DISTRIBUTOR, HEAT EXCHANGER AND AIR CONDITIONER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18042674 titled 'DISTRIBUTOR, HEAT EXCHANGER AND AIR CONDITIONER
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a distributor used in a refrigeration system.
- The distributor has multiple flow paths for the refrigerant.
- The refrigerant flows in a first direction from an inflow unit towards an outflow unit.
- Two second flow paths branch off from the first flow path.
- Two third flow paths are provided for the refrigerant to flow in the opposite direction.
- Two fourth flow paths protrude from the main body in a direction intersecting the third flow paths.
- Two fifth flow paths allow the refrigerant to flow in the first direction again.
Original Abstract Submitted
A distributor includes at least: a first flow path through which refrigerant flowing in from a refrigerant inflow unit flows in a first direction toward a heat transfer tube disposed on the side of a refrigerant outflow unit; two second flow paths branched from the first flow path; two third flow paths, through each of which the refrigerant flows in a second direction opposite to the first direction; two fourth flow paths, each of which is formed to protrude from a main body toward the second direction and through each of which the refrigerant flows in a third direction intersecting the two third flow paths; and two fifth flow paths, through each of which the refrigerant flows in the first direction.
