  • Patent number: 9115706
    Abstract: A compressor includes a housing, compression unit, discharge chamber, outlet, and oil separation structure. The oil separation structure, which is arranged between the discharge chamber and the outlet, includes an oil reservoir, oil separation compartment, intake passage, exhaust passage, and supply passage. The oil separation compartment is located upward from the oil reservoir. The intake passage, which extends upward from the oil separation compartment, draws refrigerant gas into the oil separation compartment from the discharge chamber to separate lubrication oil from the refrigerant gas. The exhaust passage extends upward from the oil separation compartment and discharges the refrigerant gas in the oil separation compartment out of the housing through the outlet. The supply passage extends upward from the oil separation compartment and has a larger cross-sectional area than the intake passage. The supply passage supplies the oil reservoir with lubrication oil from the oil separation compartment.

  • Patent number: 8535029
    Abstract: A scroll type compressor has a rotary shaft, a fixed scroll member, a movable scroll member and a rib. The fixed scroll member has a fixed end plate and a fixed scroll wall. The fixed end plate has first and second sides. The fixed scroll wall is formed on the first side. The movable scroll member has a movable end plate and a movable scroll wall. The movable scroll wall is formed on the movable end plate. The movable scroll member is adapted to make an orbital motion in accordance with the rotation of the rotary shaft whereby a compression chamber to decrease the volume of the compression chamber with the orbital motion of the movable scroll member is formed between the fixed scroll member and the movable scroll member. The rib is provided on the second side so as to extend behind the inner end of the fixed scroll wall.

  • Patent number: 5768277
    Abstract: An automatic ID assigning device for LAN instruments connected in a network assigns ID numbers from a master LAN instrument to respective slave LAN instruments connecting sequentially to the master LAN instrument. A first slave LAN instrument stores, as its own self ID, an ID number supplied in an ID assignment command signal supplied from the master LAN instruments through a data line connecting ports of respective slave LAN instruments. The slave LAN instrument returns an ID assignment acknowledging signal to the master LAN instrument and connects upper and lower ports of the slave LAN instrument together. The master LAN instrument updates a connecting number table of the ports of the slave IDs upon receipt of the assignment acknowledging signals and transmits a subsequent ID assigning command signal to another slave LAN instrument through the data line and through the connected ports of slave LAN instruments to which ID numbers have already been assigned. The upper and lower ports, i.e.
