A compressor includes a drive shaft having a main shaft and an eccentric portion, and a compression mechanism having a fitted tubular portion into which a fitted shaft portion of the drive shaft is fitted. The fitted shaft portion and the fitted tubular portion slide relative to each other with an oil film interposed between. The fitted tubular portion has first and second sliding surfaces formed as portions of an inner peripheral surface of the fitted tubular portion in the circumferential direction. The second sliding surface has a smaller axial width than the first sliding surface. A sliding portion between the fitted shaft portion and the fitted tubular portion has a gap adjacent to the second sliding surface into which a lubricating oil flows, and an oil retainer to keep the lubricating oil in the gap from flowing out toward an end surface of the fitted tubular portion.

A crankshaft for a rotary compressor comprising a body formed with an oil supply passage; and an eccentric portion, fitted over the body, having a central axis eccentrically disposed relative to a central axis of the body, and provided with an oil outlet hole communicated with the oil supply passage and penetrating an outer peripheral wall of the eccentric portion.

A scroll compressor is provided capable of supplying oil stored in an oil storage chamber upward through a rotary shaft to supply the oil to a compression device and to lubricate a bearing portion. The scroll compressor may include a casing, a drive motor, a rotary shaft, a main frame, a fixed scroll, and an orbiting scroll. A medium pressure chamber may be formed in or at a middle of the main frame, the fixed scroll, and the orbiting scroll. A pocket groove configured to guide oil discharged through the oil hole to the medium pressure chamber may be formed in an upper surface of the orbiting scroll, and a differential pressure path configured to guide the oil guided to the medium pressure chamber to the compression chamber may be provided in the fixed scroll.

A scroll compressor is provided that may prevent an oil-feeding hole from being blocked due to a high pressure refrigerant, which is compressed in compression chambers and introduced into the oil-feeding hole through an oil-feeding slit, by blocking one of both end portions of the oil-feeding slit, adjacent to the compression chambers, when the oil-feeding hole is formed through an outer circumferential surface of a bearing and the oil-feeding slit, which communicates with the oil-feeding hole, is formed on the outer circumferential surface. This may allow for smooth oil supply onto the outer circumferential surface of the bearing through the oil-feeding hole, thereby enhancing a bearing performance. Also, the oil-feeding hole or slit may be formed at a closest position to an oil feeding-required section, not within the section. This may allow for quick oil supply into the oil feeding-required section, resulting in further enhanced bearing performance.

A scroll device has a housing having a fixed scroll plate and an orbiting scroll plate mounted therein on an idler shaft, the fixed scroll plate having a side having a fixed interleaved involute scroll and an outward facing side, the orbiting scroll plate having a side that has an orbiting interleaved involute scroll, an inlet port for the introduction of a working fluid into the device, and a pressure plate positioned adjacent to the outward facing side of the fixed scroll plate.

A compressor (10) includes a compression mechanism (18) and a driveshaft (62) that drives the compression mechanism (18). The driveshaft (62) may include a first axially extending passage (94), a second axially extending passage (96), and a lubricant distribution passage (100). The first and second axially extending passages (94, 96) may be radially offset from each other and may intersect each other at an overlap region (98). The first and second axially extending passages (94, 96) are in fluid communication with each other at the overlap region (98). The lubricant distribution passage (100) may extend from the first axially extending passage (94) through an outer diametrical surface of the driveshaft (62). The lubricant distribution passage (100) may be disposed at a first axial distance (D1) from a first axial end (90) of the driveshaft (62). A first axial end of the overlap region (98) may be disposed at a second axial distance (D2) from the first axial end (90) of the drive shaft (62). The first axial distance (D1) is greater than the second axial distance (D2).

This scroll compressor is provided with a scroll member which has a compression chamber which compresses a work fluid, a housing which houses the scroll member, a second drive-side shaft (72c) which discharges compressed work fluid from the compression chamber and which rotates about an axis with respect to the housing, and a seal member (16) which contacts and forms a seal with the outer peripheral surface X of the second drive-side shaft (72c). On the outer peripheral surface (X) that contacts the seal member (16), the second drive-side shaft (72c) is provided with a surface hardened part (Y).

A pump is described, including: a drive shaft including a rotor; a first housing part and a second housing part, between which a pump chamber is formed, in which the rotor is arranged; a rotary bearing via which the drive shaft is mounted on the first housing part such that it can rotate about its rotational axis; and a passage including a first opening and a second opening, wherein the rotary bearing is arranged between the pump chamber and the first opening, and the second opening of the passage emerges onto the side of the second housing part which faces away from the pump chamber.

An oil supply mechanism comprises: an oil pump device connected to a rotating shaft of a rotating machinery; a main oil supply passage formed in the rotating shaft substantially in the axial direction of the rotating shaft; and a bypass oil passage in communication with the main oil supply passage and allowing a part of lubricating oil in the main oil supply passage to flow out via the bypass oil passage. The bypass oil passage extends in a direction substantially transverse to the rotating shaft. The bypass oil passage is configured such that a radial distance from an outlet of the bypass oil passage to the axis of the rotating shaft is greater than the radius of the rotating shaft.

Provided is a co-rotating scroll compressor comprising a synchronous drive mechanism that can achieve a long life. The compressor comprises a driving side scroll member (90) driven to rotate about a driving side rotation axis CL1, a driven side scroll member (70) driven to rotate about a driven side rotation axis CL2, a hollowed drive shaft (6) that is connected to the driving side scroll member (90), and driven by a motor (5) to rotate, and a driven shaft (20) that is disposed inside the drive shaft (6), and has one end connected to the drive shaft (6) via a first flexible coupling (21) and the other end connected to the driven side scroll member (70) via a second flexible coupling (22).
