  • Publication number: 20110126575
    Abstract: There is disclosed a refrigerating apparatus which can more efficiently cool the inside of a chamber to an ultralow temperature. In a refrigerating apparatus R1 which condenses a refrigerant discharged from a compressor 14, reduces a pressure of the refrigerant by a capillary tube 18 and evaporates the refrigerant by an evaporator 13 to exert a cooling function, the capillary tube 18 is passed through a suction piping line 32 through which the refrigerant returning from the evaporator 13 to the compressor 14 flows, to constitute a double tube structure. Furthermore, the suction piping line 32 (a piping line 32A) formed in the double tube structure by passing the capillary tube 18 therethrough is surrounded with an insulating material 35.

  • Patent number: 7624586
    Abstract: An object is to provide a freezing device in which a safely-treatable incombustible mixed refrigerant can be used and which can realize an extremely low temperature of ?85° C. or less in chamber by a simple structure. The freezing device comprises a single refrigerant circuit in which the refrigerant discharged from a compressor is condensed and thereafter evaporated to exert a cooling function and which allows heat exchange between the evaporated refrigerant and the condensed refrigerant, wherein there is introduced into the refrigerant circuit a non-azeotropic mixed refrigerant containing R245fa, R600, R23 and R14; a non-azeotropic mixed refrigerant containing R245fa, R600, R116 and R14; a non-azeotropic mixed refrigerant containing R245fa, R600, R508A and R14; or a non-azeotropic mixed refrigerant containing R245fa, R600, R508B and R14.

  • Publication number: 20040123622
    Abstract: There are provided a compact and portable refrigerant recovery device which can easily recover a refrigerant present in a refrigeration circuit of a used-up household refrigerator or an extra-low temperature freezer which uses a low boiling point refrigerant at low costs, and a method for recovering a refrigerant by using the refrigerant recovery device. In the refrigerant recovery device comprising a refrigerant recovery tank which stores an activated carbon for adsorbing the refrigerant, the recovery tank is equipped with a detachable cap, and the activated carbon is wrapped in unwoven cloth finer than a grain diameter of the activated carbon, and stored in the recovery tank. The refrigerant recovery device is connected to the refrigeration circuit, a gas in the refrigerant recovery tank is vacuumed to be discharged before the refrigerant of the refrigeration circuit is recovered, and then the refrigerant is adsorbed on the activated carbon to be recovered.

  • Patent number: 4788829
    Abstract: A refrigeration system includes first and second refrigerant circuits each having a compressor, a condenser and an evaporator, each of the refrigerant circuits being charged with an organic refrigerant. The evaporator of the first refrigerant circuit is divided into a plurality of evaporator portions connected together in series. The condenser of the second refrigerant circuit is divided into condenser portions equal in number to the number of the evaporator portions of the first refrigerant circuit. The condenser portions of the second refrigerant circuit are paired with the evaporator portions of the first refrigerant circuit to provide heat exchangers. The refrigerant of the second refrigerant circuit is a mixture of refrigerants different in kind and in boiling point.
