Disclosed herein is a slider adapting apparatus for orbiting vane compressors. A circular vane of an orbiting vane is disposed in an annular space defined in a cylinder. A pair of sliders is coupled with the circular vane for performing reciprocating movement along the annular space while being in tight contact with both ends of an opening formed at the circular vane to seal between compression chambers formed in the annular space. The slider adapting apparatus comprises a gap defined between the sliders, which are spaced apart from each other, and a gap maintaining part for maintaining the gap while increasing and decreasing the gap. Using the slider adapting apparatus, damage to parts and a locking phenomenon due to severe interference between the circular vane and the sliders are prevented, and therefore, a drive unit of the orbiting vane compressor is effectively prevented from suffering overload and catching fire.
