Description

  The present invention relates to a rotary compressor used in an air conditioner or a refrigerator.

  Conventional rotary compressors form a cylinder chamber by fixing a bearing plate to the end of a cylinder, and a discharge port is formed in the bearing plate so that a part of the opening overlaps the cylinder chamber. A notch was formed to communicate with the cylinder chamber. And the area of a notch was set to 20%-60% with respect to the area of the discharge port of the part which does not overlap with a cylinder chamber (for example, refer patent document 1).

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-103275

  In the conventional rotary compressor, there is a portion of the discharge port that does not overlap both the cylinder chamber and the notch. Therefore, in the portion of the discharge port that overlaps the notch, the fluid flows from the cylinder chamber through the notch taper and gradually spreads and flows into the discharge port, so noise and pressure caused by the fluid inflow to the discharge port The occurrence of fluctuation is suppressed. However, in the portion of the discharge port that does not overlap with the notch, the fluid flows along the inner peripheral wall surface of the cylinder chamber and is prevented from spreading and flows into the discharge port. At this time, the passage area of the fluid increases by the area of the portion of the discharge port that does not overlap with both the cylinder chamber and the notch when it flows into the discharge port. Therefore, the fluid flowing into the discharge port with the spread suppressed is rapidly expanded, and the fluid is separated at the enlarged portion. As a result, a vortex is generated, or the fluid peeled off in the middle of the pipe line of the discharge port is reattached, and fluid turbulence occurs. In this fluid turbulence occurrence part, fluid noise is emitted and sound is emitted, or pressure fluctuations are propagated through the fluid, which becomes an excitation force that vibrates the inside of the compressor and the discharge pipes from the compressor. Will occur. In particular, the greater the inflow speed of the fluid into the discharge port, the greater the pressure fluctuation and the greater the vibration noise.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and an object of the present invention is to obtain a rotary compressor that can reduce fluid noise and vibration noise caused by fluid inflow into a discharge hole.

  A rotary compressor according to the present invention includes a hermetic shell, a compression mechanism portion housed in the hermetic shell, and a motor housed in the hermetic shell and driving the compression mechanism portion. Compress in part. The compression mechanism section is connected to the cylinder having a cylinder chamber, a main bearing and a sub-bearing disposed so as to close the cylinder chamber, and the motor, and is inserted through the cylinder chamber to A drive shaft that is pivotally supported by the main bearing and the sub-bearing, a rolling piston that is attached to the drive shaft and is disposed in the cylinder chamber so as to be eccentrically rotatable, and an outer peripheral wall surface of the rolling piston At least one of the main bearing and the sub-bearing so as to communicate the vane partitioning the space defined by the cylinder chamber and the rolling piston into a suction side space and a discharge side space, and the discharge side space and the outside. And a discharge hole formed in the bearing. The discharge hole is formed so that the entire opening thereof faces the vane side of the discharge side space so as to overlap the cylinder chamber when viewed from the axial direction of the drive shaft.

  According to the present invention, since all of the openings of the discharge holes are formed so as to overlap the cylinder chamber when viewed from the axial direction of the drive shaft, when the fluid flows into the discharge holes from the cylinder chamber, the flow path There is no increase in cross-sectional area. Therefore, since the fluid flows from the inlet of the discharge hole without rapidly expanding, occurrence of separation due to the rapid expansion of the fluid is suppressed. Therefore, the generation of vortices at the inlet of the discharge hole is suppressed, or the separated fluid does not adhere again in the middle of the discharge hole, and fluid turbulence is reduced, so that fluid noise and vibration noise are reduced.

FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line VI-VI in FIG. 5. Here, the drive shaft is omitted in FIG.

  1 to 6, the rotary compressor 100 includes a vertical hermetic shell 1. The motor 2 is disposed above the sealed shell 1, and the compression mechanism 3 is disposed below the motor 2. The motor 2 and the compression mechanism unit 3 are interlocked and connected via a drive shaft 4 whose vertical direction is the axial direction. A rolling piston 16 is attached to the drive shaft 4 eccentrically with respect to the central axis of the drive shaft 4.

  The motor 2 includes a stator 10 formed in a ring shape, and a rotor 11 supported so as to be able to rotate inside the stator 10. One end of the drive shaft 4 is press-fitted into the axial center position of the rotor 11.

