The present invention relates to a variable displacement swash plate type compressor.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 8-105384 discloses a conventional variable displacement swash plate type compressor (hereinafter, described as a compressor). In the compressor, a housing is formed by a front housing, a cylinder block and a rear housing. In the front housing and the rear housing, suction chambers and discharge chambers are respectively formed. Further, in the rear housing, a control pressure chamber is formed.
In the cylinder block, a swash plate chamber, a plurality of cylinder bores and a center bore are formed. The center bore is formed at a rear side of the cylinder block.
A drive shaft is inserted through the housing, and is rotatably supported in the housing. In the swash plate chamber, a swash plate that is rotatable by rotation of the drive shaft is provided. Between the drive shaft and the swash plate, a link mechanism that allows change of an inclination angle of the swash plate is provided. Here, the inclination angle refers to an angle which the swash plate forms with respect to a direction orthogonal to a rotational axis of the drive shaft.
Further, in the respective cylinder bores, pistons are respectively accommodated to be able to reciprocate, and compression chambers are respectively formed in the respective cylinder bores. A conversion mechanism causes the respective pistons to reciprocate in the cylinder bores at a stroke corresponding to the inclination angle, by rotation of the swash plate. Further, an actuator can change the inclination angle, and a control mechanism controls the actuator.
The actuator has a first movable body, a second movable body, a thrust bearing and the above described control pressure chamber. The first movable body is disposed in the center bore, and is movable in a rotational axis direction in the center bore. In the first movable body, a shaft hole through which a rear end portion of the drive shaft is inserted is formed. Thereby, the rear end portion of the drive shaft is rotatable in the shaft hole of the first movable body. The second movable body has the drive shaft inserted therethough. The second movable body is disposed forward of the first movable body, and is movable in the rotational axis direction. The thrust bearing is provided between the first movable body and the second movable body.
The control mechanism regulates the pressure of a refrigerant in the control pressure chamber by performing communication control of the control pressure chamber and the discharge chamber, besides performing communication control of the control pressure chamber and the suction chamber. Further, the control mechanism has an O-ring and a pair of searing rings. The O-ring and the respective sealing rings are located between an outer circumferential surface of the first movable body and an inner circumferential surface of the center bore. The respective sealing rings are disposed at a front end side and a rear end side of the first movable body with the O-ring therebetween. By the O-ring and the respective sealing rings, a space between the control pressure chamber and the swash plate chamber is sealed.
In this compressor, the control mechanism regulates the pressure of the refrigerant in the control pressure chamber, whereby the first and the second movable bodies and the thrust bearing can be moved in the rotational axis direction. Thereby, in this compressor, the link mechanism allows change of the inclination angle of the swash plate, and a discharge capacity per one rotation of the drive shaft is changeable.
In the above described conventional compressor, at a time of changing the discharge capacity, the control mechanism regulates the pressure of the refrigerant in the control pressure chamber by each communication control of the suction chamber and the discharge chamber, and the control pressure chamber while sealing the space between the control pressure chamber and the swash plate chamber. Therefore, in this compressor, work and means for preventing leakage of the refrigerant from the control pressure chamber are needed, and manufacture cost increases.

Further, in the valve plate 40 and the suction valve plate 41, discharge ports 40b the number of which is the same as the number of the cylinder bores 21a are formed. The respective cylinder bores 21a communicate with the suction chamber 33 through the respective suction ports 40a, and communicate with the discharge chamber 35 through the respective discharge ports 40b. Further, in the valve plate 40, the suction valve plate 41, the discharge valve plate 43 and the retainer plate 45, a first communication hole 40c and a second communication hole 40d are formed. By the first communication hole 40c, the suction chamber 33 and the suction passage 39 communicate with each other. Thereby, the swash plate chamber 25 and the suction chamber 33 communicate with each other.
The suction valve plate 41 is provided on a front surface of the valve plate 40.

The respective lug arms 53 extend rearward from the lug plate 51. Further, on the lug plate 51, a sliding surface 51b is formed at a position between the respective lug arms 53.
The swash plate 5 forms an annular flat plate shape, and has a front surface 5a and a rear surface 5b. On the front surface 5a, a weight portion 5c that protrudes forward of the swash plate 5 is formed. The weight portion 5c abuts on the lug plate 51 when the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 becomes maximum. Further, in a center of the swash plate 5, an insertion hole 5d is formed. The drive shaft 3 is inserted through the insertion hole 5d.
The respective swash plate arms 5e are formed on the front surface 5a. The respective swash plate arms 5e extend forward from the front surface 5a. Further, in the swash plate 5, a substantially semispherical convex portion 5g is protrudingly provided on the front surface 5a, and is integrated with the front surface 5a. The convex portion 5g is located between the respective swash plate arms 5e.
