Description of the Related Art Some condensers used in a refrigerating cycle of an air conditioner for a vehicle include, for example, one of a pair of header pipes as shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 4-131667. A liquid receiving part for storing a liquid-phase refrigerant condensed and liquefied by cooling is provided in addition to provide a function as a liquid tank, and a desiccant is arranged in a form that partitions the inside of the liquid receiving part into upper and lower parts. Liquid phase refrigerant flowing down through the desiccant to absorb moisture,
As disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 4-43271, there is known a method in which a pack-type desiccant is rolled into a cylindrical shape and inserted into a liquid receiving portion provided alongside a header pipe.
【0003】[0003]
【発明が解決しようとする課題】従来の前者の構造では
乾燥剤の冷媒通過面積が小さいため、液相冷媒の流通性
が悪くなって冷房性能の低下につながってしまう。In the former former structure, since the refrigerant passage area of the desiccant is small, the flowability of the liquid-phase refrigerant deteriorates, leading to a decrease in the cooling performance.

車幅方向寸法が制約されており、従って、ヘッダパイプ
を大径化すると1対のヘッダパイプ間の冷却コア幅が狭
められて凝縮器の冷却効率が低下して、この場合も冷房
性能の低下につながってしまう。In order to increase the refrigerant passage area of the desiccant, the diameter of the header pipe may be increased. However, since the condenser is disposed on the front side of the engine room at the front of the vehicle body, the dimension in the vehicle width direction is reduced. Therefore, when the diameter of the header pipe is increased, the width of the cooling core between the pair of header pipes is reduced, and the cooling efficiency of the condenser is reduced. In this case, too, the cooling performance is reduced.

ック式乾燥剤の中心部分を通過する液相冷媒の水分を吸
収することができないため、冷凍サイクル内の残留水分
を完全に除去できず冷房性能の低下につながる。Further, in the latter structure, since the water content of the liquid-phase refrigerant passing through the central portion of the cylindrically-shaped packed desiccant cannot be absorbed, the residual water in the refrigeration cycle cannot be completely removed. This leads to a decrease in cooling performance.

凝縮器を提供するものである。Accordingly, the present invention can increase the refrigerant passage area of the desiccant without increasing the diameter of the header pipe, improve the flowability of the liquid-phase refrigerant, and dry all of the liquid-phase refrigerant. An object of the present invention is to provide a condenser capable of improving the performance of removing moisture by passing the same through an agent.

している。According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a digital camera comprising:
In a condenser, a plurality of cooling pipes are connected in a multi-stage manner in a vertical direction across a pair of header pipes, and a liquid receiving part for storing a liquid-phase refrigerant condensed and liquefied by cooling is provided in one of the header pipes. A partition plate is provided on the lower side of the liquid receiving portion to partition the inside of the liquid receiving portion into upper and lower two chambers, and a desiccant is passed through the upper end cover and the partition plate into the liquid receiving portion.

器の下側部から仕切板下側の下部室へ流出、貯留され
る。According to the structure of the first aspect, the liquid-phase refrigerant flowing from one header pipe through the refrigerant passage into the liquid receiving portion falls into the upper chamber separated by the partition plate without resistance. After flowing into the desiccant container on the way down, or falling to the partition plate, and then flowing into the desiccant container, the liquid phase refrigerant passes through the desiccant layer to remove moisture, and then the desiccant is removed. It flows out from the lower part of the container to the lower chamber below the partition plate and is stored.
【0009】このようにヘッダパイプから受液部に流入

冷房性能を高めることができる。In addition, since the liquid-phase refrigerant drops from the header pipe to the upper chamber of the liquid receiving portion without resistance, and flows from the upper chamber into a cylindrical desiccant container having a large surface area, the flow resistance is low. It is suppressed and the flowability of the liquid phase refrigerant is improved,
Cooling performance can be improved.

It is characterized by being screwed into a screw hole provided in the lid.

In addition, the serviceability is good, and a dedicated part for mounting can be eliminated, which is advantageous in cost.

通性が良好となり、冷房性能を高めることができる。The liquid-phase refrigerant drops from the header pipe 3 to the upper chamber 7A of the liquid receiving section 7 without resistance.
Since A flows through the cylindrical desiccant container 10 having a large surface area, the flow resistance is suppressed to be small, the flowability of the liquid-phase refrigerant is improved, and the cooling performance can be improved.

的にも有利となる。On the other hand, separately from such an effect on the cooling performance, the desiccant container 10 has the screw portion 16 of the head portion 15 screwed into the screw hole 18 provided in the upper end cover 9 of the liquid receiving portion 7. The direct attachment makes it easy to attach and detach the desiccant 11 at the time of replacement, improving serviceability, and eliminating the need for special parts for attachment, which is advantageous in terms of cost.

【発明の効果】以上、本発明によれば次に述べる効果を
奏せられる。As described above, according to the present invention, the following effects can be obtained.
【0034】請求項1によれば、一方のヘッダパイプか
ら受液部に流入する液相冷媒を、上部室内で全て乾燥剤
容器内に流入させ、乾燥剤層を通過させた後に下部室に
流出、貯留させるようにしてあるから、水分の除去性能
を高めることができる。According to the first aspect, all of the liquid-phase refrigerant flowing from one header pipe into the liquid receiving section flows into the desiccant container in the upper chamber, and flows into the lower chamber after passing through the desiccant layer. Since it is stored, the performance of removing water can be enhanced.
【0035】また、ヘッダパイプから受液部の上部室に
液相冷媒が無抵抗で落下することと、上部室からは表面
積の大きな筒状の乾燥剤容器内を流通するため、流通抵
抗が小さく抑えられて液相冷媒の流通性が良好となり、
前述の水分除去性能を高められることと相俟って冷房性
能を高めることができる。Further, since the liquid-phase refrigerant drops from the header pipe into the upper chamber of the liquid receiving portion without resistance, and flows from the upper chamber through a cylindrical desiccant container having a large surface area, the flow resistance is small. It is suppressed and the flowability of the liquid phase refrigerant is improved,
Cooling performance can be enhanced in combination with the above-described ability to remove moisture.
【0036】請求項2によれば、乾燥剤容器はヘッド部

ンを図ることもできる。According to the second aspect, the desiccant container is directly attached by screwing the screw portion of the head portion into the screw hole of the end cover on the upper side of the liquid receiving portion. The work is easy, the serviceability can be improved, and a dedicated part for mounting can be eliminated, so that the cost can be reduced.