  The compression mechanism section 3 is attached to the upper surface of the cylinder 12 so as to close the flat ring-shaped cylinder 12 having a predetermined thickness through which the cylinder chamber 13 having a circular cross section passes and the upper end side opening of the cylinder chamber 13 is closed. The main bearing 14, the auxiliary bearing 15 attached to the lower surface of the cylinder 12 so as to close the lower end side opening of the cylinder chamber 13, the rolling piston 16 disposed in the cylinder chamber 13, and the outer periphery of the rolling piston 16 The vane 18 is in contact with the wall surface and partitions the space 17 formed by the cylinder chamber 13 and the rolling piston 16 into the suction side space 17a and the discharge side space 17b, and the vane 18 is pressed against the outer peripheral wall surface of the rolling piston 16. The cylinder 12 is connected so that the spring 19 to be biased communicates with the vicinity of the vane 18 of the suction side space 17a and the outer periphery of the cylinder 12. The main bearing 14 is formed in the main bearing 14 so that the formed suction hole 20 communicates with the vicinity of the vane 18 of the discharge side space 17b and the upper side of the main bearing 14 and does not overlap the cylinder 12. And a discharge hole 21 having a circular cross section having a hole center parallel to the axis. The cross section of the discharge hole is a cross section orthogonal to the axis of the main bearing 14.

  Further, a notch 22 as a safety mechanism for preventing liquid compression when the liquid is mixed with the fluid is formed in a tapered shape on the upper end side of the cylinder 12 so as to face the vicinity of the vane 18 of the discharge side space 17b. Yes. A leaf spring valve 23 is disposed in the main bearing 14 so as to close the outlet of the discharge hole 21, and when the fluid rises to a predetermined pressure due to compression, the valve 23 is pushed up and discharged. Yes.

  An eccentric shaft portion 4 a is provided on the other end side of the drive shaft 4. The drive shaft 4 has the eccentric shaft portion 4 a accommodated in the cylinder chamber 13 and is rotatably supported by the main bearing 14 and the auxiliary bearing 15. The rolling piston 16 is formed in a cylindrical shape having a shaft insertion hole 16 a concentrically and having a height equivalent to that of the cylinder 12. The rolling piston 16 is fitted in the shaft fitting hole 16 a with the eccentric shaft portion 4 a and is mounted eccentrically with respect to the shaft center of the drive shaft 4. The rolling piston 16 is accommodated in the cylinder chamber 13. It is designed to be eccentrically rotated by the rotation of the drive shaft 4 while being in close contact with each other.

  A suction pipe 5 for sucking fluid is connected to the suction side space 17 a via a suction hole 20, and a discharge pipe 6 for discharging compressed fluid is provided on the upper portion of the sealed shell 1. An accumulator 7 is connected to the suction pipe 5.

Next, the operation of the rotary compressor 100 configured as described above will be described. In addition, as a fluid applied to the rotary compressor 100, there exist natural refrigerant | coolants, such as air, a fluorocarbon refrigerant | coolant, and a carbon dioxide, a hydrocarbon, for example.
When electric power is supplied to the motor 2 and the motor 2 is driven, the drive shaft 4 pivotally supported by the main bearing 14 and the auxiliary bearing 15 is rotationally driven. Then, the rolling piston 16 rotates eccentrically in the cylinder chamber 13 while being in close contact with the inner peripheral wall surface of the cylinder chamber 13. At this time, the upper and lower surfaces of the rolling piston 16 are sealed with lubricating oil.
The rotation of the rolling piston 16 increases the volume of the suction side space 17a, and the fluid is sucked into the suction side space 17a through the accumulator 7, the suction pipe 5, and the suction hole 20. At the same time, the volume of the discharge side space 17b decreases, and the fluid in the discharge side space 17b is compressed. When the compressed fluid rises to a predetermined pressure, the valve 23 is lifted, discharged from the discharge hole 21 into the sealed shell 1, and discharged from the discharge pipe 6.

According to the first embodiment, the discharge hole 21 is provided in the main bearing 14 so that the entire opening thereof overlaps the cylinder chamber 13 when viewed from the axial direction of the drive shaft 4. Is discharged from the discharge side space 17b through the discharge hole 21 without changing the flow path area. That is, there is no enlargement of the flow path area when the fluid flows into the discharge hole 21 from the inlet of the discharge hole 21. Therefore, the rapid expansion of the fluid that occurs when a part of the discharge hole 21 is configured to overlap the cylinder 12 is eliminated, and the occurrence of fluid separation at the inlet of the discharge hole 21 is suppressed. Thereby, generation | occurrence | production of the vortex resulting from peeling of a fluid, or the reattachment of the peeled fluid is suppressed, and generation | occurrence | production of fluid disturbance is suppressed. As a result, fluid noise at the inlet of the discharge hole 21 and vibration noise due to pressure fluctuation are reduced.
Further, since the discharge hole 21 is formed in a circular cross section, the discharge hole 21 can be easily formed.

