Abstract

Acoustic attenuating device for compressors which includes a hollow body having at least one input port, at least one output channel, at least one output port disposed in the at least one output channel, an intermediate body dividing the hollow body into two acoustic chambers, and a connection channel communicating the two acoustic chambers. Said connection channel includes two sub-channels, wherein one of the two sub-channels accommodates, at least partially, the output channel and the other one of the two sub-channels conforms fluid communication between the two acoustic chambers. The acoustic attenuating device further includes at least one blocker disposed between the outer side of the output channel and the inner side of the sub-channel which accommodates the output channel, wherein said blocker is capable of precluding flow between the two acoustic chambers, thereby reducing the amount of lubricating oil which flows out from the compressor into the cooling system.

Claims (11)

1. Acoustic attenuating device for compressor, comprising:

a hollow body shaping a structure having at least one input port, at least one output channel and at least one output port disposed in at least one output channel;

said structure defining at least two acoustic chambers, which are defined by at least one intermediate body;

said intermediate body being shaped by a platform that has a connection channel capable of conforming fluid communication between the at least two acoustic chambers;

said connection channel being built by at least a first sub-channel and a second sub-channel;

at least one among the at least a first sub-channel and a second sub-channel accommodates, at least partially, the output channel;

the acoustic attenuating device for compressors being specially characterized by still comprising at least one blocking means disposed between at least a first sub-channel and a second sub-channel and the output channel;

wherein the blocking means comprises a sealing element capable of blocking the flow of liquid flow between the internal side of at least a first sub-channel and a second sub-channel and the external side of the output channel;

wherein the blocking means comprises a peripheral protrusion disposed on the external side of the output channel.

2. Acoustic attenuating device for compressor, according to claim 1 , wherein the bottom portion of said output channel is totally accommodated inside the first sub-channel.

3. Acoustic attenuating device for compressor, according to claim 1 , wherein the end of said output channel is recessed relative to the end of the first sub-channel.
