It will be.
- the deformation of the casing 2 is divided into deformation due to pressure and deformation due to temperature change. Moreover, since the inner cylinder 2a, the intermediate cylinder 2b, and the outer cylinder 2c are connected, it is necessary to suppress the deformation of the entire casing 2 in order to suppress the deformation of the inner cylinder 2a. In order to suppress the deformation of the casing 2, it is necessary to suppress the above-mentioned deformation due to pressure and deformation due to temperature change. target.
- Embodiment 1 a method of cooling the casing 2 by circulating the refrigerant in the refrigerant circuit through the casing 2 is adopted.
- the refrigerant circuit of the cooling system has already been described with reference to FIG.
- the efficiency of the screw compressor 100 is improved by supplying the low pressure space 16 via the intermediate pressure chamber 15 .
- the casing 2 can be cooled and its deformation can be suppressed.
- the casing can be operated at a lower cost than when an external cooling system is used, without increasing the size of the device and increasing power consumption. 2 can suppress the deformation of the whole.
- the intermediate pressure refrigerant 15G returns to the low pressure space 16 for the purpose of improving the efficiency of the screw compressor 100, the pipes and the like are originally provided in the screw compressor 100, and can be realized without major structural changes. is.
- the temperature rise can be reduced by introducing a refrigerant equivalent to the intermediate-pressure refrigerant 15G from an external cooling system into the intermediate-pressure chamber 15 instead of the intermediate-pressure refrigerant 15G.
- the pressure is intermediate pressure refrigerant 15G>low pressure refrigerant 16G.
- the intermediate pressure refrigerant 15G is naturally supplied, and circulation of the refrigerant is possible without a special device. Therefore, the cooling structure of the casing 2 can be realized without adding a device, and the deformation of the casing 2 can be suppressed.
- the temperature of the inner cylinder 2a does not rise immediately after the screw compressor 100 is started or when the discharge temperature of the refrigerant changes suddenly, such as in the event of an abnormality. 2a may interfere.
- the intermediate pressure chamber 15 between the intermediate cylinder 2b and the outer cylinder 2c the excessive cooling of the inner cylinder 2a is suppressed, and the expansion of the screw rotor 3 due to the rapid temperature rise of the refrigerant is followed.
- the inner cylinder 2a is made expandable.
- the intermediate pressure chamber 15 is preferably provided between the intermediate cylinder 2b and the outer cylinder 2c, avoiding the portion where the slide valve 10 exists radially inward. Furthermore, since the fixed leg 1a is fixed to the housing or the like, the deformation between the two fixed legs 1a in the circumferential direction is originally suppressed by the rigidity of the fixed leg 1a and the housing (not shown). Therefore, even if the intermediate pressure chamber 15 is provided radially inward of this portion, the effect of suppressing deformation is small.
- the intermediate pressure chamber 15 is made larger, the required amount of the intermediate pressure refrigerant 15G becomes larger, which causes problems such as an increase in the amount of refrigerant used. Further, the high-pressure space 17 is the refrigerant path after the discharge flow path 7 . Therefore, it is sufficient that the intermediate pressure chamber 15 is generally formed on the side of the bearing 12 that is on the side opposite to the motor 4 in the axial direction from the discharge passage 7 .
- the intermediate pressure chamber 15 is located between the intermediate cylinder 2b and the outer cylinder 2c, avoiding the slide valve 10, and excluding the radially inner portion between the fixed legs 1a. Placement is optimal for maximum effectiveness at lowest cost. That is, as shown in FIG. 3 , the intermediate pressure chamber 15 is provided between the two slide valves 10 in the circumferential direction and radially outward of the slide valves 10 .
- the intermediate pressure chamber 15 When the intermediate pressure chamber 15 is provided around the slide valve 10, the rigidity around the slide valve 10 can be increased. There is also a problem that the efficiency of the screw compressor 100 is lowered due to insufficient deformation or an increase in pressure loss of the refrigerant. However, if these problems are solved, it is possible to provide the intermediate pressure chamber 15 around the slide valve 10. Therefore, providing the intermediate pressure chamber 15 around the slide valve 10 is not completely excluded. .
