Abstract

A refrigeration device (20) has an intermediate-pressure heat exchanger (40) and a gas-liquid separator (51). In cooling operation, that portion of refrigerant which is condensed in an outdoor heat exchanger (36) flows into injection piping (43). The pressure of the refrigerant flowed into the injection piping (43) is reduced to an intermediate pressure when the refrigerant passes an injection expansion valve (44), and then the refrigerant is supplied to an intermediate pressure port (32) of a compressor (31) after evaporating at the intermediate- pressure heat exchanger (40). In heating operation, the pressure of the refrigerant condensed at an indoor heat exchanger (71) is reduced to an intermediate pressure when the refrigerant passes an indoor expansion valve (72), and then the refrigerant flows into the gas-liquid separator (51). The intermediate-pressure gas refrigerant in the gas-liquid separator (51) is supplied to the intermediate pressure port (32) of the compressor (31).

[0041]-the running action-
In described air conditioner 10, cooling operation and warming operation are switched.
[0042]<cooling operation 〉
On one side with reference to Fig. 1 (A), on one side running action during to cooling operation describe.In the refrigerant loop 20 when cooling operation, outdoor heat converter 36 becomes condenser, and indoor heat converter 71 becomes evaporimeter, and cold-producing medium circulates.Just, in refrigerant loop 20, cool off action.
[0043] specifically, when at cooling operation, four-way change-over valve 35 is set to first state.Also have, outdoor expansion valve 37 is set at full-gear, injects and is suitably regulated respectively with the aperture of expansion valve 44 and indoor expansion valve 72, and magnetic valve 53 cuts out simultaneously.
[0044] high-pressure gaseous refrigerant from compressor 31 ejections condenses to the outdoor air heat release at outdoor heat converter 36.High pressure liquid refrigerant cold-producing medium heat release in second stream 42 the process of first stream 41 that passes through intermediate pressure heat exchanger 40 from outdoor heat converter 36 outflows.The part of the high pressure liquid refrigerant that flows out from first stream 41 of middle pressure heat exchanger 40 flows into flow in pipes 43, and rest parts is assigned to each indoor loop 70 by hydraulic fluid side connecting pipe 21.
[0045] in each indoor loop 70, the high pressure liquid refrigerant that is flowed into is decompression by indoor expansion valve 72 time, thereafter in indoor heat converter 71 from the room air heat absorption and evaporate.Vaporized cold-producing medium is inhaled into compressor 31 by gas side connecting pipe 22 return chamber's external loops 30 after by reservoir 38 in indoor heat converter 71.
[0046] on the other hand, the high pressure liquid refrigerant that flows into flow in pipes 43 is being depressurized to the intermediate pressure refrigerant that intermediate pressure becomes the gas-liquid two-phase state when injecting with expansion valve 44.This intermediate pressure refrigerant cold-producing medium from first stream 41 in the process of second stream 42 of the intermediate pressure heat exchanger 40 of flowing through absorbs heat and evaporates.The intermediate pressure gaseous refrigerant that flows out from second stream 42 of middle pressure heat exchanger 40 is sent to the intermediate pressure port 32 of compressor 31.
[0047] compressor 31 sucks discharge chambe by reservoir 38 with low pressure refrigerant and compresses.Also have, the intermediate pressure gaseous refrigerant that flows into from middle pressure port 32 is imported into the discharge chambe that is in the compression process.And compressor 31 sprays after the cold-producing medium in the discharge chambe is compressed into high pressure.
[0048] so, in cooling operation, the high pressure liquid refrigerant that makes the supercooling degree increase that is cooled during by intermediate pressure heat exchanger 40 is sent to indoor loop 70 by hydraulic fluid side connecting pipe 21.Thus, even the length in hydraulic fluid side connecting pipe 21 is set at the position that exceeds certain altitude than outdoor loop 30 above certain-length or indoor loop 70, and in case the liquid refrigerant that is sent to hydraulic fluid side connecting pipe 21 from outdoor loop 30 will occur before arriving indoor loop 70 under the situation of high pressure liquid refrigerant part evaporation during for saturation state, the high-pressure refrigerant that also can guarantee to flow into indoor loop 70 is the single-phase state of liquid.Also have, if with the liquid refrigerant that is admitted to hydraulic fluid side connecting pipe 21 from outdoor loop 30 is that the situation of saturation state is compared, even the part of high pressure liquid refrigerant evaporation before arriving indoor loop 70, the amount of the high pressure liquid refrigerant that this evaporated is also less relatively.
[0049]<warming operation 〉
On one side with reference to Fig. 1 (B), on one side running action during to warming operation describe.In the refrigerant loop 20 when being in warming operation, indoor heat converter 71 becomes condenser, and outdoor heat converter 36 becomes evaporimeter, and cold-producing medium circulates.Just, in refrigerant loop 20, heat action.
[0050] specifically, when at warming operation, four-way change-over valve 35 is set to second state.Also have, the aperture of outdoor expansion valve 37 and indoor expansion valve 72 is suitably regulated respectively, injects to be set to full-shut position with expansion valve 44, and magnetic valve 53 is opened simultaneously.
[0051] high-pressure gaseous refrigerant from compressor 31 ejections is assigned to each indoor loop 70 by gas side connecting pipe 22.In the indoor heat converter 71 in each indoor loop 70, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant condenses to the room air heat release.In each indoor loop 70, the intermediate pressure refrigerant of the cold-producing medium that flows out from indoor heat converter 71 decompression by indoor expansion valve 72 time becoming gas-liquid two-phase state.Pass through hydraulic fluid side connecting pipe 21 and return chamber's external loop 30 from the intermediate pressure refrigerant that flow out in each indoor loop 70, and flowing into gas-liquid separators 51 by by-pass line 50 backs.
[0052] liquid refrigerant in the intermediate pressure refrigerant that gas-liquid separator 51 flows into accumulates in the bottom of gas-liquid separator 51, and the gaseous refrigerant in this intermediate pressure refrigerant accumulates in the top of gas-liquid separator 51.Intermediate pressure liquid refrigerant in the gas-liquid separator 51 by-pass line 50 of flowing through once more, and decompression by outdoor expansion valve 37 time are imported into outdoor heat converter 36 then.In outdoor heat converter 36, cold-producing medium evaporates from the outdoor air heat absorption.Vaporized cold-producing medium is inhaled into compressor 31 after by reservoir 38 in outdoor heat converter 36.On the other hand, the intermediate pressure gaseous refrigerant in the gas-liquid separator 51 is successively by being imported into the intermediate pressure port 32 of compressor 31 behind intermediate-pressure gas pipeline 52 and the flow in pipes 43.
[0053] compressor 31 sucks discharge chambe by reservoir 38 with low pressure refrigerant and compresses.Also have, the intermediate pressure gaseous refrigerant that flows into from middle pressure port 32 is imported into the discharge chambe that is in the compression process.And compressor 31 sprays after the cold-producing medium in the discharge chambe is compressed into high pressure.
[0054] so, in warming operation, will be by hydraulic fluid side connecting pipe 21 cold-producing medium of return chamber's external loop 30 be separated into liquid refrigerant and gaseous refrigerant after importing gas-liquid separator 51, only the gaseous refrigerants in the gas-liquid separator 51 are fed to the intermediate pressure port 32 of compressor 31.Just, even when flowing into the cold-producing medium in outdoor loop 30 and being the gas-liquid two-phase state, also can only gaseous refrigerant positively be fed to the intermediate pressure port 32 of compressor 31.Thus, even the length in hydraulic fluid side connecting pipe 21 is configured in the position that exceeds certain altitude than indoor loop 70 above certain-length or outdoor loop 30, and arrive under the vaporized situation of a part of cold-producing medium before the outdoor loop 30, the cold-producing medium that also can guarantee to flow into the intermediate pressure port 32 of compressor 31 is the single-phase state of gas.
[0055]-effect of embodiment one-

