Window type air-conditioner and installation method thereof

A window type air conditioner installable on a window frame, the window type air conditioner comprising:

• an outdoor module including:
• a compressor configured to compress a refrigerant,
• an outdoor heat exchanger configured to perform heat exchange between outdoor air and the refrigerant, and
• an outdoor housing configured to accommodate the compressor and the outdoor heat exchanger;
• an indoor module including:
• an indoor heat exchanger configured to perform heat exchange between indoor air and the refrigerant, and
• an indoor housing spaced apart from the outdoor housing and configured to accommodate the indoor heat exchanger;
• a refrigerant pipe through which the refrigerant moves between the indoor module and the outdoor module, the refrigerant pipe including:
• a first refrigerant pipe configured to connect between the compressor and the indoor heat exchanger, and
• a second refrigerant pipe configured to connect between the outdoor heat exchanger and the indoor heat exchanger;
• and
• a connection support module including:
• a first connection rod having an inner circumferential surface, the first connection rod including:
• a first refrigerant connection frame configured to surround the first refrigerant pipe, and
• a second refrigerant connection frame configured to surround the second refrigerant pipe, and
• a sealing member arranged inside the first connection rod,
• wherein the connection support module is configured so that
• the connection support module connects the indoor module and the outdoor module, and supports a positional relationship between the indoor module and the outdoor module,
• the refrigerant pipe extends through the first connection rod so that an inner circumferential surface of the first connection rod is spaced apart from an outer circumferential surface of the refrigerant pipe,
• the sealing member is arranged between the outer circumferential surface of the refrigerant pipe and the inner circumferential surface of the first connection rod to form a seal between the refrigerant pipe and the first connection rod, and
• the first refrigerant connection frame and the second refrigerant connection frame are arranged along a vertical direction.
