ABSTRACT:
A compressor assembly including a compressor mechanism mounted within a hermetically sealed housing. The compressor mechanism includes a crankcase having a suction inlet opening providing communication into a suction cavity within the crankcase. A suction line adaptor is provided for attaching to a suction line of a refrigeration system to introduce suction gas from the exterior of the housing to the suction inlet opening within. The suction line connector includes a fitting mounted to the housing sidewall and having a bore communicating therethrough, and a tube insert extending between the fitting and the suction inlet opening. The tube insert includes annular protuberances at opposite ends thereof, each protuberance having a groove into which an O-ring seal is retained. The opposite ends of the tube insert are sealingly received within the fitting bore and the suction inlet opening, respectively, whereby limited axial, radial, and torsional movement of the compressor mechanism relative to the housing is permitted while maintaining the integrity of the suction tube connector against leakage from the interior of the housing.