In the compressor, the respective swash plate arms 5e are inserted between the respective lug arms 53, whereby the lug plate 51 and the swash plate 5 are connected. Thereby, the swash plate 5 is rotatable with the lug plate 51 in the swash plate chamber 25. Like this, the lug plate 51 and the swash plate 5 are connected, whereby in the respective swash plate arms 5e, respective tip end sides abut on the sliding surface 51b. Subsequently, the respective swash plate arms 5e slide on the sliding surface 51b, whereby the swash plate 5 can change an inclination angle of its own to a direction orthogonal to the rotational axis O from the maximum inclination angle shown in
The actuator 13 consists of the lug plate 51, a movable body 13a and a control pressure chamber 13b. In the compressor, the lug plate 51 configures the link mechanism 7 as described above, and also functions as a stationary body in the present invention.
As shown in
Further, an acting portion 134 is formed integrally with a rear end of the first cylinder portion 131. The acting portion 134 vertically extends toward a top dead center position T side of the swash plate 5 from the rotational axis O side, and is in point contact with the convex portion 5g. Thereby, the movable body 13a is rotatable integrally with the lug plate 51 and the swash plate 5.
Further, the cylinder chamber 51a can accommodate the second cylinder portion 132 and the connection portion 133 by causing the second cylinder portion 132 and the connection portion 133 to advance to an inside (see
The control pressure chamber 13b is formed in a space among the second cylinder portion 132, the connection portion 133, the cylinder chamber 51a and the drive shaft 3. Further, a ring groove 131a is concavely provided on an inner circumferential surface of the first cylinder portion 131. In the ring groove 131a, a rubber O-ring 49c is provided. Thereby, the O-ring 49c is located between the first cylinder portion 131 and the drive shaft 3. The O-ring 49c also corresponds to the sealing member in the present invention.
Further, a ring groove 132a is also concavely provided on an outer circumferential surface of the second cylinder portion 132. Here, the second cylinder portion 132 advances into the cylinder chamber 51a as described above, and therefore, the ring groove 132a is located between the outer circumferential surface of the second cylinder portion 132 and the inner circumferential surface of the cylinder chamber 51a, and by extension, between the movable body 13 and the lug plate 51. The ring groove 132a corresponds to a concave stripe portion in the present invention. By the ring groove 132a, the swash plate chamber 25 and the control pressure chamber 13b communicate with each other. Further, in the ring groove 132a, an annular member 61 is provided.
The annular member 61 is made of PTFE. As shown in
Here, as shown in
As shown in
The drive shaft 3 is connected to a pulley or an electromagnetic clutch not illustrated, by a screw portion 3e that is formed at a tip end.
The respective pistons 9 are respectively accommodated in the respective cylinder bores 21a, and are capable of reciprocating in the respective cylinder bores 21a. By the respective pistons 9 and the valve formation plate 23, compression chambers 57 are defined in the respective cylinder bores 21a.
Further, in the respective pistons 9, engaging portions 9a are concavely provided respectively. In the engaging portion 9a, the semispherical shoes 11a and 11b are respectively provided. The respective shoes 11a and 11b convert rotation of the swash plate 5 into reciprocal movement of the respective pistons 9. The respective shoes 11a and 11b correspond to a conversion mechanism in the present invention. In this manner, the respective pistons 9 can reciprocate in the cylinder bores 21a respectively at a stroke corresponding to the inclination angle of the swash plate 5.
As shown in
The low-pressure passage 15a is connected to the pressure regulation chamber 31 and the suction chamber 33. By the low-pressure passage 15a, the axial path 3a and the radial path 3b, the control pressure chamber 13b, the pressure regulation chamber 31 and the suction chamber 33 communicate with one another. The high-pressure passage 15b is connected to the pressure regulation chamber 31 and the discharge chamber 35. By the high-pressure passage 15b, the axial path 3a and the radial path 3b, the control pressure chamber 13b, the pressure regulation chamber 31 and the discharge chamber 35 communicate with one another. Like this, the high-pressure passage 15, the axial path 3a and the radial path 3b configure a supply passage in the present invention.
The low-pressure control valve 15c is provided in the low-pressure passage 15a. The low-pressure control valve 15c can regulate an opening degree of the low-pressure passage 15a based on a pressure in the suction chamber 33. Further, the high-pressure control valve 15d is provided in the high-pressure passage 15b. The high-pressure control valve 15d can regulate an opening degree of the high-pressure passage 15b based on the pressure in the suction chamber 33.
