[0030] Disclosed are devices, systems and methods for a valve reed and a compressor including a valve reed, which can be employed by a vehicle.

[0031] Conventionally, during the opening and closing process of the valve reeds, there are problems such as a slow response of the valve reeds, a gradual change in a flow area of the valve port, and a small flow area. In addition, in a conventional compressor, for instance, a suction valve reed and a discharge valve reed are provided separately from each other, which results in a large number of parts, inconvenience in assembly and disassembly, and a high cost. Thus, a multifunctional, simplified, and low cost valve reed is needed to overcome the problems and challenges with conventional valve reeds and compressors using the like.

[0032] A valve reed according to example embodiments of the present technology is described below in conjunction with the drawings.

[0033] FIGS. 1 to 20 show example embodiments of a valve reed 8 according to some example embodiments of the present technology. As depicted in FIG. 1, the valve reed 8 includes a plate body 81a. The plate body 81a defines a slit 82a, and the slit 82a extends through the plate body 81a along a thickness direction of the plate body 81a. The slit 82a divides the plate body 81a into a central sealing portion 831a, a mounting portion 84a, a peripheral sealing portion 832a, a plurality of first swing arms 851a, and a plurality of second swing arms 852a. The central sealing portion 831a, the mounting portion 84a, and the peripheral sealing portion 832a are concentric with each other. That is, a center of the central sealing portion 831a, a center of the mounting portion 84a, and a center of the peripheral sealing portion 832a coincide. The mounting portion 84a surrounds the central sealing portion 831a, and the peripheral sealing portion 832a surrounds the mounting portion 84a.

[0034] Both the first swing arms 851a and the second swing arms 852a are elastic arms. The first swing arms 851a have a substantially constant width along a length of the first swing arms 851a, and the second swing arms 852a have a substantially constant width along a length of the second swing arms 852a. The first swing arms 851a are located between the peripheral sealing portion 832a and the mounting portion 84a. A first end of each first swing arm 851a is connected to the peripheral sealing portion 832a, and a second end of each first swing arm 851a is connected to the mounting portion 84a. The second swing arms 852a are located between the central sealing portion 831a and the mounting portion 84a. A first end of each second swing arm 852a is connected to the central sealing portion 831a, and a second end of each second swing arm 852a is connected to the mounting portion 84a.

[0035] When the number of the plurality of first swing arms 851a is even, the plurality of first swing arms 851a are arranged in pairs. That is, the plurality of first swing arms 851a are divided into at least one pair, and two swing arms in the same pair are centrally symmetric to each other with respect to the center of the central sealing portion 831a, that is, one first swing arm 851a coincides with another first swing arm 851a after rotating 180 degrees.

[0036] When the number of the plurality of first swing arms 851a is odd, the plurality of first swing arms 851a are uniformly arranged around the center of the central sealing portion 831a along a circumferential direction of the sealing portion 831a. For example, if the number of the plurality of first swing arms 851a is N, where N is an odd number, one of two adjacent first swing arms 851a coincides with the other of the two adjacent first swing arms 851a after a rotation of 360 / N degrees around the center of the central sealing portion 831a.

[0037] Similarly, when the number of the plurality of second swing arms 852a is even, the plurality of second swing arms 852a are arranged in pairs, and two swing arms in the same pair are centrally symmetric to each other with respect to the center of the central sealing portion 831a. When the number of the plurality of second swing arms 852a is odd, the plurality of second swing arms 852a are uniformly arranged around the center of the central sealing portion 831a along the circumferential direction of the central sealing portion 831a.

[0038] For various example embodiments of the valve reed in accordance with the present technology, the plurality of swing arms are either centrally symmetric to each other or uniformly arranged along the circumferential direction, which improves a stress uniformity of the central sealing portion and the peripheral sealing portion, and enhances the uniformity of the valve reed opening and closing a valve port.

[0039] In some examples, a thickness T of the plate body 81a may be greater than or equal to 0.1 mm and less than or equal to 0.5 mm, such as 0.1 mm, 0.2 mm, 0.3 mm, 0.4 mm, or 0.5 mm.

