Abstract

A discharge apparatus for a reciprocating compressor. The compressor includes a shell connected to a gas suction conduit for sucking gas, a cylinder in the shell, a compression unit including a piston performing reciprocal movement in the cylinder, a reciprocating motor having an inner stator, an outer stator, and a armature performing reciprocal movement between them, and a frame unit for supporting the compression unit and the reciprocating motor by connecting them. The discharge apparatus includes a first cover member in which a valve body controlling the discharge of compressed gas by switching the cylinder in contained and at least a gas passage is formed, and a second cover member arranged continuously with the first cover member and connected to the gas discharge hole. In this way, the gas compressed by linear reciprocal movement of the piston in the cylinder is discharged smoothly so the reliability of the compressor operation is improved.
