Provided is a double rotation type scroll expander, aiming at protecting a bearing that supports drive shaft a drive shaft and the like from the heat of a working medium when a working medium introduction hole is provided in the drive shaft. The working medium introduction hole is drilled into the drive shaft such that the high-temperature, high-pressure working medium is supplied to expansion chambers through the working medium introduction hole. An adiabatic sleeve that forms a part of the working medium introduction hole is attached to the drive shaft in an internal region of roller bearings that support the drive shaft and a driven scroll body rotatably. Heat transfer from the working medium to the roller bearings is suppressed by the adiabatic sleeve, whereby the roller bearings are prevented from deteriorating. |
