Patent number: 8678794Abstract: The invention concerns a refrigerant compressor arrangement (1) with a housing (2, 3) comprising a suction opening (5), a compressor (15), which is arranged in the housing (2, 3), and is connected to the suction opening (5), and a suction connection (20) that is fixed at the housing (2, 3), and comprises a housing section (21) and a tube section (22), the housing section (21) being connected to the suction opening (5) and the diameter of the tube section (22) being different from the diameter of the housing section (21). With such a refrigerant compressor arrangement, it is endeavoured to keep the dimensions small. For this purpose, in the longitudinal direction of the suction connection (20) the housing section (21) and the tube section (22) overlap each other and are connected to each other by a corrugated area (23) with at least one radial corrugation.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2009Date of Patent: March 25, 2014Assignee: Secop GmbHInventors: Frank Holm Iversen, Marten Nommensen, Heinz Otto Lassen, Ekkehard Handke, Dirk Sommer

Patent number: 8356549Abstract: The invention concerns a method of mounting a cylinder arrangement of a hermetically enclosed refrigerant compressor arrangement in a carrier arrangement (14, 15), in which the cylinder arrangement is inserted in the carrier arrangement (14, 15), aligned in relation to a crank shaft (5) and connected to the carrier arrangement (14, 15). It is endeavored to ensure a good efficiency of the refrigerant compressor arrangement. For this purpose the carrier arrangement is deformed, before inserting the cylinder arrangement, by means of a calibration cylinder (40), until the calibration cylinder (40) has a predetermined alignment, after which the calibration cylinder (40) is removed and replaced by the cylinder arrangement in the carrier arrangement (14, 15).Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2009Date of Patent: January 22, 2013Assignee: Secop GmbHInventors: Frank Holm Iversen, Marten Nommensen, Ekkehard Handke, Norbert Stöcken
