Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electric compressor configured such that a compression mechanism is driven through a rotary drive shaft by an electric motor.
  • a magnetic motor configured such that a permanent magnet is embedded in a rotor is used as an electric motor. It has been known that in the case of using a rare-earth magnet as the above-described magnet to increase magnetic force to obtain the same output, the axial thickness dimension of the rotor can be reduced for reduction in the weight and size of the electric motor and also of the electric compressor. However, in the case of using the rare-earth magnet, the weight of the rotor itself is reduced, and inertia force in rotation is decreased. For this reason, a change in the angular velocity of the motor rotor due to a change in a gas compression torque in a compression stroke becomes greater. This leads to a lower efficiency of the electric compressor and an increase in vibration and noise in the electric compressor.
  • a mass body as a rotary inertia body is provided at least on one or both of end surfaces of a motor rotor, and the inertia force of the mass body is used to reduce a change in the angular velocity of the motor rotor.
  • a compression mechanism is, through a bearing member, provided at least at one end portion of a rotary drive shaft joined to the motor rotor.
  • whirling is caused in proportional to the weight of the weight member and the distance between the compression mechanism and the electric motor. This might provide an adverse effect on balancing in a rotation system.
  • the weight member also serves as, e.g., a balance weight for balancing in the rotation system.
  • the present invention has been made in view of the above-described situation, and is intended to provide an electric compressor configured such that a weight member(s) as a rotary inertia body is provided on a rotor to reduce a change in the angular velocity of the rotor in order to realize performance improvement of the electric compressor and reduction in noise and vibration in the electric compressor and to reduce whirling due to the weight member(s) and an oil loss due to mixing of lubricant oil and refrigerant gas.
  • the electric compressor of the present invention employs the following techniques.
  • the electric compressor of the present invention includes an electric motor including a stator and a rotor, a rotary drive shaft joined to the rotor of the electric motor, a compression mechanism including, at least on one end side of the rotary drive shaft, a bearing member configured to support the rotary drive shaft and driven through the rotary drive shaft, and a weight member as a rotary inertia body provided at least on a compression mechanism side end surface or each end surface of the rotor of the electric motor.
  • the weight member provided on the compression mechanism side end surface of the rotor is a ring-shaped weight member hung over the outer periphery of a boss portion of the bearing member forming the compression mechanism and having a flat outer end surface.
  • the weight member as the rotary inertia body provided at least on the compression mechanism side end surface of the rotor is hung over the outer periphery of the boss portion of the bearing member forming the compression mechanism, and is in the ring shape with the flat outer end surface.
  • the weight member as the rotary inertia body increases inertia force to reduce a change in the angular velocity of the motor rotor due to a change in a gas compression torque in a compression stroke, leading to performance improvement of the electric compressor and reduction in noise and vibration in the electric compressor. Since the weight member is placed close to the compression mechanism as much as possible, whirling due to the weight member can be reduced.
  • an oil loss caused due to the following reason can be reduced: lubricant oil is mixed by rotation of the weight member in the electric compressor, and accordingly, the lubricant oil scatters to cause the oil loss.
  • the efficiency of the electric compressor can be further increased, and performance improvement and reduction in vibration and noise can be realized.
  • reliability in lubrication and heat exchange performance on a refrigeration cycle size can be improved.
  • the weight member provided on each end surface of the rotor is a ring-shaped weight member having a flat outer end surface.
  • the weight member provided on each end surface of the rotor is the ring-shaped weight member with the flat outer end surface.
  • mixing due to contact among an outer peripheral surface or an outer end surface of the rotating weight member, lubricant oil, and refrigerant gas in the electric compressor is reduced.
  • the efficiency of the electric compressor can be further increased.
  • because of reduction in the oil loss reliability in lubrication and heat exchange performance on the refrigeration cycle size can be improved.
  • the weight member is, with a rivet or a bolt/nut, integrally joined to the rotor at a plurality of countersunk portions provided at the outer end surface of the weight member, and a swaging portion of the rivet or a head portion of the bolt/nut is housed in a corresponding one of the countersunk portions.
  • the weight member is, with the rivet or the bolt/nut, integrally joined to the rotor at the countersunk portions provided at the outer end surface of the weight member, and the swaging portion of the rivet or the head portion of the bolt/nut can be housed in a corresponding one of the countersunk portions.
  • This can prevent the swaging portion or the head portion of the bolt/nut from protruding outward from the outer end surface of the weight member because the weight member is, with the rivet or the bolt/nut, integrally joined to the rotor at the countersunk portions and the swaging portion or the head portion of the bolt/nut is housed in a corresponding one of the countersunk portions.
  • mixing of lubricant oil and refrigerant gas by the swaging portion of the rivet or the head portion of the bolt/nut can be prevented, and the oil loss can be further reduced.
  • the weight member is in such an asymmetrical shape that a hole is provided at a predetermined eccentric position, and serves as both a rotary inertia body and a balance weight.
  • the weight member is in such an asymmetrical shape that the hole is provided at the predetermined eccentric position, and serves as both the rotary inertia body and the balance weight.
  • the weight member can function not only as the rotary inertia body but also as the balance weight for balancing in the rotation system because the hole is provided at the predetermined eccentric position of the weight member as the rotary inertia body to reduce a hole-side weight. Consequently, only providing the hole can offer two functions of the rotary inertia body and the balance weight without providing a protrusion etc. at one weight member.
  • each of the above-described advantageous effects can be provided while configuration simplification and cost reduction can be realized.
  • an end portion of the weight member close to the rotor is formed of a nonmagnetic body, and an outer end portion of the weight member is formed of a magnetic body.
  • the end portion of the weight member close to the rotor is formed of the nonmagnetic body, and the outer end portion of the weight member is formed of the magnetic body.
  • the nonmagnetic body such as a brass material (brass) and a stainless steel material as high specific gravity metal materials has been typically used for the weight member of this type to prevent magnetic flux leakage.
  • the end portion of the weight member close to the rotor is formed of the nonmagnetic body such as a brass material, a stainless steel material, and high manganese steel, and the outer end portion of the weight member is formed of the magnetic body.
  • the weight member can fulfill the functions thereof while cost reduction can be realized.
  • the nonmagnetic body of the weight member has a thickness dimension t at least exceeding 5% of the axial thickness H of the rotor.
  • the nonmagnetic body of the weight member has the thickness dimension t at least exceeding 5% of the axial thickness H of the rotor. Since the nonmagnetic body of the weight member has the thickness dimension t equal to or greater than 5% of the axial thickness H of the rotor, the outer end portion of the weight member can be formed of the inexpensive magnetic body such as cast iron while magnetic flux leakage can be sufficiently prevented. Thus, the weight member can fulfill the functions thereof, and cost reduction can be realized.
  • the weight of the weight member at least exceeds 10% of the total weight of the rotor.
  • the weight of the weight member at least exceeds 10% of the total weight of the rotor.
