Description

この発明は、停車時に圧縮機の駆動源であるエンジンを一時的に停止させる車両のカーエアコンに用いられる蓄冷機能付きエバポレータに関する。   The present invention relates to an evaporator with a cold storage function used in a car air conditioner of a vehicle that temporarily stops an engine that is a drive source of a compressor when the vehicle is stopped.

近年、環境保護や自動車の燃費向上などを目的として、信号待ちなどの停車時にエンジンを自動的に停止させる自動車が提案されている。   In recent years, automobiles have been proposed that automatically stop the engine when the vehicle stops, such as when waiting for a signal, for the purpose of environmental protection or improvement in automobile fuel efficiency.

ところで、通常のカーエアコンにおいては、エンジンを停止させると、エンジンを駆動源とする圧縮機が停止するので、エバポレータに冷媒が供給されなくなり、冷房能力が急激に低下するという問題がある。   By the way, in a normal car air conditioner, when the engine is stopped, the compressor using the engine as a driving source stops, so that the refrigerant is not supplied to the evaporator, and the cooling capacity is rapidly reduced.

そこで、このような問題を解決するために、エバポレータに蓄冷機能を付与し、エンジンが停止して圧縮機が停止した際に、エバポレータに蓄えられた冷熱を利用して車室内を冷却することが考えられている。   Therefore, in order to solve such a problem, the evaporator is provided with a cold storage function, and when the engine stops and the compressor stops, the interior of the vehicle can be cooled using the cold energy stored in the evaporator. It is considered.

蓄冷機能付きエバポレータとして、互いに間隔をおいて配置された1対の冷媒用ヘッダ部と、両冷媒用ヘッダ部間に、幅方向を前後方向に向けるとともに冷媒用ヘッダ部の長さ方向に間隔をおいて配置され、かつ両端部がそれぞれ両冷媒用ヘッダ部に通じさせられた複数の扁平状冷媒流通管と、幅方向を前後方向に向けて配置されるとともに冷媒流通管の片面に固定状に設けられ、かつ内部に蓄冷材が封入された中空状の蓄冷材容器とを備えており、冷媒流通管および蓄冷材容器よりなる複数の組が間隔をおいて配置され、冷媒流通管および蓄冷材容器よりなる組の隣り合うものどうしの間の部分が通風間隙となされ、通風間隙にフィンが配置されて冷媒流通管および蓄冷材容器に接合されているものが提案されている(特許文献1参照)。   As an evaporator with a cold storage function, a pair of refrigerant headers arranged at a distance from each other, and a gap between the two refrigerant headers, with the width direction facing in the front-rear direction and the length of the refrigerant header part in the length direction. And a plurality of flat refrigerant flow pipes whose both ends are respectively connected to both refrigerant header parts, and are arranged with the width direction directed in the front-rear direction and fixed to one side of the refrigerant flow pipe And a hollow regenerator material container having a regenerator material enclosed therein, and a plurality of sets of refrigerant circulation pipes and regenerator material containers are arranged at intervals, the refrigerant circulation tube and the regenerator material A part between adjacent sets of containers is formed as a ventilation gap, and fins are arranged in the ventilation gap and joined to the refrigerant flow pipe and the regenerator container (see Patent Document 1). ).

特許文献1記載の蓄冷機能付きエバポレータによれば、冷媒流通管を流れる低温の冷媒により蓄冷材容器内の蓄冷材に冷熱が蓄えられるようになっている。   According to the evaporator with a cold storage function described in Patent Document 1, cold heat is stored in the cold storage material in the cold storage material container by the low-temperature refrigerant flowing through the refrigerant circulation pipe.

しかしながら、特許文献1記載の蓄冷機能付きエバポレータにおいては、空気がエバポレータの通風間隙を通過する際に、蓄冷材容器の風上側を向いた部分に高温の空気が当たるので、蓄冷材容器内の冷却された蓄冷材が加熱されることになり、蓄冷効率が低下するという問題がある。   However, in the evaporator with a cool storage function described in Patent Document 1, when the air passes through the ventilation gap of the evaporator, high-temperature air hits a portion facing the windward side of the cool storage material container. There is a problem that the stored cold storage material is heated and the cold storage efficiency is lowered.

