motor element 7,rotor 6 is rotated andcrank shaft 17 is driven to rotate. At this time, an eccentric rotation movement ofeccentric shaft 19 is transmitted topiston 20 via connectingrod 21, and thereby piston 20 reciprocates incompressing chamber 11. - Following the reciprocating movement of
piston 20,refrigerant 9 inhermetic container 1 is sucked fromsuction muffler 16 into compressingchamber 11 and at the same time,low pressure refrigerant 9 flows intohermetic container 1 from a cooling system (not shown) thoughsuction tube 3. Refrigerant 9 sucked into compressingchamber 11 is compressed and then discharged intohead 15 by way ofdischarge valve system 14 ofvalve plate 13. Furthermore, high pressure gas discharged intohead 15 is discharged fromdischarge tube 2 into a cooling system (not shown). - However, there is a problem in a conventional hermetic compressor that refrigerating capacity and efficiency vary easily.
- The present invention relates to a hermetic compressor having a cylinder provided with a discharge valve system. The discharge valve system includes a discharge reed having an opening/closing portion and a discharge reed holding portion; a spring reed having a movable portion and a spring reed holding portion; and a stopper having a regulation portion and stopper holding portion. The discharge reed, the spring reed and the stopper are fixed to a pedestal of a valve plate in this order. In a spring reed bending portion provided in the movable portion, the movable portion is bent toward the direction of a valve seat. The tip portion of the movable portion is brought into contact with a plate contact portion. Space is provided between the movable portion of the spring reed and the opening/closing portion of the discharge reed, so that the both portions are not brought into close contact with each other with oil, thus preventing the delay in closing of the discharge reed. Furthermore, since the distance of the space is stabilized in a state in which the tip portion is brought into contact with the plate contact portion, an effect of stabilizing the spring property of the discharge valve system is obtained.
- The hermetic compressor of the present invention can prevent the discharge reed and the spring reed from being brought into dose contact with each other and stabilize the spring property of the discharge valve system. Therefore, the present invention can provide a stable hermetic compressor with high energy efficiency.

FIG. 9 is a side sectional view showing a discharge valve system of a conventional hermetic compressor. -
FIG. 10 is an exploded view showing a discharge valve system of a conventional hermetic compressor. - The present inventors have found that in a conventional hermetic compressor, right after the hermetic compressor starts to be operated, a phenomenon sometimes occurs, in which a lower refrigerating capacity as compared with a usual refrigerating capacity is maintained for a relatively long time. The present inventors have succeeded in elucidating the mechanism of
discharge reed 26 andspring reed 27 by analyzing the behaviors thereof. Therefore, firstly, the mechanism is described with reference toFIGS. 7 to 10 . InFIG. 9 , the direction in which the discharge reed is closed is represented by “In” direction tocylinder 10 and the direction in which the discharge reed is opened is represented by “Out” direction tocylinder 10. - At the starting time of the hermetic compressor when this low refrigerating capacity phenomenon easily occur,
oil 4 together withrefrigerant 9 returns from a refrigerating cycle (not shown). Then, sinceoil 4 together withrefrigerant 9 is compressed and discharged,much oil 4 intervenes betweendischarge reed 26 andspring reed 27. - Furthermore, in general, when a hermetic compressor starts to be operated, a suction pressure is high,
refrigerant 9 with a relatively high density is compressed and discharged until the pressure inhermetic container 1 is reduced, and large load is applied to opening/dosingportion 31 ofdischarge reed 26. On the other hand, since the displacement of opening/closingportion 31 ofdischarge reed 26 is regulated byregulation portion 36 ofstopper 28, opening/closingportion 31 ofdischarge reed 26 is strongly pressed byhigh density refrigerant 9 towardmovable portion 33 ofspring reed 27 that is disposed between opening/dosing portion 31 ofdischarge reed 26 andregulation portion 36 ofstopper 28. - Since large pressing load is applied as mentioned above, opening/closing
portion 31 ofdischarge reed 26 andmovable portion 33 ofspring reed 27 are brought into dose contact with each other byoil 4. That is to say,discharge reed 26 andspring reed 27 are integrated with each other and carry out an opening/dosing operation as if one thick sheet of discharge reed carries out the opening/dosing operation. - Herein,
movable portion 33 ofspring reed 27 is bent toward the opening direction (“Out” direction) ofdischarge reed 26 at bendingportion 34. As a result, the spring force ofspring reed 27 acts in the opening direction (“Out” direction) opposite to dosing direction (“In” direction) in which dischargereed 26 is closed, so thatdischarge reed 26 is pulled toward the opening direction (“Out” direction) and thus timing of dosing is delayed. - As a result, when
piston 20 shifts to the suction stroke in compressingchamber 11 after the upper dead center, the opening time ofdischarge reed 26 is longer. During the time, inside compressingchamber 11, high pressure refrigerant flows backward and substantial displacement volume of the piston is decreased. Consequently, a low refrigerating capacity phenomenon occurs. - During the occurrence of this low refrigerating capacity phenomenon, the efficiency of a hermetic compressor is bad. Consequently, power consumption is increased and at the same time, cooling of refrigerating equipment on which this hermetic compressor is mounted is decelerated.
