Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to a scroll compressor.
  • Patent Document 1 discloses a scroll compressor configured to perform a first operation in which among a fixed-side oil groove, a movable-side oil groove, and a compression chamber (or a fluid chamber), only the fixed-side oil groove and the movable-side oil groove communicate with each other, and a second operation in which the movable-side oil groove simultaneously communicates with both of the fixed-side oil groove and the compression chamber after the first operation.
  • Patent Document 2 discloses a scroll compressor including a casing, a first scroll housed in the casing, and a second scroll defining a compression chamber together with the first scroll, the scroll compressor comprising an oil discharger formed in a facing surface of the first scroll facing the second scroll, and an oil supply groove.
  • Said oil supply groove is formed into an arc shape in plan view, with one end communicating with a suction chamber of the compression mechanism and the other end communicating with a recess formed in the cylindrical portion. The position and size of the recess are determined so that the recess can communicate with the outer space whichever position the moveable scroll is located. That is, the oil supply groove connects the suction chamber and the outer space.
  • Patent document 3 discloses a configuration in which an intermittent lubrication recess receives, at an oil supply position, lubricating oil in a high-pressure oil introduction groove, and after that, when the intermittent lubrication recess communicates with a fixed-side key groove at the oil supply position, the lubricating oil in the intermittent lubrication recess is injected into the fixed-side key groove.
  • the oil supplied into the fixed-side key groove is used for the lubrication of an Oldham coupling and then flows down toward an oil reservoir.
  • the movable-side oil groove communicates with the space in the compression chamber, radially outward of a movable scroll. Less oil is thus supplied to the space in the compression chamber, radially inward of the movable scroll.
  • a first aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a scroll compressor including a casing (20), a first scroll (60) housed in the casing (20), and a second scroll (70) defining a compression chamber (S) together with the first scroll (60).
  • the scroll compressor includes: an oil discharger (81, 82) formed in a facing surface of the first scroll (60) facing the second scroll (70) and at a position not overlapping with a guide groove for an Oldham coupling (46) on a scroll side as viewed from an axial direction; and an oil collection path (90) which is provided apart from the facing surface and through which the oil discharger (81, 82) communicates with a suction port (64) of the compression chamber (S).
  • the first scroll (60) has the oil discharger (81, 82) in its facing surface.
  • the oil discharger (81, 82) and the suction port (64) of the compression chamber (S) communicate with each other through the oil collection path (90).
  • oil can be supplied to the spaces in the compression chamber (S) which are located radially inward and outward of the movable scroll.
  • a second aspect of the present disclosure is an embodiment of the first aspect.
  • part of the oil discharger (81, 82) is open at a position radially outward of a relative sliding range of the second scroll (70) on the facing surface of the first scroll (60).
  • part of the oil discharger (81, 82) is open at a position radially outward of the relative sliding range of the second scroll (70), which prevents the oil discharger (81, 82) from being closed entirely by the second scroll (70).
  • a third aspect of the present disclosure is an embodiment of the first or second aspect.
  • the scroll compressor includes: an oil supplier (80) formed radially inward of the oil discharger (81, 82) in the facing surface of the first scroll (60); and an intermittent communication mechanism (87) configured to allow the oil supplier (80) to intermittently communicate with the oil discharger (81, 82).
  • the intermittent communication mechanism (87) allows the oil supplier (80) and the oil discharger (81, 82) to intermittently communicate with each other, which intermittently suspends the discharge of the oil from the oil supplier (80) to the oil discharger (81, 82). This configuration can reduce excessive oil discharged to the oil discharger (81, 82).
  • a fourth aspect of the present disclosure is an embodiment of the third aspect.
  • the intermittent communication mechanism (87) includes an oil conveyor (85, 86) formed in a facing surface of the second scroll (70) facing the first scroll (60).
  • the oil conveyor (85, 86) formed in the facing surface of the second scroll (70) constitutes the intermittent communication mechanism (87). Accordingly, by simply forming a groove-like oil conveyor (85, 86) in the facing surface of the second scroll (70), it is possible to make the oil supplier (80) and the oil discharger (81, 82) communicate with each other intermittently when the second scroll (70) is rotated relative to the first scroll (60).
  • a fifth aspect of the present disclosure is an embodiment of the fourth aspect.
  • the oil conveyor (85, 86) includes a plurality of oil conveyors provided circumferentially at a distance.
  • the plurality of oil conveyors (85, 86) are provided circumferentially at a distance.
  • the plurality of oil conveyors (85, 86) formed in this manner that is, formed into a shape in which a single oil conveyor (85, 86) is made discontinuous in a middle, avoids continuous connection between the oil supplier (80) and the oil discharger (81, 82) through the oil conveyor (85, 86). This configuration can reduce excessive oil discharged to the oil discharger (81, 82).
  • a sixth aspect of the present disclosure is an embodiment of any one of the first to fifth aspects.

