Description
PORTABLE Al R CONDI Tl ONER THAT CAN BE I NTEGRATED TO A DOOR
Technical Field of the I nvention
The present invention relates to a portable air conditioner that is capable of being integrated into household doors and which consumes a small space in a room .
Prior Art
There are known some air conditioners that condition (cool, dehumidify, optionally heat and filter dusts and particulates) indoor air in order to ensure a more convenient and efficient environment for people. Due to their nature, air conditioners are generally used for cooling or heating indoor air. Operating method for air conditioners includes evaporating a fluid in liquid state with a determined pressure at a desired temperature and retransforming said fluid into liquid state from gaseous state. A matter in the liquid state is saturated with heat in addition to pressure and is transformed into gaseous state, which is a process called phase change. A refrigerant used as a circuit material is absorbed, compressed and condensed through a compressor. Thanks to the particular chemical compounds used in air conditioners, vaporization is provided and the characteristic of this state change is utilized as heating or cooling. A cycle including recondensing the fluid evaporated through a closed-coil system is provided.
The air conditioners known in the prior art are used in several areas, from houses, vehicles to the places of work and education. As for household air conditioners, the air conditioner is formed of an inner unit and an outer unit. The inner unit is located in the area to be conditioned while the outer unit is placed outside, preferably in an environment where it would be in contact with outdoor air. The air conditioner is in the form of a body wherein its inner unit is located within the environment to be heated or cooled, and said body comprises components including an evaporator, an evaporator fan motor, a thermostat and an expansion valve. The outer unit of the air conditioner is in the form of a body that is located outside the environment, outdoors, and said unit comprises components such as a condenser, a condenser fan and a dryer.
I n the prior art, the air conditioners used to have a copper pipe coupling, between its outer unit and inner unit. Walls of buildings need to be drilled in order to enable such pipe coupling between the outer unit and the inner unit. Furthermore, the outer unit has to be fixed to the exterior walls of the buildings. To eliminate these drawbacks occurring during mounting of air conditioners, the air conditioners that can be mounted on windows in the prior art have been provided; however, in these types of air conditioners, some portions of window panes should be cut to allow hot air discharge or the window panes should be kept open so as to allow a hot air pipe to discharge outside. Moreover, the need of cutting window panes of all rooms where air conditioners are located or keeping them open for hot air discharge results in efficiency losses at a very significant rate and it also has a bad appearance aesthetically.
Another disadvantage in the prior art is that the compressor within the inner unit located in a room makes too much noise, and this noise has a negative effect on user convenience.
An invention disclosed in a document numbered CN204254739 in the prior art discloses a household air conditioner comprising an outer unit and an inner unit that performs circulation between indoor air and outdoor air.
Another invention described in a document numbered US7992404B2 in the prior art describes a connecting rod that is used to be secured on household windows and is disposed between an inner body and an outer body, which allows a fluid connection there-between. Said connecting rod forms a bridge between the inner unit and the outer unit, which is used to ensure that the units can be hung on both sides of the window.

Another aim of the invention is to provide a portable air conditioner that can be integrated to a door and that can be fixed onto the door after being mounted thereon and which moves together with the door.
Another further aim of the invention is to provide a portable air conditioner that can be
integrated to a door, and has smart technology.
Another aim of the invention is to provide a portable air conditioner that can be integrated to a door that is capable of reducing or eliminating the noise inside a room caused by the operation of the compressor which is located outside the room.

• a locking mechanism (4) including at least an elastic element (43) that is located at the end portion of the connection element (42) which is in contact with the door (K) and prevents any possible deformation that might occur on the door leaf (K) .
Following the rotation of the connection element (42) around its own axis, the connection element (42) can move inside the screw hole provided on the locking element (41 ) such that it moves closer towards the door leaf (K) or moves away from the door (K) . I f it is desired for the body (2) to be secured onto the door leaf (K) , an end portion of the connection element (42) is enabled to be in contact with the door leaf (K) by rotating the connection element (42) , and therefore the body (2) can be secured on the door leaf (K) by means of the created pressure force.
