Abstract
The present invention includes an electric component ( 331 ), a compression component ( 327 ), a sealed container ( 301 ), a suction pipe ( 324 ) and a discharge passage ( 405, 425 a , 425, 470, 473 ). The compression component includes a crankshaft ( 343, 709 ), an oil feeding mechanism ( 368, 431, 433, 434, 708, 712, 713 ), an oil feeding passage ( 440, 714 ), and a scattering suppressing section ( 355, 455, 458, 461, 610, 616, 619, 706, 716 ). The scattering suppressing section suppresses the lubricating oil from being scattered from an opening of the oil feeding passage.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A sealed compressor comprising:
an electric component; a compression component actuated by the electric component; and a sealed container which accommodates the electric component and the compression component and stores lubricating oil in a bottom portion thereof; a suction pipe for guiding a refrigerant gas suctioned into and compressed by the compression component to an inner space of the sealed container; and a discharge passage for guiding the refrigerant gas compressed by the compression component, from the compression component to outside of the sealed container; wherein the compression component includes: a crankshaft including a main shaft rotated by the electric component and an eccentric shaft which is eccentric with the main shaft; an oil feeding mechanism provided in the main shaft to feed the lubricating oil stored in the bottom portion of the sealed container to slide portions of the compression component; an oil feeding passage provided in the eccentric shaft, communicated with the oil feeding mechanism and having an opening in a surface of the eccentric shaft; and a scattering suppressing section for suppressing the lubricating oil from being scattered from the opening of the oil feeding passage.
2 . The sealed compressor according to claim 1 ,
wherein the compression component further includes:
a block provided with a compression chamber inside thereof;
a piston reciprocatable inside of the compression chamber; and
a cylinder head which is fastened to one end of the block and seals one end of the compression chamber;
wherein the scattering suppressing section includes a head separating wall provided integrally with the block and positioned between the cylinder head and the crankshaft.
3 . The sealed compressor according to claim 1 ,
wherein the opening of the oil feeding passage is provided in an upper end surface of the eccentric shaft.
4 . The sealed compressor according to claim 1 ,
wherein the scattering suppressing section includes a sealing lid for closing the opening of the oil feeding passage.
5 . The sealed compressor according to claim 4 ,
wherein the sealing lid has a small hole.
6 . The sealed compressor according to claim 1 ,
wherein the scattering suppressing section includes a guide cover which covers the opening of the oil feeding passage and opens at a lower end surface side of the eccentric shaft.
7 . The sealed compressor according to claim 6 ,
wherein the compression component further includes:
a block provided with a compression chamber inside thereof;
a piston reciprocatable inside of the compression chamber; and
a thrust bearing mechanism which is provided in the block and supports the crankshaft such that the crankshaft is rotatable; wherein the scattering suppressing section includes a scattering direction changing section one end of which is communicated with an opening of the guide cover and the other end of which extends toward the thrust bearing.
8 . The sealed compressor according to claim,
wherein the compression component further includes: a block provided with a compression chamber inside thereof; a piston reciprocatable inside of the compression chamber; a connecting rod, a smaller-end portion of which is rotatably connected to the piston and a larger-end portion of which is rotatably fitted to the eccentric shaft; and a larger-diameter groove formed in an outer peripheral surface of the eccentric shaft in a fitting portion at which the eccentric shaft is fitted to the larger-end portion of the connecting rod or a surface of the larger-end portion of the connecting rod in the fitting portion at which the larger-end portion is fitted to the eccentric shaft; wherein the opening of the oil feeding passage is formed in the outer peripheral surface of the eccentric shaft, and the larger-diameter groove is communicated with the opening; and wherein the scattering suppressing section includes the larger-end portion of the connecting rod, and a closed oil feeding passage formed inside of the eccentric shaft such that the closed oil feeding passage is communicated with the oil feeding passage, one end thereof opens in a lower end surface of the eccentric shaft and the other end thereof is closed.
9 . The sealed compressor according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a chamber provided in a portion of the discharge passage and having an inner space defining an expansion space of the refrigerant gas compressed by the compression component.
10 . The sealed compressor according to claim 9 ,
wherein the scattering suppressing section includes a blocking wall provided between the crankshaft and the chamber.
11 . The sealed compressor according to claim 1 ,
wherein the compression component further includes: a block provided with a compression chamber inside thereof; a piston reciprocatable inside of the compression chamber; a valve plate provided at an end portion of the compression chamber and including a suction hole and a discharge hole; a cylinder head having a space communicated with the compression chamber via the suction hole and the discharge hole; and a valve sub-plate provided between the valve plate and the cylinder head to suppress heat from being transferred between the block and the cylinder head.
12 . The sealed compressor according to claim 11 ,
wherein the valve sub-plate has a non-contact space in at least one of a surface at the valve plate side and a surface at the cylinder head side, the non-contact space being formed by reducing a wall thickness of the valve sub-plate.
13 . The sealed compressor according to claim 1 ,
wherein the lubricating oil has a viscosity which is equal to or less than 8 centistokes at 40 degrees C.
14 . The sealed compressor according to claim 1 ,
wherein the refrigerant gas includes a cooling medium containing at least one of fluorine atoms and a double bond of oxygen; and wherein the sealed compressor constitutes a closed refrigeration system.
15 . The sealed compressor according to claim 1 ,
wherein the refrigerant gas includes a hydrocarbon-based cooling medium; and wherein the sealed compressor constitutes a refrigeration system which is limited in an amount of the refrigerant gas filled therein.
16 . The sealed compressor according to claim 1 ,
wherein the sealed compressor constitutes a refrigeration system for heating.
17 . The sealed compressor according to claim 1 ,
wherein the sealed compressor is used for freezing or chilling; and wherein the sealed compressor constitutes a closed refrigeration system in which a compression ratio is greater than 10.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
