Description

車両用空気調和装置Vehicle air conditioner
 本発明は、車室内を空調するヒートポンプ方式の車両用空気調和装置に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a heat pump type vehicle air conditioner that air-conditions a vehicle interior.
 近年の環境問題の顕在化から、車両に搭載されたバッテリから供給される電力で走行用モータを駆動する電気自動車やハイブリッド自動車等の車両が普及するに至っている。そして、このような車両に適用することができる空気調和装置として、電動式の圧縮機と、放熱器と、吸熱器(室内熱交換器)と、室外熱交換器が接続された冷媒回路を備え、圧縮機から吐出された冷媒を放熱器において放熱させ、この放熱器において放熱した冷媒を室外熱交換器において吸熱させることで暖房し、圧縮機から吐出された冷媒を室外熱交換器において放熱させ、吸熱器において蒸発させ、吸熱させることで冷房する等して車室内を空調するものが開発されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。 Due to the emergence of environmental problems in recent years, vehicles such as electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles that drive a traveling motor with electric power supplied from a battery mounted on the vehicle have become popular. Then, as an air conditioner that can be applied to such a vehicle, an electric compressor, a radiator, a heat absorber (indoor heat exchanger), and a refrigerant circuit to which an outdoor heat exchanger is connected are provided. , Radiates the refrigerant discharged from the compressor in the radiator, heats the refrigerant radiated in the radiator in the outdoor heat exchanger, and heats the refrigerant discharged from the compressor in the outdoor heat exchanger. A device for air-conditioning the interior of a vehicle by evaporating it in a heat absorber and cooling it by absorbing heat has been developed (for example, see Patent Document 1).
 一方、例えばバッテリは充放電による自己発熱等で高温となった環境下で充放電を行うと劣化が進行し、やがては作動不良を起こして破損する危険性がある。そこで、冷媒回路にバッテリ用の蒸発器を別途設け、冷媒回路を循環する冷媒とバッテリ用冷媒(熱媒体)とをこのバッテリ用の蒸発器で熱交換させ、この熱交換した熱媒体をバッテリに循環させることでバッテリを冷却することができるようにしたものも開発されている(例えば、特許文献2、特許文献3参照)。 On the other hand, for example, if the battery is charged and discharged in an environment where the temperature is high due to self-heating due to charging and discharging, deterioration will progress, and eventually there is a risk of malfunction and damage. Therefore, an evaporator for the battery is separately provided in the refrigerant circuit, and the refrigerant circulating in the refrigerant circuit and the refrigerant for the battery (heat medium) are heat-exchanged by the evaporator for the battery, and the heat medium thus heat-exchanged is transferred to the battery. A battery that can cool a battery by circulating the battery has also been developed (see, for example, Patent Documents 2 and 3).

 本発明によれば、冷媒を圧縮する圧縮機と、冷媒と車室内に供給する空気を熱交換させるための室内熱交換器と、制御装置を少なくとも備えて車室内を空調する車両用空気調和装置において、冷媒を吸熱させて車両に搭載された被温調対象を冷却するための被温調対象用熱交換器を設け、制御装置が、被温調対象用熱交換器又はそれにより冷却される対象の温度と、その目標温度に基づいて圧縮機の回転数を制御する被温調対象冷却モードを有すると共に、この被温調対象冷却モードにおいては、被温調対象用熱交換器又はそれにより冷却される対象の温度が、目標温度よりも低い所定の強制停止値を下回った場合、若しくは、当該強制停止値以下となった場合、その時点で圧縮機を停止するようにしたので、被温調対象用熱交換器又はそれにより冷却される対象の温度を、圧縮機の回転数制御により目標温度に維持しているときに被温調対象の冷却負荷が減少し、制御範囲を超えて被温調対象用熱交換器又はそれにより冷却される対象の温度が低下して、強制停止値を下回った場合、若しくは、それ以下となった場合、即座に圧縮機を停止することができるようになり、被温調対象の温度が下がり過ぎて結露が発生してしまう不都合を未然に回避することができるようになる。 According to the present invention, a compressor for compressing a refrigerant, an indoor heat exchanger for exchanging heat between the refrigerant and air to be supplied to the vehicle interior, and an air conditioner for a vehicle, which is provided with at least a control device, to air-condition the vehicle interior. In, the heat exchanger for the temperature controlled object for cooling the temperature controlled object mounted on the vehicle by absorbing the heat of the refrigerant is provided, and the control device is cooled by the heat exchanger for the temperature controlled object or the heat exchanger for the temperature controlled object. With a target temperature and a temperature controlled target cooling mode that controls the number of revolutions of the compressor based on the target temperature, in the temperature controlled target cooling mode, the temperature controlled target heat exchanger or If the temperature of the object to be cooled falls below a specified forced stop value that is lower than the target temperature, or if it falls below the forced stop value, the compressor is stopped at that point. When the temperature of the heat exchanger for temperature control or the temperature of the target cooled by it is maintained at the target temperature by controlling the rotation speed of the compressor, the cooling load of the temperature control target decreases and exceeds the control range. When the temperature of the temperature control target heat exchanger or the target cooled by it falls below the forced stop value or drops below that value, the compressor can be stopped immediately. Therefore, it is possible to avoid the inconvenience that the temperature of the object to be temperature-controlled falls too much and dew condensation occurs.
 そして、請求項2の発明の如く制御装置が、目標温度の上側に設定された所定の上限値と、強制停止値より上側であって目標温度の下側に設定された所定の下限値を有し、被温調対象用熱交換器又はそれにより冷却される対象の温度が強制停止値を下回り、若しくは、強制停止値以下となって圧縮機を停止した後は、上限値と下限値の間で圧縮機の運転/停止を繰り返すON-OFF制御を実行することで、被温調対象の結露を回避しながら当該被温調対象を適切に冷却することができるようになる。 Then, the control device has a predetermined upper limit value set above the target temperature and a predetermined lower limit value above the forced stop value and below the target temperature. However, after the temperature of the heat exchanger for temperature control or the object cooled by it falls below the forced stop value or becomes less than the forced stop value and the compressor is stopped, between the upper limit value and the lower limit value. By executing the ON-OFF control in which the operation/stop of the compressor is repeated, it is possible to appropriately cool the temperature-controlled object while avoiding dew condensation on the temperature-controlled object.
 特に、請求項3の発明の如く制御装置が、ON-OFF制御において圧縮機を運転する場合、制御上の所定の最低回転数で運転するようにすれば、圧縮機の頻繁な起動/停止を回避しながら、被温調対象を円滑に冷却することができるようになる。 In particular, when the control device operates the compressor in the ON-OFF control as in the third aspect of the present invention, if the control device is operated at a predetermined minimum rotation speed for control, frequent start/stop of the compressor can be achieved.

In such a case, the ON-OFF control is terminated and the temperature of the temperature-controlled target heat exchanger or the target cooled by the target temperature and the target temperature are returned to the state in which the number of revolutions of the compressor is controlled. Then, in response to an increase in the cooling load of the temperature-controlled object, it is possible to return from the ON-OFF control of the compressor to the normal rotation speed control without any trouble.
 更に、請求項5の発明の如く室内熱交換器への冷媒の流通を制御する弁装置を設け、制御装置が、被温調対象冷却モードとして、弁装置を開き、被温調対象用熱交換器又はそれにより冷却される対象の温度に基づいて圧縮機の回転数を制御し、室内熱交換器の温度に基づいて弁装置を開閉制御する被温調対象冷却(優先)+空調モードを有するようにすれば、被温調対象用熱交換器により被温調対象の冷却を優先的に行いながら、車室内の空調も行うことができるようになる。 Further, a valve device for controlling the flow of the refrigerant to the indoor heat exchanger is provided as in the invention of claim 5, and the controller opens the valve device in the cooling mode to be controlled by the temperature control so that the heat exchange for the controlled heat is performed. Has a temperature controlled target cooling (priority) + air conditioning mode in which the rotation speed of the compressor is controlled based on the temperature of the cooling device or the target cooled by it, and the valve device is opened/closed based on the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger. By doing so, it becomes possible to air-condition the vehicle interior while the object to be temperature-controlled is preferentially cooled by the heat exchanger for object to be temperature-controlled.
 また、請求項6の発明の如く制御装置が、もう一つの被温調対象冷却モードとして、弁装置を閉じ、被温調対象用熱交換器又はそれにより冷却される対象の温度に基づいて圧縮機の回転数を制御する被温調対象冷却(単独)モードを有するようにすれば、車室内を空調する必要が無い場合には、被温調対象の冷却のみを効果的に行うことができるようになる。 Further, the control device according to the invention of claim 6 closes the valve device as another cooling mode to be controlled by the temperature control, and compresses based on the temperature of the heat exchanger for the temperature control target or the target cooled by the heat exchanger. By providing a temperature controlled cooling (independent) mode for controlling the number of revolutions of the machine, only the temperature controlled target can be effectively cooled when it is not necessary to air-condition the vehicle interior. Like

The compressor is controlled by using Tw or the temperature Tcell of the temperature controlled object as the temperature of the object cooled by the heat exchanger for the temperature controlled object.

 尚、機器温度調整装置61を構成する循環ポンプ62や熱媒体加熱ヒータ63はバッテリコントローラ73により制御されるようにしてもよい。更に、このバッテリコントローラ73には機器温度調整装置61の冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64の熱媒体流路64Aの出口側の熱媒体の温度(熱媒体温度Tw:本発明における被温調対象用熱交換器により冷却される対象の温度)を検出する熱媒体温度センサ76と、バッテリ55の温度(バッテリ55自体の温度:バッテリ温度Tcell)を検出するバッテリ温度センサ77の出力が接続されている。そして、実施例ではバッテリ55の残量(蓄電量)やバッテリ55の充電に関する情報(充電中であることの情報や充電完了時間、残充電時間等)、熱媒体温度Twやバッテリ温度Tcellは、バッテリコントローラ73から車両通信バス65を介して空調コントローラ45や車両コントローラ72に送信される。尚、バッテリ55の充電時における充電完了時間や残充電時間に関する情報は、急速充電器等の外部の充電器から供給される情報である。 The circulation pump 62 and the heat medium heating heater 63 that form the device temperature adjusting device 61 may be controlled by the battery controller 73. Further, in the battery controller 73, the temperature of the heat medium on the outlet side of the heat medium flow passage 64A of the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 of the device temperature adjusting device 61 (heat medium temperature Tw: for temperature controlled object in the present invention) The output of the heat medium temperature sensor 76 that detects the temperature of the object cooled by the heat exchanger and the output of the battery temperature sensor 77 that detects the temperature of the battery 55 (the temperature of the battery 55 itself: the battery temperature Tcell) are connected. .. Then, in the embodiment, the remaining amount of the battery 55 (charge storage amount), information regarding charging of the battery 55 (information indicating that charging is being performed, charging completion time, remaining charging time, etc.), the heat medium temperature Tw, and the battery temperature Tcell are It is transmitted from the battery controller 73 to the air conditioning controller 45 and the vehicle controller 72 via the vehicle communication bus 65. The information about the charging completion time and the remaining charging time when the battery 55 is charged is information supplied from an external charger such as a quick charger.
 ヒートポンプコントローラ32と空調コントローラ45は車両通信バス65を介して相互にデータの送受信を行い、各センサの出力や空調操作部53にて入力された設定に基づき、各機器を制御するものであるが、この場合の実施例では外気温度センサ33、外気湿度センサ34、HVAC吸込温度センサ36、内気温度センサ37、内気湿度センサ38、室内CO2濃度センサ39、吹出温度センサ41、日射センサ51、車速センサ52、空気流通路3に流入して当該空気流通路3内を流通する空気の風量Ga(空調コントローラ45が算出)、エアミックスダンパ28による風量割合SW(空調コントローラ45が算出)、室内送風機27の電圧(BLV)、前述したバッテリコントローラ73からの情報、GPSナビゲーション装置74からの情報、空調操作部53の出力は空調コントローラ45から車両通信バス65を介してヒートポンプコントローラ32に送信され、ヒートポンプコントローラ32による制御に供される構成とされている。 The heat pump controller 32 and the air conditioning controller 45 send and receive data to and from each other via the vehicle communication bus 65, and control each device based on the output of each sensor and the setting input by the air conditioning operation unit 53. In the embodiment in this case, the outside air temperature sensor 33, the outside air humidity sensor 34, the HVAC intake temperature sensor 36, the inside air temperature sensor 37, the inside air humidity sensor 38, the indoor CO 2 concentration sensor 39, the blowout temperature sensor 41, the solar radiation sensor 51, the vehicle speed. The sensor 52, the air volume Ga of the air flowing into the air flow passage 3 and flowing in the air flow passage 3 (calculated by the air conditioning controller 45), the air flow rate SW by the air mix damper 28 (calculated by the air conditioning controller 45), the indoor blower The voltage (BLV) of 27, the information from the battery controller 73, the information from the GPS navigation device 74, and the output of the air conditioning operation unit 53 are transmitted from the air conditioning controller 45 to the heat pump controller 32 via the vehicle communication bus 65, and the heat pump It is configured to be used for control by the controller 32.
 また、ヒートポンプコントローラ32からも冷媒回路Rの制御に関するデータ(情報)が車両通信バス65を介して空調コントローラ45に送信される。尚、前述したエアミックスダンパ28による風量割合SWは、0≦SW≦1の範囲で空調コントローラ45が算出する。そして、SW=1のときはエアミックスダンパ28により、吸熱器9を経た空気の全てが放熱器4及び補助ヒータ23に通風されることになる。 The heat pump controller 32 also transmits data (information) regarding the control of the refrigerant circuit R to the air conditioning controller 45 via the vehicle communication bus 65. The air volume ratio SW by the air mix damper 28 described above is calculated by the air conditioning controller 45 in the range of 0≦SW≦1. Then, when SW=1, all of the air that has passed through the heat absorber 9 is ventilated by the radiator 4 and the auxiliary heater 23 by the air mix damper 28.
 以上の構成で、次に実施例の車両用空気調和装置1の動作を説明する。この実施例では制御装置11(空調コントローラ45、ヒートポンプコントローラ32)は、暖房モード、除湿暖房モード、除湿冷房モード、冷房モード、及び、空調(優先)+バッテリ冷却モードの各空調運転と、バッテリ冷却(優先)+空調モード、バッテリ冷却(単独)モードの各バッテリ冷却運転と、除霜モードを切り換えて実行する。これらが図3に示されている。 Next, the operation of the vehicle air conditioner 1 of the embodiment having the above configuration will be described. In this embodiment, the control device 11 (the air conditioning controller 45, the heat pump controller 32) controls the heating mode, the dehumidification heating mode, the dehumidification cooling mode, the cooling mode, and the air conditioning (priority)+battery cooling mode, and the battery cooling. Each battery cooling operation of (priority)+air conditioning mode and battery cooling (single) mode and defrosting mode are switched and executed. These are shown in FIG.