In the compressor, piping connecting to the evaporator is connected to the inlet port 250 shown in
In the compressor which is configured as above, the drive shaft 3 rotates, whereby the swash plate 5 rotates, and the respective pistons 9 reciprocate in the respective cylinder bores 21a. Therefore, the compression chamber 57 changes a capacity in response to a piston stroke. Therefore, the refrigerant which is taken into the swash plate chamber 25 by the inlet port 250 from the evaporator passes through the suction chamber 33 from the suction passage 39 and is compressed in the compression chamber 57. Subsequently, the refrigerant which is compressed in the compression chamber 57 is discharged into the discharge chamber 35 and is discharged into the condenser from the outlet port.
In the compressor, the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 is changed by the actuator 13, and the stroke of the piston 9 is increased or decreased, whereby change in the discharge capacity can be performed.
More specifically, in the compressor, in the control mechanism 15, the high-pressure control valve 15d shown in
Here, if the high-pressure control valve 15d decreases the opening degree of the high-pressure passage 15b, and the low-pressure control valve 15c increases the opening degree of the low-pressure passage 15a, the pressure in the control pressure chamber 13b reduces. Therefore, a pressure difference between the control pressure chamber 13b and the swash plate chamber 25 becomes small. In a state in which the pressure difference between the control pressure chamber 13b and the swash plate chamber 25 is small like this, the refrigerant in the control pressure chamber 13 flows through both a gap between the ring groove 132a and the annular member 61, and the third cutout 630c, and flows to the swash plate chamber 25, as shown by the solid arrows in
Thereby, in the compressor, the pressure in the control pressure chamber 13b is quickly reduced. Therefore, by a piston compression force that acts on the swash plate 5, in the actuator 13, the movable body 13a slides in the cylinder chamber 51a toward the lug plate 51 side from the swash plate 5 side in the rotational axis O direction, and the capacity of the control pressure chamber 13b decreases, as shown in
Further, at the same time, in the compressor, the respective swash plate arms 5e slide on the sliding surface 51b so as to be away from the rotational axis O. Therefore, in the swash plate 5, a bottom dead center side pivots in a clockwise direction while substantially keeping the top dead center position T. In this manner, in the compressor, the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 to the rotational axis O of the drive shaft 3 increases. Thereby, in the compressor, the stroke of the piston 9 increases, and the discharge capacity per one rotation of the drive shaft 3 becomes large. Note that the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 shown in
Meanwhile, if the high-pressure control valve 15d shown in
Thereby, in the compressor, the acting portion 134 presses the convex portion 5g toward the rear part of the swash plate chamber 25. Therefore, the respective swash plate arms 5e slide on the sliding surface 51b to be close to the rotational axis O. Thereby, in the swash plate 5, the bottom dead center side pivots in a counterclockwise direction while the top dead center position T is substantially kept. In this manner, in the compressor, the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 with respect to the rotational axis O of the drive shaft 3 is decreased. Thereby, in the compressor, the stroke of the piston 9 decreases, and the discharge capacity per one rotation of the drive shaft 3 becomes small. Note that the inclination angle of the swash plate 5 shown in
As above, in the compressor, based on the pressure difference between the control pressure chamber 13b and the swash plate chamber 25, the annular member 61 regulates the flow of the refrigerant which flows through the ring groove 132a and regulates the pressure in the control pressure chamber 13b. In this manner, in the compressor, the discharge capacity per one rotation of the drive shaft 3 can be changed. In this manner, in the compressor, the annular member 61 functions as a pressure regulation valve that regulates the pressure in the control pressure chamber 13b. Here, the annular member 61 has a simple configuration having the joint gap 63 including the third cutout 630c to be the aperture, and therefore, in the compressor, the annular member 61 can be caused to function as the pressure regulation valve while the annular member 61 is disposed around the movable body 13a which configures a rotary body with the drive shaft 3 and the like.
In this manner, in the compressor, the pressure of the control pressure chamber 13b is regulated while the refrigerant is discharged to the swash plate chamber 25 from the control pressure chamber 13b through the ring groove 132a, and therefore, the control pressure chamber 13b does not have to be completely sealed from the swash plate chamber 25. More specifically, in the compressor, it is sufficient if the space between the pressure regulation chamber 31 and the swash plate chamber 25 is sealed by the O-rings 49a and 49b, and the space between the first cylinder portion 131 and the drive shaft 3 is sealed by the O-ring 49c. In this manner, in the compressor, work and means for sealing the control pressure chamber 13b are simplified.
Consequently, according to the compressor of Embodiment 1, in the compressor that changes the discharge capacity by using the actuator 13, reduction in manufacture cost can be realized.
