Definitions
- the present invention relates in general to air compressors and is particularly concerned with some improvements which are applied to a compressor in order to improve its operating characteristics, particularly as regards the cooling and lubricating functions, and also to simplify the assembly of the compressor and the periodic replacement of some parts (piston rings) which are subject to wear in use.
- a piston air compressor is intended to be used for producing compressed air in an industrial environment, or possibly for semi-professional amateur use.
- the compressor 1 is composed essentially of a casing defining within it two cylinders 2 in which two pistons 3 are sealingly mounted for reciprocal sliding.
- the pistons 3 are connected by means of connecting rods 4 to the journals of a crankshaft 5 having an end 6 which projects from the casing of the compressor.
- a pulley 7 is mounted on the end of the shaft and has two grooves situated remote from and near to the compressor 1 respectively.
- a belt 8 passes around the outer groove and enables the pulley 7 (and the shaft 5 as a whole) to be rotated by an electric operating motor (not illustrated). The function of the inner groove will be described further below.
- a plate 9 is provided in correspondence with the tops of the cylinders 2 and, also according to a widely known arrangement, two pairs of blade valves are mounted therein for regulating the passage of air to and from the cylinders 2 through two intake and delivery ducts 10, 11 in the head 12 of the casing.
- two intake valves 13 are provided which are mounted on the lower face of the plate 9 in corresponding recesses thereof and have the function of enabling the passage of air from the intake duct 10 to the cylinders 2 when the pistons 3 move - alternately - downwards as a result of the rotation of the shaft 5;
- two delivery valves 14 are provided on the upper face of the plate 9 for enabling the passage of air from the cylinders 2 to the delivery duct 11 when the pistons 3 move - alternately - upwards in a respective cylinders 2 as a result of the rotation of the shaft 5.
- the plate 9 on which the valves 13 and 14 are mounted (usually by means of driven rivets of a relatively ductile material such as copper) is constituted by a pressure-cast aluminium part traversed by three longitudinal apertures 16 which extend through the entire length of the plate 9 (in the direction of alignment of the cylinders 2).
- the apertures 16 are intended to convey a ventilating air flow in order to facilitate the cooling of the head part of the compressor.
- the ventilating air flow is generated by a fan 17 mounted on a shaft or pin 18 and rotated by the pulley 7 by means of a belt 19 which passes around the inner groove of the pulley 7.
- the fan 17 is mounted on the shaft 18 with the interposition of a bearing 20; more precisely, the shaft 18 is constituted by an S-shaped pin provided with an eccentric central portion 21 which is fixed to the casing of the compressor by the screwing of a threaded end portion 22 into a bush provided in the casing of the compressor 1.
- crankcase 25 is therefore closed in correspondence with its base wall and has a main opening which enables the insertion of the shaft 5 and its associated members during the assembly of the compressor and only opens upwards, that is, towards the overlying central part 24.
- the lower part 25 of the casing is provided with a plurality of bosses 26 which project like pillars in the lower part 25 itself (usually six are provided - that is, at the four vertical corners of the part 25, which is generally parallelepipedal in shape, and centrally of its two longer sides).
- the bosses or pillars 26 are provided with internal sets of threads (only one of which, indicated 27, is visible in Figure 1) for the insertion of respective screws 28 (two of which are shown schematically in Figure 1).
- the screws 28 extend from the head 12 through the valve plate 9 (which is purposely provided with corresponding through-holes 29, shown in Figure 2) and through the central part 24 of the casing so as to be engaged in the threads 27 provided in the bosses 26 in the lower part 25 of the casing.
- the front wall of the part 25, facing the pulley 7, also has a hole with a horizontal axis for the mounting of a bearing 30 for supporting the shaft 5, with which oil seal members 31 are associated.
- Another hole with a horizontal axis is provided in a corresponding position on the rear wall of the lower part 25 of the casing and a further bearing 32 is mounted therein, usually by driving, for supporting the rear end of the shaft 5.
- the hole in which the bearing 32 is mounted communicates with a lubricant (oil) drainage space or sump 33 provided at the top with a threaded hole 34 in which an oil drainage and collection plug 35 of the type described in European patent application EP-A-0 232 688 is mounted.
