Descrizione Description
del brevetto per invenzione industriale avente per titolo: of the patent for industrial invention entitled:
“APPARECCHIO FRIGORIFERO CON UNA PLURALITÀ’ DI "REFRIGERATOR WITH A PLURALITY OF
SCOMPARTÌ” DISAPARTED "
La presente invenzione si riferisce ad un apparecchio frigorifero, in particolare di tipo domestico, comprendente almeno due scomparii per contenere e conservare prodotti alimentari a diverse temperature. The present invention relates to a refrigerator appliance, in particular of the domestic type, comprising at least two cabinets for containing and storing food products at different temperatures.
Sono comunemente noti apparecchi frigoriferi con uno scomparto di refrigerazione e uno scomparto di congelamento. Questi apparecchi sono dotati di due circuiti frigoriferi separati, uno per ciascuno scomparto, oppure di un unico circuito frigorifero comprendente due evaporatori selettivamente alimentabili tramite una valvola che devia il flusso del fluido refrigerante in modo da rispondere alle richieste di freddo nei due scomparii dell’apparecchio. La prima soluzione risulta evidentemente più costosa, data la duplicazione dei circuiti e quindi dei relativi componenti. La seconda soluzione offre invece un rendimento inferiore e un comportamento insoddisfacente dal punto di vista del rendimento. Refrigerating appliances with a refrigeration compartment and a freezing compartment are commonly known. These appliances are equipped with two separate refrigeration circuits, one for each compartment, or with a single refrigeration circuit comprising two evaporators which can be selectively fed through a valve that diverts the flow of the refrigerant fluid in order to respond to the requests for cold in the two disappearances of the appliance. . The first solution is obviously more expensive, given the duplication of the circuits and therefore of the related components. The second solution, on the other hand, offers a lower efficiency and an unsatisfactory behavior from the point of view of efficiency.
Il brevetto EP 0 246 465 descrive un circuito frigorifero per apparecchi frigoriferi domestici che comprende essenzialmente un compressore, un condensatore e due evaporatori in serie disposti rispettivamente in uno scomparto di conservazione e in uno scomparto di congelamento. Il compressore è di tipo rotativo, dotato di un’elevata coppia di spunto. Pertanto, per evitare che nei periodi di arresto del compressore le pressioni si equilibrino nell’intero circuito, si propone rinserimento di un’elettrovalvola a comando termostatico, che è provvista di un ingresso dal condensatore e di due uscite verso gli evaporatori. Le due uscite dell’ elettrovalvola possono essere entrambe chiuse quando il compressore è fermo e possono essere aperte selettivamente quando il compressore è in funzione. La soluzione descritta in questo brevetto si è dimostrata soltanto teorica, dato che un’elettrovalvola del genere è di difficile realizzazione e comporterebbe, comunque, un ulteriore consumo energetico per il suo azionamento. Patent EP 0 246 465 describes a refrigeration circuit for domestic refrigeration appliances which essentially comprises a compressor, a condenser and two evaporators in series arranged respectively in a storage compartment and in a freezing compartment. The compressor is of the rotary type, equipped with a high starting torque. Therefore, to prevent the pressures from balancing in the entire circuit during compressor shutdown periods, it is proposed to re-insert a thermostatically controlled solenoid valve, which is equipped with an input from the condenser and two outputs to the evaporators. The two solenoid valve outputs can both be closed when the compressor is stopped and can be selectively opened when the compressor is running. The solution described in this patent has proved to be only theoretical, given that such a solenoid valve is difficult to manufacture and would, however, involve additional energy consumption for its operation.
