A compressor is provided and may include a shell, a hub, an insert, and at least one collar. The hub may be disposed within the shell and define an axis of rotation. The hub may include an axially extending aperture. The insert may be disposed within the aperture. The at least one collar may be disposed about the hub.

Compressor and bearing assembly

The present disclosure provides a high-strength thermally insulative partition assembly (e.g., muffler plate) for use in a scroll compressor. The assembly includes at least one metal plate and an insulating region. The insulating region may have at least one insulating material or may be a low-pressure or vacuum chamber. The partition assembly serves to minimize heat transfer between a low-pressure refrigerant on the low-pressure, suction side and a high-pressure, high-temperature refrigerant on the high-pressure, discharge side of the compressor. The insulating region may be sandwiched between multiple metal plates. The insulating region may be coated on the metal plate. The insulating region may also be a preformed component or mask that is coupled to the metal plate via a mechanical interlock system.

Scroll compressor having an insulated high-strength partition assembly

A compressor may include a shell containing a motor, a compression mechanism and a lubricant sump. The compressor may also include first and second temperature sensors, and a control module. The first temperature sensor may be at least partially disposed within the lubricant sump and may measure a first temperature of a lubricant at a first position. The second temperature sensor may be at least partially disposed within the lubricant sump and may measure a second temperature of the lubricant at a second position that is vertically higher than the first position. The control module is in communication with the first and second temperature sensors. The control module may determine a first difference between the first temperature and the second temperature. The control module may determine whether a liquid level of the lubricant in the lubricant sump is below a predetermined level based on the first difference.

Compressor having oil-level sensing system

A compressor includes a shell, a first temperature sensor, a second temperature sensor, and a control module. The shell includes a motor, a compression mechanism and a lubricant sump. The first temperature sensor is at least partially disposed within the shell and configured to measure a first temperature of a lubricant at a first position. The second temperature sensor is at least partially disposed within the shell and configured to measure a second temperature of the lubricant at a second position that is vertically higher than the first position. The control module is in communication with the first and second temperature sensors and configured to determine a first difference between the first temperature and the second temperature. The control module is configured to determine whether a liquid level of the lubricant in the lubricant sump is below a predetermined level based on the first difference.
