Abstract: Disclosed are an oil separation apparatus (70) and a horizontal vortex compressor (1) comprising the oil separation apparatus (70). The oil separation apparatus (1) comprises a support (71) and a filter member (72), wherein the support (71) is generally cylindrical and comprises a cylindrical wall (712), the filter member (72) is arranged on the cylindrical wall (712), and the cylindrical wall (712) is provided with an opening (711, 713) used for working fluid to pass through; and the filter member (72) is generally cylindrical, and comprises an inner and an outer holding member (74, 76) holding inner and outer contours of the filter member (72) and end holding members (75a, 75b) provided on axial ends of the filter member (72). The oil separation apparatus (70) can increase the oil level of lubricating oil in the compressor (1), reducing disturbance in an oil tank and reducing oil circulation efficiency.

Abstract: A compressor may include a compression mechanism, a driveshaft, and an oil allocation member. The driveshaft drives the compression mechanism and includes a lubricant passage having an inlet and first and second outlets. The first outlet is disposed vertically higher than the inlet and the second outlet is disposed vertically higher than the first outlet. The oil allocation member is disposed within the lubricant passage. The oil allocation member may define first, second and third channels. The first channel extends through a lower axial end of the oil allocation member. The second channel receives a first portion of the lubricant from the first channel. The third channel receives a second portion of the lubricant from the first channel. The first and second portions of the lubricant may be separated from each other at a location that is vertically higher than the first outlet.

Abstract: A scroll compressor is provided, including: a compression mechanism, a driving mechanism, a suction fitting and a lubrication system. The compression mechanism is adapted to compress working fluid and includes a movable scroll component, a fixed scroll component and a suction window, the working fluid flows into the compression mechanism via the suction window. The driving mechanism includes a driving shaft and is adapted to drive the compression mechanism. The working fluid flows into the scroll compressor via the suction fitting and then flow into the compression mechanism. The lubrication system includes a lubricant source and a compression mechanism oil supply device adapted to supply the lubricant to the compression mechanism from the lubricant source. The compression mechanism oil supply device has an oil supply passage and an outflow opening of the oil supply passage is located between an opening of the suction fitting and the suction window.