- a duct with a horizontal axis, indicated 36, extends through the upper part of the sump 33 and opens into the lower part 25 of the casing.
- the duct 36 enables the lubricant to be fed into the lower part 25 of the casing, which serves as a crankcase.
- the duct 36 is closed by the threaded shank of the plug 35 when the latter is screwed into hole 34.
- the lubricant fumes which are generated during the operation of the compressor are therefore discharged from the lower part 25 of the casing through the bearing 32 and the sump 33, until they reach the plug 35.
- the lubricant which collects in the plug 35 as a result of the trapping action of the latter can thus fall back into the compressor casing to ensure optimum lubrication of the bearing 32.
- two screw plugs 25a and 25b are inserted in corresponding threaded holes provided in the part 25 beneath the aperture into which the bearing 32 is driven.
- the plug 25a is of transparent material and thus enables the level reached by the lubricant inside the part 25 to be checked.
- the plug 25b is mounted close to the base wall of the part 25 and - when it is removed - enables all the lubricant to be drained out.
- Two lubricant drainage ducts extend from the cylinders 2 to two corresponding drainage apertures provided at the upper end of the plug 35.
- Each of the ducts 37 extends from an intake aperture 38 (only one of which is visible in Figure 1) provided in a respective annular groove 39 in the inner wall of the cylinder, centrally thereof.
- the grooves 39 are formed in positions determined in dependence on the geometrical characteristics of the pistons 3.
- Each of these is constituted essentially by two elements, that is to say, a lower portion 40 connected to the upper end of the corresponding connecting rod 4 by a pin 41, and an upper portion 42 which is fixed to the lower portion 40 by means of a screw 43.
- the screw 43 extends generally axially of the piston 3 and is kept in position by a locking screw 44.
- each piston 3 is tapered at the top so as to form a bevelled shoulder 45 which converges towards the top of the respective cylinder 2.
- the upper or head portion 42 is generally cylindrical in shape, with a lower axial appendage 46 which is coupled in the manner of a tenon to the narrower top part of the lower portion 40.
- Similar rings 48 are provided in the head portion 42.
- the piston structure illustrated enables operation with oil-film lubrication in correspondence with the lower portions of the pistons 2 and operation virtually without lubrication in correspondence with the head portions. This solution minimises the contamination of the compressed air by the lubricating oil.
- sealing rings 48 are mounted on a head portion 42 which can be separated from the rest of the piston considerably simplifies the periodic replacement of the rings 48 which are subject to wear during the use of the compressor.
- the head portions 42 can be put back in the cylinders and fixed to the respective lower portions 40 by means of the screws 43 and the screws 44; the compressor can then be closed again by the fitting of the valve plate 9 and the head 12.
- the rings 48 can thus be replaced without the need to remove the pistons completely from the cylinders, thus avoiding an operation which, in the majority of cases, would require the almost complete dismantling of the compressor 1.
- the grooves 39 which are intended to act as traps for the collection and recovery of the lubricating oil 37, to prevent excessive migration of the lubricant towards the top parts of the cylinders 2, are formed so as to open into the annular space between the head portion 42 and the bevelled shoulder 45 of the lower portion 40 of the piston.
- annular recesses 39 are formed so as to be slightly above the position reached by the lower end of the shoulder 45 when the piston 3 is in the top dead centre position.

Description
- The present invention relates in general to air compressors and is particularly concerned with some improvements which are applied to a compressor in order to improve its operating characteristics, particularly as regards the cooling and lubricating functions, and also to simplify the assembly of the compressor and the periodic replacement of some parts (piston rings) which are subject to wear in use.
- The characteristics which form the subject of the patent are indicated specifically in the claims which follow.
- The invention will now be described, by way of non-limiting example, with reference to the appended drawings, in which;
- Figure 1 is a median vertical section of a compressor according to the invention,
- Figure 2 is a perspective view of one of the elements illustrated in Figure 1, and
- Figure 3 is a view of the element illustrated in Figure 2, in the direction of the arrow III of Figure 2.
- In the drawings, a piston air compressor, generally indicated 1, is intended to be used for producing compressed air in an industrial environment, or possibly for semi-professional amateur use.