  Next, FIG. 7 shows a result obtained by numerical analysis of the relationship between the rotation angle of the rolling piston 16 and the average speed of the compressed fluid in the discharge hole 21 in the rotary compressor 100. The fluid used was R404A refrigerant, and the static pressure during discharge was 3.1 MPa. The rotation angle of the rolling piston 16 is based on the position of the vane 18 and is the angle from the reference position to the contact position between the rolling piston 16 and the inner peripheral wall surface of the cylinder chamber 13. The average speed of the compressed fluid was determined by dividing the volume flow rate of the compressed fluid to be discharged by the cross-sectional area of the discharge hole 21.

  From FIG. 7, it can be seen that the discharge starts around the rotation angle of 220 deg, reaches the maximum speed around 255 deg, and then the flow velocity decreases. Note that the rotation angle of the rolling piston 16 at which the compressed fluid discharged from the discharge hole 21 reaches the maximum speed varies depending on the type of fluid, the spring constant of the valve 23, and the like.

  Here, the discharge hole 21 includes a rolling piston 16 in which all of the openings of the discharge hole 21 overlap with the cylinder chamber 13 when viewed from the axial direction of the main bearing 14 and rotate to a position where the discharge fluid reaches a maximum speed. It is preferable that the main bearing 14 be formed so as to face the vicinity of the vane 18 of the discharge side space 17b so as not to overlap.

  Further, the fluid noise generated when the fluid flows through the discharge hole 21 is proportional to the fourth power to the eighth power of the flow velocity. Increasing the cross-sectional area of the discharge hole 21 leads to a decrease in the average flow velocity of the fluid in the discharge hole 21 and can reduce fluid noise generated by the fluid flow. Therefore, from the viewpoint of increasing the cross-sectional area of the discharge hole 21, the discharge hole 21 is formed so that the opening of the discharge hole 21 is in contact with the inner peripheral wall surface of the cylinder chamber 13 when viewed from the axial direction of the drive shaft 4. Is preferred. Furthermore, it is particularly preferable to form the discharge hole 21 so that the opening of the discharge hole 21 contacts the outer peripheral wall surface of the rolling piston 16 rotated to a position where the discharge fluid reaches the maximum speed when viewed from the axial direction of the drive shaft 4. .

The main bearing 14 is formed so as to face the vicinity.
The second embodiment is configured in the same manner as in the first embodiment except that a discharge hole 25 is formed instead of the discharge hole 21.

Also in the second embodiment, since all the openings of the discharge holes 25 are formed in the main bearing 14 so as to overlap the cylinder chamber 13 when viewed from the axial direction of the main bearing 14, the first embodiment described above. Has the same effect as.
Further, in the second embodiment, since the discharge hole 25 is formed in an elliptical cross section, the cross sectional area of the discharge hole 25 can be made larger than the discharge hole 21 having a circular cross section, and the fluid noise generated by the flow of the fluid Can be further reduced.

In the second embodiment as well, the discharge hole 25 does not overlap with the rolling piston 16 whose opening is rotated to a position where the discharge fluid reaches the maximum speed when viewed from the axial direction of the drive shaft 4. The main bearing 14 is preferably formed so as to face the vicinity of the vane 18 of the discharge side space 17b.
Further, from the viewpoint of increasing the cross-sectional area of the discharge hole 25, the discharge hole 25 is formed so that the opening of the discharge hole 25 is in contact with the inner peripheral wall surface of the cylinder chamber 13 when viewed from the axial direction of the drive shaft 4. Is preferred. Furthermore, it is particularly preferable to form the discharge hole 25 so that the opening of the discharge hole 25 is in contact with the outer peripheral wall surface of the rolling piston 16 rotated to a position where the discharge fluid reaches the maximum speed when viewed from the axial direction of the drive shaft 4. .

