[0002] A rotary compressor typically includes a compression mechanism and a motor housed within a casing. The compression mechanism includes a cylinder, a main bearing, a secondary bearing, and a muffler. The main bearing and secondary bearing are located on opposite sides of the cylinder. The bearing closer to the motor side is defined as the main bearing, and the bearing farther from the motor side is defined as the secondary bearing. The crankshaft includes a main shaft section, an eccentric section, and a secondary shaft section. The section closer to the motor side is defined as the main shaft section. The crankshaft passes through the secondary bearing, the cylinder, and the main bearing axially, and the rotor drives the crankshaft to rotate.

[0038] Compressor 100, crankshaft 10, crankshaft 10 axis 10A, main shaft section 11, auxiliary shaft section 12, center hole 1201, first thrust surface 1202, shaft part 121, ball 122, cylindrical part 1221, spherical part 1222, eccentric part 13, auxiliary bearing 20, mating hole 201, second thrust surface 202, bearing body 21, thrust seat 22, washer 23, muffler 24, main bearing 30. Detailed Implementation

[0039] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0040] Combination Figures 1 to 11 The crankshaft assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a crankshaft 10 and a secondary bearing 20.

[0041] Specifically, the crankshaft 10 has a secondary shaft section 12, the end face of which is provided with a first thrust surface 1202; the secondary bearing 20 has a mating hole 201 and a second thrust surface 202, the secondary shaft section 12 passes through the mating hole 201, and the first thrust surface 1202 and the second thrust surface 202 abut against each other, wherein, Figure 1The crankshaft 10 and the auxiliary bearing 20 are separated to facilitate the display of the first thrust surface 1202 and the second thrust surface 202. The crankshaft assembly can achieve thrust resistance by using the first thrust surface 1202 provided on the end face of the auxiliary shaft section 12 to cooperate with the second thrust surface 202 of the auxiliary bearing 20. That is, the crankshaft 10 is used for end thrust resistance, which eliminates the need to set a thrust resistance structure on the end face of the eccentric part 13, or the thrust resistance area of ​​the thrust resistance structure set on the end face of the eccentric part 13 can be designed to be very small. Furthermore, the thrust area is not affected by whether the auxiliary bearing 20 has an annular groove, so the thrust surface can be further reduced. This can eliminate or reduce the influence of the thrust surface structure of the crankshaft 10 on the size of the weight reduction balance hole, thereby allowing the weight reduction balance hole provided on the eccentric part 13 of the crankshaft 10 to be correspondingly larger. This maximizes the reduction of the eccentric mass of the crankshaft 10 while keeping the eccentricity of the crankshaft 10 constant, which helps to reduce the weight of the balance block in the compressor 100. This reduces the vibration and noise of the compressor 100 during operation, lowers the material cost of the balance block, improves the energy efficiency of the compressor 100, reduces the wear between the crankshaft 10 and the bearing, and achieves low cost, high energy efficiency and high reliability of the compressor 100.

[0042] Furthermore, the first thrust surface 1202 is at least partially arc-shaped, which may include, but is not limited to: the entire surface of the first thrust surface 1202 being arc-shaped; a portion of the first thrust surface 1202 being arc-shaped, and another portion being non-arc-shaped, etc. During the relative movement of the first thrust surface 1202 and the second thrust surface 202, the arc-shaped surface can be used to facilitate easier alignment of the secondary shaft section 12 and reduce the influence of the eccentric inertial force of the crankshaft 10, thereby improving the stability of the relative movement between the crankshaft 10 and the secondary bearing 20.

[0043] According to the embodiment of the present invention, the crankshaft assembly can improve the stopping effect of the first thrust surface 1202 and the second thrust surface 202, realize the stable support of the secondary bearing 20 on the secondary shaft section 12, so as to improve the stability of the crankshaft 10 during rotation, reduce the influence of the eccentric inertial force of the crankshaft 10, and improve the stability of the compressor 100 during operation. In addition, the arc-shaped structure of the first thrust surface 1202 can improve the lubrication effect between the first thrust surface 1202 and the second thrust surface 202, and reduce frictional power consumption.

