A compressor includes a valve base plate, which is arranged between a suction chamber and a compression chamber and has a suction port. The valve base plate includes a sealing surface, a recessed groove, a receiving surface, and a support surface. The sealing surface is flush with a fixing surface and contacts the valve portion in an annular manner. The recessed groove is located at an outer side of the sealing surface and recessed with respect to the fixing surface. The recessed groove includes a bottom portion and separates an edge portion of the valve portion from the bottom portion. The receiving surface is flush with the fixing surface and capable of contacting a distal zone of the valve portion. The support surface is flush with the fixing surface and capable of contacting a middle zone located at an inner side of the sealing surface of the valve portion.

Compressor

A compressor includes a discharge chamber, compressor chamber, valve plate, and discharge reed valve. The valve plate includes a fixing surface, exposed to the discharge chamber, and a discharge port, which communicates the discharge chamber and the compression chamber. The discharge reed valve includes a fixed portion, fixed to the fixing surface, a base portion, separable from the valve plate, and a valve portion, which closes the discharge port. The valve plate includes an annular seal surface, recessed groove, receiving surface, and support surface. The seal surface contacts the valve portion around the discharge port. The recessed groove is arranged in the fixing surface outward from the seal surface. The receiving surface is flush with the fixing surface and contacts a distal region of the valve portion. The support surface is flush with the fixing surface and contacts a central region of the valve portion.
