Abstract
A compressor for providing pressurized air at a predetermined pressure and at a predetermined volume. The compressor has a motor with a shaft to which an eccentric is attached which moves a crank rod upwardly and downwardly and to which is attached a flexible diaphragm. The reciprocal movement of the diaphragm draws air into a chamber while an inlet flapper valve opens and expels air from the chamber through an outlet flapper valve. The flapper valves are made from spring steel and act in a cantilever movement to open and close the inlet and outlet passageways. O-rings are provided to deaden the sound of the flappers. A counterweight is attached to the eccentric to provide an opposed force to the force generated by rotation of the eccentric. An air bleeder allowing air movement between the inlet and outlet passageways may be provided to adjust the air pressure emanating from the compressor.
Description
- This invention relates to a compressor and, more particularly, to a diaphragm compressor used generally with a diesel heater and which compressor is used to provide the necessary air under pressure in order to draw fuel into an atomizing fuel nozzle.
- Powered heaters which use diesel fuel can take many different forms. The present heater with which the compressor is used is a powered heater with an atomizing type nozzle. The use of air under pressure when introduced to the nozzle creates a negative pressure or suction which draws fuel into the nozzle which fuel is then mixed with the air and forms a cone shaped spray emanating from the nozzle with fine particles of fuel. The spray is ignited by a flame rod which is electronically activated.
- The compressor is important in such a vaporizing type burner. Any variation of the pressure from the compressor affects the spray pattern and, hence, the combustion characteristics of the burner which, in turn, will adversely will affect BTU output and the emission output from the burner or any heater within which it is positioned. The compressor must not only maintain appropriate characteristics throughout a range of operation but it also must be robust for long life. Its operating characteristics must remain consistent over the life of the compressor and this is particularly so for military operations which use such a burner.
- Previously, compressors have been used with various problems arising. One problem is that the valves on such compressors are usually made from a petroleum based material. Upon exposure to diesel laden fumes from the heater, the valves are adversely affected which lowers the life of the valves and, during the period before failure of the valves and adversely affects the operating profile of the compressor. A further problem with existing compressors is that the motors which power the piston and diaphragm are susceptible to overheating due to long hours of compressor use. The overheating is passed to the valve material which adversely affects the valve operation and may cause premature failure. Yet a further motor problem is that the compressor starts and stops many thousands of times with the heater being turned off and on to effect the heating of coolant used both for space heating and for heating potable water for use in showers and the like. If the motor does not have sufficient robustness, flat spots will occur between the brushes and the windings which will prevent the compressor from being operated. Yet a further problem lies in the interface between the valves and the compressor head where the valves alternatively open and close. It is important that this interface maintain integrity in both the open and closed positions to properly maintain the pressure from the compressor when the valves are open and to allow the pressure to be reduced when the valve is closed. Previously, due to heat on the compressor head, the interface could deform thus adversely affecting the seal between the valve and the seat. Adversely affecting this seat adversely affects the characteristics of air emanating from the compressor. Yet a further problem with existing compressors is that they are specifically designed for maintaining specific pressure. If a different pressure is required, the compressor must be replaced or substantially modified.
- According to one aspect of the invention, there is provided a compressor used for supplying air to a nozzle, said compressor comprising a motor with an extending shaft to power said compressor, an eccentric crank connected to said shaft, a crank rod connected to said eccentric crank, a counterbalance connected to said eccentric crank and used to offset the force generated by the rotation of said crank rod and said eccentric crank, a body portion within which said crank rod moves and which includes a body head, a valve head portion housing inlet and outlet openings with flapper valves allowing the opening and closing of said inlet and outlet openings, a spacer portion having inlet and outlet passageways allowing egress and ingress of air moving through said inlet and outlet openings, a diaphragm between said body head and spacer portions which diaphragm is moved upwardly and downwardly by said crank rod, a seal between said valve head and spacer portions and first and second generally flat flappers opening and closing said inlet and outlet passageways, one of said flappers being connected to said valve head portion and the other of said flappers being connected to said spacer portion.

