摘要:
A compressor including a housing, a rotary shaft extending through the housing, and a sealing device arranged about the rotary shaft to seal the housing. A shaft bore extends through the housing for insertion of the rotary shaft. An elastomer lip ring seals the housing in cooperation with the rotary shaft, while contacting the peripheral surface of the rotary shaft in a slidable manner. A pressure resistant reinforcement arranged in the shaft includes a backup ring, which is arranged between the elastomer lip ring and the rotary shaft, and a stopper, which is fixed in the shaft bore. The backup ring contacts the elastomer lip ring. The stopper restricts movement of the backup ring in the axial direction relative to the rotary shaft and enables movement of the backup ring in a radial direction relative to the rotary shaft.

A swash plate compressor that prevents a slide plate from being separated from a swash plate. The compressor includes a drive shaft. A slide plate is rotatable relative to the swash plate. Two shoes is arranged on the swash plate and the slide plate. A bearing arranged between the swash plate and the slide plate and in between the shoes. A piston is connected to the swash plate and the slide plate by the shoes and is reciprocated to compress gas. The swash plate includes a swash plate support surface, and the slide plate includes a slide plate support surface, in which each surface is for contacting the bearing. The swash plate is formed so that a clearance between the swash plate support surface and the slide plate support surface increases radially inwardly of the swash plate and the slide plate.

A heat-insulating mechanism in a compressor which introduces refrigerant gas from a suction pressure region to a compression chamber and discharges the refrigerant gas from the compression chamber to a discharge pressure region has a circular passage, a communication passage, a cylindrical member and a passage heat-insulating member. The circular passage, which is a portion of the suction pressure region, has a circular cross-section, and is in communication with an external refrigerant circuit. The communication passage, which is a portion of the suction pressure region, intersects the circular passage for connection therewith, and is communicable with the compression chamber. The cylindrical member is fitted into the circular passage. The passage heat-insulating member made of an insulating material covers at least a portion of a passage wall surface which forms the communication passage. Rotation of the cylindrical member is prevented by engaging the passage heat-insulating member with the cylindrical member.

A swash plate type variable displacement compressor includes a cylinder block defining a cylinder bore. A housing is fixed to the cylinder block and defines a crank chamber. A drive shaft is rotatably supported by the housing and the cylinder block. A swash plate is supported by the drive shaft in the crank chamber and is inclinable with respect to the axis of the drive shaft. A piston is accommodated in the cylinder bore so as to define a compression chamber in the cylinder bore and is coupled to the swash plate. A control mechanism includes a bleed passage for controlling the pressure in the crank chamber. The compressor is formed such that lubricating oil in the crank chamber is discharged into at least one of the suction chamber, the discharge chamber and the compression chamber while the inclination angle of the swash plate is substantially a maximum inclination angle.

A variable displacement compressor includes a supply passage for supplying refrigerant gas from a discharge chamber to a crank chamber and a bleed passage for bleeding the refrigerant gas from the crank chamber to a suction chamber. An oil separator is connected to a drive shaft and is located in the bleed passage. The oil separator rotates together with the drive shaft to centrifugally separate lubricant oil from the refrigerant gas that flows in the bleed passage. An oil chamber is formed in a compressor housing for receiving the separated oil. The pressure in the oil chamber is equal to or greater than the pressure in the crank chamber. The lubricant oil rapidly returns to the crank chamber through a return passage.

A variable displacement compressor compresses gas supplied from an evaporator of an external refrigerant circuit and discharges the compressed gas to the refrigerant circuit. A check valve is located between the compressor suction chamber and the evaporator. The check valve prevents gas flow from the suction chamber to the evaporator. When the compressor is stopped, a displacement control valve increases the pressure in a crank chamber of the compressor to move a swash plate to a minimum inclination position. The pressure in the suction chamber is increased by gas supplied from the crank chamber. Closing the check valve accelerates a pressure increase in the suction chamber. When the pressure in the suction chamber is increased, the control valve limits a further pressure increase in the crank chamber. As a result, the force that decreases the inclination of the swash plate is limited.

A housing includes a crank chamber and cylinder bores. Pistons are accommodated in the cylinder bores. A drive shaft is supported by the housing to pass through the crank chamber. A lug plate is fixed to the drive shaft. The pistons are coupled to the lug plate, which converts rotation of the drive shaft into reciprocation of the pistons and compresses gas in the cylinder bores. A thrust bearing is located between the housing and the lug plate and transmits a thrust load applied to the lug plate. The thrust bearing includes a front race located next to the housing, a rear race located next to the lug plate, and rollers located between the front and rear races. A front seat for supporting the front race is formed on the housing. A rear seat for supporting the rear race is formed on the lug plate. The diameters of the front and rear seats are different, which causes elastic deformation of the races when a thrust load is applied.

A variable displacement type swash plate compressor that prevents a drive shaft from moving axially when the difference between a crank chamber pressure and a cylinder bore pressure becomes excessive. A hinge mechanism has a support arm extending from a lug plate and a guide pin extends from a swash plate. The head portion of the guide pin fits in a guide hole formed in the support arm. A cutaway surface is formed in a part of the support arm that defines the guide hole. The cutaway surface forms a clearance in the hinge. The clearance permits the swash plate to move without pulling the drive shaft.

A movable scroll element for a scroll type compressor is produced by a combination of a mold casting process and a machining process. The mold casting process produces a cast product having an end-plate forming portion, a spiral-member-forming portion and a projecting portion for forming a drive power receiving portion. The cast product has an entire outer faces covered with black scale, and the machining process machines the end-plate-forming portion, a spiral member forming portion, the projecting portion by cutting. Nevertheless, at least an outer circumference of the drive power receiving portion, i.e., a boss portion of the movable scroll element is covered with an outermost layer consisting of black scale. Thus, a sufficient mechanical strength of the movable scroll element is obtained even if the wall thickness of the drive power receiving portion, i.e., the boss portion of the movable scroll element, is reduced.
摘要:
A scroll compressor for compressing a gaseous refrigerant including a lubricant in a mist state, having a stationary scroll member and a movable scroll member, which define pump chambers at an outer wall side of the movable scroll member and an inner wall side of the movable scroll member, which chambers are initially opened to an inlet port via a main intake passageway for introducing a gaseous refrigerant into the chambers when they are radially outwardly located. A sub-intake passageway, in which a shaft seal unit is provided, is diverted from the main intake passageway and is opened to the outer wall sided chamber before the chamber is sealingly closed so that a flow of gas, from the inlet port, is introduced into the chamber, the gas is positively fed to the shaft seal unit, and the shaft seal unit is lubricated.
