【考案の詳細な説明】 本案は冷却装置の改良構成に関し、特に蒸発器

た。 This type of cooling device, which is conventionally used in so-called injection-type liquid coolers, cools water, drinking liquid, etc. in an aquarium by inserting the evaporator into the aquarium. It was more common to move things in and out. Therefore, the capillary tube and suction tube located between the evaporator section and the main body equipped with a refrigerant compressor, etc., bend or bend as the evaporator section moves. If they were tied together, their outer surfaces would rub against each other, and during long-term use, they would damage each other, or become tangled, resulting in poor bending performance. Furthermore, there was a concern that electrolytic corrosion might occur depending on the materials of the capillary tube and suction tube.

The main body of the cooling device is composed of an equipment section 2 containing internal components, and an evaporator 3, etc., which projects from the equipment section 2 and is spaced apart.
A discharge pipe 4 and a suction pipe 5 are connected from the equipment section 2 to both ends of the evaporator 3 to form a refrigerant cycle.
The extension is protruding.

跨つて配設している。 The suction pipe 5 that returns refrigerant gas from the evaporator 3 to the refrigerant compressor of the equipment section 2 is covered with a relatively thick cover 6 made of a flexible heat insulating material such as foamed polyethylene. are doing. The discharge pipe 4 discharges and supplies refrigerant to the condenser of the equipment section 2
is composed of a capillary reach tube or the like formed to have a diameter smaller than that of the suction pipe 5, and is separated from the insertion passage 7 for the suction pipe 5 formed in the cover 6, and is formed in a small diameter passage 8 formed at an appropriate position in the cover 6. The evaporator 3 is inserted into the evaporator 3 and connected to one end of the evaporator 3. The small-diameter passage 8 is formed to extend substantially parallel to the insertion passage 7, and is biased toward the insertion passage 7 from the outer surface of the cover 6 so as to be close to the insertion passage 7. That is, by arranging the small-diameter passage 8 biased toward the insertion passage 7 located at the approximate center of the cross-section of the cover 6, even if the suction pipe 5 and the discharge pipe 4 are inserted,
When bending the cover 6, the cover 6 can be easily bent over the entire 360° range. Reference numeral 9 denotes a support tube for preventing the connecting portions of the evaporator 3 and the tubes 4 and 5 from breaking, and is disposed astride the ends of the connecting portions of the tubes 4 and 5.

れるとともに、両管の絡まりは防止出来る。 The present invention is as described above, and since the outer circumferential surfaces of the discharge pipe and the suction pipe are covered with a heat insulating flexible cover, condensation is unlikely to occur. In addition, since both tubes are inserted through small diameter passages and insertion passages provided separately in the cover and supported separately, mutual friction between the two tubes due to bending and bending as the evaporator moves is avoided. At the same time, entanglement of both pipes can be prevented.

しかも前記両通路はカバー形成時に同時形成出
来、設計製作が容易であると共に、部品点数の削
減が計れる。 Furthermore, both of the passages can be formed simultaneously when forming the cover, making it easy to design and manufacture, and reducing the number of parts.
