Abstract (en)

A hybrid compressor has a first compression mechanism driven only by an external drive source; a second compression mechanism driven only by a built-in electric motor; suction paths for sucking gas to be compressed into the first compression mechanism; communication paths for sucking the gas from the first compression mechanism side into an electric motor side suction chamber; and suction passageways for sucking the gas from the electric motor side suction chamber to the second compression mechanism side. The positions and/or number of the communication paths and/or the suction passageways, and/or the positions and/or number of communication openings, which are openings of the communication paths and opened at the electric motor side suction chamber, and/or suction openings, which are openings of the suction passageways, opened at the electric motor side suction chamber, and located on a side opposite to the side of the communication openings, are limited so that, with respect to at least a part of the gas sucked into the electric motor side suction chamber via the communication paths, a gas flow is formed from the communication openings to the suction openings. In this structure, a built-in electric motor section can be appropriately cooled over a wider area by the sucked gas, so that a rise in temperature of the motor section can be properly suppressed.