 このうち、暖房モードと、除湿暖房モードと、除湿冷房モードと、冷房モードと、空調(優先)+バッテリ冷却モードの各空調運転は、実施例ではバッテリ55を充電しておらず、車両のイグニッション(IGN)がONされ、空調操作部53の空調スイッチがONされている場合に実行されるものである。但し、リモート運転時(プレ空調等)にはイグニッションがOFFの場合にも実行される。また、バッテリ55を充電中でもバッテリ冷却要求が無く、空調スイッチがONされているときは実行される。一方、バッテリ冷却(優先)+空調モードと、バッテリ冷却(単独)モードの各バッテリ冷却運転は、例えば急速充電器(外部電源)のプラグを接続し、バッテリ55に充電しているときに実行されるものである。但し、バッテリ冷却(単独)モードは、バッテリ55の充電中以外にも、空調スイッチがOFFで、バッテリ冷却要求があった場合(高外気温で走行時等)には実行される。 Among these, in each of the air conditioning operations of the heating mode, the dehumidification heating mode, the dehumidification cooling mode, the cooling mode, and the air conditioning (priority)+battery cooling mode, the battery 55 is not charged in the embodiment, and the ignition of the vehicle is performed. This is executed when (IGN) is turned on and the air conditioning switch of the air conditioning operating unit 53 is turned on. However, it is executed even when the ignition is OFF during remote operation (pre-air conditioning, etc.). Further, even if the battery 55 is being charged, there is no battery cooling request, and the process is executed when the air conditioning switch is ON. On the other hand, each battery cooling operation in the battery cooling (priority)+air conditioning mode and the battery cooling (single) mode is executed, for example, when the plug of the quick charger (external power source) is connected and the battery 55 is being charged. It is something. However, the battery cooling (single) mode is executed when the air conditioning switch is OFF and there is a battery cooling request (such as when traveling at a high outside temperature) other than during charging of the battery 55.
 また、実施例ではヒートポンプコントローラ32は、イグニッションがONされているときや、イグニッションがOFFされていてもバッテリ55が充電中であるときは、機器温度調整装置61の循環ポンプ62を運転し、図4~図10に破線で示す如く熱媒体配管66内に熱媒体を循環させるものとする。更に、図3には示していないが、実施例のヒートポンプコントローラ32は、機器温度調整装置61の熱媒体加熱ヒータ63を発熱させることでバッテリ55を加熱するバッテリ加熱モードも実行する。 In addition, in the embodiment, the heat pump controller 32 operates the circulation pump 62 of the device temperature adjusting device 61 when the ignition is turned on, or when the battery 55 is being charged even when the ignition is turned off. It is assumed that the heat medium is circulated in the heat medium pipe 66 as indicated by broken lines in FIGS. 4 to 10. Further, although not shown in FIG. 3, the heat pump controller 32 of the embodiment also executes a battery heating mode for heating the battery 55 by causing the heat medium heating heater 63 of the device temperature adjusting device 61 to generate heat.
 (1)暖房モード
 先ず、図4を参照しながら暖房モードについて説明する。尚、各機器の制御はヒートポンプコントローラ32と空調コントローラ45の協働により実行されるものであるが、以下の説明ではヒートポンプコントローラ32を制御主体とし、簡略化して説明する。図4には暖房モードにおける冷媒回路Rの冷媒の流れ方(実線矢印)を示している。ヒートポンプコントローラ32により(オートモード)或いは空調コントローラ45の空調操作部53へのマニュアルの空調設定操作(マニュアルモード)により暖房モードが選択されると、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は電磁弁21を開き、電磁弁17、電磁弁20、電磁弁22、電磁弁35、電磁弁69を閉じる。そして、圧縮機2、及び、各送風機15、27を運転し、エアミックスダンパ28は室内送風機27から吹き出された空気が放熱器4及び補助ヒータ23に通風される割合を調整する状態とする。
(1) Heating Mode First, the heating mode will be described with reference to FIG. The control of each device is executed by the cooperation of the heat pump controller 32 and the air conditioning controller 45, but in the following description, the heat pump controller 32 will be the control main body and will be briefly described. FIG. 4 shows how the refrigerant flows in the refrigerant circuit R in the heating mode (solid arrow). When the heating mode is selected by the heat pump controller 32 (auto mode) or the manual air conditioning setting operation (manual mode) to the air conditioning operation unit 53 of the air conditioning controller 45, the heat pump controller 32 opens the solenoid valve 21 and the solenoid valve 17 , The solenoid valve 20, the solenoid valve 22, the solenoid valve 35, and the solenoid valve 69 are closed. Then, the compressor 2 and the blowers 15 and 27 are operated, and the air mix damper 28 adjusts the ratio of the air blown from the indoor blower 27 to the radiator 4 and the auxiliary heater 23.
 これにより、圧縮機2から吐出された高温高圧のガス冷媒は放熱器4に流入する。放熱器4には空気流通路3内の空気が通風されるので、空気流通路3内の空気は放熱器4内の高温冷媒と熱交換して加熱される。一方、放熱器4内の冷媒は空気に熱を奪われて冷却され、凝縮液化する。 With this, the high-temperature and high-pressure gas refrigerant discharged from the compressor 2 flows into the radiator 4. Since the air in the air flow passage 3 is ventilated through the radiator 4, the air in the air flow passage 3 is heated by exchanging heat with the high temperature refrigerant in the radiator 4. On the other hand, the refrigerant in the radiator 4 is cooled by being deprived of heat by the air and condensed and liquefied.
 放熱器4内で液化した冷媒は当該放熱器4を出た後、冷媒配管13E、13Jを経て室外膨張弁6に至る。室外膨張弁6に流入した冷媒はそこで減圧された後、室外熱交換器7に流入する。室外熱交換器7に流入した冷媒は蒸発し、走行により、或いは、室外送風機15により通風される外気中から熱を汲み上げる(吸熱)。即ち、冷媒回路Rがヒートポンプとなる。そして、室外熱交換器7を出た低温の冷媒は冷媒配管13A及び冷媒配管13D、電磁弁21を経て冷媒配管13Cに至り、更にこの冷媒配管13Cを経てアキュムレータ12に入り、そこで気液分離された後、冷媒配管13Kからガス冷媒が圧縮機2に吸い込まれる循環を繰り返す。放熱器4にて加熱された空気は吹出口29から吹き出されるので、これにより車室内の暖房が行われることになる。 The refrigerant liquefied in the radiator 4 exits the radiator 4, and then reaches the outdoor expansion valve 6 via the refrigerant pipes 13E and 13J. The refrigerant flowing into the outdoor expansion valve 6 is decompressed there, and then flows into the outdoor heat exchanger 7. The refrigerant that has flowed into the outdoor heat exchanger 7 evaporates and pumps up heat from the outside air that is ventilated by traveling or by the outdoor blower 15 (heat absorption). That is, the refrigerant circuit R serves as a heat pump. Then, the low-temperature refrigerant that has exited the outdoor heat exchanger 7 reaches the refrigerant pipe 13C via the refrigerant pipes 13A and 13D, the solenoid valve 21, and further enters the accumulator 12 via this refrigerant pipe 13C, where it is gas-liquid separated. After that, the circulation of sucking the gas refrigerant into the compressor 2 from the refrigerant pipe 13K is repeated. The air heated by the radiator 4 is blown out from the air outlet 29, so that the interior of the vehicle is heated.
 ヒートポンプコントローラ32は、車室内に吹き出される空気の目標温度(車室内に吹き出される空気の温度の目標値)である後述する目標吹出温度TAOから算出される目標ヒータ温度TCO(放熱器4の目標温度)から目標放熱器圧力PCOを算出し、この目標放熱器圧力PCOと、放熱器圧力センサ47が検出する放熱器圧力Pci(冷媒回路Rの高圧圧力)に基づいて圧縮機2の回転数を制御すると共に、放熱器出口温度センサ44が検出する放熱器4の冷媒出口温度Tci及び放熱器圧力センサ47が検出する放熱器圧力Pciに基づいて室外膨張弁6の弁開度を制御し、放熱器4の出口における冷媒の過冷却度を制御する。 The heat pump controller 32 calculates a target heater temperature TCO (of the radiator 4) calculated from a target outlet temperature TAO, which will be described later, which is a target temperature of air blown into the vehicle interior (a target value of the temperature of air blown into the vehicle interior). The target radiator pressure PCO is calculated from the target temperature), and the rotational speed of the compressor 2 is based on the target radiator pressure PCO and the radiator pressure Pci (high pressure of the refrigerant circuit R) detected by the radiator pressure sensor 47. And controlling the valve opening of the outdoor expansion valve 6 based on the refrigerant outlet temperature Tci of the radiator 4 detected by the radiator outlet temperature sensor 44 and the radiator pressure Pci detected by the radiator pressure sensor 47, The degree of supercooling of the refrigerant at the outlet of the radiator 4 is controlled.
 また、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は、必要とされる暖房能力に対して放熱器4による暖房能力(加熱能力)が不足する場合、この不足する分を補助ヒータ23の発熱で補完する。これにより、低外気温時等にも車室内を支障無く暖房する。 Further, when the heating capacity (heating capacity) of the radiator 4 is insufficient with respect to the required heating capacity, the heat pump controller 32 supplements the shortage with the heat generated by the auxiliary heater 23. As a result, the vehicle interior is heated without any trouble even when the outside temperature is low.
 (2)除湿暖房モード
 次に、図5を参照しながら除湿暖房モードについて説明する。図5は除湿暖房モードにおける冷媒回路Rの冷媒の流れ方(実線矢印)を示している。除湿暖房モードでは、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は電磁弁21、電磁弁22、電磁弁35を開き、電磁弁17、電磁弁20、電磁弁69は閉じる。そして、圧縮機2、及び、各送風機15、27を運転し、エアミックスダンパ28は室内送風機27から吹き出された空気が放熱器4及び補助ヒータ23に通風される割合を調整する状態とする。
(2) Dehumidification Heating Mode Next, the dehumidification heating mode will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 5 shows how the refrigerant flows in the refrigerant circuit R in the dehumidifying and heating mode (solid arrow). In the dehumidifying and heating mode, the heat pump controller 32 opens the solenoid valve 21, the solenoid valve 22, and the solenoid valve 35, and closes the solenoid valve 17, the solenoid valve 20, and the solenoid valve 69. Then, the compressor 2 and the blowers 15 and 27 are operated, and the air mix damper 28 adjusts the ratio of the air blown from the indoor blower 27 to the radiator 4 and the auxiliary heater 23.
 これにより、圧縮機2から吐出された高温高圧のガス冷媒は放熱器4に流入する。放熱器4には空気流通路3内の空気が通風されるので、空気流通路3内の空気は放熱器4内の高温冷媒と熱交換して加熱される。一方、放熱器4内の冷媒は空気に熱を奪われて冷却され、凝縮液化する。 With this, the high-temperature and high-pressure gas refrigerant discharged from the compressor 2 flows into the radiator 4. Since the air in the air flow passage 3 is ventilated through the radiator 4, the air in the air flow passage 3 is heated by exchanging heat with the high temperature refrigerant in the radiator 4. On the other hand, the refrigerant in the radiator 4 is cooled by being deprived of heat by the air and condensed and liquefied.
 放熱器4内で液化した冷媒は放熱器4を出た後、冷媒配管13Eを経て一部は冷媒配管13Jに入り、室外膨張弁6に至る。室外膨張弁6に流入した冷媒はそこで減圧された後、室外熱交換器7に流入する。室外熱交換器7に流入した冷媒は蒸発し、走行により、或いは、室外送風機15により通風される外気中から熱を汲み上げる(吸熱)。そして、室外熱交換器7を出た低温の冷媒は冷媒配管13A及び冷媒配管13D、電磁弁21を経て冷媒配管13Cに至り、この冷媒配管13Cを経てアキュムレータ12に入り、そこで気液分離された後、ガス冷媒が冷媒配管13Kから圧縮機2に吸い込まれる循環を繰り返す。 After the refrigerant liquefied in the radiator 4 exits the radiator 4, a part of it enters the refrigerant pipe 13J through the refrigerant pipe 13E and reaches the outdoor expansion valve 6. The refrigerant flowing into the outdoor expansion valve 6 is decompressed there, and then flows into the outdoor heat exchanger 7. The refrigerant that has flowed into the outdoor heat exchanger 7 evaporates and pumps up heat from the outside air that is ventilated by traveling or by the outdoor blower 15 (heat absorption). Then, the low-temperature refrigerant that has exited the outdoor heat exchanger 7 reaches the refrigerant pipe 13C via the refrigerant pipes 13A and 13D and the solenoid valve 21, enters the accumulator 12 via this refrigerant pipe 13C, and is separated into gas and liquid there. After that, the circulation in which the gas refrigerant is sucked into the compressor 2 from the refrigerant pipe 13K is repeated.
 一方、放熱器4を経て冷媒配管13Eを流れる凝縮冷媒の残りは分流され、この分流された冷媒が電磁弁22を経て冷媒配管13Fに流入し、冷媒配管13Bに至る。次に、冷媒は室内膨張弁8に至り、この室内膨張弁8にて減圧された後、電磁弁35を経て吸熱器9に流入し、蒸発する。このときに吸熱器9で生じる冷媒の吸熱作用で室内送風機27から吹き出された空気中の水分が吸熱器9に凝結して付着するので、空気は冷却され、且つ、除湿される。 On the other hand, the rest of the condensed refrigerant flowing through the radiator pipe 13E via the radiator 4 is diverted, and the diverted refrigerant flows into the refrigerant pipe 13F via the solenoid valve 22 and reaches the refrigerant pipe 13B. Next, the refrigerant reaches the indoor expansion valve 8, is decompressed by the indoor expansion valve 8, then flows into the heat absorber 9 through the electromagnetic valve 35, and evaporates. At this time, the water in the air blown from the indoor blower 27 is condensed and attached to the heat absorber 9 due to the heat absorbing action of the refrigerant generated in the heat absorber 9, so that the air is cooled and dehumidified.
