[0186] 1. When not working, the drain valve 223 and the gas balance valve 224 are both closed.

[0187] 2. When it is determined that the current operating mode requires the start of refrigerant storage, the drain valve 223 and the gas balance valve 224 are both opened, and the refrigerant enters the refrigerant tank 220 under the action of the pressure difference.

[0188] 3. When it is determined that the current operating mode requires the refrigerant tank to be started to release refrigerant, the gas balance valve 224 is closed and the drain valve 223 is opened. The refrigerant inside the tank is discharged from the tank under the action of gravity and pressure difference and enters the pipeline circulation.

[0202] At this time, the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 and the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 function as condensers. The refrigerant discharged from the compressor 101 enters the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 and the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 through the first control valve 102 and the third control valve 103, respectively, for condensation. The condensed refrigerant then enters the first pipeline 3. The evaporated refrigerant returns to the gas-liquid separator 111 through the third pipeline 5 before entering the intake port of the compressor 101.

A portion of the refrigerant discharged from the compressor 101 passes through the first control valve 102 and the second control valve 103 and enters the first and second outdoor heat exchangers 105 and 107 for condensation. The condensed refrigerant then enters the first pipeline 3. The evaporated refrigerant returns to the gas-liquid separator 111 via the third pipeline and then enters the intake port of the compressor 101. The remaining portion of the refrigerant discharged from the compressor 101 passes through the second control valve 104 and enters the second pipeline 4.

The refrigerant condenses in the indoor heat exchanger 7 and / or the accumulator 201, and the condensed refrigerant is transported to the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 and the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 for evaporation.

[0206] At this point, both first outdoor heat exchanger 105 and second outdoor heat exchanger 107 function as evaporators. Refrigerant discharged from compressor 101 enters second pipeline 4 through second control valve 104. Intermediate-pressure refrigerant enters first and second outdoor heat exchangers 105, 107 through first pipeline 3 for evaporation. It then passes through first and third control valves 102, 103, and returns to gas-liquid separator 111 before entering the intake port of compressor 101.

[0207] Main body evaporation: Figure 5 As shown, the return port and the working port of the first control valve 102 are connected, and the inlet and the working port of the second control valve 104 are connected to transport part of the refrigerant to the indoor heat exchanger 7 and / or the accumulator 201 for condensation. The return port and the working port of the third control valve 103 are connected, and part of the refrigerant condenses in the indoor heat exchanger 7 and / or the accumulator 201. The condensed refrigerant is transported to the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 and the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 for evaporation. Part of the refrigerant evaporates in the indoor heat exchanger 7 and / or the accumulator 201, and the evaporated refrigerant is transported to the suction port of the compressor 101 through the third pipeline 5.

[0208] At this time, the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 and the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 both function as evaporators, receiving refrigerant return air from the evaporating indoor heat exchanger 7 and / or accumulator 201. The refrigerant discharged from the compressor 101 enters the second pipeline 4 through the second control valve 104. The medium-pressure refrigerant enters the first and second outdoor heat exchangers 105, 107 through the first pipeline 3, where it evaporates. After passing through the first and third control valves 102, 103, it returns to the gas-liquid separator 111 and then enters the intake port of the compressor 101. The refrigerant discharged from the indoor unit 7 and / or accumulator 201, which functions as an evaporator, returns to the gas-liquid separator 111 through the third pipeline 5 and then enters the intake port of the compressor 101.

[0209] Shutdown of the outdoor unit's heat exchanger: Figure 6 As shown, the inlet and the working port of the second control valve 104 are connected, and the refrigerant is transported to one of the indoor heat exchanger 7 and / or the accumulator 201 for condensation, and is evaporated in the other and then transported to the suction port of the compressor 101 through the third pipeline 5.

[0210] At this time, the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 and the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 are not operating. The refrigerant discharged from the compressor 101 passes through the second control valve 104 and the second pipeline 4 and enters the accumulator 201 and / or the indoor heat exchanger 7 serving as the condenser for condensation. The refrigerant discharged from the accumulator 201 and / or the indoor heat exchanger 7 serving as the evaporator returns to the gas-liquid separator 111 through the third pipeline 5 and then enters the suction port of the compressor 101.

The refrigerant discharged from the compressor 101 passes through the third control valve 103 and enters the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 for condensation. A portion then enters the first pipeline 3, while the remaining portion, after being throttled by the first outdoor expansion valve 106, enters the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 for evaporation. The remaining portion then passes through the first control valve 102 and returns to the gas-liquid separator 111 before entering the intake port of the compressor 101. Simultaneously, the refrigerant discharged from the indoor heat exchanger 7 and / or accumulator 201, acting as the evaporator, returns to the gas-liquid separator 111 through the third pipeline 5 before entering the intake port of the compressor 101.

