[0002] In daily life, air conditioners are widely used as indoor temperature regulation equipment. The main power equipment of air conditioners is the compressor, so the service life of the compressor affects the service life of the entire air conditioner.

[0003] The compressor is mainly composed of a power mechanism and a compression mechanism. The compression mechanism uses the power output of the power mechanism to compress the refrigerant. The power mechanism requires lubricating oil to provide it with lubrication, sealing, cooling and other functions. Therefore, its service life is closely related to the quality of the lubricating oil.

[0004] As the compressor's service life increases, the quality of the lubricating oil will gradually decline. Therefore, the compressor needs to be replaced with oil during repair or maintenance. However, some existing compressors are only equipped with an oil drain pipe with a one-way valve. The maintenance technician can only drain the oil but cannot fill it with oil. If such compressors need to be filled with oil after draining the oil, they often need to be returned to the factory and filled with oil using the manufacturer's unique oil filling equipment, which seriously delays the time required for repair and maintenance and reduces the efficiency of repair and maintenance.

[0005] Therefore, people are in urgent need of a compressor oil changing mechanism for improving the maintenance efficiency of a compressor that is not provided with an oil filling port. Summary of the invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] The utility model aims to provide a compressor oil changing mechanism and a compressor using the same, so as to solve the problems existing in the prior art. By utilizing the arrangement of the first valve body and the second valve body, the oil changing operation of the compressor can be completed in situ, thereby improving the maintenance efficiency.

[0024] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1As shown, a compressor oil changing mechanism is provided, including a first connecting pipe 1, a second connecting pipe 2, a first valve body 3 and a second valve body 4. The first connecting pipe 1 is connected with the first valve body 3, and the first valve body 3 can be located at the end or the middle of the first connecting pipe 1. The second connecting pipe 2 is connected with the second valve body 4, and the second valve body 4 can be located at the end or the middle of the second connecting pipe 2. One end of the first connecting pipe 1 is connected to the air inlet of the compressor, and the other end is connected to the oil supply port of the oil supply equipment or the refrigerant supply pipeline according to the working condition. One end of the second connecting pipe 2 is connected to the air outlet of the compressor, and the other end is connected to the suction port of the vacuum equipment or the refrigerant discharge pipeline according to the working condition. When the compressor works normally, the first connecting pipe 1 is connected to the refrigerant supply pipeline, and the second connecting pipe 2 is connected to the refrigerant discharge pipeline. When the compressor is in oil changing working condition, the first connecting pipe 1 is connected to the oil supply equipment, and the second connecting pipe 2 is connected to the vacuum equipment; the oil supply equipment can be a box body, a bag body, a refueling gun, etc. containing oil, and the vacuum equipment uses a vacuum pump.

[0026] The working principle of this mechanism is as follows: when oil change is needed, the lubricating oil in the compressor is first discharged by using the oil drain pipe 8. After the discharge is completed, the first connecting pipe 1 is connected to the oil supply equipment, and the second connecting pipe 2 is connected to the vacuum pumping equipment. The vacuum pumping equipment is started, and the lubricating oil in the oil supply equipment enters the compression mechanism of the compressor. By utilizing the flow characteristics of the lubricating oil liquid, under the influence of gravity, the lubricating oil passes through the gap between the compression mechanism and the power mechanism and enters the compressor power mechanism; after the oil filling is completed, the first valve body 3 is closed, and the vacuum pumping equipment is used to vacuum the compressor. After the vacuum pumping is completed, the second valve body 4 is closed. At this time, the oil change operation is completed. The oil change operation of the compressor without an oil filling port can be completed in situ without returning to the factory for oil change. The operation is convenient and the maintenance efficiency is high.

[0027] The first valve body 3 and the second valve body 4 can be manual valves or solenoid valves. Preferably, the first valve body 3 and the second valve body 4 are needle valves, which can reduce costs accordingly.

[0029] The mechanism also includes a third valve body 5 and a fourth valve body 6. One end of the third valve body 5 is connected to the refrigerant supply pipeline, and the other end is detachably connected to the first connecting pipe 1. One end of the fourth valve body 6 is connected to the refrigerant discharge pipeline, and the other end is detachably connected to the second connecting pipe 2. The detachable connection is a threaded connection. When the compressor is repaired and maintained, the third valve body 5 and the fourth valve body 6 can be turned off to avoid leakage of the refrigerant in the pipeline, thereby saving refrigerant and reducing maintenance costs.

[0030] To reduce costs, the third valve body 5 and the fourth valve body 6 are manual valves, such as shut-off valves, stop valves, ball valves, etc.

[0031] In order to eliminate the time required for replacing the connecting pipe and connecting different pipelines when changing the oil, the first connecting pipe 1 and the second connecting pipe 2 can be set as three-way connecting pipes, the first valve body 3 and the third valve body 5 are respectively connected to different passages of the first connecting pipe 1, and the second valve body 4 and the fourth valve body 6 are respectively connected to different passages of the second connecting pipe 2, and the switching between the passages can be completed by controlling each valve body.

[0032] When the connecting pipe is set as a three-way connecting pipe, a blocking piece is provided at the passage opening of the first connecting pipe 1 connected to the first valve body 3, and a blocking piece is provided at the passage opening of the second connecting pipe 2 connected to the second valve body 4. The blocking piece can be a threaded cover body, which is used to block the passage opening when the compressor is in normal working condition to prevent the entry of debris.

[0033] The oil changing mechanism in this embodiment can be installed on the compressor during the production phase, and can also be installed on the compressor during the subsequent maintenance phase.

[0034] The utility model also provides a compressor using the above-mentioned compressor oil changing mechanism, including a compressor body 7, an oil drain pipe 8 with a built-in one-way valve is arranged at the bottom of the compressor body 7, the air inlet pipe of the compressor body 7 is connected to the first connecting pipe 1, the air outlet pipe is connected to the second connecting pipe 2, the refrigerant supply pipeline of the compressor body 7 is connected to the third valve body 5, and the refrigerant discharge pipeline of the compressor body 7 is connected to the fourth valve body 6.

[0035] When the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe of the compressor are used as the first connecting pipe 1 and the second connecting pipe 2 , they can be welded to the first valve body 3 and the second valve body 4 .
