Abstract
Ce dispositif à cycle frigorifique doit être appliqué à des dispositifs de climatisation. Le dispositif à cycle frigorifique est pourvu d'un compresseur (11), de premières unités de chauffage (12, 22, 12a) et de secondes unités de chauffage (14, 14a, 42). Le compresseur comprime et refoule un fluide frigorigène. En utilisant le fluide frigorigène refoulé du compresseur comme source de chaleur, les premières unités de chauffage chauffent l'air de soufflage devant être souffler vers un espace qui doit être climatisé. En utilisant le fluide frigorigène s'écoulant hors des premières unités de chauffage comme source de chaleur, les secondes unités de chauffage chauffent l'air de soufflage. Les secondes unités de chauffage sont disposées de façon à chauffer l'air de soufflage et à faire circuler l'air de soufflage vers le premier côté de l'unité de chauffage. Dans le mode de chauffage dans lequel l'air de soufflage doit être chauffé, l'air de soufflage est chauffé au moyen des premières unités de chauffage et des secondes unités de chauffage. Par conséquent, la présente invention permet de fournir un dispositif à cycle frigorifique capable de supprimer, avec une configuration simple, une détérioration des performances de chauffage d'unités de chauffage même si le mode de fonctionnement est commuté.
