Abstract
Air condition for individual cooling/heating including a front compartment and a rear compartment separated by a partition plate made of an insulating material for forced inlet and outlet of external air therethrough respectively, at least two heat exchanger parts each in upper parts of the front and rear compartments and lower parts of front and rear compartments for making heat exchange with external air passing through the front compartment and the rear compartment respectively, first drawing means and second drawing means mounted in an upper portion or a lower portion of the front compartment or the rear compartment respectively for forced circulation of the external air through respective compartments, and driving means for driving the first and second drawing means, each of the heat exchanger parts includes thermoelectric modules each connected to a power source for absorbing heat at a heat absorptive part and discharging the heat from a heat dissipative part provided opposite to the heat absorptive part and heat exchangers each in contact either with the heat absorptive part or the heat dissipative part of the thermoelectric module for causing heat exchange between the air flowing into the front or rear compartment and the thermoelectric module, thereby providing individual cooling/heating to a user, and constant temperature dehumidification.
