Patent number: 6615603Abstract: Heat is absorbed from a first heat emitter and a second heat emitter is cooled by an adsorption type refrigerator operating by that absorbed heat. When the amount of emission of heat of the first heat emitter exceeds a predetermined amount of heat, the heat absorbed in the heat medium by a first heat collector is discharged to the outside air by an outdoor unit without being supplied to the adsorbent of the refrigerator. On the other hand, when the amount of emission of heat of the first heat emitter falls below a predetermined amount, the heat medium which had been supplied to a first heat exchanger for heating the adsorbent is switched to return to the first heat collector without flowing to the outdoor unit.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2002Date of Patent: September 9, 2003Assignee: Denso CorporationInventors: Masaaki Tanaka, Shigeo Numazawa, Katsuya Ishii, Hideaki Sato, Shin Honda, Yoshiyuki Okamoto, Junichiro Kanamori, Tadayoshi Terao

Patent number: 6106972Abstract: A cooling apparatus communicates through a communicating pipe with an inside space of an airtight casing in which a plurality of battery cells are hermetically held. The cooling apparatus and the inside space of the airtight casing are filled with high boiling point coolant. The coolant absorbs heat developed by the plurality of battery cells in the airtight casing so that it evaporates. The evaporated (gaseous) coolant rises toward the cooling apparatus and is condensed in the cooling apparatus. Then the condensed (liquid) coolant returns to around the battery cells by its self-weight. Accordingly, the battery cells are uniformly and efficiently cooled not to have variation in temperature therein.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 1998Date of Patent: August 22, 2000Assignee: Denso CorporationInventors: Akihisa Kokubo, Katsuya Ishii, Keiichiro Banzai
