Abstract: A remote control device configured communicate with an air conditioner or a heat pump includes a touch panel having an electrode unit, a liquid crystal display, and a casing accommodating the touch panel and the liquid crystal display. The casing has a back surface part and a front surface part. The liquid crystal display is disposed to overlap the touch panel as seen from a front surface part side. The electrode unit has a first electrode section to detect a touched position, and a second electrode section that may function as an antenna to perform wireless communication with another communication device. The first and second electrode sections are configured and arranged to be nearer to the front surface part than to the back surface part inside the casing, and to be disposed so as not to overlap with each other as seen from the front surface part side.

Abstract: A trailer refrigeration system comprising: an electricity generator (22); an electricity-generator engine (21) for driving the electricity generator (22); a converter (23) for converting ac electric power generated by the electricity generator (22) into dc electric power; an inverter (24, 25, 26) including inverters (24), (25), (26) each for converting dc electric power from the converter (23) into ac electric power; a refrigerant circuit (30) having an electric compressor (31) and a fan (35, 36) including fans (35), (36), the electric compressor (31), the fan (35), and the fan (36) being driven respectively by ac electric power from inverters (24), (25), (26); and a control means (40) for individually controlling the speed of rotation of the electric compressor (31), the fan (35), and the fan (36).

Abstract: An air conditioner is disposed with partition members that partition a space on an upstream side of a heat exchanger from spaces on both sides of the heat exchanger where refrigerant pipes are installed.

Abstract: The present invention allows an optimal quantity of refrigerant to be quickly and easily charged into the refrigeration device. In a refrigeration device that includes a refrigerant cycle circuit (A) connecting an outdoor unit (X) and indoor units (Y) via refrigerant lines (6), (7), a refrigerant charging device (10) that charges refrigerant to the refrigerant cycle circuit (A) in the cooling operational state is detachably connected to the liquid side refrigerant line (6) (the high pressure liquid line during cooling operations) that links the outdoor unit (X) with the indoor units (Y). In this way, when the refrigerant charging device (10) and the liquid line refrigerant line (6) are linked together and the refrigerant cycle circuit (A) is in the cooling operational state, refrigerant charging can be carried out from the refrigerant charging device (10) to the refrigerant cycle circuit (A) via the liquid side refrigerant line (6) (the high pressure liquid line).

Abstract: A cylinder body 2 is sandwiched between a front head 7 and a rear head 8 and a high pressure port 10 is formed in the front head 7. A roller 3 of a piston 5 is configured such that top and bottom end surfaces thereof have different widths. The roller 3 is arranged such that one of the end surfaces having a larger width faces the front head 7.

Abstract: In a scroll compressor, a sliding direction of a Oldham coupling is defined such that an acting direction of an inertia force of the Oldham coupling is substantially opposite to an acting direction of a reaction force by gas compression, and thereby a range of fluctuation of a total torque of a first rotational torque acting on an orbiting scroll by the reaction force of gas compression and a second rotational torque of sliding movement of the Oldham coupling becomes smaller than that of the first rotational torque to suppress a noise and vibration caused by fluctuation of a rotational torque of the orbiting scroll without any limited designing of an involute shape thereof.
