Patent number: 8159165Abstract: A first semiconductor switching element connects to a high side of a motor and includes a diode whose cathode faces the high side. A second semiconductor switching element having a diode resides on a low side of the first semiconductor switching element. A third semiconductor switching element having a diode resides on a low side of the motor. A fourth semiconductor switching element is connected in parallel to the motor and configures a return current circuit that includes a return current element and causes a return current that arises when the first semiconductor switching element turns off to flow through the return current element. A control portion controls on-off states of the first to the fourth semiconductor switching elements and performs return current circuit failure detection based on a first monitor voltage that is an electric potential of a connecting point between the first semiconductor switching element and the motor.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2009Date of Patent: April 17, 2012Assignee: Advics Co., LtdInventors: Isao Okamoto, Hiroyuki Matsumori

Patent number: 7303379Abstract: An object is to execute sure oil supplying to a second rotary compression element in a horizontal type compressor equipped with the second rotary compression element in which pressure becomes higher than that in an airtight container. A horizontal type rotary compressor of a multistage compression system comprises a driving element and a compression mechanism section driven by the driving element in a horizontal type airtight container. The compression mechanism section is constituted of first and second rotary compression elements. A refrigerant compressed by the first rotary compression element is discharged into the airtight container, and the discharged refrigerant of intermediate pressure is further compressed by the second rotary compression element to be discharged. A gist is that an oil supply passage is formed in a cylinder of the second rotary compression element 34 to communicate a low-pressure chamber of the cylinder with a bottom part in the airtight container.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2004Date of Patent: December 4, 2007Assignee: Sanyo Electric Co., Ltd.Inventors: Toshiyuki Ebara, Hiroyuki Matsumori, Takashi Sato, Dai Matsuura, Takayasu Saito
