DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0048] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the attached drawing figures, wherein the same or like reference numerals and letters throughout the figures denote the same or like elements or elements with the same or similar function. The embodiments described below are exemplary and intended to explain the present application, and are not to be understood as limiting the present application.
[0049] As shown in Figs. 1-3, a compression unit 10 according to an embodiment of the present application includes a first scroll plate 11 and a second scroll plate 12. The first scroll plate 11 includes a first bottom plate 111 and a plurality of first scroll teeth 112 provided on the first bottom plate 111. The second scroll plate 12 includes a second bottom plate 121 and a plurality of second scroll teeth 122 provided on the second bottom plate 121. The plurality of first scroll teeth 112 form a plurality of compression passages 1001. The first bottom plate 111 or the second bottom plate 121 is provided with a plurality of exhaust holes 1002, which respectively communicate with the plurality of compression passages 1001. The plurality of second scroll teeth 122 are disposed in the plurality of compression passages 1001. The second scroll teeth move relative to the first scroll teeth to compress fluid in the compression passages.
[0050] The first scroll teeth 112 and the second scroll teeth 122 are respectively matched to form scroll compression structures, and respectively drive the fluid in the corresponding compression channels 1001 to flow to the corresponding exhaust holes 1002. The compression of the fluid in the plurality of compression channels 1001 is relatively independent, which can reduce the mutual influence of the fluid compression process in the plurality of compression channels 1001, and can reduce the clearance volume of the compression unit 10 and improve the performance of the compression unit 10. In addition, compared with the scheme of discharging the fluid in the plurality of compression channels 1001 through the same opening, the application can avoid or reduce the influence of the turbulence of the fluid gathered in the same opening on the compression performance.
[0051] The number of the first scroll teeth 112 in the application can be two, three, four, six, etc. The number of the second scroll teeth 122 can be the same as that of the first scroll teeth 112. The number of the compression channels 1001 can be the same as that of the first scroll teeth 112. The compression unit 10 of the application includes but is not limited to the following examples. The application adopts a multi-tooth scroll structure, which has the characteristics of multi-tooth, less moving parts, simple assembly, low vibration and noise, small overall structure size, and smooth energy conversion process compared with traditional positive displacement compressors.
[0052] For example 1, the first scroll plate 11 is a static scroll plate, and the number of the first scroll teeth 112 is two. Two compression channels 1001 are formed between the two first scroll teeth 112, which are respectively a first channel and a second channel. The second scroll plate 12 is a dynamic scroll plate, and the second scroll teeth 122 are two. One of the second scroll teeth 122 is arranged in the first channel and cooperates with the two adjacent first scroll teeth 112. When the second scroll plate 12 moves around the axis of the first scroll plate 11 at a fixed revolution radius, it drives the fluid in the first channel to flow to the corresponding exhaust hole 1002. The other second scroll tooth 122 is arranged in the second channel and cooperates with the two adjacent first scroll teeth 112. When the second scroll plate 12 moves around the axis of the first scroll plate 11 at a fixed revolution radius, it drives the fluid in the second channel to flow to the corresponding exhaust hole 1002.
[0053] In the example 2, the first scroll plate 11 is a static scroll plate, and the number of the first scroll teeth 112 is three. The three first scroll teeth 112 are configured to form three compression channels 1001, which are respectively a first channel, a second channel and a third channel. The second scroll plate 12 is a dynamic scroll plate, and the number of the second scroll teeth 122 is three. The first second scroll tooth 122 is arranged in the first channel and cooperates with the adjacent two first scroll teeth 112. When the second scroll plate 12 moves around the axis of the first scroll plate 11 at a fixed revolution radius, the first second scroll tooth 122 drives the fluid in the first channel to flow to the corresponding exhaust hole 1002. The second second scroll tooth 122 is arranged in the second channel and cooperates with the adjacent two first scroll teeth 112. When the second scroll plate 12 moves around the axis of the first scroll plate 11 at a fixed revolution radius, the second second scroll tooth 122 drives the fluid in the second channel to flow to the corresponding exhaust hole 1002. The third second scroll tooth 122 is arranged in the third channel and cooperates with the adjacent two first scroll teeth 112. When the second scroll plate 12 moves around the axis of the first scroll plate 11 at a fixed revolution radius, the third second scroll tooth 122 drives the fluid in the third channel to flow to the corresponding exhaust hole 1002.
