Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a refrigerant compressor to be used for a vehicle air-conditioning system, and the like, and more specifically, relates to a cooling structure for lubrication oils.
- In a refrigerant compressor, a lubrication oil is mixed in a refrigerant drawn into and discharged from the refrigerant compressor, but when an oil circulation rate (OCR) to an air-conditioning system becomes high, heat exchange is prevented and the cooling performance drops. Accordingly, it is required to lower the oil circulation rate.
- Therefore, a circulation oil contained in a discharged refrigerant is separated and returned. However, since the oil separated from a high-temperature discharged refrigerant has a high temperature and thus has a low viscosity, lubrication performance becomes poor if such an oil is directly returned. Accordingly, it is required to cool the separated oil.
- In a compressor described in Patent Document 1, to a cylinder head in which a suction chamber and a discharge chamber are formed, an auxiliary head is attached so as to extend in the axial direction of the cylinder head, and an oil storage chamber (chamber for retaining oil) is formed in the auxiliary head so that a separated oil is temporarily stored in the oil storage chamber. Further, the oil storage chamber is provided adjacently to the suction chamber, so that the oil in the oil storage chamber is cooled by a low-temperature drawn refrigerant.

- However, the refrigerant compressor described in Patent Document 1 has the following problems.
- Since the discharge chamber is disposed in the central portion of a cylinder head and the suction chamber is disposed so as to encircle the discharge chamber, a region of the oil storage chamber adjacent to the suction chamber is narrow relative to an oil storage space of the oil storage chamber. Accordingly, when the oil storage amount becomes large, cooling of oil becomes insufficient.
- Further, if the oil storage chamber is disposed adjacent to the suction chamber of the cylinder head, the cylinder head as a whole extends in the axial direction to increase the size of the compressor in the axial direction, such being not preferred.
- Under these circumstances, it is an object of the present invention to provide a refrigerant compressor which achieves effective cooling of an oil in the oil storage chamber with a simple structure, and which can suppress increase of size of the refrigerant compressor in the axial direction.
- A refrigerant compressor according to the present invention premises a construction including a cylinder block that has a plurality of cylinder bores disposed in parallel to and around the axis of the cylinder block; a cylinder head that is provided on one end of the cylinder block with a valve plate interposed therebetween; pistons that are inserted from the other end of the cylinder block into the respective cylinder bores and configured to reciprocate in the cylinder bores to compress a refrigerant drawn from a suction chamber on the cylinder head side and discharge the compressed refrigerant into a discharge chamber on the cylinder head side; and an oil recirculation mechanism that separates a lubrication oil from the refrigerant discharged into the discharge chamber and returns the lubrication oil to a lubrication portion of the compressor.
- Here, the cylinder head has, in its inside, the suction chamber, the discharge chamber, a suction passage for introducing a refrigerant drawn from an external refrigerant circuit into the suction chamber, and a discharge passage for leading out the refrigerant discharged into the discharge chamber to the external refrigerant circuit. The suction chamber is disposed on the center side in the diametric direction of the cylinder head, and the discharge chamber is disposed on the outer side in the diametric direction of the cylinder head so as to encircle the suction chamber.
- Further, the oil recirculation mechanism has an oil storage chamber for storing the separated oil. The oil storage chamber includes a tubular portion, that extends in the diametric direction of the cylinder head integrally with the cylinder head and has an open end at the outer face of the cylinder head, and an occluding member that occludes the open end. The tubular portion has a bulge portion bulging to the suction chamber side.
- According to the present invention, a high temperature oil in the oil storage chamber can be effectively cooled by a low temperature drawn refrigerant in the presence of the bulge portion into the suction chamber side, and it is possible to suppress drop of viscosity of the oil. Moreover, since the suction chamber is disposed in the center side in the cylinder head, it is easy to dispose the oil storage chamber adjacent thereto and so as to bulge into the suction chamber.
- Further, by making the oil storage chamber bulge into the suction chamber side and thereby shift the oil storage chamber toward the suction chamber side, it is possible to suppress increase of the size of the compressor.

