Abstract: A refrigerant flow path unit includes: a unit body that includes plates that are laminated together, and has an interior in which a refrigerant flow path is formed; a refrigerant pipe; and a first brazing filler metal that joins the unit body to the refrigerant pipe. The plates of the unit body include: a first plate that has a first opening and is disposed at an end of the unit body in a first direction in which the plates are laminated; and a second plate that has a second opening that communicates with the first opening and is disposed second from the end of the unit body in the first direction. The refrigerant pipe is inserted into the first opening and the second opening.

Abstract: An air conditioner includes: a casing including a bottom plate; a refrigerant flow path unit housed inside the casing, and having an interior in which a refrigerant flow path is formed; a compressor installed on the bottom plate; and a shutoff valve that opens and closes to allow and block a flow of a refrigerant. The refrigerant flow path unit is supported at a distance from the bottom plate by a fixed-side member other than the compressor. The fixed-side member includes either one of: a mounting plate to which the shutoff valve is fixed, or a support plate to which the mounting plate is fixed.

Abstract: A refrigeration apparatus includes: a refrigerant flow path unit that comprises plates stacked together, and in which a refrigerant flow path is disposed; first components that are functional components each including a driving unit; second components other than functional components; and a casing accommodating the refrigerant flow path unit, and the first and second components. The first components and the second components constitute a refrigerant circuit. The refrigerant flow path unit: has a first surface and a second surface on both sides in a normal direction of the plates, and is disposed in the casing in a posture with the first surface and the second surface being upstanding. The first components are connected to the first surface. The second components are connected to the second surface. The refrigerant flow path unit includes joint tubes that connect pipes linked to the second components.

Abstract: A refrigerant pipe unit includes: a first plate; a second plate stacked on the first plate; and a control valve. One or both of the first plate and the second plate include a refrigerant flow path. The control valve includes: a valve body that includes a refrigerant passage communicating with the refrigerant flow path, rotates in the first plate, and changes a flow of a refrigerant in the refrigerant flow path with an amount of rotation of the valve body; and a driver that adjusts the amount of the rotation of the valve body.
