Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of rotary compressors, in particular to a filterless liquid accumulator and a compressor. Background Art
[0002] A compressor is a fluid machine that raises low-pressure gas to high-pressure gas. It is the heart of a refrigeration system. By sucking in low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant gas from the suction pipe and using the operation of the motor to drive the piston to compress the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant gas, and then discharging the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas to the exhaust pipe, thus providing power for the refrigeration cycle. Existing rotary compressors usually have a suction liquid accumulator on the suction side to separate the liquid refrigerant and gaseous refrigerant sucked in from the refrigeration system, preventing liquid refrigerant from entering the cylinder during the operation of the compressor and causing liquid compression.
[0003] The current liquid accumulator structure mostly includes an inlet pipe, a cylinder body, a filter screen, a partition plate, an inner pipe and an outlet pipe structure. The refrigerant enters the cylinder body from the inlet pipe, passes through the filter screen, and reaches the cylinder body. The inner pipe is installed below the filter screen, and the air flow flows out from the inner pipe and reaches the inside of the compressor through the outlet pipe. The filter screen plays a role in filtering foreign objects and preventing liquid refrigerant from entering the inside of the compressor. In the current liquid accumulator structure, the openings of the inner pipe are all upward, and the filter screen needs to play the role of a baffle to guide the liquid refrigerant from all around, so as to avoid entering the inner pipe and causing liquid accumulation. However, the existence of the filter screen occupies the internal space of the liquid accumulator and easily increases the flow loss of the refrigerant, which will reduce the performance of the compressor.
