Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of compressor exhaust pressure relief valves, and in particular to a filtering mechanism of a compressor exhaust pressure relief valve. Background Art

[0002] When the compressor is operating, the pressure relief valve is triggered when the exhaust pressure exceeds the allowable upper limit to avoid safety issues caused by abnormally high exhaust pressure. Exhaust pressure pulsations are generated during the refrigerant compression process. Due to the incompressibility of the liquid, the exhaust pulsation amplitude is greater when the liquid refrigerant is compressed, and it is easy for the pulsation peak to exceed the operating pressure of the pressure relief valve and trigger the pressure relief valve to operate. However, the effective value of the exhaust pressure at this time does not reach the operating pressure of the pressure relief valve, and the high pulsation peak only occurs at the moment of liquid compression. The normal pressure of gas compression will be restored after the compressor runs for a while. Therefore, the operation of the pressure relief valve at this time is considered to be a false operation and should be avoided.

[0003] At present, the upper limit of the exhaust pressure allowed by the compressor is lower than the lower limit of the pressure relief valve action pressure, and a certain margin is left between the two to avoid malfunction of the pressure relief valve caused by exhaust pulsation.

[0004] Especially when liquid refrigerant is compressed, the instantaneous pressure pulsation peak is relatively large, which may trigger the malfunction of the pressure relief valve. When the volume of the compressor discharge chamber is relatively small, the malfunction of the pressure relief valve is more likely to be triggered. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, an object of the present invention is to provide a filtering mechanism for a compressor exhaust pressure relief valve.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0007] A filter mechanism for a compressor exhaust pressure relief valve, comprising:

[0008] an exhaust high-pressure chamber and a pressure relief buffer chamber, wherein the exhaust high-pressure chamber and the pressure relief buffer chamber are connected through a capillary flow channel;

[0009] A static vortex, wherein the static vortex is provided with a static vortex exhaust device, and the static vortex exhaust device is connected to the exhaust high-pressure chamber;

[0010] a pressure relief valve, one end of which is in communication with the pressure relief buffer chamber, and the other end of which is in communication with the external space;

[0011] Wherein, the ratio of the volume of the pressure relief buffer chamber to the volume of the exhaust high-pressure chamber is not less than 0.01; the ratio of the cross-sectional area of ​​the capillary flow channel to the cross-sectional area of ​​the static vortex exhaust device of the static vortex is not greater than 0.2.

[0012] The filtering mechanism of the above-mentioned compressor exhaust pressure relief valve further includes: a top shell, the top shell and the static scroll together form an accommodating space, the exhaust high-pressure chamber and the pressure relief buffer chamber are both arranged in the accommodating space, the static scroll is a cover-like structure, the top shell is installed on the static scroll, and the pressure relief valve is arranged on the top shell.

[0013] The filtering mechanism of the compressor exhaust pressure relief valve mentioned above further includes: a partition, which is arranged in the shell, the side of the partition is connected to the inner surface of the shell, and the partition and a part of the shell together form a sealed oil pool.

[0014] The filtering mechanism of the above-mentioned compressor exhaust pressure relief valve further includes: an exhaust pipe, the exhaust pipe is arranged in the shell, one end of the exhaust pipe is connected to the exhaust high-pressure chamber, and the other end of the exhaust pipe is connected to the external space, and the exhaust high-pressure chamber is arranged on one side of the exhaust pipe.

[0015] The filter mechanism of the compressor exhaust pressure relief valve is characterized in that an angle is formed between the exhaust pipe and the capillary flow channel.

[0016] The filtering mechanism of the above-mentioned compressor exhaust pressure relief valve, wherein the static scroll exhaust device of the static scroll, the exhaust high-pressure chamber, the exhaust pipe and the external space are connected in sequence to form a first flow channel.

[0017] The filtering mechanism of the above-mentioned compressor exhaust pressure relief valve, wherein the static scroll exhaust device of the static scroll, the exhaust high-pressure chamber, the capillary flow channel, the pressure relief buffer chamber, the pressure relief valve and the external space are connected in sequence to form a second flow channel.

[0018] The filter mechanism of the above-mentioned compressor exhaust pressure relief valve, wherein the pressure relief buffer chamber is arranged on the other side of the exhaust pipe.

[0019] In the above-mentioned filter mechanism of the compressor exhaust pressure relief valve, the pressure relief buffer chamber is in the shape of a circular hole, and the pressure relief buffer chamber is opened on the top shell.

[0020] The filter mechanism of the compressor exhaust pressure relief valve mentioned above further includes: a first cavity, which is arranged on the other side of the exhaust pipe and is connected to the exhaust high-pressure cavity.

[0021] Due to the adoption of the above technology, the present invention has the following positive effects compared with the prior art:

[0022] (1) The present invention utilizes the existence of the capillary flow channel and the pressure relief buffer chamber to achieve a certain response delay. Since the pressure in the exhaust high-pressure chamber quickly returns to a normal level after reaching the peak, the pressure fluctuation inside the pressure relief buffer chamber is small and cannot reach the same peak pressure. At the same time, it also cannot reach the opening pressure of the pressure relief valve, thereby realizing the filtering function of the exhaust pressure relief valve.

[0023] (2) The present invention avoids malfunction of the pressure relief valve by setting an exhaust pressure filtering mechanism before the pressure relief valve, thereby effectively reducing the loss of refrigerant and lubricating oil in the air-conditioning system, helping to maintain the normal working environment of the compressor and improving operational reliability.