 吸熱器9で蒸発した冷媒は、冷媒配管13Cに出て冷媒配管13Dからの冷媒(室外熱交換器7からの冷媒)と合流した後、アキュムレータ12を経て冷媒配管13Kから圧縮機2に吸い込まれる循環を繰り返す。吸熱器9にて除湿された空気は放熱器4や補助ヒータ23(発熱している場合)を通過する過程で再加熱されるので、これにより車室内の除湿暖房が行われることになる。 The refrigerant evaporated in the heat absorber 9 flows out to the refrigerant pipe 13C, joins the refrigerant from the refrigerant pipe 13D (refrigerant from the outdoor heat exchanger 7), and then is sucked into the compressor 2 from the refrigerant pipe 13K via the accumulator 12. Repeat the cycle. The air dehumidified by the heat absorber 9 is reheated in the process of passing through the radiator 4 and the auxiliary heater 23 (when heat is generated), so that dehumidification and heating of the vehicle interior is performed.
 ヒートポンプコントローラ32は、実施例では目標ヒータ温度TCOから算出される目標放熱器圧力PCOと放熱器圧力センサ47が検出する放熱器圧力Pci(冷媒回路Rの高圧圧力)に基づいて圧縮機2の回転数を制御するか、又は、吸熱器温度センサ48が検出する吸熱器9の温度(吸熱器温度Te)とその目標値である目標吸熱器温度TEOに基づいて圧縮機2の回転数を制御する。このとき、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は放熱器圧力Pciによるか吸熱器温度Teによるか、何れかの演算から得られる圧縮機目標回転数の低い方を選択して圧縮機2を制御する。また、吸熱器温度Teに基づいて室外膨張弁6の弁開度を制御する。 In the embodiment, the heat pump controller 32 rotates the compressor 2 based on the target radiator pressure PCO calculated from the target heater temperature TCO and the radiator pressure Pci (high pressure of the refrigerant circuit R) detected by the radiator pressure sensor 47. Number, or controls the number of revolutions of the compressor 2 based on the temperature of the heat absorber 9 (heat absorber temperature Te) detected by the heat absorber temperature sensor 48 and the target heat absorber temperature TEO which is its target value. .. At this time, the heat pump controller 32 controls the compressor 2 by selecting whichever of the radiator pressure Pci and the heat absorber temperature Te, whichever has the lower target compressor rotation speed obtained from the calculation. Further, the valve opening degree of the outdoor expansion valve 6 is controlled based on the heat absorber temperature Te.
 また、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は、この除湿暖房モードにおいても必要とされる暖房能力に対して放熱器4による暖房能力(加熱能力)が不足する場合、この不足する分を補助ヒータ23の発熱で補完する。これにより、低外気温時等にも車室内を支障無く除湿暖房する。 Further, when the heating capacity by the radiator 4 (heating capacity) is insufficient with respect to the heating capacity required also in the dehumidifying and heating mode, the heat pump controller 32 complements the shortage with the heat generated by the auxiliary heater 23. .. As a result, the vehicle interior is dehumidified and heated even when the outside temperature is low.
 (3)除湿冷房モード
 次に、図6を参照しながら除湿冷房モードについて説明する。図6は除湿冷房モードにおける冷媒回路Rの冷媒の流れ方(実線矢印)を示している。除湿冷房モードでは、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は電磁弁17、及び、電磁弁35を開き、電磁弁20、電磁弁21、電磁弁22、及び、電磁弁69を閉じる。そして、圧縮機2、及び、各送風機15、27を運転し、エアミックスダンパ28は室内送風機27から吹き出された空気が放熱器4及び補助ヒータ23に通風される割合を調整する状態とする。
(3) Dehumidifying and Cooling Mode Next, the dehumidifying and cooling mode will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 6 shows how the refrigerant flows in the refrigerant circuit R in the dehumidifying and cooling mode (solid arrow). In the dehumidifying and cooling mode, the heat pump controller 32 opens the solenoid valve 17 and the solenoid valve 35, and closes the solenoid valve 20, the solenoid valve 21, the solenoid valve 22, and the solenoid valve 69. Then, the compressor 2 and the blowers 15 and 27 are operated, and the air mix damper 28 adjusts the ratio of the air blown from the indoor blower 27 to the radiator 4 and the auxiliary heater 23.
 これにより、圧縮機2から吐出された高温高圧のガス冷媒は放熱器4に流入する。放熱器4には空気流通路3内の空気が通風されるので、空気流通路3内の空気は放熱器4内の高温冷媒と熱交換して加熱される。一方、放熱器4内の冷媒は空気に熱を奪われて冷却され、凝縮液化していく。 With this, the high-temperature and high-pressure gas refrigerant discharged from the compressor 2 flows into the radiator 4. Since the air in the air flow passage 3 is ventilated through the radiator 4, the air in the air flow passage 3 is heated by exchanging heat with the high temperature refrigerant in the radiator 4. On the other hand, the refrigerant in the radiator 4 is cooled by being deprived of heat by air, and is condensed and liquefied.
 放熱器4を出た冷媒は冷媒配管13E、13Jを経て室外膨張弁6に至り、暖房モードや除湿暖房モードよりも開き気味(大きい弁開度の領域)で制御される室外膨張弁6を経て室外熱交換器7に流入する。室外熱交換器7に流入した冷媒はそこで走行により、或いは、室外送風機15により通風される外気によって空冷され、凝縮する。室外熱交換器7を出た冷媒は冷媒配管13A、電磁弁17、レシーバドライヤ部14、過冷却部16を経て冷媒配管13Bに入り、逆止弁18を経て室内膨張弁8に至る。室内膨張弁8にて冷媒は減圧された後、電磁弁35を経て吸熱器9に流入し、蒸発する。このときの吸熱作用で室内送風機27から吹き出された空気中の水分が吸熱器9に凝結して付着し、空気は冷却され、且つ、除湿される。 The refrigerant exiting the radiator 4 reaches the outdoor expansion valve 6 via the refrigerant pipes 13E and 13J, and then passes through the outdoor expansion valve 6 controlled to open more (a region of a larger valve opening) than the heating mode or the dehumidifying and heating mode. It flows into the outdoor heat exchanger 7. The refrigerant that has flowed into the outdoor heat exchanger 7 is condensed by being cooled there by traveling or by the outside air ventilated by the outdoor blower 15. The refrigerant discharged from the outdoor heat exchanger 7 enters the refrigerant pipe 13B via the refrigerant pipe 13A, the electromagnetic valve 17, the receiver dryer unit 14, and the supercooling unit 16, and reaches the indoor expansion valve 8 via the check valve 18. The refrigerant is decompressed by the indoor expansion valve 8, then flows into the heat absorber 9 through the electromagnetic valve 35, and evaporates. Due to the heat absorbing action at this time, moisture in the air blown out from the indoor blower 27 is condensed and attached to the heat absorber 9, and the air is cooled and dehumidified.
 吸熱器9で蒸発した冷媒は、冷媒配管13Cを経てアキュムレータ12に至り、そこを経て冷媒配管13Kから圧縮機2に吸い込まれる循環を繰り返す。吸熱器9にて冷却され、除湿された空気は放熱器4や補助ヒータ23(発熱している場合)を通過する過程で再加熱(除湿暖房時よりも加熱能力は低い)されるので、これにより車室内の除湿冷房が行われることになる。 The refrigerant evaporated in the heat absorber 9 reaches the accumulator 12 via the refrigerant pipe 13C, and is repeatedly circulated by being sucked into the compressor 2 from the refrigerant pipe 13K via the refrigerant pipe 13C. The air cooled and dehumidified by the heat absorber 9 is reheated (has a lower heating capacity than that during dehumidification heating) in the process of passing through the radiator 4 and the auxiliary heater 23 (when heat is generated). As a result, the dehumidifying and cooling of the vehicle interior is performed.
 ヒートポンプコントローラ32は吸熱器温度センサ48が検出する吸熱器9の温度(吸熱器温度Te)と吸熱器9の目標温度(吸熱器温度Teの目標値)である目標吸熱器温度TEOに基づき、吸熱器温度Teを目標吸熱器温度TEOにするように圧縮機2の回転数を制御すると共に、放熱器圧力センサ47が検出する放熱器圧力Pci(冷媒回路Rの高圧圧力)と目標放熱器圧力PCO(放熱器圧力Pciの目標値)に基づき、放熱器圧力Pciを目標放熱器圧力PCOにするように室外膨張弁6の弁開度を制御することで放熱器4による必要なリヒート量(再加熱量)を得る。 The heat pump controller 32 absorbs heat based on the temperature of the heat absorber 9 (heat absorber temperature Te) detected by the heat absorber temperature sensor 48 and the target heat absorber temperature TEO which is the target temperature of the heat absorber 9 (target value of the heat absorber temperature Te). The rotation speed of the compressor 2 is controlled so that the device temperature Te becomes the target heat absorber temperature TEO, and the radiator pressure Pci (high pressure of the refrigerant circuit R) detected by the radiator pressure sensor 47 and the target radiator pressure PCO. Based on (the target value of the radiator pressure Pci), by controlling the valve opening of the outdoor expansion valve 6 so that the radiator pressure Pci becomes the target radiator pressure PCO, the reheat amount required by the radiator 4 (reheating) Amount).
 また、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は、この除湿冷房モードにおいても必要とされる暖房能力に対して放熱器4による暖房能力(再加熱能力)が不足する場合、この不足する分を補助ヒータ23の発熱で補完する。これにより、車室内の温度を下げ過ぎること無く、除湿冷房する。 Further, when the heating capacity (reheating capacity) by the radiator 4 is insufficient with respect to the heating capacity required also in the dehumidifying and cooling mode, the heat pump controller 32 supplements the shortage with the heat generated by the auxiliary heater 23. To do. As a result, dehumidifying and cooling are performed without excessively reducing the temperature inside the vehicle compartment.
 (4)冷房モード
 次に、図7を参照しながら冷房モードについて説明する。図7は冷房モードにおける冷媒回路Rの冷媒の流れ方(実線矢印)を示している。冷房モードでは、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は電磁弁17、電磁弁20、及び、電磁弁35を開き、電磁弁21、電磁弁22、及び、電磁弁69を閉じる。そして、圧縮機2、及び、各送風機15、27を運転し、エアミックスダンパ28は室内送風機27から吹き出された空気が放熱器4及び補助ヒータ23に通風される割合を調整する状態とする。尚、補助ヒータ23には通電されない。
(4) Cooling Mode Next, the cooling mode will be described with reference to FIG. 7. FIG. 7 shows how the refrigerant flows in the refrigerant circuit R in the cooling mode (solid arrow). In the cooling mode, the heat pump controller 32 opens the solenoid valve 17, the solenoid valve 20, and the solenoid valve 35, and closes the solenoid valve 21, the solenoid valve 22, and the solenoid valve 69. Then, the compressor 2 and the blowers 15 and 27 are operated, and the air mix damper 28 adjusts the ratio of the air blown from the indoor blower 27 to the radiator 4 and the auxiliary heater 23. The auxiliary heater 23 is not energized.
 これにより、圧縮機2から吐出された高温高圧のガス冷媒は放熱器4に流入する。放熱器4には空気流通路3内の空気は通風されるものの、その割合は小さくなるので(冷房時のリヒート(再加熱)のみのため)、ここは殆ど通過するのみとなり、放熱器4を出た冷媒は冷媒配管13Eを経て冷媒配管13Jに至る。このとき電磁弁20は開放されているので冷媒は電磁弁20を通過し、そのまま室外熱交換器7に流入し、そこで走行により、或いは、室外送風機15により通風される外気によって空冷され、凝縮液化する。 With this, the high-temperature and high-pressure gas refrigerant discharged from the compressor 2 flows into the radiator 4. Although the air in the airflow passage 3 is ventilated through the radiator 4, since the proportion thereof is small (only for reheating (reheating) during cooling), it almost only passes through here, and the radiator 4 The discharged refrigerant reaches the refrigerant pipe 13J through the refrigerant pipe 13E. At this time, since the electromagnetic valve 20 is opened, the refrigerant passes through the electromagnetic valve 20 and flows into the outdoor heat exchanger 7 as it is, and is cooled by the traveling air or the outside air ventilated by the outdoor blower 15 to be condensed and liquefied. To do.
 室外熱交換器7を出た冷媒は冷媒配管13A、電磁弁17、レシーバドライヤ部14、過冷却部16を経て冷媒配管13Bに入り、逆止弁18を経て室内膨張弁8に至る。室内膨張弁8にて冷媒は減圧された後、電磁弁35を経て吸熱器9に流入し、蒸発する。このときの吸熱作用で室内送風機27から吹き出されて吸熱器9と熱交換する空気は冷却される。 The refrigerant discharged from the outdoor heat exchanger 7 enters the refrigerant pipe 13B via the refrigerant pipe 13A, the solenoid valve 17, the receiver dryer unit 14, and the supercooling unit 16, and reaches the indoor expansion valve 8 via the check valve 18. The refrigerant is decompressed by the indoor expansion valve 8, then flows into the heat absorber 9 through the electromagnetic valve 35, and evaporates. Due to the heat absorbing action at this time, the air blown out from the indoor blower 27 and exchanging heat with the heat absorber 9 is cooled.
 吸熱器9で蒸発した冷媒は、冷媒配管13Cを経てアキュムレータ12に至り、そこから冷媒配管13Kを経て圧縮機2に吸い込まれる循環を繰り返す。吸熱器9にて冷却された空気は吹出口29から車室内に吹き出されるので、これにより車室内の冷房が行われることになる。この冷房モードにおいては、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は吸熱器温度センサ48が検出する吸熱器9の温度(吸熱器温度Te)に基づいて圧縮機2の回転数を制御する。 The refrigerant evaporated in the heat absorber 9 reaches the accumulator 12 via the refrigerant pipe 13C, and is sucked into the compressor 2 via the refrigerant pipe 13K. The air cooled by the heat absorber 9 is blown into the vehicle interior from the air outlet 29, so that the vehicle interior is cooled. In this cooling mode, the heat pump controller 32 controls the rotation speed of the compressor 2 based on the temperature of the heat absorber 9 (heat absorber temperature Te) detected by the heat absorber temperature sensor 48.
 (5)空調(優先)+バッテリ冷却モード
 次に、図8を参照しながら空調(優先)+バッテリ冷却モードについて説明する。図8は空調(優先)+バッテリ冷却モードにおける冷媒回路Rの冷媒の流れ方(実線矢印)を示している。空調(優先)+バッテリ冷却モードでは、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は電磁弁17、電磁弁20、電磁弁35、及び、電磁弁69を開き、電磁弁21、及び、電磁弁22を閉じる。
(5) Air Conditioning (Priority)+Battery Cooling Mode Next, the air conditioning (priority)+battery cooling mode will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 8 shows how the refrigerant flows in the refrigerant circuit R (solid arrow) in the air conditioning (priority)+battery cooling mode. In the air conditioning (priority)+battery cooling mode, the heat pump controller 32 opens the solenoid valve 17, the solenoid valve 20, the solenoid valve 35, and the solenoid valve 69, and closes the solenoid valves 21 and 22.
