An automotive refrigerant compressor (10) according to the present invention comprises a compressor housing (11, 21) that includes at least one bracket (13a-13h, 23a-23d). The bracket (13a-13h, 23a-23d) has a hole (131a-131h, 231a) through which a fastening member, such as a bolt (14) for example, penetrates. A vibroisolating member (15) is provided that includes a cylindrical portion (15a) and an annular flange portion (15b) radially extending from one end of the cylindrical portion (15a). The cylindrical portion (15a) is firmly inserted into the hole (131a-131h, 231a) in the bracket (13a-13h, 23a-23d), with the flange portion (15b) disposed at an outer surface of the bracket (13a-13h, 23a-23d). The flange portion (15b) includes a pair of protrusions (15c) on opposing sides of the flange portion (15b). The protrusions (15c) are inwardly bent at the base thereof so as to fit along a side surface of the bracket (13a-13h, 23a-23d) when the cylindrical portion (15a) of the vibroisolating member (15) is inserted into the hole (131a-131h, 231a). In accordance with this construction, the refrigerant compressor (10) can be easily mounted within the engine compartment of a motor vehicle without having to be concerned with the conventional problem of slipping vibroisolating members (15). Furthermore, when a so-called vibroisolating steel member (150) is used as the vibroisolating member (15) of the present invention, separation of the vibroisolating member's rubber plates (152) from the steel plates (151) can be prevented without having to be concerned with the amount of torque used to tighten the fastening bolt. |