Theswash plate 107 is coupled via a connectingunit 109 with arotor 108 fixed to thedrive shaft 106, so that the inclination angle of theswash plate 107 along thedrive shaft 106 is variable. Here, between therotor 108 and theswash plate 107, acoil spring 110 for urging a force to theswash plate 107 toward the minimum inclination angle is attached, and further, on the other side across theswash plate 107, acoil spring 111 for urging a force to theswash plate 107 toward a direction of increasing the inclination angle is attached. - One end of the
drive shaft 106 extends through aboss portion 102 a protruding outwardly from thefront housing 102, to the outside and is connected to an electromagnetic clutch, which is not illustrated. Here, between thedrive shaft 106 and theboss portion 102 a, ashaft seal device 112 is inserted so as to form a sealing between the inside and the outside of thefront housing 102. Thedrive shaft 106 is supported bybearings shaft 106. - In each cylinder bore 101 a of the
cylinder block 101, a singlehead type piston 117 is inserted and disposed so that its head is on thecylinder head 104 side and that thepiston 117 is reciprocatable. On the other end portion of thepiston 117 opposite to the piston head, a rectangular recess 117 a is formed, and the outer peripheral portion of theswash plate 107 is accommodated in the recess 117 a so that thepiston 117 and theswash plate 107 are configured to interlock with each other via a pair of front andrear shoes 118. Accordingly, by rotation of thedrive shaft 106, eachpiston 117 can be reciprocated in each cylinder bore 101 a. - Inside of the
cylinder head 104 is compartmented to form asuction chamber 119 and adischarge chamber 120. Thesuction chamber 119 is disposed in the center side in the diametric direction of the cylinder head 104 (on the extended axial line of the drive shaft 106), and thedischarge chamber 120 is disposed on the outer side in the diametric direction of thecylinder head 104 so as to be in an annular form encircling thesuction chamber 119. - In the
valve plate 103,suction ports 103 a through which the cylinder bores 101 a (compression chambers of the piston 117) communicate with thesuction chamber 119 in thecylinder head 104, anddischarge ports 103 b through which the cylinder bores 101 a (compression chambers of the piston 117) communicate with thedischarge chamber 120 in thecylinder head 104, are formed. In each suction port and each discharge port, a one-way valve (not illustrated) is provided. - In the
cylinder head 104, asuction passage 104 a for introducing a refrigerant drawn from an external refrigerant circuit into thesuction chamber 119, and adischarge passage 104 b for leading out a refrigerant discharged into thedischarge chamber 120 to the external refrigerant circuit, are provided. Accordingly, thesuction chamber 119 is connected to an air-conditioning system side via thesuction passage 104 a and thedischarge chamber 120 is connected to the air-conditioning system side via thedischarge passage 104 b. - In this
variable displacement compressor 100, rotation of thedrive shaft 106 is converted by theswash plate 107 being a conversion mechanism into reciprocal movement of eachpiston 117, to draw and discharge the refrigerant. Here, the displacement can be changed by changing the stroke of eachpiston 117 by adjusting the inclination angle of theswash plate 107, and the inclination angle of theswash plate 107 is changed by the pressure in thecrank chamber 105. - That is, since the inclination angle of the
swash plate 107 is changed by a moment caused by pressure differences between front and back sides of allpistons 117, it is possible to optionally control the inclination angle of theswash plate 107 by the pressure in thecrank chamber 105. - In order to achieve this control, a
displacement control valve 200 is provided in thecylinder head 104. Thedisplacement control valve 200 changes the opening degree of agas supply passage 121 through which thedischarge chamber 120 communicates with thecrank chamber 105, to adjust an introduction amount of a discharge gas into thecrank chamber 105. - Further, a refrigerant in the
crank chamber 105 flows into thesuction chamber 119 via a gas-extraction passage that passes through gaps between thedrive shaft 106 and thebearings space 122 and anorifice 103 c formed in thevalve plate 103. - Accordingly, by adjusting the opening degree of the
displacement control valve 200, it is possible to change the pressure in thecrank chamber 105 to change the inclination angle of theswash plate 107, and thereby to change the displacement. Here, the pressure in thesuction chamber 119 is introduced into thedisplacement control valve 200 via acommunication passage 123, and thedisplacement control valve 200 adjusts the introduction amount of the discharge gas into thecrank chamber 105 so that thesuction chamber 119 maintains a predetermined pressure. - Next, an oil recirculation mechanism for separating a lubrication oil from a discharged refrigerant and for returning the separated lubrication oil to a lubrication portion of the compressor will be described.
- The oil recirculation mechanism includes an oil-separation portion for separating an oil from the discharged refrigerant, an oil storage chamber for storing the separated oil and an oil return passage for returning the oil from the oil storage chamber to a suction side (low pressure region).
