Abstract

PURPOSE:To dispense with a seat heater by setting up both indoor and outdoor machines on the underfloor of a vehicle, and at times of heating operation on low outside temperature and frosting of an outdoor side heat exchanger, closing an exhaust passage and a fresh air inlet of the outdoor machine, while operating a heater additionally installed in the outdoor machine. CONSTITUTION:When a control part judges that the outside air temperature is low and there is no heat necessary for heating in the outside air at the time of heating operation, an electric heater 19 set up at each suction side of outdoor side heat exchangers 13a, 13b is turned on, while each louver cover 26 installed in a fresh air inlet and an exhaust outlet of outdoor machines 6a, 6b is fully opened. Simultaneously both on-off valves 20a, 20b are opened and a damper 27 is opened as well, forming a loop-form air duct there. With this formation, a refrigerant discharged out of compressors 10a, 10b passes through these outdoor heat exchangers 13a, 13b heated by the electric heater 19, thereby heating air circulating in a loop-form passage without any loss. Consequently, heating can be effected by a refrigerating cycle without installing any seat heater.

(Prior art) In a Heidetsu car type vehicle with storage space under the floor,
A heat pump type air conditioner capable of cooling and heating operation will be installed in the housing space, but due to the need to insert the air conditioner into the housing space with limited height and depth between the frame members that make up the window frame of the car body, the air conditioner will not be installed.

Therefore, when installing in a Heidetsu car, it is recommended to use separate air conditioners (divided into an indoor unit and an outdoor unit) that are individually small, for example, a combination of one indoor unit and two outdoor units. Air conditioners are installed in accommodation spaces.

However, with heat pump type air conditioners, the heating capacity during heating operation at low outside temperatures is significantly reduced, and depending on the outside temperature, not only is it not possible to provide good heating, but also frost may form on the outdoor heat exchanger of the outdoor unit ( When the humidity is high)

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, in the case where an auxiliary heater is provided, the capacity of the refrigeration cycle is considerably reduced, and therefore, a decrease in the blowing temperature of the indoor unit during frost formation is unavoidable. In addition, defrosting operation cannot be expected to have a heating effect while driving, so the temperature inside the car will drop.
None of them were good.

(Function) According to the vehicle air conditioner of the present invention, for example, during heating operation, when the outside temperature is low, and when frost forms on the outdoor heat exchanger, the outside air intake port and the exhaust port are "closed" and the outdoor air conditioner is closed. A closed loop is constructed around the machine through an outdoor heat exchanger. Then, a heater that generates heat along with this closed loop heats the air circulating in the closed loop to provide heat to the outdoor heat exchanger. As a result, the heat from the heater is sent to the indoor unit to maintain hot air at a high blowout temperature.

That is, to explain the control system, 28 is the control section (
It consists of a microcomputer and its peripheral circuits, and corresponds to control means). And this control section 28
The devices of the outdoor units 6a and 6b are connected to each of the outdoor units 6a and 6b. In addition, the control unit 28 includes an exterior temperature sensor 29 (installed in a location where outside air flows) that detects the temperature outside the vehicle, and an interior temperature sensor 30 (installed in the interior 32 where the seat 31 is installed) that detects the temperature inside the vehicle. installation), outdoor heat exchanger 13
Outdoor heat exchanger temperature sensor 33 that detects the temperature of a and 13b
(installed in the outdoor heat exchangers 13a and 13b) are connected. Then, the control unit 28 controls whether the cooling or heating is performed at a temperature that does not cause a decrease in capacity, that is, for example, when the outside temperature is equal to or higher than "equilibrium temperature (temperature that is the balance point of load and capacity) + 5°C (margin)". Turn off the electric heater 19, close the on-off valves 20a and 20b, and open the lid 26 fully.
, the damper 27 is closed, and heating and cooling operation is performed using only the refrigeration cycle. That is, as shown in FIG. 5, the outdoor heat exchanger 13a.

The air passages 23 are switched in a direction to allow outside air to flow through the outdoor heat exchangers 13a and 13b, respectively, so that the outdoor heat exchangers 13a and 13b exchange heat with the outside air. In addition, the control unit 28 controls the electric heater 19 to rONJ when the temperature is lower than that for heating.

At the same time, the air passage 23 is switched to a direction in which the air 3b is circulated in a closed loop, and the air that circulates without contacting the outside air is heated by the electric heater 19, and the outdoor heat exchangers 13a and 13b are heated by the heat of the heater 19. I'm trying to get it replaced. In order to further improve efficiency, a refrigerant heating cycle is configured in which the refrigerant condensed in the indoor heat exchanger 8 is directly guided to the outdoor heat exchangers 13a and 13b through the bypass paths 21a and 21b.

The device is also operated when frost occurs on the device 13b. That is, the control unit 28 outputs temperature information from the outdoor heat exchanger temperature sensor 33 indicating that "frost formation" (frost formation begins when the outside temperature is 3 to 4 degrees Celsius) has occurred on the outdoor heat exchanger 13a. When this occurs, it is determined that defrosting is necessary, and a refrigerant heating cycle is configured to exchange heat with the previous heater heat.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, according to the present invention, the interior of the vehicle can be heated by the refrigeration cycle without reducing the heating capacity when the outside temperature is low or when the outside temperature is low. What's more, when the outside temperature is low, the heating operation continues as is when heating is done, and
The body side is heated by the heat flowing through the air ducts, creating a kind of underfloor heating condition, which can effectively heat the inside of the car. Furthermore, heat that is not absorbed by the outdoor heat exchanger is also conducted to the vehicle body.
Another advantage is that the heater heat can be effectively used for space heating.
