Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008072809A1] Provided is an apparatus for adjusting a top clearance of a reciprocating compressor including: a housing, a cylinder block having a plurality of cylinder bores, pistons reciprocally accommodated in the cylinder bores, a piston drive means for driving the pistons, piston connection shafts connected to the pistons, suction/discharge valves installed opposite to bottoms of the pistons, and a suction chamber and a discharge chamber formed in the housing through the medium of the suction/discharge valves, characterized in that each of the piston connection shafts has a conveyance nut threadedly engaged therearound. Therefore, it is possible to readily and precisely adjust a top clearance between a piston and a valve apparatus of a reciprocating compressor, and a dead volume caused by the top clearance can be minimized depending on characteristics of the valve and piston.