[0054] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the inner end of the compression channel 1001 is closed, and the exhaust hole 1002 is connected to the inner end of the corresponding compression channel 1001. During the cooperation of the first scroll plate 11 and the second scroll plate 12 to compress the fluid, the fluid will be driven to flow to the inner end of the compression channel 1001. When the inner end of the compression channel 1001 is closed, the fluid will be discharged through the corresponding exhaust hole 1002. The plurality of compression channels 1001 can be separated, and each compression channel 1001 can be independently discharged through the corresponding exhaust hole 1002, so as to reduce the influence between the plurality of compression channels 1001. The plurality of first scroll teeth 112 can be distributed along the circumference of the first bottom plate 111, and the compression channel 1001 will be formed between the adjacent first scroll teeth 112. The inner end of the compression channel 1001 formed between the adjacent first scroll teeth 112 is closed.
[0055] In addition, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the first scroll plate 11 further comprises a convex part 1003 arranged on the first bottom plate 111. The plurality of first scroll teeth 112 are connected to the convex part 1003 and arranged around the convex part 1003 to form an integrated multi-tooth structure. The inner end of the compression channel 1001 formed between the adjacent first scroll teeth 112 can be closed by the convex part 1003. The connection of the convex part 1003 can improve the structural strength of the plurality of first scroll teeth 112, the first scroll teeth 112 and the first bottom plate 111.
[0056] In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, a plurality of second scroll teeth 122 are distributed along the circumference of the second bottom plate 121, and adjacent second scroll teeth 122 are spaced apart to form a discrete multi-tooth structure. In order to facilitate the corresponding cooperation of the plurality of second scroll teeth 122 and the plurality of first scroll teeth 112, respectively, in order to compress the fluid.
[0057] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 9, the first scroll plate 11 is provided with a first central through hole 1004, and the plurality of first scroll teeth 112 are distributed around the first central through hole 1004.
[0058] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 10, the second scroll plate 12 is provided with a second central through hole 1005, and the plurality of second scroll teeth 122 are distributed around the second central through hole 1005. When the compression unit 10 is connected to the crankshaft, the crankshaft can be inserted through the first central through hole 1004 and the second central through hole 1005, so as to drive the relative translational motion of the first scroll plate 11 and the second scroll plate 12 when the crankshaft rotates. In this way, the plurality of compression units 10 can be connected by the crankshaft transmission.
[0059] Of course, the first scroll plate 11 can also not be provided with the first central through hole 1004, and the end of the crankshaft can be connected to the first scroll plate 11. The second scroll plate 12 can also not be provided with the second central through hole 1005, and the end of the crankshaft can be connected to the second scroll plate 12.
[0060] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 5, the first scroll tooth 112 includes a first tooth head correction segment 1121, a first inner involute segment 1122, a first tooth tail connecting segment 1123, and a first outer involute segment 1124. The first tooth head correction segment 1121 of one of the adjacent first scroll teeth 112 is connected to the first outer involute segment 1124 of the other, for closing the inner end of the compression channel 1001 formed between the adjacent first scroll teeth 112. The stable cooperation of the first scroll tooth 112 and the second scroll tooth 122 can be achieved, the clearance volume of the tooth head part is eliminated, and the performance of the compressor is improved.
[0061] In addition, the first tooth head correction segment 1121 is configured as a circular arc, a spline curve, a B-spline curve, or an elliptical arc.
[0062] In some embodiments, the first inner involute segment 1122 is configured as a circular involute, a triangular involute, a straight line involute, or an algebraic spiral.
[0063] In some embodiments, the first outer involute segment 1124 is configured as a circular involute, a triangular involute, a straight line involute, or an algebraic spiral.
