Definitions

  • the invention relates to a radial piston compressor, with pistons which can be moved radially back and forth in the piston chambers of a cylinder block rotatably mounted on a fixed axis, the radial movement of which is controlled by a rotatable guide part arranged with its axis of rotation eccentrically to the axis of rotation of the cylinder block, in the region of which from the cylinder block on the fixed axis covered area each a suction and pressure slot extending over a partial circumference of the fixed axis is provided and oil is introduced into the gap existing between the cylinder block and the fixed axis, in which the individual piston spaces in their the fixed Axis adjacent floor have an opening that is at least on the bottom side facing the axis in the same plane as the suction and pressure slot.
  • Such a radial piston compressor is known from DE-C-2710734.
  • oil is also sucked in when the medium to be compressed is sucked in, which also passes between the cylinder block and the fixed axis via the opening in the bottom of the piston chambers and seals gaps present here. It has now been shown that the sealing effect of the oil thus obtained between the cylinder block and the fixed axis is unsatisfactory.
  • the compressed gas displaces the oil and blows it out of the gap between the cylinder block and the fixed axis.
  • the invention has for its object to design a radial piston compressor of the type described above so that a perfect seal is achieved by the oil located between the cylinder block and the fixed axis.
  • the object is achieved in a radial piston compressor in which the cylinder block is mounted on the fixed axis by means of a roller bearing according to the invention in that the gap has a cross section which decreases in the direction from the suction slot to the pressure slot and the oil is targeted in the area of the largest Gap cross-section is introduced into the gap, the decreasing gap cross-section being achieved in that the roller bearing is arranged eccentrically with respect to the fixed axis, or in that in the fixed axis at least one groove is provided on both sides of the suction slot, at a distance from the suction slot, at a distance from the same , which extends in the circumferential direction approximately from the beginning of the suction slot at least to the end of the pressure slot and whose depth and / or width decreases from the suction slot to the pressure slot.
  • the oil Due to its viscosity, the oil is carried away by the rotating cylinder block.
  • the reduction in the gap cross-section at least at one point leads to an increase in the pressure acting on the oil, which can be made equal or greater than the pressure increase of the gas to be compressed by appropriately dimensioning the cross-sectional reduction. Since the oil located between the cylinder block and the fixed axle is now under high pressure, it can no longer be blown out of the gap by the gas to be compressed.
  • the reduction in the gap is determined by the design. If the compressor works with different gas pressures, the reduction in cross-section of the gap must be dimensioned such that the hydrodynamically generated oil pressure corresponds approximately to the highest occurring compressor pressure of the gas. If the compressor works with low compression pressures, however, the oil penetrates against the gas due to the higher pressure and flows off to the piston chambers. The oil entering the piston chambers is pushed out together with the gas at the end of the compression stroke, which can lead to oil strikes. In order to prevent the oil from penetrating into the piston chambers, an automatic adjustment of the respective oil pressure to the compression pressure is necessary.
  • perfect sealing by the oil located between the cylinder block and the fixed axis at changing compression pressure is achieved in that the gap has a cross-section that decreases in the direction from the suction slot to the pressure slot and the oil is targeted in the area of the largest gap cross-section in the Gap is introduced, the decreasing gap cross-section being achieved in that the surface covered by the cylinder block is formed on the fixed axis as a bearing surface on which the cylinder block is directly rotatably supported, the effective load-bearing area B - D of the cylinder block being 0.8 to 1.3.
  • a / sin 7-c where B corresponds to the effective z total width of the gap between the cylinder block and the fixed axis, D the diameter of the gap, A the cross-sectional area of a piston and Z the number of pistons lying in a radial plane and is at least equal to 2.
  • the radial load of the cylinder block averaged over the circumference as the reaction force of the piston forces is approximately proportional to the compression pressure of the gas. Under this radial load, the cylinder block adjusts to the fixed axis in such a way that the pressure force that builds up hydrodynamically in the gap between the cylinder block and the fixed axis is in equilibrium with this radial load.
  • At least one channel is provided on both sides of the suction slot, the cross-section of which is larger than the largest possible cross-section of the gap existing between the cylinder block and the fixed axis, and into the front end in the direction of its rotation Oil is introduced.
