  • Publication number: 20080101972
    Abstract: A single-way valve is used for scroll compressor. The single-way valve includes a stage, a valve disc and a baffle plate. The stage includes a panel and a guiding post connected to the panel, where a plurality of apertures is defined on the panel. The valve disc includes a through hole capped on the guiding post such that the valve disc has linear movement along the guiding post, The baffle plate is fixed on the guiding post to limit a moving stroke of the valve disc and includes gas runner. The contact area between the baffle plate and the valve disc is below 70% area of the valve disc. The valve disc can fall fast to seal the apertures of the stage to prevent pressured gas from flowing into pressured chamber of the scroll compressor. Noise caused by reverse running of scroll can also be prevented.
