Abstract

ABSTRACT

In a refrigerator comprising a capsule having a motor compressor, a suction connector (4) passing through the capsule wall (1) terminates at a spacing from the inlet orifice (6) of a suction conduit (7). To form a single liquid separator apparatus, the inlet orifice (6) is surrounded by an annular flange (9).

Description

~efrigerator comprisin~ a capaule ha~ing a motcr compressor Tha Ln~ention relates to a refrigexator comprising a capsulo having a motor compresaor, wherein a suction oonneotor passing through th~ oapsule wall teDmlnates at a spacing from the inlet orifice of a suction conauit and a liquid separator apparatus is provided.
In a known refrigerator of this ~ind (G~-PS 20 66 374), the suction connector which is led horizontally through the capsule wall terminates in the plane of thiR wall. A tube comprises a horizontal section coaxial with the suction connsctor, an aIc and a vertlcal section. me inlet or~fice is flared and extends somewhat beyond the vertical ~:ound~proofing wall. The other end of the tube passes through the lower horizont~l sound-proorin~ wall. me horizontal Eection has an oririce at the top con~tituting a direct connection to the sound-proofin~ chamber. In this const~uctlonl gaseou~ refrigerant supplled by uay of the suction connector is fed through tkeinlet orifice, the ftr~t portion of the horizontal tube ~ection and the ori~ice in thc tube wall into the ~uotion chamber, wherea~ droplets of liquid oarrled along into the inlet orifice, i.a. oil or liquid refrigerant, rema$n in the curved tube by reason of their in~tia, impinga on the w~ll of the arc and then clrip into the oil sump through the Yertioal seotion.
Thi~ const~ction has the advantage that a large part of the gaseou~ refrigerant supplied through the suction connector reaches the cuction s3und~proofer directly Bnd i~ therefore supplied to tho rsfri~erant co~p~3ssor at a comparatively low temperature ~hlch9 by ., .., ~

- 2 -rea~on of the i~pro~ed degra2 of filli~g o~ the co~pr0ssor~ improves tha efficlenc~O ~owevex, ln~tallin3 th~ Gurved tube to achleve separation of the llquid oall~ for additional e~pense. I~ addition, th~ EucXed-in gas i8 practlcally entirely ~eparated from the liquid~
Ihe inventlon 18 based on the problem of pro~idin~ a harmetl cally encapsulated refr~gerator ~n which the ~eparatio~ of the liquid can be achiaved by cheaper expedients.
~ hi~ problem is sol~ed according to the invention in that, to ~orm a single llquid separator apparatus9 the inlet oxifioe is alrrounded b~- an annular flang~, ~ hi~ constxuction results in a very simply con~tructed ~eparator appara~us~ Surpris~ngly, a laræe part of thc llquia dropleta carried along by the suction gas i9 separated at the annular flange from which the liquid can drip into the sump. Ihi~ seems to occur because the asnular flange considerably influences the flow of refri~erant ~a~
enteriIIæ the inlet orifice from the suction con~eotor, for e~cample by the formatlon of ~wirli~g ef~eets. The liquid particles diverted from the parallel path imping~ on the a2mular flan~ekr rea~on of their inertia. However, a r~sidue of llquid droplats iB carTi~d lnto the suotion conduit. Ihl8 i~ an advantage becausa a little oil i~ now availa~le for lubricating the oylinder of the ref~igerant compre~aor.
iB oil reaches cylinder portions whlch are usually in~u~ici~ntly suppliea with forced lubrioation. If liquld r~fri~erarlt ~s carried along with tha ga~ thls 18 ha:~nla~ because the sm~ll quantity ev~porates before it ent~rD tha oompre sor and even brlng~ about ~rth~r cooling of the ~uction ga~ and thu~ an improved d2gr~a of ~llllng.

The correct proportion of ~eparated and c~rriedralong liquid ~n ba determ~ned for a parti~ular ¢a~e by selectln~ t~diameter of th~ inlet orif~ce, the dlameter o~ the a~nular flange and the spa¢ing batween the inlet orifica and thesuctlon ¢onnQctor1 To enable as high a peroenta~e of the ~iqu~d to be separated a~ possible~ the diameter of the inlet orifice ~hould be no ~o~e than cqual to the diameter of the ~uotion conne~tor.
~ est xe~lts are obtained if the diameter of the flange aubstantiall~ corre~ponds to two to four t~mes the diameter of ~he ~nlet orifi¢e.
~ ur~her, provision ~hould be made for the spacing to be 198 than twLce the diameter of the inlet orifice.
It i8 particularl~ advanta~ous if the ena sectio~ of the auction oonne~tor and the starting 8eCtion of the ~u¢tion Gonduit extend ~ertically and the inlet ori~ice is d~sposed above this end section.
