Construction and Analysis of Variable Wall Thickness Profile of Double Scroll Teeth of Scroll Compressor

Based on the changing trend of the geometric parameters of the scroll profile of the involute of circle with variable radii, a new type of double scroll teeth profile of scroll compressor composed of involute of circle with variable radii is constructed. The construction process of the baseline is discussed, and the baseline equations are deduced. According to the principle of normal equidistance, the geometric model of variable wall thickness double scroll teeth is established, and the suction volume, tooth thickness, and scroll area of double scroll teeth are compared with those of the double scroll teeth composed of ordinary involute of circle. The results show that: compared with ordinary double scroll teeth with constant thickness, the scroll diameter when two scrolls mesh is reduced and the revolutions of orbiting scroll required in the working process are reduced and it is easy to select better scroll profile through adjusting the changing coefficient of the base circle radius k , which provides a reference for scroll machinery using environment-friendly working fluids.
