Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of scroll compressors, and more specifically to an oil-gas cavity housing of a scroll compressor. Background Art

[0002] In the compressor market, scroll compressors are gradually replacing traditional piston and rotary vane compressors. They are characterized by smooth operation, high volumetric efficiency, high mechanical efficiency, long life, and low failure rate, and are widely used in homes, offices, vehicles, and other environments. The core component of a scroll compressor is a pair of intermeshing scrolls, one of which is a moving scroll and the other is a stationary scroll. The stationary scroll, as a fixed part, remains stationary during the operation of the compressor, while the moving scroll rotates very precisely relative to the stationary scroll to achieve gas compression. Currently, the main units of oil-injected scroll compressors on the market are all independently designed. To assemble a complete compressor, it is necessary to assemble multiple other components such as oil and gas tanks, combination valves, and oil guide pipes. There are many pipelines, a complex structure, a large space occupation, and high production costs. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an oil-gas chamber housing of a scroll compressor, which has a compact and simple structure and can greatly reduce the assembly parts and connecting pipelines of the entire compressor.

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is to provide an oil-gas chamber housing of a scroll compressor, on which a movable scroll mounting portion, an oil-gas separation chamber, an oil-gas separation core mounting hole, an oil return inlet, an oil return outlet and an exhaust port are provided. The movable scroll mounting portion is used to install the movable scroll, the oil-gas separation core mounting hole is used to install the oil-gas separation core and is connected with the oil-gas separation chamber, the oil return outlet and the exhaust port are both connected with the oil-gas separation core mounting hole, the oil return outlet is used to guide out the oil separated by the oil-gas separation core, the exhaust port is used to discharge the gas separated by the oil-gas separation core, and the oil return inlet is connected with the movable scroll mounting portion.

[0005] Compared with the prior art, the oil-gas chamber shell of the scroll compressor of the present invention has the following advantages: when the scroll compressor is working, the oil-gas mixture enters the oil-gas separation chamber for preliminary oil-gas separation. After the preliminary separation, a large number of oil droplets condense into oil liquid and remain in the oil-gas separation chamber, and the gas is discharged from the oil-gas separation chamber through the oil-gas separation core mounting hole. At this time, the gas still contains some oil droplets and is further separated from the oil-gas by the oil-gas separation core. The separated oil liquid is discharged through the oil return outlet, and the gas is discharged through the exhaust port; the oil return outlet can be connected to the oil return inlet, and the oil discharged from the oil return outlet can be directly introduced into the engine In the scroll mounting part, the movable scroll and its bearings are lubricated and cooled. The oil discharged from the return oil outlet can also be connected to an external cooler for cooling, and the cooled oil is then introduced into the movable scroll mounting part through the return oil inlet to lubricate and cool the movable scroll and its bearings. Since the movable scroll mounting part, the oil-gas separation chamber, the oil-gas separation core mounting hole, the return oil inlet, the return oil outlet and the exhaust port are all arranged on the oil-gas chamber housing, the external oil and gas tank, combination valve, oil guide pipe and other multiple components are avoided, so that the static disk casing structure of the scroll compressor is small and simple, which greatly reduces the assembly parts and connecting pipelines of the entire compressor.

[0006] Preferably, the oil-gas separation core mounting hole includes an inner hole and an oil-gas through hole. The oil-gas through hole connects the oil-gas separation chamber with the inner hole, and the inner hole connects to both the oil return outlet and the exhaust port. This structure prevents the oil return outlet and the exhaust port from directly connecting to the oil-gas separation chamber, thereby improving the oil-gas separation performance of the oil-gas separation core.

[0007] Preferably, the exhaust port is communicated with the bottom of the inner hole, and the oil return outlet is communicated with the side of the inner hole. This structure is adapted to the structure of the oil-gas separation core to separate the oil and gas.

[0008] Preferably, the oil and gas through-holes surround the outer side of the inner hole. With this structure, oil and gas flow from the outer periphery of the inner hole to the center, improving the efficiency of oil and gas passage, while preventing oil and gas from concentrating on one side of the oil and gas separation core, so that the oil and gas separation core can be evenly utilized.

[0009] Preferably, at least one oil-gas separation baffle is provided within the oil-gas separation chamber. The oil-gas separation baffle divides the oil-gas separation chamber into several smaller chambers, with adjacent smaller chambers interconnected. This structure allows oil and gas to be separated multiple times within the smaller chambers, and allows oil droplets to fully condense on the oil-gas separation baffle, thereby improving the degree of oil-gas separation.

