SCROLL COMPRESSOR WITH CIRCULAR SURFACE TERMINATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240044334 titled 'SCROLL COMPRESSOR WITH CIRCULAR SURFACE TERMINATIONS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a scroll type positive displacement assembly that consists of two scrolls, where the second scroll orbits around the first scroll without rotating. The first and second scrolls create a compression chamber between two seal points, where they come into contact during the compression cycle. The seal points align with a discharge port, eliminating dead space at the end of the compression cycle.

  • The patent describes a scroll type positive displacement assembly.
  • The assembly includes a first scroll and a second scroll.
  • The second scroll orbits around the first scroll without rotating.
  • The first and second scrolls define a compression chamber between two seal points.
  • The seal points come together near a discharge port, eliminating dead space.
  • The seal points remain in contact for at least 180 degrees of the compression cycle.

Potential Applications:

  • Air compressors
  • Refrigeration systems
  • Heat pumps
  • Vacuum pumps
  • Gasoline engines

Problems Solved:

  • Dead space in compression chambers
  • Inefficient compression cycles
  • Leakage between scrolls

Benefits:

  • Improved efficiency in compression cycles
  • Reduced dead space and leakage
  • Enhanced performance and reliability
  • Compact design
  • Versatile application in various industries


Original Abstract Submitted

a scroll type positive displacement assembly includes a first scroll and a second scroll, where the second scroll is configured to orbit with respect to a center of the first scroll without rotating with respect to the first scroll. together, the first scroll and the second scroll define a compression chamber between two seal points where the first scroll and the second scroll contact one another as the second scroll orbits with respect to the first scroll during a compression cycle, and the two seal points come together proximate to a discharge port between the first scroll and the second scroll such that there is at least substantially no dead space between the first scroll and the second scroll at an end of the compression cycle. for example, the two seal points remain in sealing contact during at least one hundred and eighty (180) degrees of the compression cycle.
