Abstract:
Screw compressor with a compression chamber that is formed by a compression housing, in which a pair of meshed helical compressor rotors in the form of a screw are rotatably mounted and with a drive motor that is provided with a motor chamber formed by a motor housing, in which a motor shaft is rotatably mounted. The motor shaft drives at least one of the aforementioned two compressor rotors, where the compression housing and the motor housing are connected directly together to form a compressor housing, where the motor chamber and the compression chamber are not sealed off from one another and where the rotor shafts of the compressor rotors, as well as the motor shaft, extend along axial directions that are oblique or transverse to the horizontal plane.

Claim (Index 51):
A method for controlling a vertical screw compressor comprising the steps:\n providing a vertical screw compressor comprising a compression chamber, including an inlet and an outlet, that is formed by a compression housing in which a pair of meshed helical compressor rotors in the form of screws are rotably mounted, rotor shafts of said meshed helical compressor rotors extending parallel to one another along first and second rotational axes, respectively, wherein a non-return valve is provided at the inlet of the compression chamber, a drive motor is provided with a motor chamber formed by a motor housing, in which a motor shaft is rotatably mounted that drives at least one of the aforementioned pair of meshed helical compressor rotors, wherein the compression housing and the motor housing are connected directly to one another to form a compressor housing, wherein the motor chamber and the compression chamber are not sealed off from one another, and wherein the rotor shafts of the compressor rotors extend at an angle with or transverse to a horizontal plane during normal operation of the vertical screw compressor; cooling and lubricating both the drive motor and compressor rotors by providing a fluid to the vertical screw compressor in a single cycle, wherein the fluid is driven through the drive motor and the compressor rotors under a compressor pressure generated by the screw compressor.
