COMPRESSED AIR PRODUCTION DEVICE, AND TURBOCHARGER AND INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE EQUIPPED WITH SAME
The purpose of the present invention is to increase the range of the amount of air flow in a low-flow-volume region and prevent a reduction in the range of the amount of air flow even in a high-flow-volume region. A turbocharger (10) is equipped with two air supply passages (51, 52) connected to an inlet of a compressor (30), and an air distribution means (70, 80) for distributing the air flowing in the two air supply passages (51, 52). The two air supply passages (51, 52) include a low-speed air supply passage (51), which has an inlet guide vane (IGV) (40) formed by arranging multiple vanes (41), and a high-speed air supply passage (52), which does not have an IVG. The air distribution means (70, 80) preferentially distributes the air flowing in the two air supply passages (51, 52) to the low-speed air supply passage (51) on a surge-region side, and preferentially distributes the air flowing in the two air supply passages to the high-speed air supply passage (52) on a choke-region side.
The present invention prevents or inhibits, in reverse rotation of a rotor, application of excessive load to a vane etc. due to a lubricating oil (non-compressible fluid) stored in a volume changeable chamber, while avoiding increase in main body size and increase in production cost. This vane pump (1) for compressible fluid is provided with: a housing (10); a rotor (20) that is arranged in the housing (10) so as to be rotatable and that defines a pump chamber (2) between the rotor (20) and the housing (10); and one or more vanes (30) that are held in vane grooves (21) formed in the rotor (20) so as to be movable radially forward and backward and that partition the pump chamber (2) into a plurality of volume changeable chambers (3). The vanes (30) are each provided with a lubricant releasing means (32) that releases, in reverse rotation of the rotor (20), a lubricating oil (L) stored in one volume changeable chamber (3C) into another volume changeable chamber (3A) that is adjacent to the volume changeable chamber (3C) in the forward rotating direction.
