The valve is operable to selectively supply the fluid to the first compressor, the second compressor, or both the first compressor and the second compressor.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR THE HEAT-PUMP CONTROL TO REDUCE LIQUID REFRIGERANT MIGRATION

A method of mitigating liquid-refrigerant migration includes comparing a requested compressor speed of a variable-speed compressor to a pre-defined threshold and, responsive to a determination that the requested compressor speed is greater than the pre-defined threshold, operating the variable-speed compressor at a first compressor speed that is less than the requested compressor speed.

CRANKSHAFT FOR ROTATORY COMPRESSOR, ROTATORY COMPRESSOR AND REFRIGERATING CYCLE DEVICE
20170335849 · 2017-11-23 ·

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.
