A motor-operated compressor includes a casing having a motor chamber that accommodates a driving motor. The compressor also includes a frame. A first scroll having a first spiral wrap is connected to one side of the frame. A second scroll is provided between the frame and the first scroll. The second scroll has a second spiral wrap that engages with the first spiral warp to form compression chambers between the first and second spiral wraps. The compressor also includes a rotation shaft connected at one end to the driving motor and at an opposite end to the second scroll. The compressor includes a back pressure space defined by a balance weight axially separated from a rear surface of the second scroll. A back pressure passage fluidly connects the compression chambers with the back pressure space.

A scroll compressor with oil return unit, having a fixed spiral and an orbiting spiral, which compresses gas from a suction-pressure chamber into a high-pressure chamber. A counter-pressure chamber is connected to the orbiting spiral and the orbiting spiral presses onto the fixed spiral. The oil return unit has a counter-pressure spiral nozzle having a high-pressure channel connected to an end face for oil supply. A suction-pressure spiral nozzle with a suction-pressure channel connected to the end face discharges oil into the suction-pressure chamber. A counter-pressure channel is arranged between the counter-pressure spiral nozzle and the suction-pressure spiral nozzle for discharging oil into the counter-pressure chamber.

A scroll compressor includes a fixed scroll including a fixed scroll lap, and a movable scroll including a movable scroll lap. A first scroll lap is one of the fixed scroll lap and the movable scroll lap. A second scroll lap is an other of the fixed scroll lap and the movable scroll lap. A second thickness of the second scroll lap is larger than a first thickness of the first scroll lap. A first side face gap is formed between an inner line of the first scroll lap and an outer line of the second scroll lap. A second side face gap is formed between an outer line of the first scroll lap and an inner line of the second scroll lap. The second side face gap is larger than the first side face gap.

A light-weight, high-strength compressor component having at least one fluid delivery feature that is formed via additive manufacturing is provided. The component may have at least one interior region comprising a lattice structure that comprises a plurality of repeating cells. A solid surface is disposed over the lattice structure. The interior region comprising the lattice structure has at least one fluid delivery feature for permitting fluid flow through the body portion of the light-weight, high-strength compressor component. The fluid delivery feature may be a flow channel, a fluid delivery port, a porous fluid delivery feature, or the like that serves to transfer fluids through the component, such as refrigerant and/or lubricant oils. Methods of making such compressor components via additive manufacturing processes are also provided.

Provided is a pin-ring mechanism (26) that supports a driving-side scroll member and a driven-side scroll member such that the driving-side scroll member and the driven-side scroll member are in relative revolving motion. The pin-ring mechanism (26) includes: a pin member (30); a ring member (34) that has an inner ring (34b) which comes into contact with the pin member (30), a plurality of balls (34c) which roll on the inner ring (34b), and a retainer (34d); and a bush 36 that is disposed on an inner periphery of the inner ring (34b), and receives a component of force in a circumferential direction of the inner ring (34b) from the pin member (30) to rotate together with the inner ring (34b).

A scroll compressor includes a fixed scroll fixed inside a housing, an orbiting scroll configured to orbit engaged with the fixed scroll, a rotary shaft configured to allow the orbiting scroll to orbit by supporting the orbiting scroll with an eccentric shaft eccentric from a main shaft, and a slide bush portion installed between a bearing of the orbiting scroll and the eccentric shaft and according to a rotational speed of the rotary shaft, configured to change a pressing force of the orbiting scroll applied to the fixed scroll by allowing an eccentricity to be changed by a gas load applied to the orbiting scroll.

Disclosed herein is a compressor with an oil return unit. The compressor includes: a main housing; a turning scroll which is turnably mounted to the housing; a fixed scroll which engages with the turning scroll and forms a compression chamber; an auxiliary housing which includes a discharge space communicating with an outlet side of the fixed scroll, and a collection space in which oil collected in the discharge space is temporarily stored; an oil return passage which is formed in the fixed scroll and communicates with the collection space; and an oil supply passage which is formed in the main housing, communicates with the oil return passage, and diverges such that oil is supplied to at least two places.

A scroll compressor comprising a fixed scroll (15); an orbiting scroll (16) supported in a manner allowing for orbiting motion; a discharge port through which a fluid compressed by the two scrolls (15, 16) is discharged; an end plate step portion (16E) provided on an end plate of the orbiting scroll (16) formed so that a height of the end plate is higher on a center portion side in the direction of a spiral wrap and lower on an outer end side; and a wrap step portion (15E) provided on a wall portion of the fixed scroll (15) that corresponds to the end plate step portion (16E) so that a height of the wall portion is lower on the center portion side of the spiral and higher on the outer end side; wherein the orbiting scroll (16) is treated for surface hardening and the fixed scroll (15) is not treated for surface hardening.

A compressor includes a shell, a bearing housing, an orbiting scroll, a non-orbiting scroll and a spacer. The bearing housing includes a central body and a plurality of arms extending radially outwardly from the central body. Each of the arms has a first aperture. The non-orbiting scroll is meshingly engaged with the orbiting scroll and includes a plurality of second apertures. Each second aperture receives a bushing defining a first longitudinal axis and a fastener defining a second longitudinal axis. The fastener extends through the bushing and into a corresponding one of the first apertures in the bearing housing. The spacer is disposed between the bushing and the fastener of each second aperture and is configured to engage one of the bushing and the fastener to restrict radial misalignment between the first longitudinal axis of the bushing and the second longitudinal axis of the fastener.
