  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a compressor used for an air conditioner, a cooling device, and the like generally includes a compression mechanism section and an electric motor section that drives a rear portion of the compressor in a casing, and compresses the refrigerant gas returned from the refrigeration cycle.

  However, in the conventional configuration, the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas compressed by the compression mechanism portion flows through the electric motor portion, so that the electric motor portion is heated by the refrigerant gas and causes a reduction in efficiency of the electric motor portion. It was.

  Also, through the passage provided on the outer periphery of the frame, the high-temperature discharge gas flows through the lower part of the compression mechanism unit, so the compression mechanism unit is heated, and in particular, the refrigerant gas in the low temperature state returned from the refrigeration cycle, Heat is received in the process of being sent to the compression chamber through the suction path. For this reason, the refrigerant gas has already expanded at the time of entering the compression chamber, and there has been a problem that the circulation rate is reduced due to the expansion of the refrigerant gas.

  Furthermore, when a lot of oil is contained in the refrigerant discharged from the discharge pipe, there is a problem that the cycle performance is deteriorated.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described conventional problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a compressor that realizes high efficiency of the motor unit, improvement of volumetric efficiency, and low oil circulation. .

  In the compressor according to the present invention, the oil separation mechanism section has a cylindrical space for rotating the refrigerant gas, an inflow section for flowing the refrigerant gas discharged from the compression mechanism section into the cylindrical space, and one container from the cylindrical space. A position in the inner space that has a delivery port for sending refrigerant gas from which oil has been separated and a discharge port for discharging the separated oil and part of the refrigerant gas from the cylindrical space, and that opposes the outlet of the discharge port And a motor protector that protects the stator coil of the motor and the motor.

  As a result, the refrigerant gas discharged from the discharge port directly collides with the motor protector, thereby improving the operational sensitivity of the motor protector, achieving higher efficiency of the motor part, improved volume efficiency, and lower oil circulation. A compressor with improved motor protection performance can be provided.

  According to the present invention, most of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas that is compressed by the compression mechanism and delivered from the oil separation mechanism is led to the one container inner space and discharged from the discharge pipe. Therefore, since most of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas does not pass through the electric motor part, the electric motor part is not heated by the refrigerant gas, and the efficiency of the electric motor part can be improved.

  In addition, according to the present invention, most of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas can be guided to the one container inner space, so that the heating of the compression mechanism portion in contact with the other container inner space can be suppressed. Heating can be suppressed and high volumetric efficiency in the compression chamber can be obtained.

  Further, according to the present invention, the oil separated by the oil separation mechanism is discharged together with the refrigerant gas to the other container space, so that the oil hardly stays in the cylindrical space. Therefore, the separated oil is blown up in the cylindrical space by the swirling refrigerant gas, and is not sent out together with the refrigerant gas from the outlet, so that stable oil separation can be performed. Furthermore, since the oil is not retained in the cylindrical space, the cylindrical space can be made small.

  Moreover, according to this invention, the sensitivity of the motor protector which operates with temperature is improved by making the oil discharged | emitted by the other container inner space collide with the motor protector provided in the stator coil of the electric motor. Thereby, the motor protection performance of the compressor can be improved.

  According to a first aspect of the present invention, an airtight container includes a compression mechanism portion that compresses the refrigerant gas and an electric motor portion that drives the compression mechanism portion. A compressor that is divided into a container inner space, provided with a discharge pipe that discharges refrigerant gas from one container inner space to the outside of the sealed container, and an electric motor part is disposed in the other container inner space, and is discharged from the compression mechanism part. Provided with an oil separation mechanism that separates oil from the refrigerant gas, and the oil separation mechanism that swirls the refrigerant gas, and an inflow portion that flows the refrigerant gas discharged from the compression mechanism into the cylindrical space And a discharge port for sending refrigerant gas from which oil has been separated from the cylindrical space to one container space, a discharge port for discharging the separated oil from the cylindrical space, and a position of the electric motor unit at a position facing the discharge port. Stator coil and electric It is to place a motor protector for protection.

