An actuator for a compressor element, the actuator comprising an electrical motor with a motor casing which defines a motor chamber in which a motor rotor is positioned rotatably with the help of one or more motor bearings in relation to a motor stator, whereby the motor stator is built of laminations around which windings are attached and whereby the motor rotor is built of a shaft with laminations, whereby the actuator is further equipped with a cooling circuit for a coolant, wherein the coolant is water, the motor bearings are water-lubricated, the shaft on the motor rotor is made from stainless steel, the windings are embedded in an epoxy resin and a composite sleeve is applied around each of the laminations on the motor rotor and on the motor stator.

Scroll compressor, a vehicle air conditioner and a vehicle are disclosed. The scroll compressor includes a first end cover, a casing and a crankshaft. The casing is provided with a supporting portion having a first bearing mounting portion; the first end cover is provided with a second bearing mounting portion; a first end of the crankshaft is arranged in the first bearing mounting portion through a first bearing; a second end of the crankshaft is arranged in the second bearing mounting portion through a second bearing; and the first bearing mounting portion and the second bearing mounting portion cooperate with each other to form an axial limitation on the crankshaft.

A scroll compressor includes a first scroll member, a second scroll member, and an aerostatic thrust bearing. The aerostatic thrust bearing forms a layer of gas between the second scroll member and a fixed supporting member to support the second scroll member as the second scroll member rotates and/or orbits. Also disclosed is a method of supporting a rotating/orbiting scroll member in a scroll compressor. The method including supplying pressurized gas to an aerostatic thrust bearing such that a layer of gas is formed between the rotating/orbiting scroll member and a fixed supporting member.
