Abstract

PURPOSE:To obviate a liquid receiver as an independent constituting part and improve service property upon dismantling service of an air-conditioning cycle by connecting the main body of the liquid receiver detachably to and integrally with one of header pipes so as to be neighbored to the header pipe. CONSTITUTION:Accumulated refrigerant solution flows through a refrigerant passage 2n from an outlet side union if, provided below an outlet side header pipe 1b, and a refrigerant passage hole 2c, provided below the ear 2k of the main body 2a of the liquid receiver, then, flows into the inner part of a cylindrical body 2a or the tank of the liquid receiver main body 2a through a refrigerant passage hole 2p, provided above the ear 2k of the liquid receiver. The refrigerant, entered the liquid receiver main body 2a, passes through drying agent 2b and the refrigerant solution is accumulated at the lower part of the liquid receiver main body 2a whereby gas is separated from liquid. The separated refrigerant solution is sucked up by a suck-up pipe 2d, then, flows through a connecting pipe and is circulated through an evaporator. The liquid receiver main body 2a is connected detachably to and integrally with the outlet side header pipe 1b of a condenser through bolts.

In the above embodiment, the main body 2a of the condenser 2 is installed parallel to the header pipe 1b of the condenser 1, so if the condenser 1 is installed diagonally due to the installation space of the vehicle, the receiver main body 2a is similarly installed diagonally, and as a result, due to the gas-liquid separability of the liquid receiver main body 2a, the liquid refrigerant that accumulates inside the tank of the liquid receiver main body 2a accumulates obliquely. Therefore, the gas refrigerant is easily sucked into the suction pipe 2d. Therefore, in this embodiment, the upper mounting bracket 1g of the outlet side header pipe 1b is replaced with a mounting bracket 1h having a long groove shaped like an arc with the outlet side union 1f as the center, as shown in FIG. By fixing the mounting bracket 1h to the ear part 2 by inserting the liquid receiver body 2a into the outlet side union 1 with respect to the condenser 1 installed diagonally.
Attach in the vertical direction rotated around f. The lower mounting bracket 1n has a shape having a recess that matches the inclination direction of the header pipe 1b. As a result, in this embodiment, the liquid receiver body always faces in the vertical direction, so that the gas-liquid separation property is improved.
