A scroll type compressor which prevents occurrence of abnormally high pressures due to liquid compression at the time of startup so as to lighten the engine load by providing a projection on the end face of the shaft and a groove in which the projection fits in the end face of the bush supporting a movable scroll member, the projection and groove being arranged so that their abutting faces are inclined a predetermined angle with respect to a line connecting the center of the shaft and the center of the bush in the direction opposite to the rotational direction of the shaft and being positioned relative to each other so that the extension line of the abutting faces passes through the side opposite to the side where the center of the bush is positioned seen from the center of the shaft.
