Publication number: 20150001981Abstract: In the regions around a magnetic shielding space, curved portions and having a rounded shape, which protrude toward the interior space of a magnetic shielding space, are formed at ends of a first side and a second side close to a first end and a second end of an outer-periphery side. In the vicinity of angular portions and of the magnetic shielding space that are positioned at both ends of the outer-periphery side, the magnetic flux density for a given cross-sectional area of a channel through which a short-circuit magnetic flux flows is reduced, and thus, the level of the short-circuit magnetic flux is reduced.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 21, 2013Publication date: January 1, 2015Applicant: MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES AUTOMOTIVE THERMAL SYSTEMS CO., LTD.Inventors: Makoto Hattori, Mikito Sasaki, Shinichi Isobe

Patent number: 8851259Abstract: When grooves 44, 45A and 45B of an armature 42 and a rotor 43 are formed by laser beam machining, a metal oxide layer 100 is formed on wall surfaces defining the grooves 44, 45A and 45B. The metal oxide layer 100 is brought into sliding contact with a first contact surface A1 to a fourth contact surface A4 in a process in which an electromagnetic clutch is used, so that a part of the metal oxide layer 100 is ground and peeled off, whereby particles made of a metal oxide are produced. The particles enter the contact surface between the armature 42 and the rotor 43, which increases the frictional force therebetween to thereby prevent slippage. As a result, the torque transmission capability of the electromagnetic clutch M is enhanced, and the increase in the torque of a scroll compressor is achieved.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2010Date of Patent: October 7, 2014Assignee: Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Masafumi Hamasaki, Masanori Takahashi, Shinichi Isobe
