Patent number: 4557850Abstract: A composition for absorption refrigeration which comprises a fluorinated hydrocarbon refrigerant, an amide or glycol ether solvent serving as an absorption liquid, and a phosphite stabilizer. The stabilizer is used in an amount of 0.05 to 0.5 wt % of the absorption liquid calculated as phosphorus, within which range the phosphite stabilizer can suitably protect the refrigerant and the absorption liquid from deteriorating and decomposing at high operation temperatures.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 1982Date of Patent: December 10, 1985Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Company, LimitedInventors: Eiji Ando, Yoshiki Goto, Kumiko Moriyama, Isao Takeshita, Kunio Hirao

Patent number: 4457143Abstract: An absorption type heat pump device including a generator for generating refrigerant vapor, a condenser, an evaporator, an expansion valve, an absorber, a solution pump, a passage member for leading strong solution from the generator to the absorber, and a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger and/or the passage member is provided with a portion in which a pressure drop is made larger than a drop in equilibrium pressure resulting from a temperature drop so as to perform flow control of the strong solution.Type: GrantFiled: April 1, 1983Date of Patent: July 3, 1984Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Isao Takeshita, Yoshiaki Yamamoto, Hiroyoshi Tanaka

Patent number: 4374468Abstract: An absorption type refrigeration system includes a main flow circuit, a first and a second auxiliary flow circuit. The main flow circuit includes a refrigerant generator containing a solution of evaporable refrigerant in a less evaporable solvent which is heated by solar energy. Pressurized vapor phase refrigerant is supplied to a main condenser and thence to a main evaporator and back to an absorber in which a low refrigerant content solution from the generator is converted to a high refrigerant content solution which is pumped to the generator for recirculation. An electrically driven compressor supplies vapor phase refrigerant through the first auxiliary flow circuit including a condenser, a diaphragm-operated expansion valve, and a first auxiliary evaporator which is arranged to cool the main condenser.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 1981Date of Patent: February 22, 1983Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial CompanyInventors: Isao Takeshita, Shiro Hozumi

Patent number: 4368624Abstract: A heat pump comprises an indoor heat exchanger, an outdoor heat exchanger and a reversal valve which directs vapor phase refrigerant from a generator to the indoor heat exchanger during heating mode and to the outdoor heat exchanger during cooling mode. The reversal valve directs evaporated refrigerant to an absorber where it is absorbed by a strong solution supplied from the generator to generate absorption heat and a weak solution is pumped to the refrigerant generator. An indoor radiator and an outdoor radiator are connected in a closed loop water flow circuit during heating mode. A section of the water flow circuit passes through the absorber to extract heat therefrom to warm the indoor air by the indoor radiator.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 1981Date of Patent: January 18, 1983Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Company, LimitedInventor: Isao Takeshita

Patent number: 4285208Abstract: According to the present invention, in a hybrid type refrigerating cycle having a compressor disposed between a refrigerant vapor generator of an absorption type refrigeration cycle and a condenser, a refrigerant reservoir is disposed after the condenser. The refrigerant liquid level inside the refrigerant reservoir is detected to properly control the start of operation or the suspending of operation of the compressor thereby to end wasteful power consumption, thus ensuring smoother operation of the refrigerating machine.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 1980Date of Patent: August 25, 1981Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Isao Takeshita, Shiro Hozumi, Nobuhiko Wakamatsu

Patent number: 4207744Abstract: The present invention relates to an improvement of a solar refrigeration system. The solar refrigeration system has been improved by combining a solar collector-generator and a heat exchanger into one unit to increase the performance efficiency of the system by eliminating heat losses. The solar collector-generator comprises a tube and header arrangement including a plurality of double-walled tubes, each consisting of an outer pipe and an inner pipe, the inner pipe defining a passage for a high temperature refrigerant-lean or weak solution, whereas, the outer and inner tubes defining therebetween a passage for a low temperature refrigerant-rich or strong solution.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 1978Date of Patent: June 17, 1980Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Company, LimitedInventors: Isao Takeshita, Nobuhiko Wakamatsu, Eiji Ando, Hiroyoshi Tanaka

Patent number: 4178989Abstract: A system to accomplish both air cooling and air heating of indoor space by utilizing solar energy. In principle the disclosed system is an absorption refrigeration system, wherein a solution of an evaporable refrigerant in a less evaporable solvent is passed through a solar collector-generator, but the system has additional fluid passages with the provision of changeover valves arranged so as to pass the refrigerant in heated and vaporized state from the collector-generator to an indoor heat exchanger, bypassing the condenser of the refrigerator, thereby to accomplish air heating and return the refrigerant in liquid state from the heat exchanger to the collector-generator, bypassing the absorber of the refrigerator.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 1978Date of Patent: December 18, 1979Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Isao Takeshita, Nobuhiko Wakamatsu, Eiji Ando, Hiroyoshi Tanaka, Shiro Hozumi

Patent number: 4051369Abstract: A method for inspecting a nuclear fuel rod or irradiation capsule in which a heat transfer medium consisting of a liquid metal having a radioactive element uniformly admixed therewith is charged, e.g. poured, into a gap defined between the nuclear fuel material and the sleeve enclosing the fuel material in the nuclear fuel rod or into gaps defined between the nuclear fuel material and the innermost tube and between the adjacent tubes in an irradiation capsule comprising a plurality of concentric tubes enclosing the nuclear fuel material in multiple layers. A film sensitive to the radioactive element is wound about the sleeve of the nuclear fuel rod or about the outermost tube of the capsule, and the conditions of the film after the film has been exposed to the radioactive element are detected.A heat transfer medium for use in the method which may be sodium or NaK having .sup.24 Na admixed uniformly therewith.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 1975Date of Patent: September 27, 1977Assignee: Japan Atomic Energy Research InstituteInventor: Isao Takeshita
