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.

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 crankshaft for a rotary compressor includes: a body (1) and an eccentric portion (2), the eccentric portion (2) being fitted over the body (1), wherein at least one of a flexible structure (21) and an oil pressure surface (22) is arranged on the eccentric portion (2). The flexible structure (21) is configured to deform inwards when subject to an external force in an inward direction. The oil pressure surface (22) is configured in such a way that in a direction opposite to a rotating direction of a rotating central axis of a crankshaft (300), a distance between a front end (221) of the oil pressure surface (22) and the central axis of the eccentric portion (2) is smaller than a distance between a tail end (222) of the oil pressure surface (22) and the central axis of the eccentric portion (2). Also disclosed are a rotary compressor and a refrigerating cycle device. The crankshaft can effectively solve the problem that a rotary compressor gets stuck due to abnormal contact between a piston and an air cylinder, and a high-pressure oil wedge can be formed at a tail portion of an oil cavity, thereby increasing an inlet oil pressure, and improving the environment of lubrication between an eccentric portion and a piston.
