Abstract: Dual capacity compressor including a power generating part including a reversible motor and a crank shaft inserted in the motor, a compression part including a cylinder, a piston in the cylinder, and a connecting rod connected to the piston, a crank pin in an upper part of the crank shaft eccentric to an axis of the crank shaft, an eccentric sleeve having an inside circumferential surface rotatably fitted to an outside circumferential surface of the crank pin, and an outside circumferential surface rotatably fitted to an end of the connecting rod, a key member for coupling the eccentric sleeve with the crank pin positively in all rotation directions of the motor, and damping means for damping impact occurred between the eccentric sleeve and members adjoin thereto, thereby preventing relative motion and wear/noise between parts that maintain an eccentricity.

Abstract: A dual capacity compressor, which can maintain a fixed eccentricity and stable operation, even when the compressor is rotated in both the regular and reverse directions in order to provide multiple compression capacities, is provided. This dual capacity compressor implements an improved key member and associated key member fitting parts to inhibit relative motion of the crank pin and the eccentric sleeve during operation, so as to reduce or eliminate a destabilizing effect due to centrifugal forces on the eccentric sleeve and external forces applied through the connecting rod.

Abstract: Dual capacity compressor is provided to prevent relative movement between parts that maintain eccentricity. To this end, the dual capacity compressor comprises a power generating unit 20, having a reversible motor 21 and 22 and a crank shaft 23 inserted into the motor 21 and 22; a compressing unit 30 having a cylinder 32, a piston 31 and a connecting rod 33 connected with the piston 31; a crank pin 110 and 210 eccentrically formed on an upper end portion of the crank shaft 23; an eccentric sleeve 120 and 220 mounted between the crank pin 110 and 210 and one end of the connecting rod 33; and a key member 130 and 230 for completely restricting the eccentric sleeve 120 and 220 to the crank pin 110 and 210 in both clockwise and counter clockwise direction rotations of the motor.
