==REFRIGERANT MODULE OF INTEGRATED THERMAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17972323 titled 'REFRIGERANT MODULE OF INTEGRATED THERMAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes a refrigerant module for a vehicle's thermal management system. The module is designed to compactify and modularize the components related to the refrigerant, such as the compressor, condenser, expansion valve, evaporator, and accumulator. The refrigerant circulates through these components to regulate the vehicle's temperature. 

* The refrigerant module includes a compressor with a suction port and a discharge port.
* It also includes a condenser with a suction port and a discharge port.
* An expansion valve with a suction port and a discharge port is part of the module.
* The module includes an evaporator with a suction port and a discharge port.
* An accumulator with a suction port and a discharge port is also included in the module.
* The module features a connection passage that allows the refrigerant discharged from the accumulator to flow back to the compressor.

Potential applications of this technology:
* Automotive industry: The refrigerant module can be used in vehicles to efficiently manage the thermal system and regulate temperature.
* HVAC systems: The compact and modular design of the refrigerant module can be applied in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems for buildings.

Problems solved by this technology:
* Compactification: The modular design of the refrigerant module allows for a more efficient use of space, making it easier to integrate into vehicles or HVAC systems.
* Simplified installation: The modular components can be easily installed and replaced, reducing installation time and maintenance efforts.
* Improved thermal management: The refrigerant module optimizes the circulation of the refrigerant, enhancing the overall thermal management system's performance.

Benefits of this technology:
* Space-saving: The compact design of the refrigerant module allows for more efficient use of limited space in vehicles or buildings.
* Easy maintenance: The modular components can be easily accessed and replaced, simplifying maintenance and reducing downtime.
* Enhanced performance: The optimized circulation of the refrigerant improves the thermal management system's efficiency and effectiveness.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A refrigerant module of an integrated thermal management system of a vehicle is provided in which components of the module may be compactified by modularizing the components related to a refrigerant. In the refrigerant module of the integrated thermal management system for the vehicle in which the refrigerant module is configured such that a refrigerant circulates through a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve, an evaporator, and an accumulator, the refrigerant module includes the compressor having a first suction port and a first discharge port, the condenser having a second suction port and a second discharge port, the expansion valve having a third suction port and a third discharge port, the evaporator having a fourth suction port and a fourth discharge port, the accumulator having a fifth suction port and a fifth discharge port, and a connection passage enabling the refrigerant discharged from the accumulator to flow to the compressor.
