Patent number: 8529233Abstract: A displacement machine of spiral-type construction for a compressible medium includes a displacement body having a carrier disc and helical blades extending out from both sides of the carrier disc. The carrier disc has a hub which is supported by a hub bearing on an eccentric disc which is part of a driven drive shaft. The drive shaft is supported inside a housing by a first bearing and a second bearing. These bearings are arranged in receptacles which fully project into the feed chambers of the housing so that the bearings are positioned in close proximity to the eccentric disc.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2010Date of Patent: September 10, 2013Assignee: Spinnler EngineeringInventor: Fritz Spinnler

Patent number: 8425211Abstract: In a positive displacement machine for compressible media, having a spiral-shaped feed chamber (11) arranged in a housing (7b) between cylinder walls (14, 15), a spiral-shaped displacement body is composed of a disc (2) with spiral-shaped strips (3). The strips (3) are held eccentrically with respect to the housing, in such a way that, during operation, each point of the strip performs a movement which is limited by the peripheral walls of the feed chamber. The contour (20) of the disc is formed, in the overlapped region of the spiral at the point provided for the mutual sealing of the traversed chambers (11, 16), in the shape of the movement path. The housing edge (19) is formed, as a transition between the raised first part (17) and lowered second part (18) of the outer cylinder wall (14) of the housing, as a bulbous thickened portion. The radial extent “D” of the thickened portion is at least as great as the degree of eccentricity (“e”).Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2008Date of Patent: April 23, 2013Assignee: Spinnler EngineeringInventor: Fritz Spinnler

Patent number: 8051813Abstract: A scroll compressor for compressible fluids includes a fixed housing having a spiral-shaped feed chamber which contains a working fluid. A displacement member interacts with the feed chamber and includes a driveshaft which is supported in the housing and has an eccentric disk, a carrier disk which is mounted on the driveshaft, and spiral blades which extend out from both sides of the carrier disk. The displacement member is supported by a bearing on the eccentric disk. A lubricant supply system feeds lubricant to the bearing via the driveshaft and the eccentric disk, with a seal assembly sealing a lubricant chamber against the feed chamber.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2009Date of Patent: November 8, 2011Assignee: Spinnler EngineeringInventor: Fritz Spinnler
