Description

本発明は、空気調和機等の冷凍サイクルに装備される膨張弁に関する。   The present invention relates to an expansion valve provided in a refrigeration cycle such as an air conditioner.

この種の膨張弁は、例えばカーエアコンではエンジン室と車室とを仕切る隔壁に装備されることがあり、エアコン運転中の騒音低減が要求される。
下記の特許文献１は高圧の冷媒がオリフィスで減圧されてエバポレータへ向かう出口通路に絞り部材を備える膨張弁に開示している。 This type of expansion valve is sometimes installed in a partition wall that partitions an engine compartment and a vehicle compartment in a car air conditioner, for example, and noise reduction during operation of the air conditioner is required.
Patent Document 1 below discloses an expansion valve including a throttle member in an outlet passage where high-pressure refrigerant is decompressed by an orifice and heads toward an evaporator.

特開２０１１−２４５５４９号公報JP 2011-245549 A

エバポレータへ向かう出口通路に絞り部材を備えると、冷媒中の気泡が細分化され、気泡の破裂に起因する騒音の発生を低減することができる。
また、オリフィスで絞られた冷媒は出口通路で膨張するが、これを絞り部材でもう一度絞ることにより、乱流の発生を防止して消音することができる。これを、所謂「マフラー効果」と称す。
しかしながら、特許文献１の膨張弁は、同公報の図３に示すように、絞り部材の絞り穴の最下部が出口通路の最下部よりも上方に位置しているため、冷媒中に含まれる液冷媒がせき止められてスムーズに流れることができない。そのため、液冷媒とガス冷媒が分離して流速の変化が生じるため、乱流が生じて騒音が生じるという問題点がある。
本発明の目的は、オリフィスで減圧されてエバポレータへ向かう冷媒が通る出口通路に絞り部材を備えた膨張弁において、より消音効果を高めることにある。 If the throttle member is provided in the outlet passage toward the evaporator, the bubbles in the refrigerant are subdivided, and the generation of noise due to the bursting of the bubbles can be reduced.
In addition, the refrigerant squeezed by the orifice expands in the outlet passage, but by squeezing it again by the throttle member, the generation of turbulent flow can be prevented and the sound can be silenced. This is referred to as a so-called “muffler effect”.
However, as shown in FIG. 3 of the publication, the expansion valve of Patent Document 1 has a lowermost part of the throttle hole of the throttle member positioned above the lowermost part of the outlet passage. The refrigerant is blocked and cannot flow smoothly. For this reason, the liquid refrigerant and the gas refrigerant are separated to cause a change in flow velocity, which causes a problem that turbulence occurs and noise is generated.
An object of the present invention is to further enhance the silencing effect in an expansion valve provided with a throttle member in an outlet passage through which a refrigerant depressurized by an orifice and flows toward an evaporator passes.

上記目的を達成するために、本発明の膨張弁は、コンデンサで凝縮した高圧の冷媒を導入する入口通路、該入口通路に連通する弁室、該弁室内に導入される冷媒を減圧するオリフィス、該オリフィスの上方に設けられ前記オリフィスを通過した冷媒をエバポレータ側へ導出する出口通路及びエバポレータからコンプレッサへ戻る冷媒が通過する戻り通路を有する弁本体と、前記オリフィスを開閉する弁部材と、該弁部材を駆動する弁部材駆動装置とを備える膨張弁であって、前記出口通路におけるエバポレータ側の開口に装備される絞り部材を備え、該絞り部材の絞り穴の最下部は、前記出口通路の最下部の高さ位置と同じか又は下方に位置するものである。   In order to achieve the above object, an expansion valve of the present invention includes an inlet passage for introducing a high-pressure refrigerant condensed by a condenser, a valve chamber communicating with the inlet passage, an orifice for decompressing the refrigerant introduced into the valve chamber, A valve main body provided above the orifice and having an outlet passage through which the refrigerant having passed through the orifice is led out to the evaporator side and a return passage through which the refrigerant returning from the evaporator to the compressor passes; a valve member for opening and closing the orifice; and the valve An expansion valve including a valve member driving device for driving the member, the throttle valve being provided in an opening on the evaporator side in the outlet passage, and a lowermost portion of a throttle hole of the throttle member being a lowermost portion of the outlet passage. It is the same as or below the height position of the lower part.

