In operation, when the refrigeration system is in a refrigeration mode, one medium enters the second channel 111 and one medium enters the first channel 21; when the heating mode needs to be switched, the driving piece 31 drives the first wheel 32 to rotate, drives the rotary tube 20 to rotate, and the rotary tube 20 rotates to the third interface 14 against the inner wall of the valve body 10, so that the first channel 21 is communicated with the third interface 14, and the second channel 111 is communicated with the second interface 13, and the reversing is realized. In the reversing process, the end face of one end of the rotating pipe 20 is attached to the inner wall of the valve body 10, so that the problem of blowby between the first channel 21 and the second channel 111 is relieved, and the medium in the second channel 111 circulates around the circumference of the rotating pipe 20, so that the circumferential stress of the rotating pipe 20 is consistent, and the resistance applied to the rotating pipe 20 during rotation can be saved.
The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined, and all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described for brevity of description, however, as long as there is no contradiction between the combinations of the technical features, they should be considered as the scope of the description.
The above examples illustrate only a few embodiments of the invention, which are described in detail and are not to be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. It should be noted that it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that several variations and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention, which are all within the scope of the invention. Accordingly, the scope of protection of the present invention is to be determined by the appended claims.
