Piston compressor, particularly hermetically enclosed refrigerant compressor
The invention concerns a piston compressor, particularly a hermetically enclosed refrigerant compressor, with at least one cylinder a piston reciprocating in said cylinder, the piston being connected with a driving rod via a piston pin and having in its outer jacket surface a circumferential lubrication groove, the piston pin having a longitudinal bore, which is connected with a lubricant source. It is endeavoured to improve the lubrication. For this purpose, the longitudinal bore is open downward in the gravity direction and has a ventilation opening upward.
1. A piston compressor comprising at least one cylinder and a piston reciprocating in said cylinder, the piston being connected with a driving rod via a piston pin and having in its outer jacket surface a circumferential lubrication groove, the piston pin having a longitudinal bore, which is connected with a lubricant source, and wherein in a gravity direction the longitudinal bore is open downward and has a ventilation opening upward, the ventilation opening of the longitudinal bore is connected with a ventilation path through the piston and, the ventilation path has a larger flow resistance for the lubricant than the longitudinal bore and the lubrication groove.
2. The piston compressor according to claim 1 , wherein the ventilation opening is arranged at the upper end of the longitudinal bore.
3. The piston compressor according to claim 1 , wherein the longitudinal bore is made as a through-bore.
4. The piston compressor according to claim 1 , wherein the ventilation opening is connected with the lubrication groove.
5. The piston compressor according to claim 1 , wherein the ventilation path is formed by at least one recess between piston pin and piston.
6. The piston compressor according to claim 5 , wherein the piston is hollow and the recess extends from the ventilation opening into the hollow inside of the piston.
7. The piston compressor according to claim 5 , wherein the recess is arranged in a plane set up by the lubrication groove.
8. A piston compressor comprising at least one cylinder and a piston reciprocating in said cylinder, the piston being connected with a driving rod via a piston pin and having in its outer jacket surface a circumferential lubrication groove, the piston pin having a longitudinal bore, which is connected with a lubricant source, and wherein in a gravity direction the longitudinal bore is open downward and has a ventilation opening upward, wherein the ventilation opening of the longitudinal bore is connected with a ventilation path through the piston, wherein the ventilation path is formed by at least one recess between piston pin and piston, and wherein the recess is formed by a flattening of the piston pin.
9. A piston compressor comprising at least one cylinder and a piston reciprocating in said cylinder, the piston being connected with a driving rod via a piston pin and having in its outer jacket surface a circumferential lubrication groove, the piston pin having a longitudinal bore, which is connected with a lubricant source, and wherein in a gravity direction the longitudinal bore is open downward and has a ventilation opening upward, wherein the ventilation opening of the longitudinal bore is connected with a ventilation path through the piston, wherein the ventilation path is formed by at least one recess between piston pin and piston, and wherein the recess ends above a bearing surface between piston pin and driving rod.
10. A piston compressor comprising at least one cylinder and a piston reciprocating in said cylinder, the piston being connected with a driving rod via a piston pin and having in its outer jacket surface a circumferential lubrication groove, the piston pin having a longitudinal bore, which is connected with a lubricant source, and wherein in a gravity direction the longitudinal bore is open downward and has a ventilation opening upward, and the piston pin is unrotatably held in the driving rod and rotatably supported in relation to the piston.
