摘要： A fuel cell system includes a fuel cell, a motor, a scroll type compressor, connected to the air feeding pipe of the fuel cell and a scroll type regenerator connected to the air exhaust pipe of the fuel cell. The movable scrolls of the compressor and the regenerator are coupled to opposite ends of the motor output shaft in symmetry with each other. A pressure ratio of the regenerator is selected to be smaller than that of the compressor by an amount corresponding to a pressure loss of the exhaust gas across the fuel cell, so that the rotation of the regenerator never transmits a negative torque to the motor output shaft MC. Therefore, the regenerator can efficiently provide power assistance to the compressor.

摘要： This invention relates to a fuel cell apparatus in which a discharge gas having a pressure energy even after an oxygen has been consumed at the fuel cell is expanded at an expander to collect the pressure energy in the discharge gas as a mechanical energy for assisting driving of a compressor. A clutch (20) is disposed between the electric motor (16) and the expander (15) for connecting/interrupting the expander with/from the electric motor, and a control means (21, 22) for controlling the clutch is provided. The control means detects a pressure in the gas discharge tube (13) between the fuel cell (10) and the expander (15), to interrupt the clutch as long as a detected pressure is lower than a predetermined value, and to connect the clutch when the detected pressure becomes higher than the predetermined value.

摘要： A rotation balancing mechanism of an orbiting scroll of a scroll-type compressor that reduces the outer diameter of the compressor housing. A compression mechanism includes a fixed scroll and an orbiting scroll. The compression mechanism is coupled to a support frame at the front of a drive motor. A drive crankshaft is located between the drive shaft of the motor and a base plate of the orbiting scroll. The drive crankshaft causes the orbiting scroll to orbit. Follower crankshafts are located between the support frame and the base plate. The follower crankshafts permit the orbiting scroll to orbit and prevent the orbiting scroll from rotating about its own axis. A central balance weight is located on the drive crankshaft. The central balance weight opposes part of the centrifugal force that is applied to the drive crankshaft when the orbiting scroll orbits. Outer balance weights are attached to the follower crankshafts to oppose the remainder of the centrifugal force.

摘要： An air conditioning system 100 may include a compressor 101 having a driving chamber 110, a cooling circuit 151, a heating circuit 152 and a controller 189. This system may release high pressure refrigerant from the compressor discharge port 120 into the compressor driving chamber 110 by means of the controller 189. The controller 189 may include a selector 181, a first refrigerant releasing means 183 and a second refrigerant releasing means 185. The selector 181 connects the discharge port 120 and the driving chamber 110 by both the first and second refrigerant releasing means 183, 185 when discharge pressure of the refrigerant has reached a predetermined high-pressure state during operation of the heating circuit 152. When the discharge pressure of the refrigerant results an abnormal high pressure state during the operation of the heating circuit 152, the high pressure refrigerant is released from the discharge port 120 into the driving chamber 110 not only by a single refrigerant releasing means 185 but by double refrigerant releasing means 183, 185. Therefore, the high pressure refrigerant can be swiftly released into the driving chamber 110 to increase the pressure in the driving chamber 110 and the necessary time for reducing the compressor discharge pressure can be minimized. Thus, the abnormal high discharge pressure can be quickly alleviated.

摘要： A control apparatus and method for controlling an automotive heater apparatus. The heater apparatus includes a coolant circuit for cooling an engine, a coolant circulating through the circuit, a heat generator for transferring heat to the coolant, and a heater core for transferring heat from the coolant. The heat generator houses a viscous fluid and a rotor selectively connected to and disconnected from the engine by a clutch. The clutch connects the engine with the rotor to shear the viscous fluid and generate heat. When the rotating speed of the rotor exceeds a rotor speed limit, which varies in accordance with the detected coolant temperature, the clutch disconnects the rotor of the heat generator from the engine and de-activates the heat generator.
