The compressor/condenser assembly 50 draws refrigerant initially stored in a liquid receiver 56 through the refrigeration system 2 and back into the apparatus 10, re-circulating the refrigerant for a period sufficient so to effect flushing and cleaning of the system 2. Thus refrigerant initially held in the liquid receiver 56 acts as a flushing fluid, carrying debris and other contaminants from system 2 into the apparatus 10, where they are filtered from the refrigerant.
The refrigerant outlet assembly 60 is designed for interfacing with a refrigerant input of a refrigeration system 2 to be serviced. The refrigerant outlet assembly 60 is coupled to the compressor/condenser assembly 50 such that when the refrigerant inlet assembly 30 and the refrigerant outlet assembly 60 are coupled to the refrigeration system 2 being serviced a Sclosed system is established for the flow and conditioning of the refrigerant.
The refrigerant inlet assembly 30 further includes a high pressure liquid hose member 32, a first valve means in the form of a schreder valve 34, and a pressure gauge 36.
The high pressure liquid hose member 32 includes a first end and a second end. The first 20 end of the high pressure liquid hose member 32 is removably couplable to the refrigeration system 2 to be service. The high pressure liquid hose member 32 is for facilitating the flow of refrigerant from the refrigeration system 2 into the apparatus The schreder valve 34 is positioned on a face of a side wall 22 of the housing 20.

The filter member 44 is designed for removing particulate materials and other contaminants from the refrigerant.
The filter member 44 is coupled to the first hand valve 42.
20 The second hand valve 46 is positioned such that a handle portion of the second hand valve 46 extends from the bottom 26 of the housing 20. The second hand valve 46 can be closed to maintain a closed system when the filter member 44 is being replaced. The second hand valve 46 is normally left open during operation. The second hand valve 46 is coupled to the filter member 44.
The compressor/condenser 50 assembly further comprises a compressor 52, a condenser 53, a condenser fan 54, a liquid receiver 56, and a first 51 and second sight glass The compressor 52 is coupled to the filter assembly 40 such that refrigerant flowing from the filter assembly 40 flows into the compressor 52. The compressor 52 is for forcing the H:\mcamp\keep\retypc\P45952 Amended Pages Claims Daniels June 06.doc 16/06/06 -9refrigerant out of the apparatus 10 and re-circulating refrigerant through the refrigeration system 2 and the apparatus 10. The compressor 52 is positioned within the housing The condenser 53 is coupled to the compressor 52 such that refrigerant flowing from the compressor 52 flows into the condenser 53. The condenser 53 is designed for converting the refrigerant into a liquid. The condenser 53 is positioned within the housing The condenser fan 54 is positioned substantially within the housing 20. The housing has an opening adjacent to the condenser fan 54 for facilitating the flow of air over a surface of the condenser 53 for heat transfer.
The liquid receiver 56 is coupled to the condenser 53 such that refrigerant flowing from the condenser 53 flows into the liquid receiver 56. The liquid receiver 56 is a storage tank for the refrigerant. The liquid receiver 56 is positioned within the housing **The first sight glass 51 is operationally coupled between the filter assembly 40 and the compressor 52. The first sight glass 51 is for providing a visual indication (i.e.
visualisation) of refrigerant gas and liquid flow. The first sight glass 51 is positioned such that the first sight glass 51 is visible from the top wall 24 of the housing The second sight glass 55 is operationally coupled between the condenser 53 and the liquid receiver 56. The second sight glass 55 is for providing a visual indication (i.e.
visualisation) of refrigerant gas and liquid flow. The second sight glass 55 is positioned such that the second sight glass 55 is visible from the top wall 24 of the housing The refrigerant outlet assembly 60 further comprises a second high pressure liquid hose member 66, a second valve means in the form of schreder valve 64, and a third hand valve 63.
The second high pressure liquid hose member 66 includes a first end and a second end.
The first end of the second high pressure liquid hose member 66 is removably couplable to H:Vmcamp\kcp\etype\P45952 Amended Pages Claims Daniels June 06.doc 16/06/06 the refrigeration system 2 to be serviced. The second high pressure liquid hose member 66 is for facilitating the flow of refrigerant from the apparatus 10 back into the refrigeration system 2 to be serviced.
The second schreder valve 64 is positioned on a face of a side wall 22 of the housing The second scheder valve 64 is for maintaining a closed system when the second high pressure liquid hose member 66 is not connected to the second schreder valve 64 and for coupling the apparatus 10 to the refrigeration system 2 when the second end of the second high pressure liquid hose member 66 is coupled to the second schreder valve member 64.
The second schreder valve 64 is coupled to the compressor/condenser assembly The third hand valve 62 is coupled between the compressor/condenser assembly 50 and the second schreder valve 64. The third hand valve 62 has a valve portion and a handle actuation portion 63. The handle portion 63 extends from a side wall 22 of the housing for facilitating the opening and closing of the third hand valve 62. The valve portion is positioned substantially within the housing In an embodiment the second schreder valve 64 comprises a inch schreder valve.
20 The housing 20 includes a handle 28, which is positioned on the top wall 24 of the housing The handle 28 is for facilitating transportation of the apparatus In use, the high pressure liquid hose member 32 is coupled to the refrigerant outlet of the refrigeration system 2 to be serviced. The second high pressure liquid hose member 66 is connected to the refrigerant inlet of the refrigeration system to be serviced. The first and third hand valves are opened and the refrigerant conditioning system is powered on. The system is run until the refrigeration system 2 has been fully flushed and cleaned. The system is then powered down, the first and third hand valves are closed, and the two high pressure liquid hose members are disconnected from the refrigeration system.
In use, the apparatus 10 acts to flush and clean the internals of the refrigeration system 2.
H:\mcamp\keep\rtype\P45952 Amended Pages Claims Danils June 06 doc 1/06/06 1 Typically, the apparatus 10 will be used in relation to a refrigeration system 2 which had previously developed a leak and therefore is depleted of refrigerant. Prior to connection of the apparatus 10 with the system 2, the leak in system 2 will need repair. Once this is done, the apparatus 10 is connected and the refrigerant held within the liquid receiver 56 is circulated through the system 2. The refrigerant, as it passes through the internals of the system 2 collects debris and other contaminants which are then channeled through the filter 44 for separation from the refrigerant which is then compressed through compressor 52, and condensed back into a liquid through condenser 53. By monitoring of sight classes 51 and 55, as well as the pressure gauge 37, an operator can detect when the system 2 has been adequately flushed and cleaned. In this regard, when the refrigerant passing through sight glasses 51 and 55 is visually detected as having the same clarity, and the gauge 36 shows a vacuum then the apparatus 10 may be powered down and disconnected.
Now that an embodiment of the invention has been described in detail it will be apparent to those skilled in the relevant arts that numerous modifications and variations may be made 9 without departing from the basic inventive concepts. For example, valves 42, 46 and 64 are described as being hand valves. However, any one or all of these valves may be replaced by solenoid valves each having actuation portions in the form of switches disposed on the housing for operator actuation.
All such modifications and variations together with others that would be obvious to a person of ordinary skill in the art are deemed to be within the scope of the present invention the nature of which is to be determined from the above description and appended claims.