A combustion fan 111 draws ambient air into theburner 100 and provides this air into the combustion chamber shown generally at 112. The air provided by the combustion fan 111 is intended to create a forced air flow through thecombustion chamber 112 so as to provide optimal combustion for the air and fuel. Anigniter 113 is provided to provide an infrared glow so as to ignite the fuel-air mixture emanating fromnozzle 101. - A
compressor 120 is operably mounted so as to provide a constant air supply to thenozzle 101 at a specific and predetermined pressure and flow rate. Afilter 121 filters the ambient air before it enters thecompressor 120. - Referring now to the compressor generally illustrated at 120 in
FIG. 1 , amotor 122 is connected to thebody portion 123 ofcompressor 120 with screws or bolts 124 (FIG. 2A ).Motor 122 has a shaft 130 (FIG. 2B ) protruding from one end. The shaft 130 extends through a bearing 131 (FIG. 5 ) mounted within acrank rod 132 which reciprocates when themotor 122 is operating. Thecrank rod 132 has apiston head 133 with a rubber or syntheticflexible diaphragm 134 connected thereto by way of a circular keeper 140 andbolt 141 extending through the keeper 140 and into thepiston head 133 to retain thediaphragm 134. - Inlet and
outlet passageways valve head portion 144, thence through aspacer 150 and into thecavity 151 formed between thespacer 150 and thediaphragm 134. A pair of generallyflat flapper valves cavity 151. The use of spring steel for theflapper valves Flapper valve 152 is connected to thehead portion 144 by a screw or bolt (not illustrated) so as to move in a cantilever type motion and opens and closes theoutlet passageway 143.Flapper valve 153 is connected to thespacer portion 150 in the same manner and opens and closes theinlet passageway 142. O-rings 154 are provided within machined grooves in thespacer 150 and serve to reduce the noise of theflapper valves compressor 120 when therespective flapper valves -
Spacer 150 is sandwiched upon assembly betweenvalve head portion 144 andbody head portion 160. Four bolts 161 (FIG. 1 ) extend from thehead 144, throughspacer 150 anddiaphragm 134 into thebody head portion 160 ofbody 123 to tightly seal the three components. An o-ring 162 is positioned within a machined groove inspacer 150 and surrounds theoutlet passageway 143 inspacer 150 to ensure all air emanating from theoutlet passageway 143 inspacer 150 exhausts throughoutlet passageway 143 and to ensure sealing integrity. - The
body 123 has acircular opening 163 machined in one side (FIG. 3 ) so as to allow access to the interior of thebody 123 for assembly and servicing operations. A removable rubber plug 164 (FIG. 1 ) is used to close theopening 163 after assembly to prevent the ingress of contamination though theopening 163. To service or inspect the components within thebody 124, the plug 164 is manually removed. - A counterweight 170 (
FIG. 3 ) is connected to the shaft 171 of the eccentric 172 (FIG. 5 ). Thecounterweight 170 operates to offset the force created by the rotation of the eccentric 172. - Air filter 121 (
FIG. 3 ) is provided to filter the air entering into theinlet passageway 142 ofcompressor 120. - Fins 173 are provided on the outside of the valve head 144 (
FIG. 1 ) to allow better dissipation of the heat buildup which takes place during compression. - In operation, the power switch (not illustrated) is turned on to provide power to the heater 100 (
FIG. 1 ). Theigniter 113 will begin to glow and the combustion fan 111 will remain in the off condition. For a HURRICANE (Trademark) heater manufactured by International Thermal Research Ltd. of Richmond, British Columbia, Canada, theigniter 113 will remain on for a period of approximately ten (10) seconds to allow it to reach ignition temperature. - The
air compressor 120,fuel pump 104,fuel solenoid 102 and combustion fan 111 will then be turned on. - The
motor 122 ofcompressor 120 will rotate and the shaft 130 of themotor 122 will rotate the eccentric 172 mounted to the shaft 130 (FIGS. 1 and 5 ). The shaft 171 of eccentric 172 will provide the reciprocating motion to the crankrod 132 and thecrank rod 132 will rotate at the same rpm as themotor 120. Upwardly and downwardly movement is therefore provided todiaphragm 134. As thediaphragm 134 moves downwardly as viewed inFIG. 5 ,flapper 153 will open as air is drawn into theinlet air passageway 142, through the opening created by the nowopen flapper valve 153 and intocavity 151 in thespacer 150. - When the
diaphragm 134 reaches its most downwardly position and crankrod 132 begins to move upwardly as seen inFIG. 5 ,flapper 153 will close under the positive pressure incavity 151 andflapper 152 inoutlet passageway 143 will open. Air will therefore exhaust throughoutlet passageway 143 under a predetermined pressure and at a predetermined flow rate according to the size of thecavity 151, the speed of themotor 122 and the sizes of the inlet andoutlet passageways - The air under pressure will leave the
outlet passageway 143 and enter the nozzle 101 (FIG. 6 ). Thesolenoid 102 will be in the open position to allow fuel to pass from thefuel regulator 103 to thenozzle 101. The compressed air is guided over the tip of thenozzle 101 where a negative pressure is created. The negative pressure will draw fuel from thefuel regulator 103 to thenozzle 101. Thenozzle 101 creates a fine cone pattern spray which is ignited by theigniter 113. -
Fuel pump 104 pumps fuel to thefuel regulator 103 and afuel filter 110 is provided to filter the fuel entering intofuel pump 104 from a fuel supply (not illustrated). - The combustion fan 111 draws in outside ambient air which creates a forced air flow through the
combustion chamber 112 and to exhaust the combustion gasses through an exhaust system (not illustrated). - When the operation of the
burner 100 is terminated, thesolenoid 102 is closed to prevent fuel from being drawn from thenozzle 101. This allows a cleaner ignition of the fuel when theburner 100 commences operation. - Many modifications will readily occur to those skilled in the art. For example, the
inlet passageway 142 in the valve head 144 (FIG. 5 ) may be fitted with anair bleeder hole 174 which extends from the outside of thevalve head 144 and through the space 180 (FIG. 5 ) between theair inlet cavity 181 and theair outlet cavity 182 as is illustrated by the broken lines inFIG. 5 . A set screw (not illustrated) would be inserted into theair bleeder hole 174 and would allow adjustment of air passing between theinlet air chamber 181 and theoutlet air chamber 182. This would allow for the pressure provided to thenozzle 101 by thecompressor 120 to be adjusted depending upon the fuel combustion characteristics desired by thespecific nozzle 101 that might be used in the heater. - While the
compressor 101 is made from aluminum to prevent rusting and to provide lightened weight, it is contemplated that other suitable materials might also be used. For example, stainless steel could be used or theentire compressor 101 could have the components molded in an appropriate synthetic plastic. The use of molded materials could also enhance the sound deadening qualities of thecompressor 101 and would reduce costs for large quantities of production. - It is important for the
flapper valves compressor 101. If the thickness of theflapper valves compressor 101. A thickness for theflapper valves - Many further modifications will readily occur to those skilled in the art to which the invention relates and the specific embodiments herein described should be taken as illustrative of the invention only and not as limiting its scope as defined in accordance with the accompanying claims.
