A rotary compressor includes a cylinder, a drive unit, a piston, a vane, and an oil passage. The cylinder includes a suction chamber for suctioning fluid and a compression chamber for compressing fluid. The drive unit rotates a drive shaft by connecting to the cylinder. The piston oscillates in the cylinder by connecting to the drive shaft. The vane extends between the cylinder and the piston so as to separate the suction chamber from the compression chamber, and some parts of the length of the vane are inserted into a slide groove formed in the cylinder. One end of the vane is connected to the coupling groove formed in the piston. The oil passage is disposed between one end of the vane and the rolling piston so as to receive oil therethrough.

A rotary compressor includes a roller that is provided with oil grooves concavely formed in a centrifugal direction from an inner circumferential surface of the roller facing an eccentric portion. The oil grooves are disposed at positions not overlapping an intake and a discharge port in an axial direction.

A rotary compressor includes a cylinder having a vane slot and a compression chamber, a shaft having an eccentric portion and configured to perpendicularly pass through a center of the compression chamber, a roller having a coupling groove and configured to orbit in the compression chamber by rotation of the shaft, and a vane having a vane hinge coupled to the coupling groove and a vane body being inserted into the vane slot and configured to divide the compression chamber into a discharge space and a suction space. A shape of the discharge-sided groove close to the discharge space and a shape of the suction-sided groove close to the suction space are asymmetrically formed between the vane hinge and the vane body with respect to the a central axis of the vane.

A rotary compressor is disclosed. The rotary compressor includes a sidewall path formed in an inner wall of a cylinder facing a vane slot and configured to form a space facing a side surface of a vane, and the vane is provided with a communication part configured to selectively communicate between the outside of the vane slot and the sidewall path according to a position of the vane.

A rotary compressor has a combined vane-roller structure that may ensure improved productivity and reliability through control of mechanical properties. The rotary compressor includes a coupling groove which is disposed at one side of an outer circumferential surface of the roller, which has a circular arc shape from an outer diameter of the roller towards an inner diameter of the roller, and which is configured to couple a vane and the roller, and includes a ferrosoferric oxide (Fe.sub.3O.sub.4) film on a surface of the coupling groove. A manufacturing method of the rotary compressor is also described.

The present invention relates to a centrifugal suction-type hybrid vane fluid machine and, more particularly, to a centrifugal suction-type hybrid vane fluid machine wherein a cam ring, which rotates inside a compressor, has a plurality of final intake openings formed through the same from the inner peripheral edge to the outer peripheral edge thereof, thereby facilitating inflow of a fluid during rotation; an oil passage is formed therein so as to seal inner constituent elements and to apply a backpressure of vanes, thereby preventing leakage of the fluid and reducing friction; the same number of initial fluid discharge openings are formed as that of the vane or fluid chambers, thereby improving the efficiency of the compressor; and the cam ring is installed eccentrically so as to increase the rotational contact force, thereby improving the efficiency of the compressor while having all advantages of conventional compressors.

A rotary compressor may include a rotary shaft; a plurality of plates that supports the rotary shaft; a cylinder provided between the plurality of plates to define a compression space, and provided with a vane slot; a roller slidably coupled to the rotary shaft inside of the cylinder, and having a hinge groove on an outer circumferential surface thereof; and a vane, a first end of which is slidably coupled to the vane slot of the cylinder, and a second end of which is rotatably coupled to the hinge groove of the roller. At least one of first and second axial end surfaces of the roller facing the plurality of plates is provided with a dimple portion having a predetermined depth. With this structure, contact surfaces between the roller and the plate may be prevented from being in close contact with each other, preventing the roller or the plate from being damaged or a performance of the compressor from deteriorating due to friction loss, thereby improving reliability and performance of the compressor.
