In a rotary compressor, a lower end plate cover is formed in a flat plate shape, a lower discharge chamber concave portion is formed in a lower end plate to overlap a lower discharge hole side of a lower discharge valve accommodation concave portion, and the lower discharge chamber concave portion is formed in a fan-like range between a diametrical line passing through a center of a sub-bearing unit and a midpoint of a line segment connecting a center of the lower discharge hole and a center of a lower rivet to each other and a diametrical line opened by a pitch angle 90° in a direction of the lower discharge hole about the center of the sub-bearing unit. At least a portion of a refrigerant path hole overlaps the lower discharge chamber concave portion and is disposed at a position communicating with the lower discharge chamber concave portion.

An HVAC system includes a compressor with an inlet port, an outlet port, and a scroll set. The scroll set includes a fixed scroll member and an orbiting scroll member. The fixed scroll member includes a first scroll wrap extending vertically from a base of the fixed scroll wrap. The first scroll wrap has an approximately spiral shape with at least 3.5 rotations from the center to the end of the spiral. The orbiting scroll member includes a second scroll wrap extending vertically from a base of the orbiting scroll wrap. The second scroll wrap has an approximately spiral shape with at least 3.5 rotations from the center to the end of the spiral. The orbiting scroll moves in an elliptical pattern such that fluid entering the inlet port of the compressor is compressed from a first volume to a second volume via movement of the orbiting scroll member.

A gas compressor includes a block part inside which a cylinder chamber is formed; a rotor rotatably housed in the cylinder chamber; and vanes provided on an outer circumferential portion of the rotor. The block part has a pressure supply part configured to supply pressure to backpressure spaces behind the vanes. This pressure supply part has an intermediate-pressure supply part which communicates with each backpressure space from an intake cycle to a compression cycle in the compression chamber, a first high-pressure supply part which communicates with the backpressure space from the compression cycle to a discharge cycle in the compression chamber, and a second high-pressure supply part which is formed between the intermediate-pressure supply part and the first high-pressure supply part independently of the first high-pressure supply part and which communicates with the backpressure space in a middle of the compression cycle in the compression chamber.

An electric compressor includes a cylindrical housing, a rotary shaft accommodated and rotatably supported in the housing, a compression portion compressing refrigerant gas by rotation of the rotary shaft, a stator accommodated in the housing and fixed to the housing, a rotor accommodated in the housing and fixed on the rotary shaft, and a plurality of guide members disposed between the inner peripheral surface of the housing and an outer peripheral surface of a stator core of the stator. A plurality of recesses is recessed in a radial direction of the rotary shaft on the outer peripheral surface of the stator core of the stator and spaced apart from each other in a peripheral direction of the rotary shaft. The guide members are fitted in the respective recesses with a part of the guide members projecting radially outward beyond the outer peripheral surface of the stator core.

An electric compressor includes a housing, a rotary shaft, a compression portion compressing refrigerant gas, a stator, a rotor, and guide members disposed between the housing and the stator and spaced away from each other in a peripheral direction of the rotary shaft. The guide members include an engagement portion projecting in a radially outward direction of the rotary shaft. The housing has in an inner peripheral surface thereof an engagement hole to receive the engagement portion. An electric compressor includes a housing, a rotary shaft, a compression portion compressing refrigerant gas, a stator, a rotor, and guide members disposed between the housing and the stator and spaced away from each other in a peripheral direction of the rotary shaft. An engagement projection is formed projecting radially inwardly from the inner peripheral surface of the housing. The guide members include an engagement hole to receive the engagement projection.

A motor-driven fluid machine has three motor wires. The innermost one of the three motor wires in the radial direction of a rotary shaft on a specific section of an outer end portion of a coil end is defined as a first motor wire. The first motor wire has a first extension, which extends from an inner side toward an outer side in the radial direction of the rotary shaft at a position between the specific section and a downstream side in the extending direction of the motor wires, and a second extension, which is continuous from the first extension and extends from the outer side toward the inner side in the radial direction of the rotary shaft to be connected to a corresponding conductive member.

A motor-driven compressor is installed in a fuel cell vehicle to supply air to a fuel cell. The motor driven compressor includes a rotation shaft, an electric motor, a compression unit that compresses air, a housing that includes a motor chamber and a compression chamber, and a seal member that restricts a flow of a fluid between the motor chamber and the compression chamber. The housing includes an inlet and an outlet. The inlet draws, into the motor chamber, the air-conditioning refrigerant that has passed through the evaporator but has not reached the air-conditioning compressor as a low-temperature refrigerant. The outlet discharges the low-temperature refrigerant, which is drawn from the inlet into the motor chamber, out of the motor chamber.

In the two-cylinder hermetic compressor, a first compression mechanism unit includes a first cylinder and a first piston, and a second compression mechanism unit includes a second cylinder and a second piston. A main bearing is disposed on one surface of the first cylinder, and an intermediate plate is disposed on another surface of the first cylinder. The intermediate plate is disposed on one surface of the second cylinder, and an auxiliary bearing is disposed on another surface of the second cylinder. A shaft is constituted by a main shaft portion which has a rotor attached thereto and is supported by the main bearing, a first eccentric portion having a first piston attached thereto, a second eccentric portion having a second piston attached thereto, and an auxiliary shaft portion supported by the auxiliary bearing. The diameter of the auxiliary shaft portion is set larger than the diameter of the main shaft portion.

A high pressure compressor and a refrigerating cycle device including a high pressure compressor are provided. The high pressure compressor may include a casing in which refrigerant discharged from a compression unit or device is filled into an inner space provided with a drive motor; a suction pipe directly connected to a suction port of the compression unit; a discharge pipe in communication with an inner space of the casing; a first valve provided at the discharge pipe or the suction pipe to control a flow the discharged refrigerant from a high pressure side to a low pressure side when the drive motor is stopped; a bypass pipe connected between a discharge side and a suction side based on the compression device; and a second valve provided at the bypass pipe to move refrigerant at the high pressure side to the low pressure side through the bypass pipe, thereby allowing a differential pressure operation to continue when the compressor is stopped, to enhance energy efficiency as well as allowing a suction pressure and a discharge pressure to rapidly reach an equilibrium pressure during restart so as to efficiently perform the restart.