Il brevetto WO 00/49344, molto più recente, ripropone una soluzione analoga a quella del brevetto EP 0 246 465, ma senza definire il tipo di compressore e descrivendo una valvola soltanto in termini di funzionamento e non di costruzione. In particolare, quando gli evaporatori sono in serie (Fig. 4) non si può comprendere come la valvola 1 nella posizione S3 possa alimentare soltanto l’evaporatore 5B. In tale posizione, infatti, appare inevitabile che quasi tutto il fluido refrigerante passi anche nell’evaporatore 5A, alimentando cosi entrambi gli evaporatori. In effetti, la soluzione di questo brevetto rappresenta ancora un'ulteriore tentativo soltanto teorico di realizzazione di un apparecchio refrigerante per ottenere una riduzione di consumo energetico attraverso l’ottimizzazione del circuito frigorifero. The much more recent patent WO 00/49344 proposes a solution similar to that of the patent EP 0 246 465, but without defining the type of compressor and describing a valve only in terms of operation and not of construction. In particular, when the evaporators are in series (Fig. 4) it cannot be understood how valve 1 in position S3 can only power evaporator 5B. In this position, in fact, it appears inevitable that almost all the refrigerant fluid also passes into the evaporator 5A, thus feeding both evaporators. In fact, the solution of this patent represents yet another only theoretical attempt to create a refrigerating appliance to achieve a reduction in energy consumption through the optimization of the refrigeration circuit.
Tale scopo può essere, invece, raggiunto secondo la presente invenzione utilizzando la combinazione di un nuovo tipo di compressore a potenza (o capacità refrigerante) variabile e di una nuova soluzione valvolare, come definita nella rivendicazione di questo brevetto. Instead, this object can be achieved according to the present invention by using the combination of a new type of compressor with variable power (or refrigerating capacity) and a new valve solution, as defined in the claim of this patent.
Vantaggi e caratteristiche dell’invenzione risulteranno evidenti dalla descrizione che segue, a scopo esemplificativo e non limitativo, con riferimento agli allegati disegni, in cui: Advantages and features of the invention will become evident from the following description, by way of example and not of limitation, with reference to the attached drawings, in which:
- la Figura 1 rappresenta lo schema dello stato della tecnica più recente, secondo il brevetto WO 00/49344; Figure 1 represents the diagram of the most recent state of the art, according to the patent WO 00/49344;
- la Figura 2 rappresenta schematicamente in sezione un apparecchio frigorifero dotato di circuito refrigerante secondo l’invenzione; la Figura 3 rappresenta un diagramma che mostra il fabbisogno di frigorie in funzione delle variazioni di temperatura nello scomparto di refrigerazione e in quello di congelamento dall’ apparecchio di Fig.l. Come già detto, lo stato della tecnica più recente è rappresentato in Fig. 1, che mostra un circuito frigorifero con un compressore 2, un condensatore 3 e due evaporatori in serie 5a e 5b. Tra il condensatore 3 e gli evaporatori 5a e 5b è inserita una valvola I a tre vie. Nella posizione SI la valvola chiude il passaggio di fluido frigorifero verso entrambi gli evaporatori. Nella posizione S2 la valvola consente il passaggio del fluido frigorifero prima attraverso l'evaporatore 5a poi attraverso l’evaporatore 5b. Nella posizione S3, infine, la valvola dovrebbe chiudere il passaggio P2 verso l’evaporatore 5a e consentire il passaggio del fluido frigorifero soltanto attraverso l’evaporatore 5b. Quest’ultima situazione, però, non è comprensibile perché la valvola I. come mostrata, non può chiudere il passaggio P2. Inoltre, anche se un diverso tipo di valvola potesse realizzare tale condizione circuitale, il bilanciamento del circuito frigorifero non potrebbe risultare corretto, cosi come rappresentato, dato che i due evaporatori richiedono quantità di freddo notevolmente diverse. - Figure 2 schematically represents in section a refrigerating appliance equipped with a refrigerating circuit according to the invention; Figure 3 represents a diagram showing the need for refrigeration as a function of temperature variations in the refrigeration compartment and in the freezing compartment from the appliance of Fig.l. As already mentioned, the most recent state of the art is represented in Fig. 1, which shows a refrigeration circuit with a compressor 2, a condenser 3 and two evaporators in series 5a and 5b. A three-way valve I is inserted between the condenser 3 and the evaporators 5a and 5b. In the YES position, the valve closes the passage of refrigerant fluid towards both evaporators. In position S2, the valve allows the passage of the refrigerant first through the evaporator 5a then through the evaporator 5b. Finally, in position S3, the valve should close the passage P2 towards the evaporator 5a and allow the passage of the refrigerant fluid only through the evaporator 5b. The latter situation, however, is not understandable because valve I. as shown, cannot close the passage P2. Furthermore, even if a different type of valve could achieve this circuit condition, the balancing of the refrigerant circuit could not be correct, as shown, since the two evaporators require considerably different quantities of cold.
