Abstract: To be as lightweight and compact, for example for automotive technology, a scroll compressor further includes an axial guide that supports the movable compressor body to prevent movements in the direction parallel to a centre axis of the stationary compressor body and, in the event of movements, guides it in the direction transverse to the centre axis. A coupling prevents the movable compressor body from rotating freely. The axial guide supports a compressor body base, which carries the scroll vane, of the second compressor body against an axial support face, in that the axial support face abuts a sliding body such that it is slidable transversely to the centre axis. The sliding body is slidable transversely to the centre axis, on a carrier element that is arranged in the compressor housing.

Abstract: In order to construct to be as lightweight and compact as possible, so that it can be used for example in automotive technology, the compressor including a compressor housing, a scroll compressor unit that is arranged in the compressor housing and has a first, stationary compressor body and a second compressor body that is movable in relation to the stationary compressor body, whereof first and second scroll vanes, in the shape of a circle involute, engage in one another to form compressor chambers when the second compressor body is moved in relation to the first compressor body on an orbital path, an axial guide that supports the movable compressor body to prevent movements in the direction parallel to a centre axis of the stationary compressor body and, in the event of movements, guides it in the direction transverse to the centre axis, a drive motor that drives an eccentric drive for the scroll compressor unit, wherein the eccentric drive has an entrainer that is driven by the drive motor, that revolves on

Abstract: A scroll compressor includes a discharge valve assembly for blocking compressed refrigerant flow from the discharge chamber through the scroll members. This blocking of flow results in the elimination of reverse rotation at shut down. The discharge valve assembly includes a leakage path which allows a limited amount of refrigerant flow past the discharge valve to eliminate the forming of a vacuum during powered reverse rotation. In one embodiment, a valve located in the leakage path provides a time delay to optimize the performance of the discharge valve assembly.

Abstract: A plastic terminal box is secured to a shell of a working machine. The plastic terminal box includes a plastic body which is secure to the shell and a plastic cover which is sealingly and releasably secured to the plastic body. The plastic body defines an aperture into which is inserted an electrical terminal of the working machine. A seal is located around the terminal and between the shell and the plastic body. The terminal and its associated electrical connections are thus isolated by the plastic terminal box due to the seal between the body and the shell and by the seal between the cover and the body.