本発明の膨張弁は、オリフィスを通過した冷媒に含まれる液冷媒が絞り部材でせき止められることなくスムーズに流れ、絞り部材の上部に沿って流れてくるガス冷媒と均一に混ざり合うため、冷媒に乱流が生じにくくなる。したがって、消音性能を向上することができる。   In the expansion valve of the present invention, the liquid refrigerant contained in the refrigerant that has passed through the orifice flows smoothly without being blocked by the throttle member, and is uniformly mixed with the gas refrigerant flowing along the upper portion of the throttle member. Turbulence is less likely to occur. Therefore, the silencing performance can be improved.

図１に示す第１実施例において、膨張弁１は弁本体１０を有し、弁本体１０の下部に形成した弁室２０にレシーバ側からの高圧の冷媒を導入する入口通路が紙面の手前側に紙面に垂直な方向に設けられている。   In the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the expansion valve 1 has a valve body 10, and an inlet passage for introducing high-pressure refrigerant from the receiver side into a valve chamber 20 formed in the lower part of the valve body 10 is on the front side of the page. Are provided in a direction perpendicular to the paper surface.

弁室２０の上部にはオリフィス５０が設けられ、その下端には弁座３２が形成されている。弁室２０内には、弁部材３０が弁座３２に対向して配設される。
弁部材３０は弁支持部材４０により支持され、弁支持部材４０と弁室２０の開口部に螺合されるプラグ４４との間にはコイルスプリング４２が設けられる。プラグ４４の弁室２０側にはシールリング４６が嵌装されて弁室２０のシールが達成される。
さらに、弁本体１０は、オリフィス５０を通過した冷媒をエバポレータ側へ導出する出口通路５２と、エバポレータからコンプレッサへ戻る冷媒が通過する戻り通路６０とを有する。 An orifice 50 is provided in the upper part of the valve chamber 20, and a valve seat 32 is formed in the lower end thereof. A valve member 30 is disposed in the valve chamber 20 so as to face the valve seat 32.
The valve member 30 is supported by a valve support member 40, and a coil spring 42 is provided between the valve support member 40 and a plug 44 that is screwed into the opening of the valve chamber 20. A seal ring 46 is fitted on the valve chamber 20 side of the plug 44 to achieve sealing of the valve chamber 20.
Furthermore, the valve body 10 has an outlet passage 52 that leads the refrigerant that has passed through the orifice 50 to the evaporator side, and a return passage 60 through which the refrigerant that returns from the evaporator to the compressor passes.

オリフィス５０を通過した冷媒は内径寸法が大きい出口通路５２に流出し、出口通路５２の内径寸法より大きな内径寸法を有する配管取付部５６に接続された配管(図示せず)を介してエバポレータ(図示せず)へ送り出される。エバポレータで外気との熱交換を行った低圧の冷媒は、弁本体１０の上部に設けた戻り通路６０に送り込まれ、紙面手前の垂直方向に形成された通路を介してコンプレッサ側へ戻される。戻り通路６０内の冷媒は、開口部６２を介して、弁本体１０の上端に装着されたパワーエレメント７０側へも送られる。   The refrigerant that has passed through the orifice 50 flows into the outlet passage 52 having a larger inner diameter, and is connected to an evaporator (not shown) via a pipe (not shown) connected to a pipe mounting portion 56 having an inner diameter larger than the inner diameter of the outlet passage 52. (Not shown). The low-pressure refrigerant that has exchanged heat with the outside air by the evaporator is fed into a return passage 60 provided in the upper part of the valve body 10 and is returned to the compressor side through a passage formed in the vertical direction in front of the page. The refrigerant in the return passage 60 is also sent to the power element 70 side attached to the upper end of the valve main body 10 through the opening 62.

