Abstract
An improved rotor compressor, particularly a screw-type compressor, for compressing a gas is disclosed. The compressor is provided with a housing having an annular drain space surrounding rotor shafts at a location between each shaft bearing and the working space for removing escaping lubricant and gas. The drain space is connected through a drain passage to a closed collecting chamber which is substantially under the intake pressure of the compressor. A return passage is provided for returning gas to at least one of the intake and the working space of the compressor and for returning lubricant to a lubrication circuit.
