A rotary expander includes: a cylinder (61); a piston (62) disposed inside the cylinder (61); closing members disposed with the cylinder (61) being sandwiched therebetween; and an injection passage for introducing further a working fluid in the expansion process of the working fluid. An introduction outlet (65c) of the injection passage leading to the working chamber (69) is provided at a position located inwardly away from the inner circumferential surface (61b) of the cylinder (61), on one of the closing members, in such a manner that the injection passage and the discharge passage are not communicated with each other.

A refrigeration cycle apparatus 100 includes a low-pressure compressor 113, a high-pressure compressor 101, a radiator 103, a gas-liquid separator 107, an expansion valve 109, an expander 105 and an evaporator 111. The low-pressure compressor 113 and the expander 105 are coupled by a shaft 116, and the low-pressure compressor 113 is driven using power recovered by the expander 105 from a refrigerant. The low-pressure compressor 113 and the high-pressure compressor 101 are serially connected by an intermediate-pressure flow path 114. The gas-liquid separator 107 and the intermediate-pressure flow path 114 are connected by the reciprocating flow path 115. The reciprocating flow path 115 is configured to allow the refrigerant to circulate bidirectionally. It is possible to regulate the refrigerant flow rate in the reciprocating flow path 115 by controlling the opening degree of the expansion valve 109.

A refrigeration cycle apparatus (100A) includes a first compressor (101) that is an expander-compressor unit, a second compressor (102), and a controller (300). The controller (300) shifts, when an oil level 51 of a first oil pool (13) becomes equal to or lower than a specified level L, to an oil-equalizing operation in which a rotation speed of a first motor (12) is decreased only by a specified decrement and a rotation speed of a second motor (12) is increased by a specified increment, and an opening of a bypass valve (70) is increased so that a pressure or a temperature of a discharged refrigerant guided to a radiator (4) through a first pipe (3a) is kept approximately constant, and returns the rotation speeds of the first motor (11) and the second motor (12) as well as the opening of the bypass valve (70) to conditions before start of the oil-equalizing operation when a specified period of time has elapsed since the start of the oil-equalizing operation.

An expander-integrated compressor 200A includes a closed casing 1, a compression mechanism 2, an expansion mechanism 3, a shaft 5, an oil pump 6, and a heat insulating structure 30A. The oil pump 6 is disposed between the compression mechanism 1 and the expansion mechanism 3, and draws, via an oil suction port 62q, an oil held in an oil reservoir 25 to supply it to the compression mechanism 2. The heat insulating structure 30A is disposed between the oil pump 6 and the expansion mechanism 3, and limits a flow of the oil between an upper tank 25a, in which the oil suction port 62q is located, and a lower tank 25b, in which the expansion mechanism 3 is located, so as to suppress heat transfer from the oil filling the upper tank 25a to the oil filling the lower tank 25b.

The expander-compressor unit 70 includes the closed casing 1, the expansion mechanism 4 disposed in the closed casing 1 so that a surrounding space thereof is filled with the oil, the compression mechanism 2 disposed in the closed casing 1 so as to be positioned higher than the oil level, the shaft 5 for coupling the compression mechanism and the expansion mechanism 4 to each other, and the oil flow suppressing member 50 disposed in the surrounding space of the expansion mechanism 4 so that the space 55a filled with the oil is formed between the expansion mechanism 4 and the oil flow suppressing member 50. Thereby the flow of the oil filling the inner reserving space 55a is suppressed, and thus, heat transfer from the high temperature oil to the low temperature expansion mechanism can be reduced.
摘要:
An expander-integrated compressor (5A) has a compression mechanism (21) for compressing a refrigerant and an expansion mechanism (22) for expanding the refrigerant. The compression mechanism (21) is located above the expansion mechanism (22) inside a closed casing (10) and shares a rotating shaft (36) with the expansion mechanism (22). An oil pump (37) is provided at the lower end of the rotating shaft (36). The oil pump (37) is immersed in oil in an oil reservoir (15). Usually, the oil is placed in the oil reservoir (15) in such a manner that the oil level (OL) is located above a lower end portion (34e) of a vane (34a) of a first expansion section (30a). More preferably, the oil is placed in such a manner that the expansion mechanism (22) is immersed in the oil. An oil supply passage (38) for guiding the oil to the compression mechanism (21) is formed inside the rotating shaft (36). A suction port (37a) of the oil pump (37) is provided below the lower end portion (34e) of the vane (34a).
摘要:
A multi-stage rotary-type fluid machine may be configured as what is called a two-stage rotary expander, in which a refrigerant expands in an expansion chamber having a first discharge side space (115b) of a first cylinder (105), a second suction side space (116a) of a second cylinder (106), and a communication hole (104a) for allowing communication between the two spaces (115b, 116a). The first cylinder (105) and the second cylinder (106) are partitioned by an intermediate plate (104). The communication hole (104a) is formed so as to penetrate through the intermediate plate (104). The opening shape and location of the communication hole (104a) are set so that direct blow-through of the refrigerant from a suction port (105b) to a discharge port (106b) cannot occur at any rotation angle of a shaft (103).
