Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A deflector for a condenser. The condenser has an inlet in communication with a compressor, and a deflector for guiding a refrigerant gas flow from the compressor is arranged in the condenser and at a position close to the inlet. The deflector is provided with a deflecting structure projecting toward the inlet, and the deflecting structure is configured as impermeable to the refrigerant gas flow.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A deflector for a condenser, wherein the condenser has an inlet in communication with a compressor, and the deflector for guiding a refrigerant gas flow from the compressor is arranged in the condenser and at a position close to the inlet, wherein the deflector is provided with a deflecting structure projecting toward the inlet, and the deflecting structure is configured as impermeable to the refrigerant gas flow; wherein the deflecting structure includes a truncated spherical cross section. 2. The deflector according to claim 1 , wherein the deflecting structure is arranged on the entire surface of the deflector. 3. The deflector according to claim 1 , wherein the deflecting structure is made of steel. 4. The deflector according to claim 1 , wherein the deflecting structure is fixed to a housing of the condenser by welding. 5. The deflector according to claim 1 , wherein a highest point of the deflector faces the inlet. 6. A condenser, comprising: an inlet in communication with a compressor, and a deflector for guiding a refrigerant gas flow from the compressor arranged in the condenser and at a position close to the inlet, wherein the deflector is provided with a deflecting structure projecting toward the inlet, and the deflecting structure is configured as impermeable to the refrigerant gas flow; wherein the deflecting structure includes a truncated spherical cross section. 7. A refrigeration system, comprising: a condenser including: an inlet in communication with a compressor, and a deflector for guiding a refrigerant gas flow from the compressor arranged in the condenser and at a position close to the inlet, wherein the deflector is provided with a deflecting structure projecting toward the inlet, and the deflecting structure is configured as impermeable to the refrigerant gas flow; wherein the deflecting structure includes a truncated spherical cross section.