 そして、圧縮機2、及び、各送風機15、27を運転し、エアミックスダンパ28は室内送風機27から吹き出された空気が放熱器4及び補助ヒータ23に通風される割合を調整する状態とする。尚、この運転モードでは補助ヒータ23には通電されない。また、熱媒体加熱ヒータ63にも通電されない。 Then, the compressor 2 and each of the blowers 15 and 27 are operated, and the air mix damper 28 adjusts the ratio of the air blown from the indoor blower 27 to the radiator 4 and the auxiliary heater 23. Incidentally, the auxiliary heater 23 is not energized in this operation mode. Also, the heat medium heater 63 is not energized.
 これにより、圧縮機2から吐出された高温高圧のガス冷媒は放熱器4に流入する。放熱器4には空気流通路3内の空気は通風されるものの、その割合は小さくなるので(冷房時のリヒート(再加熱)のみのため)、ここは殆ど通過するのみとなり、放熱器4を出た冷媒は冷媒配管13Eを経て冷媒配管13Jに至る。このとき電磁弁20は開放されているので冷媒は電磁弁20を通過し、そのまま室外熱交換器7に流入し、そこで走行により、或いは、室外送風機15により通風される外気によって空冷され、凝縮液化する。 With this, the high-temperature and high-pressure gas refrigerant discharged from the compressor 2 flows into the radiator 4. Although the air in the airflow passage 3 is ventilated through the radiator 4, since the proportion thereof is small (only for reheating (reheating) during cooling), it almost only passes through here, and the radiator 4 The discharged refrigerant reaches the refrigerant pipe 13J through the refrigerant pipe 13E. At this time, since the electromagnetic valve 20 is opened, the refrigerant passes through the electromagnetic valve 20 and flows into the outdoor heat exchanger 7 as it is, and is cooled by the traveling air or the outside air ventilated by the outdoor blower 15 to be condensed and liquefied. To do.
 室外熱交換器7を出た冷媒は冷媒配管13A、電磁弁17、レシーバドライヤ部14、過冷却部16を経て冷媒配管13Bに入る。この冷媒配管13Bに流入した冷媒は、逆止弁18を経た後に分流され、一方はそのまま冷媒配管13Bを流れて室内膨張弁8に至る。この室内膨張弁8に流入した冷媒はそこで減圧された後、電磁弁35を経て吸熱器9に流入し、蒸発する。このときの吸熱作用で室内送風機27から吹き出されて吸熱器9と熱交換する空気は冷却される。 The refrigerant exiting the outdoor heat exchanger 7 enters the refrigerant pipe 13B through the refrigerant pipe 13A, the solenoid valve 17, the receiver dryer unit 14, and the supercooling unit 16. The refrigerant flowing into the refrigerant pipe 13B is split after passing through the check valve 18, and one of the refrigerant flows through the refrigerant pipe 13B as it is to reach the indoor expansion valve 8. The refrigerant flowing into the indoor expansion valve 8 is decompressed there, then flows into the heat absorber 9 through the electromagnetic valve 35, and evaporates. Due to the heat absorbing action at this time, the air blown out from the indoor blower 27 and exchanging heat with the heat absorber 9 is cooled.
 吸熱器9で蒸発した冷媒は、冷媒配管13Cを経てアキュムレータ12に至り、そこから冷媒配管13Kを経て圧縮機2に吸い込まれる循環を繰り返す。吸熱器9にて冷却された空気は吹出口29から車室内に吹き出されるので、これにより車室内の冷房が行われることになる。 The refrigerant evaporated in the heat absorber 9 reaches the accumulator 12 via the refrigerant pipe 13C, and is sucked into the compressor 2 via the refrigerant pipe 13K. The air cooled by the heat absorber 9 is blown into the vehicle interior from the air outlet 29, so that the vehicle interior is cooled.
 他方、逆止弁18を経た冷媒の残りは分流され、分岐配管67に流入して補助膨張弁68に至る。ここで冷媒は減圧された後、電磁弁69を経て冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64の冷媒流路64Bに流入し、そこで蒸発する。このときに吸熱作用を発揮する。この冷媒流路64Bで蒸発した冷媒は、冷媒配管71、冷媒配管13C及びアキュムレータ12を順次経て冷媒配管13Kから圧縮機2に吸い込まれる循環を繰り返す(図8に実線矢印で示す)。 On the other hand, the rest of the refrigerant that has passed through the check valve 18 is split, flows into the branch pipe 67, and reaches the auxiliary expansion valve 68. Here, the refrigerant is decompressed, then flows into the refrigerant channel 64B of the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 via the electromagnetic valve 69, and evaporates there. At this time, it exerts an endothermic effect. The refrigerant evaporated in the refrigerant flow path 64B repeats the circulation in which the refrigerant is sucked into the compressor 2 from the refrigerant pipe 13K through the refrigerant pipe 71, the refrigerant pipe 13C and the accumulator 12 in sequence (indicated by a solid arrow in FIG. 8).
 一方、循環ポンプ62が運転されているので、この循環ポンプ62から吐出された熱媒体が熱媒体配管66内を冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64の熱媒体流路64Aに至り、そこで冷媒流路64B内で蒸発する冷媒と熱交換し、吸熱されて熱媒体は冷却される。この冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64の熱媒体流路64Aを出た熱媒体は、熱媒体加熱ヒータ63に至る。但し、この運転モードでは熱媒体加熱ヒータ63は発熱されないので、熱媒体はそのまま通過してバッテリ55に至り、当該バッテリ55と熱交換する。これにより、バッテリ55は冷却されると共に、バッテリ55を冷却した後の熱媒体は、循環ポンプ62に吸い込まれる循環を繰り返す(図8に破線矢印で示す)。 On the other hand, since the circulation pump 62 is operating, the heat medium discharged from the circulation pump 62 reaches the heat medium flow passage 64A of the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 in the heat medium pipe 66, and the refrigerant flow passage is there. The heat medium exchanges heat with the refrigerant that evaporates in 64B and absorbs heat to cool the heat medium. The heat medium exiting the heat medium flow path 64A of the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 reaches the heat medium heater 63. However, since the heat medium heater 63 does not generate heat in this operation mode, the heat medium passes through as it is to the battery 55 and exchanges heat with the battery 55. As a result, the battery 55 is cooled, and the heat medium after cooling the battery 55 is repeatedly circulated by being sucked into the circulation pump 62 (indicated by a dashed arrow in FIG. 8 ).
 この空調(優先)+バッテリ冷却モードにおいては、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は電磁弁35を開いた状態を維持し、吸熱器温度センサ48が検出する吸熱器9の温度(吸熱器温度Te)に基づいて後述する図12に示す如く圧縮機2の回転数を制御する。また、実施例では熱媒体温度センサ76が検出する熱媒体の温度(熱媒体温度Tw:バッテリコントローラ73から送信される)に基づき、電磁弁69を以下の如く開閉制御する。 In this air conditioning (priority)+battery cooling mode, the heat pump controller 32 maintains the electromagnetic valve 35 in an open state, and will be described later based on the temperature of the heat absorber 9 (heat absorber temperature Te) detected by the heat absorber temperature sensor 48. The rotation speed of the compressor 2 is controlled as shown in FIG. In the embodiment, the solenoid valve 69 is controlled to open/close as follows based on the temperature of the heat medium detected by the heat medium temperature sensor 76 (heat medium temperature Tw: transmitted from the battery controller 73).
 尚、熱媒体温度Twは、実施例における冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64(被温調対象用熱交換器)により冷却される対象(熱媒体)の温度として採用しているが、被温調対象であるバッテリ55の温度を示す指標でもある(以下、同じ)。 The heat medium temperature Tw is adopted as the temperature of the object (heat medium) cooled by the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 (heat exchanger for temperature adjustment) in the embodiment, but the temperature adjustment is performed. It is also an index showing the temperature of the target battery 55 (hereinafter the same).
 図13はこの空調(優先)+バッテリ冷却モードにおける電磁弁69の開閉制御のブロック図を示している。ヒートポンプコントローラ32の被温調対象用電磁弁制御部90には熱媒体温度センサ76が検出する熱媒体温度Twと、当該熱媒体温度Twの目標値としての所定の目標熱媒体温度TWOが入力される。そして、被温調対象用電磁弁制御部90は、目標熱媒体温度TWOの上下に所定の温度差を有して上限値TwULと下限値TwLLを設定し、電磁弁69を閉じている状態からバッテリ55の発熱等により熱媒体温度Twが高くなり、上限値TwULまで上昇した場合(上限値TwULを上回った場合、又は、上限値TwUL以上となった場合。以下、同じ)、電磁弁69を開放する(電磁弁69開指示)。これにより、冷媒は冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64の冷媒流路64Bに流入して蒸発し、熱媒体流路64Aを流れる熱媒体を冷却するので、この冷却された熱媒体によりバッテリ55は冷却される。 FIG. 13 shows a block diagram of opening/closing control of the solenoid valve 69 in this air conditioning (priority)+battery cooling mode. The heat medium temperature Tw detected by the heat medium temperature sensor 76 and a predetermined target heat medium temperature TWO as a target value of the heat medium temperature Tw are input to the temperature controlled target electromagnetic valve control unit 90 of the heat pump controller 32. It Then, the temperature controlled object solenoid valve control unit 90 sets the upper limit value TwUL and the lower limit value TwLL with a predetermined temperature difference above and below the target heat medium temperature TWO, and closes the solenoid valve 69. When the heat medium temperature Tw becomes high due to heat generation of the battery 55 and rises to the upper limit value TwUL (when it exceeds the upper limit value TwUL or becomes equal to or higher than the upper limit value TwUL. The same applies hereinafter), the solenoid valve 69 is turned on. Open (instruction to open solenoid valve 69). As a result, the refrigerant flows into the refrigerant channel 64B of the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 and evaporates to cool the heat medium flowing through the heat medium channel 64A, so that the battery 55 is cooled by the cooled heat medium. To be done.
 その後、熱媒体温度Twが下限値TwLLまで低下した場合(下限値TwLLを下回った場合、又は、下限値TwLL以下となった場合。以下、同じ)、電磁弁69を閉じる(電磁弁69閉指示)。以後、このような電磁弁69の開閉を繰り返して、車室内の冷房を優先しながら、熱媒体温度Twを目標熱媒体温度TWOに制御し、バッテリ55の冷却を行う。このようにして、車室内の空調(冷房)を優先的に行いながら、機器温度調整装置61の冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64により熱媒体を介してバッテリ55の冷却も行うことができるようになる。 After that, when the heat medium temperature Tw falls to the lower limit value TwLL (when it falls below the lower limit value TwLL or becomes equal to or lower than the lower limit value TwLL. The same applies hereinafter), the solenoid valve 69 is closed (the solenoid valve 69 closing instruction). ). After that, the solenoid valve 69 is repeatedly opened and closed as described above to control the heat medium temperature Tw to the target heat medium temperature TWO while prioritizing the cooling of the vehicle compartment, and the battery 55 is cooled. In this way, it is possible to cool the battery 55 via the heat medium by the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 of the device temperature adjusting device 61 while preferentially performing the air conditioning (cooling) of the vehicle interior. Become.
 (6)空調運転の切り換え
 ヒートポンプコントローラ32は下記式(I)から前述した目標吹出温度TAOを算出する。この目標吹出温度TAOは、吹出口29から車室内に吹き出される空気の温度の目標値である。
 TAO=(Tset-Tin)×K+Tbal(f(Tset、SUN、Tam))
                                   ・・(I)
 ここで、Tsetは空調操作部53で設定された車室内の設定温度、Tinは内気温度センサ37が検出する車室内空気の温度、Kは係数、Tbalは設定温度Tsetや、日射センサ51が検出する日射量SUN、外気温度センサ33が検出する外気温度Tamから算出されるバランス値である。そして、一般的に、この目標吹出温度TAOは外気温度Tamが低い程高く、外気温度Tamが上昇するに伴って低下する。
(6) Switching of air conditioning operation The heat pump controller 32 calculates the above-mentioned target outlet temperature TAO from the following formula (I). This target outlet temperature TAO is a target value of the temperature of the air blown into the vehicle compartment from the outlet 29.
TAO=(Tset-Tin)×K+Tbal(f(Tset, SUN, Tam))
..(I)
Here, Tset is the set temperature in the vehicle compartment set by the air conditioning operation unit 53, Tin is the temperature of the vehicle interior air detected by the inside air temperature sensor 37, K is a coefficient, Tbal is the set temperature Tset, and the solar radiation sensor 51 detects the temperature. It is a balance value calculated from the amount of solar radiation SUN to be performed and the outside air temperature Tam detected by the outside air temperature sensor 33. Then, in general, the target outlet temperature TAO is higher as the outside air temperature Tam is lower, and is decreased as the outside air temperature Tam is increased.
 そして、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は起動時には外気温度センサ33が検出する外気温度Tamと目標吹出温度TAOとに基づいて上記各空調運転のうちの何れかの空調運転を選択する。また、起動後は外気温度Tamや目標吹出温度TAO、熱媒体温度Tw等の運転条件や環境条件、設定条件の変化に応じ、前記各空調運転を選択して切り換えていく。例えば、冷房モードから空調(優先)+バッテリ冷却モードへの移行は、バッテリコントローラ73からのバッテリ冷却要求が入力されたことに基づいて実行される。この場合、バッテリコントローラ73は例えば熱媒体温度Twやバッテリ温度Tcellが所定値以上に上昇した場合にバッテリ冷却要求を出力し、ヒートポンプコントローラ32や空調コントローラ45に送信するものである。 Then, the heat pump controller 32 selects one of the above air conditioning operations based on the outside air temperature Tam detected by the outside air temperature sensor 33 and the target outlet temperature TAO at the time of startup. Further, after the startup, each of the air conditioning operations is selected and switched according to changes in operating conditions such as the outside air temperature Tam, the target outlet temperature TAO, and the heat medium temperature Tw, environmental conditions, and setting conditions. For example, the transition from the cooling mode to the air conditioning (priority)+battery cooling mode is executed based on the input of a battery cooling request from the battery controller 73. In this case, the battery controller 73 outputs a battery cooling request and sends it to the heat pump controller 32 and the air conditioning controller 45, for example, when the heat medium temperature Tw or the battery temperature Tcell rises above a predetermined value.
