본 발명은 하나의 실외기를 이용하여 여러방을 동시 냉방 또는 선택 냉방할 수 있도록 된 멀티에어컨에 관한 것으로, 특히 1실 운전시와 다실 운전시 실내측 열교환기들간의 냉각능력차이를 최소화하여 최적의 냉동싸이클을 이룰 수 있도록 한 멀티에어컨의 냉매제어장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a multi-air conditioner capable of simultaneously cooling or selectively cooling several rooms using a single outdoor unit, and in particular, optimal refrigeration by minimizing the difference in cooling capacity between indoor side heat exchangers during one-room operation and multi-room operation. The present invention relates to a refrigerant control device for a multi-air conditioner to achieve a cycle.

일반적으로 에어컨의 실외기는, 압축기와 실외측열교환기 및 냉매관에 연결되는 밸브등으로 이루어지고, 실내기는 실내측열교환기와 모세관 또는 팽창밸브 및 밸브등으로 이루어져 있는 바, 압축기에 의해 고온고압의 기체상태로 압축된 냉매가 실외측열교환기에 유입되면 실외측열교환기에서는 고온고압으로 압축된 기체냉매를 냉각팬에 의해 송풍되는 공기로 열교환하여 냉매를 강제냉각시켜 액화한다.In general, an outdoor unit of an air conditioner is composed of a valve connected to a compressor, an outdoor side heat exchanger, and a refrigerant pipe, and an indoor unit is composed of an indoor side heat exchanger, a capillary tube, an expansion valve, and a valve. When the compressed refrigerant is introduced into the outdoor side heat exchanger, the outdoor side heat exchanger exchanges the gas refrigerant compressed at high temperature and high pressure with air blown by a cooling fan to forcibly cool the refrigerant to liquefy.

이어서 상기 실외측열교환기에서 약 35℃-40℃로 온도가 저하된 고압의 액상냉매는 증발압력까지 팽창시키는 모세관을 통과하면서 저온저압의 기체와 액체로 공존하는 냉매로 되어 실내기의 실내측열교환기에 유입된다.Subsequently, the high pressure liquid refrigerant whose temperature is reduced to about 35 ° C.-40 ° C. in the outdoor side heat exchanger is a refrigerant that coexists with the low temperature low pressure gas and liquid while passing through a capillary tube that expands to the evaporation pressure. Inflow.

한편 상기 실내측열교환기로 유입된 냉매는 실내측열교환기를 통과하면서 기화할 때 실내팬에 의해 송풍되는 공기에서 열을 빼앗아 실내공기를 냉각시킨 다음, 그 냉각된 공기(냉풍)를 실내로 토출해서 냉방을 행하고, 상기 실내측열교환기에서 상변화된 저온저압의 기체냉매는 다시 압축기에 의해 흡입되어 반복순환하는 냉동싸이클을 형성한다.Meanwhile, the refrigerant introduced into the indoor heat exchanger takes heat from the air blown by the indoor fan when evaporated while passing through the indoor heat exchanger, cools the indoor air, and then discharges the cooled air (cold air) into the room to cool it. The low temperature and low pressure gas refrigerant, which is changed in phase in the indoor side heat exchanger, is again sucked by the compressor to form a recirculating refrigeration cycle.

그런데 이와같은 냉동싸이클에 의해 냉방을 수행하는 공기조화기는 실외기에 구비된 하나의 실외측열교환기로 실내기에 구비된 하나의 실내측열교환기를 제어하여 개별냉방을 수행하기 때문에 여러방을 동시에 냉방시킬 수 없는 결점이 있음은 물론, 다수개의 실내기로 여러방을 냉방할 경우에는 다수개의 실외기를 설치해야 하므로 설치공간을 확보하기가 곤란하고 미관도 좋지 않은 결점이 있었다.However, the air conditioner that performs cooling by such a refrigeration cycle cannot control several rooms simultaneously because individual air conditioning is performed by controlling one indoor heat exchanger provided in the indoor unit by one outdoor heat exchanger provided in the outdoor unit. Of course, when cooling a plurality of indoor units with a plurality of indoor units, it is difficult to secure the installation space and the aesthetics are not good because it requires the installation of a plurality of outdoor units.

