Abstract
A displacement control valve of a clutchless variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor for controlling the discharge displacement of the compressor by opening and closing a communication path between a discharge chamber and a crank chamber. The displacement control valve has a valve hole (106) formed in the communication path and always communicating with the discharge chamber, an inside control valve (100) for opening and closing the valve hole (106) by a valve body (112) operated in response to expansion and contraction of a pressure sensing member (109) for sensing a suction pressure, and an operation switching device (120) connected to the inside control valve for switching the inside control valve between an operating condition where the valve body opens and closes the valve hole in response to the expansion and contraction of the pressure sensing member and a non-operating condition where the valve body opens the valve hole independently of the expansion and contraction of the pressure sensing member. In this displacement control valve, because a discharge pressure Pd acts on both the valve body (112) and a pressure sensing rod (110), the force of the discharge pressure Pd for urging the valve body (112) in a valve opening direction is (Sr−Sv)Pd. The displacement control valve can be made smaller than conventional displacement control valves because (Sr−Sv) is very small.
Description

Patent Document 1 discloses a displacement control valve of a clutchless variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor for controlling a discharge displacement of the compressor by opening and closing a valve hole formed in a communication path between a discharge chamber and a crank chamber of the compressor, the displacement control valve including the valve hole always communicating with the crank chamber, an inside control valve for opening and closing the valve hole by a valve body operated in response to expansion and contraction of a pressure sensing member for sensing a suction pressure, and an electromagnetic solenoid connected to the inside control valve for switching the inside control valve between an operating condition where the valve body opens and closes the valve hole in response to the expansion and contraction of the pressure sensing member and a non-operating condition where the valve body opens the valve hole independently of the expansion and contraction of the pressure sensing member, and the displacement control valve controls the discharge displacement so that a suction pressure and a discharge pressure have a predetermined correlation. ThisPatent Document 1 describes that the displacement control property is expressed by the following equation in a region of Pd>Pd0.
Ps=P 0−(Pd−Pc)S 1 /S 2
Where, - Pd: discharge pressure

- S2: effective cross-sectional area of bellows
- Patent Document 1: JP-A-7-127566
- However, there are the following problems in the displacement control valve disclosed in the above-described
Patent Document 1. - Because the discharge pressure Pd urges the valve body in a direction of valve closing, in order to forcibly open the valve body by degaussing of the electromagnetic solenoid, it is necessary to set the force of a releasing spring of the electromagnetic solenoid at a value of (Pd-31 Ps)S1 or more. In order to forcibly open the valve body in a region with a high discharge pressure Pd, it is necessary to use a releasing spring with a great spring force, and it is necessary to generate a great electromagnetic force for exciting the electromagnetic solenoid and attracting a movable core against the spring force of the releasing spring, and whereby, the electromagnetic solenoid becomes large.
- Accordingly, paying attention to the above-described problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a displacement control valve of a clutchless variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor, which can be made smaller than the displacement control valve disclosed in
Patent Document 1. - To achieve the above-described object, a displacement control valve of a clutchless variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor according to the present invention is provided as a displacement control valve for controlling a discharge displacement of the compressor by opening and closing a communication path between a discharge chamber and a crank chamber of the compressor. The displacement control valve comprises a valve hole formed in the communication path and always communicating with the discharge chamber, an inside control valve for opening and closing the valve hole by a valve body operated in response to expansion and contraction of a pressure sensing member for sensing a suction pressure, and an operation switching device connected to the inside control valve for switching the inside control valve between an operating condition where the valve body opens and closes the valve hole in response to the expansion and contraction of the pressure sensing member and a non-operating condition where the valve body opens the valve hole independently of the expansion and contraction of the pressure sensing member.
- In the present invention, because the valve hole is always communicated with the discharge chamber, the force for urging the valve body in a valve opening direction by a discharge pressure Pd can be decreased as compared with that in the displacement control valve disclosed in the
aforementioned Patent Document 1, and the switching device for forcibly opening the valve body may be made smaller. - In such a displacement control valve according to the present invention, a structure is preferably employed wherein the above-described operation switching device has an electromagnetic solenoid, when the electromagnetic solenoid is excited, the inside control valve becomes the operating condition, and when the electromagnetic solenoid is degaussed, the inside control valve becomes the non-operating condition. In such a structure, because the variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor can be switched to between a displacement control condition and a minimum displacement condition by exciting/degaussing the electromagnetic solenoid, the control unit for the variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor may be simplified.
- Further, in the displacement control valve according to the present invention, it is preferred that the electromagnetic solenoid includes a movable core connected to the inside control valve and a positioning member for positioning the inside control valve at an operating position when the electromagnetic solenoid is excited. By providing such a positioning member, it becomes possible to position the inside control valve at an operating position by exciting the electromagnetic solenoid, and the switching of the variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor to its operating condition becomes possible by the excitation of the electromagnetic solenoid.
