LIQUID-COOLED ROTARY COMPRESSOR AND COOLANT SUPPLY METHOD THEREFOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18121630 titled 'LIQUID-COOLED ROTARY COMPRESSOR AND COOLANT SUPPLY METHOD THEREFOR

Simplified Explanation

- The patent application describes a liquid-cooled rotary compressor that compresses gas using a compression chamber formed by a fixed wall and a rotating wall. - The compressor includes a liquid injection path for injecting a coolant into the compression chamber to cool it. - The rotational speed of the rotating wall can be adjusted to control the discharge flow rate of the compressor. - The compressor also includes a liquid amount adjusting unit that adjusts the amount of coolant supplied to the compressor main body based on the change in rotational speed. - A compressed gas supply path is provided to supply compressed gas to the liquid injection path downstream of the liquid amount adjusting unit. - The amount of compressed gas supplied to the liquid injection path is determined by the amount of coolant supplied to the compressor main body.


Original Abstract Submitted

A liquid-cooled rotary compressor includes a compressor main body having a compression chamber formed by a fixed wall and a rotating wall and compressing gas, and a liquid injection path for injecting a coolant into the compression chamber, and adjusts a discharge flow rate by changing a rotational speed of the rotating wall. The compressor includes a liquid amount adjusting unit that adjusts an amount of the coolant supplied from the liquid injection path to the compressor main body according to a change in the rotational speed of the rotating wall, and a compressed gas supply path that supplies compressed gas to a downstream side of the liquid amount adjusting unit in the liquid injection path. The compressed gas is supplied from the compressed gas supply path to the liquid injection path according to the amount of the coolant supplied to the compressor main body.
