Currently, when a compressor operates at high speed, the crankshaft rotates at high speed within the constraints of the bearings. The unbalanced forces generated by the rotor assembly cause the long axis of the crankshaft to deflect and bend. The flange bearings constrain the crankshaft, making it susceptible to deformation. This further increases contact stress concentration between the flange bearing and the crankshaft, directly impacting the reliability and noise of the flange bearing and the entire compressor.

[0032] See also Figure 1 As shown, according to an embodiment of the present application, a pump body assembly includes a flange 1, a muffler 2 and a first reinforcement portion 3, the flange 1 includes a flange neck 11; the muffler 2 includes a shell, the shell has a first opening 211, and the flange neck 11 is arranged in the first opening 211; the first reinforcement portion 3 is arranged on the inner circumference side of the first opening 211; the first reinforcement portion 3 is used to fix the flange neck 11, and by fixing the flange neck 11 by the first reinforcement portion 3, the flange's anti-deformation ability can be increased.

[0033] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the present application also discloses some embodiments, in which the first reinforcement portion 3 is an annular reinforcement portion circumferentially arranged around the inner wall of the first opening 211 , which can better fix the flange neck 11 .

[0034] Furthermore, the flange is an upper flange.

[0035] Furthermore, the thickness of the annular reinforcement portion is greater than the thickness of the shell, so that the strength of the annular reinforcement portion is greater, and the flange neck 11 can be better fixed.

[0036] And / or, the inner diameter of the annular reinforcement portion is d1; the outer diameter of the flange neck 11 is d2; wherein d1=d2, that is, the inner surface of the annular reinforcement portion contacts the outer surface of the flange neck 11, and then fixes it, which can better fix the flange neck 11, thereby effectively increasing the deformation resistance of the upper flange.

[0037] Furthermore, in the direction close to the central axis of the first opening 211, the thickness of the annular reinforcement portion gradually increases and forms a "T"-shaped structure. The thickness of the "T"-shaped structure, that is, the contact point with the flange neck 11, is the largest, so the contact area with the flange neck 11 is large, which makes the fixing effect better, further reduces the contact stress concentration between the crankshaft 5 and the upper flange bearing, and thereby reduces friction loss and noise.

[0038] And / or, the annular reinforcement portion is loosely matched with the flange neck 11, so as to achieve a reinforcing and fixing effect of the muffler on the upper flange neck, thereby effectively increasing the deformation resistance of the upper flange.

[0039] See also Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the present application also discloses some embodiments, wherein the flange 1 further includes a flange end 12 ; the shell is connected to the flange end 12 .

[0040] Furthermore, the shell has a second opening 22, which is arranged opposite to the first opening 211; the inner wall of the second opening 22 is threadedly connected to the outer peripheral side of the flange end 12, avoiding the deformation caused by the silencer squeezing the upper flange end face when the silencer is assembled by screws.

[0041] The pump body structure of the present application includes a crankshaft 5, an upper flange, a silencer, a cylinder 6, a vane 7, a roller 8, and a lower flange. The motor rotor drives the crankshaft 5 to rotate, the upper flange is sleeved on the outside of the long axis of the crankshaft 5, the silencer is assembled on the outside of the upper flange, and the roller 8 is assembled at the eccentric part of the crankshaft 5. The two are placed inside the cylinder 6, and the lower flange is sleeved on the short axis of the crankshaft 5. The upper flange and the lower flange are respectively arranged on both sides of the cylinder 6, and together with the inner circumference of the cylinder 6 and the outer circumference of the roller 8, a compression space is formed; the motor rotor drives the crankshaft 5 and the roller 8, and cooperates with the cylinder 6 and the vane 7 to perform the suction compression work of the refrigerant. The crankshaft 5 of the present application rotates at high speed under the constraint of the upper flange bearing. The unbalanced force generated by the rotor assembly causes the long axis of the crankshaft 5 to produce a certain degree of deflection and bend. The upper flange bearing constrains the crankshaft 5, which will generate contact stress concentration between the upper flange bearing and the crankshaft 5. The flange includes a flange neck 11, flexible through-holes, and a flange end 12. The flange neck 11 has radially evenly distributed flexible through-holes 22. The upper end of the outer circumferential surface of the flange end 12 has a second threaded structure. The inner surface of the second opening is provided with a first threaded structure, which is threadedly connected to the second threaded structure.

[0042] Furthermore, a flexible structure is provided on the flange neck 11, which effectively reduces the radial deformation of the flange, thereby reducing the radial design clearance between the crankshaft 5 and the upper flange bearing, and promoting the formation of an oil film between the crankshaft 5 and the bearing.

