SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED BY THE INVENTION
However, in the rotary compressor described in the Patent Document 1, it is necessary to enlarge the inner diameter of the cylinder chamber in order to increase a discharge volume, and an inner diameter of a hermetic case also becomes large since a pressure resistance falls with the enlargement. In particular, in a case that a discharge pressure is high, it is necessary to thicken a thickness of the hermetic case, which causes enlargement of size, increase of weight and deterioration of resource-saving property of a rotary compressor. Thus, it may be considered to enlarge H/D to increase a discharge volume without enlarging an inner diameter of the hermetic case. However, in the case, since the diameter of an electric motor cannot be enlarged, a compression load torque becomes excessively large in a 4-pole electric motor which is generally used conventionally and the compressor efficiency lowers.
An object of an embodiment of the invention is to provide a rotary compressor which is small in size yet large in discharge volume and a refrigerating cycle device using the rotary compressor.

According to a rotary compressor of an embodiment, the rotary compressor comprises a hermetic case, an electric motor which is housed at an upper portion in the hermetic case and has six or more poles, a compression mechanism portion which is housed at a lower portion in the hermetic case and is driven via a rotary shaft connected to the electric motor, and a discharge pipe which is provided at the upper portion in the hermetic case, wherein
the compression mechanism portion has two cylinders which have covered upper and lower both ends and cylinder chambers formed inside, compresses a working fluid by eccentric rotation of a roller fitted to the rotary shaft in the cylinder chambers and discharges the compressed working fluid into the hermetic case,
the electric motor has a rotor which rotates with the rotary shaft and a stator which surrounds the outer periphery of the rotor,
a discharge flow channel which leads the working fluid discharged from the insides of the cylinder chambers to a side of the discharge pipe is formed, and
a maximum discharge pressure of the working fluid becomes three or more MPa, wherein
the rotary compressor is characterized in that any of the following relational expressions (1) to (3) are satisfied where an inner diameter of the cylinder chambers is D1, a total height of the cylinder chambers of the two cylinders is H, a distance from an upper end portion of the stator to an inner wall surface of an upper portion of the hermetic case is L1, a sectional area of an inner side of the hermetic case is Ac, a total sectional area of the discharge flow channel is Ad and a thickness of a stator core of the stator is T.

An accumulator 6 is provided in the rotary compressor 2. In the refrigerating cycle device 1, a refrigerant which is a working fluid circulates while phase-changing to a gas refrigerant in a gas state and to a liquid refrigerant in a liquid state. Heat is radiated in a process of phase-change from a gas refrigerant to a liquid refrigerant. Heat is absorbed in a process of phase-change from a liquid refrigerant to a gas refrigerant. Using these heat radiation and heat absorption, air heating, air cooling, heating, cooling etc. are performed.
A gas refrigerant is compressed in the rotary compressor 2. In the condenser 3, the compressed gas refrigerant is condensed and becomes a liquid refrigerant. The condensed liquid refrigerant is decompressed in the expansion device 4. In the evaporator 5, the decompressed liquid refrigerant evaporates and becomes a gas refrigerant. In the accumulator 6 of the rotary compressor 2, liquid refrigerant is removed when the liquid refrigerant is contained in the gas refrigerant which is evaporated in the evaporator 5.
The rotary compressor 2 has a cylindrical hermetic case 7. Upper and lower ends of the hermetic case 7 are covered, and the hermetic case 7 is kept in an air-sealed state. An electric motor 8 is housed at an upper portion in the hermetic case 7. A compression mechanism portion 9 which is a portion to compress a gas refrigerant is housed at a lower portion in the hermetic case 7. A rotary shaft 10 is connected to the electric motor 8, and the compression mechanism portion 9 is driven via the rotary shaft 10. A gas refrigerant compressed in the compression mechanism portion 9 is discharged into an interior of the hermetic case 7, and the interior of the hermetic case 7 is filled with a high-pressure gas refrigerant. A discharge pipe 11 is provided at an upper portion of the hermetic case 7, and the high-pressure gas refrigerant in the interior of the hermetic case 7 is led to the condenser 3 through the inside of the discharge pipe 11. A lubricating oil 12 is reserved at a bottom portion in the hermetic case 7.
The electric motor 8 has a rotor 13 which is fixed to the rotary shaft 10 and rotates with the rotary shaft 10, and a stator 14 which surrounds the outer periphery of the rotor 13. The number of the poles of the electric motor 8 is six or more. The rotor 13 has a rotor core 13a which is formed by laminating electromagnetic steel sheets, and a plurality of permanent magnets 13b which are inserted in an inside of the rotor core 13a. The stator 14 has a stator core 14a which is formed by laminating electromagnetic steel sheets and has a field winding 14b which is wound around the stator core 14a. In the electric motor 8, a plurality of discharge flow channels 15 are formed. The discharge flow channels 15 lead a gas refrigerant discharged into the interior of the hermetic case 7 from the compression mechanism portion 9 to a side of the discharge pipe which is an upper side in the hermetic case 7. The discharge flow channels 15 are, for example, a through-hole formed to penetrate in an up-and-down direction in the rotor 13, a gap between an inner periphery of the hermetic case 7 and an outer periphery of the stator 14, a gap between an outer periphery of the rotor 13 and an inner periphery of the stator 14 etc.
The compression mechanism portion 9 has two cylinders 16a, 16b arranged in an up-and-down direction, a partition plate 17 arranged between the cylinders 16a, 16b to cover one end faces of these cylinders 16a, 16b, a main bearing 18 arranged at a side of the electric motor that is an upward side of the cylinder 16a and is one bearing to cover an end face of the cylinder 16a on the upward side, and a sub-bearing 19 arranged at a side opposite to the electric motor that is an downward side of the other cylinder 16b and is the other bearing to cover an end face of the cylinder 16b on the downward side. A cylinder chamber 20a is formed in the interior of the cylinder 16a whose both end faces are covered by the main bearing 18 and the partition plate 17. A cylinder chamber 20b is formed in the interior of the cylinder 16b whose both end faces are covered by the partition plate 17 and the sub-bearing 19.

