AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing scroll compressors, as the weight of the orbiting scroll increases, the height and deformation risk of the balance block cover increase, resulting in air flow agitation and oil discharge rate being affected. In addition, the traditional balance block cover is easy to deform and cannot meet the requirements of high-speed rotation.

Method used

A combination of balancing blocks and full-circle blocks is used to form an annular structure that is sleeved on the eccentric shaft. The full-circle block replaces the traditional balancing block cover to eliminate the rotational inertia force and inertia moment, and reduce the impact of air flow agitation and oil discharge rate. The full-circle block is made of lightweight material to improve stability.

Benefits of technology

In the case of eliminating the balancing block cover, the rotational inertia force and inertia moment are effectively eliminated, the air flow agitation and oil discharge rate are reduced, the stability and reliability of the scroll compressor are improved, and it adapts to the requirements of high-speed rotation.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of compressors, and in particular to a balancing block assembly and a scroll compressor. Background Art

[0002] Due to the presence of a moving scroll disk and an eccentric shaft, a scroll compressor has unbalanced rotational inertia force and inertia moment during movement. Therefore, a balancing block is usually provided on the eccentric shaft of the scroll compressor to eliminate the unbalanced inertia force and inertia moment and ensure the overall dynamic balance of the compressor. The balancing block is also usually equipped with a balancing block cover to reduce the agitation of the airflow near the exhaust port inside the compressor when the balancing block rotates with the eccentric shaft, as well as the impact on the oil discharge rate of the compressor.

[0003] As the requirements for the speed of the compressor unit continue to increase, the weight of the movable scroll disk continues to increase, and the weight and height of the balance block also continue to increase, which makes the height of the balance block cover also increase. However, the thickness of the plate of the balance block cover is usually thin, and the increase in its height also increases the risk of deformation of the balance block cover; if the thickness of the balance block cover is simply increased, not only the weight of the ineffective part will be increased, but the deformation of the balance block cover will also reduce the insulation distance between it and the terminal inside the compressor.
