In order to realize the connection between the crankshaft 30 and the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20, a partition 12 is provided between the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20, and a central cavity 12a is provided on the partition 12. The central cavity 12a is suitable for the crankshaft 30 to pass through, so as to realize the assembly of the crankshaft 30 with the first cylinder 10, the partition 12 and the second cylinder 20.

[0034] The piston includes a first piston 15 and a second piston 25. The first eccentric portion 30A is fitted in the first piston 15 to drive the first piston 15 to rotate eccentrically in the first cylinder chamber 10A. The second eccentric portion 30B is fitted in the second piston 25 to drive the second piston 25 to rotate eccentrically in the second cylinder chamber 20B. The first piston 15 is provided with a first annular groove 15e on at least one of the two end surfaces in the axial direction of the crankshaft 30. The second piston 25 is provided with a second annular groove 25e on at least one of the two end surfaces in the axial direction of the crankshaft 30. The first sealing ring 18 is arranged in the first annular groove 15e, and the second sealing ring 18a is arranged in the second annular groove 25e.

[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the first eccentric portion 30A is disposed in the first piston 1512 and connected to the inner circumference of the first piston 1512, and the second eccentric portion 30B is disposed in the second piston 2522 and connected to the inner circumference of the second piston 2522. A first annular groove 15e is provided on the upper end surface and the lower end surface of the first piston 15, and a second annular groove 25e is provided on the upper end surface and the lower end surface of the second piston 25.

[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, the upper end face and the lower end face of the first piston 15 are both fitted with the end faces of other structural parts to form sliding surfaces 15c at the upper and lower ends of the first piston 15, and the first sealing ring 18 disposed in the first annular groove 15e can fit with the end face of the structural part that matches the first piston 15 to improve the sealing performance of the sliding surface 15c. For example, the lower end face of the first piston 15 fits with the upper end face of the partition 12, and a first annular groove 15e is formed on the lower end face of the first piston 15, and the lower end face of the first sealing ring 18 disposed in the first annular groove 15e fits with the upper end face of the partition 12.

[0037] The upper end surface and the lower end surface of the second piston 25 are also fitted with the end surfaces of other structural parts to form sliding surfaces 15c at the upper and lower ends of the second piston 25. The second sealing ring 18a disposed in the second annular groove 25e can fit with the end surface of the mechanism matched with the second piston 25 to improve the sealing performance of the sliding surface 15c. For example, the upper end surface of the second piston 25 fits with the lower end surface of the partition 12, the upper end surface of the second piston 25 has a second annular groove 25e, and the upper end surface of the second sealing ring 18a disposed in the second annular groove 25e fits with the lower end surface of the partition 12.

[0038] The sliding vane includes a first sliding vane 13 and a second sliding vane 23. The first sliding vane 13 can reciprocate in the first sliding vane groove 13a, and the front end of the first sliding vane 13 can abut against the outer peripheral surface of the first piston 15. The second sliding vane 23 can reciprocate in the second sliding vane groove, and the front end of the second sliding vane 23 can abut against the outer peripheral surface of the second piston 25.

[0039] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the first sliding plate groove 13a extends in the radial direction of the housing 2, and the first sliding plate 13 is away from the end of the first piston 15 (such as Figure 2 The outer end of the first sliding plate 13 in the middle) is received in the first sliding plate groove 13a, and the end of the first sliding plate 13 close to the first piston 15 (such as Figure 2 The inner end of the first sliding plate 13 abuts against the outer peripheral surface of the first piston 15, and a sliding space is provided between the outer end of the first sliding plate 13 and the bottom wall of the first sliding plate groove 13a, so that the first sliding plate 13 can reciprocate in the first sliding plate groove 13a.

[0040] The second sliding plate groove (not shown) extends in the radial direction of the housing 2, and the second sliding plate 23 is away from the end of the second piston 25 (such as Figure 2 The outer end of the second sliding plate 23 in the middle) is received in the second sliding plate groove, and the end of the second sliding plate 23 close to the second piston 25 (such as Figure 2 The inner end of the second sliding plate 23 abuts against the outer circumferential surface of the second piston 25, and a sliding space is provided between the outer end of the second sliding plate 23 and the bottom wall of the second sliding plate groove, so that the second sliding plate 23 can reciprocate in the second sliding plate groove.

