Scroll Compressor With Bifurcated Flow Pattern

View page
US Patent:
7311501, Dec 25, 2007
Filed:
Feb 27, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/376568
Inventors:
Chris A. Wehrenberg - La Crosse WI, US
Brian T. Sullivan - La Crosse WI, US
Scott J. Smerud - La Crosse WI, US
Assignee:
American Standard International Inc. - New York NY
International Classification:
F04B 39/06
F04B 35/04
F01C 1/063
US Classification:
417371, 4174105, 418 551, 418 556
Abstract:
A scroll compressor includes various features that promote a bifurcated flow pattern of gas through a compressor shell to reduce oil entrainment. After entering the shell, some gas travels upward, which reduces the volume of gas traveling downward toward an oil sump. To accomplish this, the compressor's motor can be surrounded by a sleeve having upper and lower apertures for directing the flow to the motor's upper and lower stator end turns. In some embodiments, a suction inlet is strategically positioned relative to two gas passageways that are between the stator and the compressor shell. The inlet's position is such that one passageway receives incoming gas and divides the flow in opposite directions: upward and downward. The other passageway only conveys the gas upward. In addition, a suction baffle, a diffuser, a streamlined counterweight and/or a suction line oil trap can also help promote gas/oil separation or minimize oil entrainment.

Control Of Suction Gas And Lubricant Flow In A Scroll Compressor

View page
US Patent:
60009179, Dec 14, 1999
Filed:
Nov 6, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/965590
Inventors:
Scott J. Smerud - La Crosse WI
Daniel R. Crum - La Crosse WI
Bill P. Simmons - La Crosse WI
Assignee:
American Standard Inc. - Piscataway NJ
International Classification:
F04B 1700
US Classification:
417368
Abstract:
The flow, use, interaction and separation of lubricant and gas flowing through the suction pressure portion of a low-side refrigeration scroll compressor is managed by the use of a multi-ported frame in conjunction with separate suction gas supply and lubricant return passages cooperatively defined by the compressor shell and the stator of the motor which drives the compressor.

Aerostatic Thrust Bearing And Method Of Aerostatically Supporting A Thrust Load In A Scroll Compressor

View page
US Patent:
20230037942, Feb 9, 2023
Filed:
Aug 15, 2022
Appl. No.:
17/819688
Inventors:
- Davidson NC, US
Michael G. BENCO - Onalaska WI, US
Sung Hwa JEUNG - Chatsworth CA, US
Scott J. SMERUD - La Crosse WI, US
James Joseph WILTZIUS - Forest Lake MN, US
International Classification:
F04C 29/02
F16N 15/00
F04C 18/02
F04C 23/00
F01C 21/02
Abstract:
A scroll compressor includes a first scroll member, a second scroll member, and an aerostatic thrust bearing. The aerostatic thrust bearing forms a layer of gas between the second scroll member and a fixed supporting member to support the second scroll member as the second scroll member rotates and/or orbits. Also disclosed is a method of supporting a rotating/orbiting scroll member in a scroll compressor. The method including supplying pressurized gas to an aerostatic thrust bearing such that a layer of gas is formed between the rotating/orbiting scroll member and a fixed supporting member.

Scroll Compressor With Second Intermediate Cap To Facilitate Refrigerant Injection

View page
US Patent:
20230003218, Jan 5, 2023
Filed:
Jun 30, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/364332
Inventors:
- Davidson NC, US
Scott J. Smerud - La Crosse WI, US
International Classification:
F04C 2/02
F04C 15/00
Abstract:
A scroll compressor includes a compressor housing, an orbiting scroll member and non-orbiting scroll member intermeshed to form a compression chamber, a discharge pressure chamber, an intermediate pressure chamber. The housing includes a lower portion, a first intermediate cap, a second intermediate cap, and an upper portion. The discharge pressure chamber configured to receiving a discharge pressure fluid from the compression chamber. The intermediate pressure chamber fluidly connecting an intermediate pressure fluid inlet port and an intermediate pressure fluid injection port of the non-orbiting scroll member. A method injecting an intermediate pressure fluid into a compression chamber of a scroll compressor includes disposing the intermediate pressure fluid in an intermediate pressure chamber. The method also includes injecting the intermediate pressure fluid in the intermediate pressure chamber through the intermediate pressure fluid injection port into the compression chamber.