[0044] To achieve mutual thrust stability between the first thrust surface 1202 and the second thrust surface 202, the first thrust surface 1202 can be configured as an arc-shaped surface with a central outward convexity, i.e., the arc-shaped surface protrudes in the middle along the axis 10A of the secondary shaft segment 12 in a direction away from the mating hole 201; alternatively, the first thrust surface 1202 can be configured as an arc-shaped surface with a central concave indentation, i.e., the arc-shaped surface protrudes in the middle along the axis 10A of the secondary shaft segment 12 in a direction towards the interior of the mating hole 201. Furthermore, the first thrust surface 1202 can also be configured as a flat surface or a wavy surface, etc., and the second thrust surface 202 can be configured as a surface adapted to the first thrust surface 1202.

[0045] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 6 In some embodiments, the first thrust surface 1202 is configured as an arc-shaped surface with a central convexity. This thrust engagement between the first thrust surface 1202 and the second thrust surface 202 further improves the stability of the connection between the crankshaft 10 and the auxiliary bearing 20. Alternatively, the second thrust surface 202 can be configured as an arc shape adapted to the first thrust surface 1202. The curvature of the second thrust surface 202 can be different from or the same as that of the first thrust surface 1202. For example, if the first thrust surface 1202 is an arc-shaped surface with a central convexity, the second thrust surface 202 can also be configured as an arc-shaped surface with a central convexity. Of course, the second thrust surface 202 can also be a plane.

[0046] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first thrust surface 1202 is a surface of revolution with the axis 10A of the crankshaft 10 as its central axis, and at least a portion of the generatrix of the surface of revolution forms an angle of less than 90° with the axis 10A. The first thrust surface 1202 cooperates with the second thrust surface 202. During the rotation of the secondary shaft section 12 relative to the secondary bearing 20, the surface of revolution facilitates the alignment of the crankshaft 10 and improves the stability of the cooperation between the first thrust surface 1202 and the second thrust surface 202. The generatrix of the surface of revolution can be a straight line segment, an arc segment, or a combination of straight and arc segments, etc.

[0047] The crankshaft 10 in this invention may include various structural forms, including but not limited to the following embodiments.

[0048] Implementation Method 1

[0049] like Figures 2 to 5 In some embodiments, the secondary shaft section 12 includes a shaft portion 121 and balls 122, with the balls 122 connected to the end of the shaft portion 121, and a first thrust surface 1202 disposed on the balls 122. This simplifies the manufacturing process of the crankshaft 10, improves the production efficiency of the secondary shaft section 12, and also reduces the processing cost of the crankshaft 10.

[0050] Combination Figures 3 to 5The ball bearing 122 includes a cylindrical portion 1221 and a spherical portion 1222. The shaft portion 121 may have a central hole 1201, through which the cylindrical portion 1221 passes. The spherical portion 1222 connects to the cylindrical portion 1221 and is located on the outer side of the end face of the shaft portion 121. A first thrust surface 1202 is located on the side of the spherical portion 1222 facing away from the shaft portion 121. The engagement between the cylindrical portion 1221 and the central hole 1201 enables a stable connection between the ball bearing 122 and the shaft portion 121, improving the connection efficiency and stability of the ball bearing 122 and the shaft portion 121.

[0051] like Figure 5 The dimension h of the cylindrical portion 1221 along the length of the shaft portion 121 satisfies the following condition: 1mm ≤ h ≤ R1. This allows the cylindrical portion 1221 and the shaft portion 121 to have an appropriate engagement length, thereby improving the strength and stability of the connection structure between them, preventing the balls 122 from falling off the shaft portion 121 during use, and facilitating a stable fit between the crankshaft 10 and the auxiliary shaft section 12. Furthermore, it avoids the assembly efficiency between the shaft portion 121 and the balls 122 being affected by an excessively large cylindrical portion 1221, and reduces the material consumption and processing costs of the crankshaft assembly. The dimension h of the cylindrical portion 1221 along the length of the shaft portion 121 can be 1 mm, 2 mm, etc., or it can be 0.1×R1, 0.25×R1, 0.35×R1, 0.5×R1, 0.7×R1, 0.8×R1, or R1, etc.

