Disclosed herein is a rotary compressor capable of maintaining the overall dynamic balance and providing low vibration and low noise even at high speed operation and capable of improving efficiency by providing a communication passage to communicate operation chambers, which are provided inside each of the plurality of cylinders for compressing a refrigerant, to each other. The rotary-type compressor includes a housing, a drive motor provided inside the housing to generate power and having a stator and a rotor, and a compression unit that receives power from the drive motor and compresses the refrigerant. The compression unit includes a plurality of cylinders in which an operation chamber to compress the refrigerant is provided. The operation chambers provided in each of the plurality of cylinders are provided to have different volumes, and a balancer provided to maintain dynamic balance is provided only in the lower side of the rotor.

A refrigeration cycle device according to the present invention includes a compressor having a first compression chamber and a second compression chamber, a condenser, a decompressor, an evaporator, an injection path configured to introduce intermediate pressure refrigerant, a communication passage configured to introduce intermediate pressure refrigerant compressed in the first compression chamber to the second compression chamber, and a switch element configured to selectively make the second compression chamber communicate with the evaporator or make the second compression chamber communicate with the communication passage. The injection path introduces the intermediate pressure refrigerant to the second compression chamber. Single-stage compressing operation is performed when the second compression chamber is communicated with the evaporator, and two-stage compressing operation is performed when the second compression chamber is communicated with the communication passage.

Disclosed are a movable scroll device for a scroll compressor and a method for manufacturing same. The method includes: manufacturing the movable scroll device by means of casting steps, so that the movable scroll device includes a movable scroll end plate, with a movable scroll blade provided on a first side face of the movable scroll end plate; and a hub vertically extending outwards from the middle of a second side face of the movable scroll end plate; and fabricating at least one centroid adjustment recess on the hub. By the method, the centroid of the movable scroll device can be adjusted in a more flexible, precise, active and targeted manner.

A scroll compressor includes a casing, a scroll compression mechanism, a motor, a crankshaft, a bearing, a frame fixed to the casing; and an oil separation member fixed to the frame. The motor includes a stator and a rotor rotatable in a rotational direction. The bearing rotatably supports the crankshaft. The oil separation member suppresses mixing of a refrigerant and a lubricating oil. The frame supports the bearing and has first and second fixed legs fixed to the casing. The oil separation member has a first horizontal and inclined surfaces. The first inclined surface has a first inclined surface upstream portion and a first inclined surface downstream portion. The first inclined surface downstream portion is disposed higher than the first inclined surface upstream portion. The first horizontal surface, the first inclined surface, and the first fixed leg are disposed in order from upstream to downstream in the rotational direction.

A scroll compressor includes a refrigerant suction pipe coupled to a discharge cover or a fixed scroll through a casing in a radial direction, a suction passage communicating the refrigerant suction pipe with a compression chamber, and a suction passage opening and closing valve disposed inside the suction passage to be slidable in an axial direction so as to selectively open or close the suction passage. Accordingly, when the compressor is stopped, oil or refrigerant in the casing can be restricted quickly so as not to flow back to the refrigerant suction pipe through a compression unit.

Method for controlling a compressed air unit which consists of several compressed air networks (2 and 3) having at least one commonly controllable component, characterized in that, on the basis of measurement data of at least one of the above-mentioned compressed air networks (2 and 3), at least the above-mentioned common component (11) is controlled by at least one controller (20).

An electric priming pump device detachably couples to a centrifugal water pump on the suction side of the water pump, for priming thereof. The device comprises an enclosure and a base, wherein the enclosure contains a rotary vane peripheral bypass vacuum motor which is pressed against the base to form an air-tight seal. The device generates a vacuum for priming through use of a rotary vane peripheral bypass vacuum motor, which can remove large volumes of air quickly. An opening in the base receives a check valve fitting to protect the motor from water and slows loss of vacuum pressure after use. Additionally, a cone shaped protective cover protects components in the device and provides space for branding or advertisement.

A method including: determining a cooling value; and comparing the cooling value to an activation point of a lead compressor. The lead compressor is in a tandem set of scroll compressors of a cooling system. The tandem set of compressors comprises a lag compressor. The method further includes: activating the lead compressor when the cooling value is greater than the activation point; activating the lag compressor subsequent to activating the lead compressor; and determining whether conditions exist including: an alarm associated with the lag compressor being generated, and the lead compressor being deactivated. The method further includes deactivating the lag compressor when at least one of the conditions exists in the cooling system.

A rotor has at its two axis end portions an upper large-diameter inner circumferential portion and a lower large-diameter inner circumferential portion that have inner diameters larger than the inner diameter of the axially middle portion of the rotor and are offset in the radial direction. A crankshaft has a passageway, which is formed in the crankshaft and allows refrigerant to flow therethrough, and a gas venting hole, which provides communication between the passageway and at least one discharge opening formed in the outer circumferential surface of the crankshaft. The at least one discharge opening is formed at a position facing the inner circumferential surface of the lower large-diameter inner circumferential portion 5b on the compression unit side.