[0040] The valve reed 8 may be a metal sheet, such as a stainless-steel sheet or an alloy sheet. In some examples, the valve reed 8 may also be a non-metallic plate, such as a highly flexible resin plate.

[0041] A width of the slit 82a should ensure that during the use of the valve reed 8, there is no interference between the first swing arms 851a, the peripheral sealing portion 832a, and the mounting portion 84a, as well as between the second swing arms 852a, the central sealing portion 831a, and the mounting portion 84a. In some examples, the width of the slit 82a may be greater than or equal to 1 mm and less than or equal to 4 mm, and a width H of the swing arms may be greater than or equal to 1.3 mm and less than or equal to 5 mm. If the swing arms are too narrow, it will cause fatigue deformation of the valve reed 8 after being used for a period of time; if the swing arms are too wide, it will affect the sensitivity of the sealing portion in opening and closing the valve port. The slit 82a may be formed by stamping a metal sheet. In other words, the valve reed 8 is integrally formed by stamping a metal sheet.

[0042] In some examples, as shown in FIGS. 1-2, the mounting portion 84a defines a plurality of mounting holes 841a, and the plurality of mounting holes 841a are uniformly arranged around the center of the central sealing portion 831a along the circumferential direction of the central sealing portion 831a. At least part of the mounting holes 841a is arranged close to the second ends of the first swing arms 851a and the second ends of the second swing arms 852a. This ensures the sealing reliability of the valve reed 8, and avoids irreversible bending of a connecting portion between the mounting portions 84a after the first swing arms 851a and the second swing arms 852a operate for a period of time, as well as prevents the swing arms from shifting and affecting the sealing effect of the sealing portions.

[0043] As shown in FIGS. 4-13, when the valve reed 8 is mounted in a compressor 1001, the valve reed 8 may be fixed at the valve ports by a pressure plate 17 and screws. One of the central sealing portion 831a and the peripheral sealing portion 832a faces a suction valve port, while the other of the central sealing portion 831a and the peripheral sealing portion 832a faces a discharge valve port. The central sealing portion 831a and the peripheral sealing portion 832a open and close the corresponding valve ports through translational movement.

[0044] In some examples, a flange surrounding the valve port is provided at the valve port. An end face of the flange forms a sealing surface for tightly fitting with the central sealing portion 831a and the peripheral sealing portion 832a, improving the sealing effect of the sealing portions on the valve port.

[0045] For example, as compared with a conventional valve reed in the related arts, the example embodiments of the valve reed according to the present technology can have a uniform opening height, a larger flow area at the same opening height, a smooth air flow, a lower air resistance, and a higher response speed of the valve reed. In addition, the swing arms are centrally symmetric to each other or uniformly arranged, so that the valve reed is stressed uniformly, which improves the sensitivity of the valve reed in opening and closing, reduces the fatigue of the valve reed after being used for a period of time, and prolongs the service life of the valve reed.

[0046] In some embodiments in accordance with the present technology, the widths of the first swing arms and the second swing arms are substantially constant, further improving the stress uniformity of the valve reed and the uniformity of the valve port in opening and closing, and further enhancing the response speed and sensitivity of the valve reed.

[0047] The valve reed according to example embodiments of the present technology has both suction and discharge functions. The sealing portion configured to open and close the suction valve port and the sealing portion configured to open and close the discharge valve port are integrally designed, so that the valve reed has a compact structure, the number of parts is reduced, the convenience of assembly, disassembly, and maintenance of the valve reed is improved, and the production cost is reduced.

[0048] A valve reed of some specific embodiments of the present technology is described below in conjunction with the drawings.

[0049] As shown in FIGS. 1-2, the valve reed 8 includes a plate body 81a. The plate body 81a is generally circular and may be made of a stainless steel. A thickness T of the plate body 81a may be 0.1 millimeters.

