Description

本発明は自動販売機、特に、缶、ビン、パック、ペットボトル等の容器に入れた飲料等の商品を冷却または加熱して販売に供する自動販売機に関する。   The present invention relates to a vending machine, and more particularly to a vending machine that cools or heats a product such as a beverage in a container such as a can, a bottle, a pack, or a plastic bottle for sale.

従来、自動販売機は、冷媒を圧縮する圧縮機と、圧縮された冷媒(高温高圧)を凝縮させる庫外凝縮器と、凝縮された冷媒(中温高圧)を膨張させる膨張手段と、膨張した冷媒(低温低圧)を蒸発させる庫内熱交換器(蒸発器に同じ)と、これらを順次連結して蒸発した冷媒(中温低圧)を圧縮機に戻す冷凍サイクルを有し、商品を収納する各商品収納庫内に庫内蒸発器を設置して、商品を冷却していた。
また、庫内熱交換器に高圧高温冷媒(ホットガスに同じ)を流して、温熱を放出させて(凝縮器と機能させて)商品収納庫内を加熱する「ヒートポンプ運転」を実行する発明が開示されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。
Conventionally, a vending machine includes a compressor that compresses a refrigerant, an external condenser that condenses the compressed refrigerant (high temperature and high pressure), an expansion means that expands the condensed refrigerant (medium temperature and high pressure), and the expanded refrigerant. Each product that stores products with an internal heat exchanger that evaporates (low temperature and low pressure) (same as the evaporator) and a refrigeration cycle that connects these components in sequence to return the evaporated refrigerant (medium temperature and low pressure) to the compressor An in-compartment evaporator was installed in the storage to cool the product.
Also, an invention for performing a “heat pump operation” in which a high-pressure high-temperature refrigerant (same as hot gas) is allowed to flow through the internal heat exchanger to release the heat (function as a condenser) to heat the inside of the product storage. It is disclosed (for example, see Patent Document 1).

特開2002−298210号公報(第3−4頁、図1)JP 2002-298210 A (page 3-4, FIG. 1)

しかしながら、前記特許文献1に開示された発明は、加熱しようとする商品収納庫(庫内熱交換器)に高温高圧冷媒を供給し、これを通過した冷媒を膨張して、冷却しようとする商品収納庫(庫内熱交換器)に低温低圧冷媒を供給するものであるため、以下のような問題があった。
すなわち、加熱しようとする商品収納庫の数(庫内熱交換器の負荷に同じ)が、冷却しようとする商品収納庫の数(庫内熱交換器の負担に同じ)よりも大きい場合、冷却しようとする商品収納庫に十分に冷熱が放出されない(低温低圧冷媒が十分な温熱を吸収しないに同じ)ため、液状態の冷媒が圧縮機に戻ることがあった。そうすると、圧縮機の吐出冷媒温度が低下し、加熱能力が低下することになる。さらに、加熱能力の低下を補おうとすると、圧縮機の運転時間が延長され、消費電力が増加していた。
However, the invention disclosed in Patent Document 1 supplies a high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant to a product storage (internal storage heat exchanger) to be heated, expands the refrigerant that has passed through this, and then intends to cool the product. Since the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant is supplied to the storage (the internal heat exchanger), there are the following problems.
That is, if the number of product storage boxes to be heated (same as the load on the internal heat exchanger) is larger than the number of product storage boxes to be cooled (same as the load on the internal heat exchanger), cooling Since the cold energy is not sufficiently released to the commodity storage to be attempted (same as the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant does not absorb sufficient heat), the liquid refrigerant may return to the compressor. If it does so, the discharge refrigerant | coolant temperature of a compressor will fall and a heating capability will fall. Furthermore, if it was going to compensate for the fall of a heating capability, the operation time of the compressor was extended and the power consumption increased.

