Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A rotary compressor of the sliding vane type, in which the vanes of the rotor slide resiliently along the inner surface of the stator the cross section profile of which defines three separate substantially circular arcs one of which has the same radius as the rotor and forms a transition zone or sealing area between the high pressure side and the low pressure side, the profile defining the inlet side or low pressure side having a radius of curvature which is greater than the mean radius of the stator and the profile defining the outlet side or high pressure side having a radius smaller than the mean radius of the stator, whereby the space between the inner surface of the stator increases continuously from substantially zero at the inlet side of the transition zone to its predetermined optimum and thereafter decreases continuously back to substantially zero at outlet side of the transition zone.
  • the invention is based on a more thorough transformation of the stator cross section in accordance with the requirements made within the different sectors of the compressor, the stator cross section being substantially composed of three arcs or curves of substantially circular shape.
  • One of these curves has the same radius as the rotor and forms a transition zone between the high pressure and low pressure side, as in the embodiment with countersunk rotor type.
  • the two other curves have respectively a somewhat greater and somewhat smaller radius of curvature than the mean radius of curvature of the stator, the greater radius of curvature being imparted to the inlet side and the smaller one to the outlet side.
  • the stator housing thus acquires a cross-section acoording to the accompanying claims, resulting in reduced power losses both at the inlet and outlet as well as of waste space, while at the same time securing smooth movements of the vanes along the stator surface.
  • FIG. 1 shows a conventional rotary compressor with a stator having circular cross-section.
  • FIG. 2 shows an indicator diagram for such a compressor.
  • FIG. 3 shows a rotary compressor according to the invention in which the stator defines a single operating cycle of 360.
  • FIG. 4 is similar to FIG. 3, and shows a comparison with the compressor with countersunk rotor.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 show compressors according to the invention designed with double chambers defining two operating cycles of 360 each, the first with and the second without discharge valves.
  • FIG. 7 shows an indicator diagram for the latter embodiment.
  • FIG. 1 shows a rotary compressor of the sliding vane type comprising a single chamber having a pressure valve 1, a rotor 2 and a stator 3 and vanes 4.
  • the vertical diameter in the compressor is the dividing line between the inlet portion and the outlet portion.
  • the inlet op ening is designated by ref. numeral 7.
  • the dead space is shown in solid and consists of an outlet 6 and the space 5 between the rotor 2, the stator 3 and the vane 4 in the position where the vane 4 is about to pass across the entrance of the outlet 6.
  • FIG. 2 shows a schematical indicator diagram which applies to the working cycle ofa vane, in which 8 designates useful compressor work, 9 loss due to dead space, 10 loss due to throttlings in gaps and valve system at the outlet side and 11 loss due to throttling effects at the inlet side.
  • the volumetric loss 11 may be reduced by increasing the flow areas on the inlet side.
  • FIG. 3 characterised by its unsymmetrical shape which provides an increased inlet area 12, and an increased gap area 13 while simultaneously reducing the waste space 5.
  • This profile also provides a more efficient sealing in the area 14 between the highand the low pressure sides where the statorand the rotor radii are the same, but it should not be confused with the conventional so called countersunk rotor", the only object of which is to provide an improved sealing in this same area.
  • FIG. 4 in which 15 is a countersunk rotor profile and 16 is the profile according to the invention, the respective sealing gaps of the two profiles being indicated by ref. numerals l7 and 14. It is important to note that the wedge shaped space 5 after the outlet holes 6 is reduced or fully eliminated, which implies that the work which would otherwise have been required for draining the working medium from this volume is regained.
  • FIG. 5 shows the present invention adapted to a rotary compressor of the sliding vane type in a double-chamber embodiment, and of course the adaptation can be made to an optional number of working chambers.
  • FIG. 6 shows the unsymmetrical stator profile adapted to a rotary compressor without pressure valves and FIG. 7 a schematic indicator diagram for this embodiment.
  • a rotary compressor of the sliding vane type comprising:
  • a cylindrical rotor housed within said stator and defining therebetween a low pressure portion yaving an inlet for the working fluid and a high pressure portion having an outlet for the working fluid;
  • one of said arcs having the same radius as said rotor and forming a transition zone providing a sliding seal between the stator and the rotor in said zone;
  • a third arc extending from said second arc having a radius of curvature smaller than the mean radius of the stator defining together with the rotor 21 high pressure zone decreasing progressively in volume to merge with the other end of said transition zone.
