Abstract:
A reciprocating compressor drive for driving a pair of opposed horizontally arranged compressor pistons. The pistons are carried by a pair of coaxial horizontal piston rods which are fixed to a crosshead situated between the piston rods and formed with a vertical slot receiving a slide block connected to a crank pin which is driven by a rotary crank drive. A pair of guide bars, which are parallel to the piston rods, extend through upper and lower bores of the crosshead, these bores carrying suitable bearings which slide along the guide bars. A pressurized lubricating system is provided for lubricating components such as the bearings which slide on the guide bars and the crank pin which is received in the slide block, the crosshead preferably being made of a light-weight material such as a plastic and carrying steel guide strips which slidably engage the slide block, the latter as well as the bearings which engage the guide bars preferably being made of bronze while the guide strips which engage the slide block and the guide bars which engage the bearings are preferably made of steel.

Abstract:
A single-side compression type swash-plate compressor wherein, in order to improve the sliding contact performance on the compression side of the iron or aluminum material used therein, at least that plane of a swash plate (14) which is in sliding contact with a shoe (15b) on the compression space side is coated with a sprayed coating layer comprising a copper alloy containing 0.5-50 % of at least one member selected from the group consisting of at most 40 % lead, at most 30 % tin, at most 0.5 % phosphorus, at most 15 % aluminum, at most 10 % silver, at most 5 % silicon, at most 5 % manganese, at most 5 % chromium, at most 20 % nickel and at most 30 % zinc, and the balance consisting substantially by copper and impurities, while at least that plane of the swash plate (14) which is in sliding contact with a shoe (15a) on the side opposite to the compression space is subjected to electrolytic plating, nonelectrolytic plating, lubricant coating, phosphate coating, or hardening.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To prevent seizure of sliding elements for transmitting the driving force of a swash plate to a piston even if the lubricating conditions are severe, by shaping the flat part of the substantially spherical sliding elements to have a slightly convex curvature. CONSTITUTION: In a swash plate type compressor shown in the Fig, a flat portion 10b of each spherical sliding element 10 is shaped to have a slightly convex, smoothly curved surface 10c having an extremely large radius of curvature, so that the height H 1 is less than 15μm. Since, with such an arrangement, a wedge-shaped clearance, having an extremely small wedge angle that is decreased gradually in a smooth manner, is formed between the curved surface 10c of the sliding element 10 and the surface of a swash plate 8, lubricating oil attached to the surface of the swash plate 8 is readily drawn into the clearance at the time of high-speed operation, so that a film of lubricating oil for preventing direct contact between them is formed. Further, since the contact point of the swash plate 8 and curved surface 10c is changed for each rotation along with swinging motion of the sliding elements 10 and the amount of lubricating oil circulated is increased resultantly, so that the lubricating conditions can be further improved. Thus, it is enabled to protect the sliding elements 10 against seizure. COPYRIGHT: (C)1982,JPO&Japio

PURPOSE: To manufacture the captioned compressor with ease, and assure excellent wear resistance as well as tolerable structure of the compressor of an increase of capability of the compressor due to high speed rotation by sintering sliding parts by compounding ceramics into sintering powder. CONSTITUTION: Sliding parts such as a blade 10 and bearing blocks 6, 7 are sintered and formed. This employs a sintering powder material of iron or phosphor bronze into which ceramics excellent in wear resistance is compounded. A compounding ratio of the ceramics described above is adapted to range from about 1% or more where effect of wear resistance is manifested to about 50% where a property of finishing is not deteriorated. With use of the sintering powder including the ceramics so compounded, sliding parts are sintered. COPYRIGHT: (C)1986,JPO&Japio

Abstract:
An axial multi-piston compressor includes a drive shaft, a cylinder block having cylinder bores formed therein and surrounding the drive shaft, and a plurality of pistons slidably received in the respective cylinder bores, wherein the pistons are successively reciprocated in the cylinder bores by a rotation of the drive shaft so that a suction stroke and a discharge stroke are alternately executed in each of the cylinder bores. During the suction stroke, a fluid is introduced into the cylinder bore concerned, and during the compression stroke, the introduced fluid is compressed and discharged from the cylinder bore concerned, such that a residual part of the compressed fluid is inevitably left in the cylinder bore concerned when the compression stroke is finished. The compressor further includes a rotary valve for allowing the residual part of the compressed fluid to escape from the cylinder bore concerned into two other cylinder bores disposed adjacent to each other and subjected to the compression stroke.
Abstract:
An axial multi-piston type compressor includes: a drive shaft; a cylinder block having cylinder bores surrounding the shaft, a central circular space, and respective radial passages for communicating the bores with the space; pistons slidably received in the respective bores, and a housing associated with the block to define a crank chamber. The pistons are successively reciprocated in the bores by a rotation of the shaft so that a suction stroke and a discharge stroke are alternately executed in each bore. A suction rotary valve is rotationally and slidably received in the space to be cooperated with the passages for successively introducing a fluid into the bores subjected to the suction stroke, through the corresponding passages thereof, and for successively closing the passages of the bores subjected to the compression stroke. A leakage of a compressed fluid occurs at openings of the passages of the bores subjected to the compression stroke, and prevails in a clearance between an outer surface of the valve and an inner surface of the space. The valve includes a circular groove passage formed in the outer surface thereof for recovering the leakage to prevent introduction of the leakage into the crank chamber.

The thrust bearings each comprise a plurality of seats in the form of blind holes formed in end faces of central seating portions formed on the cylinder blocks and a plurality of bearing members each having its one end portion slidably fitted in a corresponding one of the seats. The seats or blind holes are formed in the end face of each central seating portion along the perimeter of the opening of a drive shaft-fitted axial hole formed in the central seating portion and in a circumferentially spaced arrangement. The bearing members each have its other end portion formed with a planar end face and have this planar end face disposed in slidable face-to-face contact with a corresponding end face of the boss of the swash plate.
