A solenoid valve drive control device includes a switching device that provides and interrupts the application of the electric current to the solenoid, a first device that controls the application of the electric current to the solenoid by the switching device to start the application of the electric current to the solenoid at zero cross timing in a power supply period, and a second device that detects a value of an electric current that flows to the solenoid. The application of the electric current to the solenoid is interrupted when the detected value of the electric current reaches a predetermined value, after the zero cross timing. A holding power is generated by discharging energy accumulated in the solenoid through a snubber circuit until another zero cross timing subsequent to the zero cross timing after the application of the electric current to the solenoid is interrupted.

[Problem] To operate the compressor reliably in the unloaded mode at the minimum capacity without using a magnetic clutch, etc. and to configure the variable capacity compressor to be small. [Solution] A pressure-sensing bellows (16) is disposed inside a bellows-housing chamber (13). A valve body (9) is opened and closed by abutting the valve body (9) against the pressure-sensing bellows (16). The impelling force of a plunger spring (36) is set to be stronger than the impelling force of a valve-opening spring (15). When the electromagnetic coil device (30) is de-energized, the impelling force of the plunger spring (36) causes the pressure-sensing bellows (16) to contact the valve body (9) via the plunger (35). If the suction pressure (Ps) inside the bellows-housing chamber (13) changes, the pressure-sensing bellows (16) is expanded or contracted while the valve body (9) side is kept stationary, allowing the plunger (35) to move freely and keeping the valve body (9) from moving, and unloaded operation is maintained. When the electromagnetic coil device is energized, the valve body side of the pressure-sensing bellows is kept stationary and unloaded operation is maintained.

Disclosed is a pressure-sensitive control valve which reliably minimizes the capacity of a variable capacity compressor in an unload operation without using a magnet clutch, etc., and reduces the size of the variable capacity compressor. A pressure-sensitive bellows (16) is disposed within a bellows storage chamber (13). A ball (11a) is abutted against the pressure-sensitive bellows (16), to open or close a valve body (9) via a stem portion (11). The biasing force of a plunger spring (36) is set to be larger than the biasing force of a valve closing spring (15). When an electromagnetic coil device (30) is not energized, the pressure-sensitive bellows (16) is abutted against a valve main body via a plunger (35) by the biasing force of the plunger spring (36). Depending on the variation of a suction pressure (Ps) within the bellows storage chamber (13), the pressure-sensitive bellows (16) is expanded or contracted with respect to the abutment portion with the valve main body, functioning as a fixed point, so that the plunger (35) is freely moved, but the valve body (9) is not moved, and thus, the unload operation is maintained. Alternatively, when the electromagnetic coil device is energized, the pressure-sensitive bellows (16) is expanded or contracted with respect to the abutment portion with the valve main body, functioning as a fixed point, to maintain the unload operation.

A first expansion valve may be provided in an outdoor unit, and a second expansion valve may be provided in an indoor unit. A pipe line connects a first joint pipe of the first expansion valve and a second joint pipe of the second expansion valve. When a refrigerant flows in from the second joint pipe and flows out from the first joint pipe, the first and second expansion valves are in a full open state due to pressure of the refrigerant. When the refrigerant flows in from the first joint pipe and flows out from the second joint pipe, the first and second expansion valves are in semi-closed state (flow rate controlling state). In a cooling mode, the second expansion valve expands the refrigerant just before an indoor heat exchanger, and in a heating mode, the first expansion valve expands the refrigerant just before an outdoor heat exchanger. In both heating and cooling modes, a large amount of refrigerant may flow through the pipe line to reduce pressure loss.

[PROBLEMS] To provide a quiet and durable pressure type expansion valve for an air conditioner by reducing vibration of a valve body (2) caused by the flow of a refrigerant. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] In a valve housing (1), an inlet port (11), a valve chamber (1A), and an outlet port (12) are generated. Between the valve chamber (1A) and the outlet port (12), a valve seat part (3) is disposed. On the valve seat part (3), a valve port (31) and an orifice (32) are formed. Surrounding the valve body (2), a coil spring (4) is disposed to hold the valve body (2). A valve opening area of the valve body (2) and the valve port (31) is controlled depending on the differential pressure between a refrigerant pressure in a pressure control chamber (1B) communicated with the valve chamber (1A) and the atmospheric pressure in the inner space (51A) of bellows (51). The orifice (32) is formed inside the outer diameter of the valve body (2), on the opposite side of the inlet port (11). The suction force of the refrigerant flowing through the orifice (32) is made to act on the valve body (2) in one direction. The orifice (32) is positioned inside the coil spring (4). Cutting off the refrigerant by the coil spring (4) equalizes force acting on the valve body (2).

An electrically operated control valve, in which a valve body side spring retainer member is in contact with a stopper surface section, provided on a valve holder, to limit the movement of the valve body side spring retainer member to the lower lip section side; the valve body side spring retainer member is in contact with the stopper surface section to be separated from a valve body until a male screw shaft moves, by a distance equal to or more than a predetermined value, from a position where the valve body is seated on a valve seat section further to the valve seat section side; and, as a result, the valve body side spring retainer member and the valve body are separated, causing spring force of a compression coil not to act on the valve body. By this, wear at the surface where the valve body and the valve seat section are in contact is reduced, and leakage in a totally closed state is less likely to occur for a long period.