本発明は上記問題を解決するものであって、特別の加熱手段を設置することなく、圧縮機に戻る直前の冷媒を加熱することができる自動販売機を提供することを目的とする。   This invention solves the said problem, Comprising: It aims at providing the vending machine which can heat the refrigerant | coolant just before returning to a compressor, without installing a special heating means.

(全室冷却運転モード)
図4の(a)において、自動販売機1000が全室冷却運転モード(CCC運転モード)を実行する際の冷媒の流れは、圧縮機1によって圧縮された高温高圧冷媒が、配管12(電磁弁12vが開き、電磁弁15Lv、15Mvが閉じている)を経由してガスクーラ2に流入し、全室冷却用膨張手段3Cにおいて膨張して低温低圧冷媒となって、左室熱交換器5L、中室熱交換器5Mおよび右室熱交換器5Rに流入する(電磁弁45Lv、45Mv、45Rvが開いている)。よって、左室40L、中室40Mおよび右室40Rが、冷却される。
そして、中温低圧冷媒は配管56に流れ込み、開いている電磁弁67vを通過してアキュムレータ7に流入する。
このとき、電磁弁15Lv、15Mvが閉じ、逆止弁58Ln、58Mnが設置されているから、高温高圧冷媒や中温高圧冷媒が庫外熱交換器8や加熱用膨張手段3Hに流入することがない。また、電磁弁27v、62vが閉じているから、高温高圧冷媒や中温高圧冷媒がアキュムレータ7に流入することがない。
(All rooms cooling operation mode)
In FIG. 4A, when the vending machine 1000 executes the all-chamber cooling operation mode (CCC operation mode), the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant compressed by the compressor 1 is connected to the pipe 12 (solenoid valve). 12v is opened and solenoid valves 15Lv and 15Mv are closed), and flows into the gas cooler 2 and expands in the all-chamber expansion means 3C to become a low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant. It flows into the chamber heat exchanger 5M and the right chamber heat exchanger 5R (the electromagnetic valves 45Lv, 45Mv, and 45Rv are open). Therefore, the left chamber 40L, the middle chamber 40M, and the right chamber 40R are cooled.
Then, the medium temperature and low pressure refrigerant flows into the pipe 56, passes through the open electromagnetic valve 67v, and flows into the accumulator 7.
At this time, since the solenoid valves 15Lv and 15Mv are closed and the check valves 58Ln and 58Mn are installed, the high-temperature high-pressure refrigerant or the medium-temperature high-pressure refrigerant does not flow into the external heat exchanger 8 or the heating expansion means 3H. . Further, since the solenoid valves 27v and 62v are closed, the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant and the medium-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant do not flow into the accumulator 7.

(2室加熱運転モード)
図4の(b)において、自動販売機1000が2室加熱運転モード(HHC運転モード)を実行する際の冷媒の流れは、圧縮機1によって圧縮された高温高圧冷媒が、配管15L、15M(電磁弁12vが閉じ、電磁弁15Lv、15Mvが開いて)を経由して、左室熱交換器5Lおよび中室熱交換器5Mに流入する。
その後、庫外熱交換器8および加熱用膨張手段3Hを経由して分岐点4に到達し、分岐点4において分岐されて配管45R(電磁弁45Rvが開き、電磁弁45Lv、45Mvが閉じている)を経由して右室熱交換器5Rに流入する。そして、配管57Cに流入した冷媒(中温低圧冷媒)は、分岐点6において分岐され分岐管62に流入し、ガスクーラ2を経由した後、アキュムレータ7に供給される。
(Two-chamber heating operation mode)
In FIG. 4B, when the vending machine 1000 executes the two-chamber heating operation mode (HHC operation mode), the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant compressed by the compressor 1 is connected to the pipes 15L and 15M ( The electromagnetic valve 12v is closed and the electromagnetic valves 15Lv and 15Mv are opened), and flows into the left chamber heat exchanger 5L and the middle chamber heat exchanger 5M.
After that, it reaches the branch point 4 via the external heat exchanger 8 and the heating expansion means 3H, branches at the branch point 4, and the pipe 45R (the electromagnetic valve 45Rv is opened and the electromagnetic valves 45Lv and 45Mv are closed). ) To the right ventricular heat exchanger 5R. Then, the refrigerant (medium-temperature low-pressure refrigerant) that has flowed into the pipe 57 </ b> C is branched at the branch point 6, flows into the branch pipe 62, passes through the gas cooler 2, and is then supplied to the accumulator 7.

