Publication number: 20150380785Abstract: In a temperature regulation device, when a control device determines that warming-up operation of an assembled battery is necessary, and when a humidity of an air detected by a temperature/humidity sensor is equal to or lower than a predetermined humidity, a conditioned air that has been drawn from a vehicle interior and heated is blown to the assembled battery through a battery guide passage. When the humidity of the detected air exceeds the predetermined humidity, an air that has been drawn from a vehicle exterior and heated by a vehicle air conditioning apparatus is blown to the assembled battery through the battery guide passage.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 15, 2014Publication date: December 31, 2015Applicant: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Masayuki TAKEUCHI, Takashi YAMANAKA

Patent number: 9180750Abstract: A vehicular thermo-control device adjusts a temperature of a battery. The device has a primary system through which cooling water circulates, and a secondary system through which a refrigerant circulates. The primary system has a heat exchanger which performs heat exchange between the battery and the cooling water, and a heat exchanger which performs heat exchange between the cooling water and an ambient air. The secondary system is a refrigerating cycle. Both heat exchangers on a high temperature side and a low temperature side of the refrigerating cycle are thermally coupled with the primary system. Only one heat exchanger provides heat exchange with the ambient air. The pump of the primary system can switch circulating direction of the cooling water. A controller controls devices to perform cooling and heating operation.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2012Date of Patent: November 10, 2015Assignee: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Hiroshi Kishita, Masayuki Takeuchi, Hideaki Okawa, Seiji Inoue, Nobuharu Kakehashi, Koji Miura

Publication number: 20150295285Abstract: In an operation mode for heating battery air, a refrigerant passage switching portion switches over to a first refrigerant passage in which a refrigerant including gas refrigerant flowing out of an interior condenser flows into an auxiliary heat exchanger through a first pipe having a relatively large passage cross-sectional area and a liquid refrigerant flowing out of the auxiliary heat exchanger flows to an inlet of an exterior heat exchanger through a second pipe having a relatively small passage cross-sectional area. Meanwhile, in an operation mode for cooling the battery air, the refrigerant passage switching portion switches over to a second refrigerant passage in which a liquid refrigerant flowing out of the exterior heat exchanger flows into the auxiliary heat exchanger through the second pipe and a gas refrigerant flowing out of the auxiliary heat exchanger flows to a suction port of a compressor through the first pipe.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 2, 2013Publication date: October 15, 2015Applicant: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Masayuki Takeuchi, Takashi Yamanaka

Publication number: 20150121939Abstract: When a refrigerant flow-path switch performs switching to a first refrigerant flow path, an interior condenser heating air blown into an interior as a first temperature-adjustment subject and an auxiliary heat exchanger are connected in parallel, and the auxiliary heat exchanger heats air blown to a battery as a second temperature-adjustment subject. In contrast, when the refrigerant flow-path switch performs switching to a second refrigerant flow path, an interior evaporator cooling air blown into the interior and the auxiliary heat exchanger are connected in parallel, and the auxiliary heat exchanger cools the air blown to the battery. With this arrangement, one common auxiliary heat exchanger can cool or heat the air for the battery, thereby leading to reduction in size of an entire refrigeration cycle device.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2013Publication date: May 7, 2015Inventors: Masayuki Takeuchi, Seiji Inoue, Takashi Yamanaka
