Quick release heat dissipation pipe assembly for a portable air conditioner

Abstract

A quick release heat dissipation pipe assembly connected to a portable air conditioner and an opening of a window has a flexible heat dissipation pipe, a quick attachment collar, a quick release bushing and an adapter panel sequentially connected to one another. The quick release bushing is mounted quick detachably on the quick attachment collar. Therefore, the portable air conditioner may be attached to or detached from the opening of the window. The quick release heat dissipation pipe assembly excellently increases mobility of the portable air conditioner.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A quick release heat dissipation pipe assembly comprising:
 a flexible heat dissipation pipe having
 an inlet end; 
 an outlet end; and 
 a pipe channel defined through the flexible heat dissipation pipe and communicating with the inlet end and the outlet end; 
   a quick attachment collar mounted around the outlet end of the flexible heat dissipation pipe and having
 a through hole defined through the quick attachment collar; 
 a mounting ring formed on the quick attachment collar and mounted on the outlet end of the flexible heat dissipation pipe; and 
 a quick attachment ring formed on and protruding axially from the mounting ring and having an annular locking rib formed on and protruding radially outward from the quick attachment ring; 
   a quick release bushing mounted quick detachably on the quick attachment ring of the quick attachment collar and having
 a passageway defined through the quick release bushing; 
 a quick release tube formed on the quick release bushing, mounted detachably on the quick attachment ring of the quick attachment collar and having two resilient clamps formed oppositely on the quick release tube and detachably clamping the annular locking rib; and 
 a mounting tube formed on the quick release tube; and 
   an adapter panel connected to the quick release bushing and having a connection hole defined through the adapter panel and mounted around the mounting tube.   
     
     
         2 . The quick release heat dissipation pipe assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the quick attachment ring has a filter formed in the through hole and having multiple meshes. 
     
     
         3 . The quick release heat dissipation pipe assembly as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the mounting ring has an annular mounting groove defined in the mounting ring and receiving the outlet end of the flexible heat dissipation pipe. 
     
     
         4 . The quick release heat dissipation pipe assembly as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein each resilient clamp has
 a pull element formed on the resilient clamp; and   a hooking element formed on and protruding from the pull element and selectively hooking on the annular locking rib.   
     
     
         5 . The quick release heat dissipation pipe assembly as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the mounting tube has an annular mounting flange formed on a distal end of the mounting tube and having at least two resilient hooking elements formed on the annular mounting flange and hooking an annular inner mounting edge of the connection hole of the adapter panel.
