A refrigeration circuit ( 1 ) sequentially connected to a compressor ( 10 ), a condenser ( 11 ), an electric expansion valve ( 13 ), an evaporator ( 17 ), and an intake proportional valve ( 21 ). When the freezing capability of the refrigeration device is to be suppressed, a control means ( 30 ) will restrict the intake proportional valve ( 21 ) in order to place refrigerant in a discharge side of the evaporator ( 17 ) in a wet saturated steam state, and the electric expansion valve ( 13 ) will be set to an aperture such that the refrigerant in the interior of the evaporator ( 17 ) will be placed in the wet saturated steam state.

1. A refrigeration device, comprising:a refrigeration circuit being sequentially connected to a compressor, a condenser, an electric expansion valve, an evaporator, and an intake proportional valve;a control means for controlling the capacity of said refrigerant circuit; anda command means for providing indicators to said control means;said control means being configured to receive a request to control said capacity of said refrigerant circuit from said command means, said intake proportional valve being configured to be restricted to place refrigerant in a discharge side of said evaporator in a wet saturated steam state, and said electric expansion valve being configured to be set to an aperture to place refrigerant in an interior of said evaporator in said wet saturated steam state. 2. The refrigeration device set forth in claim 1, further comprising a protection means for preventing damage to the compressor. 3. The refrigeration device set forth in claim 2, wherein said protection means includes a sensor that detects a pressure and temperature of refrigerant in a discharge side of said compressor, and to deduce a pressure and temperature of refrigerant in an intake of compressor based upon the detection results from said sensor. 4. The refrigeration device set forth in claim 2, wherein said protection means includes an oil temperature sensor that detects a temperature of oil in said compressor, and to deduce a degree of wetness of refrigerant in an intake of said compressor based upon detection results from said oil temperature sensor. 5. The refrigeration device set forth in claim 1, wherein said interior of said evaporator is configured to be filled with said refrigerant in said wet saturated state by setting said aperture of said electric expansion valve such that said refrigerant is in said wet saturated steam state.
