The present disclosure is directed to a screw compressor system having a compressor housing with a pair of screw rotors rotatably supported within a compression chamber. Lubricant is injected into a compression chamber at a first volume ratio and at a second volume ratio greater than the first volume ratio to increase the sealing and lubrication between the screw rotors and rotor bores in the compressor housing as well as to increase heat transfer from a compressed working fluid in the compression chamber.

A rotary screw compressor includes a compressor assembly and a drive motor assembly. The compressor assembly includes a compressor housing, a first screw rotor and a second screw rotor installed in the compressor housing and engaged with each other. An end of the first screw rotor is an engaging end. The drive motor assembly includes a motor housing, a motor rotor, a motor stator and a centering bushing installed in the motor housing, and the motor stator installed on an outer side of the motor rotor and capable of driving the motor rotor to rotate, and the centering bushing is passed and connected to the inner circumference of the motor rotor and has an end sheathed on the engaging end, so that the motor rotor can drive the first screw rotor to rotate through the centering bushing and the engaging end.

A screw compressor includes plural screw rotors, plural suction-side bearings that each rotatably support the suction side of the plural screw rotors and plural discharge-side bearings that each rotatably support the discharge side of the plural screw rotors, and a casing that houses the plural screw rotors, the plural suction-side bearings, and the plural discharge-side bearings. Each screw rotor includes a lobe section with plural lobes and a suction-side shaft section and a discharge-side shaft section each disposed at both ends of the lobe section. The casing has a housing chamber that houses the lobe sections of the plural screw rotors and a lubrication path in which liquid that lubricates the plural suction-side bearings circulates. In the lubrication path, respective passages to lubricate each of the plural suction-side bearings are connected in series and a most downstream part is connected to the housing chamber.

A compressor is disclosed which can include a first stage and a second stage. In one form the compressor includes contact cooled compressor stages. The compressor can include a rod useful to inject a lubricant for purposes of cooling/lubricating/sealing the rotating components of the compressor. In one form the rod is an elongate rod with openings which permit a lubricant such as oil to be injected. The injected oil can be atomized via the openings. The rod can be positioned in the interstage space between the first and second stages, and can include a variety of openings.

A compressor includes: a casing with an inner wall defining a compression chamber, an inlet leading into the compression chamber, and an outlet leading out of the compression chamber; a rotor rotatably coupled to the casing for rotation relative to the casing; and a gate coupled to the casing for movement relative to the casing. The gate may be pivotally, or translationally coupled to the casing. A hydrostatic bearing may be disposed between the gate and casing. A plurality of compressors may be mechanically linked together such that their compression cycles are out of phase.

A co-rotating scroll machine operable as compressor or expander, comprises a transmission and guidance mechanism for first and second scroll plates, having three transmission and guidance units uniformly distributed around the scroll plates towards the periphery thereof. Each transmission and guidance unit comprises a male element mounted on one of the scroll plates and a facing female element mounted on the facing scroll plate. Each transmission and guidance unit comprises an internal ring mounted for angular displacement in the opening of the female element, the internal ring having therein a slot wherein the male element of the transmission and guidance unit slides.
