Abstract

The invention relates to a free piston expander and belongs to the field of low temperature refrigeration. The expander comprises a plate spring, a clearance sealing seat, a heat regenerator, a cold finger, a cold cylinder, a driving rod, an end cover, a tube connector and external equipment compressor. The cold cylinder and the cold finger are of an integrated structure. One or more plate springs are arranged in the cold cylinder. The center of the plate spring is provided with a hole. Both ends of the plate spring are fixed on the cold cylinder. The heat regenerator is positioned in the cold finger. A metal wire braided square hole net is filled in the heat regenerator. The driving rod is arranged at the front end of the heat regenerator. The driving rod extends into the cold cylinder, passes through the center of the plate spring and is fixedly connected with the center of the plate spring. The clearance sealing seat is positioned at the junction of the cold cylinder and an inner cavity of the cold finger. The application of the plate spring takes a rigid supporting effect. A driving motor is arranged in the cold cylinder, so that the energy consumption is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a free piston expander, which belongs to the field of low temperature refrigeration. Background technique [0002] Due to its many advantages, the Stirling refrigerator is currently widely used in space and on the ground, especially in imaging systems such as space infrared, which have high requirements on the vibration and life of the Stirling refrigerator, and its life index has generally reached Years. Such as figure 1 As shown, the Stirling refrigerator includes a compressor, an expander, and an intermediate pipe. During operation, the compressor generates periodically changing pressure waves, which are transmitted to the expander through the intermediate pipe to drive the regenerator cycle in the expander. The reciprocating motion generates cooling capacity in the cold chamber during the isothermal expansion process of the working medium gas movement in the chamber. The motion phase between the pressure wave and the reg...
