Air conditioning system

Details

Assignee:
Primary Examiner: King; Lloyd L.
Assistant Examiner:
Attorney, Agent or Firm: Walker & McKenzie

An air conditioning system for use with a hot water tank. The air conditioning system includes a first water-refrigerant heat exchanger for removing heat from compressed refrigerant and for heating water to be stored in the hot water tank, a second water-refrigerant heat exchanger for selectively removing heat from or adding heat to refrigerant, and an air-refrigerant heat exchanger for selectively removing heat from or adding heat to the refrigerant whereby air is selectively cooled or heated.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION I claim: 1.
An air conditioning system comprising, in combination: a refrigerant; a compressor means for compressing said refrigerant; a first water-refrigerant heat exchanger means for receiving said refrigerant from said compressor means and for regularly reducing the temperature of said refrigerant to below a certain predetermined degree; a hot water tank; a pump means for selectively pumping water from said hot water tank through said first water-refrigerant heat exchanger means to remove heat from said refrigerant received by said first water-refrigerant heat exchanger means; a second water-refrigerant heat exchanger means for receiving said refrigerant from said first water-refrigerant heat exchanger means; heat sensitive means for directing water through said second water-refrigerant heat exchanger means when the temperature of said refrigerant passing from said first water-refrigerant heat exchanger means to said second water-refrigerant heat exchanger means is above said certain predetermined degree; an air-refrigerant heat exchanger means for receiving said refrigerant from said first and second water-refrigerant heat exchanger means; and a blower means for blowing air across said air-refrigerant heat exchanger means causing an exchange of heat between said refrigerant being received by said air-refrigerant heat exchanger means and the air being blown across said air-refrigerant heat exchanger means to thereby condition the air being blown across said air-refrigerant heat exchanger means.

Description:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1.
Field of the Invention This invention relates in general to air conditioning systems for selectively heating and/or cooling the air within a house, building or the like.
2.
Description of the Prior Art Heretofore, various systems have been developed for heating and cooling the air within a house, building or the like.
Some heat pump type air conditioning systems consist in general of a compressor for compressing a refrigerant, a water-to-refrigerant heat exchanger for adding or removing heat from the refrigerant, and an air-to-refrigerant heat exchanger (commonly called a coil) for causing an exchange of heat between the refrigerant and the air within the house to thereby cool or heat the air within the house