[0064] In some embodiments, the first tooth head correction segment 1121, the first inner involute segment 1122, and the first outer involute segment 1124 are portions that need to cooperate with the corresponding curves of the second scroll plate 12, and thus must be smooth. Optionally, the first tooth head correction segment 1121, the first inner involute segment 1122, and the first outer involute segment 1124 are configured as smooth curves.
[0065] In some embodiments, the first tooth tail connection segment 1123 is configured as a circular arc, a straight line, or any other type of line segment, and is not limited in form because it does not need to participate in cooperation.
[0066] In some embodiments, the first base plate 111 is taken as a first reference plane, the projected area of the plurality of first scroll teeth 112 on the first reference plane is A1, and the profile area of the first base plate 111 is A2, wherein the ratio of A1 to A2 is greater than 1%. This can facilitate stable cooperation of the first scroll teeth 112 and the second scroll teeth 122, and improve the structural stability of the compression unit 10. In addition, the structural strength of the first scroll teeth 112 can be improved while ensuring the displacement of the compressor.
[0067] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 6, the second scroll teeth 122 include a second tooth head correction segment 1221, a second inner involute segment 1222, a second tooth tail connection segment 1223, and a second outer involute segment 1224, and the second tooth head correction segment 1221 is connected to the second outer involute segment 1224. This can achieve stable cooperation of the first scroll teeth 112 and the second scroll teeth 122, eliminate the clearance volume of the tooth head portion, and improve the performance of the compressor.
[0068] In addition, the second tooth head correction segment 1221, the second inner involute segment 1222, and the second outer involute segment 1224 are portions that need to cooperate with the corresponding curves of the first scroll plate 11, and thus must be smooth. The second tooth head correction segment 1221 is configured as a circular arc, a spline curve, a B-spline curve, or an elliptical arc.
[0069] In some embodiments, the second inner involute segment 1222 is configured as a circular involute, a triangular involute, a straight line involute, or an algebraic spiral.
[0070] In some embodiments, the second outer involute segment 1224 is configured as a circular involute, a triangular involute, a straight line involute, or an algebraic spiral.
[0071] In some embodiments, the second tooth head correction segment 1221, the second inner involute segment 1222, and the second outer involute segment 1224 are configured as smooth curves. The second tooth tail connection segment 1223 is configured as a circular arc, a straight line, or any other type of line segment, and is not limited in form because it does not need to participate in cooperation.
[0072] Optionally, taking the profile of the second bottom plate 121 as the second reference plane, the projection area of the plurality of second spiral teeth 122 on the second reference plane is A3, and the profile area of the second bottom plate 121 is A4, wherein the ratio of A3 to A4 is greater than 1%. The first spiral teeth 112 and the second spiral teeth 122 can be stably matched, and the structural stability of the compression unit 10 can be improved. In addition, the structural strength of the first spiral teeth 112 can be improved while ensuring the displacement of the compressor.
[0073] In addition, in combination with FIGS. 3, 11 to 14, the cooperation of at least two of the plurality of first spiral teeth 112 and the corresponding second spiral teeth 122 has a phase difference. Through this setting, when the at least two first spiral teeth 112 compress the fluid, the corresponding exhaust holes 1002 do not simultaneously exhaust, so that the fluid in the plurality of compression channels 1001 is sequentially discharged from the compression unit 10, and problems such as vibration caused by the simultaneous exhaust of the plurality of exhaust holes 1002 and the simultaneous stop of the exhaust can be avoided.
[0074] Further, the cooperation of the plurality of first spiral teeth 112 and the corresponding second spiral teeth 122 has a phase difference, and the phase difference α of the cooperation of the first spiral teeth 112 and the corresponding second spiral teeth 122 adjacent in time sequence satisfies α = 360° / i, where i is the number of the first spiral teeth 112.
