In a hermetic compressor in a freezing refrigerating system or an air-conditioning system such as a refrigerator or a showcase, a construction is disclosed for intending to provide a low-noise hermetic compressor by effectively attenuating a pressure pulsation having occurred in a compression chamber with a suction muffler. By this construction, since a muffler coverhas a planar simple shape, the deformation upon molding becomes little and it can come into fully close contact with a muffler main body. Therefore, the pressure pulsation hardly leaks through the connecting portion between the muffler main bodyand the muffler cover. The full silencing effect that the suction mufflerhas is obtained and thereby noise can be reduced more effectively.

Hermetic compressor and freezing air-conditioning system

This invention relates to a hermetic compressor used on a refrigerant cycle such as a refrigerator, and discloses a low noise compressor designed to attenuate a resonance sound in a compression chamber and intake pressure pulsing more operatively at a position adjacent to their sources, which intake pressure pulsing occurs at an intake valve port. In the compressor, a resonance spaceis provided adjacent to the intake valve portthat is closer in distance to a noise source. As a result, noise can be reduced more operatively than muffling functions of an intake mufflerdo. In addition, although acoustic characteristics of the intake muffleramplify noises having specific frequencies, such noises can be attenuated before being amplified.

Hermetic compressor with an improved cylinder head-suction muffler assembly

A sealed electric compressor for use in, for example, an electric refrigerator, generates a little noise and can feed any moving part of its compressing element with refrigerator lubricant. An oil pickup tube is joined by insertion to the lowermost end of a crank shaft and includes a first centrifugal pumping portion and a second centrifugal pumping portion provided continuously and arranged at a smaller angle than that of the first centrifugal pumping portion. The second centrifugal pumping portion arranged at a smaller angle can spin in a pool of the refrigerator lubricant.

Closed type electric compressor

In a hermetic compressor for use on an air-conditioning unit as well as a refrigerating unit such as a refrigerator and a showcase, there is disclosed a constitution designed to provide a silently operated hermetic compressor that has an intake muffler readily assembled thereon. The hermetic compressor including a substantially disk-like elastic member disposed between the intake muffler at an outlet thereof and a cylinder head is provided, in which an outlet orifice of the intake muffler constantly remains pressed against an intake valve port through a gasket.

Closed compressor

A hermetic motor compressor includes a generally spherical casing having a generally spherical side wall and a first downwardly curved bottom wall, an integrated structure accommodated in said casing and having a compression section and a drive section integrally formed with each other, and a plurality of supporting units for elastically supporting the integrated structure. A plurality of legs are secured to the first downwardly curved bottom wall, and each of them is of the same shape as the downwardly curved bottom wall.
