Connecting rod apparatus of hermetic compressor

Abstract

A connecting rod apparatus of a compressor for converting a rotation to a reciprocal sliding by connecting an eccentric portion of a crank shaft and a piston. The connecting rod apparatus has: a bush rotatably connected with the eccentric portion, and having a first connecting portion with a pair of sloping sides at an outer circumference, the sloping sides have a predetermined slope in regard to an axis of the eccentric portion; a connecting rod having a small inner diameter for being connected with a piston pin connected with the piston, the small inner diameter is formed at one end of the connecting rod, and a second connecting portion for being connected with the first connecting portion in a direction of the axis along the sloping sides, the second connecting portion is formed at another end of the connecting rod; and a connecting member for connecting the second connecting portion and the bush to be able to move by an external power.
