20090074602 | ROTARY TYPE FLUID MACHINE - A blade moves backward/forward to enter four different states, namely a first state in which the tip thereof is in sliding contact with the internal peripheral surface of an external side cylinder part, a second state in which the tip is positioned in the cutaway portion of a ring-shaped piston to thereby place only an external side cylinder chamber at rest, a third state in which the tip is positioned in the cutaway portion of an internal side cylinder part to thereby place only the external side cylinder chamber and an intermediate cylinder chamber at rest, and a whole rest state in which the tip is positioned in a blade groove to thereby place all of the cylinder chambers at rest. | 03-19-2009 |
20090142214 | ROTARY COMPRESSOR - In a compression mechanism of a rotary compressor, a cylinder chamber is defined by a cylinder and a second housing. A back surface side gap is defined between an end plate part of the cylinder and a flat plate part of a first housing. The first housing is provided with a communicating path and a differential pressure regulating valve. When the difference between the suction pressure and the discharge pressure is small, the discharge pressure is introduced through the communicating path to an intermediate gap whereby both an internal gap and the intermediate gap are placed at the same pressure as the discharge pressure. Conversely, when the difference between the discharge pressure and the suction pressure is great, the communicating path is made discontinuous by the differential pressure regulating valve whereby the intermediate gap is placed at an intermediate pressure lower than the discharge pressure. | 06-04-2009 |

The rotary mechanism includes first and second cooperating members, each including an engaging member extending from an end plate, with the cooperating members being arranged to oscillate relative to each in order to change volumes of operation chambers formed between the cooperating members. The annular back pressure chamber is formed on the back surface side of the end plate of the first cooperating member, and communicates with an intermediate operation chamber of the operation chambers to thrust the first cooperating member against the second cooperating member. The intermediate operation chamber is in an intermediate pressure state. The oil passage is arranged to communicate an oil into the back pressure chamber to fill the back pressure chamber with the oil. The rotary mechanism can include a piston and cylinder, or can include a fixed and orbiting scroll. | 12-23-2010 |
