Closed compressor and refrigeration device using the same
View Patent ↗A closed compressor is provided with a flexible oil fence, of which a fixed portion as one end is fixed onto an upper surface of a cylinder between a shaft and a cylinder head and a free end as the other end extends toward an upper inner surface of a closed container. According to this configuration, a collision sound can be prevented from being generated even when the oil fence collides with the upper inner surface of the closed container and hot oil can be prevented from flowing along a surface of suction muffler.
1. A closed compressor comprising:
a closed container that reserves oil and accommodates an electric motor and a compression unit driven by the electric motor,
wherein the compression unit includes
a shaft that is constituted by a main shaft portion and an eccentric shaft portion and includes an oil supply passage in which a lower end of the main shaft portion is immersed in the oil and an upper end portion of the eccentric shaft portion opens into the closed container, the oil being scattered from the upper end portion of the eccentric shaft portion,
a cylinder that is disposed to be separated from the shaft in a lateral direction,
a cylinder head that is disposed to be further separated from the shaft in the lateral direction and is disposed beside the cylinder, and
a suction muffler that is disposed below the cylinder head and through which a refrigerant gas passes,
wherein an oil fence made of a flexible material, of which a fixed portion as one end is fixed onto an upper surface of the cylinder between the shaft and the cylinder head and a free end as the other end extends toward an upper inner surface of the closed container, is provided, and wherein the free end of the oil fence is configured to contact the upper inner surface of the closed container.
2. The closed compressor of claim 1 ,
wherein the fixed portion of the oil fence is fixed to an end portion of the upper surface of the cylinder which is proximate to the shaft.
3. The closed compressor of claim 1 ,
wherein the compression unit is inverter-driven at a plurality of operation frequencies by the electric unit.
4. A refrigeration device comprising:
a refrigerant circuit in which a compressor, a radiator, a decompressor and a heat absorber are connected into an annular shape via a pipe,
wherein the compressor is the closed compressor of claim 1 .
5. The closed compressor of claim 2 ,
wherein the compression unit is inverter-driven at a plurality of operation frequencies by the electric unit.
6. A refrigeration device comprising:
a refrigerant circuit in which a compressor, a radiator, a decompressor and a heat absorber are connected into an annular shape via a pipe,
wherein the compressor is the closed compressor of claim 2 .
7. A refrigeration device comprising:
a refrigerant circuit in which a compressor, a radiator, a decompressor and a heat absorber are connected into an annular shape via a pipe,
wherein the compressor is the closed compressor of claim 3 .
8. A refrigeration device comprising:
a refrigerant circuit in which a compressor, a radiator, a decompressor decompression device and a heat absorber absorbing device are connected into an annular shape via a pipe,
wherein the compressor is the closed compressor of claim 5 .
9. A closed compressor comprising:
a closed container that reserves oil and accommodates an electric motor and a compression unit driven by the electric motor,
wherein the compression unit includes
a shaft that is constituted by a main shaft portion and an eccentric shaft portion and includes an oil supply passage in which a lower end of the main shaft portion is immersed in the oil and an upper end portion of the eccentric shaft portion opens into the closed container, the oil being scattered from the upper end portion of the eccentric shaft portion,
a cylinder that is disposed to be separated from the shaft in a lateral direction and includes a slot that is formed on an upper side surface on a shaft side,
a cylinder head that is disposed to be further separated from the shaft in the lateral direction and is disposed beside the cylinder, and
a piston that is disposed below the slot and reciprocates in the cylinder,
wherein an oil fence made of a flexible material, of which a fixed portion as one end is fixed onto an upper surface of the cylinder between the shaft and the cylinder head and a free end as the other end extends toward an upper inner surface of the closed container, is provided, and wherein the free end of the oil fence is configured to contact the upper inner surface of the closed container.