  According to this configuration, most of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas that is compressed by the compression mechanism and delivered from the oil separation mechanism is led to the one container inner space and discharged from the discharge pipe. Therefore, since most of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas does not pass through the electric motor part, the electric motor part is not heated by the refrigerant gas, and the efficiency of the electric motor part can be improved.

  Further, according to this configuration, most of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas can be guided to the one container inner space, so that the heating of the compression mechanism portion in contact with the other container inner space can be suppressed. Heating can be suppressed and high volumetric efficiency in the compression chamber can be obtained.

  Further, according to this configuration, the oil separated by the oil separation mechanism is discharged together with the refrigerant gas from the discharge port located at the position facing the delivery port, so that the oil is mostly retained in the cylindrical space. Further, the refrigerant gas discharged from the discharge port directly collides with the motor protector provided on the stator. Therefore, the separated oil is blown up in the cylindrical space by the swirling refrigerant gas, and is not sent out together with the refrigerant gas from the outlet, so that stable oil separation can be performed.

  Furthermore, since the refrigerant gas directly collides with the motor protector operating at temperature, the sensitivity of the protection operation can be improved.

  According to a second aspect, in the first aspect, the compression mechanism section includes a fixed scroll, a turning scroll disposed to face the fixed scroll, and a main bearing member that supports a shaft that drives the turning scroll. And the cylindrical space is formed in the fixed scroll and the main bearing member.

  According to this configuration, by forming the oil separation mechanism portion in the compression mechanism portion, the path through which the refrigerant gas flows from the discharge port to the discharge pipe can be shortened, and the sealed container can be downsized. Further, according to this configuration, since the oil separated by the oil separation mechanism is discharged together with the refrigerant gas to the other container space, the oil hardly stays in the cylindrical space.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments.

(Embodiment 1)
FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a compressor according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the compressor according to the present embodiment includes a compression mechanism unit 10 that compresses refrigerant gas and an electric motor unit 20 that drives the compression mechanism unit 10 in the sealed container 1.

  The inside of the sealed container 1 is divided into one container inner space 31 and the other container inner space 32 by the compression mechanism unit 10. The electric motor unit 20 is disposed in the other container space 32. The other container space 32 is divided into a compression mechanism side space 33 and an oil storage side space 34 by the electric motor unit 20. The oil storage section 2 is arranged in the oil storage space 34.

  A suction tube 3 and a discharge tube 4 are fixed to the sealed container 1 by welding. The suction pipe 3 and the discharge pipe 4 lead to the outside of the sealed container 1 and are connected to members constituting the refrigeration cycle. The suction pipe 3 introduces a refrigerant gas from the outside of the sealed container 1, and the discharge pipe 4 guides the refrigerant gas from one container inner space 31 to the outside of the sealed container 1.

  The main bearing member 11 is fixed in the sealed container 1 by welding or shrink fitting, and supports the shaft 5. A fixed scroll 12 is bolted to the main bearing member 11. The orbiting scroll 13 that meshes with the fixed scroll 12 is sandwiched between the main bearing member 11 and the fixed scroll 12. The main bearing member 11, the fixed scroll 12, and the orbiting scroll 13 constitute a scroll-type compression mechanism unit 10.

  Between the orbiting scroll 13 and the main bearing member 11, a rotation restraint mechanism 14 such as an Oldham ring is provided. The rotation restraint mechanism 14 prevents the orbiting scroll 13 from rotating, and guides the orbiting scroll 13 to make a circular orbital motion. The orbiting scroll 13 is eccentrically driven by an eccentric shaft portion 5 a provided at the upper end of the shaft 5. By this eccentric drive, the compression chamber 15 formed between the fixed scroll 12 and the orbiting scroll 13 moves from the outer periphery toward the center, and compresses with a reduced volume.

