The driving motor may be, for example, an induction motor, which has a simple structure, low cost, and is easily handled. However, slippage between the stator and the rotor of a motor can degrade performance in an induction motor. Further, induction current flow into the rotor generates heat, which lowers efficiency due to thermal loss.

FIGS. 1-8 . Although a rotary compressor is presented for ease of discussion, it is well understood that a motor as embodied and broadly described herein may be applied to other types of compressors and/or other applications. - Some rotary compressors have used a chlorofluorocarbon (CFC)-based refrigerant such as for example,
CFC 11,CFC 12, CFC 113, CFC 114, and CFC 115. However, the use of these CFC-based refrigerants has been restricted worldwide, and thus HFC-based refrigerants, such as, for example, CFC 134 a (1,1,1-tetrafluoroethane, CH2FCF3) has replaced many of the earlier CFC-based refrigerants. However, since HFC-based refrigerants have different chemical structure, they are not as easily mixed with lubrication fluids, such as, for example, oil, and have inferior abrasion resistance. Accordingly, when an HFC-based refrigerant is used in a compressor, performance of the compressor is degraded. - The exemplary rotary compressor shown in
FIG. 1 includes ahermetic casing 10 to which a refrigerant suction pipe (SP) and a refrigerant discharge pipe (DP) are connected, adriving motor 20 disposed at an upper portion of thecasing 10, and acompression part 30 disposed at a lower portion of thecasing 10. In order to ensure a continuous, adequate supply to oil to friction components of the compressor, oil should be filled in the casting up to a height above acylinder 31. - The
casing 10 includes abody 11 having a substantially cylindrical shape, with adriving motor 20 and acompression part 30 provided at upper and lower portions of the casing, and anupper cap 12 and alower cap 13 which cover upper and lower ends of thebody 11, respectively. A volume (V) from an upper end of the inner circumferential surface of theupper cap 12 to an upper end of the stator of the drivingmotor 20 is preferably formed to be more than 5000 mm3, thereby minimizing oil leakage. - As shown in
FIGS. 1 and 2 , thedriving motor 20 includes astator 21 fixed to an inner portion of thecasing 10 which receives power from an external source. Arotor 22 is disposed in thestator 21, with a gap therebetween, and arotation shaft 23 is coupled to therotor 22 so as to transmit a rotational force from the drivingmotor 20 to thecompression part 30. Therotation shaft 23 may be coupled to therotor 22 by pressfit, shrinkage fit, or other coupling methods as appropriate. - The
stator 21 includes astator laminator 25 which has a cylindrical shape so as to rotatably position therotor 22 at the center thereof. Acoil 26 is wound on thestator laminator 25 and connected to an external power source. Thestator laminator 25 may form a ring shaped magnetic path, with a plurality of protrudingpoles 25 a extending from an inner circumferential surface of the magnetic path at equal intervals. In certain embodiments, a distance between an upper end of thestator laminator 25 to a lower surface of an upper bearing plate, ormain bearing 32 is approximately 110˜140 mm. In certain embodiments, a height difference between a center of arotor laminator 27 in a shaft direction and a center of thestator laminator 25 in a shaft direction is within the range of −2˜3 mm, thereby preventing physical interference between thestator 21 and therotor 22 due to an eccentric load on therotation shaft 23. - The
stator laminator 25 may include arotor insertion hole 25 b having a substantially circular shape at its center, with a plurality of protrudingfixing portions 25 c and cut-passages 25 d alternately formed along an outer circumferential surface of thestator laminator 25 so as to form a gas passage F with thecasing 10. In certain embodiments, the protruding fixingportions 25 c and the cut-passages 25 d may be symmetrical with each other, with the same interval therebetween. For example, a circumferential length between the protrudingfixing portions 25 c may be equal to a circumferential length between the cut-passages 25 d so as to minimize any deformation of thestator laminator 25. - As shown in
FIG. 3 , a ratio (d1/w1) between a diameter (d1) of therotor insertion hole 25 b and a width (w1) of thestator laminator 25 may be greater than or equal to 2. Additionally, an angle θ formed between both ends of the protrudingfixing portion 25 c and a center of thestator 21 may be 15°˜35°. In certain embodiments, at least two cut-passages 25 d are formed so that a ratio (QA0/QA1) between a sum (QA0) of a circumferential length of each cut-passage 25 d and a sum (QA1) of a circumferential length of each protrudingfixing portion 25 c is 0.2˜0.8. - The
