Abstract: A compressor includes a casing having a cylindrical barrel, a compression mechanism, and an electric motor. The electric motor has a tubular stator, and a rotor disposed inside the stator. The stator has a back yoke forming an outer peripheral portion of the stator, a plurality of teeth extending radially inward, and slots. A fluid passage extends between an outer peripheral surface of the stator and an inner peripheral surface of the barrel. The fluid passage has a plurality of wide portions arranged in a circumferential direction of the stator, and a narrow portion provided between adjacent ones of the wide portions. The narrow portion has a smaller radial width than each of the wide portions. Each wide portion is provided in the outer peripheral surface of the stator and between a core cut having a recessed groove shape between the slots and the inner peripheral surface of the barrel.

Abstract: A multistage compression system uses refrigerant and oil. The multistage compression system includes a low-stage compressor that compresses the refrigerant, a high-stage compressor that further compresses the refrigerant compressed by the low-stage compressor, and an oil return pipe that returns the oil discharged by the high-stage compressor or the oil in the high-stage compressor to the low-stage compressor. The low-stage compressor has a rotary compression part that compresses the refrigerant, a motor that drives the compression part, and a container housing the compression part and the motor. The motor is disposed above the compression part. The oil return pipe is connected to a space below the motor inside the container.

Abstract: A compressor device includes first and second compressors. The first and second compressors include first and second casings having bottom portions in which lubricant is to be stored, first and second compression mechanisms provided in the casings to compress refrigerant and discharge the compressed refrigerant into the casings, and first and second motors provided in the casings. The first and second motors each include a stator and a rotor, and drive the first and second compression mechanisms. The second compressor compresses the refrigerant discharged from the first compressor. The first and second motors have first and second passages extending from axial ends of the first and second motors and through which the refrigerant discharged from the first and second compression mechanisms passes. A cross-sectional area of the second passage is larger than a cross-sectional area of the first passage. A refrigeration apparatus includes the compressor device.

Abstract: A multistage compression system uses refrigerant and oil. The multistage compression system includes a low-stage compressor that compresses the refrigerant, a high-stage compressor that further compresses the refrigerant compressed by the low-stage compressor, refrigerant pipes that-introduce the refrigerant compressed and discharged by the low-stage compressor into a suction part of the high-stage compressor, a pressure reducing element disposed between the refrigerant pipes, an accumulator disposed between the refrigerant pipes at a downstream side of the pressure reducing element and at an upstream side of the high-stage compressor, and an oil discharge pipe. The oil discharge pipe discharges the oil in the low-stage compressor. The oil discharge pipe connects the low-stage compressor and a portion of the refrigerant pipes. The portion of the refrigerant pipes is on a downstream side of the pressure reducing element and an upstream side of the accumulator.
