Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of compressors, and more specifically, to a liquid separation structure and a compressor. Background Technology
[0002] The compressor distributor is installed between the system evaporator and the compressor body. Its main function in the compressor is to separate excess liquid refrigerant from the refrigeration system, preventing liquid from entering the compressor and causing liquid slugging. Simultaneously, the refrigerant gas also contains compressor lubricating oil. The oil-gas-liquid mixture is separated by the distributor, allowing the lubricating oil to flow back to the pump body through a small hole at the bottom of the distributor's steel pipe, preventing lubricating oil loss and subsequent wear and tear on the compressor pump body.
[0003] However, in existing separators, after gas is drawn in through the straight pipe, it is directly sprayed onto the filter assembly. Because the filter assembly is close to the straight pipe, the oil brought back by the system is also directly sprayed onto the filter assembly. This causes some filter screen holes to become blocked momentarily during the air intake process, reducing the air intake flow area and generating significant intake resistance. Furthermore, this structure leads to incomplete gas-liquid separation, creating a risk of liquid hammer. Summary of the Invention

[0031] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0032] See Figures 1 to 10 The liquid-distributing structure of this embodiment includes: a cylinder 1, which has a receiving cavity 11, and an inlet pipe 2 and an outlet pipe 3 communicating with the receiving cavity 11; a filter assembly 4, located inside the receiving cavity 11, which is used to filter the gas inside the receiving cavity 11; and a liquid-distributing component 5, rotatably disposed inside the receiving cavity 11, which has a flow port 51 so that the airflow entering from the inlet pipe 2 passes through the flow port 51 and reaches the filter assembly 4. With the above arrangement, the liquid-distributing component 5 is located inside the cylinder 1 of the compressor's liquid-distributing structure and is installed between the liquid distributor inlet pipe 2 and the filter assembly 4. When low-pressure gas enters the compressor from the evaporator, the gas first enters the liquid-distributing structure. On the one hand, the oil-gas-liquid mixture is sprayed onto the rotating liquid-distributing component 5, which separates a portion of the liquid refrigerant or refrigeration oil from the gas. On the other hand, as the gas passes through the flow port 51 on the liquid separator 5, it can change the original gas flow direction, so that the oil and gas can be separated better, the amount of oil adsorbed on the filter screen pores can be reduced, the filter screen assembly 4 can be prevented from clogging, the suction resistance of the liquid separator structure can be reduced, and the problem of easy clogging of the filter screen of the liquid separator of the compressor in the prior art can be solved.
[0033] In some embodiments, the liquid separation component 5 can be manufactured by forming methods such as stamping, machining, welding, riveting, and bonding.

[0035] In this embodiment, the liquid separating component 5 is connected to the inner diameter of the upper cylinder 1 by a bearing component 6. The bearing component 6 is driven to rotate by gas force, and the bearing component 6 drives the liquid separating component 5 to rotate.

[0038] With the above setup, the installation position of the liquid separator 5 is related to the oil-gas-liquid separation effect. If it is closer to the straight pipe inlet pipe 2 of the liquid separator, the liquid separation effect is better, but the suction resistance is increased, which affects the energy efficiency.
[0039] In the liquid separation structure of this embodiment, the liquid separation component 5 includes a connecting ring 501, which is connected to the inner ring of the bearing component 6; a liquid separation plate 502, which is located inside the connecting ring 501, and the extension direction of the liquid separation plate 502 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the air inlet pipe 2; the liquid separation plate 502 is connected to the connecting ring 501, and the flow port 51 is provided on the liquid separation plate 502.

