  • the gate rotor 3 is used in a screw compressor and the teeth 31 of the gate rotor main body 30 mesh with the screw rotor 2 and the casing 1 supports the shaft 40 , then, during operation of the compressor, even if the thermal expansion of the screw rotor 2 steadily increases while the thermal expansion of the casing 1 decreases and thereby the distance between the axis 2 a of the screw rotor 2 and the axis 3 a of the gate rotor 3 (i.e., the axis 40 a of the shaft 40 ) changes, the gate rotor main body 30 slides on the pedestal 43 of the shaft 40 , and therefore an appropriate positional relationship, namely, an appropriate distance, is maintained between the screw rotor 2 and the gate rotor main body 30 .
  • the gate rotor main body 30 is prevented from biting into the screw rotor 2 , which reduces the amount of wear of the gate rotor main body 30 and prevents the performance of the compressor from declining.
  • useless motivity which is generated by the gate rotor main body and the screw rotor pressing against one another, is reduced.
  • a pressing force between the gate rotor main body 30 and the screw rotor 2 given by the elastic body 5 can be maintained to the extent that gas does not leak from the compression chamber C.
  • the gate rotors 3 flex owing to the temperature differential between the casing 1 and the screw rotor 2 during operation of the compressor, the gate rotors 3 are prevented, with a simple configuration, from biting into the screw rotor 2 , which reduces the amount of wear of the gate rotors 3 and prevents the performance of the compressor from declining.
  • the elastic body 5 is a leaf spring
  • the elastic body 5 can be configured simply.
  • the leaf spring 5 is an annular wave spring or a spiral spring, the leaf spring 5 can be configured simply.
  • the gate rotors 3 are provided, and therefore even if the gate rotors 3 flex owing to the temperature differential between the casing 1 and the screw rotor 2 during operation of the compressor, the gate rotors 3 are prevented, with a simple configuration, from biting into the screw rotor 2 , which reduces the amount of wear of the gate rotors 3 and prevents the performance of the compressor from declining.
  • FIG. 8 shows a second embodiment of the gate rotor according to the present invention.
  • the second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in the configuration of an elastic body. Furthermore, symbols that are the same as those in the first embodiment have the same configuration as in the first embodiment, and any explanation thereof is therefore omitted.
  • an elastic body 5 A is an annular rubber member.
  • An outer circumferential surface of the annular rubber member contacts the inner circumferential surface of the hole 32 of the gate rotor main body 30 , and the inner circumferential surface of the annular rubber member contacts the outer circumferential surface of the first shaft 41 of the shaft 40 .
  • the elastic body 5 A urges such that the axis of the gate rotor main body 30 and the axis of the shaft 40 always coincide. Furthermore, if an external force acts on the gate rotor main body 30 , then the gate rotor main body 30 counteracts the elastic force of the elastic body 5 A and moves on the shaft 40 .
  • the elastic body 5 A can be configured simply because it is an annular rubber member.
  • the present invention is not limited to the embodiments discussed above.
  • the gate rotor main body may be attached to this one shaft, and the casing may support this one shaft.
  • the quantity of the gate rotors may be increased or decreased.
  • a conventional screw compressor that comprises a screw rotor, which has a helical groove, and gate rotors, each of which comprises a plurality of teeth that mesh with the helical groove, is known. It is often the case that the gate rotors are manufactured from a synthetic resin, which makes reducing the wear of the teeth of the gate rotors problematic.
  • this screw compressor is complex, and there are geometric limits to the precision of components and accuracy of assembly; consequently, there is a risk that a gap between the teeth of each of the gate rotors and the groove of the screw rotor is significant and that, furthermore, the size of the gap will vary largely. If variation occurs in the gap between the teeth of each of the gate rotors and the groove of the screw rotor in this manner, then the screw compressor structured as described in the abovementioned literature cannot absorb that gap variation.
  • the third embodiment discussed below provides a screw compressor that can prevent the gate rotors from wearing and prevent performance from declining owing to that wear.
  • a single screw compressor 101 shown in FIGS. 9 through 15 comprises: one screw rotor 102 ; a casing 103 , which houses the screw rotor 102 ; a shaft 104 , which constitutes a rotary shaft of the screw rotor 102 ; two gate rotors 105 , 106 ; a thrust bearing 107 , which supports the screw rotor 102 from the axial directions; and gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 , which are for the two gate rotors 105 , 106 , respectively.
  • the screw rotor 102 is a columnar rotor that has a plurality of helical grooves 111 in its outer circumferential surface.
  • the screw rotor 102 can rotate integrally with the shaft 104 inside the casing 103 .
