The liquid refrigerant that has flowed into the first evaporator (cooler) 29 and the second evaporator (cooler) 30 evaporates there and cools the surrounding air. The gas refrigerant evaporated in the first evaporator (cooler) 29 flows into the suction side of the compressor 24 and is compressed.

上記の冷却貯蔵庫1において、電動式膨張弁71は、制御回路装置(図示せず)からの制御信号によって正転と逆転の動作をするステッピングモータによって、駆動弁が動作してその弁開度が調節されるものであり、蒸発器(冷却器)29の出口温度又は冷凍室5の温度に応じて前記制御回路装置に設定したデータに基づき、ステッピングモータが正転又は逆転して駆動弁が動作してその弁開度が調節され、適正な冷媒膨張が行われるように制御される。また、電動式膨張弁72は、制御信号によって正転と逆転の動作をするステッピングモータによって、駆動弁が動作してその弁開度が調節されるものであり、蒸発器(冷却器)30の入口、出口温度に応じて制御回路装置(図示せず)に設定したデータに基づき、ステッピングモータが正転又は逆転して駆動弁が動作してその弁開度が調節され、適正な冷媒膨張が行われるように制御される。   In the cooling storage 1 described above, the electric expansion valve 71 is driven by a stepping motor that performs forward rotation and reverse rotation according to a control signal from a control circuit device (not shown), and the valve opening degree thereof is increased. Based on the data set in the control circuit device in accordance with the outlet temperature of the evaporator (cooler) 29 or the temperature of the freezer 5, the stepping motor rotates forward or reverse to operate the drive valve. Then, the valve opening is adjusted, and control is performed so that proper refrigerant expansion is performed. In addition, the electric expansion valve 72 is a valve in which the drive valve is operated and the opening degree of the evaporator (cooler) 30 is adjusted by a stepping motor that performs forward rotation and reverse rotation according to a control signal.

この冷却貯蔵庫1の冷却運転を説明する。この冷却貯蔵庫1では、冷却運転は、冷凍室5の温度によって開始される。冷凍室5の温度が所定の上限設定温度に上昇すると、前記制御回路装置は冷却運転を開始する。この開始時に、前記制御回路装置は、冷蔵室3の温度を検知し、この冷蔵室3の温度が所定の上限設定温度を超えている場合は、冷蔵室3の冷却を冷凍室5の冷却より先に行い、この冷蔵室3の温度が所定の上限設定温度を超えていない場合は、冷凍室5の冷却を行う。ここで、冷蔵室3の温度が所定の上限設定温度を超えているとする。したがって、前記制御回路装置は、まず冷蔵室3の冷却を行う。制御回路装置は、圧縮機24を運転(ON)し、電動式膨張弁72を前回の冷蔵室冷却時の開度まで開け、第2送風機32を運転(ON)する。そして、冷蔵室3が所定の下限設定温度まで低下すると、冷蔵室3の冷却から冷凍室5の冷却に切り替わる。前記制御回路装置は、この時の電動式膨張弁72の開度の値を格納すると共に、電動式膨張弁72を全閉し、第2送風機32を停止(OFF)し、電動式膨張弁71を前回の冷凍室冷却時の開度まで開け、第1送風機31を運転(ON)する。これにより、冷凍室5が冷却される。冷凍室5が所定の下限設定温度まで低下すると、冷凍運転を終了する。制御回路装置は、この時の電動式膨張弁71の開度の値を格納すると共に、電動式膨張弁71を全閉し、第1送風機31を停止(OFF)し、圧縮機24を停止(OFF)する。   The cooling operation of the cooling storage 1 will be described. In the cooling storage 1, the cooling operation is started by the temperature of the freezer compartment 5.

At the start, the control circuit device detects the temperature of the refrigerator compartment 3, and when the temperature of the refrigerator compartment 3 exceeds a predetermined upper limit set temperature, the refrigerator compartment 3 is cooled by the cooling of the freezer compartment 5. First, if the temperature of the refrigerator compartment 3 does not exceed a predetermined upper limit set temperature, the freezer compartment 5 is cooled. Here, it is assumed that the temperature of the refrigerator compartment 3 exceeds a predetermined upper limit set temperature. Therefore, the control circuit device first cools the refrigerator compartment 3. The control circuit device operates (ON) the compressor 24, opens the electric expansion valve 72 to the opening at the time of cooling the previous refrigerator compartment, and operates (ON) the second blower 32. And if the refrigerator compartment 3 falls to predetermined | prescribed lower limit setting temperature, it will switch from cooling of the refrigerator compartment 3 to cooling of the freezer compartment 5.

Is opened to the opening at the time of the previous freezer cooling, and the first blower 31 is operated (ON). Thereby, the freezer compartment 5 is cooled. When the freezer compartment 5 is lowered to a predetermined lower limit set temperature, the freezing operation is terminated. The control circuit device stores the value of the opening degree of the electric expansion valve 71 at this time, fully closes the electric expansion valve 71, stops the first blower 31 (OFF), and stops the compressor 24 ( OFF).