coil 26 may be successively wound on each of theprotruding poles 25 a of thestator laminator 25. Thecoil 26 may be implemented by forming an enamel coating layer having a separation transition temperature more than approximately 120° C. on an outer circumferential surface of a copper wire. An insulation film formed of, for example, a crystalline plastic film having a separation transition temperature more than approximately 50° C., may be interposed between an outer circumferential surface of thecoil 26 and an inner circumferential surface of thestator laminator 25 contacting thecoil 26. - The
rotor 22 includes arotor laminator 27. In certain embodiments, therotor laminator 27 may be formed from a plurality of thin steel plates laminated in a shaft direction, with anupper end plate 28A and alower end plate 28B disposed at upper and lower ends of therotor laminator 27, respectively. Each steel plate of therotor laminator 27 is provided with a shaft hole for insertion of therotation shaft 23. In the embodiment shown inFIG. 4 , each steel plate may be provided with a plurality ofmagnetic flux barriers 27 a formed in a circumferential direction and a radius direction, each having a substantially circular shape. A width (t1) from an outer circumferential surface of the steel plate to each end of themagnetic flux barriers 27 a is uniform. A width (t2) of themagnetic flux barrier 27 a in the radius direction, and a width (t3) between adjacentmagnetic flux barriers 27 a in the radius direction each increase towards the center of the steel plate. As shown inFIGS. 7 and 8 , a gap (t4) of approximately 0.4˜0.8 mm may be formed between an inner circumferential surface of thestator laminator 25 and an outer circumferential surface of therotor laminator 27 so as to improve efficiency of themotor 22. The upper andlower end plates 28 a, 28 b are respectively formed to have a thickness (t5) of approximately 1˜4 mm. Also, a gap (t6) between thelower end plate 28B and an upper end of themain bearing 32 may be 2˜6 mm so as to reduce an overall length of therotor 22 and prevent interference between thestator 21 and therotor 22 due to an eccentric load on therotation shaft 23. - A
balance weight 29 eccentric at a certain angle in a circumferential direction is formed on theupper end plate 28A, either integrally or at a later point in fabrication. A thickness (t7) of thebalance weight 29 may be less than two times the thickness (t5) of theupper end plate 28A so as to enhance reliability of themotor 20. - The upper and
lower end plates rotor 22 so as to form a path through therotor 22 in the upper and lower directions. - The
rotation shaft 23 may have a substantially circular section so as to fit into the shaft hole of therotor 22. Anoil hole 23 a penetrates the length of theshaft 23, with anoil feeder 23 b disposed at the lowest end of theoil hole 23 a for drawing oil in from thecasing 10. Therotation shaft 23 may be coupled to the shaft hole of therotor 22 by numerous methods including, for example shrinkage fit of an outer diameter or shrinkage fit of an inner diameter. Deformation of the outer circumferential surface of therotor 22, which in some instances is relatively weak, can be minimized by shrinkage fit of an inner diameter. - The
rotation shaft 23 may include aneccentric portion 23 c coupled to arolling piston 34 at a lower outer circumferential surface thereof. In certain embodiments, theeccentric portion 23 c is formed so that a ratio between a diameter (D1) of the shaft without theeccentric portion 23 c and a diameter (D2) of theshaft 23 with theeccentric portion 23 c can be 16:20˜18:30. In certain embodiments, theeccentric portion 23 c is formed so that an eccentric amount thereof can be within a range of 1.5˜5 mm. - As shown in
FIGS. 1 and 8 , thecompression part 30 includes acylinder 31 disposed in thecasing 10 and having a ring shape, amain bearing 32 and asub bearing 33 which cover upper and lower ends of thecylinder 31 to define a compression space and support therotation shaft 23, and arolling piston 34 rotatably coupled to theeccentric portion 23 c of therotation shaft 23 so as to compress a refrigerant within the compression space. Thecompression part 30 also includes avane 35 coupled to thecylinder 31 so as to be movable in a radius direction of thecylinder 31 and contact an outer circumferential surface of the rollingpiston 34. Thevane 35 divides the compression space of thecylinder 31 into a suction chamber and a compression chamber. Adischarge valve 36 is coupled to an end of adischarge port 32 a provided at a middle portion of themain bearing 32 so as to control the flow of refrigerant discharged from the compression chamber, and amuffler 37 is provided on an upper surface of themain bearing 32. - In certain embodiments, the
