CONNECTION PIECE CONNECTING THE HOUSING OF A DRIVE UNIT TO THE HOUSING OF A COMPRESSOR ELEMENT

摘要

Connection piece connecting the housing (4) of a drive unit (2) with the housing (5) of a compressor element (1), characterized in that it is provided with ribs (12) over at least a part of its wall, the height of which ribs is at least equal to one and a half time the thickness of the wall part upon which this rib is standing and the thickness of which, half the way up its height, is equal to at least half of the aforementioned thickness, whereby the ribs (12) form a pattern which divides the wall into adjacent wall segments (13), the first characteristic mode for bending of which has a resonant frequency which excludes excitation by all important excitation frequencies up to and including the highest of the compressor element (1).
