Turbo compressor and turbo refrigerator
Provided is a turbo compressor that includes: a compressor unit compressing a gas; a motor driving the compressor unit; and a motor casing accommodating the motor. In the turbo compressor, the motor casing includes: a body portion which is molded in a cylindrical shape; an annular diameter reduced portion which is connected to at least one end portion of the body portion in the rotation axis direction of the motor and of which the diameter is reduced as it moves away from the body portion; and a flat portion which is connected to the central end portion of the diameter reduced portion and is molded in a planar shape.
1. A turbo compressor comprising:
a compressor unit which compresses a gas;
a motor which drives the compressor unit; and
a motor casing which accommodates the motor,
wherein the motor casing includes:
a body portion which is molded in a cylindrical shape and extends in the rotation axis direction of the motor; and
a pair of blocking covers which are configured to block a pair of open end portions located at both sides of the body portion,
wherein at least one of the blocking covers includes: an annular diameter reduced portion which is in direct physical contact with at least one of the pair of open end portion of the body portion, the annular diameter reduced portion having an outer diameter thereof that is reduced as it moves away from the body portion; and
a flat portion which is integrally molded with the annular diameter reduced portion via a whole circumference of the central end portion of the annular diameter reduced portion and is molded in a planar shape.
2. The turbo compressor according to claim 1 , wherein the motor includes an output shaft outputting a drive force driving the compressor, the motor casing includes a support portion provided at the flat portion and rotatably supporting the output shaft, and the support portion protrudes from the flat portion toward the motor.
3. The turbo compressor according to claim 1 , wherein the flat portion includes a plurality of reinforcement portions extending in the radial direction.
4. The turbo compressor according to claim 2 , wherein the flat portion includes a plurality of reinforcement portions extending in the radial direction.
5. A turbo refrigerator comprising:
a condenser which cools and liquefies a compressed refrigerant;
an evaporator which cools a cooling object by evaporating the liquefied refrigerant and taking evaporation heat from the cooling object; and
a compressor which compresses the refrigerant evaporated by the evaporator and supplies the compressed refrigerant to the condenser,
wherein the turbo compressor according to claim 1 is used as the compressor.
6. A turbo refrigerator comprising:
a condenser which cools and liquefies a compressed refrigerant;
an evaporator which cools a cooling object by evaporating the liquefied refrigerant and taking evaporation heat from the cooling object; and
a compressor which compresses the refrigerant evaporated by the evaporator and supplies the compressed refrigerant to the condenser,
wherein the turbo compressor according to claim 2 is used as the compressor.
7. A turbo refrigerator comprising:
a condenser which cools and liquefies a compressed refrigerant;
an evaporator which cools a cooling object by evaporating the liquefied refrigerant and taking evaporation heat from the cooling object; and
a compressor which compresses the refrigerant evaporated by the evaporator and supplies the compressed refrigerant to the condenser,
wherein the turbo compressor according to claim 3 is used as the compressor.
8. A turbo refrigerator comprising:
a condenser which cools and liquefies a compressed refrigerant;
an evaporator which cools a cooling object by evaporating the liquefied refrigerant and taking evaporation heat from the cooling object; and
a compressor which compresses the refrigerant evaporated by the evaporator and supplies the compressed refrigerant to the condenser,
wherein the turbo compressor according to claim 4 is used as the compressor.
9. The turbo compressor according to claim 1 , wherein the annular diameter reduced portion includes an inclined plane which has the outer diameter thereof that is reduced as it moves away from the body portion.
