Description

  The present invention relates to a rotary compressor, and more particularly to a rotary compressor used in, for example, an air conditioner or a refrigerator.

Examples of conventional rotary compressors include those described in JP-A-9-151888 (Patent Document 1). In Patent Document 1, a cylinder, end plate members (upper and lower bearing members) that form cylinder chambers (compression chambers) by closing both upper and lower end surfaces of the cylinder, and electric elements pivotally supported by these end plate members are disclosed. A rotary piston that rotates eccentrically by rotating the crankshaft, and discharges the refrigerant gas sucked and compressed by the eccentric rotation of the piston roller to the high-pressure side through the discharge port. Are listed. Here, the end plate member and the muffler cover (cover plate) form a muffler chamber communicating with the cylinder chamber.
JP-A-9-151888

  In the rotary compressor described in Patent Document 1, when the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas discharged from the cylinder chamber passes through the muffler chamber formed by the end plate member and the muffler cover, the low-temperature and low-pressure suction chamber in the cylinder chamber It will pass through the space that overlaps. As a result, the low-temperature and low-pressure intake gas is heated, and the volumetric efficiency is lowered.

  Here, a stagnation space in which the high-temperature and high-pressure discharge gas does not easily enter is provided in the muffler chamber, and the stagnation space is formed in a region overlapping the suction chamber in the cylinder chamber, so that the low-temperature and low-pressure suction gas is heated. It is possible to suppress the decrease in volumetric efficiency. On the other hand, when vacuuming (air venting) the outer shell during assembly or maintenance of the rotary compressor, if the air in the stagnation space does not escape, air remains in the outer shell, and the reliability of the rotary compressor There is a problem that decreases.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a rotary compressor capable of suppressing a decrease in volumetric efficiency and improving reliability. .

  A rotary compressor according to the present invention is provided with an outer shell, a cylinder provided in the outer shell, having an open end, and attached to the open end of the cylinder, forming a cylinder chamber together with the cylinder, and supplying refrigerant gas from the cylinder chamber. An end plate member having a discharge port for discharging, a muffler cover that is attached to the opposite side of the cylinder with respect to the end plate member, and that forms a muffler chamber together with the end plate member via the discharge port; The blade is supported by the cylinder so as to protrude into the cylinder, and is provided in the cylinder chamber, and together with the blade, divides the cylinder chamber into a refrigerant gas suction chamber and a refrigerant gas discharge chamber and revolves around the central axis of the cylinder chamber The barrier portion provided in the muffler chamber forms a stagnation space separated from other parts in the muffler chamber on the end plate member. The stagnation space is located closer to the suction chamber than the plane that passes through the center of the blade that protrudes most into the cylinder chamber and the central axis of the cylinder chamber, and communicates the stagnation space with other spaces in the outer shell. A passage to be formed is formed.

  In the above configuration, since the stagnation space formed by the barrier portion is provided in the muffler chamber, the high-temperature and high-pressure gas discharged from the cylinder chamber to the muffler chamber is obstructed by the barrier portion and enters the stagnation space. It becomes difficult to do. Here, since the stagnation space is formed so as to overlap with the suction chamber side, a region where the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant gas sucked into the cylinder chamber and the high-temperature and high-pressure gas discharged into the muffler chamber overlap each other. It becomes difficult to pass and heat exchange between both is suppressed. Therefore, heating of the refrigerant gas sucked into the cylinder chamber is suppressed, and a decrease in volumetric efficiency is suppressed. On the other hand, when evacuation is performed during assembly or maintenance of the rotary compressor, if the air in the stagnation space does not escape, air remains in the outer shell, and the reliability of the rotary compressor may be reduced. The Here, by forming a passage that connects the stagnation space with other spaces in the outer shell body, air in the stagnation space is easily released during vacuuming, and air may remain in the outer shell body. It is suppressed. As a result, the reliability of the rotary compressor is improved. As described above, according to the rotary compressor of the present invention, it is possible to suppress the decrease in volumetric efficiency and improve the reliability.

  It should be noted that the above-mentioned “stagnation space” does not necessarily have to be located on the suction chamber side from the above-described “plane passing through the center of the blade most protruding into the cylinder chamber and the central axis of the cylinder chamber”. If it has a portion located closer to the suction chamber than the plane, it corresponds to the “position toward the suction chamber” described above.

  The “passage” may be formed in the end plate member, may be formed in the muffler cover, or may be formed in a member different from the end plate member and the muffler cover.

  In the rotary compressor according to one embodiment, the passage is formed in the muffler chamber and communicates between the stagnation space and the other portion of the muffler chamber.

