Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to a compressor, preferably used in refrigerators, wherein the lubrication of the movable parts is improved.
- In compressors, preferably used in refrigerators, lubrication is necessary for the movable parts of the compressor not to be affected by friction forces and, for heat to be discharged. In compressors, the lubrication of the bearings is achieved usually by rotation of the crank at high revolutions. The lubrication is performed by sucking the lubricant oil inside the compressor casing via an oil suction pipe at the lower portion of the crank and by conducting it to the movable/heated parts. Although a lubrication process performed by utilizing several channels located on the crank improves the lubrication efficiency, lubrication problems are encountered particularly in variable speed compressors at low revolutions.

- In household appliances, preferably in cooling devices, the circulation of the refrigerant used to realize the cooling, is achieved by means of a compressor (1).
- The compressor (1) comprises a motor (15), a lower casing (2) that carries the parts inside the said compressor (1), an upper casing (9) above the lower casing (2), a cylinder (3) between the lower (2) and upper casing (9), which is utilized to pump the refrigerant gas inside, a cylinder head (8) on the cylinder (3) the head of which provides the circulation of the gas sucked and pumped, a piston (4) whereby the refrigerant gas is compressed in the cylinder hole, a crank (5) which transmits the motion obtained from the motor (15), a connecting rod (6) which transmits the motion obtained from the crank (5) to the piston (4), a piston pin (7) that connects the piston(4) and the connecting rod (6), a balance weight (11) used to diminish the negative effect of eccentricities of gravitational centers of the components such as the crank (5), the connecting rod (6) and the piston (4) with respect to the rotation axis of the crank (5), a throwing pipe (13) fixed to the rotation axis of the crank (5) at an angle, wherein the oil that comes from the crank (5) and lubricates the bearings is flung to the upper casing (9) by the rotation of the said pipe together with the crank (5), a guiding member (14) which ensures that the oil flung by the throwing pipe (13) does not reach the cylinder block and obstruct mixing with the refrigerant but is routed onto the connecting rod (6), piston (4) and piston pin (7) and a suction muffler (10) preferably made of plastic material whereby the refrigerant gas reaches the cylinder block without being heated and the noise that might be generated by the refrigerant gas is prevented.
- The compressor (1) contains a preferably liquid fluid, which facilitates the motion of the operating parts and transfers the heat generated inside. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, oil is utilized as the liquid fluid.
- The crank (5) comprises an oil suction pipe (12) whereby the oil inside the lower casing (2) is conducted to the interior of the crank (5) by suction, an oil transfer pipe (20) transferring the oil to the throwing pipe (13) and to the upper portions of the crank (5), more than one channel (17), preferably in helical form, located at the outer surface, which are connected to each other at some point and wherein the oil proceeds upwards on the surface as a result of rotary motion, at least one channel inlet opening (18) for each channel (17) whereby the oil sucked from the oil suction pipe (12) is transferred to the channel (17), a channel outlet opening (16) which ensures that at least two of the channels (17) communicate with each other and with the oil transfer pipe (20) and that the oil is transferred to the inside of it and, a junction (19) where several channels (17) meet.
- The crank (5), which transmits the rotary motion of the motor (15) to the piston (4) as linear motion by utilizing a connecting rod (6) mechanism, is a tight fit to the rotor and thus rotates as a consequence of the rotation of the rotor. The oil suction pipe (12) which preferably is a tight fit to the crank (5), provides the suction of the oil inside the lower casing (2) via the forces created as it rotates with the crank (5). Through the forces created during the rotation of the crank (5), it is achieved that the oil sticks to the surface of the crank (5) and thereby that an oil film (A) is formed in the crank (5). The thickness of the said oil film (A) at the level of the channel inlet opening (18), affects the amount of the oil transferred to the upper bearings and the starting of the lubrication at low revolutions. The oil sucked by the oil suction pipe (12) reaches the channel inlet opening (18) by passing through the crank (5) and diffuses through the channel inlet opening (18) into the channel (17). The oil that moves inside the channel (17) leaves the channel (17) through the channel outlet opening (16) and enters the oil transfer pipe (20) wherein it reaches the throwing pipe (13) that flings it into the compressor (1). In this way, it is achieved that the movable parts inside the compressor (1) are lubricated and thus, that the motion of the parts is facilitated as a result of the reduced friction and additionally, that the heat generated during the motion is transferred to the upper casing (9) via the oil that is flung to the said casing and consequently is discharged to the outside.
- In one embodiment of the present invention, the crank (5) comprises two channel inlet openings (18) positioned approximately at the same distance to the inlet opening of the oil suction pipe (12), two channels (17), in the direction of the rotary motion of the crank (5), with different helix angles (α, β) and, communicating with each of the two channel inlet openings (18) and, a channel outlet opening (16) where the channels (17) meet and at the same time communicate with the oil transfer pipe (20); (
Figure 2 ). - In another embodiment of the present invention, the crank (5) comprises two channel inlet openings (18) positioned approximately at the same distance to the inlet opening of the oil suction pipe (12), two channels (17), in the direction of the rotary motion of the crank (5), with the same helix angle (Φ) and, communicating with each of the two channel inlet openings (18), another channel (17) with a different helix angle (θ) from the helix angle (Φ) of the afore-mentioned channels (17) and a channel outlet opening (16) where this other channel (17) is connected to; (
Figure 3 ). - In another embodiment of the present invention, the crank (5) comprises two channel inlet openings (18) positioned at the same or a different distance to the inlet opening of the oil suction pipe (12), two channels (17) with different helix angles (α, β) communicating with the channel inlet openings (18), a junction (19) where the said channels (17) meet and, a channel (17) that connects the junction (19) to the channel outlet opening (16); (
Figure 4 ). - The channels (17) and the channel inlet opening (18) ensure that more amount of oil is transferred to the upper portions of the crank (5) and, by utilizing a throwing pipe (13), to the other movable parts. Moreover, by means of the channels (17) and the channel inlet openings (18) it is achieved that the hard-to-reach, movable and heated components are lubricated more easily.
- By the embodiment in accordance with the present invention, it is accomplished that more amount of oil sucked from the oil film (A) in the crank (5) and that the lubrication can be performed at lower revolutions. Particularly in variable revolution compressors (1), proper operating is ensured at different revolutions. Furthermore, the oil flow rate is increased as a consequence of the improvement of the lubrication system according to the present invention and thereby, in addition to the ease of the motion obtained; extra means are provided to assist the discharge of the heat inside the compressor (1) to the surroundings. As a result of the discharge of the heat inside the compressor (1), the temperature of the inlet opening is decreased wherein, thermodynamically; the volumetric efficiency of the compressor (1) is increased.
