First Embodiment

As an example of a scroll fluid machine according to the invention, a scroll compressor according to a first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5 .

The entire configuration of the scroll fluid machine according to this embodiment will be described using FIG. 1 . A compressor body 1 employs a scroll air compressor, and includes a casing 2 , a stationary scroll 3 , an orbiting scroll 4 , a drive shaft 9 , a crank 10 , and a rotation preventing machine 13 which will be described below.

The casing 2 forming an outer shell of the compressor body 1 is formed as a bottomed cylindrical body of which one side in an axial direction is closed and the other side in the axial direction is opened as illustrated in FIG. 1 . In other words, the casing 2 is mainly configured by a cylindrical portion 2 A of which the other side (near the stationary scroll 3 described below) in the axial direction is opened, an annular bottom 2 B which is integrally formed in one side in the axial direction of the cylindrical portion 2 A and extends inward in a radial direction, and a cylindrical bearing mounting portion 2 C which protrudes toward both sides in the axial direction from an inner circumference side of the bottom 2 B.

In addition, the orbiting scroll 4 , the crank 10 , and the rotation preventing machine 13 described below are stored in the cylindrical portion 2 A of the casing 2 . In addition, on a side near the bottom 2 B of the casing 2 , a plurality of the rotation preventing machines 13 (only one is illustrated in FIG. 1 ) are provided in a gap with an end plate 4 A of the orbiting scroll 4 to be disposed later at a predetermined interval therebetween in a circumferential direction.

The stationary scroll 3 is a scroll member which is provided to be fixed to the end side of the opening of the casing 2 (the cylindrical portion 2 A). Then, as illustrated in FIG. 1 , the stationary scroll 3 is mainly configured by an end plate 3 A which is formed in a disk shape, a spiral wrap 3 B which is erected in the surface of the end plate 3 A, and a cylindrical support portion 3 C which is provided on an outer circumferential side of the end plate 3 A to surround the wrap 3 B from the outer side in the radial direction and fixed to the end side of the opening of the casing 2 (the cylindrical portion 2 A) using a plurality of bolts (not illustrated).

The orbiting scroll 4 of the other scroll member is provided facing the stationary scroll 3 in the axial direction so as to be turned in the casing 2 . Then, as illustrated in FIG. 1 , the orbiting scroll 4 is mainly configured by the end plate 4 A of a disk shape, a wrap 4 B which is erected in the surface of the end plate 4 A, a plurality of cooling fins 4 C which are erected on the opposite side to the wrap 4 B, and a boss plate portion 5 which protrudes to a rear surface (a surface on the opposite side to the wrap 4 B) of the end plate 4 A and is mounted in the crank 10 described later through an orbiting bearing 12 .

In addition, on the outer side in the radial direction of the boss plate portion 5 , the rotation preventing machines 13 described later are disposed with a predetermined interval therebetween in the circumferential direction of the orbiting scroll 4 in a gap with the bottom 2 B of the casing 2 . Then, the boss plate portion 5 of the orbiting scroll 4 is disposed such that the center thereof is decentered in the radial direction by a predetermined dimension (turning radius) with respect to the center of the stationary scroll 3 .

A plurality of compressors 6 are defined between the wrap 3 B of the stationary scroll 3 and the wrap 4 B of the orbiting scroll 4 . Each compressor 6 is formed such that the wrap 3 B of the stationary scroll 3 is disposed to be overlapped with the wrap 4 B of the orbiting scroll 4 as illustrated in FIG. 1 and each compressor 6 is interposed by the end plates 3 A and 4 A between these wraps 3 B and 4 B.

An intake port 7 is provided on an outer circumferential side of the stationary scroll 3 . The intake port 7 absorbs the air from the outer portion through an air filter 7 A for example. The air is continuously compressed along the turning operation of the orbiting scroll 4 in each compressor 6 .

A discharge port 8 is provided in the center of the stationary scroll 3 . The discharge port 8 is used to discharge the compressed air from the compressor 6 on the innermost side in the radial direction among the plurality of compressors 6 toward a storage tank described later (not illustrated). In other words, the orbiting scroll 4 is driven by an electric motor (not illustrated) or the like through the drive shaft 9 and the crank 10 . The orbiting scroll turns about the stationary scroll 3 in a state of being restricted in rotation by the rotation preventing machine 13 described later.

