Abstract
The present invention relates to a refrigerating cycle of a dual-type air conditioning system for vehicles having a front and rear evaporators provided at the front and rear sides of the car, in which the installation space for a refrigerant discharging pipe installed in the refrigerant discharging sides respectively of the front and rear evaporators can be minimized, and also the arrangement of the refrigerant discharging pipe is improved to prevent the refrigerant from back-flowing, thereby enabling a smooth operation of the compressor and also improving the performance of the air conditioning system.
Claims8
A dual-type air conditioning system for vehicles comprising a compressor for sucking and compressing a refrigerant and circulating the refrigerant to a condenser, first and second refrigerant guide pipes for supplying heat-exchanged refrigerant in the condenser to front and rear evaporators, a refrigerant branching point, the first and second refrigerant guide pipes being branched from the branching point towards respectively the front and rear evaporators, a throttle for reducing the pressure of the heat-exchanged refrigerant and expanding the heat-exchanged refrigerant, a first refrigerant discharging pipe for supplying the refrigerant to an intake of the compressor from the front evaporator, a second refrigerant discharging pipe for supplying the refrigerant to the intake of the compressor from the rear evaporator, and a refrigerant joining point where the first refrigerant discharging pipe and the second refrigerant discharging pipe are joined;
- the refrigerant joining point being positioned so the point is closer to the intake of the compressor than to the front evaporator;
- the second refrigerant discharging pie being at a spatial position higher than the first refrigerant discharge pipe:
- the first and second refrigerant discharging pipes being arranged spatially approximately parallel to each other.
A dual-type air-conditioning system for vehicles having a front engine compartment, comprising a compressor adapted to be in the front engine compartment for sucking and compressing a refrigerant and circulating the refrigerant to a condenser adapted to be in the front engine compartment, first and second refrigerant guide pipes for supplying heat-exchanged refrigerant in the condenser to a front evaporator adapted to be in the front engine compartment, and a rear evaporator adapted to be toward the rear of the vehicle, a refrigerant branching point adapted to be in the front engine compartment, the first and second refrigerant guide pipes being branched from the branching point towards respectively the front and rear evaporators, a throttle adapted to be in the front engine compartment for reducing the pressure of the heat-exchanged refrigerant and expanding the heat-exchanged refrigerant, a first refrigerant discharging pipe adapted to be in the front engine compartment for supplying the refrigerant to an intake of the compressor from the front evaporator, a second refrigerant discharging pipe extending between the rear evaporator and the compressor for supplying the refrigerant to the intake of the compressor from the rear evaporator, and a refrigerant joining point where the first refrigerant discharging pipe and the second refrigerant discharging pipe are joined;
- the refrigerant joining point being positioned so the point is closer to the intake of the compressor than to the front evaporator;
- the second refrigerant discharging pipe being at a spatial position higher than the first refrigerant discharging pipe, and the first and second refrigerant discharging pipes being arranged approximately spatially parallel to each other.
