ABSTRACT:
A scroll compressor is provided with economizer injection ports, which extend through the wrap of one of the scroll members. Preferably the injection ports are formed through a so-called “hybrid” wrap, which has a varying thickness. The other scroll member is provided with grooves in its base plate. The injection of economizer fluid occurs only during a portion of the orbiting cycle when the injection port and corresponding grooves are aligned with each other. An indentation is formed into the wrap that includes the injection port. The indentation is spaced circumferentially from the injection port. The indentation communicates with the groove, such that refrigerant can pass from the injection port, into the groove, and through the indentation into a compression chamber. This increases the injection time allowing more fluid to be injected into the compression chamber, and provides the scroll compressor designer with greater freedom to achieve desired flow of economizer fluid into the compression chambers.
