Abstract
A scroll compressor includes a non-orbiting scroll having a plurality of radially extending ribs on its rear face. The non-orbiting scroll preferably provides a separating function separating the interior of the sealed housing of the compressor into the discharge and suction pressure chambers. The ribs extend from a central portion of the base of the non-orbiting scroll to its outer peripheral surface. A circumferentially extending rib also connects the plural radially extending ribs.
Description
- This invention relates to a scroll compressor having a non-orbiting scroll with load bearing ribs.
- Modem refrigerant compressors are often mounted within a sealed container. In these compressors, the pump unit for compressing the refrigerant is positioned at one end, and a motor for driving the pump unit is positioned at another end. Often the suction pressure refrigerant is allowed to circulate over the motor, cooling the motor. In such compressors, it becomes necessary to separate a suction pressure chamber from a discharge pressure chamber.
- One popular type of modem compressor is a scroll compressor. A scroll compressor includes a pair of scroll members each having a base and a generally spiral wrap extending from the base. The wraps of the two scroll members interfit to define compression chambers. One of the scroll members is driven to orbit relative to the other, and during this orbital movement, the compression chambers decrease in volume.
- In traditional scroll compressors, the non-orbiting scroll does not seal against the compressor housing. Instead, a separate separator plate is positioned typically outwardly of the base of the non-orbiting scroll to separate the housing into the suction and discharge pressure chambers. Most typically, a discharge pressure chamber is formed above the separator plate, and the area below the separator plate is at suction pressure.
- More recently, it has been proposed to incorporate the separator function into the base of the non-orbiting scroll. In such compressors, the base of the non-orbiting scroll is sealed to the housing. Thus, there is the discharge pressure chamber on one side of the base of the non-orbiting scroll and the suction pressure chamber on the other.
- In such compressors, compressed refrigerant often reaches relatively high pressures. With the above discussed recent scroll compressor improvements, this high pressure may cause the scroll base to deform toward the suction side of the compressor. This deformation is undesirable.
- One proposed design employs ribs extending radially from the center of scroll base across a limited portion of the base. This design may not offer sufficient support to the base. Moreover, the design only offers support along a radial path from the base's center.
- A need therefore exists for a scroll base having greater support against deflection and deformation.
- In a disclosed embodiment of this invention, a scroll compressor has an orbiting scroll member and a non-orbiting scroll member. The non-orbiting scroll is utilized to separate a housing containing both scroll members into suction and discharge pressure chambers. Preferably, the non-orbiting scroll has an outer peripheral surface sealed to a inner peripheral surface of the housing defining the suction and discharge pressure chambers. Other ways of sealing the non-orbiting scroll to the housing may be used. To limit deflection of the non-orbiting scroll, ribs are formed on the outer face of the base of the scroll member. The ribs preferably offer support along a radial and non-radial path from the center and may extend across the entire scroll member.
- The ribs preferably extend from a center portion of the non-orbiting scroll member to the periphery of the member. The extension of ribs to the periphery permits the distribution of load caused by the pressure differential between the discharge pressure chamber and the suction pressure chamber across the entire member. In addition, a rib is preferably formed along the periphery to provide further support. This peripheral rib intersects the ribs extending from the center portion. The radially extending ribs meet in the center portion and connect to a boss of the non-orbiting scroll member. The non-orbiting scroll member typically has a circular outer peripheral shape.
- The ribs preferably form a radial design extending from the center portion of the base. In addition, the invention envisions the use of ribs so as to distribute loads not only radially but in a non-radial fashion across the non-orbiting scroll member. Alternate rib embodiments crisscross and intersect each other to distribute load across other portions of the non-orbiting scroll member. Some rib embodiments intersect at perpendicular angles.
- The present invention accordingly permits the non-orbiting member to be supported by ribbing and avoid deflections and deformities caused by their absence, thereby providing greater support to the non-orbiting member.
- The various features and advantages of this invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the following detailed description of the currently preferred embodiment. The drawings that accompany the detailed description can be briefly described as follows:
- FIG. 1A illustrates a cross sectional view of the invention, including a scroll member with ribs.
- FIG. 1B shows a prior art scroll member.
- FIG. 2 illustrates the FIG. 1A non-orbiting scroll member.
- FIG. 3 illustrates another embodiment non-orbiting scroll member
- FIG. 4 shows another non-orbiting scroll member with radial ribs.
- FIG. 5 illustrates another non-orbiting scroll member with non-radial and radial ribs.
- FIG. 6 illustrates a non-orbiting scroll member with ribs, a waffle pattern rib design.
