A device that enhances compressor efficiency by reducing pressure losses in a discharge muffler space into which is discharged a refrigerant compressed by a compression unit. A low-stage discharge muffler space is formed in the shape of a ring around a drive shaft. In the low-stage discharge muffler space, a communication port flow guide is provided so as to cover a predetermined area of an opening of a communication port from a side of a flow path in a reverse direction out of two flow paths in different directions around the drive shaft from a discharge port through which is discharged the refrigerant compressed by a low-stage compression unit to the communication port through which the refrigerant flows out. The communication port flow guide transforms a direction of a flow into a direction of a connecting flow path.

Refrigerant compressor and heat pump apparatus

A refrigerant compressor that enhances compressor efficiency by both reducing an amplitude of pressure pulsations and reducing pressure losses in a discharge muffler space into which is discharged a refrigerant compressed at a compression unit. A low-stage discharge muffler space is formed in the shape of a ring around a drive shaft. In the low-stage discharge muffler space, a discharge port rear guide is provided in the proximity of a discharge port through which is discharged the refrigerant compressed by a low-stage compression unit. The discharge port rear guide is provided at a flow path in one direction out of two flow paths from the discharge port to a communication port in different directions around the drive shaft, and prevents the refrigerant from flowing in that direction, thereby causing the refrigerant to circulate in a forward direction in the ring-shaped discharge muffler space.

A compressor includes a compression mechanism part for compressing refrigerant sucked from an outside of the hermetic container and discharging compressed refrigerant to a discharge space, an electric motor part composed of a stator and a rotor, facing a first space which is at an opposite side of the discharge space with respect to the compression mechanism part in the hermetic container, for driving the compression mechanism part through a main shaft, a passage at an external circumferential side of the compression mechanism part, for connecting the discharge space with the first space, and a fan provided at an end of the rotor, facing the first space. The refrigerant discharged into the discharge space passes through the passage at the external circumferential side of the compression mechanism part to reach the first space, and passes the fan to be discharged to the outside of the hermetic container.

A rotary compressor having a piston provided integrally with a blade is contained in a hermetic vessel which is operated at a suction pressure of the rotary compressor and not to discharge pressure. The rotary compressor includes a compression mechanism portion having a cylinder which includes a suction port formed in a cylinder chamber, a piston which eccentrically revolves in the cylinder, a blade which is integrally formed with the piston and partitions the cylinder chamber into a high pressure chamber and a low pressure chamber, and a driving shaft for revolving the piston. The rotary compressor also includes an electric motor portion for rotating the driving shaft, a hermetic vessel which houses the compression mechanism portion and the electric motor portion and is in communication with the suction port thereby to maintain an interior of the hermetic vessel at a suction pressure atmosphere, and a discharge port formed in the cylinder chamber and in direct communication with an exterior of the hermetic vessel, whereby starting is smoothly performed, a motor having a large starting torque is not required, components such check valves can be avoided, and lubricating oils with stable viscosity can be used such that the compressor operates with environmentally-friendly refrigerants.
