  • Patent number: 10168079
    Abstract: When a refrigerant flow-path switch performs switching to a first refrigerant flow path, an interior condenser heating air blown into an interior as a first temperature-adjustment subject and an auxiliary heat exchanger are connected in parallel, and the auxiliary heat exchanger heats air blown to a battery as a second temperature-adjustment subject. In contrast, when the refrigerant flow-path switch performs switching to a second refrigerant flow path, an interior evaporator cooling air blown into the interior and the auxiliary heat exchanger are connected in parallel, and the auxiliary heat exchanger cools the air blown to the battery. With this arrangement, one common auxiliary heat exchanger can cool or heat the air for the battery, thereby leading to reduction in size of an entire refrigeration cycle device.

  • Publication number: 20170242572
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a setting value input unit, a first memory, and a second memory. The setting value input unit displays a setting item selection screen for selecting a setting item for which a setting value is to be input, displays, in response to selection of a setting item on the setting item selection screen, a setting value input screen for inputting a setting value of the setting item, and receives a setting value. The first memory stores an additional program for implementing a newly added additional function. The second memory stores a plug-in program which is configured to be able to dynamically cooperate with a system program that controls the entire information processing apparatus and which contains information for inputting a setting value necessary to implement the additional function.

  • Patent number: 9738133
    Abstract: A refrigeration cycle device includes an air heat exchanger that heats air to be blown into an interior of a vehicle compartment using refrigerant discharged from a compressor, a high-stage side expansion valve decompressing the refrigerant flowing out of the air heat exchanger, and a battery heat exchanger that heats air to be blown to a battery using the refrigerant decompressed by the high-stage side expansion valve. In an air heating-warming up mode of heating the air for the interior and the air for the battery, a refrigerant discharge capacity of the compressor is controlled such that an air temperature for the interior approaches a target air temperature, and an opening degree of the high-stage side expansion valve is controlled such that a battery temperature becomes within a predetermined reference temperature range. A selector switch allows a passenger to select which operation of air conditioning or warming-up is prioritized.

  • Patent number: 9649908
    Abstract: A heat pump cycle includes a refrigerant circuit and a coolant circuit. A first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger are disposed between the refrigerant circuit and the coolant circuit. The first heat exchanger includes an exterior heat exchanger that functions as an evaporator in a heating operation, and a radiator for radiating heat of a coolant. The second heat exchanger transmits a heat of high-pressure refrigerant to the coolant in the heating operation. A temperature of refrigerant within the second heat exchanger is higher than a temperature of refrigerant within the first heat exchanger. The heat obtained from the second heat exchanger is supplied to the first heat exchanger through the coolant. Further, the heat obtained from the second heat exchanger is stored in the coolant. In defrosting operation, the coolant that has stored the heat therein is supplied to the first heat exchanger.

  • Patent number: 9623708
    Abstract: A pneumatic tire comprises a tread portion provided with a central main groove, an outboard shoulder main groove and an inboard shoulder main groove extending continuously in the tire circumferential direction. The central main groove and the inboard shoulder main groove are each connected to grooves and/or sipes. The outboard shoulder main groove is widest and not connected to any grooves inclusive of a sipe or a very narrow groove. On both sides of the outboard shoulder main groove, there are formed sloping surfaces extending from the respective groove edges and merging into the tread surface. The width of each sloping surface is more than the depth thereof.
