Abstract: A scroll compressor includes a casing having an oil storage space, a fixed scroll disposed inside the casing, an orbiting scroll disposed on one side of the fixed scroll and performing an orbiting motion relative to the fixed scroll so as to form a compression chamber, a discharge cover coupled to another side opposite to the one side of the fixed scroll and having a cover bottom surface, and an oil feeder coupled to the cover bottom surface to face a direction opposite to the fixed scroll, to communicate with the oil storage space. The cover bottom surface is disposed at an inner side of an inner circumference of the oil feeder and defines a discharge hole to communicate with the inner side of the oil feeder.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A scroll compressor is provided that may include an orbiting scroll having an orbiting wrap, and which performs an orbiting motion; and a fixed scroll having a fixed wrap to form a compression chamber including a suction chamber, an intermediate pressure chamber, and a discharge chamber, by being engaged with the orbiting wrap. A wrap thickness of the fixed wrap may be greater than a wrap thickness of the orbiting wrap within a range which forms the suction chamber. With such a configuration, even if the fixed scroll or the orbiting scroll is thermally-expanded, a transformation of the fixed wrap at a suction side may be prevented. This may prevent a gap between the fixed wrap and the orbiting wrap at an opposite side to the suction side, thereby enhancing compression efficiency.
