20090041593 | VARIABLE DISPLACEMENT TYPE GEAR PUMP - A variable displacement type gear pump has gear chambers, one of which is a specific gear chamber. A suction passage is formed in the housing so as to communicate with suction-side spaces. An outlet passage communicates with discharge-side spaces. A return passage returns the fluid discharged to the discharge-side space of the specific gear chamber to the suction passage. The return passage communicates with the suction passage at a confluence portion located upstream side of the suction-side space. An opening and closing valve opens the return passage in a small displacement operational state. A check valve is located between the discharge-side space of the specific gear chamber and the outlet passage for preventing the fluid discharged from the gear chamber other than the specific gear chamber from flowing into the discharge-side space of the specific gear chamber in the small displacement operational state. | 02-12-2009 |
20090041594 | VARIABLE DISPLACEMENT TYPE GEAR PUMP - In a variable displacement type gear pump, each of a main gear pump portion and a sub gear pump portion has a drive gear, a driven gear engaging with the drive gear, and an urging portion applying radial load to the drive and driven gears. A bypass passage returns fluid in a discharge-side space of the sub gear pump portion to a suction passage. An opening and closing valve opens the bypass passage in a small displacement operational state. A drive shaft supports the main drive gear and the sub drive gear. A driven shaft supports the main driven gear and the sub driven gear. The drive gears and the driven gears are rotated in accordance with a rotation of the drive shaft. The drive and driven shafts transmit the radial load in the main gear pump portion to the sub gear pump portion in the small displacement operational state. | 02-12-2009 |
20120014825 | ROOTS TYPE FLUID MACHINE - A roots type fluid machine includes a case having a side wall, a pair of rotary shafts provided in the case, a pair of rotors engaged with each other and fixed to the pair of rotary shafts so as to extend axially, respectively, a suction space formed by the case and the pair of rotors for introducing fluid, a discharge space formed by the case for discharging fluid and the pair of rotors and a transfer chamber formed by the case and the rotor. The rotor has a rotor end surface. A clearance is formed between the side wall and the rotor end surface. The transfer chamber transfers gas introduced in the suction space to the discharge space in accordance with the rotation of the pair of rotors. The case has a guide groove formed in the side wall facing the rotor end surface. Gas leaked from the discharge space into the clearance is introduced to the transfer chamber through the guide groove. | 01-19-2012 |

20130094987 | MOTOR-DRIVEN COMPRESSOR - A motor-driven compressor includes a compression mechanism. The compression mechanism includes a stationary scroll and a movable scroll. The movable scroll and the stationary scroll form a compression chamber. The motor-driven compressor has an electric motor accommodated in a motor chamber, a suction pressure zone, a discharge pressure zone, and an oil passage, which is connected either to the compression chamber or the discharge pressure zone. The electric motor includes a rotary shaft and drives the movable scroll via the rotary shaft. A main bearing located in the vicinity of the compression mechanism rotationally supports the rotary shaft. The rotary shaft has an in-shaft passage. The in-shaft passage has an inlet, which is directly connected to the oil passage, and an outlet, which opens to the motor chamber. The main bearing is exposed in the oil passage. The motor chamber is the suction pressure zone. | 04-18-2013 |
20130259726 | MOTOR-DRIVEN COMPRESSOR - A motor-driven compressor includes a back pressure region that pushes a movable scroll against a fixed scroll. The back pressure region is located at a side of the movable scroll located proximate to an opposing member. A defining portion, which is arranged on a movable end face, contact an opposing end face to define the back pressure region and a suction pressure region. The opposing member includes a communicating portion. An orbiting motion of the movable scroll moves the defining portion. This intermittently communicates the communicating portion with the back pressure region and the suction pressure region. | 10-03-2013 |
20140044573 | MOTOR-DRIVEN COMPRESSOR - A motor-driven compressor includes an electric motor including a stator and a rotor, wherein the stator includes a stator core and a coil end projecting from the stator core, a rotation shaft, a compression unit, a motor driving circuit, a housing accommodating the compression unit, the electric motor, and the motor driving circuit sequentially arranged in an axial direction of the rotation shaft, a conductor configured to electrically connect the motor driving circuit to the electric motor, a lead extending from the coil end, a connection terminal electrically connecting the conductor to the lead, and a cluster block accommodating the connection terminal. The cluster block is arranged in the housing. The cluster block is coupled to the stator with at least part of the cluster block located inward from the coil end in a radial direction of the rotation shaft. | 02-13-2014 |
20150152731 | SCROLL COMPRESSOR - In a motor-driven scroll compressor of the present invention, a double-sided sliding bearing is provided a space between a drive bush and a boss portion. The double-sided sliding bearing has a cylindrical outer sliding member that is provided in the boss portion, and a cylindrical inner sliding member that is provided in the bush portion. In an outer boundary zone of an inner circumferential surface of the boss portion and an outer circumferential surface of the outer sliding member, and an inner boundary zone of an inner circumferential surface of the inner sliding member and an outer circumferential surface of the bush portion, relative rotation is generated. The outer sliding member and the inner sliding member have different lengths in an axial direction, and thereby form a first and a second steps at both ends in the axial direction. | 06-04-2015 |

20150198159 | COMPRESSOR - A compressor includes a discharge housing member, which includes a discharge chamber and an oil separation chamber. The discharge housing member includes a cylindrical wall defining the discharge chamber and the oil separation chamber. The discharge chamber includes a partition that is continuous with and protrudes from the cylindrical wall. The cylindrical wall extends from an upper section of the discharge chamber toward a lower section of the discharge chamber. The cylindrical wall includes a communication hole connecting the discharge chamber to the oil separation chamber. The partition extends from the upper section of the discharge chamber toward the lower section of the discharge chamber and defines a first space and a second space in the discharge chamber. The first space and the second space are connected to each other at least at the lower section of the discharge chamber through a clearance between the partition and the circumferential wall. | 07-16-2015 |
