  • Patent number: 6739847
    Abstract: The present invention mainly includes a valve cock and a valve cock cover to form a structure of check valve, of which a trepan boring is set on the cover to accommodate the valve cock, and a pressure guide hole is set on the cover body to connect the high-pressure and valve cock trepan boring. A blast groove is set on the binding surface of the valve cock cover and shielding seat to release refrigerant. The valve cock is pressed against the vent hole of the shielding seat under the effect of the high-pressure chamber, and then the high-pressure refrigerant is blocked from flowing back into the low-pressure chamber. However, the high-pressure refrigerant will directly eject upward against the valve cock when the rotating turbine and fixed whirl run mutually, in addition the high-pressure refrigerant will flow into the high-pressure chamber via the blast groove.

  • Patent number: 6257852
    Abstract: The present invention proposes a balance structure of axial submission device for a scroll compressor. The present invention is characterized in that narrower cross section forms on the isolating block partitioning high pressure from low pressure in a scroll compressor such that the direction toward the stationary scroll of low pressure side has larger direct back pressure. Or more than one balance rooms are installed on the isolating block toward the back of the stationary scroll, a first resilient member is placed in the balance room, and the resilient member is lapped on the back of the stationary scroll. More than one anti-pressure rooms can also be installed on the orbiting scroll, and a second resilient member is placed in the anti-pressure room to provide slightly larger pressure for the second resilient member than pressure of the first resilient member when the orbiting scroll starts to rotate.
