본 발명은 냉방장치의 기액분리기에 관한 것으로서, 보다 상세하게는 냉방장치의 팽창밸브와 내부열교환기 일체형 기액분리기에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a gas-liquid separator of a cooling device, and more particularly, to an expansion valve and an internal heat exchanger integrated gas-liquid separator of a cooling device.

일반적으로 차량의 냉방을 위한 공조장치에서, 냉매는 압축기, 응축기, 팽창밸브, 증발기를 순환하는 냉동사이클을 형성하는데, 압축기에 의해 임계상태를 초과하는 초임계상태로 압축되는 냉동 사이클을 초임계 냉동사이클이라 한다. 통상적으로 초임계 냉동 사이클에 있어서는, 냉매가 압축된 이후에 대기 중으로 방열하는 과정에서 상변화를 겪지 않으므로, 이때의 방열장치는 응축기 대신 가스 냉각기로 불리운다.In general, in an air conditioner for cooling a vehicle, the refrigerant forms a refrigeration cycle that circulates a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve, and an evaporator. The supercritical refrigeration cycle is compressed by a compressor into a supercritical state exceeding a threshold state. It is called a cycle. Typically, in a supercritical refrigeration cycle, since the refrigerant does not undergo a phase change in the process of radiating to the atmosphere after being compressed, the radiator at this time is called a gas cooler instead of a condenser.

이와 같은 초임계 냉동사이클에서, 냉매 특성상 증발기를 거쳐나온 냉매는 과열도를 형성하기 어렵기 때문에 압축기에 액체 냉매가 유입되고, 이로 인한 리퀴드 백(liquid back)현상이 발생하여 압축기에 손상을 입힐 수 있다. 이를 방지하기 위해 저압측에 기액분리기를 설치하여 이를 통해 기액을 분리하고, 기체 냉매를 내부열교환기를 통과시켜 과열도를 형성하여 압축기로 보내게 된다. 이때 가스 냉각기에서 나온 냉매는 상기 내부열교환기를 통과시켜 임계온도 이하로 내려 과냉각도 형성을 용이하게 한다.In such a supercritical refrigeration cycle, the refrigerant passing through the evaporator is difficult to form a superheat due to the nature of the refrigerant, so that the liquid refrigerant flows into the compressor, which may cause liquid back, which may damage the compressor. have. In order to prevent this, a gas-liquid separator is installed on the low pressure side to separate the gas-liquid, and the gaseous refrigerant is passed through the internal heat exchanger to form a superheat, which is then sent to the compressor. At this time, the refrigerant from the gas cooler passes through the internal heat exchanger to be lowered below a critical temperature to facilitate the formation of a supercooling degree.

이러한 초임계 냉동사이클의 냉방장치는 도1에 도시한 바와 같이, 냉방사이클을 형성하는 압축기(1), 콘덴서(가스 냉각기)(2), 팽창밸브(3) 및 증발기(4)가 설치되는 한편, 증발기로부터 나온 냉매로부터 기액을 분리하는 기액분리기(5)와, 상기 콘덴서(가스 냉각기)(2)로부터 유출된 냉매와 상기 기액분리기(5)로부터 유출된 냉매 사이의 열교환을 시키기 위한 내부열교환기(6)가 설치된 시스템이다.As shown in FIG. 1, the cooling device of such a supercritical refrigeration cycle is provided with a compressor 1, a condenser (gas cooler) 2, an expansion valve 3, and an evaporator 4, which form a cooling cycle. And an internal heat exchanger for performing heat exchange between the gas-liquid separator 5 for separating gas liquid from the refrigerant from the evaporator, and the refrigerant flowing out of the condenser (gas cooler) 2 and the refrigerant flowing out of the gas-liquid separator 5 ( 6) is installed system.

이러한 초임계 냉동사이클의 냉방장치는 기액분리기와 내부열교환기가 별도 로 구성되기 때문에 구조적으로 복잡하고 차량의 협소한 공간에 장착하기가 용이하지 못하였다. 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해 내부열교환기와 기액분리기를 통합한 내부열교환기 일체형 기액분리기가 한국등록실용신안 제20-0365161호로 개시되어 있다.The cooling device of such a supercritical refrigeration cycle is structurally complicated and difficult to install in a narrow space of the vehicle because the gas-liquid separator and the internal heat exchanger are configured separately. In order to solve this problem, an internal heat exchanger integrated gas-liquid separator incorporating an internal heat exchanger and a gas-liquid separator is disclosed in Korean Utility Model Registration No. 20-0365161.