[0041] According to the rotary compressor of the embodiment of the present invention, a first annular groove is provided on at least one of the two end faces of the first piston on the axial direction of the crankshaft, a second annular groove is provided on at least one of the two end faces of the second piston on the axial direction of the crankshaft, and a first sealing ring is provided in the first annular groove, and a second sealing ring is provided in the second annular groove. The sealing ring can be used to improve the sealing effect between the end face of the piston and the end face of a structural member (such as a partition) that cooperates with it, reduce the amount of high-pressure gas leaking from the end face of the piston to the compression chamber, avoid a reduction in refrigeration capacity, and improve compression reliability.

[0042] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the compression assembly 5 also includes a first bearing 26 and a second bearing 28. The first bearing 26 is arranged on a side of the first cylinder 10 away from the second cylinder 20, and the second bearing 28 is arranged on a side of the second cylinder 20 away from the first cylinder 10. The crankshaft 30 is rotatably supported by the first bearing 26 and the second bearing 28.

[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first bearing 26 and the second bearing 28 are both sleeved on the crankshaft 30, the first bearing 26 is connected to the upper surface of the first cylinder 10 to seal the compression chamber of the first cylinder 10, and the second bearing 28 is connected to the lower surface of the second cylinder 20 to seal the compression chamber of the second cylinder 20.

[0044] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, a first annular groove 15 e is formed on an end surface of the first piston 15 adjacent to the first bearing 26 . A first sealing ring 18 is formed in the first annular groove 15 e . The first sealing ring 18 contacts the first bearing 26 and is slidable relative to the first bearing 26 .

[0045] like Figure 2 As shown, the upper end surface of the first piston 15 is provided with a first annular groove 15e, and the upper end surface of the first sealing ring 18 provided in the first annular groove 15e contacts the lower end surface of the first bearing 26. It can be understood that the first piston 15 can slide along the lower end surface of the first bearing 26 relative to the first bearing 26, and during this process, the first sealing ring 18 slides with the first piston 15 and always keeps in contact with the lower end surface of the first bearing 26, so as to reduce the leakage of the high-pressure gas in the first piston 15 during the movement of the first piston 15.

[0046] A second annular groove 25 e is formed on one end surface of the second piston 25 adjacent to the second bearing 28 . A second sealing ring 18 a is disposed in the second annular groove 25 e . The second sealing ring 18 a contacts the second bearing 28 and is slidable relative to the second bearing 28 .

[0047] like Figure 2 As shown, the lower end surface of the second piston 25 is provided with a second annular groove 25e, and the lower end surface of the second sealing ring 18a provided in the second annular groove 25e is in contact with the upper end surface of the second bearing 28. It can be understood that the second piston 25 can slide along the upper end surface of the second bearing 28 relative to the second bearing 28. During this process, the second sealing ring 18a slides with the second piston 25 and always keeps in contact with the upper end surface of the second bearing 28, thereby reducing the leakage of high-pressure gas in the second piston 25 during the movement of the second piston 25.

[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, each of the first piston 15 and the second piston 25 includes a first section and a second section arranged opposite to each other in the axial direction of the crankshaft 30 and a middle section located between the first section and the second section, the inner diameter of the middle section is smaller than the inner diameter of the first section, and the inner diameter of the middle section is smaller than the inner diameter of the second section.

[0049] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, taking the first piston 15 as an example, the first section is located above the middle section, and the second section is located below the middle section. The middle section has a first through hole 15b for the crankshaft 30 to pass through, and the first section and the second section both have a second through hole 15d for the crankshaft 30 to pass through, and the inner diameter of the middle section (the inner diameter D2 of the first through hole 15b) is smaller than the inner diameter of the first section or the second section (the inner diameter D3 of the second through hole 15d).

[0050] Furthermore, if Figure 2 As shown, the diameter of the central cavity 12 a is greater than or equal to the inner diameter of the middle section, thereby ensuring that the crankshaft 30 can pass through the central cavity 12 a to achieve the connection between the second cylinder 20 and the crankshaft 30 .

