Patent ID: 10935051

Abstract:
An ejector includes a nozzle, a body including a refrigerant suction port and a pressure increasing portion, a passage forming member inserted into the nozzle, and an actuation device moving the passage forming member. A nozzle passage includes a smallest passage cross-sectional area portion, a convergent portion, and a divergent portion. The passage forming member includes a tip portion which changes the passage cross-sectional area at the smallest passage cross-sectional area portion when the actuation device moves the passage forming member. A positive displacement amount is defined as an amount of a displacement of the passage forming member when the passage forming member is moved so as to increase the passage cross-sectional area at the smallest passage cross-sectional area portion. The tip portion has a shape in which an increase rate of the smallest passage cross-sectional area portion is increased according to an increase of the positive displacement amount.
