Cahenzli, Jr., iCom The Harry Alter poration of Illino FOR REFRIGERA- Chicago, Ill., assignor to pany, Chicago, 1",, a cor- Application November 10, 1944, Serial No. 562,881 '7 Claims. (Cl. 62-127) This invention relates to improvements in a combination metering device and heat exchanger for refrigerators, and more particularly to an apparatus readily installed in a refrigerating system for metering the supply of liquid refrigerant to an evaporator and for maintaining that liquid refrigerant as cold as possible when it is delivered to the evaporator, although the invention may have other uses and purposes as will be apparent to one skilled in the art.
Many manufacturers of ca] refrigerators and refrigerating systems have adopted the use of a metering tube for controlling the flow of liquid refrigerant from the condenser to the evaporator, a tube frequently referred to as a capillary tube. The use of such a tube'elima inates the need of expansion valves, float valves,
other types of valves, restrictive orifices, jets, or
similar structures likely to become out of order and difficult to repair or replace.
In all present installations of which I am aware where a metering tube is utilized to control the flow of liquid refrigerant, and a heat exchange is desired, that metering tube is soldered or otherwise metallically bonded to the suction line, and this is especially true of that portion of both the tube and suction line leading from the top of the cabinet near the evaporator down to the compressor. While the tube and suction line may be embedded. to some extent in the installation of instances a of the liquid refrigerant in the metering tube from the cold gaseous refrigerant in the suction line, while desirable is nevertheless a relatively small amount, and not nearly as great as is desired. Further, the bonding of the metering tube to the suction line is a hand operation, and consequently very expensive. With apparatus of the type now used, there is a some other feasible location. Such arrangement is not only messy, difllcult and expensive to install, but cumbersome, occupies an objectionable amount of space, and is both diflicult and expensive to repair.
electrical or mechani- With installations of the character above mentioned as heretofore made, it is obvious that when the compressor is operating some heat exchange occurs, but when the compressor is not operating, very little if any heat exchange occurs. advantages of having a heat exchanging arrangement is lessening of time of operation of the refrigerating mechanism, especially when the ambient air temperature is above 70 F. The object, of course, is to have the liquid refrigerant introduced into the evaporator as close as possible to the temperature inside the refrigerator cabinet,
preferably very close to the temperature inside the evaporator itself if possible, to thereby increase the efficiency of the refrigerator or the refrigerating system as the case may be. Extreme difficulty has been experienced in the past in locating even a portion of the metering tube in a colder or the coldest portion of the apparatus, and in obtaining heat exchange between the metering tube and the suction line or between the metering tube and any other cold part of the apparatus to anywheres near the desired extent.
With the foregoing in mind, it is an important object of the instant invention to provide a combination metering tube and heat exchanging arrangement which may be easily located in substantially system.
Also an object of the instant invention is the provision of a heat exchanger for refrigerating systems which is located inside the refrigerator cabinet at all times, and which may be so located in an extremely inexpensive manner.
Another object of the instant invention is the the coldest part of the refrigerating provision of a heat exchanging arrangement for refrigerating systems which eliminates any need of hand soldering or other metallic bonding operations between various lines or conduits 0f the system and which is so simple in construction as to require only one additional connection over a system having no heat exchange arrangement whatever.
It is also a feature of the instant invention to provide a combination metering tube and heat exchanger for refrigeration systems, wherein heat exchange occurs all the time, both when the mechanism of the refrigerating system is in operation, and when that tion.
A further feature of the invention resides in the provision of a combination metering tube and heat exchanger for refrigerators which produces a greater degree of heat exchange than heat exchanging arrangements heretofore known, and
mechanism is not in opera- The in the provision of a combination metering tubeand heat exchanger in which substantially all the surface of the metering portion of the tube is exposed at all times to a lower temperature, that is substantially all of the surface of a metering portion of the tube is ship at all times.
It is also an object of the invention to provide a combination metering tube and heat exchanger which may be constructed in a unitary form, ,which occupies very little space, and which may be installed easily and quickly in a refrigerating in heat exchange relationsystem.
tion have been above pointed out, others will become apparent from the following disclosures, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a fragmentary diagrammatic showing of a refrigerating system including a combination metering tube and heat exchanger embodying principles of the instant invention;
Figure 2 is a fragmentary enlargement of a portion of the showing in Figure 1, illustrating the combined metering tube and heat exchanger partly in section and partly in elevation;
Figure 3 is a fragmentary side elevational view of a portion of the metering tube itself;
Figure 4 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view taken substantially as indicated by the line IV-IV of Figure 3, looking in the direction of the arrows; and
Figure 5 is afragmentary elevational view of the metering tube showing a different arrangement for purposes of heat exchange.