La soluzione secondo la presente invenzione è schematicamente rappresentata in Fig. 2, dove si mostra un apparecchio frigorifero comprendente uno scomparto di refrigerazione 10 e uno scomparto di congelamento 11, ciascuno dotato di un rispettivo evaporatore 12 e 13. I due evaporatori sono collegati in serie nel circuito frigorifero, che comprende anche un compressore 14 e un condensatore 15. Ciascun evaporatore, inoltre, è associato a un rispettivo restrittore, o tubo capillare, 16 e 17. The solution according to the present invention is schematically represented in Fig. 2, where a refrigerating appliance is shown comprising a refrigeration compartment 10 and a freezing compartment 11, each equipped with a respective evaporator 12 and 13. The two evaporators are connected in series in the refrigeration circuit, which also includes a compressor 14 and a condenser 15. Each evaporator is also associated with a respective restrictor, or capillary tube, 16 and 17.
Secondo l’invenzione, il compressore 14 è un compressore a potenza, o capacità frigorifera, variabile e la regolazione del flusso di fluido frigorifero nel circuito viene effettuata mediante mezzi valvolari inseriti tra il condensatore 15 e i capillari 16 e 17. Più precisamente, tali mezzi possono essere costituiti da una valvola unidirezionale 18 e da una valvola deviatricc 19, entrambe comandate da due termostati (non mostrati) disposti rispettivamente negli scomparii 10 e 1 1. La valvola 18 consente di aprire o chiudere il passaggio di fluido refrigerante agli evaporatori. La valvola 19 consente effettivamente di alimentare entrambi gli evaporatori in serie oppure il solo evaporatore 13 dello scomparto di congelamento. Naturalmente, le due valvole 18 e 19 potrebbero essere sostituite da una valvola a tre vie, nell'ipotesi che si riesca a realizzare una valvola di questo tipo di sicuro funzionamento e di ridotto consumo energetico. According to the invention, the compressor 14 is a compressor with variable power, or cooling capacity, and the regulation of the flow of refrigerant fluid in the circuit is carried out by means of valve means inserted between the condenser 15 and the capillaries 16 and 17. More precisely, these means they can consist of a one-way valve 18 and a diverter valve 19, both controlled by two thermostats (not shown) arranged respectively in the disappearances 10 and 1 1. The valve 18 allows to open or close the passage of refrigerant fluid to the evaporators. The valve 19 actually allows to supply both evaporators in series or just the evaporator 13 of the freezing compartment. Naturally, the two valves 18 and 19 could be replaced by a three-way valve, in the hypothesis that it is possible to produce a valve of this type with safe operation and reduced energy consumption.
Il corretto bilanciamento del circuito frigorifero si ottiene, poi. dimensionando opportunamente i capillari 16 e 17; in particolare, prevedendo per il capillare 16 una portata maggiore di quella del capillare 17. The correct balance of the refrigerant circuit is then obtained. appropriately dimensioning the capillaries 16 and 17; in particular, providing for the capillary 16 a greater flow rate than that of the capillary 17.
L’effettivo risparmio energetico, che è lo scopo principale della soluzione proposta, si ottiene quindi dalla combinazione di diversi elementi. The actual energy saving, which is the main purpose of the proposed solution, is therefore obtained from the combination of different elements.
