A lubricating oil supply apparatus having a structure in which a valve is forced in a direction for opening a bypass hole by a centrifugal force, and a spring presses the valve in a direction in which the valve closes the bypass hole. When the above-described structure is applied to an oil pump in which an oil (lubricating oil) supply amount increases in proportion to an operation speed, it is possible to secure a sufficient oil (lubricating oil) supply amount in a low speed operation mode, and prevent oil from being supplied more than necessary in a high speed operation mode.

A crankshaft assembly, a compressor and a refrigeration device are provided. The crankshaft assembly has an eccentric shaft component, a spindle component and a main screw oil pump. The eccentric shaft component has an eccentric cavity, and the spindle component has a first cavity communicated with the eccentric cavity. A first through-hole and a second through-hole in a first spindle are each communicated with the first cavity. An outer surface of the first spindle is provided with a first spiral oil groove connecting the first through-hole and the second through-hole. An outer surface of the main screw oil pump is provided with a second spiral oil groove along its length direction, and a spiral direction of the second spiral oil groove is opposite that of the first spiral oil groove.

A sealed refrigerant compressor (10A) accommodates an electric component (20A) and a compression component (30) in a sealed container (11). A crankshaft (40) included in the compression component (30) includes a main shaft part (41) and an eccentric shaft part (42). A main shaft part (41) is secured to a rotor (22A) of the electric component (20A). The rotor (22A) is provided with a balance adjustment means such as a balance hole (27), which adjusts an unbalanced load caused by the structure of the main shaft part (41).

A compressor includes a casing having a cylindrical barrel, a compression mechanism, and an electric motor. The electric motor has a tubular stator, and a rotor disposed inside the stator. The stator has a back yoke forming an outer peripheral portion of the stator, a plurality of teeth extending radially inward, and slots. A fluid passage extends between an outer peripheral surface of the stator and an inner peripheral surface of the barrel. The fluid passage has a plurality of wide portions arranged in a circumferential direction of the stator, and a narrow portion provided between adjacent ones of the wide portions. The narrow portion has a smaller radial width than each of the wide portions. Each wide portion is provided in the outer peripheral surface of the stator and between a core cut having a recessed groove shape between the slots and the inner peripheral surface of the barrel.

A crankshaft, an inverter compressor and a refrigeration device are provided. The crankshaft has a main shaft, a crank, and a crank shaft at an end of the main shaft through the crank. The main shaft has an oil suction inner chamber, and an oil distribution channel penetrating the crank shaft. An outer wall surface of the main shaft has a first spiral oil groove and a second spiral oil groove. One end of each of the first spiral oil groove and a second spiral oil groove is in communication with the oil suction inner chamber. Another end of the first spiral oil groove and another end of the second spiral oil groove are formed as a first hole channel and a second hole channel in communication with the oil distribution channel, respectively.

A hermetic compressor accommodates in hermetic container (101) electric motor element (102) and compression element (103) driven by electric motor element (102). Compression element (103) includes crankshaft (110) including main shaft (115), eccentric shaft (114), and flange (116), cylinder block (111) having cylinder bore (123) passing through cylinder block (111) in a cylindrical shape, and piston (112) configured to reciprocate in cylinder bore (123). Compression element (103) also includes connecting rod (113) connecting piston (112) and eccentric shaft (114) and bearing (124) formed on cylinder block (111) for pivotally supporting a radial load that acts on main shaft (115) of crankshaft (110). Crankshaft (110) further includes communicating oil supply passage (118) provided in flange (116), main shaft oil supply passage (119) configured for communication between communicating oil supply passage (118) and cylindrical surface (115a) of main shaft (115), and eccentric shaft oil supply passage (120) configured for communication between communicating oil supply passage (118) and cylindrical surface (114a) of eccentric shaft (114).

A lubricating oil supply apparatus may include a rotational portion that rotates together with a rotational shaft and a fixed portion that maintains a fixed location thereof and supplies oil through a space that circles with respect to a rotational center of the rotational portion, thereby supplying oil regardless of a rotational direction of the rotational shaft.

A crankshaft is provided. The crankshaft has a first shaft, a second shaft and a first crank arm. A first oil passage is formed in the first shaft along an axis direction of the shaft. A second oil passage is formed in the second shaft along an axis direction of the shaft. The first crank arm is configured to be connected between the first shaft and the second shaft. The first crank arm is provided with a third oil passage. The third oil passage is configured to communicate the first oil passage and the second oil passage. The second shaft is eccentrically provided relative to the axis of the first shaft. A compressor having the crankshaft and a refrigeration device having the compressor are also provided.

A hermetic compressor includes: a compression unit; a motor unit; a crankshaft that connects the motor unit and the compression unit; and a bearing member provided with a shaft receiving hole so as to support the crankshaft in a radial direction. An oil supply groove that defines a part of an oil supply passage is formed on an outer circumferential surface of the crankshaft, and the oil supply groove is provided between the outer circumferential surface of the crankshaft and an inner circumferential surface of the bearing member facing the outer circumferential surface of the crankshaft to be located out of pressed regions generated when the crankshaft rotates. As the oil supply groove that supplies oil to a bearing surface between the crankshaft and a main bearing is formed by avoiding the pressed regions, oil may be smoothly supplied to the bearing surface.

A hermetic compressor may include a frame, a crankshaft, and an oil pump. The crankshaft may be rotatably mounted to the frame. The oil pump may be mounted to a lower portion of the crankshaft to be rotatable together with the crankshaft. The oil pump may pump oil from a lower region to an upper region of a shell using centrifugal force. The crankshaft may be provided with a hollow hole therein that is inclined in two directions with respect to an axial direction of the crankshaft. This may result in increasing a dynamic pressure for scattering the oil to the upper region of the shell and an oil supply amount.
