  • Compressor valve assembly
    Patent number: 6772792
    Abstract: The valve assembly includes a valve plate having a refrigerant discharging hole, a discharging valve having one end that is settled at the valve plate for opening and closing the refrigerant discharging hole, a keeper, placed at above the discharging valve, having one end that is connected with the valve plate with the discharging valve for limiting lift of the discharging valve, and a bead protruded for a predetermined width W and height H at a lower side of the keeper. The lift L of the discharging valve can be maintained evenly, since the bead compresses an upper side of the discharging valve. Moreover, the discharging valve is firmly settled at the valve plate. Accordingly, abnormal noise generated when refrigerant is discharged can be reduced because the discharging valve operates with stability.