  • the thrust bearing 107 supports the screw rotor 102 in a direction that leads along the axial directions from the discharge side to the inlet side (i.e., in a direction that is the opposite of a gas inlet direction F 1 ).
  • One end of the shaft 104 is connected to the screw rotor 102 , and an other end of the shaft 104 is connected to a drive motor (not shown) outside the casing 103 .
  • the casing 103 is a cylindrically shaped member and rotatably houses the screw rotor 102 and the shaft 104 .
  • Each of the two gate rotors namely, the first gate rotor 105 and the second gate rotor 106 , is a rotary body wherein an opening 121 is formed at the center and a plurality of teeth 112 , which mesh with the grooves 111 of the screw rotor 102 , is disposed radially around the opening 121 ; moreover, the first gate rotor 105 and the second gate rotor 106 are capable of rotating around the gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 , respectively.
  • the gate rotors 105 , 106 of the third embodiment are manufactured from a synthetic resin. Accordingly, because they are used in the screw compressor 101 , the gate rotors 105 , 106 are preferably manufactured from a synthetic resin that can strongly withstand pressure and wear.
  • the gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 are inserted in openings 121 of the two gate rotors 105 , 106 and rotatably support the gate rotors 105 , 106 .
  • the gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 comprise gate rotor supports 127 , which support the gate rotors 105 , 106 .
  • the gate rotor supports 127 are coaxially fixed to the gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 .
  • the shape of the gate rotor supports 127 is substantially similar to, though dimensionally slightly smaller than, that of the gate rotors 105 , 106 .
  • the gate rotors 105 , 106 are fixed by pins 124 such that they cannot rotate with respect to the gate rotor supports 127 .
  • the gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 are orthogonal to the shaft 104 of the screw rotor 102 .
  • the teeth 112 of the gate rotors 105 , 106 are capable of meshing, through a slit 114 formed in the casing 103 , with the helical grooves 111 of the screw rotor 102 .
  • the two gate rotors 105 , 106 are disposed such that they are left-right symmetric to the center of rotation of the screw rotor 102 .
  • the gate rotors 105 , 106 may be disposed such that they are up-down symmetric.
  • the teeth 112 of the first gate rotor 105 and the second gate rotor 106 can mesh sequentially with the grooves 111 .
  • the gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 are inserted in the openings 121 of the gate rotors 105 , 106 , respectively, with gaps 122 therebetween.
  • the gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 rotatably support the gate rotors 105 , 106 , respectively.
  • Each of the gaps 122 is preferably in the range of approximately 0.1 through 0.8 mm. Namely, if the gaps 122 are less than 0.1 mm, then the extension of the teeth of the gate rotors 105 , 106 in the radial directions cannot be absorbed; in addition, if the gaps 122 exceed 0.8 mm, then rotational runout of the gate rotors 105 , 106 increases, which makes it difficult for the teeth 112 to mesh with the grooves 111 properly; the above range is therefore set in consideration of these problems.
  • a coil spring 128 which is a first elastic body, is disposed in the gap 122 between the opening 121 of each of the gate rotors 105 , 106 and the corresponding gate rotor shaft 108 , 109 .
  • an O-ring 129 which is a second elastic body, is disposed around, of a locking pins 123 , 124 , at least the floating pin 124 ; each pair of the locking pins 123 , 124 stop the rotation of the gate rotors 105 , 106 around the gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 , respectively.
  • the gaps 122 are formed around the gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 ; furthermore, the coil springs 128 , which are disposed in the gaps 122 around the gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 , together with the O-rings 129 , which are disposed around the floating pins 124 , make it possible to absorb the extension of the teeth 112 of the gate rotors 105 , 106 in the radial directions.
  • the gaps between the tips of the teeth 112 of the gate rotors 105 , 106 and the far walls of the grooves 111 of the screw rotor 102 are adjusted at the inlet temperature during low load operation or at room temperature (i.e., ambient temperature) such that the tips of the teeth 112 of the gate rotors 105 , 106 contact the far walls of the grooves 111 of the screw rotor 102 .
  • Coil springs 128 disposed in the gaps 122 give an elastic force to the corresponding gate rotor 105 , 106 in the radial directions partially toward the corresponding guide pin 123 , which is one of the locking pins 123 , 124 , with respect to the gate rotor 105 , 106 .
  • the coil springs 128 can effectively absorb in the radial directions the extension of the teeth 112 , whose movement in the radial directions is restrained by the guide pins 123 .