[0213] Main condensation partition: such as Figure 8 As shown, the return port and the working port of the first control valve 102 are connected, and the inlet and the working port of the second control valve 104 are connected to transport part of the refrigerant to the indoor heat exchanger 7 and / or the accumulator 201 for condensation, the inlet and the working port of the third control valve 103 are connected, the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 serves as an evaporator, and the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 serves as a condenser.

[0214] At this time, the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 functions as an evaporator, and the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 functions as a condenser. A portion of the refrigerant discharged from the compressor 101 passes through the third control valve 103 and enters the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 for condensation. It is then divided into two parts: one enters the first pipeline 3, and the other, after being throttled by the second throttle component 106, enters the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 for evaporation. The other portion passes through the first control valve 102 and returns to the gas-liquid separator 111 before entering the intake port of the compressor 101. The remaining portion of the refrigerant discharged from the compressor 101 passes through the second control valve 104 and enters the second pipeline 4. Meanwhile, the refrigerant discharged from the indoor heat exchanger 7 and / or accumulator 201, acting as the evaporator, returns to the gas-liquid separator 111 through the third pipeline 5 before entering the intake port of the compressor 101.

[0215] Complete evaporation partition: such as Figure 9 As shown, the return port and the working port of the first control valve 102 are connected, and the inlet and the working port of the second control valve 104 are connected to transport part of the refrigerant to the indoor heat exchanger 7 and / or the accumulator 201 for condensation. The inlet and the working port of the third control valve 103 are connected, the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 serves as an evaporator, and the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 serves as a condenser. The refrigerant condensed in the indoor heat exchanger 7 and / or the accumulator 201 is transported to the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 through the first pipeline 3 for evaporation.

[0216] At this point, the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 functions as an evaporator, and the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 functions as a condenser. A portion of the refrigerant discharged from the compressor 101 enters the second pipeline 4 through the second control valve 104, while the remaining portion enters the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 through the third control valve 103 for condensation. The medium-pressure refrigerant passes through the first pipeline 3 and merges with the condensed refrigerant in the second outdoor heat exchanger 107, then enters the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 for evaporation. It then passes through the first control valve 102, returns to the gas-liquid separator 111, and then enters the intake port of the compressor 101.

[0217] Main evaporation partition: such as Figure 10 As shown, the return port and the working port of the first control valve 102 are connected, and the inlet and the working port of the second control valve 104 are connected to transport part of the refrigerant to the indoor heat exchanger 7 and / or the accumulator 201 for condensation. The inlet and the working port of the third control valve 103 are connected, the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 serves as an evaporator, and the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 serves as a condenser. After evaporating in the indoor heat exchanger 7 and / or the accumulator 201, part of the refrigerant is transported to the suction port of the compressor 101 through the third pipeline 5.

[0218] At this time, the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 functions as an evaporator, and the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 functions as a condenser. A portion of the refrigerant discharged from the compressor 101 enters the second pipeline 4 through the second control valve 104, while the remaining portion enters the second outdoor heat exchanger 107 through the third control valve 103 for condensation. The medium-pressure refrigerant passes through the first pipeline 3 and merges with the condensed refrigerant in the second outdoor heat exchanger 107, then enters the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 for evaporation. It then passes through the refrigeration four-way valve 102 and returns to the gas-liquid separator 111 before entering the intake port of the compressor 101. Simultaneously, the refrigerant discharged from the indoor heat exchanger 7 and / or accumulator 201, acting as evaporators, also returns to the gas-liquid separator 111 through the third pipeline 5 before entering the intake port of the compressor 101.

[0219] In this embodiment, the first control valve 102, the second control valve 104, and the third control valve 103 are all four-way valves. When the first control valve 102 is powered off, the working port of the first control valve 102, which is connected to the first outdoor heat exchanger 105, is open to its inlet. When the second control valve 104 is powered on, the working port of the second control valve 104, which is connected to the second pipeline 4, is open to its inlet. When the third control valve 103 is powered off, the working port of the third control valve 103, which is connected to the second outdoor heat exchanger 107, is open to its inlet.

[0220] The relationship between the above working modes of the outdoor unit 1 and the first control valve 102, the second control valve 104, the third control valve 103, the second throttling component 106 and the third throttling component 108 is as follows:

[0221]

[0222] In some embodiments, the accumulator 201 of the refrigerant circulation system operates in at least one of the following operating modes:

[0223] The accumulator 201 acts as an evaporator: Figure 11 As shown, the inlet and working port of the first control valve 102 are connected, the first refrigerant inlet and outlet 201a of the accumulator 201 is in the first state to be connected with the first throttling component 206, and the second refrigerant inlet and outlet 201b of the accumulator 201 is in the fourth state to be connected with the third pipeline 5. The refrigerant compressed by the compressor 101 is condensed by the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 and then throttled by the first throttling component 206. The throttled refrigerant enters the accumulator 201 and evaporates to absorb heat. The evaporated refrigerant discharged from the second refrigerant inlet and outlet 201b of the accumulator 201 is transported to the intake port of the compressor 101 through the third pipeline 5.

