The present invention relates to rotary screw positive displacement machines used as a vacuum pump wherein additional intake air is provided allowing cooling to the invention which permits extended operation at extreme vacuum pressure. The rotary screw nature of the vacuum pump allows operation without additional lubrication with the additional intake air ensuring that thermal expansion will not disrupt the tight tolerances of the invention. The invention allows simultaneous operation as a vacuum pump and air compressor.

The motor cooler includes a pump that pumps the cooling working fluid into the motor housing based on a rotational speed of the drive shaft.

A liquid ring pump manifold comprising at least one integrated spray nozzle, the at least one integrated spray nozzle being configured to spray a liquid into the liquid ring pump manifold. The liquid ring pump manifold may comprise at least one socket in which the at least one integrated spray nozzle is accommodated. The at least one socket may be integrally formed with the liquid ring pump manifold.

A stationary scroll plate for use in a scroll compressor is described. The stationary scroll plate comprises a base plate having a first side and a second side, wherein the second side opposes the first side; a spiral wrap formed at the first side of the base plate, wherein the spiral wrap is adapted to interact with a corresponding spiral wrap of an orbiting scroll plate to form a compression chamber; an injection channel formed within the base plate, the injection channel providing an injection path for injection of fluid into the compression chamber; a recess located at the second side; an insert placed within the recess, wherein the insert forms a cooling chamber within the recess; an inlet channel via which the cooling chamber is connected to the injection channel; and an outlet channel via which the cooling chamber is connected to the inside of the spiral wrap.

A scroll plate for use in a scroll compressor is described. The scroll plate comprises a base plate having a first side and a second side, wherein the second side opposes the first side, and a spiral wrap formed on the first side of the base plate, wherein the base plate comprises one or more recesses and wherein an insulating material is located in at least one of the one or more recesses. Further, a scroll compressor having a corresponding scroll plate is described.

A compressor operable in a heat pump mode of a refrigerant circuit includes a compression space in which a refrigerant is compressed. The compression space includes a discharge port and an injection port. A discharge chamber is fluidly coupled to the compression space by the discharge port. An injection chamber is fluidly coupled to the compression space by the injection port. A discharge recirculation pathway selectively provides fluid communication between the discharge chamber and the injection chamber. An injection of the recirculated refrigerant into the compression space through the injection port results in an increase in pressure, and hence temperature, of the refrigerant when discharged to the discharge chamber. The increased temperature of the discharged refrigerant increases a heating capacity of a condenser of the associated refrigerant circuit.

A scroll compressor of the present disclosure includes a housing; a motor provided in the housing; a rotating shaft rotated by the motor; an orbital scroll orbital moved by the rotating shaft; and a fixed scroll forming a compression chamber together with the orbital scroll, wherein the housing includes a center housing through which the rotating shaft passes; a front housing forming a motor accommodating space in which the motor is accommodated; and a rear housing having a discharge chamber accommodating a refrigerant discharged from the compression chamber, a discharge port guiding the refrigerant of the discharge chamber to an outside of the housing, an introduction port into which an intermediate pressure refrigerant is introduced from the outside of the housing, and an introduction chamber accommodating the refrigerant introduced through the introduction port, and wherein the fixed scroll comprises an injection hole guiding the refrigerant of the introduction chamber to the compression chamber. Thereby, an amount of refrigerant discharged from the compression chamber is increased, and thus the performance and efficiency of the compressor may be improved.

A pumping system is provided, including a rough-vacuum pump; a Roots vacuum pump including a pumping stage having a stator inside which two Roots rotors are configured to rotate synchronously in opposite directions to drive a gas to be pumped between an inlet orifice and an outlet orifice; and a pipeline connecting the outlet orifice to an intake of the rough-vacuum pump, a shortest distance between an edge of the outlet orifice and each of the Roots rotors in the pumping stage being less than 3 cm, and the outlet orifice being situated at the end of an upstream tube of the pipeline that passes into the pumping stage.
