The propagation of a disproportionation reaction of a refrigerant is suppressed. Disclosed is a method of using a composition as a refrigerant in a compressor, in which the composition includes one or more compounds selected from the group of ethylene-based fluoroolefins, 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene, and 1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene, and the dimension of a gap of a predetermined portion through which the refrigerant flows around an ignition energy generation portion in the compressor is less than or equal to 2 mm.

A rotor includes a rotor core having a magnet insertion hole and having an annular shape about an axis, and a permanent magnet of a flat plate shape disposed in the magnet insertion hole and having a thickness and a width in a plane perpendicular to the axis. The thickness of the permanent magnet defines a thickness direction, and the width of the permanent magnet defines a widthwise direction. The magnet insertion hole has a portion inclined relative to the widthwise direction so that an opening dimension T1 in the thickness direction at an end of the magnet insertion hole in the widthwise direction is smaller than an opening dimension T2 in the thickness direction at a position distanced from the end by the width of the permanent magnet.

An actuator assembly includes a first actuator, a second actuator, and a moving piece that is disposed between the first actuator and the second actuator. The moving piece is positionable to close a gap in the compressor.

The present disclosure relates to an electric motor, and a compressor having the same. The electric motor includes a stator, and a rotor. The rotor includes a rotation shaft, a rotor core, and a plurality of permanent magnets. The rotor core includes permanent magnet insertion portions each formed therethrough in an axial direction so that the permanent magnet is inserted, and slots each formed through the rotor core in a manner that a core area of a front portion of a d-axis is smaller than a core area of a rear portion of the d-axis in a rotating direction of the rotor when an outer core part of the permanent magnet insertion portion is divided with respect to the d-axis. Accordingly, a decrease in inertia can be suppressed and an occurrence of vibration and noise due to Magnetic Pull Force (MPF) can be prevented.

A rotary compressor (1) includes a hermetically sealed compressor housing (10) that is provided with a refrigerant discharge portion (107) and refrigerant suction portions (104, 105), a compression unit (12) that is arranged in the compressor housing (10) and compresses a refrigerant, sucked from the suction portions (104, 105), and discharges it from the discharge portion (107), a motor (11) that is arranged in the compressor housing (10) and drives the compression unit (12), an accumulator that is connected to the suction portions (104, 105), and a mounting member (50) that secures the accumulator to the compressor housing (10). The compressor housing (10) and an accumulator container (26) of the accumulator are made of a metal material. The mounting member (50) is at least partially made of a resin material and has a first joint portion (J1), which is joined to an outer peripheral surface (10a) of the compressor housing (10).

A compressor and an air conditioning system. The compressor includes a low-pressure-stage compressor body and a high-pressure-stage compressor body, where the low-pressure-stage compressor body is provided with a low-pressure-stage suction port and a low-pressure-stage exhaust port, the high-pressure-stage compressor body is provided with a high-pressure-stage suction port and a high-pressure-stage exhaust port, a communication pipeline is arranged between the low-pressure-stage exhaust port and the high-pressure-stage suction port, the low-pressure-stage suction port communicates with a low-pressure-stage gas source, and the high-pressure-stage suction port has a first state of communication with the low-pressure-stage exhaust port and a second state of communication with the low-pressure-stage gas source.

A stator includes a stator core having a plurality of teeth, an insulator, a plurality of coils, a first region in which distal ends of feeder lines are connected to each other, and a second region in which distal ends of neutral lines are connected to each other. The insulator has inner and outer walls spaced from each other in a radial direction. In a cross section at a gap between two adjacent coils, along a plane including an axis of the stator core, a center of gravity of the first region is positioned above a center of gravity of the second region in an axial direction. B < A and C < A, where a radial length of the first region is B, a radial length of the second region is C, and a radial length between the inner wall and the outer wall of the insulator is A.

A compressor includes a diffuser passage configured to receive refrigerant flow from an impeller of the compressor, where the diffuser passage is at least partially defined by a compressor discharge plate of the compressor. The compressor also includes a variable geometry diffuser positioned within the diffuser passage and configured to adjust a dimension of a refrigerant flow path through the diffuser passage, an actuator coupled to the variable geometry diffuser and configured to adjust a position of the variable geometry diffuser within the diffuser passage, and a controller configured to regulate operation of the actuator. The controller is configured to instruct the actuator to adjust the position of the variable geometry diffuser from a first position to a second position using a first force and to adjust the position of the variable geometry diffuser from the second position to a third position using a second force less than the first force, where the variable geometry diffuser abuts the compressor discharge plate in the third position.

The present disclosure relates to a motor operated compressor, including a housing, a compressor provided in the housing, a motor connected to the compressor to drive the compressor, an inverter coupled to one side of the housing, and connected to the motor unit in an electrically conductive manner. The motor operated compressor includes a hermetic terminal assembly, one side of which extends into the inverter unit, and an opposite side of which extends into the housing. A plurality of busbars have one end of each busbar connected to the opposite side of the hermetic terminal assembly, and the other end of each busbar connected to the motor unit. A first insulating cover portion encloses and seals the hermetic terminal assembly and the plurality of busbars inside the housing, such that a conductive body connecting the motor unit and the inverter unit in the main housing is sealed from refrigerant.