[0224] At this point, accumulator 201 functions as an evaporator. After being throttled by first throttling component 206, the refrigerant enters accumulator 201 for evaporation and flows out through fourth connecting pipe 203. In this state, two-phase refrigerant enters through the accumulator's first refrigerant inlet 201a and the liquid separator 214 located below the accumulator's first refrigerant inlet 201a, and flows out through the accumulator's second refrigerant inlet 201b.

[0225] The evaporation state can be further divided into evaporative cold storage and evaporative heat release. The difference between these two states lies in the different pre-conditions of the accumulator 201 and their different purposes. When the accumulator 201 has not yet stored cold or heat, it can enter the evaporative cold storage state. At this time, the condensed refrigerant enters the accumulator 201 and stores the cold in preparation for the next release of cold. Only when the accumulator 201 has stored heat can it enter the evaporative heat release state. The condensed refrigerant enters the accumulator 201, absorbs the stored heat in the accumulator 201, and evaporates, thereby absorbing part or all of the evaporation load of the refrigeration cycle.

[0226] The accumulator 201 acts as a subcooler: Figure 12 As shown, the inlet and working port of the first control valve 102 are connected, the second refrigerant inlet and outlet 201b of the accumulator 201 is in the fifth state to connect with the first pipeline 3, and the first refrigerant inlet and outlet 201a of the accumulator 201 is in the second state to connect with the third pipeline 5. The refrigerant compressed by the compressor 101 is condensed by the first outdoor heat exchanger 105 and then throttled by the second throttling component 106. The throttled refrigerant enters the accumulator 201 and evaporates to absorb heat. The first refrigerant inlet and outlet 201a of the accumulator 201 transports the discharged evaporated refrigerant to the indoor heat exchanger 7 through the first pipeline 3.

[0227] At this point, accumulator 201 functions as a subcooler. Refrigerant enters accumulator 201 through cold storage check valve 207 and fifth connecting line 205 for subcooling, increasing the degree of subcooling before exiting through second connecting line 213. In this state, liquid refrigerant enters the accumulator through second refrigerant inlet 201b and exits through first refrigerant inlet 201a and liquid separator 214.

[0228] The accumulator 201 acts as a condenser: Figure 13 As shown, the first refrigerant inlet and outlet 201a of the accumulator 201 is in the second state to be connected with the first pipeline 3; the second refrigerant inlet and outlet 201b is in the third state to circulate refrigerant with the second pipeline 4 or the exhaust port of the compressor 101. The refrigerant compressed by the compressor 101 is transported to the accumulator 201 for condensation. The condensed refrigerant is transported to the first pipeline 3 through the first refrigerant inlet and outlet 201a of the accumulator 201. The first pipeline 3 transports the condensed refrigerant to the indoor heat exchanger 7.

[0229] At this point, accumulator 201 functions as a condenser. Refrigerant enters accumulator 201 through third connecting line 202 and fifth connecting line 205, where it condenses and then exits through second connecting line 213. In this state, gaseous refrigerant enters through the accumulator's second refrigerant inlet 201b, and after condensation, liquid refrigerant exits through the accumulator's first refrigerant inlet 201a and liquid separator 214.

[0230] The condensation state can be further divided into condensation cold release and condensation heat storage. The difference between these two states lies in the different pre-conditions of the accumulator 201 and their different purposes. The condensation cold release state can only be entered after the accumulator 201 has stored cold. At this time, high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant enters the accumulator 201, absorbs the cold stored in the accumulator 201 and evaporates, with the purpose of taking on part or all of the condensation load of the refrigeration cycle. When the accumulator 201 has not yet stored cold or heat, it can enter the condensation heat storage state. At this time, high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant enters the accumulator 201 and stores heat in the accumulator 201 in preparation for the next heat release.

[0231] The relationship between the above working modes of the energy storage device 2 and the second switch valve 208, the third switch valve 210, the fourth switch valve 212 and the first throttling component 206 is as follows:

[0232]

[0233] like Figure 14 As shown, at this time, the indoor unit acts as an evaporator, and the refrigerant enters the indoor unit through the first indoor unit pipeline 604 to evaporate and flows out through the refrigeration control valve 602. Figure 15 As shown, at this time, the indoor unit 7 acts as a condenser, and the refrigerant enters the indoor unit through the heating control valve 603 for condensation and then flows out through the first indoor unit pipeline 604.
