Abstract

In a sealed compressor, electrically-operated element ( 104 ) and compressive element ( 106 ) driven by electrically-operated element ( 104 ) are housed in the inside of sealed container ( 102 ). Compressive element ( 106 ) includes shaft ( 126 ) formed of main shaft ( 136 ) and eccentric shaft ( 134 ), and cylinder block ( 128 ) having; bearing ( 144 ) which pivotally supports main shaft ( 136 ) of shaft ( 126 ); and cylinder ( 142 ). Further, the compressive element ( 106 ) includes piston ( 130 ) which is movable in the cylinder ( 142 ) in a reciprocating manner, and connecting portion ( 132 ) which connects eccentric shaft ( 134 ) and piston ( 130 ) to each other. Electrically-operated element ( 104 ) is formed of an outer-rotor-type motor which includes stator ( 150 ), and rotor ( 152 ) which is disposed coaxially with stator ( 150 ) so as to surround an outer periphery of stator ( 150 ). Further, non-sliding portion ( 146 ) is provided between main shaft ( 136 ) and bearing ( 144 ), and stator ( 150 ) is fixed to outer peripheral portion ( 162 ) of bearing ( 144 ) which corresponds to non-sliding portion ( 146 ).

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A sealed compressor, wherein an electrically-operated element and a compressive element driven by the electrically-operated element are housed in a sealed container,
the compressive element includes:
a shaft having a main shaft and an eccentric shaft;
a cylinder block including: a bearing which pivotally supports the main shaft of the shaft; and a cylinder;
a piston which is movable in the cylinder in a reciprocating manner; and
a connecting portion which connects the eccentric shaft and the piston to each other,
the electrically-operated element is formed of an outer-rotor-type motor which includes: a stator; and a rotor which is disposed coaxially with the stator so as to surround an outer periphery of the stator,
a sliding portion is provided between the main shaft and the bearing,
a non-sliding portion is provided between the main shaft and the bearing, and
the stator is fixed to an outer peripheral portion of the bearing which corresponds to the non-sliding portion,
wherein a length of the non-sliding portion is set larger than a fixing margin where the stator is fixed to the outer peripheral portion of the bearing.

2. The sealed compressor according to claim 1 , wherein the non-sliding portion is formed between an upper end and a lower end of the sliding portion.

3. The sealed compressor according to claim 2 , wherein the non-sliding portion is provided on a portion of the sliding portion, and the non-sliding portion is formed by narrowing an outer diameter of the main shaft.

4. A refrigeration device comprising a refrigerant circuit formed by annularly connecting a compressor, a heat-radiator, a pressure reduction device and a heat absorbing device to each other by pipes, wherein the compressor is the sealed compressor according to claim 1 .

5. A sealed compressor, comprising:
a shaft having a main shaft and an eccentric shaft;
a bearing which pivotally supports the main shaft of the shaft;
a cylinder;
a piston which is movable in the cylinder in a reciprocating manner;
a connecting portion which connects the eccentric shaft and the piston to each other,
a non-sliding portion which is provided between the main shaft and the bearing; and
an outer-rotor-type motor including:
a stator which is fixed to an outer peripheral portion of the bearing which corresponds to the non-sliding portion; and
a rotor which is disposed coaxially with the stator so as to surround an outer periphery of the stator,
wherein a length of the non-sliding portion is set larger than a fixing margin where the stator is fixed to the outer peripheral portion of the bearing.

6. The sealed compressor according to claim 2 , wherein the non-sliding portion formed by increasing an inner diameter of the bearing is formed on a portion of the sliding portion.
