At present, piston pin lubrication is poor in the operation process of a piston compressor, more lubrication enters a cylinder in the reciprocating motion process of a piston, so that the exhaust oil quantity of the compressor is large, and the problems of large vibration and noise caused by unbalanced piston pin reciprocating motion inertia force are solved. The invention aims at the problems and improves the piston pin. The lubricating oil thrown out when the crankshaft is operating falls into the upper end surface (first end surface) of the piston pin in a parabolic trajectory. According to the invention, the annular first oil groove is arranged on the piston pin, so that lubricating oil thrown into the first end surface of the piston pin by the crankshaft is accumulated, the lubricating oil flows into the second end surface of the piston pin from the second oil groove under the action of self gravity and flows into the oil drainage hole on the lower surface of the cylinder hole of the compressor from the second end surface to be discharged, and the problems that excessive lubricating oil is accumulated in the cylinder hole too much, so that excessive lubricating oil enters a refrigerator system and the heat transfer efficiency is reduced are solved.

To further illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, the following specific examples are provided as shown in fig. 1 to 6.

Example 1

In the present embodiment, a piston pin on a piston compressor is provided, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, a first end surface a of the piston pin 10 is provided with a first protrusion 11 and a second protrusion 12, the second protrusion 12 surrounds the outer periphery of the first protrusion 11 and forms an annular first oil groove 13 with the first protrusion 11, an outer circumferential surface of the piston pin 10 is provided with a second oil groove 14, the second oil groove 14 penetrates through the first end surface a and a second end surface b of the piston pin 10, and the first oil groove 13 is communicated with the second oil groove 14;

the second oil groove 14 is used for guiding out the lubricating oil accumulated in the first oil groove 13 from the second end face b when the piston compressor is operated.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the first oil groove 13 is a circular groove.

In the operation process of the compressor, the lubricating oil thrown into the cylinder by the crankshaft is accumulated at the position of the first end surface a, the lubricating oil flows into the oil passing channel from the first oil groove 13 under the action of self gravity and flows out of the oil passing channel to enter the oil drainage hole at the bottom of the cylinder for discharging, so that excessive lubricating oil in the cylinder is prevented from entering a refrigerator system to participate in heat exchange, and the heat exchange efficiency is prevented from being influenced; meanwhile, during the reciprocating motion of the piston 30, the lubricating oil can also improve the lubricating property during the flowing process of the second oil groove 14, and the temperature of the friction pair can be reduced by absorbing heat by the lubricating oil.

In order to further increase the oil discharge speed of the lubricating oil in the cylinder bore, the first protrusion 11 is provided with a hollow cavity 16 penetrating through the second end surface b, the hollow cavity 16 and the outer circumferential surface of the piston pin 10 are coaxially arranged, and the hollow cavity 16 is penetrated through the first oil groove 13.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the second protrusion 12 is provided with a notch 18 penetrating the second oil groove 14, and a bottom surface of the notch 18 may be flush with a bottom surface of the first oil groove 13, so that all of the lubricating oil in the first oil groove 13 can be discharged.

Alternatively, the annular oil groove 17 is located at a position intermediate to the outer circumferential surface of the piston pin 10.
