Rotatable exhausting structure of a portable air conditioner

摘要

A rotatable exhausting structure of a portable air conditioner has a housing and a connecting tube. The housing has through hole, and multiple holders and a resilient stop separately arranged around the through hole. The connecting tube has a flange formed on and around an outer surface of the connecting tube and held between the holders and the resilient stop of the housing, and is used to be connected to an exhausting pipe. Thus, the connecting tube is rotatable relative to the housing. When torque is caused in the exhausting pipe due to redirecting it, the connecting tube rotates accordingly. The exhausting pipe is not bent or twisted and keeps in good condition.