  According to the rotary compressor of this embodiment, a passage that communicates the stagnation section with another space in the outer shell can be formed with a simple structure.

  In the rotary compressor according to one embodiment, the passage is selectively formed only on the side far from the discharge port with respect to the stagnation space.

  In the rotary compressor according to one embodiment, the passage sectional area of the passage is smaller than the sectional area of the discharge port.

  According to the rotary compressors of these embodiments, during the operation of the rotary compressor, the refrigerant gas discharged from the discharge port is placed in the stagnation space while ensuring a discharge path for air from the stagnation space during evacuation. It is possible to suppress inflow into

  An upper cylinder chamber 21 </ b> A is formed by the upper cylinder 21 and the end plate members 30 and 50. The lower cylinder chamber 22A is formed by the lower cylinder 21 and the end plate members 50 and 70.

  The upper end plate member 30 includes a disk-shaped main body 31 and a boss 32 provided so as to protrude upward from the center of the main body 31. The main body 31 is provided with a discharge port (not shown) communicating with the cylinder chamber 21A.

  A discharge valve (not shown) is provided so as to be located on the opposite side of the cylinder 21 with respect to the main body 31. This discharge valve opens and closes a discharge port provided in the end plate member 30. Further, a cup-shaped muffler cover 60 (first muffler cover) is attached to the main body 31 so as to cover the discharge valve. The muffler cover 60 is fixed to the main body 31 by a fixing member such as a bolt.

  The muffler cover 60 and the end plate member 30 form a muffler chamber 60A (first muffler chamber). The muffler chamber 60A and the cylinder chamber 21A communicate with each other through the above-described discharge port.

  The lower end plate member 40 includes a disk-shaped main body portion 41 and a boss portion 42 provided so as to protrude downward from the central portion of the main body portion 41. The main body 41 is provided with a discharge port (not shown in FIG. 1) communicating with the cylinder chamber 22A.

  A discharge valve (not shown in FIG. 1) is provided so as to be located on the opposite side of the cylinder 22 with respect to the main body portion 41. This discharge valve opens and closes a discharge port provided in the end plate member 40. Further, a flat muffler cover 70 (second muffler cover) is attached to the main body 41 so as to cover the discharge valve. The muffler cover 70 is fixed to the main body 41 by a fixing member such as a bolt.

  The muffler cover 70 and the end plate member 40 form a muffler chamber 70A (second muffler chamber). The muffler chamber 70 </ b> A and the cylinder chamber 22 </ b> A are communicated with each other through a discharge port provided in the end plate member 40.

  A partition member 71 is provided between the muffler cover 70 and the end plate member 40. The partition member 71 and the end plate member 40 form a stagnation space 71A in which the refrigerant gas hardly enters the muffler chamber 70A.

  The muffler chamber 70 </ b> A and the muffler chamber 60 </ b> A are communicated with each other through holes (not shown) formed in the end plate member 40, the cylinder 22, the end plate member 50, the cylinder 21, and the end plate member 30. The muffler chamber 60 </ b> A and the space outside the muffler cover 60 are communicated with each other through a hole (not shown) formed in the muffler cover 60.

  The cylinder 20, the end plate members 30, 40, 50, the muffler covers 60, 70, and the partition member 71 are integrally fixed by a fixing member such as a bolt. Further, the end plate member 30 is fixed to the sealed container 10 by welding or the like. Thereby, the compression element of the rotary compressor is fixed to the hermetic container 10.

  One end of the shaft 1 </ b> A is supported by end plate members 30 and 40. That is, the shaft 1A is cantilevered. One end portion (support end side) of the shaft 1A enters the cylinder chambers 21A and 22A.

  Upper and lower eccentric pins 90 (91, 92) are attached to the shaft 1A. The upper eccentric pin 91 is provided so as to be located in the cylinder chamber 21A. Further, the lower eccentric pin 92 is provided so as to be located in the cylinder chamber 22A. The rollers 100 (101, 102) are fitted into the upper and lower eccentric pins 90, respectively. Therefore, the upper roller 101 revolves in the cylinder chamber 21A, and the lower roller 102 revolves in the cylinder chamber 22A. By the revolving motion of the rollers 101 and 102, the refrigerant gas is compressed in the cylinder chambers 21A and 22A. The upper and lower eccentric pins 91 and 92 are formed so that their phases are shifted by 180 ° with respect to the rotation axis of the shaft 1A.

