FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of compressors, in particular
to a screw compressor, and further to a refrigeration system configured with the screw
compressor.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] Screw compressors are common equipment in industrial applications, which generally
include single-stage screw compressors, two-stage screw compressors, and three-stage
screw compressors etc. Among them, single-stage screw compressor, using a pair of
screw-shaped rotors to make rotary movement in the cylinder to compress and transport
gas and with a compressor main machine as its core component, is a type of positive
displacement compressor. The gas is compressed through the volume change of the tooth
space of the mutually meshing male and female rotors installed in parallel inside
the rotor housing, causing periodic volume changes in the gas between the tooth space
of the rotors, so that the gas is pushed from the suction side to the discharge side
along the rotor axis, thus completing the three working processes of suction, compression,
and discharge.
[0003] The existing two-stage screw compressors often adopt a two-stage single-machine form
under high compression ratio conditions. However, due to the complex structure and
numerous components, such compressors are high in cost and inconvenient to install.
Therefore, it is necessary to simplify the internal structure of the screw compressors,
so to improve reliability, reduce costs, and enhance market competitiveness.

[0022] FIG. 1 schematically illustrates the structure of an embodiment of a screw compressor
according to the present invention in general. The screw compressor 10 is composed
of a rotor set 100, a rotor housing 200 for accommodating the rotor set 100, a partition
plate 300, and other components. The rotor set 100 includes a pair of male rotor 110
and female rotor 120 meshing with each other and having spiral teeth in opposite rotating
directions. Specifically, the male rotor 110 is composed of several male rotor teeth
that are sequentially connected in the circumferential direction of the main shaft
A, and the female rotor 120 is composed of several female rotor teeth that are sequentially
connected in the circumferential direction of the main shaft B. Wherein, the gear
ratio of the male rotor teeth and the female rotor teeth can be, for example, 5:7
or 6:8. As can be clearly seen from FIGS. 1 and 2, the axis of the main shaft A of
the male rotor 110 and the axis of the main shaft B of the female rotor 120 are parallel
to each other, and the male rotor 110 and the female rotor 120 are respectively provided
with grooves in the same radial direction. Wherein, the grooves of the male rotor
110 and those of the female rotor 120 are arranged circumferentially around the male
rotor 110 and the female rotor 120 respectively and have the same width in the axial
direction. Wherein, the bottom surface of the grooves of the male rotor 110 and the
bottom surface of the grooves of the female rotor 120 are the outer circumference
surface of the main shaft A of the male rotor 110 and the outer circumference surface
of the main shaft B of the female rotor 120, respectively.
[0023] It should be emphasized that the partition plate 300 is an important component of
the two-stage screw compressor of the present invention, which constitutes the discharge
port for low-pressure/first-stage compression and the suction port for high-pressure/second-stage
compression. The basic structure of the partition plate and its relative positional
relationship, mutual cooperation, and connection relationship with other surrounding
components will be described in detail below in conjunction with the appended drawings.
[0024] In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the partition plate 300 is fixed to the
rotor housing 200, for example, by bolt connection, for dividing the rotor housing
200 into a low-pressure stage housing 210 and a high-pressure stage housing 220 that
are connected with each other. Wherein, the low-pressure stage housing 210 corresponds
to a low-pressure stage rotor pair, and the high-pressure stage housing 220 corresponds
to a high-pressure stage rotor pair. The starting end of the low-pressure stage rotor
pair, i.e., the first-stage suction port 230, is located on the rotor housing 200,
especially on the low-pressure stage housing 210. The tail end of the low-pressure
stage rotor pair, i.e., the first-stage discharge port 240, is located on one side
of the partition plate 300 facing the low-pressure stage housing 210. The starting
end of the high-pressure stage rotor pair, i.e., the second-stage suction port 250,
is located on one side of the partition plate 300 facing the high-pressure stage housing
220, and the tail end of the high-pressure stage rotor pair, i.e., the second-stage
discharge port 260, is located on the rotor housing 200, especially on the high-pressure
stage housing 220.