이러한 제반결점을 해소하기 위하여 종래에도 제1도에 도시된 것과 같은 냉매순환을 하도록 된 멀티에어콘이 제안되어 있는 바, 실외기의 내부에 구비된 압축기(11)에 실외측열교환기(12)가 연결되고, 이 실외측열교환기(12)에 후술되는 실내기를 구성하는 각각의 실내측열교환기(13a, 13b, 13c)와 같은 개수로 분기시킬 수 있도록 된 분배수단인 솔레노이드밸브(14a, 14b, 14c)가 연결되며, 이 각각의 솔레노이드밸브(14a, 14b, 14c)에 1방향밸브(15a, 15b, 15c) 및 연결배관(16a. 16b, 16c)이 각각 직렬 연결됨과 더불어, 이 연결배관(16a, 16b, 16c)에 각각의 실내기를 구성하는 실내측열교환기(13a, 13b, 13c)의 출구측 냉매의 온도를 감지하여 오리피스다이어메타를 열고 닫으면서 유량을 제어할 수 있는 각각의 온도식팽창밸브(17a, 17b, 17c)가 직렬연결되고, 이 온도식팽창밸브(17a, 17b, 17c)와 3개의 실내측열교환기(13a, 13b, 13c)가 각각 직렬로 연결되며, 이 실내측열교환기(13a, 13b, 13c)에서 상변화된 저온저압의 기체냉매를 1개의 압축기(11)로 보낼수 있도록 2방향밸브(18a, 18b, 18c)가 각각 직렬로 설치된 구조로 되어 있다.In order to solve the above-mentioned shortcomings, a conventional air conditioner has been proposed to circulate a refrigerant as shown in FIG. 1 and the outdoor side heat exchanger 12 is connected to the compressor 11 provided in the outdoor unit. And the solenoid valves 14a, 14b, and 14c serving as distribution means capable of branching into the same number of indoor side heat exchangers 13a, 13b, and 13c constituting the indoor unit described later. ) Is connected to each of the solenoid valves 14a, 14b and 14c, and the one-way valves 15a, 15b and 15c and the connection pipes 16a, 16b and 16c are connected in series, respectively. Temperature expansion for controlling the flow rate by opening and closing the orifice diameter by sensing the temperature of the outlet side refrigerant of the indoor side heat exchangers 13a, 13b, and 13c constituting the respective indoor units in the air conditioners 16b and 16c. The valves 17a, 17b, 17c are connected in series, and these thermal expansion valves 17a, 17 are b, 17c and three indoor heat exchangers 13a, 13b, and 13c are connected in series, and the low-temperature, low pressure gas refrigerant phase-changed in the indoor heat exchangers 13a, 13b, and 13c is connected to one compressor ( The two-way valves 18a, 18b, and 18c are installed in series so that they can be sent to 11).

이러한 멀티에어컨의 냉매제어는, 실외기에 구비된 압축기(11)에 의해 고온고압의 기체상태로 압축된 냉매가 1개의 실외측열교환기(12)로 유입되면 상기 실외측열교환기(12)에서는 고온고압으로 압축된 기체냉매를 냉각팬에 의해 송풍되는 공기로 냉매를 냉각시켜 액화시키게 되고, 상기 실외측열교환기(12)에서 액화된 저온고압의 액상냉매가 실내측열교환기(13a, 13b, 13c)와 같은 개수이면서 해당 실내측열교환기(13a, 13b, 13c)와 연동하여 개폐되는 솔레노이드밸브(14a, 14b, 14c)와 2방향밸브(15a, 15b, 15c) 및 연결배관(16a, 16b, 16c)을 매개로 분리됨과 동시에 냉매의 유입을 제어함은 물론 양을 조절할 수 있는 온도식팽창밸브(17a, 17b, 17c)를 통과하면서 상변화되어 각각의 실내기에 구비된 실내측열교환기(13a, 13b, 13c)에 유입되며, 이 실내측열교환기(13a, 13b, 13c)를 통과하는 냉매가 증발하여 기화할 때 실내팬에 의해 송풍되는 공기에서 열을 빼앗아 실내공기를 냉각시킨 다음 그 냉각된 공기를 실내로 토출시켜 냉방을 행하고 상기 실내측열교환기(13a, 13b, 13c)에서 상변화된 저온저압의 기체냉매는 유입수단의 2방향밸브(18a, 18b, 18c)를 통해서 다시 압축기(11)가 흡입하게 되어 반복순환하는 냉동싸이클을 형성한다.Refrigerant control of the multi-air conditioner, when the refrigerant compressed in the gas state of high temperature and high pressure by the compressor 11 provided in the outdoor unit flows into one outdoor side heat exchanger 12, the outdoor side heat exchanger 12 has a high temperature The gas refrigerant compressed to high pressure is liquefied by cooling the refrigerant with air blown by a cooling fan, and the low temperature and high pressure liquid refrigerant liquefied in the outdoor side heat exchanger (12) is an indoor side heat exchanger (13a, 13b, 13c). ) And solenoid valves 14a, 14b, 14c and two-way valves 15a, 15b, 15c that are opened and closed in conjunction with the corresponding indoor side heat exchangers 13a, 13b, 13c, and connecting pipes 16a, 16b, The indoor side heat exchanger 13a provided in each indoor unit is phase-changed while passing through the thermal expansion valves 17a, 17b, and 17c, which can be separated by the medium 16c and control the inflow of the refrigerant, as well as control the amount thereof. , 13b, 13c) through the indoor side heat exchanger (13a, 13b, 13c) The excess refrigerant takes heat away from the air blown by the indoor fan when the refrigerant evaporates and vaporizes, cools the indoor air, and then discharges the cooled air into the room to perform cooling. The indoor side heat exchanger (13a, 13b, 13c) The low-temperature low-temperature gas refrigerant at the compressor is again sucked by the compressor 11 through the two-way valves 18a, 18b, and 18c of the inlet unit, thereby forming a refrigerating cycle.