- The
discharge passage 104 b is constituted by a lead outhole 104 b 1 that is an upward hole provided in an upper region of thecylinder head 104 and connected to an external refrigerant circuit; aseparation chamber 104 b 2 that has a cylindrical shape of which diameter is greater than that of the lead outhole 104 b 1 and disposed below the lead outhole 104 b 1; aseparation pipe 130 projecting into theseparation chamber 104 b 2 and press-fit into and fixed to the lead outhole 104 b 1; and anintroduction hole 104 b 3 extending in a direction substantially perpendicular to the axial line of theseparation chamber 104 b 2 and opening along an inner wall of theseparation chamber 104 b 2, through which theseparation chamber 104 b 2 communicates with thedischarge chamber 120. - Accordingly, a gas-state refrigerant, that is discharged from each cylinder bore 101 a into the
discharge chamber 120 and contains an oil, flows through theintroduction hole 104 b 3 into theseparation chamber 104 b 2, and while the refrigerant whirls around theseparation pipe 130, an oil is separated and a gas-state refrigerant is discharged through the inside of theseparation pipe 130 and the lead outhole 104 b 1 into the external refrigerant circuit. Theintroduction hole 104 b 3, theseparation chamber 104 b 2 and theseparation pipe 130 constitute an oil separation portion for separating an oil from the discharged refrigerant. - In order to store the oil separated by the oil separation portion, an
oil storage chamber 132 is provided. - The
oil storage chamber 132 includes a tubular portion that extends in the diametric direction of thecylinder head 104 integrally with thecylinder head 104 and has an open end at the outer face of thecylinder head 104, and an occludingmember 134 that occludes the open end. In more detail, the oil storage chamber (tubular portion) 132 has a substantially cylindrical shape extending in the diametric direction of thecylinder head 104 so as to extend through the center of thesuction chamber 119 and obliquely across thesuction chamber 119. Theoil storage chamber 132 has an open end opening downwardly at the outer face of thecylinder head 104, and the open end is occluded by the occludingmember 134. Theoil storage chamber 132 is formed so that its cross-sectional area increases toward the open end so that its oil storage space increases toward its lower region. - The
oil storage chamber 132 has abulge portion 132 a bulging into thesuction chamber 119 for cooling a stored oil. - Since the
oil storage chamber 132 is disposed obliquely across thesuction chamber 119 so as to cross the center of the suction chamber, that is so as to cross an imaginarily extended line of an axial center of thedrive shaft 106, when thecylinder head 104 is observed from the direction ofFIG. 2 , most of the region from the lower region to the upper region bulges into thesuction chamber 119. Further,FIG. 3 illustrates a cross section (A-A cross section ofFIG. 2 ) of theoil storage chamber 132, which shows that an axial center of theoil storage chamber 132 formed into a substantially cylindrical shape bulges into thesuction chamber 119 so that at least a half a circumferential wall of theoil storage chamber 132 faces thesuction chamber 119. - Accordingly, a high temperature oil stored in the
oil storage chamber 132 is effectively cooled by a low temperature refrigerant in thesuction chamber 119. - Here, by making the
oil storage chamber 132 bulge into thecylinder head 104, it is possible to suppress increase of size of thevariable displacement compressor 100 caused by provision of theoil storage chamber 132, and by forming theoil storage chamber 132 into a tubular form, it is possible to limit a size-increase region. - An open end of the
separation chamber 104 b 2 opens directly into a region of theoil storage chamber 132 opposing to the occludingmember 134, and an oil separated in theseparation chamber 104 b 2 drops directly into theoil storage chamber 132 and is stored. That is, the open end of theseparation chamber 104 b 2 acts as an oil introduction hole into theoil storage chamber 132. - Meanwhile, in order that the oil separated and stored in the
oil storage chamber 132 is returned to the suction side, a lower region of theoil storage chamber 132 communicates with thesuction chamber 119 via anorifice 136 that functions as an oil-returning passage and a depressurizing means. - Accordingly, the high temperature oil separated in the
separation chamber 104 b 2 is stored in theoil storage chamber 132, cooled by the low temperature refrigerant in thesuction chamber 119 through thebulge portion 132 a, and returned to thesuction chamber 119 via theorifice 136 by a pressure difference between theoil storage chamber 132 and thesuction chamber 119. The returned oil is drawn into the cylinder bores 101 a and lubricates the inside of thevariable displacement compressor 100. - Here, as illustrated in
FIGS. 2 and 3 , thesuction passage 104 a extends in the diametric direction of thecylinder head 104 and is provided so that an imaginary line obtained by extending thesuction passage 104 a into thesuction chamber 119 crosses thebulge portion 132 a. Accordingly, a main flow of the refrigerant flowing through thesuction passage 104 a into thesuction chamber 119 directly collides with thebulge portion 132 a, and the oil stored in theoil storage chamber 132 is cooled further effectively. - According to this embodiment, the
oil storage chamber 132 is constituted by a tubular portion, that extends in the diametric direction of thecylinder head 104 integrally with the cylinder head and has an open end at the outer face of the cylinder head, and an occludingmember 134 that occludes the open end. The tubular portion has abulge portion 132 a bulging into thesuction chamber 119. Accordingly, a high temperature oil in theoil storage chamber 132 is effectively cooled by the low temperature drawn refrigerant, and it is possible to suppress drop of viscosity of the oil and to suppress increase of the size of the compressor. - Further, according to this embodiment, since the
bulge portion 132 a includes at least a lower region of theoil storage chamber 132, it is possible to cool an oil returned to the suction side (low pressure region) regardless of the amount of the oil. - Further, according to this embodiment, since the
oil storage chamber 132, that is, its tubular portion, is formed so that its cross-sectional area increases toward the open end that opens downwardly, even when the amount of the stored oil is small, the oil is always stored. Further, by increasing the space of the lower region bulging to thesuction chamber 119 side, it is possible to securely cool an oil to be returned to the suction side. - Further, according to this embodiment, since the
oil storage chamber 132 is provided so that thebulge portion 132 a crosses an axial line of the cylinder head 104 (extended axial line of the drive shaft 106), theoil storage chamber 132 is provided so that thebulge portion 132 a passes through the vicinity of the center of thesuction chamber 119, and accordingly, the region bulging into thesuction chamber 119 increases to increase the cooling effect. - Further, according to this embodiment, since the
oil storage chamber 132 is provided laterally across thesuction chamber 119, it is possible to further increase the cooling area and to cool the high temperature oil further effectively. - Further, according to this embodiment, since the
suction passage 104 a is disposed so that an imaginary line obtained by extending thesuction passage 104 a into thesuction chamber 119 crosses thebulge portion 132 a, heat exchange is promoted and the oil is cooled effectively. - Here, when the lubrication oil is cooled by the drawn refrigerant, the temperature of the drawn refrigerant rises. However, since the amount of lubrication oil to be cooled is limited, the temperature rise of the drawn refrigerant is small, and the above advantage is by far greater than a disadvantage due to the temperature rise.