- A
scroll compressor 20 is illustrated in FIG. 1A. As known,scroll compressor 20 incorporates an orbitingscroll 22 and anon-orbiting scroll 24. Acenter shell 26 is secured to anupper shell 28. Adischarge pressure chamber 32 is defined withinupper shell 28, discharging refrigerant throughtube 30. Non-orbitingscroll 24 hasabase 100 and aspiral wrap 102 extending from the base. The orbitingscroll 22 similarly has abase 104 and aspiral wrap 106. Compression chambers 108 are defined between the two wraps. - In the
non-orbiting scroll 24, the base is sealed toperiphery 35 of theupper shell 28. The base itself can form a seal, or a separate seal element can be used. Ashaft 36 is driven bymotor 137 to drive the orbitingscroll 22. Asuction tube 38 extends through thecenter shell 26 to supply refrigerant tochamber 40. As can be seen,suction tube 38 is positioned on a side of orbitingscroll 22 remote fromnon-orbiting scroll 24. The sealing joint between the base ofnon-orbiting scroll 24 and theupper shell 28 divides the interior of the housing into thedischarge pressure chamber 32 and thesuction pressure chamber 40. -
Boss 42 on base receives acheck valve assembly 44, shown schematically. Refrigerant is compressed between the orbiting andnon-orbiting scrolls check valve 44 intochamber 32. Refrigerant indischarge pressure chamber 32 is at high pressure whilesuction pressure chamber 40 is at low pressure. The difference in pressure may cause non-orbiting scroll to deflect or deform towardsuction pressure chamber 40. High temperature of the non-orbiting scroll may also cause deformation. - FIG. 1B illustrates a prior art design. Shown is
non-orbiting scroll member 10 withribs 12 extending fromcenter 14 along a radial direction. As shown in this figure,ribs 12 extend only across a limited portion ofnon-orbiting scroll member 10. Thus,scroll member 10 is supported only across this portion along a radial path fromcenter 14. - To increase support, the inventive
non-orbiting scroll member 24 is reinforced byseveral ribs 50, extending fromboss 42 to aboutperiphery 37.Periphery 37 meetswall 33 ofupper shell 28 as shown. In this way,ribs 50 provide support against deflection fromboss 42 toperiphery 37 across the great majority ofmember 24. Eachrib 50 hasfirst portion 52 extending aboveland 62 ofbase 100 andsecond portion 54 extending aboveland 64 ofbase 100, reinforcing both areas to prevent deflection ofbase 100. As shown,land 64 is elevated relative to land 62 essentially by a circumferentially extending portion, orrib 180. - FIG. 2 illustrates the non-orbiting scroll employing the inventive features of this invention.
Boss 42 is located in a center portion ofnon-orbiting scroll 24.Boss 42 haspassage 74 to permit the communication of refrigerant between the compression chamber and the discharge pressure chamber.Non-orbiting scroll 24 comprisesbase 100, which itself comprisesland 62,land 64 andcentral portion 82.Land 62 encirclesland 64, which encirclesboss 42. Moreover, as shown in this figure,land 64 is elevated aboveland 62 and sharescircumferential rib 180, which provides the elevated position ofland 64 with respect to land 62.Boss 42 may be elevated above bothland 62 andland 64. Supportingbase 100 further areradial ribs 50, which may extend fromcenter point 88 to aboutperiphery 37.Periphery 37 is positioned inwardly ofouter periphery 94.Periphery 37 is elevated aboveouter periphery 94 to form acircumferential lip 34 which may abutupper shell 28 as shown in FIG. 1. - FIG. 3 illustrates another
non-orbiting scroll 110 havingbase 112,boss 114 andribs 116 radiating fromboss 114. This particular design also employsrib 118 extending circumferentially aroundperiphery 120 ofbase 112.Rib 118 may provide additional support to base 112 and intersectradial ribs 116. Moreover,rib 118 may form part of the sealing surface for an upper shell of a sealed housing. - FIGS. 4, 5 and6 illustrate other rib patterns. FIG. 4 shows
non-orbiting scroll 126 withbase 130 andboss 134.Base 130 is reinforced by ribs, such asrib 138, extending radially fromboss 134 toinner periphery 142.Inner periphery 142 is withinouter periphery 144. - In addition,
base 130 may be reinforced by non-radial ribs such asrib 156, which extends along a path that does crosscenter 150.Rib 156 may extend transversely fromrib 138, a radial rib.Rib 158 is also provided, extending circumferentially aboutinner periphery 142 and may intersectrib 138 andrib 156. In this way, the invention provides support radially and non-radially acrossbase 130, distributing load over, through and aroundcenter 150. - FIG. 5 illustrates another
non-orbiting scroll 159 havingcenter point 160 andribs center point 160. Here,rib 164 is formed that is transverse toribs center point 160. - FIG. 6 illustrates a waffle pattern design, highlighting again the non-radial rib feature of the invention.
Rib 176 extends acrossbase 174 ofnon-orbiting scroll 178 along a path that does not extend throughcenter 170. Anothernon-radial rib 173 may intersectrib 176 perpendicularly at point A. One of ordinary skill in the art can envision other ways to employ both radial and non-radial ribs to support a non-orbiting scroll to avoid deformation and its deflection. - The aforementioned description is exemplary rather that limiting. Many modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in light of the above teachings. The preferred embodiments of this invention have been disclosed. However, one of ordinary skill in the art would recognize that certain modifications would come within the scope of this invention. Hence, within the scope of the appended claims, the invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described. For this reason the following claims should be studied to determine the true scope and content of this invention.
