摘要:
A wrist pin and wrist pin retainer are combined in a subassembly which prevents inadvertent removal of the retainer from the assembly. The subassembly is placed in a bore defined by a piston and a connecting rod with at least one annular groove formed in the bore. When the subassembly is located in the bore, the retainer coacts with the annular groove to secure the wrist pin in the bore.

In addition to seating on its valve seat during the combined compression and discharge stroke, the suction valve seats on the structure associated with the valve seat which has at least one shallow recessed area. In seating on its valve seat, the suction valve seats on the structure defining the shallow recesses to trap fluid therein. The recesses serve to reduce the area available for adhesion and the trapped fluid pressure provides an opening bias to the suction valve. If necessary, or desired, restricted communication between the compression chamber and the shallow recess can take place to provide a higher pressure in the recess at the time of transition from discharge to suction.

In a compressor having an oil sump located therein, a restricted communication is provided between the oil sump and the suction plenum. As a result, froth generation due to a rapid pressure drop in the oil sump is reduced. A relief valve is provided to limit the pressure differential between the suction plenum and the oil sump.

The seat of a suction valve of a reciprocating compressor is modified to limit the area in which an annular oil film can be established between the valve and the valve seat. The seat is configured to limit the oil film from 3% to 33% of the total inlet port opening. In a modified embodiment gas at discharge pressure exerts an opening bias to the suction valve at the end of the discharge stroke.
摘要:
The seat of a suction valve of a reciprocating compressor is modified to limit the radial extent and thereby the area in which an annular oil film can be established between the valve and the valve seat. The preferred radial extent of the seating surface is 0.014 to 0.018 inches and the preferred ratio of the area of the suction valve seat to the passage therethrough is in the range of 13% to 25%.

A compressor having plural banks of cylinders can be operated multi-stage, single stage, plural parallel single stages and, when multi-stage, with or without an economizer. One of the low stage banks of cylinders can be unloaded to reduce the first stage output during multi-stage operation or to permit operation of a single stage when the second stage is bypassed.
摘要:
In a compressor where an oil pump is driven by a crankshaft through a drive tang with oil passing through the drive tang. The bolts holding the drive tang in place tend to agitate the oil and create foam. To prevent foam from being drawn into the oil pump, the agitation is isolated by a sub-chamber defined in part by a spring retainer while oil is supplied via a tube extending through the sub-chamber.
摘要:
A method of operating a refrigeration system having at least three compressors, in which each compressor has an oil sump with oil at an oil level. The method includes separately connecting the oil sumps of the at least three compressors. Each separate connection allows oil flow only between the oil sumps of two of said compressors thereby preventing bypass flow. The method further includes flowing oil between oil sumps of the at least three compressors and along the separate connections to tend to equalize the oil levels among the oil sumps of the at least three compressors.

A compressor (20) has a housing (22) having first (52) and second (48) members. A motor (24) within the housing (22) is coupled to one or more working elements (26, 28) to drive the one or more working elements (26, 28) to compress a fluid. A number of electrical terminals (104) are each mounted in an associated aperture (132) in the second housing member (48) and electrically connected to the motor (24).

A screw compressor (10) comprises a housing (12, 14, 16), a slide valve assembly (23) and a pulsation damper. The housing (12, 14, 16) receives a supply of working matter from a pair of intermeshing screw rotors (18, 20), and comprises a slide recess (51), a pressure pocket (32), and a piston cylinder (54). The slide valve assembly (23) regulates the capacity of the screw compressor (10), and comprises a slide valve (36) axially movable within the slide recess (51) and the pressure pocket (32), a piston head (40) axially movable within the piston cylinder (54), and a piston shaft (38) connecting the slide valve (36) with the piston head (40). The pulsation damper comprises a flange (58) for separating the pressure pocket (32) from the piston cylinder (54), a bore (60) for receiving the piston rod (38), and a damping channel (46A) extending through the flange (58).