With this configuration, the compressor 6 on the outer side in the radial direction among the plurality of compressors 6 absorbs the air from the intake port 7 of the stationary scroll 3 . The air is continuously compressed in each of the compressors 6 . Then, the compressor 6 on the inner side in the radial direction is used to discharge the compressed air from the discharge port 8 located at the center of the end plate 3 A to the outer portion.

The drive shaft 9 is provided to be turned through a load side bearing 20 disposed in the bearing mounting portion 2 C of the casing 2 near the compressor body 1 and an anti-load side bearing 21 disposed away from the compressor body 1 . The drive shaft 9 is disposed such that the base end side (a side in the axial direction) thereof protruding to the outer portion of the casing 2 is detachably connected to a drive source of the electric motor (not illustrated) or the like, and is provided to be rotatably driven by the electric motor. In addition, a bearing housing 5 A in the boss plate portion 5 of the orbiting scroll 4 is connected to the tip end side (the other side in the axial direction) of the drive shaft 9 to be turned through the crank 10 and the orbiting bearing 12 , described later.

The crank 10 decentered to the center of the drive shaft 9 is integrally provided on the tip end side of the drive shaft 9 . The crank 10 is connected to the bearing housing 5 A of the boss plate portion 5 of the orbiting scroll 4 through the orbiting bearing 12 described later. Then, the crank 10 is rotated integrally to the drive shaft 9 . The rotation at that time is converted to a turning operation of the orbiting scroll 4 through the orbiting bearing 12 .

The plurality of rotation preventing machines 13 is provided between the bottom 2 B of the casing 2 and a rear surface side of the orbiting scroll 4 (only one is illustrated in FIG. 1 ). For example, the rotation preventing machines 13 is configured by an auxiliary crank shaft 13 A, and auxiliary crank bearings 13 B and 13 C which are respectively disposed on sides near the casing 2 and the orbiting scroll 4 . Then, the auxiliary crank bearings 13 B and 13 C are stored in bearing housings 2 D and 5 B which are provided in the casing 2 and the boss plate portion 5 of the orbiting scroll 4 respectively.

Then, the rotation preventing machine 13 is used to prevent the rotation of the orbiting scroll 4 and to receive a thrust load from the orbiting scroll 4 by the bottom 2 B of the casing 2 . Further, for example, a ball coupling mechanism or an Oldham's shaft coupling mechanism may be used as the rotation preventing machine 13 instead of an auxiliary crank mechanism.

A discharge pipe 14 is provided to be connected to the discharge port 8 of the stationary scroll 3 . The discharge pipe 14 forms a discharge fluid path which communicates between the storage tank (not illustrated) and the discharge port 8 .

In the drive shaft 9 , a balance weight 11 is provided to stabilize the turning operation of the orbiting scroll 4 . In a case where the compressor is operated, the balance weight 11 rotates integrally to the drive shaft 9 .

The orbiting bearing 12 is disposed between the bearing housing 5 A of the boss plate portion 5 of the orbiting scroll 4 and the crank 10 . The orbiting bearing 12 supports the crank 10 with respect to the bearing housing 5 A of the boss plate portion 5 of the orbiting scroll 4 . The orbiting bearing 12 is used to compensate the turning operation of the orbiting scroll 4 in a predetermined radius with respect to an axial line of the drive shaft 9 .

FIG. 2 illustrates the boss plate portion 5 according to this embodiment. FIGS. 3 and 4 illustrate cross-sectional views taken along lines A-A and B-B of the bearing housings 5 A and 5 B of the boss plate portion 5 .

The orbiting bearing 12 is surrounded by the bearing housing 5 A of the boss plate portion 5 , a seal member 15 , and the crank 10 of the drive shaft 9 . The seal member 15 is provided between the bearing housing 5 A of the boss plate portion 5 to seal a lubricant of the orbiting bearing 12 and the crank 10 of the drive shaft 9 .

The auxiliary crank bearing 13 C is surrounded by the bearing housing 5 B of the boss plate portion 5 , a pressing plate 13 D, a seal member 13 F, and the auxiliary crank shaft 13 A. The auxiliary crank bearing 13 C is inserted to the bearing housing 5 B of the boss plate portion 5 , and is strongly fastened by a flathead bolt 13 E (illustrated in FIG. 1 ) together with the pressing plate 13 D. The depth of the bearing housing 5 B is set to be smaller than the height of the auxiliary crank bearing 13 B. The pressing plate 13 D is fastened by the flathead bolt 13 E so as to pre-load an outer wheel 13 G of the auxiliary crank bearing 13 C. The seal member 13 F is provided between the pressing plate 13 D and the auxiliary crank shaft 13 A in order to seal the lubricant of the auxiliary crank bearing 13 C.

