A compressor includes three suction pipes. A first center of a first suction pipe, a second center of a second suction pipe, and a third center of a third suction pipe are positioned at vertices of a triangle. A first distance between the first center and a center of a compressor main body is smaller than a second distance between the second center and the center of the compressor main body and a third distance between the third center and the center of the compressor main body. A second flow path cross section and a third flow path cross section are positioned on opposite sides of a center connection line sandwiched therebetween. The first suction pipe is connected to a suction port which is at an uppermost position among three suction ports provided in a case.

The height measured from the bottom surfaces of support legs is set to be 2.5 or more times as great as the outer diameter of the compressor body, the height of the center of gravity measured from the bottom surfaces of the support legs to the center of gravity is set to be &#xbd; or less the overall height, and the support legs are provided in number of four, based on the fulfillment of Rc/cos &#x3b8;&#x3c;Rb&#x3c;L. Here Rb is the support point radius of the compressor body, Rc is the outer radius of the compressor body, L is the distance from a longitudinal central axis of the compressor body to a longitudinal central axis of an accumulator, and &#x3b8; is an angle half the angle formed between the adjacent support legs about the central axis.

Hermetically sealed rotary compressor and refrigeration cycle device

A refrigerant compressor includes a compression unit having a roller and a vane for compressing refrigerant. The vane has a film having first to fourth layers on its metallic base member. The first layer is made of chromium. The second layer is made of chromium and tungsten-carbide. The third layer is made of metal-containing amorphous-carbon containing at least tungsten or tungsten-carbide. The fourth layer is made of non-metal-containing amorphous-carbon containing carbon and hydrogen. In the second layer, chromium content-rate on a first-layer side is larger than on a third-layer side, and tungsten-carbide content-rate on the third-layer side is larger than on the first-layer side. In the third layer, content-rate of the at least tungsten or tungsten-carbide on a second-layer side is larger than on a fourth-layer side. The roller with which an end-edge of the vane slidably-contacts is made of flake graphite cast iron containing molybdenum, nickel and chromium.
