Definitions

  • This invention relates to gas compressors and relates more especially to air compressors fitted with unloader valves which when signalled operate to connect a compression chamber to atmosphere.
  • a gas compressor comprising a reciprocating member forming a movable wall of a compression chamber for cyclicly increasing and decreasing the volume thereof to induce and deliver compressed gas to a delivery port, an unloader valve having a biassed valve member acting in a sense to close a vent passage communicating with said chamber said unloader valve being operable by a fluid pressure signal acting on a pressure responsive area in a sense to counteract the bias and characterised by a further area subject to the pressure in said chamber acting in a sense to enhance the bias.
  • said further pressure area is at least as large as the area presented to the pressure in said chamber by the valve member in the closed position thereof.
  • FIG. 1 this illustrates the upper part of a single cylinder piston-type air compressor, with the crankcase and crankshaft assembly now shown.
  • the crankshaft is conmmunicated via a connecting rod, the upper end of which is indicated by reference 1, pivotally connected to a piston 2 via a gudgeon pin 3.
  • the piston 2 is thereby reciprocable in a bore 4 of a cylinder 5 alternatively to increase and decrease the volume of a compression chamber6 of which the piston 2 forms one wall.
  • the compressor is also conveniently provided with a valve plate 7 carrying a delivery reed valve 8 and an inlet reed valve 9.
  • the delivery reed valve 8 provides one way communication from the compression chamber 6 through the valve plate to a delivery port 10 of a cylinder head 11 and the inlet valve 9 provides one way communication between a induction or inlet chamber 12 through a passage 13 in the valve plate.
  • the cylinder head and valve plate are assembled to the cylinder by conventional bolts denoted by ref. 14.
  • the cylinder head is further provided with an unloader valve illustrated on a larger scale in Fig. 2 and comprising a valve member 15 sealingly slideable in a bore 16 to open and close a passage 17 between the compression chamber 6 and the inlet chamber 12.
  • This valve member has an annular pressure responsive area 23 wubject to control pressure at a control port 27 acting in a sense to overcome the bias of a spring 18 when a desired reservoir pressure is attained. Additionally, the pressure responsive member is provided with an internal passage-way 19 which communicates with a further area 20 located to act in a sense to enhance the bias of spring 18 in the presence of pressure in the chamber 6.
  • the whole assembly of the unloader valve is held together by a vented closure member 21 located in the cylinder head by an internal circlip 22.
  • the closure member 21 being provided with a spigot 25 having an annular seal 23 upon which the valve member is sealingly slideable.
  • the unloader valve tends to close during induction strokes but to partially open on compression strokes, such opening being caused by recovering reservoir pressure enhanced by compression chamber pressure acting on the valve closure area of 17.
  • the result of this partial opening can be substantial energy dissipation and over heating.
  • the additional area 20 is at least as large as the area of the valve member covering the vent passage 17 which is subject to compression chamber pressure in the closed position thereof.
