摘要:
A thermally responsive valve establishes a discharge to suction bleed responsive to the actuation of a thermal actuator. The thermal actuator is responsive to the temperature of the floor of the fixed scroll in a region near the outlet so that the actuator is responsive to local conditions indicative of impending failure.
摘要:
A pressure ratio responsive valve is provided to control a discharge to suction bypass in a scroll compressor. The valve is acted on by suction pressure, discharge pressure and an intermediate pressure. When the compressor is operating at too high of a pressure ratio, the valve is opened to create a discharge to suction bypass.

Seal structure for a scroll compressor is provided with localized magnetic surfaces. The seal is carried by one member and the magnetic surface coacts with a facing ferromagnetic surface to provide a seal therebetween even when the members are axially displaced and where there is orbiting motion therebetween.
摘要:
A linear compressor is provided. The linear compressor includes an electro-magnetic spring and a casing that defines a chamber. A piston is received within the chamber of the casing. The electro-magnetic spring can apply a non-linear force to the piston such that a total spring force applied to the piston during a compression stroke is substantially linear.

An improved housing for scroll compressor has the end cap housing formed integrally with the fixed scroll member. The end cap housing is preferably welded to a tubular housing enclosing the scroll compressor. Most preferably, the end housing has inner and outer tubular portions and the tubular housing extends upwardly into a channel between the inner and outer tubular portions. A muffler is preferably formed integrally with the end cap and extends to a side of the end cap. The present invention further includes heat transfer fins extending from the end cap. The positioning of the muffler to the side decreases the overall length of the compressor. The use of the fins increases the efficiency of compression as heat is removed from the compression chambers. The use of the unique combined end cap and fixed scroll which is welded to the tubular housing simplifies assembly.
摘要:
A scroll compressor having an apparatus for minimizing oil leakage during reverse running is provided. The compressor includes a suction tube for allowing gas to enter the compressor housing. One oil minimizing apparatus is a check valve disposed at the suction tube having a spring normally biased against the inlet suction tube so as to prevent oil from exiting the suction tube during reverse running of the motor of the compressor. An alternative oil minimizing apparatus is an oil dam extending longitudinally above the suction tube on an inner surface of the compressor housing. The oil dam bends circumferentially with the inner surface for draining oil along the inner surface away from the suction tube.

A scroll compressor of the type having a cantilever mounted shaft is provided with a carbon crankcase bearing. Further, the bearing mounting the eccentric pin within the orbiting scroll is also formed of a carbon material. The bearing mounting the lower end of the shaft is further formed of the carbon material. The carbon bearing insures that the shaft will be quickly worn away should there be shaft misalignment.

摘要:
A scroll compressor (10) is disclosed which incorporates a magnet (88) in a depression (90) formed in the lower shell (12) by forming a coined surface (82). The depression forms a side wall (92) which confines the magnet therein so that no additional fastening mechanism is required. The magnet is preferably a ring magnet (88) which is centered about the rotational axis of the drive shaft (40) and near the end of the oil pick-up tube (62) so that oil passes close to the magnet (88) as it enters the oil pick-up tube. The magnet separates magnetic debris, such as metal filings, from the oil. In another embodiment, a pair of magnets (112) can be positioned in multiple coined surfaces on the lower shell.
摘要:
A back pressure chamber seal for use in a scroll type compressor that is located between the adjacent surface on the back of the orbiting scroll and the machine casing. Seals are loosely received in endless grooves formed in one of the two adjacent surfaces and are magnetically held in contact against the other adjacent surface and one wall of the groove to provide a sealed region. A pressurized fluid is delivered into the sealed region to provide an axially disposed biasing force acting against the orbiting scroll.
