SCROLL COMPRESSOR AND HOME APPLIANCE INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17985372 titled 'SCROLL COMPRESSOR AND HOME APPLIANCE INCLUDING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a scroll compressor design that includes a fixed scroll, an orbiting scroll, a frame, a guide member, and multiple bearing members.

  • The scroll compressor has a housing, with a fixed scroll and an orbiting scroll inside.
  • The fixed scroll has a fixed wrap, while the orbiting scroll has an orbiting wrap that forms a compression chamber with the fixed wrap.
  • The orbiting scroll has a receiving groove on its second surface, and the frame has a receiving groove on its surface facing the second surface of the orbiting scroll.
  • A guide member is placed between the orbiting scroll and the frame to prevent rotation of the orbiting scroll.
  • Multiple bearing members are used, with some placed in the receiving groove of the orbiting scroll and others in the receiving groove of the frame.
  • Each bearing member includes an inner ring that is fixed to the guide member.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Scroll compressors are commonly used in air conditioning systems, refrigeration systems, and heat pumps.
  • This design could be applied in various industries where scroll compressors are used, such as automotive, aerospace, and industrial applications.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • The guide member and bearing members prevent the orbiting scroll from rotating, ensuring smooth and efficient operation of the compressor.
  • The design helps to reduce friction and wear between the moving parts, leading to improved durability and reliability.

Benefits of this technology:

  • The scroll compressor design provides efficient compression of gases or fluids, resulting in improved energy efficiency.
  • The use of guide members and bearing members helps to reduce noise and vibration during operation, enhancing user comfort.
  • The simplified design and construction of the compressor may lead to cost savings in manufacturing and maintenance.


Original Abstract Submitted

A scroll compressor including a housing, a fixed scroll fixed to an inside of the housing and including a fixed wrap, an orbiting scroll including an orbiting wrap disposed on a first surface of the orbiting scroll facing the fixed scroll to form a compression chamber together with the fixed wrap, and a first receiving groove formed on a second surface, opposite to the first surface, of the orbiting scroll, a frame fixed to the inside of the housing and including a second receiving groove formed on a surface of the frame member facing the second surface of the orbiting scroll, a guide member between the orbiting scroll and the frame to prevent the orbiting scroll from rotating, and a plurality of bearing members some of which are disposed in the first receiving groove and others of which are disposed in the second receiving groove, and each bearing member of the plurality of bearing members includes an inner ring fixed to the guide member.
