  • the present invention relates to a co-rotating scroll compressor.
  • the co-rotating scroll compressor includes a driving-side scroll and a driven-side scroll that rotates together with and in synchronization with the driving-side scroll.
  • the co-rotating scroll compressor rotates the driving shaft and the driven shaft in the same direction at the same angular velocity by offsetting a driven shaft that supports the rotation of the driven-side scroll from a driving shaft that rotates the driving-side scroll by the turning radius.
  • An outer peripheral ring portion is provided on the driven-side scroll in PTL 1, and this outer peripheral annular block portion has a shape that surrounds the outer periphery of the driven scroll.
  • the outer peripheral annular block portion is advantage in that the rigidity of the driven scroll is enhanced and the deformation of an end plate is suppressed, but it becomes difficult to respond to high acceleration because the rotation inertia force increases.
  • the present invention has been made in view of the situation as above, and an object thereof is to provide a co-rotating scroll compressor that enables speed up and high acceleration.

  • the fixing portions 91 f and 92 f provided on the driven-side walls 91 b and 92 b are bulging portions obtained by increasing the board thickness of the driven-side walls 91 b and 92 b radially outward, and are in positions separated from the radially outside end portions in the inner circumferential direction (winding starting direction) of the driven-side walls 91 b and 92 b.
  • a shaft portion 33 a is provided on the central axis side of the first supporting member 33 , and the shaft portion 33 a is fixed to the housing 3 via a bearing 37 for the first supporting member.
  • a shaft portion 35 a is provided on the central axis side of the second supporting member 35 , and the shaft portion 35 a is fixed to the housing 3 via a bearing 38 for the second supporting member.
  • the driven-side scroll member 90 is rotated about the second center axis CL 2 via the supporting members 33 and 35 .
  • the shapes of the supporting members 33 and 35 are similar to that of the driven-side supporting member 22 in the first embodiment described with reference to FIG. 5 .
  • the pin ring mechanism 15 is provided between the first supporting member 33 and the first driving-side end plate 71 a . That is, the ring member 15 a is provided in the first driving-side end plate 71 a , and the pin member 15 b is provided in the first supporting member 33 . As illustrated in FIG. 5 , three pin members 15 b are provided so as to correspond to the positions of the supporting portions of the first supporting member 33 .
  • the pin ring mechanism 15 is provided between the second supporting member 35 and the second driving-side end plate 72 a . That is, the ring member 15 a is provided in the second driving-side end plate 72 a , and the pin member 15 b is provided in the second supporting member 35 . As illustrated in FIG. 5 , three pin members 15 b are provided so as to correspond to the positions of the supporting portions of the second supporting member 35 .
  • the scroll accommodation portion 3 b of the housing 3 is divided at the substantially middle portion of the scroll members 70 and 90 in the axial direction, and fixed by a bolt 32 .
  • the co-rotating scroll compressor 1 B having the abovementioned configuration operates as follows.
  • both of the scroll members 70 and 90 rotationally move in the same direction at the same angular velocity
  • the air sucked from the suction opening in the housing 3 is sucked from the outer periphery side of both of the scroll members 70 and 90 , and is taken into the compression chamber formed by both of the scroll members 70 and 90 .
  • the compression chamber formed by the first driving-side wall 71 b and the first driven-side wall 91 b and the compression chamber formed by the second driving-side wall 72 b and the second driven-side wall 92 b are separately compressed.
  • the capacity of the compression chambers decreases as the compression chambers approach the center side, and the air is compressed accordingly.
  • the air compressed by the first driving-side wall 71 b and the first driven-side wall 91 b flows through a through hole 90 h formed in the driven-side end plate 90 a , and is merged with air compressed by the second driving-side wall 72 b and the second driven-side wall 92 b .
  • the merged air flows through the exhaust port 72 d and is exhausted to the outside from the exhaust opening 3 d in the housing 3 .
  • the exhausted compressed air is guided to an internal combustion engine (not shown) and is used as combustion air.
  • the fixing portions 91 f and 92 f are provided in places separated from the radially outside end portions of the driven-side walls 91 b and 92 b in the inner circumferential direction, and hence the stress generated on the fixing portions 91 f and 92 f can be reduced. As a result, the speed up and the high acceleration can be responded to.
  • the co-rotating scroll compressor is used as the supercharger, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the co-rotating scroll compressor can be widely used as long as fluid is compressed.
  • the co-rotating scroll compressor can be used as a refrigerant compressor used in an air conditioning unit.
  • an equiangular interval that is 120° is preferred, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
  • the angle tolerance for the equiangular interval is ⁇ 10°, and the interval may preferably be a substantially equiangular interval of which angle tolerance is ⁇ 1°.
  • pin ring mechanism 15 is used as a synchronous driving mechanism, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the pin ring mechanism 15 may be used as a crank pin mechanism, for example.
