A refrigerating apparatus (10) includes a refrigerant circuit (11) in which a compressor (20), a radiator (14), an expander (30), and a cooler (15) are connected to each other in order through refrigerant pipes, in which a rotating shaft (22) of a motor is connected to a compression mechanism (21) included in the compressor (20) while a rotating shaft (32) of a generator (33) is connected to an expansion mechanism (31) included in the expander (30). The refrigerating apparatus (10) further includes an electric power input mechanism (41, 43) for allowing the generator (33) to function as a motor. This secures the operation of the expander (30) at a start of the apparatus to secure the start of a system, thereby attaining reliable control of the start-up performance at the start.
