Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a motor protective device which is used for a sealed motor compressor and has a function to detect an abnormal refrigerant pressure together with an over-current and an overheat. <P>SOLUTION: A pressure-proof container is constituted of a container 2 and a cover plate 3 in the motor protective device 1. A stationary contact point 9 is adhered to one electroconductive terminal pin 8A insert-penetrating and fixed to the cover plate 3. A thermally-actuating plate 5 is connected with and fixed to the inner face of the container 2, and the movable contact point 6 is arranged open-close free with the stationary contact point 9. In the motor protective device 1, because a thermally-actuating plate fixing position 2A of the container 2 is flattened and deformed, the pressure between the contact points is adjusted, and the operated temperature is calibrated. A displacement part 2B which is made easier to deform by making the plate thickness thinner than that of its peripheral part is installed in the vicinity of the thermally- actuated plate fixing position. The operating temperature of the thermally- actuated plate can be reduced because the displacement part 2B of the container is deformed in the smashed direction if it is exposed to a high pressure state. Therefore, the current supply can be cut off under a high pressure. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

This heat-responsive switch 101 is used by connecting one of the two conductive terminal pins 108A and 108B to the winding of the electric motor and the other end to a power source, and the temperature around the heat-responsive switch 101 becomes abnormally high. When an abnormal current flows through the electric motor, the heat responsive plate 104 reverses to open the contacts. Further, by providing the fusing part 105A in which the cross-sectional area of a part of the heater (heating element) 105 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the other part, in the unlikely event that the guaranteed number of operations of the heat-responsive switch is exceeded, welding of contacts occurs. In addition, the fusing part 105A of the heater can be fused and the electric circuit can be cut off.

In the vicinity of the fixed position of the pressure-resistant container, a displacing portion that is more easily deformed than the peripheral portion is formed, and the displacing portion is displaced in a direction in which the contact pressure between the movable contact and the fixed contact increases when pressure is applied from the outside of the container. It is characterized by that.

Further, the maximum displacement position of the displacement portion is arranged so as to be closer to the tip end of the heat responsive plate than the fixed position of the heat responsive plate. Further, the fixed contact is fixed to the contact fixing position via the fixed contact support, and the maximum displacement position of the displacement portion is arranged in the fixed contact direction rather than the contact fixing position.
With this structure, when the container receives high pressure, the heat responsive plate and the fixed contact support are displaced so that the movement in the direction of the tip becomes large. Even if the amount is large, the pressure between the contacts can be sufficiently increased to cause a change in the operating temperature of the heat responsive plate, and a protective operation against the pressure can be reliably performed.

A and 8B are airtightly insulated and fixed. A fixed contact 9 is fixed near the tip of one of the conductive terminal pins 8A on the inner side of the airtight container, and is arranged so as to face the movable contact 6 and be separated from it. In this embodiment, as the fixed contact 9, a contact in which the contact portion is clad on the substrate is directly fixed to the conductive terminal pin, but the fixed contact 9 may be fixed via a fixed piece.

In the embodiment, the other conductive terminal pin 8B
Heater 10 as a heating element near the tip of the inside of the airtight container
Of the heater 10 is fixed, and the other end of the heater 10 is fixed on the cover plate. The heater 10 is arranged substantially along the periphery of the conductive terminal pin 8B, and is also arranged substantially parallel to the heat responsive plate 5 so that the heat exchange relationship is improved. The heater 10 is provided with a fusing part 10A having a smaller cross-sectional area than other parts. During normal operation of the compressor, which is the controlled device, the fusing part 10 is driven by the operating current of the electric motor.
A does not melt, and when the electric motor is in a restrained state, the heat responsive plate 5 reverses in a short time to open the gap between the contacts, so that the melted portion does not melt in this case either. If the electric motor protection device is repeatedly opened and closed for a long period of time, the contacts may be welded after a certain number of guaranteed operations, and the contacts may not be opened. In that case, the temperature of the fusing part 10A rises due to the overcurrent due to the restrained state of the electric motor, which eventually leads to the fusing, so that the power supply to the electric motor can be reliably cut off.