パワーエレメント７０は、上蓋７２と下蓋７３の間にダイアフラム７４を挟み込んだ構造を有し、ダイアフラム７４の上下に上部圧力室７６と下部圧力室７８が形成されている。ダイアフラム７４の下面は受け部材８０で支持されている。受け部材８０は弁部材３０に当接する作動棒８２に接続されている。ダイアフラム７４の変位は作動棒８２を介して弁部材３０に伝達される。上部圧力室７６には、戻り通路６０内を通過する冷媒の温度に応じて膨張・収縮する作動ガスが封入されており、この作動ガスの体積変化がダイアフラム７４、受け部材８０及び作動棒８２を介して弁部材３０に伝達されることにより弁部材３０と弁座３２の間の弁開度が制御される。また、パワーエレメント７０は、カバー９０で覆われ、外気温度の影響がパワーエレメント７０の作動ガスに及ばないようされている。   The power element 70 has a structure in which a diaphragm 74 is sandwiched between an upper lid 72 and a lower lid 73, and an upper pressure chamber 76 and a lower pressure chamber 78 are formed above and below the diaphragm 74. The lower surface of the diaphragm 74 is supported by a receiving member 80. The receiving member 80 is connected to an actuating rod 82 that contacts the valve member 30. The displacement of the diaphragm 74 is transmitted to the valve member 30 via the operating rod 82. The upper pressure chamber 76 is filled with a working gas that expands and contracts in accordance with the temperature of the refrigerant passing through the return passage 60. The valve opening between the valve member 30 and the valve seat 32 is controlled by being transmitted to the valve member 30 through the valve member 30. The power element 70 is covered with a cover 90 so that the influence of the outside air temperature does not reach the working gas of the power element 70.

本発明の膨張弁１にあっては、弁本体１０に形成される出口通路５２のエバポレータ側の開口に絞り部材１００が装備される。
絞り部材１００は、例えば金属板をプレス加工して作製される円盤状の部材であって、絞り穴１１０を有する。本実施例にあっては、絞り穴１１０の形状は丸穴であるが、丸穴以外の形状を選択することもできる。 In the expansion valve 1 of the present invention, the throttle member 100 is provided in the evaporator-side opening of the outlet passage 52 formed in the valve body 10.
The drawing member 100 is a disk-shaped member made by, for example, pressing a metal plate, and has a drawing hole 110. In the present embodiment, the shape of the throttle hole 110 is a round hole, but a shape other than the round hole can be selected.

絞り部材１００は、配管取付部５６の最奥部に例えば圧入により取り付けられるが、他の取付手段を用いることもできる。   The throttle member 100 is attached to the innermost part of the pipe attachment portion 56 by, for example, press fitting, but other attachment means may be used.

この実施例に示す絞り部材１００にあっては、図１に示すように、絞り穴１１０の最下部１１４の位置が、出口通路５２の最下部５４の位置と一致する構成としている。なお、絞り穴１１０の最下部１１４の位置が出口通路５２の最下部５４の位置より低い位置となるように構成してもよい。
ここで出口通路５２の最下部５４とは、出口通路５２の最も低い部分を言い、オリフィス５０から出口通路５２に流出した液冷媒は、出口通路５２の最下部５４に沿って流れてエバポレータに流入する。 In the throttle member 100 shown in this embodiment, the position of the lowermost part 114 of the throttle hole 110 coincides with the position of the lowermost part 54 of the outlet passage 52 as shown in FIG. Note that the position of the lowermost portion 114 of the throttle hole 110 may be configured to be lower than the position of the lowermost portion 54 of the outlet passage 52.
Here, the lowermost portion 54 of the outlet passage 52 refers to the lowest portion of the outlet passage 52, and the liquid refrigerant that has flowed out of the orifice 50 into the outlet passage 52 flows along the lowermost portion 54 of the outlet passage 52 and flows into the evaporator. To do.

絞り部材１００の絞り穴１１０を丸穴とした場合の径寸法は、当然に出口通路５２の径寸法より小さな寸法を有する。そこで、絞り穴１１０の最下部１１４ｂを出口通路５２の最下部５４の位置に配設すると、絞り穴１１０の最上部１１２の位置は、出口通路５２の最上部５３よりもかなり低い位置となる。これにより、出口通路５２の出口側の上部には、絞り部材１００による塞き止め部５５が形成される。   Of course, the diameter of the throttle member 110 when the throttle hole 110 is a round hole is smaller than the diameter of the outlet passage 52. Therefore, when the lowermost portion 114 b of the throttle hole 110 is disposed at the position of the lowermost portion 54 of the outlet passage 52, the position of the uppermost portion 112 of the throttle hole 110 is considerably lower than the uppermost portion 53 of the outlet passage 52. As a result, a blocking portion 55 by the throttle member 100 is formed at the upper portion on the outlet side of the outlet passage 52.

