  • Publication number: 20130145790
    Abstract: A heating/cooling device (1) is proposed for vehicles, in particular motor vehicles, with a compressor (3), a refrigerant circuit (5), a gas cooler (7), an evaporator (9), and with an expansion valve (37) arranged between the gas cooler (7) and evaporator (9) in the refrigerant circuit (5). The heating/cooling device (1) is distinguished in that the gas cooler (7) or the evaporator (9) is coupled with a liquid coolant circuit (13, 23) which cooperates with an interior heat exchanger (19) or an external air heat exchanger (27), or that the gas cooler (7) and the evaporator (9) are each coupled with an its own liquid coolant circuit (13, 23), wherein one of the liquid coolant circuits (13, 23) cooperates with the interior heat exchanger (19) and the other liquid coolant circuit (23, 13) cooperates with the external air heat exchanger (27).

  • Publication number: 20130146271
    Abstract: The proposal is for a heating/cooling device for vehicles, in particular motor vehicles with electric drive, having a refrigerant circuit, which comprises a compressor (3), a gas cooler (5), an evaporator (7) and an expansion valve arranged between the gas cooler (5) and the evaporator (7). The heating/cooling device is characterized in that the gas cooler (5) interacts with a first liquid coolant circuit (9), and the evaporator (7) interacts with a second liquid coolant circuit (11), wherein an interior heat exchanger (17) can be assigned to the first or the second liquid coolant circuit (9, 11), and wherein an external-air heat exchanger (19) can be assigned to the first or the second liquid coolant circuit (9, 11).