 (7)バッテリ冷却(優先)+空調モード(被温調対象冷却モード:被温調対象冷却(優先)+空調モード)
 次に、バッテリ55の充電中の動作について説明する。例えば急速充電器(外部電源)の充電用のプラグが接続され、バッテリ55が充電されているときに(これらの情報はバッテリコントローラ73から送信される)、車両のイグニッション(IGN)のON/OFFに拘わらず、バッテリ冷却要求があり、空調操作部53の空調スイッチがONされた場合、ヒートポンプコントローラ32はバッテリ冷却(優先)+空調モードを実行する。このバッテリ冷却(優先)+空調モードにおける冷媒回路Rの冷媒の流れ方は、図8に示した空調(優先)+バッテリ冷却モードの場合と同様である。
(7) Battery cooling (priority) + air conditioning mode (cooling target cooling mode: cooling target cooling (priority) + air conditioning mode)
Next, the operation during charging of the battery 55 will be described. For example, when the plug for charging a quick charger (external power source) is connected and the battery 55 is being charged (these information is transmitted from the battery controller 73), the ignition (IGN) of the vehicle is turned on/off. Regardless of the above, if there is a battery cooling request and the air conditioning switch of the air conditioning operation unit 53 is turned on, the heat pump controller 32 executes battery cooling (priority)+air conditioning mode. The way the refrigerant flows in the refrigerant circuit R in the battery cooling (priority)+air conditioning mode is the same as in the air conditioning (priority)+battery cooling mode shown in FIG.
 但し、このバッテリ冷却(優先)+空調モードの場合、実施例ではヒートポンプコントローラ32は電磁弁69を開いた状態に維持し、熱媒体温度センサ76(バッテリコントローラ73から送信される)が検出する熱媒体温度Twに基づいて後述する図14に示す如く圧縮機2の回転数を制御する。また、実施例では吸熱器温度センサ48が検出する吸熱器9の温度(吸熱器温度Te)に基づき、電磁弁35を以下の如く開閉制御する。 However, in the case of this battery cooling (priority)+air conditioning mode, in the embodiment, the heat pump controller 32 keeps the electromagnetic valve 69 open, and the heat detected by the heat medium temperature sensor 76 (transmitted from the battery controller 73) is detected. Based on the medium temperature Tw, the rotational speed of the compressor 2 is controlled as shown in FIG. 14 described later. In the embodiment, the solenoid valve 35 is controlled to open and close as follows based on the temperature of the heat absorber 9 (heat absorber temperature Te) detected by the heat absorber temperature sensor 48.
 図15はこのバッテリ冷却(優先)+空調モードにおける電磁弁35の開閉制御のブロック図を示している。ヒートポンプコントローラ32の吸熱器用電磁弁制御部95には吸熱器温度センサ48が検出する吸熱器温度Teと、当該吸熱器温度Teの目標値としての所定の目標吸熱器温度TEOが入力される。そして、吸熱器用電磁弁制御部95は、目標吸熱器温度TEOの上下に所定の温度差を有して上限値TeULと下限値TeLLを設定し、電磁弁35を閉じている状態から吸熱器温度Teが高くなり、上限値TeULまで上昇した場合(上限値TeULを上回った場合、又は、上限値TeUL以上となった場合。以下、同じ)、電磁弁35を開放する(電磁弁35開指示)。これにより、冷媒は吸熱器9に流入して蒸発し、空気流通路3を流通する空気を冷却する。 FIG. 15 shows a block diagram of opening/closing control of the solenoid valve 35 in this battery cooling (priority)+air conditioning mode. The heat absorber electromagnetic valve control unit 95 of the heat pump controller 32 is input with the heat absorber temperature Te detected by the heat absorber temperature sensor 48 and a predetermined target heat absorber temperature TEO as a target value of the heat absorber temperature Te. Then, the heat absorber electromagnetic valve control unit 95 sets the upper limit value TeUL and the lower limit value TeLL with a predetermined temperature difference above and below the target heat absorber temperature TEO, and sets the heat absorber temperature from the state in which the solenoid valve 35 is closed. When Te rises and rises to the upper limit value TeUL (when it exceeds the upper limit value TeUL or when it becomes equal to or higher than the upper limit value TeUL. The same applies hereinafter), the solenoid valve 35 is opened (instruction to open the solenoid valve 35). .. As a result, the refrigerant flows into the heat absorber 9 and evaporates to cool the air flowing through the air flow passage 3.
 その後、吸熱器温度Teが下限値TeLLまで低下した場合(下限値TeLLを下回った場合、又は、下限値TeLL以下となった場合。以下、同じ)、電磁弁35を閉じる(電磁弁35閉指示)。以後、このような電磁弁35の開閉を繰り返して、バッテリ55の冷却を優先しながら、吸熱器温度Teを目標吸熱器温度TEOに制御し、車室内の冷房を行う。このようにして、機器温度調整装置61の冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64により熱媒体を介してバッテリ55の冷却を優先的に行いながら、車室内の空調(冷房)も行うことができるようになる。 After that, when the heat absorber temperature Te decreases to the lower limit value TeLL (when it falls below the lower limit value TeLL or becomes equal to or lower than the lower limit value TeLL. The same applies hereinafter), the solenoid valve 35 is closed (the solenoid valve 35 closing instruction). ). Thereafter, such opening/closing of the electromagnetic valve 35 is repeated to give priority to the cooling of the battery 55, and the heat absorber temperature Te is controlled to the target heat absorber temperature TEO to cool the vehicle interior. In this manner, the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 of the device temperature adjusting device 61 can preferentially cool the battery 55 via the heat medium while also performing the air conditioning (cooling) of the vehicle interior. Become.
 (8)バッテリ冷却(単独)モード(被温調対象冷却モード:被温調対象冷却(単独)モード)
 次に、イグニッションのON/OFFに拘わらず、空調操作部53の空調スイッチがOFFされた状態で、急速充電器の充電用のプラグが接続され、バッテリ55が充電されているとき、バッテリ冷却要求があった場合、ヒートポンプコントローラ32はバッテリ冷却(単独)モードを実行する。但し、バッテリ55の充電中以外にも、空調スイッチがOFFで、バッテリ冷却要求があった場合(高外気温で走行時等)には実行される。図9はこのバッテリ冷却(単独)モードにおける冷媒回路Rの冷媒の流れ方(実線矢印)を示している。バッテリ冷却(単独)モードでは、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は電磁弁17、電磁弁20、及び、電磁弁69を開き、電磁弁21、電磁弁22、及び、電磁弁35を閉じる。
(8) Battery cooling (independent) mode (Cooling target cooling mode: Cooling target cooling (single) mode)
Next, regardless of whether the ignition is ON or OFF, when the air conditioning switch of the air conditioning operation unit 53 is OFF, the charging plug of the quick charger is connected, and the battery 55 is charged, the battery cooling request is issued. If there is, the heat pump controller 32 executes the battery cooling (single) mode. However, it is executed when the air conditioning switch is OFF and there is a battery cooling request (eg, when traveling at a high outside air temperature) other than during charging of the battery 55. FIG. 9 shows how the refrigerant flows in the refrigerant circuit R (solid arrow) in the battery cooling (single) mode. In the battery cooling (single) mode, the heat pump controller 32 opens the solenoid valve 17, the solenoid valve 20, and the solenoid valve 69, and closes the solenoid valve 21, the solenoid valve 22, and the solenoid valve 35.
 そして、圧縮機2、及び、室外送風機15を運転する。尚、室内送風機27は運転されず、補助ヒータ23にも通電されない。また、この運転モードでは熱媒体加熱ヒータ63も通電されない。 Then, the compressor 2 and the outdoor blower 15 are operated. The indoor blower 27 is not operated and the auxiliary heater 23 is not energized. Further, the heat medium heater 63 is not energized in this operation mode.
 これにより、圧縮機2から吐出された高温高圧のガス冷媒は放熱器4に流入する。放熱器4には空気流通路3内の空気は通風されないので、ここは通過するのみとなり、放熱器4を出た冷媒は冷媒配管13Eを経て冷媒配管13Jに至る。このとき、電磁弁20は開放されているので冷媒は電磁弁20を通過し、そのまま室外熱交換器7に流入し、そこで室外送風機15により通風される外気によって空冷され、凝縮液化する。 With this, the high-temperature and high-pressure gas refrigerant discharged from the compressor 2 flows into the radiator 4. Since the air in the air flow passage 3 is not ventilated to the radiator 4, it passes only here, and the refrigerant exiting the radiator 4 reaches the refrigerant pipe 13J via the refrigerant pipe 13E. At this time, since the electromagnetic valve 20 is open, the refrigerant passes through the electromagnetic valve 20, flows into the outdoor heat exchanger 7 as it is, and is cooled by air by the outside air ventilated by the outdoor blower 15 to be condensed and liquefied.
 室外熱交換器7を出た冷媒は冷媒配管13A、電磁弁17、レシーバドライヤ部14、過冷却部16を経て冷媒配管13Bに入る。この冷媒配管13Bに流入した冷媒は、逆止弁18を経た後、全てが分岐配管67に流入して補助膨張弁68に至る。ここで冷媒は減圧された後、電磁弁69を経て冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64の冷媒流路64Bに流入し、そこで蒸発する。このときに吸熱作用を発揮する。この冷媒流路64Bで蒸発した冷媒は、冷媒配管71、冷媒配管13C及びアキュムレータ12を順次経て冷媒配管13Kから圧縮機2に吸い込まれる循環を繰り返す(図9に実線矢印で示す)。 The refrigerant exiting the outdoor heat exchanger 7 enters the refrigerant pipe 13B through the refrigerant pipe 13A, the solenoid valve 17, the receiver dryer unit 14, and the supercooling unit 16. After passing through the check valve 18, all of the refrigerant flowing into the refrigerant pipe 13B flows into the branch pipe 67 and reaches the auxiliary expansion valve 68. Here, the refrigerant is decompressed, then flows into the refrigerant channel 64B of the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 via the electromagnetic valve 69, and evaporates there. At this time, it exerts an endothermic effect. The refrigerant evaporated in the refrigerant flow path 64B repeats the circulation in which the refrigerant is sucked into the compressor 2 from the refrigerant pipe 13K through the refrigerant pipe 71, the refrigerant pipe 13C and the accumulator 12 in sequence (shown by a solid arrow in FIG. 9).
 一方、循環ポンプ62が運転されているので、この循環ポンプ62から吐出された熱媒体が熱媒体配管66内を冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64の熱媒体流路64Aに至り、そこで冷媒流路64B内で蒸発する冷媒により吸熱され、熱媒体は冷却されるようになる。この冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64の熱媒体流路64Aを出た熱媒体は、熱媒体加熱ヒータ63に至る。但し、この運転モードでは熱媒体加熱ヒータ63は発熱されないので、熱媒体はそのまま通過してバッテリ55に至り、当該バッテリ55と熱交換する。これにより、バッテリ55は冷却されると共に、バッテリ55を冷却した後の熱媒体は、循環ポンプ62に吸い込まれる循環を繰り返す(図9に破線矢印で示す)。 On the other hand, since the circulation pump 62 is operating, the heat medium discharged from the circulation pump 62 reaches the heat medium flow passage 64A of the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 in the heat medium pipe 66, and the refrigerant flow passage is there. The heat medium is cooled by being absorbed by the refrigerant evaporated in 64B. The heat medium exiting the heat medium flow path 64A of the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 reaches the heat medium heater 63. However, since the heat medium heater 63 does not generate heat in this operation mode, the heat medium passes through as it is to the battery 55 and exchanges heat with the battery 55. As a result, the battery 55 is cooled, and the heat medium after cooling the battery 55 is repeatedly circulated by being sucked into the circulation pump 62 (shown by a dashed arrow in FIG. 9 ).
 このバッテリ冷却(単独)モードにおいても、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は熱媒体温度センサ76が検出する熱媒体温度Twに基づいて後述する如く圧縮機2の回転数を制御することにより、バッテリ55を冷却する。このようにして、車室内を空調する必要が無い場合には、バッテリ55の冷却のみを効果的に行うことができるようになる。 Even in this battery cooling (single) mode, the heat pump controller 32 cools the battery 55 by controlling the rotation speed of the compressor 2 as described later based on the heat medium temperature Tw detected by the heat medium temperature sensor 76. In this way, only the battery 55 can be effectively cooled when it is not necessary to air-condition the vehicle interior.
 (9)除霜モード
 次に、図10を参照しながら室外熱交換器7の除霜モードについて説明する。図10は除霜モードにおける冷媒回路Rの冷媒の流れ方(実線矢印)を示している。前述した如く暖房モードでは、室外熱交換器7では冷媒が蒸発し、外気から吸熱して低温となるため、室外熱交換器7には外気中の水分が霜となって付着する。
(9) Defrost Mode Next, the defrost mode of the outdoor heat exchanger 7 will be described with reference to FIG. 10. FIG. 10 shows how the refrigerant flows in the refrigerant circuit R in the defrosting mode (solid arrow). As described above, in the heating mode, the refrigerant evaporates in the outdoor heat exchanger 7 and absorbs heat from the outside air to reach a low temperature, so that the moisture in the outside air adheres to the outside heat exchanger 7 as frost.
 そこで、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は室外熱交換器温度センサ49が検出する室外熱交換器温度TXO(室外熱交換器7における冷媒蒸発温度)と、室外熱交換器7の無着霜時における冷媒蒸発温度TXObaseとの差ΔTXO(=TXObase-TXO)を算出しており、室外熱交換器温度TXOが無着霜時における冷媒蒸発温度TXObaseより低下して、その差ΔTXOが所定値以上に拡大した状態が所定時間継続した場合、室外熱交換器7に着霜しているものと判定して所定の着霜フラグをセットする。 Therefore, the heat pump controller 32 detects the outdoor heat exchanger temperature TXO detected by the outdoor heat exchanger temperature sensor 49 (refrigerant evaporation temperature in the outdoor heat exchanger 7) and the refrigerant evaporation temperature TXObase when the outdoor heat exchanger 7 is not frosted. And the difference ΔTXO (=TXObase-TXO) is calculated, and the condition in which the outdoor heat exchanger temperature TXO is lower than the refrigerant evaporation temperature TXObase in the non-frosting state and the difference ΔTXO expands to a predetermined value or more is predetermined. When the time has continued, it is determined that the outdoor heat exchanger 7 is frosted, and a predetermined frosting flag is set.