  A suction path 16 is formed between the suction tube 3 and the compression chamber 15. The suction path 16 is provided in the fixed scroll 12. A discharge port 17 of the compression mechanism unit 10 is formed at the center of the fixed scroll 12. A reed valve 18 is provided at the discharge port 17. A muffler 19 that covers the discharge port 17 and the reed valve 18 is provided on one container inner space 31 side of the fixed scroll 12. The muffler 19 isolates the discharge port 17 from one container inner space 31. The refrigerant gas is sucked into the compression chamber 15 from the suction pipe 3 through the suction path 16. The refrigerant gas compressed in the compression chamber 15 is discharged into the muffler 19 from the discharge port 17. The reed valve 18 is pushed open when the refrigerant gas is discharged from the discharge port 17.

  A pump 6 is provided at the lower end of the shaft 5. The suction port of the pump 6 is disposed in the oil storage part 2 provided at the bottom of the sealed container 1. The pump 6 is driven by the shaft 5. Therefore, the oil in the oil storage section 2 can be reliably sucked up regardless of the pressure condition and the operating speed, and no oil runs out at the sliding section. The oil sucked up by the pump 6 is supplied to the compression mechanism 10 through an oil supply hole 7 formed in the shaft 5. If foreign matter is removed from the oil using an oil filter before or after the oil is sucked up by the pump 6, foreign matter can be prevented from being mixed into the compression mechanism unit 10, and further reliability can be improved.

  The pressure of the oil guided to the compression mechanism unit 10 is substantially the same as the discharge pressure of the refrigerant gas discharged from the discharge port 17 and also serves as a back pressure source for the orbiting scroll 13. As a result, the orbiting scroll 13 operates stably without leaving the fixed scroll 12 or hitting it. Further, part of the oil enters the fitting portion between the eccentric shaft portion 5a and the orbiting scroll 13 and the bearing portion 8 between the shaft 5 and the main bearing member 11 so as to obtain a clearance by the supply pressure and the own weight. Then, it is lubricated, then falls and returns to the oil storage section 2. A path 7 a is formed in the orbiting scroll 13, one end of the path 7 a opens to the high pressure region 35, and the other end of the path 7 a opens to the back pressure chamber 36. The rotation restraint mechanism 14 is disposed in the back pressure chamber 36.

  Accordingly, part of the oil supplied to the high pressure region 35 enters the back pressure chamber 36 through the path 7a. The oil that has entered the back pressure chamber 36 lubricates the thrust sliding portion and the sliding portion of the rotation restraint mechanism 14 and applies back pressure to the orbiting scroll 13 in the back pressure chamber 36.

  Next, the oil separation mechanism of the compressor according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. 2 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the main part of the compression mechanism in FIG. The compressor according to the present embodiment is provided with an oil separation mechanism 40 that separates oil from refrigerant gas discharged from the compression mechanism 10.

  The oil separation mechanism section 40 communicates the cylindrical space 41 for turning the refrigerant gas, the inflow section 42 that communicates the inside of the muffler 19 and the cylindrical space 41, and the cylindrical space 41 and one container inner space 31. It has the delivery port 43 and the discharge port 44 which connects the cylindrical space 41 and the other container internal space 32. The cylindrical space 41 includes a first cylindrical space 41 a formed in the fixed scroll 12 and a second cylindrical space 41 b formed in the main bearing member 11.

The inflow portion 42 communicates with the first cylindrical space 41a, and preferably the opening of the inflow portion 42 is the first.
Is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the upper end of the cylindrical space 41a. The inflow portion 42 causes the refrigerant gas discharged from the compression mechanism portion 10 to flow into the cylindrical space 41 from the muffler 19. The inflow portion 42 opens in the tangential direction with respect to the cylindrical space 41.

  The delivery port 43 is formed on the upper end side of the cylindrical space 41 and is formed at least on the side of the in-container space 31 with respect to the inflow portion 42. The delivery port 43 is preferably formed on the upper end surface of the first cylindrical space 41a. And the delivery port 43 sends out the refrigerant gas which isolate | separated oil from the cylindrical space 41 to the one container inner space 31.

  The discharge port 44 is formed on the lower end side of the cylindrical space 41 and is formed at least on the other container inner space 32 side than the inflow portion 42. The discharge port 44 is preferably formed on the lower end surface of the second cylindrical space 41b. The discharge port 44 discharges the separated oil and a part of the refrigerant gas from the cylindrical space 41 to the compression mechanism side space 33.

