TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a content volume ratio adjusting mechanism of screw compressor relates to screw compressor technical field. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the screw compressor, the content volume ratio (Vi for short) refers to the ratio of the volume of the compressor suction and the volume at the end of compression. The content volume ratio is an important parameter in the operation of the compressor, which determines the degree of gas compression. Different application conditions often require different content volume ratios, and appropriate content volume ratios can avoid inefficient operation of the compressor. When the content volume ratio does not match the actual working condition, it may increase the load of the compressor and consume additional compression power. Adjusting the content volume ratio according to different working conditions is the key to improving the energy efficiency of the screw compressor. The content volume ratio is usually adjusted by a slide valve adjusting mechanism, which uses the slide valve to move along the axial direction of the screw to change the position of the radial exhaust port to adjust the content volume ratio to adapt to different operating conditions and optimize the energy efficiency of the compressor under different working conditions.
[0003] Although the slide valve adjusting mechanism improves the energy efficiency of the screw compressor significantly, the existing screw compressor slide valve adjusting mechanism is usually arranged in series with the load adjusting mechanism, as shown in Figure 1 For the series arrangement, the Vi adjusting mode is to use the Vi slide valve to displace along the axial direction of the rotor. When the compressor is in a full load state, the Vi slide valve and the capacity slide valve end face are in close contact. At this time, due to being blocked by the capacity slide valve, the Vi slide valve cannot be further moved in the axial direction, i.e. Vi adjustment cannot be performed, and usually the capacity slide valve needs to be moved to the left side to reduce the load position to the lowest to adjust Vi. This series arrangement occupies a large axial space, and is not suitable for some models of compressors.
[0004] In summary, the above arrangement needs to reduce the load position to the lowest to adjust Vi, and cannot directly adjust Vi when the compressor is in a full load operating state. This arrangement occupies a large space, has high processing cost, and for some compressors, the slide valve adjusting mechanism is not suitable due to the limitation of the structural space. SUMMARY

[0027] The reciprocating movement of the sliding block changes the geometric shape of the exhaust port. When the sliding block moves towards the exhaust port and blocks part of the original exhaust port, the exhaust port becomes smaller, i.e., the geometric shape area becomes smaller. When the sliding block moves away from the exhaust port, the exhaust port becomes larger, i.e., the geometric shape area becomes larger, and the blocked part is opened. Therefore, the reciprocating movement of the sliding block changes the geometric shape of the exhaust port.
[0028] In the utility model embodiment, the housing is provided with a housing notch 4, the sliding block is embedded in the housing notch and slides, the front end of the sliding block extends out of the housing notch and is aligned with the circumferential side of the exhaust port, and the rear end of the sliding block is connected with the driving assembly.
[0029] In the utility model embodiment, the driving assembly is an oil cylinder 5.
[0030] In the utility model embodiment, the oil cylinder comprises an oil cylinder body 6, an oil cylinder end cover 7, a piston 8 and a piston rod 9. The oil cylinder body is screwed and locked on the housing and is provided with an O-shaped ring 10 between the housing.

The piston rod is screwed and locked on the piston and is screwed and fastened at the rear end of the sliding block after penetrating out of the oil cylinder body. The piston rod is provided with an O-shaped ring, a Gley ring and a wear ring between the oil cylinder body.
[0031] In the utility model embodiment, a pin shaft limiting assembly is arranged between the housing notch and the sliding block.

[0033] In the utility model embodiment, the pin shaft limiting assembly comprises a pin body 13 fixedly connected to the front part of the sliding block. A straight groove 14 extending along the sliding direction of the sliding block is formed on the inner groove wall of the housing notch. The outer end of the pin body is embedded in the straight groove.
[0034] In the embodiment of the utility model, the support and alignment assembly comprises a limiting sleeve 15 between the shell notch and the vertical gap of the sliding block, one end of the limiting sleeve is connected with a spring 16, and the other end is in surface contact with the sliding block, so that the sliding block is surface supported by the limiting sleeve during sliding, and the stability is improved.

[0036] In the embodiment of the utility model, the number of the sliding blocks is two, and the two sliding blocks are symmetrically arranged on the shell on both sides of the exhaust port.
[0037] In the embodiment of the utility model, the working principle of the content volume ratio adjusting mechanism of the screw compressor is as follows:
[0038] The shell notch is used for accommodating the sliding block and providing the working space required for the movement of the sliding block. The oil cylinder body and the oil cylinder end cover are both provided with oil ports, the injection and discharge of oil are controlled by a valve 19, the oil pressure difference is generated in the compressor by the injection and discharge of oil, the piston is pushed under the action of the oil pressure difference, the movement of the piston drives the sliding block to slide along the shell notch because the piston, the piston rod and the sliding block are connected with each other, the geometric shape of the passage of the exhaust port is determined according to the relative position between the two ends of the two sliding blocks, the compression stroke of the gas in the screw is changed, and then the content volume ratio is changed. When the oil port of the oil cylinder end cover is injected and the oil port of the oil cylinder body is discharged, the sliding block slides along the shell notch in the direction close to the exhaust port, and the content volume ratio increases; when the oil port of the oil cylinder end cover is discharged and the oil port of the oil cylinder body is injected, the sliding block slides along the shell notch in the direction away from the exhaust port, and the content volume ratio decreases. Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the two oil cylinders of the two sliding blocks are connected to the same valve, the injection pipelines 20 of the two oil cylinders are communicated with each other, the discharge pipelines 21 of the two oil cylinders are communicated with each other, and the two sliding blocks are realized to be close to or away from the exhaust port together.