 そして、この着霜フラグがセットされており、空調操作部53の空調スイッチがOFFされた状態で、急速充電器の充電用のプラグが接続され、バッテリ55が充電されるとき、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は以下の如く室外熱交換器7の除霜モードを実行する。 When the frost flag is set and the air conditioning switch of the air conditioning operation unit 53 is turned off, the charging plug of the quick charger is connected and the battery 55 is charged, the heat pump controller 32 The defrosting mode of the outdoor heat exchanger 7 is executed as follows.
 ヒートポンプコントローラ32はこの除霜モードでは、冷媒回路Rを前述した暖房モードの状態とした上で、室外膨張弁6の弁開度を全開とする。そして、圧縮機2を運転し、当該圧縮機2から吐出された高温の冷媒を放熱器4、室外膨張弁6を経て室外熱交換器7に流入させ、当該室外熱交換器7の着霜を融解させる(図10)。そして、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は室外熱交換器温度センサ49が検出する室外熱交換器温度TXOが所定の除霜終了温度(例えば、+3℃等)より高くなった場合、室外熱交換器7の除霜が完了したものとして除霜モードを終了する。 In this defrosting mode, the heat pump controller 32 puts the refrigerant circuit R into the heating mode described above and fully opens the outdoor expansion valve 6. Then, the compressor 2 is operated, the high-temperature refrigerant discharged from the compressor 2 is caused to flow into the outdoor heat exchanger 7 via the radiator 4 and the outdoor expansion valve 6, and the frost formation on the outdoor heat exchanger 7 is prevented. Thaw (Figure 10). Then, the heat pump controller 32 defrosts the outdoor heat exchanger 7 when the outdoor heat exchanger temperature TXO detected by the outdoor heat exchanger temperature sensor 49 becomes higher than a predetermined defrosting end temperature (for example, +3° C.). Is completed and the defrosting mode is terminated.
 (10)バッテリ加熱モード
 また、空調運転を実行しているとき、或いは、バッテリ55を充電しているとき、ヒートポンプコントローラ32はバッテリ加熱モードを実行する。このバッテリ加熱モードでは、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は循環ポンプ62を運転し、熱媒体加熱ヒータ63に通電する。尚、電磁弁69は閉じる。
(10) Battery Heating Mode Further, the heat pump controller 32 executes the battery heating mode when the air conditioning operation is executed or when the battery 55 is charged. In this battery heating mode, the heat pump controller 32 operates the circulation pump 62 and energizes the heat medium heating heater 63. The solenoid valve 69 is closed.
 これにより、循環ポンプ62から吐出された熱媒体は熱媒体配管66内を冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64の熱媒体流路64Aに至り、そこを通過して熱媒体加熱ヒータ63に至る。このとき熱媒体加熱ヒータ63は発熱されているので、熱媒体は熱媒体加熱ヒータ63により加熱されて温度上昇した後、バッテリ55に至り、当該バッテリ55と熱交換する。これにより、バッテリ55は加熱されると共に、バッテリ55を加熱した後の熱媒体は、循環ポンプ62に吸い込まれる循環を繰り返す。 As a result, the heat medium discharged from the circulation pump 62 reaches the heat medium flow passage 64A of the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 through the heat medium pipe 66, and passes therethrough to reach the heat medium heater 63. At this time, since the heat medium heating heater 63 is generating heat, the heat medium is heated by the heat medium heating heater 63 and its temperature rises, and then reaches the battery 55 and exchanges heat with the battery 55. Thereby, the battery 55 is heated, and the heat medium after heating the battery 55 is sucked into the circulation pump 62 and repeats circulation.
 このバッテリ加熱モードにおいては、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は熱媒体温度センサ76が検出する熱媒体温度Twに基づいて熱媒体加熱ヒータ63の通電を制御することにより、熱媒体温度Twを所定の目標熱媒体温度TWOに調整し、バッテリ55を加熱する。 In this battery heating mode, the heat pump controller 32 controls the energization of the heat medium heating heater 63 based on the heat medium temperature Tw detected by the heat medium temperature sensor 76 to set the heat medium temperature Tw to the predetermined target heat medium temperature. Adjust to TWO and heat battery 55.
 (11)ヒートポンプコントローラ32による圧縮機2の制御
 また、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は、暖房モードでは放熱器圧力Pciに基づき、図11の制御ブロック図により圧縮機2の目標回転数(圧縮機目標回転数)TGNChを算出し、除湿冷房モード、冷房モード、空調(優先)+バッテリ冷却モードでは、吸熱器温度Teに基づき、図12の制御ブロック図により圧縮機2の目標回転数(圧縮機目標回転数)TGNCcを算出する。尚、除湿暖房モードでは圧縮機目標回転数TGNChと圧縮機目標回転数TGNCcのうちの低い方向を選択する。また、バッテリ冷却(優先)+空調モード、バッテリ冷却(単独)モードでは、熱媒体温度Twに基づき、図14の制御ブロック図により圧縮機2の目標回転数(圧縮機目標回転数)TGNCwを算出する。
(11) Control of Compressor 2 by Heat Pump Controller 32 Further, the heat pump controller 32 is based on the radiator pressure Pci in the heating mode, and the target rotation speed of the compressor 2 (compressor target rotation speed) is shown in the control block diagram of FIG. The TGNCh is calculated, and in the dehumidifying cooling mode, the cooling mode, and the air conditioning (priority)+battery cooling mode, the target rotation speed of the compressor 2 (compressor target rotation speed) based on the heat absorber temperature Te according to the control block diagram of FIG. Calculate TGNCc. In the dehumidifying and heating mode, the lower direction of the compressor target speed TGNCh and the compressor target speed TGNc is selected. In the battery cooling (priority)+air conditioning mode and the battery cooling (single) mode, the target rotation speed of the compressor 2 (compressor target rotation speed) TGNCw is calculated based on the heat medium temperature Tw by the control block diagram of FIG. To do.
 (11-1)放熱器圧力Pciに基づく圧縮機目標回転数TGNChの算出
 先ず、図11を用いて放熱器圧力Pciに基づく圧縮機2の制御について詳述する。図11は放熱器圧力Pciに基づいて圧縮機2の目標回転数(圧縮機目標回転数)TGNChを算出するヒートポンプコントローラ32の制御ブロック図である。ヒートポンプコントローラ32のF/F(フィードフォワード)操作量演算部78は外気温度センサ33から得られる外気温度Tamと、室内送風機27のブロワ電圧BLVと、SW=(TAO-Te)/(Thp-Te)で得られるエアミックスダンパ28による風量割合SWと、放熱器4の出口における冷媒の過冷却度SCの目標値である目標過冷却度TGSCと、ヒータ温度Thpの目標値である前述した目標ヒータ温度TCOと、放熱器4の圧力の目標値である目標放熱器圧力PCOに基づいて圧縮機目標回転数のF/F操作量TGNChffを算出する。
(11-1) Calculation of Compressor Target Rotational Speed TGNCh Based on Radiator Pressure Pci First, the control of the compressor 2 based on the radiator pressure Pci will be described in detail with reference to FIG. FIG. 11 is a control block diagram of the heat pump controller 32 that calculates the target rotation speed (compressor target rotation speed) TGNCh of the compressor 2 based on the radiator pressure Pci. The F/F (feed forward) manipulated variable calculation unit 78 of the heat pump controller 32 uses the outside air temperature Tam obtained from the outside air temperature sensor 33, the blower voltage BLV of the indoor blower 27, and SW=(TAO-Te)/(Thp-Te). ) The air flow rate SW by the air mix damper 28, the target supercooling degree TGSC which is the target value of the supercooling degree SC of the refrigerant at the outlet of the radiator 4, and the above-mentioned target heater which is the target value of the heater temperature Thp. Based on the temperature TCO and the target radiator pressure PCO which is the target value of the pressure of the radiator 4, the F/F operation amount TGNChff of the compressor target rotation speed is calculated.
 尚、ヒータ温度Thpは放熱器4の風下側の空気温度(推定値)であり、放熱器圧力センサ47が検出する放熱器圧力Pciと放熱器出口温度センサ44が検出する放熱器4の冷媒出口温度Tciから算出(推定)する。また、過冷却度SCは放熱器入口温度センサ43と放熱器出口温度センサ44が検出する放熱器4の冷媒入口温度Tcxinと冷媒出口温度Tciから算出される。 The heater temperature Thp is the air temperature (estimated value) on the leeward side of the radiator 4, and the radiator pressure Pci detected by the radiator pressure sensor 47 and the refrigerant outlet of the radiator 4 detected by the radiator outlet temperature sensor 44. It is calculated (estimated) from the temperature Tci. The degree of supercooling SC is calculated from the refrigerant inlet temperature Tcxin and the refrigerant outlet temperature Tci of the radiator 4 detected by the radiator inlet temperature sensor 43 and the radiator outlet temperature sensor 44.
 前記目標放熱器圧力PCOは上記目標過冷却度TGSCと目標ヒータ温度TCOに基づいて目標値演算部79が算出する。更に、F/B(フィードバック)操作量演算部81はこの目標放熱器圧力PCOと放熱器圧力Pciに基づくPID演算若しくはPI演算により圧縮機目標回転数のF/B操作量TGNChfbを算出する。そして、F/F操作量演算部78が算出したF/F操作量TGNChffとF/B操作量演算部81が算出したF/B操作量TGNChfbは加算器82で加算され、TGNCh00としてリミット設定部83に入力される。 The target radiator pressure PCO is calculated by the target value calculator 79 based on the target supercooling degree TGSC and the target heater temperature TCO. Further, the F/B (feedback) manipulated variable calculation unit 81 calculates the F/B manipulated variable TGNChfb of the compressor target rotational speed by PID calculation or PI calculation based on the target radiator pressure PCO and the radiator pressure Pci. Then, the F/F operation amount TGNChff calculated by the F/F operation amount calculation unit 78 and the F/B operation amount TGNChfb calculated by the F/B operation amount calculation unit 81 are added by the adder 82 to obtain a limit setting unit as TGNCh00. 83 is input.
 リミット設定部83では制御上の下限回転数ECNpdLimLoと上限回転数ECNpdLimHiのリミットが付けられてTGNCh0とされた後、圧縮機OFF制御部84を経て圧縮機目標回転数TGNChとして決定される。通常モードではヒートポンプコントローラ32は、この放熱器圧力Pciに基づいて算出された圧縮機目標回転数TGNChにより、放熱器圧力Pciが目標放熱器圧力PCOになるように圧縮機2の運転を制御する。 In the limit setting unit 83, the control lower limit speed ECNpdLimLo and the upper limit speed ECNpdLimHi are set to TGNCh0, and then the compressor OFF control unit 84 is used to determine the target compressor speed TGNCh. In the normal mode, the heat pump controller 32 controls the operation of the compressor 2 so that the radiator pressure Pci becomes the target radiator pressure PCO by the compressor target rotation speed TGNCh calculated based on the radiator pressure Pci.
 尚、圧縮機OFF制御部84は、放熱器4が軽負荷状態となり、圧縮機目標回転数TGNChが上述した下限回転数ECNpdLimLoとなって、放熱器圧力Pciが目標放熱器圧力PCOの上下に設定された所定の上限値PULと下限値PLLのうちの上限値PULより高い所定の強制停止値PSLまで上昇した状態(強制停止値PSLを上回った状態、又は、強制停止値PSL以上となった状態。以下、同じ)が所定時間th1継続した場合(放熱器4の所定の軽負荷条件が成立)、圧縮機2を停止させて圧縮機2をON-OFF制御するON-OFF制御モードに入る。 The compressor OFF control unit 84 sets the radiator 4 in a light load state, sets the compressor target rotation speed TGNCh to the above-described lower limit rotation speed ECNpdLimLo, and sets the radiator pressure Pci above and below the target radiator pressure PCO. A state in which a predetermined forced stop value PSL higher than the upper limit value PUL of the predetermined upper limit value PUL and the lower limit value PLL has risen (a state in which the forced stop value PSL is exceeded or a forced stop value PSL or more is reached). If the same applies hereafter for a predetermined time th1 (a predetermined light load condition of the radiator 4 is satisfied), the compressor 2 is stopped and an ON-OFF control mode for ON-OFF controlling the compressor 2 is entered.
 この圧縮機2のON-OFF制御モードでは、放熱器圧力Pciが下限値PLLまで低下した場合(下限値PLLを下回った場合、又は、下限値PLL以下となった場合。以下、同じ)、圧縮機2を起動して圧縮機目標回転数TGNChを下限回転数ECNpdLimLoとして運転し、その状態で放熱器圧力Pciが上限値PULまで上昇した場合は圧縮機2を再度停止させる。即ち、下限回転数ECNpdLimLoでの圧縮機2の運転(ON)と、停止(OFF)を繰り返す。そして、放熱器圧力Pciが下限値PULまで低下し、圧縮機2を起動した後、放熱器圧力Pciが下限値PULより高くならない状態が所定時間th2継続した場合、圧縮機2のON-OFFモード制御を終了し、通常モードに復帰するものである。 In the ON-OFF control mode of the compressor 2, when the radiator pressure Pci decreases to the lower limit value PLL (when it falls below the lower limit value PLL or becomes equal to or lower than the lower limit value PLL. The same applies hereinafter), compression The machine 2 is started to operate with the compressor target rotation speed TGNCh as the lower limit rotation speed ECNpdLimLo, and when the radiator pressure Pci rises to the upper limit value PUL in that state, the compressor 2 is stopped again. That is, the operation (ON) and the stop (OFF) of the compressor 2 at the lower limit rotation speed ECNpdLimLo are repeated. When the radiator pressure Pci decreases to the lower limit value PUL and the compressor 2 is started, and the radiator pressure Pci does not become higher than the lower limit value PUL for a predetermined time th2, the compressor 2 is turned on and off. The control is terminated and the normal mode is restored.
