<p>A leakage restriction device for a refrigeration cycle (10) of a vehicle air conditioner in which refrigerant flows has first and second rubber gaskets (4, 5). The first and second gaskets (4, 5) are disposed between a pipe (22, 23) and a pipe joint (20) of the refrigeration cycle (10) for restricting refrigerant from leaking into atmospheric air. The first gasket (4) is disposed on an atmospheric-air side and the second gasket (5) is disposed on a refrigerant side between the pipe (22, 23) and the pipe joint (20). The first gasket (4) has a gas permeability lower than that of the second gasket (5), and has a blistering-resistance which is inferior to that of the second gasket (5). As a result, refrigerant is restricted from leaking into atmospheric air, and a blister is restricted from being formed in the first and second gaskets (4, 5) even when a pressure of refrigerant is rapidly changed. <IMAGE></p> |
