Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of oil-free scroll compressors, and particularly relates to a multi-unit scroll compressor with independent air inlet and outlet. Background Art
[0002] The main body of a scroll compressor mainly consists of a moving scroll disk, a stationary scroll disk, a crankshaft, a centrifugal air wheel, etc. The crankshaft is driven by an electric motor to rotate. The crankshaft drives the moving scroll disk to rotate. The moving scroll disk and the stationary scroll disk are engaged to form a compression chamber. During the operation of the compressor, the moving scroll disk and the stationary scroll disk will generate heat due to friction and gas compression. In order to maintain their normal working temperature, a centrifugal air wheel is used to generate a cooling air flow as it rotates with the crankshaft. The cooling air flow enters the compressor interior through the main body channel, flows through the moving scroll disk and the stationary scroll disk, absorbs heat and then is discharged from the hot air outlet, realizing the cooling of the moving scroll disk and the stationary scroll disk. In addition, in order to achieve a large displacement, the usual practice is to stack multiple main bodies. However, the air outlet channels of the cooling air after the existing main bodies absorb heat are shared channels and are interconnected. When some main bodies are turned on and some other main bodies are turned off, there is a phenomenon that the reverse-flow hot air returns to the main body. Under the air extraction action of the post-cooling fan and the centrifugal air wheel, a negative pressure is formed inside the main body, and the hot air of the turned-on main body flows back more obviously from the main body channel of the turned-off main body into the main body. The view of the reverse flow of hot air is as Figure 1 shown, and most of the space between the main body and the channel is sealed with sound-absorbing cotton, resulting in poor sealing performance, poor elastic compensation and easy air leakage.

Detailed implementation manners
[0026] Figures 2 to 5 Schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a multi-unit scroll compressor with independent air inlet and outlet provided by the present utility model, including a compressor and a box body 1. The housing 23 of the compressor has a hot air outlet 4 for discharging the heat generated by the scroll disk assembly. There are two compressors, namely compressor I 2 and compressor III 3. Compressor I 2 and compressor III 3 are arranged in upper and lower layers and are accommodated in the box body 1. The top side of the box body 1 is provided with a left air outlet 5, and the left air outlet 5 is communicated with the left main channel 6. The left main channel 6 is located on the left side inside the box body 1. A left partition 7 is provided in the left main channel 6, which divides it into independent upper left exhaust channel 8 and lower left exhaust channel 9. The lower left exhaust channel 9 is connected to the hot air outlet 4 of compressor I 2, and the upper left exhaust channel 8 is connected to the hot air outlet 4 of compressor III 3.
[0027] The box body 1 also accommodates compressor II 10 and compressor IV 11. Compressor II 10 and compressor IV 11 are arranged in upper and lower layers, and compressor I 2 and compressor II 10 are centrosymmetric, and compressor III 3 and compressor IV 11 are centrosymmetric. The top side of the box body 1 is provided with a right air outlet 12, and the right air outlet 12 is communicated with the right main channel. The right main channel is located on the right side inside the box body 1. A right partition is provided in the right main channel, which divides it into independent upper right exhaust channel and lower right exhaust channel. The lower right exhaust channel is connected to the hot air outlet 4 of compressor II 10, and the upper right exhaust channel is connected to the hot air outlet 4 of compressor IV 11.
[0028] In this embodiment, the number of compressors is not limited to two or four, and the number of compressors can be set to five, six, etc.
[0029] The left main channel 6 is separated into an independent upper left exhaust channel 8 and a lower left exhaust channel 9 by the left partition 7. The hot air outlet 4 of the compressor I 2 is connected to the lower left exhaust channel 9, and the hot air outlet 4 of the compressor III 3 is connected to the upper left exhaust channel 8. The right main channel is separated into an independent upper right exhaust channel and a lower right exhaust channel by the right partition. The lower right exhaust channel is connected to the hot air outlet 4 of the compressor II 10, and the upper right exhaust channel is connected to the hot air outlet of the compressor IV 11, so that there is an independent air inlet and outlet duct in the whole machine box 1. The compressors I 2, II 10, III 3, and IV 11 have independent exhaust channels. The hot air discharged from the hot air outlet 4 of the compressor I 2 is discharged out of the box 1 from the left air outlet 5 through the lower left exhaust channel 9. The hot air discharged from the hot air outlet 4 of the compressor II 10 is discharged out of the box 1 from the right air outlet 12 through the lower right exhaust channel. The hot air discharged from the hot air outlet 4 of the compressor III 3 is discharged out of the box 1 through the upper left exhaust channel 8. The hot air discharged from the hot air outlet 4 of the compressor IV 11 is discharged out of the box 1 from the right air outlet 12 through the upper right exhaust channel. When any one of the two compressors I 2 and III 3 is turned on and the other is turned off, when the hot air outlet 4 of the turned-on compressor discharges hot air, the hot air will not flow back from the main channel 24 of the turned-off compressor into its main machine, so that the hot air discharged by the compressors I 2 and III 3 will not affect each other. When any one of the two compressors II 10 and IV 11 is turned on and the other is turned off, the principle is the same as that of the compressors I 2 and III 3, so as to prevent the hot air of the turned-on compressor from flowing back from the main channel 24 of the turned-off compressor into the whole machine, which is beneficial to reducing the ambient temperature in the whole machine and ensuring that the suction temperature of each compressor 1 is low, and the working environment temperature of the main machine and the motor is low.
