    Abstract: A refrigeration cycle device includes a high-pressure side heat exchanger, a low-pressure side heat exchanger, a temperature-adjustment target device to be temperature-adjusted with a high-pressure side refrigerant, an exterior heat exchanger exchanging heat between the high-pressure side refrigerant or a low-pressure side refrigerant and outside air, a switching portion configured to switch between a heat dissipation mode in which the high-pressure side refrigerant dissipates heat into the outside air in the exterior heat exchanger and a heat absorption mode in which the low-pressure side refrigerant absorbs heat from the outside air in the exterior heat exchanger, a cooling request operation portion, and a controller configured to control an operation of the switching portion to perform the heat absorption mode when the cooling request operation portion operates to request cooling of the air and the temperature-adjustment target device needs to be warmed up.

    Abstract: A refrigeration cycle device includes: a first expansion valve that decompresses a refrigerant flowing out of a high-pressure side heat exchanger; an exterior heat exchanger that exchanges heat between the refrigerant flowing out of the first expansion valve and outside air; a second expansion valve that decompresses the refrigerant flowing out of the exterior heat exchanger; a low-pressure side heat exchanger arranged in series with the exterior heat exchanger; a cooler core that exchanges heat between the heat medium cooled by the low-pressure side heat exchanger and air to be blown into a vehicle interior to cool the air; and a controller configured to switch between a heat absorption mode and a heat dissipation mode by adjusting an amount of decompression in each of the first expansion valve and the second expansion valve.

    Abstract: A refrigeration cycle device includes a compressor, an air-refrigerant heat exchanger that exchanges heat between air and refrigerant, an expansion valve decompressing the refrigerant, a heat medium-refrigerant heat exchanger that exchanges heat between a heat medium and the refrigerant, a cold-heat utilization device that utilizes cold heat of the heat medium, and a hot-heat utilization device that utilizes hot heat of the heat medium. A refrigerant flow switching valve is provided to switch between a heat-medium cooling mode of cooling the heat medium in the heat medium-refrigerant heat exchanger, and a heat-medium heating mode of heating the heat medium in the heat medium-refrigerant heat exchanger. In addition, a heat medium flow switching device is provided such that, in the heat-medium cooling mode, the heat medium circulates between the heat medium-refrigerant heat exchanger and the cold-heat utilization device, and that in the heat-medium heating mode, the heat medium circulates between the heat medium-refrigerant heat exchanger and the hot-heat utilization device.

    Abstract: A refrigeration cycle device has a compressor, a radiator, a decompressor, an evaporator, a heat medium cooling evaporator, a cooling target device, a detector, and a controller. The heat medium cooling evaporator cools a cooling heat medium by performing a heat exchange between the refrigerant decompressed in the decompressor and the cooling heat medium. The cooling heat medium cools the cooling target device. The detector detects a subcooling state of the cooling target device having a temperature lower than or equal to a reference temperature. Upon the detection of the subcooling state in the cooling target device by the detector, the controller increases the degree of superheat of the refrigerant flowing out of the heat medium cooling heat exchanger as compared to the degree of superheat of the refrigerant flowing out of the heat medium cooling heat exchanger when the detector does not detect the subcooling state.

    Abstract: A flow path switching valve includes a rotatable portion, a packing portion and a valve main body. The valve main body includes: a valve chamber that receives the rotatable portion and the packing portion; an inflow hole; and an outflow hole. The packing portion is configured to be positioned at a predetermined position, at which the packing portion closes an outflow-hole opening end of the outflow hole, in response to rotation of the rotatable portion. When the packing portion is positioned at the predetermined position, the packing portion is urged against a main-body seal portion in a radial direction of a valve axis by a pressure of fluid in the valve chamber, which is higher than a pressure in the outflow hole.

    Abstract: A thermal management device includes a waste-heat supply device that supplies waste heat to a heat medium flowing through a second heat medium path portion, a heater core that exchanges heat between air and the heat medium, a switching valve that switches between a state in which the heat medium circulates between the heater core and a first heat medium path portion and a state in which the heat medium circulates between the heater core and the second heat medium path portion, an adjustment portion that adjusts a temperature of the heat medium in the first heat medium path portion, and a controller. The controller controls the adjustment portion such that the temperature of the heat medium in the first heat medium path portion is equal to or higher than a predetermined temperature when the switching valve circulates the heat medium between the heater core and the second heat medium path portion.
