ABSTRACT:
A refrigerant compressor constructed for the addition of one or more pumping cylinders for the change of capacity. Improved mechanical efficiency is attained by means of a motor-driven eccentric cam imparting linear motion through one or more of the compressor pistons to the compression stroke and wherein the work to reciprocate each piston is assisted by dual out-of-phase compression springs. The cam is configured for producing a predetermined dwell-period when each piston reaches its bottom-dead-center position wherein a maximum gas charge will be inducted into the cylinder bore by the ram velocity effect of the inward moving gas stream. In a like manner the cam design provides piston dwell time at its top-dead-center position wherein an increased gas charge will be expelled per cycle resulting in increased volumetric efficiency.