Il principale elemento è costituito dall’utilizzo di un compressore 14 a potenza variabile, che è dotato di una propria autologica di controllo in grado di selezionare autonomamente la sua velocità (e quindi la potenza necessaria) sulla base di una combinazione( ad esempio, la media aritmetica) delle percentuali di lavoro dei due scomparii dell’apparecchio frigorifero e dei periodi di ON (o di funzionamento) dei medesimi scomparii, privilegiando quello che richiede il tempo di funzionamento più lungo. The main element is constituted by the use of a variable power compressor 14, which is equipped with its own autological control able to independently select its speed (and therefore the necessary power) on the basis of a combination (for example, the arithmetic mean) of the working percentages of the two disappearances of the refrigerator and of the ON periods (or of operation) of the same disappearances, favoring the one that requires the longest operating time.
In Fig. 3 è rappresentato un diagramma che mostra il fabbisogno di frigorie in funzione delle variazioni di temperatura nello scomparto di refrigerazione e in quello di congelamento (rispettivamente riportate in ascisse e in ordinate) di un tipico apparecchio frigorifero. Le lettere A-H indicano le fasce di funzionamento alle varie velocità del compressore (con A la velocità più bassa, con H la velocità più alta). I rettangoli rappresentano le arce di regolazione del’apparecchio a diverse temperature ambiente (Ta). L’algoritmo dell’ autologica di controllo del compressore 14 può essere, ad esempio, basato sui seguenti dati funzionali: Fig. 3 shows a diagram showing the need for refrigeration as a function of the temperature variations in the refrigeration and freezing compartments (respectively shown in abscissas and ordinates) of a typical refrigeration appliance. The letters A-H indicate the operating bands at the various compressor speeds (with A the lowest speed, with H the highest speed). The rectangles represent the adjustment areas of the appliance at different ambient temperatures (Ta). The algorithm of the autological control of compressor 14 can be, for example, based on the following functional data:
dove : where is it :
RT indica la percentuale di lavoro dell’apparecchio frigorifero, e ON indica il tempo di funzionamento del medesimo. RT indicates the percentage of work of the refrigerator appliance, and ON indicates the operating time of the same.
Un ulteriore elemento che consente di realizzare un effettivo risparmio energetico è costituito dall’impiego delle valvole 18 e 19, comandate ad impulsi. L’azionamento di tali valvole permette di chiudere il circuito nelle fasi di OFF dell’apparecchio frigorifero, impedendo un passaggio di fluido refrigerante caldo dal condensatore 15 verso gli evaporatori 12 e 13. Inoltre, la valvola 19 consente effettivamente di alimentare gli evaporatori in modo selettivo, secondo le richieste di freddo dei rispettivi scomparti dell’apparecchio. A further element that allows for effective energy savings is the use of valves 18 and 19, pulse-controlled. The actuation of these valves makes it possible to close the circuit in the OFF phases of the refrigeration appliance, preventing the passage of hot refrigerant fluid from the condenser 15 towards the evaporators 12 and 13. Furthermore, the valve 19 effectively allows the evaporators to be supplied in a selective, according to the cooling requirements of the respective compartments of the appliance.
Infine, la differenziazione delle portate dei capillari 16 e 17 aumenta la flessibilità del circuito refrigerante per fornire una potenza frigorifera che risponda al carico termico dell’apparecchio, sia rispetto all’utilizzo indipendente dei due scomparti, sia rispetto alle diverse condizioni degli stessi (temperatura ambiente, posizione dei termostati, apertura delle porte, ecc.). Finally, the differentiation of the flow rates of the capillaries 16 and 17 increases the flexibility of the refrigerant circuit to provide a cooling capacity that responds to the thermal load of the appliance, both with respect to the independent use of the two compartments, and with respect to the different conditions of the same (temperature environment, position of thermostats, door opening, etc.).
