Abstract
A compressor includes a compression mechanism that compresses low-pressure refrigerant in a compression chamber into high-pressure refrigerant, and an injection pipe arranged to supply intermediate-pressure refrigerant to the compression chamber. A valve assembly is disposable between the compression chamber and the injection pipe. The valve assembly includes an opening forming member that forms an opening, a valve body and a spring member. The valve body moves in accordance with differences between pressure of the refrigerant supplied from the injection pipe and pressure of the refrigerant in the middle of compression in the compression chamber. The valve body blocks the opening when the valve body has moved from a compression chamber side to an injection pipe side. The spring member is disposed on the injection pipe side of the opening. The spring member applies force in a direction of the injection pipe to the valve body.
