Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of compressor technology, specifically to an exhaust valve plate assembly and a compressor. Background Technology

[0002] A hermetic compressor includes an electric motor housed inside a sealed casing that generates driving force, and a compression component connected to the motor for compressing the refrigerant. Hermetic compressors can be classified into reciprocating compressors, scroll compressors, and rolling rotor compressors based on their refrigerant compressor structure.

[0003] During operation, a compressor periodically performs intake, compression, and exhaust processes. For example, when the compressor is running, the crankshaft rotates, driving the piston and blades in the cylinder to reciprocate, thus drawing in low-pressure refrigerant and compressing it into high-pressure refrigerant. When the pressure inside the cylinder exceeds the exhaust pressure, the high-pressure refrigerant opens the exhaust valve through the exhaust port to release the refrigerant. After exhausting, the valve closes to shut off the exhaust port, completing the intake, compression, and exhaust processes. The compressor cylinder head has an exhaust valve seat and an exhaust port. The exhaust valve assembly is fixed to an exhaust valve seat and is used to close or open the exhaust port on the exhaust valve seat. Traditional exhaust valve assemblies mainly consist of a valve plate, a baffle, a valve seat, and rivets. Figures 1 to 4 As shown, valve plate 20' is a flexible thin-film structure. During the exhaust phase, valve plate 20' opens, and its lift is limited by baffle 10'. After exhaust, valve plate 20' recovers its deformation due to its own rigidity. When the compressor exhausts, the high-pressure gas pushes valve plate 20' to open through the exhaust port, causing valve plate 20' to impact baffle 10' at high speed. The reciprocating impact between valve plate 20' and baffle 10' can lead to fatigue fracture of valve plate 20' and increased compressor noise, affecting the reliability of the compressor.

[0046] The exhaust valve plate assembly provided by the utility model will be explained and described in detail in combination with the embodiments below.

[0047] As Figures 5 to 8 As shown in the utility model embodiment, an exhaust valve plate assembly is fixed on an exhaust valve seat and used for closing or opening an exhaust hole on the exhaust valve seat. The exhaust valve plate assembly comprises a valve plate 20 and a baffle 10 arranged on the side of the valve plate 20 away from the exhaust valve seat (not shown in the drawing), and the valve plate 20 can close or open the exhaust hole on the exhaust valve seat 30. When the valve plate 20 is opened by the high-pressure gas, the baffle 10 limits the movement height of the valve plate 20 after being opened.

[0048] Further, the baffle 10 comprises a first connecting portion 11, a limiting portion 12 and a buffering portion 13 connected in sequence, the limiting portion 12 is bent in a direction away from the valve plate 20, the buffering portion 13 is arranged on a side of the limiting portion 12 away from the valve plate 20, and the buffering portion 13 extends towards the first connecting portion 11.

[0049] By adding the buffering portion 13 on the baffle 10, when the valve plate 20 moves towards the baffle 10 and collides with the valve plate 20, the buffering portion 13 can absorb and dissipate part of the energy generated during the collision, so as to reduce the energy of the baffle 10 acting on the valve plate 20, that is, to reduce the impact force of the valve plate 2, and to reduce the probability of fatigue fracture of the valve plate 20; further, the vibration of the valve plate 20 during periodic closing or opening of the exhaust hole can be reduced, the noise during compression operation can be reduced, and the comfort and stability of the compressor operation can be improved; compared with the exhaust valve plate assembly in the prior art, only the buffering portion 13 is added on the valve plate 20 in the utility model, the structure of the valve plate 20 is changed little, the valve plate 20 is easy to manufacture, and the production cost of the changed valve plate 20 is small.

[0051] As shown in Figures 5 to 7 , in some embodiments, the buffering portion 13 comprises a circular structure or an elliptical structure. For example, in the embodiment of the utility model, the second part 132 is a tongue spring. The tongue spring is a flexible metal sheet shaped like a tongue (elliptical structure), when energy is transmitted to the tongue spring, the tongue spring will shake several times to dissipate part of the energy, so that the impact force of the baffle acting on the valve plate is reduced. The shape of the second part 132 is not limited to the tongue spring shown, and those skilled in the art can change the shape of the second part 132 according to actual needs to meet the needs of the buffering performance.

