Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015096848A1] The present invention relates to a crankshaft (1) which is suitable for use in a reciprocating compressor (2) of a refrigeration appliance, wherein the reciprocating compressor (2) has a variable refrigeration capacity. The crankshaft (1) comprises a shaft (3) which has an overhang portion (4) and a pin (5) for pivotably attaching a connecting rod (6) which is coupled to a piston head (7). The pin (5) is formed on the overhang portion (4) eccentrically with respect to a rotation axis (Ax) of the shaft (3). The crankshaft (1) of the present invention further comprises a mounting seat (17) configured to hold through the action of magnetic force one or more than one additional counterweight (8) which has a mass and shape determined in accordance with a target refrigeration capacity of the reciprocating compressor (2).
