  • Patent number: 6402485
    Abstract: Scroll compressor including a shell having an inlet tube for drawing a refrigerant, and an outlet tube for discharging the compressed refrigerant, a compressor part arranged in an upper portion of the shell having an inlet hole for drawing refrigerant flowed through the inlet tube for compressing the refrigerant flowed through the inlet hole, a motor part arranged in a lower portion of the shell for transmission of a driving force for operating the compressor part, and a main frame having an edge arranged adjoined to a baffle, which baffle is provided for splitting the refrigerant flowed into the shell through the inlet tube into a flow for the compressor part and a flow for the motor part, and which edge has a curved guide surface extended to the inlet hole of the compressor part for forming a refrigerant flow passage together with the baffle, thereby improving performance of the compressor by preventing additional pressure loss and temperature rise.

  • Publication number: 20020032947
    Abstract: A vacuum cleaner has a case including a dust chamber filtering dust included in air, an appliance chamber sucking the filtered air from the dust chamber and discharging the air through a discharge port, and a cord chamber storing a wound electrical cord. A fan motor assembly is installed inside the appliance chamber of the case for forcedly sucking the air inside the appliance chamber and discharging the air. An exhaust duct is installed between the fan motor assembly and the discharge port in the case and guiding the air discharged from the fan motor assembly to the discharge port, and a flowing passage is disposed between the dust chamber and the cord chamber so that the air is able to flow therein, whereby overheating of case and of the electrical cord can be prevented and the durability and reliability of the cleaner can be enhanced.
