A dual heat source high-temperature regenerator to solve problems involved in two types of conventional high-temperature regenerators for carrying out heating by using a dedicated burner as the heat source and by using exhaust gas supplied from outside systems as the heat source; namely, the former type has a problem of higher running costs, and the latter a problem of narrower ranges for capacity control. The dual heat source high-temperature regenerator arranges two inner shells and inside an outer shell to form combustion and exhaust gas flues, respectively. The combustion gas flue has a sideways U shape as a whole. The lower end is equipped with a burner, and the upper end connected to an exhaust duct. The exhaust gas flue,has a horizontal, straight shape as a whole. One end is provided with an exhaust gas inlet, and the other end connected to an exhaust duct. The portions where a dilute absorbent liquor collects heat easily are the vertical-stroke portion on the sideways U of the combustion gas flue and the vicinity of the end of the exhaust gas flue making the exhaust gas inlet. The vertical-stroke portion and the exhaust gas inlet are collected to the same side so that the convection current of the dilute absorbent liquor produces a smooth circulation of the liquor as shown by broken lines in the drawings.

A mount base for use with an absorption refrigerator according to the present invention comprises a plurality of pairs of legs spaced by a distance from each other and mounted to a lower side of the cabinet such as the low-temperature and/or high-temperature cabinet, and a plurality of link plates securely joined to the legs thus forming an inner space defined by four sides beneath the cabinet, and will thus be increased in the physical strength for supporting the low-temperature and/or high-temperature cabinet. When the low-temperature and/or high-temperature cabinet is shaken by e.g. earthquake, it remains supported securely by the combination of the legs and the link plates, more specifically, the legs reinforced with the link plates and thus is prevented from fracture or injury. As the low-temperature and/or high-temperature cabinet is securely supported by the legs and the link plates, its absorber, evaporator, and regenerator are protected from tilting and will hence allow the absorption refrigerator to run without interruption.
