Description
- The present invention relates to a motor driven compressor, more particularly, which can use refrigerant sucked into a swash plate chamber of the compressor to efficiently cool an electric motor.
- In a swash plate type compressor generally used as a compressor of a vehicle air conditioning system, a swash plate in the form of a disk is installed at an inclination angle in a drive shaft for selectively receiving engine power through the engagement/disengagement of an electric clutch or directly receiving power from an electric motor to be rotated by the drive shaft and a plurality of pistons installed around the swash plate with shoes interposed therebetween to linearly reciprocate within a plurality of bores formed in a cylinder block in cooperation with this rotation so that refrigerant is sucked in from an evaporator, compressed, and discharged toward a condenser.
- There are various types of compressors that are generally divided into reciprocal and rotary types, in which the reciprocal compressors are divided into crank type, swash plate type and wobble plate type compressors, and the rotary compressors are divided into vane rotary and scroll type compressors. Some of the compressors are called variable capacity compressors since they can vary volume.
- Further, there are motor driven compressors which are driven by electric motors as power source, and divided into scroll type and swash plate type motor driven compressors.
- In the meantime, the swash plate type compressors are divided into a single head swash plate type compressor if compression is performed at one side by pistons and a double head swash plate type compressor if compression is performed at both sides by pistons.
- A motor driven compressor using an electric motor as a power source includes a motor unit having a motor and a compressor unit for compressing refrigerant. The motor unit is heated since the electric motor installed therein is rotated at high speed, and this heat generation also functions as a factor of degrading the entire performance of the motor driven compressor. Accordingly, the motor driven compressor has an important requirement to cool the motor unit.
- A number of techniques have been developed already as means for cooling the motor unit of the motor driven compressor.
- Japanese Patent Publication No. 1997-32729 discloses a scroll type compressor in which suction refrigerant is flown through a motor room to cool a motor before being compressed in a compressor unit. However, according to this cooling scheme, sucked refrigerant is introduced into the compressor unit via a motor unit to raise the temperature and pressure of refrigerant in a low pressure section, thereby causing problems of the performance degradation of the compressor such as compression efficiency degradation.
- According to a scheme applied to the swash plate type compressor using single head pistons, sucked refrigerant is introduced to the motor unit to cool the same and then re-compressed via a low pressure section of the compressor. This scheme may be also performed based upon multiple stage cooling, by which refrigerant compressed in a first piston is introduced to a motor unit to cool the same and then re-compressed by a second piston before being discharged. This scheme is disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 2001-200785. However, this cooling scheme has problems in that refrigerant is introduced into the motor room through a channel isolated from a swash plate chamber failing to sufficiently lubricate the swash plate chamber and compression is performed only at one side making pressure pulsation characteristics poor compared to double head swash plate type compressor. Furthermore, it is required to have a large inclination angle of the swash plate so that load a high speed rotation lowers durability.
- The present invention has been made to solve the foregoing problems and it is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a motor driven compressor which is so constituted that refrigerant is fed from a swash plate chamber partially into a suction chamber of a front housing via a motor room and partially into a suction chamber of a rear housing in order to improve the cooling efficiency of an electric motor and the entire performance of the compressor while efficiently lubricating sliding components of the swash plate chamber thereby improving durability.
- According to an aspect of the invention for realizing the above objects, there is provided a motor driven compressor comprising: a motor unit having an electric motor installed in an inside motor room for rotating a drive shaft; and a compressor unit installed at one side of the motor unit, wherein the compressor unit comprises: a front housing having at least a discharge chamber therein; a rear housing having a suction chamber and a discharge chamber formed therein, the suction chamber being partitioned from the discharge chamber and a refrigerant discharge port formed at one side communicating with the discharge chamber; a cylinder block coupled between the front housing and the rear housing and having a plurality bores formed at both sides of the swash plate chamber and a refrigerant suction formed at one side thereof; a swash plate placed in the swash plate chamber and coupled with the drive shaft and a plurality of double head pistons for reciprocating within the bores in cooperation with the rotation of the swash plate; and feeding means for feeding refrigerant from the swash plate chamber partially into the motor room and partially into the suction chamber of the rear housing.