Next, the operation of the motor protection device 1 will be described. The electric motor protection device 1 is arranged in a closed container of a hermetic electric compressor, and is fixed on, for example, a coil end of the electric motor or a conductive terminal of the closed container. Further, the electric motor protection device 1 is arranged in the discharge-side refrigerant which has a high pressure and which easily detects overheating of the electric motor and the compressor. Conductive terminal pins 8A, 8
One of B is connected to a power source and the other is connected to a main winding of an electric motor, and an operating current flows through the contacts of the electric motor protection device 1 during operation of the compressor. At this time, the heat responsive plate 5 of the motor protection device 1 self-heats and the heater 10 also heats, but the heat is taken away by the refrigerant flowing around the motor protection device 1, so that the heat responsive plate 5 is not removed during normal operation. The reversal operation temperature is not reached, and the energization is continued.

When the refrigerant temperature rises, the motor protection device 1 is no longer cooled, and the temperature of the heat responsive plate 5 also rises. When the operating temperature is reached, the heat responsive plate flips suddenly and opens the contacts to operate. Cut off the current. In this way, when the operation is stopped and the temperature of the refrigerant is lowered and the temperature of the heat responsive plate 5 is also lowered to the predetermined temperature, the heat responsive plate jumps back to bring the movable contact 6 into contact with the fixed contact 9 and restart the energization.

Further, for example, if the compressor is restrained for some reason or is temporarily overloaded, the current flowing through the motor increases and the coil temperature of the motor rises. At this time, the amount of heat generated by the heat responsive plate 5 and the heater 10 also increases as the current increases, so that the heat responsive plate 5 reaches the reversing operation temperature and undergoes a sudden jump reversal and opens the contacts to cause an operating current flowing through the motor. Shut off. By cutting off the current, the heat generation of the motor coil is stopped and the internal heat generation of the motor protection device is also stopped. In this way, when the temperature of the heat responsive plate 5 drops to a predetermined temperature, the heat responsive plate jumps back to resume energization.

Here, when the cause of restraint or overload of the compressor is removed by temporarily stopping the compressor,
The electric compressor can resume normal operation. Further, when the cause of restraint or the like is not removed, the electric motor protection device 1 operates again due to the overcurrent to cut off the energization. In this way, the electric motor is prevented from being burned while repeating energization and interruption. Normally, in such a state, the performance of the refrigerator and the air conditioner will not be exhibited, and the abnormality of the compressor will be noticed.

For example, when the abnormality of the compressor is not noticed for a long time of more than half a month, the thermal response plate 1 exceeds its endurance limit, the operating temperature is changed, and the contacts are welded to cause the current to flow. May not be cut off. In particular, if the current is not cut off, the coil temperature of the electric motor will continue to rise and eventually burn out. In view of this, in the present embodiment, the heater 10 is provided with a fusing part 10A having a smaller cross-sectional area than the other parts, and when an overcurrent continues to flow, the fusing part 10A is melted to reliably cut off the electric circuit and to prevent the electric motor. Can be prevented from burning.

Further, in the present invention, the operation can be stopped even when the pressure in the closed container rises abnormally. This will be described below. Example motor protection device 1
As described above, the operating temperature is calibrated by adjusting the contact pressure between the movable contact 6 and the fixed contact 9 of the heat responsive plate 5 by crushing and deforming the heat responsive plate fixing position 2A of the container 2 from the outside. . The crushing amount itself for this temperature calibration is small, and the operating temperature can be lowered by increasing the crushing amount and increasing the contact pressure within the adjustable range. Therefore, in the present invention, when the container is exposed to an abnormally high pressure, the heat responsive plate fixing position 2A is deformed in the direction of being crushed to lower the operating temperature of the heat responsive plate.

