According to one embodiment, a horizontal compressor comprises a container accommodating a compression mechanism unit and an electric motor unit, a first leg fixed to the container near the motor unit, a second leg fixed to an end of the container on the compression mechanism unit side, an accumulator between the legs, and a joint port in the container. The second leg includes a first support portion supporting the container in a horizontal attitude, and a second support portion supporting the container standing in a vertical attitude. The first support portion extends in a direction away from the joint port relative to the second support portion.

Horizontal compressor and refrigeration cycle system

A highly reliable horizontal rotary compressor is provided with a sealed housing, an electric motor, a compression mechanism, a frame which divides the inside of the sealed housing into an electric-motor chamber and a compression-mechanism chamber, and a plurality of bolts that fasten the compression mechanism to the frame. The compression mechanism includes a main bearing fasten to the end surface of a cylinder. A bearing contact-surface of the end surface of the cylinder is in contact with the main bearing, is located closer to the electric motor than a frame contact-surface which is in contact with the frame. The surface roughness of the frame contact-surface is greater than the surface roughness of the bearing contact-surface. The contact-surface of the frame is a single continuous flat surface located above the bolt located at the lowest position among the plurality of bolts.
