CO2 compressor
InactiveUS6129532ASmall sizeStable, reliable lubricant supply unitRotary/oscillating piston combinations for elastic fluidsCompressorForeign matterDifferential pressure
A CO2 compressor is disclosed for forcing and moving a lubricant under discharge pressure. If the oil path is reduced in size or a pressure reducing part is inserted to handle the large differential pressure caused between the discharge pressure and the intake pressure, the oil path would become liable to be easily clogged by foreign matter. In view of this, an intermittent oil supply mechanism is formed in the oil path using the sliding contact portion between a fixed member of the compressor body and a movable member. Thus, the substantial lubrication time period is shortened and the amount of oil supplied is limited.