- The compressor 1 is composed essentially of a casing defining within it two
cylinders 2 in which twopistons 3 are sealingly mounted for reciprocal sliding. - According to a widely known arrangement, the
pistons 3 are connected by means of connectingrods 4 to the journals of a crankshaft 5 having an end 6 which projects from the casing of the compressor. - A pulley 7 is mounted on the end of the shaft and has two grooves situated remote from and near to the compressor 1 respectively. In use, a belt 8 passes around the outer groove and enables the pulley 7 (and the shaft 5 as a whole) to be rotated by an electric operating motor (not illustrated). The function of the inner groove will be described further below.
- A plate 9 is provided in correspondence with the tops of the
cylinders 2 and, also according to a widely known arrangement, two pairs of blade valves are mounted therein for regulating the passage of air to and from thecylinders 2 through two intake anddelivery ducts head 12 of the casing. - More precisely (see also Figure 2), two
intake valves 13 are provided which are mounted on the lower face of the plate 9 in corresponding recesses thereof and have the function of enabling the passage of air from theintake duct 10 to thecylinders 2 when thepistons 3 move - alternately - downwards as a result of the rotation of the shaft 5; twodelivery valves 14 are provided on the upper face of the plate 9 for enabling the passage of air from thecylinders 2 to thedelivery duct 11 when thepistons 3 move - alternately - upwards in arespective cylinders 2 as a result of the rotation of the shaft 5. - The passage of the air through the plate 9, controlled by the
valves cylinders 2 under the control of the valves 13). - The plate 9 on which the
valves longitudinal apertures 16 which extend through the entire length of the plate 9 (in the direction of alignment of the cylinders 2). - The
apertures 16 are intended to convey a ventilating air flow in order to facilitate the cooling of the head part of the compressor. - The ventilating air flow is generated by a
fan 17 mounted on a shaft or pin 18 and rotated by the pulley 7 by means of abelt 19 which passes around the inner groove of the pulley 7. - The
fan 17 is mounted on the shaft 18 with the interposition of abearing 20; more precisely, the shaft 18 is constituted by an S-shaped pin provided with an eccentriccentral portion 21 which is fixed to the casing of the compressor by the screwing of a threadedend portion 22 into a bush provided in the casing of the compressor 1. - The slackening of a
nut 23 which clamps the threadedportion 22 against the casing of the compressor 1, the pin or shaft 18 being kept in a fixed position, allows the eccentric 21 to be pivoted. This causes an orbital movement of the shaft 18 (and of thefan 17 mounted thereon) about the axis of the threadedportion 22, enabling thebelt 19 to be tensioned correctly. As well as passing through theapertures 16 which are aligned with thefan 17, the air flow generated by thefan 17 flows over the entire head part of the compressor casing. In addition to the valve plate 9 and thehead 12 already described above, the latter also includes acentral part 24 in which thecylinders 2 are defined and which is provided withhorizontal cooling vanes 24a, and a generally tank-shaped lower portion (crankcase) 25. - The
crankcase 25 is therefore closed in correspondence with its base wall and has a main opening which enables the insertion of the shaft 5 and its associated members during the assembly of the compressor and only opens upwards, that is, towards the overlyingcentral part 24. - According to a solution which has found to be particularly advantageous during the assembly of the compressor, the
lower part 25 of the casing is provided with a plurality ofbosses 26 which project like pillars in thelower part 25 itself (usually six are provided - that is, at the four vertical corners of thepart 25, which is generally parallelepipedal in shape, and centrally of its two longer sides). The bosses orpillars 26 are provided with internal sets of threads (only one of which, indicated 27, is visible in Figure 1) for the insertion of respective screws 28 (two of which are shown schematically in Figure 1). Thescrews 28 extend from thehead 12 through the valve plate 9 (which is purposely provided with corresponding through-holes 29, shown in Figure 2) and through thecentral part 24 of the casing so as to be engaged in thethreads 27 provided in thebosses 26 in thelower part 25 of the casing. - The front wall of the
part 25, facing the pulley 7, also has a hole with a horizontal axis for the mounting
of abearing 30 for supporting the shaft 5, with whichoil seal members 31 are associated. Another hole with a horizontal axis is provided in a corresponding position on the rear wall of thelower part 25 of the casing and afurther bearing 32 is mounted therein, usually by driving, for supporting the rear end of the shaft 5. - The hole in which the
