Abstract (en)

A two-stage compression rotary (1) compressor includes a low-stage compressing section (12L) and a high-stage compressing section (12H) housed within a cylindrical sealed housing (10) oriented vertically, a low-stage suction pipe (104) connected to a suction side of the low-stage compressing section (12L) and sucking in a low-pressure refrigerant, a low-stage discharge pipe (105) connected to a discharge side of the low-stage compressing section (12L) and discharging the refrigerant from the low-stage to outside of the sealed housing (10), a high-stage suction pipe (106) connected to a suction side of the high-stage compressing section (12H) and sucking in the refrigerant discharged from the low-stage, a low-pressure connecting pipe (31) that connects the low-stage suction pipe and an accumulator (25), and guides the refrigerant inside the accumulator (25) to a suction side of a low-stage compressing section (12L), and an intermediate connecting pipe (23) that connects the low-stage discharge pipe (105) and the high-stage suction pipe (106), wherein an inner diameter of the low-pressure connecting pipe (31) is larger than an inner diameter of the intermediate connecting pipe (23).
