Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090133435Refrigerating Air-Conditioning Apparatus - A refrigerating air-conditioning apparatus, at least provided with no possibility that a foreign material returns to a compressor from an accumulator at a time of the pipeline-cleaning operation firstly, and provided with a possibility to perform a collecting operation for the foreign material in a short time secondary, is provided.05-28-2009
20090145151AIR CONDITIONER - An air conditioner including an outdoor unit, indoor units, and a relay device for connection between the outdoor unit and each of the indoor units. The outdoor unit includes an outdoor heat exchanger, a compressor for pressurizing a refrigerant of or including carbon dioxide, and a first switching member for switching flow direction of the refrigerant through the outdoor heat exchanger. Each of the indoor units includes an indoor heat exchanger and first flow controller in fluid communication between first and second pipe connection ports. The relay device includes second switching members, each of the second switching members selectively connecting the first pipe connection port of a respective indoor unit with the first or second connection end of the outdoor unit.06-11-2009
20090158761REFRIGERATOR AND AIR CONDITIONER - A refrigerator has a coolant cooler for cooling a coolant at the entrance of a flow control valve, when the cooling amount in the coolant cooler is deficient as well as excessive. The refrigerator includes a compressor for compressing the coolant, a radiator for radiating heat from the coolant, a coolant cooler for cooling the coolant, a flow control valve for regulating the flow volume of the coolant, an evaporator for evaporating the coolant, and a heat-exchange-amount control for controlling the amount of heat exchanged in the coolant cooler. The coolant is circulated through the compressor, the radiator, the coolant cooler, the flow control valve, and the evaporator, in that sequence.06-25-2009
20090301698HEAT EXCHANGER OF PLATE FIN AND TUBE TYPE - A heat exchanger including plate fins stacked at respective intervals relative to one another, and heat exchanger tubes penetrating the fins in. The heat exchanger exchanges heat between first and second fluids flowing, respectively, inside and outside the heat exchanger tubes. Each of the fins includes a substantially planar main body and cut-raised portions extending from the main body and disposed at an upstream side of flow of the second fluid. Each of the cut-raised portions corresponds to a respective heat exchanger tube and includes first and second opposed side ends connected to the main body of the fin. The first side end is nearer to the corresponding heat exchanger tube than is the second side end, the first side end is longer than the second side end, and the first side end is disposed at a downstream side of the flow of the second fluid, facing the corresponding heat exchanger tube.12-10-2009
20100152903REFRIGERATING CYCLE APPARATUS AND OPERATION CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR - In a refrigerating cycle apparatus and control method thereof, a controller sets a high-pressure pressure target value from thermal load and temperature conditions based on refrigerant information that has been obtained from detectors, and controls at least one of a rotational frequency of a compressor, a degree of opening of an electronic expansion valve, a rotational frequency of an outdoor fan, or a rotational frequency of an indoor fan to match a high-pressure pressure to the high-pressure pressure target value that has been set. Here, a threshold value is set when the high-pressure pressure target value is set, and a method for setting the high-pressure pressure target value is modified depending on whether the high-pressure pressure is greater than or equal to the threshold value or less than the threshold value when the high-pressure pressure target value is decided.06-17-2010
20100162749HEAT EXCHANGER AND REFRIGERATING AIR CONDITIONER - A heat exchanger includes a first flat tube in which a low temperature fluid flows and a second flat tube in which a high temperature fluid flows and that is laminated on the first flat tube and arranged so that the flow direction of the high temperature fluid is parallel to the flow direction of the low temperature fluid. One of the first and second flat tubes is arranged in the direction of lamination. Ends of the flat tubes are bent in a direction intersecting at right angles both flow directions of the fluids and the direction of lamination.07-01-2010
20110083456REFRIGERATION CYCLE DEVICE AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME - A refrigeration cycle device 04-14-2011
20110088421AIR CONDITIONING APPARATUS - A heat source-side refrigerant circuit A including a compressor 04-21-2011
20110113802AIR CONDITIONER - A multi-chamber air conditioner including a heat-source side refrigerant circuit in which a compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger, a first heat exchanger, a refrigerant flow-rate controller, and a second heat exchanger are connected in series, a first use-side refrigerant circuit in which the first heat exchanger and an indoor heat exchanger are connected in series, and a second use-side refrigerant circuit in which the second heat exchanger and the indoor heat exchanger are connected in series, and a heat-source side refrigerant circulating in the heat-source side refrigerant circuit and a use-side refrigerant circulating in the use-side refrigerant circuit are heat-exchanged in the first heat exchanger. The heat-source side refrigerant circulating in the heat-source side refrigerant circuit and the use-side refrigerant circulating in the use-side refrigerant circuit are heat-exchanged in the second heat exchanger.05-19-2011
20110120579FOUR-WAY VALVE - In a four-way valve having a simple structure, even if a high-temperature refrigerant and a low-temperature refrigerant flow close to each other, heat loss between both refrigerants is suppressed. The valve comprises a housing member including a valve chamber, a valve seat including a bearing surface portion located in the valve chamber, a first channel through which a high-temperature fluid flows and a second channel through which a low-temperature fluid flows at a predetermined time, including openings adjacent to each other at a bearing surface portion of the valve seat, passing through the valve seat and extending outside of the valve chamber, and a valve element moving to the bearing surface portion of the valve seat. A thermal resistor portion suppressing heat transfer between these channels is located near the openings, between the first and second channels.05-26-2011
