A compressor may include a shell assembly, a compression mechanism and a conduit. The shell assembly may include a fitting through which fluid is received from outside of the compressor. The compression mechanism may be disposed within a chamber defined by the shell assembly. The conduit may extend through the chamber between the fitting and a suction inlet of the compression mechanism and transmit at least a portion of the fluid from the fitting to the suction inlet. The conduit may include an inlet that may be spaced apart from the fitting and an outlet that may engage the compression mechanism.

A scroll fluid machine includes fixed and orbiting scrolls which define a compression chamber; a land which divides the compression chamber into first-stage and second-stage compression chambers; a wrap groove defined in a spiral shape along a tip of a fixed wrap of the fixed scroll; an intermediate groove defined in the land; a seal member; and an intermediate seal member. The land includes a first-stage outlet in communication with the first-stage compression chamber and a second-stage inlet in communication with the second-stage compression chamber. The wrap groove includes an outer peripheral wrap groove adjacent to the land on a radially outward side and an inner peripheral wrap groove adjacent to the land on a radially inward side. The intermediate groove is in communication with the outer and inner peripheral wrap grooves. The seal member is fitted in the wrap groove except the outer and inner wrap grooves.

A scroll compressor, and more particularly, to a scroll compressor including a communication groove which may decrease discharge resistance is provided. The scroll compressor may include a fixed scroll having a fixed end plate and a fixed wrap, and an orbiting scroll configured to perform an orbiting movement about the fixed scroll and having an orbiting end plate and an orbiting wrap. A communication groove in the form of a recessed groove may be formed in an inner surface of the orbiting end plate, and a refrigerant may flow through the communication groove according to a state in which the fixed wrap overlaps the communication groove such that there is an effect in that an opening efficiency of a discharge hole is improved at an initial stage of discharge.

A compressor is provided which is configured to allow lubrication of a thrust surface through an oil groove formed in a thrust surface of a fixed scroll. Also, a scroll compressor is provided which smoothly supplies oil to a thrust surface of a fixed scroll by including a fixed scroll having an oil groove formed in the thrust surface of a fixed scroll sidewall, and allows an injection pressure acting on an orbiting scroll in an upward direction to be added by supplying the oil guided to the oil groove to the thrust surface of the fixed scroll such that an overturn moment generated in the orbiting scroll may be offset.

A scroll compressor according to the present disclosure and an air conditioner having the scroll compressor may include a drive motor provided in an inner space of a casing; a rotation shaft coupled to the drive motor; a frame provided on a lower side of the drive motor; a first scroll provided on a lower side of the frame, one side of which is formed with a first wrap; a second scroll in which a second wrap engaged with the first wrap is formed, and the rotation shaft is eccentrically coupled to the second wrap to overlap therewith in a radial direction, a compression chamber is formed between the first scroll and the second scroll while being orbitally moved with respect to the first scroll, and the compression chamber is connected to an evaporator outlet side of the cooling cycle; and an injection unit one end of which is branched from a refrigerant pipe between the condenser and the evaporator, and the other end of which is connected to the compression chamber through the first scroll.

A scroll compressor including an orbiting scroll and a fixed scroll. A compression chamber is formed by combining a fixed-scroll volute of the fixed scroll and an orbiting-scroll volute of the orbiting scroll. Each of sub-discharge ports of the fixed scroll brings any one of a first compression chamber and a second compression chamber of a compression chamber, the first compression chamber being defined by an inward-facing surface of the fixed-scroll volute and an outward-facing surface of the orbiting-scroll volute, the second compression chamber being defined by an outwardfacing surface of the fixed-scroll volute and an inward-facing surface of the orbiting scroll volute, and a discharge side into communication with each other.

A scroll compressor is provided capable of supplying oil stored m an oil storage chamber upward through a rotary shaft to supply the oil lo 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 including a housing, a motor provided in the housing, a rotary shaft configured to be rotated by the motor, an orbiting scroll configured to orbit in conjunction with the rotary shaft, a fixed scroll configured to define a compression chamber together with the orbiting scroll, and a discharge valve disposed on one surface of the fixed scroll and configured to open or close one or more discharge openings of the fixed scroll through which a refrigerant compressed in the compression chamber is discharged, in which the discharge valve includes: a discharge reed plate disposed on one surface of the fixed scroll, and a gasket retainer disposed between one surface of the fixed scroll and the housing and configured to surround the discharge reed plate.

A compressor is provided and may include a shell, a main bearing housing disposed within the shell, a driveshaft, a non-orbiting scroll member, and an orbiting scroll member. The driveshaft may be supported by the main bearing housing. The non-orbiting scroll member may be coupled to the main bearing housing and may include a first lubricant supply path in fluid communication with a lubricant source. The orbiting scroll member may be rotatably coupled to the driveshaft and may be meshingly engaged with the non-orbiting scroll member. The orbiting scroll member may include a recess that is moved between a first position in fluid communication with the first lubricant supply path and a second position fluidly isolated from the first lubricant supply path.

A scroll compressor is provided that may include a first compression chamber, a second compression chamber separated from the first compression chamber, and having a greater compression ratio than the first compression chamber, a first discharge port that communicates with the first compression chamber and provided with a first discharge inlet and a first discharge outlet, and a second discharge port separated from the first discharge port, communicating with the second compression chamber, and provided with a second discharge inlet and a second discharge outlet, the second discharge inlet having a larger sectional area than the first discharge inlet. This configuration may prevent a discharge delay in advance in each compression chamber, and thus, preventing a compression loss.