Next, the compression action in the cylinder 22 will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 2, the cylinder chamber 22A is partitioned into a suction chamber 212A (low pressure chamber) and a discharge chamber 212B (high pressure chamber) by a roller 102 and a blade 112 provided integrally with the roller 102. The suction pipe 3 communicates with the suction chamber 212A, and the discharge port communicates with the discharge chamber 212B. Two semi-cylindrical bushes 112A are in close contact with both surfaces of the blade 112. The bush 112 </ b> A is held by the cylinder 22. Thereby, the cylinder chamber 22A is sealed. Note that lubrication with the lubricating oil 5 is performed between the blade 112 and the bush 112 </ b> A and between the bush 112 </ b> A and the cylinder 22.

  Since the eccentric pin 92 is eccentric with respect to the central axis 1A0 of the shaft 1A, the eccentric pin 92 rotates eccentrically with the rotation of the shaft 1A. As a result, the roller 102 revolves while contacting the inner surface of the cylinder chamber 22A. As the roller 102 revolves in the cylinder chamber 22A, the blade 112 moves forward and backward while being sandwiched between the two bushes 112A. As a result, the low-pressure refrigerant gas is sucked into the suction chamber 212A from the suction pipe 3, the gas is compressed in the discharge chamber 212B, and the high-pressure refrigerant gas is discharged from the discharge port. The refrigerant gas discharged from the discharge port is discharged to the outside of the muffler cover 60 after passing through the muffler chambers 70A and 60A.

  FIG. 2 shows a state in which the blade 112 protrudes most into the cylinder chamber 22A. In this state, the suction chamber 212A is located on the left side (suction pipe side) in FIG. 2 with respect to the plane S2 passing through the center of the blade 112 and the central axis 1A0 of the shaft 1A, and the discharge chamber 212B is on the plane S2. On the other hand, it is located on the right side (discharge port side) in FIG.

  The refrigerant gas sucked into the suction chamber 212A from the suction pipe 3 is in a low temperature and low pressure state. On the other hand, the refrigerant gas discharged from the discharge port to the muffler chamber 70A is in a high temperature and high pressure state. Heat exchange is performed between the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant gas and the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas through the end plate member 40 that partitions the cylinder chamber 22A and the muffler chamber 70A. With this heat exchange, there is a concern that the refrigerant gas sucked into the cylinder chamber 22A is heated and the volumetric efficiency is lowered.

  FIG. 3 is a view showing the end plate member 40. As shown in FIG. 3, the end plate member 40 has a discharge port 40A that communicates with the cylinder chamber 22A, a communication hole 40B that communicates with the muffler chamber 70A, and a bolt hole 40C through which a bolt is inserted. Further, a discharge valve 132 for opening and closing the discharge port 40A is attached to the end plate member 40. The discharge valve 132 is fixed by a bolt or a rivet at the fixing portion 132A. The refrigerant gas in the muffler chamber 70A flows into the muffler chamber 60A through the communication hole 40B.

  FIG. 4 is a view showing the partition member 71. In FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 to be described later, for convenience of illustration and description, a portion corresponding to the stagnation space 71A is hatched.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the partition member 71 is a member formed by pressing a flat plate-like member, and is provided at a position where the bulge for forming the stagnation space 71A and the discharge valve 132 are attached. The formed opening 71B, a communication hole 71C communicating with the communication hole 40B, and a bolt hole 71D communicating with the bolt hole 40C. The partition member 71 is formed with passages 711 and 712 that allow the inside and the outside of the stagnation space 71A to communicate with each other. The passages 711 and 712 are formed, for example, by providing a hole in the partition member 71. Instead of this, for example, a notch is provided in the partition member 71, or between the partition member 71 and the end plate member 40. It may be formed by providing a gap. In other words, any structure can be applied as long as the refrigerant gas can travel inside and outside the stagnation space 71A. In the example of FIG. 4, the passage cross-sectional area of the passage 711 is formed smaller than the cross-sectional area of the discharge port 40A, and the passage cross-sectional area of the passage 712 is formed smaller than the cross-sectional area of the discharge port 40A. Yes.

  FIG. 5 is a view showing a modified example of the partition member 71. Referring to FIG. 5, in this modification, the passage 711 on the side close to the discharge port 40A is omitted, and only the passage 712 on the side close to the communication hole 71C is provided.

  FIG. 6 is a view showing the muffler cover 70. As shown in FIG. 6, the muffler cover 70 is a member formed by pressing a flat plate-like member, and a bulge for forming the muffler chamber 70 </ b> A and bolts communicating with the bolt holes 40 </ b> C and 71 </ b> D. Hole 70B.