  • the oil pressure is raised somewhat above the suction pressure towards the end of the suction slot.
  • the oil pressure then increases towards the pressure slot in proportion to the compression pressure.
  • An increase in the oil pressure in the channel is achieved in that the channel has a reduced cross section towards the end of the suction slot.
  • the sealing effect of the oil films, both between the fixed axis and the rotating cylinder block and between the pistons and the walls of the piston chambers can be further improved in that the cylinder block and the fixed axis are arranged in a closed, pressure-resistant housing and the pressure in the housing lies between the suction pressure and the compression pressure of the compressor.
  • a pressure equilibrium is established in such a closed housing under the effect of gap losses flowing in on the compression side and on the suction side.
  • a certain pressure is required in the housing in order to minimize the gap and ventilation losses.
  • Such a pressure can be set in the housing in a simple manner in that a passage opening into the housing space is provided on the fixed axis in the peripheral region lying between the suction and pressure slot. The passage is arranged in the peripheral area at the point where the desired pressure prevails in the piston spaces.
  • the bell is expediently attached to the laminated core of the external rotor. Little assembly effort results from the fact that the bell is made in one piece with the short-circuit ring of the external rotor. Since such a bell has a smooth surface, only slight friction losses occur, so that the ventilation losses are also reduced by such a bell.
  • the radial piston compressor consists of a cylinder block 2 rotatably arranged on a fixed axis 1.
  • a plurality of cylindrical piston chambers 3 are formed on the cylinder block 2, evenly distributed over its circumference.
  • a freely movable piston 4 is arranged in each piston chamber 3.
  • the pistons 4 consist of a cup-shaped support part 5, into which a ball 6 is inserted, which rolls on a guide ring 7.
  • the guide ring 7 is carried by a guide part 8, which is mounted eccentrically on the fixed axis 1 with respect to the cylinder block 2.
  • an external rotor motor is provided as the drive motor 11, the inner stand 9 of which is fixed on the fixed axis 1.
  • the outer rotor 10 is coupled to the cylinder block 2 via arms 13 connected at the end to the relevant short-circuit ring 12. That formed from the radial piston compressor and the drive motor 11 te compressor unit is inserted into a pressure-resistant housing 14.
  • the fixed axis 1 is hollow and serves as a feed channel 15 for the gas to be compressed.
  • the feed channel 15 is connected to the suction slot 17 of the radial piston compressor.
  • the surface covered by the cylinder block 2 on the fixed axis 1 is designed as a bearing surface 19.
  • the cylinder block 2 is mounted directly on this bearing surface 19 by means of a ring 21 on which the individual cylinders 20 are arranged.
  • the ring 21 simultaneously forms the bottom of the piston chambers 3.
  • a bore channel 24 extending up to its lower end is also formed.
  • Two cross bores 25 are connected to this bore channel. These cross bores 25 extend to the bearing surface 19 and are covered by the ring 21. Via the bore channel 24, oil is supplied by means of a pump, which passes through the transverse bores 25 between the bearing surface 19 and the ring 21 of the cylinder block 2.
  • FIG. 2 shows the surface 26 of the fixed axis 1 covered by the cylinder block 2 in one development.
  • the suction slot 17 extends almost to the bottom dead center UT.
  • the pressure slot 18 is much shorter and ends at the top dead center OT.
  • the gas is compressed on the route between the suction and pressure slots 17 and 18.
  • a groove 27 is formed on both sides of the suction slot 17, which extends beyond the pressure slot 18.
  • the cross section of the groove 27 is reduced by two width gradations 28 and, as the sectional illustration according to FIG. 3 shows, by several depth gradations 29.
  • the oil introduced into the groove 27 through the transverse bore 25 is carried along by the cylinder block 2.
  • the oil is exposed to an ever higher pressure, which corresponds approximately to the compression pressure built up between the suction and pressure slots 17 and 18, or even higher if the groove cross-section is appropriately dimensioned is the compression pressure of the gas.
  • the provision of the described grooves 27 on both sides of the suction slot 17 and the pressure slot 18 is particularly advantageous in a radial piston compressor in which the cylinder block 2 is mounted on the fixed axis 1 by means of a roller bearing.
