DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] The utility model is used for lubricating oil storage tank structure of compressor, including compressor housing 5, be located in the crankshaft 3, connecting rod 4 and piston 6 of compressor housing, the bottom of compressor housing is equipped with the lubricating oil storage tank 1 of having oil storage cavity 7, the lower part of crankshaft 3 enters oil storage cavity 7, be equipped with with the second lubricating oil passage 9 of first lubricating oil passage 8 in the crankshaft body and oil storage cavity 7 intercommunication in the lubricating oil storage tank, the second lubricating oil passage 9 has oil inlet 91 and oil return 92, the above-mentioned content is prior art, here do not make tedious.
[0027] The specific technical scheme contents of the application are as follows: the wave breaker 2 is arranged at the position higher than the oil level and lower than the lower end of the crankshaft in the oil storage cavity 7, the wave breaker can be an annular plate with a thickness of 0.3-3 cm, the outer peripheral wall of the wave breaker abuts against the inner peripheral wall of the oil storage cavity, and the center of the wave breaker has a through hole 21.
[0028] When the lubricating oil is agitated due to jolt, the splashed lubricating oil is blocked by the wave breaker, the lubricating oil level is not prone to large fluctuation, the oil inlet of the lubricating oil system (the oil inlet 91 of the second lubricating oil passage) can always be kept in the lubricating oil, so as to ensure sufficient oil supply of the lubricating system (including the crankshaft, the connecting rod, etc.), which is conducive to ensuring that the lubricating system of the compressor is fully lubricated by oil, and reducing the risk of damage of the relative moving parts of the crankshaft, the connecting rod, etc.
[0029] The shape of the through hole 21 can be circular, oval, rectangular, or the like; or the outer peripheral wall of the wave elimination ring and the peripheral wall surface of the through hole are equidistant along the entire circumference of the wave elimination ring, that is, the value of D in the figure is fixed, so that the shape of the through hole is the same as the inner peripheral wall of the oil storage cavity. This design can effectively reduce the oil level fluctuation caused by shaking in various horizontal directions.
[0030] The outer peripheral wall of the wave elimination ring and the inner peripheral wall of the oil storage cavity can be fixed by welding, riveting, or integrated molding.
[0031] In addition, for the piston compressor, when the piston 6 reciprocates in the cylinder sleeve body 10, the temperature and pressure in the cylinder sleeve body will undergo drastic alternating changes. The sharply changing temperature and pressure are easy to cause the rupture of the gas valve (exhaust valve or suction valve) in the cylinder sleeve body, causing the piston ring to be stuck. Therefore, in order to stabilize the temperature and pressure state of the gas in the cylinder, prevent the damage of the compressor valve and the piston ring, the cylinder sleeve body 10 is sleeved in the compressor shell 5, the cylinder sleeve body has a piston cavity 11 for guiding the lifting movement of the piston, the compressor shell is provided with a valve plate 12 having an exhaust valve A and a suction valve B, the lower surface of the valve plate abuts against the piston cavity 11, and the inner wall surface 14 of the cylinder sleeve port, the outer wall surface of the piston and the end surface of the valve plate form a buffer cavity 13 when the piston 6 in the cylinder sleeve body moves to the top dead center position.
[0032] The above-mentioned buffer cavity is arranged along the entire circumferential direction of the cylinder sleeve body, that is, the buffer cavity 8 extends to the entire circumference of the cylinder sleeve body, thereby facilitating the diffusion of the gas.
[0033] The wall surface (i.e. the inner wall surface 14) of the buffer cavity is a horn-shaped conical surface located at the port of the cylinder sleeve body and abutting against the wall surface of the piston cavity, the horn-shaped conical surface forms an angle of 50-65 degrees with the axis of the piston cavity. Of course, the wall surface (i.e. the inner wall surface 14) of the buffer cavity can also be an arc surface, a spherical surface or a stepped surface (such as shown in Figure 7 、 8 ).
[0034] The outer peripheral wall of the cylinder sleeve body is stepped and is integrated with the compressor shell. The cylinder sleeve body and the compressor shell 5 can be fixed by interference fit.
[0035] When the piston compressor is in operation, the piston reciprocates and lifts in the cylinder liner body, when the piston moves to the top dead center, the gas is compressed in the piston cavity to form high-temperature and high-pressure gas, the high-temperature and high-pressure of the compressor will be discharged from the exhaust valve, due to the existence of the buffer cavity of the cylinder liner body port, part of the high-temperature and high-pressure gas will not be completely discharged and stored in the buffer cavity of the cylinder liner body port; when the piston moves to the bottom dead center, the low-temperature and low-pressure gas enters the inside of the cylinder liner body (i.e. the piston cavity) from the suction valve, at this time, the high-temperature and high-pressure gas stored in the buffer cavity mixes with the newly entered low-temperature and low-pressure gas, the pressure and temperature of the newly entered gas are compensated, so as to achieve the purpose of stabilizing the temperature and pressure in the cylinder, thereby being beneficial to preventing the damage of the compressor valve and the piston ring and reducing the economic loss.
[0036] The preferred embodiments of the utility model are described above only, and are not used for limiting the utility model, for the person skilled in the art, the utility model can have various changes and changes.