In this embodiment, as pipes to supply the lubricant from the outside to the orbiting bearing 12 and the rotation preventing machine 13 through the bearing housing 5 A and the bearing housing 5 B in the boss plate portion 5 and through the side surface of the bearing housing 2 D of the casing 2 , a lubricant feeding passage 17 and a grease nipple 16 communicating to the outer portion are provided in each of the bearing housings 5 A, 5 B, and 2 D to face different directions. In this embodiment, the grease nipple 16 is structured to face the right and left directions when a scroll compressor is viewed from the stationary scroll.

The grease nipple 16 is an injection hole which includes a connection portion to connect a lubricant feeding tool such as a grease gun. The grease nipple 16 is structured to pass the lubricant from the outer portion toward the inside of the bearing housing 5 A and the bearing housing 5 B. The grease nipple has a function of inhibiting a reverse flowing of the lubricant from the inside of the bearing housing 5 A and the bearing housing 5 B to the outside. In addition, the grease nipple 16 may be structured to be variable in direction as needed. With such a configuration, the direction of the tip end of the grease nipple can be freely changed regardless of the direction of the lubricant feeding passage 17 , and workability is improved. In addition, the grease nipple 16 is provided detachably, and can be replaced as needed.

The lubricant can be replenished from different directions to the orbiting bearing 12 and the auxiliary crank bearing 13 C by providing two grease nipples 16 . With this configuration, the workability during maintenance can be improved. FIG. 5 illustrates a perspective view during maintenance. For example, in a case where there is an obstacle on the left side of the scroll compressor, the grease may be replenished only from the right side. In a case where there is an obstacle on the right side, the grease may be simply replenished only from the left side without any remaking. In addition, a third grease nipple (not illustrated) may be provided in an upper direction as well as the right and left direction. In this case, even in a case where there are obstacles on the right and left sides, and thus the grease is hard to be replenished, the replenishment can be made from the upper direction, so that it is improved in convenience. Therefore, the number of grease nipples 16 is not limited to “2”, but may be “3” or more. In addition, usually, not the grease nipple 16 , but a lock screw with a hexagon hole or a rubber plug may be mounted to the lubricant feeding passage 17 . In that case, the grease may be replenished after removing the lock screw or the plug.

An opening is provided in the stationary scroll 3 or the casing 2 , or between the stationary scroll 3 and the casing 2 . Then, the tip end of the grease nipple 16 faces a direction to the opening which is provided in the stationary scroll 3 or the casing 2 , or between the stationary scroll 3 and the casing 2 . With such a configuration, the lubricant can be replenished through the grease nipple 16 by inserting a tool such as a nozzle from the opening without removing the stationary scroll 3 . With this configuration, the workability during maintenance can be improved. In addition, in a case where a plurality of openings are provided in the stationary scroll 3 or the casing 2 , or between the stationary scroll 3 and the casing 2 , a plurality of grease nipples 16 may be provided to face different openings. With this configuration, even in a case where there is an obstacle in a direction facing one opening, the lubricant can be supplied from the other opening in a direction where no obstacle exists.

A straight line connecting the opening provided in the stationary scroll 3 or the casing 2 , or between the stationary scroll 3 and the casing 2 with the tip end of the grease nipple 16 provided in the housing 5 A for the orbiting bearing 12 passes between two rotation preventing machines 13 . With the grease nipple 16 disposed in such a direction, the lubricant can be supplied from the opening to the grease nipple 16 without blocking the rotation preventing machine 13 when viewed from the opening.

As described above, according to this embodiment, as a pipe to supply the lubricant to the orbiting bearing 12 and the rotation preventing machine 13 , the plurality of the lubricant feeding passages 17 and the grease nipples 16 are provided in the boss plate portion 5 , and the tip ends of the grease nipples 16 are set to face different directions. Therefore, the lubricant can be easily replenished from a plurality of directions during maintenance. Therefore, the grease can be simply replenished from a direction where no obstacle exists without need of separate design and regardless of installation environments of the scroll compressor. In other words, according to this embodiment, it is possible to improve reliability and workability.

In addition, in this embodiment, the description has been given about an example in which the plurality of lubricant feeding passages 17 and grease nipples 16 are provided as a pipe to supply the lubricant to the orbiting bearing 12 and the rotation preventing machine 13 . However, the invention is not limited to the above configuration, and a plurality of injection holes to supply the lubricant to the load side bearing 20 or the anti-load side bearing 21 supporting the drive shaft 9 may be provided with respect to one bearing housing.

