Definitions

  • This invention relates to hermetically sealed refrigeration compressors, and more particularly to an oil distribution system for such compressors adapted to conduct heat energy from the cylinder heads within the compressor housings.
  • One technique for maintaining the discharge valve temperature low enough to prevent an accumulation of carbon deposits is to transfer heat energy from the cylinder head expeditiously. This invention accomplishes such heat transfer by bathing the cylinder head with a flow of oil.
  • the present invention remedies the above problem of extremely high cylinder head temperatures by providing an oil deflector on the cylinder head, which is preferably cast of aluminum, to direct slung oil to the cylinder head side and end exterior surfaces to conduct heat therefrom. To insure that a portion of the slung oil collects and flows downwardly over the end surfaces of the cylinder head the deflector is provided with at least one opening therein through which some of the slung oil may pass. Also provided with the present invention is an opening disposed through the side of an elongated, hollow body extending upwardly from the oil passage in the top of the crankshaft. The hole is disposed approximately level with the deflector on the cylinder head to provide a generally horizontal spray of oil thereto upon rotation of the crankshaft. The position of the hole in the tube may be varied above the oil deflector to compensate for varying centrifugal speeds and angular adjustments of the elongated, hollow body.
  • the present invention provides in combination with a compressor including a hermetically sealed housing having a crankcase therein with a cylinder disposed in the crankcase and a sump in the bottom of the housing, a crankshaft rotatably received in the crankcase and having a piston operably connected thereto and disposed in the cylinder, the crankshaft having centrifugal pump means connected to its bottom portion and disposed in the sump and having means connected to its upper portion for slinging lubricant radially outwardly therefrom, a lubricant deflector device comprising means transversely upstanding from the cylinder to direct a portion of the lubricant slung by the slinging means to the cylinder to conduct heat energy therefrom.
  • Fig. 1 is a sectional view of Fig. 2 along line 1-1 and viewed in the direction of the arrows;
  • Fig. 2 is a broken-away, top plan view of Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 3 is a broken-away, elevational view of the upper portion of a compressor viewed from the left side of Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 4 is an internal view of the cylinder head of the compressor
  • Fig. 5 is a sectional view of Fig. 4 along line 5-5 as viewed in the direction of the arrows; and Fig. 6 is a side elevational view of an oil tube disposed in the oil passage of a crankshaft.
  • conventional compressor 8 comprises a lower housing 10 and upper housing 12, which may be welded or brazed at seam 14.
  • crankcase 16 mounted within compressor 8 is crankcase 16 having crankshaft 18 rotatably received therethrough, and a motor 20 comprising rotor 22 secured to crankshaft 18 and stator 24 with field windings 26.
  • crankshaft 18 has closed- loop end 28 of connecting rod 30 connected thereto and which has its opposite end connected by wrist pin 32 and spring clip 34 to piston 36 disposed in cylinder 38 of crankcase 16.
  • Cylinder 38 has connected thereto gasket 40, leaf plate 42, valve plate 44, gasket 46, and cylinder head 48 by four bolts 50.
  • the piston- cylinder arrangement is dynamically balanced by counterweight 52 connected to crankshaft 18.
  • crankshaft 18 Disposed in lower housing 10, along with refrigerant tubing 54, is oil pump 56 which is connected to the bottom end portion of crankshaft 18 in oil sump 58.
  • Crankshaft 18 has axially disposed therein oil passage 60 and upper oil passage 62 for delivering oil to lubricate typical points, such as main bearing 64 and thrust bearing 66.
  • compressor 8 During operation , very high temperatures exist within compressor 8 causing the components therein, for example, motor 20, crankcase main bearing 64, crankshaft bearing 66, and most particularly cylinder head 48 to become extremely hot, thereby requiring cooling.
  • oil pump 56 pumping oil from oil sump 58 upwardly through oil passage 60 to not only lubricate points, such as crankcase main bearing 64 and crankshaft bearing 66, but also to conduct heat energy from motor 20, crankcase main bearing 64, crankshaft bearing 66, and other parts connected or in close proximity to crankshaft 18.
  • oil pump 56 pumping oil from oil sump 58 upwardly through oil passage 60 to not only lubricate points, such as crankcase main bearing 64 and crankshaft bearing 66, but also to conduct heat energy from motor 20, crankcase main bearing 64, crankshaft bearing 66, and other parts connected or in close proximity to crankshaft 18.
  • oil slinger tube 68 which is fitted in opening 63 of upper oil passage 62 in the top end of crankshaft 18.
  • slinger 68 is angularly disposed relative to the rotational axis of crankshaft 18.
  • Slinger 68 is of a predetermined length for reasons which will be discussed below and has opening 70 disposed therein, which, as measured from the rotational axis of crankshaft 18, has an effective radius longer than the effective radius of crankshaft 18.
  • slinger 68 is made of a rigid material that allows it to be angularly oriented from the vertical to direct the spray of oil away from top surface 75 and toward side surfaces 73 of upper housing 12. Furthermore, should certain compressor parts be disposed above the top end of crankshaft 18, as illustrated in Fig. 1, slinger 68 may be manufactured having a predetermined length which will insure opening 70 being above such parts, thereby preventing the existence of any obstruction in the path of the oil being slung by slinger 68.
  • slinger 68 due to its angular orientation relative to the rotational axis of crankshaft 18 and the increased effective radius of opening 70, is able to sling the oil against the surfaces 73 of upper housing 12. In addition, slinger 68 is bent to allow directional control of the spray path of the oil exiting opening 70 for various compressor models. It was earlier mentioned that cylinder head 48 experiences extremely high temperatures during the operation of compressor 8. This is primarily due to the temperature existing within the interior space of compressor 8 and the high temperatures produced within cylinder 38 upon compression of gaseous refrigerant. Conventional means to alleviate the extremely high temperatures experienced by cylinder head 48 include disposing a plurality of fins 78 on cylinder head 48 to conduct the heat energy therefrom to the interior space of compressor 8.
  • bleed holes 80 and 81 are disposed in the side of oil slinger tube 68, with bleed hole 80 facing radially outwardly therefrom. Because slinger 68 rotates with crankshaft 18, bleed hole 80 will always rotate facing towards upper housing 12. This permits a portion of the oil traveling upwardly through slinger 68 to be slung generally horizontally, radially outwardly through bleed hole 80. As slinger 68 rotates past cylinder head 48, a spray of oil is slung from bleed hole 80 onto cylinder head for cooling purposes. Little oil is slung from hole 81 since it faces radially inwardly towards the rotational axis of crankshaft 18. Hole 81 is present only because of manufacturing expediency.
  • a deflector and heat sink 82 having slots 84 disposed therein is transversely disposed on the top surface of cylinder head 48. Consequently, upon slinger 68 rotating past cylinder head 48 a portion of oil is caught by deflector 82 and caused to flow over the surfaces of cylinder head 48 adjacent valve plate 44, while at the same time allowing a remaining portion of the oil to pass through slots 84 and to flow over end portion 49 of cylinder head 48 and ribs 78.
  • deflector 82 is transversely disposed on the top surface portion of cylinder head 48 adjacent gasket 46.
  • Deflector 82 could be disposed on the top surface of cylinder head 48 adjacent end portion 49, however, due to the small confines generally existing between cylinder head 48 and upper housing 12, it has been found that deflector 82 performs its desired function most efficiently when disposed adjacent gasket 46.
  • deflector 82 is of a predetermined height and desirably disposed away from housing 10 to allow for production tolerences.
