<p>A vacuum pump (10) has a pump casing (54) including pump chambers (50a-50f) held in fluid communication with each other and arrayed in a longitudinal direction thereof, an inlet port (52a) and an outlet port (52b), a rotational shaft (58) rotatably supported at opposite ends thereof and extending in the longitudinal direction of the pump casing (54), and rotors (60a-60f) housed in the pump chambers (50a-50f) and coupled to the rotational shaft (58). The pump casing (54) includes a first thermally conductive member (72) extending parallel to the rotational shafts (58) substantially the full length of the pump casing (54) in the longitudinal direction thereof, and a second thermally conductive member (74) positioned near an end of the first thermally conductive member (72) at the outlet port (52b) and extending in a transverse direction of the pump casing (54).</p> |