In particular, the joint gap 63 of the annular member 61 is configured by the first to the third cutouts 630a to 630c, and the third cutout 630c is made the aperture. Here, when the annular member 61 is assembled to the second cylinder portion 132 of the movable body 13a, in the first and the second cutouts 630a and 630b which extend in the axial direction, widths, that is, the channel areas at the time of the refrigerant flowing easily change due to a tolerance of the diameter of the second cylinder portion 132, and a tolerance at the time of assembly and the like. In contrast with this, in the third cutout 630c which extends in the circumferential direction, the channel area is difficult to change even when the annular member 61 is assembled to the second cylinder portion 132. Therefore, by making the third cutout 630c the aperture, the flow of the refrigerant which flows to the swash plate chamber 25 from the control pressure chamber 13b through the ring groove 132a can be favorably regulated in the compressor.
Further, the annular member 61 is provided in only the ring groove 132a of the second cylinder portion 132, and the O-rings 49a to 49c are respectively provided between the drive shaft 3 and the second shaft hole 21c, and between the first cylinder portion 131 and the drive shaft 3. Therefore, in the compressor, in a position close to the control pressure chamber 13b, the flow of the refrigerant which is discharged from the inside of the control pressure chamber 13b can be regulated by the single annular member 61, and therefore regulation of the pressure in the control pressure chamber 13b is facilitated. Further, since the annular member 61 is made of PTFE, slidability of the movable body 13a is ensured.
Furthermore, in the compressor, the control mechanism. 15 has the low-pressure passage 15a and the low-pressure control valve 15c, and therefore, the pressure in the control pressure chamber 13b can be reduced by not only regulation of the flow of the refrigerant by the annular member 61, but also regulation of the opening degree of the low-pressure passage 15a. Therefore, in the compressor, a reduction speed of the pressure in the control pressure chamber 13b can be regulated, and change of the discharge capacity can be quickly performed.
A compressor in Embodiment 2 adopts an annular member 65 shown in
The annular member 65 has a joint gap 67 forming a crank shape. As shown in
The annular member 65 is also provided in the ring groove 132a, whereby the third cutout 670c always allows the control pressure chamber 13b and the swash plate chamber 25 to communicate with each other. Here, in the joint gap 67, the third cutout 670c is also formed so that a channel area for a refrigerant becomes smaller as compared with the first and the second cutouts 670a and 670b. Thereby, the third cutout 670c becomes an aperture in the annular member 65. A space between the outer circumferential surface of the second cylinder portion 132 and the inner circumferential surface of the cylinder chamber 51a, the ring groove 132a and the third cutout 670c function as the bleed passage in the present invention. Here, in the annular member 65, the channel area of the third cutout 670c is regulated by the communication grooves 670d and 670e. Note that shapes and numbers of the communication grooves 670d and 670e can be properly designed. Note that the annular member 65 may be formed of a metal or the like. The other components in the compressor are similar to those in the compressor of Embodiment 1, and detailed explanation concerning the same components will be omitted by assigning the same reference sings to the same components.
Similarly to the compressor in Embodiment 1, in this compressor, the annular member 65 moves in the ring groove 132a based on the pressure difference between the control pressure chamber 13b and the swash plate chamber 25. Thereby, in this compressor, the annular member 65 regulates a flow of the refrigerant that flows through the ring groove 132a, and can regulate the pressure in the control pressure chamber 13b. On this occasion, in the annular member 65, the flow of the refrigerant which flows to the swash plate chamber 25 from the control pressure chamber 13b can also be regulated by the communication grooves 670d and 670e. The other operation in this compressor is similar to that of the compressor of Embodiment 1.
In the above, the present invention is described based on Embodiments 1 and 2, but the present invention is not limited to the above described Embodiments 1 and 2, and it goes without saying that the present invention can be properly changed within the range without departing from the gist of the present invention.
For example, the compressor may be configured by providing the annular member 61 or 65 for the ring groove 131a, instead of the ring groove 132a. In this case, the ring groove 131a corresponds to the concave stripe portion in the present invention.
Further, the compressor may be configured by further providing the annular members 61 and 65 in the ring groove 131a while providing the annular members 61 and 65 in the ring groove 132a. In this case, a leakage amount of the refrigerant is regulated by the plurality of annular members 61 and 65, whereby, the pressure in the control pressure chamber 13b can be regulated.
Furthermore, by also providing a cylinder bore, a compression chamber, a suction chamber, a discharge chamber and the like at the front housing 17 side, the compressor may be configured as a variable displacement double head swash plate type compressor.
The annular member is preferably made of a resin such as PEEK (polyether ether ketone), PPS (polyphenylene sulfide), and PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene).
Further, one annular member or a plurality of annular members may be provided in the bleed passage.