そうすると、庫外熱交換器8とガスクーラ2との間で熱交換可能であるため、ガスクーラ2に流入した中温低圧冷媒は、庫外熱交換器8を通過する中温高圧冷媒が保有する温熱を受け取って温度が上昇し、さらに、アキュムレータ7において気液が分離され、気相状態で圧縮機1に吸引される。よって、圧縮機1の吐出温度が上昇し、左室40Lおよび中室40Mの加熱が確実になる。
このとき、電磁弁67vが閉じて電磁弁62vおよび電磁弁27vが開いているから、中温低圧冷媒がアキュムレータ7に直接流入することがない。また、電磁弁12vが閉じているから、高温高圧冷媒がガスクーラ2やアキュムレータ7に流入することがなく、電磁弁23Cvが閉じているから、低温低圧冷媒がガスクーラ2やアキュムレータ7に流入することがない。
Then, since heat exchange is possible between the external heat exchanger 8 and the gas cooler 2, the medium temperature and low pressure refrigerant flowing into the gas cooler 2 receives the heat held by the medium temperature and high pressure refrigerant passing through the external heat exchanger 8. Then, the temperature rises, and the gas-liquid is separated in the accumulator 7 and sucked into the compressor 1 in a gas phase state. Therefore, the discharge temperature of the compressor 1 rises, and heating of the left chamber 40L and the middle chamber 40M is ensured.
At this time, since the solenoid valve 67v is closed and the solenoid valve 62v and the solenoid valve 27v are open, the medium temperature and low pressure refrigerant does not flow directly into the accumulator 7. Moreover, since the solenoid valve 12v is closed, the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant does not flow into the gas cooler 2 and the accumulator 7, and since the solenoid valve 23Cv is closed, the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant can flow into the gas cooler 2 and the accumulator 7. Absent.

(ガスクーラおよび庫外熱交換器)
図5において、ガスクーラ2は複数枚のガスクーラ放熱板2aとガスクーラ放熱板2aを千鳥状に貫通するガスクーラ伝熱管2bとを具備し、庫外熱交換器8は複数枚の庫外放熱板8aと、庫外放熱板8aを千鳥状に貫通する庫外伝熱管8bとを具備している。このとき、ガスクーラ放熱板2aと庫外放熱板8aとは一体的に形成されて共通のフィンを呈し、かかる共通のフィンは、庫外ファン481が形成する吸込空気の風路内に配置されている。
また、ガスクーラ伝熱管2bの上側の端部には配管12が、下側の端部には配管23C(配管62に同じ)が、それぞれ接続されている。また、庫外伝熱管8bの上側の端部には配管58が、下側の端部には配管83Hが、それぞれ接続されている。したがって、前記HHC運転モードにおいて、庫外熱交換器8に流入した中温高圧冷媒の保有する温熱は、大気中に放出されると共に、共通のフィンを伝わってガスクーラ伝熱管2bに伝達され、これを通過する中温低圧冷媒に受け渡される。
なお、以上は、ガスクーラ2を通過した中温高圧冷媒が供給される全室冷却用膨張手段3Cと、左室熱交換器5Lまたは中室熱交換器5Mの一方または両方を通過した中温高圧冷媒が供給される加熱用膨張手段3Hと、が配置されているが、共通の膨張手段(例えば、電子膨張弁)にして、かかる膨張手段の直前において配管23Cと配管83Hとを統合してもよい。
(Gas cooler and external heat exchanger)
In FIG. 5, the gas cooler 2 includes a plurality of gas cooler heat radiating plates 2a and gas cooler heat transfer tubes 2b penetrating the gas cooler heat radiating plates 2a, and the external heat exchanger 8 includes a plurality of external heat radiating plates 8a. And the outside heat exchanger tube 8b which penetrates the outside heat sink 8a in a zigzag pattern. At this time, the gas cooler heat radiating plate 2a and the external heat radiating plate 8a are integrally formed to present a common fin, and the common fin is disposed in the air passage of the intake air formed by the external fan 481. Yes.
Further, the pipe 12 is connected to the upper end of the gas cooler heat transfer tube 2b, and the pipe 23C (same as the pipe 62) is connected to the lower end. A pipe 58 is connected to the upper end of the external heat transfer tube 8b, and a pipe 83H is connected to the lower end. Therefore, in the HHC operation mode, the heat held by the medium-temperature high-pressure refrigerant flowing into the external heat exchanger 8 is released into the atmosphere and is transmitted to the gas cooler heat transfer tube 2b through the common fin. Passed to the passing medium temperature and low pressure refrigerant.
In the above, the medium-temperature high-pressure refrigerant that has passed through one or both of the expansion chamber 3C for cooling the whole chamber supplied with the medium-temperature high-pressure refrigerant that has passed through the gas cooler 2, and the left-chamber heat exchanger 5L or the middle-chamber heat exchanger 5M. The heating expansion means 3H to be supplied is disposed, but the pipe 23C and the pipe 83H may be integrated immediately before the expansion means by using a common expansion means (for example, an electronic expansion valve).