- Furthermore, since the space between
movable portion 33 ofspring reed 27 and opening/closingportion 31 ofdischarge reed 26 is adjusted by adjusting a bending angle of bendingportion 34 ofspring reed 27, the space betweenmovable portion 33 ofspring reed 27 and opening/dosing portion 31 ofdischarge reed 26 varies easily. Whendischarge reed 26 is opened, the displacement varies easily untildischarge reed 26 is brought into contact withspring reed 27. That is to say, an inflection point, in which the spring force ofdischarge reed 26 shifts to the synthetic spring force ofdischarge reed 26 andspring reed 27, varies, thus causing variation in the spring property. - Therefore, it is thought that the opening amount and dosing timing of
discharge reed 26 easily vary, and as a result, refrigerating capacity and efficiency may vary. - The present invention has been made based on the elucidation of the mechanism of the above-mentioned low refrigerating capacity phenomenon, and the present invention provides a stable hermetic compressor in which delay in closing of a discharge reed hardly occurs and energy efficiency is high.
- The hermetic compressor of the present invention includes a valve plate having a discharge valve system at the outer side of a cylinder. The discharge valve system includes a discharge hole formed in the valve plate; a valve seat provided around the discharge hole on the outer side of the valve plate; a pedestal formed in substantially the same height as that of the valve seat on the outer side of the valve plate; a plate contact portion formed on the valve plate at a position that is higher than the valve seat on the outer side of the valve plate; a discharge reed made of a plate spring material having the opening/closing portion covering the discharge hole in a way of capable of opening and closing thereof, a spring reed made of a plate spring material provided at the outer side of the discharge reed; and a stopper provided at the outer side of the spring reed. The spring reed has a spring reed bending portion and a tip portion in the movable portion. In the spring reed bending portion, the spring reed is bent toward the direction of the valve seat and the tip portion thereof is brought into contact with the plate contact portion.
- Even when oil intervenes between the discharge reed and the spring reed and excessive load is applied to the discharge reed at the starting time, etc., since space is formed with respect to the discharge reed in the position corresponding to the discharge reed opening/closing portion, close contact due to the intervening oil can be prevented. Furthermore, since the distance of the space is stabilized in a state which is brought into contact with the plate contact portion, the spring property of the discharge valve system can be stabilized. Thus, a stable hermetic compressor with high energy efficiency can be provided.
- Hereinafter, an exemplary embodiment of the present invention is described with reference to drawings.

InFIGS. 1 and 2 , the direction in which the discharge reed is closed is represented by “In” direction to the cylinder and the direction in which the discharge reed is opened is represented by “Out” direction to the cylinder. - In
FIGS. 1 to 6 ,hermetic container 101 includesdischarge tube 102 andsuction tube 103 connected to a cooling system (not shown) and storesoil 104 in its bottom portion. Furthermore,hermetic container 101 accommodatesmotor element 107 composed ofstator 105 androtor 106 andcompressor element 108 driven bymotor element 107. The inside ofhermetic container 101 is filled withrefrigerant 109. It is preferable that refrigerant 109 to be used is refrigerant that measures with environmental problem of recent years and is other than specified chlorofluorocarbons. For example, R134a, natural refrigerant R600a, and the like, are preferable asrefrigerant 109. - Next, a main configuration of
compressor element 108 is described. -
Cylinder 110 includes substantiallycylindrical compressing chamber 111 andbearing 112.Valve plate 113 hasdischarge valve system 114 on the outer side of cylinder 110 (side of “Out”) so as to close compressingchamber 111.Head 115 coversvalve plate 113.Suction muffler 116 is opened inhermetic container 101 at one end and communicates to compressingchamber 111 at another end. Crankshaft 117 hasmain shaft 118 andeccentric shaft 119, which is supported by bearing 112 ofcylinder 110 and press-fitted and fixed intostator 105.Piston 120 is inserted into compressingchamber 111 in a way in which it can sidably reciprocate and connected toeccentric shaft 119 via connectingrod 121. - Next,
discharge valve system 114 provided oncompressor element 108 is described referring toFIG. 3 . -
