Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of compressor production, in particular to a compressor shell capable of identifying the filling amount of refrigeration oil. Background Art
[0002] At present, during the production process of reciprocating piston compressors, there are often abnormalities such as difficulty in starting the compressor or excessive shell temperature or even machine tripping. In addition, during the operation of the compressor, customers sometimes report abnormal mechanical noises and the compressor takes significantly longer to reach low temperature. After checking the compressor, and checking the accuracy of parts, assembly clearance and overload capacity of the motor, no faults such as part accuracy, assembly clearance and motor were found. Finally, after analysis, it was found that the compressor refrigeration oil was insufficient. The refrigeration oil of the compressor plays a role in cooling and lubrication during the operation of the machine. As a result, the compressor refrigeration oil is insufficient, resulting in poor cooling and lubrication. Well, the compressor has problems such as difficulty in starting, high shell temperature, and even tripping; and sometimes customers report abnormal mechanical sounds, the compressor's low-temperature time becomes significantly longer, and there is no problem with the precision assembly gap of parts. Finally, it is found that the compressor has too much refrigeration oil, which causes the motor rotor to contact the oil and mechanical oil stirring sound. At the same time, because of the large amount of oil filling, part of the oil is discharged to the customer's refrigeration system through the exhaust pipe, which not only occupies the heat exchange area, but also because the refrigerant dissolved in the oil increases, and the mass flow of the refrigerant participating in the evaporation process decreases, affecting the heat exchange and cooling capacity, causing the customer's low-temperature time to become significantly longer. In addition, sometimes due to the failure of the oil filling equipment at the production site, the amount of refrigeration oil filling is too little or too much, resulting in similar problems with customers.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "middle", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.
[0027] As Figure 1 shown, a compressor housing capable of identifying the filling amount of refrigeration oil includes an upper housing 2 and a lower housing 1. A visualization part is provided on the lower housing 1. The visualization part can at least observe the refrigeration oil remaining in the lower housing and the position of the oil suction pipe of the crankshaft. Scale marks are also provided on the visualization part.
[0028] Through the setting of the visualization part of the compressor housing, the oil amount in the compressor housing can be intuitively and accurately observed to identify the filling amount of refrigeration oil, which is beneficial for the staff to timely discover problems with the refrigeration oil and avoid adverse effects on the subsequent normal operation of the compressor.
[0029] Through this visualization part, the optimal filling amount of the compressor refrigeration oil can also be determined. After the compressor runs and the refrigeration system runs for a period of time, the refrigeration oil will adsorb on the surfaces of each moving pair of the pump body, in the motor stator winding, etc., and in the two heat exchangers of the refrigeration system. Part of the oil cannot return to the compressor. After the compressor stops, through this visualization part, the oil inlet depth of the oil suction pipe can be identified, and through the relationship between the filling amount and the oil inlet depth of the oil suction pipe, the optimal filling amount and the position of the optimal filling amount scale line can be determined.
[0030] Through this visualization part, the problem of insufficient refrigeration oil in the compressor can also be discovered. When the compressor is running, since the refrigeration oil will adsorb on the surfaces of each moving pair of the pump body, in the motor stator winding, etc., and in the two heat exchangers of the refrigeration system, part of the oil cannot return to the compressor. At this time, when the oil inlet depth of the oil suction pipe is insufficient or the oil suction pipe just touches the oil surface, through this visualization part, the size of the oil inlet depth of the compressor crankshaft oil suction pipe can be clearly seen. It can not only identify the insufficient oil injection amount of the compressor, but also when the oil inlet depth is insufficient, by comparing with the position of the optimal filling amount scale line, add an appropriate amount of oil until it reaches the position of the optimal filling amount scale line.
[0031] Through this visualization part, it is also possible to identify the problem of excessive refrigerant oil in the compressor. When the compressor is running, since the refrigerant oil will adsorb on the surfaces of various moving pairs of the pump body, as well as the motor stator winding, etc., inside the two heat exchangers of the refrigeration system, it will cause some oil not to return to the compressor. When the refrigerant oil filling amount is on the high side, at this time, the oil inlet depth of the suction pipe exceeds the position of the optimal filling amount scale line, and the oil amount is continuously poured out to make the oil amount return to the position of the optimal filling amount scale line.

[0033] In this embodiment, the visualization part is formed by opening an opening on the lower housing and then installing the transparent glass.
