Description

  The present invention relates to a two-cylinder rotary compressor used in an air conditioner.

  For example, in Patent Document 1, in a two-cylinder rotary compressor, high-temperature compressed refrigerant that is compressed by a lower cylinder and discharged from a lower discharge hole is transferred from a lower end plate cover chamber (lower muffler chamber) to an upper end plate cover chamber (upper By arranging the refrigerant passage hole flowing toward the muffler chamber) at a position away from the suction chamber side of the lower cylinder and the upper cylinder, the compressed refrigerant heats the suction refrigerant on the suction chamber side of the lower cylinder and the upper cylinder. The technique which suppresses this and improves compressor efficiency is described.

  Further, in Patent Document 2, high-temperature compressed refrigerant that is compressed in the lower cylinder and discharged from the lower discharge hole suppresses heating of the refrigerant drawn in the suction chamber of the lower cylinder by heating the lower end plate. Techniques for improving the performance are described.

JP 2014-145318 A International Publication No. 2013/094114

  In the rotary compressor described in Patent Document 1, the lower end plate cover chamber formed between the lower end plate and the lower end plate cover has a large volume by inflating the lower end plate cover (lower muffler cover). Therefore, the amount of the refrigerant that is compressed by the upper cylinder, discharged from the upper discharge hole, flows backward through the refrigerant passage hole, and flows into the lower muffler chamber is large.

  In the rotary compressor described in Patent Document 2, the refrigerant passage hole is disposed on the opposite side of the lower discharge valve housing portion with respect to the lower discharge hole provided in the lower end plate, and the refrigerant discharged from the lower discharge hole is lowered. Since it flows into the refrigerant passage hole through the discharge valve accommodating portion, it is necessary to deepen the lower discharge valve accommodating portion. Therefore, the volume of the lower end plate cover chamber (refrigerant discharge space) is increased, and the amount of refrigerant compressed by the upper cylinder and discharged from the upper discharge hole and flowing backward through the refrigerant passage hole and flowing into the lower muffler chamber is large.

  Hereinafter, the backflow phenomenon of the refrigerant will be described. In a two-cylinder rotary compressor, in order to minimize the torque fluctuation per rotation of the rotating shaft as much as possible, in general, the steps of suction, compression, and discharge are performed by two cylinders with phases different by 180 °. Yes. Except for special operating conditions such as when starting up, in the operation of the air conditioner at normal outdoor temperature and indoor temperature, the discharge process of one cylinder is about 1/3 during one rotation. Therefore, 1/3 in one rotation is the discharge process of one cylinder (process in which the discharge valve is opened), the other 1/3 is the discharge process of the other cylinder, and the remaining 1/3 is both This is a process in which the discharge valve is closed.

  Here, when both the discharge valves of the two cylinders are closed and there is no flow of refrigerant discharged from the compression chamber, the upper end plate cover chamber, the lower end plate cover chamber, the inside of the compressor casing outside the upper end plate cover chamber, Same pressure. In the discharge process of one of the cylinders, the pressure in the compression chamber that is the most upstream in the flow of the refrigerant is the highest in the compressed high pressure region, and then the upper end plate cover chamber and the compressor casing outside the upper end plate cover chamber In order. Therefore, immediately after the discharge valve of the upper cylinder is opened, the pressure in the upper end plate cover chamber becomes higher than the pressure in the compressor casing outside the upper end plate cover chamber and in the lower end plate cover chamber. Therefore, at the next moment, the refrigerant flows into the lower muffler chamber by flowing backward from the upper end plate cover chamber into the compressor casing and the refrigerant passage hole outside the upper end plate cover chamber.

  The flow of the refrigerant from the upper end plate cover chamber into the compressor casing outside the upper end plate cover chamber is the original flow, but the refrigerant flowing from the upper end plate cover chamber to the lower end plate cover chamber is discharged from the upper cylinder. After the end of the process, the refrigerant flows again through the refrigerant passage hole and the upper end plate cover chamber and into the compressor casing outside the upper end plate cover chamber. There is a problem of reducing efficiency.

  Moreover, the rotary compressor described in patent document 2 is suppressing that the lower end plate which covers the lower surface of a lower cylinder with the refrigerant | coolant compressed with the lower cylinder is heated. However, in the rotary compressor, particularly when the outside air has been stopped for a long time in a low temperature atmosphere, the liquefied refrigerant may accumulate in the compressor housing. Since the density of the liquid refrigerant at a low temperature is larger than the density of the lubricating oil, the liquid refrigerant accumulates at the lowermost part inside the compressor housing. When the rotary compressor is started in this state, the liquid refrigerant is sucked up by the oil supply blades from the lower end of the rotating shaft. If the liquid refrigerant is sucked up, the viscosity of the liquid refrigerant is smaller than the viscosity of the lubricating oil, so that the sliding part of the compression part may be poorly lubricated and damaged.

