Method and equipment for improving the efficiency of compressors and refrigerators

Abstract

Compressor with double compression chamber and gas purification process, having a set of movable mechanisms and fixed parts, and procedures for the preparation of refrigerators and hermetic compressors before filling with refrigerant gas, which greatly enhances the energetic efficiency and useful life of refrigeration compressors. Additional, by adding a process tube, made of copper, steel, or any other appropriate material to the side wall of the hermetic or semi-hermetic compressor, on its bottom, or attached vertically to the central base of the compressor. This additional tube and the traditional suction tubes, discharge process, follows an alternative construction format to enhance the efficiency and useful life of a refrigeration system.

1 . Process and equipment for enhanced efficiency of compressors and refrigerators, characterized by a copper or steel tube, named the decontamination tube, or any other appropriate material, which is attached horizontally to the side wall of the hermetic compressor, at the lowest part, or attached vertically to the middle back of the compressor at the end leaving horizontally from the compressor, for removing the residual atmospheric air, with a simultaneous exhaust for releasing a little refrigerant gas, so as to maintain the gas pressurized inside the system, free from atmospheric air for later on refilling the gas charge. 
     
     
         2 . Process and equipment for enhanced efficiency of compressors and refrigerators, characterized by a standard process, as described in the attached report, on the filling of refrigerant gas in refrigeration systems, in commonplace compressors, without any decontamination tube, which previously removes any existing atmospheric air from inside the system, opening the process tube and to release the gas with air, for the purpose of removing gas which contains residual air, allowing for the letting the purer refrigerant gas, free of any excessive contaminating air, for later filling up the gas charge. 
     
     
         3 . Process and equipment for enhanced efficiency of compressors and refrigerators, characterized by hermetic or semi-hermetic compressors, having process, suction and discharge tubes and decontamination tubes leaving horizontally straight, without any curvature, from the compressor housing. 
     
     
         4 . Process and equipment for enhanced efficiency of compressors and refrigerators, characterized by a cast-iron block or made from other material, which include cylinders and two separate symmetric pistons, which compose two symmetrically positioned compression chambers, being that the two pistons move horizontally by way of the vertical axle rotation action, between two pistons, being that the pistons are connected to the rotating axle by way of two connecting rods and two independent bearing housings, one over the other, being that this block includes the pistons and electric motor, it is suspended over four springs laid out as a rectangle, to prevent and/or reduce vibration and trembling of this assembly which flows to the refrigeration appliance. 
     
     
         5 . Process and equipment for enhanced efficiency of compressors and refrigerators, characterized by a set of overlaid bearing housing, which are connected to the respective connecting rods that are lined up in the same horizontal line. 
     
     
         6 . Process and equipment for enhanced efficiency of compressors and refrigerators, characterized by a smooth and thin washer, made from hard material, which is placed between the two independent bearing housings, being that these bearing housings are placed over the motor axle, being that these two independent bearing housings serve the purpose to connect each piston by way of their respective connecting rods. 
     
     
         7 . Process and equipment for enhanced efficiency of compressors and refrigerators, characterized by two copper, steel, or tubes made from other materials, which come out from their respective gas-compression chambers, being that the end of one of these tubes is connected to the beginning of the other, using a “lung” which concentrates the two fluid flows, being that the other tuber carries the fluid to the discharge tube leaving the compressor. 
     
     
         8 . Process and equipment for enhanced efficiency of compressors and refrigerators, characterized by two copper, steel, or tubes made from other materials, which leave from their respective gas-compression chamber, being that both ends of each tube converge to meet at the fluid-discharge tube, leaving the compressor. 
     
     
         9 . Process and equipment for enhanced efficiency of compressors and refrigerators, characterized by a hermetic housing which contains two symmetric chambers, whose block has four rectangular or square springs, being that the top cover of this hermetic housing, is shaped like two symmetric “backsides”, whose inside houses a block with two symmetric chambers. 
     
     
         10 . Process and equipment for enhanced efficiency of compressors and refrigerators, characterized by two pistons which move in a back-and-forth movement, being that both are aligned with the actuation, with the middle of the pistons aligned in the same midline movement, also being on the same alignment of the midpoints of the respective connecting rods for each piston.
