Abstract: A cooling and/or heating system is provided that may include an air conditioning and heat pump assembly (refrigerant-based) housed within an enclosure. Ducts are provided to deliver air cooled by the air conditioning unit or air heated by the heat pump to one or more users positioned in the enclosure. A reversing valve is provided for directing the flow of pressurized refrigerant to one of the condenser and evaporator. When operated in heating mode, the refrigerant flow is reversed by the reversing valve and heated air is delivered through the same duct work. The air conditioning and/or heat pump assembly is controlled by a vending module to be operated by a user. The system is particularly well suited to include the sale of secondary retail and information services and items at populated public locations, e.g., a beach, city street and parks, and at other venues, e.g., theme parks, golf courses, concerts, ski slopes or other sports venues or indoor facilities such as subway stations, adult night clubs, college bars or airports.

Abstract translation: 提供的冷却和/或加热系统可以包括容纳在外壳内的空调和热泵组件（基于制冷剂）。 提供管道以将由空调单元冷却的空气或由热泵加热的空气输送到位于外壳中的一个或多个用户。 提供了一个换向阀，用于将加压制冷剂的流动引导到冷凝器和蒸发器之一。 当在加热模式下操作时，制冷剂流通过换向阀反向，并且加热的空气通过相同的管道工作输送。 空调和/或热泵组件由用户操作的售货模块控制。 该系统特别适合于在人口稠密的公共场所（例如海滩，城市街道和公园）以及其他场所，如主题公园，高尔夫球场，音乐会，滑雪场等零售和信息服务和物品销售。 或其他运动场所或室内设施，如地铁站，成人夜总会，大学酒吧或机场。