As shown in FIG. 2, the Korean Utility Model Utility Model No. 20-0365161 discloses a hollow gas-liquid separator body 11 having an empty inside and one end of a gas cooler (2: shown in FIG. 1). An inner heat exchange tube 12 connected to an outlet end and connected to an inlet end of an expansion valve 3 (shown in FIG. 1) and spirally wound inside the gas-liquid separator body 11, and the inner heat exchange tube 12. An outer heat exchanger tube 13 having a predetermined length along an outer side of the inner heat exchanger tube 12 to form a space between the outer surface of the inner heat exchanger tube 12 and a double tube together with the inner heat exchanger tube 12, and A refrigerant inlet pipe 15 connected to the outlet end of the evaporator 4 (shown in FIG. 1) and the other end connected to one end of the outer heat exchanger tube 13, and one end of the evaporator 4 at the top of the gas-liquid separator body 11. The other end is connected to the inlet end of the compressor (shown in Fig. 1) Provided with a refrigerant discharge tube 16 leading to a refrigerant to the compressor.

상기 냉매 유입관(15)은 상기 내측 열교환관(12)의 냉매 유입측과 가까운 부분에서 외측 열교환관(13)과 연통되며, 상기 외측 열교환관(13)은 내측 열교환관(12)의 토출측과 가까운 일단부에 기액분리기 몸체(11) 내부로 냉매가 토출되는 토출공(13a)이 형성되고, 상기 냉매 토출관(16)의 상단부와 외측 열교환관(13)의 토출공(13a) 사이에는 필터(14)가 설치되며, 상기 냉매 토출관(16)의 하부에는 기액 분리기 몸체(11) 하부에 모여진 압축기 작동용 오일이 회수되도록 오일 회수공(16a)이 형성되어 있다.The refrigerant inlet tube 15 communicates with the outer heat exchange tube 13 at a portion close to the refrigerant inlet side of the inner heat exchange tube 12, and the outer heat exchange tube 13 is connected to the discharge side of the inner heat exchange tube 12. A discharge hole 13a through which the refrigerant is discharged into the gas-liquid separator body 11 is formed at an adjacent end thereof, and a filter is formed between the upper end of the refrigerant discharge tube 16 and the discharge hole 13a of the outer heat exchange tube 13. 14 is provided, and an oil recovery hole 16a is formed in the lower portion of the refrigerant discharge tube 16 so that oil for compressor operation collected under the gas-liquid separator body 11 is recovered.

그런데, 상기한 바와 같은 종래 냉방장치의 내부열교환기 일체형 기액분리기에는 기액분리기 몸체의 상 하측에 냉매 입출구가 형성되어 배관이 용이하지 못하고, 기액분리기 몸체 내부에서의 열교환 효율이 만족할 만하지 못하여 시스템 효율이 낮다는 문제점이 있었다.However, the above-described internal heat exchanger integrated gas-liquid separator of the conventional air conditioner has a refrigerant inlet and outlet formed on the upper and lower sides of the gas-liquid separator body, so that piping is not easy, and heat exchange efficiency in the gas-liquid separator body is not satisfactory, resulting in low system efficiency. Had a problem.

The coil is wound in the form of a structure having a portion of the high pressure refrigerant inlet 28a, a heat exchanger 28b, a high pressure refrigerant outlet 28c and an outlet port 28d.

발명에 의한 냉방장치의 팽창밸브와 내부열교환기 일체형 기액분리기는 도4에 도시한 바와 같이 압축기(1), 가스냉각기(2), 증발기(4)가 별개로 배치되되, 팽창밸브와 기액분리기와 내부열교환기가 하나의 유니트(8)로 일체화하여 배치되어 냉방 시스템을 이루므로 구조가 간단하고 설치면적이 줄어들게 된다. In the expansion valve and the internal heat exchanger integrated gas-liquid separator of the present invention, the compressor 1, the gas cooler 2, and the evaporator 4 are separately arranged, as shown in FIG. Since the heat exchanger is arranged integrally with one unit 8 to form a cooling system, the structure is simple and the installation area is reduced.

