Compressor Having Sound Isolation Feature
Scroll compressor designs are provided to minimize vibration, sound, and noise transmission. The scroll compressor has a bearing housing, and orbiting and non-orbiting scroll members. The non-orbiting scroll member has a radially extending flanged portion with at least one aperture substantially aligned with the axially extending bore. At least one fastener is disposed within the aperture and the bore. A sound isolation member contacts at least one of the non-orbiting scroll member, the fastener, or the bearing housing, to reduce or eliminate noise transmission. The sound isolation member may be formed of a polymeric composite having an acoustic impedance value greater than the surrounding materials. The sound isolation member may be an annular washer, an O-ring, or a biasing member, by way of non-limiting example. In other variations, fluid passages are provided within the fastener and/or bearing housing to facilitate entry of lubricant oil to further dampen sound and noise.

Axially flexible compressor
An axially flexible compressor includes a stationary scroll, a movable scroll and a gas-discharge cover. The stationary scroll mates with the movable scroll. The stationary scroll includes a first spiral wall. The stationary scroll mates with the gas-discharge cover. The stationary scroll is located at least partially in the gas-discharge cover. The compressor includes a sealing member and an elastic member. The sealing member is located between a circumferential side wall of the stationary scroll and an inner wall of the gas-discharge cover. The stationary scroll defines a gas-discharge hole. An outer wall is located at a position away from the first spiral wall and away from the gas-discharge hole. The elastic member is located between the gas-discharge cover and a side of the stationary scroll away from the movable scroll. The elastic member is in contact with the stationary scroll and the gas-discharge cover.
Rotor pump and rotary machinery comprising the same, the rotor pump including a pump body forming an accommodation cavity, a pump wheel rotating in the accommodation cavity and a sealing plate having an eccentric hole that is eccentric relative to a rotation axis of the pump wheel, where a shaft portion of the pump wheel is rotatably fitted in the eccentric hole
The present invention relates to a rotor pump (10), comprising: a pump body (50A) capable of being rotatably driven and forming an accommodation cavity (52) therein; a pump wheel (20, 20A) having a main body part (22) capable of rotating in the accommodation cavity and a first shaft part (24) axially extending from the main body part; and a sealing plate (30) comprising an eccentric hole (32) being eccentric relative to the rotation axis of the pump body; the first shaft part is rotatably fitted in the eccentric hole; a suction channel (25) is formed on one side of the pump wheel, and a discharge channel is formed on the other side of the pump wheel; the suction channel and the discharge channel are respectively in fluid communication with a compression cavity formed between the outer circumference of the pump wheel and the inner circumference of the accommodation cavity. The present invention also relates to a rotary machinery comprising the rotor pump. The rotor pump of the present invention has a simple structure, fewer components and low cost.
Gear pump with suction housing element providing a tight seal between suction and high-pressure chamber to increase pump efficiency and method of providing tight seal
A gear pump includes a pump housing, a two meshed with a driven gear, a suction housing, and a suction cavity. The suction housing includes a body portion having first and second sealing disposed adjacent to outer diameters of the gears. A suction chamber wall is disposed between the first and second sealing surfaces and a sealing land is adjacent to a planar running surface of the pump housing. A flange of the suction housing has a third sealing surface disposed in contact with gear faces of the gears. The suction cavity is open to the inlet and defined in part by the suction chamber wall.
