Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2010-121582 (FIG. 8)

  Generally, in a scroll compressor having an injection mechanism as described above, a tube insertion hole that is coaxial with the injection port and larger in diameter than the injection port is formed on the back side of the fixed scroll. An annular bottom is formed between the tube insertion hole and the injection port due to the difference in diameter.

  In the manufacturing process of the scroll compressor, the injection tube is inserted into the tube insertion hole of the fixed scroll before the lid is attached to the body of the sealed container. And the lid part which penetrated the injection pipe is attached to the trunk | drum in the state which the front-end | tip part of the injection pipe contacted the annular bottom part of the pipe insertion hole, and a lid | cover part and a trunk | drum are fixed by welding. Thereafter, the injection tube and the lid are fixed by brazing before the lid is completely cooled. For this reason, after the cover part has cooled down, the distal end portion of the injection tube is pressed against the annular bottom due to the difference in heat shrinkage. The stress generated thereby concentrates on the brazed portion between the injection tube and the lid, and therefore the injection tube may be damaged during operation. Therefore, the scroll compressor as described above has a problem that durability is lowered.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and an object thereof is to provide a scroll compressor capable of improving durability.

  A scroll compressor according to the present invention includes a container, a base plate part, and a spiral tooth formed on one surface of the base plate part, and is compressed between the swing scroll. A fixed scroll forming a chamber, an insertion hole formed in the other surface of the base plate portion, and an inner diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the insertion hole, and one of the bottom portion of the insertion hole and the base plate portion An injection port that penetrates between the surfaces, an injection pipe that passes through the container and is inserted into the insertion hole and injects fluid into the compression chamber via the injection port, and is larger than the inner diameter of the injection port An annular buffer member disposed between the injection tube and the bottom of the insertion hole, and the injection tube has an outer diameter larger than the inner diameter of the buffer member; A large diameter portion in contact with the buffer member; A small-diameter portion having an outer diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the diameter portion and fitted in the buffer member, and the axial dimension of the small-diameter portion is smaller than the axial dimension of the buffer member Is.

  According to the present invention, since it is possible to prevent the tip portion of the injection tube and the bottom portion of the insertion hole from coming into direct contact with each other, damage to the injection tube can be suppressed. Therefore, according to the present invention, the durability of the scroll compressor can be improved.

A seal 44 for preventing fluid leakage is provided at the tip of the spiral tooth 32b. A thrust plate 42 serving as a thrust bearing is provided on the other surface (thrust bearing surface) of the base plate portion 32a. The thrust bearing surface of the orbiting scroll 32 is supported in the axial direction by the frame 33 via the thrust plate 42. In addition, a bottomed cylindrical rocking bearing 34 is formed at a substantially central portion of the other surface of the rocking scroll 32. In the swing bearing 34, a slider 46 that supports the swing scroll 32 is rotatably accommodated to swing the swing scroll 32. An eccentric shaft portion 40 a provided at the upper end of the main shaft 40 is inserted into the slider 46 so as to be eccentric with respect to the main shaft 40.

  The fixed scroll 31 and the orbiting scroll 32 are mounted in the sealed container 10 in a state where the spiral teeth 31b and the spiral teeth 32b are engaged with each other. A compression chamber 35 is formed between the spiral teeth 31b and the spiral teeth 32b. Also, an Oldham ring 36 is disposed between the swing scroll 32 and the frame 33 to prevent the swing scroll 32 from rotating and enable swing motion. A key portion 36a formed on the upper surface of the Oldham ring 36 is slidably accommodated in an Oldham groove 45 provided in the orbiting scroll 32, and a key portion (not shown) formed on the lower surface is It is slidably accommodated in an Oldham groove (not shown) provided in the frame 33.

The pump shaft portion 40b is integrally formed with the main shaft 40. An oil hole 40c provided at the center of the main shaft 40 communicates with the oil pump 41 on the lower end side.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a connection structure of the injection pipe 60 in the scroll compressor 1 according to the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2, an insertion hole 61 having a depth shallower than the thickness of the base plate portion 31a is formed in the upper surface of the base plate portion 31a of the fixed scroll 31 along the thickness direction of the base plate portion 31a. Has been. Between the bottom 61a of the insertion hole 61 and the surface of the base plate portion 31a on the compression chamber 35 side, an injection port 62 penetrating the base plate portion 31a is formed. The fixed scroll 31 of this example is provided with only one injection port 62 for injection. The opening end of the injection port 62 on the compression chamber 35 side is located in the middle of the compression stroke in the compression chamber 35. The injection port 62 is formed coaxially with the insertion hole 61 and has an inner diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the insertion hole 61. Thereby, the bottom 61 a of the insertion hole 61 has an annular shape surrounding the injection port 62.

