  • Patent number: 5152682
    Abstract: A gas compressor comprises a fixed scroll member and a movable scroll member. A plurality of crescent working chambers are defined between the scroll members so that the volume of the working chambers varies when the scroll members are relatively moved. The compressor has a container which seals a power source and the scroll members and forms inner spaces therebetween. An intake port for drawing a gas from the exterior of the container into the working chambers is formed in the outer peripheral region of the fixed scroll member, and an axial port is formed in the inner region of the fixed scroll member so that the working chambers communicates therewith.

  • Patent number: 4826408
    Abstract: A two-cylinder rotary compressor includes a closed casing, a compression section, and an electric motor section, both arranged in the casing, for driving the compression section. The compression section comprises first and second assemblies. The first assembly is constructed by securing a first cylinder to a first bearing, in alignment therewith. The second assembly is constructed by securing a second cylinder to a second bearing, in alignment therewith. The first and second assemblies are aligned with and secured to each other while a partitioning plate is interposed between the first and second cylinders. First and second rollers are rotatably arranged in the first and second cylinders, respectively. These rollers are rotated by a rotational shaft which is supported by the first and second bearings and driven by the electric motor section.

  • Patent number: 4730996
    Abstract: A rotary compressor includes a compression section disposed in a case. The compression section has a cylinder and first and second bearings fixed on both sides of the cylinder to define a compression chamber together with the cylinder. A first discharge mechanism for discharging a fluid compressed in the compression chamber into the outside of the chamber is provided at the first bearing. A second discharge mechanism for discharging a fluid compressed in the compression chamber into the outside of the chamber is provided at the second bearing. The first mechanism has a first discharge port formed in the first bearing and a first discharge valve for opening and closing the first port. The second mechanism has a second discharge port formed in the second bearing and a second discharge valve for opening and closing the second port with a different frequency from that of the first valve.
