Patent number: 10648472Abstract: In order to further improve the sound damping in a refrigerant compressor comprising a common housing, a screw-type compressor in a common housing has a compressor housing that is formed as part of the common housing with a first sound absorber unit which is arranged in the common housing. The first sound absorber unit is arranged adjacent a housing window, and the sound absorber unit comprises at least one chamber which is located between an inlet opening and an outlet opening and which widens out relative to the inlet opening and to the outlet opening in a direction transverse to a direction of flow.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2014Date of Patent: May 12, 2020Assignee: BITZER Kuehlmaschinenbau GmbHInventors: Dominic Kienzle, Ashraf Agha, Stephan Roelke

Patent number: 9194619Abstract: In order to improve a refrigeration system comprising a refrigeration circuit, in which a refrigerant compressor, a condenser following on from the refrigerant compressor, an expansion device following on from the condenser and an evaporator following on from the expansion device are arranged, the evaporator being connected to the refrigerant compressor, wherein the refrigerant compressor has a drive motor speed-controlled by an electronic motor control and a control cooling branch which has refrigerant flowing through it, branches off from the refrigeration circuit between the condenser and the expansion device and is guided to a connection of the refrigerant compressor and in which a cooling element is arranged which is connected in a heat conducting manner to electronic power components of the motor control, in such a manner that disruption to the operation of the motor control is avoided as far as possible it is suggested that a regulating device be provided for the control cooling branch and this regulatType: GrantFiled: March 19, 2013Date of Patent: November 24, 2015Assignee: BITZER Kuehlmaschinenbau GmbHInventors: Birte Margotti, Stephan Roelke

Patent number: 6898948Abstract: In order to provide a screw compressor comprising two screw rotors which are disposed in screw rotor bores in a compressor casing and which compress a refrigerant entering at a refrigerant inlet and discharge it at a refrigerant outlet, and comprising an inlet provided in the compressor casing for refrigerant which is coming from a subcooling circuit and is passed to the inlet in a system of lines, the inlet being disposed in such a way that it opens out into compression spaces enclosed by the screw rotors and screw rotor bores, in which compressor the pressure oscillations or pulsations occurring at the inlet propagate as little as possible to the pipeline system of the subcooling circuit outside the compressor casing, it is proposed that the inlet is preceded by a damper channel which is associated with the system of lines and in which refrigerant from the subcooling circuit is present.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 2003Date of Patent: May 31, 2005Assignee: Bitzer Kuehlmaschinenbau GmbHInventors: Stephan Roelke, Klaus Hossner
