seal is formed between the two fitting half portions when the metal ring located at the front of the male self-sealing pipe fitting half is fully engaged. Thus, a second split-type air conditioning configuration corresponding to the split-type air conditioning type is formed by means of the long connection pipe.The length of the long connecting pipe can be customized according to different requirements and scenarios: for example, when applied to vehicles such as recreational vehicles, the first unit can be placed on the top of the vehicle, and the second unit can be placed at the rear of the front compartment, so that the appropriate length of the long connecting pipe is selected for connection according to different sizes of the vehicle and other factors, to complete the installation and use of the split air conditioning configuration; in addition, for example, when the vehicle arrives at the site and the user gets off the vehicle to go camping and hiking, etc., the first unit can be detached from the vehicle and connected to the long connecting pipe of the corresponding length according to the distance of the site, and placed around the user or in the camping / hiking tent to adjust the air, thereby providing a more comfortable environment for the user.

[0039] Therefore, the air conditioning kit of the present application can realize two different configuration modes of the air conditioning kit by using different connecting pieces to connect different functional units of the kit, so that the corresponding configuration mode of the air conditioning kit can be selected according to different use scenarios and / or space settings, thereby eliminating the need for different air conditioning devices for different use scenarios and / or space settings, and improving the variability, selectivity and utilization rate of air conditioning use.

This pipe line arrangement makes it easier and more convenient to connect the first unit and the second unit, because the user only needs to operate on one side to complete the assembly of the air conditioning kit.

[0041] With reference to Figures 7A and 8A, the air conditioning kit of the present application operates in the cooling mode as follows: the compressor 21 is operated, and the third connecting line 273 is in communication with the compressor discharge port 212 of the compressor 21 via the reversing valve 25 in the cooling mode, gaseous medium is discharged from the compressor discharge port 212 and passes to the second heat exchanger 23 (operating as a condenser in the cooling function) via the third connecting line 273, and after heat exchange in the second heat exchange unit (the second heat exchanger fan 22 promotes the heat exchange), the gaseous medium forms liquid medium, which passes to the first heat exchanger 12 (operating as an evaporator in the cooling function) via the second connecting line 272, optionally via a throttling device, and then via the second connecting line 132 via the passage established by the connecting piece, air to be conditioned is directed to the first heat exchanger 12 via the first heat exchanger fan 11 and exchanges heat with the liquid medium (i.e. the liquid medium absorbs heat from the air to be conditioned), and the air after heat exchange is blown back to the space to be conditioned to provide conditioned cool air, and the medium after heat exchange forms gaseous medium, which returns to the compressor 21 via the first connecting line 131, via the passage established by the connecting piece, via the first connecting line 271 (which is in communication with the compressor suction port 211 of the compressor 21 via the reversing valve 25 in the cooling mode), and via the compressor suction port 211.

[0042] With reference to Figs. 7B and 8B, the air conditioning kit of the present application operates in the heating mode as follows: the compressor 21 is operated, and the first connection line 271 is in communication with the compressor discharge port 212 of the compressor via the reversing valve 25 in the heating mode, gaseous medium is discharged from the compressor discharge port 212 and passes through the first connection line 271, the passage established by the connection, the first connection line 131, to the first heat exchanger 12 (operating as a condenser in the heating function), the air to be conditioned is guided to the first heat exchanger 12 via the first heat exchanger fan 11 and exchanges heat with the gaseous medium (i.e. the gaseous medium transfers its heat to the guided air to be conditioned), the air after heat exchange is blown back to the space to be conditioned to provide conditioned warm air, and the medium after heat exchange forms liquid medium, which passes through the second connection line 132, the passage established by the connection, the second connection line 272 (optionally via the throttling device 26) to the second heat exchanger 23 (operating as an evaporator in the heating function), the liquid medium exchanges heat at the second heat exchanger 23 (the second heat exchanger fan 22 promotes the heat exchange) to form gaseous medium, which returns to the compressor 21 via the third connection line 273 (the third connection line 273 is in communication with the compressor suction port 211 of the compressor 21 via the reversing valve 25 in the heating mode), through the compressor suction port 211.