bearing 32 is mounted communicates with a lubricant (oil) drainage space orsump 33 provided at the top with a threadedhole 34 in which an oil drainage andcollection plug 35 of the type described in European patent application EP-A-0 232 688 is mounted. A duct with a horizontal axis, indicated 36, extends through the upper part of thesump 33 and opens into thelower part 25 of the casing. - When the
plug 35 is unscrewed from thehole 34, theduct 36 enables the lubricant to be fed into thelower part 25 of the casing, which serves as a crankcase. - The
duct 36 is closed by the threaded shank of theplug 35 when the latter is screwed intohole 34. The lubricant fumes which are generated during the operation of the compressor are therefore discharged from thelower part 25 of the casing through thebearing 32 and thesump 33, until they reach theplug 35. The lubricant which collects in theplug 35 as a result of the trapping action of the latter can thus fall back into the compressor casing to ensure optimum lubrication of thebearing 32. - Finally, two
screw plugs part 25 beneath the aperture into which thebearing 32 is driven. Theplug 25a is of transparent material and thus enables the level reached by the lubricant inside thepart 25 to be checked. Theplug 25b is mounted close to the base wall of thepart 25 and - when it is removed - enables all the lubricant to be drained out. - Two lubricant drainage ducts, indicated 37, extend from the
cylinders 2 to two corresponding drainage apertures provided at the upper end of theplug 35. - Each of the
ducts 37 extends from an intake aperture 38 (only one of which is visible in Figure 1) provided in a respectiveannular groove 39 in the inner wall of the cylinder, centrally thereof. - The
grooves 39 are formed in positions determined in dependence on the geometrical characteristics of thepistons 3. Each of these is constituted essentially by two elements, that is to say, alower portion 40 connected to the upper end of thecorresponding connecting rod 4 by apin 41, and anupper portion 42 which is fixed to thelower portion 40 by means of ascrew 43. Thescrew 43 extends generally axially of thepiston 3 and is kept in position by alocking screw 44. - The
lower portion 40 of eachpiston 3 is tapered at the top so as to form abevelled shoulder 45 which converges towards the top of therespective cylinder 2. - The upper or
head portion 42, however, is generally cylindrical in shape, with a loweraxial appendage 46 which is coupled in the manner of a tenon to the narrower top part of thelower portion 40. - The lower end of the latter, which faces the connecting
rod 4, has recesses in which respectiveoil scraper rings 47 are mounted. -
Similar rings 48, usually made of polytetrafluoroethylene, are provided in thehead portion 42. - The piston structure illustrated enables operation with oil-film lubrication in correspondence with the lower portions of the
pistons 2 and operation virtually without lubrication in correspondence with the head portions. This solution minimises the contamination of the compressed air by the lubricating oil. - The fact that the
sealing rings 48 are mounted on ahead portion 42 which can be separated from the rest of the piston considerably simplifies the periodic replacement of therings 48 which are subject to wear during the use of the compressor. - In fact, in order to replace the
rings 48, it suffices to remove thehead 12 and the valve plate 9, so as to make the top regions of thecylinders 2 accessible from the outside , and then to loosen thelocking screws 44 and thescrews 43 so that thehead portions 42 of thepistons 3 can be removed from thecylinders 2. - Once the
worn rings 48 have been replaced by new rings, thehead portions 42 can be put back in the cylinders and fixed to the respectivelower portions 40 by means of thescrews 43 and thescrews 44; the compressor can then be closed again by the fitting of the valve plate 9 and thehead 12. - The
rings 48 can thus be replaced without the need to remove the pistons completely from the cylinders, thus avoiding an operation which, in the majority of cases, would require the almost complete dismantling of the compressor 1. - The
grooves 39, which are intended to act as traps for the collection and recovery of the lubricatingoil 37, to prevent excessive migration of the lubricant towards the top parts of thecylinders 2, are formed so as to open into the annular space between thehead portion 42 and thebevelled shoulder 45 of thelower portion 40 of the piston. - More precisely, the
annular recesses 39 are formed so as to be slightly above the position reached by the lower end of theshoulder 45 when thepiston 3 is in the top dead centre position.
