  • This rotor device is particularly intended for compression or expansion of gaseous media in several stages.
  • a characteristic feature of the present invention is that the cross section of the male rotor sections show a common basic profile and that likewise the cross sections of the female rotor sections show a common basic profile. Furthermore, the lands of the female sections are, in a lower pressure stage, provided with addendum portions outside the profile of the lands of the female section in the next higher pressure stage, the grooves of the corresponding male section being provided with recesses or dedendums in their bottoms corresponding to these addendum portions in order to obtain a suction volume corresponding to the gas pressure.
  • the female section of the second stage i.e. the stage with higher pressure
  • the male section shows a basic profile without bottom recesses or dedendums.
  • Another characteristic feature of the invention is that the addendum portions of the female section are located outside the pitch circle of the female section and that the recesses in the grooves of the male section corresponding to these addendum portions are located inside the pitch .circle of the male section.
  • the invention is further characterized in that in each rotor the sections show the same pitch diameter.
  • respective rotor consists of integral rotor sections so that each rotor can be journalled only at its outer ends while the sections of said rotor are mutually sealed.
  • the male rotor is fourthreaded and has a wrap angle for its lands in respective stage below 360. In the low pressure stage, such wrap angle can be lying within the limits 275-325 and preferably be maximum 300". In the high pressure stage such wrap angle can be lying within the limits l50-l90 and preferably be minimum 170.
  • the ratio or relation between rotor length and rotor diameter is in the low pressure stage preferably lying be tween 1.1 and 1.4 and in the high pressure stage between 0.6 and 0.8 and preferably said relation can be about 1.25 and 0.7 in respective stage.
  • the land profiles of the male sections respectively the groove profiles of the female sections are formed by corresponding equal circular arcs in the two stages and that the addendum por- 2,975,963 Patented Mar. 21, 1961 ice.
  • tions of the side section and the recesses of the male section show profiles likewise formed by circular arcs.
  • a further characteristic feature of the invention is that the male and female rotors run with a clearance against each other, which clearance at full meshing between male land and female groove preferably is 0.08-0.1'1 mm. in both the low pressure section and the high pressure sectiori and that the rotors have a common synchronising gear for their rotor sections.
  • Fig. 1 sows a vertical central longitudinal section through a compressor designed according to the invention.
  • Fig. 2 shows the compressor rotors in a horizontal longitudinal section through the compressor in Fig. 1.
  • Fig. 3 shows a transverse section through the rotors in the high pressure side taken on the line '3-3 in Fig. 1.
  • Fig. 4 shows transverse section through the low pressure rotors taken on the line 4-4 in Fig. 1.
  • Fig. 1 shows a two stage compressor.
  • This compressor has a housing consisting of a 'low pressure end 10, an upper shell 12, a lower shell 14 and a high pressure end 16.
  • a low-pressure inlet 18 is arranged in the low pressure end 10 and in the lower shell 14.
  • an intermediate pressure outlet 20 is arranged in the upper shell 12
  • an intermediate pressure inlet 22 is arranged in the lower shell 14
  • a high pressure outlet 24 is arranged in the upper shell 12 and in the high pressure end 16.
  • the upper and lower shells 12 and 14 encircles two working chambers each consisting of two intersecting cylindrical borings in which are arranged a male rotor 26 and a female rotor 28.
  • the high pressure section 32 of the male rotor 26 comprises four helical convex lands 42 located mainly outside the pitch circle of the male rotor44 and the intermediate grooves 46.
  • the high pressure section 36 of the female rotor 28 comprises six helical concave lands located mainly inside the pitch circle 50 of the female rotor and the intermediate grooves 52.
  • the low pressure section of the male rotor 26 comprises likewise four helical concex lands 54 located mainly outside the pitch circle 44 of the male rotor and the intermediate grooves 56 of which each one, however, is provided with a recess 58 inside the pitch circle 44.

  • the cross sections of the female rotor 28 in the low pressure section 34 and the high pressure section 36 are identical except for the addendum portions 62 on the rotor lands in the low pressure section.
  • the pitch angle is the same on both sections of the same rotor.
  • the male rotor is furthermore designed in such a way that in the low pressure section the wrap angle for each land is about 300 and the ratio between section length and section diameter is about 1.25 and in the high pressure section the wrap angle for each land is about 170 and the ratio between section length and section diameter is about 0.7.
