| 20110100032 | Apparatus and Method for Removing a Gas from a System, System for Vaporizing and Heat Pump - An apparatus for removing a first gas from a system including a second different gas, includes a collecting basin for collecting the first gas, wherein the collecting basin includes a variable inlet opening for letting in the first gas into the collecting basin, wherein the inlet opening can be brought into communication with the system, and a variable outlet opening for letting out the first gas from the collecting basin, wherein the variable outlet opening is not in communication with the system, and a generator for generating a pressure within the collecting basin, which is higher than the pressure of an atmosphere outside the variable outlet opening, wherein the inlet opening and the outlet opening are implemented such that in a discharge mode at a pressure within the collecting basin which is higher than the pressure in the atmosphere, the inlet opening has a higher fluid resistance than the outlet opening, such that the second gas can be output from the collecting basin via the outlet opening, and that in a collecting mode the outlet opening has a higher fluid resistance than the inlet opening. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20110100054 | Liquefier for a Heat Pump, Heat Pump, and Method for Manufacturing a Liquefier - A liquefier for a heat pump includes a liquefier space, a compressor motor and a motor fixture for holding the stationary motor part, wherein the motor further has a motor shaft and a compressor wheel connected to the motor shaft. The motor fixture is formed so that the stationary motor part is held so that it is in contact with liquefied working fluid when liquefied working fluid is filled in the liquefier space. Furthermore, the compressor wheel extends into a region of the heat pump in which a channel for gaseous working fluid to be compressed passes. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20110107787 | Vertically Arranged Heat Pump and Method of Manufacturing the Vertically Arranged Heat Pump - In a heat pump with an evaporator and a liquefier as well as a gas region extending between the evaporator and the liquefier, the liquefier is arranged above the evaporator in a setup direction for operation of the heat pump. | 05-12-2011 |
| 20110107789 | Liquefier for a Heat Pump and Heat Pump - A liquefier for a heat pump includes a liquefier space and a process water tank. The process water tank is arranged within the liquefier space such that it is substantially surrounded by liquefied working fluid. A wall of the process water tank, however, is spaced from a wall of the process water tank so that a gap formed to communicate with the region of the heat pump in which compressed gas is present is obtained, so that the process water tank is thermally insulated from the space for liquefied working fluid via this gas-filled gap. The liquefier itself may also be surrounded by the gas region, in order to provide for inexpensive insulation of the liquefier. | 05-12-2011 |
| 20110146316 | Device and Method for an Efficient Surface Evaporation and for an Efficient Condensation - An evaporator or a condenser includes a surface on which the operating liquid is arranged. Further, turbulence generators are provided to generate turbulences in the operating liquid located on the operating surface. In the condenser, alternatively or additionally, a laminarizer is present to make the vapor stream laminar provided by the compressor. On the evaporator side, the evaporation efficiency is increased and, on the condenser side, the condenser efficiency is increased, which may be used for a substantial reduction in size without loss of power of these components, in particular for a heat pump for heating a building. | 06-23-2011 |