(1室加熱運転モード)
自動販売機1000が1室加熱運転モード(HCC運転モードまたはCHC運転モード)を実行する際の冷媒の流れは、前記2室加熱運転モード(HHC運転モード)における左室熱交換器5Lまたは中室熱交換器5Mの一方のみに高温高圧冷媒を供給し、左室熱交換器5Lまたは中室熱交換器5Mの他方のみに低温低圧冷媒を供給するものであるから、前記2室加熱運転モードにおける電磁弁の開閉操作によって実行されるから、説明を省略する。
そして、庫外熱交換器8とガスクーラ2との間で熱交換可能であるため、ガスクーラ2に流入した中温低圧冷媒は、庫外熱交換器8を通過する中温高圧冷媒が保有する温熱を受け取って温度が上昇し、さらに、アキュムレータ7において気液が分離され、気相状態で圧縮機1に吸引される。よって、圧縮機1の吐出温度が上昇し、左室40Lまたは中室40Mの一方の加熱が確実になる。
(One-chamber heating operation mode)
The refrigerant flow when the vending machine 1000 executes the one-chamber heating operation mode (HCC operation mode or CHC operation mode) is the same as that of the left chamber heat exchanger 5L or the middle chamber in the two-chamber heating operation mode (HHC operation mode). The high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant is supplied to only one of the heat exchangers 5M, and the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant is supplied only to the other of the left chamber heat exchanger 5L or the middle chamber heat exchanger 5M. The description is omitted because it is executed by opening and closing the solenoid valve.
And since heat exchange is possible between the external heat exchanger 8 and the gas cooler 2, the medium temperature and low pressure refrigerant flowing into the gas cooler 2 receives the heat held by the medium temperature and high pressure refrigerant passing through the external heat exchanger 8. Then, the temperature rises, and the gas-liquid is separated in the accumulator 7 and sucked into the compressor 1 in a gas phase state. Therefore, the discharge temperature of the compressor 1 rises, and heating of one of the left chamber 40L or the middle chamber 40M is ensured.

