Abstract

An absorption pipe structure of a compressor, capable of reducing vibration of the absorption pipe and making the machinery room small-sized, by making short the length of the absorption pipe connected with the compressor and forming the curved part formed in a proper diameter, is provided.

Independent Claims | See all claims (20)

1. 1. An absorption pipe structure of a compressor comprising: a compressor where vibration occurs; a four-way valve for switching between a cooling and a heating operations of an air conditioner; and an absorption pipe for getting a refrigerant to flow into the compressor from the four-way valve, more than one place of which is looped, and a height of a lowest end of which is positioned at a place which corresponds to one third of the whole height of the compressor.
2. 11. An absorption pipe structure of a compressor comprising: a compressor for compressing a refrigerant; a refrigerant supplying part for supplying a refrigerant to the compressor; and an absorption pipe for connecting the compressor with the refrigerant supplying part, wherein at least more than one part is looped and a diameter of a curved part at the looped part is less than three times that of the pipe.
3. 18. An absorption pipe structure of a compressor comprising: a compressor for compressing a refrigerant; a refrigerant supplying part for supplying a refrigerant to the compressor; and an absorption pipe for connecting the compressor with the refrigerant supplying part, wherein at least more than one part is looped and on a portion directly connected to the compressor, a straight pipe part whose length is less than four times the pipe's diameter is formed.
