[0017] Please refer to Figure 1 The embodiment of the present application provides a lubricating oil path control system of an air compressor, which comprises a compressor host 1, an oil-gas bucket 2, a first temperature control valve 3, a second temperature control valve 4, a first oil cooler 5 and a second oil cooler 6. The air outlet of the compressor host 1 is communicated to the air inlet of the oil-gas bucket 2, so as to separate oil and gas through the oil-gas bucket 2.
[0018] The first temperature control valve 3 and the second temperature control valve 4 are both provided with a first oil inlet, a second oil inlet, a first oil outlet and a second oil outlet. The first oil inlet of the first temperature control valve 3 is communicated to the oil outlet of the oil-gas bucket 2, and the first oil outlet of the first temperature control valve 3 is communicated to the oil inlet of the first oil cooler 5. The second oil inlet of the first temperature control valve 3 is communicated to the oil outlet of the first oil cooler 5, and the second oil outlet of the first temperature control valve 3 is communicated to the oil return port of the compressor host 1.
[0019] The first oil inlet of the second temperature control valve 4 is communicated to the oil outlet of the oil-gas bucket 2, and the first oil outlet of the second temperature control valve 4 is respectively communicated to the oil inlets of the first oil cooler 5 and the second oil cooler 6. The second oil inlets of the first oil cooler 5 and the second oil cooler 6 are respectively communicated to the oil outlet of the second temperature control valve 4, and the second oil outlet of the second temperature control valve 4 is communicated to the oil return port of the compressor host 1. Specifically, the oil filter 7 is arranged at the front end of the oil return port of the compressor host 1, and the second oil outlets of the first temperature control valve 3 and the second temperature control valve 4 are both communicated to the oil filter 7.
[0020] The first control valve 8 is arranged between the first oil inlet of the first temperature control valve 3 and the oil outlet of the oil-gas bucket 2. The second control valve 9 is arranged between the first oil inlet of the second temperature control valve 4 and the oil outlet of the oil-gas bucket 2, the third control valve 10 is arranged between the first oil outlet of the second temperature control valve 4 and the oil inlet of the first oil cooler 5, and the fourth control valve 11 is arranged between the second oil inlet of the second temperature control valve 4 and the oil outlet of the first oil cooler 5.
[0021] In winter low-temperature working condition: the first control valve 8 is opened, the second control valve 9, the third control valve 10 and the fourth control valve 11 are closed, the lubricating oil separated from the oil-gas bucket 2 enters the first temperature control valve 3 through the first control valve 8. When the temperature of the lubricating oil is lower than the set temperature of the first temperature control valve 3, the first inlet of the first temperature control valve 3 is communicated with the second outlet thereof, the low-temperature lubricating oil directly passes through the first temperature control valve 3 and the oil filter 7 to return to the compressor main machine 1 for lubrication, and then re-enters the oil-gas bucket 2 for circulation. When the temperature of the lubricating oil is greater than or equal to the set temperature of the first temperature control valve 3, the first inlet of the first temperature control valve 3 is communicated with the first outlet thereof, the second inlet is communicated with the second outlet, the lubricating oil passes through the first temperature control valve 3 to enter the first oil cooler 5 for heat exchange and cooling, and then passes through the first temperature control valve 3 and the oil filter 7 to return to the compressor main machine 1 for lubrication, and then re-enters the oil-gas bucket 2 for circulation. In this working condition, the lubricating oil only passes through one oil cooler for partial heat exchange.
[0022] In summer high-temperature working condition: the first control valve 8 is closed, the second control valve 9, the third control valve 10 and the fourth control valve 11 are opened, the lubricating oil separated from the oil-gas bucket 2 enters the second temperature control valve 4 through the second control valve 9. When the temperature of the lubricating oil is lower than the set temperature of the second temperature control valve 4, the first inlet of the second temperature control valve 4 is communicated with the second outlet thereof, the low-temperature lubricating oil directly passes through the second temperature control valve 4 and the oil filter 7 to return to the compressor main machine 1 for lubrication, and then re-enters the oil-gas bucket 2 for circulation. When the temperature of the lubricating oil is greater than or equal to the set temperature of the second temperature control valve 4, the first inlet of the second temperature control valve 4 is communicated with the first outlet thereof, the second inlet is communicated with the second outlet, the lubricating oil passes through the second temperature control valve 4 to enter the first oil cooler 5 and the second oil cooler 6 for heat exchange and cooling, and then passes through the second temperature control valve 4 and the oil filter 7 to return to the compressor main machine 1 for lubrication, and then re-enters the oil-gas bucket 2 for circulation. In this working condition, the two oil coolers are fully opened, the lubricating oil passes through the two oil coolers for heat exchange, and the cooling effect is best.
[0023] The first control valve 8, the second control valve 9, the third control valve 10 and the fourth control valve 11 are all ball valves or all electric control valves. When the first control valve 8, the second control valve 9, the third control valve 10 and the fourth control valve 11 are all ball valves, manual switching of different working conditions can be realized by manual control; when the first control valve 8, the second control valve 9, the third control valve 10 and the fourth control valve 11 are all electric control valves, automatic switching of different working conditions can be realized by an automatic control system.
