[0044] Example

[0045] like Figures 1 to 12 As shown in the figure, this embodiment describes a lubrication structure applied to a refrigerator compressor. The lubrication structure includes a cylinder seat 1, on which a crankshaft 2 and a connecting rod 3 are disposed. One end of the connecting rod 3 is connected to the crankshaft 2, and the other end of the connecting rod 3 is connected to a piston 4. The piston 4 is engaged with a cylinder bore 13.

[0046] In this embodiment, the crankshaft 2 is provided with an oil passage 11. When the crankshaft 2 rotates, the bottom lubricating oil is applied through the oil passage 11 under the action of centrifugal force.

[0047] In this embodiment, the connecting rod 3 is provided with a central oil groove 10, one end of which is connected to the connecting rod large hole 7, and the other end is connected to the connecting rod small hole. An eccentric annular oil groove 6 is formed at the eccentric position of the crankshaft 2, and the eccentric annular oil groove 6 connects the oil passage 11 of the crankshaft 2 and the central oil groove 10 of the connecting rod 3.

[0048] When the crankshaft 2 rotates, the lubricating oil in the oil passage 11 enters the eccentric annular oil groove 6 at the eccentric position of the crankshaft 2, for cooling and lubricating the eccentric position of the crankshaft.

[0049] In this embodiment, the width d1 of the eccentric annular oil groove 6 is less than 30% of the width D1 of the connecting rod large hole 7; the depth of the eccentric annular oil groove 6 is 0.5 mm.

[0050] The width of the central oil groove 10 is less than the width d1 of the eccentric annular oil groove 6.

[0051] In this embodiment, the connecting rod annular oil groove 8 is arranged on the connecting rod small hole, and the connecting rod annular oil groove 8 is communicated with the central oil groove 10. In addition, the oil discharging groove 9 is arranged below the connecting rod annular oil groove 8 in an open loop mode, and the oil discharging groove 9 is communicated with the connecting rod annular oil groove 8.

[0052] When the crankshaft 2 rotates, the lubricating oil flows into the central oil groove 10 of the connecting rod 3 through the eccentric annular oil groove 6. Through the rotation of the connecting rod 3, the lubricating oil enters the connecting rod annular oil groove 8 at the connecting rod small hole from the central oil groove 10 of the connecting rod 3, and then directly enters the cylinder bore 13 through the oil discharging groove 9 to lubricate the cylinder bore 13.

[0053] In this embodiment, the width d2 of the connecting rod annular oil groove 8 is less than 20% of the width D2 of the connecting rod small hole; the depth of the connecting rod annular oil groove 8 is 0.55 mm.

[0054] The width d3 of the oil discharging groove 9 is less than 50% of the radius of the connecting rod small hole.

[0055] In this embodiment, the piston pin 5 is arranged in the connecting rod small hole, and the hollow groove 12 is arranged in the piston pin 5. When the lubricating oil is lubricated, the circulation of the lubricating oil is more favorable. In order to increase the lubrication degree of the lubricating oil and increase the lubrication space of the piston 4 in the cylinder bore 13, rectangular notches are arranged on both sides of the piston 4. The notches can reduce the matching area of the outer surface of the piston 4 and the inner surface of the cylinder bore 13, and reduce the relative friction loss. The width of the notches is 60% of the diameter of the piston 4, and the depth of the notches is 20% of the diameter of the piston 4.

[0056] In this embodiment, the width of the hollow groove 12 in the piston pin 5 is 3 mm.

[0057] When the piston 4 and the piston pin 5 reciprocate in the cylinder bore 13, part of the lubricating oil flows into the hollow groove 12 in the piston pin 5, and then the lubricating oil reaches the entire cylinder head. At the same time, when the piston 4 reciprocates, the rectangular notches on both sides of the piston 4 increase the lubricating oil in the cylinder bore 13, increase the lubrication and cooling effect, and thus improve the performance of the refrigerator compressor.

[0058] The connecting oil groove is designed for the small hole of the connecting rod and the eccentric position of the crankshaft 2, the splash type lubrication mode of the existing lubricating structure is changed, the splashing of the oil is avoided, the oil mist caused by the splashing of the oil to the parts is effectively solved, the problem that the oil mist is sucked into the air intake muffler during air intake, the insufficient problem of the temperature reduction of the cylinder head caused by the reduction of the amount of lubricating oil is avoided, the problem that the poor exhaust caused by the retention of the oil mist in the internal exhaust muffler part is solved, and the problem that the refrigeration effect is affected is solved.

[0059] The lubricating structure of the embodiment can reduce the wear of the compressor and the problem of insufficient lubrication of the moving parts at low rotation speed, thereby increasing the refrigeration effect and reducing the energy consumption, and can also avoid the abnormal noise and vibration caused by the splashing of the oil, and the effect of the compressor in the box is improved.

[0060] The flow path of the lubricating oil in the lubricating structure described in the embodiment is as follows:

[0061] In use, the rotation of the crankshaft 2 causes the bottom lubricating oil to flow into the oil channel 11 of the crankshaft 2 under the action of centrifugal force, and then the lubricating oil enters the eccentric annular oil groove 6 at the eccentric position of the crankshaft 2, is used for cooling and lubricating the eccentric position of the crankshaft, and then enters the central oil groove 10 of the connecting rod 3; the rotation of the connecting rod 3 causes the lubricating oil to enter the annular oil groove 8 of the connecting rod 3, and then flows into the inside of the cylinder hole 13 through the oil discharge groove 9; when the lubricating oil enters the inside of the cylinder hole 13, the piston 4 and the piston pin 5 reciprocate in the inside of the cylinder hole 13, part of the lubricating oil enters the hollow groove 12 in the inside of the piston pin 5 in the reciprocating process, and the lubricating oil further reaches the entire cylinder head.

[0062] The embodiment also describes a refrigerator compressor, and the refrigerator compressor is provided with the lubricating structure.

[0063] The embodiments of the utility model are used to illustrate the technical scheme of the utility model and are not limited, and for those skilled in the art, it can be understood that the embodiments can be changed, modified, replaced and changed in various ways without departing from the principles and spirits of the utility model, and the scope of the utility model is defined by the appended claims and its equivalents.