  The injection pipe 60 is for injecting fluid into the compression chamber 35 via the injection port 62. The injection pipe 60 passes through the through portion 15 formed in the lid portion 10b of the sealed container 10, and is jointed with the joint portion 60a brazed to the lid portion 10b, and the base side of the joint portion 60a (that is, the injection port 62 side). And a piping part 60b to be inserted into the insertion hole 61.

  An annular buffer member 63 is disposed between the injection pipe 60 and the bottom 61 a of the insertion hole 61. The buffer member 63 has, for example, a rectangular cross-sectional shape. The buffer member 63 is formed using an elastic material such as resin or rubber, for example. In a state where the buffer member 63 is inserted into the insertion hole 61 (including press-fitting), the outer diameter of the buffer member 63 is D11, and the inner diameter of the buffer member 63 is D12. The outer diameter D11 of the buffer member 63 is at least larger than the inner diameter of the injection port 62, and is the same as the inner diameter of the insertion hole 61 in this example. Accordingly, the buffer member 63 is disposed on the annular bottom portion 61 a in the insertion hole 61. Further, the axial dimension (thickness in the vertical direction in the figure) of the buffer member 63 is L11.

  The buffer member 63 of this example is formed using a material having a Young's modulus (elastic coefficient) smaller than the material for forming the fixed scroll 31 and the injection pipe 60. For example, the fixed scroll 31 is formed using cast iron (Young's modulus 152.3 GPa), and the injection tube 60 is formed using brass (Young's modulus 103 GPa). On the other hand, the buffer member 63 uses, for example, rubber (Young's modulus 0.01-0.1 GPa) or polytetrafluoroethylene (Young's modulus 0.5 GPa) whose Young's modulus is sufficiently smaller than the above materials. Is formed.

  The piping part 60b of the injection pipe 60 has a large diameter part 60b1 and a small diameter part 60b2 located on the root side of the large diameter part 60b1. The small diameter portion 60b2 is formed, for example, by performing a cutting process on the large diameter portion 60b1. On the outer peripheral surface of the large-diameter portion 60b1, an all-around groove 65 that extends around the entire circumference in the circumferential direction is formed. An O-ring 64 is accommodated in the entire circumferential groove 65. The O-ring 64 is for airtightly separating the injection port 62 and the discharge space 14.

  The outer diameter of the large diameter portion 60b1 is D21. The outer diameter of the small diameter part 60b2 is D22 smaller than the outer diameter D21 of the large diameter part 60b1. The outer diameter D21 of the large diameter portion 60b1 is the same as or smaller than the inner diameter of the insertion hole 61 and is larger than the inner diameter D12 of the buffer member 63. The lower end portion of the large diameter portion 60b1 is in contact with the buffer member 63. Thereby, the buffer member 63 is sandwiched between the lower end portion of the large diameter portion 60 b 1 and the bottom portion 61 a of the insertion hole 61.

  The small diameter portion 60b2 is fitted into the buffer member 63 (including press-fitting). That is, the outer diameter D22 of the small diameter portion 60b2 is substantially the same as or smaller than the inner diameter D12 of the buffer member 63. In this example, the outer diameter D22 of the small diameter portion 60b2 is larger than the inner diameter of the injection port 62, but the outer diameter D22 of the small diameter portion 60b2 may be smaller than the inner diameter of the injection port 62. The axial dimension (the length in the vertical direction in the figure) of the small diameter portion 60b2 is L21. The axial dimension L21 of the small diameter portion 60b2 is smaller than the axial dimension L11 of the buffer member 63. Thereby, the lower end part of the small diameter part 60b2 and the bottom part 61a of the insertion hole 61 do not contact each other and face each other with the space 66 interposed therebetween.

  Next, the operation of the scroll compressor 1 in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. When electric power is supplied to the motor stator 21, the motor rotor 22 rotates together with the main shaft 40. The rotational driving force of the main shaft 40 is transmitted to the orbiting scroll 32 via the slider 46. The orbiting scroll 32 to which the rotational driving force is transmitted is restricted from rotating by the Oldham ring 36 and performs an orbiting motion with respect to the fixed scroll 31. As a result, the volume of the compression chamber 35 formed between the fixed scroll 31 and the swing scroll 32 changes.