[0052] In some embodiments, the thickness of the first connecting portion 11 and the limiting portion 12 of the baffle 10 is 0.5mm-1mm, and the thickness of the buffering portion 13 is 0.5-1.5 times the thickness of the first connecting portion 11. For example, the thickness of the first connecting portion 11 and the limiting portion 12 is 0.6mm, 0.7mm, 0.8mm, 0.9mm. The thickness range of the baffle 10 is set to make the baffle 10 have good rigidity, so that the baffle 10 has good anti-deformation ability.

[0053] Further, the curvature of the limiting portion 12 is set to a conventional size in the prior art, so that the valve plate 20 can be attached to the baffle 10 with a large area.

[0054] Further, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the valve plate 20 includes a second connecting portion 21 and a third connecting portion 22 connected in sequence, and at least part of the third connecting portion 22 can block the exhaust hole of the compressor.

[0055] Further, refer to Figure 7 The schematic structure of the valve plate 20 shown by the dashed portion, the buffer portion 13 has L max and M max , wherein L max is the maximum length of the second component in the second direction, M max is the maximum width of the second component perpendicular to the second direction in the same plane, and satisfies M max ≦L max ≦1.2M max , the size of the buffer portion 13 is reasonably set, so that the buffer portion 13 can play a better buffering function.

[0056] Further, as shown in Figures 5 to 7 , the first connecting portion 11 of the baffle 10 is provided with a first through hole, and the second connecting portion 21 of the valve plate 20 is provided with a second through hole, and a bolt can pass through the first through hole and the second through hole to screw the baffle 10 and the valve plate 20 to the exhaust valve seat.

[0057] Further, as shown in Figure 8 , the first connecting portion 11 and the second connecting portion 21 have the same shape. The above structure can make the first connecting portion 11 and the second connecting portion 21 more closely attached, which is convenient for processing and manufacturing.

[0058] In order to confirm that the baffle 10 provided with the buffer portion 13 in the exhaust valve plate assembly provided in the embodiment of the utility model can reduce the impact force received by the valve plate 20, the impact force received by the valve plate 20' of the exhaust valve plate assembly in the prior art and the valve plate 20 of the exhaust valve plate assembly in the embodiment of the utility model are compared by simulation test. The impact process of the valve plate and the baffle during the compressor exhaust process is simulated, the valve plate is opened under the action of the pressure difference force, and the impact force is generated by impacting the baffle. Table 1 below shows the impact force received by the valve plate 20' in the exhaust valve plate assembly in the prior art when opening, and table 2 below shows the impact force received by the valve plate 20' in the exhaust valve plate assembly provided in the embodiment of the utility model when opening.

[0059] Table 1 Impact force received by the valve plate 20' impacting the baffle 10' in the prior art and the impact force received by the valve plate 20 impacting the baffle 10 in the embodiment of the utility model simulation calculation result

[0060]

Therefore, the impact force on the valve plate 20 in the embodiment of the present application is less than the impact force on the valve plate 20' in the prior art. Therefore, the setting of the buffer portion 13 of the baffle 10 can significantly improve the impact force on the valve plate 20.

[0062] The embodiment of the present application also provides a compressor, which comprises a cylinder cover and the exhaust valve plate assembly as described above, the cylinder cover is provided with an exhaust valve seat and an exhaust hole, and the exhaust valve plate assembly is connected to the exhaust valve seat and used for opening and closing the exhaust hole.

[0064] By adding the buffer portion to the baffle, when the valve plate moves towards the baffle and collides with the valve plate, the buffer portion can absorb and dissipate part of the energy generated during the collision, thereby reducing the energy of the baffle acting on the valve plate, i.e. reducing the impact force on the valve plate, and reducing the probability of fatigue fracture of the valve plate. Furthermore, the vibration of the valve plate during periodic closing or opening of the exhaust hole can be reduced, the noise during the operation of the compressor can be reduced, and the comfort and working stability of the compressor during operation can be improved.