[0075] For example, the number of the first spiral teeth 112 is 2, and the phase difference of the cooperation of the first spiral teeth 112 adjacent in time sequence and the corresponding second spiral teeth 122 is 180°, that is, when the compression flow passage corresponding to one first spiral tooth 112 is in the exhaust stage, the compression flow passage corresponding to another first spiral tooth 112 is in the suction stage; for another example, the number of the first spiral teeth 112 is 3, and the phase difference of the cooperation of the first spiral teeth 112 adjacent in time sequence and the corresponding second spiral teeth 122 is 120°, that is, when the compression flow passage corresponding to one first spiral tooth 112 is in the suction stage, the compression flow passage corresponding to another first spiral tooth 112 is in the compression stage, and the compression flow passage corresponding to another first spiral tooth 112 is in the exhaust stage; for another example, the number of the first spiral teeth 112 is 4, and the phase difference of the cooperation of the first spiral teeth 112 adjacent in time sequence and the corresponding second spiral teeth 122 is 90°. Of course, the number of the first spiral teeth 112 in the present application can also be 5, 6, etc., and the present application will not be described again.
[0076] In the present application, one of the first scroll plate 11 and the second scroll plate 12 can be a static scroll plate, and the other can be a dynamic scroll plate. The dynamic scroll plate can move along the axis of the static scroll plate at a fixed revolution radius, so as to realize compression of the fluid. The cooperation of the first scroll plate 11 and the second scroll plate 12 in the present application includes but is not limited to the following embodiments.
[0077] In one embodiment, in combination with FIG. 4 to FIG. 8, the first scroll plate 11 is configured as a stationary scroll plate, and the second scroll plate 12 is configured as a movable scroll plate, and the second scroll plate 12 moves in translation around the axis of the first scroll plate 11 at a fixed orbit radius.
[0078] For example, the first scroll plate 11 includes a first base plate 111 and a plurality of first scroll teeth 112, and the plurality of first scroll teeth 112 converge at the center of the first base plate 111 to form an integrated multi-tooth structure. In addition, the plurality of first scroll teeth 112 divide the space of the first base plate 111 into a plurality of independent compression channels 1001, and each compression channel 1001 is provided with an exhaust hole 1002 near the center of the first scroll plate 11. For example, the number of first scroll teeth 112 can be four, and the four first scroll teeth 112 will divide four independent compression channels 1001, and each compression channel 1001 is provided with an exhaust hole 1002 near the center of the scroll plate.
[0079] The second scroll plate 12 includes a second base plate 121 and a plurality of second scroll teeth 122, and the back of the second scroll plate 12 is generally provided with a bearing seat for mounting a bearing. The plurality of second scroll teeth 122 are separated from each other without intersection, and the second scroll teeth 122 can be four.
[0080] The matching process of the first scroll plate 11 and the second scroll plate 12 is shown in FIG. 11 to FIG. 14, and the second scroll plate 12 moves in translation around the center of the first scroll plate 11 at a fixed orbit radius (counterclockwise direction on the paper). The plurality of second scroll teeth 122 of the second scroll plate 12 respectively form a plurality of matching points with the plurality of first scroll teeth 112 of the first scroll plate 11. When the matching structure of the plurality of first scroll teeth 112 and the plurality of second scroll teeth 122 is completely the same, the displacement of each compression channel 1001 is 1 / N (N is the number of first scroll teeth 112 or second scroll teeth 122) of the total displacement of the compression unit 10. The plurality of matching points divide the plurality of compression channels 1001 into a plurality of crescent cavities. With the continuation of the translation, the matching points move, the volume of the crescent cavity gradually decreases, and the compression refrigerant is compressed and works on the refrigerant. As the volume of the refrigerant is compressed, its position gradually moves from the edge of the compression unit 10 to the center of the compression unit 10, close to the exhaust hole 1002.
[0081] As shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, in another example, the first scroll 11 is a one-piece multi-tooth static scroll and the second scroll 12 is a split multi-tooth dynamic scroll. The split multi-tooth dynamic scroll includes a plurality of second scroll teeth 122, a second bottom plate 121, and a second bearing hole.
