COMPRESSOR AND REFRIGERATION CYCLE APPARATUS

A compressor includes a container provided with an oil reservoir which is provided at a bottom portion of the container to allow oil to be collected in the oil reservoir. The container is provided such that a rotary shaft is inclined relative to the direction of gravity or to be laid horizontal. In the container, an electric motor mechanism, the rotary shaft, a compression mechanism and a frame which fixes the compression mechanism to the container are provided. To the container, a suction pipe is connected to cause refrigerant to flow into space between the frame and the electric motor mechanism. In the frame, a suction port is formed to cause the refrigerant having flowed into the space to flow into the compression mechanism, and each of the suction portion and a connection port of the suction pipe, which connects with the container is located at a position which is higher than or the same as the level of the rotary shaft as seen in a rotation axial direction. A rib is formed in a first flow passage which extends downwards in the direction of gravity from the connection port, extends through an area located above the oil reservoir, and reaches the suction port.

A pin-ring mechanism that transmits driving force to cause a driving-side scroll member and a driven-side scroll member to perform rotational movement in a same direction at a same angular velocity is provided. A driving-side end plate includes a ring member installation hole into which a ring member is inserted and installed. The ring member installation hole includes a non-wall-side hole part and a wall-side hole part. The non-wall-side hole part is formed from a non-wall-side surface and has a diameter corresponding to an outer diameter of the ring member. The wall-side hole part is formed from a wall-side surface and has a diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the ring member.

Co-rotating compressor with multiple compression mechanisms and system having same

A compressor may include a shell, first and second compression mechanisms, first and second motor assemblies, first and second suction inlet fittings, and first and second discharge outlet fittings. The first and second compression mechanisms are disposed within the shell. The first and second motor assemblies are disposed within the shell and drive the first and second compression mechanisms, respectively. The first and second motor assemblies are operable independently of each other. The first suction inlet fitting may be attached to the shell and provides fluid to the first compression mechanism. The first discharge outlet fitting may be attached to the shell and receives fluid compressed by the first compression mechanism. The second suction inlet fitting may be attached to the shell and provides fluid to the second compression mechanism. The second discharge outlet fitting may be attached to the shell and receives fluid compressed by the second compression mechanism.

Scroll compressor with axial flux motor

A compressor may include a first compression member, a second compression member, and a motor assembly. The second compression member is movable relative to the first compression member and cooperates with the first compression member to define a compression pocket therebetween. The motor assembly drives one of the first and second compression members relative to the other one of the first and second compression members. The motor assembly includes a stator and a rotor. The rotor is rotatable relative to the stator about a rotational axis. The stator surrounds the rotational axis. The rotor may include magnets that are arranged around the rotational axis. The magnets may be spaced apart from the stator in an axial direction that is parallel to the first rotational axis.

A compressor may include first and second scroll members, first and second bearings, and first and second Oldham couplings. The scroll members define compression pockets. The first bearing may define a first rotational axis about which the first scroll member rotates. The second bearing may support the second scroll member for rotation about a second rotational axis that is offset from the first rotational axis. The first Oldham coupling may include a first body and a plurality of first keys extending from the first body. The first keys may engage slots formed in the second scroll member. The second Oldham coupling is separate and distinct from the first Oldham coupling. The second Oldham coupling may include a second body and a plurality of second keys extending from the second body. The second keys may engage slots formed in a surface that rotates about the first rotational axis.

SCROLL MACHINE AND VEHICLE AIR-CONDITIONING SYSTEM

A scroll machine is particularly suited as a scroll compressor for refrigerant in a vehicle air-conditioning system. First and second scrolls are each formed with a base plate and with a spiral wall that projects from the base plate and follows a spiral line. The spiral wall of the second scroll engages in a spiral path formed by the first scroll and the spiral walls form a number of compressor chambers. The spiral walls have respective wall surface profiles in regions on their wall surfaces, with the wall surface profile being superposed on the spiral line. As the facing wall surface profile contacts a respective other spiral wall a contact normal at a point of contact, which contact normal extends obliquely with respect to a corresponding local normal of the corresponding first or second spiral line.