Valve plate 113 hasrecess 122 at the outer side of cylinder 110 (side of “Out”).Recess 122 is provided withdischarge hole 123 penetrating throughvalve plate 113 and communicating tocylinder 110, and withvalve seat 124 surroundingdischarge hole 123.Valve plate 113 is further provided withpedestal 125 formed on the side of “Out” in substantially the same plane asvalve seat 124, and withplate contact portion 126.Plate contact portion 126 is formed substantially parallel to a plane includingvalve seat 124 andpedestal 125 in the cross sectional view. -
Discharge reed 127,spring reed 128 andstopper 129 are fixed topedestal 125 byrivet 130 in this order. Discharge reed ( as a first plate spring) 127 is formed of a tongue-shaped plate spring material and includes dischargereed holding portion 131 fixed topedestal 125 and opening/closing portion 132 for opening and dosing thevalve seat 124. - Spring reed (as a second plate spring) 128 is formed of a tongue-shaped plate spring material and includes spring
reed holding portion 133 fixed topedestal 125 andmovable portion 134.Movable portion 134 is bent toward the direction of valve seat 124 (“In” direction) at springreed bending portion 135 provided inmovable portion 134.Tip portion 136 is brought into contact withplate contact portion 126 of the valve plate. -
Stopper 129 includesstopper holding portion 137 fixed topedestal 125 andregulation portion 138 for regulating the movement ofdischarge reed 127.Regulation portion 138 ofstopper 129 is formed substantially parallel to a plane includingvalve seat 124 andpedestal 125. That is to say, the surface ofregulation portion 138 is substantially parallel tovalve seat 124 andpedestal 125. - Height of
plate contact portion 126 provided invalve plate 113 is set so thatmovable portion 134 ofspring reed 128 has space betweenmovable portion 134 and opening/closing portion 132 ofdischarge reed 127 and betweenmovable portion 134 andregulation portion 138 ofstopper 129 stably. - Opening/
dosing portion 132 ofdischarge reed 127 is bent toward the direction ofvalve seat 124 at dischargereed bending portion 139. - Between
valve seat 124 andpedestal 125, a portion that is deeper thanpedestal 125 is provided asclearance groove 140. Dischargereed bending portion 139 is located in a region ofclearance groove 140 at the outer side ofclearance groove 140. That is to say, a concave portion formed on the surface ofvalve plate 113forms clearance groove 140 and the bottom surface of the concave portion is formed lower in height thanvalve seat 124 andpedestal 125. -
Regulation portion 138 ofstopper 129 is provided at the tip withstopper contact portion 141 formed of a surface that bends towardspring reed 128.Stopper contact portion 141 is formed substantially parallel to a plane includingvalve seat 124 andpedestal 125. That is to say,stopper contact portion 141 is substantially parallel toplate contact portion 126. - Hereinafter, an operation and effect of the above-configured hermetic compressor is described.
- When electricity is supplied to
motor element 107,rotor 106 is rotated and crankshaft 117 is driven to rotate. At this time, an eccentric rotation movement ofeccentric shaft 119 is transmitted topiston 120 via connectingrod 121, and therebypiston 120 reciprocates in compressingchamber 111. - Following the reciprocating movement of
piston 120, refrigerant 109 inhermetic container 101 is sucked fromsuction muffler 116 into compressingchamber 111 and at the same time, low pressure refrigerant 109 flows intohermetic container 101 from a cooling system (not shown) thoughsuction tube 103.Refrigerant 109 sucked into compressingchamber 111 is compressed and then discharged intohead 115 by way ofdischarge valve system 114 ofvalve plate 113. Furthermore, high pressure gas discharged intohead 115 is discharged fromdischarge tube 102 into a cooling system (not shown). - Herein, at the starting time of a hermetic compressor,
oil 104 together with refrigerant 109 returns from a refrigerating cycle (not shown). Then, sinceoil 104 together withrefrigerant 109 is compressed and discharged,much oil 104 intervenes betweendischarge reed 127 andspring reed 128. - Furthermore, in general, when a hermetic compressor started to be operated, a suction pressure is high. Therefore, refrigerant 109 with a relatively high density is compressed and discharged until the pressure of
hermetic container 1 is reduced, and large load is applied to opening/dosing portion 132 ofdischarge reed 127. - On the other hand, since the displacement of opening/
closing portion 132 ofdischarge reed 127 is regulated byregulation portion 138 ofstopper 129, opening/closing portion 132 ofdischarge reed 127 is strongly pressed byhigh density refrigerant 109 towardmovable portion 134 ofspring reed 128 disposed between opening/dosing portion 132 ofdischarge reed 127 andregulation portion 138 ofstopper 129. As a result, opening/closing portion 132 ofdischarge reed 127 andmovable portion 134 ofspring reed 128 tend to be brought into close contact with each other withoil 104. - However, in the first exemplary embodiment, since spring
