Abstract
A rotary compressor is provided that may include a casing having an oil storage space; a cylinder; a main bearing and a sub bearing; a rotary shaft; a roller having a vane slot and a back pressure chamber; and at least one vane. An oil supply hole that communicates the back pressure chamber with the oil storage space may pass through the main bearing or the sub bearing, or through the roller. Accordingly, as high-pressure oil is supplied directly to a rear end surface of the vane, it is possible to increase efficiency of the compressor by increasing a back pressure on the vane and suppressing a delay in starting the compressor, and it is also possible to reduce collision noise and wear in the vane and the cylinder by suppressing vibration of the vane.
