Abstract
A reciprocating compressor includes a frame unit disposed in a container; a reciprocating motor disposed in the frame unit; a cylinder disposed in the frame unit; a piston performing a linear reciprocating motion; a valve unit installed at the front of the frame unit and the piston so as to suck/discharge gas; and a front coil spring arranged on the frame unit in order to support the linear reciprocating motion of the piston elastically and prevent breakage of construction parts abutting on the piston when the piston moves over a top dead center.
Claims6
A reciprocating compressor, comprising:
- a container having a gas suction pipe and a gas discharge pipe;
- a frame unit disposed in the container;
- a reciprocating motor secured to the frame unit to generate a driving force;
- a piston arranged so as to perform a linear reciprocating motion with respect to a cylinder by the driving force of the reciprocating motor;
- a valve unit installed at the frame unit so as to discharge gas by using pressure difference generated by the linear reciprocating motion of the piston;
- and
- a front elastic member arranged on the front of the frame unit in order to support the piston elastically and prevent breakage of construction parts abutting on the piston when the piston moves over a top dead center.