 (11-2)吸熱器温度Teに基づく圧縮機目標回転数TGNCcの算出
 次に、図12を用いて吸熱器温度Teに基づく圧縮機2の制御について詳述する。図12は吸熱器温度Teに基づいて圧縮機2の目標回転数(圧縮機目標回転数)TGNCcを算出するヒートポンプコントローラ32の制御ブロック図である。ヒートポンプコントローラ32のF/F操作量演算部86は外気温度Tamと、空気流通路3内を流通する空気の風量Ga(室内送風機27のブロワ電圧BLVでもよい)と、目標放熱器圧力PCOと、吸熱器温度Teの目標値である目標吸熱器温度TEOに基づいて圧縮機目標回転数のF/F操作量TGNCcffを算出する。
(11-2) Calculation of Compressor Target Rotational Speed TGNCc Based on Heat Absorber Temperature Te Next, the control of the compressor 2 based on the heat absorber temperature Te will be described in detail with reference to FIG. FIG. 12 is a control block diagram of the heat pump controller 32 that calculates the target rotation speed (compressor target rotation speed) TGNCc of the compressor 2 based on the heat absorber temperature Te. The F/F operation amount calculation unit 86 of the heat pump controller 32 has an outside air temperature Tam, an air flow amount Ga of air flowing through the air flow passage 3 (may be the blower voltage BLV of the indoor blower 27), a target radiator pressure PCO, The F/F manipulated variable TGNCcff of the compressor target rotation speed is calculated based on the target heat absorber temperature TEO which is the target value of the heat absorber temperature Te.
 また、F/B操作量演算部87は目標吸熱器温度TEOと吸熱器温度Teに基づくPID演算若しくはPI演算により圧縮機目標回転数のF/B操作量TGNCcfbを算出する。そして、F/F操作量演算部86が算出したF/F操作量TGNCcffとF/B操作量演算部87が算出したF/B操作量TGNCcfbは加算器88で加算され、TGNCc00としてリミット設定部89に入力される。 The F/B manipulated variable calculation unit 87 also calculates the F/B manipulated variable TGNCcfb of the compressor target rotation speed by PID calculation or PI calculation based on the target heat absorber temperature TEO and the heat absorber temperature Te. Then, the F/F operation amount TGNCcff calculated by the F/F operation amount calculation unit 86 and the F/B operation amount TGNCcfb calculated by the F/B operation amount calculation unit 87 are added by the adder 88 to obtain a limit setting unit as TGNCc00. Input to 89.
 リミット設定部89では制御上の下限回転数TGNCcLimLoと上限回転数TGNCcLimHiのリミットが付けられてTGNCc0とされた後、圧縮機OFF制御部91を経て圧縮機目標回転数TGNCcとして決定される。従って、加算器88で加算された値TGNCc00が上限回転数TGNCcLimHiと下限回転数TGNCcLimLo以内であり、後述するON-OFF制御モードにならなければ、この値TGNCc00が圧縮機目標回転数TGNCc(圧縮機2の回転数となる)。通常モードではヒートポンプコントローラ32は、この吸熱器温度Teに基づいて算出された圧縮機目標回転数TGNCcにより、吸熱器温度Teが目標吸熱器温度TEOになるように圧縮機2の運転を制御する。 In the limit setting unit 89, the lower limit speed TGNCcLimLo for control and the upper limit speed TGNCcLimHi are set to TGNCc0, and then the compressor OFF control unit 91 is used to determine the target compressor speed TGNCc. Therefore, if the value TGNCc00 added by the adder 88 is within the upper limit rotation speed TGNCcLimHi and the lower limit rotation speed TGNCcLimLo and the ON-OFF control mode described later does not occur, this value TGNCc00 is the target compressor rotation speed TGNCc (compressor. 2 rotations). In the normal mode, the heat pump controller 32 controls the operation of the compressor 2 so that the heat absorber temperature Te becomes the target heat absorber temperature TEO by the compressor target rotation speed TGNCc calculated based on the heat absorber temperature Te.
 尚、圧縮機OFF制御部91は、吸熱器9が軽負荷状態となり、圧縮機目標回転数TGNCcが上述した下限回転数TGNCcLimLoとなって、吸熱器温度Teが目標吸熱器温度TEOの上下に設定された上限値TeULと下限値TeLLのうちの下限値TeLLより低い所定の強制停止値TeSLまで低下した状態(強制停止値TeSLを下回った状態、又は、強制停止値TeSL以下となった状態。以下、同じ)が所定時間tc1継続した場合(吸熱器9の所定の軽負荷条件が成立)、圧縮機2を停止(圧縮機OFF)させて圧縮機2をON-OFF制御するON-OFF制御モードに入る。 The compressor OFF control unit 91 sets the heat absorber 9 in a light load state, sets the compressor target rotation speed TGNCc to the above-described lower limit rotation speed TGNCcLimLo, and sets the heat absorber temperature Te above and below the target heat absorber temperature TEO. The state in which the predetermined forced stop value TeSL, which is lower than the lower limit value TeLL of the upper limit value TeUL and the lower limit value TeLL, is decreased (the state is below the forced stop value TeSL or is equal to or less than the forced stop value TeSL. , The same) continues for a predetermined time tc1 (a predetermined light load condition of the heat absorber 9 is satisfied), the compressor 2 is stopped (compressor OFF) and the compressor 2 is ON-OFF controlled in an ON-OFF control mode. to go into.
 この場合の圧縮機2のON-OFF制御モードでは、吸熱器温度Teが上限値TeULまで上昇した場合(上限値TeULを上回った場合、又は、上限値TeUL以上となった場合。以下、同じ)、圧縮機2を起動(圧縮機ON)して圧縮機目標回転数TGNCcを下限回転数TGNCcLimLoとして運転し、その状態で吸熱器温度Teが下限値TeLLまで低下した場合は圧縮機2を再度停止させる(圧縮機OFF)。即ち、下限回転数TGNCcLimLoでの圧縮機2の運転(圧縮機ON)と、停止(圧縮機OFF)を繰り返す。そして、吸熱器温度Teが上限値TeULまで上昇し、圧縮機2を起動した後(圧縮機ON)、吸熱器温度Teが上限値TeULより低くならない状態が所定時間tc2継続した場合、この場合の圧縮機2のON-OFF制御モードを終了し、通常モードに復帰するものである。 In the ON-OFF control mode of the compressor 2 in this case, when the heat absorber temperature Te rises to the upper limit value TeUL (when it exceeds the upper limit value TeUL or becomes equal to or higher than the upper limit value TeUL. The same applies hereinafter). , Start the compressor 2 (compressor ON), operate the compressor target speed TGNCc as the lower limit speed TGNCcLimLo, and stop the compressor 2 again when the heat absorber temperature Te drops to the lower limit value TeLL in that state. Allow (compressor OFF). That is, the operation of the compressor 2 (compressor ON) and the stop (compressor OFF) at the lower limit rotation speed TGNCcLimLo are repeated. Then, after the heat absorber temperature Te rises to the upper limit value TeUL and the compressor 2 is started (compressor ON), the state in which the heat absorber temperature Te does not become lower than the upper limit value TeUL continues for a predetermined time tc2. The ON-OFF control mode of the compressor 2 is terminated and the normal mode is restored.
 (11-3)熱媒体温度Twに基づく圧縮機目標回転数TGNCwの算出
 次に、図14を用いて熱媒体温度Twに基づく圧縮機2の制御について詳述する。図14は、前述したバッテリ冷却(優先)+空調モード及びバッテリ冷却(単独)モードにおいて、熱媒体温度Twに基づき圧縮機2の目標回転数(圧縮機目標回転数)TGNCwを算出するヒートポンプコントローラ32の制御ブロック図である。
(11-3) Calculation of Compressor Target Rotational Speed TGNCw Based on Heat Medium Temperature Tw Next, the control of the compressor 2 based on the heat medium temperature Tw will be described in detail with reference to FIG. FIG. 14 is a heat pump controller 32 that calculates a target rotation speed (compressor target rotation speed) TGNCw of the compressor 2 based on the heat medium temperature Tw in the battery cooling (priority)+air conditioning mode and the battery cooling (single) mode described above. It is a control block diagram of.
 この図において、ヒートポンプコントローラ32のF/F操作量演算部92は外気温度Tamと、機器温度調整装置61内の熱媒体の流量Gw(循環ポンプ62の出力から算出される)と、バッテリ55の発熱量(バッテリコントローラ73から送信される)と、バッテリ温度Tcell(バッテリコントローラ73から送信される)と、熱媒体温度Twの目標値である目標熱媒体温度TWOに基づいて圧縮機目標回転数のF/F操作量TGNCcwffを算出する。 In this figure, the F/F operation amount calculation unit 92 of the heat pump controller 32 indicates the outside air temperature Tam, the flow rate Gw of the heat medium in the device temperature adjusting device 61 (calculated from the output of the circulation pump 62), and the battery 55. Based on the heat generation amount (transmitted from the battery controller 73), the battery temperature Tcell (transmitted from the battery controller 73), and the target heat medium temperature TWO that is the target value of the heat medium temperature Tw, the compressor target rotation speed is calculated. The F/F operation amount TGNCcwff is calculated.
 また、F/B操作量演算部93は目標熱媒体温度TWOと熱媒体温度Tw(バッテリコントローラ73から送信される)に基づくPID演算若しくはPI演算により圧縮機目標回転数のF/B操作量TGNCwfbを算出する。そして、F/F操作量演算部92が算出したF/F操作量TGNCwffとF/B操作量演算部93が算出したF/B操作量TGNCwfbは加算器94で加算され、TGNCw00としてリミット設定部96に入力される。 Further, the F/B manipulated variable calculation unit 93 performs a PID calculation or a PI calculation based on the target heat medium temperature TWO and the heat medium temperature Tw (transmitted from the battery controller 73) to determine the F/B manipulated variable TGNCwfb of the compressor target rotation speed. To calculate. Then, the F/F operation amount TGNCwff calculated by the F/F operation amount calculation unit 92 and the F/B operation amount TGNCwfb calculated by the F/B operation amount calculation unit 93 are added by the adder 94 to obtain a limit setting unit as TGNCw00. 96 is input.
 リミット設定部96では制御上の下限回転数TGNCwLimLoと上限回転数TGNCwLimHiのリミットが付けられてTGNCw0とされた後、圧縮機OFF制御部97を経て圧縮機目標回転数TGNCwとして決定される。従って、加算器94で加算された値TGNCw00が上限回転数TGNCwLimHiと下限回転数TGNCwLimLo以内であり、後述するON-OFF制御モードにならなければ、この値TGNCw00が圧縮機目標回転数TGNCw(圧縮機2の回転数となる)。通常モードではヒートポンプコントローラ32は、この熱媒体温度Twに基づいて算出された圧縮機目標回転数TGNCwにより、熱媒体温度Twが目標熱媒体温度TWOになるように圧縮機2の運転を制御する。 In the limit setting unit 96, the lower limit rotational speed TGNCwLimLo and the upper limit rotational speed TGNCwLimHi in control are set to TGNCw0, and then the compressor OFF control unit 97 is used to determine the target compressor rotational speed TGNCw. Therefore, if the value TGNCw00 added by the adder 94 is within the upper limit rotation speed TGNCwLimHi and the lower limit rotation speed TGNCwLimLo and the ON-OFF control mode described later does not occur, this value TGNCw00 is the target compressor rotation speed TGNCw (compressor. 2 rotations). In the normal mode, the heat pump controller 32 controls the operation of the compressor 2 so that the heat medium temperature Tw becomes the target heat medium temperature TWO by the compressor target rotation speed TGNCw calculated based on the heat medium temperature Tw.
 ここで、図16を用いて図14中の圧縮機OFF制御部97の動作について説明する。尚、図中NCは圧縮機2の回転数である。上記の如く圧縮機2の回転数制御で熱媒体温度Twを目標熱媒体温度TWOに制御している通常モードにおいて、冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64におけるバッテリ55の冷却負荷が軽くなり(軽負荷状態となり)、圧縮機目標回転数TGNCwが上述した下限回転数TGNCwLimLoとなって、熱媒体温度Twが目標熱媒体温度TWOの上下に設定された上限値TwULと下限値TwLLのうちの下限値TwLLよりも更に低くなり、当該下限値TwLLよりも低い所定の強制停止値TwSL(目標熱媒体温度TWOよりも低い値)を下回った場合、圧縮機OFF制御部97は、当該強制停止値TwSLを下回った時点で、冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64の所定の軽負荷条件が成立したものと判断する。 Here, the operation of the compressor OFF control unit 97 in FIG. 14 will be described with reference to FIG. In the figure, NC is the number of revolutions of the compressor 2. In the normal mode in which the heat medium temperature Tw is controlled to the target heat medium temperature TWO by controlling the rotation speed of the compressor 2 as described above, the cooling load of the battery 55 in the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 becomes light (light load). State), the compressor target rotation speed TGNCw becomes the above-described lower limit rotation speed TGNCwLimLo, and the heat medium temperature Tw is set to the upper and lower sides of the target heat medium temperature TWO. The lower limit value TwLL and the lower limit value TwLL of the lower limit value TwLL are set. If it is lower than the predetermined forced stop value TwSL (lower than the target heat medium temperature TWO) lower than the lower limit value TwLL, the compressor OFF control unit 97 falls below the forced stop value TwSL. At that time, it is determined that the predetermined light load condition of the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 is satisfied.
 そして、圧縮機OFF制御部97は、即座に圧縮機2を停止(圧縮機OFF)させ、以後、圧縮機2をON-OFF制御するON-OFF制御モードに入る。即ち、圧縮機2の回転数による熱媒体温度Twの制御範囲を超えて、当該熱媒体温度Twが強制停止値TwSLを下回った時点で、ヒートポンプコントローラ32の圧縮機OFF制御部97は圧縮機2を即座に停止する。これにより、図16に示す如く熱媒体温度Twは上昇に転ずることになる。尚、上記軽負荷条件の成立は、熱媒体温度Twが強制停止値TwSLを下回った場合に限らず、熱媒体温度Twが強制停止値TwSL以下となった場合でもよい。 Then, the compressor OFF control unit 97 immediately stops the compressor 2 (compressor OFF), and thereafter enters the ON-OFF control mode for ON-OFF controlling the compressor 2. That is, when the heat medium temperature Tw exceeds the control range of the heat medium temperature Tw according to the rotation speed of the compressor 2 and the heat medium temperature Tw falls below the forced stop value TwSL, the compressor OFF control unit 97 of the heat pump controller 32 causes the compressor OFF control unit 97 to move. To stop immediately. As a result, the heat medium temperature Tw starts to rise as shown in FIG. The light load condition may be satisfied not only when the heat medium temperature Tw is lower than the forced stop value TwSL but also when the heat medium temperature Tw is equal to or lower than the forced stop value TwSL.
