Abstract
A vane compressor includes a housing having therein a suction chamber, a discharge chamber having a cover, and a rotor chamber, a rotor having therein a plurality of vane slots, and a plurality of vanes. The housing includes a partition that has a first surface forming the other surface of the rotor chamber and a second surface and separates the rotor chamber from the discharge chamber. An intermediate pressure chamber having a pressure that is lower than the discharge chamber and higher than the suction chamber is formed between the partition and the cover. A part of the second surface and a part of a covering surface of the discharge chamber cover are spaced away from each other by the intermediate pressure chamber. The intermediate pressure chamber is disposed so as to overlap at least a part of the other surface of the rotor chamber.
