COMPRESSOR

The present invention relates to a compressor that compresses a refrigerant while rotating while a rotary member is suspended from a fixing member while being supported on a bearing. In particular, not only structural stability but also assemblability can be improved, And more particularly, to a compressor capable of effectively sucking and discharging refrigerant.

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, a compressor is a mechanical device that receives power from an electric motor or a power generating device such as a turbine and compresses air, refrigerant or various other operating gases to increase its pressure. Or widely used throughout the industry.

Such a compressor is broadly classified into a reciprocating compressor that compresses the refrigerant while linearly reciprocating the piston inside the cylinder so as to form a compression space in which a working gas is sucked and discharged between the piston and the cylinder. A rotary compressor for compressing the working gas in a compression space formed between a roller and a cylinder to be eccentrically rotated and a rotary compressor for compressing the working gas in a compression space formed between a roller and a cylinder, And a scroll compressor that compresses the refrigerant while rotating the orbiting scroll along the fixed scroll so that a compression space in which the working gas is sucked and discharged is formed in the scroll compressor.

Reciprocating compressors have excellent mechanical efficiency, but these reciprocating movements cause severe vibration and noise problems. Because of this problem, rotary compressors have been developed due to their compactness and excellent vibration characteristics.

The rotary compressor is configured such that a motor portion and a compression mechanism portion are mounted on a drive shaft in a hermetically sealed container. The roller located around the eccentric portion of the drive shaft is located in a cylinder forming a cylindrical compression space, And extends between the compression spaces to divide the compression space into a suction region and a compression region, and the roller is positioned eccentrically in the compression space. Generally, the vane is configured to be supported by a spring on the recessed portion of the cylinder so as to press the surface of the roller, and by this vane, the compression space is divided into the suction region and the compression region as described above. The suction region gradually increases in accordance with the rotation of the drive shaft, so that the refrigerant or the working fluid is sucked into the suction region and the compressed region is gradually reduced, thereby compressing the refrigerant or the working fluid therein.

In such a conventional rotary compressor, since the motor portion and the compression mechanism portion are stacked vertically, there is a problem that the height of the compressor inevitably increases as a whole. In addition, in the conventional rotary compressor, since the weight of the motor portion and the compression mechanism portion are different from each other, a difference in inertial force is generated, and inevitably unbalance occurs on the upper and lower sides around the drive shaft. Therefore, in order to compensate for the unbalance between the motor unit and the compression mechanism unit, a weight member can be added to the weight member having a relatively small weight. However, this results in an additional load applied to the rotating member, . In addition, in the conventional rotary compressor, since the eccentric portion is formed in the drive shaft in the compression mechanism, the eccentric portion is rotated together with the rotation of the drive shaft to drive the roller outside the eccentric portion. As a result, in the eccentric rotation of the drive shaft and eccentric portion There is a problem that the vibration due to the vibration is inevitably generated. Further, in the conventional rotary compressor, the eccentric portion of the drive shaft rotates continuously and slidingly contacts the inner surface of a stationary cylinder to which the roller is fixed, and also continuously slides on the end surface of the vane, Since there is a high relative speed between the sliding contact elements, friction loss is generated. This leads to a reduction in the efficiency of the compressor. Furthermore, there is a possibility that the refrigerant leaks from the contact surface between the sliding contact vane and the roller So that the mechanical reliability is lowered.

The conventional rotary compressor has a configuration in which a drive shaft rotates inside a fixed cylinder, while in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication Nos. 62-284985 and 64-100291, a shaft having an intake port in the axial direction and a shaft larger than the shaft A fixed shaft integrally formed with a piston eccentric in diameter and having a port communicating with a suction port of the shaft in a radial direction; A vane that is installed so as to be able to be run; A rotor rotatable about said vane; An upper bearing having a discharge port; Lower bearing; A permanent magnet having a hollow cylindrical shape having a height greater than a difference between an outer diameter and an inner diameter, the permanent magnet being fixed to the lower bearing; And a coil that is not rotated on the outer periphery of the permanent magnet. By configuring the upper and lower rotors so as to be rotatable by sequentially connecting the rotor and the lower bearing, the space between the rotor, the upper bearing and the lower bearing, And a rotary compressor.

In the rotary compressor disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (KOKAI), since the hollow cylindrical permanent magnet is located inside the stator, and the rotor and the compression mechanism section including the vane are located inside the permanent magnet, the motor section and the compression mechanism section It is possible to solve the problem that occurs.

However, since the rotary compressor disclosed in the above Japanese Patent Laid-open Publication No. Hei 10-24185 is resiliently supported by the rotor in which the vane rotates, and is in sliding contact with the outer surface of the eccentric portion (piston portion) There is still a problem that there is a possibility of refrigerant leakage at the contact surface between the vane and the eccentric portion which is in sliding contact as well as friction loss due to the existence of a high relative speed difference as in the rotary compressor. In addition, the rotary compressor disclosed in the above Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publications does not disclose any realizable structure for the suction and discharge flow of the operating fluid, the lubrication oil supply in the compression mechanism portion, and the mounting of the bearing member. It is not reaching to the extent possible.

Alternatively, U.S. Patent Publication No. 7,217,110 discloses a rotary compressor in which a fixed shaft and an eccentric portion are integrally formed, and a compression space is formed between an outer surface of a roller rotatably positioned in an eccentric portion and an inner surface of a rotating rotor . Here, the rotational force of the rotor is transmitted to the roller through a vane fixed to the upper and lower plates of the rotor rotating integrally with the rotor. By using the pressure inside the sealed container and the pressure difference inside the compression space, And the working fluid and the lubricating oil are introduced into the compression space through the formed longitudinal flow passage.

Therefore, the rotary compressor disclosed in the above-mentioned U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2000-227558 also can solve the problems due to the fact that the motor unit and the compression mechanism unit are installed in the height direction in the conventional rotary compressor because the compression mechanism is formed inside the rotor. Further, unlike the Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publications, there is no difference in relative speed between the rotors, the vanes and the rollers because they rotate integrally, and there is no fear of frictional loss caused thereby.

However, since the one end of the fixed shaft is fixed to the hermetically sealed container, the other end of the fixed shaft is formed to be suspended from the hermetically sealed container while being separated from the hermetically sealed container, so that the center of the fixed shaft is assembled And is very vulnerable to lateral vibration due to inevitable eccentric rotation due to the nature of the rotary compressor. Thus, there is a problem in that it is difficult to actually manufacture the compressor and the assembling productivity is poor. In addition, since the vane is formed inwardly from the rotor and the vane groove is formed in the roller so as to guide the movement locus of the vane, the volume of the roller inevitably becomes large for forming the vane groove and a roller of a relatively large volume There is a problem that oscillation in the lateral direction is excited by eccentric rotation. However, in the case of a structure using lubricating oil, it is necessary to use lubricating oil in the inside of the sealed container and the pressure difference in the compression space, In this case, not only a lot of lubricating oil is inevitably incorporated in the working fluid but also the lubricating performance is deteriorated because the compressor can be escaped with the working fluid, because the lubricating oil is drawn into the compression space and circulated together with the working fluid.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a compressor which can easily assemble components to a hermetically sealed container and improve structural safety.
