Abstract
A rotary compressor that may include an upper or outboard bearing above the motor components and, in this case, includes an upper bearing plate having a structure that ensures bearing alignment when press fit with an upper cap and a center shell. In some implementations, a main bearing frame that secures and holds a main bearing has a structure that when press fit with a lower cap and center shell ensure bearing alignment. Some implementations include disposing a hermetic terminal and a discharge port a the side of the upper cap or center shell.