 ここで、前述した図11の圧縮機OFF制御部84や図12の圧縮機OFF制御部91の場合と同様に、ON-OFF制御に入った場合の例を図17に示す。即ち、図17の例では圧縮機目標回転数TGNCwが下限回転数TGNCwLimLoとなって、熱媒体温度Twが強制停止値TwSLを下回った状態が所定時間tw1継続した場合、冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64の所定の軽負荷条件が成立したものと判断し、圧縮機2を停止させてON-OFF制御モードに入る制御を示している。 Here, as in the case of the compressor OFF control unit 84 of FIG. 11 and the compressor OFF control unit 91 of FIG. 12 described above, an example of the case where the ON-OFF control is entered is shown in FIG. That is, in the example of FIG. 17, when the compressor target rotation speed TGNCw becomes the lower limit rotation speed TGNCwLimLo and the heat medium temperature Tw is lower than the forced stop value TwSL for a predetermined time tw1, the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger is The control shows that the predetermined light load condition of 64 is satisfied and the compressor 2 is stopped to enter the ON-OFF control mode.
 図17のように、圧縮機目標回転数TGNCwが下限回転数TGNCwLimLoとなり、熱媒体温度Twが強制停止値TwSLを下回った状態が所定時間tw1継続してから圧縮機2を停止させる場合、圧縮機2が停止されるまでの時間tw1が経過するうちに、熱媒体温度Twは過渡的に強制停止値TwSLを大きく下回ってしまう(図17にX1で示す)。そのような状態となると、熱媒体温度Twが下がり過ぎて、それにより冷却されるバッテリ55に結露が発生してしまうようになる。 As shown in FIG. 17, when the compressor target rotation speed TGNCw becomes the lower limit rotation speed TGNCwLimLo and the heat medium temperature Tw is lower than the forced stop value TwSL for a predetermined time tw1 and then the compressor 2 is stopped, the compressor is While the time tw1 until 2 is stopped, the heat medium temperature Tw transiently greatly falls below the forced stop value TwSL (indicated by X1 in FIG. 17). In such a state, the heat medium temperature Tw is excessively lowered, which causes dew condensation on the battery 55 to be cooled.
 一方、図16のように圧縮機目標回転数TGNCwが下限回転数TGNCwLimLoとなって、熱媒体温度Twが強制停止値TwSLを下回った場合、又は、強制停止値TwSL以下となった場合、その時点で冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64の軽負荷条件が成立したものと判断して、即座に圧縮機2を停止(圧縮機OFF)させ、ON-OFF制御モードに入るようにすれば、熱媒体温度Twは強制停止値TwSLを大きく下回ること無く、上昇に転ずるようになるので、バッテリ55に結露は発生しなくなる。 On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 16, when the compressor target rotation speed TGNCw becomes the lower limit rotation speed TGNCwLimLo and the heat medium temperature Tw is lower than the forced stop value TwSL or becomes equal to or less than the forced stop value TwSL, at that time point. If it is determined that the light load condition of the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 is satisfied, the compressor 2 is immediately stopped (compressor OFF), and the ON-OFF control mode is entered. The temperature Tw does not fall below the forced stop value TwSL and starts to rise, so that dew condensation does not occur in the battery 55.
 その後のON-OFF制御モードでは、熱媒体温度Twが上限値TwULまで上昇した場合(上限値TwULを上回った場合、又は、上限値TwUL以上となった場合。以下、同じ)、圧縮機2を起動(圧縮機ON)して圧縮機目標回転数TGNCwを下限回転数TGNCwLimLoとして運転し、その状態で熱媒体温度Twが下限値TwLLまで低下した場合(熱媒体温度Twが下限値TwLLを下回った場合、又は、下限値TwLL以下となった場合)は圧縮機2を再度停止させる。即ち、上限値TwULと下限値TwLLの間で、下限回転数TGNCwLimLoでの圧縮機2の運転(ON)と、停止(OFF)を繰り返す。 In the subsequent ON-OFF control mode, when the heat medium temperature Tw rises to the upper limit value TwUL (when it exceeds the upper limit value TwUL or when it becomes equal to or higher than the upper limit value TwUL. The same applies hereinafter), the compressor 2 is turned on. When the heat medium temperature Tw is lowered to the lower limit value TwLL in that state by starting (compressor ON) and operating the compressor target rotation speed TGNCw as the lower limit rotation speed TGNCwLimLo (the heat medium temperature Tw is below the lower limit value TwLL) In the case of, or when it becomes the lower limit value TwLL or less), the compressor 2 is stopped again. That is, between the upper limit value TwUL and the lower limit value TwLL, the operation (ON) and the stop (OFF) of the compressor 2 at the lower limit rotation speed TGNCwLimLo are repeated.
 そして、実施例では熱媒体温度Twが上限値TwULまで上昇し(熱媒体温度Twが上限値TwULを上回り、又は、熱媒体温度Twが上限値TwUL以上となり)、圧縮機2を起動した後、熱媒体温度Twが上限値TwULを上回り、若しくは、上限値TwUL以上となった状態(熱媒体温度Twが上限値TwULより低くならない状態)が所定時間tw2継続した場合、ヒートポンプコントローラ32は圧縮機2のON-OFF制御モードを終了し、通常モードに復帰する。 Then, in the embodiment, the heat medium temperature Tw rises to the upper limit value TwUL (the heat medium temperature Tw exceeds the upper limit value TwUL, or the heat medium temperature Tw becomes equal to or higher than the upper limit value TwUL), and after starting the compressor 2, If the state in which the heat medium temperature Tw exceeds the upper limit value TwUL or is equal to or higher than the upper limit value TwUL (the state in which the heat medium temperature Tw does not become lower than the upper limit value TwUL) continues for a predetermined time tw2, the heat pump controller 32 causes the compressor 2 The ON-OFF control mode of is ended and the mode returns to the normal mode.
 以上の如くバッテリ冷却(優先)+空調モード及びバッテリ冷却(単独)モードにおいては、熱媒体温度Twが、目標熱媒体温度TWOよりも低い所定の強制停止値TwSLを下回った場合、若しくは、当該強制停止値TwSL以下となった場合、その時点で圧縮機2を停止するようにしたので、熱媒体温度Twを圧縮機2の回転数制御により目標熱媒体温度TWOに維持しているときにバッテリ55の冷却負荷が減少し、制御範囲を超えて熱媒体温度Twが低下し、強制停止値TwSLを下回った場合、若しくは、それ以下となった場合、即座に圧縮機2を停止することができるようになり、バッテリ55の温度が下がり過ぎて結露が発生してしまう不都合を未然に回避することができるようになる。 As described above, in the battery cooling (priority)+air conditioning mode and the battery cooling (single) mode, when the heat medium temperature Tw falls below a predetermined forced stop value TwSL lower than the target heat medium temperature TWO, or When it becomes equal to or less than the stop value TwSL, the compressor 2 is stopped at that time. Therefore, the battery 55 is maintained when the heat medium temperature Tw is maintained at the target heat medium temperature TWO by controlling the rotation speed of the compressor 2. When the cooling load decreases, the heat medium temperature Tw falls below the control range, and falls below the forced stop value TwSL, or when it becomes less than that, it is possible to immediately stop the compressor 2. Therefore, it is possible to avoid the inconvenience that the temperature of the battery 55 drops too much and dew condensation occurs.
 また、実施例ではヒートポンプコントローラ32の圧縮機OFF制御部97が、目標熱媒体温度TWOの上側に設定された上限値TwULと、強制停止値TwSLより上側であって目標熱媒体温度TWOの下側に設定された下限値TwLLを有し、熱媒体温度Twが強制停止値TwSLを下回り、若しくは、強制停止値TwSL以下となって圧縮機2を停止した後は、上限値TwULと下限値TwLLの間で圧縮機2の運転/停止を繰り返すON-OFF制御モードを実行するので、バッテリ55の結露を回避しながら当該バッテリ55を適切に冷却することができるようになる。 In the embodiment, the compressor OFF control unit 97 of the heat pump controller 32 sets the upper limit value TwUL set above the target heat medium temperature TWO and the upper side of the forced stop value TwSL to the lower side of the target heat medium temperature TWO. Has a lower limit value TwLL set to, and the heat medium temperature Tw falls below the forced stop value TwSL or becomes equal to or less than the forced stop value TwSL and the compressor 2 is stopped, the upper limit value TwUL and the lower limit value TwLL are Since the ON-OFF control mode in which the operation/stop of the compressor 2 is repeated is executed during the interval, it is possible to appropriately cool the battery 55 while avoiding the dew condensation of the battery 55.
 特に、実施例では圧縮機OFF制御部97が、ON-OFF制御モードにおいて圧縮機2を運転する場合、制御上の最低回転数TGNCwLimLoで運転するので、圧縮機2の頻繁な起動/停止を回避しながら、バッテリ55を円滑に冷却することができるようになる。 In particular, in the embodiment, when the compressor OFF control unit 97 operates the compressor 2 in the ON-OFF control mode, it operates at the minimum rotational speed TGNCwLimLo for control, so frequent start/stop of the compressor 2 is avoided. Meanwhile, the battery 55 can be cooled smoothly.
 また、実施例の如く圧縮機OFF制御部97が、熱媒体温度Twが上限値TwULを上回り、若しくは、上限値TwUL以上となり、その状態が所定時間tw2継続した場合、ON-OFF制御モードを終了して熱媒体温度Twと、目標熱媒体温度TWOに基づいて圧縮機2の回転数を制御する通常モードに復帰するようにしているので、バッテリ55の冷却負荷が増大したことに応じて、圧縮機2のON-OFF制御モードから通常モードでの回転数制御に支障無く復帰することができるようになる。 Further, when the heat medium temperature Tw exceeds the upper limit value TwUL or becomes the upper limit value TwUL or more and the state continues for a predetermined time tw2 as in the embodiment, the ON-OFF control mode ends. Then, the normal mode in which the rotation speed of the compressor 2 is controlled based on the heat medium temperature Tw and the target heat medium temperature TWO is restored, so that the compression load is increased in response to the increase in the cooling load of the battery 55. It becomes possible to return from the ON-OFF control mode of the machine 2 to the rotation speed control in the normal mode without any trouble.
 尚、上述した実施例では熱媒体温度Twを冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64(被温調対象用熱交換器)により冷却される対象(熱媒体)の温度として採用したが、バッテリ温度Tcellを冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64(被温調対象用熱交換器)により冷却される対象の温度として採用してもよく、冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64の温度(冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64自体の温度、冷媒流路64Bを出た冷媒の温度等)を冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64(被温調対象用熱交換器)の温度として採用してもよい。 In the above-described embodiment, the heat medium temperature Tw is adopted as the temperature of the target (heat medium) cooled by the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 (heat exchanger for temperature control), but the battery temperature Tcell is used. It may be adopted as the temperature of the object to be cooled by the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 (heat exchanger for temperature control), and the temperature of the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 (refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger) The temperature of 64 itself, the temperature of the refrigerant flowing out of the refrigerant flow path 64B, etc.) may be adopted as the temperature of the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64 (heat exchanger for temperature adjustment target).
 また、実施例では熱媒体を循環させてバッテリ55の温調を行うようにしたが、請求項7以外の発明ではそれに限らず、冷媒とバッテリ55(被温調対象)を直接熱交換させる被温調対象用熱交換器を設けてもよい。その場合には、バッテリ温度Tcellが被温調対象用熱交換器により冷却される対象の温度となる。 In the embodiment, the heat medium is circulated to control the temperature of the battery 55. However, the invention other than claim 7 is not limited to this, and the refrigerant and the battery 55 (the temperature controlled object) are directly heat-exchanged. A heat exchanger for temperature control may be provided. In that case, the battery temperature Tcell becomes the temperature of the target to be cooled by the target heat exchanger for temperature adjustment.
 また、実施例では車室内の冷房とバッテリ55の冷却を同時に行う空調(優先)+バッテリ冷却モードとバッテリ冷却(優先)+空調モードで車室内を冷房しながらバッテリ55を冷却することができる車両用空気調和装置1で説明したが、バッテリ55の冷却は冷房中に限らず、他の空調運転、例えば前述した除湿暖房運転とバッテリ55の冷却を同時に行うようにしてもよい。その場合には、除湿暖房モードで電磁弁69を開き、冷媒配管13Fを経て吸熱器9に向かう冷媒の一部を分岐配管67に流入させ、冷媒-熱媒体熱交換器64に流すことになる。 Further, in the embodiment, a vehicle capable of cooling the battery 55 while cooling the vehicle interior in the air conditioning (priority)+battery cooling mode and the battery cooling (priority)+air conditioning mode for simultaneously cooling the vehicle interior and cooling the battery 55 Although the air conditioning apparatus 1 has been described, the cooling of the battery 55 is not limited to during cooling, and other air conditioning operation, for example, the above-described dehumidifying and heating operation and the cooling of the battery 55 may be performed simultaneously. In that case, the solenoid valve 69 is opened in the dehumidifying and heating mode, and a part of the refrigerant flowing toward the heat absorber 9 via the refrigerant pipe 13F is caused to flow into the branch pipe 67 and flow into the refrigerant-heat medium heat exchanger 64. ..
 また、実施例では本発明における弁装置として電磁弁35を設けたが、室内膨張弁8を全閉可能な電動弁にて構成した場合には、電磁弁35は不要となり、室内膨張弁8が本発明における弁装置となる。 Further, in the embodiment, the electromagnetic valve 35 is provided as the valve device according to the present invention, but when the indoor expansion valve 8 is constituted by the electric valve which can be fully closed, the electromagnetic valve 35 becomes unnecessary and the indoor expansion valve 8 is It becomes the valve device in the present invention.
 更に、実施例で説明した冷媒回路Rの構成や数値はそれに限定されるものでは無く、本発明の趣旨を逸脱しない範囲で変更可能であることは云うまでもない。特に、実施例では暖房モード、除湿暖房モード、除湿冷房モード、冷房モード、空調(優先)+バッテリ冷却モード、バッテリ冷却(優先)+空調モード、バッテリ冷却(単独)モード等の各運転モードを有する車両用空気調和装置1で本発明を説明したが、それに限らず、例えばバッテリ冷却(優先)+空調モードとバッテリ冷却(単独)モードのうちの何れか、若しくは、双方のみを実行可能とされた車両用空気調和装置にも本発明は有効である。 Furthermore, it goes without saying that the configuration and numerical values of the refrigerant circuit R described in the embodiments are not limited to those and can be changed without departing from the spirit of the present invention. In particular, the embodiment has various operation modes such as a heating mode, a dehumidification heating mode, a dehumidification cooling mode, a cooling mode, an air conditioning (priority)+battery cooling mode, a battery cooling (priority)+air conditioning mode, and a battery cooling (single) mode. Although the present invention has been described using the vehicle air conditioner 1, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is possible to execute, for example, one of the battery cooling (priority)+air conditioning mode and the battery cooling (single) mode, or both of them. The present invention is also effective for a vehicle air conditioner.