그러나 이러한 냉동싸이클은 실외측열교환기(12)의 출구에 별도의 냉매분배장치를 사용하여 각각의 실내측열교환기(13a, 13b, 13c)로 냉매를 분배하여 1실에서 다실까지 운전하게 되는바, 1실 운전시와 다실 운전시가 모두 한 개의 실내측열교환기(13a, 13b, 13c)에 의해 냉매가 공급되므로 1실 운전시와 다실 운전시에 냉각능력의 차이가 발생되는 문제점이 있었다.However, such a refrigeration cycle uses a separate refrigerant distribution device at the outlet of the outdoor side heat exchanger (12) to distribute the refrigerant to each indoor side heat exchanger (13a, 13b, 13c) to operate from one room to the tea room. In the single-room operation and the multi-room operation, the refrigerant is supplied by one indoor side heat exchanger (13a, 13b, 13c), so there is a problem that a difference in cooling capacity occurs during single-room operation and multi-room operation.

또한 저온 즉 1실만 운전할 경우에도 용량이 큰 실외측열교환기를 사용해야 하므로 실외측열교환기가 과냉이 되어 실내측열교환기(13a, 13b, 13c)중 사용하고 있는 실내측열교환기가 동결되는 결점이 있다.In addition, even when only one room is operated at a low temperature, a large capacity outdoor side heat exchanger has to be used, so the outdoor side heat exchanger becomes overcooled, and the indoor side heat exchanger used among the indoor side heat exchangers 13a, 13b, and 13c freezes.

이에 본 발명은 상기와 같은 결점을 해결하기 위하여 안출된 것으로, 실외기의 내부에 설치된 내측실외측열교환기를 실내기의 수와 같게 설치하여 냉매가 순환되도록 제어할 수 있는 구조로, 1실 운전시와 다실 운전시의 실내측열교환기들간의 냉각능력차이를 최소화하여 최적의 냉동싸이클을 이룰 수 있음은 물론, 실내측열교환기의 과냉을 방지할 수 있도록 한 멀티에어컨의 냉매제어장치를 제공함에 그 목적이 있다.Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks, and the structure that can control the refrigerant to be circulated by installing the inside and outside heat exchanger installed inside the outdoor unit equal to the number of the indoor unit, one room operation and multi-room The purpose of the present invention is to provide an optimal refrigeration cycle by minimizing the difference in cooling capacity between indoor heat exchangers during operation, and to provide a refrigerant control device of a multi-air conditioner to prevent overcooling of the indoor heat exchanger. .

상기와 같은 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명은, 실외기에는 고온고압의 기체상태로 압축된 냉매를 이송시키는 압축기에 실내측열교환기와 같은 수로 분기되도록 솔레노이드밸브가 연결되고, 이 솔레노이드밸브에 냉각팬에 의해 송풍되는 공기로 냉매를 냉각시켜 액화시킬 수 있도록 실외측열교환기의 일단이 각각 직렬로 연결되며, 이 실외측열교환기의 타단에 2방향밸브가 직렬로 연결됨과 더불어, 상기 압축기의 타단에는 실내측열교환기에 각각 직렬로 연결되어 냉각된 저온저압의 기체냉매를 유입할 수 있도록 2방향밸브가 설치되는 한편, 실내기는 상기 2방향밸브와 각각 직렬로 연결된 연결배관을 매개로 실내측열교환기의 입.출구측 온도차이를 마이컴에 수식으로 입력하여 마이컴의 신호에 의하여 밸브의 모타를 회전시켜 밸브스핀들을 제어함으로써 유량을 제어하는 전자식팽창밸브가 연결되고, 이 전자식팽창밸브와 각각 직렬로 3개의 실내측열교환기가 연결되며, 이 실내측열교환기에 연결배관을 매개로 냉각된 저온저압의 기체냉매를 1개의 압축기로 보낼수 있도록 된 2방향밸브와 연결된 구조로 되어 있다.The present invention for achieving the above object, the outdoor unit is connected to the solenoid valve to branch to the same number as the indoor side heat exchanger to the compressor for transporting the compressed refrigerant in the gas state of high temperature and high pressure, the solenoid valve by a cooling fan One end of the outdoor side heat exchanger is connected in series so that the refrigerant can be cooled and liquefied by the blown air, and a two-way valve is connected in series with the other end of the outdoor side heat exchanger, and the other side of the compressor has an indoor side. The two-way valve is installed to inject the refrigerant of the low temperature and low pressure, respectively, connected in series to the heat exchanger, while the indoor unit is connected to the inlet of the indoor heat exchanger through a connecting pipe connected in series with the two-way valve. Control the valve spins by inputting the temperature difference of the outlet side into the microcomputer by rotating the motor of the valve according to the microcomputer signal.
