Abstract
An air conditioning apparatus is provided with an air plenum in fluid communication with an air inlet and an air outlet. A fan moves air through the air plenum. An interchangeable air conditioning core is removably installed within the air plenum and interposed between the air inlet and air outlet such that air moving along an air pathway is forced to proceed through the interchangeable air conditioning core.
Claims20
An air conditioning apparatus, comprising:
- an exterior case comprising an air inlet and an air outlet;
- an air plenum disposed within the exterior case in fluid communication with the air inlet and air outlet;
- a fan communicating with the air inlet for moving air through the air plenum;
- an interchangeable air conditioning core removably installed within the air plenum and configured such that air is forced to proceed through the interchangeable air conditioning core by operation of said fan;
- and
- an air jacket extending adjacent the exterior case and located between said exterior case and the interchangeable air conditioning core, wherein air directed through the air jacket by operation of said fan does not pass through the interchangeable air conditioning core.
