Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a two-stage rotary compressor for refrigerating plants, of the type comprising a vane rotor, by means of which it is possible to obtain high volumetric efficiency and substantial savings in energy while still producing the same number of frigories.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a two-stage compressor in the form of a single rotary machine, comprising two functionally and structurally integrated compression units which use a single control motor and a single pumping means for circulating the lubricating oil and whose compression ratios are notably reduced according to the geometric mean between the minimum pressure and maximum pressure of the refrigeration cycle.
  • a two-stage rotary compressor for refrigerating plants comprising a first low-pressure vane compression unit and a second high-pressure vane compression unit, in which the rotors are connected to a single control motor and in which the lubricating oil circuit comprises an oil collection chamber positioned between the two compression units, said oil chamber being maintained at an intermediate pressure and being connected respectively to the delivery side of the low-pressure compression unit via a first oil separator and to a feeding pumping means which supplies the lubricating oil to the high-pressure compression unit, there being provided moreover a connection for supplying the lubricating oil from the delivery side of the high-pressure compression unit to the low-pressure unit, comprising an oil separator.
  • a two-stage rotary compressor of the radial vane type comprising a first compression unit 11, hereinbelow also called low-pressure compression unit BP, and a second compression unit 12, hereinbelow also called high-pressure compression unit AP, the rotors 13 and 14 of which are mechanically connected together by means of an intermediate coupling 15 so as to be rotated by a single electric motor 16.
  • the intermediate pressure of the two-stage cycle corresponding to the delivery pressure of the low-pressure compression unit, is designed so as to be equivalent to the geometric mean between the minimum pressure of the cycle at the intake side of the low-pressure unit, and the maximum pressure of the cycle at the delivery side of the high-pressure compressor.
  • the two compression units 11 and 12 in a similar manner to conventional vane compressors, thus comprise a chamber inside which a vane rotor 13, 14 rotates eccentrically, a refrigerant such as freon or the like being continuously sucked in and compressed by the two compression units 11, 12, along with the lubricating oil, then separated and made to circulate inside a refrigerating plant as shown.
  • This plant substantially comprises a condenser 18 connected to the delivery side of the high-pressure compression unit 12 via a high-pressure separator 19.
  • the refrigerant before being supplied to the low-pressure evaporator 20 is subcooled in a heat exchanger 21 operating at an intermediate pressure between the minimum pressure of the cycle, corresponding to the intake pressure of the low-pressure unit 13, and the maximum pressure, corresponding to the delivery pressure of the high-pressure unit 14. Therefore the refrigerant leaving the evaporator 20 is returned to the intake side of the low-pressure compression unit 11, and from here to the intake side of the high-pressure compression unit 12, via an oil separator 22, having an intermediate pressure, and a mixer 23 forming part of a circuit for subcooling the refrigerant.
  • This circuit comprises a heat exchanger 21 whose secondary circuit is supplied with the same refrigerant branched from the line 24, so as to be supplied to the exchanger 21 via a lamination valve 25; 26 denotes a second branched lamination valve for humidification of the mixer 23.
  • lubrication of the two compression units 11 and 12 of the two-stage compressor 10 is obtained by means of an integrated circuit which makes use of the intermediate pressure of the cycle at the delivery side of the low-pressure compression unit.
  • a chamber 27 for collecting the lubricating oil 28 inside which the intermediate pressure of the cycle is maintained is provided between the low-pressure compression unit 11 and the high-pressure compression unit 12.
  • This chamber 27 for the lubricating oil forms a functionally and structurally integral part of the two-stage compressor according to the invention.
  • the chamber 27 is therefore connected to the delivery side of the low-pressure unit 11 via the conduit 22', the oil separator 22 and conduit 22''; at the same time, the bottom of the chamber 27 is connected to the oil circulating pump 17 which supplies the oil to the delivery side of the high-pressure compression unit 12.
  • the low-pressure compression unit 11 is further supplied via the conduit 17'' with lubricating oil from the high-pressure oil separator 19 via the lines 19' and 19''.
  • the various differences in pressure of the cycle, and in particular the intermediate pressure inside the chamber 27 are used to supply the lubricating oil to the intake side of the feeding pump 17. It is therefore possible to use normal commercially available pumping devices even if they have a relatively low pressure differential insufficient for compressors with high-compression ratios, thus reducing considerably the costs of the compressor.
  • the intermediate-pressure oil chamber 27 is located between the low-pressure unit 11 and the high-pressure unit 12, defining a chamber for collecting the lubricating oil. Therefore, advantageously this oil chamber 27 surrounds the coupling 15 connecting the shafts of the rotors, thus making it possible to achieve a two-stage compressor with an integrated structure, which occupies a limited amount of space and is able to use conventionally designed compressors.
  • the ends of the two compression units 11 and 12 opposite to the intake ends of the compressor are directed towards the intermediate-pressure oil chamber 27. Therefore, on this side of the compression units, it is not necessary to provide any special seal since any leaks or seepages of gas are prevented by the said oil chamber 27.