  The partition member 71 and the muffler cover 70 are fixed to the end plate member 40 by inserting bolts into the bolt holes 40C, 71D, and 70B shown in FIGS. As a result, a muffler chamber 70A into which the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas flows from the discharge port 40A and a stagnation space 71A in the muffler chamber 70A where the high-temperature and high-pressure gas hardly flows are formed.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the muffler chamber 70A is formed so as to surround the central axis 1A0 of the shaft 1A over the entire circumference. Further, as shown in FIG. 1, the stagnation space 71A is formed in a part of the height direction (vertical direction in FIG. 1) of the muffler chamber 70A. By forming the stagnation space 71A in a part in the height direction of the muffler chamber 70A, it is possible to suppress the deterioration of the flow of the refrigerant gas in the muffler chamber 70A and reduce overcompression.

  The stagnation space 71A is provided on the suction pipe 3 side with respect to the plane S2. That is, the stagnation space 71A is located in a portion overlapping the suction chamber 212A (see FIG. 2) in the cylinder chamber 22A. By forming such a stagnation space 71A, it becomes difficult for the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas discharged into the muffler chamber 70A to pass through the portion of the cylinder chamber 22A that overlaps the suction chamber 212A, and the high-temperature and high-pressure in the muffler chamber 70A. Heat exchange between the gas and the low-temperature and low-pressure gas just taken into the cylinder chamber 22A is suppressed. As a result, a decrease in volumetric efficiency is suppressed.

  As described above, by forming the stagnation space 71A in the muffler chamber 70A, heating of the refrigerant gas sucked into the cylinder chamber 22A is suppressed, and a decrease in volumetric efficiency is suppressed. On the other hand, when vacuuming the sealed container 10 during assembly or maintenance of the rotary compressor, if the air in the stagnation space 71A does not escape, air remains in the sealed container 10 and the reliability of the rotary compressor is increased. There is a problem that decreases.

  In the present embodiment, the passages 711 and 712 for communicating the inside and outside of the stagnation space 71A are formed, so that the stagnation space 71A communicates with the other spaces in the sealed container 10, and the inside of the stagnation space 71A is evacuated. The air easily escapes and air is suppressed from remaining in the sealed container 10. As a result, the reliability of the rotary compressor is improved.

  Further, as described above, by setting the passage cross-sectional area of the passages 711 and 712 to be smaller than the cross-sectional area of the discharge port 40A, while ensuring a discharge path for air from the stagnation space 71A during evacuation, During operation of the rotary compressor, it is possible to suppress the refrigerant gas discharged from the discharge port 40A from flowing into the stagnation space 71A.

  Further, as in the example of FIG. 5, by forming the passage 712 only on the side farther from the discharge port 40A with respect to the stagnation space 71A, the discharge is performed from the discharge port 40A during the operation of the rotary compressor as described above. It is possible to prevent the refrigerant gas from flowing into the stagnation space 71A.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the stagnation space 71A is formed by covering the end plate member 40 with a partition member 71 having a bulge. By doing so, the stagnation space 71A can be formed in the muffler chamber 70A without performing complicated processing on the end plate member 40 and the muffler cover 70.

  7 and 8 are views showing further modifications of the partition member 71, and FIG. 9 is a longitudinal sectional view showing a state in which the partition member 71 shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 is attached to the end plate member 40. FIG. It is. The partition member 71 shown in FIGS. 7 to 9 is integrally formed by sintering or casting. Even in such a partition member 71, similarly to the partition member 71 shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, it is possible to form passages 711 and 712 to suppress air from remaining in the sealed container 10. Is possible.

  In the above example, the stagnation space 71A and the other part of the muffler chamber 70A communicate with each other by the passages 711 and 712. However, the passages 711 and 712 are other than the stagnation space 71A and the muffler chamber 70A in the sealed container 10. It may communicate with the space.

  The above contents are summarized as follows. That is, the rotary compressor according to the present embodiment includes a sealed container 10 as an “outer shell body”, a cylinder 22 provided in the sealed container 10, a cylinder 22, and a cylinder chamber 22 A together with the cylinder 22. An end plate member 40 having a discharge port 40A for discharging and discharging refrigerant gas from the cylinder chamber 22A is attached to the opposite side of the cylinder 22 with respect to the end plate member 40, and communicates with the cylinder chamber 22A via the discharge port 40A. A muffler cover 70 that forms a muffler chamber 70A together with the end plate member 40, a blade 112 supported by the cylinder 22 so as to protrude into the cylinder chamber 22A, and the cylinder chamber 22A together with the blade 112 provided in the cylinder chamber 22A. Is divided into a refrigerant gas suction chamber 212A and a refrigerant gas discharge chamber 212B, and the cylinder chamber 2 And a roller 102 which revolves around the central axis of the A (central axis 1A0 of the shaft 1A). The partition member 71 as a “barrier portion” provided in the muffler chamber 70 </ b> A forms a stagnation space 71 </ b> A that is partitioned from other portions in the muffler chamber 70 </ b> A on the end plate member 40. The stagnation space 71A is located on the suction chamber 212A side with respect to the plane S2 passing through the center of the blade 112 and the central axis 1A0 in the state of most protrusion in the cylinder chamber 22A. And the passage 711,712 which connects 71A of stagnation space and the other part in the muffler chamber 70A is formed.