Embodiment 3 FIG.
FIG. 9 is a top view showing a compression mechanism section in a rotary compressor according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. Here, in FIG. 9, the drive shaft is omitted.
In FIG. 9, the discharge hole 26 has an arc of a radius of curvature substantially matching the radius of curvature of the outer peripheral wall 26 a and the outer peripheral wall of the rolling piston 16. An inner periphery 26b, and the radial width between the outer periphery 26a and the inner periphery 26b gradually increases in the rotational direction and is formed in a cross-sectional shape elongated in the circumferential direction. Then, the outer periphery 26a is placed along the inner peripheral wall surface of the cylinder chamber 13 so that all the openings of the discharge holes 26 overlap the cylinder chamber 13 when viewed from the axial center direction of the main bearing 14, and the discharge side space 17b. The main bearing 14 is formed so as to face the vicinity of the vane 18. Here, the discharge hole 26 is disposed so that the radial width between the outer periphery 26 a and the inner periphery 26 b gradually increases toward the vane 18.
The third embodiment is configured in the same manner as in the first embodiment except that a discharge hole 26 is formed instead of the discharge hole 21.

Also in the third embodiment, since all the openings of the discharge holes 26 are formed in the main bearing 14 so as to overlap the cylinder chamber 13 when viewed from the axial direction of the main bearing 14, the first embodiment described above. Has the same effect as.
In the third embodiment, the discharge hole 26 substantially coincides with the curvature radius of the outer periphery 26 a formed by an arc having a curvature radius substantially matching the curvature radius of the inner peripheral wall surface of the cylinder chamber 13 and the outer peripheral wall surface of the rolling piston 16. An inner periphery 26b made of an arc of curvature radius, the radial width between the outer periphery 26a and the inner periphery 26b gradually increases in the rotational direction, and is formed in a cross-sectional shape elongated in the circumferential direction. Therefore, the cross-sectional area of the discharge hole 26 can be made larger than that of the discharge hole 21 having a circular cross section, and the fluid noise generated by the fluid flow can be further reduced.

In the third embodiment as well, the discharge hole 26 does not overlap the rolling piston 16 whose opening is rotated to a position where the discharge fluid reaches the maximum speed when viewed from the axial direction of the drive shaft 4. The main bearing 14 is preferably formed so as to face the vicinity of the vane 18 of the discharge side space 17b.
In the third embodiment, the inner periphery 26b of the discharge hole 26 is formed in an arc having a curvature radius that substantially matches the curvature radius of the outer peripheral wall surface of the rolling piston 16. The present invention is not limited to an arc having a radius of curvature that substantially matches the radius of curvature of the outer peripheral wall surface of the piston 16.

  From the viewpoint of increasing the cross-sectional area of the discharge hole 26, the discharge hole 26 is formed so that the opening of the discharge hole 26 is in contact with the inner peripheral wall surface of the cylinder chamber 13 when viewed from the axial direction of the drive shaft 4. Is preferred. Furthermore, it is particularly preferable to form the discharge hole 26 so that the opening of the discharge hole 26 contacts the outer peripheral wall surface of the rolling piston 16 rotated to a position where the discharged fluid reaches the maximum speed when viewed from the axial direction of the drive shaft 4. . At this time, the outer periphery 26 a of the discharge hole 26 matches the inner peripheral wall surface of the cylinder chamber 13, and the inner periphery 26 b matches the outer peripheral wall surface of the rolling piston 16.

Embodiment 4 FIG.
10 is a top view of a main bearing in a rotary compressor according to Embodiment 4 of the present invention as viewed from the axial direction, FIG. 11 is a sectional view taken along the line XI-XI in FIG. 10, and FIG. 12 is an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a flow of compressed fluid discharged from a discharge hole in the rotary compressor according to FIG. 4. In FIG. 10, the drive shaft, the valve, and the stop valve are omitted.

  10 and 11, the discharge hole 27 has a radius of curvature substantially matching the curvature radius of the outer periphery 27a formed of an arc having a curvature radius substantially matching the curvature radius of the inner peripheral wall surface of the cylinder chamber and the outer peripheral wall surface of the rolling piston. An inner periphery 27b made of an arc is formed, and the radial width between the outer periphery 26a and the inner periphery 26b gradually increases in the rotational direction, and is formed in a cross-sectional shape elongated in the circumferential direction. All of the openings of the discharge holes 27 are formed in the main bearing 14 so as to overlap the cylinder chamber when viewed from the axial center direction of the main bearing 14. Further, the valve seat 28 protrudes from the main bearing 14 in an annular shape so as to surround the discharge side opening at a position away from the discharge side opening edge of the discharge hole 27.

