摘要:
A refrigerator having a refrigerator evaporator and a freezer evaporator, capable of controlling the refrigerant circulation correctly and reducing the delay in the refrigerant behaviors. When freezer mode is to be switched to refrigerator mode, at the end of the freezer mode, a refrigerant recovery run recovers the refrigerant from the freezer evaporator and feeds it to a condenser before the refrigerator mode by running a compressor while blocking the refrigerant to the freezer evaporator and by running a compressor fan.
摘要:
A refrigerator has a two-stage compressor and means for switching refrigerant flow between a primary channel and a bypassing channel at downstream of a condenser that is connected with an outlet of the two-stage compressor. The primary channel extends from a first exit of the means for switching, through a first capillary tube and a first evaporator, to a gas-liquid separator, a gas-exit of which is connected with a second evaporator through a second capillary tube. The bypassing channel extends from a second exit of the means for switching, through a bypass capillary, to the gas-liquid separator. When flow of refrigerant in the second evaporator is substantially interrupted and so detected, refrigerant flow is switched to the bypassing channel, by means for controlling.

A refrigerator has a refrigerant circuit that is comprised of; a power-variable two-stage compressor, a variable throttler, which are computer controlled; and a first evaporator for fresh food compartments and a second evaporator for freezer compartments. Temperatures in the first and second evaporators are controlled independently from each other, by controlling throttling extent of the variable throttler. Temperature in the first evaporator is kept in a range not causing frost formation on surface of the first evaporator, for example in a range from −2° C. to 2° C., by controlling the throttling extent as well as the power of the compressor. In a preferred embodiment, the variable throttler is a pulse motor valve at downstream of a condenser and at upstream of the first evaporator.

To receiving satellite broadcasting waves, it is provided an antenna comprising: a first element connected to a first feed point of a hot side; a ground element connected to a second feed point of a ground side; a second element; and a third element. The second element is arranged substantially in parallel with the first element so as to be coupled to the first element. The third element is arranged to define a predetermined angle with the first element, with a vertex of the predetermined angle set to a vicinity of the first feed point and the second feed point. The first element has a linear shape so as to have an inductive property at a resonance frequency. The third element has a linear shape so as to have a capacitive property at the resonance frequency. The third element is connected to a ground-side end portion of the second element.