[0050] The plate body 81a defines a slit 82a, and the slit 82a extends through the plate body 81a along a thickness direction of the plate body 81a. The slit 82a includes three first slits 824a and two second slits 825a. The slits 82a divides the plate body 81a into a circular central sealing portion 831a, an annular mounting portion 84a, an annular peripheral sealing portion 832a, three arc-shaped first swing arms 851a, and two arc-shaped second swing arms 852a. The central sealing portion 831a, the mounting portion 84a, the peripheral sealing portion 832a, the first swing arms 851a, and the second swing arms 852a are all concentric with each other.

[0051] The mounting portion 84a surrounds the central sealing portion 831a, and the peripheral sealing portion 832a surrounds the mounting portion 84a. The first swing arms 851a are located between the peripheral sealing portion 832a and the mounting portion 84a. The three first swing arms 851a are uniformly arranged along a circumferential direction of the central sealing portion 831a. A first end of each first swing arm 851a is connected to the peripheral sealing portion 832a through a first connecting portion 86a, and a second end of each first swing arm 851a is connected to the mounting portion 84a through a second connecting portion 87a. The second swing arms 852a are located between the central sealing portion 831a and the mounting portion 84a. The two second swing arms 852a are centrally symmetric to each other with respect to a center of the central sealing portion 831a. A first end of each second swing arm 852a is connected to the central sealing portion 831a through a third connecting portion 88a, and a second end of each second swing arm 852a is connected to the mounting portion 84a through a fourth connecting portion 89a.

[0052] Each first slit 824a includes an arc-shaped first outer slit segment 8241a, an arc-shaped first inner slit segment 8242a, and a first transition slit segment 8243a connecting the first outer slit segment 8241a and the first inner slit segment 8242a. Each first swing arm 851a is located between the first outer slit segment 8241a of one first slit 824a and the first inner slit segment 8242a of another adjacent first slit 824a.

[0053] Each second slit 825a includes an arc-shaped second outer slit segment 8251a, an arc-shaped second inner slit segment 8252a, and a second transition slit segment 8253a connecting the second outer slit segment 8251a and the second inner slit segment 8252a. One second swing arm 852a is located between the second outer slit segment 8251a of one second slit 825a and the second inner slit segment 8252a of another second slit 825a, while another second swing arm 852a is located between the second inner slit segment 8252a of the one second slit 825a and the second outer slit segment 8251a of the another second slit 825a.

[0054] The mounting portion 84a defines a plurality of mounting holes 841a, and the plurality of mounting holes 841a are uniformly arranged along the circumferential direction of the central sealing portion 831a. As shown in FIGS. 4-13, the valve reed 8 is press-fitted at a valve port via a pressure plate 17.

[0055] In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 4-6, 10, and 12, the peripheral sealing portion 832a corresponds to a suction valve port to open and close this suction valve port, while the central sealing portion 831a corresponds to a discharge valve port to open and close this discharge valve port. In this case, the valve reed 8 implements peripheral intake and central discharge. In some examples, as shown in FIGS. 7-9, 11, and 13, the central sealing portion 831a corresponds to a suction valve port to open and close this suction valve port, while the peripheral sealing portion 832a corresponds to a discharge valve port to open and close this discharge valve port. In this case, the valve reed 8 implements central intake and peripheral discharge.

[0056] A compressor in accordance with the present technology is described below.

[0057] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 20, a compressor 1001 includes a cylinder 1, a piston assembly 2, a driving device 9, and a valve reed.

[0058] The cylinder 1 includes a cylinder block 11, and a cylinder cavity 101 is defined in the cylinder block 11.

[0059] The piston assembly 2 includes a piston 22 and a piston frame 21. The piston 22 is arranged on at least one end of the piston frame 21 and is typically rigidly connected to the piston frame 21. For example, the piston 22 may be formed integrally with the piston frame 21. The piston 22 is movably fitted in the cylinder cavity 101 to define a compression chamber 102 in the cylinder cavity 101. The compression chamber 102 has an intake hole 103 and a discharge hole 104.