  Here, the cross-sectional area A of the opening of the delivery port 43 is preferably smaller than the cross-sectional area C of the cylindrical space 41 and larger than the cross-sectional area B of the opening of the discharge port 44. When the cross-sectional area A of the opening of the delivery port 43 is the same as the cross-sectional area C of the cylindrical space 41, the swirling flow of the refrigerant gas is blown out from the delivery port 43 without being guided toward the discharge port 44. . Further, when the cross-sectional area B of the opening of the discharge port 44 is the same as the cross-sectional area C of the cylindrical space 41, the swirling flow of the refrigerant gas blows out from the discharge port 44. Further, by making the cross-sectional area A of the opening of the delivery port 43 larger than the cross-sectional area B of the opening of the discharge port 44, the flow path resistance at the delivery port 43 is reduced. As a result, the refrigerant gas is more likely to flow to the delivery port 43 than to the discharge port 44.

  In the present embodiment, the first cylindrical space 41 a is formed by drilling the outer peripheral portion of the fixed scroll 12, and the second cylindrical space is formed by drilling the outer peripheral portion of the main bearing member 11. 41b is formed. In addition, a groove that opens in a tangential direction is formed on the end surface on the non-wrap side of the fixed scroll 12 with respect to the first cylindrical space 41 a, and a part of the groove on the first cylindrical space 41 a side is formed by the muffler 19. The inflow part 42 is comprised by covering. Moreover, the delivery port 43 is comprised with the hole formed in the muffler 19, and this hole is arrange | positioned in opening of the 1st cylindrical space 41a. Further, the discharge port 44 is constituted by a hole formed in the bearing cover 45, and this hole is arranged in the opening of the second cylindrical space 41b.

  Hereinafter, the operation of the oil separation mechanism 40 according to the present embodiment will be described. The refrigerant gas discharged into the muffler 19 is guided to the cylindrical space 41 through the inflow portion 42 formed in the fixed scroll 12. Since the inflow portion 42 opens in a tangential direction with respect to the cylindrical space 41, the refrigerant gas delivered from the inflow portion 42 flows along the inner wall surface of the cylindrical space 41, and the inner periphery of the cylindrical space 41. A swirling flow is generated on the surface. This swirling flow is a flow toward the discharge port 44. The refrigerant gas contains oil supplied to the compression mechanism unit 10, and while the refrigerant gas is swirling, the oil having a high specific gravity adheres to the inner wall of the cylindrical space 41 by centrifugal force, and the refrigerant gas and To separate.

  The swirl flow generated on the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical space 41 turns back after reaching the discharge port 44 or in the vicinity of the discharge port 44 and changes to an upward flow passing through the center of the cylindrical space 41. The refrigerant gas from which the oil has been separated by the centrifugal force reaches the delivery port 43 by the upward flow and is sent to the one container inner space 31. The refrigerant gas sent out to one container inner space 31 is sent out from the discharge pipe 4 provided in the one container inner space 31 to the outside of the sealed container 1 and supplied to the refrigeration cycle.

  The oil separated in the cylindrical space 41 is sent out from the discharge port 44 to the compression mechanism side space 33 together with a small amount of refrigerant gas. The oil sent out to the compression mechanism side space 33 reaches the oil storage part 2 through the wall surface of the sealed container 1 and the communication path of the electric motor part 20 due to its own weight.

  The refrigerant gas sent out to the compression mechanism side space 33 passes through the gap of the compression mechanism portion 10, reaches one container inner space 31, and is sent out from the discharge pipe 4 to the outside of the sealed container 1.

