Zusammenfassung:An expansion-distribution assembly for the heat-absorbing component in a heatpump system. The assembly comprises an envelope forming an expansion chamber and a distribution chamber. A shuttle within the distribution chamber is movable between a first position in response to fluid flowing in the forward direction and a second position in response to fluid flowing in the reverse direction. The shuttle restricts flow when fluid is flowing in the first direction but is less restrictive when fluid is flowing in the second direction.