[0052] like Figure 3 In some embodiments, the radius R2 of the central hole 1201, the outer circumferential diameter D2 of the shaft portion 121, and the outer circumferential diameter D1 of the spherical surface portion 1222 satisfy the following condition: 2*R2<D1≤D2. Furthermore, in the projection along the axis 10A of the shaft portion 121, the outer circumferential surface of the spherical surface portion 1222 does not protrude beyond the outer circumference of the shaft portion 121 and is located outside the central hole 1201. The spherical part 1222 protrudes from the central hole 1201. After the shaft 121 and the ball 122 are assembled, the cylindrical part 1221 is located in the central hole 1201, and the spherical part 1222 is positioned on the outer side of the end face of the shaft 121. This facilitates stable thrusting between the spherical part 1222 and the second thrust part. In addition, the spherical part 1222 can also abut against the end face of the shaft 121, which facilitates stable and rapid connection between the ball 122 and the shaft 121, avoiding the problem that the ball 122 is easy to fall off or enter the central hole 1201.

[0053] Optionally, in some examples, the cylindrical portion 1221 is clearance-fitted with the central hole 1201. Alternatively, the cylindrical portion 1221 can also be configured to have an interference fit or a helical fit with the central hole 1201, which facilitates a stable connection between the cylindrical portion 1221 and the shaft portion 121, improving the stable connection between the shaft portion 121 and the ball bearing 122. In other embodiments, the cylindrical portion 1221 is helically fitted with the central hole 1201, and the helical direction of the cylindrical portion 1221 during installation is opposite to the rotational direction of the crankshaft 10 during operation. The helical fit enables a stable connection between the cylindrical portion 1221 and the shaft portion 121, improving assembly efficiency and post-assembly stability. Furthermore, by restricting the helical direction, the ball bearing 122 can be prevented from falling off during crankshaft 10 rotation, making the connection between the ball bearing 122 and the shaft portion 121 more stable.

[0054] like Figure 3 In some embodiments, the cross-section of the arc-shaped surface passing through the axis 10A of the secondary shaft segment 12 is a circular arc. The angle θ between the line connecting the outermost point of the first thrust surface 1202 and the center of the circular arc and the axis 10A of the secondary shaft segment 12 satisfies: 0° < θ < 180°. For example, the angle θ can be set to 1°, 30°, 45°, 50°, 58°, 60°, 90°, 120°, or 175°, etc. This optimizes the structure of the first thrust surface 1202, facilitates stable thrusting by the first thrust surface 1202 and the second thrust surface 202, and improves the stability of the mating structure between the crankshaft 10 and the secondary bearing 20.

[0055] In some embodiments, the cross-section of the arc-shaped surface passing through the axis 10A of the secondary shaft segment 12 is a circular arc. The angle θ between the line connecting the outermost point of the first thrust surface 1202 and the center of the circular arc and the axis 10A of the secondary shaft segment 12 satisfies: arcsin(R2 / R1) < θ < 90°, where R1 is the radius of the circular arc and R2 is the radius of the central hole 1201 inside the secondary shaft segment 12. This can further improve the fit stability between the first thrust surface 1202 and the second thrust surface 202. It facilitates the stable thrust of the secondary bearing 20 on the secondary shaft segment 12 and facilitates the stable rotation of the crankshaft 10 relative to the secondary bearing 20.

