[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the drawings: As Figure 1 — Figure 4As shown, this embodiment provides a centrifugal compressor with a volute heat dissipation structure, including a motor system 1, an automatic balancing system 2, a first compression system 3 and a second compression system 4, the motor system 1 has two output ends, the first compression system 3 and the second compression system 4 are installed on both sides of the motor system 1, and the first compression system 3 and the second compression system 4 are respectively connected to the corresponding output ends in a transmission manner, the motor system 1 is used to drive the first compression system 3 and the second compression system 4 to compress gas, the motor system 1 includes a stator 11, a rotor device 12, a casing 13, two motor end covers 14, two bearings 15, two copper sleeves 16, two end cover inner covers 17 and two end cover outer covers 18, the rotor device 12 forms two output ends, the stator 11 is installed in the casing 13, The rotor device 12 is installed on the corresponding motor end cover 14 through each bearing 15, and each copper sleeve 16 is sleeved on the corresponding bearing 15. The outer rings of the copper sleeve 16 and the bearing 15 are both provided with openings. The motor end cover 14 is provided with an oil supply channel 141, and the oil supply channel 141 is connected to the openings on the copper sleeve 16 and the openings on the outer ring of the bearing 15. The copper sleeve 16 and the motor end cover 14 are clearance-matched, and the pressurized lubricating oil injected from the oil supply channel 141 enters the gap between the copper sleeve 16 and the motor end cover 14, so that when the rotor device 12 rotates, after the rotor device 12 vibrates due to a dynamic balance problem, the vibration of the rotor device 12 is buffered because the gap between the copper sleeve 16 and the motor end cover 14 is filled with pressurized oil, and a heat dissipation effect is produced, thereby increasing the life of the equipment.

[0021] Each end cover inner cover 17 is installed on the side of the corresponding motor end cover 14 close to the stator 11, and each end cover outer cover 18 is installed on the side of the corresponding motor end cover 14 away from the stator 11. The end cover inner cover 17 and the end cover outer cover 18 are connected to the rotor device 12 through a sealing sleeve to prevent lubricating oil leakage. The automatic balancing system 2 includes a plurality of eccentric rings 21 and a plurality of reference columns 22. Each reference column 22 is evenly installed in the housing 13 along the inner side of the housing 13. Each eccentric ring 21 is sleeved and installed outside the rotor device 12. The diameter of the cylindrical surface where the vertex of each reference column 22 is located is defined as the first diameter. The diameter of the eccentric ring 21 The outer diameter is defined as the second diameter, and the difference between the first diameter and the second diameter is equal to twice the gap between the copper sleeve 16 and the motor end cover 14. The distance between the center of the eccentric ring 21 and the rotation axis of the rotor device 12 is smaller than the gap between the copper sleeve 16 and the motor end cover 14. When the rotor device 12 vibrates, causing the rotation axis of the rotor device 12 to shift slightly, the reference column 22 rubs against the shifted eccentric ring 21, causing the eccentric ring 21 to rotate. Since the eccentric ring 21 rotates relative to the rotor device 12, the rotor device 12 automatically adjusts the dynamic balance, the equipment has little impact, and the equipment life is long.

[0022] Please note that since the difference between the first diameter and the second diameter is equal to twice the clearance between the copper sleeve 16 and the motor end cover 14, when the rotor device 12 rotates smoothly, the eccentric ring 21 should not touch the reference post 22. However, when the rotor device 12 vibrates severely, the eccentric ring 21 will touch the reference post 22. It is worth noting that the side that touches the reference post 22 must be the heavier side of the rotor device 12. After the protruding eccentric ring 21 touches the reference post 22, the eccentric ring 21 will rotate, enabling the eccentric ring 21 to pass through the position of the reference post 22 without being blocked. As a result, the weight on the heavier side of the rotor device 12 is reduced, achieving automatic adjustment of the dynamic balance of the rotor device 12 and ensuring smooth rotation of the rotor device 12.

[0023] Specifically, the first compression system 3 includes a first volute end cover 31, a first volute 32, a first collector 33, and a first impeller 34.

The space between the first volute end cover 31 and the rotor device 12 is sealed by a stepped seal sleeve. The rotation of the first impeller 34 achieves primary pressurization.

[0024] Specifically, the second compression system 4 includes a second volute end cover 41, a second volute 42, a second collector 43, and a second impeller 44.

The second impeller 44 is installed on the rotor device 12, and the second impeller 44 is located within the second collector 43. The space between the second volute end cover 41 and the rotor device 12 is sealed by a stepped seal sleeve. The rotation of the second impeller 44 achieves secondary pressurization.

[0025] Specifically, the rotor device 12 includes two output shafts 121 and an intermediate sleeve 122. The two output shafts 121 are installed on both sides of the intermediate sleeve 122, thereby ensuring synchronous rotation of the two output shafts 121. Each eccentric ring 21 is sleeved outside the intermediate sleeve 122.

[0026] Specifically, at the end of the oil supply channel 141 of the motor end cover 14, a flared pipe joint and an extended joint are successively provided for oil inlet.

[0028] Specifically, a number of pressure-holding grooves 161 are provided on the side of the copper bushing 16 close to the motor end cover 14. When the copper bushing 16 vibrates, the pressure-holding grooves 161 block the outflow of the pressure oil, reduce the flow rate of the pressure oil, and ensure sufficient oil pressure of the pressure oil between the copper bushing 16 and the motor end cover 14.

[0029] Specifically, the mutually approaching positions of the eccentric ring 21 and a number of reference posts 22 are circular arcs, reducing the impact force of collision and increasing the service life.
