Compressor

摘要

A compressor that allows a discharge port to assume a large circumference and a large area at an exit end thereof so as to optimize the discharge resistance and the pressure-receiving area and assuring improved volumetric efficiency through reduced dead volume, includes a discharge port 5b, an entrance end of which opens into a compression chamber and an exit end that is able to open and shut with a discharge valve 43. The discharge port 5b is constituted with a recessed portion 50 formed to achieve a predetermined depth from the exit end and a through portion 51 having a smaller sectional area than the sectional area of the recessed portion 50. The through portion 51 is formed so that its width measured along a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the discharge valve is greater than its width measured along the longitudinal direction of the discharge valve 43.

主权项

1. A compressor, comprising:
a flat valve plate extending radially outwardly along a radial axis from a valve plate center point; and a discharge valve operably connected to the flat valve plate, wherein the flat valve plate has opposing parallel flat surfaces and a discharge port formed therethrough between the opposing parallel flat surfaces, an entrance end of which opens into a compression chamber and an exit end of which is configured to be opened and shut with the discharge valve, wherein the discharge valve is a reed valve comprising at least one flexible finger extending along the radial axis and away from the valve plate center point, wherein the discharge port is formed with a non-tapered recessed portion extending partially into the flat valve plate from the exit end to define a non-tapered recessed opening and a non-tapered through portion extending partially into the flat valve plate from the entrance end to define a non-tapered through opening, the non-tapered recessed opening and the non-tapered through opening being in fluid communication with each other and sized to form a stepped-down landing interiorly of the flat valve plate extending parallel to and between the opposing parallel flat surfaces where the non-tapered through opening and the non-tapered recessed opening interface one another and wherein the non-tapered through opening extends outwardly from and about a through opening center point and the non-tapered recessed opening extends outwardly from and about a recessed opening center point, wherein the through opening center point and the recessed opening center point are disposed on the radial axis in an offset manner such that recessed opening center point is located closer to the valve plate center point than the through opening center point, wherein the stepped-down landing has an arcuate narrow segment including a narrowest portion and an arcuate broad segment including a broadest portion, the arcuate narrow segment and the arcuate broad segment connected together to form a continuous loop and wherein respective ones of the narrowest and the broadest portions extend along the radial axis with the broadest portion being disposed between the narrowest portion and the valve plate center point.
