A scroll compressor including a center housing; a front housing fastened to the center housing and forming a suction chamber; a rear housing fastened to the center housing and forming a compression mechanism accommodation space. Fixed scroll is in the compression mechanism accommodation space. An orbiting scroll interposes between the center housing and the fixed scroll forming a compression chamber together with the fixed scroll. Fixed scroll may include a fixed scroll end plate and a fixed scroll side plate protruded from outer circumferential portion of fixed scroll end plate, fastened to the center housing, and forming orbiting space of orbiting scroll. Outer circumferential portion of the center housing may be formed with an inflow hole for communicating with the suction chamber. Distal end surface of the fixed scroll side plate is formed with a suction port for guiding the refrigerant of the inflow hole to the compression chamber.

A gear pump includes: an inner rotor having external teeth; an outer rotor having a tubular inner housing portion in which the inner rotor is rotatably housed in an eccentric state, and internal teeth meshing with the external teeth; a first core having a tubular rotor housing portion in which the inner and outer rotors are housed, and a flange portion projecting radially outward from a tube wall of the rotor housing portion; a board-shaped second core having a contact portion in contact with the flange portion in an axial direction, and closing an opening of the rotor housing portion; and a housing opposing the second core and made of a resin. A gap is formed between opposing surfaces of the second core and the housing in a state where the flange portion is in contact with the contact portion and the housing opposes the second core.

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.

Technologies are generally described for clearance adjustments in twin-screw pump assemblies. A twin-screw pump assembly may include a conically shaped portion of a drive shaft enveloped by a bushing. For clearance adjustment, both clamping nuts of the drive shaft, which provide pretention to the bushing and secure an axial position of a threaded screw to the drive shaft, may be removed on the flow side of the pump assembly and the bushing loosened to adjust the angularity between bushing and drive shaft. The bushing may then be pushed over the conically shaped portion and both clamping nuts re-assembled. In some examples, a clamping nut of the driven shaft may be designed and used as removal/loosening tool for the drive shaft bushing.

An electric compressor includes a compression portion, an electric motor, a drive circuit that has a circuit board on which electronic components are mounted, a housing, and a resin member. At least one of the electronic components is held by the resin member with the resin member sandwiched between the at least one of the electronic component and the circuit board. The electronic compressor includes a first metal member that is in contact with the at least one of the electronic components, and thermally connected to the housing, a second metal member that is disposed in the resin member, and a bolt by which the first metal member and the second metal member are fastened with each other.

A pump includes a pump housing including an inlet for the fluid on a low-pressure side, an outlet for the fluid on a high-pressure side, a circumferential wall facing faces axially away from the delivery chamber and on which the outlet emerges; a spring structure arranged on the outer end face of the end wall; a delivery member movable within the delivery chamber for delivering the fluid from the low-pressure side to the high-pressure side; and a securing device for axial securing the pump housing. The securing device includes a female holding element having an axially extending cavity and a male holding element in a joining engagement, exposable to an axial tensile load, with the female holding element in the cavity. The spring structure and/or the end wall is/are held on the pump housing by one of the holding elements by the joining engagement.

A sealing joint for a compressor casing, such as a compressor casing for a centrifugal compressor of a chiller, is provided. The sealing joint may be configured to have a first cover and a second cover. A first mating surface of the first cover may have an inner annular portion surrounding an inner cavity of the sealing joint, and an outer annular portion. The inner annular portion may be positioned between the inner cavity of the compressor casing and the outer annular portion. A sealant may be applied to the sealing joint, and a depth of the sealant on the inner annular portion may be deeper than a depth of the sealant on the outer annular portion. The depth of the sealant on the inner annular portion may help the sealing joint tolerate more elongation range without a sealant failure than a regular casing.

A compressor may include a shell, a bearing housing, an orbiting scroll, and a non-orbiting scroll. The bearing housing is supported within the shell and includes a central body and a plurality of arms. Each arm extends radially outwardly from the central body and has a first aperture. The orbiting scroll is supported on the bearing housing. The non-orbiting scroll is meshingly engaged with the orbiting scroll and includes a plurality of second apertures. Each second aperture receives a plurality of bushings and a fastener. The fastener extends through the bushings and into a corresponding one of the first apertures in the bearing housing to rotatably secure the non-orbiting scroll relative to the bearing housing while allowing relative axial movement between the non-orbiting scroll and the bearing housing.

A scroll type air compressor provided by the invention utilizes an L-shape mounting frame for respectively mounting a compressor and a generator to a first mounting section and a second mounting section thereon. The generator is mounted to the second mounting section via a plate and is capable of being fine-tuned in displacement with respect to the plate, such that a second end surface of a second drive pulley of the generator can be made coplanar with a first end surface of a first drive pulley of the compressor. The position of the plate can also be adjusted up and down with respect to the second mounting section to a required position so that the distance between the drive pulleys of the generator and the compressor can be adjusted and the tension of a transmission belt can be determined.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a scroll-type fluid machine for which maintenance can easily be performed in necessary locations, and a maintenance method for said fluid machine. The present invention provides a scroll-type fluid machined characterized by being provided with a main body unit for compressing a fluid, and a motor unit for driving the main body unit; the main body unit having a fixed scroll, a revolving scroll, a main body casing, and an autorotation-preventing mechanism that is held by the revolving scroll and the main body casing and that prevents autorotation of the revolving scroll; the motor unit having a rotor, a stator for causing the rotor to rotate, a shaft that rotates integrally with the rotor, a motor cover for housing the rotor and the stator, and a main bearing that is secured to the interior by the motor cover and that supports the shaft; a distal end of the shaft having an eccentric part; the main body unit and the motor unit being connected via the eccentric part; and the main body casing and the motor cover being fastened by a fastening member.