  • the gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 and the gate rotors 105 , 106 are connected in the state in which the floating pins 124 have more play than the other locking pins (i.e., the guide pins 123 ) have.
  • the floating pins 124 tightly mate with the gate rotors 105 , 106 such that there is no play; however, the gate rotors 105 , 106 are in a loose connected state such that there is play (i.e., mobility margin) with respect to the gate rotor supports 127 in the rotational directions of the gate rotors 105 , 106 as well as in the radial directions.
  • the floating pins 124 can secure a larger mobility margin—that is, the floating pins 124 can secure a larger mobility margin than the guide pins 123 can—which makes it possible to absorb the extension of the teeth 112 of the gate rotors 105 , 106 in the radial directions.
  • the play (i.e., the mobility margin) of the floating pins 124 in the radial directions of the gate rotors 105 , 106 is set to approximately 0.1 through 0.8 mm such that the amount of extension in the radial directions of the teeth 112 of the gate rotors 105 , 106 owing to thermal expansion can be absorbed. If it is less than 0.1 mm, then the extension of the teeth 112 cannot be sufficiently absorbed by the mobility margin of the floating pins 124 , and if it exceeds 0.8 mm, then the smooth rotation of the gate rotors 105 , 106 is adversely affected, both of which are problems.
  • Each of the O-rings 129 namely, the second elastic bodies, is ring shaped and disposed around the corresponding floating pin 124 .
  • the O-rings 129 are capable of absorbing the extension of the teeth 112 of the gate rotors 105 , 106 in the radial directions.
  • Each of the O-rings 129 is a ring shaped member manufactured from an elastic material that flexes more easily than the gate rotors 105 (i.e., that has a low Young's modulus).
  • the O-rings 129 can be manufactured from a synthetic rubber, a synthetic resin, or some other elastic material.
  • discharge ports 110 which are for discharging compressed refrigerant gas inside the casing 103 , are openings formed in the outer circumferential surface of the casing 103 such that there is one for the first gate rotor 105 and one for the second gate rotor 106 .
  • the discharge ports 110 open at an appropriate position of the outer circumferential surface of the casing 103 such that communication with the grooves 111 in the outer circumferential surface of the screw rotor 102 is possible.
  • the single screw compressor 101 shown in FIGS. 9 through 15 compresses the gas as follows.
  • the volumes of the compression chambers on the near side of the paper plane, which are formed and partitioned by the inner surface of the casing 103 , the grooves 111 of the screw rotor 102 , and the teeth 112 of the gate rotor 105 are reduced.
  • the volumes of the compression chambers on the far side of the paper plane, which are formed and partitioned by the inner surface of the casing 103 , the grooves 111 of the screw rotor 102 , and the teeth 112 of the gate rotor 106 are reduced.
  • the refrigerant F 1 (refer to FIG. 10 ) introduced via an inlet side opening 115 of the casing 103 prior to compression is guided to the compression chambers immediately before the grooves 111 and the teeth 112 mesh with one another, the refrigerant is compressed by the reduction of the volumes of the compression chambers while the grooves 111 and the teeth 112 mesh, and, immediately after the grooves 111 and the teeth 112 unmesh, the compressed refrigerant F 2 (refer to FIG. 10 ) is discharged via the discharge ports 110 , which open on both the far and near sides of the paper plane (refer to FIG. 10 ) corresponding to the gate rotors 105 , 106 .
  • the gaps 122 are formed around the gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 ; furthermore, the coil springs 128 , which are disposed in the gaps 122 around the gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 , together with the O-rings 129 , which are disposed around the floating pins 124 , make it possible to absorb the extension of the teeth 112 of the gate rotors 105 , 106 in the radial directions.
  • the tip gaps are also automatically adjusted in accordance with changes in the operating conditions. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the performance of the screw compressor 101 from declining.
  • the present embodiment comprises the gaps 122 , which are between the openings 121 of the gate rotors 105 , 106 and the gate rotor shafts 108 , 109 , the coil springs 128 , which are disposed in the gaps 122 , and the O-rings 129 , which are disposed around the floating pins 124 , the gate rotors 105 , 106 can move in the radial directions, which makes it possible to release refrigerant in the liquid state from the tip gaps to the outside of the screw compressor 101 , even if abnormal liquid compression occurs.
  • the coil springs 128 disposed in the gaps 122 give elastic forces, in the radial directions of the gate rotors 105 , 106 , partially toward the guide pins 123 with respect to the gate rotors 105 , 106 . Accordingly, the coil springs 128 can effectively absorb the extension of the teeth 112 , whose movement in the radial directions is restrained by the guide pins 123 , in the radial directions.
