A discharge valve retainer (30) for a compressor with at least two arcuately-shaped, annular segments (40b,42b) which segments are joined together. By joining the annular segments together, a retainer structure having a very rigid central portion results, thereby reducing stress and fatigue of the retainer. The discharge ports (34) are arranged in a annular fashion and the suction ports (38) are disposed radially inside the annularly arranged discharge ports. |
