Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of compressors, and in particular to a compressor and an air conditioner. Background Art
[0002] Scroll compressors are widely used in refrigeration, air conditioning, heat pumps and other fields due to their high efficiency, small size, light weight and stable operation. Generally speaking, a scroll compressor consists of a closed housing, a fixed scroll, a movable scroll, a bracket, a crankshaft, an anti-rotation mechanism oil supply device and a motor. The profiles of the movable and fixed scrolls are both spiral. The movable scroll is eccentric to the fixed scroll and installed 180° apart, so multiple crescent-shaped spaces are formed between the movable and fixed scrolls. When the movable scroll rotates with the center of the fixed scroll as the center and rotates at a certain rotation radius without self-rotation, the outer crescent-shaped space will continue to move toward the center. At this time, the refrigerant is gradually pushed to the center space, and its volume continues to shrink while the pressure continues to increase until it is connected to the central exhaust hole. The high-pressure refrigerant is discharged from the pump body to complete the compression process.
[0003] The oil circuit design of scroll compressor is a crucial system engineering, involving transmission parts, friction pairs, oil supply, oil return and other issues. Conventional scroll compressors adopt the arrangement of upper pump body and lower motor. There are oil holes in the crankshaft. The oil flows from the oil holes to each friction pair through pressure difference and positive displacement oil pump. Corresponding oil supply and oil return circuits are set at the friction pair positions such as bearings, pump bodies, and anti-rotation mechanisms to make the lubricating oil circulate and the compressor can work normally.
[0004] At the same time, the lubrication of the pump end face has become a problem that all scroll manufacturers have focused on. The end faces of the moving and stationary scroll plates are the friction pairs with the largest area and the most complex forces in the compressor. They need to be continuously supplied with lubricating oil to ensure the normal operation of the pump body, which requires the opening of a large number of oil circuits, but a large number of oil circuits will cause sealing problems. Therefore, various manufacturers provide various pump end face lubrication solutions.
[0005] Since the scroll compressor in the prior art has technical problems such as wear of the pump end surface due to lack of oil and inability to provide effective lubrication, the present invention studies and designs a compressor and an air conditioner. Summary of the invention

[0078] Figure 1 The middle arrow indicates the flow direction of the lubricating oil: all the lubricating oil flows up through the oil hole of the crankshaft to the oil pool composed of the upper bracket and the movable scroll sliding bearing, part of the lubricating oil flows to the area where the cross slip ring is located through the movable scroll sealing strip, and lubricates the cross slip ring and the end faces 3-4 of the movable and static scrolls, part of the lubricating oil flows through the gap between the upper bracket sliding bearing and the crankshaft to the first oil storage tank 8-1, the oil storage tank is connected to the first oil tank 8-2, and this part of the lubricating oil is supplied to the end faces of the movable and static scrolls; part of the lubricating oil flows back to the compressor through the eighth oil tank 8-5 and enters the lower oil pool of the compressor.
[0079] Figure 2 The schematic diagram of the internal pressure of the compressor in the present invention is shown. The area where the brick-shaped section line is located is the low-pressure area, in which the refrigerant is at the suction pressure, including the inside of the suction pipe and the suction cavity composed of the moving and static scrolls; the area where the grass-shaped section line is located is the medium-pressure area, in which the refrigerant pressure is greater than the suction pressure and less than the exhaust pressure, including the compression cavity composed of the moving and static scrolls, the area where the cross slip ring is located, and the static scroll oil supply passage. The source of the medium pressure is the migration of the refrigerant in the compression cavity of the moving and static scrolls through the medium-pressure hole structure of the moving and static scrolls; the area where the dot-shaped section line is located is the high-pressure area, in which the refrigerant is at the exhaust pressure, including all parts of the compressor except the low-pressure area and the medium-pressure area. The refrigerant pressure in the high-pressure area is greater than the refrigerant pressure in the medium-pressure area, and the pressure difference causes the lubricating oil to migrate through the moving scroll seal strip and the upper bracket oil supply passage, thereby achieving the purpose of guiding oil through the upper bracket oil supply passage and stably lubricating the end face of the pump body in the patent.
[0080] The oil reservoir of the upper bracket is located at the lower part of the upper bracket sliding bearing, and plays the role of storing lubricating oil. The oil reservoir is connected to the first oil groove 8-2. The throttle pin 11 is located in the third oil groove 8-4, and plays the role of isolating pressure to prevent air from flowing between the second oil groove 8-3 and the third oil groove 8-4. The first sealing pin 10-1 and the second sealing pin 10-2 play a sealing role. This is because the bracket has to be opened when the oil supply passage of the upper bracket is processed. If it is not sealed, oil cannot be supplied. Among them, if the first oil groove 8-2 has other solutions to block the passage, such as Example 2 and Example 3, the first sealing pin 10-1 can be cancelled; the third oil groove 8-4 and the shell in the compressor have an interference fit, and the second sealing pin 10-2 can be cancelled. The oil reservoir of the upper bracket is lower than the oil return passage of the upper bracket to ensure that a part of the lubricating oil is already in the oil reservoir before the compressor returns oil.
[0081] The fourth oil groove 3-1 of the fixed scroll is connected to the oil supply passage 3 of the upper bracket, the sixth oil groove 3-3 of the fixed scroll is connected to the end surface 3-4 of the fixed scroll, and the fifth oil groove 3-2 of the fixed scroll serves to connect the fourth oil groove 3-1 and the sixth oil groove 3-3. The third sealing pin 10-3 is located in the fifth oil groove 3-2. If the fixed scroll is in interference connection with the compressor upper shell 2 or the compressor middle shell 3, the third sealing pin 10-3 can be eliminated.
[0082] Through the effect of pressure difference, the lubricating oil in the oil storage tank of the upper bracket is stably and continuously supplied to the end faces of the moving and stationary scroll plates, forming local oil pressure between the pump bodies, which can improve the pump body clearance, form a stable oil film, reduce pump body contact wear, and reduce friction power consumption; the pump body friction pair is cooled and lubricated by the lubricating oil, which improves the operational reliability of the pump body and the reliability of the compressor; the upper bracket forms a separate oil storage tank, which can store a certain amount of lubricating oil, reduce the oil disturbance power consumption of the lower part of the compressor, and ensure stable oil supply to the end face of the pump body.
[0083] Embodiment 2:
[0084] like Figure 5 As shown, an oil reservoir can be optionally provided at the lower end of the sliding bearing to meet the needs of the occasion, and the first sealing pin 10-1 can be eliminated.
[0085] Embodiment 3:
[0086] like Figure 6 As shown, in a vertical scroll compressor using a rolling bearing, an oil supply passage can be opened in the bearing chamber composed of the upper bracket and the rolling bearing support plate 21, and the lubricating oil flows into the oil reservoir through the gap between the ball and the retaining ring of the rolling bearing (first bearing 7), thereby achieving the purpose of oil supply. In this structure, the oil reservoir is still located below the bearing and lower than the oil return passage of the upper bracket. The upper bracket still has three oil supply passages, and the first sealing pin 10-1 can be eliminated.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present disclosure shall be included in the protection scope of the present disclosure. The above is only a preferred implementation of the present disclosure.
