Patent ID: 10562376

Abstract:
A refrigeration cycle device includes: a high-pressure side heat exchanger; a low-pressure side heat exchanger; a vehicle-mounted device that supplies heat to the heat medium; a heat-medium air heat exchanger that exchanges heat between the heat medium and air; a switching portion that switches between a state in which the heat medium circulates through the high-pressure side heat exchanger and a state in which the heat medium circulates through the low-pressure side heat exchanger with respect to each of the vehicle-mounted device and the heat-medium air heat exchanger; and a controller that drives the compressor, while controlling an operation of the switching portion to switch to a defrosting mode in which the heat medium circulates between the low-pressure side heat exchanger and the vehicle-mounted device, and the heat medium circulates between the high-pressure side heat exchanger and the heat-medium air heat exchanger, when defrosting of the heat-medium air heat exchanger is necessary.
