Abstract
Disclosed herein is a compression unit of an orbiting vane compressor. The compression unit comprises a circular operation space formed in a cylinder, the circular operation space having opposite ends, a circular vane disposed in the operation space for performing an orbiting movement, the circular vane having opposite ends, a linear slider disposed in the operation space for performing a linear reciprocating movement while one end of the linear slider is in contact with the end of the circular vane, and a pressurizing member disposed in the operation space adjacent to the other end of the linear slider for applying pressure to the linear slider such that the linear slider is brought into tight contact with the circular vane. Consequently, interference between the inner wall of the cylinder and the circular vane is prevented, and creation of dead volume in the operation space is prevented.