  Therefore, at the time of starting the rotary compressor, it is necessary to quickly heat and vaporize the liquid refrigerant. However, if the heating of the lower end plate is suppressed as in the rotary compressor described in Patent Document 2, the compressor Vaporization due to heating of the liquid refrigerant accumulated in the lower part of the housing is suppressed, and the problem is that the liquid refrigerant is sucked up by the oil supply blades and damage due to poor lubrication of the compression unit occurs.

  Further, in the rotary compressor, a part of the lubricating oil is caught in the refrigerant inside the compressor casing and discharged out of the compressor casing, and the discharged lubricating oil is the refrigerant circuit (refrigeration cycle) of the air conditioner. Is taken into the lower cylinder and the upper cylinder together with the suction refrigerant. The lubricating oil sucked into the lower cylinder is discharged together with the refrigerant from the lower discharge hole into the lower end plate cover chamber. When the lubricating oil discharged into the lower end plate cover chamber accumulates in the lower end plate cover chamber and the lower discharge hole is immersed in the lubricating oil, there arises a problem that the discharge resistance of the refrigerant becomes low and the efficiency is reduced and noise is generated. This problem tends to occur as the volume of the lower end plate cover chamber decreases.

  An object of the present invention is to prevent the refrigerant compressed by the upper cylinder from flowing back through the refrigerant passage hole, thereby preventing a reduction in the efficiency of the rotary compressor.

  Below, the flow of the refrigerant | coolant by rotation of the rotating shaft 15 is demonstrated. In the upper cylinder chamber 130T, the upper piston 125T fitted to the upper eccentric portion 152T of the rotary shaft 15 is rotated along the outer peripheral surface of the upper cylinder chamber 130T (the inner peripheral surface of the upper cylinder 121T) by the rotation of the rotary shaft 15.

  The oil supply blade 158 sucks up the lubricating oil 18 by applying a centrifugal force to the lubricating oil 18 in the oil supply vertical hole 155, and the lubricating oil 18 is discharged from the compressor housing 10 together with the refrigerant to lower the oil level. In addition, the lubricant 18 is surely supplied to the sliding surface.

  Next, a characteristic configuration of the rotary compressor 1 according to the first embodiment will be described. FIG. 4 is a bottom view showing a lower end plate of the rotary compressor of the first embodiment, and FIG. 5 is a longitudinal sectional view showing a lower discharge valve housing concave portion to which the lower discharge valve of the rotary compressor of the first embodiment is attached. is there.

As shown in FIG. 4, the lower end plate cover chamber 180S has a lower discharge plate chamber provided in the lower end plate 160S because the lower end plate cover 170S has a flat plate shape and does not have a dome-like bulge portion like the upper end plate cover 170T. It is comprised by the recessed part 163S and the lower discharge valve accommodation recessed part 164S. Lower discharge valve housing recess 164S from the position of the lower discharge holes 190S, a direction which intersects the radial line _{L 1} connecting the center _{O 2} of the center _{O 1} and the lower discharge holes 190S sub bearing portion 161S, in other words, the lower end plate The groove extends linearly in the circumferential direction of 160S. The lower discharge valve housing recess 164S is connected to the lower discharge chamber recess 163S. The lower discharge valve accommodating recess 164S is formed to have a width slightly larger than the width of the lower discharge valve 200S and the lower discharge valve presser 201S, and accommodates the lower discharge valve 200S and the lower discharge valve presser 201S, and the lower discharge valve 200S and The lower discharge valve holder 201S is positioned.

  The lower discharge chamber recess 163S is formed to the same depth as the lower discharge valve storage recess 164S so as to overlap the lower discharge hole 190S side of the lower discharge valve storage recess 164S. The lower discharge hole 190S side of the lower discharge valve housing recess 164S is housed in the lower discharge chamber recess 163S.

Lower discharge chamber recess 163S includes a center _{O 1} of the sub bearing portion 161S, the midpoint _{O 4} of the line segment _{L 2} (length F) connecting the center _{O 2} and the center _{O 3} of below rivets 202S of the lower discharge holes 190S , a radial line L ₃ through the form in the sector ranging between radial line L ₄ open pitch angle 90 ° to the direction of the lower discharge holes 190S around the center O ₁ of the sub bearing portion 161S. The refrigerant passage hole 136 is disposed at a position where at least a part thereof overlaps with the lower discharge chamber recess 163S and communicates with the lower discharge chamber recess 163S.