  In the oil separation mechanism 40 according to the present embodiment, the delivery port 43 is formed on the one container inner space 31 side with respect to the inflow part 42, and the discharge port 44 is formed on the other container inner space 32 side with respect to the inflow part 42. To do. Therefore, a swirl flow is generated on the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical space 41 between the inflow portion 42 and the discharge port 44, and swirl at the center of the cylindrical space 41 between the discharge port 44 and the delivery port 43. A flow in the opposite direction to the flow is generated. Therefore, as the discharge port 44 moves away from the inflow portion 42, the number of revolutions of the refrigerant gas increases and the oil separation effect increases. Further, since the swirling refrigerant gas passes through the central portion of the swirling flow, the delivery port 43 only needs to be on the side opposite to the discharge port from the inflow portion 42. That is, the effect of oil swirl separation can be enhanced by increasing the distance between the inflow portion 42 and the discharge port 44 as much as possible.

  In addition, the oil separation mechanism 40 according to the present embodiment discharges the oil together with the refrigerant gas from the discharge port 44 without storing the separated oil in the container inner space 32. An action of guiding the generated swirling flow toward the discharge port 44 is provided.

  If the discharge port 44 is not formed in the cylindrical space 41 and the oil is stored in the cylindrical space 41, the flow that pulls to the outside from the discharge port 44 does not occur, so the swirl flow disappears before reaching the oil surface. If it reaches the oil level, it will roll up the oil. Moreover, in order to exhibit the oil separation function without forming the discharge port 44 in the cylindrical space 41, it is necessary to form a space sufficient to store oil.

  However, by discharging the oil from the discharge port 44 together with the refrigerant gas as in the oil separation mechanism unit 40 according to the present embodiment, the swirling flow can be guided to the discharge port 44 and the oil is not wound up.

  According to the present embodiment, most of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas compressed by the compression mechanism unit 10 and delivered from the oil separation mechanism unit 40 is guided to the one container inner space 31 and discharged from the discharge pipe 4. Is done. Therefore, most of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas does not pass through the electric motor unit 20, so that the electric motor unit 20 is not heated by the refrigerant gas, and the electric motor unit 20 can be highly efficient.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, most of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas is guided to the one container inner space 31, so that the heating of the compression mechanism unit 10 in contact with the other container inner space 32 can be suppressed. In addition, heating of the suction refrigerant gas can be suppressed, and high volumetric efficiency in the compression chamber can be obtained.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, the oil separated by the oil separation mechanism 40 is discharged together with the refrigerant gas to the other container space 32, so that the oil is mostly retained in the cylindrical space 41. No. Therefore, the separated oil is blown up in the cylindrical space 41 by the swirling refrigerant gas and is not sent together with the refrigerant gas from the delivery port 43, so that stable oil separation can be performed. Further, since the oil is not retained in the cylindrical space 41, the cylindrical space 41 can be made small.

Moreover, according to this Embodiment, since the oil storage part 2 is arrange | positioned in the oil storage side space 34 and oil is not stored in the compression mechanism side space 33, the airtight container 1 can be reduced in size. Further, according to the present embodiment, the muffler 19 that isolates the discharge port 17 of the compression mechanism 10 from the one container inner space 31 is disposed, and the inside of the muffler 19 and the cylindrical space 41 are separated by the inflow portion 42. By communicating, the refrigerant gas compressed by the compression mechanism unit 10 can be reliably guided to the oil separation mechanism unit 40. That is, since all the refrigerant gas passes through the oil separation mechanism 40, the oil can be efficiently separated from the refrigerant gas. Further, since most of the high-temperature refrigerant gas discharged from the discharge port 17 is discharged from the discharge pipe 4 to the outside of the sealed container 1 without passing through the other container inner space 32, the electric motor unit 20 and the compression mechanism The heating of the part 10 can be suppressed.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, since the cylindrical space 41 is formed in the fixed scroll 12 and the main bearing member 11, the path through which the refrigerant gas flows from the discharge port 17 to the discharge pipe 4 can be configured to be short and sealed. The container 1 can be reduced in size.

Then, it flows into the delivery pipe 47 from the other end 47 b of the delivery pipe 47 and flows out from one end 47 a of the delivery pipe 47.