Two eccentric portions 21a, 21b of a cylindrical shape are formed at the rotary shaft 10. One eccentric portion 21a is arranged in the cylinder chamber 20a, and the other eccentric portion 21b is arranged in the cylinder chamber 20b. A roller 22a is fitted to the eccentric portion 21a, and a roller 22b is fitted to the eccentric portion 21b. These rollers 22a and 22b are provided so as to rotate eccentrically while their outer peripheral faces contacts the inner peripheral faces of the cylinder chambers 20a, 20b slidably with rotation of the rotary shaft 10. A blade 23a is provided in the cylinder 16a, and a blade 23b which is reciprocating and slidable is provided in the cylinder 16b.

A muffler case 26a is attached to the main bearing 18 at a position surrounding the discharge valve 25a. A gas refrigerant discharged by opening the discharge valve 25a is discharged into the muffler case 26a, and then is discharged into the interior of the hermetic case 7 from a discharge hole 27 formed in the muffler case 26a. A muffler case 26b is attached to the sub-bearing 19 at a position surrounding the discharge valve 25b. A gas refrigerant discharged by opening the discharge valve 25b is discharged into the muffler case 26b, and then flows into the interior of the muffler case 26a through a communicating passage (not illustrated) and is discharged into the interior of the hermetic case 7 from the discharge hole 27 of the muffler case 26a.

