Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an air conditioner.
  • FIG 8 is a diagram showing a control system for a conventional air conditioner disclosed in, for instance, JP-A-9-14805.
  • a serial connection of a protection circuit 42, a relay contact 36, and a compressor magnet (an excitation coil in an electromagnetic contactor for a compressor) 38 is connected across two lines (i.e., R-S in Figure 8) among three-phase a.c. power source lines (R, S, T) for supplying power to an air conditioner.
  • the protection circuit 42 includes an internal thermo-switch (bimetal) 24 provided for a blower, an internal thermo-switch (bimetal) 26 provided for a compressor, and a high-pressure switch 28, which are connected in series.
  • a photo-coupler 44 (such as a triac photo-coupler) 44, as an optical coupling device for transmitting signals, is connected in parallel to the relay contact 36 and the compressor magnet 38.
  • An abnormality detection signal generated from the photo-coupler 44 is supplied to a microcomputer 46.
  • the microcomputer 46 opens or closes the relay contact 36.
  • Figure 9 is a refrigerant circulation circuit for the air conditioner shown in JP-A-9-14805.
  • reference numeral 40 designates a compressor, numeral 18 an indoor side heat exchanger (in this case, a condenser), numeral 23 an outdoor side heat exchanger (in this case, an evaporator), numeral 25 a blower motor, numeral 29 a motor-driven expansion valve, numeral 30 a bypass valve, numeral 31 a motor-driven expansion valve, and numeral 32 a four-way valve.
  • the high-pressure switch 28 and the thermo-switches 24 and 26 are those shown in Figure 8.
  • the protection circuit as described above is operated as follows.
  • the thermo-switch 24 When the temperature of the blower motor shows an abnormal state, the thermo-switch 24 is opened.
  • the thermo-switch 26 When the temperature of the compressor motor shows an abnormal state, the thermo-switch 26 is opened.
  • an abnormally high pressure condition is generated in the compressor, the high-pressure switch 28 is opened.
  • the protection circuit 42 becomes an open state. Accordingly, electric current fed to the compressor magnet 38 is stopped, whereby the compressor ceases.
  • the photo-coupler 44 becomes an off state in the following four cases:
  • the period of instantaneous interruption is generally from several milliseconds to several hundred milliseconds at the longest. Accordingly, the photo-coupler 44 restores within 1 second after the instantaneous interruption.
  • a differential time such as "OFF at 30 kg/cm 2 and ON at 28.5 kg/cm 2 " is generally determined for the high-pressure switch 28. Therefore, even in a case that pressure in the compressor exceeds 30 kg/cm 2 whereby the compressor is stopped by an opening action of the high-pressure switch 28, the high-pressure switch is not immediately restored to a closing state.
  • the high-pressure switch 28 becomes a closing state when pressure in the compressor is decreased to 28.5 kg/cm 2 by operating the electromagnetic valve 30 ( Figure 9) to bypass a refrigerant in the refrigeration circulation circuit between its high and low pressure sides. In this case, the time needed for the restoration is several seconds.
  • thermo-switch 24 or 26 installed in the blower or the compressor in the case (3) or (4), when it once becomes an off state, it takes at least several tens of minutes to restore. Accordingly, it was necessary for the microcomputer 46, based on an abnormality detection signal from the photo-coupler 44, to specify the thermo-switch by utilizing a difference of restoration time among the switches 24, 26, 28.