The main bearing 14 configured in this manner is incorporated into the compression mechanism so that the outer periphery 27a of the discharge hole 27 is along the inner peripheral wall surface of the cylinder chamber and faces the vicinity of the vane in the discharge side space. Here, the discharge hole 27 is disposed such that the radial width between the outer periphery 27a and the inner periphery 27b gradually increases toward the vane.
Other configurations are the same as those in the third embodiment.

  Here, the flow of the fluid discharged from the discharge hole 27 in the fourth embodiment will be described in comparison with the comparative example. In the comparative example, as shown in FIG. 13 and FIG. 14, the valve seat 40 is in an annular shape so that its inner periphery is in contact with the discharge side opening edge of the discharge hole 27 and surrounds the discharge side opening. It protrudes from the bearing 14.

  First, the leaf spring valve 23 is attached to the main bearing 14 so as to abut the valve seats 28 and 40 and close the discharge hole 27. The stop valve 29 is attached to the main bearing 14 so as to have a predetermined gap with respect to the valve seats 28 and 40. When the fluid is compressed and rises to a predetermined pressure, the valve 23 is pushed up until it abuts against the stop valve 29 while being elastically deformed.

  Therefore, in the comparative example, the compressed fluid passes through the discharge hole 27, collides with the valve 23, is bent, passes between the valve 23 and the valve seat 40, as indicated by an arrow in FIG. Furthermore, it contracts and speed increases. Thereby, the turbulence 41 generated on the downstream side of the valve seat 40 is increased, and the fluid noise generated in the valve seat 40 is increased.

  On the other hand, in the fourth embodiment, the compressed fluid passes through the discharge hole 27 and is bent by colliding with the valve 23 as shown by an arrow in FIG. Pass through. At this time, since the valve seat 28 is separated from the discharge side opening edge of the discharge hole 27, the valve seat 28 and the valve seat 28 are compared with the comparative example in which the valve seat 40 is in contact with the discharge side opening edge of the discharge hole 27. The distance from the end 23a of the bulb 23 is shortened. Therefore, after the fluid flows between the valve 23 and the valve seat 28, the fluid immediately reaches the end 23a of the valve 23, and the flow path widens. As a result, the fluid flowing between the valve 23 and the valve seat 28 tends to contract, but the flow path immediately expands and the increase in speed is suppressed, so that the downstream of the valve seat 28 is compared with the comparative example. The turbulence 30 generated on the side is reduced, and the fluid noise generated in the valve seat 28 is reduced.

  In the fourth embodiment, since the valve seat 28 is not in contact with the discharge side opening edge of the discharge hole 27, the valve seat 40 is discharged compared to the comparative example in contact with the discharge side opening edge of the discharge hole 27. The flow path at the discharge side opening edge of the hole 27 becomes wider. For example, when the height of the valve seat 40 is 0.1 mm and the distance between the valve seat 40 and the stop valve 29 is on the order of 2.0 mm, the valve seat 40 is omitted, and the discharge side opening of the discharge hole 27 is thus achieved. The flow path at the edge is about 5% larger. Therefore, in Embodiment 4, the speed of the fluid discharged from the discharge hole 27 is slower than in the comparative example. As a result, the velocity of the fluid flowing between the valve 23 and the valve seat 28 is reduced, the turbulence 30 generated on the downstream side of the valve seat 28 is reduced, and the fluid noise generated in the valve seat 28 is reduced.

  In the fourth embodiment, the annular valve seat 28 is separated from the discharge side opening edge of the discharge hole 27 and surrounds the discharge side opening, so that the discharge side opening of the valve seat 28 and the discharge hole 27 is provided. The distance between the edges is not constant. The distance here refers to the length of a perpendicular drawn from an arbitrary point of the valve seat 28 to the outer shape of the discharge hole 27 in the top view. Further, since the discharge of the compressor is intermittent once per rotation, a time difference occurs in the occurrence of the turbulence 30 on the downstream side of the valve seat 28, the energy is dispersed in time, and the fluid resulting from the turbulence 30 Noise is reduced. The distance between the valve seat 28 and the discharge side opening edge of the discharge hole 27 is the discharge side opening of the discharge hole 27 in the direction in which the fluid that has passed through the discharge hole 27 collides with the valve 23 and flows. This is the distance from the edge to the valve seat 28.

