SCROLL COMPRESSSOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18231878 titled 'SCROLL COMPRESSSOR
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a scroll compressor with an oil supply passage independent of an intermediate pressure chamber, allowing oil from a rotational shaft to flow into the compression chamber.
- Oil supply passage provided independent of intermediate pressure chamber
- Allows oil from rotational shaft to reach compression chamber
- Inner space of casing communicates directly with compression chamber
- Oil stored in inner space can be smoothly supplied to compression chamber even at low operating pressure ratios
---
- Potential Applications

- Refrigeration units
- Heat pumps
- Problems Solved
- Efficient oil supply to compression chamber
- Smooth operation at low pressure differentials
- Benefits
- Improved compressor performance
- Reduced wear and tear on components
- Enhanced reliability and longevity of compressor
Original Abstract Submitted
A scroll compressor may include an oil supply passage provided independent of an intermediate pressure chamber to allow an oil passage of a rotational shaft to communicate with a compression chamber, such that some of the oil suctioned through the oil passage is guided to the compression chamber. As an inner space of a casing communicates directly with the compression chamber without passing through the intermediate pressure chamber, even in a state in which an operating pressure ratio is, for example, 1.3 or less, namely, even if a differential pressure between the inner space and the compression chamber is not large, oil stored in the inner space may be smoothly supplied to the compression chamber.
