Abstract

A compressor has a compressor body and a motor integrated with one another, with the structure in which the sub-assembly of the motor portion and the compressor body assembled by positioning centers of the motor and compressor casings with positioning pins. When the deformation of a flange surface of the motor casing is large on a side of the compressor casing, positioning pin holes may have positional dimensions where the positioning is difficult, and the rigidity of the motor casing is increased to avoid change to the dimensional positions of the pin holes of the motor casing after the sub-assembly process. Fastening seats to fasten a motor stator by use of fastening members and ribs to reinforce the fastening seats are thus provided inside the motor casing to increase rigidity of the motor casing and inhibit deformation of the positional dimensions of the positional pin holes.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A scroll type fluid machine comprising:
a fixed scroll;
an orbiting scroll that is provided oppositely to the fixed scroll and orbits;
a compressor casing that is secured to the fixed scroll at its opening end;
a drive shaft driving the orbiting scroll;
a motor that contains a motor stator, a motor casing, a bearing housing, and fastening bolts;
wherein an inner wall of the motor casing projects to form a projection, fastening seats, and ribs,
the fastening bolts fasten the bearing housing, the motor stator, and the fastening seats, in that order,
the projection contacts with the motor stator from a compressor casing side, and each of the ribs keeps a distance between one of the respective fastening seats and the projection.

2. The scroll type fluid machine according to claim 1 , wherein the fastening seats are located apart from the projection in an axial direction of the drive shaft.

3. The scroll type fluid machine according to claim 2 , wherein the ribs couple the projection and the fastening seats integrally with each other.

4. The scroll type fluid machine according to claim 1 , wherein first pin holes are provided to an attachment portion of the compressor casing, the attachment portion being used as a mating surface for the compressor casing and the motor casing, second pin holes are provided to a flange surface of the motor casing, the flange surface being used as a mating face of the compressor casing and the motor casing, and the first and second pin holes are coupled using positioning pins to fasten the compressor casing and the motor casing to one another.

5. The scroll type fluid machine according to claim 2 , wherein first pin holes are provided to an attachment portion of the compressor casing, the attachment portion being used as a mating surface for the compressor casing and the motor casing, second pin holes are provided to a flange surface of the motor casing, the flange surface being used as a mating face of the compressor casing and the motor casing, and the first and second pin holes are coupled using positioning pins to fasten the compressor casing and the motor casing to one another.

6. The scroll type fluid machine according to claim 3 , wherein first pin holes are provided to an attachment portion of the compressor casing, the attachment portion being used as a mating surface for the compressor casing and the motor casing, second pin holes are provided to a flange surface of the motor casing, the flange surface being used as a mating face of the compressor casing and the motor casing, and the first and second pin holes are coupled using positioning pins to fasten the compressor casing and the motor casing to one another.

7. The scroll type fluid machine according to claim 1 comprising:
rotation preventing mechanisms that prevent rotation of the orbiting scroll,
wherein a notch is provided on the motor casing to communicate with an inside between the motor stator and the rotation preventing mechanisms.

8. The scroll type fluid machine according to claim 1 , wherein a bearing that supports the drive shaft is provided.

9. The scroll type fluid machine according to claim 1 , wherein the compressor casing forms an outer shell, first pin holes are provided to an attachment portion of the compressor casing, the attachment portion is used as mating face of the compressor casing and the motor casing, second pin holes are provided to a flange surface of the motor casing, the flange surface is used as mating surfaces of the compressor casing and the motor casing, and the first and second pin holes are coupled by positioning pins to fasten the compressor casing to the motor casing.

10. The compressor according to claim 9 , wherein a notch is provided on the motor casing to communicate with an inside.
