Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of air compressor technology and relates to a new type of noise-reducing oil-free compressor. Background Technology

[0002] The working principle of oil-free air compressors can be divided into several common forms according to their structural type, combining different compression mechanisms and characteristics, such as piston type and screw type. However, in actual use, because the piston type has to perform reciprocating motion, its noise is relatively large, thus failing to meet the usage requirements. The screw type operates by two screws working together, and its noise is relatively lower than that of the piston type. However, driving the screw type requires multiple gears to rotate. If lubrication is not added in time during long-term gear meshing, it is easy to cause gear wear, which will cause the oil-free machine to produce noise after long-term operation, thus failing to meet the usage requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in the prior art by providing an oil-free machine that can reduce wear and noise.

[0004] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: A novel noise-reducing oil-free machine includes an oil-free machine body and a screw assembly disposed on and cooperating with the oil-free machine body. The screw assembly comprises a housing connected to the oil-free machine body and having a cavity, a screw unit disposed within the housing, and a lubrication unit disposed within the housing for circulating lubricating oil and lubricating the screw unit. The housing contains two partition plates connected to and dividing the cavity into a front cavity, a middle cavity, and a rear-front cavity. The screw unit includes two cooperating compression screws disposed within the middle cavity and several transmission teeth disposed on the compression screws and driving the compression screws to move. Both ends of the compression screws are connected to the partition plates via mechanical seals. The several transmission teeth are disposed on corresponding compression screws, and the compression screws cause the transmission teeth to be located within the front or rear cavity. The lubrication unit is located directly above the transmission teeth.

[0005] In the aforementioned novel noise-reducing oil-free machine, the housing includes a lower housing and an upper housing connected to the lower housing, and the lubrication unit is disposed on the upper housing and connected to it.

[0006] In the aforementioned novel noise-reducing oil-free machine, the lubrication unit includes a lubrication pipe, a lubrication pump, and an oil outlet connector. The lubrication pump is mounted on and connected to the main body of the oil-free machine. The housing has an installation hole for the lubrication pipe to extend into the pump body, through which the lubrication pipe is connected to the housing. The oil outlet connector is mounted on the lubrication pipe, and through the lubrication pipe, the oil outlet connector is located at the meshing point of the transmission gear.

[0007] In the aforementioned novel noise-reducing oil-free machine, the housing has a cavity that communicates with the front and rear cavities, and the lower end face of the housing located in the cavity is provided with a connecting pipe that facilitates the discharge of lubricating fluid and cooperates with the lubrication pump to form a circulation.

[0008] In the aforementioned novel noise-reducing oil-free machine, a one-way valve connected to the oil outlet of the oil outlet connector is provided.

[0009] Compared with existing technologies, this new noise-reducing oil-free machine reduces wear and noise by setting up a lubrication unit to circulate lubrication at the meshing points of the transmission gears. Attached Figure Description

[0013] like Figure 1As shown, this novel oil-free noise reduction generator includes an oil-free generator body and a screw assembly disposed on and cooperating with the oil-free generator body. The screw assembly includes a housing 1 connected to the oil-free generator body and having a cavity, a screw unit 2 disposed within the housing 1, and a lubrication unit disposed within the housing 1 for circulating lubricating oil and lubricating the screw unit 2. The housing 1 has two partition plates 3 located within the cavity and connected to it, dividing the cavity into a front cavity, a middle cavity, and a rear-front cavity. The screw unit 2 includes two cooperating compression screws disposed within the middle cavity and several transmission teeth 4 disposed on corresponding compression screws and driving the compression screws through meshing. Both ends of the compression screws are connected to the partition plates 3 via mechanical seals. Several transmission teeth 4 are disposed on corresponding compression screws, and the compression screws cause the transmission teeth 4 to be located within the front or rear cavity. The lubrication unit is located directly above the transmission teeth 4. The number of transmission teeth 4 can be two or four. When there are two, they are disposed at one end of the compression screw. The transmission gear 4 is located in the front or rear cavity. When there are four, they are located at both ends of the compression screw, with the four transmission gears 4 respectively located in the front and rear cavities. The lubrication unit includes a lubrication pipe 5, a lubrication pump, and an oil outlet connector 6. The lubrication pump is mounted on and connected to the oilless machine body.