[0060] The piston assembly 2 may include one piston 22 arranged on one end of the piston frame 21, with one cylinder cavity 101 and one compression chamber 102. In this case, the compressor 1001 is referred to as a single-stage compressor 10011. Alternatively, the piston assembly 2 may include two pistons 22 arranged on two ends of the piston frame 21 respectively, with two cylinder cavities 101 and two compression chambers 102. The two pistons 22 are usually different in size. One of the two compression chambers 102 may be referred to as a low-pressure compression chamber, and the other of the two compression chambers 102 may be referred to as a high-pressure compression chamber. In this case, the compressor 1001 is referred to as a two-stage compressor 10012.

[0061] The driving device 9 includes a motor 4 and a crankshaft 5. The motor 4 has a motor shaft 41, and the crankshaft 5 includes a main shaft portion 51 and an eccentric shaft portion 52. A first end of the eccentric shaft portion 52 is pivotally connected to a piston frame 21, and a second end of the eccentric shaft portion 52 is connected to the main shaft portion 51. The main shaft portion 51 is coaxially connected to the motor shaft 41, and a central axis of the eccentric shaft portion 52 is eccentric with respect to a central axis of the motor shaft 41. The motor 4 drives the piston frame 21 via the crankshaft 5 to drive the piston 22 to reciprocate in the cylinder 1.

[0062] The valve reed may be the valve reed 8 described in the above embodiments and may be provided on the cylinder 1. One of the central sealing portion 831a and the peripheral sealing portion 832a is configured to open and close a port of the intake hole 103, i.e., the suction valve port, while the other of the central sealing portion 831a and the peripheral sealing portion 832a is configured to open and close a port of the discharge hole 104, i.e., the discharge valve port.

[0063] During a suction process of the compression chamber 102, one of the central sealing portion 831a and the peripheral sealing portion 832a opens the suction valve port, and an airflow from the intake hole 103 enters the compression chamber 102 through the slit 82a of the valve reed 8. After a pressure in the compression chamber 102 gradually increases to a preset valve, one of the central sealing portion 831a and the peripheral sealing portion 832a closes the suction valve port, the other of the central sealing portion 831a and the peripheral sealing portion 832a opens the discharge valve port, and an airflow in the discharge hole 104 is discharged from the compression chamber 102 through the slit 82a of the valve reed 8.

[0064] In some examples, as shown in FIGS. 7-9 and 11, one intake hole 103 and a plurality of discharge holes 104 are provided. The plurality of discharge holes 104 are uniformly arranged around the intake hole 103. The central sealing portion 831a is configured to open and close the port of the intake hole 103, while the peripheral sealing portion 832a is configured to simultaneously open and close the ports of the plurality of discharge holes 104. Alternatively, as shown in FIGS. 4-6 and 10, one discharge hole 104 and a plurality of intake holes 103 are provided. The plurality of intake holes 103 are uniformly arranged around the discharge hole 104. The central sealing portion 831a is configured to open and close the port of the discharge hole 104, while the peripheral sealing portion 832a is configured to simultaneously open and close the ports of the plurality of intake holes 103.

[0065] For example, compared to a conventional compressor in the related art where a suction valve reed and a discharge valve reed are separately arranged, the example embodiments of the compressor according to the present technology utilize a single valve reed to achieve both opening and closing of the suction valve port and both opening and closing of the discharge valve port. This reduces the number of valve reeds and other mounting parts, thus resulting in a compact structure, higher convenience in assembly, disassembly and maintenance, and lower production costs.

[0066] A single-stage compressor according to some example embodiments of the present technology is described below, in conjunction with some of the drawings.

[0067] As shown in FIGS. 3-6, a single-stage compressor 10011 includes a cylinder 1, a piston assembly 2, a motor 4, a crankshaft 5, an air storage tank 6, and a valve reed.

[0068] The cylinder 1 includes a cylinder block 11, a cylinder liner 12, a cylinder head 13, an air chamber isolation sleeve 16, a pressure plate 17, and a sealing cover 18. The cylinder head 13 is mounted to an upper end of the cylinder block 11. For example, the cylinder head 13 is detachably connected to the cylinder block 11 via bolts. The cylinder head 13 has an intake port 113 and a discharge port 114, and an intake passage 111 communicating with the intake port 113 and a discharge passage 115 communicating with the discharge port 114 are defined in the cylinder head 13. The discharge port 114 of the cylinder head 13 communicates with the air storage tank 6. The air storage tank 6 may smooth the airflow, thus improving the operation quality and reliability of the compressor 1001.

