Expt 4 Title: Dismantle & Assemble Hermetically Sealed Compressor

This document summarizes the key components of a hermetically sealed compressor and how they work together. It includes: 1) The main components are the housing, top covers, stator bracket, stators, rotors, valve units, crankshafts, connecting rods, oil pickup tubes, springs, and internal discharge tubes. 2) The motor consists of a stator, rotor, and power cable to drive the piston and cylinder unit which includes the block, discharge tube, crankshaft, and piston. 3) The valve unit uses a discharge valve and suction valve to open and close the valve plates during the suction and discharge processes to move refrigerant through the system.

The suction connector is used to suck the refrigerant into the compressor with the
process and discharge connectors located on opposite sides. Compressed refrigerant is
discharged from the compressor via the discharge connector. The process connector allows
the cooling system to be charged with refrigerant after the compressor has been installed.
This process would usually take place in a final stage at the manufacturer’s assembly line.
The electrical connection can be seen on the outside of the compressor.
Depending upon the type of device being purchased, starting equipment is sometimes
preassembled together with an appropriate protective plastic cover.
The compressor shell is constructed from a steel sheet with the top cover welded
together with the bottom housing. That connection is hermetically sealed, ensuring
that refrigerant cannot leak to the outside. In order to guarantee that the mechanical
unit (motor, cylinder, and valve) of the hermetic compressor remains within the center
of its housing, four springs are used to keep it in its dedicated position. The external
interfaces of the shell include two baseplates that enable the compressor to be
mounted within the appliance.
The motor is of key importance to the compressor and consists of a stator, rotor, and
power cable. It is a priority to ensure that noise levels are kept to a minimum, and the
motor is mounted on springs for this reason which results in reduced levels of vibration.
The stator consists of a stator stack, together with two windings of copper wires. The
stator stack is constructed using sheet metal. The windings are suitably protected to ensure
that damage from loose wires can be avoided. By contrast, the rotor has an iron core, cast
in aluminum.
The provided electrical starting device must be suitable for the individual
compressor. The starting device is responsible for starting the hermetic compressor and
does so by supplying the necessary power to enable the start winding to be activated.
Once the compressor has started to rotate, power is supplied via the motor to the main
winding. A flexible connection to the motor is provided via the power cable.
The piston and cylinder unit contains four distinct elements: a block, discharge tube,
crankshaft, and piston. The discharge tube is mounted upon the block, with an oil pump
mounted at the bottom of the crankshaft. The piston has a piston rod which is connected
via a piston pin. Two discharge chambers are contained within the block and are used to
enable compressed refrigerant to make its way to the discharge connector
The flexibility of the tube itself is increased by turns of the discharge tube. The
crankshaft is securely connected to the rotor, transforming the rotations of the motor
into strokes of the piston. As a result of these piston strokes, the cylinder moves up
and down. It's this movement that allows refrigerant to be sucked in, then
compressed, and finally discharged.
The valve unit makes use of a discharge valve and suction unit, which are both
installed on the main valve plate. The valves assist with opening and closing the valve
plates during the suction and discharge processes.
This action allows the hermetically compressed refrigerant to make its way into the
discharge chambers. Finally, a muffler is used to reduce the noise that is created by the
suction process. It is fitted between the suction connector and the suction side of the pump
unit.