Here, the results of measuring the fluid noise in the fourth embodiment and the comparative example are shown in FIG. The fluid to be compressed was air, the discharge pressure was 4.8 KPa, and the discharge flow rate was 5.3 m ³ / min.
As can be seen from FIG. 16, in the fourth embodiment, the result that the fluid noise can be reduced by 1.0 dB as compared with the comparative example was obtained.

  Also in the fourth embodiment, the discharge hole 27 has a radius of curvature substantially matching the radius of curvature of the outer periphery 27a formed of an arc having a radius of curvature substantially matching the radius of curvature of the inner peripheral wall surface of the cylinder chamber and the outer peripheral wall surface of the rolling piston. A radial width between the outer periphery 26a and the inner periphery 26b gradually increases in the rotational direction and is formed in a cross-sectional shape that is elongated in the circumferential direction. Since all of the openings of the discharge holes 27 are formed in the main bearing 14 so as to overlap the cylinder chamber when viewed from the axial center direction of the main bearing 14, the same effects as in the third embodiment are obtained.

According to the fourth embodiment, since the valve seat 28 is formed so as to be separated from the discharge side opening edge of the discharge hole 27 and surround the discharge side opening, the compressed fluid is discharged from the discharge hole 27. The discharge speed is reduced, and an increase in the fluid speed after passing between the valve seat 28 and the valve 23 is suppressed. Thereby, the turbulence 30 of the fluid generated downstream of the valve seat 28 is reduced, and the fluid noise can be reduced.
Further, since the valve seat 28 is formed so that the distance from the discharge side opening edge of the discharge hole 27 to the valve seat 28 is not constant, there is a time difference in the occurrence of the fluid turbulence 30 downstream of the valve seat 28. And fluid noise can be reduced.

  Further, since the valve seat 28 is formed in an annular shape, for example, the valve seat 28 is formed with high processing accuracy by polishing by rotation using an abrasive formed in a female die having a finished cross-sectional shape of the valve seat 28. can do. Therefore, when the valve 23 is closed, the generation of a gap between the valve seat 28 and the valve 23 is suppressed, so that sufficient compression can be performed and excellent performance can be ensured.

  Here, as another comparative example, as shown in FIG. 17, the valve seat 42 may be connected to the discharge side opening edge of the discharge hole 27 by a tapered surface or an R surface. Thus, it is apparent that the effect of reducing the fluid noise is greater when the valve seat 28 is formed away from the discharge side opening edge of the discharge hole 27.

In the fourth embodiment, the valve seat is formed in an annular shape. However, from the viewpoint of reducing fluid noise, the valve seat is formed away from the discharge side opening edge of the discharge hole. The shape of the valve seat is not limited to an annular shape.
Further, in the fourth embodiment, the discharge hole has a radius of curvature substantially matching the curvature radius of the outer periphery formed of an arc having a curvature radius substantially matching the curvature radius of the inner peripheral wall surface of the cylinder chamber and the outer periphery wall surface of the rolling piston. It is assumed that the hole is formed in a hole shape having an inner periphery made of an arc, but the hole shape of the discharge hole is not limited to this, for example, the cross-sectional circle or the elliptical cross-section in the first and second embodiments. The shape of the hole may be a discharge hole.

In each of the above embodiments, the notch is described as being provided in the compression mechanism. However, the present invention can be applied to a compression mechanism in which the notch is omitted. Is obtained.
Further, in each of the above embodiments, the eccentric shaft portion of the drive shaft is fitted into the shaft fitting hole in which the rolling piston is formed concentrically, and is attached to the outer fitting state. The rolling piston formed by shifting from the center of the rolling piston may be attached to the drive shaft without the eccentric shaft portion in an externally fitted state, and the rolling piston may be rotated eccentrically in conjunction with the rotation of the drive shaft. .

In each of the above embodiments, the main bearing is described as having a discharge hole. However, in the present invention, a discharge hole may be provided in the sub-bearing, or a discharge hole may be provided in the main bearing and the sub-bearing. It may be provided.
Further, in each of the above embodiments, the description has been made assuming that the present invention is applied to a rotary compressor having a vertical shell, but the present invention is limited to a rotary compressor having a vertical hermetic shell. Instead, for example, the present invention may be applied to a rotary compressor provided with a horizontal shell whose drive shaft is horizontal.
