Abstract
A compressor may include a shell, a compression mechanism, a bearing housing, a shroud, a stator, and a rotor. The compression mechanism includes a scroll member that is attached to the shell. The shroud is rotatably fixed relative to the shell and attached to the bearing housing. The stator is fixed relative to the shell. The shroud may have an annular body including an inner surface defining a center shroud passage. The stator may have an outer surface defining a stator passage. An outer surface of the rotor and an inner surface of the stator may be spaced apart and define a discharge gap in fluid communication with the center shroud passage and the stator passage. A continuous passage may extend between a top surface of the scroll member and a bottom surface of the shroud and may be in fluid communication with the shroud passage.
