An air conditioner has a variable capacity rotary compressor, which allows the compressor to be smoothly re-started, thus increasing start reliability of the compressor. The air conditioner includes a compressor rotated in opposite directions. A drive unit rotates the compressor in a forward or reverse direction. A start determining unit determines whether the compressor has started to rotate in a forward direction or not. A control unit operates the drive unit so as to rotate the compressor in a direction opposite to the forward direction, and then re- start the compressor in the forward direction, when the compressor has failed to start. The air conditioner and a method of controlling the air conditioner allow the compressor to be smoothly and rapidly re-started even when the compressor has failed to re-start, thus increasing start reliability, and shortening a time required to re-start the compressor.

A seal for a rotary compressor comprises a casing, at least one assembly having a rotating seal face ring which rotates as one with a sleeve intended to be mounted on a shaft of the compressor and of a stationary seal face ring mounted on the casing, the seal face rings being urged to press against one another via their rubbing face. The seal design further incorporates fluid circulation for heating leaks of compressible fluid conveyed by the compressor that occur between the seal face rings, this fluid circulation being formed in the casing and extending at least partially downstream of the seal face rings with respect to the direction of flow of the fluid stream.

A rotary compressor having a plurality of compression chambers and adapted to vary a compression capacity according to a direction of rotation of roller pistons within the compression chambers. A rotating shaft provided with a plurality of eccentric parts drives the roller pistons to compress refrigerant in the compression chambers by eccentric rotations of the eccentric parts. A reversible motor selectively rotates the rotating shaft in opposite directions, and a clutch engages the roller pistons such that the roller pistons perform a compressing action or an idle action according to a rotating direction of the rotating shaft, thus varying the compression capacity of the compressor according to a rotating direction of the rotating shaft. Thus, the compression capacity may be varied without using an inverter circuit.

A pivoting vane rotary compressor includes a housing having a generally pear-shaped chamber. A rotor mounted within the chamber defines a main and constricted chamber regions. Reversible intake and exhaust ports alternately introduce air into and exhaust air from the chamber. The rotor carries pivotable vanes and a motor drives the rotor alternately in opposing first and second directions to open the vanes and define compartments that transmit the air through the chamber between the ports. Air introduced through one of the ports is compressed and discharged through the other port. A concentrator employs a pair of these compressors as well as associated filters and crossover valves.

A multi-cylinder rotary compressor is constructed by receiving in a sealed chamber (1) a rotating shaft (4), an electric motor section (3), and first to third compression mechanism sections (2A-2C). The rotating shaft (4) is rotatably supported by bearings (9, 11). The compression mechanism sections (2A-2C) respectively have cylinder chambers (14a-14c) in which eccentric sections (4a-4c) and eccentric rollers (13a-13c) provided on the rotating shaft are received, cylinders (8A-8C) having the cylinders chambers, and blades (15a-15c) of which each head edge is in contact with the peripheral surface of the eccentric roller to partition the cylinder chamber into two. At least one of the two clearances, out of clearances in sliding sections of the compression mechanism sections, of the second compression mechanism section not in contact with the bearings is set greater than the clearances in the first and third compression mechanism sections in contact with the bearings. Run-out of the rotating shaft involved in its rotation can be reduced to improve compression efficiency.

A refrigeration cycle system is provided with a two-cylinder type rotary compressor having one compression mechanism which includes a switching mechanism for switching a back surface side of a blade between a low pressure mode and a high pressure mode and controlling the inner space of the cylinder chamber to the high pressure upon switching at the low pressure mode. In a high load state, a normal operation is performed by switching the pressure of the back surface side of the blade of the one compression mechanism at the high pressure mode. In a low load state, an uncompressed operation is performed by switching the pressure of the back surface side of the blade of the one compression mechanism at the low pressure mode and by controlling the inner space of the cylinder chamber to the high pressure to move the blade away from the roller. This makes it possible to provide the refrigeration cycle system which generates no noise and causes no damage to the blade, thus allowing the uncompressed operation to be continuously performed.