[実施の形態2]

すなわち、実施の形態1における冷凍回路1000sでは、戻りバイパス配管系において中温低圧冷媒がガスクーラ2に選択的に供給されたのに対し、実施の形態2における冷凍回路2000sでは、中温低圧冷媒が戻り熱交換器9を経由した後、圧縮機1に吸引される。なお、ガスクーラ2と庫外熱交換器8と戻り熱交換器9とは、互いに熱交換可能になっている。
[Embodiment 2]
(vending machine)
6 to 8 illustrate a vending machine according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. FIG. 6 is a configuration diagram of a refrigeration circuit installed in the vending machine, and FIG. 7 is a refrigeration showing how refrigerant flows. FIG. 8 is a side view schematically showing a part (gas cooler, external heat exchanger and return heat exchanger). In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to this, and the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to Embodiment 1 in FIG. Yes.
In FIG. 6, the refrigeration circuit 2000s of the vending machine 2000 (not shown) has a heat exchanger 9 that is returned to the pipe 56 through which the medium-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant flows.
That is, the pipe 57 is connected to a branch pipe 69 communicating with the inlet side of the return heat exchanger 9 at the branch point (not accurately branched) 6, and the outlet side of the return heat exchanger 9 and the accumulator 7 are connected to each other. They are connected by a junction tube 97.
That is, in the refrigeration circuit 1000s in the first embodiment, the medium temperature and low pressure refrigerant is selectively supplied to the gas cooler 2 in the return bypass piping system, whereas in the refrigeration circuit 2000s in the second embodiment, the medium temperature and low pressure refrigerant returns to the return heat. After passing through the exchanger 9, it is sucked into the compressor 1. The gas cooler 2, the external heat exchanger 8, and the return heat exchanger 9 can exchange heat with each other.

(全室冷却運転モード)
図7の(a)において、自動販売機2000が全室冷却運転モード(CCC運転モード)を実行する際の冷媒の流れは、圧縮機1によって圧縮された高温高圧冷媒が、配管12(電磁弁12vが開き、電磁弁15Lv、15Mvが閉じている)を経由してガスクーラ2に流入し、全室冷却用膨張手段3Cにおいて膨張して低温低圧冷媒となって、左室熱交換器5L、中室熱交換器5Mおよび右室熱交換器5Rに流入する(電磁弁45Lv、45Mv、45Rvが開いている)。よって、左室40L、中室40Mおよび右室40Rが、冷却される。
そして、中温低圧冷媒は配管57に流れ込み、分岐管69を経由して戻り熱交換器9に流入し、さらに、アキュムレータ7を経由して圧縮機1に吸引される。
(All rooms cooling operation mode)
In FIG. 7A, when the vending machine 2000 executes the all-chamber cooling operation mode (CCC operation mode), the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant compressed by the compressor 1 is connected to the pipe 12 (solenoid valve). 12v is opened and solenoid valves 15Lv and 15Mv are closed), and flows into the gas cooler 2 and expands in the all-chamber expansion means 3C to become a low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant. It flows into the chamber heat exchanger 5M and the right chamber heat exchanger 5R (the electromagnetic valves 45Lv, 45Mv, and 45Rv are open). Therefore, the left chamber 40L, the middle chamber 40M, and the right chamber 40R are cooled.
Then, the medium-temperature low-pressure refrigerant flows into the pipe 57, returns to the return heat exchanger 9 via the branch pipe 69, and further sucked into the compressor 1 via the accumulator 7.

したがって、ガスクーラ2と戻り熱交換器9とは互いに熱交換可能になっているから、ガスクーラ2に流入した高温高圧冷媒と、戻り熱交換器9に流入した中温低圧冷媒との間で熱交換される。すなわち、前者の温度は低下し、後者の温度は上昇するから、より過冷却状態(サブクール)において冷媒を膨張したり、より過熱状態(スーパーヒート)において冷媒を圧縮したりすることになるため、圧縮機1の負荷を増すことなく、低温低圧冷媒の最低温度をより低くしたり、高温高圧冷媒の最高温度をより高くしたりすることができる。   Accordingly, since the gas cooler 2 and the return heat exchanger 9 can exchange heat with each other, heat is exchanged between the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant flowing into the gas cooler 2 and the medium-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant flowing into the return heat exchanger 9. The That is, the former temperature decreases and the latter temperature rises, so that the refrigerant expands in a more supercooled state (subcool) or compresses the refrigerant in a more superheated state (superheat). Without increasing the load on the compressor 1, it is possible to lower the minimum temperature of the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant or to increase the maximum temperature of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant.

