  • JP-A-2002-224513 discloses one example of the strainer used herein, for example.
  • the period of renewal construction may become long due to addition of refrigerating machine oil enclosing work, cleaning operation work or the like for setting the concentration of impurities to be equal to or smaller than an acceptable value, for example.
  • a problem to be solved of the present invention is to provide a refrigeration cycle apparatus which can efficiently reuse existing pipes.
  • the refrigeration cycle apparatus of the present invention forms a refrigeration cycle by connecting a compressor, a heat source unit side heat exchanger, an expansion device and a using side heat exchanger using a liquid refrigerant pipe and a gas refrigerant pipe.

  • the two filters are configured in a two stage configuration consisting of an upper stage and a lower stage wherein the filter for capturing the liquid impurity is provided in the upper stage and the filter for capturing the solid foreign matter is provided in the lower stage, while the space at each of the openings of the refrigerant pipes are defined by a filter capturing a solid foreign matter.
  • the liquid impurity such as mineral oil is almost insoluble with respect to the liquid refrigerant, it is separated from the liquid refrigerant, and since the liquid impurity has a lower specific gravity than the liquid refrigerant, it moves upwards. Accordingly, by providing a filter for capturing the liquid impurity at the upper stage side in the liquid refrigerant stored in the receiver, the liquid impurity can be effectively captured. Further, since the space of each of the openings of the refrigerant pipes is defined by the lower stage side filter, the solid foreign matter is captured by the filter soon after discharged from the refrigerant pipes.
  • the filter device is provided in the receiver to have a predetermined gap from an inner wall surface of the receiver. This is for the purpose of suppressing occurrence of problems, such as meting of the filter resulting from the high temperature of the receiver wall beyond the durable temperature of the filter device, due to welding or the like during a manufacturing process of the receiver and the filter device in the receiver.

  • the solid matter capturing strainer 14a is provided on the suction side of the compressor 1 in the outdoor unit 30 in Fig. 1 , however, alternatively, a solid matter capturing strainer 14b may be provided in the gas refrigerant pipe 12 as shown in Fig. 2 .
  • a high temperature and high pressure gas refrigerant compressed by the compressor 1 is discharged from the compressor 1, passes through the four-way valve 2, flows into the heat source unit side heat exchanger 3, and exchanges heat there to be condensed into liquid.
  • the condensed liquid refrigerant passes through the outdoor expansion valve 4, which is a first expansion device and fully opened, an excess refrigerant is accumulated in the receiver 5, and a remaining refrigerant passes through the gate valve 6 and is sent to the indoor units 40a and 40b.
  • the sent liquid refrigerant flows into the indoor expansion valves 9a and 9b, which are second expansion devices, is decompressed there to be at a low pressure so as to be in a low pressure two phase state, and exchanges heat with a using side medium, such as air, to be evaporated into gas in the using side heat exchangers 10a and 10b.
  • the gas refrigerant returns to the compressor 1 through the solid matter capturing strainer 14b, the gate valve 13 and the four-way valve 2 in the case of Fig. 2 , through the gate valve 13, the four-way valve 2, and through the solid matter capturing strainer 14a in the case of Fig. 1 .
  • the high temperature and high pressure gas refrigerant compressed by the compressor 1 is discharged from the compressor 1 together with the refrigerating machine oil for HFC, flows into the using side heat exchangers 10a and 10b through the four-way valve 2 and the gate valve 13 (and the solid matter capturing strainer 14b in the case of Fig. 2 ), exchanges heat there with the using side medium such as air and is condensed into liquid.

  • the gas refrigerant returns to the compressor 1 through the four-way valve (and the solid matter capturing strainer 14a in the case of Fig. 1 ).
  • the horizontal axis indicates the solubility of refrigerant with respect to the refrigerating machine oil (refrigerating machine oil for HFC + mineral oil quantity), 0% indicates the case of consisting only of the refrigerating machine oil (refrigerating machine oil for HFC + mineral oil), and 100% indicated the case of consisting only of the refrigerant.
  • the vertical axis indicates temperature.
  • the mineral oil is hardly dissolved in the HFC-based refrigerant while it is dissolved in the refrigerating machine oil for HFC.
  • the mineral oil do not separate in the compressor in which a large quantity of refrigerating machine oil for HFC exists, but separates in the liquid connection pipe 7 and the receiver 5 in which a large quantity of liquid refrigerant exists.