As shown on the drawings:
In Figure 1 there is shown quite diagrammatically a refrigerating system, and it is to be understood that the various conduits or lines of this system are exaggerated in many cases as to length. and arranged in many cases in a somewhat impractical manner, for purposes of clarity, the object of this showing being merely to illustrate the salient parts of a refrigerating system and the necessary connections.
With reference particularly to Figure 1, it will be seen that the system includes a compressor i which may be driven by an electric motor or other mechanical prime mover, a condenser 2 and an evaporator 3. A header 4, or some other salient part of the evaporator structure is connected to the compressor by way of a suction line 5. The compressor is in turn connected to the condenser by a line or conduit 6. The condenser is connected to the evaporator by a metering tube I, frequently referred to as a capillary tube. One end of the metering tube 1 is connected to the condenser, and the other end to the evaporator, preferably in a low portion of the evaporator. An intermediate portion of the metering tube I is disposed within a housing forming a heat exchanger and generally indicated by numeral 8 in Figure 1. This housing is disposed as an integral part of the suction line 5, and is located close to the evaporator 3 so as to be in an extremely cold portion of the system. The refrigerator cabinet is diagrammatically illustrated and indicated by numeral 9, to show that the heat exchanger 8 is disposed within the interior of the cabinet. It will be appreciated that the heat exchanger 8 may have one end thereof connected directly to the exaporator 3, if so desired.
If so'desired, that part of the metering tube 1 leading from the condenser to the heat exchanger 8 may be soldered or otherwise metallically bonded to the suction line 5, but the showing in Figure 1 has been arranged to indicate clearly that with the instant invention no such soldering or metallic bonding operation is necessary. With the instant invention, both portions of the metering tube outside of the heat exchanger 8, that is that portion leading to the evaporator, and that portion leading to the condenser, may be considered merely necessary connections, and may be as short as is feasible in order to establish those connections. Those portions of the metering tube need not be depended upon for any metering function.
With reference now to Figure 2, it will be seen that the heat exchanger 8 includes a housing, preferably comprising two parts in and H telescoped together and sealed as indicated at l2. The housing sections l0 and I! are expanded to provide an interior compartment l3 and. reduced end portions of the housing sections may be secured to ends of the suction line as indicated at [4 and I5, respectively. As stated above, if so desired, the connection at i5 may be.made directly to a part of the evaporator 3 and the short suction line section illustrated therebetween may be eliminated.
With reference more particularly to Figures 2, 3 and 4, it will be seen that an intermediate portion of the metering tube 1 has been Wound into the form of an elongated single layer coil i6, such coll being initially preferably tightly wound. So winding a metering tube, especially into a coil having a relatively small inside diameter, greatly enhances the restricting power of the tube so that a considerably less length of tubing is required to properly control the flow of liquid refrigerant than would be the case in the event the tube was not coiled, or just flatly coiled in a multiple loop of relatively large inside diameter. The nature of such a coil is more fully set forth, described, and claimed, in my co-pending application for United States Letters Patent entitled Metering tube for refrigerators, filed December 24, 1943, Serial No. 515,546, now abandoned. As pointed out more particularly in that co-pending application, a metering tube wound into an elongated coil having an inside diameter of -inch need only have a total length of six feet to restrict the flow of liquid refrigerant therethrough to substantially the same extent as an unwound tube of the same size with a length in excess of 2'7 feet. Now, insofar as the restricting properties of the metering tube are concerned, it makes no difference whether or not adjacent loops of the coil are in contact with each other or whether the coil is stretched, as long as the nomical manufacture. A suitable sealing means it, such as solder or the equivalent, may be employed to seal the opening it around the extruding ends of the metering tube so as to render the housing gas-tigh With reference more particularly to Figure 4 it will be noted that when the coil 86 is wound into the resultatnt coil H, the individual loops of the coil it are caused to be spaced apart as indicated at 20, so that substantially the only contact between adjacent loops of the first coil IE will be line contacts indicated at 2! and exposed freely for contact by the gaseous refrigerant passing through the suction line 5. Preferably the coiled is all that is relied liquid refrigerant to upon to control the flow of the evaporator, so that gaseous refrigerant leaves the top of the evaporator through the suction line 5. gaseous refrigerant entirely fills containing the coiled tube,
portion H of the and the gaseous refrigerant obviously will exchange arrangement whatever. Without a the interior of the housing and then the intermediate coiled portion of the metering tube 6 heat exchange arrangement. the'suctlon line 5 would be connected directly to the header 4 o! the evaporator.
' comes necessary.
In Figure 5' I have shown a slightly diflerent heat exchanging arrangement. In this arrangement, the metering tube V has been wound into the first elongated coil l6, and then the coil it has been coiled directly around the external surthe metering. tube.
That is, one tering tube may be end of the meconnected to the condenser, portion of the wide rang without departing from the principles of this invention and it is,