- a region where intermediate-pressure refrigerant accumulates is generally provided outside the outer cylinder.
- the purpose of this is to obtain a buffer to prevent vibration of the piping.
- the operating temperature outside the outer cylinder is the outside air temperature.
- the temperature of the intermediate-pressure refrigerant is often higher than that of the outside air, so it is difficult to obtain the effect of reducing the temperature rise of the casing using this buffer.
- the distance from the inner cylinder 2a housing the screw rotor 3 whose deformation is most desired to be suppressed is far, and a sufficient effect cannot be obtained.
- Embodiment 2 The screw compressor according to the second embodiment will be described below, focusing on the parts different from the first embodiment.
- 9 is a front view of casing 202 of screw compressor 100.
- the screw compressor 100 according to Embodiment 2 since the roundness of the casing 2 can be maintained, the clearance between the screw rotor 3 and the inner cylinder 2a is uniform compared to the structure in which only one is cooled. , the efficiency of the screw compressor 100 is improved, and interference between the screw rotor 3 and the inner cylinder 2a can be prevented.

本明細書で、特に断り無く「軸方向」、「周方向」、「径方向」、「内周側」、「外周側」、「内周面」、「外周面」、というときは、それぞれ、スクリュー圧縮機の「軸方向」、「周方向」、「径方向」、「内周側」、「外周側」、「内周面」、「外周面」をいうものとする。
図2は、スクリュー圧縮機100のケーシング2の斜視図である。
図3は、図1のA-A断面図(ケーシング2のみを図示)である。なお、図1は、図3のC-C断面部分に相当する(ケーシング2以外の構成も図示)。
図3に示すように、スクリュー圧縮機100のケーシング2は、径方向に連結された円筒状の外筒2cと、中間筒2bと、内筒2aとを有する。外筒2c、中間筒2b、内筒2aは、外側から順に入れ子状に連結されている。また、外筒2c、中間筒2b、内筒2aは、全て一体に構成されている。
図5A~図5Cは、スクリュー圧縮機100の圧縮工程を示す図である。
図7は、冷媒回路の概略回路図の他の例を示す図である。
図7に示すように、例えば、凝縮器18と蒸発器19との間に中間熱交換器20を設置する場合がある。この場合、中間熱交換器20の前の冷媒回路に設けた膨張弁EXによって減圧された冷媒を、中間熱交換器20に通すことによって熱交換(採熱)してから中間圧冷媒15Gとしてスクリュー圧縮機100の中間圧室15に入れる。本願の効果を得るには、どの方法を用いても温度と圧力の関係が低圧冷媒16G<中間圧冷媒15G<高圧冷媒17Gを満たしていればよい。
図8Bは、図8AのE-E断面図であり、中間圧室15から低圧空間16に連通する流路の一部を示す図である。
図8A、図8Bには、ケーシング2と、軸受ハウジング13のみを描いている。
図8A、図8Bに示すように、外筒2cに設けられた接続孔15inは、中間圧室15に連通する。また、軸受ハウジング13には、モータ4側に向かって軸方向に凹んだ第一溝13mが、円環状に設けられている。そして中間圧室15と第一溝13mとは、連通路P1によって接続されて連通している。
以下、実施の形態2によるスクリュー圧縮機を、実施の形態1と異なる部分を中心に説明する。
図9は、スクリュー圧縮機100のケーシング202の正面図である。
本実施の形態2では、実施の形態1で説明した中間圧室15を2カ所とし、ケーシング202の中心軸に対して対称となる位置にそれぞれ設けている。
従って、例示されていない無数の変形例が、本願に開示される技術の範囲内において想定される。例えば、少なくとも1つの構成要素を変形する場合、追加する場合または省略する場合、さらには、少なくとも1つの構成要素を抽出し、他の実施の形態の構成要素と組み合わせる場合が含まれるものとする。