[0030] The left main channel 6 and the right main channel are respectively provided with a heat insulation layer 13.
[0031] By providing the heat insulation layer 13 in the left main channel 6 and the right main channel, it is ensured that the heat in the left main channel 6 and the right main channel will not be dissipated into the box 1, reducing the working environment temperature of each part in the whole machine box 1, having good cooling effect and prolonging the service life of the parts.
[0032] The connections between the lower left exhaust channel 9 and the hot air outlet 4 of the compressor I 2, between the upper left exhaust channel 8 and the hot air outlet 4 of the compressor III 3, between the lower right exhaust channel and the hot air outlet 4 of the compressor II 10, and between the upper right exhaust channel and the hot air outlet 4 of the compressor IV 11 are respectively connected through flexible sealing strips 14.
[0033] The flexible sealing strip 14 is a vehicle sealing strip.
[0034] Using a flexible connection with a vehicle sealing strip can improve the sealing performance of the connection between the lower left exhaust passage 9, the upper left exhaust passage 8, the lower right exhaust passage or the upper right exhaust passage and the hot air outlet 4. The sealing effect is good, preventing the hot air discharged from the compressor main unit from leaking into the box body 1, enabling the hot air to be more effectively transferred to the lower left exhaust passage 9, the upper left exhaust passage 8, the lower right exhaust passage or the upper right exhaust passage. Additionally, it can make the casing 23 of the compressor have no hard connection, enabling the compressor to easily reduce vibration, resulting in lower vibration of the compressor main unit and higher reliability.
[0035] The lower left exhaust passage 9, the upper left exhaust passage 8, the lower right exhaust passage and the upper right exhaust passage respectively have corners 15, and the corner 15 of the lower left exhaust passage 9 is staggered from the position of its air outlet end, the corner 15 of the upper left exhaust passage 8 is staggered from the position of its air outlet end, the corner 15 of the lower right exhaust passage is staggered from the position of its air outlet end, and the corner 15 of the upper right exhaust passage is staggered from the position of its air outlet end.
[0036] By setting corners 15 in the upper left exhaust passage 8, the lower left exhaust passage 9, the upper right exhaust passage and the lower right exhaust passage, and staggering the positions of the corners from their air outlet ends, using the staggered structure of the corner 15 and its air outlet end to intercept directly radiated noise is beneficial to reducing the noise of the compressor main unit and the air flow noise, making the noise of the whole machine lower.
[0037] The left side wall of the box body 1 is provided with an upper left air inlet 16 and a lower left air inlet 17. The lower left air inlet 17 corresponds to the main unit cooling fan 18 of the compressor I 2, and the upper left air inlet 16 corresponds to the main unit cooling fan 18 of the compressor III 3. The right side wall of the box body 1 is provided with an upper right air inlet and a lower right air inlet. The lower right air inlet corresponds to the main unit cooling fan 18 of the compressor II 10, and the upper right air inlet corresponds to the main unit cooling fan 18 of the compressor IV 11.
[0038] The main unit cooling fan 18 of the compressor I independently takes in cooling air through the lower left air inlet 17, the main unit cooling fan 18 of the compressor III 3 independently takes in cooling air through the upper left air inlet 16, the main unit cooling fan 18 of the compressor II 10 independently takes in cooling air through the lower right air inlet, and the main unit cooling fan 18 of the compressor IV 11 independently takes in cooling air through the upper right air inlet. This can enable the main unit cooling fans of each compressor to independently take in cooling air, with a better cooling effect, which can make the exhaust temperature of the compressor main unit lower, thereby enhancing the service life of the main unit's sealing strip, bearings, grease, etc., having a longer service time and higher reliability.
[0039] The top wall of the box body 1 is provided with a rear cooling air outlet 19, and the rear cooling air outlet 19 corresponds to the rear cooling fan 20 inside the box body 1.
[0040] The top wall of the box body 1 is provided with two air extraction openings 21, and two air extraction fans 22 are arranged inside the box body 1. The air extraction openings 21 and the air extraction fans 22 correspond to each other one by one.
[0041] By arranging the air extraction fan 22 to extract air from the inside of the box body 1, the temperature inside the box body 1 can be reduced. Through the after-cooling fan 20, the temperature of the box body 1 can be further reduced.
[0042] The left air outlet 5 and the right air outlet 12 are respectively located beside both ends of the after-cooling air outlet 19, and the two air extraction openings 21 are located beside both sides of the after-cooling air outlet 19.
[0043] The layout positions of each air outlet are reasonably distributed.
[0044] The above detailed description is a specific description of the feasible embodiments of the present invention. This embodiment is not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent implementation or modification without departing from the present invention shall be included in the patent scope of this case.
