cooling fan 16 flows to an inner portion of the casing 1 and the back face sides of therespective scrolls fan casing 17, and cools the casing 1, thefixed scroll 2, theorbiting scroll 8 and the like. - A description will be given of a detailed configuration of the
orbiting scroll 8 and theback face plate 12 according to the present embodiment in reference toFigs. 2 through 4 . -
Fig. 2 shows the back face of theorbiting scroll 8 according to the present embodiment. Theorbiting scroll 8 is formed with the coolingfin 11 on the back face side of the end plate 9. Further,plural fastening portions 38 fastened to theback face plate 12 are provided at the back face of thescroll 8. Here, the coolingfin 11 and thefastening portion 38 may be integrally formed. Thereby, the flow of the cooling wind between the coolingfins 11 is not hampered by thefastening portion 38, and therefore, theorbiting scroll 8 and theback face plate 11 can be fastened without reducing cooling efficiency of theorbiting scroll 8 and theback face plate 12. - Further, the cooling fin may be provided to not only the
orbiting scroll 8 but theback face plate 12. Thereby, a temperature rise of the back face plate can further be restrained. -
Fig. 3 shows theback face plate 12 fastened to theorbiting scroll 8. Theback face plate 12 is configured by a driving shaft side backface plate 12a integrally formed with theboss portion 14 connected to the drivingshaft 15, and a rotation preventing mechanism side backface plate 12b integrally formed with the auxiliarycrank bearing housing 18b accommodating the plural auxiliary cranks 18. There is constructed a structure in which ahollow portion 39 is provided between the driving shaft side backface plate 12a and the rotation preventing mechanism side backface plate 12b as well as the driving shaft side backface plate 12a and the rotation preventing mechanism side backface plate 12b are not connected in a diameter direction. - In the
back face plate 12, the rotation preventing mechanism side backface plate 12b is connected to the driving shaft side backface plate 12a in a peripheral direction via a connectingportion 12c. When the end plate 9 of theorbiting scroll 8 and theback face plate 12 are deformed by thermal expansion by a compressing operation, the thermal deformation can be absorbed by thehollow portion 39. Therefore, the thermal expansion of the driving shaft side backface plate 12a is not transferred to the rotation preventing mechanism side backface plate 12b, and a strain of the auxiliarycrank bearing housing 18b can be restrained. - Here, the driving shaft side back
face plate 12a may be formed by a material having rigidity lower than that of the rotation preventing mechanism side backface plate 12b. Thereby, more of deformation by the thermal expansion can be absorbed by the driving shaft side backface plate 12a, the strain of the auxiliarycrank bearing housing 18b can be restrained more effectively, and the reliability and the life of the auxiliary crank can be improved further. -
Fig. 4 shows theorbiting scroll 8 fastened with theback face plate 12. The present embodiment is configured such that the coolingfin 11 formed on the back face side of theorbiting scroll 8 is not in contact with the rotation preventing mechanism side backface plate 12b in a state where theorbiting scroll 8 and theback face plate 12 are fastened by thefastening portion 38. On the other hand, at a position opposed to the driving shaft side backface plate 12a, a dimension in an axial direction (longitudinal direction of the driving shaft 15) of the coolingfin 11 is formed to be larger than that at a position opposed to the rotation preventing mechanism backface plate 12b, and the coolingfin 11 is configured to be brought into contact with the driving shaft side backface plate 12a. - Thereby, direct heat transfer from the
orbiting scroll 8 to the rotation preventing mechanism side backface plate 12b can be reduced, a temperature rise of the respective auxiliary crank bearings and the grease in the auxiliary crank bearings can be restrained effectively, and the reliability improvement and the long life can be realized. - On the other hand, the cooling
fin 11 is configured to be brought into contact with the driving shaft side backface plate 12a, and therefore allowing the heat of theorbiting scroll 8 to escape effectively. Even when configured in this way, the driving side backface plate 12a and the rotation preventing mechanism side backface plate 12b are not in contact in a diameter direction, and therefore, the heat transfer to the rotation preventing mechanism side backface plate 12b is not increased. Further, the heat transfer to the rotation preventing mechanism side backface plate 12b can be restrained further by preventing the contact with the coolingfin 11 at the connectingportion 12c. - Further, at the
hollow portion 39 between the driving shaft side backface plate 12a and the rotation preventing mechanism side backface plate 12b, the cooling wind flowing into a space formed between the orbitingscroll 8 and theback face plate 12 flows, and therefore, the temperature rise of the rotation preventing mechanism side backface plate 12b and the auxiliary crank 18 can be restrained while allowing the heat of theorbiting scroll 8 to escape effectively. - As described above, according to the present embodiment, the temperature rise of the rotation preventing mechanism side back
face plate 12b and the auxiliary crank 18 can be restrained while allowing the heat of theorbiting scroll 8 to escape effectively. Further, temperature reduction of the auxiliary crank 18 can be carried out without adding parts, the cost can be reduced, and also a number of working steps (working time) can be reduced since mechanical working portions are reduced. - Although according to the present embodiment, the description has been given by taking up the example of the case of applying the present embodiment to the scroll type air compressor as the scroll type fluid machine, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the present invention may be applied to other scroll type fluid machine of a coolant compressor of compressing a coolant, a vacuum pump and the like. Further, the present invention may be applied to a system of a tank integrated type package compressor or a nitrogen gas generating apparatus having a scroll type fluid machine.
- Any of the embodiments explained above only shows an example of embodying in carrying out the present invention, and a technical range of the present invention is not limitedly interpreted thereby. That is, the present invention can be carried out in various forms without being deviated from the technical thought or the major characteristic.
