Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1983196A1] A scroll compressor has a stop (140) on its eccentric pin (136) to selectively engage a notch (142) in a slider block (138), and prevent the slider block from moving upwardly and contacting a rear surface (60) of the orbiting scroll (24). The present invention prevents this unwanted contact, and the resultant wear.
