SCROLL COMPRESSOR

摘要

A scroll compressor includes a housing (2F); a fixed scroll fixed in the housing (2F); an orbiting scroll (4) that has an orbiting end plate (41) on which a spiral orbiting wall is provided upright and that is supported in the housing (2F) so as to be able to orbit while being prevented from rotating, in a state where the orbiting wall is engaged with the fixed wall; a suction section that makes refrigerant containing lubricant flow into a suction chamber provided in the housing (2F); and a plurality of supply flow paths (23) that are provided on a sliding surface between the housing (2F) and the orbiting end plate (41) and that are connected to the suction chamber. In the vicinity of an outer end, in a radial direction, of a supply flow path (23) extending toward the suction section, among the plurality of supply flow paths (23), a communication section (43) that always ensures a connection between the suction chamber and the supply flow path (23) is provided on at least one of the housing (2F) and the orbiting end plate (41).