[0056] at this, as described shown in the air conditioner 10, when a plurality of indoor loops 70 are connected in parallel with each other, in order suitably to regulate the refrigerating capacity of each indoor units 12, the aperture of indoor expansion valve 72 that can be by each indoor loop 70 of indivedual controls comes the allocation proportion of the cold-producing medium of distributing to indoor loop 70 is regulated.Yet, in case when the cold-producing medium by indoor expansion valve 72 is the gas-liquid two-phase state, makes the discharge characteristic of indoor expansion valve 72 become unstable, thereby might suitably control the allocation proportion of the cold-producing medium of distributing to each indoor loop 70.Relative therewith, in the air conditioner 10 of present embodiment, when being in cooling operation, can easily make the cold-producing medium that flows into indoor loop 70 keep liquid condition.Therefore, according to present embodiment, in air conditioner 10, can suitably control the refrigerating capacity of each indoor units 12 with a plurality of indoor units 12.
[0057] also has, in the heating action of described air conditioner 10, to be separated into liquid refrigerant and gaseous refrigerant from the cold-producing medium that indoor loop 70 turns back to outdoor loop 30 with gas-liquid separator 51, only the intermediate pressure gaseous refrigerant be offered compressor 31 from gas-liquid separator 51.Thus, even extremely long or outdoor loop 30 is configured in the position higher than indoor loop 70 in the length of the hydraulic fluid side connecting pipe 21 in junction chamber external loop 30 and indoor loop 70, and under the situation that is provided with that the pressure of cold-producing medium reduces significantly in the process of hydraulic fluid side connecting pipe 21 of flowing through, also can only gaseous refrigerant positively be fed to the intermediate pressure port 32 of compressor 31.Consequently can avoid owing to intermediate pressure liquid refrigerant flows into the problem appearance that compressor 31 causes compressor 31 to be damaged.
[0058] so, according to present embodiment, no matter air conditioner 10 is provided with under which kind of state, in cooling operation and these two kinds of runnings of warming operation air conditioner 10 is turned round smoothly.