[0043] Furthermore, the flexible structure is a through hole 4, and the upper flange deforms. The hole has lower rigidity than other parts of the upper flange and is more prone to deformation. Then, when the crankshaft 5 comes into contact with the bearing, the flexible structure with lower rigidity deforms first, achieving elastic deformation between the crankshaft 5 and the bearing, increasing the elastic deformation between the bearing and the crankshaft 5, making the contact surface between the crankshaft 5 and the bearing more fitted, and changing the point contact to surface contact, thereby reducing the impact of the deformation of the upper flange on the crankshaft 5 and the contact stress between the two. Therefore, the flexible deformation of the through hole 4 can effectively reduce the impact of the deformation of the upper flange bearing on the crankshaft 5, thereby reducing the contact stress between the crankshaft 5 and the upper flange bearing. At the same time, the through hole 4 reduces the contact area between the upper flange and the crankshaft 5, further reducing the wear between the crankshaft 5 and the bearing, and reducing friction loss. It can also reduce the mass of the upper flange, thereby reducing the mass of the compressor as a whole, effectively reducing the vibration of the compressor, and reducing costs.

[0044] Furthermore, the number of the through holes 4 is set to be multiple; and the multiple through holes 4 are evenly arranged on the flange neck 11 .

[0045] Furthermore, the shell includes a cylindrical structure 23; the first end of the cylindrical structure 23 is a second opening 22; the second end of the cylindrical structure 23 is provided with a first end face 21, and the first opening 211 is provided on the first end face 21; a second reinforcement portion is provided at the connection position between the first end face 21 and the cylindrical structure 23; the cylindrical structure 23 and the first end face 21 are connected by a chamfer to form a second reinforcement portion. The large radius and thickness dimensions and high overall height of the chamfer can effectively improve the reliability and fatigue resistance of the muffler itself.

[0046] Furthermore, the first end of the flange neck 11 is connected to the flange end 12; the second end of the flange neck 11 is away from the flange end 12; the end surface of the annular reinforcement portion away from the flange end 12 corresponds to the position of the second end of the flange neck 11, and the silencer has a larger silencer chamber volume, which can effectively increase the silencer effect, which is beneficial to improving reliability and reducing noise.

[0047] Muffler 2 includes a T-shaped upper structure, a central muffler cavity, and an exhaust port 24. The muffler 2 and flange 1 enclose the central muffler cavity. Compared to conventional compressor mufflers 2, this design has the following features: the inner diameter of the T-shaped upper structure matches the outer diameter of the flange neck 11 of the upper flange. The inner circumference of the lower structure features a first threaded structure 221, which is assembled and fixed by threading with the upper flange bearing chassis. The central muffler cavity has a larger volume.

[0048] When the motor rotor drives the crankshaft 5 to rotate at high speed, the upper and lower flanges constrain the axial displacement of the crankshaft 5, while the flange neck 11 of the upper flange constrains the radial displacement of the crankshaft 5. The through hole 4 of the upper flange undergoes flexible deformation to increase the elastic deformation between the crankshaft 5 and the upper flange bearing. The muffler 2 is sleeved onto the upper flange, with the upper "T"-shaped structure having a clearance fit with the flange neck 11 of the upper flange. The lower structure is threadedly engaged with the flange end 12 of the upper flange, allowing the muffler 2 to be assembled onto the upper flange. The upper "T"-shaped structure reinforces the flange neck 11 of the upper flange, while a central muffler cavity is formed between the muffler 2 and the upper flange to reduce exhaust noise. The motor rotor drives the crankshaft 5 to rotate at high speed, the crankshaft 5 bends, and the crankshaft 5 contacts the flange neck 11 of the upper flange. The through hole 4 of the flange neck 11 of the upper flange produces elastic deformation, which increases the elastic deformation between the crankshaft 5 and the upper flange and reduces the contact stress concentration between the crankshaft 5 and the upper flange bearing. At the same time, the muffler 2 is assembled on the upper flange by relying on the first threaded structure 221 of the muffler 2 to cooperate with the second threaded structure 121 on the outer circumference of the flange end 12 of the upper flange, thereby avoiding the deformation caused by the muffler 2 squeezing the upper flange end face when assembling the muffler 2 with conventional screws. The "T"-shaped structure at the upper end of the muffler 2 is loosely matched with the flange neck 11 of the upper flange, which strengthens the fixation of the flange neck 11 of the upper flange, thereby increasing the deformation resistance of the upper flange, further reducing the contact stress concentration between the crankshaft 5 and the upper flange bearing, and thereby reducing friction loss and noise. On the other hand, an intermediate silencer cavity is formed between the muffler 2 and the upper flange. When the refrigerant gas in the cylinder 6 is discharged from the exhaust hole 24 of the upper flange, it enters the intermediate silencer cavity surrounded by the muffler 2 and the upper flange. After passing through the intermediate silencer cavity, the noise level of the refrigerant gas is reduced, and then it is discharged from the exhaust hole 24 of the muffler 2, completing the exhaust process of the compressor.
