Patent number: 9494154Abstract: The refrigerator includes: a cooling-water line having a cooling-water pump to thereby send water for cooling a refrigerant inside of a condenser; a lubricating-water supply line connecting the part downstream from the cooling-water pump on the cooling-water line and a compressor 4 and supplying water flowing through the cooling-water line as a lubricant to the compressor 4; and a backup portion supplying water to the lubricating-water supply line instead of supplying water from the cooling-water line when the cooling-water pump is not driven.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2011Date of Patent: November 15, 2016Assignees: Tokyo Electric Power Company, Incorporated, Chubu Electric Power Company, Incorporated, THE KANSAI ELECTRIC POWER CO., INC., KABUSHI KAISHA KOBE SEIKO SHO, DANISH TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE, JOHNSON CONTROLS DENMARK APSInventors: Ryo Fujisawa, Masatake Toshima, Toshikatsu Kanemura, Yoshihiro Nakayama, Koichiro Iizuka, Satoshi Ide, Kunihiko Suto, Kazutaka Kurashige, Ichirou Sakuraba, Daisuke Hayashi, Keiji Sugano, Shinji Shato, Hans Madsboll, Klaus Damgaard Kristensen

Patent number: 8621882Abstract: A compressor and a refrigerating machine which enable an easy disposal of a lubricant, are friendly to the natural environment, and have simple configurations, are provided. The compressor which is used in a refrigerating machine including an evaporator and a condenser and adapted for compressing refrigerant gas evaporated in the evaporator to convey the compressed refrigerant gas to the condenser, includes: a motor; a housing having a compression chamber inside; a rotary member which has a rotating shaft and is rotated by a driving force of the motor so as to compress water vapor serving as the refrigerant gas in the compression chamber; a bearing for supporting the rotating shaft of the rotary member in the housing; and a lubricant supplier for supplying water serving as a lubricant to the bearing.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2009Date of Patent: January 7, 2014Assignees: Danish Technological Institute, Johnson Controls Denmark APSInventors: Koichiro Iizuka, Satoshi Ide, Toshikatsu Kanemura, Yoshihiro Nakayama, Masatake Toshima, Kazuto Okada, Kunihiko Suto, Kazutaka Kurashige, Ichirou Sakuraba, Daisuke Hayashi, Masaki Ikeuchi, Shinji Shato, Lars Bay Moller, Finn Jensen, Ziad Al-Janabi, Svend Rasmussen, Hans Madsboll, Christian Svarregaard-Jensen

Publication number: 20100281903Abstract: Service life of the compressor is extended. The evaporator is provided with the housing having the suction port connectable to the suction portion of the compressor in order to evaporate at least part of a droplet or misty working fluid in the housing by a suction effect of the compressor through the suction port, comprising a filter installed in the housing, the filter dividing a space in the housing into the first space for generating the droplet or misty working fluid and the second space for communicating with the suction port, the filter being inclined away from the suction port as advancing upward, and the filter transmitting therethrough vapor resulting from evaporation of the droplet or misty working fluid while capturing the droplet or misty working fluid.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 20, 2008Publication date: November 11, 2010Inventors: Kazuto Okada, Ryo Fujisawa, Masatake Toshima, Yoshihiro Nakayama, Satoshi Ide, Koichiro Iizuka, Kunihiko Suto, Kazutaka Kurashige, Ichirou Sakuraba, Daisuke Hayashi, Shinji Shato, Masaki Ikeuchi, Marcin Blazniak Andreasen, Hans Madsboll, Christian Svarregaard-Jensen