[0025] With continued reference to FIG. 4, the partition plate 300 can be made of metal,
such as high-strength steel, cast iron, or alloy, and includes a first annular section
310 and a second annular section 320 connected to each other. The first annular section
310 and the second annular section 320 are embedded in the grooves of the male rotor
110 and the female rotor 120, respectively. In addition, the width of the first annular
section 310 and that of the second annular section 320 in the axial direction is the
same or substantially the same as the width of the groove of the male rotor 110 and
that of the female rotor 120 in the axial direction. For example, the width of the
first annular section 310 and that of the second annular section 320 in the axial
direction is slightly smaller than the width of the groove of the male rotor 110 and
that of the female rotor 120 in the axial direction. Specifically, due to the relative
motion between the rotor set 100 and the partition plate 300, a small gap can be left
between the two. In addition, in order to allow the partition plate 300 to move axially
during installation, the distance between the partition plate 300 and the end face
of the low-pressure stage rotor pair can be adjusted within a certain set distance,
which is, for example, generally not greater than 0.1mm, and the distance between
the partition plate 300 and the end face of the high-pressure stage rotor pair is
set to about 1mm. Furthermore, the first annular section 310 has a free end 311 and
a connecting end 312 connected to the second annular section 320, and the second annular
section 320 has a free end 321 and a connecting end 322 connected to the first annular
section 310. In order to ensure the mutual flow of refrigerant gas between the low-pressure
stage housing 210 and the high-pressure stage housing 220, a first connecting notch
is formed circumferentially between the free end 311 and the connecting end 312 of
the first annular section 310, and a second connecting notch is formed circumferentially
between the free end 321 and the connecting end 322 of the second annular section
320, thereby forming the first-stage discharge port 240 and the second-stage suction
port 250. At this point, the area of the first-stage discharge port 240 is the same
as the area of the second-stage suction port 250. The range of the central angle of
the first annular section 310, i.e., the central angle of the circular arc section
between the free end 311 and the connecting end 312, is between X and 360° (excluding
the endpoint), where X=360 ° - α , and α is cornerite of the low-pressure section
of the male rotor. It should be noted that the cornerite of the low-pressure section
of the male rotor is the circumferential angle swept from the suction end face to
the discharge end face by the spiral movement of the tooth tip of the male rotor along
the tooth space. The range of the central angle of the second annular section 320,
i.e., the central angle of the circular arc section between the free end 321 and the
connecting end 322, is between Y and 360° (excluding the endpoint), where Y=360 °
- β , and β is cornerite of the low-pressure section of the female rotor. It should
be noted that the cornerite of the low-pressure section of the female rotor is the
circumferential angle swept from the suction end face to the discharge end face by
the spiral movement of the tooth tip of the female rotor along the tooth space. It
can be seen that the partition plate 300 reduces the radial area of refrigerant gas
flow in the radial direction of the rotor set 100 and can effectively achieve second-stage
compression.
[0026] In addition, the diameter of the annular outer surface of the first annular section
310 is the same or substantially the same as the diameter of the circle where the
tooth tips of the male rotor teeth of the male rotor 110 are located. For example,
the diameter of the annular outer surface of the first annular section 310 is slightly
larger than the diameter of the circle where the tooth tips of the male rotor teeth
of the male rotor 110 are located. Specifically, due to the relative rotation of the
male rotor 110 and the rotor housing 200, a small gap can be left between the two,
and the annular outer surface of the first annular section 310 can be tightly fixed
to the rotor housing 200. The diameter of the annular inner surface of the first annular
section 310 is the same or substantially the same as the diameter of the main shaft
A of the male rotor 110. For example, the diameter of the annular inner surface of
the first annular section 310 is slightly larger than the diameter of the main shaft
A of the male rotor 110. Meanwhile, the diameter of the annular outer surface of the
second annular section 320 is the same or substantially the same as the diameter of
the circle where the tooth tips of the female rotor teeth of the female rotor 120
are located. For example, the diameter of the annular outer surface of the second
annular section 320 is slightly larger than the diameter of the circle where the tooth
tips of the female rotor teeth of the female rotor 120 are located. Due to the relative
rotation between the female rotor 120 and the rotor housing 200, a small gap can be
left between the two, and the annular outer surface of the second annular section
320 can be tightly fixed to the rotor housing 200. The diameter of the annular inner
surface of the second annular section 320 is the same or substantially the same as
the diameter of the main shaft B of the female rotor 120. For example, the diameter
of the annular inner surface of the second annular section 320 is slightly larger
than the diameter of the main shaft B of the female rotor 120. When installing a screw
compressor, the operator can first embed or sleeve the first annular section 310 and
the second annular section 320 of the partition plate 300 into the groove of the male
rotor 110 and that of the female rotor 120, respectively, and insert the rotor set
100 together with the partition plate 300 into the accommodating chamber of the rotor
housing 200, thereby simplifying the installation steps. In this case, the low-pressure
stage housing 210 and the high-pressure stage housing 220 can be constructed as one
to form the rotor housing 200, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 4. At this point, the annular
outer surface of the first annular section 310 and the annular outer surface of the
second annular section 320 of the partition plate 300 can be fitted with the inner
wall of the rotor housing 200, making the internal space of the rotor housing 200
more compact. This can save unnecessary bolts and bolt holes, reduce installation
time, and save material costs.
[0027] In combination with the above embodiments, in other optional embodiments, the connecting
end 312 of the first annular section 310 and the connecting end 322 of the second
annular section 320 form the intermediate section 330 of the partition plate 300,
where the intermediate section 330 is located between the male rotor 110 and the female
rotor 120. For the convenience of manufacture, the first annular section 310 and the
second annular section 320 can be integrally formed. In addition, in order to improve
compression efficiency, the free end 311 of the first annular section 310 can be provided
with outlines that are the same or similar to the contour outlines of the male rotor
teeth of the male rotor 110, and the free end 321 of the second annular section 320
can be provided with outlines that are the same or similar to the contour outlines
of the female rotor teeth of the female rotor 120. In addition, the intermediate section
330 is provided with outlines that are the same or similar to the contour outlines
of the male rotor teeth of the male rotor 110, and/or the outlines that are the same
or similar to the contour outlines of the female rotor teeth of the female rotor 120.