In such configuration, the compression mechanism portion 9 is driven by rotation of the rotor 13 and the rotary shaft 10 through energization to the electric motor 8. By the driving of the compression mechanism portion 9, a low-pressure gas refrigerant passes the accumulator 6 and is sucked into the cylinder chambers 20a, 20b. The sucked gas refrigerant is compressed in the cylinder chambers 20a, 20b.
The gas refrigerant which is compressed in the cylinder chamber 20a and becomes high pressure is discharged into the muffler case 26a from the discharge valve 25a, and is discharged into the hermetic case 7 from the discharge hole 27 of the muffler case 26a. The gas refrigerant which is compressed in the cylinder chamber 20b and becomes high pressure is discharged into the muffler case 26b from the discharge valve 25b, flows into the muffler case 26a through the communicating passage which is not illustrated, then is discharged into the hermetic case 7 from the discharge hole 27 of the muffler case 26a. The gas refrigerant discharged into the hermetic case 7 from the discharge hole 27 is led to the side of the discharge pipe 11, which is the side of the upper portion in the hermetic case 7, through the discharge flow channel 15 formed in the electric motor 8, and is led to the condenser 3 through the discharge pipe 11.
Fig. 2 shows s a relation between "H/D1" and a ratio of a COP (Coefficient Of Performance) at a time of using a 4-pole electric motor and a COP at a time of using a 6-pole electric motor (a COP at a time of using a 4-pole electric motor / a COP at a time of using a 6-pole electric motor), in a case of enlarging the total height "H" of the cylinder chambers 20a, 20b to increase a discharge volume of a gas refrigerant while the inner diameter "D1" of the cylinder chambers 20a, 20b and the inner diameter of the hermetic case 7 are kept to be the same, under a rated condition using a refrigerant by which the maximum discharge pressure at a time of operation is three or more MPa (for example, R410A, R32, carbon dioxide).
From Fig. 2, it is found that, in the area of 0.85×D1<H<L1 which is an area in which the compression load torque is large, the COP ratio becomes one or more and the efficiency of a 6-pole electric motor becomes higher by copper loss suppressing effect or iron loss reducing effect due to decrease of a peak magnetic flux between iron cores at a time of a large current. Accordingly, in a case of 0.85×D1 < H < L1, by using a 6-pole electric motor, promotion of small diameter of the hermetic case 7, increase of discharge volume and high efficiency can be attained at the same time, and a rotary compressor 2 which has a high pressure resistance, is small, light in weight and large in discharge volume and has a high resource-saving property can be provided.
In Fig. 2, a case in which a 6-pole electric motor is compared to a 4-pole electric motor is described as an example, but a similar effect can be obtained in an electric motor of 6 or more poles, for example, an 8-pole electric motor, a 10-pole electric motor etc.
Fig. 3 shows a measurement result of an oil discharge volume of the lubricating oil 12 from the discharge pipe 11 with respect to Ad (a total sectional area of the discharge flow channel 15)/Ac (a sectional area of the space portion of the inner side of the hermetic case 7) when 0.85×D1<H is satisfied and the distance L1 from the upper end portion of the stator 14 to the inner wall surface of the upper portion of the hermetic case 7 is made larger than a total height H of the cylinder chambers 20a, 20b (H<L1).
The oil discharge quantity is denoted by a weight ratio to a circulation quantity of a gas refrigerant. The flow velocity of the gas refrigerant in the discharge flow channel 15 of the electric motor 8 becomes large as the discharge volume of the gas refrigerant is increased by changing the total height "H" of the cylinder chambers 20a, 20b without changing the inner diameter of the cylinder chambers 20a, 20b. Thus, it becomes difficult to separate lubricating oil from the gas refrigerant in the discharge flow channel 15, and it is found that the oil discharge quantity increases rapidly in a case of Ad/Ac<0.06, especially.
Fig. 4 shows an efficiency ratio of the 6-pole electric motor 8 to Ad/Ac. The efficiency ratio of the electric motor 8 is denoted by a ratio to an electric motor efficiency in a case of Ad/Ac=0.13. From Fig. 4, it is found that lowering of the space factor of the field winding 14b, lowering of the sectional area of the permanent magnet 13b etc. are invited in order to secure the area of the discharge flow channel 15 and that the efficiency of the electric motor 8 falls much, in a case of Ad/Ac>0.13. From these, the oil discharge quantity can be reduced while suppressing deterioration of electric motor efficiency, by satisfying H<L1 and 0.06<Ad/Ac<0.13 (the relational expression 2).
Fig. 5 shows an efficiency ratio of the 6-pole electric motor 8 to T (a thickness of the stator core 14a)/H (a total height of the cylinder chambers 20a, 20b) when 0.85×D1<H<L1 (the relational expression 1) and 0.06<Ad/Ac<0.13 (the relational expression 2).are satisfied The efficiency ratio of the electric motor 8 is denoted by a ratio to an efficiency of the electric motor at T/H=1.2. It is found that, in a case of T/H<1.2, the thickness "T" of the stator core 14a is small with respect to a compression load torque and lowering of the efficiency of the electric motor 8 is invited.
Fig. 6 shows a relation between a ratio (T/H) of a thickness T of the stator core 14a of the stator 14 to a total height H of the cylinder chambers 20a, 20b and a ratio of a pressure loss Wd of a gas refrigerant at the discharge flow channel 15 of the electric motor 8 to a theoretical work Wth of the compressor. At 1.5<T/H, Wd/Wth increases rapidly. From these, the pressure loss of the discharge flow channel 15 can be reduced while suppressing deterioration of the efficiency of the electric motor, under 1.2<T/H<1.5 (the relational expression 3).
Accordingly, by satisfying any of the above relational expressions 1 to 3, the rotary compressors 2, which has a high pressure resistance, is small and light in weight, has a large discharge volume, has a high resource-saving property, and moreover has a small oil discharge quantity and is high reliability can be provided.
In a case that thinning of the hermetic case 7 and increase of a discharge volume are enhanced, a sufficient quantity of the lubricating oil 12 can be reserved at the bottom of the hermetic case 7, by setting as Av/Ac>0.1 (the relational expression 4) and H<L2 (a distance from the lower end portion of the rotor 13 to an inner wall surface of a lower portion of the hermetic case 7)/2 (the relational expression 5). Even when the lubricating oil 12 is discharged, rapid fall of the oil surface of the lubricating oil 12 can be prevented and a more reliable rotary compressor 2 can be provided.
Fig. 7 shows a COP ratio under a rated conditions to D2/H which is a ratio of an inner diameter D2 of the main bearing 18 and the sub-bearing 19 and a total height H of the cylinder chambers 20a, 20b. The COP ratio is denoted by a ratio to COP at D2/H= 0.3. In the area of D2/H<0.3, a distance between principal axes becomes large by enlarging H, the rigidity of the rotary shaft 10 becomes insufficient and bending of the rotary shaft 10 becomes excessive so that COP falls greatly. On the other hand, in the area of D2/H>0.4, the diameter of the rotary shaft 10 becomes large more than needed with respect to a compression load torque, increase of an axial sliding loss is invited, and COP falls. From these, the rotary compressor 2 which becomes much more efficient can be provided by setting as 0.3<D2/H<0.4 (the relational expression 6).

Indeed, the embodiments described herein may be embodied in a variety of other forms; furthermore, various omissions, substitutions and changes in the form of the embodiments described herein may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.