reed bending portion 135 is formed inmovable portion 134 ofspring reed 128, even whenspring reed 128 is pressed to the “Out” side, between opening/closing portion 132 ofdischarge reed 127 andmovable portion 134 ofspring reed 128, as shown inFIG. 5 ,space 142 is formed. Sincespace 142 exists, even ifmovable portion 134 ofspring reed 128 and opening/closing portion 132 ofdischarge reed 127 are brought into close contact with each other, they can easily be peeled off from each other. That is to say, the close contact is not continued andspring reed 128 anddischarge reed 127 are not operated integrally. Therefore, delay in closing can be prevented. - As a result, a low refrigerating capacity phenomenon caused by the backflow of high pressure refrigerant into compressing
chamber 111 can be prevented. - When
spring reed 128 is not pressed toward the “Out” side, as shown inFIG. 3 ,tip portion 136 ofspring reed 128 is brought into contact withplate contact portion 126 provided invalve plate 113. Therefore,movable portion 134 ofspring reed 128 can have space stably betweenmovable portion 134 and opening/closing portion 132 ofdischarge reed 127. Whendischarge reed 127 opens in the “Out” direction, the displacement until it is brought into contact withspring reed 128 becomes stable. That it to say, it is possible to suppress variation in the inflection points at which the spring force ofdischarge reed 127 shifts to the synthetic spring force ofdischarge reed 127 andspring reed 128, thus stabilizing the spring property. - As a result, variation in opening amount of
discharge reed 127 and closing timing is suppressed and thus the refrigerating capacity and efficiency can be stabilized. - Therefore, it is possible to provide a stable hermetic compressor having small variation and high energy efficiency.
- Furthermore, since opening/
closing portion 132 ofdischarge reed 127 is bent towardvalve seat 124 at dischargereed bending portion 139, spring force for pressing tovalve seat 124 is applied to opening/closing portion 132 ofdischarge reed 127. - Therefore, opening/
closing portion 132 ofdischarge reed 127 can be prevented from floating fromvalve seat 124, and thus more excellent sealing property can be maintained. Thus, it is possible to provide a hermetic compressor with higher energy efficiency. - Furthermore, between
valve seat 124 andpedestal 125, a recess portion that is deeper thanpedestal 125 is provided asclearance groove 140. Since dischargereed bending portion 139 is located corresponding to the outer side ofclearance groove 140, it is possible to preventclearance groove 140 from being pressed bypedestal 125 and spring force ofspring reed 128. As a result, the force by which opening/closing portion 132 ofdischarge reed 127 is pressed tovalve seat 124 can be obtained stably. Sealing property between opening/closing portion 132 andvalve seat 124 is improved. Thus, efficiency can be further improved. - Furthermore, according to the exemplary embodiment,
regulation portion 138 ofstopper 129 is provided withstopper contact portion 141 bending towardspring reed 128. Therefore, even afterspring reed 128 is brought into contact withstopper contact portion 141,discharge reed 127 can be further displaced. As a result, the spring property ofdischarge reed 127 has two inflection points as shown inFIG. 6 , three stages of properties can be obtained. - In
FIG. 6 , first inflection point P1 corresponds to a point at which opening/closing portion 132 ofreed 127 is brought into contact withmovable portion 134 ofspring reed 128. After first inflection point P1 and before second inflection point P2, synthetic spring force of opening/dosing portion 132 ofspring reed 127 andmovable portion 134 ofspring reed 128 can be obtained. - Second inflection point P2 corresponds to a point at which
movable portion 134 ofspring reed 128 is brought into contact withstopper contact portion 141 ofstopper 129. After second inflection point P2, a supporting mechanism of the spring reed is changed from cantilever type to dual support type, so that the spring force is further increased. - As mentioned above, since two inflection points and three stages of properties are obtained, as the opening amount of
discharge reed 127 becomes larger, the spring force works more strongly and the closing speed is increased. Thus, even in a high circulation region in which dischargereed 127 opens largely, few delay in closing occurs. It is possible to provide a hermetic compressor with high energy efficiency. - As mentioned above, the present invention can provide a stable hermetic compressor having high energy efficiency in which the delay in dosing of discharge reed hardly occurs even in a case where the circulation amount of refrigerant is relatively large. Therefore, the hermetic compressor in accordance with the present invention can be used for refrigerating and air-conditioning equipment using CO2 refrigerant.