(2室加熱運転モード)
図7の(b)において、自動販売機2000が2室加熱運転モード(HHC運転モード)を実行する際の冷媒の流れは、圧縮機1によって圧縮された高温高圧冷媒が、配管15L、15M(電磁弁12vが閉じ、電磁弁15Lv、15Mvが開いて)を経由して、左室熱交換器5Lおよび中室熱交換器5Mに流入する。
その後、庫外熱交換器8および加熱用膨張手段3Hを経由して分岐点4に到達し、分岐点4において分岐されて配管45R(電磁弁45Rvが開き、電磁弁45Lv、45Mvが閉じている)を経由して右室熱交換器5Rに流入する。そして、配管57Cに流入した冷媒(中温低圧冷媒)は、分岐管69に流入して戻り熱交換器9を経由した後、アキュムレータ7に供給される。
(Two-chamber heating operation mode)
In FIG. 7B, when the vending machine 2000 executes the two-chamber heating operation mode (HHC operation mode), the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant compressed by the compressor 1 is connected to the pipes 15L and 15M ( The electromagnetic valve 12v is closed and the electromagnetic valves 15Lv and 15Mv are opened), and flows into the left chamber heat exchanger 5L and the middle chamber heat exchanger 5M.
After that, it reaches the branch point 4 via the external heat exchanger 8 and the heating expansion means 3H, branches at the branch point 4, and the pipe 45R (the electromagnetic valve 45Rv is opened and the electromagnetic valves 45Lv and 45Mv are closed). ) To the right ventricular heat exchanger 5R. Then, the refrigerant (medium-temperature low-pressure refrigerant) that has flowed into the pipe 57 </ b> C flows into the branch pipe 69, returns to the heat exchanger 9, and is then supplied to the accumulator 7.

そうすると、庫外熱交換器8と戻り熱交換器9との間で熱交換可能であるため、戻り熱交換器9に流入した中温低圧冷媒は、庫外熱交換器8を通過する中温高圧冷媒が保有する温熱を受け取って温度が上昇し、さらに、アキュムレータ7において気液が分離され、気相状態で圧縮機1に吸引される。したがって、前者の温度は低下し、後者の温度は上昇するから、より過冷却状態(サブクール)において冷媒を膨張したり、より過熱状態(スーパーヒート)において冷媒を圧縮したりすることになるため、圧縮機1の負荷を増すことなく、低温低圧冷媒の最低温度をより低くしたり、高温高圧冷媒の最高温度をより高くしたりすることができる。よって、圧縮機1の吐出温度が上昇し、左室40Lおよび中室40Mの加熱が確実になる。
このとき、電磁弁12vが閉じているから、高温高圧冷媒がガスクーラ2やアキュムレータ7に流入することがなく、電磁弁23Cvが閉じているから、低温低圧冷媒がガスクーラ2やアキュムレータ7に流入することがない。
Then, since heat exchange is possible between the external heat exchanger 8 and the return heat exchanger 9, the medium temperature and low pressure refrigerant that has flowed into the return heat exchanger 9 passes through the external heat exchanger 8. The temperature rises upon receiving the warm heat held by the gas, and further, the gas-liquid is separated in the accumulator 7 and sucked into the compressor 1 in a gas phase state. Therefore, the former temperature decreases and the latter temperature rises. Therefore, the refrigerant is expanded in a supercooled state (subcool) or compressed in a superheated state (superheat). Without increasing the load on the compressor 1, it is possible to lower the minimum temperature of the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant or to increase the maximum temperature of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant. Therefore, the discharge temperature of the compressor 1 rises, and heating of the left chamber 40L and the middle chamber 40M is ensured.
At this time, since the solenoid valve 12v is closed, the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant does not flow into the gas cooler 2 and the accumulator 7, and since the solenoid valve 23Cv is closed, the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant flows into the gas cooler 2 and the accumulator 7. There is no.

