Abstract
Description
- Embodiments of the invention relate to a rotary compressor and a refrigerating cycle device which uses the rotary compressor.
- In a rotary compressor, which houses an electric motor and a compression mechanism portion that is driven via a rotary shaft connected to the electric motor in a hermetic case and which compresses a working fluid such as a refrigerant, various measures are taken in order to increase a discharge volume of the working fluid to be compressed and discharged, for example, a measure described in the following
Patent Document 1 is taken. - According to a rotary compressor described in the
Patent Document 1, H/D<0.4 is set for a 1-cylinder type and H/D≤0.3 is set for a 2-cylinder type where an inner diameter of a cylinder chamber is D and a height of the cylinder chamber is H. - [PATENT DOCUMENT 1] Patent Publication No.
4864572 - However, in the rotary compressor described in the
Patent Document 1, it is necessary to enlarge the inner diameter of the cylinder chamber in order to increase a discharge volume, and an inner diameter of a hermetic case also becomes large since a pressure resistance falls with the enlargement. In particular, in a case that a discharge pressure is high, it is necessary to thicken a thickness of the hermetic case, which causes enlargement of size, increase of weight and deterioration of resource-saving property of a rotary compressor. Thus, it may be considered to enlarge H/D to increase a discharge volume without enlarging an inner diameter of the hermetic case. However, in the case, since the diameter of an electric motor cannot be enlarged, a compression load torque becomes excessively large in a 4-pole electric motor which is generally used conventionally and the compressor efficiency lowers. - An object of an embodiment of the invention is to provide a rotary compressor which is small in size yet large in discharge volume and a refrigerating cycle device using the rotary compressor.
- According to a rotary compressor of an embodiment, the rotary compressor comprises a hermetic case, an electric motor which is housed at an upper portion in the hermetic case and has six or more poles, a compression mechanism portion which is housed at a lower portion in the hermetic case and is driven via a rotary shaft connected to the electric motor, and a discharge pipe which is provided at the upper portion in the hermetic case, wherein
the compression mechanism portion has two cylinders which have covered upper and lower both ends and cylinder chambers formed inside, compresses a working fluid by eccentric rotation of a roller fitted to the rotary shaft in the cylinder chambers and discharges the compressed working fluid into the hermetic case,
the electric motor has a rotor which rotates with the rotary shaft and a stator which surrounds the outer periphery of the rotor,
a discharge flow channel which leads the working fluid discharged from the insides of the cylinder chambers to a side of the discharge pipe is formed, and
a maximum discharge pressure of the working fluid becomes three or more MPa, wherein
the rotary compressor is characterized in that any of the following relational expressions (1) to (3) are satisfied where an inner diameter of the cylinder chambers is D1, a total height of the cylinder chambers of the two cylinders is H, a distance from an upper end portion of the stator to an inner wall surface of an upper portion of the hermetic case is L1, a sectional area of an inner side of the hermetic case is Ac, a total sectional area of the discharge flow channel is Ad and a thickness of a stator core of the stator is T.
- Thereby, a rotary compressor which is small in size yet large in discharge volume and a refrigerating cycle device using the rotary compressor can be obtained.

