Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to reciprocating compressors. In one example embodiment, a reciprocating compressor is disclosed including a cylinder, a piston, at least one suction valve, at least one pressure valve, at least one connection chamber, a sequence valve, a sequence valve control unit, and an unloader. The piston moves back and forth in the cylinder in order to form a compression chamber in the cylinder. The at least one suction valve and the at least one pressure valve are provided on the compression chamber. The at least one connection chamber having a connection chamber volume, which is connected to the compression chamber via at least one overflow opening. The sequence valve opens and closes the at least one overflow opening, and the sequence valve control unit controls the sequence valve. The unloader is actuated by an electrically controllable actuator.

Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to packing rings. In one example embodiment, a packing ring is disclosed including first and second axial ring ends, at least three ring segments, and at least three relief openings. The at least three relief openings each have a first relief opening end opening into the radially inside inner circumferential surface of the ring segment. The first relief opening ends of two relief openings arranged adjacent to one another in the circumferential direction are spaced apart from one another at a relief opening circumferential distance. The first relief opening ends are closer in the axial direction to the first axial ring end than to the second axial ring end and are spaced apart at a relief opening axial distance from the first axial ring end, which is 4% to 20% of the axial ring width of the ring segment.

Packaging ring with relief opening

Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to an electromagnetic actuator for actuating a valve of a piston compressor. Power electronics of the actuator are arranged in an actuator housing between a coil and an axial actuator end of the actuator, on which an actuation opening for an actuation element is provided, wherein the power electronics are separated from the coil by a housing wall of the actuator housing, wherein a printed circuit board of the power electronics is arranged on a fastening surface provided on the housing wall, wherein electrical coil contacts of the coil extend through the housing wall and are connected to the printed circuit board.

Electromagnetic actuator

Various aspects of the invention are directed to a triggering device for a quickly triggering extinguishing system for explosion suppression. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the triggering device may include a pawl body having a pawl flank, a catch, at least one electromagnet to transmit an electromagnetic field, and a sliding pin. The sliding pin triggers an extinguishing system for explosion suppression by movement from a blocking position into a release position. In the blocking position, the sliding pin is pushed against the pawl flank of the pawl body by means of the catch and is held in the blocking position by said pawl flank. The pawl body releases the engagement of the catch and the pawl flank, and thereby releases the sliding pin, in response to the at least one electromagnet exerting the electromagnetic field on the pawl body.

Triggering device of an extinguishing system

In order to enable a continuous adjustment of the variable clearance space () of a reciprocating compressor (), a threaded spindle drive with a threaded spindle nut () and a threaded spindle () is provided as an adjusting device (), wherein the threaded spindle nut () is embodied as a plastic nut () with internal thread (), the plastic nut () is arranged with an external thread () on an internal thread () of a nut carrier () of the threaded spindle nut (), and the thread height (y) of the internal thread () of the nut carrier () and the thread height (x) of the external thread () of the threaded spindle () is respectively embodied with 50 to 80% of the radial thickness (d) of the plastic nut () and the plastic thickness is at least 15% of the thread pitch (z) of the internal thread () at least in the region of the thread flanks () of the internal thread () of the plastic nut ().

Adjusting device for an adjusting piston of a variable clearance space of a reciprocating compressor

An invention refers to a lubricant injector, a lubrication system and a method for providing lubricant for a piston machine. The lubricant injector is provided with a lubricant inlet conduit and an outlet opening, through which a lubricant is supplied to an inner space to be lubricated of a piston machine. The outlet opening may be selectively opened and closed by means of a needle valve, which is actuated by a magnet coil. The lubricant injector has a flow sensor suitable for determining the quantity of lubricant delivered through the outlet opening.

Lubrication system for piston machines

In order to prevent working medium from accumulating in the compressor housing () of a piston compressor () in a simple manner by means of a sealing of the piston rod () in the form of sealing medium barrier supplied by a hydraulic unit (), it is provided that a ventilator () and a sealing medium container (), which is partially filled with sealing medium, are provided in the hydraulic unit (), wherein the ventilator () suctions air from the free space of the sealing medium container (), and the free space () in the sealing medium container () is connected via a line () to the compressor housing (), and an opening () is provided at the compressor housing () for connecting the interior of the compressor housing () to a purge gas reservoir ().