弁室２０からオリフィス５０を通過した冷媒は、オリフィス５０の軸線に直交する軸線を有する径寸法の大きな出口通路５２へ流出する。
出口通路５２に流入する冷媒は、比重の重い液冷媒と比重の軽いガス冷媒とからなる。ガス冷媒は、図３に細い矢印で示すように、主として出口通路５２の上部に向けて噴出し、塞き止め部５５に接して塞き止め部５５の内面に沿って下方へ案内され、絞り穴１１０に流入する。比重の重い液冷媒は、図３に太い矢印で示すように、主として出口通路５２の下部に向けて噴出し、出口通路５２の最下部５４に沿って流れる。 The refrigerant that has passed through the orifice 50 from the valve chamber 20 flows out into the outlet passage 52 having a large diameter having an axis perpendicular to the axis of the orifice 50.
The refrigerant flowing into the outlet passage 52 includes a liquid refrigerant having a high specific gravity and a gas refrigerant having a low specific gravity. As indicated by thin arrows in FIG. 3, the gas refrigerant is mainly ejected toward the upper portion of the outlet passage 52, is in contact with the blocking portion 55, and is guided downward along the inner surface of the blocking portion 55. It flows into the hole 110. The liquid refrigerant having a high specific gravity is ejected mainly toward the lower portion of the outlet passage 52 and flows along the lowermost portion 54 of the outlet passage 52 as indicated by a thick arrow in FIG.

絞り部材１００の絞り穴１０２の最下部１１４は、出口通路５２の最下部５４と同じ高さ位置、または低い位置に設定されているので、出口通路５２の最下部５４に沿って流れる液冷媒はスムーズにエバポレータ側へ流出する。   The lowermost part 114 of the throttle hole 102 of the throttle member 100 is set at the same height or lower position as the lowermost part 54 of the outlet passage 52, so that the liquid refrigerant flowing along the lowermost part 54 of the outlet passage 52 is Smoothly flows out to the evaporator side.

このとき、液冷媒は、その上方から流れてくるガス冷媒と混合する。ガス冷媒は、塞き止め部５５に接して下方へ案内されることで、整流されて乱れが少なくなるため、液冷媒と均一に混合する。したがって、液冷媒とガス冷媒が分離することによる流速の変化が生じにくく、それに起因する騒音が低減する。   At this time, the liquid refrigerant is mixed with the gas refrigerant flowing from above. Since the gas refrigerant is guided downward in contact with the blocking portion 55 and is rectified to reduce turbulence, the gas refrigerant is uniformly mixed with the liquid refrigerant. Therefore, the change in the flow rate due to the separation of the liquid refrigerant and the gas refrigerant is unlikely to occur, and noise caused by the change is reduced.

本発明の膨張弁にあっては、小径のオリフィス５０を通過した冷媒は、大径の出口通路５２へ流出して膨張するが、さらに絞り部材１００の絞り穴１１０を通過することで、乱流の発生が防止されるので、より一層の消音が達成され、所謂「マフラー効果」を顕著に奏する。   In the expansion valve of the present invention, the refrigerant that has passed through the small-diameter orifice 50 flows out into the large-diameter outlet passage 52 and expands, but further passes through the throttle hole 110 of the throttle member 100, thereby causing turbulent flow. Is prevented, so that further silence is achieved and the so-called “muffler effect” is remarkably produced.

次に、図４に基いて本発明の第２実施例を説明する。なお、以下の各実施例において、第１実施例と同一の部分には同一の符号を用い、重複する説明は省略する。
本実施例の膨張弁１ａでは、絞り部材１００ａの絞り穴１１０ａの最下部１１４ａが出口通路５２の最下部５４よりも下方に位置している。
本実施例のその他の構成は第１実施例と同じである。 Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In the following embodiments, the same reference numerals are used for the same parts as those in the first embodiment, and duplicate descriptions are omitted.
In the expansion valve 1a of the present embodiment, the lowermost portion 114a of the throttle hole 110a of the throttle member 100a is positioned below the lowermost portion 54 of the outlet passage 52.
Other configurations of the present embodiment are the same as those of the first embodiment.