- Next, another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to
FIG. 5 . -
FIG. 5 is a substantial-part cross-sectional view of a refrigerant compressor illustrating another embodiment of the present invention. Here, elements common to those ofFIG. 1 are indicated by the same symbols and their explanations are omitted. Explanation will be made for different elements. - An
oil storage chamber 132 having a cylindrical shape is constituted by a lower region having a large diameter and an upper region having a small diameter, abulge portion 132 a is constituted by thelower region 132 a 1 and theupper region 132 a 2, and thebulge portion 132 a 2 of the upper region is smaller than thebulge portion 132 a 1 of the lower region in bulge volume. - By this configuration, an oil stored in the lower region, that is to be returned to the
suction chamber 119, is effectively cooled. Further, since the upper region is smaller than the lower region in bulge volume, heat exchange through the bulge portion 32 a 2 of the upper region with the sucked refrigerant is suppressed, and it is possible to suppress unnecessary heating of the drawn refrigerant. - Here, the
oil storage chamber 132 may be formed into a taper form from theseparation chamber 104 b 2 side toward the lower region and the bulge volume may be adjusted. Further, theoil storage chamber 132 may be disposed so as to be sloped and the bulge volume may be adjusted. Further, the upper region of the oil storage chamber not necessarily bulges. - According to this embodiment, the bulge volume of the
oil storage chamber 132 increases toward the lower region and an oil stored in the lower region, that is to be returned to thesuction chamber 119, is effectively cooled. Further, the upper region of theoil storage chamber 132 does not bulge into thesuction chamber 119 or the upper region is smaller than the lower region in the bulge volume. Accordingly, heat exchange through the bulge portion of the upper region with the drawn refrigerant is suppressed, and it is possible to suppress unnecessary heating of the drawn refrigerant. - Here, the embodiments illustrated in the drawings are only examples of the present invention, and it is a matter of course that the present invention includes not only the constructions directly illustrated in the above embodiments, but also various improvements and modifications within the scope of claims usually done by a person skilled in the art.
- For example, the oil separation portion is of a centrifugal separation type employing a
separation pipe 130 in the above embodiments, but theseparation pipe 130 is not necessarily employed. Further, the oil separation portion may be of another separation type such as a collision separation type, or a region in thedischarge chamber 120 in which an oil tends to be accumulated may communicate with theoil separation chamber 132. - Further, in the above embodiments, the
oil separation chamber 132 is disposed so as to be sloped so that the open end is on the lower side, but the structure is not necessarily limited thereto and for example, the open end may be on the horizontally lateral side. - Further, in the above embodiments, the
oil separation chamber 132 is constituted by a tubular portion having a cylindrical shape, but the tubular portion may have a prismatic tubular shape such as a substantially quadrangular tubular shape. - Further, the
suction passage 104 a may have a bulge portion bulging into thesuction chamber 119, and in this configuration, an oil is more effectively cooled by drawn refrigerant flow. - Further, in the above embodiments, as the oil return passage, a structure in which the
oil storage chamber 132 communicates with thesuction chamber 119 via theorifice 136 is employed, but a valve may be disposed instead of the orifice, or theoil storage chamber 132 may communicate with thecrank chamber 105. - Further, in the above embodiments, a variable displacement compressor is employed as the refrigerant compressor, but it may be a fixed displacement compressor. Further, the compressor may be a clutchless compressor having no electromagnetic clutch, or a compressor driven by a motor.
