[0029] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and is by no means a limitation on the utility model and its application or use. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0030] See also Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the screw compressor of this embodiment includes a housing 1, a screw 2 and a plate-shaped component 3. The housing 1 has a screw cavity. The screw 2 includes a screw body 21 arranged in the screw cavity.
[0031] The plate-like component 3 is replaceably arranged at one end of the screw cavity along the axial direction of the screw 2, the thickness direction of the plate-like component 3 is parallel to the axial direction of the screw 2, and the plate-like component 3 is arranged at the exhaust end of the screw body 21, so that the volume of the screw cavity and the exhaust end face gap can be adjusted by changing the thickness of the plate-like component 3.
[0032] In this embodiment, the plate-like component 3 can be filled in the screw cavity to reduce the length and volume of the screw cavity, and can also change the exhaust end face clearance of the screw body 21, which is conducive to realizing the derivative design of different exhaust volumes of the screw compressor. Furthermore, the exhaust end face clearance is adjusted by controlling the thickness of the plate-like component 3, replacing the traditional exhaust end face clearance adjustment method, and the structure is simple and reliable.
[0033] Figure 7 and Figure 8 The schematic structural diagrams of compressors with plate-like components 3 of different thicknesses are shown respectively.
[0034] In this embodiment, the screw 2 also includes a connecting shaft 22 arranged at the exhaust end of the screw body 21, wherein the connecting shaft 22 includes a first shaft section close to the screw body 21 and a second shaft section connected to the first shaft section, and the diameter of the first shaft section is larger than the diameter of the second shaft section. The plate-like component 3 is provided with an axial hole 32 adapted to the first shaft section, and the plate-like component 3 is sleeved on the first shaft section. A bearing seat 5 is provided at the exhaust end of the screw body 21, and the bearing seat 5 includes a first hole section 51 adapted to the first shaft section and a second hole section adapted to the outer diameter of the first bearing 4 sleeved on the second shaft section, and the inner diameter of the second hole section is larger than the first hole section. The length of the first shaft section of the connecting shaft 22 is L2. The length of the first hole section 51 of the bearing seat 5 adapted to the first shaft section is D3, see Figure 3 and 6 .
[0035] The thickness of the plate-like member 3 is L, the width of the inner ring of the first bearing 4 is D2, and the width of the outer end of the first bearing 4 is D2.
[0036] Optionally, the first bearing 4 is a cylindrical roller bearing. In some embodiments, a second bearing is further provided on the side of the first bearing 4 away from the first shaft section, and the second bearing is sleeved on the second shaft section of the connecting shaft 22 and located in the second hole section of the bearing seat 5. In some embodiments, the second bearing is a ball bearing.
[0037] Exhaust end face clearance C = (L1-D3-L) + (D2-D1). In this embodiment, only a single plate-shaped component 3 is used to adjust the exhaust end face clearance. Conventional clearance adjustment requires the use of inner and outer adjustment rings, and the prerequisite is that the initial clearance C will only be less than or equal to the design value (which can be controlled by macroscopic dimensions), and then only the exhaust sealing plate thickness L needs to be reduced to meet the clearance requirement.
[0038] The plate-like component 3 is provided with an exhaust portion 31 for outputting the gas compressed by the screw 2. Providing the exhaust portion on the plate-like component 3 replaces the conventional mode of providing the exhaust portion on the bearing seat 5, diversifies the selection and design of the exhaust portion, and makes the bearing seat 5 more versatile.
[0039] In some embodiments, the exhaust portion 31 includes an inlet provided on the end surface of one end of the plate-shaped member 3 along the axial direction of the screw 2 and an outlet provided on the peripheral surface of the outer end of the plate-shaped member 3 along the radial direction of the screw 2. The inlet of the plate-shaped member 3 is connected to the exhaust port of the screw body 1. The gas compressed by the screw body 21 enters the inlet of the exhaust portion 31 and is discharged from the outlet.
[0040] In some embodiments, the housing 1 is provided with an exhaust channel communicating with the screw cavity, and the exhaust channel is connected with the outlet of the exhaust part 31. The gas compressed by the screw body 21 is discharged from the outlet of the exhaust part 31 along the radial direction of the screw 2 to the exhaust channel, and there is no need to provide a channel for circulating the compressed gas on the bearing seat 5.
[0041] In some embodiments, at least a portion of the exhaust channel is connected to and communicates with the outlet of the exhaust portion 31. The gas discharged from the exhaust portion 31 is directly discharged from the exhaust channel connected to the screw cavity, and there is no need to set a channel on the bearing seat 5 for circulating the compressed gas.
[0042] In some embodiments, the plate-shaped component 3 is connected to a side of the bearing seat 5 adjacent to the screw cavity. The plate-shaped component 3 is provided with a mounting hole 33 for a threaded connector connecting the plate-shaped component 3 and the bearing seat 5 .
[0043] In some embodiments, the plate-like component 3 is attached to the end surface of the screw cavity at the exhaust end of the screw body 21. The plate-like component 3 is attached to the screw cavity, which is beneficial to reducing the volume of the clearance increased by the arrangement of the plate-like component 3, and is beneficial to improving the compression efficiency of the compressor and ensuring the compression ratio of the compressor.
[0044] In some embodiments, the circumferential surface of the outer end of the plate-like component 3 along the radial direction of the screw 2 is sealed with the inner circumferential wall of the screw cavity, which is beneficial to reduce the clearance of the compression chamber of the compressor and improve the compression efficiency and compression ratio of the compressor.
[0045] In some embodiments, the screw 2 further includes a connecting shaft 22 disposed at the exhaust end of the screw body 21, and the plate-shaped component 3 is provided with an axial hole 32 allowing the connecting shaft 22 to pass through, and the connecting shaft 22 is sealed with the hole wall of the axial hole 32. This is beneficial to reducing the clearance of the compression chamber of the compressor and improving the compression efficiency and compression ratio of the compressor.
[0046] In some embodiments, the length of the screw body 21 is L1, and the thickness of the plate-like component 3 is L, wherein L / (L+L1)≤20%. The design of the compressor derivative model is realized by changing the length of the screw body 21 and adding the plate-like component 3, and the thickness L of the plate-like component 3 needs to satisfy L / (L+L1)≤20%.
[0047] In this embodiment, the screw 2 includes a male rotor and a female rotor meshing with the male rotor, and the plate-like component 3 includes a first plate-like component respectively arranged at the exhaust end of the male rotor and a second plate-like component respectively arranged at the exhaust end of the female rotor. The outer diameter R1 of the first plate-like component is the same as the outer diameter of the male rotor, and the outer diameter R2 of the second plate-like component is the same as the outer diameter of the female rotor. The first plate-like component and the second plate-like component are respectively provided with an exhaust portion 31, and the structure of the exhaust portion 31 can be set according to the actual operating conditions of the compressor. The exhaust portion 31 is arranged on the plate-like component 3 to make it operable and easy to adjust. In addition, the structure of the plate-like component 3 can be designed as a whole, processed and assembled as a whole; it can also be designed in half as shown in the figure, divided along the intersection of the two circles of the first plate-like component and the second plate-like component, and processed and assembled separately.
[0048] In this embodiment, the screw compressor further comprises a driving component 6 disposed at one end of the screw 2 away from the bearing seat 5, and the driving component 6 is drivingly connected to the screw to change the rotation of the screw to compress the gas.
[0049] According to another aspect of the present invention, an air-conditioning system is further provided. In some embodiments, the air-conditioning system includes the above-mentioned screw compressor.