図５（ａ）に示すように、第１実施例では、出口通路５２の最下部５４の高さ位置が絞り穴１１０の最下部１１４の高さ位置と同じであり、出口通路５２の底部に沿って流れる液冷媒の流れが斜線で示す領域Ｒ１の部分で妨げられる。本実施例では、図５（ｂ）に示すように、この領域Ｒに対応する領域Ｒ２の大きさが小さくなるため、液冷媒がより流れ易くなる。したがって、液冷媒とガス冷媒がよりスムーズに混ざり合い、騒音がより低減する。 As shown in FIG. 5A, in the first embodiment, the height position of the lowermost portion 54 of the outlet passage 52 is the same as the height position of the lowermost portion 114 of the throttle hole 110, and is located at the bottom of the outlet passage 52. flow of the liquid refrigerant flowing along is prevented in a portion of the region R 1 indicated by hatching. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5 (b), since the size of the region R 2 corresponding to the region R is reduced, the liquid refrigerant becomes easier to flow. Accordingly, the liquid refrigerant and the gas refrigerant are mixed more smoothly, and noise is further reduced.

次に、図６に基いて本発明の第３実施例を説明する。
本実施例の膨張弁１ｂでは、絞り部材１００ｂの絞り穴１１０ｂの上縁部が略水平で、その他の縁部が円弧状の略三日月形状に形成されている。
本実施例のその他の構成は第１実施例と同じである。 Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
In the expansion valve 1b of the present embodiment, the upper edge of the throttle hole 110b of the throttle member 100b is substantially horizontal, and the other edge is formed in a substantially crescent shape having an arc shape.
Other configurations of the present embodiment are the same as those of the first embodiment.

液冷媒は出口通路５２の下側を流れるため、絞り穴１１０ｂの開口面積が第１実施例の絞り穴１１０の開口面積と同じであっても、液冷媒が第１実施例よりもせき止められにくく、流れ易くなる。したがって、液冷媒とガス冷媒がよりスムーズに混ざり合い、騒音がより低減する。   Since the liquid refrigerant flows below the outlet passage 52, even if the opening area of the throttle hole 110b is the same as the opening area of the throttle hole 110 of the first embodiment, the liquid refrigerant is less likely to be dammed than the first embodiment. , Easy to flow. Accordingly, the liquid refrigerant and the gas refrigerant are mixed more smoothly, and noise is further reduced.

図７は、本発明の第４の実施例を示す。
本実施例の膨張弁１ｃは、弁本体１０をパワーエレメント７０が左側に位置する向きに横向きに倒した姿勢で使用する実施例である。 FIG. 7 shows a fourth embodiment of the present invention.
The expansion valve 1c of the present embodiment is an embodiment in which the valve body 10 is used in a posture in which the valve body 10 is tilted sideways in the direction in which the power element 70 is located on the left side.

図８は、図７のＡ−Ａ断面を示し、絞り部材１００ｃの絞り穴１１０ｃは、作動棒８２の位置に対して下方に開口する。
絞り穴１１０ｃの最下部１１４ｃは、出口通路５２の最下部５４と同じ高さ位置に設定される。 FIG. 8 shows a cross section taken along the line AA in FIG. 7, and the throttle hole 110 c of the throttle member 100 c opens downward with respect to the position of the operating rod 82.
The lowermost portion 114 c of the throttle hole 110 c is set at the same height as the lowermost portion 54 of the outlet passage 52.

図９は、本発明の第５の実施例を示す。本実施例の膨張弁１ｄは、弁本体１０をパワーエレメント７０が右側に位置する向きに横向きに倒した姿勢で使用する実施例である。
絞り部材１００ｄの絞り穴１００ｄは、作動棒８２の位置に対して下方に開口し、絞り穴１００ｄの最下部１１４ｄは、出口通路の最下部と同じ高さ位置に設定される。 FIG. 9 shows a fifth embodiment of the present invention. The expansion valve 1d of the present embodiment is an embodiment in which the valve body 10 is used in a posture in which the valve body 10 is tilted sideways in the direction in which the power element 70 is positioned on the right side.
The throttle hole 100d of the throttle member 100d opens downward with respect to the position of the operating rod 82, and the lowermost part 114d of the throttle hole 100d is set at the same height as the lowermost part of the outlet passage.

なお、本発明は、上記第１〜第５実施例の構成に限定されるものではない。
例えば、絞り部材は樹脂成形品であってもよい。
その他にも、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲で上記実施例に種々の改変を施すことができる。 In addition, this invention is not limited to the structure of the said 1st-5th Example.
