Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional air conditioning systems require a dedicated chamber for the air conditioner, necessitate close separation of air conditioner, exhaust, and intake ports to prevent short circuits, and are cumbersome to construct due to size constraints.
Innovation Solution
The system eliminates the need for a dedicated air conditioner chamber by placing the air conditioner and blowers in a return compartment, such as a staircase or corridor, where air intake sections and exhaust sections are strategically positioned to separate and diffuse air currents, allowing for optimal air conditioning without short circuits.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If a dedicated air conditioner chamber is provided, then the air conditioner can be properly installed and operated, but the construction becomes cumbersome and space-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The invention merges the air conditioner installation space with existing building structures such as staircases, corridors, or balconies. Instead of constructing a dedicated air conditioner chamber, the system utilizes these pre-existing spaces to house the air conditioner outdoor unit, thereby eliminating the need for additional construction work and reducing overall space requirements.
Solution Approach 2:
The invention makes existing building spaces serve multiple functions. Staircases, corridors, or balconies that originally served only as circulation or access areas now also function as housing spaces for the air conditioner outdoor unit. This multi-functional utilization reduces the need for dedicated single-purpose spaces.
2Area of stationary object
If the air conditioner, exhaust port and air supply port are placed close together, then the system is compact, but air short circuit occurs causing adverse circulation
Solution Approach 1:
The invention applies local quality by creating functionally differentiated zones within the shared installation space. The air supply port, exhaust port, and air conditioner outdoor unit are positioned in specific locations that exploit natural air flow patterns and pressure differentials. This localized optimization of air flow characteristics prevents short circuiting while maintaining compact overall dimensions.
Solution Approach 2:
The invention resolves the spatial conflict by utilizing three-dimensional space arrangement and air flow directionality. By strategically positioning intake and exhaust ports at different heights and orientations, and by directing air flows in different spatial dimensions, the system prevents adverse circulation while maintaining a compact footprint.
3Ease of operation
If a dedicated air conditioner chamber is constructed, then proper air conditioning can be achieved, but the construction complexity and difficulty increase
Solution Approach 1:
The invention combines the air conditioning function with existing building infrastructure. By installing the outdoor unit in already-constructed spaces like staircases or corridors, the system eliminates the need for separate chamber construction, reducing overall construction complexity while maintaining air conditioning effectiveness.
