Abstract
An ejector cycle device includes an ejector having a nozzle portion which decompresses refrigerant flowing out of a radiator, a first evaporator for evaporating refrigerant from the ejector, and a second evaporator provided in a branch passage that is branched from a position between the refrigerant radiator and the ejector and is connected to a refrigerant suction port of the ejector. Furthermore, a throttle member is disposed in the branch passage to decompress refrigerant and adjust a flow amount of refrigerant, and the second evaporator is disposed in the branch passage between the throttle member and the refrigerant suction port. In the ejector cycle device having both the first and second evaporators, a defrosting operation of one the first and second evaporators can be performed while the other one of the first and second evaporators is operated to have a cooling function.