[0028] In another embodiment of the partition plate of the screw compressor disclosed according
to the present invention as shown in FIG. 5, the first annular section 310a, the second
annular section 320a, the intermediate section 330a, the free end 311a and the connecting
end 312a of the first annular section 310a, the free end 321a and the connecting end
322a of the second annular section 320a, and other parts or components of the partition
plate 300a can refer to the aforementioned embodiment of the partition plate 300 as
shown in FIG.4, which will not be repeated here. The partition 300a further comprises
a first annular extension section 340a and a second annular extension section 350a.
The first annular extension section 340a is embedded in the groove of the male rotor
110, with one end 341a thereof connected to the connecting end 312a of the first annular
section 310a. And, the second annular extension section 350a is embedded in the groove
of the female rotor 120, with one end 351a thereof connected to the connecting end
322a of the second annular section 320a. The diameter of the annular outer surface
of the first annular extension section 340a is the same as the diameter of the circle
where the tooth tips of the male rotor teeth of the male rotor 110 are located, and
the diameter of the annular inner surface of the first annular extension section 340a
is the same or substantially the same as the diameter of the main shaft A of the male
rotor 110. In addition, the diameter of the annular outer surface of the second annular
extension section 350a is the same as the diameter of the circle where the tooth tips
of the female rotor teeth of the female rotor 120 are located, and the diameter of
the annular inner surface of the second annular extension section 350a is the same
or substantially the same as the diameter of the main shaft B of the female rotor
120.
[0029] On the one hand, the end face of the first annular extension section 340a facing
the high-pressure stage housing 220 is configured to be flush with the end face of
the first annular section 310a facing the high-pressure stage housing 220, and the
end face of the second annular extension section 350a facing the high-pressure stage
housing 220 is configured to be flush with the end face of the second annular section
320a facing the high-pressure stage housing 220. On the other hand, the width of the
first annular extension section 340a in the axial direction is the same as the width
of the second annular extension section 350a in the axial direction, and is smaller
than the width of the first annular section 310a in the axial direction and the width
of the second annular section 320a in the axial direction, so that the area of the
second-stage suction port 250 is smaller than the area of the first-stage discharge
port 240, thus further improving the compression ratio of the second stage.
[0030] For the convenience of manufacture, the first annular extension section 340a and
the second annular extension section 350a can be designed to be integrally formed
with the first annular section 310a and the second annular section 320a. In this case,
in order to install the integrally formed partition plate 300a into the groove of
the rotor set 100, the partition plate 300a can be divided into independent two or
more sections along the dashed line in FIG. 5 at the intermediate section 330. In
addition, in order to improve compression efficiency, the other end 342a of the first
annular extension section 340a is provided with outlines that are the same or similar
to the contour outlines of the male rotor teeth of the male rotor 110, and the other
end 352a of the second annular extension section 350a is provided with outlines that
are the same or similar to the contour outlines of the female rotor teeth of the female
rotor 120.
[0031] Those skilled in the art can readily contemplate that the annular inner surface of
the first annular section 310a, the annular inner surface of the second annular section
320a, the annular inner surface of the first annular extension section 340a, and the
annular inner surface of the second annular extension section 350a are respectively
provided with seal structures (not shown), such as labyrinth seal structures, or contact
or non-contact rotary seal structures such as oil groove seals, sliding ring seals,
lip seals, etc., so as to prevent refrigerant gas leakage. In this case, the gap between
the inner diameter of the seal structure and the bottom surface of the grooves of
the rotor set is designed to be no more than 2mm.
[0032] As an alternative solution, the screw compressor 10 also comprises a gas replenishment
structure 400 for introducing refrigerant gas from, for example, an economizer, into
the second-stage suction port 250. Specifically, the gas replenishment structure is
arranged at the high-pressure stage housing 220, and the gas replenishment structure
400 is connected to the high-pressure stage suction chamber (i.e., the position of
the second-stage suction port 250). Referring to FIGS. 1, 3, 6, and 7, the refrigerant
gas used for gas replenishment can be first transported to the gas replenishment chamber
420 to be mixed with the discharged gas that has undergone low-pressure/first-stage
compression as soon as possible, and the gas pressure is stabilized in the gas replenishment
chamber 420 before the refrigerant gas enters the second-stage suction port 250, thereby
ensuring the stability of the suction pressure of the high-pressure stage rotor pair
so as to further optimize the compression effect of the second-stage compression.
[0033] In addition, the present invention further provides a refrigeration system configured
with the aforementioned screw compressor. The refrigeration system comprises a cooling
tower, a water chilling unit, and a pumping device, etc. connected through pipelines,
wherein the water chilling unit is composed of the aforementioned screw compressor,
a condenser, a throttling device, an evaporator, and other components connected into
a circuit.
