Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a refrigerant piston compressor for a hermetically sealed small refrigerating machine having a guided in a piston bore of a cylinder housing piston, the cylinder housing is frontally completed with a pressure port and a suction port having valve plate and is provided with threaded bores, in which a first clamping element is screwed, which presses the valve plate against the cylinder housing, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a cylinder cover is provided in this most common type of refrigerant piston compressors, which has a pressure chamber in which the ejected from the cylinder, compressed refrigerant cached briefly
  • a suction chamber corresponding to the pressure chamber is provided, via which the refrigerant is sucked through the suction opening into the cylinder.
  • Pressure chamber and suction chamber are separated from each other in such cases by appropriate structural measures in the cylinder cover.
  • embodiments are also known in which a suction chamber in the cylinder cover is not provided and instead the refrigerant to be compressed is sucked into the cylinder via a suction muffler fastened directly to the valve plate.
  • 2006/103278 A which is used as the closest state, discloses a cylinder head arrangement in which the pressure channel and the suction channel are pressed by a first clamping element against the valve plate.
  • a first clamping element against the valve plate.
  • screws for fastening the valve plate and the first clamping element on the cylinder housing are used screws.
  • There is a locally very limited pressing the valve plate to the piston bore wall the edge region of a running in the form of a wrong "Y" clamping element crosses the piston bore twice in approximately the radial direction).
  • the cylinder housing is closed at the end with a valve plate having a pressure opening and a suction opening and provided with bores having respective threads , in which a first clamping element is screwed, which presses the valve plate against the cylinder housing, the clamping element has a clamping portion, which is in the mounted position above the piston bore wall of the piston bore and has the shape of an imaginary projection of the piston bore wall on the first clamping element to a pressure on the Exactly exert valve plate in the region of the piston bore wall and the valve plate in the region of at least a portion of the piston bore wall pressed against the cylinder housing, and in the screwed state has a bias towards the valve plate.

  • the clamping element is due to the bias in contrast to a conventional screw able to compensate settlements of the seal between the valve plate and the cylinder housing, whereby the maximum contact pressure can be reduced.
  • valve plate is made round.
  • material can be saved, in which the valve plate is made only slightly larger than the piston bore and thus no longer covers the entire or a large part of the front side of the cylinder housing.
  • This also provides advantages in heat transfer, since less heat can be transferred to the valve plate from the hot cylinder housing and thus less heat can be transferred to the sucked refrigerant, whereby the energy efficiency of the reciprocating compressor is increased.
  • the valve plate has positioning arms, which at least partially surround fastening screws screwed into the holes. Since the fastening screws are retained as an important component of the adaptation of conventional refrigerant compressors and serve as fastening means for the first clamping element according to the invention, by providing the positioning arms, the fastening screws can be used as alignment elements.
  • the exact positioning of the valve plate can also be made via the cylinder housing or the clamping element itself. This can be achieved, for example, by a shoulder in the cylinder housing or the first clamping element whose outline corresponds in a plane normal to the axis of the cylinder housing substantially the contour of the valve plate and whose depth preferably corresponds to the thickness of the valve plate.

This at least one exemption is required in order to connect components of the suction and / or pressure path with the suction opening or pressure opening in the valve plate in order to be able to transport refrigerant into or out of the cylinder.
  • a screwed into the holes second clamping element is provided, which clamped in the at least one release positioned components of the suction and / or pressure path against the valve plate, in this way, not only the valve plate against the cylinder housing clamped but also the components of the suction and / or pressure line.
  • the conventional valve cover can be replaced by more efficient components.
  • the first clamping element and second clamping element are made in one piece, whereby a particularly simple assembly is possible.
  • the clamping element on breakthroughs, which allow the inlet and outlet for the suction and pressure line. The clamping force is introduced at these points for the apertures indirectly via the suction or pressure path components in the valve plate.
