Hello everyone, summer is coming soon, which means you need to somehow fight the heat. The best option for such purposes is air conditioning, but you won’t take it with you, and not everyone has it. The way out of this situation is a small portable air conditioner, which you can do do it yourself. Of course, he will not cool much the room, but sitting in front of such a cooling room will be very pleasant. The design of the proposed air conditioner is very simple, it cools the air due to ice in bottles, which fit into the device. If desired, such an air conditioner can also work as a humidifier, if you put an open container with water in it. By the way, when water evaporates, the temperature will fall even more intensively. If homemade Interested in you, I propose to get acquainted with the project in more detail.
Materials and tools used by the author:
Material List:
- Plastic container;
- ;
- sewer plastic pipes or the like;
- switch;
- socket for connecting the power supply;
- power supply for 12V;
- insulation (building).
Tool List:
- soldering iron;
- stationery knife;
- glue gun.
Homemade manufacturing process:
Step one. Fan installation
First, let's find a suitable plastic container, it should be with a lid. We will install it in the lid, draw circles along the diameter of the fans and cut holes. If there is no suitable size crown, you can cut a circle with a soldering iron, and then finish the edges with a clerical knife.
To mount the fans, we make holes and fasten the fans with screws. The propellers must work by blowing air into the container, passing by ice bottles, it will cool and exit through the pipes.
Step Two Output pipes
It is not necessary to install these tubes at all; air can exit directly from the openings in the container. But thanks to the tubes, you can direct the air in the right direction by changing their angle. This is convenient if you sit together at the air conditioner, you can direct each individual flows.Pipes fit plumbing or other similar.
Step Three Assembly
We install a socket for connecting the power supply in the container body, as well as a switch. After that, you can solder the wires to the fans.
Step Four Insulation
Insulation must be glued inside the container, it is needed so that cold bottles do not give their cold to the body. We glue the container with foamed insulation, which is usually used as a linoleum substrate and so on. The author used a glue gun as glue.
Step Five Launch
For the air conditioner to work, you will need bottles with frozen water, this will be the source of the cold. We put them in a container so that they do not block the outgoing tubes. We cover the box with a lid and turn on the fans, cold air should immediately flow from the pipes. Now you can escape from the hot summer days.