During normal operation, the heat responsive plate 5 of the motor protection device 1 maintains a temperature lower than the operating temperature by about 10 to 20 ° C. due to heat from the surroundings and self-heating, but when the refrigerant pressure rises, the compressor operates. Since the overload operation state is set, the operating current of the electric motor also increases and the temperature of the heat responsive plate also rises.
At this time, if the temperature of the heat responsive plate 5 rises to the operating temperature due to the electric current, the motor protection device can operate to cut off the power supply to the motor and stop the operation of the compressor. However, the increase in current due to overload is not necessarily large, and depending on the conditions, the increase in operating current alone may result in insufficient temperature rise to operate the thermal actuator plate. If it is continued, the refrigerant pressure may reach a dangerous state.

Here, due to the abnormal pressure, the heat responsive plate fixing position 2A of the container 2 is deformed in the crushing direction, so that the operating temperature of the heat responsive plate 5 is lowered in the same manner as the temperature calibration work is performed on the motor protection device. Therefore, the heat responsive plate can reliably perform the reversing operation by the self-heating due to the overload current to interrupt the electric path. Further, in this embodiment, the fixed position on the base side of the heat responsive plate is deformed.Furthermore, the fixed position is not moved in parallel, but is displaced so that the heat responsive plate is slightly tilted toward the contact side. The tip side of the plate can be largely displaced. Therefore, even if the displacement is small, the amount of movement on the fixed contact side can be sufficiently secured, and the operating temperature of the heat responsive plate can be sufficiently lowered.

The vicinity of the container 2 including the heat responsive plate fixing position 2A is processed by pressing and cutting separately from the drawing work so as to be thinner than other parts. Therefore, the container 2 itself is a pressure resistant container and has a high allowable pressure resistance performance, but only the displacement portion 2B surrounded by a diagonal line in FIG. 2 is slightly deformed by pressure. In this example, as shown in FIG.
The center 2C of this displacement portion 2B is located closer to the tip end side of the heat responsive plate 5 than the heat responsive plate fixing position 2A, while being removed from the center 2C which is the maximum displacement position. Therefore, the displacement part 2B
When is deformed by the pressure, the heat responsive plate 5 is displaced so as to incline the tip end direction while inclining from the normal posture shown by the broken line in FIG. Therefore, the movable contact side can be largely moved with respect to the displacement amount of the displacement portion 2B.

Here, the displacing portion may have a structure that elastically deforms or a structure that plastically deforms, depending on the protection means against pressure. For example, when the displacement portion is elastically bent with respect to pressure, the operating temperature slightly fluctuates because it is slightly deformed with respect to the pressure applied in normal use, but within the normal pressure range. If there is, the fluctuation remains within 1 to 2 ° C., so there is practically no problem. If the pressure in the hermetically sealed container rises excessively due to some abnormality, the displacement amount of the displacement portion 2B becomes large and the operating temperature of the heat responsive plate 5 is greatly lowered to cause a reversal operation, and the electric power to the electric motor of the electric compressor is cut off to operate. Can be canceled.

When the temperature of the heat responsive plate 5 of the motor protection device 1 is lowered to the reset temperature, the heat responsive plate suddenly recovers and the electric compressor is started and the electric compressor is restarted. To do. When the displacement portion 2B has a structure that elastically deforms, the normal operation can be resumed if the pressure in the closed container is reduced. If the pressure in the closed container has not dropped, the operating temperature of the heat responsive plate 5 remains lowered, and the heat responsive plate reverses in a short time even after restarting the operation until the pressure drops and the operation is stopped. To be done.

Further, in the case where the displacement portion 2B has a structure in which plastic deformation is caused when an excessive pressure is applied, when the abnormal pressure is once generated, the thermal response plate is reversed in a short time even after the operation is restarted, and the operation is performed. Since it stops, it is possible to avoid the risk of increasing the pressure again.

Further, the displacement portion 2B is made to have a shape which is slightly bulged to the outside in advance so as to cause a snap displacement due to excessive pressure or abrupt displacement due to buckling, until a region where protection is required is reached. The operating temperature of the thermal actuator plate can be kept near the desired calibration value with almost no displacement during this period, and the operating temperature can be drastically lowered when the pressure reaches the level at which protection is required to interrupt the electrical circuit. it can.
