Abstract

A compressor includes a cylinder, a shaft including a main shaft and an eccentric part, a roller part having an inner circumferential surface fitted on an outer circumferential surface of the eccentric part so as to make an orbital motion, a blade part along with the roller part partitioning inside of the cylinder chamber into low and high pressure chambers, and sliding bearing parts fixed to the cylinder and including cylindrical surfaces supporting the main shaft. A relation (φDs−φDr)/ 2 <ε is satisfied. φDs is an inside diameter of the inner circumferential surface of the cylinder chamber, φDr is an outside diameter of the outer circumferential surface of the roller part, and ε is an eccentricity of a central axis of the eccentric part relative to a central axis of the main shaft. Central axes of the cylindrical surfaces are eccentric relative to a central axis of the inner circumferential surface.

First claim

1 . A compressor comprising:
a cylinder including a cylinder chamber with an inner circumferential surface that is a substantially cylindrical surface; a shaft including a main shaft and an eccentric part, which is eccentric relative to the main shaft; a roller part having an inner circumferential surface fitted on an outer circumferential surface of the eccentric part, the outer circumferential surface being a substantially cylindrical surface, and being placed in the cylinder chamber so as to make an orbital motion; a blade part along with the roller part partitioning inside of the cylinder chamber into a low-pressure chamber and a high-pressure chamber; and bearing parts fixed to the cylinder and respectively including cylindrical surfaces for supporting the main shaft, a relation (φDs−φDr)/2<ε being satisfied, in which
φDs is an inside diameter of the inner circumferential surface of the cylinder chamber,
φDr is an outside diameter of the outer circumferential surface of the roller part, and
ε feeing is an eccentricity of a central axis of the eccentric part relative to a central axis of the main shaft,
central axes of the cylindrical surfaces of the bearing parts being eccentric relative to a central axis of the inner circumferential surface of the cylinder chamber, and the bearing parts being sliding bearings.

2 . The compressor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
clearances between the cylindrical surfaces of the bearing parts and the outer circumferential surface of the main shaft are sized such that the main shaft is moveable so as to prevent the roller part from colliding with the inner circumferential surface of the cylinder chamber.

3 . The compressor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
the roller part and the blade part are integrated to form a roller piston, and both side surfaces of the blade part are swingably supported by swing bushes.

4 . The compressor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
the roller part and the blade part are separated, the blade part protrudes into the cylinder chamber so as to be capable of reciprocating, and an extremity of the blade part is in sliding contact with the outer circumferential surface of the roller part.

5 . The compressor as claimed in claim 3 , wherein
the central axes of the cylindrical surfaces of the bearing parts are eccentric relative to the central axis of the inner circumferential surface of the cylinder chamber at a central angle in a range from 270° to 360° in a section orthogonal to the central axis of the inner circumferential surface of the cylinder chamber
with the central axis of the cylinder chamber defined as an origin,
with a straight line linking a central axis of swing of the swing bushes and the central axis of the cylinder chamber or a straight line linking a center plain between both the side surfaces of the blade part separate from the roller part and the central axis of the cylinder chamber defined as a reference line, and
with an angle formed by a radius vector that extends from the origin and that revolves in a direction of the orbital motion of the roller part with the reference line in the direction of the orbital motion defined as the central angle.

6 . The compressor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
refrigerant that is made to flow into the cylinder chamber is R32.

7 . The compressor as claimed in claim 4 ,
the central axes of the cylindrical surfaces of the bearing parts are eccentric relative to the central axis of the inner circumferential surface of the cylinder chamber at a central angle in a range from 270° to 360° in a section orthogonal to the central axis of the inner circumferential surface of the cylinder chamber
with the central axis of the cylinder chamber defined as an origin,
with a straight line linking a central axis of swing of the swing bushes and the central axis of the cylinder chamber or a straight line linking a center plain between both the side surfaces of the blade part separate from the roller part and the central axis of the cylinder chamber defined as a reference line, and
with an angle formed by a radius vector that extends from the origin and that revolves in a direction of the orbital motion of the roller part with the reference line in the direction of the orbital motion defined as the central angle.