  As shown in FIG. 5, an annular lower valve seat 191 </ b> S that is raised with respect to the bottom of the lower discharge chamber recess 163 </ b> S is formed at the periphery of the opening of the lower discharge hole 190 </ b> S, and the lower valve seat 191 </ b> S is the lower discharge valve 200 </ b> S. Abuts the front. The depth H to the lower valve seat 191S of the lower discharge chamber recess 163S is 1.5 times or less the diameter φD1 of the lower discharge hole 190S.

  The opening degree of the lower discharge valve 200S when the refrigerant is discharged from the lower discharge hole 190S, that is, the lift amount of the lower discharge valve 200S with respect to the lower valve seat 191S needs to be a lift amount that does not become the resistance of the discharge flow. Therefore, the depth H to the lower valve seat 160S of the lower discharge chamber recess 163S needs to be determined in consideration of the lift amount of the lower discharge valve 200S and the thicknesses of the lower discharge valve 200S and the lower discharge valve presser 201S. However, 1.5 times the diameter φD1 of the lower discharge hole 190S is sufficient.

  The refrigerant passage hole 136 is disposed at a position where at least a part thereof overlaps with the upper discharge chamber recess 163T and communicates with the upper discharge chamber recess 163T. The upper discharge chamber recess 163T and the upper discharge valve accommodating recess 164T formed in the upper end plate 160T are not shown in detail, but the lower discharge chamber recess 163S and the lower discharge valve accommodating recess 164S formed in the lower end plate 160S, It is formed in the same shape. The upper end plate cover chamber 180T is constituted by a dome-shaped bulged portion of the upper end plate cover 170T, an upper discharge chamber recess 163T, and an upper discharge valve housing recess 164T.

  With the configuration of the rotary compressor 1 according to the first embodiment described above, the distance between the lower discharge hole 190S and the inlet of the refrigerant passage hole 136 can be shortened. Therefore, the volume of the lower end plate cover chamber 180S, that is, the sum of the volume of the lower discharge chamber recess 163S and the volume of the lower discharge valve housing recess 164S can be significantly reduced as compared with the conventional case. As a result, the refrigerant compressed by the upper cylinder 121T and discharged from the upper discharge hole 190T can flow back into the lower end plate cover chamber 180S through the refrigerant passage hole 136, thereby reducing the efficiency of the rotary compressor 1. Decline can be prevented.

The lower end plate cover 170S2 has a recess 171S2 at a portion facing the front portion of the lower discharge valve retainer 201S, and accommodates a portion where the front portion of the lower discharge valve retainer 201S protrudes from the lower discharge chamber recess 163S2. The depth from the recess 171S2 to the lower valve seat 191S is formed to be 1.5 times or less the diameter φD1 of the lower discharge hole 190S.

  Due to the configuration of the rotary compressor 1 of the second embodiment described above, the volume of the lower discharge valve accommodating recess 164S2 can be made smaller than that of the rotary compressor 1 of the first embodiment, and thus the compressed by the upper cylinder 121T. The flow rate of the refrigerant discharged from the upper discharge hole 190T backflowing through the refrigerant passage hole 136 and flowing into the lower end plate cover chamber 180S2 can be further reduced, and a reduction in the efficiency of the rotary compressor 1 can be prevented.

  FIG. 7 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view showing a lower discharge valve accommodating recess to which a lower discharge valve of the rotary compressor of the third embodiment is attached.

Yes. Thus, the depth H2 to the lower valve seat 191S of the lower discharge chamber recess 163S3 and the lower discharge valve housing recess 164S3 is secured while securing the same opening as the lower discharge valve 201S of the rotary compressor 1 of the first embodiment. Like shallow.

  With the configuration of the rotary compressor 1 of the third embodiment described above, the volume of the lower end plate cover chamber 180S3 can be made smaller than the rotary compressor 1 of the second embodiment by the volume of the recess 171S2 of the second embodiment. Thus, the refrigerant compressed by the upper cylinder 121T and discharged from the upper discharge hole 190T can flow back into the lower end plate cover chamber 180S3 through the refrigerant passage hole 136, thereby further reducing the rotary compressor. 1 can be prevented.

