Has been. Further, as shown in FIG. 7, the front end portion Z of the wrap 23B is the starting point P of the inner side surface (hereinafter referred to as “inner involute surface S1”) of the two surfaces constituting the wrap 23B of the fixed scroll 23. And a non-involute surface S3 is formed in a region α (see FIG. 5A) between the start point Q of the outer surface (hereinafter referred to as “outer involute surface S2”) of the two surfaces. . The non-involute surface S3 is formed without changing the positions of both starting points of the inner involute surface S1 and the outer involute surface S2.
This non-involute surface S3 is a curved portion region α (= α1 + α2) indicated by a line segment from point P → point R → point Z → point Q in FIG. 5A, and the point R is a non-involute. This corresponds to the point where the concave curved surface S31 and the convex curved surface S32 of the surface S3 intersect. That is, the region from the point P to the point R is a concave surface portion, and constitutes the concave curved surface S31 that is the inner non-involute surface of the non-involute surface S3. On the other hand, the region from point R through point Z to point Q is a convex surface portion and constitutes a convex curved surface S32 that is an outer non-involute surface of the non-involute surface S3. Note that the point Z corresponds to the vertex of the convex curved surface S32 that is the outer non-involute surface S3. Further, as described above, the point R is a starting point as a common non-involute surface for the concave curved surface S31 that is an inner non-involute surface and the convex curved surface S32 that is an outer non-involute surface.
The non-involute surface S3 of the present invention has a curved surface shape with a small radius of curvature r (r <r ′; r ′ represents the entire concave surface S31, particularly from the start point R to the end point P of the concave surface S31; B), the radius of curvature of the inner involute surface S′1 in the fixed scroll of the specification 1 in Table 1 described later). That is, the concave curved surface S31 has a shape as shown by a solid line shifted in a direction closer to the through hole 23C (rightward in the figure) than the inner involute surface shown by a broken line in FIG.
On the other hand, for the convex curved surface S32 of the non-involute surface S3, that is, from the point R which is also the starting point on the convex curved surface S32 to the end point Q, a curved surface having an appropriate shape different from the inner involute surface, for example, the inner involute surface An arbitrary shape such as an arc-shaped curve shifted outward may be used. In the present embodiment, an arc having an appropriate curvature radius is used. As a result, as shown in FIG. 8, at least the thickness T of the convex curved surface S32 near the apex Z side of the wrap 23B of the fixed scroll 23 is also at least the tip Z of the wrap 25B of the movable scroll 25. ₀ Thickness T near the side ₀ It will be thicker.
Next, a method for forming a curved surface constituting the above-described non-involute surface S3 will be described.
(1) Desired Cartesian coordinates, that is, as shown in FIG. 7, an orthogonal XY coordinate is set at a predetermined position as an origin O, and a basic circle β is drawn at the origin O on the two-dimensional coordinates. The basic circle β is arbitrary for each of various compressors, and for example, the radius thereof is uniquely determined exclusively by the size of the fixed scroll and the output of the compressor.
(2) When the basic circle β is determined at a predetermined position in this way, an involute curve (a curve indicated by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 5) having an involute function as a primitive function with the basic circle β as a reference. This is called a primitive involute curve), and this primitive involute curve is rotated in both directions by a fixed angle (that is, the involute start point angle δ) around the origin. As a result, two involute curves having a constant width t at the starting point R are obtained. These are the inner involute surface S1 and the outer involute surface S2 in the fixed scroll 23, but the constant region α is changed to a non-involute surface from the starting point R on the spiral center portion side as described later.
(3) Next, in order to create an inner non-involute surface and an outer non-involute surface as shown in FIG. 7, which are uniquely determined by a required compression ratio, two straight lines having a constant angle θ are drawn. prepare. Then, using these straight lines, straight lines V and V ′ that are two tangent lines when contacting the basic circle β are determined. Here, the angle θ is for obtaining the involute start angle, and is uniquely determined by the compression ratio.
(4) Then, the intersection point P where the straight line V intersects the inner involute surface S1 and the intersection point Q where the straight line V 'intersects the outer involute surface S2 are determined.
The intersection point P is the end point of the inner non-involute surface (ie, the concave curved surface S31) and the start point of the inner involute surface S1, and the intersection point Q is the end point of the outer non-involute surface (ie, the convex curved surface S32) and the outer involute surface S2. This is the starting point. The point R, which is the starting point of the concave curved surface S31 that is the inner non-involute surface and the starting point of the convex curved surface S32 that is the outer non-involute surface, is a point where both curved surfaces intersect.
(5) Next, as shown in FIG. 5 (A), the curve in the α region indicated by the thick line connecting the four points including the two points P and Q, that is, the points P, R, Z, and Q, as shown in FIG. Is changed to a curved surface different from the involute, that is, the non-involute surface S3.
