  • Patent number: 8033798
    Abstract: A vibration damper includes a first damping member coupled to a compressor, a second damping member coupled to the first damping member, and a dispersion member between the first and second damping members to disperse torsional vibration forces from the compressor. The dispersion member may also serve to disperse axial and torsional vibration forces received from the compressor through the first damping member.

  • Patent number: 7942656
    Abstract: A compressor and device for reducing vibration therefor is provided herein. The compressor includes a compression device having a compression chamber, and configured to receive, compress, and output a refrigerant, a drive motor configured to rotate the compression device to compress a refrigerant within the compression chamber, and a torsional vibration absorbing device attached to the motor and configured to absorb torsional vibration.

  • Patent number: 7766632
    Abstract: A scroll-type compressor includes a compression unit, a main frame supporting the compression unit, and a driving shaft having an oil supply path. The oil supply path is located eccentrically with the driving shaft and an upper part of the driving shaft is supported by the main frame. The compressor also has a motor for rotating the driving shaft, an oil cap located on an upper side of a rotor of the motor, and a balance member to compensate the driving shaft.

  • Patent number: 7527484
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a muffler of a scroll compressor. The muffler includes a first muffler having a pair of chambers defined above an outlet of a fixed scroll to communicate with the outlet and a gas passage hole formed at the center of an upper end thereof, and a second muffler located around the first muffler to be spaced apart from the gas passage hole of the first muffler and having a chamber including one or more guidance paths of the fixed scroll. The muffler can achieve reduction of operational noise, sufficient separation of oil contained in discharge gas, and efficient isolation between a discharge pressure inside the muffler and outside suction pressure.

  • Patent number: 7390180
    Abstract: A hermetic compressor uses an oil pump that includes a trochoid gear. Therefore, regardless of the rotation speed of a driving motor of the compressor, a sufficient amount of oil can always be pumped. The oil pump unit may include a plurality of suction holes with openings at different heights. If the refrigerant and oil separate, at least one of the openings will admit oil into the oil pump unit, to ensure lubricating oil is supplied to the moving parts of the compressor.