図1〜図3に示すように、全通風間隙(14)のうち一部の複数の通風間隙(14)において、蓄冷材(図示略)が封入されたアルミニウム製蓄冷材容器(15)が、前後両冷媒流通管(12)に跨るように配置されている。蓄冷材容器(15)の厚み方向の寸法である容器高さは通風間隙(14)の幅に等しくなっており、蓄冷材容器(15)の左右両側面は、通風間隙(14)を形成する左右両側の組(13)をなす前後両冷媒流通管(12)に接触させられてろう付されている。蓄冷材容器(15)内は全体に1つの空間となっている。また、残りの通風間隙(14)に、両面にろう材層を有するアルミニウムブレージングシートからなるコルゲートフィン(16)が、前後両冷媒流通管(12)に跨るように配置されて通風間隙(14)を形成する左右両側の組(13)を構成する前後両冷媒流通管(12)にろう付されている。また、左右両端の冷媒流通管(12)の組(13)の外側にも両面にろう材層を有するアルミニウムブレージングシートからなるコルゲートフィン(16)が配置されて前後両冷媒流通管(12)にろう付され、さらに左右両端のコルゲートフィン(16)の外側にアルミニウム製サイドプレート(17)が配置されてコルゲートフィン(16)にろう付されている。   As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, an aluminum regenerator container (15) in which a regenerator material (not shown) is enclosed in a part of the plurality of air gaps (14) out of all the air gaps (14), It is arranged so as to straddle both the front and rear refrigerant flow pipes (12). The container height, which is a dimension in the thickness direction of the cold storage material container (15), is equal to the width of the ventilation gap (14), and the left and right sides of the cold storage material container (15) form the ventilation gap (14). The front and rear refrigerant flow pipes (12) forming a pair (13) on both the left and right sides are brought into contact with and brazed. The inside of the cool storage material container (15) is one space as a whole. Further, in the remaining ventilation gap (14), a corrugated fin (16) made of an aluminum brazing sheet having a brazing filler metal layer on both sides is disposed so as to straddle both the front and rear refrigerant flow pipes (12), and the ventilation gap (14) Are brazed to both the front and rear refrigerant flow pipes (12) constituting the left and right set (13). In addition, corrugated fins (16) made of aluminum brazing sheets having brazing filler metal layers on both sides are also arranged outside the set (13) of the refrigerant flow pipes (12) at both the left and right ends, and the front and rear refrigerant flow pipes (12) are arranged. Further, aluminum side plates (17) are disposed outside the corrugated fins (16) at both the left and right ends, and are brazed to the corrugated fins (16).

後側(風上側)の冷媒流通管(12)の後側縁部、蓄冷材容器(15)の後側(風上側)の側面、およびコルゲートフィン(16)の後側縁部は同一垂直面上に位置している。そして、蓄冷材容器(15)の後側面(風上側を向いた面)に断熱材(18)が接着されており、蓄冷材容器(15)の後側面の全体が断熱材(18)により覆われている。なお、断熱材(18)は後側冷媒流通管(12)の後側面を覆っていてもよい。断熱材(18)は後側の冷媒流通管(12)の後側縁部よりも後方に突出している。蓄冷材容器(15)内に封入される蓄冷材としては、水系、パラフィン系などの凝固点が3〜10℃程度に調整されたものを用いることが好ましい。   The rear edge of the rear (windward) refrigerant flow pipe (12), the rear (windward) side of the cool storage material container (15), and the rear edge of the corrugated fin (16) are the same vertical surface. Located on the top. The heat insulating material (18) is adhered to the rear side surface (the surface facing the windward side) of the cold storage material container (15), and the entire rear side surface of the cold storage material container (15) is covered with the heat insulating material (18). It has been broken. The heat insulating material (18) may cover the rear side surface of the rear refrigerant flow pipe (12). The heat insulating material (18) protrudes rearward from the rear edge of the rear refrigerant flow pipe (12). As the cool storage material enclosed in the cool storage material container (15), it is preferable to use a water-based, paraffin-based or the like whose freezing point is adjusted to about 3 to 10 ° C.