[0069] The cylinder liner 12 is mounted in the cylinder head 13 and the cylinder block 11, and a cylinder cavity 101 is defined in the cylinder liner 12. The piston assembly 2 includes a piston frame 21 and one piston 22. The piston 22 is arranged at an upper end of the piston frame 21 and is movably arranged in the cylinder cavity 101 to define a compression chamber 102 in the cylinder cavity 101.

[0070] The air chamber isolation sleeve 16 is mounted in the cylinder head 13 and is located above the cylinder liner 12. The valve reed may be the valve reed 8 described in the above embodiments. The pressure plate 17 presses the valve reed 8 against the air chamber isolation sleeve 16.

[0071] A center of the pressure plate 17 is provided with a discharge hole 104 communicating with the compression chamber 102. The central sealing portion 831a of the valve reed 8 is configured to open and close an upper port of the discharge hole 104 (i.e., the discharge valve port).

The motor 4 drives the piston assembly 2 to move downward via the crankshaft 5. External air F enters the intake passage 111 through the intake port 113 and then flows into the plurality of intake holes 103. The peripheral sealing portion 832a translates downward to open the suction valve ports, thus allowing air to enter the compression chamber 102 from the intake holes 103. As shown in FIG. 5, when the piston assembly 2 reaches a bottom dead center, the piston assembly 2 turns to move upward, and the air is compressed in the compression chamber 102. Subsequently, the peripheral sealing portion 832a translates upward to close the suction valve ports, while the central sealing portion 831a translates upward until it contacts the valve reed limiting plate 161 to open the discharge valve port. The compressed air enters the discharge passage 115 through the discharge valve port and is finally discharged into the air storage tank 6 through the discharge port 114, as shown in FIG. 6.

A center of the first pressure plate 171 is provided with a first discharge hole 1041 communicating with the first compression chamber 1021. The central sealing portion 831a of the first valve reed 801a is configured to open and close a lower port of the first discharge hole 1041 (i.e., a first discharge valve port). The first discharge valve port communicates with the first discharge passage 1151 after being opened. The first valve plate 191 defines a plurality of first intake holes 1031 uniformly arranged around the first discharge hole 1041 and communicating with the first compression chamber 1021. The peripheral sealing portion 832a of the first valve reed 801a is configured to open and close upper ports of the plurality of first intake holes 1031 (i.e., first suction valve ports).

The second discharge valve port communicates with the second discharge passage 1152 after being opened. The second valve plate 192 defines a plurality of second intake holes 1032 uniformly arranged around the second discharge hole 1042 and communicating with the second compression chamber 1022. The peripheral sealing portion 832a of the second valve reed 802a is configured to open and close lower ports of the plurality of second intake holes 1032 (i.e., second suction valve ports). The second suction valve ports communicate with the second intake passage 1112 after being opened.

[0087] The first discharge port 1141 communicates with the second intake port 1132 through a communicating air passage 201, and the communicating air passage 201 may be formed in the cylinder block 11 or by a separate bypass pipe.

[0088] During operation of the two-stage compressor 10012 of this embodiment, the valve reeds 8 implements peripheral intake and central discharge. The piston assembly 2 moves upward, external air F enters the first intake passage 1111 through the first intake port 1131 and then flows into the plurality of first intake holes 1031. The peripheral sealing portion 832a of the first valve reed 801a translates upward to open the first suction valve ports, thus allowing air to enter the first compression chamber 1021 through the first intake holes 1031. The piston assembly 2 reaches a top dead center and turns to move downward, and the air is compressed in the first compression chamber 1021. Subsequently, the peripheral sealing portion 832a of the first valve reed 801a translates downward to close the first suction valve ports, and the central sealing portion 831a of the first valve reed 801a translates downward to open the first discharge valve port. The compressed air enters the first discharge passage 1151 through the first discharge valve port, and then flows from the first discharge port 1141 through the communicating air passage 201 into the second intake port 1132.

