Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
185 words
A split-type air-conditioning apparatus including a refrigerant control, and a evaporator connected to conventional refrigeration system such as a compressor, condenser, and a drier strainer, said comprising in combination: an insulated water reservoir having at least three water chambers, the refrigerant control before the evaporator coil, said bare evaporator coil disposed in the three water chambers, a plurality of by-pass cooler tubes connected two of said three water chambers to provide transfer of water from one chamber to the other, an agitating means provided in one of said water chamber to facilitate circulation of water in said reservoir, a blower means mounted on top of said reservoir, an air duct disposed at the rear portion of said reservoir to transfer the air present at the area of the by-pass cooler tubes of the blower means, and an endless net mesh rotatably disposed in between said blower means and air duct, said endless net mesh having the lower portion thereof communication with the water inside one of said water chambers and allow water therefrom to be carried away by the cool air and contain moisture therefore.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
185 words
A split-type air-conditioning apparatus including a refrigerant control, and a evaporator connected to conventional refrigeration system such as a compressor, condenser, and a drier strainer, said comprising in combination: an insulated water reservoir having at least three water chambers, the refrigerant control before the evaporator coil, said bare evaporator coil disposed in the three water chambers, a plurality of by-pass cooler tubes connected two of said three water chambers to provide transfer of water from one chamber to the other, an agitating means provided in one of said water chamber to facilitate circulation of water in said reservoir, a blower means mounted on top of said reservoir, an air duct disposed at the rear portion of said reservoir to transfer the air present at the area of the by-pass cooler tubes of the blower means, and an endless net mesh rotatably disposed in between said blower means and air duct, said endless net mesh having the lower portion thereof communication with the water inside one of said water chambers and allow water therefrom to be carried away by the cool air and contain moisture therefore.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
29 words
An apparatus as described in claim 1 where in said agitating means includes an agitating blade attached to a vertical shaft and an agitator motor coupled to said shaft.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
35 words
