Title:

HEAT STORAGE DEVICE AND AIR CONDITIONER PROVIDED WITH SAID HEAT STORAGE DEVICE

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/035676

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

Disclosed is a heat storage device configured from a heat storage tank (32) which accommodates a heat storage material that stores the heat generated in a compressor, and a heat transfer sheet disposed between the compressor and the heat storage tank (32) for transmitting waste heat of the compressor efficiently to the heat storage tank (32). The heat storage tank (32) is provided with a heat transfer unit (45) in an area in contact with the heat transfer sheet. By providing grooves (46) on the surface in contact with the heat transfer sheet of the heat transfer unit (45) in order to discharge the air that builds up between the heat transfer sheet and the heat transfer unit (45), the air collected therebetween is discharged along the grooves (46) when the heat transfer sheet and the heat transfer unit (45) are in close contact, making it possible to improve heat transfer efficiency without insulating air hindering heat transfer.