cylinder 31 has a ring shape with open upper and lower sides. Themain bearing 32 and the sub bearing 33 each include a shaft hole for supporting therotation shaft 23, and may have a disc shape to cover the open upper and lower sides of thecylinder 31. In certain embodiments, thecylinder 31, themain bearing 32, and thesub bearing 33 may be formed of gray pig iron, the rollingpiston 34 may be formed of an alloy of molybdenum, nickel, and chrome, and thevane 35 may be formed of a high speed steel having undergone a nitriding process, thereby minimizing abrasion of the compression part. Other materials for these components may also be appropriate. - In certain embodiments, a diameter (D3) of the
discharge port 32 a may be approximately 5 mm when a volume of the compression chamber of thecylinder 31 is approximately 6 cc, and approximately 8 mm when the volume of the compression space is approximately 9 cc, thereby allowing for stable discharge of refrigerant. Themuffler 37 may be coupled to an upper surface of themain bearing 32 by a bolt or other suitable fastener. For stability, a gap (t8) between an upper surface of themuffler 37 and a lower surface of thecoil 26 is greater than 3.2 mm. - Operation of a rotary compressor as embodied and broadly described herein will now be explained.
- When power is supplied to the
stator 21 of the drivingmotor 20 and therotor 22 is rotated, therotation shaft 23 rotates to transmit a rotation force to thecompression part 30. The rollingpiston 34 rotates eccentrically in thecylinder 31, and refrigerant is drawn into a suction chamber through a refrigerant suction pipe SP connected to thecylinder 31. Then, the refrigerant is compressed and discharged into thecasing 10 through thedischarge port 32 a. - In certain embodiments, the driving
motor 20 is a synchronous reluctance motor which generates a rotation force by being synchronously rotated by a reluctance torque in a direction such that magnetic resistance is minimized. Accordingly, slippage between thestator 21 and therotor 22 may be greatly reduced. Additionally, when an induction current flows into therotor 22, thermal loss from therotor 22 may be reduced to enhance efficiency of themotor 20. - Oil having acceptable mixture characteristics with a given refrigerant may be used, thereby preventing a ‘double-separation’ phenomenon in which the refrigerant and the oil are separated from each other at a sliding or friction portion of the
compression part 30. Accordingly, frictional losses and abrasion of thecompression part 30 can be reduced. - In order to ensure a continuous supply of oil to the
compression part 30, oil is filled in thecasing 10 to a height higher than thecylinder 31. An upper space of thecasing 10 is established so that the refrigerant and oil discharged from thecompression part 30 is not leaked to any portion of the refrigerating cycle after being separated in the inner space of thecasing 10. Accordingly, abrasion of thecompression part 30 due to oil leakage can be prevented. - Further, by minimizing the length of the rotor by sizing the various components and gaps therebetween as discussed above, interference between the
stator 21 and therotor 22 due to an eccentric load therotation shaft 23 can be prevented. - In order to ensure that contraction of the
stator laminator 25 in the radius direction is uniform if thestator 21 is shrinkage fit into thecasing 10, thestator laminator 25 may be symmetrically formed, and a width of thestator laminator 25 and a length of the protruding fixingportion 25 c may be sized to maintain a certain strength. Accordingly, therotor insertion hole 25 b of thestator laminator 25 maintains a substantially circular shape, and an air gap (t4) between thestator 21 and therotor 22 is uniformly maintained, thereby preventing interference between therotor 22 and thestator 21, and enhancing reliability of the drivingmotor 20 and the compressor. - The
coil 26 may be implemented by forming an enamel coating layer on an outer circumferential surface of a copper wire, thereby preventing a voltage loss due to a hydrolysis, crack, softening, expansion, and breakdown. Also, an insulation film formed of a crystalline plastic film may be interposed between thecoil 26 and an inner circumferential surface of the protrudingpole 25 a of thestator 21, thereby preventing any lowering in strength, tensile characteristics, or electrical insulating characteristics and enhancing reliability of the drivingmotor 20. - As discussed above, in certain embodiments, the
rotor laminator 27 has a plurality of steel plates, and each of themagnetic flux barriers 27 a has the same width (t1) from each end thereof to an outer circumferential surface of the steel plate, thereby facilitating fabrication. - Further, a width (t2) of the
magnetic flux barrier 27 a in the radius direction, and a width (t3) between adjacentmagnetic flux barriers 27 a in the radius direction are increased towards the center, thereby minimizing deformation of the steel plate when therotation shaft 23 is shrinkage fit. - The rotor of the rotary compressor in accordance with another embodiment will now be explained.