上述した蓄冷機能付きエバポレータ(1)は、車両のエンジンを駆動源とする圧縮機、圧縮機から吐出された冷媒を冷却するコンデンサ(冷媒冷却器)、コンデンサを通過した冷媒を減圧する膨張弁(減圧器)とともにカーエアコンを構成する。当該カーエアコンにおいて、圧縮機が作動している場合には、圧縮機で圧縮されてコンデンサおよび膨張弁を通過した低圧の気液混相の2相冷媒が、冷媒入口(7)を通って蓄冷機能付きエバポレータ(1)の入口ヘッダ部(5)内に入り、前側の全冷媒流通管(12)を通って第1中間ヘッダ部(9)内に流入する。第1中間ヘッダ部(9)内に入った冷媒は、第2中間ヘッダ部(11)内に入った後、後側の全冷媒流通管(12)を通って出口ヘッダ部(6)内に流入し、冷媒出口(8)から流出する。そして、冷媒が冷媒流通管(12)内を流れる間に、通風間隙(14)を通過する空気と熱交換をし、冷媒は気相となって流出する。   The evaporator with a cold storage function (1) described above includes a compressor that uses a vehicle engine as a drive source, a condenser that cools the refrigerant discharged from the compressor (refrigerant cooler), and an expansion valve that depressurizes the refrigerant that has passed through the condenser ( Car air conditioner is configured with a decompressor. In the car air conditioner, when the compressor is operating, the low-pressure gas-liquid mixed-phase two-phase refrigerant compressed by the compressor and passed through the condenser and the expansion valve passes through the refrigerant inlet (7) to store the cold. It enters into the inlet header portion (5) of the attached evaporator (1), and flows into the first intermediate header portion (9) through the front all refrigerant circulation pipe (12). The refrigerant that has entered the first intermediate header portion (9) enters the second intermediate header portion (11), and then passes through the rear refrigerant flow pipe (12) into the outlet header portion (6). It flows in and flows out from the refrigerant outlet (8). Then, while the refrigerant flows through the refrigerant flow pipe (12), heat exchange is performed with the air passing through the ventilation gap (14), and the refrigerant flows out as a gas phase.

このとき、蓄冷材容器(15)内の蓄冷材が、蓄冷材容器(15)の左右両側の組(13)をなす前後両冷媒流通管(12)内を流れる冷媒によって冷却され、その結果蓄冷材が凝固して冷熱が蓄えられる。ここで、断熱材(18)の働きによって、高温の空気が蓄冷材容器(15)の後側面に直接当たることが防止されるとともに、高温の空気の有する熱が蓄冷材容器(15)内の蓄冷材に伝わることが防止され、蓄冷材に効率良く冷熱が蓄えられる。   At this time, the regenerator material in the regenerator container (15) is cooled by the refrigerant flowing in the front and rear refrigerant flow pipes (12) forming the left and right sets (13) of the regenerator container (15), and as a result The material solidifies and cold energy is stored. Here, the action of the heat insulating material (18) prevents the hot air from directly hitting the rear side of the cool storage material container (15), and the heat of the high temperature air in the cool storage material container (15). Transmission to the cold storage material is prevented, and cold energy is efficiently stored in the cold storage material.

圧縮機が停止した場合には、蓄冷材容器(15)内の蓄冷材の有する冷熱が、蓄冷材容器(15)の左右両側面から冷媒流通管(12)および当該冷媒流通管(12)にろう付されているコルゲートフィン(16)を介して通風間隙(14)を通過する空気に伝えられる。したがって、エバポレータ(1)を通過した風の温度が上昇したとしても、当該風は冷却されるので、冷房能力の急激な低下が防止される。   When the compressor is stopped, the cold heat of the cold storage material in the cold storage material container (15) is transferred from the left and right side surfaces of the cold storage material container (15) to the refrigerant flow pipe (12) and the refrigerant flow pipe (12). It is transmitted to the air passing through the ventilation gap (14) through the brazed corrugated fin (16). Therefore, even if the temperature of the wind that has passed through the evaporator (1) rises, the wind is cooled, so that a rapid decrease in the cooling capacity is prevented.

図4に示す蓄冷材容器(20)の場合、蓄冷材容器(20)の厚み方向の寸法である容器高さは通風間隙(14)の左右方向の幅よりも低くなっており、蓄冷材容器(20)の片面が、1つの通風間隙(14)を形成する左右両側の組(13)のうちいずれか一方の組(13)を構成する前後両冷媒流通管(12)の片面にろう付されている。また、蓄冷材容器(20)の他面と、1つの通風間隙(14)を形成する左右両側の組(13)のうち他方の組(13)を構成する前後両冷媒流通管(12)との間に、両面にろう材層を有するアルミニウムブレージングシートからなるコルゲートフィン(21)が配置されて蓄冷材容器(20)および前後両冷媒流通管(12)にろう付されている。   In the case of the cool storage material container (20) shown in FIG. 4, the container height, which is the dimension in the thickness direction of the cool storage material container (20), is lower than the width in the left-right direction of the ventilation gap (14). One side of (20) is brazed to one side of both the front and rear refrigerant flow pipes (12) constituting one set (13) of the left and right side sets (13) forming one ventilation gap (14). Has been. The other side of the cool storage material container (20) and the front and rear refrigerant flow pipes (12) constituting the other set (13) of the left and right set (13) forming one ventilation gap (14), Between them, corrugated fins (21) made of an aluminum brazing sheet having brazing material layers on both sides are disposed and brazed to the cold storage material container (20) and the front and rear refrigerant flow pipes (12).