  • a groove 30 is formed on both sides of the suction opening 17 in the fixed axis 1.
  • the cross bores 25 connected to the bore channel 24 in turn open into the two channels 30.
  • B. a depth gradation 31 and run at its end, as can be seen from Fig. 5, in a slope 32.
  • the reduction in cross-section of the channel 30 caused by the depth gradation 31 and / or the bevel 32 again leads to an increase in the pressure of the oil introduced into the channel 30 via the transverse bore 25.
  • the grooves 30 only extend approximately to the end of the suction slot 17.
  • An increase in the oil pressure at the end of the groove 30 is also achieved when the cross-sectional reduction is not made within the groove 30, but rather the cross-section of the gap between the cylinder block 2 and the fixed axis 1 following the channel 30 is smaller than the channel cross section. Since the cylinder block 2 is mounted directly on the bearing surface 19, an eccentric adjustment of the cylinder block relative to the bearing surface 19 takes place due to the compression pressure prevailing in the piston chambers. This eccentric adjustment results in a ring between the ring 21 of the cylinder block 2 and the bearing surface 19 Width decreasing from the suction slot 17 to the pressure slot 18. In the channels 30 with reduced cross-section, the oil pressure is already raised slightly above the suction pressure of the gas towards the end of the suction slot 17. As a result of the gap narrowing further towards the pressure slot 18, the oil pressure and the compression pressure of the gas in the piston chambers 3 increase continuously.
  • a transverse slot 33 is formed in the bearing surface 19, which extends at least to below the opening 22 in the bottom of the piston spaces 3.
  • a connection between the transverse slot 33 and the outer space surrounding the compressor is established via an axial bore 34.
  • a satisfactory seal between the cylinder block 2 and the bearing surface 19 is achieved by an increase in the oil pressure in the gap between the cylinder block 2 and the bearing surface 19 corresponding to the increase in the compression pressure between the suction and the pressure slots 17 and 18.
  • the increase in the oil pressure can be brought about by various measures. If the cylinder block 2 is mounted on the fixed axis by means of a roller bearing, then the Suction slot 17 grooves 27 are provided, the cross section of which is reduced towards the pressure slot 18. As a result of this reduction in cross section, there is an increase in pressure for the oil entrained by the cylinder block 2.
  • the rolling bearing and the formation of the grooves 27 define both the dimensions of the gap between the cylinder block 2 and the surface 26 of the fixed axis 1 which it covers, and the reduction in cross section of the grooves 27. Accordingly, the same oil pressure is always generated regardless of the respective compression pressure. By appropriately designing the cross section of the grooves 27, this oil pressure can be dimensioned such that it is above the highest compression pressure. If the compressor works with low compression pressures, there is a risk that the oil will penetrate into the piston chambers 3.
  • a pressure between the intake pressure and the compression pressure is established in the pressure-resistant housing 14 enclosing the compression unit. Since gases which have a higher specific weight than air are often compressed in such radial piston compressors, the ventilation losses also increase sharply with the increased pressure in the pressure-resistant housing 14.
  • a bell 35 is attached to the outer rotor 10 of the drive motor 11, which bell covers the cylinder block 2 at least partially.
  • the gas located in the interior of the bell 35 is set in rotation and has only a low relative speed in relation to the cylinder block 2, which also rotates, so that there are only slight losses of potential.
  • only slight ventilation losses occur on the smooth outside of the bell 35 compared to the gas in the pressure-resistant housing 14.
  • the bell 35 can be produced together with the short-circuit ring 12 and the arms 13 in one operation. If the wall of the bell 35 is inclined slightly outwards towards the open end of the bell, such a bell can be used to separate contaminants present in the oil. The oil emerging from the gap between the cylinder block 2 and the bearing surface 19 drips or splashes into the bell 35. The centrifugal force caused by the rotation of the bell 35 allows the oil to flow off on the outwardly inclined wall of the bell 35 towards its open end . On the other hand, the impurities that are heavier than the oil stick to the bell wall. The cleaning effect can be improved further by appropriately designing the bell wall, for example applying a rough covering or one or more circumferential grooves.
