Abstract
A scroll compressor includes a non-orbiting scroll having a plurality of radially extending ribs on its rear face. The non-orbiting scroll preferably provides a separating function separating the interior of the sealed housing of the compressor into the discharge and suction pressure chambers. The ribs extend from a central portion of the base of the non-orbiting scroll to its outer peripheral surface. A circumferentially extending rib also connects the plural radially extending ribs.
