Abstract

Abstract A hermetically sealed motor-compressor unit for refrigerators, of vertical axis, comprising a container for said motor compressor unit defining a sump for the gravitational collection of oil therein and a motor compressor unit positioned within said container, said compressor unit comprising a casing defining a plate, a cylinder, silencer portions positioned at the end of said cylinder below said plate, upper support means extending upwardly from said plate, perimetral walls extending upwardly along a portion of the plate and lower support means extending downwardly from the plate supporting said motor compressor in said container; an electric motor supported on said upper support means; spherical caps fastened to said silencer portions to form silencers; a cylinder head defining a suction chamber and delivery chamber interconnected to said silencers; a vertical shaft and a lubricating member disposed on the lower end of said shaft and immersed in said sump.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 147 words
A hermetically sealed motor-compressor unit for refrigerators, of vertical axis, comprising a container for said motor compressor unit defining a sump for the gravitational collection of oil therein and a motor compressor unit positioned within said container, said compressor unit comprising a casing defining a plate, a cylinder, silencer portions positioned at the end of said cylinder below said plate, upper support means extending upwardly from said plate, perimetral walls extending upwardly along a portion of the plate and lower support means extending downwardly from the plate supporting said motor compressor in said container; an electric motor supported on said upper support means; spherical caps fastened to said silencer portions to form silencers; a cylinder head defining a suction chamber and delivery chamber interconnected to said silencers; a vertical shaft and a lubricating member disposed on the lower end of said shaft and immersed in said sump.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 147 words
A hermetically sealed motor-compressor unit for refrigerators, of vertical axis, comprising a container for said motor compressor unit defining a sump for the gravitational collection of oil therein and a motor compressor unit positioned within said container, said compressor unit comprising a casing defining a plate, a cylinder, silencer portions positioned at the end of said cylinder below said plate, upper support means extending upwardly from said plate, perimetral walls extending upwardly along a portion of the plate and lower support means extending downwardly from the plate supporting said motor compressor in said container; an electric motor supported on said upper support means; spherical caps fastened to said silencer portions to form silencers; a cylinder head defining a suction chamber and delivery chamber interconnected to said silencers; a vertical shaft and a lubricating member disposed on the lower end of said shaft and immersed in said sump.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 74 words
A motor-compressor unit as claimed in claim 1, including a perimetral portion without walls, said perimetral portion without walls being connected to the cylinder head and to the silencers, all these elements being partly submrged in said lubricating oil sump, so that said lubricant flows towards the sump by grazing the outer surfaces of said silencers and of said head, to remove from this latter, from the cylinder the heat accumulated in said elements.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 58 words
A motor-compressor unit as claimed in claim 1, including two inclined ribs provided on the casing and connected to said silencers, and along which any oil propelled against the lower part of the casing by the rotating lubrication member is conveyed on to the outer surfaces of said silencers, said silencers being immersed partly in said oil sump.
