Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a multi-cylinder rotary compressor which can enhance the reliability by improving the compression efficiency/mechanical efficiency. The bearings are fixed on the inner wall of the closed container, the cylinders are fixed to the bearings, and a gap is formed between the respective cylinders and the inner wall of the closed container. The design with the relatively large internal volume of the closed container is possible, and the reliability can be enhanced. Further, improvement in the compression efficiency and the mechanical efficiency can be achieved with the compact multi-cylinder rotary compression element.