[0044] In the liquid-dispensing structure of this embodiment, the liquid-dispensing component 5 includes a connecting ring 503, and a circular through hole is provided inside the connecting ring 503. The axis of the circular through hole coincides with the rotation axis of the liquid-dispensing component 5. A liquid-dispensing groove 56 is provided between the connecting ring 503 and the connecting ring 501. A protrusion 55 is located in the liquid-dispensing groove 56. And / or, the protrusion 55 includes a first protrusion 551 and a second protrusion 552. The first protrusion 551 is located on the side of the liquid-dispensing plate 502 near the air inlet pipe 2, and the second protrusion 552 is located on the side of the liquid-dispensing plate 502 away from the air inlet pipe 2. A flow port 51 is located between the first protrusion 551 and the second protrusion 552. And / or, at least a portion of the outer surface of the protrusion 55 is an arc-shaped surface.
[0045] In the liquid separation structure of this embodiment, there are at least two flow ports 51, which are arranged at intervals; and / or, there are at least two flow ports 51, which are arranged in a centrally symmetrical manner with the rotation axis of the liquid separation component 5 as the center of symmetry; and / or, the liquid separation component 5 is sleeved on the air inlet pipe 2, the liquid separation component 5 is a ring structure, the outer diameter of the liquid separation component 5 is d, and the receiving cavity 11 is a cylindrical cavity with an outer diameter of D; wherein, Dd≥2mm.
[0046] Specifically, the liquid separating component 5 has vent holes on its plane, with a maximum of 3 vent holes. The flow port 51 can be circular, square, or irregularly shaped. The total area S of the flow ports 51 is not less than the total area of the openings on the filter screen support.
[0047] In this embodiment, the liquid separation structure further includes: a partition 7 disposed within the receiving cavity 11, the partition 7 being connected to the cylinder 1; a connecting pipe 8 passing through the partition 7, the connecting pipe 8 being located at the end of the filter assembly 4 furthest from the liquid separation component 5, one end of the connecting pipe 8 having an air inlet opposite to the filter assembly 4, and the other end of the connecting pipe 8 communicating with the air outlet pipe 3; the partition 7 and the connecting pipe 8 forming a receiving tank 9. With the above arrangement, the receiving tank 9 can be used to store the separated oil.
[0048] The compressor in this embodiment includes a liquid distribution structure, which is the liquid distribution structure described above.
[0049] In this embodiment, the liquid-distributing component 5 of the liquid-distributing structure is installed between the air inlet pipe 2 and the filter screen assembly 4 of the cylinder 1. The liquid-distributing structure includes a bearing component 6 and at least one liquid-distributing component 5. The outer ring of the bearing component 6 is connected to the inner diameter of the liquid distributor cylinder 1, and the inner ring of the bearing component 6 is connected to the liquid-distributing component 5; or, the inner ring of the bearing component 6 is connected to the outer diameter of the air inlet pipe 2, and the outer ring of the bearing component 6 is connected to the liquid-distributing component 5.
[0050] When low-pressure gas enters the compressor from the evaporator, it first enters the liquid-liquid separator. On one hand, the oil-gas-liquid mixture is sprayed onto the rotating liquid-liquid separator 5, separating some of the liquid refrigerant or refrigeration oil from the gas. On the other hand, the gas force drives the bearing component 6 to rotate, which in turn drives the liquid-liquid separator 5 to rotate, generating centrifugal force. This accelerates oil-gas-liquid separation and changes the refrigerant flow direction, preventing unvaporized refrigerant liquid from entering the compressor's suction chamber, avoiding liquid slugging, and improving compressor reliability. Simultaneously, it reduces the amount of oil adsorbed on the filter screen, lowering suction resistance and improving compressor efficiency. This structure accelerates oil-gas separation, reduces the oil content in the refrigerant, increases the compressor's cooling capacity, and improves lubrication.
[0051] Example 1:
[0052] See Figure 3 , Figure 4 In this embodiment, the liquid distribution plate 502 can be welded onto the connecting ring 501 or integrally stamped. The liquid distribution plate 502 has two or more blade portions 54 in the middle. The angle between the blades and the plate is β, where 0° < β < 90°. The tilting direction can be left or right, but the tilting direction of the blade portions 54 on the same liquid distribution component 5 should be consistent.

The liquid distribution plate 502 has two or more blade portions 54 in the middle. The blade portions 54 are installed at an angle β with the liquid distribution plate 502, where 0° < β < 90°.

[0057] Example 4:
[0058] The separator plate 502 has more than three flow ports 51. Each flow port 51 is composed of two corresponding semi-circular holes. In this way, when the airflow passes through the flow port 51, the lateral area is increased, the direction of refrigerant flow is changed, and the oil-spinning effect is accelerated.
[0059] Example 5: Based on the structure of Example 3, the number of blade sections 54 can be increased to improve the liquid separation effect.
[0060] Example 6: The number of blade sections 54 can be increased in the structure of Example 4 to improve the liquid separation effect.