- Further, in the displacement control valve according to the present invention, it is preferred that the positioning member is formed by one end of the pressure sensing member and an end surface of a case of the electromagnetic solenoid. By forming the positioning member with one end of the pressure sensing member and the case of the electromagnetic solenoid, it is not necessary to dispose a particular positioning member separately, and the structure of the displacement control valve may be simplified.
- Further, in the displacement control valve according to the present invention, it is preferred that the electromagnetic solenoid includes a releasing spring for urging a movable core in a direction apart from a fixed core, and when the electromagnetic solenoid is degaussed, the inside control valve becomes the non-operating condition by the releasing spring. Because the releasing spring of the electromagnetic solenoid can turn the inside control valve into the non-operating condition, it is not necessary to provide a spring separately for turning the inside control valve into the non-operating condition, and the structure of the displacement control valve may be simplified.
- Further, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the inside control valve includes a pressure sensing rod which is slidably inserted into a hole formed in a valve housing and communicating with the valve hole and which is connected to the valve body, and a cross-sectional area of the pressure sensing rod is set greater than a cross-sectional area of the valve hole. In such a structure, because a control property is realized wherein the suction pressure decreases when the discharge pressure increases, the discharge displacement increases in a high thermal-load region with a high discharge pressure. Therefore, a cooler comprising a variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor with this displacement control valve does not deteriorate in cooling performance even in a high thermal-load region with a high discharge pressure.
- Alternatively, in another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the inside control valve includes a pressure sensing rod which is slidably inserted into a hole formed in a valve housing and communicating with the valve hole and which is connected to the valve body, and a cross-sectional area of the pressure sensing rod is set smaller than a cross-sectional area of the valve hole. In such a structure, because a control property is realized wherein the suction pressure increases when the discharge pressure increases, the discharge displacement decreases in a region of a high discharge pressure. As a result, occurrence of a condition, in which the compressor operates at an excessive load, may be prevented.
- In the displacement control valve of a clutchless variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor according to the present invention, because the valve hole is always communicated with the discharge chamber, the force for urging the valve body in a valve opening direction by a discharge pressure can be decreased as compared with that in the displacement control valve disclosed in the
aforementioned Patent Document 1, and the switching device for forcibly opening the valve body may be made smaller than that in the displacement control valve ofPatent Document 1. Therefore, the displacement control valve of a clutchless variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor according to the present invention can be made smaller than the displacement control valve ofPatent Document 1. -

Onlateral partition wall 104, arod insertion hole 105 communicating withpressure sensing chamber 102 and avalve hole 106 communicating withvalve chamber 103 are formed.Rod insertion hole 105 andvalve hole 106 are disposed on the same axis and communicated with each other. Acommunication hole 107 extending in the radial direction throughlateral partition wall 104 is formed inlateral partition wall 104 passing through the communicating portion betweenrod insertion hole 105 andvalve hole 106. -

pressure sensing chamber 102. One end of apressure sensing rod 110 is connected to oneend 109 a ofbellows assembly 109, and the other end ofpressure sensing rod 110 is slidably inserted intorod insertion hole 105. A small-diameter rod 111 extending from the other end ofpressure sensing rod 110 is inserted intovalve hole 106 at a movable condition with a gap. Aspring 113 for urging avalve body 112 in a direction approachingvalve hole 106 is disposed invalve chamber 103. Insidecontrol valve 100 is formed by a series of structures fromvalve housing 101 tospring 113. - The end portion of
pressure sensing chamber 102 side ofvalve housing 101 ofinside control valve 100 is press fitted into one end ofcase 121 ofelectromagnetic solenoid 120. As aforementioned, O-ring 121 a for formingclosed space 27 c is fitted onto the periphery of the one end portion ofcase 121. -
