According to structure features of a rotary slide-vane-type compressor, the working process is divided into three phases of an air suction section, a compressing section and an air exhaust section. In the air suction section, the head of the slide vane is an air suction pressure, and the tail is a back pressure, at this moment, the head of the slide vane has the maximum acting force on the inner wall of the cylinder, and the air suction section slide vane is stretched to be moved along with the slide vane groove, a rotation radius of the head of the slide vane is an increased process, namely a linear velocity of the head of the slide vane is greater and greater, according to W=FV, the power consumption of the head of the slide vane is not only large in the air suction section, but also an increased process, therefore the power consumption of the head of the slide vane occupies a larger proportion in a whole operation period. A spring-ball limiting structure is configured through the end face at the tail of the slide vane, the spring-ball limiting structure cooperates with the avoidance concave portion 21 of the upper and lower flanges, it is guaranteed that the head of the air suction section slide vane does not contact with the inner wall of the cylinder in a large gap mode, and it has a significant effect of reducing the power consumption there.
In addition, two sides of the air suction section slide vane are the air suction pressures, the limiting structure ensures that the slide vane is communicated with the inner wall of the cylinder in the large gap mode, namely the gap between the head of the head of the air suction section slide vane and the inner wall of the cylinder does not need to be strictly controlled, the frictional power consumption is reduced, at the same time a problem of an insufficient air suction amount in an air suction cavity is solved, and it is beneficial to improve a cooling capacity of the compressor.
