20230050093 · 2023-02-16 ·

A dual-drive co-rotating scroll device includes a housing; a first scroll rotatably mounted within the housing via a first cylindrical extension and a first plurality of bearings, and having a first axis of rotation; and a second scroll rotatably mounted within the housing via a second cylindrical extension and a second plurality of bearings, and having a second axis of rotation different than the first axis of rotation. At least one of the first cylindrical extension and the second cylindrical extension may comprise a plurality of permanent magnets and operate as a rotor of a first motor. An Oldham ring may be positioned between the first scroll and the second scroll and configured to maintain a relative angular position between the first scroll and the second scroll.

Oil-free scroll air compressor with double parallel grooves on both sides

An oil-free scroll air compressor, includes two fixed scrolls and a movable scroll with scroll wraps on both sides. The fixed scrolls each are provided on an end surface thereof with scroll wraps. The movable scroll with scroll wraps on both sides is provided on both end surfaces thereof with scroll wraps. The two fixed scrolls and the movable scroll with scroll wraps on both sides together form two gas compression channels located on two sides. The scroll warps on a same end surface are configured as a double-parallel-groove structure, which further divides the gas compression channel on the same side into two gas compression channels, thereby increasing displacement of the scroll air compressor. After a gas is introduced through a gas inlet on a circumferential surface of the fixed scroll, the gas is compressed in multiple compression channels and then discharged from a center of the scroll air compressor.

A scroll compressor is disclosed. The scroll compressor may include an anti-rotation mechanism provided with an anti-rotation pin and an anti-rotation ring between an orbiting scroll and a scroll support member facing the orbiting scroll, and an axial thickness of the ring body portion constituting the anti-rotation ring may be larger than an axial depth of a ring insertion groove in which the anti-rotation ring is inserted. This can allow the orbiting scroll and a member facing the same to be spaced physically apart without a separate member, to secure a gap for oil to flow, such that the oil can be smoothly supplied between the orbiting scroll and the member, thereby suppressing seizure or/and friction loss between the orbiting scroll and the member.

Scroll compressor with asymmetrical Oldham's ring

Disclosed is a scroll type compressor having an Oldham's ring having an asymmetrical structure with respect to a long or minor axis thereof.

Dynamic radial compliance in scroll compressors

In some examples, a scroll compressor may include an orbiting scroll and a fixed scroll having spiral involutes intermeshed together. A slider block may be disposed on the eccentric portion of a main shaft and the slider block may be attached to a compliant counterweight. The counterweight may be supported by a counterweight guide plate that is supported by the main shaft. The counterweight guide plate may also have an arm securing a top portion of the counterweight thereby securing the slider block. In some implementations, a spring assembly may be provided between an outer edge of the counterweight and the counterweight guide plate. These components may, in part, allow for a constant involute contact between the fixed scroll and orbiting scroll involutes at high speeds thereby achieving high compression efficiency.

ROTARY COMPRESSOR AND REFRIGERATION CYCLE DEVICE

A rotary compressor according to an embodiment includes a plurality of eccentric parts, a first balancer, and a second balancer. The plurality of eccentric parts include a first eccentric part, a second eccentric part, and a third eccentric part disposed to be aligned from one side to the other side. The second balancer is disposed on the other side of the first balancer. Angles between a direction of eccentricity of the first balancer and directions of eccentricity of the plurality of eccentric parts are configured to increase in an order of the third eccentric part, the second eccentric part, and the first eccentric part. Angles between a direction of eccentricity of the second balancer and directions of eccentricity of the plurality of eccentric parts are configured to increase in an order of the first eccentric part, the second eccentric part, and the third eccentric part.