[0089] The air compressed from the first compression chamber 1021 enters the plurality of second intake holes 1032 through the second intake passage 1112. The peripheral sealing portion 832a of the second valve reed 802a translates downward to open the second suction valve ports, thus allowing air to enter the second compression chamber 1022 through the second intake holes 1032. After the piston assembly 2 reaches a bottom dead center, the piston assembly 2 turns to move upward again, and the air is compressed again in the second compression chamber 1022. Subsequently, the peripheral sealing portion 832a of the second valve reed 802a translates upward to close the second suction valve ports, and the central sealing portion 831a of the second valve reed 802a translates upward to open the second discharge valve port. The twice-compressed air then enters the second discharge passage 1152 through the second discharge valve port and is finally discharged through the second discharge port 1142. For example, the twice-compressed air is discharged into a dryer for drying, and the dried gas is supplied to a compressed gas utilization device. This cycle repeats continuously.

[0090] A middle portion of the piston frame 21 is provided with a sliding groove 231, a sliding block 24 is arranged in the sliding groove 231. The driving device 9 includes a planetary reduction assembly 3, a motor 4, and a crankshaft 5. The motor 4 has a motor shaft 41. The motor shaft 41 is pivotally connected to the sliding block 24 via the planetary reduction assembly 3 and the crankshaft 5. The planetary reduction assembly 3 has a high reduction ratio, and the motor 4 may be a high-speed motor. For example, a rotation speed of the motor 4 is greater than 4000 rpm. In some examples, the rotation speed of the motor 4 is greater than 8000 rpm. This results in a small required space, thus reducing the overall size and weight of the two-stage compressor 10012.

[0091] In some embodiments of the present technology, by adopting the combination of the high-speed motor and the planetary reduction assembly, the two-stage compressor may quickly respond to load changes while ensuring the stability and accuracy.

[0092] Compared with conventional reducers, the planetary reduction assembly has a high transmission efficiency, which may not only reduce the power consumption required by the motor, reducing the energy consumption of the two-stage compressor, but also improve a working efficiency of the two-stage compressor, particularly suitable for automotive compressors.

[0093] As shown in FIGS. 17 and 18, the motor 4 includes the motor shaft 41, a motor housing 42, a motor rear end cover 43, a rotor 44, and a stator 45.

The motor rear end cover 43 is detachably mounted at the opening of the motor housing 42 through bolts. The motor rear end cover 43 has a groove, and a rotor rear bearing 47 is provided in this groove. The motor shaft 41 is connected to the rotor 44, a part of the motor shaft 41 passing through the motor housing 42 engages with the rotor front bearing 46, and an end of the motor shaft 41 located in the motor housing 42 engages with the rotor rear bearing 47.

[0094] As shown in FIGS. 17 and 18, the planetary reduction assembly 3 includes an inner gear ring 31, a planet carrier 32, a sun gear 33, and a plurality of planet gears 34.

[0095] The inner gear ring 31 is configured as a fixed gear of the planetary reduction assembly 3. The inner gear ring 31 includes a cylindrical body 311 and an annular boss 312. The annular boss 312 is arranged on an inner circumferential wall of the cylindrical body 311, and inner teeth are formed on an inner circumferential wall surface of the annular boss 312. The annular boss 312 defines a mating hole 301 within the cylindrical body 311, and the mating hole 301 is located at an end of the cylindrical body 311 adjacent to the motor 4. An end of the motor housing 42 is provided with a mating portion 401 with a reduced diameter, and the mating portion 401 is fitted in the mating hole 301. An end of the cylindrical body 311 is abutted against an end of the motor housing 42, and an outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical body 311 is flush with an outer circumferential surface of the motor housing 42.

[0096] Through the tight fit between the mating hole 301 and the mating portion 401, a spacing between the planetary reduction assembly 3 and the motor 4 is reduced, structural compactness is improved, and overall volume and occupied space are reduced, further reducing the size of the two-stage compressor 10012. In addition, the outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical body 311 is flush with the outer circumferential surface of the motor housing 42, which also improves an overall visual effect. Further, a sealing ring 48 or other sealing elements may be provided between the mating hole 301 and the mating portion 401 to improve a sealing performance between the planetary reduction assembly 3 and the motor 4.

