Abstract

A hermetically sealed compressor includes a cylinder forming a compression chamber, and a piston reciprocally mounted in the cylinder for compressing gaseous refrigerant. A mixture of gaseous refrigerant and lubricating oil is conducted via a conduit arrangement to a suction muffler located upstream of the compression chamber. The conduit arrangement includes, at an inlet to the suction muffler, radially inner and outer tubes forming a channel therebetween. Gaseous refrigerant flows into the suction muffler through the inner tube. Lubricating oil traveling radially outwardly of the gaseous refrigerant enters the channel and is discharged from a downstream end of channel and thus does not enter the suction muffler.