  • the filter device which is a characteristic part of the present embodiment and installed in the receiver 5 will be described with reference to Fig. 4 .
  • the filter device is composed by different filters 53 and 54 and the like, which are configured in a two stage of upper and lower sides in the receiver 5.
  • the filter 53 is provided in the upper stage in the receiver 5 and made of a fibrous material with a relatively large mesh number, and the material of the fiber is composed of at least one of polyester and polypropylene.
  • the liquid refrigerant and the refrigerating machine oil for HFC dissolved in the liquid refrigerant are the liquid with remarkably low viscosity.
  • the mineral oil is the liquid with remarkably higher viscosity as compared to those of the liquid refrigerant and the refrigerating machine oil for HFC dissolved in the liquid refrigerant. Therefore, while the liquid refrigerant and the refrigerating machine oil for HFC dissolved in the liquid refrigerant pass through the filter 53, the mineral oil is trapped between the fibers of the filter 53 with the large mesh number, and after that, it is captured by a capillary phenomenon in the fibers.
  • the filter 53 in the receiver 5, the mineral oil discharged together with the refrigerating machine oil for HFC from the inside of the compressor 1 separates in the receiver 5, and it is possible to capture only the separated mineral oil by the filter 53.
  • the compressor 1 is of a high-pressure chamber type in which the pressure of the refrigerating machine oil accumulating part in the compressor 1 is high, or that an oil separator is arranged at the discharge part of the compressor 1, the temperature of the refrigerating machine oil accumulated in the compressor 1 and the oil separator becomes high.
  • the temperature of the receiver 5 becomes lower than that temperature.
  • the filter 53 in order to capture the mineral oil in the filter 53, it is necessary for the filter 53 to be brought into contact with the mineral oil. Therefore, when starting and stopping the compressor 1, the refrigerant is recovered in the receiver 5 by performing operation while setting the expansion device on the downstream side of the receiver 5 (which is the indoor expansion valves 9a and 9b in the case of cooling operation, or the outdoor expansion valve 4 in the case of heating operation) in a fully closed state or a slightly opened state close to the fully closed state.
  • the expansion device on the downstream side of the receiver 5 which is the indoor expansion valves 9a and 9b in the case of cooling operation, or the outdoor expansion valve 4 in the case of heating operation
  • the captured amount of the mineral oil by the filter 53 decreases as the flow rate with respect to the filter 53 becomes higher. This is because the mineral oil once captured by the filter 53 is extruded outside the filter 53 by fluid force of the refrigerant.
  • the flowing-in speed of the mixed liquid becomes higher as it is close to pipe tip end parts of refrigerant introducing and delivering pipes 51 and 52 for introducing the mixed liquid of the HFC-based refrigerant, the refrigerating machine oil for HFC and the mineral oil into the receiver 5, the mixed liquid of the HFC-based refrigerant, the refrigerating machine oil for HFC and the mineral oil introduced in the receiver 5 is delivered from the receiver 5 after passing through the filter 53 by directing the pipe tip end parts downwards. This enables the mineral oil introduced in the receiver 5 to be prevented from being delivered without passing through the filter 53.
  • connection pipes when reusing the connection pipes, it is unnecessary to perform cleaning operation for recovering the impurities remaining in the connection pipes, and thus the working time of the renewing construction work can be suppressed, resulting in effectively reusing of the existing pipes.
  • the filter 54 arranged in the lower stage than the filter 53 is provided near the pipe tip end parts of the refrigerant introducing and delivering pipes 51 and 52 in the receiver 5.
  • the spaces 62 at the tip end portions of the refrigerant introducing and delivering pipes 51 and 52 are defined by the filter 54.
  • the filter 54 is made of a fibrous material of which size is greater than that of the filter 53, and has a mesh number enabling solid matters of several ⁇ m to be removed. That is, the material is fibrous in which fibers are more densely superposed, gaps between fibers are smaller, and the density is larger than those of the filter 53, and is composed of at least one of polyester, polypropylene, and SUS, as a characteristic of the fiber.
  • the filter 53 for capturing the mineral oil it is desirable to set a different density from that of the filter 54 in order to make the gaps between the fibers of the filter 53 large possibly, and to set the amount of the mineral oil which can be captured to be large possibly, since the mineral oil is captured inside the fibers by means of the capillary phenomena.
  • the filter 54 is arranged to surround the vicinity of the pipe tip end parts of the refrigerant introducing and delivering pipes 51 and 52.
  • a strainer for capturing foreign matters or the prior art can capture solid foreign matters of which particle size is equal to or greater than 20 ⁇ m.
  • the number of the solid foreign matters having a particle diameter equal to or greater than 20 ⁇ m is half or more of the total number of the solid foreign matters, and thus in case of the strainer which can capture solid foreign matters of which particle diameter is equal to or greater than 20 ⁇ m, solid foreign matters of which particle diameter is equal to or smaller than 20 ⁇ m will flow into the refrigerant compressor.
  • the solid foreign matters discharged from the refrigerant introducing and delivering pipes 51 and 52 are attached on a surface of the filter 54 on a side of the refrigerant introducing and delivering pipes 51 and 52 by the above mentioned configuration.
  • caps 58 and 59 and a body 60 are welded together. At that time, the temperature of the inner wall surface of the body 60 exceeds the maximum operation temperature of the filters 53 and 54. Accordingly, if the filters 53 and 54 are constructed so as to be in contact with the inner wall surface of the body 60, the filters 53 and 54 will be melted by the heat, and will not be able to capture the refrigerant insoluble components.
  • this causes the passage of the liquid refrigerant introduced in the receiver 5 and the refrigerating machine oil for HFC dissolved in the liquid refrigerant to be blocked in the receiver 5, so that those can not be delivered from the inside of the receiver 5, and the equipment stops due to overshooting of the discharge temperature of the compressor 1, or the abrasion of the sliding part occurs due to lack of the refrigerating machine oil in the compressor 1.
  • a predetermined gap ⁇ d is provided between the body 60 and the filters 53 and 54 so that the temperatures of the filters 53 and 54 is equal to or smaller than the maximum operation temperature, to prevent the temperature of the inner wall surface of the body 60 from being transmitted to the filters.
  • the solid matter capturing strainers 14a and 14b have the structure in which an introducing cap 71 having an opening in its center is connected on one bottom side, and a cylindrical screen 70 having a screen arranged therein for capturing solid foreign matters is encapsulated in a pressure-resistant container 74 on the other bottom side.
  • the connection of the introducing cap 71 and the screen 70 prevents the solid foreign matters from flowing into and out from a connection part of the introducing cap 71 and the screen 70 by entire welding in the circumferential direction.
  • connection between the inner surface of the pressure-resistant container 74 and the introducing cap 71 also prevents the flowing-in and flowing-out of the solid foreign matters by entire caulking in the circumferential direction or by entire welding in the circumferential direction.
  • the flow of the refrigerant, the refrigerating machine oil and the solid foreign matters in the solid matter capturing strainer 14a and 14b flows as shown in the solid line arrows when the refrigerant, the refrigerating machine oil and the solid foreign matters firstly flow into the strainers from the side of the pipe 72.
  • the refrigerant and the refrigerating machine oil pass through the openings of the screen and flow out from the side of the pipe 73. Since the solid matters having a particle size equal to or greater than that of the openings of the screen 70 cannot pass through the screen 70, those are captured by the inner surface of the screen 70.
  • the material of the screen 70 used for the solid matter capturing strainer 14a and 14b is desirably made from SUS, which is a material which captures solid foreign matters having a particle size equal to or greater than several ⁇ m, does not degrades the refrigerant and the refrigerating machine oil to be used, as well as the screen 70 itself.
  • the acceptable value of the mixing amount of the solid foreign matters is set as a specification of the refrigerant compressor 1, and if the mixing amount of the solid foreign matters is equal to or smaller than the acceptable value, there is no problem even if a part of the solid foreign matters remaining in the liquid refrigerant pipe 7 and the gas refrigerant pipe 12, passes through the screen 70 and flows into the refrigerant compressor 1.
  • the screen 70 used for the solid matter capturing strainer 14a and 14b captures solid foreign matters having a particle size equal to or greater than several ⁇ m, there is no problem if the capturing rate is equal to or smaller than 100%.

Therefore, it is important to ensure the area of the screen 70 of the solid matter capturing strainer 14a sufficiently, so as not to clog the solid matter capturing strainer 14a by the solid foreign matters.
  • the solid matter capturing strainer 14b is arranged between the gas connection pipe 12 and the gas gate valve 13
