Abstract
There is provided a fluid compressor having a horizontal rotation axis. An oil reservoir for a lubrication oil is provided within a sealed casing. A cylinder having both end opening portions rotatably supported by bearings is housed within the casing. A rotor piston is eccentrically supported within the cylinder. A helical blade is wound around the outer periphery of the piston such that it can project from and retreat in the outer periphery of the piston. The cylinder and the piston are coupled by an Oldham mechanism. A gas is taken in a compression chamber defined by the cylinder, piston and blade, and it is compressed. The compressor is provided with a pump member, e.g. a trochoid pump, actuated by the rotation of the piston. The lubrication oil is sucked from the oil reservoir and supplied to slide portions.