In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to this, and the same code | symbol is attached to this 1st Embodiment, and the flow direction arrow of a refrigerant | coolant in FIG.

In FIG. 9, a refrigeration circuit 3000 s included in a vending machine 3000 (not shown) has the internal heat exchanger 10 installed in a pipe 56 through which a medium temperature and low pressure refrigerant flows.
That is, a part of the pipe 67, which is in the range closer to the accumulator 7 than the branch point (not accurately branched) 6 of the pipe 57, is connected to the internal low-pressure side heat transfer pipe 10 b forming the internal heat exchanger 10.

And the internal high voltage | pressure side heat exchanger tube 10a and the internal low voltage | pressure side heat exchanger tube 10b are arrange | positioned directly or via a heat exchanger so that heat transfer is possible.

(全室冷却運転モード)
図10の(a)において、自動販売機2000が全室冷却運転モード(CCC運転モード)を実行する際の冷媒の流れは、圧縮機1によって圧縮された高温高圧冷媒が、配管12(電磁弁12vが開き、電磁弁15Lv、15Mvが閉じている)を経由してガスクーラ2に流入し、全室冷却用膨張手段3Cにおいて膨張して低温低圧冷媒となって、左室熱交換器5L、中室熱交換器5Mおよび右室熱交換器5Rに流入する(電磁弁45Lv、45Mv、45Rvが開いている)。よって、左室40L、中室40Mおよび右室40Rが、冷却される。
そして、中温低圧冷媒は配管57に流れ込み、分岐管69を経由して戻り熱交換器9に流入し、さらに、アキュムレータ7を経由して圧縮機1に吸引される(実施の形態1に同じ)。
(All rooms cooling operation mode)
In FIG. 10A, when the vending machine 2000 executes the all-chamber cooling operation mode (CCC operation mode), the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant compressed by the compressor 1 is connected to the pipe 12 (solenoid valve). 12v is opened and solenoid valves 15Lv and 15Mv are closed), and flows into the gas cooler 2 and expands in the all-chamber expansion means 3C to become a low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant. It flows into the chamber heat exchanger 5M and the right chamber heat exchanger 5R (the electromagnetic valves 45Lv, 45Mv, and 45Rv are open). Therefore, the left chamber 40L, the middle chamber 40M, and the right chamber 40R are cooled.
Then, the medium-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant flows into the pipe 57, flows back into the return heat exchanger 9 through the branch pipe 69, and is further sucked into the compressor 1 through the accumulator 7 (same as in the first embodiment). .

