| 20090191081 | SCROLL COMPRESSOR IMPROVED IN FUNCTION OF OIL CIRCULATION AND BACK PRESSURE CONTROL - Provided is a scroll compressor having an improved function of oil circulation and back pressure control. The scroll compressor includes: a housing; a drive part for generating a rotational force; a drive shaft driven by the drive part; and a scroll compression part including a stationary scroll fixed regardless of rotation of the drive shaft and having a scroll wrap for compressing sucked fluid and a discharge port for supplying coolant into a discharge chamber, and an orbiting scroll orbited depending on rotation of the drive shaft and having a scroll wrap, characterized in that the coolant compressed by the scroll compression part is conveyed to the discharge chamber, the coolant of the discharge chamber is separated into oil and gas in an oil separator, the gas being discharged through a discharge hole and the oil being supplied into a back pressure chamber through a return path formed in the stationary scroll, and the oil is returned into a suction chamber through a back pressure adjustment valve. | 07-30-2009 |
| 20090257890 | OIL SEPARATING STRUCTURE OF VARIABLE DISPLACEMENT COMPRESSOR - Provided is an oil separating structure of a variable displacement compressor including: a cylinder block having a plurality of cylinder bores; a front housing disposed in the front of the cylinder block to form a swash plate chamber; a drive shaft rotatably supported at the cylinder block; a lug plate disposed in the swash plate chamber of the front housing and fixedly installed at the drive shaft; a rear housing disposed in the rear of the cylinder block and having a discharge chamber and a suction chamber communicating with the cylinder bores; a swash plate installed to be rotated by the lug plate to vary its inclination angle; pistons connected to the swash plate and reciprocating in the cylinder bores; a suction path for communicating the swash plate chamber and the discharge chamber; an additional exhaust path for communicating the swash plate chamber and the suction chamber; and a control valve installed in the middle of the suction path, characterized in that the drive shaft has a communication aperture formed therein for communicating the swash plate chamber and the suction chamber, and the lug plate has a first communication hole passing therethrough and a second communication hole formed therein for communicating the first communication hole and the communication aperture. Therefore, oil and refrigerant are smoothly separated from each other using only the communication hole formed in the lug plate without an additional oil separator, thereby simplifying an inner constitution of a compressor. | 10-15-2009 |
| 20090317276 | SCROLL COMPRESSOR HAVING ROTATION PREVENTION MECHANISM - Provided is a scroll compressor having a rotation prevention mechanism including: a housing for accommodating components; a drive unit for generating a rotational force; a suction part for sucking fluid from the exterior; a scroll compression part including a stationary scroll constituted of a spiral scroll wrap for compressing the fluid sucked from the suction part and fixed regardless of rotation of a drive shaft of the drive unit, and an orbiting scroll orbited depending on rotation of the drive shaft and having a spiral scroll wrap; and a discharge part for discharging the high pressure fluid compressed by the scroll compression part, characterized in that a guide ring is installed between the stationary scroll and the suction-side housing, a plurality of fitting pins are installed to project forward from an outer periphery of the orbiting scroll, and a plurality of fitting grooves, in which the fitting pins are accommodated, are formed at an inner periphery of the guide ring. | 12-24-2009 |
| 20100141066 | INVERTER CONNECTION TERMINAL ASSEMBLY FOR ELECTRIC COMPRESSOR - The present invention provides an inverter connection terminal assembly for an electric compressor. The inverter connection terminal assembly includes a connection terminal, in which upper and lower terminal projections project from the upper and lower surfaces of a plate, respectively, an inverter connection cable connected to the upper terminal projection of the connection terminal, a motor connection cable connected to the lower terminal projection of the connection terminal, an upper connector for connecting the upper terminal projection and the inverter connection cable, and a lower connector for connecting the lower terminal projection and the motor connection cable, wherein the lower terminal projection of the connection terminal includes a thread formed on the surface thereof such that the motor connection cable is fixed to the lower terminal projection by fastening a nut while a washer and a ring connector are sequentially inserted into the lower terminal projection. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20110146215 | OIL SEPARATOR - An oil separator comprises: a hollow outer body having an inlet and a drain hole; and an inner tube spaced apart from an inner peripheral surface of the outer body and having a discharge hole at a center thereof. The inner peripheral surface of the outer tube guides oil toward the drain hole opposite to the discharge hole. The present invention provides an oil separator that maximizes an oil separating effect through enhancement of a centrifugal force. The present invention also provides an oil separator that maximizes an oil separating performance by preventing gas and oil from being remixed by guiding the flow direction of the oil separated by a centrifugal force using a spiral portion and a taper. | 06-23-2011 |
