PURPOSE:To prevent a refrigerant from becoming gas-liquid two phase state by a method wherein an upper end of an inner cylinder formed with an opening at an upper side surface is provided with a mesh-like member and a gas recoverying member. CONSTITUTION:An upper end of an inner cylinder 1 is provided with a liquid dropper 2 formed by a mesh-like member, i.e., a punched metal and a conical gas recoverying member 3. An upper side surface of the inner cylinder 1 is provided with a plurality of liquid outlet ports 4. An outer cylinder 6 having a bottom plate 5 of the inner cylinder 1 together in a state that it encloses an outer circumferential side surface of the inner cylinder 1 and it is arranged in coaxial with the inner cylinder 1. A feeding pipe 7 sealingly passing through the outer cylinder 6 and the inner cylinder 1 is fixed to a bottom side surface of the inner cylinder 1 while being offset. A feeding-out pipe 8 is fixed to the outer cylinder 6. With such an arrangement as mentioned above, it becomes possible to perform a gas-liquid separation of refrigerant and so there is no possibility that a performance of the air-conditioner such as a heat pump and the like is lowered. |