That is, the stagnation space 61A is located in a portion overlapping the suction chamber 211A (see FIG. 11) in the cylinder chamber 21A. The high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas discharged from the discharge port 30A to the muffler chamber 60A flows toward the hole 60B and flows out of the muffler chamber 60A through the hole 60B. Here, the formation of the stagnation space 61A as described above makes it difficult for the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas to pass through the portion of the cylinder chamber 21A that overlaps the suction chamber 211A, and the high-temperature and high-pressure gas and the cylinder in the muffler chamber 60A. Heat exchange with the low-temperature and low-pressure gas just sucked into the chamber 21A is suppressed. As a result, a decrease in volumetric efficiency is suppressed.

  FIG. 13 is a cross-sectional view of the vicinity of the muffler chamber 70A. In FIG. 13, for convenience of illustration and description, a portion corresponding to the stagnation space 71 </ b> A is hatched, and the muffler cover 70 is omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 13, a discharge valve 132 that opens and closes a refrigerant gas discharge port from the cylinder chamber 22 </ b> A is attached to the end plate member 40. The refrigerant gas in the muffler chamber 70A flows into the muffler chamber 80A through the communication hole 40B.

  Similarly to the upper muffler chamber 60A, the lower muffler chamber 70A is formed so as to surround the entire circumference of the central axis 1A0 of the shaft 1A. Further, also in the lower muffler chamber 70 </ b> A, the stagnation space 71 </ b> A is formed between the two barrier portions 122. The two barrier portions 122 are each formed integrally with the end plate member 40 and are formed so as to protrude downward from the lower surface of the end plate member 40. Further, the barrier portion 122 is formed so as to extend from the boss portion 42 located at the center portion of the end plate member 40 toward the radially outer side of the end plate member 40. By doing in this way, the barrier part 122 functions also as a rib which reinforces the end plate member 40.

  The barrier portion 122 is formed with passages 1221 and 1222 that allow the inside and the outside of the stagnation space 61A to communicate with each other. The passages 1221 and 1222 are formed, for example, by providing a hole in the barrier portion 122. Instead, for example, a notch is provided in the barrier portion 122, or the barrier portion 122 and the muffler cover 70 are provided. It may be formed by providing a gap. In other words, any structure can be applied as long as the refrigerant gas can travel inside and outside the stagnation space 71A.

  The stagnation space 71A is provided on the suction pipe 3 side with respect to the plane S2. That is, the stagnation space 71A is located in a portion overlapping the suction chamber 212A (see FIG. 11) in the cylinder chamber 22A. By forming such a stagnation space 71A, it becomes difficult for the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas discharged into the muffler chamber 70A to pass through the portion of the cylinder chamber 22A that overlaps the suction chamber 212A, and the high-temperature and high-pressure in the muffler chamber 70A. Heat exchange between the gas and the low-temperature and low-pressure gas just taken into the cylinder chamber 22A is suppressed. As a result, a decrease in volumetric efficiency is suppressed.

  Also in the present embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the stagnation spaces 61A, 71A and the other spaces in the sealed container 10 are communicated with each other so that the air in the stagnation spaces 61A, 71A is evacuated. It becomes easy to escape, and air is suppressed from remaining in the sealed container 10. As a result, the reliability of the rotary compressor is improved.

  In the example of FIGS. 12 and 13, an example in which the barrier portions 121 and 122 are provided integrally with the end plate members 30 and 40 so as to protrude from the end plate members 30 and 40 has been described. The muffler covers 60 and 70 may be integrally provided so as to protrude from the muffler covers 60 and 70.

  In the first and second embodiments, the rotary compressor provided with two cylinders has been described. However, the idea of the present invention can naturally be applied to a rotary compressor having one cylinder.

  In the first and second embodiments described above, the rotary compressor in which the blade and the roller are integrated has been described. However, the idea of the present invention is that the rotary compressor in which the blade and the roller are formed separately. However, it is naturally applicable.

  Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the embodiments disclosed this time should be considered as illustrative in all points and not restrictive. The scope of the present invention is defined by the terms of the claims, and is intended to include any modifications within the scope and meaning equivalent to the terms of the claims.
