Suction damping case

Disclosed is a suction damping case. A refrigerant introduced into the suction damping case flows for a predetermined period of time at reduced pressure and speed, and then is discharged to the outside of the body, so that a damping function can be made. When the suction damping case is coupled to a rear housing, a hook and an embossing prevents the suction damping case from being separated.