Electromagnetic solenoid 120 has a fixedcore 122 disposed incase 121, amovable core 123 disposed facing its one end to one end of fixedcore 122, a releasingspring 124 for urgingmovable core 123 in a direction apart from the fixed core, and anelectromagnetic coil 125 surrounding fixedcore 122 andmovable core 123. The space for containingmovable core 123 is communicated withpressure sensing chamber 102, and is in a condition of the same pressure as that inpressure sensing chamber 102. Theother end 109 a ofbellows assembly 109 is connected to the other end ofmovable core 123. Theother end 109 a is disposed so as to be able to engage with an end surface inner edge 121 a near the above-described one end ofcase 121 ofelectromagnetic solenoid 120. - Next, the operation of
displacement control valve 2 will be explained. - In a case where clutchless variable displacement inclined plate-
type compressor 1 is operated at a displacement control condition, as shown inFIGS. 2A and 2B ,movable core 123 is moved toward fixedcore 122 against the urging force of releasingspring 124 by excitingelectromagnetic coil 125, and bellowsassembly 109, ultimately, insidecontrol valve 100, is positioned at its operating position by bringing theother end 109 b ofbellows assembly 109 into contact with end surfaceinner edge 121 b ofcase 121 ofelectromagnetic solenoid 120. Insidecontrol valve 100 becomes its operating condition, in whichvalve body 112 opens and closesvalve hole 106, in response to the expansion and contraction ofbellows assembly 109 which is a pressure sensing member4. - When inside
control valve 100 is in the operating condition, if the suction pressure is lower than a set value, as shown inFIG. 2B , bellowsassembly 109 expands, andvalve body 112 connected tobellows assembly 109 viapressure sensing rod 110 and small-diameter rod 111 opensvalve hole 106 in response to the expansion ofbellows assembly 109. High-pressure refrigerant gas is supplied fromdischarge chamber 22 to crankchamber 17 throughcommunication hole 23 b,communication hole 107,valve hole 106,valve chamber 103,closed space 27 a,communication path 23 c andcommunication path 16 b. The crank chamber pressure increases, the inclination angle of the inclined plate decreases, the discharge displacement of variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor 1 decreases, and the suction pressure gradually increases. - If the suction pressure exceed the set value, as shown in
FIG. 2A , bellows assembly 109 contracts, andvalve body 112 connected tobellows assembly 109 viapressure sensing rod 110 and small-diameter rod 111 closesvalve hole 106 in response to the contraction ofbellows assembly 109. By this, the supply of high-pressure refrigerant gas fromdischarge chamber 22 to crankchamber 17 is stopped. Since orifice path 24 a has an area enough to exhaust blow-by gas, which leaks from cylinder bore 16a to crankchamber 17 whenpiston 15 compresses refrigerant gas in cylinder bore 16 a, intosuction chamber 21, the crank chamber pressure gradually decreases. When the crank chamber pressure decreases, the inclination angle of the inclined plate increases, the discharge displacement of variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor 1 increases, and the suction pressure gradually decreases. - Thus, by the operation of
inside control valve 100, the opening/closing ofvalve hole 106 is repeated so that the suction pressure becomes the set value, and the discharge displacement of variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor 1 is variably controlled. - When
electromagnetic coil 125 is degaussed, as shown inFIG. 2C , theother end 109 b ofbellows assembly 109 moves away from end surfaceinner edge 121 b ofcase 120 ofelectromagnetic solenoid 120 by receiving the urging force of releasingspring 124, bellowsassembly 109 is positioned at the non-operating position, and insidecontrol valve 100 is positioned at its non-operating position. By this, insidecontrol valve 100 is kept at the non-operating condition, wherevalve body 112 opensvalve hole 106, independently from the expansion and contraction ofbellows assembly 109 which is a pressure sensing member. The lifting amount ofvalve body 112 is regulated by the contact of theend 109 a ofbellows assembly 109 withlateral partition wall 104. In this state, high-pressure refrigerant gas is supplied fromdischarge chamber 22 to crankchamber 17, the crank chamber pressure increases, the inclination angle of the inclined plate decreases down to the minimum inclination angle, the discharge displacement of variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor 1 is decreased down to the minimum displacement, and it is maintained at the minimum displacement. Because the discharge displacement of variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor 1 can be minimized by the degaussing ofelectromagnetic coil 125,displacement control valve 2 can be used for a clutchless variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor directly connected to an external drive source without using a clutch. - The control property of
displacement control valve 2 is represented by the following equation (1).
