Scroll compressor

摘要

A scroll compressor is provided with a buffer portion (113b) having an increased diameter at an intermediate part of a discharge port (113). A refrigerant discharged from compression chambers (p) is introduced into the buffer portion (113b), and temporarily stays thereat. Then, the refrigerant is discharged to a discharge plenum (150), thereby reducing a pulsating pressure. Accordingly, noise occurring when the refrigerant discharged from the compression chambers (p) collides with the discharge plenum (150) is reduced, thereby greatly reducing noise of the scroll compressor.

主权项

1. A scroll compressor, comprising:
a fixed scroll having a fixed wrap and a discharge port; an orbiting scroll having an orbiting wrap, wherein the fixed scroll and the orbiting scroll form compression chambers having a decreased volume as they consecutively move toward a center of the scroll compressor by being engaged with each other; and a backflow preventing valve that opens and closes the discharge port of the fixed scroll, wherein a refrigerant compressed in the compression chambers is discharged out through the discharge port, wherein the discharge port is implemented to have one or more components having different inner diameters between an entrance portion and an exit portion, wherein the discharge port includes a buffer portion between the entrance portion and the exit portion, wherein one or more damping protrusions are formed between the entrance portion and the buffer portion on an inner circumferential surface of the discharge port and extend toward a central longitudinal axis of the discharge port, wherein the buffer portion is disposed closer to the exit portion than the one or more damping protrusions, wherein a diameter of the buffer portion is larger than a diameter of the entrance portion and a diameter of the exit portion, wherein the diameter of the entrance portion is larger than the diameter of the exit portion, wherein a diameter of the one or more damping protrusions is smaller than the diameter of the entrance portion and equal to or larger than the diameter of the exit portion, and wherein a length of the buffer portion is longer than a length of each of the one or more damping protrusions.
