A fluid pump includes a pump element where rotation of the pump element generates suction at the inlet and pressure at the outlet to move fluid through a fluid path. An inlet orifice directs a portion of the fluid through the accessory fluid path that includes a low-restriction return path providing a continuous flow of the fluid through the accessory fluid path and to an outlet orifice. A circuit board housing includes a contoured portion and a PCB with a thermistor in communication with contoured portion. The continuous flow is directed between the contoured portion and the outlet orifice between a rotor and the outer wall. The low-restriction return path maintains a temperature of the continuous flow of the fluid within the contoured portion of the accessory fluid path to be similar to a temperature of the fluid in the fluid path.

The compressor includes a rotor that applies rotational power to a compressor unit, wherein the rotor includes a rotor core and an upper rotor-end plate, the rotor core has a plurality of through-holes through which a refrigerant passes, the upper rotor-end plate covers the upper rotor-end face of the rotor core, where one end of each of the plurality of through-holes is formed, the upper rotor-end plate has a plurality of upper openings that allow communication of the plurality of through-holes with an internal space in a compressor container, the plurality of upper openings are adjacent to the plurality of through-holes in the upper rotor-end face, and a plurality of upper inner peripheral-side adjacent areas, which are on the inner peripheral-side closer to a rotation axis than the plurality of through-holes, are exposed to the internal space.

A scroll compressor includes a refrigerant discharge flow passage and an oil recovery flow passage that are separated from each other. The scroll compressor further includes a flow passage separation unit configured to separate an intermediate space between a drive portion and a compression portion into an inner space communicating with the refrigerant flow passage and an outer space communicating with the oil flow passage to separate the refrigerant discharge path from the oil recovery path.

The scroll compressor (2) comprises a hermetic enclosure (3) comprising an outer shell (4); a compression unit (11) arranged within the hermetic enclosure (3); an electric motor (21) configured to drive the compression unit (11), the electric motor (21) including a rotor (22) and a stator (23); and an inner shell (26) in which the electric motor (21) is arranged. A baffle (34) is arranged inside the inner shell (26) at a stator end winding (25) of the electric motor (21), the baffle (34) comprising deflecting means configured to deflect at least a part of a main refrigerant flow, flowing inside the inner shell (26), towards said stator end winding (25).

An oil-free water-injected screw air compressor comprises a housing that encloses two rotors for generating compressed air, an air water separator for separating the water from the compressed air. Injecting water during compression can remove the heat of compression and thus enhance efficiency of compression. However, injecting water may complicate bearing lubrication. According to the present subject matter, these challenges are tackled using a sealing system for isolation of bearing lubricant from water used for cooling.

A fluid pump includes a pump element in communication with an inlet and an outlet. Rotation of the pump element generates a suction at the inlet and pressure at the outlet. The suction and pressure cooperate to move a fluid through a fluid path. An accessory fluid path is in communication with the inlet and outlet. The accessory fluid path includes a thermistor in communication with the accessory fluid path. The thermistor monitors a temperature of the fluid within the accessory fluid path.

A scroll compressor is disclosed. The scroll compressor may include a suction guide between a refrigerant suction pipe and a high/low pressure separation plate, and the suction guide may be fastened to a non-orbiting scroll or inserted into a suction guide protrusion that extends from the non-orbiting scroll. Accordingly, suction refrigerant may be partially suctioned into a compression chamber by the suction guide in advance before moving to the high/low pressure separation plate, so as to be prevented from coming into contact with the high/low pressure separation plate, while the suction refrigerant may also partially flow toward a drive motor without being suctioned directly into the compression chamber, so as to cool the drive motor, whereby efficiency of the compressor may be improved and an operation range of the compressor may be expanded.

A rotary compressor is provided that may include a casing, a cylinder having an inner circumferential surface in an annular shape, a roller rotatably disposed in a compression space of the cylinder, a rotational shaft coupled to an inner circumference of the roller, main and sub bearings defining surfaces of the compression space, and a sub bearing cover coupled to the sub bearing to cover one end of the sub bearing and defining a discharge chamber with the sub bearing to communicate with the compression space so as to accommodate compressed refrigerant to be discharged. The sub bearing or the sub bearing cover may include a first barrier rib that protrudes from a surface thereof located inside of the discharge chamber. The first barrier rib may be spaced apart from a surface opposite to the surface within the discharge chamber by a predetermined distance.
