Abstract
A radial vane rotary compressor comprising a cylindrical casing with multiple independent vanes mounted radially on a centrally fixed shaft in the casing. An offset rotating cylindrical rotor (acts as a slider crank mechanism with each vane) drives the vanes, each with pairs of cylindrical slider segments to allow for sealed sliding and rotation of the vanes with respect to the rotor. The casing internal cylindrical wall is undercut slightly to allow for sufficient sealing aria of contact with the cylindrical rotor to separate intake port from discharge port.
Claims6
A radial vane rotary compressor comprising:
- a cylindrical casing with a fixed shaft at its center, intake and discharge ports, and slight undercut between the intake and discharge ports, wherein the undercut is made semi-tangent to rotor radius;
- a plurality of vanes radially mesh mounted on the fixed shaft to form multiple chambers with walls of the said casing;
- an offset cylindrical rotor assembly semi-tangent to the casing and rotating within the undercut in the casing inner body to seal between the intake and discharge ports, wherein said offset cylindrical rotor assembly has a plurality of equally spaced cylindrical cuts equal to the number of vanes and coupled to a drive-through shaft;
- a plurality of pairs of sealing cylindrical segments;
- a plurality of bolts;
- a cover plate;
- wherein the plurality of vanes is driven by the offset cylindrical rotor assembly;
- wherein the plurality of vanes pass through the cylindrical cuts of the offset cylindrical rotor assembly with said sealing cylindrical segments to allow for sealed sliding and rotation of the said vanes with respect to the offset cylindrical rotor assembly;
- wherein the cover plate is mounted on the cylindrical casing to seal the multiple chambers, and the offset cylindrical rotor assembly, using a plurality of said bolts;
- wherein the cylindrical casing has the intake and discharge ports with an appropriate inner extended slot for fluid flow.
