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 hermetic electric compressor is capable of efficiently pumping up a necessary amount of lubricating oil even at low-speed rotation and has a simple constitution to provide an excellent workablity in assembling. The hermetic electric compressor includes an oil pump. The oil pump includes (i) a slanting channel formed in the lower portion of a main shaft and slanting from the lower portion to the upper portion thereof outwardly, (ii) a throttle formed at the bottom end of the main shaft and having an inlet port of diameter smaller than the section of the slanting channel at the center thereof, and (iii) a lower communicating passage for providing a communication between the bottom end of a spiral groove and the slanting channel. This constitution is capable of effectively lift the head of the lubricating oil.

Sealed type electrically driven 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.