Second Embodiment

A scroll compressor according to a second embodiment of the invention will be described using FIG. 6 . The same configurations as those of the first embodiment will be assigned with the same symbols, and the descriptions thereof will be omitted. This embodiment has a feature in that there are provided a plurality of grease nipples 16 facing the same direction to supply the lubricant.

FIG. 6 illustrates the boss plate portion 5 in this embodiment. In this embodiment, two grease nipples 16 facing the same direction are disposed in the bearing housing 5 A for the orbiting bearing 12 . In a case where an lubricant is replenished by the grease nipple 16 , grease is attached to the tip end of the grease nipple 16 , and impurities such as dust may be easily attached to the grease nipple 16 . In this case, when the lubricant is replenished in the second time, the impurities at the tip end of the grease nipple 16 are mixed with the lubricant and enter the bearing housing 5 A, and cause a damage on the orbiting bearing 12 . To solve this problem, this embodiment is configured by two grease nipples facing the same direction. Therefore, the grease nipples 16 to be used in the first and second replenishments of the lubricant can be divided, so that it is possible to improve reliability of the orbiting bearing 12 while preventing the impurities from being mixed.

In addition, the grease nipple 16 in the first embodiment has been described to have the function of inhibiting a reverse flowing of the lubricant. In this embodiment, the injection holes having no the function of inhibiting a reverse flowing of the lubricant may be used instead of the plurality of grease nipples 16 . One of the injection holes facing the same direction may be used to supply the lubricant, and the other may be used to discharge the lubricant. With this configuration, it is possible to remove the mixed impurities while supplying the lubricant.

In addition, the plurality of grease nipples 16 may be further disposed to face different directions similarly to the first embodiment, so that the lubricant can be replenished regardless of installation environments. Further, it is possible to improve workability and reliability while preventing the impurities from being mixed even in the second time of replenishment. In addition, this embodiment has been described using the structure in which the grease nipples 16 are mounted to face the same direction as that of the bearing housing 5 A as an example. The plurality of grease nipples may be provided to face the same direction similarly even in the bearing housings 5 B and 2 D for the rotation preventing machine 13 . In that case, it is possible to improve workability and reliability of the auxiliary crank bearings 13 C and 13 B.

Further, in a case where the opening is provided in the stationary scroll 3 or the casing 2 , or between the stationary scroll 3 and the casing 2 , the effects of this embodiment may be achieved if the grease nipples face the same opening even though the grease nipples do not face the same direction.

In this embodiment, the description has been given about an example in which two grease nipples facing the same direction are provided. However, the number of grease nipples is not limited to “2”, but may be “3” or more.

Third Embodiment

A scroll compressor according to a third embodiment of the invention will be described using FIGS. 7 to 9 . The same configurations as those of the first embodiment will be assigned with the same symbols, and the descriptions thereof will be omitted. This embodiment has a feature in that a projection 18 is provided in the bearing housing 5 B. FIG. 7 illustrates a rear view of the boss plate portion 5 in this embodiment. In this embodiment, the projection 18 protruding toward the end plate 4 A of the orbiting scroll 4 is provided in an end plate surface 5 C on a side near the end plate 4 A of the orbiting scroll 4 of the boss plate portion 5 . The plurality of grease nipples 16 are disposed in the projection 18 . FIG. 8 illustrates a cross-sectional view taken along line C-C of the bearing housing 5 B of the auxiliary crank in this embodiment. With the projection 18 protruding toward the end plate 4 A of the orbiting scroll 4 , the lubricant can be replenished even from the opposite side to the rotation axis of the drive shaft 9 of the scroll compressor. For example, the lubricant can be easily replenished to the bearing housing 5 B on the right side in FIG. 7 even from the left side in the drawing. In addition, with the projection 18 , a flowing direction of the lubricant becomes the same direction as that of a gap of the auxiliary crank bearing 13 C. Further, the lubricant can sufficiently flow in the bearing. Therefore, the reliability is improved. In addition, FIG. 9 illustrates a perspective view of the bearing housing 5 B. With the configuration of the projection 18 , a grease reservoir 18 A can be formed to store the lubricant in the projection 18 . By forming the grease reservoir 18 A, the amount of lubricant to be stored in the bearing housing is increased, and a period up to next maintenance can extend. In this embodiment, the description has been given about a case where the projection 18 is provided at a position corresponding to the bearing housing 5 B of the auxiliary crank bearing 13 B of the end plate surface 5 C of the boss plate portion 5 . However, the same effect may be achieved even in a case where the projection protruding toward the end plate 4 A of the orbiting scroll 4 is provided at a position corresponding to the bearing housing 5 A of the orbiting bearing 12 of the end plate surface 5 C of the boss plate portion 5 .

