Abstract
To provide a gas compressor in which fretting wear due to vibration of an oil separation filter is prevented to thereby achieve an improvement in durability. A gas compressor is provided with a press-fixing unit for press-fixing end portions of an oil separation filter. As the press-fixing means, for example, it is possible to adopt a construction including an abutment block portion against which the bottom end portion of the oil separation filter abuts, an outer peripheral block portion having a filter accommodating hole into which the oil separation filter is inserted, and a pressurizing plate put over the forward end portion of the oil separation filter and mounted and fixed to the outer peripheral block portion, wherein the forward end portion of the oil separation filter is provided so as to protrude from the filter accommodating hole on the surface of the outer peripheral block portion, and wherein the protruding forward end portion of the oil separation filter is pressurized and bent by the pressurizing plate to undergo elastic deformation.
