Gary Giubilo, II has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Refrigeration apparatus and method
    Patent number: 9995514
    Abstract: A refrigeration apparatus that employs a refrigerant compressor has an expansion device coupled between an evaporator and a condenser. A first heat exchanger has (a) a main passage coupled between the evaporator and the inlet of the compressor, and (b) a complementary passage. This first heat exchanger may be a serpentine pipe inside a tank. A second heat exchanger has (a) a principal passage coupled between the condenser and the outlet of the compressor, and (b) an auxiliary passage. This second heat exchanger may be an inner and outer pair of coaxial pipes. The complementary passage of the first heat exchanger is coupled between a fluid pump and the auxiliary passage of the second heat exchanger. The auxiliary passage of the second heat exchanger is coupled between the fluid pump and the complementary passage of the first heat exchanger. A controller can operate the fluid pump based on measured parameters such as outside ambient temperature or compressor outlet pressure.