Of the non-involute surface S3 to be changed, the concave curved surface S31 to be the inner non-involute surface formed in the region α1 indicated by the two points P and R, as shown in FIG. An arc that is a part of the circumference drawn by a radius r centered on an arbitrary point C on the straight line V is formed, and the original involute shape is changed to this. Accordingly, the starting point of the inner involute surface S1 is changed to the point P. Note that the installation position of the center point of the circle when forming this arc is not necessarily limited to the section PN on the straight line V, which is a tangent line, and may be on an extension line thereof.
(6) As a result, the involute curve formed in the region α1 in the region ahead of the starting point P on the already formed inner involute surface S1 is changed to an arc centered on the arbitrary point C described above. To do. In particular, the radius r of the circle in this case is smaller than the corresponding radius r ′ of the fixed roll 23 ′ of the specification 1 type (see Table 1 described later) shown in FIG. <R ′ is used. Thereby, the inner non-involute surface S31 formed in the region α1 is shifted slightly outward from the inner involute curved surface before being changed to this, that is, closer to the through hole 23C. In addition, about the circular arc curve here, what passes through both the points of the end point P and the start point R is used.
(7) In the case of the present embodiment, the convex curved surface S32 that is the outer non-involute surface formed in the region α2 of the three points Q, Z, and R among the region α that forms the non-involute surface S3 is described above. As you can see, it has been changed to an arc curve. Thereby, it has shifted to the state which spreads a little outside rather than the outer involute curved surface before changing to this. As for the arc in this case, like the concave curved surface S31, in FIG. 7, two points of the contact point N ′ on the straight line V ′ that is the other side tangent to the basic circle β and the intersection point Q of the outer involute surface S2 described above. A part of the circumference drawn by a radius centered at an arbitrary point passing through N ′ and Q, which is the original involute shape, is changed to this.
By using the wrap 23B of the fixed scroll 23 having the non-involute surface S3 thus formed, the strength of the fixed scroll 23 can be increased without changing the compression ratio.
Next, the through hole 23C constituting the discharge port formed in the spiral center portion of the wrap 23B of the fixed scroll 23 will be described with reference to FIGS.
In the present embodiment, the end plate at the point Z that is the tip of the wrap 23B of the fixed scroll 23, particularly the inner peripheral edge of the through hole 23C that forms the discharge port formed at the spiral central portion that is the tip of the wrap 23B of the fixed scroll 23. A fixed scroll that faces the inner peripheral edge of the through-hole 23C from the root portion of point 23A (directly below the portion indicated by point Z in FIG. 5A) and the root portion at point Z that is the tip of this wrap 23B. 23 is configured to ensure a long length (hereinafter referred to as “close-to-hole distance L”) with respect to the closest edge portion U of 23.
That is, in the normal general through-hole, for example, the fixed scroll 23 'shown in FIG. 5B, the base portion with respect to the end plate 23'A at the point Z' which is the tip of the wrap 23'B (FIG. 5B ) Immediately below the portion indicated by the point Z ') and the closest edge of the fixed scroll 23' that faces the inner periphery of the through hole 23'C from the root at the tip Z 'of the wrap 23'B. Compared to the length between U ′ (hereinafter referred to as “critical hole distance L ′”), at least the critical hole distance L of the present embodiment is longer, that is, L> L ′. It is configured as follows.
As described above, the critical hole distance L in the fixed scroll 23 can be increased as compared with the critical hole distance L ′ in the fixed scroll 23 ′ of the specification 1. This is because the size is smaller than the through hole 23 ′ C in the fixed scroll 23 ′ described in 1. The base surface 232, in particular, the critical distance L, can be secured longer in the end plate 23A by the smaller amount.
Therefore, in order to narrow down the through hole 23C, the present embodiment has the following configuration.
In the through hole 23C of the present embodiment shown in FIG. 5A, the size of the through hole 23′C opened in the fixed scroll 23 ′ corresponding to the specification 1 in Table 1 shown in FIG. Thus, the opening area is narrowed to about 80% to 90% (in this embodiment, 90%) (see FIGS. 5A and 5B). That is, the through hole 23C has an opening shape in the approach region (ε) facing the concave curved surface S31 of the non-involute surface S3, and the opening shape in the approach region (ε ′) in the through hole 23′C of the fixed scroll 23 ′. Compared with the opening shape, the opening is configured to be narrowed. For example, in the present embodiment, the critical hole distance L is increased by reducing the opening area by about 10%.
