A rotary compressor is disclosed. The rotary compressor includes a sidewall path formed in an inner wall of a cylinder facing a vane slot and configured to form a space facing a side surface of a vane, and the vane is provided with a communication part configured to selectively communicate between the outside of the vane slot and the sidewall path according to a position of the vane.

A compressor includes a casing that stores lubricant at a bottom, a compression mechanism disposed in the casing to suck and compress a refrigerant, and an oil return member forming an oil return flow path that extends in a top-to-bottom direction to guide the lubricant discharged from the compression mechanism downward. The oil return flow path includes a uniform-cross-section flow path, and a varying-cross-section flow path continuous with a lower end of the uniform-cross-section flow path. A lower end of the varying-cross-section flow path forms an outlet of the oil return flow path and lies along an inner surface of the casing. A the lower end of the varying-cross-section flow path has a greater width than an upper end of the varying-cross-section flow path, and the lower end of the varying-cross-section flow path has a smaller thickness than the upper end of the varying-cross-section flow path.

An air injection enthalpy-increasing scroll compressor is provided. The compressor has a main frame, a movable scroll plate and a stationary scroll plate. The movable scroll plate has a movable plate end plate and a movable scroll wrap arranged on a side end face of the movable plate end plate. A back pressure chamber is defined between the movable plate end plate and the main frame. The stationary scroll plate has a fixed scroll end plate and a stationary scroll wrap arranged on a side end face of the fixed scroll end plate. The stationary scroll wrap and the movable scroll wrap are engaged with each other to form a crescent-shaped compression cavity. The movable scroll plate and the stationary scroll plate are provided with medium pressure passages that, during the rotation of the movable scroll plate, communicate the compression cavity with the back pressure chamber.

A supercharger includes a rotor housing defining a pair of cylindrical chambers. A driving shaft bearing is to support a driving rotor shaft for rotation in the rotor housing. A driven shaft bearing is to support a driven rotor shaft for rotation in the rotor housing. An oil sump housing is to enclose a timing gear end of the rotor housing. A shaft seal is disposed between the rotor housing and each respective rotor shaft. The oil sump housing, the rotor housing and driving and driven shaft seals define a closed container for oil to lubricate the driving shaft bearing, the driven shaft bearing, a driving timing gear and a driven timing gear. The oil pools in the closed container and a top surface of the oil is spaced below the timing gears when the driving rotor shaft is in a vertical orientation.

Disclosed are an oil supplying mechanism, and a horizontal compressor having same. Disclosed is an oil supply mechanism for a horizontal compressor, the horizontal compressor including a housing, a motor, a rotating shaft driven by the motor, and a bearing pedestal supporting the rotating shaft. The oil supply mechanism includes a separating member, the separating member being in the form of a ring having a central hole for allowing the bearing pedestal to pass therethrough, and the separating member being configured to separate the housing into an oil storage chamber and a motor chamber with the motor provided therein. The separating member is constructed to have an annular groove opening into the oil storage chamber. The oil supply mechanism and the horizontal compressor having the oil supply mechanism can reduce or minimize free space in the motor chamber and/or facilitate a quality inspection on the structure of a pump.

A rotor assembly and a compressor are provided. The rotor assembly has a crankshaft, a rotor core, a balance weight and an oil baffle shield. The rotor core is provided with a vent hole. The vent hole extends through the rotor core along an axial direction of the rotor core. The balance weight is located at one end of the rotor core approximate to an oil sump of the compressor. The oil baffle shield is arranged to cover the balance weight and is provided with a central opening. The crankshaft extends through the central opening. An accommodating space is defined between the oil baffle shield and the rotor core. The accommodating space is communicated with the vent hole.

Provided is a scroll compressor which has a reduced noise vibration by minimizing an impact sound generated when the operation of the scroll compressor is stopped.

A scroll compressor is disclosed, which may provide an oil supply path opened only in case of driving of a low pressure ratio to improve a differential pressure oil supply structure which may have a defect in oil supply in case of driving of the low pressure ratio.

The disclosure provides an oil tubing installation assembly and a scroll compressor adopting the same. The oil tubing installation assembly is adapted to be installed into a shell in a vertical direction and includes: a housing on which a vertical oil tubing installation surface and an oil hole located in the oil tubing installation surface are provided; a clip adapted to be installed on the oil tubing installation surface and into the shell along with the housing; and an oil tubing assembly adapted to be installed into the clip in a vertical direction after the housing and the clip have been installed into the shell. The oil tubing assembly includes an oil tubing body and a cuboid-shaped installation block. A through hole is provided in the installation block and the through hole is configured to have a first orifice on the front surface of the installation block and a second orifice on the rear surface of the installation block. The upper end of the oil tubing body is connected to the first orifice. The second orifice is aligned with and fitted to the oil hole after the installation block is installed in place in the clip. In this way, the long oil tubing can be easily installed manually in place even after the housing has been pressed into the shell.

A rotary compressor includes a casing including an oil reservoir configured to store lubricating oil inside, and a compression mechanism including a reciprocator and a support. The reciprocator defines a compression chamber and reciprocating along a first direction. The support has a support surface configured to support the reciprocator. The support surface includes a first groove and a second groove formed therein. The first groove extends along a second direction intersecting with the first direction and is configured to transfer the lubricating oil to the second groove. The second groove extends from a center of the first groove toward the compression chamber along the first direction.
