<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To surely reduce consumption power of a compressor in a vapor compression type refrigerator. <P>SOLUTION: The expander 4 and the compressor 1 are connected through a one-way clutch 6.Thereby, the number of rotations of the expander 4 is less than that of the compressor 1, and transmission of the power is automatically blocked when the expander 4 applies braking force to the compressor. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the expander 4 from applying braking force to the compressor 1, and to prevent the power consumption of the compressor 1, i.e., the power consumption of a motor 2, from increasing. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
