  • Patent number: 11959681
    Abstract: A system for operational acoustic optimization of a variable speed compressor (2) includes a motor (6), a frequency inverter (3), and a control block (5). The frequency inverter (3) is electrically connected to the synchronous motor (6), an electrical network (4), and the control block (5). The control block (5) is configured to control the speed of the motor (6) and to establish a first switching frequency (F1) and a second switching frequency (F2) of the frequency inverter (3). The frequency inverter (3) is configured to start the variable speed compressor (2) by supplying motor (6) with a signal (9) with the first switching frequency (F1) for the duration of a time period (T1) corresponding to at least one alignment operation period of the motor (6) and to supply the motor (6) with a signal (9) with the second switching frequency (F2) after the time period (T1).

  • Publication number: 20220349636
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for operational acoustic optimization of a variable speed compressor (2) comprising a synchronous motor (6), a frequency inverter (3) and a control block (5), such optimization being carried out by modifying the switching frequency of the supply signal (9) of the motor (6) contained in the compressor (2), via a control block (5), only during the aligmnent phase of the motor (6), thus, not impairing the performance of the compressor (2), the thermal management of the inverter (3) and the acoustic performance of the system.

  • Patent number: 9845798
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a suspension disposed between a compression unit and the hermetic housing of hermetic reciprocating compressors for mobile application, such as, for example, application in automotive vehicles and similar, and to the method of assembly of the components that constitute the referred suspension. According to the present invention, it is disclosed a suspension for hermetic reciprocating compressor for mobile application capable of reducing the effects of an eventual and involuntary sudden movement of the compression unit and also of minimizing the transfer of vibrations and noises deriving from the environment outside the hermetic housing to the compression unit.
