Patent number: 10180139Abstract: A compressor may include a shell containing a motor, a compression mechanism and a lubricant sump. The compressor may also include first and second temperature sensors, and a control module. The first temperature sensor may be at least partially disposed within the lubricant sump and may measure a first temperature of a lubricant at a first position. The second temperature sensor may be at least partially disposed within the lubricant sump and may measure a second temperature of the lubricant at a second position that is vertically higher than the first position. The control module is in communication with the first and second temperature sensors. The control module may determine a first difference between the first temperature and the second temperature. The control module may determine whether a liquid level of the lubricant in the lubricant sump is below a predetermined level based on the first difference.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2016Date of Patent: January 15, 2019Assignee: Emerson Climate Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Troy Richard Brostrom, Pavankumar Pralhad Jorwekar, Prashant Ramesh Jagdale, Vinayak Madanrao Juge, Pankaj Ahire

Patent number: 9528517Abstract: A compressor including a shell, and a compression mechanism disposed in the shell including a first scroll member having a first spiral wrap and a second scroll member having a second spiral wrap intermeshed with the first spiral wrap. A drive shaft has a first end engaged with the first scroll member for moving the first scroll member relative to the second scroll member, and a bearing assembly including a bearing housing rotatably supports a second end of the drive shaft. A base is secured to the shell, and a mounting feature formed on either the bearing assembly or the base orients the bearing assembly relative to the base.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2014Date of Patent: December 27, 2016Assignee: Emerson Climate Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Pankaj Nimbaji Ahire, Vinayak Madanrao Juge, Sunil A.

Patent number: 9022759Abstract: A compressor including a housing defining a suction pressure region and a discharge pressure region includes first and second scroll members forming compression pockets. A first chamber located on the first end plate of the first scroll member includes first and second passages and a first aperture extending therethrough and in communication with the first chamber. The first aperture provides communication between a compression pocket and the first chamber. A modulation assembly is located in the first chamber and includes a heater and a thermal valve. The valve is displaceable from a first position that isolates the first passage from the second passage and a second position that permits communication between the first and second passages. The valve is displaced as a result of a temperature change provided by the heater.Type: GrantFiled: August 5, 2013Date of Patent: May 5, 2015Assignee: Emerson Climate Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Sunil Annappa Magadum, Vinayak Madanrao Juge