[0056] Implementation Method 2

[0057] like Figure 6 and Figure 7In some embodiments, the secondary shaft section 12 includes a shaft portion 121 and a ball bearing 122. The shaft portion 121 has a central hole 1201, and the ball bearing 122 is a sphere mounted at the end of the shaft portion 121. The spherical surface of the ball bearing 122 is configured as a first thrust surface 1202. When the secondary shaft section 12 mates with the secondary bearing 20, the shaft portion 121 passes through the mating hole 201, and the ball bearing 122 is located at the end of the shaft portion 121. The ball bearing 122 is positioned between the shaft portion 121 and the secondary bearing 20 along the axis 10A of the shaft portion 121, wherein the ball bearing 122 can slidably engage with the end of the secondary shaft section 12; or, the ball bearing 122 can slidably engage with the second thrust surface 202. Alternatively, the ball bearing 122 can be fixedly connected to the end of the secondary shaft section 12.

[0058] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 The diameter D3 of the ball bearing 122 satisfies: 2*R2<D3<D2, where R2 is the radius of the central hole 1201 and D2 is the diameter of the outer circumferential surface of the shaft portion 121. After the shaft portion 121 and the ball bearing 122 are assembled, the ball bearing 122 is positioned at the end of the central hole 1201, with a portion of the ball bearing 122 located outside the end face of the shaft portion 121. This facilitates stable thrusting between the ball bearing 122 and the second thrust stop. In addition, the ball bearing 122 can also abut against the end face of the shaft portion 121, enabling a stable and rapid connection between the ball bearing 122 and the shaft portion 121, thus preventing the ball bearing 122 from easily falling off or entering the central hole 1201.

[0059] like Figure 6 Optionally, the portion of the center hole 1201 that connects with the end face of the shaft 121 is configured as a concave arc surface. This concave arc surface is a rotating surface formed by rotating about the axis 10A of the shaft 121. At least a portion of the generatrix of this rotating surface forms an angle β less than 90° with the axis 10A of the shaft 121. The concave arc surface mates with the ball bearing 122. This improves the stability of the fit between the ball bearing 122 and the shaft 121, facilitating the alignment of the shaft 121. The first thrust surface 1202 mates with the second thrust surface 202. During the rotation of the secondary shaft section 12 relative to the secondary bearing 20, the rotating surface facilitates the alignment of the crankshaft 10 and improves the stability of the fit between the first thrust surface 1202 and the second thrust surface 202. The generatrix of the rotating surface can be a straight line segment, an arc segment, or a combination of straight and arc segments.

[0060] Implementation Method 3

[0061] The crankshaft 10 and the first thrust surface 1202 are integrally machined. Integrating the first thrust surface 1202 into the crankshaft 10 can simplify the production and processing efficiency and stability of the crankshaft 10. In addition, it can also simplify the structure of the crankshaft 10. When the first thrust surface 1202 and the second thrust surface 202 are engaged, it can facilitate the alignment of the crankshaft 10.

[0062] like Figures 8 to 11 In some embodiments, the secondary bearing 20 includes a bearing body 21 and a thrust seat 22. A mating hole 201 is provided in the bearing body 21, the thrust seat 22 is connected to the bearing body 21, and a second thrust surface 202 is provided in the thrust seat 22 and is opposite to the mating hole 201.

[0063] The assembly method of the thrust seat 22 and the bearing body 21 may include, but is not limited to, the following embodiments.

[0064] Implementation Method 1

[0065] like Figures 8 to 10 The auxiliary bearing 20 includes a bearing body 21 and a thrust seat 22. The bearing body 21 has a first central hole 1201 and a second central hole 1201. The first central hole 1201 is used to pass through and support the auxiliary shaft section 12 of the crankshaft 10 of the compressor 100. The first central hole 1201 and the second central hole 1201 are distributed along the axis 10A of the auxiliary bearing 20. The thrust seat 22 is connected to the bearing body 21. The thrust seat 22 has a positioning part provided in the second central hole 1201. The thrust seat 22 is used to abut against the end face of the auxiliary shaft section 12.

[0066] The thrust seat 22 can be connected to the bearing body 21 by means of threaded fit, interference fit or snap-fit ​​connection. A positioning element can be set on the peripheral wall of the second center hole 1201 to position the thrust part. A washer 23 or a silencer 24 can also be set to position the thrust seat 22.

