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 1 Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2016-160816
  • EP 1 158 166 A1 discloses a scroll compressor comprising a casing to which a suction pipe is connected, a fixed scroll housed in the casing and a movable scroll that forms a compression chamber with a fixed scroll, a casing having therein an internal space through which a refrigerant containing oil flows, and the fixed scroll having a suction port that communicates with the internal space and the compression chamber.
  • the suction pipe is brazed to a joint pipe attached to a dome of the casing. A larger-diameter portion and a smaller-diameter portion are disposed inside the joint pipe.
  • the oil contained in the refrigerant flowing through the internal space of the dome adheres to the outer circumferential surface of the joint pipe.
  • the outer diameter of the joint pipe is larger than the opening of the suction port. Therefore the oil that has adhered to the outer circumferential surface of the joint pipe falls down naturally and is less likely to enter the suction port.
  • EP 1 156 222 A1 discloses a suction pipe having a larger- diameter portion, a smaller-diameter portion and a diameter-reducing portion. The larger-diameter portion is fitted to a casing.
  • JP 2015 036514 A discloses a scroll compressor with a suction port having a tapered portion.
  • US 2016/061203 A1 discloses that an end of a suction pipe is located away from an open surface of a fixed scrol
  • US 5 304 045 A discloses a suction pipe having a diameter-reducing portion; however the suction port does not communicate with the internal space.
  • 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 invention is directed to a scroll compressor according to claim 1.

  • the oil flowing through the internal space (23) flows into the suction port (64) through the gap between the smaller-diameter portion (12b) of the suction pipe (12) and the suction port (64).
  • 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 width of the opening of the suction port (64) is greater toward the upstream side due to the tapered portion (64a). This configuration allows the oil to flow easily along the tapered portion (64a) and efficiently into the suction port (64).
  • a third aspect of the present invention is an embodiment of any one of the first to second aspects.
  • a downstream end of the suction pipe (12) is flush with an open surface (60a) of the fixed scroll (60) where the suction port (64) opens.

  • D represents an inner diameter of the suction pipe (12).
  • the gap H between the downstream end of the suction pipe (12) and the open surface (60a) and the inner diameter D of the suction pipe (12) are determined to satisfy the above-described condition. This allows the oil flowing through the internal space (23) to flow into the suction port (64) efficiently, thus improving the efficiency of the compressor.