Specifically, the opening radius of the through hole 23C is smaller than the radius of curvature r of the concave curved surface S31 so that the opening in the approach region (ε) facing the concave curved surface S31 (see FIG. 5A) is narrowed. It is composed of a curved surface that forms the inner edge. That is, the opening edge in the approach region (ε) is shifted and moved backward so as to approach toward the center direction of the through hole 23C (in FIG. 7, a portion indicated by a thick line from a portion indicated by a one-dot chain line). To the right). Thereby, the hole is narrowed to reduce the opening area. The curved surface of this portion may be, for example, an arc having a radius of curvature smaller than the radius of curvature r of the concave curved surface S31.
In addition, about the opening shape of this through-hole 23C, as mentioned above, the inner edge part in the approach area | region ((epsilon)) which faces the concave curved surface S31 of the non-involute surface S3 of the fixed scroll 23 approaches the hole center direction. In the remaining area (λ) opposite to the approach area (ε) shown in FIG. 5A, the shape of the fixed scroll 23 ′ described in the specification 1 at the through-hole 23′C is narrowed by retreating. It is the same as and has not been changed. That is, the communication of the compression chamber starts from the remaining area (λ) on the side opposite to the wrapping side of the through hole 23C, but there is no change in shape on this side, so that the discharge timings of the two pairs of compression chambers are the same as before. Are still the same.
Further, with regard to the relationship of the near hole distance L as described above, even when it is cut along an arrow cutting line VIA-VIA in FIG. 5 (A) that is slightly away from the vicinity of the point Z that is the tip of the lap 23B of the fixed scroll 23. It is the same.
That is, as shown in FIG. 6A, the fixed scroll according to the specification 1 of Table 1 is also used for the critical distance ΔL between the lap 23B and the through hole 23C at a portion slightly away from the vicinity of the tip Z of the lap 23B. The size is larger than the critical hole distance ΔL ′ in the normal fixed scroll 23 ′ shown in FIG. 6B, which is a cross-sectional view taken along the corresponding portion 23 ′.
Thus, as in the case of the critical hole distance L described above, the increase of the critical hole distance ΔL can be realized because the through hole 23C of the fixed scroll 23 at the cut surface portion as shown in FIG. This is made possible by making the width W narrower than the width W ′ (where W <W ′) of the corresponding portion of the through hole 23′C in the fixed scroll 23 ′.
Moreover, as shown in FIG. 6 (A), the through hole 23C constituting the discharge port formed in the spiral center portion that is the apex Z that is also the distal end portion of the wrap 23B of the fixed scroll 23 of the present embodiment. In the inner peripheral surface of the fixed scroll 23, the height H of the vertical wall 231 that rises vertically from the base surface 232, which is the surface portion connected to the base of the wrap 23B, of the mirror surface 230 of the end plate 23A of the fixed scroll 23 is increased. It has a formed configuration.
In particular, with respect to the through hole 23C of the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 5A and 6A, the wrap width t (see FIG. 5A) in the portion of the fixed scroll 23 excluding the lap 23B tip Z. The vertical wall 231 is provided so that the height H is about twice as high as that of (see (2)), that is, H = 2t.
On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 5 (B) and FIG. 6 (B), the fixed scroll 23 ′ of the specification 1 generally has a portion excluding the tip of the wrap 23′B of the fixed scroll 23 ′. The vertical wall 231 'is provided from the base surface 232' so that the height H 'is substantially the same as the width t' at H, that is, H'≈t '.
Accordingly, the through-hole 23C of the present embodiment has a vertical wall 231 formed higher than a normal general through-hole, that is, the through-hole 23′C in the fixed scroll 23 ′ of the specification 1, and therefore the wrap 23B. The end plate has a structure in which the thickness of the end plate 23A in the vicinity of the point Z is substantially increased, and the strength is greatly increased structurally.
Next, the relationship between the through hole 23C of the fixed scroll 23 and the recess 25D of the movable scroll 25 will be described with reference to FIG.
The through hole 23C of the present embodiment is smaller than the size of the recess 25D constituting the dummy port formed in the spiral center portion of the wrap 25B of the movable scroll 25, that is,
E1 <e1 and E2 <e2
It is formed to satisfy. Thus, the through hole 23C is not the same area as the depression 25D, but has a smaller area.
Further, the through-hole 23C of the fixed scroll 23 and the recess 25D of the movable scroll 25 are assembled in a relative positional relationship in which the phases are shifted 180 degrees from each other and reversed point-symmetrically. Here, according to elementary geometry, as is well known, “point symmetry” defines the relationship between figures that overlap each other when rotated 180 degrees around the center position of symmetry. In the embodiment, it is described as “point-symmetric” in consideration of the fact that the shapes are similar and the sizes are different so that they do not overlap exactly.