[0067] Implementation Method 2

[0068] like Figure 11 The auxiliary bearing 20 includes a bearing body 21 and a thrust seat 22. The bearing body 21 has a central hole 1201 for passing through and supporting the auxiliary shaft section 12. The side wall of the bearing body 21 is provided with a positioning structure, which is located outside the central hole 1201. The thrust seat 22 includes a thrust portion and a positioning portion connecting the thrust portion. The thrust portion has a second thrust surface 202 corresponding to the central hole 1201 to abut against the end face of the auxiliary shaft section 12. The positioning portion and the positioning structure cooperate to connect the thrust seat 22 to the bearing body 21.

[0069] A positioning structure is located on the outer peripheral surface of the bearing body 21, and a positioning part is located on the outer side wall of the bearing body 21 and connected to the positioning structure. The positioning structure includes a groove, and the positioning part includes a main body and a hook. The main body is located on the outer side wall of the bearing body 21, and the hook protrudes from the inner side of the main body and engages with the groove. The positioning part can be fitted onto the outer peripheral wall of the bearing body 21.

[0070] Implementation Method 3

[0071] The auxiliary bearing 20 includes a bearing body 21 and a thrust seat 22, with the bearing body 21 and the thrust seat 22 being an integral structure.

[0072] In some embodiments, the hardness HR of the first thrust surface 1202 and / or the second thrust surface 202 satisfies: HR > 20HRC. This enables a stable fit between the first thrust surface 1202 and the second thrust surface 202, and reduces wear on the first thrust surface 1202 and the second thrust surface 202 during the rotation of the crankshaft 10 relative to the auxiliary bearing 20, thereby extending the service life of the crankshaft assembly.

[0073] The crankshaft assembly described above can both ensure the rigidity of the crankshaft 10 and maximize the size of the weight-reducing balance hole. Of course, the values ​​mentioned above are not limited to the specific ranges described, and can be reasonably designed and adjusted according to parameters such as the size of the compressor 100. In addition, the compressor 100 can have a counterweight balance hole, which can be located on the end face of the eccentric portion 13 of the crankshaft 10. The cross-section of the weight-reducing balance hole is formed by one or more non-connected circles with the same or different radii. While ensuring the rigidity of the eccentric portion 13 of the crankshaft 10, the weight-reducing balance hole can be composed of one or more circular holes with equal or different diameters. Preferably, the weight-reducing balance hole is composed of multiple circular holes with different diameters to disrupt the structural symmetry of the eccentric portion 13, thereby better reducing the eccentric inertial force and improving the structural rigidity of the eccentric portion 13.

[0074] Preferably, the weight-reducing balancing hole is located on the end face of the eccentric portion 13. The cross-section of the weight-reducing balancing hole is crescent-shaped, with the center of the first arc of the crescent shape coinciding with the axis of the eccentric portion 13, and the center of the second arc of the crescent shape coinciding with the central axis 10A of the main shaft segment 11. While ensuring the rigidity of the eccentric portion 13 of the crankshaft 10, the size of the weight-reducing balancing hole can be further increased, thereby further reducing the eccentric mass of the crankshaft 10, thus better reducing the eccentric inertial force, and further facilitating the reduction of the weight of the balance block in the compressor 100.

[0075] The radius of the crescent-shaped second arc is equal to the radius of the secondary shaft segment 12, so as to maximize the increase in the size of the weight reduction balance hole, thereby maximizing the reduction of the eccentric mass of the crankshaft 10.

[0076] Preferably, the eccentric portion 13 has a second end face facing the main shaft section 11, and the weight reduction balancing hole is a through hole penetrating the first end face and the second end face. Designing the weight reduction balancing hole as a through hole penetrating the eccentric portion 13 along the axial direction can better reduce the eccentric mass of the crankshaft 10 along the entire axial direction, thereby better reducing the eccentric inertial force.