  As shown in the present embodiment, by providing the delivery pipe 47 in the cylindrical space 41, for example, even when the compressor is operated at a high frequency, the oil separation effect can be reliably obtained. When the delivery pipe 47 is provided, it is important that the axis of the cylindrical space 41 and the axis of the delivery pipe 47 are aligned. When the delivery pipe 47 is provided, the delivery pipe 47 can be fixed to the cylindrical space 41 by forming the delivery pipe 47 integrally with the muffler 19. In addition, the inner diameter cross-sectional area D of the delivery pipe 47 is made larger than the cross-sectional area B of the discharge port 44.

  According to the present embodiment, by providing the cylindrical delivery pipe 47 in the cylindrical space 41, the oil separation effect in the cylindrical space 41 can be enhanced.

  Also in the present embodiment in which the delivery pipe 47 is provided, the basic operation of the oil separation mechanism unit 40 is the same as that of the first embodiment, and the operations and effects in the first embodiment are also the same, so the description thereof is omitted. . The cylindrical space 41 is configured by a first cylindrical space 41a formed in the fixed scroll 12 and a second cylindrical space 41b formed in the main bearing member 11 as in the first embodiment. The second cylindrical space 41b may be formed by performing stepped hole processing on the outer peripheral portion of the main bearing member 11 as in the second embodiment.

  In the compressor in each of the above embodiments, two or more cylindrical spaces 41 may be provided.

  In the compressor in each of the above embodiments, carbon dioxide can be used as the refrigerant. Carbon dioxide is a high-temperature refrigerant, and the present invention is more effective when such a high-temperature refrigerant is used. When carbon dioxide is used as the refrigerant, it is preferable to use oil (PAG) mainly composed of polyalkylene glycol as the oil. PAG is a poorly compatible oil, does not dissolve in carbon dioxide refrigerant, and is mixed in a state separated from each other. Therefore, when the refrigerant gas and the PAG are introduced into the cylindrical space 41, a large centrifugal force acts on the PAG having a high specific gravity with respect to the refrigerant gas. As a result, the PAG is blown away in the outer peripheral direction and adheres to the inner wall of the cylindrical space 41, so that it can be separated from the refrigerant gas. That is, the effect according to the present invention is remarkably exhibited with respect to incompatible oil (or incompatible oil).

(Embodiment 5)
The basic configuration of the present embodiment is the same as that shown in FIG. Further, the same components as those described in FIGS. 1 and 2 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is partially omitted.

  FIG. 6 is a sectional view according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention. The refrigerant gas and oil introduced into the cylindrical space 41 from the inside of the muffler 19 by the inflow portion are separated into refrigerant gas and oil by the oil separation mechanism portion 40, and the oil and part of the refrigerant gas are discharged from the discharge port 44 to the electric motor portion 20. Discharged to the side.

  According to the present embodiment, most of the refrigerant gas is sufficiently separated from the oil discharged from the delivery port 43. However, the oil may be brought into the refrigeration cycle by the refrigerant gas discharged from the discharge port 44 at the same time as the oil.

  In order to avoid this, the discharge port 44 is disposed at a position facing the stator coil 20a of the electric motor unit 20, and is disposed at a position where oil and refrigerant gas are sprayed onto the stator coil 20a.

  A hatched portion 49 in FIG. 7 is an existence range of the stator coil 20a, and the discharge port 44 is arranged at a position opposite to this range. As a result, the oil and the refrigerant gas are sprayed on the coil, the oil adheres to the coil, and the refrigerant gas and the oil can be separated. be able to.

Further, a motor protector 20 c is provided on the upper part of the coil facing the discharge port 44. In the compressor of this configuration, most of the compressed refrigerant gas is discharged directly into the refrigeration cycle, so that the increase in the ambient temperature of the motor is slower than in the conventional case. However, since the current flowing through the motor is defined by the compression load, there is a possibility that the operation of the motor protector may be delayed as compared with the conventional case. However, this can be avoided by causing the refrigerant gas to directly collide with the motor protector 20c. It is possible to improve the operational sensitivity of the.

  The present invention can be applied to a compressor having a compression mechanism section and an electric motor section in a sealed container such as a scroll compressor and a rotary compressor, and is particularly suitable for a compressor using a high-temperature refrigerant.
