Abstract
A compressor is disclosed. The compressor compressing and discharging a refrigerant sucked into a cylinder includes a cylinder forming a compression space of the refrigerant and having a cylindrical shape; a piston configured to reciprocate in the cylinder along an axial direction and having a cylindrical shape; a suction valve disposed at a front of the piston; a plate disposed in a rear of the piston, the plate comprising a flow groove into which the refrigerant is sucked; and a rod extending along the axial direction, one end of the rod being disposed on the suction valve, and other end of the rod being disposed on the plate.
Claims17
A compressor comprising:
- a cylinder that defines a compression space for compressing a refrigerant;
- a piston configured to reciprocate in the cylinder along an axis of the cylinder and having a first piston end and a second piston end opposite to the first piston end along the axis;
- a suction valve that is disposed in the first piston end of the piston;
- a plate that is disposed at the second piston end of the piston;
- a rod that extends along the axis and has a first rod end and a second rod end opposite to the first rod end along the axis, the first rod end being disposed at the first piston end of the piston and the second rod end being disposed at the plate, a fixing member disposed around the plate;
- and an elastic member comprising (i) an inner portion that is connected to the plate, (ii) an outer portion that is disposed around the inner portion and connected to the fixing member, and (iii) a connection portion that connects the inner portion to the outer portion, wherein the plate defines a flow hole configured to receive the refrigerant, and wherein the plate comprises an extension portion that extends from a circumference of the plate along the axis and is in contact with the inner portion of the elastic member.
