Abstract
A scroll compressor can include a housing, a rod member, and a nut. The housing can define a first bore. The non-orbiting scroll can include a flange. The flange can define a second bore. The rod member can have a first axial end that is coupled to the housing. The rod member can extend from the first bore and through the second bore to a second axial end of the rod member. The rod member can include at least one set of external threads. The at least one set of external threads can be disposed about the second axial end of the rod member. The nut can be threadably engaged with the second axial end of the rod member. The second bore can be disposed axially between the nut and the housing. The primary forces acting within the rod member are tensile forces, while torsional shear forces are minimized.