(2室加熱運転モード)
図10の(b)において、自動販売機2000が2室加熱運転モード(HHC運転モード)を実行する際の冷媒の流れは、圧縮機1によって圧縮された高温高圧冷媒が、配管15L、15M(電磁弁12vが閉じ、電磁弁15Lv、15Mvが開いて)を経由して、左室熱交換器5Lおよび中室熱交換器5Mに流入する。
その後、庫外熱交換器8および内部熱交換器10(正確には、内部高圧側伝熱管10a)を通過して加熱用膨張手段3Hに到達し、加熱用膨張手段3Hにおいて膨張した冷媒は分岐点4において分岐されて配管45R(電磁弁45Rvが開き、電磁弁45Lv、45Mvが閉じている)を経由して右室熱交換器5Rに流入する。そして、配管57Cに流入した冷媒(中温低圧冷媒)は、分岐管69に流入して内部熱交換器10(正確には、内部低圧側伝熱管10b)を経由した後、アキュムレータ7に供給される。
(Two-chamber heating operation mode)
In FIG. 10B, the flow of the refrigerant when the vending machine 2000 executes the two-chamber heating operation mode (HHC operation mode) indicates that the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant compressed by the compressor 1 is connected to the pipes 15L and 15M ( The electromagnetic valve 12v is closed and the electromagnetic valves 15Lv and 15Mv are opened), and flows into the left chamber heat exchanger 5L and the middle chamber heat exchanger 5M.
Thereafter, the refrigerant passes through the external heat exchanger 8 and the internal heat exchanger 10 (more precisely, the internal high-pressure side heat transfer tube 10a) and reaches the heating expansion means 3H, and the refrigerant expanded in the heating expansion means 3H branches. It branches at the point 4 and flows into the right ventricular heat exchanger 5R via the pipe 45R (the electromagnetic valve 45Rv is opened and the electromagnetic valves 45Lv and 45Mv are closed). Then, the refrigerant (medium-temperature low-pressure refrigerant) flowing into the pipe 57C flows into the branch pipe 69, passes through the internal heat exchanger 10 (more precisely, the internal low-pressure side heat transfer pipe 10b), and is then supplied to the accumulator 7. .

そうすると、内部熱交換器10の内部高圧側伝熱管10aと内部低圧側伝熱管10bとの間で熱交換可能であるため、内部低圧側伝熱管10bに流入した中温低圧冷媒は、内部高圧側伝熱管10aを通過する中温高圧冷媒が保有する温熱を受け取って温度が上昇し、さらに、アキュムレータ7において気液が分離され、気相状態で圧縮機1に吸引される。
したがって、前者の温度は低下し、後者の温度は上昇するから、より過冷却状態(サブクール)において冷媒を膨張したり、より過熱状態(スーパーヒート)において冷媒を圧縮したりすることになるため、圧縮機1の負荷を増すことなく、低温低圧冷媒の最低温度をより低くしたり、高温高圧冷媒の最高温度をより高くしたりすることができる。よって、圧縮機1の吐出温度が上昇し、左室40Lおよび中室40Mの加熱が確実になる。
このとき、電磁弁12vが閉じているから、高温高圧冷媒がガスクーラ2やアキュムレータ7に流入することがなく、電磁弁23Cvが閉じているから、低温低圧冷媒がガスクーラ2やアキュムレータ7に流入することがない。
Then, since heat exchange is possible between the internal high-pressure side heat transfer tube 10a and the internal low-pressure side heat transfer tube 10b of the internal heat exchanger 10, the medium temperature and low-pressure refrigerant flowing into the internal low-pressure side heat transfer tube 10b The temperature of the medium-temperature high-pressure refrigerant passing through the heat pipe 10a is received and the temperature rises. Further, the gas-liquid is separated in the accumulator 7 and sucked into the compressor 1 in a gas phase state.
Therefore, the former temperature decreases and the latter temperature rises. Therefore, the refrigerant is expanded in a supercooled state (subcool) or compressed in a superheated state (superheat). Without increasing the load on the compressor 1, it is possible to lower the minimum temperature of the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant or to increase the maximum temperature of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant. Therefore, the discharge temperature of the compressor 1 rises, and heating of the left chamber 40L and the middle chamber 40M is ensured.
At this time, since the solenoid valve 12v is closed, the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant does not flow into the gas cooler 2 and the accumulator 7, and since the solenoid valve 23Cv is closed, the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant flows into the gas cooler 2 and the accumulator 7. There is no.

(1室加熱運転モード)
自動販売機3000が1室加熱運転モード(HCC運転モードまたはCHC運転モード)を実行する際の冷媒の流れは、前記2室加熱運転モード(HHC運転モード)に準じるから、説明を省略する(実施の形態1参照)。

Since the flow of the refrigerant when the vending machine 3000 executes the one-chamber heating operation mode (HCC operation mode or CHC operation mode) conforms to the two-chamber heating operation mode (HHC operation mode), description thereof is omitted (implementation). (Refer to Form 1).
