Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of vapor cycle refrigerant system
in a helicopter, and more specifically relates to a medium-frequency hermetically
sealed refrigerant compressor capable of unloading during start.
[0002] Nowadays, a vapor cycle refrigerant system of a helicopter mainly comprises a compressor,
a medium-frequency motor, an evaporator, a condenser, an evaporation fan, a condensing
fan and an expansion valve. Motion transmission of the medium-frequency motor is achieved
by a belt so as to drive the compressor to realize refrigeration. This method of driving
the compressor has the following disadvantages: 1) motion transmission by using a
belt occupies a large area of spaces and requires good positioning of the components
and high precision with respect to installation; 2) the motor has an independent cooling
mechanism which requires additional cooling fan and air ducts etc. to be provided,
thereby resulting in undesirable bulkiness and heaviness; 3) tension of the belt and
its limited service life requires additional maintenance and replacement. A hermetically
sealed refrigerant compressor may effectively solve the above problems. However, a
hermetically sealed refrigerant compressor according to prior art generally has a
start current 5-7 times stronger than a working current. In an on-board device, such
a strong start current will trigger power protection of the helicopter and thus causes
power failure which is dangerous.
[0003] US 2 2018 521 A discloses a compression mechanism with a fluid tight enclosure divided into a motor
compartment and a compressor compartment, a motor and a compressor being disposed
in said compartments, respectively, wherein the compressor compartment provides a
reservoir for lubricant, means for supplying lubricant to the compressor, communicating
means between the outlet of the compressor and the motor compartment to conduct the
compressed medium discharged by the compressor and lubricant to the motor compartment
before the compressed medium and lubricant enters the compressor compartment.
[0004] US 1 826 172 discloses a power transmitting device with a housing of substantially tubular formation
having a transversely extending web provided with a tubular portion constituting a
bearing, a compressor shaft journaled in the bearing a split phase motor·within the
housing and having a :rotor hub rotatable freely on said shaft and abutting· the bearing,
and means substantially free from friction for transmitting motion positively from
the rotor hub to the shaft at a one to one ratio after the rotor hub has accelerated
from zero speed to a predetermined speed less than the normal running speed thereof.
The device comprises only a sun gear fixed directly to the shaft and rotatable planet
gears carried by the rotor hub and meshing with the sun gear, the planet gears being
individually unbalanced but arranged symmetrically with respect to the axis of the
shaft so that the gearing as a whole is always in balance.
Disclosure of the Invention
[0005] In view of the aforesaid disadvantages now existing in the prior art, the present
invention provides a medium-frequency hermetically sealed refrigerant compressor capable
of unloading during start. The medium-frequency hermetically sealed refrigerant compressor
achieves a low current start.
[0006] In order to attain the above object, the medium-frequency hermetically sealed refrigerant
compressor provided by the present invention comprises an electric connector, a front
end socket, a rear end socket, a barrel, a medium-frequency motor provided inside
the barrel, a movable disc, a motion transmission sleeve, a main shaft, a clutch coil
and a clutch friction plate.
[0007] A front end and a rear end of the barrel are connected with the front end socket
and the rear end socket respectively; a stator disc cooperating with the movable disc
is fixed in the barrel; the movable disc and the stator disc are sleeved on one side
of the main shaft; the clutch friction plate and the clutch coil are sleeved on another
side of the main shaft; the movable disc and the clutch friction plate are fixed on
a side surface of the main shaft; an output shaft of the medium-frequency motor is
connected with the clutch coil via the motion transmission sleeve; the electric connector
is fixed on the barrel; the electric connector is connected with the clutch coil.
[0008] The stator disc is fixed in the barrel by using screws.
[0009] A seal ring is provided between the stator disc and the side surface of the main
shaft.
Beneficial effects of the present invention
[0010] The medium-frequency hermetically sealed refrigerant compressor capable of unloading
during start provided by the present invention comprises an electric connector, a
barrel, a medium-frequency motor provided inside the barrel, a movable disc, a motion
transmission sleeve, a main shaft, a clutch coil and a clutch friction plate. During
operation, the voltage value is lowered upon starting, and the medium-frequency motor
drives the clutch coil to rotate via the motion transmission sleeve to achieve an
unloaded start; when rotation of the medium-frequency motor becomes stable, the electric
connector supplies power to the clutch coil so that the clutch coil and the clutch
friction plate will be mutually attracted to each other; as such, the main shaft will
be driven by the medium-frequency motor to rotate to achieve a low current start.
With the same refrigeration capacity, the present invention uses a hermetically sealed
structure so as to significantly reduce the size and weight of the vapor cycle refrigeration
system. At the same time, the present invention achieves a low current start of the
medium-frequency hermetically sealed refrigerant compressor to reduce the impact against
the on-board power supply.

Best Mode for Carrying out the Invention
[0013] The present invention will be described further in detail below with reference to
the figure.
[0014] In FIG. 1, the medium-frequency hermetically sealed refrigerant compressor provided
by the present invention comprises an electric connector 2, a front end socket 1,
a rear end socket 6, a barrel 7, a medium-frequency motor 3 provided inside the barrel
7, a movable disc 4, a motion transmission sleeve 8, a main shaft 9, a clutch coil
10 and a clutch friction plate 11. A front end and a rear end of the barrel 7 are
connected with the front end socket 1 and the rear end socket 6 respectively. A stator
disc 5 cooperating with the movable disc 4 is fixed in the barrel 7. The movable disc
4 and the stator disc 5 are sleeved on one side of the main shaft 9. The clutch friction
plate 11 and the clutch coil 10 are sleeved on another side of the main shaft 9. The
movable disc 4 and the clutch friction plate 11 are fixed on a side surface of the
main shaft 9. An output shaft of the medium-frequency motor 3 is connected with the
clutch coil 10 via the motion transmission sleeve 8. The electric connector 2 is fixed
on the barrel 7. The electric connector 2 is connected with the clutch coil 10. The
stator disc 5 is fixed in the barrel 7 by using screws. A seal ring is provided between
the stator disc 5 and the side surface of the main shaft 9. The clutch friction plate
11 is made by iron material.
[0015] The present invention has the following working principle: At first, power is not
supplied by the electric connector 2 to the clutch coil 10, and the clutch coil and
the clutch friction plate 11 are separated; next, activate the medium-frequency motor
3 so that the medium-frequency motor 3 drives the clutch coil 10 to rotate via the
motion transmission sleeve 8; when rotation of the medium-frequency motor 3 becomes
stable, the electric connector 2 supplies electricity to the clutch coil 10, and then
the clutch coil 10 is magnetized by the received electricity; the clutch coil 10 and
the clutch friction plate 11 will then be mutually attracted to each other to drive
the main shaft 9 to rotate via the medium-frequency motor 3; the movable disc 4 at
another side of the main shaft will then also rotate to achieve compression refrigeration.