- In the aforementioned embodiment shown in
FIG. 4 , the width (t1) from each end of themagnetic flux barriers 27 a to an outer circumferential surface of the steel plate is uniform. However, in the embodiment shown inFIG. 5 , the width (t1) from each end of themagnetic flux barriers 27 a to an outer circumferential surface of the steel plate is increased towards the center. - The rotor of a rotary compressor in accordance with another embodiment will now be explained.
- In the aforementioned embodiments shown in
FIGS. 4 and 5 , each of themagnetic flux barriers 27 a is formed as one through hole. However, in the embodiment shown inFIG. 6 , abridge 27 b for connecting an inner surface and an outer surface of themagnetic flux barrier 27 a in the radius direction is provided. Herein, the width (t1) between an end of each of themagnetic flux barriers 27 a and an outer circumferential surface of the steel plate can be uniform as shown inFIG. 4 , or can be different from each other as shown inFIG. 5 . - The
casing 10, the drivingmotor 20, and thecompression part 30 according to the second and third embodiments are similar to those of the first embodiment, and thus their details will be omitted. - When the width (t1) between an end of each of the
magnetic flux barriers 27 a and an outer circumferential surface of the steel plate is increased towards the center as shown inFIG. 5 , or when abridge 27 b is formed at a middle portion of each of themagnetic flux barriers 27 a as shown inFIG. 6 , the strength of the steel plate is enhanced, thus preventing thermal deformation of the steel plate. - In the preceding discussion, the aforementioned embodiments have been applied to a single rotary compressor having one cylinder. However, these embodiments may also be applied to a double-type rotary compressor as shown, for example, in
FIG. 9 . This compressor includes afirst cylinder 31 and asecond cylinder 41 which may have afirst compression part 30 and asecond compression part 40, respectively. Gas suction pipes SP1 and SP2 coupled to inlets of thecylinders FIG. 10 , the gas suction pipes SP1 and SP2 may be directly connected to the refrigeration connection pipe P without the accumulator A. - Each middle portion of the gas suction pipes SP1 and SP2 may be bent with different curvatures R1 and R2 so as to connect the
cylinders compression parts second compression part 40 far from the accumulator A is greater than the curvature R1 of the first gas suction pipe SP1, thereby enhancing reliability of the gas suction pipe SP2. - In the double-type rotary compressor, the length of the
casing 10 may be longer than that of the single rotary compressor. Accordingly, a thickness (t9) of thebase plate 1 for supporting thecasing 10 on an installation surface may be increased. For instance, if a length L1 of thecasing 10 is more than two times of an outer diameter (D4), the thickness (t9) of thebase plate 1 may be 2.6˜4.0 mm to lend stability to the compressor. - When the rotary compressor in accordance with embodiments as broadly described herein is applied to an air conditioner, a thermal loss due to slippage of the driving motor is decreased, thus enhancing the function of the rotary compressor and the air conditioner. Furthermore, losses due to emissions are decreased, thus enhancing the function of the rotary compressor and the air conditioner having the same.