Ps=−(Sr−Sv)Pd/{Sb−(Sr−Sv)}+(f+αSv−F)/{Sb−(Sr−Sv)} (1)
Where, - Pd: discharge pressure
- α: pressure difference between crank chamber and suction chamber
- F: urging force of bellows assembly incorporating a spring
- f: urging force of
spring 113 - Sb: effective cross-sectional area of
bellows assembly 109 - Sv: cross-sectional area of
valve hole 106 - Sr: cross-sectional area of
pressure sensing rod 110 - In
displacement control valve 2, because discharge pressure Pd acts on bothvalve body 112 andpressure sensing rod 110, the force of discharge pressure Pd for urgingvalve body 112 in the valve closing direction is (Sr−Sv)Pd. Because (Sr−Sv) is very small, the (Sr−Sv)Pd is much smaller than PdSv in theaforementioned Patent Document 1. Therefore,displacement control valve 2 can be made smaller that the displacement control valve ofPatent Document 1. - In the displacement control valve of the
aforementioned Patent Document 1, because the gradient of the correlation line of Ps relative to Pd is −-S1/S2, the gradient cannot be changed unless a cross-sectional area S1 of a valve hole or an effective cross-sectional area S2 of a bellows, which are base specifications of a displacement control valve, is changed. Namely, the property of the displacement control cannot be easily changed. On the other hand, indisplacement control valve 2, because the gradient of the correlation line of Ps relative to Pd is −(Sr−Sv)/{Sb−(Sr−Sv)}, if the sectional area Sr ofthe pressure sensing rod is changed, even if the cross-sectional area Sv of the valve hole and the effective cross-sectional area Sb of the bellows assembly, which are base specifications ofdisplacement control valve 2, are not changed, the gradient can be changed. Therefore, the property of the displacement control can be easily changed. - Further, in the displacement control valve of the
aforementioned Patent Document 1, if it is tried to make the displacement control valve smaller without changing the gradient of the correlation line of Ps relative to Pd, ultimately, without changing the property of the displacement control, it is necessary to make SI and S2 smaller simultaneously. If a cross-sectional area S1 of a valve hole is made smaller, the velocity of high-pressure refrigerant gas, flowing into a crank chamber through a valve hole after a valve body is forcibly opened, decreases, the time required for changing the displacement of the inclined plate-type compressor to the minimum displacement increases, and the property of the displacement control deteriorates. Therefore, it is difficult to make it smaller. On the other hand, indisplacement control valve 2, because the gradient of the correlation line of Ps relative to Pd is −(Sr−Sv)/{Sb−(Sr−Sv)}, the effective cross-sectional area Sb of the bellows can be made smaller by changing the cross-sectional area Sr ofpressure sensing rod 110 without changing the cross-sectional area Sv ofvalve hole 106. Therefore, it is easy to make it smaller. - Because
displacement control valve 2 can switch clutchless variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor 1 between a displacement control condition and a minimum displacement condition by excitation/degaussing ofelectromagnetic solenoid 120, by using thisdisplacement control valve 2, the control unit for variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor 1 may be simplified. - Further, in
displacement control valve 2, because provided is the positioning member formed by theother end 109 b ofbellows assembly 109 and the end surfaceinner edge 121 b ofcase 121 ofelectromagnetic solenoid 120, it is possible to position insidecontrol valve 100 at its operating position by the excitation ofelectromagnetic solenoid 120, and it is possible to switch variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor 1 to the displacement control condition by the excitation ofelectromagnetic solenoid 120. Indisplacement control valve 2, because the positioning member is formed by theother end 109 b ofbellows assembly 109 and the end surfaceinner edge 121 b ofcase 121 ofelectromagnetic solenoid 120, it is not necessary to provide a particular positioning member separately, and the valve structure is simplified. - Further, in
displacement control valve 2, because releasingspring 124 ofelectromagnetic solenoid 120 turns insidecontrol valve 100 to the non-operating condition, it is not necessary to provide a spring for turning insidecontrol valve 100 to the non-operating condition separately, and the valve structure is simplified. - In
displacement control valve 2, when the cross-sectional area Sr ofpressure sensing rod 110 is set greater than the cross-sectional area Sv of the valve hole. as shown inFIG. 3A , because the control property is realized wherein the suction pressure Ps decreases when the discharge pressure Pd increases, the discharge displacement of variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor 1 increases in a high thermal-load region with a high discharge pressure. Therefore, a cooler comprising variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor 1 withdisplacement control valve 2 does not deteriorate in cooling performance even in a high thermal-load region with a high discharge pressure. - On the other hand, when the cross-sectional area Sr of
pressure sensing rod 110 is set smaller than the cross-sectional area Sv of the valve hole. as shown inFIG. 3B , because the control property is realized wherein the suction pressure Ps increases when the discharge pressure Pd increases, the discharge displacement of variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor 1 decreases in a region of a high discharge pressure. As a result, occurrence of a condition, in which variable displacement inclined plate-type compressor 1 operates at an excessive load and it may be damaged, may be prevented. - In the above-described embodiment, although the positioning member is formed by the
other end 109 b ofbellows assembly 109 and the end surfaceinner edge 121 b ofcase 121 ofelectromagnetic solenoid 120, the positioning member may be formed by the attractive portions ofmovable core 123 and fixedcore 122. Moreover, an adjusting member for adjusting the urging force ofspring 113 from outside may be provided. - The present invention can be applied broadly for displacement control valves of clutchless variable displacement inclined plate-type compressors. In particular, it is suitable as a displacement control valve for a compressor provided in a refrigeration cycle of an air conditioning system for vehicles.
