  • Patent number: 7708536
    Abstract: A scroll-type refrigerant compressor with a sealed enclosure defined by a shell and containing a suction volume and a compression volume at opposite ends of the enclosure. The shell has a gas inlet, an electric motor on the suction side having a stator and defining with the shell an annular volume. The stator is surrounded by a jacket defining an annular volume with the shell and a chamber which contains the motor winding and is directed towards the compression volume, an end of the intermediate jacket directed away from the compression volume being located at an end of the stator directed away from the compression volume. Structure is provided for conveying some of the gas arriving at the gas inlet into the chamber containing the motor winding, and gas conveyed by the structure is admitted into the chamber containing the winding through the gas intake orifice.

  • Publication number: 20090035168
    Abstract: The invention relates to a scroll-type refrigerant compressor The inventive compressor comprises: a sealed chamber which is defined by a ferrule (2) and which contains a suction volume and a compression volume; and an electric motor which is disposed on the suction side and which comprises a stator (7) and a rotor (8), the latter being solidly connected to a drive shaft (26). The stator (7) is surrounded by an intermediate casing (6) which defines (i) an annular volume (13) with the moving ferrule (2) of the compressor and (ii) a chamber (11) containing the coil end of the motor and facing the compression volume side. The end of the intermediate casing that faces the side opposite the compression volume is disposed at the end of the stator facing the side opposite the compression volume or set back from same. In addition, means (14) are provided in order to convey at least part of the gas arriving at the gas inlet in the ferrule into the chamber (11) containing the coil end.

  • Patent number: 6736607
    Abstract: Compressor, comprising a sealed outer casing, inside which is arranged a gas compression stage driven by a motor arranged inside the outer casing. The lower part of the inner casing containing the motor is sealingly closed by a bottom, and at least one vertical chimney is arranged in the annular space formed between the outer casing and the lower casing, the chimney being arranged substantially vertically along the motor and the lower casing, and communicating in its upper part with the low-pressure zone of the compressor and, in its lower part, with the inside of the lower casing, one or more openings being made between the chimney and the bottom of the motor.
