Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention is used in the field of compressors, and in particular relates to a cylinder head assembly, a compressor and a refrigeration device. Background Art

[0002] Household refrigerator compressors usually include a movement and a housing. The movement consists of a motor component and a pump body. The pump body is equipped with a cylinder head component and a cylinder seat. The cylinder head component is usually square, and the parts mainly include: cylinder head, cylinder head gasket, intake silencer, valve component, cylinder head screw, exhaust silencer, etc., of which there are four cylinder head screws, which fix the valve component and other parts on the plate surface of the cylinder seat. Usually, the cylinder head is made of aluminum alloy, the exhaust silencer is made of gray iron or stainless steel, and the cylinder seat is made of gray cast iron, and their thermal conductivity coefficients are all very high.

[0003] The compressor of household refrigerators is mainly a reciprocating piston compressor. One of the characteristics of reciprocating compressors is that the compression ratio is very large, so the temperature of the refrigerant is very high after the cylinder is compressed. The high-temperature refrigerant gas converges to the top dead center of the cylinder bore of the cylinder seat, forming a strong heat conduction to the wall around the cylinder bore; when the pressure in the cylinder bore rises to a high enough level, the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas flows out from the exhaust hole of the valve plate, enters the internal volume of the aluminum cylinder head, and then enters the iron exhaust muffler. There is a strong heat conduction in the whole process. The heat is conducted to the space inside the compressor shell. After heat conduction and convection heat exchange, the harmful heat is absorbed by the refrigerant gas in the internal cavity of the shell, forming a strong overheating effect, which leads to an increase in the suction temperature of the compressor, forming harmful suction overheating, seriously affecting the suction efficiency of the compressor, and reducing the cooling capacity and performance coefficient of the compressor.

[0030] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 7 The embodiment of the present invention provides a cylinder head assembly, including a cylinder head 100 and a cylinder sleeve 200. The cylinder sleeve 200 is provided with a through cylinder hole 201, and the cylinder hole 201 is used to cooperate with the piston to realize the reciprocating compression of the refrigerant. The cylinder head 100 includes a cylinder head body 101, and the cylinder head body 101 is arranged at one end of the cylinder sleeve 200. The cylinder head body 101 has a sleeve 102 extending along the cylinder hole 201. The sleeve 102 is sleeved on the outside of the cylinder sleeve 200, and the cylinder sleeve 200 is arranged inside the sleeve 102. The cylinder head body 101 and the sleeve 102 are made of plastic in one piece. The technical solution of the present invention uses the plastic cylinder head body 101 and the sleeve 102 thereon to wrap the entire cylinder hole 201, which plays a role of heat insulation and avoids harmful heat conduction and heat convection.

[0031] In the technical solution of the present invention, the cylinder head 100 includes a cylinder head body 101 and a sleeve 102. The cylinder head body 101 and the sleeve 102 are made of plastic in one piece, such as glass fiber reinforced nylon material, and have good thermal insulation performance. The sleeve 102 is sleeved on the outside of the cylinder liner 200. The plastic material of the cylinder head body 101 and the sleeve 102 makes it have good thermal insulation performance, which avoids the transfer of heat from the high-temperature gas in the exhaust channel to the inside of the compressor casing, effectively reduces the compressor suction overheating, and improves the compressor cooling capacity and performance coefficient.

[0040] See also Figure 7 In some embodiments of the present invention, during the assembly process, the first step is to embed the valve component into the sleeve 102 with the guide groove 103 of the sleeve 102 as a guide, and use the positioning wings 107 for positioning to ensure the correct assembly relationship. The second step is to embed the cylinder sleeve 200 into the sleeve 102 with the guide groove 103 of the sleeve 102 as a guide, and use the positioning block 202 for positioning. Under the action of the screw torque, the cylinder head 100, the valve component and the cylinder sleeve 200 are pressed against the bracket 300, and the main support force point is the contact surface between the positioning block 202 of the cylinder sleeve 200 and the bottom of the cylinder sleeve positioning groove 304 of the bracket 300.

[0041] After assembly is completed, the sleeve 102 separates the cylinder liner 200 from the cylinder liner positioning groove 304 of the bracket 300, avoiding the high-temperature cylinder liner 200 from contacting the cylinder liner positioning groove 304 of the bracket 300, thereby avoiding harmful heat exchange, greatly improving the compressor suction overheating, and improving the compressor cooling capacity and performance.