이와 같이 구성된 본 발명에 의한 냉방장치의 팽창밸브와 내부열교환기 일체형 기액분리기에서, 증발기를 통과한 저압냉매는 저압측 냉매유입관(24)을 통해 저압통(22)의 내부에 유입한 후, 냉매통과홀(22a)을 통해 탱크(20) 내부로 흘러 비중차이에 의해 오일과 액상냉매와 기상냉매가 탱크의 하측에서부터 층을 이루며 분리된다. In the expansion valve and the internal heat exchanger integrated gas-liquid separator of the air conditioner according to the present invention configured as described above, the low pressure refrigerant passing through the evaporator flows into the inside of the low pressure cylinder 22 through the low pressure side refrigerant inlet tube 24, and then the refrigerant The oil, the liquid refrigerant, and the gaseous refrigerant are separated into layers from the bottom of the tank by the specific gravity difference, which flows into the tank 20 through the passage hole 22a.

상기 저압통(22)의 내부에 유입된 오일은 오일 통과홀(22b)를 통해 탱크(20)의 내부 하측으로 흐른다. 탱크(20)의 내부에 잔류하는 오일은 오일 리턴홀(26b)을 통해 저압측 냉매유출관(26)의 내부로 유입되어 순환함에 의해 압축기를 원활히 작동시킨다.The oil introduced into the low pressure cylinder 22 flows to the lower side of the tank 20 through the oil through hole 22b. Oil remaining in the tank 20 flows into the low pressure refrigerant outlet pipe 26 through the oil return hole 26b and circulates to smoothly operate the compressor.

상기 탱크(20)의 내부 상측에 위치하는 기상냉매는 기상냉매 포집부(26a)를 통해 저압측 냉매유출관(26)에 유입되어 저압통(22)을 통과하면서 고압냉매와 열교환된다.The gaseous refrigerant located inside the tank 20 is introduced into the low-pressure side refrigerant outlet pipe 26 through the gaseous-phase refrigerant collecting unit 26a, and passes through the low-pressure cylinder 22 to exchange heat with the high-pressure refrigerant.

가스냉각기를 통과한 고압냉매는 고압코일관(28)의 고압냉매 유입부(28a)를 통해 고압코일관(28)의 내부에 유입되어 저압통(22)의 내부에서 저압냉매(저압통과 저압측 냉매유입관과 저압측 냉매유출관의 내부에 흐르는 냉매)와 열교환된 후 고압냉매 유출부(28c)의 출구포트(28d)에 설치된 팽창밸브(30)에서 팽창된 후 외부 배관을 향해 흐르게 된다. The high pressure refrigerant passing through the gas cooler is introduced into the high pressure coil pipe 28 through the high pressure refrigerant inlet 28a of the high pressure coil pipe 28, and the low pressure refrigerant (low pressure cylinder and the low pressure side) inside the low pressure cylinder 22. After the heat exchange with the refrigerant flowing in the refrigerant inlet pipe and the low-pressure side refrigerant outflow tube) is expanded in the expansion valve 30 installed in the outlet port (28d) of the high-pressure refrigerant outlet (28c) flows toward the external pipe.

한편, 상기 저압통(22)의 내부에서 저압측 냉매유입관(24)에 형성된 냉매 분사홀(24a)을 통해 저압냉매가 분사되면서 고압냉매와의 열교환효율을 높인다.On the other hand, while the low pressure refrigerant is injected through the refrigerant injection hole 24a formed in the low pressure side refrigerant inlet pipe 24 in the low pressure cylinder 22, the heat exchange efficiency with the high pressure refrigerant is increased.

본 발명에 의한 냉방장치의 팽창밸브와 내부열교환기 일체형 기액분리기에 의하면, 기액분리기 탱크의 내부에 저압통을 설치하고, 저압통의 내부에서 저압냉매와 고압냉매간의 열교환이 이루어지게 하므로써, 열교환 효율이 높게 되어 시스템 효율이 높아지고, 저압통에 입출구 배관을 집중적으로 설치하므로 배관하기가 손쉬워지며, 팽창밸브가 기액분리기와 일체로 되어 있으므로 냉방시스템의 구조가 간단해 진다는 효과가 있다.According to the expansion valve and the internal heat exchanger integrated gas-liquid separator of the air conditioner according to the present invention, the low-pressure cylinder is installed inside the gas-liquid separator tank and heat exchange between the low-pressure refrigerant and the high-pressure refrigerant is performed inside the low-pressure cylinder. The system efficiency is high, and the inlet and outlet pipes are concentrated in the low pressure cylinder, so the pipe is easy to install, and the expansion valve is integrated with the gas-liquid separator, thereby simplifying the structure of the cooling system.