Fourth Embodiment

A scroll compressor according to a fourth embodiment of the invention will be described using FIGS. 10 to 14 . The same configurations as those of the first embodiment will be assigned with the same symbols, and the descriptions thereof will be omitted. This embodiment has a feature in that there is provided with a guide for supplying the lubricant. FIG. 10 illustrates a perspective view of the orbiting scroll 4 and the boss plate portion 5 . In this embodiment, the projection 18 is provided in the rear surface (on a side near the orbiting scroll 4 ) of the bearing housing 5 A. Two grease nipples 16 are disposed in the projection 18 . In addition, a guide 19 along a nozzle for supplying the grease is formed in the cooling fin 4 C which is in the rear surface of the end plate 4 A of the orbiting scroll 4 . With this configuration, the lubricant can be easily replenished even in a case where the grease nipple 16 disposed in the rear surface of the bearing housing 5 A of the boss plate portion 5 is not possible to be viewed. Further, it is possible to improve workability during maintenance.

FIGS. 11 to 14 illustrate modifications of this embodiment. In the modification illustrated in FIG. 11 , a guide 19 A is formed by making a part of the cooling fin 4 C low. In addition, in the modification illustrated in FIG. 12 , a guide 19 B is similarly formed by making a part of the end plate surface 5 C of the boss plate portion 5 dented. With such a configuration, the guide can be easily formed. In addition, in the modification illustrated in FIG. 13 , a guide 19 C is formed by making an interval of the cooling fins 4 C matched with the diameter of a nozzle of the grease gun 22 . In addition, in the modification illustrated in FIG. 14 , a guide 19 D is formed similarly by making a part of the casing 2 dented.

Hitherto, according to this embodiment, the workability during maintenance can be further improved compared to the first embodiment since the guide 19 is formed along the nozzle for supplying the grease.

In addition, according to this embodiment, the reliability and the maintenance performance can be further improved compared to the first and second embodiments since the projection 18 is provided in the boss plate portion 5 .

Fifth Embodiment

A scroll compressor according to a fifth embodiment of the invention will be described using FIG. 15 . The same configurations as those of the first embodiment will be assigned with the same symbols, and the descriptions thereof will be omitted.

FIG. 15 illustrates a top view of the casing 2 according to this embodiment. This embodiment has a feature in that a plurality of replenishment passages are provided as openings in the side surface of the casing 2 to replenish the lubricant to the bearing housing 5 B (not illustrated). A plurality of replenishment passages 23 serving as channels of the nozzles of the grease gun 22 are disposed in the side surface of the casing 2 with different nozzle-inserting directions in accordance with positions of the grease nipples 16 disposed in the bearing housing 5 B (not illustrated). With this configuration, the lubricant can be easily replenished to the grease nipple 16 disposed in the bearing housing 5 B. In addition, outside the maintenance hours, the replenishment passage 23 may be mounted with a rubber lid which is easily removed. With the rubber lid, it is possible to prevent that a cool air is leaked out of the replenishment passage 23 during the operation of the compressor. Further, since the rubber lid is easily removed, the workability during maintenance is not degraded.

In this embodiment, the replenishment passage 23 is provided in the side surface of the casing 2 . However, the installation is not limited to the casing 2 , and the replenishment passage may be provided in the stationary scroll 3 . In addition, the replenishment passage may be provided between the casing 2 and the stationary scroll 3 .

The embodiments described above have been described as merely exemplary to implement the invention. A technical scope of the invention should not be interpreted in a limited way by these embodiments. In other words, the invention may be implemented in various ways without departing from technical ideas or principal features. In addition, the invention may be implemented by combining a plurality of embodiments.

Further, the description has been given about the scroll fluid machine, but the invention is not limited to the scroll fluid machine. The invention may be applied to other fluid machines such as a reciprocating compressor and a screw compressor as long as a fluid machine body is driven by compressing or expanding a fluid by the drive shaft, and a bearing supporting the drive shaft or a bearing supporting a driven shaft driven along with the rotation of the drive shaft is provided.