  • the inside of the casing (20) includes the partitioned space (23) that communicates with the oil discharger (81, 82).
  • the opening (67) that communicates with the partitioned space (23) is formed between the suction port (64) and the suction pipe (12).
  • the oil collection path (90) includes the partitioned space (23) and the opening (67).
  • the high-temperature oil collected into the oil discharger (81, 82) dissipates heat and cools while passing through the partitioned space (23).
  • the oil with a high temperature is less likely to be supplied to the suction port (64).
  • a seventh aspect of the present disclosure is an embodiment of any one of the first to sixth aspects.
  • the oil discharger (81, 82) includes a plurality of oil dischargers (81, 82) formed in the facing surface of the first scroll (60).

  • the plurality of oil dischargers (81, 82) are opposed to each other across an axis of the first scroll (60).
  • the plurality of oil dischargers (81, 82) are opposed to each other across the axis of the first scroll (60). This configuration allows the collection of the oil from the separate positions in the circumferential direction of the first scroll (60).
  • a ninth aspect of the present disclosure is an embodiment of any one of the first to eighth aspects.
  • the first scroll (60) is a fixed scroll (60)

  • the fourth operation is followed by the first operation again. After that, the second, third, and fourth operations are repeated sequentially.
  • the scroll compressor (10) includes: the casing (20), the fixed scroll (60) (first scroll) housed in the casing (20), and the movable scroll (70) (second scroll) defining the compression chamber (S) together with the fixed scroll (60).
  • the scroll compressor includes: the first oil discharge groove (81) and the second oil discharge groove (82) (oil dischargers) formed in the facing surface of the fixed scroll (60) facing the movable scroll (70); and the oil collection path (90) through which the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82) communicate with the suction port (64) of the compression chamber (S).
  • first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82) are formed in the facing surface of the fixed scroll (60).
  • the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82) and the suction port (64) of the compression chamber (S) communicate with each other through the oil collection path (90).
  • oil can be supplied to the spaces in the compression chamber (S) which are located radially inward and outward of the movable scroll (70).
  • the oil supplied to the facing surface of the fixed scroll (60) flows radially outward when the movable scroll (70) rotates relative to the fixed scroll (60), and is collected by the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82).
  • the oil collected by the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82) is supplied through the oil collection path (90) to the suction port (64), and is thus distributed to the spaces in the compression chamber (S) which are located radially inward and outward of the movable scroll (70).
  • the oil sealing performances of the inner and outer chambers can improve.
  • part of each of the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82) is open at a position radially outward of the relative sliding range of the movable scroll (70) on the facing surface of the fixed scroll (60).
  • part of each of the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82) is open at a position radially outward of the relative sliding range of the movable scroll (70), which prevents the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82) from being closed entirely by the movable scroll (70).
  • This configuration can reduce the suspension of the oil supply to the suction port (64).
  • the scroll compressor (10) further includes: the oil supply groove (80) (oil supplier) formed radially inward of the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82) in the facing surface of the fixed scroll (60); and the intermittent communication mechanism (87) configured to allow the oil supply groove (80) to intermittently communicate with the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82).

  • the intermittent communication mechanism (87) is configured as the first and second oil conveyance grooves (85, 86) (oil conveyors) formed in the facing surface of the movable scroll (70) facing the fixed scroll (60).
  • the first and second oil conveyance grooves (85, 86) formed in the facing surface of the movable scroll (70) constitute the intermittent communication mechanism (87). Accordingly, by simply forming the first and second groove-like oil conveyance grooves (85, 86) in the facing surface of the movable scroll (70), it is possible to make the oil supplier (80) and the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82) communicate with each other intermittently when the movable scroll (70) is rotated relative to the fixed scroll (60).
  • each of the first and second oil conveyance grooves (85, 86) includes the plurality of oil conveyance grooves (85, 86) provided circumferentially at the distance.
  • the plurality of first and second oil conveyance grooves (85, 86) are provided circumferentially at a distance.
  • the plurality of first and second oil conveyance grooves (85, 86) formed in this manner that is, formed into a shape in which a single first or second oil conveyance groove (85, 86) is made discontinuous in a middle, avoids continuous connection between the oil supplier (80) and the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82) through the first and second oil conveyance grooves (85, 86), respectively.
  • This configuration can reduce excessive oil discharged to the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82).
  • the inside of the casing (20) includes an upper space (23) (partitioned space) that is partitioned by the casing (20) and a housing (50) and communicates with the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82).
  • a suction pipe (12) is provided on an upstream side of the suction port (64) with a predetermined gap interposed between the suction pipe (12) and the suction port (64); the suction port (64) therefore has an opening (67) that communicates with the upper space (23).
  • the oil collection path (90) includes the upper space (23) and the opening (67).
  • the inside of the casing (20) includes the upper space (23) that communicates with the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82).
  • the opening (67) that communicates with the upper space (23) is formed between the suction port (64) and the suction pipe (12).
  • the oil collection path (90) includes the upper space (23) and the opening (67).
  • the high-temperature oil collected into the first and second oil discharge grooves (81, 82) dissipates heat and cools while passing through the upper space (23).
  • the oil with a high temperature is less likely to be supplied to the suction port (64).
