Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate the directional property of flow of refrigerant in a receiver and simplify a refrigerant circuit by a method wherein one end of a pipeline from an expansion means and one end of another pipeline from an outdoor heat exchanger are connected to and opened on the bottom part of a receiver main body. SOLUTION: The main body 31 of a receiver is constituted of a reatriction vessel 32, whose lower part is opened, and a lid body 33, attached to the lower opening of the vessel 32. One end of a refrigerant pipeline 35 from an expansion means is connected to one opening 34 provided in the lid body 33 while one end of another refrigerant pipeline 37 from an outdoor heat exchanger is connected to the other opening 36 of the same and the ends of the refrigerant pipelines 35, 37 are opened at the bottom part of the main body 31 of the receiver respectively. In this case, a strainer 38 is installed at an opening part 34 while drying agent 39 is installed in the main body 31 of the receiver at a predetermined height from the bottom part of the same. According to this method, the directional property of flow of refrigerant is eliminated in the receiver 30 and, accordingly, a refrigerant circuit can be simplified.