By forming the through hole 23C in such a shape, the communication between the compression chambers starts from the remaining region (λ; see FIG. 5) on the opposite side of the through hole 23C, so the discharge timing of the two pairs of compression chambers Are still the same. As a result, it is possible to effectively avoid the occurrence of an unnecessarily large load with respect to the bearing load. As a result, it is possible to prevent an adverse effect on noise, vibration, durability and the like from being generated.
Next, the operation of the scroll compressor 1 will be described.
When the drive motor 13 is driven, the rotor 13B rotates with respect to the stator 13A, and thereby the drive shaft 15 rotates. When the drive shaft 15 rotates, the movable scroll 25 of the scroll compression mechanism 11 keeps its posture with respect to the fixed scroll 23 and does not rotate but only revolves. As a result, the low-pressure refrigerant is sucked into the compression chamber 27 from the peripheral side of the compression chamber 27 through the suction pipe, and is compressed as the volume of the compression chamber 27 changes.
The compressed refrigerant becomes high pressure and is discharged from the compression chamber 27 through the discharge valve 22 to the discharge space 29, and through the vertical grooves (not shown) provided on the outer circumferences of the housing 21 and the fixed scroll 23. Flows out of the oil collector 24 on the high-pressure space 17 side below. The high-pressure refrigerant is discharged out of the casing 3 through a discharge pipe (not shown) provided in the casing body 5. The refrigerant discharged to the outside of the casing 3 circulates through a refrigerant circuit (not shown), is again sucked into the compressor 1 through the suction pipe, is compressed, and the circulation of the refrigerant is repeated.
Next, the flow of the lubricating oil will be described.
The lubricating oil stored in the inner bottom portion of the lower cap 9 in the casing 3 is scraped up by a pickup (not shown) provided at the lower end of the drive shaft 15 shown in FIG. 1, and this lubricating oil is supplied to the oil supply passage 15B of the drive shaft 15. Then, the oil is supplied to the oil chamber 52 in the high pressure state on the back of the movable scroll 25. Further, the lubricating oil opens from the oil chamber 52 shown in FIG. 4 to the lower surface 233 which is the front end surface of the lap 23B on the fixed scroll 23 side through the communication passage 51 and the communication hole 53 provided in the movable scroll 25. The oil groove 23 D (see FIGS. 2 and 4) is fed out using the differential pressure and supplied to the sliding portions of the scroll compression mechanism 11 and the compression chamber 27.
Further, for example, in FIG. 1, when the oil supplied to the compression chamber 27 moves to the center of both scrolls, which is a high-pressure compression chamber, the discharge valve 22 is caused to flow along with the flow of the refrigerant in the high-pressure state compressed here. It is discharged to the discharge space 29 through. Thus, the lubricating oil discharged into the discharge space 29 through the discharge valve 22 together with the high-pressure refrigerant passes through the vertical grooves (not shown) provided on the outer peripheries of the housing 21 and the fixed scroll 23. Flows out into the high-pressure space 17 below. The oil is stored in the inner bottom of the lower cap 9 corresponding to the lower space 91 through the inner wall of the casing body 5 and the gap of the drive motor 13. In this case, the high-pressure space 17 has a thin plate shape. Since the oil collector 24, the cup 26, and the like are installed, the oil can be recovered to the inner bottom portion of the lower cap 9 while preventing entry into the discharge pipe.
Next, when the five types of scroll compressors provided with various types of fixed scrolls including the fixed scroll 23 according to the present embodiment are operated, the closest state to the through hole near the tip of the wrap described above An experiment was conducted to investigate the maximum stress that acts on the part facing the surface. The effect of this embodiment is demonstrated referring [Table 1] which shows the result. Here, among the fixed scrolls shown in the specifications 1 to 6, the specification 1 is usually a general low output type, and the specification 2 is a general high output type. . The specification 5 shows the fixed scroll 23 used in the present embodiment.

As can be seen from Table 1 above, the specification 5 corresponding to the fixed scroll of this embodiment has a scroll tooth height of Δh compared to the specification 1 (low output type) which is a general configuration. The discharge hole area is reduced by a factor of 0.9 and the vertical wall of the discharge hole is increased by a factor of 2.5. The knowledge that the force acting on the root of the tip Z where the maximum stress of the fixed scroll was generated can be reduced by 28% by adopting such a configuration. Therefore, according to the compressor 1 of this embodiment provided with the fixed scroll shown in the specification 5, it was confirmed that the strength of the end plate 23A in the vicinity of the root Z of the wrap 23B tip Z of the fixed scroll 23 was increased.
In addition, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment, A various deformation | transformation implementation is possible in the range which does not deviate from the summary as described in a claim. For example, the fixed scroll of the present invention is not limited to the specification 5 in Table 1 above, and may have any of the specifications 3, 4 and 6.
