Abstract: A compressor incorporated with an oil separator having a separation chamber, which is placed adjacent to a discharge chamber, has a space formed in the entire inside of the separation chamber, separates oil-containing gas, being introduced, into gas and oil by centrifugal separation, allows the separated oil to drop downward, and upwardly extracts the separated gas, and also having a lower hole for introducing the separated oil into an oil storing chamber. The oil separator is formed as a joining structure of two compressor forming members, and a portion of the oil storing chamber, other than a portion where the lower hole is opened, is communicated with the separation chamber via a gas release passageway at least a part of which is formed between the two compressor forming members.

Abstract: A compressor incorporated with an oil separator having a separation chamber and communication holes. The separation chamber is placed adjacent to a discharge chamber, has a space formed in the entire inside of the separation chamber, separates oil-containing gas, which is introduced into the separation chamber, into gas and oil by centrifugal separation, allows the separated oil to drop downward, and upwardly extracts the separated gas. The communication holes interconnect the discharge chamber and the separation chamber and introduce the oil-containing gas, coming from the discharge chamber, into the separation chamber. The communication holes are arranged in the separation chamber, in a direction extending from a gas release side to an oil drop side. The structure of an oil separation section is simplified to improve productivity and reduce cost, and a high degree of design freedom of the position of a discharge port is obtained.

Abstract: Provided is an oil separator built-in compressor, which prevents a drop in the separating ability of an oil separator while reducing a pressure loss in a communication hole formed between a discharge chamber and an oil separation chamber and which also considers the working feasibility of a casing. The oil separator built-in compressor comprises: a separation chamber arranged adjacent to the discharge chamber and formed entirely thereof into a space in order to separate an oil-containing gas being introduced, centrifugally into gas and oil so that the separated oil flows downward whereas the separated gas is released upward; and the communication hole formed between the discharge chamber and the separation chamber in order to introduce the oil-containing gas from the discharge chamber into the separation chamber.

Abstract: Disclosed is an oil separator built-in scroll-type compressor which is compact and lightweight but still maintains the required strength, and which exhibits an excellent oil separating performance. The oil separator built-in scroll-type compressor includes a separation chamber which is disposed adjacent to a discharge chamber, and which separates an oil-containing gas introduced thereinto into gas and oil by centrifugal separation, and from which the separated oil is dropped downward and the gas is extracted upward; and a communication hole between the discharge chamber and the separation chamber through which the oil-containing gas is introduced from the discharge chamber into the separation chamber.

Abstract: [Object of the Invention] The object of the present invention is to provide a compressor comprising a scroll compressing mechanism provided with a fixed scroll having an end plate and a scroll body projecting from the end plate and a movable scroll having an end plate and a scroll body projecting from the end plate and meshing with the fixed scroll to form a plurality of operation chambers between them, and a housing accommodating the scroll compressing mechanism, wherein the housing cooperates with the end plate of the fixed scroll to form a discharge passage communicating with the scroll compressing mechanism and a discharge port connected to the higher pressure side portion of an external coolant circuit, the discharge passage is provided with a first discharge chamber opposing the center portion of the end plate of the fixed scroll, an oil separation chamber communicating with the first discharge chamber and opposing the outer peripheral portion of the end plate of the fixed scroll, and a second discharge

Abstract: A compressor with a built-in centrifugal oil separator is characterized in that the oil separator is formed between a first member and a second member constituting a compressor by the coupled structure of the first member and the second member. In the compressor, by simplifying the structure of the oil separation part, the productivity can be improved, the cost can be reduced, and the freedom of the design of the discharge port position can be ensured.