[0010] Preferably, the oil-gas separation core mounting hole is located at the top of the small oil-gas separation chamber, where the oil and gas finally enter. This structure allows the oil and gas to be fully separated in the oil-gas separation chamber before entering the oil-gas separation core mounting hole for further separation by the oil-gas separation core, reducing the workload of the oil-gas separation core.

[0011] Preferably, an anti-rotation component mounting portion is provided in the movable scroll mounting portion, and the anti-rotation component mounting portion is used to mount a component that prevents the movable scroll from rotating. This structure facilitates the installation of the movable scroll and the component that prevents the movable scroll from rotating.

[0012] Preferably, the anti-rotation member mounting portion is a cross ring mounting portion, and the cross ring mounting portion is used to mount a cross ring that prevents the movable scroll from rotating.

[0013] Preferably, an oil sight port is provided on the side wall of the oil-gas separation chamber, and the oil sight port is used to observe the oil level in the oil-gas separation chamber. With this structure, it is convenient to observe the oil level in the oil-gas separation chamber.

[0014] Preferably, an oil discharge pipe is provided at the bottom of the oil-gas separation chamber, and the oil discharge pipe is used to discharge the oil in the oil-gas separation chamber. With this structure, it is convenient to discharge or replace the oil in the oil-gas separation chamber. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the oil-gas chamber housing of the scroll compressor of the present invention is provided with a movable scroll mounting portion 2, which is a mounting hole for mounting the movable scroll, and a cross ring mounting portion 2-1 is provided at a position corresponding to the inner side of the oil-gas chamber housing of the movable scroll mounting portion 2, and the cross ring mounting portion 2-1 is used to install a cross ring for preventing the movable scroll from rotating; an oil-gas separation chamber 3 is provided on the outer side of the movable scroll mounting portion 2, and the oil-gas separation chamber 3 is located on the inner side of the oil-gas chamber housing, and a first oil-gas separation chamber is also provided in the oil-gas separation chamber 3. Oil droplets will fully condense on the baffle 11, the second oil-gas separation baffle 10, and the third oil-gas separation baffle 9. These baffles also divide the oil-gas separation chamber 3 into four smaller chambers. Adjacent smaller chambers are interconnected, allowing oil and gas to undergo four separations within these chambers, improving the degree of oil-gas separation. A stator housing mounting portion is provided on the outer end surface of the oil-gas separation chamber 3 for mounting the stator housing. Typically, the oil-gas chamber housing and the stator housing face each other and are bolted together.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown in the figure, an oil viewing port 7 is provided on the side wall of the oil-gas separation chamber 3 for observing the oil level in the oil-gas separation chamber 3; an oil unloading pipe 6 is provided at the bottom of the oil-gas separation chamber 3 for leading the oil in the oil-gas separation chamber 3.

[0027] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown in the figure, an oil-gas separation core mounting hole 8 is provided on the top of the small oil-gas separation chamber where the third oil-gas separation baffle 9 is located. The oil-gas separation core mounting hole 8 includes an inner hole and an oil-gas through hole 8-1.

[0028] like Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in , an oil return inlet 4 is provided on the top of the oil-gas chamber housing, and the oil return inlet 4 connects the movable scroll mounting part 2 with the outside world. The return oil outlet 12 can be connected to the oil return inlet 4, and the oil derived from the return oil outlet 12 can be directly introduced into the movable scroll mounting part to lubricate and cool the movable scroll and its bearings. The oil derived from the return oil outlet can also be connected to an external cooler for cooling, and the cooled oil can be then introduced into the movable scroll mounting part through the return oil inlet to lubricate and cool the movable scroll and its bearings.

[0029] Before the scroll compressor assembled by the oil-gas chamber shell of the scroll compressor of the present invention works, the return oil outlet 12 is connected to the return oil inlet 4, and the oil level in the oil-gas separation chamber 3 is observed through the oil sight port 7 to ensure that the oil inside the scroll compressor is within a normal range; after starting the scroll compressor, the oil-gas mixture enters the oil-gas separation chamber 3 for preliminary oil-gas separation. After the preliminary separation, a large number of oil droplets condense into oil liquid and remain in the oil-gas separation chamber 3, and the gas is discharged from the oil-gas separation chamber 3 through the oil-gas through hole 8-1. At this time, the gas still contains some oil droplets and is further separated by the oil-gas separation core. The oil separated by the oil-gas separation core is discharged through the return oil outlet 12 and introduced into the movable scroll mounting part through the return oil inlet 4 to lubricate and cool the movable scroll and its bearings. The gas separated by the oil-gas separation core is discharged through the exhaust port.
