The present disclosure is a national stage application of International Patent Application No. PCT/CN2019/106868, which is filed on Sep. 20, 2019 and claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201811550007.5, filed on Dec. 18, 2018 and entitled “Piston limiting structure, compressor and heat exchange apparatus”, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
The disclosure relates to the field of compressors, and in particular to a piston limiting structure, a compressor, and a heat exchange apparatus.
A rotary cylinder piston compressor is a compressor based on a crosshead shoe principle, a cylinder thereof is rotated in a cylinder sleeve, a piston is arranged transversely in a piston hole of the cylinder, and reciprocated to be slid in the piston hole, thereby a compression chamber is formed among an end face of the piston, a side wall of the piston hole and an inner wall of the cylinder sleeve.
In order to guarantee fit degree and applicability between the piston and the piston hole, from a manufacturing perspective, applying a circular piston hole and a piston with a cylindrical cross section is apparently the best, and it is the easiest to guarantee the machining accuracy. However, in this case, because the piston hole is arranged transversely in the cylindrical piston, two end edges of the piston hole are actually intersecting lines of two cylinders, a length along a circumferential direction everywhere is varied continuously. Similarly, two end edges of the piston are also intersecting lines of the two cylinders (i.e. consistent with the two end edges of the piston hole), and a length of the piston along a circumferential direction thereof everywhere is also varied continuously. In an ideal state, a bus of a piston head (namely an end face) should be parallel to a bus of an outer surface of the cylinder, so that a destination of a reciprocating motion of the piston perfectly fits the inner wall of the cylinder sleeve (namely the end face of the piston and the outer surface of the cylinder form a completed cylindrical surface) to complete the exhaust. However, in fact, while the piston with the circular cross section is applied, the piston is auto-rotated relative to the cylinder during an operation process, because the lengths of the piston and the piston hole along the circumferential direction everywhere are both varied continuously, once the relative rotation is generated between two parties, the completed cylindrical surface may not be formed by the end face of the piston and the outer surface of the cylinder, the interference between the head of the piston and the inner wall of the cylinder sleeve is caused in a compression process of the piston, so that the collision to the cylinder is generated.
In order to solve a problem that the collision to the cylinder is generated by the circular piston, the rotary cylinder piston compressor is improved by using two solutions in the art known to inventors.
I. A non-circular piston is used, and the piston hole of the cylinder also needs to be correspondingly set as a non-circular shape, a non-circular structure is poor in machining manufacturability, harmful to large-scale production, and difficult to machine and guarantee the accuracy. In addition, there are multiple matching sizes for a matching surface of the piston and the cylinder, for example, outer diameters of two non-circular sections, a center distance of a semi-circular arc surface, a length of a parallel segment, and a width of the piston, it is difficult to simultaneously guarantee a matching clearance between the piston and the cylinder in an assembly process, the assembly and performance of the compressor are affected. In addition, the parallel segment of the non-circular piston has a larger deformation during actual operation, a reliability of the compressor is affected.
II. A limiting structure is additionally axially arranged on the circular piston, and thereby the auto-rotation of the piston is limited. Specifically, an axial surface of the circular piston is provided with a pin, and a corresponding position of the piston hole of the cylinder is provided with a through pin avoidance groove, the piston is limited by the pin and the avoidance groove, so that the piston is prevented from being rotated. However, in such a solution, although the piston is the circular piston, the corresponding piston hole is actually non-circular due to the arrangement of the through avoidance groove, and the avoidance groove is cooperated with the pin, so that an end portion of the avoidance groove is located at an air suction-exhaust chamber, an air suction-exhaust process of a pump body is affected, and a natural clearance volume is introduced at a terminal end of compression. In addition, the cooperation of the pin and the avoidance groove is located between two compression chambers, and it needs to be guaranteed that two chamber bodies are sealed, thereby it belongs to a finish machining position, a machining process, such as linear cutting, specially harmful to the large-scale production is still necessary to be used for the cylinder. Therefore, how to solve the cylinder collision problem of the circular piston becomes a research direction for improving the rotary cylinder piston compressor.
In order to solve technical problems in an art known to inventors that a circular piston is auto-rotated to cause interference between a piston head and an inner wall of a cylinder sleeve or even collision to a cylinder, and a limiting structure between the circular piston and the cylinder introduces a natural clearance volume, some embodiments of the disclosure provide a piston limiting structure with high cooperation accuracy capable of preventing piston auto-rotation without introducing a clearance volume.

