2. Description of the Related Art A conventional technique will be described below with reference to FIG. FIG. 1 shows a refrigerating cycle, and the arrows in the figure show the circulation direction of the refrigerant. When performing the dehumidifying operation while preventing the room temperature from decreasing, the bypass solenoid valve 5 is opened to pass the refrigerant from the compressor 1 to the outdoor heat exchanger 3 to bypass the cooling / heating decompression device 4. Then, the bypass solenoid valve 8 is closed to reduce the pressure by the dehumidifying decompression device 7 to form a cycle. Therefore, the indoor heat exchanger 9 is operated as a reheater, and the indoor heat exchanger 10 is operated as a cooler.

When used in the humid season of winter, the outside temperature in winter is much lower than room temperature, so that the temperature of condensation in the outdoor heat exchanger is very low, and the decompression device 7 for dehumidification has a constant throttle amount. Therefore, the evaporation pressure of the indoor heat exchanger 10 becomes extremely low, and when the operation is started, frost adheres to the indoor heat exchanger 10, and this becomes an ice layer after a short time, so that the dehumidifying function cannot be sufficiently exerted. It was something that ended up.