Fig. 2 shows s a relation between "H/D1" and a ratio of a COP (Coefficient Of Performance) at a time of using a 4-pole electric motor and a COP at a time of using a 6-pole electric motor (a COP at a time of using a 4-pole electric motor / a COP at a time of using a 6-pole electric motor), in a case of enlarging the total height "H" of thecylinder chambers cylinder chambers hermetic case 7 are kept to be the same, under a rated condition using a refrigerant by which the maximum discharge pressure at a time of operation is three or more MPa (for example, R410A, R32, carbon dioxide). - From
Fig. 2 , it is found that, in the area of 0.85×D1<H<L1 which is an area in which the compression load torque is large, the COP ratio becomes one or more and the efficiency of a 6-pole electric motor becomes higher by copper loss suppressing effect or iron loss reducing effect due to decrease of a peak magnetic flux between iron cores at a time of a large current. Accordingly, in a case of 0.85×D1 < H < L1, by using a 6-pole electric motor, promotion of small diameter of thehermetic case 7, increase of discharge volume and high efficiency can be attained at the same time, and arotary compressor 2 which has a high pressure resistance, is small, light in weight and large in discharge volume and has a high resource-saving property can be provided. - In
Fig. 2 , a case in which a 6-pole electric motor is compared to a 4-pole electric motor is described as an example, but a similar effect can be obtained in an electric motor of 6 or more poles, for example, an 8-pole electric motor, a 10-pole electric motor etc. -
Fig. 3 shows a measurement result of an oil discharge volume of the lubricatingoil 12 from thedischarge pipe 11 with respect to Ad (a total sectional area of the discharge flow channel 15)/Ac (a sectional area of the space portion of the inner side of the hermetic case 7) when 0.85×D1<H is satisfied and the distance L1 from the upper end portion of thestator 14 to the inner wall surface of the upper portion of thehermetic case 7 is made larger than a total height H of thecylinder chambers - The oil discharge quantity is denoted by a weight ratio to a circulation quantity of a gas refrigerant. The flow velocity of the gas refrigerant in the
discharge flow channel 15 of theelectric motor 8 becomes large as the discharge volume of the gas refrigerant is increased by changing the total height "H" of thecylinder chambers cylinder chambers discharge flow channel 15, and it is found that the oil discharge quantity increases rapidly in a case of Ad/Ac<0.06, especially. -
Fig. 4 shows an efficiency ratio of the 6-poleelectric motor 8 to Ad/Ac. The efficiency ratio of theelectric motor 8 is denoted by a ratio to an electric motor efficiency in a case of Ad/Ac=0.13. FromFig. 4 , it is found that lowering of the space factor of the field winding 14b, lowering of the sectional area of thepermanent magnet 13b etc. are invited in order to secure the area of thedischarge flow channel 15 and that the efficiency of theelectric motor 8 falls much, in a case of Ad/Ac>0.13. From these, the oil discharge quantity can be reduced while suppressing deterioration of electric motor efficiency, by satisfying H<L1 and 0.06<Ad/Ac<0.13 (the relational expression 2). -
Fig. 5 shows an efficiency ratio of the 6-poleelectric motor 8 to T (a thickness of thestator core 14a)/H (a total height of thecylinder chambers relational expression 2).are satisfied The efficiency ratio of theelectric motor 8 is denoted by a ratio to an efficiency of the electric motor at T/H=1.2. It is found that, in a case of T/H<1.2, the thickness "T" of thestator core 14a is small with respect to a compression load torque and lowering of the efficiency of theelectric motor 8 is invited. -
Fig. 6 shows a relation between a ratio (T/H) of a thickness T of thestator core 14a of thestator 14 to a total height H of thecylinder chambers discharge flow channel 15 of theelectric motor 8 to a theoretical work Wth of the compressor. At 1.5<T/H, Wd/Wth increases rapidly. From these, the pressure loss of thedischarge flow channel 15 can be reduced while suppressing deterioration of the efficiency of the electric motor, under 1.2<T/H<1.5 (the relational expression 3). - Accordingly, by satisfying any of the above
relational expressions 1 to 3, therotary compressors 2, which has a high pressure resistance, is small and light in weight, has a large discharge volume, has a high resource-saving property, and moreover has a small oil discharge quantity and is high reliability can be provided. - In a case that thinning of the
hermetic case 7 and increase of a discharge volume are enhanced, a sufficient quantity of the lubricatingoil 12 can be reserved at the bottom of thehermetic case 7, by setting as Av/Ac>0.1 (the relational expression 4) and H<L2 (a distance from the lower end portion of therotor 13 to an inner wall surface of a lower portion of the hermetic case 7)/2 (the relational expression 5). Even when the lubricatingoil 12 is discharged, rapid fall of the oil surface of the lubricatingoil 12 can be prevented and a more reliablerotary compressor 2 can be provided. -
Fig. 7 shows a COP ratio under a rated conditions to D2/H which is a ratio of an inner diameter D2 of themain bearing 18 and the sub-bearing 19 and a total height H of thecylinder chambers rotary shaft 10 becomes insufficient and bending of therotary shaft 10 becomes excessive so that COP falls greatly. On the other hand, in the area of D2/H>0.4, the diameter of therotary shaft 10 becomes large more than needed with respect to a compression load torque, increase of an axial sliding loss is invited, and COP falls. From these, therotary compressor 2 which becomes much more efficient can be provided by setting as 0.3<D2/H<0.4 (the relational expression 6). - While certain embodiments of the invention have been described above, these embodiments have been presented by way of example only, and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
