Conventional configuration and its problems As is generally known, when an air conditioner is operated for heating at low temperatures, the refrigerant dissolves into the lubricating oil in the compressor, so even if the compressor is driven, the refrigerant does not circulate. The amount does not increase easily, the heating start-up time becomes longer, and the lubricating effect is inhibited.
This may have an adverse effect on valves, etc. that control the flow of refrigerant.

As a result, when such a drive signal is applied, an alternating current voltage as shown in FIG. 3 is applied between each terminal of the stator winding 14. What requires attention here is the selection of the frequency of the AC power supply at this time. If a low frequency below a certain level is selected, vibrations and noise will be generated, or the input will be larger than necessary, leading to an excessive temperature rise, and in some cases, problems such as the compressor starting to rotate may occur.

In this embodiment, in order to overcome the above disadvantages,
As shown in Figure 3, the normal operating frequency (30 to 150
It uses a single-phase AC power supply with a frequency of approximately 25KHz, which is considerably higher than the current frequency (approximately 25KHz). Since such high frequencies are outside the audible range, no noise is generated, and since they are significantly outside the resonant frequency of the compressor, the generation of vibrations can be suppressed. Furthermore, the stator winding 14
Due to the influence of the inductance, stator winding 1
The motor current flowing through the compressor 4 is reduced, and as a result, the input power is kept low, an excessive temperature rise can be prevented, and the rotating part of the compressor does not rotate.

The reason why a single-phase AC power source was adopted is that the device can be constructed simply and the input power can be reduced. Furthermore, the reason for providing the switching device 24 is to allow the user to use this standby function as needed, and to avoid unnecessary power consumption when the air conditioner is not operated for a long period of time. It is something to hold down.

Effects of the Invention As explained above, the present invention provides a configuration in which a compressor in an air conditioner is driven by an inverter device at a variable voltage and by a variable frequency AC power source.
This system supplies AC power with a frequency higher than the normal operating frequency from the AC power source when the compressor is stopped at low temperatures, and does not require any special heating means, generates no vibration or noise, and does not touch the rotating parts of the compressor. Heat is generated from inside the compressor without rotating it, increasing the heat retention effect of the compressor with a small amount of electric power.With a simple configuration, the heating startup time at low temperatures is shortened, and the lubrication effect inside the compressor is smoothed. This has the effect of protecting the valve, etc.