  Along with the rocking motion of the rocking scroll 32, a fluid (for example, a low-pressure gas refrigerant) is sucked into the low-pressure space in the sealed container 10 from the suction pipe 12, taken into the compression chamber 35 and compressed. The compressed fluid passes through the discharge port 31c, pushes up the discharge valve 50 and is discharged into the discharge space 14, and then is discharged from the discharge pipe 13 to the outside.

  When the injection mechanism is used, a fluid (for example, liquid refrigerant) having a pressure higher than that in the compression chamber 35 is guided to the injection pipe 60 and flows into the compression chamber 35 in the middle of the compression stroke. As a result, the amount of fluid in the compression chamber 35 increases and the inside of the compression chamber 35 is cooled. The compressed fluid is discharged to the outside from the discharge pipe 13 through the discharge port 31c, the discharge valve 50, and the discharge space 14 as described above.

  Next, an example of the manufacturing process of the scroll compressor 1 in the present embodiment will be described. First, the compression mechanism part 30 and the electric motor part 20 produced through a predetermined process are fixed to the inner peripheral surface of the body part 10a using shrink fitting or the like. Next, the buffer member 63 is arranged on the bottom 61a of the insertion hole 61 of the fixed scroll 31 (buffer member arranging step). Next, the injection tube 60 is inserted into the insertion hole 61 (injection tube insertion step). In the injection tube insertion step, the small diameter portion 60b2 of the injection tube 60 is fitted into the buffer member 63, and the lower end portion of the large diameter portion 60b1 is in contact with the buffer member 63. Here, in the buffer member arranging step, the buffer member 63 may be fitted into the small diameter portion 60b2 of the injection pipe 60 before insertion, instead of arranging the buffer member 63 at the bottom 61a of the insertion hole 61.

  Subsequently, while the small diameter portion 60b2 is fitted in the buffer member 63 and the lower end portion of the large diameter portion 60b1 is kept in contact with the buffer member 63, the injection pipe 60 is passed through the through portion 15 of the lid portion 10b. Then, the lid portion 10b is assembled to the trunk portion 10a (lid portion assembling step). Next, welding between the cover part 10b and the trunk | drum 10a is carried out over the perimeter (welding process). Thereafter, the injection tube 60 and the lid portion 10b are brazed before the lid portion 10b heated in the welding process is cooled to room temperature (brazing step). In the brazing step, the injection pipe 60 and the lid portion 10b are joined by the brazing portion 15a. The scroll compressor 1 is produced through the above steps.

  As described above, the scroll compressor 1 according to the present embodiment includes the sealed container 10 and the spiral teeth that are accommodated in the sealed container 10 and formed on one surface of the base plate portion 31a and the base plate portion 31a. A fixed scroll 31 that forms a compression chamber 35 between the rocking scroll 32, an insertion hole 61 formed on the other surface of the base plate portion 31a, and an inner diameter of the insertion hole 61 is smaller. An injection port 62 having an inner diameter and penetrating between the bottom 61a of the insertion hole 61 and one surface of the base plate portion 31a, and being inserted into the insertion hole 61 through the sealed container 10 and passing through the injection port 62 An injection buffer 60 for injecting fluid into the compression chamber 35, and an annular buffer member having an outer diameter D11 larger than the inner diameter of the injection port 62 and disposed between the injection pipe 60 and the bottom 61a of the insertion hole 61 63 and To have. The injection tube 60 has an outer diameter D21 that is larger than the inner diameter D12 of the buffer member 63, and has a large diameter portion 60b1 that contacts the buffer member 63 and an outer diameter D22 that is smaller than the outer diameter D21 of the large diameter portion 60b1. , And a small diameter portion 60b2 fitted in the buffer member 63. The axial dimension L21 of the small diameter portion 60b2 is smaller than the axial dimension L11 of the buffer member 63.

  According to this configuration, the buffer member 63 can be sandwiched between the injection pipe 60 and the bottom 61 a of the insertion hole 61. That is, in the axial direction of the injection pipe 60, the buffer member 63 can exist between the lower end portion of the large diameter portion 60b1 and the bottom portion 61a of the insertion hole 61, and the lower end portion of the small diameter portion 60b2 and the insertion hole A space 66 can exist between the bottom portion 61 a of 61. For this reason, even if the lid portion 10b is cooled to room temperature after the brazing process is finished and the injection tube 60 is pressed against the injection port 62 due to a difference in thermal shrinkage, the injection tube 60 and the bottom 61a of the insertion hole 61 are in direct contact with each other. Can be prevented. Thereby, the stress which concentrates on the brazing part 15a can be relieved, and the damage of the injection pipe 60 can be prevented. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the durability of the scroll compressor 1 can be improved.