The refrigerant passage hole (long hole) 136M is formed along the circumferential direction of the lower valve seat 191S. Accordingly, the radius R1 from the center _{O 1} of the sub bearing portion 161S to the outermost periphery of the refrigerant passage holes 136M, the refrigerant passage holes from the center _{O 1} of the sub bearing portion 161S of the rotary compressor 1 of the fourth embodiment shown in FIG. 8 The radius can be smaller than the radius R1 up to the outermost periphery of 136N, and the diameter of the circular lower discharge chamber recess 163S5 can be reduced.

  With the configuration of the rotary compressor 1 of the fifth embodiment described above, the bottom area of the lower discharge chamber recess 163S5 is made smaller than the bottom area of the lower discharge chamber recess 163S4 of the rotary compressor 1 of the fourth embodiment. The volume of the concave portion 163S5 can be reduced, whereby the refrigerant compressed by the upper cylinder 121T and discharged from the upper discharge hole 190T further flows back into the lower end plate cover chamber 180S5 through the refrigerant passage hole 136M. Therefore, the efficiency of the rotary compressor 1 can be prevented from being reduced.

As shown in FIG. 10, in the rotary compressor 1 of the sixth embodiment, the lower discharge chamber recess 163S and the lower discharge valve housing of the lower surface of the lower end plate 160S6 (which is a contact surface with the lower end plate cover 170S of the first embodiment). In regions other than the region where the recess 164S is formed, a refrigerant introduction portion 165S6 that is an annular groove having a depth of 1 mm or less surrounding the auxiliary bearing portion 161S is formed inside the plurality of bolt holes 137. In addition, you may form the cyclic | annular groove | channel used as the refrigerant | coolant introducing | transducing part 165S6 in the upper surface of the lower end plate cover 170S instead of the lower surface of the lower end plate 160S6.

  One end of the refrigerant introduction portion 165S6 communicates with the lower discharge chamber recess 163S, and the other end communicates with the lower discharge valve accommodation recess 164S (the refrigerant introduction portion 165S6 is connected to the lower discharge chamber recess 163S or the lower discharge valve accommodation recess 164S). You may communicate with only one of them). The refrigerant introduction portion 165S6 communicates with the lower discharge chamber recess 163S or the lower discharge valve housing recess 164S, so that the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant discharged from the lower discharge hole 190S passes through the lower discharge chamber recess 163S or the lower discharge valve housing recess 164S. Then, it is guided to the refrigerant introduction part 165S6.

  When the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant is guided to the refrigerant introduction part 165S6, the lower end plate cover 170S is heated and the lower part of the compressor casing 10 of the rotary compressor 1 is started when the air conditioner is started from a state of being stopped for a long time. The liquid refrigerant 19 (see FIG. 1) staying in the chamber is heated and vaporized as soon as possible, and the liquid refrigerant 19 is sucked up instead of the lubricating oil 18 for a long time to prevent the sliding portion of the compression section 12 from being damaged. be able to. In order to reduce the amount of the refrigerant compressed in the upper cylinder 121T flowing back through the refrigerant passage hole 136, the volume of the space of the refrigerant introduction portion 165S6 is small within a range in which the heating amount necessary for vaporizing the liquid refrigerant 19 can be secured. Therefore, the depth of the refrigerant introduction part 165S6 is made shallow within a range in which a heating amount necessary for vaporizing the liquid refrigerant 19 can be secured.

A part of the auxiliary bolt escape hole 171S7 overlaps and communicates with the refrigerant introduction part 165S6 formed in the lower end plate 160S6, and serves as a refrigerant discharge part 172S7. When the auxiliary bolt escape hole 171S7 does not overlap with the refrigerant introduction part 165S6, the lower discharge plate recess 170S7 (170S, 170S2) is separately communicated with the lower discharge chamber recess 163S, the lower discharge valve housing recess 164S, or the refrigerant introduction part 165S6. A small hole (not shown) is provided, and this small hole may be used as the refrigerant discharge portion 172S7.

  The refrigerant discharge unit 172S7 discharges the compressed refrigerant directly into the compressor housing 10 without passing through the refrigerant passage hole 136. The refrigerant discharge portion 172S7 prevents the lowering of the efficiency and noise caused by the lubricating oil 18 accumulating in the lower discharge chamber recess 163S and the lower discharge valve housing recess 164S of the lower end plate 160S6 and the lower discharge hole 190S being immersed in the lubricating oil 18. Can do. In addition, by providing the refrigerant discharge unit 172S7, the refrigerant discharged from the refrigerant discharge unit 172S7 heats the liquid refrigerant 19 (see FIG. 1) that stays in the lower portion of the compressor housing 10 while stopped for a long time. It also has the effect of promoting vaporization.