[0051] In addition, the diameter of the central cavity 12a is smaller than the inner diameter of the first section or the second section. Figure 2 As shown, taking the first piston 15 as an example, the second through hole 15d is connected to the central cavity 12a, and the lower end surface of the second section is in contact with the upper end surface of the partition 12. Therefore, by setting the inner diameter D3 of the second through hole to be larger than the diameter D1 of the central cavity, when the first piston moves in a large range in the radial direction of the crankshaft, it is possible to avoid the outer wall of the first piston and the partition from generating a misalignment gap in the radial direction of the crankshaft, thereby preventing the leakage of high-pressure gas in the first piston.

[0052] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, there is a gap between the first sealing ring 18 and the bottom surface of the first annular groove 15e, and there is a gap between the second sealing ring 18a and the second annular groove 25e. Therefore, the pressure difference between the first cylinder chamber or the second cylinder chamber and the gap can press the first sealing ring and the second sealing ring, so that when the first piston and the second piston move at high speed, the first sealing ring can always fit with the partition and the first bearing, and the second sealing ring can always fit with the partition and the second bearing, so as to minimize the sliding gap, thereby improving the reliability of the first sealing ring and the second sealing ring, and preventing the high-pressure gas in the piston from leaking into the compression chamber.

[0053] Furthermore, the first sealing ring 18 is an elastic member, and / or the second sealing ring 18a is an elastic member. In other words, one of the first sealing ring 18 and the second sealing ring 18a is an elastic member, or both of the first sealing ring 18 and the second sealing ring 18a are elastic members. Thus, the first sealing ring and / or the second sealing ring have elastic deformation capability, so that when the first piston and / or the second piston move at high speed, the first sealing ring and / or the second sealing ring can ensure the sealing between the first piston and / or the second piston and other structural members (such as the first bearing, the second bearing and the partition). For example, when the partition 12 vibrates up and down, the first sealing ring 18 and the second sealing ring 18a will not separate from the surface of the partition 12 under the action of their elastic force.

[0054] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the first annular groove 15e is spaced apart from the central cavity 12a in the radial direction of the central cavity 12a, and the second annular groove 25e is spaced apart from the central cavity 12a in the radial direction of the central cavity 12a. Thus, neither the first annular groove nor the second annular groove is connected to the central cavity, thereby preventing the high-pressure gas in the central cavity from leaking into the compression cavity through the first annular groove or the second annular groove, and the sealing ring disposed in the annular groove does not contact the outer periphery of the central cavity, thereby preventing the sealing ring from being damaged.

[0055] In some embodiments, one of the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 can be switched between a cylinder deactivation state and a cylinder deactivation release state to control the capacity of the compression assembly 5. In other words, the first cylinder 10 and the second cylinder 20 can work at the same time, or one cylinder can work while the other cylinder does not work, so as to reasonably save power and maintain environmental comfort.

[0056] According to another aspect of the present invention, a refrigeration cycle system includes a compressor, a condenser 50, an expansion valve 51, an evaporator 52, and a liquid storage tank 40. The compressor is a rotary compressor 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0057] like Figure 1As shown, an exhaust pipe 3 is provided on the top of the casing 2, a first exhaust hole 26a which can be opened and closed by a first exhaust valve is provided on the first bearing 26, and a second exhaust hole 28b which can be opened and closed by a second exhaust valve is provided on the second bearing 28. The high-pressure gas is suitable for being discharged from the exhaust pipe 3 into the condenser 50 and becoming a liquid refrigerant in the condenser 50. The low-pressure refrigerant passing through the expansion valve 51 becomes a low-pressure gas in the evaporator 52 and flows into the liquid reservoir 40. The low-pressure gas sucked in from the first intake pipe connected to the liquid reservoir 40 is compressed into a high-pressure gas in the first cylinder 10, and the low-pressure gas sucked in from the second intake pipe 6b connected to the liquid reservoir 40 is compressed into a high-pressure gas in the second cylinder 20. The high-pressure gas discharged through the first exhaust hole 26a opened in the first bearing 26 and the second row of holes opened in the second bearing 28 is discharged to the interior of the casing 2 through the first muffler 27 and the second muffler 29.