[0097] As shown in FIG. 18, an end face of the planet carrier 32 facing away from the crankshaft 5 (i.e., a right end face in FIG. 18) is provided with an assembly groove 321, a rear bearing 322 is mounted in the assembly groove 321, and an end of the motor shaft 41 extending out of the motor housing 42 engages with the rear bearing 322.

[0098] The motor shaft 41 drives the sun gear 33 to rotate around a central axis X1, and the central axis X1 is a common central axis of the motor shaft 41, the sun gear 33, and the planet carrier 32. The planet gears 34 revolve around the central axis X1 and simultaneously rotate about central axes of the planet gear shafts 35, so that the planet carrier 32 rotates around the central axis X1.

[0099] In some examples, teeth of the inner gear ring 31 and the planet gears 34 are helical teeth, which may reduce speed, increase torque, and reduce noise.

[0100] As shown in FIGS. 17 to 19, the crankshaft 5 includes a main shaft portion 51 and an eccentric shaft portion 52. An end of the main shaft portion 51 is connected to the planet carrier 32. A central axis of the main shaft portion 51 is coaxial with the common central axis X1 of the planet carrier 32, the inner gear ring 31, and the motor shaft 41, which is referred to as the central axis X1 in the following description. The cylinder block 11 is provided with a front bearing 112, and the main shaft portion 51 engages with the front bearing 112.

[0101] In some examples, the main shaft portion 51 and the planet carrier 32 may be integrally formed, improving the overall strength and durability of the crankshaft 5, reducing assembly and maintenance workload for the crankshaft 5, improving structural compactness, reducing overall volume and occupied space, and further reducing the size of the two-stage compressor 10012.

[0102] The main shaft portion 51 has an assembly hole 511, an end of the eccentric shaft portion 52 is fitted in the assembly hole 511, and another end of the eccentric shaft portion 52 extends out of the assembly hole 511. A central axis X2 of the eccentric shaft portion 52 is eccentric with respect to the central axis X1 of the main shaft portion 51, and the another end of the eccentric shaft portion 52 is pivotally connected to the sliding block 24 in the piston frame 21.

[0103] Since the piston assembly 2 and the eccentric shaft portion 52 are eccentrically arranged relative to the main shaft portion 51, the crankshaft 5 will generate unbalanced forces during rotation. For this reason, the main shaft portion 51 is provided with a balance weight 53 to reduce or eliminate vibrations caused by the unbalance of the crankshaft 5, thus improving operational stability and reliability of the crankshaft 5, and reducing noise generated by the vibrations of the crankshaft 5.

[0127] During operation of the two-stage compressor 10012 of this embodiment, the first valve reed 801a implements peripheral intake and central discharge. The piston assembly 2 moves upward, external air F enters the intake passage 111 through the intake port 113 and then flows into the plurality of first intake holes 1031. The peripheral sealing portion 832a of the first valve reed 801a translates downward to open the first suction valve ports, thus allowing air to enter the first compression chamber 1021 through the first intake holes 1031. After the piston assembly 2 reaches a top dead center, the piston assembly 2 turns to move downward, and the air is compressed in the first compression chamber 1021. Subsequently, the peripheral sealing portion 832a of the first valve reed 801a translates upward to close the first suction valve ports, and the central sealing portion 831a of the first valve reed 801a translates upward to open the first discharge valve port. The compressed air enters the communicating air passage 201 from the first discharge valve port through the first discharge passage 1151.

[0128] Next, the sealing portion 83b of the third valve reed 802b translates upward to open the second suction valve port, thus allowing the air to enter the second compression chamber 1022 through the second intake hole 1032. After the piston assembly 2 reaches a bottom dead center, the piston assembly 2 turns to move upward again, and the air is compressed again in the second compression chamber 1022. Then, the exhaust valve 15 opens, and the compressed gas in the second compression chamber 1022 is discharged through the second discharge hole 1042. This cycle repeats continuously.
