Compressor having external temperature sensor and method of manufacturing compressor
A compressor includes a casing having a cylindrical portion, a compression mechanism fixed to an inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion, an external portion, a weld nut, and a bolt. The external portion includes a temperature reaction portion that reacts to a temperature change of the cylindrical portion. The external portion is mounted on an outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion. The weld nut is welded to the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion to mount the external portion on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion. The bolt fixes the external portion to the weld nut.
Variable lubricant vane pump
A vane pump for providing a pressurized lubricant includes a static pump housing defining an inlet and an outlet, a shiftable control ring with at least one slide support surface, a pump rotor with rotor vanes which rotate within the control ring, and metal slide support pad(s). The control ring shifts with respect to the pump rotor to vary an eccentricity and to thereby control a volumetric pump performance. The pump housing comprises a static control ring housing body which radially surrounds and supports the control ring, and two static pump housing lids which axially support the control ring housing body and the control ring. The control ring housing body is made of plastic. The metal slide support pad(s) is fixed to the static control ring housing body and, together with the at least one slide support surface, provides a friction bearing for the control ring.
Scroll compressor with circular surface terminations
A scroll type positive displacement assembly includes a first scroll and a second scroll, where the second scroll is configured to orbit with respect to a center of the first scroll without rotating with respect to the first scroll. Together, the first scroll and the second scroll define a compression chamber between two seal points where the first scroll and the second scroll contact one another as the second scroll orbits with respect to the first scroll during a compression cycle, and the two seal points come together proximate to a discharge port between the first scroll and the second scroll such that there is at least substantially no dead space between the first scroll and the second scroll at an end of the compression cycle. For example, the two seal points remain in sealing contact during at least one hundred and eighty (180) degrees of the compression cycle.

ROTARY DEVICE AND POWER TRANSMISSION DEVICE
A rotary device includes a first rotor, a second rotor, a centrifugal element, and a first rolling member. The first rotor includes an accommodation portion having first and second guide surfaces. The first and second guide surfaces face both sides in a circumferential direction. The first rotor is disposed to be rotatable. The second rotor is disposed to be rotatable with and relative to the first rotor. The centrifugal element is disposed within the accommodation portion. The centrifugal element is disposed to be radially movable by a centrifugal force acting thereon in rotation of the first or second rotor. The centrifugal element rotates about a rotational axis thereof in radial movement thereof. The first rolling member is disposed between the first guide surface and the centrifugal element. The first rolling member rolls on the first guide surface in accordance with rotation of the centrifugal element about the rotational axis thereof.
Scroll assembly and scroll compressor
A scroll assembly includes an orbiting scroll and a cross ring. The orbiting scroll is configured to have a bottom plate. A plurality of bayonets and two positioning slots are provided on the outer peripheral surface of the bottom plate. The bayonets are adapted to be clamped by a chuck of a turning tool. The cross ring is configured to have an annular body and two positioning pins. An annular groove adapted for being formed by turning is provided on the lower surface of the bottom plate of the orbiting scroll, and a chamfer is formed on the edge of the annular groove formed by the intersection of the circumferential vertical surface of the positioning groove and the lower surface of the bottom plate.

Compressor Modulation System With Multi-Way Valve
A compressor may include first and second scrolls, an axial biasing chamber, and a control valve. The second scroll includes an outer port and an inner port. The outer and inner ports may be open to respective intermediate-pressure compression pockets. The control valve may be in fluid communication with the inner port, the outer port, and the axial biasing chamber. Movement of the control valve into the first position allows fluid communication between the inner port and the axial biasing chamber. Movement of the control valve into the second position allows fluid communication between the outer port and the axial biasing chamber.

Motor-integrated fluid machine
Provided is a motor-integrated fluid machine that has improved performance and reliability by efficiently cooling a fluid machine body and a motor without increasing an installation space. The present invention is characterized by being provided with: a fluid machine unit that compresses or expands a fluid; a motor unit that has a drive shaft connected to the fluid machine unit; and a cooling fan that cools the motor unit and the fluid machine unit by sucking cooling air from the motor unit side and that is connected to the drive shaft at the side opposed to that connected to the fluid machine unit, wherein between the motor unit and the cooling fan, the minimum sectional area of a cooling air passage from the outside in the radial direction toward the drive shaft is larger than that of a cooling air passage from the motor unit side toward the cooling fan.
