- the air conditioner piping assembly process it can be assembled into a single unit before being installed into the air conditioner's piping, resulting in high assembly efficiency.
- the principle of refrigerant flow control in the piping scheme of this embodiment is as follows: In the air conditioner's cooling mode, the refrigerant flows to the second three-way pipe 700 after being cooled by the outdoor heat exchanger 300. At this time, the refrigerant flow direction has two options: flowing to the sixth port 703 or flowing to the fourth port 701.
- the installation direction of the one-way valve 800 is such that the sixth port 703 is connected to the first port 601.
- the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 900 between the fourth port 701 and the third port 603 is zero, which prevents the refrigerant from flowing, so that the electronic expansion valve 900 does not throttle and does not affect the refrigerant flow.
- the refrigerant flows through the one-way valve 800 to the first port 601, then to the second port 602. At this point, the refrigerant has two options: flow to the fine shut-off valve or to the third port 603. Since the electronic expansion valve 900 between the fourth port 701 and the third port 603 is at zero opening, it prevents refrigerant flow and ensures that the electronic expansion valve 900 does not throttle, thus not affecting the refrigerant flow rate. The refrigerant flows to the fine shut-off valve, then enters the thermostatic expansion valve 200 for throttling, and finally evaporates in the indoor heat exchanger 100 before returning to the compressor 400 through the four-way valve 500, completing the refrigeration cycle.
- the refrigerant in the air conditioning heating mode, the refrigerant enters the fine shut-off valve and then flows to the first three-way pipe 600. At this time, the refrigerant can flow to either the first port 601 or the third port 603.
- the one-way valve 800 is installed in a direction that blocks the flow from the first port 601 to the sixth port 703. After the refrigerant flows to the first port 601, it can no longer flow to the sixth port 703. Therefore, the refrigerant flows to the third port 603.
- the electronic expansion valve 900 When the electronic expansion valve 900 is open normally, it controls the refrigerant flow, thus regulating the refrigerant supply. After flowing out of the electronic expansion valve 900, the refrigerant flows to the fourth port 701 and the fifth port 702.