swash plate chamber 43 inside thecylinder block 40, aswash plate 50 is coupled with thedrive shaft 14 at a predetermined inclined angle to rotate along with thedrive shaft 14, and a plurality ofdouble head pistons 51 are mounted on the outer periphery of theswash plate 50 withshoes 52 interposed therebetween to compress refrigerant while performing linear reciprocation within thebores swash plate 50. - The front and
rear housings cylinder block 40 and provided withvalve units housings suction valve discharge value suction chamber 61 and thedischarge chambers rear housings bores cylinder block 40 in cooperation with suction and compression strokes of thedouble head pistons 51. - A
hub 50 a formed integrally with theswash plate 50 is supported at both ends by a thrust bearing 53 within theswash plate chamber 43. - The
motor unit 10 and thecompressor unit 20 of the motor driven compressor 1 of the afore-described constitution are fixedly coupled with each other via fastening means such as a plurality of bolts as not shown. - The motor driven compressor as above has feeding means 45 for feeding refrigerant, which is introduced into the
swash plate chamber 43, partially into themotor room 12 and partially into thesuction chamber 61 of therear housing 60. - The feeding means 45 include first
low pressure passages swash plate chamber 43 and themotor room 12 and a secondlow pressure passage 42 b communicating between theswash plate chamber 43 and thesuction chamber 61 of therear housing 60. - The first
low pressure passages front cylinder block 41 and thefront housing 30, and the secondlow pressure passage 42 b is formed through therear cylinder block 42. - Therefore, after being sucked in from the outside through the
refrigerant suction port 44 and introduced into theswash plate chamber 43, refrigerant is fed partially into themotor room 12 via the firstlow pressure passages suction chamber 61 of therear housing 60 via the secondlow pressure passage 42 b. - The
front housing 30 has a plurality ofsuction passages 32 for communicating themotor room 12 to thebores 41 a in a communicating fashion so that refrigerant can be fed from themotor room 12 into thebores 41 a of thefront cylinder block 41 at the suction stroke of thedouble head pistons 51. - The
front housing 30 may be additionally provided with a suction chamber (not shown) partitioned from thedischarge chamber 31. Alternatively, refrigerant may be sucked into thebores 41 a directly through thesuction passages 32 without the suction chamber. - Also, the

discharge chamber 62 to therefrigerant discharge port 64 of therear housing 60 in order to lower discharge pressure pulsation. - The motor driven compressor 1 of the above constitution will be described in conjunction with the operation thereof as follows.
- Refrigerant fed from the outside is introduced into the
swash plate chamber 43 through therefrigerant suction port 44 of thecylinder block 40. Refrigerant contains oil to lubricate sliding components including theswash plate 50, theshoes 52 and thepistons 51 when fed thereto. - In succession, refrigerant is fed from the
swash plate chamber 43 partially into themotor room 12 through the firstlow pressure passages swash plate chamber 43 to themotor room 12, and partially into thesuction chamber 61 of therear housing 60 via the secondlow pressure passage 42 b which communicates theswash plate chamber 43 to thesuction chamber 61 of therear housing 60. - When fed into the
motor room 12, refrigerant serves to cool the heat generated from theelectric motor 13 to prevent magnetic flux drop originated from the overheating of refrigerant so that theelectric motor 13 can maintain performance. - Then, refrigerant is sucked from the
motor room 12 into thebores 41 a through thesuction passages 32 simultaneously with the opening of thesuction valve 72 of thevalve unit 70 at the suction stroke of thedouble head pistons 51. - After being compressed into a high temperature and pressure state in response to the compression stroke of the
pistons 51, refrigerant is discharged through thedischarge valve 72 of thevalue unit 70 into thedischarge chamber 31 of thefront housing 30, and fed into thedischarge chamber 62 of therear housing 60 along thecommunication passageway 48. - Then, refrigerant is sucked from the
suction chamber 61 of therear housing 60 into thebores 42 a of therear cylinder block 42 through thesuction valve 71 of thevalue unit 70 to be compressed in cooperation with the suction/compression strokes of thepistons 51 as described above so that refrigerant in a high temperature and pressure state is discharged into thedischarge chamber 62 of therear housing 60 via thedischarge valve 72 of thevalve unit 70. - Then, refrigerant is discharged from the
discharge chamber 62 of therear housing 60 to the outside through therefrigerant discharge port 64 together with refrigerant fed through thecommunication passageway 48 from thedischarge chamber 31 of thefront housing 30. - As a consequence, after being introduced into the
swash plate chamber 43, refrigerant is fed partially into themotor room 12 to cool themotor unit 10 and partially into thesuction chamber 61 of therear housing 60 to effectively lubricate the sliding components within theswash plate chamber 43 to improve the durability thereof. Also, since themotor unit 10 is cooled by using only partial refrigerant of a low temperature and pressure, this can prevent compression efficiency degradation while enhancing cooling effect. - In addition, unlike a single head swash plate type motor driven compressor of the prior art, the double head swash plate type motor driven compressor 1 of the invention executes compression at both front and rear ends to achieve pressure pulsation reduction. The motor drive compressor can improve cooling performance based upon high speed rotation even with small discharging capacity, and thus is advantageous when packaged longitudinally with the same capacity.
- Further, the double head swash plate type motor driven compressor can decrease the swash plate angle smaller than that of the single head swash plate type motor driven compressor to decrease load at high speed rotation thereby achieving advantageous effect in view of durability.