Based on the embodiments in the disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work shall fall within a scope of protection of the disclosure. In addition, technical features involved in the different embodiments of the disclosure described below may be combined with each other as long as there is no conflict between them.
A rotary cylinder piston compressor in an art known to inventors includes a flange, a cylinder sleeve, a cylinder, a piston and a rotation shaft, based on a crosshead shoe principle, the piston is reciprocated to be slid relative to the cylinder during a rotation process, thereby two ends of the piston form a compression chamber and an exhaust chamber with the cylinder and the cylinder sleeve. For the piston of the rotary cylinder piston compressor, a degree of freedom of auto-rotation of the piston around an axis of the piston itself needs to be limited. The piston limiting structure provided by some embodiment of the disclosure may be used for the rotary cylinder piston compressor in an art known to inventors, thereby it is achieved that the piston is limited.
It is to be noted that a limiting relation between the flange and the cylinder may include an inner circle support and an outer circle support. The inner circle support means that an end face of the cylinder is provided with a circular assembly through hole, the flange is provided with a lug boss corresponding to it, the lug boss is insertion-connected in the assembly through hole, and a side wall of the lug boss abuts against an inner wall of the assembly through hole, because of form-fit of two parties, the cylinder is radially limited while the cylinder is rotated around the lug boss. The outer circle support means that the end face of the cylinder is provided with a circular protruded short shaft, the flange is provided with a corresponding sink groove, the short shaft is insertion-connected in the sink groove, and an outer wall of the short shaft abuts against a side wall of the sink groove, and because of form-fit of two parties, the cylinder is radially limited while the short shaft of the cylinder is rotated in the sink groove.
As shown in
As shown in
The lower flange 5 is provided with a limiting piece 52, an end face of the limiting piece 52 abuts against the thrust surface 221 to limit the piston 2 to be rotated around the axis of the piston itself. In some embodiments, a cylindrical lug boss 51 is formed in the middle of an upper end face of the lower flange 5, the limiting piece 52 is integrally formed on the lug boss 51, a cross section of the limiting piece 52 is circular, a middle portion of the lower flange 5 is provided with an eccentric shaft hole, and the shaft hole successively penetrates through the limiting piece 52, the lug boss 51 and the lower flange 5.
As shown in
In some embodiments, the piston 2 is rotated to be reciprocated relative to the limiting piece 52 in a working state, thereby it is guaranteed that the piston 2 does not collide with the limiting piece 52 in a process of a rotation reciprocating motion, while the piston 2 is reciprocated to be slid in the piston hole 11, it is satisfied:
L1−L2≥S
Herein, as shown in
While L1−L2=S, and the piston 2 is slid to a destination position of the stroke in the piston hole 11, a side wall of the thrust groove 22 and an outer side wall of the limiting piece are just located in a limit position of non-contact, at this moment, the piston 2 does not collide with the limiting piece 52. While L1−L2>S, and the piston 2 is reciprocated to be slid in the piston hole 11, the side wall of the thrust groove 22 does not contact with the outer side wall of the limiting piece 52 always, therefore the piston 2 does not collide with the limiting piece 52, and the compressor is worked more stably and reliably.
On this basis, a diameter of the limiting piece 52 is set to be less than a diameter of the lug boss 51, thus an avoidance space 53 is formed on the lug boss 51. As shown in

It is to be noted that, in this case, a certain minute clearance A exists between the piston 2 and the limiting piece 52, Δ≤0.05 mm, therefore the auto-rotation tendency of the piston 2 is very small, it is not enough to collide a cylinder wall at a compression end portion. However, for assembly, because there may be an assembly clearance between the piston 2 and the limiting piece 52, machining and assembling accuracy requirements to the thrust surface 221 of the piston 2 and the limiting piece 52 are lower, a machining cost is correspondingly reduced, and large-scale machining and production are easy.

At the same time, clearances between the upper and lower side walls of the piston 2 and the cylinder 1 are adjusted by adjusting a numerical range of the η, η≤0.05 mm, a numerical value of the η is adjusted by finish machining, so that the assembly accuracy of the piston 2 and the cylinder 1 is higher, thereby the fit clearances between the upper and lower side walls of the piston 2 and the inner wall of the cylinder 1 are the same, the work of the piston 2 is more stable and reliable, and it is beneficial to lubrication of an oil path, so the friction power consumption is reduced.

It is to be noted that, in this case, a certain minute clearance A exists between the piston 2 and the limiting piece 52, Δ≤0.05 mm, therefore the auto-rotation tendency of the piston 2 is very small, it is not enough to collide a cylinder wall at a compression end portion. However, for assembly, because there may be an assembly clearance between the piston 2 and the limiting piece 52, machining and assembling accuracy requirements to the thrust surface 221 of the piston 2 and the limiting piece 52 are lower, a machining cost is correspondingly reduced, and large-scale machining and production are easy.
While the upper end face of the limiting piece 52 abuts against the thrust surface 221, it is satisfied:
